Stephen and Yasim return to the Ezard apartment, unaware that an assassin is waiting for them. Russell arrives just in time to save them.

The three agree that Yasim can stay in Russell's hideout and Stephen will go back to work, using TIA to access data on staff at Kellerman-Deloit, the manufacturer of the tainted vaccine. The plan is to target someone at the company who might provide them with inside information.

Meanwhile, Michael is worried about Yasim and Nadir. He meets with Bepa, a Croatian friend who operates several shady businesses, including one forging IDs. Michael wants IDs for the group of refugees he was smuggled in with.

Back at the Ezard apartment, Stephen sweeps for bugs suspecting someone has been in the space. Eleanor arrives, at first angry with him for missing the party to celebrate TIA getting voted in, but then calms down and tries to seduce him. When Stephen reveals his bug sweeper is picking up a signal from her she strips for him. Stephen is confused when she still seems to be transmitting even when naked.

The next day, Stephen uses TIA to pick Kellerman-Deloit worker Caroline Scott as a likely candidate to give information. While at the plant waiting for Caroline, Stephen thinks he sees Michael. Michael has actually been in the plant pursuing his own line of inquiry. Michael is sure he saw Stephen though, and his fears are heightened — is his brother involved in the disappearance of Nadir and Yasim?

Stephen follows Caroline and persuades her to talk. She reveals that for a few weeks the previous year, the vaccine production line had been closed for safety reasons.

Back at Rusell's hideout, Stephen checks to see which vehicles came to the plant while it was shut and isolates four rental cars. The drivers turn out to be biochemists with connections to Cooper, and all are dead.

Meanwhile, Turney discovers that Stephen has gotten rid of his ID tags and decides it's time to bring Eleanor into the secret she's protecting. Stephen returns to the Ezard apartment and is astounded to find a sick refugee in his bed moments before a sack is thrown over his head.
