Episode Summary & Review
Summary
Michael must help a prisoner escape from a Russian black site in Cuba, and Fiona and Madeline are tasked with framing a corrupt bureaucrat as part of the plot.
Our Take
A mostly functional hour that runs on spy mechanics rather than character. The Cuba break-out moves fine but feels like a checklist, and Jeffrey Donovan’s weary undercurrent is the only thing suggesting Michael still has doubts worth watching. Fiona and Madeline’s framing job is a nice idea that never gets enough room to breathe. Watchable, just not memorable.
