Next episode
Nothing scheduled
Is it for me?
Puzzle fans who like codes and hidden patterns settle in easily, and the globe-trotting conspiracy suits a quiet evening. One episode replays what you just watched from the NSA side, with Taylah and her boss following Edward on monitors, which changes how the earlier scenes look. Leo Woodall plays him gruff and guarded. A 1994 flashback to a student named Safiya working on primes adds more pieces.
Before you start
The first couple of episodes move slowly while the maths is set up, and from there the story turns into a chase.
