Silent War: Episode 6

Episode Summary & Review

Summary

After ditching the seaplane they hijacked, Novin and Zarkova find themselves at the mercy of corrupt police, while Mac and Wyatt take temporary refuge in a local village. Coltrane finally learns the location of the suitcase nukes, but the revelation comes at a high price. Finally, Section 20 tracks down Zaza and the nukes – as well as an unexpected interloper – in a remote compound, and all hell breaks loose. Expecting the worst, Wyatt makes a call back home, while Pavel forces Zarkova to come to terms with what happened to Alpha Group.

Our Take

This one splits the difference between setup and payoff, and mostly it works. The compound raid delivers the action the show does well, and Zarkova’s reckoning with Pavel gives the hour some actual weight. The village interlude drags a bit, but the cliffhanger earns its place. Worth it for fans.
