Michael remains in the same truck he drove into (at the conclusion of season 1); awaiting his desired meeting with those who burned him. Instead, however, the truck drops him off at the site of a recent gun battle - where Michael finds a hog-tied man and two dead bodies. He receives a call from the woman - identifying herself as Carla; who orders Michael to help the man - named Jimmy (Patrick Fischler), steal data on the operations of a private military company named "Security Associates" - a corporation which, essentially, offers mercenaries for hire; where Jimmy was employed to install its information security system. As collateral, Carla has taken Jimmy's family hostage to ensure Michael will complete the job. With these "incentives" in mind, Michael, after getting the promise of a face-to-face meeting with Carla, agrees. Returning to Miami, Michael reconnects with Sam and Fiona and, after convincing Jimmy to work together, is given an introduction by Jimmy to Ryder Stahl (James C. Burns), where Michael poses as a businessman who needs some muscle to extract diamonds from a hotly contested area in Africa. This allows Michael to get a preview of the security measures in the building, and discovers a soft spot to break into to steal the data. Michael and Jimmy are successful in their task, though the alarm is tripped accidentally by Jimmy and both are exposed by Ryder. After escaping, Michael lays a trap for Ryder and his men by tricking them into thinking Jimmy is dead (via an explosion on a yacht he is apparently on), thus they stop hunting him and are forced to deal with the police. Jimmy then departs to Argentina and is reunited with his family. Later on, Michael meets Carla (although he does not realize this, as Carla did not initially identify herself when Michael saw her). 
"Turn and Burn"
Michael meets Carla (Tricia Helfer) again, this time for a proper face-to-face meeting. Carla, taking on the role of his new handler, orders Michael to duplicate an advanced keycard badge for unknown reasons; specifically by taking the card to Nefzi (Erick Avari), one of the greatest known counterfeiters, and paying him for the job. Meanwhile, Michael is introduced, by Sam, to Sophia (Jacqueline Piñol), a young waitress who is being stalked by a man named Raul (Kevin Alejandro). With more investigation, Michael discovers that Raul is involved in major narcotics trafficking, and Sophia is actually a DEA agent who has been working undercover to build a case against the whole drug organization. Michael agrees to un-officially help Sophia (as, being burned, she could go to jail for getting Michael involved in government business). Michael poses as a "facilitator" for drug shipping, formerly employed by the organizations' Mexican rivals, and approaches Raul with the offer to work for him, and tell him about weaknesses he spotted in the operation in exchange for money. Unfortunately, this catches the interest of the crime boss, Campos (Mario Ernesto Sánchez). Changing plans, Michael frames Raul for trying to kill Campos, and Campos, convinced, orders his men to hunt Raul down; leading Raul to turn himself in to the DEA and cooperate with them in exchange for his safety. After this, Michael receives the counterfeit badges, and makes efforts to find out what the badges are for. Unfortunately, Carla's organization has Nefzi killed before he can find out (though nevertheless, Michael secretly retains one of the badges). Later, while turning the other badges over to Carla, she lets slip she can speak fluent Arabic with a Kurdish accent; giving Michael a new direction in his investigation. 
"Trust Me"
Michael follows up on the lead on Carla, by going to the Miami Pakistani Consulate and, while Sam creates a distraction that draws the attention of the head consul (Fawad Siddiqui) and the head of security; Waseem Ali Khan (Assaf Cohen) - who is also really a spy, Michael successfully steals several semi-important documents and later threatens Waseem that he will release them to the highest bidder if he doesn't use his connections to look for any trace of Carla's presence in Kurdistan; though Waseem is prepared to take the chance Michael will do so or not. Meanwhile, Michael and Fiona (reluctantly) work together to help Andy (Michael Naughton) recover the money he had been lent by a loan shark; Baranski, from a flashy conman named Zeke (Patrick Fabian) who Andy fell victim to when Zeke tricked him into investing in a fictitious night club in Cuba. Michael poses as a Texan wealthy playboy whom Zeke decides to make his new mark. While struggling for time from Baranski, Michael, in the end, successfully cons Zeke into giving him the money and so, while Zeke is left at the mercy of his irate "partners", Michael turns over the money to Baranski, who backs off. Michael ultimately succeeds in gaining information from Waseem after framing him for, apparently, taking bribes, which could destroy his career, or at least get him re-assigned (which Waseem is afraid of, as he has grown to appreciate the luxuries his posting in Miami has brought him). Waseem hands Michael a dossier of Carla's work when she was an operative in Kurdistan in exchange for the fabricated proof. Michael also tells his mother that he and Fiona are no longer together. 
"Comrades"
Michael reviews the dossier he received on Carla and discovers Carla was an "irrigation consultant" as her cover in Kurdistan. He dispatches Sam to investigate all of the irrigation consultants in Miami, but to do so, Sam will need to get the information from Harvey Gunderson (Larry Miller), a well-connected Miami politician. Meanwhile, Michael's brother, Nate has returned to Miami and asks for Michael's help with his friend Katya (Emily Foxler). Katya tells Michael that her sister; Elena, was kidnapped by the Russian mafia after Katya couldn't pay what they demanded in exchange for bringing Elena into the United States, and intend to kill her. Fiona kidnaps Ivan Petrov (Andrew Divoff), the man in charge of the Russian mafia's human trafficking in Miami, and then make it appear to him he is being held by the CIA while they have compromised and are currently dismantling his organization. Sam and Nate play the CIA agents, while Michael poses as "Sergei Yablonovich"; the head of another branch of the trafficking organization supposedly based in Tampa; and also under the employ of Ivan's boss Takarov. After convincing Ivan their organization is steadily being dismantled by the CIA; they stage an escape and Michael convinces Ivan to take him to where the kidnapped women are being kept, and, while Michael, Sam and Fiona stage a rescue, Ivan is set up to be killed for Takarov for, apparently, selling out the organization to the CIA. Initially, Sam's attempts on getting information from Gunderson are foiled as Gunderson subtly knows he is being played, though in the end changes tactics and poses as a DEA agent looking for information on a drug-related operation, and, after threatening to have Gunderson's career ruined for not cooperating, Gunderson, who greatly enjoys the fruits of his many political positions, panics and capitulates. From Gunderson, Sam learns of Carla's cover in Miami - her full name is Carla Baxter and she is posing as an aquifer specialist. Michael and Fiona begin surveillance of the address listed on Carla's business card.
