"Tell Her Everything"
The episode 4 starts with Nadia (Priyanka Chopra Jonas) and Mason (Richard Madden) coming together and kissing each other before they pull out their guns and point them in different directions. Another solid action scene, this one taking place inside the Manticore Black Site, kicks off the show.

This time, Abby (Ashley Cummings), who played the role of Mason's wife in the previous three episodes, is assigned a duty to find a key while Mason and Nadia are on a mission to liberate one of their colleagues from Citadel. After a difficult questioning by Kane as a result of Abby failing to find the key, the latter was instructed to test the company's new memory-wiping technology on her.

hat Nadia may have had a major role in Citadel's downfall as everyone speculates and holds her responsible for something that has not yet been revealed. It emerges that Nadia is aware of the key, despite her desire to keep it a secret.
Citadel eps 4: What Works?
Priyanka Chopra in action is all that works in the episode 4 of Citadel. It's worth seeing for a few minutes of intense pistol and hand-to-hand battle between Chopra's character and a dozen or so Manticore men. It is magnificent to watch Priyanka kick off the knife in midair and ram it with her foot into the throat of the adversary. It's amazing to see how the Russo Brothers prepared the entire scenario with the Indian audience in mind.
Citadel eps 4: What Doesn't Work?
The chemistry between Nadia and Mason looks pale in the fourth episode. The episode slows down for a bit in between which might distract you. The plot in this instance offers nothing intriguing as the makers have invested everything in the characters and their backstory. Well, apart from action-sequences, what is there in the web series to continue?
Citadel eps 4: Cast Performance
Priyanka Chopra is just gorgeous. She is a performer who catches your attention by merely being there in the shot. She is gorgeous when she is acting fierce. Without a sure, she is the most attractive person you'll see on screen.
With Priyanka Chopra taking over episode 4, Mason's character seems sidelined. What he could do was just hide and watch Nadia eliminating the bad guys one by one.
Abby's character in this spi-espionage seems very interesting. Don't go on her innocent face, this girl is a badass. Her action-sequence with Roland Møller (Anders Silje) in the washroom, where she hid the key, deserves an extra point.
Citadel eps 4: Final Verdict
We have all heard the adage "slow and steady wins the race." Citadel, however, is sluggish and unsteady. It provides the audience nothing other than action, which is disappointing. There is nothing particularly noteworthy about it other from Priyanka Chopra and Ashley Cummings' action scenes, but if you are curious about what occurs after episode 3, don't hold back.
