The federal authorities capture a high ranking ex-KGB operative, as he enters America, and put him in a maximum security prison. Trout tells Matt that if he is sentenced to stay on jail then the Russians will retaliate on American spies in Russia. The mission he would like the SOF team to take is to break him out. A mission that, if it fails and they are caught, could find them being tried for treason and spending the next 25 years to life behind bars themselves.
