S1, E104: Going back eight years, we see a younger Hayden-Hoyle making his way to the top of the spy business via an affair with current MI6 chief, Dame Julia Walsh who herself has made a pact with the ambitious Monica Chatwin who is now eyeing the top job. We also see how Ephra once controlled the Stein Empire and Nessa’s consequent abduction in Gaza with Atika (then a translator). Whilst held captive we discover that rather than Atika, Nessa is Kasim’s biological mother. It was in fact her that was raped by Saleh Al-Zahid and we see her captors scheme with regards to how she can serve their cause.
