Synopsis:
Following his escape from the Circus, Blackhawk has gone underground. He begins using a false identity and makes contact with Mairzey who is also in hiding. After months of planning, they have obtained jobs at the newly re-opened Blackhawk Airways which is under CIA control with a imposter posing as the real Janos Prohaska.

Blackhawk forms an alliance with Paco Herrera, another employee who underwent CIA brainwashing. Together they are able to knock out the imposter and place themselves in position to find where the other Blackhawks have been kept. They infiltrate an installation in Bethesda and successfully revive the five Blackhawks from cold storage.

While Paco leads the others out of the installation, Blackhawk remains behind. He then encounters Lady Blackhawk who has had the face of Constance Darabont grafted over her own. She demands to be taken out also. When Blackhawk fails to trust her, she threatens to kill him.
