Synopsis
The episode opens in a crowded D.C. metro station, where Jake, Kyle and a slew of agents are keeping an eye out for terrorists. Jake spots a guy dropping bomb into a trash bin, and takes off after the perp. However, once he catches up with him, Jake is shocked to see the terrorist is just a kid.

Back at Ft. Meade, Lou's heretofore unseen boss, Chief Director Skerrit, appears to personally congratulate Jake on a job well done capturing a member of Ethan Fulton's militia. When Jake gets home that night, he is freaked to find his door open and attacks his prowler, only to find his kid brother, Jerry, has dropped by for an unplanned visit. Jerry is directionless—unless that direction leads to a bar and some fake I.D.. Little Brother keeps Jake up all night almost burning down Jake's apartment. Jake is exhausted when he shows up at Diane's lab the next day. She is concerned that he might be feeling after-effects of the previous episode's "reboot". "Since you saved my life?" Jake reminds her, and then goes on a tear about Jerry's behaviour. At age 19, Jake was an over-achiever, holding down two part-time jobs while taking 18 credits at Georgetown. He just doesn't understand Jerry. Diane is sympathetic—and when Jake leaves, wistful.

The would be bomber turns out to be Ethan Fulton's only son, Caleb. Jake attempts to talk to Caleb, being very frank and sincere about what ricin gas does to innocent families and children, but Caleb stays firm. He refuses to betray his father or the beliefs he was raised with. Meanwhile, Ethan Fulton is not a happy camper. It seems the NSA got a bead on him when a poor schmuck loyal to the cause forgot to encrypt a transmission. Merciless, Ethan shoots schmuck in the head, and then decides to find out all he can about the agent who took in his son. Jake has taken the night off to spend with Jerry, however Jerry has other ideas. Trying to "help" his brother, Jerry has invited Sarah over for an intimate dinner for three. After Jerry spends most of the night regaling Sarah with embarrassing childhood stories about Jake, Jerry makes up a touching Christmas story about a stolen Huffy and Big Brother's taking the fall for the kid, to try and help Jake get into Sarah's pants. His work there done, Jerry takes off—palming Jake's wallet and keys as he goes—for a local Georgetown bar where Jerry pretends to be Jake, drinks, and makes up wild stories about being a Secret Agent in order to land chicks.

Lou has a moment with Caleb—who tries to get to Lou by asking her pointed questions about her personal life. No husband, no kids? He pities her, and Lou assures him the feeling is mutual. With Jerry gone and pizza ordered, Jake fesses up to Jerry's lie re: the Great Bike Story. Sarah, having finally woken up and smelled the hottie that is Agent Foley, tells him that she doesn't need any more reasons to like him, and to Jake's surprise, kisses him. The moment is interrupted by the phone—Jerry is in trouble. The trouble turns out to be a moving violation—Jerry hit a cop car with Jake's car. Jake finally loses it and huge sibling argument ensues, resulting in Jerry admitting he's dropped out of junior college to make amateur webcam porn, and Jake heading home to clean up the mess Jerry left behind. However, Fulton traced Jake's credit card to the bar, and sends his thugs to nab "Jake." They get Jerry instead, and contact the NSA to arrange a trade. Lou and Skerrit tell a frantic Jake that the NSA does not negotiate with terrorists. However, in the hall, Lou reminds Jake that she can't do anything, but implies that he can. With his boss's pseudo-blessing, Jake uses the nanites to spirit Caleb out of NSA headquarters and gets him to lead him straight to Fulton and Jerry.

Fulton is a man of his word, and is going to let Jake and Jerry go—however, Jake has led the NSA straight to their hideout. In the gunfight, Caleb is killed and the remaining members of the militia brought in. It's a fantastic day's work for the NSA, but Skerrit questions her decision to let Jake trade the kid for his family. Lou stands firm, pointing out that they didn't negotiate. Skerrit is amused that she has a bigger pair than he does. A contrite Jerry heads back to school, and Jake promises to cover for him with their parents.
