Night Country
Episode 1 Plot: When eight researchers at Tsalal Station suddenly disappear, Danvers orders a search but tempers expectations of finding the men.

Episode 3 Plot: While Hank leads the search for Clark, Prior asks Danvers about the murder-suicide case that drove a wedge between her and Navarro.
