Annie Walker, a CIA trainee, is tasked with her first solo assignment as a field agent. She is sent to Morocco to rendezvous with a contact who has information on terrorist Khalid Ansari. However, the operation goes awry when Annie's contact is killed and she is left with no backup. Desperate to complete her mission, Annie seeks the help of a local bar owner named Mohamed, who agrees to assist her in exchange for her help in securing a visa to leave the country.
As Annie and Mohamed work together to gather information on Ansari, they are pursued by Moroccan intelligence, who are suspicious of their activities. Annie must use all of her training to avoid detection and stay one step ahead of the authorities. Meanwhile, back in the United States, Annie's handler, Auggie Anderson, attempts to help her from afar, but is met with resistance from his superiors.
As the situation in Morocco escalates, Annie discovers that Ansari is planning a major attack on American soil. With the clock ticking, Annie must race against time to gather the intelligence needed to stop the terrorist plot. In the end, Annie's determination and resourcefulness pay off as she is able to thwart the attack and complete her mission.
Throughout the episode, Annie grapples with the reality of life as a CIA agent, questioning whether she has what it takes to handle the pressure and danger that comes with the job. She also struggles with the ethical implications of her actions, particularly when it comes to working with Mohamed, whose motivations she begins to question.
Overall, "No Quarter" is a tense and thrilling episode that showcases the skills and determination of Annie Walker as she navigates her first solo mission. The episode also touches on larger themes of morality and the complex nature of international espionage, as Annie must weigh her duty to her country against her own conscience.
