After finally cornering Troy, Archer learns that Troy has planted a bomb that will destroy the entire city of Los Angeles. The only person who knows its location is Troy's brother, Pollux, who refuses to talk. In a desperate attempt to extract the information, Archer undergoes a special operation where his face is surgically replaced with Troy's. Now disguised as Troy, Archer infiltrates the prison to communicate with Pollux.
However, Troy unexpectedly wakes up from his coma and discovers what has happened. Seeking revenge, he undergoes the same surgery to take on Archer's face. With their identities switched, Archer finds himself trapped in Troy's persona and must stop him before he ruins not only Archer's mission, but also his personal life.
