Summary
Episode 4 turns on a point-blank execution at an airport hangar, where Kyle kills a captured kidnapper after the team fails to reach Joe before she is flown out.
The killing is meant to force out the plane's tail number as the window to stop Joe's extraction closes and her captors move her toward possible transfer to Russia.
Bobby and other teammates are stunned by the cold-blooded move, but the episode frames Kyle as operating under harsher authority and willing to ignore normal interrogation limits.
Nicole Kidman's Kaitlyn delivers the bleakest consequence yet at the end of the episode, warning Joe's husband to prepare for the possibility that she may never return alive.
