Recap

Angela is in a disciplinary meeting regarding the failed mission in Turkey. Her department is shut down. Angela doesn't believe Pine gave her wrong information. Pine reconnects with her, telling her he and Roper and the gang are in Cairo.

Roper gets some important documents and puts then in a safe in their room. At breakfast Roper asks Pine if he's ever been to Cairo. Pine says no.

Caroline returns, but only because Roper and Sandy want her to spy on Jed. She and Jed leave while Roper and Pine continue discussing business.

It's Steadman who is able to get Tabby out of the room by telling him Roper has a package at the front desk that needs to be picked up. Angela is able to escape.

Back at the casino, Hamid is getting pretty drunk and betting poorly. Pine is trying to babysit him, trying to impress Roper. Hamid can barely stand. Roper isn't happy and orders Hamid to go home to rest up for the big day tomorrow. Pine takes him home. Jed makes a bad mistake by telling Roper she thinks Sandy should take Hamid home instead of Pine. 

At Hamid's place, Pine fixes him a drink and drugs it up. Pine asks Hamid if he killed Sophie, then Hamid remembers who Pine was. Pine gets more answers about who killed her, then he kills him.

Roper lays it out, but Pine plays dumb. Roper regrets not listening to Corky. He demands information from Pine who refuses to tell him anything. Roper plays the Jed card, shows him a picture of her beat up and bloody. This sets Pine off. Roper would kill Pine, but they need Pine's retina image to complete the deal. Roper tells him Jed's life depends on his performance.

Steadman who followed the convoy to the warehouse realizes Pine's cover is blown when he comes out of the room with a gun to his back. He warns Angela to leave now. Frisky is on his way to Angela's room with Jed.
