Outline

Stonebridge is saved by two Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) operatives Faber (Dustin Clare) and Mason (Leo Gregory), who were working undercover to rendition Shiro to the United States.

Locke allows them to continue their mission if they aid Section 20 to stop the vanadium shipment in a depot the Yakuza are using as a front. When they covertly enter the depot, Mason and Faber compromise the mission to attempt to kill Shiro, as it is their actual mission.

The rest of the team chase two trucks with the vanadium. After one is destroyed, the Yakuza park the second and ambush Section 20. Richmond draws out the Yakuza so Martinez can destroy the second truck.

Locke learns from Shiro (before he is killed by the CIA agents) that the trucks were a diversion; the vanadium is already bound for North Korea.

Furthermore, Richmond is shot and captured by Mei. Scott and Finn escape to safety on a fisherboat. Scott, now hearing of Richmond’s capture, races to rescue her, but is devastated to find her dead on a dirt road.
