Intelligence

Get to know your way around the dark side of the street in this critically acclaimed drama from the creator of Da Vinci's Inquest. Meet Canadian underworld kingpin Jimmy Reardon (Ian Tracey, Da Vinci's City Hall) , a dedicated father, respected businessman and big-time drug smuggler. Making an unlikely alliance with Mary Spalding (Klea Scott, Millennium), the ruthlessly ambitious head of Vancouver's Organized Crime Unit, the pair goes deep inside the murky world of Vancouver's mean streets, bedrooms and high-rise offices. Tom McBeath (Da Vinci's City Hall), Eugene Lipinski (Psych) and Bernie Coulson (Da Vinci's Inquest) also star in this gritty, edgy drama. A fast-paced crime series fit for fans of MI-5.

Intelligence: The Pilot - Mary Spalding, head of Vancouver's Organized Crime Unit, eyes a promotion to the Canadian Security Intelligence Service. Her subordinate, Ted Altman, tries to undermine her chances but commits a disastrous blunder. Crime boss Jimmy Reardon comes into possession of potentially damaging OCU files, and the repercussions affect his family.

Where Good Men Die Like Dogs - As a price war looms with the Disciples, Jimmy tries to decide what to do about Bill, the grower who lost an entire crop in a suspicious security lapse. Mary meets with Roger Deakins-her rival for head of CSIS's Asia-Pacific division-and learns of dangerous enemies inside her own office.

A Champagne Payday - As Jimmy interviews new suppliers, his brother Michael undertakes a side business of his own-running weed to the States-and encounters big problems. In an effort to infiltrate the Reardon Empire, Mary recruits Tina from Katarina's escort service to become a stripper at the Chickadee.

Don't Break Your Brother's Heart - Even as she takes steps to deal with the mole in her wire room, Mary makes an important presentation that she hopes will cement her promotion to CSIS. Back at the Chickadee, Ronnie becomes increasingly concerned about Michael's erratic behavior and urges him to enter rehab.

Jimmy's Got a Money Machine - Jimmy runs into trouble stocking and operating the bank machines that he has been using to launder money. Worrying as much about her own agents as about the bad guys, Mary learns that the OCU mole has a girlfriend whose brother works for a Chinese crime syndicate.

Where There's One, There's Another - After Randy Bingham visits the Chickadee, Jimmy weighs whether to get involved in the stockbroker's gun-running scheme. Mary pressures Jimmy to go in even deeper with Bingham. She also confronts Lee Ching, the mole in her wire room, and learns of a Chinese dissident marked for assassination.

Pressure Drop - Mary aims to tie the OCU mole to the tail of her rival, Deakins. However, as she and Martin watch, the mole gets a visit that changes Mary's plans completely. While running cash for the Reardon bank machines, Michael has an encounter with a pair of unidentified assailants.

Love and War - The execution of the mole on Mary's watch could kill any hope of her promotion, and she suspects a leak high in OCU or CSIS. Despite pressure from inside his organization, Jimmy resists going to war with the Disciples, preferring to wait for hard evidence against them

Clean and Simple - Jimmy and Ronnie enlist their Vietnamese partners, Phan and East Side Johnny, to jack one of the Disciples' couriers, but the plan goes horribly awry. Refusing to turn over the names of her informants to CSIS until she finds out who "ratted on her rat," Mary plans to apply serious pressure in Ottawa.

Cleaning Up - Winston's foolhardy behavior at a traffic stop leads Jimmy and Ronnie to question their new supplier's judgment. Mary persuades Deakins to delay his resignation while she investigates leaks higher up the ladder, for which she enlists Ted's help. Meanwhile, new evidence emerges about Colin's shooting, implicating the Disciples.

Things Change - The Reardons seek to expand their enterprises, with Mike looking to buy a nightclub and Jimmy eyeing an offshore bank. Mary offers Randy Bingham protection-even though she seems to know more about his gun-running operation than he does.

Not a Nice Boy! - The DEA busts Alex, Jimmy's stateside distributor, and proceeds to bait a trap. But, anticipating a rich retirement for himself and a promotion for both Mary and Ted, Deakins advises Ted to call off the Reardon sting. Meanwhile, Jimmy tests Francine's courage under pressure.

Dante's Inferno - Dante drives away from the Chickadee with a prisoner in the back seat-East Side Johnny, the Vietnamese shooter who killed the Disciples' courier. Fearing the worst, Jimmy and Ronnie tear off in pursuit. Using Katarina's wiles, Mary collects hard evidence on Royden before the axe falls on her.

Down but Not Out - With his life at risk, Jimmy marshals all of his resources to learn the name of the OCU officer threatening to out him as an informant. And with her job on the line, Mary devises a last-ditch scheme to eliminate Royden. Meanwhile, Jimmy and his family head toward Seattle, directly into the DEA's trap.
