To Bambi’s surprise, the prison cell where Amber is supposed to be is empty. Confused, he informs his team about the occurrence, and they communicate to work out another plan. Meanwhile, Violeta Matiz gets a call from her colleague about the attack on the Venezuelan border. In the news, it is shown that the Colombian troops have launched an attack on them.
On the other hand, the team faces a difficult situation when the enemies discover the soldier’s locations and attack them with a bazooka. The only defence on their side is dismantled, and hopelessness starts to seep in. Nevertheless, Prince is determined to find Amber and not leave the place empty-handed.
Violeta quickly figures out that the ones attacking Venezuela are not Colombian troops. She realises that the government is being tricked. Eventually, she discovers Bambi and Prince might be behind the sudden attack. However, she is unable to prove it without concrete evidence.
Later, the four members left of the team put pressure on the enemies and reach the cell where Amber is kept. Bambi breaks the walls of the space and finally meets his sister. They both get emotional for a brief time and then leave the area. Prince provides the siblings with extra protection, and they reach the truck and drive off.
As they leave the area, a sudden explosion occurs in the drug rig. The entire place burns to ashes which was a pre-planned attack by the duo, and the episode ends on that note.
Echo 3 Episode 9 Review
The episode was extremely exciting throughout. Since the entire episode was filmed in the dark, it can get a little confusing. However, using intricate weapons, heavy machinery, and high-technology equipment was a great addition. The action sequence was also done seamlessly, and the audience will get a lifelike and close-up battleground experience.
