About the show
======================================================
Damien Scott, a former U.S. Special Forces operative, joins forces with a stealth British military unit, Section 20, to stop a resourceful international terrorist group that has planned an attack. Scott, who is familiar with the terrorists, has good instincts and skills, but his cockiness puts him at odds with the more-formal British team, particularly by-the-book Sgt. Michael Stonebridge. The team leader, Col. Eleanor Grant, is a smart military leader who is skilled in diplomacy but knows when to break a rule or two. (Source: zap2it)
A high-octane, globe-spanning thriller with storylines ripped from today's headlines, Strike Back, Cinemax network's first original primetime series in more than 15 years, focuses on two members of a top-secret intelligence agency known as Section 20: Michael Stonebridge, a British sergeant on the elite counter-terrorism team, and Damien Scott, a former U.S. Delta Force operative who was discharged on the eve of the U.S. invasion of Iraq. Stonebridge, Scott and the rest of Section 20 criss-cross the globe on the trail of a deadly international terrorist named Latif, who is planning a major attack involving a cache of WMD that could have global repercussions.

3x01 -- Aug 17, 2012 -- In Lahore, Pakistan, on the trail of rogue Pakistani intelligence officer-turned-terrorist Latif, Section 20 operative John Porter has been snatched, and is forced to make a ransom video demand for his own release. Sgt. Michael Stonebridge and intel analyst Cpt. Kate Marshall head up the rescue team, but Latif is one step ahead of them - Porter has been moved.
Unable to locate her man, Section 20 head Col. Eleanor Grant tasks Stonebridge to recruit the one person who can identify Porter's kidnapper, American mercenary Damien Scott, a former Delta Force Commando who was discharged on the eve of the Iraq war -- and who is currently wasting his combative talents as a cage fighter in Malaysia. Stonebridge aids Scott's escape from local gangsters and the two soldiers form an instant, if testy bond. But as soon as Scott arrives in Section 20, video is uploaded to them of the execution of John Porter at Latif's hand.
As Scott reviews the footage, he realizes that Porter may have been communicating coded intelligence regarding Latif and something called Project Dawn. Scott, Stonebridge and the rest of Section 20 head to the Delhi hotel Porter identified within his coded message, but quickly find themselves trapped on the inside of a terrorist siege.
