Nolan, searching for Irisa, asks a man in a bar if he has seen her. In a flashback we see Nolan's rescue of Irisa and their first moments together in a hospital. When the man insults Irisa, Nolan becomes violent but pauses when someone else points a gun at his head.
2"Loose Ends Unravel"March 28, 2014 (2014-03-28)
The owner of the bar, Lenny, is an old friend of Nolan's, and stops his violent outburst. In a flashback, Nolan takes Irisa with him to keep her out of a refugee camp. Back in the bar, Nolan thinks that Lenny can help him find Irisa and he asks for his help; Lenny puts something in his drink and Nolan collapses.
3"The Watchman"March 28, 2014 (2014-03-28)
Lenny was paid by a Castithan to drug Nolan; the Castithan questions Nolan regarding Irisa. When the Castithan prepares to kill Nolan, Lenny tries to stop him.

Nolan wakes up and recognizes the Castithan as a member of the group from whom he had rescued Irisa. The Castithan asks where Irisa is; Nolan doesn't tell him and is tortured. In flashbacks, Irisa finds a knife and panics as it reminds her the ritual to which she was subjected; Nolan calms her down and teaches her how to use it.
5"The Searcher"March 28, 2014 (2014-03-28)
Nolan plays for time by talking to the Castithan. In flashbacks, a soldier discovers Nolan and Irisa in hiding; Irisa kills him to save Nolan. In the bar, Nolan manages to escape and finds a clue to Irisa's location. He knocks the Castithan unconscious and leaves for Chicago.
