Ep 13. Bad Breaks

Michael Weston (Jeffrey Donovan) is a former spy and an expert in all things espionage. He now works as a freelance spy and helps people in trouble with his unique set of skills. In season 2 episode 13 of Burn Notice, titled "Bad Breaks," Michael takes on the case of a man who has been swindled out of a large sum of money by a con artist.

The episode starts with Michael meeting with his client, a man named Glen. Glen is a small business owner who has lost everything after investing in a scam run by a con artist named Gerald. Gerald is a smooth talker who convinces people to invest in his fake businesses, and then disappears with the money. Glen wants his money back and he turns to Michael for help.

Michael starts his investigation by going undercover as an investor. He sets up a meeting with Gerald and his associate, but the meeting goes sour quickly. Gerald recognizes Michael as a spy and flees the scene. Michael manages to get some information from the associate, but he doesn't know where Gerald is hiding.

Meanwhile, Michael's mother, Madeline (Sharon Gless), has been helping a friend of hers who has been scammed by a different con artist. Madeline realizes that the two scams are connected and she provides Michael with some valuable information.

With Madeline and his ex-girlfriend Fiona (Gabrielle Anwar) by his side, Michael sets a trap for Gerald. They set up a fake business opportunity and lure Gerald in. Michael confronts Gerald and demands that he return the money he stole from Glen. But, things quickly go south and Michael and his team find themselves in over their heads.

In typical Burn Notice fashion, the episode is action-packed with plenty of twists and turns. We see Michael use his spy skills to gather information, go undercover, and ultimately take down the bad guy. However, Michael and his team also face some setbacks and must rely on each other to get out of some dangerous situations.

Overall, "Bad Breaks" is a satisfying episode of Burn Notice that showcases the show's signature blend of action, intrigue, and humor.
