What to expect in Countdown Episode 5?
Stakes are getting really high this time for Nathan Blythe's task force as Volchek escaped in the blink of an eye. Mikhail's secret method of communication with Volchek blew the entire operation out in the open - despite Mark being so close to nabbing the Belarusian terrorist.
Moreover, now that Drew is no more the team is recovering from the shock, and with one less member on board, hands are even more occupied for everyone. Volchek has burnt down all the blueprints of his terror strike but it is so far clear that L.A. Port will be a key location.
Moreover, Blythe's unit needs to be one step ahead of Volchek now that he is out in the open again. Mark is also under a lot of pressure due to his brain tumor so every minute is now a 'Countdown' to something big. The title of Countdown Episode 5 (Blurred Edges) might imply an unpredictable situation for the task force as to what to do next - clarity is very important now and every step will be crucial to save Los Angeles.

- Jensen Ackles as LAPD Robbery Division Officer and undercover agent Mark Meachum
