A second-generation CIA man, Jai (Sendhil Ramamurthy) is the son of the former Director of the National Clandestine Service, Henry Wilcox, and the onetime protege of current D/NCS Arthur Campbell. Though smooth, savvy, and skilled in the field, Jai has a tendency to alienate his allies, and his longed-for ascendancy at the Agency has stalled. Perhaps it's because he's so determined to emerge from the shadow of his father and climb the CIA ladder that Jai is willing to do whatever it takes-including turning on anyone who stands in his way.
