The Inside Man - S2 - E9
e.v.e’s launch day minus one and Charlotte is showing herself to be as skilful an actor as she is hacker. Maurice is forced to cash in some old favours, no matter how far flung, or how deep ‘undercover’, to find out who’s really behind the growing web of conspiracy. Meanwhile AJ is having doubts about his friendship with Mark, who seems worryingly distracted and evasive. Not surprising really, after a game-changing revelation that no-one saw coming.
