In Archer season 4 episode 1, titled "Fugue and Riffs," the main character, Sterling Archer, wakes up in a completely different life after suffering from amnesia following a traumatic event. He has forgotten who he is and everything about his past life as a highly skilled spy working for the International Intelligence Agency.
Confused and disoriented, Archer struggles to piece together his new life with the help of his former colleagues, who are trying to bring him back to his old life. As they try to jog his memory, they find that his new persona is completely opposite of who he was before - instead of being a flashy, confident spy, he is a humble, soft-spoken diner owner who is happily married with children.
Despite everyone's best efforts to help Archer regain his memory, he begins to flourish in his new life and starts to feel a sense of fulfillment he never felt before. However, danger lurks around every corner as his former enemies try to track him down and eliminate the former spy who may now be a liability.
As Archer navigates between his old and new life, he struggles to find a balance between what he wants and what he needs to do to protect those around him. With plenty of laughs, action, and unexpected twists, "Fugue and Riffs" sets the stage for another exciting season of Archer.
