Mission: Impossible

S07E16 The Question

Nicholas Varsi, an assassin, has been apprehended but insists he wants to defect and share details of his mission with the FIS, provided he receives safe asylum. However, there's a concern that the FIS might have a mole, and Varsi could be feeding them false information. To determine his true intentions, the IMF steps in. Jim and Willy stage a breakout, with Jim posing as an agent from Varsi's old government, pressuring him for answers. Varsi remains silent and even fires a blank at FIS agent Andrea, who is secretly an IMF operative. They decide to let them go, hoping Varsi will return Andrea if he’s genuine. Instead, Varsi arranges a meeting with Colonel Kremmer at a hotel, prompting the IMF to race against time to save both him and Andrea from imminent danger.
