Concluding tonight on Five is the compelling US drama series that focuses on the work of Angela Henson –an FBI agent with a unique talent for seeing through lies. In tonight’s season finale, the murder of Angela’s old nemesis sparks a dramatic investigation that leads the agent ever closer to discovering the truth about her parents. Jack Stillman, the enigmatic ‘fixer’ often at the heart of the FBI’s investigations, this week reveals himself to be involved in the conspiracy surrounding Angela’s parents.

Meeting a mysterious man at midnight on a city rooftop, he hands over the papers he purloined from Jerry (see last week’s episode, ‘The Camera’s Eye’), and with them the key to Lydia and Colin’s freedom. “Their future, once so full of possibility, is now irretrievably in my hands,” reflects the anonymous man. Having completed his work, Stillman tries to leave but is met by two heavies who throw him off the building.

Continuing tonight on Five is the US drama series that focuses on the work of Angela Henson –an FBI agent with a unique talent for seeing through lies. In tonight’s episode, a theft at an art gallery leads the team to an international assassin; and Angela and Jerry’s quest to find the truth about their parents becomes ever more convoluted.

Angela, Leo and Dozer are called to a fashionable art gallery from which controversial artist Gus Walker has had his entire collection stolen on the first day of his new exhibition. After analysing the incomplete surveillance footage from the gallery, Dozer concludes that the recording was stopped during the exhibition launch party on the previous night by somebody with a password. “This was an inside job,” says Angela to the artist and the gallery owner, both of whom deny involvement in the theft.

The case takes a dramatic twist when Leo and Angela pay Walker a visit at home, only to find him lying dead in a pool of blood, surrounded by the missing works of art. “I’m guessing stolen art isn’t an issue any more,” observes Leo. The agents note that only nine of the ten stolen photo collages are in the artist’s flat and conclude that the missing piece is key to the case. Since only one piece was taken away, its importance to the thief must lie in its subject, as opposed to its cash value. “So how do we figure out what it looks like?” asks Angela. “That’s where I come in,” says Dozer.

Continuing tonight on Five is the US drama series that focuses on the work of Angela Henson – an FBI agent with a unique talent for seeing through lies. In tonight’s episode, an old friend of Leo’s is murdered while working undercover, and Angela suspects that the man was a dishonest cop.

While Leo and Dozer are working surveillance on money-launderers Barone and Jackson, they are both surprised when Angela arrives, having cut short her sick leave after being shot (see last week’s episode, ‘Lyin’ Eyes’). She brushes aside their concerns and joins the surveillance operation, watching Barone and Jackson as they wait for a go-between to arrive.

When the contact turns up, Leo recognises him as Blake Walker, an old friend who is now working as an undercover cop. As Blake leaves Barone and Jackson and meets some known Triad members, Angela wonders if he is using the undercover operation as a cover for some nefarious activities of his own. “Your good friend keeps bad company,” she tells Leo, who is irritated that she doubts Blake and tells her to “let it go”. But when they talk to Blake, Angela can tell that he is keeping something from them.

Angela has an important evening ahead as her doctor boyfriend, Dylan, is about to meet her brother, Jerry. But little does she know that Dylan is spying on her for her boss, Gene, who has asked him to retrieve a file from her apartment. “Angela got some papers from an old Korean cleaner,” Gene tells Dylan. “They’re in a bright red folder and I want them.”

At Angela’s apartment, Jerry has spotted the files himself and is keen to look over them, believing them to contain new information about their jailed parents. The documents are in Russian, and Jerry has only just started to read them when Angela goes to answer the doorbell. To Jerry’s horror, the man on the doorstep shoots Angela in the stomach and disappears. As his sister falls to the ground, she can only whisper one word: “Bluebird!”

In tonight’s episode, the disappearance of an opera star implicates a congressman running for re-election; while Angela’s birthday drags up memories from her past.

Francesca Bouchard, a beautiful young opera star, has disappeared. A witness saw her walking out of the theatre after a performance one night, and her clothes were found on a river bank two days later. The FBI gets involved when a wellknown name surfaces in the case – local congressman Wade Keene. A memo written on Keene’s notepaper detailing a meeting in a hotel was found in Francesca’s jacket.

Avoiding his questions about her forthcoming birthday, Angela takes Leo to visit Keene at his campaign office. Keene admits that he vaguely knew the missing girl – he and his wife had met the star after a show – but he denies any further relationship. He then rushes off for a meeting.

Continuing tonight on Five is the US drama series that focuses on the work of Angela Henson – an FBI agent with a unique talent for seeing through people’s lies. In tonight’s episode, Angela and Leo go undercover to bust a drug ring in an affluent country town; and Angela clashes with Gene over his relationship with her mother.

FBI boss Gene Taylor orders Angela and Leo to go undercover in the country town of Westerby in order to smash a drugs ring that is thought to be behind a spate of teenage overdoses. Angela poses as an English teacher in the local high school while Leo takes the job of sports coach, and together they get to know the residents, including Ed, the friendly diner owner. Angela is quick to note Westerby’s affluence: “There’s a suspicious amount of money in this town,” she says.

Angela’s attention is soon focused upon a pair of girls apparently passing drugs around in class. Using the school’s CCTV system, tech expert Dozer catches the girls on camera bothering Zoe, a first year student. Zoe dodges Angela’s questions but Angela soon figures out who is behind the drugs circulating in the school: Zoe’s ne’er-do-well boyfriend, Brad, who works in the local gas station. Angela warns Zoe to stay away from him: “He’s a bad guy – you hang out with a guy like Brad, you end up in jail,” she says. Angela tells her about her own experience of jail when she was a reckless teenager.

Continuing tonight on Five is the US drama series that focuses on the work of Angela Henson – an FBI agent with a unique talent for seeing through people’s lies. This week, Angela tackles a fatherand-son team responsible for a chain of robberies, while her relationship with her mother is put to its ultimate test.

When Angela and her team arrive at the scene of a robbery at a diamond merchant, they suspect the work of a prolific, high-tech criminal gang: this is the latest in a string of big robberies throughout the city. As with the other cases, the robbers escaped before the cops could react to the alarm. This time, however, Dozer notices that they have made a mistake: though they hid from the security cameras, a reflection in a glass panel shows the grainy image of a man’s face. The picture is sent out to the press, and the police have soon received 400 calls relating to the man’s identity.

Continuing tonight on Five is this US drama series focusing on the work of Angela Henson – an FBI agent who works as a human lie detector, divining whether someone is lying by looking into their eyes.This week, a wealthy socialite takes cover in a church after a fatal shooting at her home, and Angela’s brother tries to persuade her to make amends with their mother.

When police are called to the home of socialite Patricia Martin, they are told that the victim, identified as recently released ex-con Frank Mitchum, was accidentally shot by his own gun during a struggle. However, holes soon appear in the self-defence version of events when it transpires that Mitchum was shot outside – which is not where he was found. The mystery deepens further when Patricia vanishes from her home and seeks refuge in a church. If the shooting really was self-defence, why is Patricia running?

Angela and Leo want to get inside the church to speak to Patricia, but the priest is “connected downtown” which makes it surprisingly difficult to get a warrant to enter the building. Undeterred, Angela promises the priest, Father Robert Malone, that she will get inside “one way or another” – and sure enough, it is not long before a warrant is granted thanks to some handy security camera footage proving that Patricia never left the church.
