Outline

Edon Demachi reveals to Arianna that they are in $8 million of debt, but he will clear it when paid for the virus. Hoping to utilise Loric’s dislike of his father, Section 20 tracks him down to a strip club to recruit him, and although a firefight breaks out he agrees to take a tracker from Novin.

Mac accepts Coltrane’s offer to send him for officer training. Returning home, the Demachis are met by the Vironi patriarch who calls off the arranged marriage between the families, resulting in Edon and Arianna killing him.

Intercepting the bioweapon buyer in Albania, Mac learns that Zayef and his brother Mahir Hiraji are Bosnian Muslims seeking revenge against the west due to inaction of UN and NATO forces during the Bosnian War, in which they lost their family. The team intercept Mahir and Demachi making the deal on a train to Tirana, but Zayef’s men ambush the train and kill Demachi’s men after they obtain the weapon.

Mac kills an injured Demachi and obtains the weapon’s tracker. Section 20 attack the jihadis and incinerate the virus using explosives, but the brothers escape. Coltrane becomes concerned their decision to abandon the bioweapon means the brothers are pursuing something more dangerous. Arianna Demachi vows to hunt down Section 20 to avenge her husband’s death.
