Sleeper Cell

The Cell’s primary source of funding has suddenly dried up because their enforcer in Mexico has been killed in a car accident. Farik, Darwyn and Christian take a trip down to Tijuana to investigate the interruption in the money supply. After visiting with the Cell’s designated “accountant,” Ziad, it becomes apparent to Farik that his group needs to raise funds from more than just selling thoroughbred racing horses and instead concentrate more on their illicit drug trafficking businesses. Farik and the others meet with Mexican mob boss Felix Ortiz to discuss payments that are owed to them but Felix wants to re-negotiate their agreement to his favor. Farik anticipates this from Felix and draws hidden weapons. Farik kills Felix. When Felix's bodyguard retaliates, Darwyn shoots the bodyguard, saving Farik’s life.”

Farik sends bio-chemical student Eddy Pangetsu (from episode 2) to Vancouver, Canada to bring back anthrax that he has acquired with Ilija as his escort on the flight. When Farik is at LAX, he also observes a moderate religious scholar from Yemen, Abdal Malik arriving inside the terminal. Eddy drives the anthrax back in an RV with a mother and children who pose as his family across the Canadian/U.S. border. Back in Los Angeles, Farik sends Darwyn and Tommy to assassinate Abdal Malik, whose peaceful teachings are turning extremists away from terrorism, but Fuller sends in an FBI decoy to foil the plan. Eddy drives the RV to a deserted canyon but when Farik goes to retrieve the hidden anthrax it is not there. Convinced he has been betrayed, Farik executes Eddy and dumps the RV off the side of the cliff. In the meantime, Christian was sent as a back up assassin and kills Abdal Malik.
