The team decide to help Jesse out, and look for him after he escaped from the set-up, but come up empty-handed. Jesse runs, opening fire on the SUVs as he escapes. It can get you arrested, but its a good way to make a ruckus in a pinch. SPY OBSERVATION: (Michael directs Sam to remove a nearby bicycle's chain and toss it onto power lines) Wrap a metal chain around two power lines and you complete a very powerful electrical circuit. The guys from the SUVs prepare to make a move. Jesse's contact, Freddy, tells Jesse that he was blackmailed, they had pictures of him that they'd take to his wife, and apologizes. Sam realizes that Jesse's been set-up, and the gang work to help him out.

Jesse enters the park to meet his contact, and Sam notices 2 SUVs with blacked out windows approach. Sam is in a car and Michael and Fiona on a nearby balcony waiting for Jesse's arrival. VFOC: Flyover Miami to the park where Jesse is meeting his contact. While working, they get to overhear an important conversation between Jesse and Freddy they get a location to check out, and head to the site with Fiona in tow. Michael and Sam work on the garage listening to the receiver for the bug he set up on Jesse's phone. Michael and Sam get indignant that they are losing their playroom, where they do private work, which Madeline says was making explosions and interrogating people.


Turns out, all she needed was some hands to help renovate the garage into a room for her to rent out. Madeline, new to texting, had sent them a message "Need Help Now" and they came running. They startle Madeline, who is sitting with headphones on. Michael and Sam enter Madeline's house, gun's out. When the guard gets too close, the explosion goes off, giving them the chance to slip out.) (Fiona rigs a trash can explosion to buy her and Michael some more time as a guard gets closer to their location. If a company has just laid off half of its staff, no one asks any questions when it looks like an ex-employee broke in to make a mess. If you can't keep a break in secret, you have to get creative to cover your tracks. (Fiona makes a mess to cover their tracks) Everyone knows spies are good with languages and firearms, but they need to be good storytellers too. Of course, if you have to comb through thousands of phone calls, it is easier said than done. Identifying lines to bug on a PDX is as simple as matching call times from your records to those int he computer. Using a router with upgraded firmware, pros can hack them to make untraceable calls from the comfort of their own homes. SPY OBSERVATION: (Michael breaks into the utility closet) Housed in office utility rooms, a PDX is an office switchboard for a whole company. Fiona picks a lock, and Michael and her enter the building, check the security panel and note they have 90 seconds to do what they came for. Michael and Fiona, lean against the Charger outside Allied Financial, discussing Jesse Fiona asks Michael what he plans to say to Jesse. Jesse has hacked into a PBX box at a Allied Financial to place his calls. As if he expected Michael to want to fix things, Vaughn is prepared with a folder filled with phone records that he hands over to Michael. Vaughn says he can arrange for a flight to a nice remote holding facility, but Michael urges him to allow him to look into Jesse. Vaughn lets Michael know that Jesse is looking for the spy that burned him. Michael and Vaughn discuss Jesse Porter, the spy Michael burned last episode. Sam agrees, but reasserts his belief that Vaughn is a vampire name. Michael feels he needs to follow this road, since his actions have already resulted in one spy being burned. Sam spews reasons why Michael shouldn't be getting involved in the dirty dealings with Management. Sam and Michael talk, while Michael gets dressed for a meeting with Vaughn. As this is a detailed recap, this will contain spoilers, so I've hidden it after a read more button. He has been brought in as recurring, so expect to see a bunch of him this season. You may know him as Officer Tyrone Davis on Third Watch. We meet Jesse Porter, played by Coby Bell. Greetings fans!
