Ao quinto episódio, lançamo-nos à espionagem feminina ao longo da História. Objetivo da missão: revelar papéis preponderantes de mulheres na resolução de grandes conflitos, recorrendo à Antiguidade e à extraordinária Josephine Baker (essa mesmo); lembrando as corajosas Mildred Harnack e Virginia Hall no combate pela Liberdade, mesmo no coração do nazismo; e ainda espreitando (QED) o extraordinário caso das D Day Girls, fundamentais para o desembarque aliado na Normandia e para a Europa que conhecemos - e vivemos - hoje.
