Complete story — includes the ending

Olivia’s team manages to find evidence that clears Locke and prepares her to go on television to dispute the claim. Rowan tells Liv to stop helping Locke or Jake will die. She asks the President to release Jake, but he is shocked to learn that he has no authority over B613. He tells B613 through Cyrus that he will claim Locke as his mistress in exchange for releasing Jake. Mellie later convinces Locke to lie for money. But before she could do it, the President personally appears on television to make that claim. Jake is then released. Through flashbacks, the origins of Olivia's distant relationship with Rowan are revealed - they only met on Sunday for dinner. After Olivia showed interest in Huck, he ordered B613 to kidnap him because Huck told Olivia about B613. She later uncovered the truth about B613 and forced him to release Huck. She canceled the Sunday meeting in disgust. In the present, Jake is only released because Olivia agrees to meet her father on Sundays again; and Huck confronts Olivia with her father being on B613 and asks whether he is "Command" (its leader), which Olivia admits.
