She is alone, a stranger in a strange land, and has eight of the most ruthless criminals from the future, known as Liber8, loose in the city. Lucky for Kiera, through the use of her CMR (cellular memory recall), a futuristic liquid chip technology implanted in her brain, she connects with Alec Sadler, a seventeen-year-old tech genius. When Kiera calls and Alec answers, a very unique partnership begins. Kiera’s first desire is to get "home". But until she figures out a way to do that, she must survive in our time period and use all the resources available to her to track and capture the terrorists before they alter history enough to change the course of the future. After all, what’s the point of going back if the future isn’t the one you left? Kiera knows that the eight terrorists will resort to criminal activity to further their goals of taking down the corporations that will one day rule the world. Lives will be lost.

Her goal is to kill or capture them before they can turn the world upside down. For Kiera, there's only one organization that can help her hunt down Liber8, and through clever thinking, manages to work with the Vancouver Police Department.

Partnered up with Detective Carlos Fonnegra of the Special Investigations Unit, Kiera positions herself perfectly to hear about Liber8's activities and hopefully intervene. Like Kiera, Carlos is a cop with a passion for justice. They are from totally opposite ends of the ideological spectrum.

Coming from 2012, Carlos believes in justice for the individual while Kiera, coming from 2077, believes in justice for the corporation. This provides sparks on many levels: work, political worldviews and emotionally. Yet despite their differences, they have each other's back. And although they get off to a rocky start, there's an inherent trust that blooms between them.

Kiera, brought up and trained to always depend on her technology, finds her relationship with Carlos has her learning to listen to her gut for the first time.

This week takes a break from the normal Liber8 hunting, and explores Kiera and Carlos' characters a bit more. Sadly they took the police drama story way too far, and if it wasn't for Kiera's advancements, this would have fallen into the realm of mediocrity.

Carlos and Kiera now have a new common problem; they both trusted their friends too much. Whether it was Kiera being betrayed by her friend and husband in 2077, or Carlos trusting his friends he knew for years, everyone has their secrets and will betray their friendship if it benefits them.

Now that both have them have been burnt, they will stop keeping secrets from each other, right? Nope. Kiera must be aware by now that just like the secrets that tore them apart from their friends, it doesn't matter how close they will be, when Carlos finds out the truth about her, it will not end well. This was her chance to come clean, or at least lay the seeds for the truth, but instead she just told him that they need to keep secrets. That decision definitely wasn't the bright spot this week.

Kiera's arsenal is what really shone this episode. With all of her toys, she is like a one-woman police force. She can tell when someone is lying, she can dust for prints then cross-reference them to her own database, hack into electronic devices, and see a holographic display of past events.

Her micro-dusting spray was really impressive, but it was her Sonic Screwdriver that I loved the most. It may have been an older model (given the size of it), but it had all the tell-tale signs of The Doctor's favourite toy. It is good to know that if the Daleks attack Vancouver that we will have a new protector to deal with. Someone needs to get a picture of her holding this thing up while leaning against a phone booth.

I almost expected Alec to make a Dark Knight joke when Kiera decided to use cell phone signals to trace the past events of the murder. This was a lot more advanced than Bruce's but her suit has a bit more processing power than what we can get at this time. It didn't solve the case, but this Ninja Assassin better keep to the shadows from now on.

I don't have a hard time believing that Liber8 was involved, on the contrary, I expected it. I can't believe that Carlos, who just happened to be Kiera's new partner, knew everyone involved? This was all about putting the right people in power to harm the corporations of the future, so there was no need to implicate Carlos into this story. It felt as if he was just slapped into the story at the last minute so that Kiera and Carlos could bond over this moment of weakness.
