Burn Notice 4x05

Michael Westen has found an obsolete computer tape drive in the wall of killer Kendra. The point of such an old drive, of course, is that the information stored on it is safe – Michael cannot find any device to read it. But now this gorgeous assassin Kendra is tailing Michael. Together with Fiona he lures her into an alley, but she’s too fast even for them. Of course, Michael needs to know why Kendra murdered Kassar who Jesse was investigating before he got black listed. Meanwhile, our team helps out a clinic that is plagued by heroin dealers. Sam and Fiona trace the drugs to the headquarters in a cabaret strip club. Naturally, Sam has no qualms about the surveillance this time. Except that he gets into a fight with the head honcho trying to protect a guy who had some information for them. They found out this Vince Cutler (the guy who played director Billy Walsh on Entourage) from the Bronx took his heroin from a Mexican cartel, and needs to sell very quickly so he can pay them back. That’s the weak spot our friends are going to try and get him. Michael offers Cutler some high-grade pharmaceuticals with which he can spike his heroin. He hopes Cutler will allow him to lace the drugs himself, so he can steal it and have Cutler run for his life from the cartel. But that plan doesn’t work out. It’s Michael’s mother who suggests that the owner of the clinic needs to be seen to scare the dealers away. (I remain impressed by Sharon Gless’ performance.) With the help of some tear gas, car explosions, bombs and our team of snipers, he’s sure to send Cutler’s gang running from town fast! And an incredibly satisfying scene it is! In the end Michael and Sam are also able to kidnap Kendra. I can’t wait for the interrogations!
