Just then, a group of private military contractors attack and take Tyler's partner Huang is captured as Tyler attempts to flee. He returns to HQ angry that no one was able to warn him and suspects a mole inside their team. Tyler's operation chief Zimmer denies this and instead orders Tyler to a warehouse in a nearby port city on the Persian Gulf. At the warehouse, Tyler discovers that Huangs tracking chip has been cut off with his whole hand and a nuclear bomb is staring him in the face.

Synopsis

Two-hundred days later, Whitaker has been president for one year and it's not going well. Gas prices/price per barrell have skyrocketed, as well as commodities prices are becoming hyper-inflated and the world is experiencing an energy crisis. China agrees to host an emergency economic summit in Beijing where the nations of the world can discuss action. The nuclear detonation in the Persian Gulf irradiated the path for millions of barrels of oil, making it impossible to access much needed supply.

At the summit, a bomb detonates killing the treasury representatives of the top 20 biggest world economies including the Chinese president.

This causes an issue within the Chinese government. A video supposedly shows Tyler planting the bomb. Tyler has been in hiding the last few months and teams up with a former teammate Rowe. Who doesn't believe Tyler planted the bomb. President Whitaker experiences a power struggle when they learn that the Treasury Secretary was killed. The Vice President and some members of the cabinet place a vote of no confidence in President Whitaker and call to have him removed. But Mitchell quickly turns it around on the Vice President and promptly asks for everyone's resignations at the end of the day. Rowe contacts the President directly about Tyler. President Whitaker too doesn't believe Tyler could've placed the bomb because Whitaker ordered him to find the bomb makers. The Vice President asks President Whitaker to spare everyone else and only accept his resignation, he agrees and accepts his resignation.

The Chinese catch wind of this and hold America in contempt as they had foreknowledge of the attack. Using a Chinese hacker to vindicate Tyler, saying the original bomb placer was a Russian agent. Tyler and re-teams with Rowe and company and they travel to a Chinese rocket launch site run by a rogue Chinese general and thwart a rocket launch at Russia and the US. The Chinese government thanks Tyler and give him a head-start as a three way war is about to breakout between the US, China and Russia.
