[WARNING: The following story contains spoilers from the midseason premiere of Covert Affairs. Read at your own risk.]
Jai packed his bags — but he didn’t go to Phoenix.
Instead, he moved down the hall on the Covert Affairs midseason premiere into his new, swanky digs as director of special projects for the director of national intelligence — just like he had planned.
Covert Affairs‘ Sendhil Ramamurthy: Jai becomes a force to be reckoned with
Taking matters into his own hands for once, after Joan’s shoddy reassignment in the summer finale, Jai (Sendhi Ramamurthy) slyly worked everyone like any good CIA officer would. He pestered his old frat brother into having him deposed in the Intelligence Committee’s investigation into the CIA leak and made sure his dad Henry (Gregory Itzin) — aka the leak and hardly the apple of the agency’s eye — got wind of that. That ultimately forced Henry to pull “all” of his strings to get Jai the new gig.
So what does the director of special projects do? And what does this mean for Joan (Kari Matchett), Arthur (Peter Gallagher), Annie (Piper Perabo), Auggie (Christopher Gorham) and, of course, Henry? Ramamurthy answers our burning questions about the twist and makes a promise for Season 3.
