Following a mysterious phone call, Meg Fitch must collect a large sum of money if she wants to see Amber again. The Pakistani Ambassador must do the unthinkable to get his son back. In the mansion the students are tested by their captors.

After Finley and Dunn meet with the President and First Lady, they soon realize that the Chief of Staff is the next parent sent on a dangerous mission to save his child.

Meanwhile, Meg deals with the aftermath of her actions. At the mansion, Amber deals with the unwanted attention of one of her captors while Beth Anne and Kyle start to get closer.

Gibson uses his wife Janice to gain information about the CIA's covert soldier program. Dunn and Finley go off grid, becoming targets of the CIA when they take drastic measures to get information. Meanwhile, Meg searches for her company's connection to the kidnapping and is willing to put everything on the line to get Amber back.

When Finley and Dunn plot to lure the kidnappers out of hiding with a CIA file as bait, Finley comes face to face with one of the kidnappers looking to settle a score.

Gibson needs more time for Jonas to finish the serum and so contacts another parent, a neo-Nazi who quickly sets off with half a brick of plastic explosive. The FBI manage to trace Gibson's call to its destination and they soon surround the kidnap house. Throughout it all, Gibson seems calm and determined, as if his plan is rolling out exactly as planned.
