Back at the Farm, Harry is getting desperate.
Lucky for him, he follows Alex on her morning jog and overhears her tense conversation with Ryan.
Hes surprised to hear Ryan call her out for also having a super-secret cell and begins plotting immediately.

Someone else with something up his sleeve?
Its time to end Alexs time at the Farm, she tells him.
Shes too big a liability.
Turns out Harry and Nimah have similar visions for their little agents.
Our MI6 charmer wants Alex to get Ryan thrown out as well.
Its only a matter of time before Ryan does it to you, he reasons.
The challenge this week is to do some serious digging on the Venezuelan ambassador.
The attack is interesting because of what it elicits in the recruits.
(Now who is too weak, Dayana?)
And Alex and Harry have no problem being the bad guys even to Ryan, it seems.
Alex takes down a security guard and she leaves the embassy with Ryan handcuffed to the guard.
And its sad because we know their demise is inevitable remember how this season started?
While the mission may have been a success, Owen Hall isnt happy with Ryan.
He shows him the security tape from inside the consulate of Ryan and Alex fighting.
Who are you, and what are you really doing here?
he presses his recruit.
Ryan promises Owen he was just trying to protect everything Owen had been working for.
Owen looks very, very confused.
This is how they contact you?
Alex is surprised to learn that Owen isnt involved.
He threatens to have her arrested if she doesnt tell him everything immediately.
Elsewhere, Leon is at Shelby/Janes apartment.
I will work for you, he tells her, upset by what the AIC is asking of him.
He also asks that this be kept a secret from his fake girlfriend because, duh.
Lydia tells them that theyre the new CIA.
Its the people who do what we do who are the real CIA, she promises.
Welcome to the other side.
But Miranda promises her they are going to save the hostages from the air strike.
Except, damnit, you should never trust a terrorist!
Thankfully, Nimah shows up and has a gun pointed at Miranda to hold her in place.
Back at headquarters, Shelby is surprised when the newly minted President Claire Haas walks through her office door.
We need to talk, she tells Shelby.
(Also, like salt in an open wound.)
I cant, because I helped create the rogue group inside the CIA, she admits.
But the air strike begins to launch.
Shelby is in the situation room with Claire Haas and the military.
Thirty seconds until impact… 15 seconds… Shelby cant believe it and quickly gets on the phone with Alex.
With Nimah holding Miranda hostage and the aircrafts turning back, she slips back inside the perimeter.
