The tenth episode of The Night Agent Season 1 opens with a flashback to the FBI raid on Peter's home. It took place eleven years prior. This was the beginning of the end for his father's career and reputation.

In the present, Peter and Rose are traveling to Camp David in Farr's automobile. They want to thwart the President's assassination attempt. Peter and Rose don't care about Farr's motivations for being a traitor, despite her attempts to defend her part in this. She acknowledges that she made a mistake but is still wants to save the President.

She also reveals that she hired Peter so he can be the fall guy in case things went south. Rose can’t forgive her for ordering the murders of her aunt and uncle. She cautions Peter not to trust Farr again.

They arrive at Camp David and Farr asks them to hide in the trunk of the car while she talks her way into the camp. Farr quickly manages to drive through the inspection without raising suspicions. She heads out to warn Ben while Peter and Rose get out of the car. Unfortunately, Briggs interrupts Farr’s conversation with Ben. Briggs opens fire, killing Ben and injuring Farr. He runs away after spotting Peter. Peter and Rose realize the comms are down but surprisingly Briggs and his team can still communicate with each other.

Arrington, Maddie, and several new agents—some of whom Arrington has never met—then board an Air Force chopper for Camp David. The fact that the new operatives are carrying what appears to be a bomb in a suitcase raises Arrington's suspicions about them. She wants Maddie to alert the President as soon as she sees her when they arrive at Camp David.

While Maddie, her father, and another Secret Service agent enter a safe room, Arrington stays in the background under observation. Maddie thought her father was accompanying her to visit the president, but it turned out that he was actually transporting her to a hidden safe chamber far from the bombing. There, her father apologies for holding her accountable for Sara's demise and makes an effort to explain.

Maddie tries to convince him to do the right thing but unfortunately, her dad is set on following through with the plan. In the end, Maddie tells him she won’t be silent even after the bombing and he allows her to leave the room. In his mind, she would die in the blast and he would use her death to garner sympathy.

Back to Arrington, she overpowers the guy who was supposed to watch her. She realizes that he remotely started the bomb timer and they have less than ten minutes. She hurries to get everyone to safety. Meanwhile, Peter takes Rose to the communication buildings and has her try to get the comms up. He fights off one of Briggs’ men who was manning the house and takes his comms.

Peter rushes to Briggs to try and get him to call off the attack. He overheard through their comms that they have a contingency plan should the first bomb fail. He finally gets to Briggs and they get into a fight. Briggs refuses to surrender or stop the attack. Other army officers find them and start shooting at Peter since they consider him an intruder.

Rose is able to get the comps up just in time to alert the President details not to enter the building. Arrington also manages to save Maddie. The Vice President hears the blast and believes the mission has been accomplished.
