Complete story — includes the ending

A client of Jesse's company asks Michael to rescue her cousin from the local branch of a Yakuza human trafficking ring, and the team goes after the man in charge looking for answers. The gangster is injured when they chase him down, so they bring in Maddie as his nurse while Michael tries to find out where the girl is but he won't talk. Instead, Michael has his mother stage a breakout with the gangster so they can tail him to where the girls are being held, freeing them before they're killed and putting an end to the operation. At the same time, on an official mission for the CIA, Michael is assigned to babysit a top British nuclear scientist at a local conference, to keep him from any adultery that might endanger his status as a CIA asset. With Fi as a distraction, they actually manage to push him back into faithfulness to his wife, which prompts Michael to commit to his relationship with Fi by asking her to move in.
