Burn Notice 4x08

Oh, this is fun! Madeline Westen, Michael’s mother, gets arrested for lighting up a cigarette in a bank’s safety deposit vault. Michael and Jesse panic. How are they going to stop the cops from taking her downtown? She’s already sitting next to the car, explaining that she told the police she put an old photo of her dead husband in her deposit box and forgot where she was... Hahaha! Hilarious! The real point of her incident was that Mike and Jesse were checking the bank’s security, because they need to lift the box from the vault that may contain information about the global conspiracy they are trying to uncover. Meanwhile, Sam and Fiona are supposed to protect a wealthy businessman who is to unveil a new lithium battery that he fears someone is going to steal. Instead, Mexican criminals kidnap his wife, and Fiona, too. While Mike and Sam are trying to find where the Mexicans are holding them, Jesse fails to convince the husband not to release the 10 million dollars ransom. Resourceful as she is, Fiona is able to send a smoke signal through the air conditioning, and overpowers the leader, while Sam takes out one of the guards. The two others criminals are surprised to see Michael at the drop off location instead of the husband with the ransom. With the hostage situation taken care of, Mike and Jesse break into the vault, and find a coded bible inside the box – signed by Simon, the man who committed the acts of terrorism for which Michael was blacklisted, but Michael pretends he has no idea who he is.
