'The Enemy Within' is a television series that premiered February 25 on NBC. The series revolves around Erica Shepherd (Jennifer Carpenter) the CIA's Deputy Director of Operations. When a Russian criminal named Mikhail Vassily Tal threatens Shepherd's daughter Hannah for information about the agents who disarmed his bombs, Shepherd has to comply to his terms. This results in those agents getting murdered and Shepherd going to jail.

Three years later, Tal is back and this time Richard Bregman (John Finn) a superior FBI agent convinces Will Keaton (Morris Chestnut) another FBI agent to bring Shepherd back into the team. Shepherd agrees to conditions and helps them out with information on how to stop Tal.
