Alone, undercover and continuing to pose as Michel's lover, Charlie drives his red Mercedes loaded with explosives. Meanwhile, Kurtz masterfully extracts operational details about the drop-off from his prisoner, Michel. Charlie makes her first inroads as a false insert in Michel's very real militia cell. Working with Becker and Kurtz's team at arm's length, Charlie sets out to deliver the Mercedes to Michel's people in Austria. She must hold her nerve and draw on all her improvisational prowess in order to prove herself to the ever-watchful revolutionaries. Following the operation in Austria, Charlie is taken to Germany where she comes face to face with the real Michel. She is tormented by guilt over what will happen to Michel and feels increasingly conflicted about her feelings towards Becker. Her mind swims with differing truths as Michel and Becker become tangled in Charlie's mind. Charlie is ordered by Kurtz to return to London and wait for Michel's people to reach out to her. With Michel's network sure to notice he is missing soon, Kurtz convinces Becker that the only way to deal with Michel is to stage his death. Oblivious and alone, Charlie struggles to reconnect with her old life and fears for what her new existence entails.
