RECAP:

With Auggie on his way to Baghdad and Joan on leave, Annie is on her own at Langley when she gets some bad news: the body of her former asset, Megan Carr, has been found in Luxembourg. Feeling responsible for Megan, Annie travels there to check it out, unwittingly falling into a trap laid out for her by a vengeful Khalid Ansari. Now a hunted woman, Annie has no choice but to turn to an old friend for help: Eyal.

Luckily, though no longer with Mossad, Eyal is just as eager as Annie to bring Khalid down. Together, the two attempt to locate him by following the money being funneled to him by his father, Omar Ansari. With help from Joan, Annie and Eyal manage to gain access to the club where Omar is handing off money to a courier. But when the handoff doesn't go as hoped, Eyal and Annie find themselves once again Khalid's targets—and this time, there may be no escaping him.

Meanwhile, in Iraq as part of Operation Proper Exit, Auggie helps a fellow wounded soldier make peace with his injuries. And back at Langley, Arthur continues to unravel the truth surrounding the drone strike and the mysterious involvement of Henry Wilcox.

 

PRODUCTION NOTES:

• This episode presented another opportunity for a long-time member of the Covert Affairs family to make their television directing debut — Jamie Barber, who has been the show's Director of Photography since the first season, moved into the director's chair for this episode.
  
  
• With this episode revisiting a city (Zurich) that we've seen Annie operate in before (season one's "No Quarter"), it was crucial for the show to make sure that the portrayal of familiar locales remained consistent — including using the same exact location for the safe house where Annie and Eyal first met two years ago.
  
  
• This episode also featured Auggie on a special assignment with Operation Proper Exit, a real-life program that provides an opportunity for wounded veterans to return overseas and help find closure to that time in their lives. When the writers learned about Operation Proper Exit, they were inspired to highlight such an important program.
