Hello?

- B... Beatrice.

Dad?

Legat Connelly.
Thanks for coming.

Things are moving
pretty fast here.

Go ahead, Amanda.

Nine years ago, five
American civilian contractors

went missing in Tripoli, Libya.

They were probably kidnapped by
one of the many armed militia

running amok after
Gaddafi was deposed

and the Libyan
Civil War broke out.

The search was called
off six years ago,

and all five Americans
were presumed dead,

but one of them just
popped up on our radar.

Bill Cormack. I remember.

We don't know how he escaped,

but Cormack just
resurfaced in Qamar,

the maximum security
prison complex

- just outside of Tripoli.
- My God.

Have you confirmed his identity?

Smitty has a source
inside the prison

who passed along
Cormack's intake photo.

[indistinct shouting]

Cormack was arrested for
theft and vagrancy in Tripoli

but had no form
of identification.

So as of now, the
Libyan authorities

have no idea that they
have a former FBI agent

in their custody.

And it's only a matter of time

before the current regime
finds out his real identity,

at which point they will
sell him off to any number

of hostile powers, and
next thing you know,

Cormack is the star of a
hostage video on YouTube.

[ominous music]

No. No. No, no, no, no.

What's wrong with you?

I told you everything
I know. No!

Oh!

♪

Libya is one of the most

dangerous countries
in the world.

America hasn't had a diplomatic
presence there since Benghazi.

I hear you, but Bill Cormack has

served honorably for 20 years.

He is part of the brotherhood,

so I'm sure you'll agree
that we have to do everything

- possible to get him out.
- I do agree.

But we need to bring the
State Department here,

- official channels.
- No, we can't.

The diplomatic route would
just expose his real identity.

Right now, the priority
is speed and secrecy.

We need a plan to break him out.

We already have one.

Qamar prison, the structure
was first built as a hospital

There was a massacre of inmates
back in the '90s, right?

1997. Over 200 prisoners killed.

The guards have
essentially ceded control

over the yard and cell
blocks to the inmates.

It's one of the most dangerous
prisons in the world.
