USA Network Synopsis
When Section One attempts to thwart the thief of a canister of Cobalt 60, they
lose the Cobalt, but capture one of the world's most fearsome terrorists, Gregor
Kessler. To find the Cobalt 60, Madeline must interrogate Kessler, who successfully
uses his knowledge of Madeline against her. She manages to gain the upper hand
by confronting Kessler with the daughter he never met, but when he kills her in
cold blood and escapes, Madeline must put her life on the line and confront him
alone.
My Synopsis
"Madeline goes head to head with a ruthless terrorist who knows everything about
her--and is determined to use it." This episode was GREAT! The more I watch it,
the more I love it. It's classic Madeline and a favorite among fans of the character.
Alberta was, as always, fantastic, and she got to use a wide range of emotions and
expressions in this one. And the TRs got a cute kiss between Ops and Maddy. Pictures
are, of course, included! This was an episode that made a friend of mine a fan of
the series (and a fan of Madeline). You learn a bit about her history
and the fact that she is absolutely brilliant! Apart from Madeline,
Kessler was such a sinister bad guy. He reminded me of Hannibal. And
the humor! I knew ahead of time who was playing Madeline, but I still
laughed my head off! Any way you look at it, this episode had everything
that makes LFN such a great show.
