Summary
That mission in Denver:
The one where Mac and Jack got locked in a room with a camera, again.
Or, the one where the Phoenix team totally averted the zombie apocalypse (according to Jack, at least--and he actually might have a point).
Or, the one (besides Cairo) that Mac really, really doesn't want to talk about.
An evil scientist, a zombie drug, a locked room. This should be interesting...

Summary
Even though Mac knows it's fake, watching Jack bleeding out from a bullet wound is enough to toss him. Knowing that he's the one holding the gun is a whole new can of worms.
And that's not including the literal can of worms in the corner.
