Citadel - Cold Plunge / Chinos
"Cold Plunge" and "Chinos" bring an end to our spies' hiding starting with Abby's (Ashleigh Cummings) foolish decision that puts her family in danger and gets her captured. We get a brawl between Mason Kane (Richard Madden) and Nadia (Priyanka Chopra Jonas) who now knows it was Mason who betrayed Citadel, and we get Bernard (Stanley Tucci) bringing the two spies together with his new CIA friends (Jack Reynor and Lina El Arabi) and Frank Sharpe (Matt Berry) to go on the offensive in a half-assed plan that goes off the rails almost immediately and leaves one of their own bleeding out on the floor of the CIA.
While the characters' distrust and idiocy nearly gets several of them killed, foreshadowing larger issues to come, there are some fun moments here the grocery store shoot-out, Mason and Nadia's fight, the method in which Bernard brings his spies back together, and Hutch's awful plan. We also get one more bombshell for Mason adding fuel to a power keg already about to explode that, if lit, could mean the end of Citadel for good and victory for the families.
