Plot

Scorpion is sent on a secret mission to Djibouti, Africa. Cabe is captured. The Team must save him. While Walter has suspicions about the purpose of the mission and concerns over Paige's interest in new Homeland protégé, Tim Armstrong.

A hefty bonus convinces near-broke Scorpion to accept an atypical job for Homeland Security, to install a satellite communications system in Djibouti, near the US's only Horn of Africa military base, and collaborating with decorated soldier Tim Armstrong. Only on site they discover it's also a cover for Cabe and Tim to sneak in at a South African stolen Middle Eastern archaeological artifacts dealer's stash, to wreck his reputation as the trade finances terrorism. Tim poses as a client, Cabe gets caught, the team must come to their improvised rescue among armed thugs.—KGF Vissers
