There is a looming global crisis, which Walter tries to avert with other heads of state via videoconferencing. Zeke and Glenn end up in a compromised state. Alex attempts to make a personal connection with Zaman. Walter seeks to make a deal with Zaman's highest-ranking general; a grounded Zeke and Glenn find a way to pass the time; Rafiq's translation helps Alex determine how to go about implementing Walter's "Plan B."

Alex plans an escape for some Pakistani schoolgirls; Zeke is challenged to a fight; Walter fakes a medical emergency. Walter runs into Joanne in Tel Aviv and tries to use her new position to his advantage.
