On Hijack S2E4, “Switch”
Written by Thomas Eccleshare, directed by Shaun James Grant
As Sam and Otto try to figure out who caused Freddie’s death, Sam learns there is an asthmatic baby on the train who is very sick. After finding a woman (Jess) who is a doctor to try and help the baby, he works out a deal to stop the train and get the baby off if the authorities will bring John Bailey Brown to him.
Mei suspects a man with a bloody hand might have had something to do with Freddie’s murder, but it is revealed that he panicked earlier and hid a bag of drugs on the train, but wasn’t involved with Freddie.
In London, Daniel calls up Zahra to help him learn about what Sam is doing and investigate the Cheapside Firm further. Meanwhile, Marsha learns that the man she confronted in the last episode was sent by Daniel to protect her. But the agent is seemingly killed by the neighbors who have been wandering around Marsha’s home, setting up their involvement in the hijacking conspiracy.
As Sam prepares to get the baby off the train, he puts a flash drive inside the baby’s bottle as a way to get information to authorities without alerting those behind the hijackers. During the exchange, he also notices a tear in Jess’s jacket that matches a piece of metal in the conductor’s booth where the murder occurred. Sam and Otto deduce that Jess is the hijacker who is working on board.
