Next Week: Prey (Hulu)

On this weeks Episode Will & Ian are forced into a game of Cat and mouse. Ian, a former criminal turned super secret, very specialized government spy who takes life WAY too seriously

and Will, a Sociopath freelancer, willing to do whatever is necessary to get the job done, no matter the lives lost of property destroyed. He also has a sense of humor.
