Jason finds Esteban Salazar holding Alton Maxwell at gunpoint and manages to take him out before Alton can be killed. Meanwhile, Kate Wyman is forced to shoot the mole when he tries to run.
As Jason Blaine drives through the streets of Mexico City, he pulls into a parking garage. Kate Wyman tells him that guards are in position, and he is ready to go. Using a satellite tracking system, they discover that Alton Maxwell is on the roof in the north-east corner of Esteban Salazar's complex. On the roof, Alton is still looking for a way to escape the enclosed area. He hears shouts in Mexican, and looks over to see Esteban and some of his thugs looking through doors to find him. He grabs a pipe to use as a weapon and heads away.
Downstairs, two thugs are keeping guard. Suddenly, a car bursts through a wooden door and knocks the two men to the ground. Esteban realises that Javier Medina must have told the FBI about his base. They resolve to go downstairs to deal with Jason. Manuel fires a machine gun at the car, but it appears to have no effect on the bullet-proof glass. However, he heads closer and looks in the car, realising that it was not actually driven, but sent into the building using a crafty device. Momentarily stunned, he is unaware of Jason appearing behind him. The FBI agent strangles Manuel with his own gun, which Jason then removes the cartridge from and throws away.
Kate Wyman identifies which person on her 3-D satellite image is Jason, and helps to guide him through the maze of people. Meanwhile, Jose splits away from Esteban and Luiz. Wyman informs him that Jose is moving towards him, and Jason responds appropriately by placing a marshmellow-cam on a wall. He watches as Jose comes around a corner, pinpointing the moment when he can leave his hiding place to head towards Alton. As he leaves the room, Jason tells Wyman that she is his "flank" on this, and that she should let him know if she sees him coming back. Lisa approaches Wyman and says that she has confirmed that Eric Myers is the traitor. They look to his station and notice that he is missing, just as the computer screens flash worryingly, displaying the message "Server System Breach". The agents discover that Eric is trying to sabotage the mission. Wyman informs Lisa to get some guards and meet her in the server room.
Unfortunately, Jason is now left alone to save Alton. Esteban sends Luiz to search a room, and after the leader departs, Alton knocks Luiz out with his pipe. He takes his gun and runs away. In the server room, Eric is rapidly deleting files. Wyman enters with a gun, and instructs him to stop, or she will shoot him. He runs away, and her shot misses his head by inches. She pursues him, but finds it difficult in the dark confines of the server room. He makes a break for the exit, and Wyman hears him. Following his tracks, she shoots him in the shoulder, and then again in the knee, smashing a pane of glass.
Alton is back on the roof, and looking for a way to climb the fence. Esteban Salazar approaches him from behind, pointing a gun at him. He tells Alton to drop his weapon, and he complies. Jason arrives at the roof just in time to see Esteban holding Alton at gunpoint. As Jason tries to coax Salazar into letting Alton go, Jose climbs some stairs towards the situation. Esteban tells Jason to put the gun down, and as he begins to do so, he shoots a gap pipe, causing steam to flood across the roof. Esteban shoots but his efforts are useless: he cannot see Jason. His bullets run off, and Jason takes the oppertunity: he shoots Salazar in the shoulder twice, then in the leg. He looks over and sees Jose, burnt to death by the steam. Alton looks at Jason thankfully, and the two exchange a nod.
A cacophony of sirens dilute the sound of traffic in the air of Mexico City as Alton Maxwell and Jason Blaine stride away from the scene. Alton picks up his hat, which Jason found when he first discovered his boss missing, and puts it on his head. They walk away from the scene, unnoticed by the police.

Eric Myers: I thought you said you didn't wanna kill me!
Kate Wyman: You're not gonna die; you're just gonna wish you did.
Esteban Salazar: Well, I guess it's decided. You will die with a bullet like Hector. You Americans should have killed me while you had the chance because my brothers always said 'If you kill one Salazar, you better kill us all'.
Alton Maxwell: Nice parking job, Rookie.
