"Covert Affairs" centers on a young CIA trainee, Annie Walker (Piper Perabo), mysteriously summoned to headquarters for duty as field operative.Free Download Video Covert Affairs Hello Stranger Episode On ABC Family Tv Online Tv Live Streaming Video. Online Watch Covert Affairs Full Episode Watch Stream HD Video on Internet TV.When the Prime Minister of Yemen arrives in the US for emergency heart surgery, Annie takes on a near-impossible assignment: with a three-hour window, no back-up, and the State Department warning the CIA not to interfere, Annie attempts to turn the Prime Minister's Chief of Staff into a CIA asset.While Annie believes she's been promoted for her exceptional linguistic skills, there may be something or someone from her past that her CIA bosses are really after. Christopher Gorham plays Auggie Anderson, a CIA military intelligence agent who was blinded while on assignment and is Annie's guide in this world of bureaucracy, excitement and intrigue.
Welcome to Fourth of July celebrations at Langley. Apparently even spies like to celebrate the big occasion with red velvet cupcakes, thanks to well-Louboutin-heeled spy Annie Walker (Piper Perabo), with a little help from her big sister Danielle (Anne Dudek).
Season 3 kicks off to an explosive start – literally. As a result of this high-ranking operative’s shocking mishap, the Domestic Protection Division (DPD) headed by Joan (Kari Matchett) undergoes some major changes that she has no control of.
Cue Annie’s new boss, Lena Smith (Sarah Clarke), a star CIA operative who believes that Annie has been underutilized at DPD and is quick with the flattery and encouragement. She does not believe that operatives, especially with Annie’s talents and skills, should be stuck at a desk and encourages them to be out on the field.
Lena assigns Annie to a high-security case investigating a man named Simon Fisher (Richard Coyle) – Russian-born, Cambridge-educated venture capitalist whose mother took him around the world as a child after his father died. The CIA believes his mother to have been a KGB agent and that Simon was born to be a spy. He is suspected of multiple murders and is deemed to be an extremely dangerous man.
Where danger goes, Annie follows. Under the cover of being a Smithsonian employee, Annie travels to Marrakech to “bump into” Simon. It is rare for Simon to meet someone who has travelled as extensively as he has and the two find themselves bonding over coffee (Moroccan blend, perhaps?) comparing stamps in their passports.
As if challenging Lena’s assertion that the CIA has double standards in how they treat their male and female operatives (for example, male operatives are encouraged to sleep with their assets in order to gain information), Annie takes her assignment to the next level, mixing a bit of business with pleasure.
Without her friend and confidante Auggie (Christopher Gorham) whispering in her ear to guide her, Annie must rely on her new boss to get her through this assignment safely but can she trust Lena (especially since Sarah Clarke played such a traitorous counter-intelligence agent in 24)?
Great new show - good writing, excellent casting. Especially Oded Fehr - like to see more of him.
Just to comment on the criticism of the actor playing the blind operative - my mother was totally blind the final 21 years of her life (she lived to 92). No one knew, including some family members. She moved around without help as did her eyes - just like the character Augie - and showed expression as do many persons who become blind later in life. As I'm sure could be the case with some persons blind from birth.
I really appreciate this show's awareness of the fact that there are other languages and countries beyond America - something we need more of.
