This episode combines all the great aspects of The Unit. It has personal drama (needing to cover nursing home bills at $72,000+, which isn't possible on an Unit member's military salary). It has a mission ending in a very cool twist. Its best feature, though, has to be the start of a continuing story line with Lee Tergesen (HBO OZ, inmate #97B412 Tobias Beecher) as a former unit member who is now rogue. Mr. Tergesen is a wonderful actor to play this role, which is a good follow to his outstanding work in OZ. I look forward to this story line and hope the writers / producers keep it going for several seasons.
This episode clearly makes The Unit as good as JAG. They aren't equal as they are special in their own ways. If you loved JAG, this episode is for you.moreless
A former member of the Unit is locked up in a Bulgarian prison and Jonas & his team must go to help him escape in order to find one of the world's leading arms dealers. On the home front, the women meet a young man who hopes to be part of the unit someday. However, in order to get extra money to take care of her aging mother, Molly takes a one time recruiting job to hire the man away from the military. Needless to say, members of the Unit family are none to pleased at Molly's new job.moreless

Goof: At the beginning of this episode, when the prison gate opens the wall moves with the gate.
-
13 minutes and 53 seconds into the show, a camera operator is visible for a split second while they are in the warden's office.
-
In the beginning, the note that the Bulgarian prisoner slips to "The Canadian" which is picked up by Brown, does actually say "Take me with you", but in Turkish. Bulgarians speak Bulgarian. Moreover, the Bulgarian alphabet is not Latin, it's Cyrillic.
