I’ve always been interested and super curious about the whole Mk Ultra CIA Human Experiment story and have often found myself reading articles, listening to podcasts or watching the odd rare documentary diving into what is and is not known about the highly illegal but absolutely fascinating events. So a dramatisation of one man’s involvement was sure to get my juices flowing.

Hawkes (Hill Harper) attends a food festival, coerced by Camille (Lesley-Ann Brandt) where one of the food truck explodes. The chef, Derby Chayson (Daniel Bonjour) is dead. Flack (Eddie Cahill) thinks it may have been a terrorist attack. Mac (Gary Sinise) states the position of the truck and the time of the blast would not lead to loss of many lives. Mac finds traces of Tatp, an explosive made from household chemicals, that's why liquids are not allowed on planes. Jo (Sela Ward) comments on Hawkes calling in sick and he should save the explanations for Mac. Jo finds a bottle lid on the floor. Mac indicates the splash pattern shows the blast originated from the side panel, where the propane tank would have been located. The ignition source was the bottle. Mac thinks if they piece together the shrapnel it may tell them something. Regular as clockwork, Lindsay (Anna Belknap) pops up.
