Rule number one: nothing is what it seems.

It’s the first rule you learn in the world of espionage. What you see is never what you get. You scratch the surface and peel the layers. Making an assumption about someone – a mark, a contact, a fellow agent – is the worst mistake one could ever make. You might as well dive headfirst to your death.

“Addie.” The leggy blonde greets her as she approaches her office desk. “I see someone has already served you your tea.”

Adelle doesn’t say anything and merely smiles in response.

“I’ve heard about what happened to your House.” she says with obvious insincerity, “It was quite the shocker.”

Adelle sets down her tea and leans forward, “Let’s do away with pleasantries, Miranda.” She answers, still with a smile on her face, “I supposed Harding informed you why I’m here.”

Adelle raises a brow.

Miranda leans on her desk and crosses her arms across her chest, “It must have been painful, discovering that your faithful lapdog wasn’t as loyal as you had thought. How’s the security of your House these days?”

BROKEN EMPTY PROMISES — Adam (Victor Garber) has not seen or heard from his daughter after walking out on his family almost thirty years ago. He had remade himself as a vintner - and quite a popular one at that - but that success will never be able to erase the fact that he was a horrible husband, and an even horrible father. So it was quite a shock when, almost a year ago, his ex-wife reached out to him to make peace. But before that peace could extend to their daughter, his ex-wife dies.

Three months after her mother’s death, Laura (Olivia Williams) discovers an email from her father, inviting her mother to visit his vineyard in California. Though angry at her late mother for doing such a thing (the man abandoned them, for crying out loud!), curiosity wins over that anger. She takes a much-deserved leave from work, and takes her nine-year-old son on a short vacation in California. She doesn’t know what to expect but what she knows is that she’s going to try to close a very painful chapter in her life.
