Eric quickly discovers the true reason for his hire: Hanssen is the sole subject of a long-term, top-secret investigation, a suspected mole made all the more dangerous by the sheer global import of the information he is charged with protecting. The Bureau asks Eric to slowly draw the traitor out of deep cover.Closed circuit: One morning, a busy London market is decimated by an explosion. In the manhunt that follows, only one member of the suspected terrorist cell survives: Farroukh Erdogan, who is arrested and jailed.

He'll be shot in 24 hours unless the President steps in. CIA honchos meet at Langley to control the damage to the diplomatic mission by hanging Bishop out to dry. Enter Nathan Muir with one day before retirement from the Agency. Nathan is the man who recruited and trained Bishop. Now he needs to find a way to get the President to free Bishop.

A US Congressman's assistant falls in front of a subway train - three seemingly unrelated deaths. The dead assistant was the chief researcher for Congressman Stephen Collins, spearheading hearings into the role of private security firm PointCorp. She was also his lover. Cal McAffrey, a rumpled, old-school metro reporter at the Washington Globe is covering the first story. He was Collins' college roommate, and had a brief affair with Anne, Collins' wife. Their personal history may be exploited, as Cal spies a conspiracy waiting to be uncovered. Teamed with aspiring young Globe political blogger Della Frye by his crusty editor, evidence begins to pile up, and new pieces start to fall into place. Leads are run down, supporting reporters are brought in, as Cal and Della work together in an attempt to connect the dots before the clock runs out. Cal will discover at least one truth: when fortunes are at stake, no one's integrity, love, or life is safe.Breach MPAA rating: PG-13; for violence, sexual content and language.Closed circuit MPAA rating: R; for language and brief violence.Spy game MPAA rating: R; for language, some violence and brief sexuality.State of play MPAA rating: Rated PG-13 for some violence, language including sexual references, and brief drug content; includes depictions of tobacco consumption.DVD ; region 1 ; anamorphic widescreen ; Dolby Digital 5.1 surround.
