More Death, More Terror & More Misses in 'Trigger Point'

Things are not going well for Lana as Trigger Point Season 2 hits the halfway point, and frankly, I don’t know how much more this poor woman can take. I took the liberty of looking at possible Starbucks jobs in the London area because I really think a career making pumpkin lattes would be good for her. As the third episode begins, Lana is in shock after Thom falls to his death, barely registering that the team discovers the authorized elevator repairman was kidnapped; the terrorist used his credentials to get into the office building.

Meanwhile, a mysterious woman who calls herself Hope (Bethan Cullinane) chats up her mark, a businessman by the name of Oliver (Jon Tarcy), having breakfast at a local diner. As she low-key flirts with him, someone takes his briefcase and returns it before he even notices it is gone. Before Oliver heads off to work, Hope asks for his email address so they can make a plan to meet up. The pair emails back and forth during the day, making plans to meet up after Oliver’s evening meeting.

The mysterious man Alex, whom we met in the first two episodes helping the terrorists, reaches out to law enforcement. Alex explains to Lana and Helen that he didn’t know what he was getting into. He was strictly on comms, but now the people he’s working with want him to do more. He offers to help Lana and Helen catch the terrorists if they can offer him a deal.
