This episode takes off where Legacy 1
left off, with Harm and Sergei meeting each other. Harm wants to
know how he knows his father, Sergei tells him he is my father too and he
gives him all the information he knows about his dad. He even knew
about the time Harm and his dad carving their names into the Roller
Coaster.
Mark
Falcon meets Mac and Webb at the airport with Alexi the Russian cab driver
who seems will work for anyone as long as they pay top dollar.
Mac finds out that Harm is involved in her murder investigation but that
he doesn't know that he is involved and that it would be safer for him not
to know. Webb tells Alexi to bring Mac to her hotel but instead Mac
has Alexi driver her to Chechnya.
During
the drive to Chechnya, Alexi keeps trying to get Mac to change her mind
and turn back. You can see that he cares about her. They get a
flat tire and he tries to fix it but is unable to do it but Mac does.
He questions her feelings for Harm and for Mic. She tells him she is
almost engaged to Mic but that her and Harm are just friends. He
really doesn't believe it.
At JAG Headquarters, Bud is defending
the Navy from a lawsuit from a
women who claims that when they rescued her from a sinking raft, they
ended her chances of winning a reality show. The producer of the
show in Court offers the women tons of money if she gets married at 6 that
night. The case is dismissed when the women starts asking every man
there to marry her.
Sergei is arrested for murder and
treason because the Russian General planted evidence on him. Harm
and Volganav defend Sergei but in the end Harm ends himself up in the jail
cell with Sergei because after he was found guilty, Harm ran his mouth off
in typical Harm style and ended himself jailed. Mac shows up, meets
Harm's brother and proceeds to tell Harm about the assassin and the plot.
They all escape and they go to find the assassin.
Back
at JAG, the Admiral tells Mic that Harm and Mac are missing.
Mic wants to know if there is any information on them. The Admiral
wants to know what is bothering Mic more the fact that Mac is missing or
that she
is missing with Harm.
Mac spots the assassin and Harm and
Sergei open up an ambulance with explosives in it. Harm and Sergei
start to argue about who will take the ambulance away and Mac makes a
comment on how they really are brothers cause they are both stubborn.
They catch the assassin and disarm the bomb and Harm tries to convince
Sergei to come back to America with them and not stay in the war in
Chechnya but he decides he will fight with honor like their father.
I have to admit that I thoroughly
enjoyed part two of Legacy better than I did part one.
It
was good to see Alexi back again. He's a very funny character and he made
Mac think there on the road to Chechnya when he reminded her that she's
almost died several times for Harm and what had she done for Mic. You
could see her reaction to the statement. It's like she just then realized
that she had gone to several lengths for Harm since they met five years
ago.
Webb
really surprised me with how he acted towards Mark when it came to Mac and
Harm. He was really worried about both of them. He seemed to be real in
his concern and not just worried that the Admiral would come through in
his hidden threat.
Mark
Falcon also surprised me in this one. He, actually, sent Sergei to meet
Harm. This was his way of thanking him for helping find the arms dealer, I
guess. Anyway, it was really sweet of him to give Harm his brother. If it
hadn't been for him, Harm might have never met his younger brother or ever
known about him.
A part I wish they had never put into the show was with Bud. Bud was
defending a Captain of a Navy ship against a Survivor type show. The Navy
saved this woman from drowning during the show. Legacy was a very serious
show and to put Bud and this case into it, in my opinion, took away from
the seriousness of the show.
Mic,
however, was sweet in his part of the show. His concern for Mac was
evident as he talked with the Admiral about Mac and Harm disappearing. The
Admiral nailed it though when he said, "Are you worried about her
disappearing or her disappearing with him." The Admiral isn't
stupid when it comes to the feelings of Mac, Mic and Harm.
The show ended with the four saving the day and Bud winning his case. Webb
surprised us again when he handed Mac, Harm and even Sergei a first class
ticket home. Usually, he wouldn't have even bothered, but he's changed.
Sergei turned in his ticket, much to the dismay of Harm, hugged his
brother and went back to Chechnya. You could see the sadness in Harm's
face as the show ended with him.
Il sergente Sergiei Jukov racconta ad Harm che non lo aveva mai
dimenticato: raccontava sempre a suo zio di quando avevano inciso i loro
nomi sulle carrozze delle montagne russe; solo Harm e suo padre sapevano
di questo avvenimento.
Mac e Webb arrivano in Russia e incontrano Alexei, pronto a portarli a
destinazione; ma sopraggiunge Mark Falcon, che vuole farli espellere dal
paese; Webb lo convince a lavorare insieme e tutti e due si recano
all’ambasciata, mentre Mac vorrebbe passare a salutare Harm. Falcon le
rivela però dove si trova, ed è a conoscenza di ciò su cui sta indagando.
Intanto Sergiei deve superare le diffidenze di Volkonov che crede sia
d’accordo con Krilov; Harm gli crede.
Nonostante Alexei tremi solo al pensiero, Mac si fa portare in Cecenia;
nel frattempo Webb, all’ambasciata, viene a sapere che Mac non si trova e
pensa che Falcon abbia fatto lui in modo di avere Harm e Mac entrambi in
Cecenia; allora intima a Falcon di fermare Mac, anche se Falcon fa capire
che comunque ha altre priorità.
Sergiei racconta che ha ricevuto l’ordine di lasciare il luogo dove c’era
il convoglio dall’addetto alle comunicazioni della base, un caporale, che
è stato appena congedato da Krilov; ovviamente ciò è sospetto, così i tre
lo cercano e lo trovano in un bar: questo, dopo aver appreso della morte
dei suoi compagni, riferisce che l’ordine di mandare via la scorta dal
convoglio e in seguito Jukov in una zona dove non c’erano ceceni, è stato
dato da Krilov, e c’è pure un documento per iscritto che lo conferma.
Volkonov lo trova e lo conserva gelosamente.
Mac intanto, caparbiamente va avanti: prima corrompe un ufficiale russo al
confine ceceno che la voleva fermare, poi cambia lei una ruota scoppia,
visto che Alexei non ne è capace; in lonatananza si sentono i fuochi
dell’artiglieria.
Alla base, Krilov arresta il sergente Jukov con l’accusa di corruzione,
omicidio e tradimento, addosandogli le sue colpe; inoltre fa in modo che
sull’elicottero si trovi una cassa di armi.
Webb scopre che Volkonov lavora per Falcon; lui dice che ha mandato Harm
in Cecenia per fargli conoscere una persona importante (il fratello). Che
nello stesso tempo si trova a affrontare la corte marziale; Harm chiede un
rinvio, ma non l’ottiene, e poi chiede il cambio del collegio giudicante (nominato
da Krilov) e lo spostamento del processo in altra sede. La giuria rifiuta
nettamente. Intanto l’unico testimone d’accusa, il caporale, muore
esplodendo in un campo minato.
Testimonia Krilov; le obiezioni di Harm, che difende Sergiei insieme al
capitano Volkonov, sono inutili, nonostante dica che sono fratelli e che
non avrebbe mai lasciato il posto sapendo che sarebbe stato attaccato dai
ribelli, ma la giuria non ci crede. Dice pure apertamente che il colpevole
è lo stesso Krilov, ma il foglio con l’ordine scritto viene considerato un
falso, senza la testimonianza dell’addetto alle comunicazioni. Non c’è
nulla da fare, e la giuria dichiara Sergiei colpevole, condannandolo a
morte per fucilazione.
Webb e Falcon si recano in un albergo per prendere Rokotov, ma questi è
scappato.
Intanto Harm e Volkonov riescono a convincere il generale a sospendere la
pena; Volkonov si appella al diritto di presentare le prova al presidente
Putin a Mosca; ma Putin si sta per recare nella base in visita.
Mentre Harm, Volkonov e Sergiei si trovano nella prigione della base,
arriva Mac che li mette al corrente del complotto contro Putin; poi vede
Rokotov alla guida di un ambulanza (lo aveva visto anche il giorno
dell’attentato a Carlton, vestito da sottufficiale). Harm allora colpisce
la guardia e porta fuori Sergiei; l’ambulanza è piena di plastico,
immobile (con alcuni fili tagliati) e l’auto presidenziale sta per
arrivare. Così, mentre Harm cerca di metterla in moto e Sergiei tenta di
disinnescare il detonatore, Mac e Volkonov cercano di raggiungere Rokotov
che ha il telecomando. Appena in tempo, Harm fa partire l’autoveicolo,
mentre Mac colpisce Rokotov ma viene fermata delle guardie russe; Rokotov
scappa, ma è braccato da Harm che lo raggiunge. Col telecomando in mano,
mentre sopraggiungono Webb e Falcon, Rokotov tenta un ultimo disperato
tentativo, premendo il bottone: ma Sergiei ha disinnescato il detonatore.
Rokotov viene arrestato, Krilov messo sotto torchio vuota il sacco.
Sergiei e Harm si salutano: Harm cerca di convincerlo a venire con lui in
U.S.A. ma lui vuole restare con i suoi compagni; anche suo padre avrebbe
fatto così.
Webb consegna a Mac e Harm due biglietti di prima classe per il viaggio di
ritorno.
