Episode 1
Sun, Jul 22, 200786 mins
'Mr. Wolf' heads a group which executes a well-planned bloodless bank robbery in Pittsburgh. Alas, an FBI agent which happened to be there but kept quiet during shoots at them when they're outside, and an armored car which retrograded to pick up a lost cellphone blocks their way, so they must retreat inside and take hostages as the police lays a siege. PPD officer Horst Cali's cautious attitude is overruled by deputy chief Abrami, leading to a SWAT team casualty. Sergeant 'Wolf' steps outside, strips to his boxers to show his Iraq war wounds and convinces the TV audience the US government hurt his veteran platoon even worse.
Episode 2
Sun, Jul 22, 200741 mins
A Pittsburgh real estate tycoon leans heavily, via political cronies, to make his brat-daughter's release a top-priority, but Horst Cali refuses to appreciate being owed a favor. Deputy Chief Abrami plans to have Cali replaced, or at least suspended, by an FBI negotiator, after a failure. Wolf actually agrees to release hostages on humanitarian grounds for favors, but he refuses to include the youngest, computer whiz kid Robby Sabian, and threatens to execute someone unless electrical power, which Horst had ordered cut as pressure, is restored within an hour. Giving in to save a life is considered unforgivable to Abrami.

Sun, Jul 29, 200760 mins
Cali has to hand over the rein to a female FBI negotiator, arranged by politicians to accommodate the tycoon's wish to make his daughter top priority. She assures him she respects his reputation, but completely ignores his advise by confronting the kidnappers. Mr. Wolf doesn't budge, simply refuses to talk to her at all and ends up successfully demanding to speak to Cali again and gives him the eldest hostage. Meanwhile accomplices outdoors take sniping positions. Cali's team works outs Robby Sabian's dad was released as part of a plot depending on the fat knave's brilliant computer skills.

Wolf is confident his escape will succeed now his platoon cahoots are in position outside and assures the despairing hostages their ordeal is nearly over too. To assure maximal distraction, he goes outside to make another rousing speech to the crowd, convincing fellow veterans to show their scars like him and demonstrate against the ingrate government. However Cali's team spots the reinforcements just in time to counter.
Episode 7
Sun, Aug 26, 200755 mins
Mr. Wolf retreats into the board room, apparently just mourning his badly wounded mate who ran out and dared the SWAT until he was fatally shot. Again to Cali's horror, the corporal who assumes command proves bloodthirsty and irrational, platoon buddies can barely stop him executing prisoners even before the one hour ultimatum for a helicopter expires. Cali tortures Leon, thus accidentally discovering a bug, and manages to hold off a bloody attack so he can go in, finding Wolf in control again, who actually gave the go-ahead for his most daring move.
Episode 8
Sun, Aug 26, 200755 mins
Captain Cali enters the bank for final negotiations but eventually calls SWAT to move in. When they do, the hostages are found unhurt, the only corpse is that of the Henry brother, whom Wolf had to previously kill in a duel for leadership. Cali and the rest of the platoon have escaped in an ambulance and meet the unit's outside team, but their leader, Deke, refuses to release Horst's wife - as Wolf still feels honor-bound. Tonray discovers a bug, actually in Cali's shoe, so the police can surround them by surprise. A gun-fight ensues, from which only the smartest Henry brother escapes, who later cashes a fortune that was already wired to Canada. Wolf refuses to surrender and forces Horst to chase him and engage in a lethal gun-duel.
