Summary
Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan Season 2, Episode 6, “Persona Non Grata”, meanders a little, but it opens the door for what’s to come in the final two chapters.
With the stakes higher than before, Jack returns to Venezuela in Episode 6, “Persona Non Grata”. Jim (Wendell Pierce) picks him up without Mike’s knowledge, but their plans are skewed when Venezuelan police hold them at gunpoint and shove them in their cars.
Marcus is still on the boundaries of an indigenous village in the jungle in Episode 6, “Persona Non Grata”. He is finally joined up with Matice’s task team, who have been attacked. Marcus helps them.
We learn that Jim and Jack were held at gunpoint by President Reyes’ men. They end up at an estate with Reyes, and the President tries convincing Jim and Jack again that he captured the men who killed the US Senator. Jack brings the truth to the table, that the real man who killed Moreno was Max. Reyes offers some chilling words — “All your assumptions are based on ignorance — you’ve disrespected me”. Episode 6, “Persona Non Grata” is getting uneasy for the Americans.
Meanwhile, back in the jungle, Matice tries his best to get out of heavy gunfire, but he ends up getting rifled to death. Another American dead.
With Reyes offering threatening words, he flares up tension in the media, and the US Embassy is suffering from intense protests outside the gates. Mike is furious at Jack for returning, but Jim explains that they are close to connecting the dots. The news shows the protests outside, the anti-American rhetoric, and the death of the American soldier Matice. The embassy is ordered to evacuate and Mike is accused of putting American lives in danger.
Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan Season 2, Episode 6, “Persona Non Grata”, closes with Mike deciding that he is not leaving Venezuela. All three men decide to stay. They head to a hideout and Jack secretly asks one of the men helping the drive to their next location to detour Jim to the airport. Jack is worried the stress may cause further health problems for Jim.
But unfortunately, the man driving Jim away is not on their team, and Jim is captured.

Hey Daniel, the driver of the police car that Greer is in is none other than Greer’s compadre Jose he brought to Gloria Bonalde to train up her security team in the previous episodes to better protect her and her family. So, it wasn’t just a man who they thought was on their team, it was someone who had been on the inside with Greer, Jack, and Mike and has a lot of Intel on them which he has been feeding to Reyes.
I am not so sure how things would have played out if Jack had not asked Jose to drive to the airport and Jose instead was routed to the rendezvous point to meet Mike and Jack. Makes for a necessary plot device it seems.
