"I'm an idiot," Alex realizes, whispering harshly like it matters now if someone's heard them. Henry hardly seems to hear him, thankfully. Well. Not exactly thankfully, because Alex is pretty sure that Henry's having a panic attack.

Alex's attempt to introduce himself at the climate conference results in a very different series of events.

"Oh. It's…just an old song. Not…" "It's not just an old song," Henry says, soft but almost chastising, and Alex feels his heart crawl further up his throat. Like it's trying to make its way to Henry. Like it always does.

While tucked away from the world in the aftermath of the leak sitting at the piano, Henry asks about Alex's favorite song.

It's funny that this is the question that cracks him.

The woman in the tree is sawing at one of cords holding her up. "That's all right. I'm sure you're a very busy man. You look like it." "The hell does that mean?" Wait, Price thinks. Why the hell am I entertaining this?

Two routine missions, from a distance totally unrelated, collide on a small island off the coast of Mexico. Captain Price figures there can't be any harm in bringing a downed pilot along for the ride- if only to keep an eye on her. Olivia's looking for answers.

They both find a little more than they bargained for.

And Simon knows Johnny does it this way as a kind of question—an additional allowance, meant to give Simon the opportunity to leave it at this. Because even with Simon pushing into Johnny's touch, falling into his gravity, Johnny wants to be sure. Wants to let Simon breathe. Wants to give him a chance to walk away.

As if that's possible.

Simon and Johnny finally spend some time alone, unmasked.

Makarov leans into the camera lens, tapping the rim with his knife. "You think they see you yet?" "Maybe. Maybe they've got a shot lined up on yer heid," Soap muses, glancing up toward the catwalk.

Soap considers his options as his friends converge to save him. But there isn't really anything to consider when he realizes just what Makarov has planned.

"Where'd you go?" Simon asks, quiet.

Things come to a head with Makarov.

All very dramatic. All very perfect for Soap, if he's being honest, because Soap is a relentless social butterfly with an alarming fixation on men with chaotic backgrounds. Lethal men especially.

But with some distance and the familiar sound of the helo's blades surrounding him, the uneasy twinge at the back of Gaz's mind is stinging sharper. Warning.

It feels like they've missed something. Something important.

While Soap and Ghost's complicated dance comes reeling to a finale, their friends worry about the possibility that everything is connected in a terrible way.
