Archer is bitten in the asp by a poisonous cobra in Turkmenistan and Ray refuses to suck out the taint. Archer hallucinates into a fever-dream cinema montage where he is accompanied by cut-rate James Mason. In the conscious world, Cyril and Ray are in charge of the mission and must locate and trade for anti-venom to save Archer's life. At HQ, Malory worries because the guys are not answering the sat-phone. Lana pitches her usual fit; this time, because Malory refuses to consider sending a black woman into a black-ops mission in misogynistic Turkmenistan. Pam and Cheryl egg on their fight, flinging gurpgork all over the fire. Cut-rate James Mason helps Archer look back on his life and as the guys try to save Archer, will Archer uncover an important memory?
