Counterstrike - Season 2 - Eps 11: Fire in the Streets
On a visit to New York to meet with city officials over his low-income house project, NOVA, the deputy mayor asks Alexander whether he would be gracious enough to be photographed at the site of this project with him. While at the site, Alan Clayton, a local social activist, invites them to tour the condemned building and see the lifestyle of the homeless. The situation turns ugly after the photographer calls the police accusing Clayton to taking Addington and the deputy mayor hostage. The Counterstrike learns of this from a news report and rushes to the scene.
