The Pentagon receives word that a terrorist ally surfaced in Uzbekistan. McNulty and his staff must move quickly to capture him while they have the opportunity to do so. Meanwhile, JT has a run in with Samantha Liston, a woman from his past who now ranks above him. As the mission is set for Uzbekistan, JT must send his old unit into harm's way.
Jim Tisnewski and Colonel McNulty lead the force as the Pentagon intelligence deals with conflicts at home as well as abroad.
As viewers witness the decisions and execution of these decisions, often crises that are life-and-passing situations, the staff works for the safety and security of mankind as well as each other.
