Season 4, Episode 17 - "Sleeping with the Enemy"

30 July, 2000

After a substation is destroyed and Section's own self-destruct sequence is activated, the initial evidence points to Red Cell. But when Birkoff's newest replacement, Kate Quinn (Cindy Dolenc), examines the data further, she concludes that a third party is playing Section and Red Cell off one another. So Operations convinces the head of Red Cell, The Director (Conrad Dunn), to a 'cease fire' with a twist: to guarantee the 'cease fire', the two sides agree to swap their Second-in-Commands: Madeline goes to Red Cell, and Red Cell sends their #2, Satin Tate (Emily Hampshire), a young, pretty former CIA operative. Needless to say, both have ulterior motives: Madeline is at Red Cell to gather intel., while Satin Tate's mission seems to be to try and 'turn' Michael. All the while, both sides are looking for the 'third party' that caused this whole mess in the first place. Meanwhile, Jason Crawford is installed as Kate Quinn's #2.
