In the first of our sweeps episodes, we light the fuse on two explosive storylines: the kidnapping of Betsy in Iraq; and the long-awaited brutal consequences Tom Ryan must face for his adultery with Tiffy. This episode begins with a secret trial and ends in a cliff-hanger as The Unit, including Ryan, hunt for Betsy's kidnappers. A shattered, driven Jonas dominates the episode; but Ryan has his own journey into hell as he embarks on a suicidal plan to rescue Betsy. On the homefront, a desperate Molly wants, as a mother, to appeal to the kidnappers' mercy by going on TV. Unwilling to risk Molly exposing their undercover operation, the Army takes her into custody. Kim, meanwhile, learns that Tiffy has a lethal secret that could jeopardize the rescue mission and their husbands' lives.
