In True Justice season 1 episode 2, titled "From Russia With Drugs," we see the team of elite undercover cops led by Steven Seagal take on the Russian mafia in Seattle. The episode opens with a young woman, Nadia, being abducted outside of a nightclub by the mafia. Pavel, the leader of the group, forces her into the back of a van, drugging her with a powerful substance that will make her compliant for their human trafficking operation.
Meanwhile, Elijah Kane (played by Steven Seagal) and his team are hot on the trail of the Russian mafia, following a lead on a drug operation. They stake out a warehouse where they believe the drugs are being stored, but their cover is blown when one of their informants, Slava, is caught stealing drugs from the warehouse. The mafia boss, Anatoly, takes Slava to a back room and threatens him with a meat cleaver before brutally murdering him.
The team must regroup and come up with a new plan. They learn from Slava's wife that the mafia is using a strip club to launder their money, which leads them to Nadia. They track down the van that took her and discover that she was drugged with a substance called "Devil's Breath" which makes her easy to control.
Elijah and his team must navigate the dangerous world of the Russian mafia, balanced against the need to rescue Nadia before it's too late. They work with an old Russian friend of Elijah's, who helps them infiltrate the strip club in order to get close to Pavel and find out where Nadia is being held. Along the way, they encounter a former cop turned hitman who is working for the Russians and must fight their way out of a dangerous situation.
With the help of Nadia's sister and the Russian insider, Elijah and his team eventually locate where she is being held. In a tense and exciting standoff, they must fight off the mafia in order to save Nadia and put an end to the Russians' criminal operation in Seattle.
Ultimately, "From Russia With Drugs" is an action-packed episode that showcases the grit and bravery of Elijah Kane and his team. As they take on a foreign operation that threatens to rip their city apart, they prove that justice will always prevail.
