Burn Notice 4x15

Sam and Jesse are heading to Santa Domingo, to get in on the auction, check out security, and steal the list Michael is dying to get his hands on so he can finally find out all the names of the people behind his burn notice. He can’t come, because, “when you’re burned,” as every opening sequence reminds us, “you’re stuck in whatever city they decide to dump you.” So, Michael is quarantined in Miami, and he sure cannot afford raising eyebrows skipping town and heading to the Dominican Republic for three days. Justin Walsh, the, um, “auctioneer,” otherwise known as “covert intelligence thief,” isn’t very forthcoming about his security. He just hints that he’s using a moving loop to keep the list safe. Sam reckons that means Walsh is using a motorcycle relay, with various bikes going round until he has sold the list. To keep track of any bikes circling the neighborhood, Sam and Jesse recruit “field operatives” among the locals for a few bucks, and soon enough figure out the pattern of bikes.

Meanwhile, Michael’s brother Nate happens to be back in town, looking for some cars stolen from friends of his. Of course, the story turns out not that simple. One of the cars contained twenty kilos of heroin. Michael got himself new clients. And Fiona is in on the job. Michael visits an old acquaintance, who helps him to the address of the crew who swiped the car, called Buckwild’s, and asks for a little favor putting the crew out of commission. As is to be expected, things don’t go exactly as planned. The car wasn’t stolen by Buckwild’s crew, but actually by one of the kingpin’s henchmen. Michael is able to get his clients scot free, though, when he finally retrieves the car. Then he and Fiona fly to the Dominican Republic – evading customs – and help Sam and Jesse steal the list, well, actually a flash drive, and rush back to Miami. Now what is Michael going to do with the information?
