*Spoilers Ahead* 

Tehran Season 2 Episode 7 begins with Faraz fleeing the scene where he shot Ali. Tamar remembers why she’s doing all of this and focuses her attention on Betty, the hackable automobile. After the bungled tennis court incident, she aims to utilize this as a key to stopping The General. Tamar works on planting the bug while Milad lurks in the background, keeping Peyman occupied in his opulent home. When Peyman’s ex, Yasaman, turns up, the whole plot is jeopardized. Given the unpredictability of the scenario, Amir insists Milad cease bugging the car and exit.

So, Tamar’s only option now is to attend the huge party that night and bug the car there. When things appear to be in jeopardy, Marjan goes to Faraz’s house and asks for his assistance. She has photographic evidence of him murdering Ali and has threatened to pass it on to The General’s troops unless he cooperates. Faraz appears under the alias Mr. Kamali, acting on Peyman’s behalf. Faraz reveals that Ali was on the verge of revealing Tamar’s cover as they got into the car together.

Faraz eventually decides to play ball after exchanging ideas and morals with Marjan, but he assures her that if he goes down, she will go down with him. After traveling over to The General’s house in Betty, Mohammadi reveals that he has been working on a new car, one that is significantly more powerful. Tamar takes advantage of the opportunity to flee, putting the bug in the new car instead of Betty’s. Tamar, on the other hand, has really bugged the wrong car, as this alternate is for Peyman, not The General. 

By the end, they’re in a tight predicament because they can’t manage Mohammadi’s car right now. Milad resists Tamar’s pleas and decides to take charge of Peyman’s automobile while the father/son team heads out for a race around the twisty roads, despite Tamar’s warnings. Everything goes wrong, the brakes fail, and Peyman falls to his death off the cliff. The operation is a colossal failure, the General is still alive, and Tamar is trapped in the midst of the chaos.
