The Brink

Series Premiere. When a coup erupts in Pakistan, three Americans--the U.S. Secretary of State, a lowly Foreign Service officer in Islamabad, and ace Navy fighter pilot & prescription drug dealer--become entwined in an emerging geopolitical crisis.

With President Navarro and Defense Secretary Grey ordering a military response to General Zaman's threats, Walter argues that an air strike could unleash a world war. Meanwhile, Zaman's men drag Alex to an undisclosed location for interrogation.

Alex is tasked by Zaman's half-brother Raja to get a message to Walter--a mission which Alex hopes will save him from being sent to Baghdad. On the aircraft carrier, Zeke and Glenn await their inquiry into the downed drone.

In New Delhi, Walter defies doctor's orders and meets with the Indian Foreign Minister to urge him to withdraw his troops. Zeke contemplates the merits and perils of leading a double life. In Islamabad, Alex tries to deliver a package to Raja.

Zeke and Glenn narrowly escape from two armed men in the tribal region before being picked up by an eccentric British couple. With Fareeda missing, Alex and Rafiq head to her school and encounter a group of girls with nowhere to go.

Ordered to return to DC, Walter runs into Joanne in Tel Aviv, and angles to use her new position to his advantage. Held hostage by Martin and Vanessa, Zeke and Glenn agree to participate in role-playing games in hopes of a release.

Zeke is challenged to a fight; Walter fakes a medical emergency; Alex plots an escape for schoolgirls.

With tensions rising in Islamabad, Walter tries to convince the President to act with caution. On the aircraft carrier, Zeke must deal with the women in his life before he and his fellow pilots get new orders.
