Michael is desperate for a last minute fix after Fi is taken out - when he has a forgotten favor repaid, and is given a pointed reminder of what's really important, by a strange man with a blue box.

A badly beaten stranger comes to Michael for help, but he's more than he seems to be. In exchange for him, a foreign agency offers Michael his life back. Author's Note: Takes place after Burn Notice's "Rough Seas" and Doctor Who's "Doomsday".
