Prime Video’s expensive new espionage show continues with “Tell Her Everything.” Mason (Richard Madden) and Nadia (Priyanka Chopra Jonas) head to Morocco to free Citadel spy Carter Spence. While the rest of the installment focuses on flashbacks, exploring Abby’s (Ashleigh Cummings) undercover mission and Mason’s deceitful ways.
The episode is fast-paced and ends with another intriguing plot twist, but it is hard to care about these characters when they are so shallow and cliched. Here’s what happened in Citadel Season 1, Episode 4:
- At a Manticore Black Site, Mason and Nadia take on an army of guards as they search for Carter. When they’ve found their fellow spy, he appears haggard and shaken. Carter blames Mason for his current predicament.
- Ten years earlier, in Paris, Mason and Nadia finish their romantic getaway. Nadia is informed that an old colleague is joining the team.
- Mason is introduced to Celeste Graham (aka Abby Conroy, aka Brielle). She is to go undercover to gather intel on Anders and his latest creation, the Oz Key, a new terrorist device.
- Celeste goes deep undercover but isn’t heard from in 3 months. Mason panics and sends in an ops team to save her.
- The mission is a failure, Davik escapes, and the Oz Key is lost. They have Anders, hostage, though.
- Mason interrogates Celeste, who he thinks stole the Oz Key. Nadia believes she is innocent, though. She stops Mason from going through with one of his violent threats.
- Nadia asks for Celeste to be relocated to a safe house. Privately, Mason suggests wiping Celeste’s memories instead. Grace agrees to the backstopping procedure behind Nadia’s back.
- Celeste is given a new identity, and her memories are wiped.
- Carter confronts Mason; he has solved the mystery. Nadia ordered the ops team to find and retrieve the Oz Key in secret. Nadia is the mole. Carter thinks that Mason is protecting Nadia. He used Celeste as a scapegoat.
- In the present, Carter looks to Nadia; she is the one he blames, not Mason.

Predictions
- Carter will warn Mason about Nadia; she cannot be trusted. He thinks she is the mole and may be the one who brought down the Citadel after all. Balduino thought the same thing. Is this a red herring, is she the traitor, or is Nadia being set up?
- Dahlia will continue to torture Bernard, but Anders will set him free. Together they will head to Abby and the secret hideout.
- Carter’s words will force Mason to confront his own past. Will he hate the person he used to be? Will he stay with Abby after all their secrets are out? I don’t think Abby will take the news of her past too well. She may panic and flee.
