The pilot follows the aftermath of a terrorist event that rocks Washington, D.C. LaPaglia will play Coach Holden Weller, an intense, high school football coach/athletic director in Virginia — who happens to be a retired, well-respected CIA operative. When the attack happens, Weller is pulled back into action to investigate closer to home where the next generation of terrorists are being bred.
