The father-and-son saga of "Navi" and "Behrooz" takes center stage here for awhile, with the father trapped in the basement of a parking lot. He's holding his son hostage. What a predicament for everyone. The key is to keep the kid alive so that the mother spills the beans on the operation, since you know the dad won't give it up.

The confrontation finally arrives with the son playing a key role and Jack, looking like he's in a "Mission Impossible" movie, goes through a laundry shoot.

Meanwhile, another surprise element is that Audrey's husband sold that aforementioned building to the terrorists and he's feeling the heat and ready to split. It's up to Audrey to hold the guy in the room until Jack can arrive and interrogate him.

Earlier, there are more interrogations: Curtis, on the "mole" Marianne, and Tony on Dina Ariz.

There are so many episodes left and so little time before those reactors start melting down. In this one, Jack finally confronts the "family man" who has been working with his wife and son to do all the dirty stuff. Tony is pulled back into action although there is little trust in him. Audrey goes to see her husband who is under suspicion. And the mole tries her best to help herself with some dramatic results.

I was going to describe how all of this absolutely doesn't make any sense, but there are so many plot holes that I don't want to waste anymore of my time on this show. The writing has completely gone downhill, this is almost an insult to your viewers.
