Citadel Episode 4 Review & Recap
Nadia takes Mason/Kyle to Morroco at Manticore’s Black Site location. She’s sure that Carter Spence must be held captive there. The duo has to fight the bad guys before they find Carter. However, Carter isn’t pleased to see Mason and says, “Stay away. You did this.”
The story takes us back in time (10 years ago) when Nadia and Mason are on romantic terms. The duo talk about the masks they hide behind, and Nadia tells him that she hired a new agent in Tier-One. When Nadia and Mason meet the new agent, Celeste, he isn’t sure about her. Celeste is Kyle’s wife, Abby.
The agents discuss another threatening mission and strategise a plan to carry it out. But Mason constantly shares his distrust towards the new agent. But Nadia is very much sure of the new Tier-One spy. Mason explains to her everything she has to change to become a good spy.
Celeste’s mission is to make Anders fall in love with her and get the Oz key. The closer Anders and Celeste get, the more complicated the mission becomes. The narrative then shifts to London, where Mason and Nadia get cosy again. Later, Mason shares his concerns about Celeste with Nadia. But Nadia has full trust in her agent.

So did Celeste betray the Citadel or not? How did she lose her memory and adopt a new identity? We find out in the new episode. The makers have dropped yet another cliffhanger when the narrative shifts to the present timeline for a few seconds.
Both Nadia and Mason are keeping secrets from each other. But their lies and secrets again hinder the main plot. You are left wondering what exactly is the purpose of Citadel, the organisation, and the series.
This is the fourth episode, and we still have no idea what and why everything is happening. The chemistry between Richard Mason and Priyanka Chopra-Jonas is not good in romantic scenes. Even the action scenes don’t pack enough punch.
Final Thoughts
Overall, it’s just another vague and inadequately made episode that doesn’t help us connect any dots. Just like the previous episode, the narrative is stuck. We are again told not to trust Nadia. People in the show keep lying to each other. But why are the makers deceiving us with a stagnant plot?
Episode 4 is now streaming on Prime Video India.
