Plot summary
While Islamabad explodes with violent demonstrations, the foreign minister announces that he is taking over as prime minister. The U.S. and Russia put Render Safe into action, an operation to take control of Pakistan's nuclear arsenal. The Russian ambassador later informs Elizabeth that Russia has decided to recognize the new regime and will not be fulfilling their part of the operation. The terrorist group captures six nuclear weapons. The U.S. locates the vehicle the terrorists are using and recapture the weapons. Henry's team locates Disah and is able to call in a drone strike on his vehicle, but Jose is wounded.
They hide out in a grocery store. The grocery store owner fetches a doctor to patch up Jose, and the team is able to make it to the extraction point. Elizabeth asks the Russian ambassador about releasing Dmitri's sister, and he proposes exchanging her for a spy that the U.S. is holding. When Elizabeth points out that it is hardly an equitable trade, a spy for an innocent girl, the ambassador suggests including Dmitri in the exchange, implying that he is still alive.
