After a key witness and a U.S. marshal are ambushed and killed, Maggie and OA must find the man who leaked the information that led to their murders.


  • It's All About Me: Ackerman’s Motive Rant is basically this, combined with envy towards agents like Bell and OA for getting to be real heroes while he’s stuck dealing with people he deems "scumbags and criminals who rat out their friends".
    Maggie: Takes a certain type of animal to prey on the vulnerabilities of the people they’re entrusted to protect, Ackerman.
    Ackerman: I didn’t mean for innocent people to get hurt.
    OA: You going with that for your defense?
    Ackerman: You’re young and unblemished. I wouldn’t expect you to understand this.
    OA: You took an oath, just like us.
    Ackerman: You two get to play heroes every day. I protect scumbags. I give criminals who wanna rat out their friends a second chance. What about me!? What about my second chance!?
    Maggie: Your second chance? Whether your witnesses were criminals at one point or not, they chose to obey the rules and do the right thing. They turned their lives around.
    Ackerman: Can a leopard really change its spots? They chose their fate.
    Maggie: So did you.
