Episode Overview

Delaney, the syndicate leader, has a tight grip on the waterfront and ensures no witnesses remain as the IMF races against the clock to bring him down before the grand jury convenes in 72 hours. Barney goes undercover within Delaney's operation to disrupt it, while Jim assumes the role of captain on The Orion, a Norse ship tied to a murder committed by Delaney. Casey takes on the identity of the victim's daughter to gather evidence against him. They manage to capture Saunders, Delaney’s assassin, and Barney poses as an operative for Delaney’s associate, Morgan, compelling Saunders to arrange a meeting aboard The Orion. However, Saunders “escapes” and alerts Delaney, leading to Morgan's death. Mr. C, the syndicate's head, is also drawn to the ship and witnesses the murder. He leaves behind a hitman to eliminate Delaney, but just as the police arrive, Delaney strikes a deal to testify in exchange for protection.
