Rose is a young tech entrepreneur and cybersecurity expert. She graduated from University of California, Berkeley. Her tech business was hacked after a friend's betrayal. Unable to afford to live by herself, Rose moves in with her aunt Emma and uncle Henry. Rose calls the Night Action desk after her aunt and uncle are attacked.

Throughout The Night Agent
One year ago, Rose is anxiously anticipating giving her first TED talk. A woman gives her some funding documents to sign.

In the present, Rose talks to her aunt Emma and uncle Henry about being bankrupt, due to a data breach at her tech company, which caused her to lose everything. Emma and Henry assure Rose they would help her.

Later that night, Rose overhears her aunt and uncle talking about a mole in the White House, burning documents and something named Osprey. As Rose approaches them, Emma aims a gun at Rose, before realizing who she is. Emma tells Rose someone is outside and refuses to answer Rose's questions. Henry instructs Rose to go to the neighbor's house and call a number, telling them that they needed assistance. While Rose is outside, the intruders kill Emma and Henry.

One of the attackers begin following Rose to the neighbor's house. Once in the house, Rose calls the number, which reaches the phone on Peter Sutherland's desk. Rose pleads for help, telling him that a guy is after her and that her uncle and aunt are in danger. Peter sends police to the house and advises Rose on how to hide from the intruder. Luckily, the police arrive in time to save Rose. The intruder escapes from the window.

Peter informs Diane about the situation. Diane orders Peter to keep Rose safe and not to tell her anything. There is a debrief the next morning.

Jamie Hawkins informs Rose of the news her aunt and uncle had been killed. He is not pleased that Diane had sent Peter to take Rose. Peter drives Rose to his apartment to pick up a few things. He sets up a camera, takes a gun and a burner phone. Rose begins to realize her aunt and uncle lied to her about their jobs. Rose finds newspapers about a disgraced FBI agent who died in a car crash.

Outside Peter's apartment, they are ambushed by 2 Rome Tome fans, who accuse Peter of being behind the metro bombing.

In the car, Peter notices that they were being followed. He orders Rose to call a number on his phone. The man in the car following them begins shooting at their car. They manage to escape and make their way to an AirBnB rented under Peter's friend's name. Inside, Rose finds some female clothes, which Peter explains belonged to his ex-fiancée, Zoe.

The next morning, Peter is kicked out of the debrief because it is above his level. He urges Rose to tell them everything she saw, but as Rose overheard her aunt say someone in the White House was compromised, she refuses to give information during the debrief.

In a flashback to when Rose's company failed 3 months ago, she received a call from their largest customer while she was conducting an interview. He was irate that his business' system had been hacked. She quickly investigated the issue and discovered that Adam had messed with the codes on their end.

In the present, Rose provides Jamie Hawkins and Diane Farr her statement. She is interrogated by Jamie who believes she is hiding something. Jamie doesn't think Peter Sutherland should be protecting Rose, because he's not qualified, but Diane assures him that Peter is ready.

Diane tells Rose she will be taken to a hotel, while being protected under Secret Service security. Till it is safe, she is to stay there.

Peter asks why she withheld information and she reminds him the White House has been compromised. At the hotel, Rose complains about the room being like a jail. Peter sends books to her room.

Peter receives a call from the night action number from Rose, who's feeling lonely. She wants to know if they are making progress on the case. She is reassured by Peter that they are pursuing some new leads. Peter shares with Rose his previous dream of becoming a professional basketball player, while Rose tells him that she was betrayed by a friend. Rose invites Peter to join her for breakfast the following morning.

Peter tells Diane of his plan to have breakfast with Rose. Diane hopes this relationship will help Rose open up.

Peter arrives at the hotel to find the Secret Service agents are gone. The power suddenly goes out. Peter rushes to Rose's room and finds the door is unlocked. They try to flee quickly, but Dale spots them on the steps and starts shooting.

Peter and Rose jump through the glass window and flee into the streets. They go to a clothing store to get new clothes because Rose is only wearing a robe. Ellen fails to find them and gets frustrated.

Peter calls Diane and asks who removed the Secret Service agents. Diane kicks everyone out of the room, except for Ben Almora and Nathan Briggs from the Secret Service. Ben says it's impossible and tells Nathan to investigate, who finds out that a command was issued 30 minutes ago, pulling out the agents. Only the President, Diane, Ben, Nathan, and Jamie have such power. Jamie Hawkins can't be reached, which Rose finds suspicious.

Rose decides to head back to the Campbells' house to investigate what got them killed. At the house, Rose shares with Peter what she heard that evening regarding Osprey, the engineer, and some documents. They said that someone would happen in 7 days and the country would be in trouble. Rose recalls her uncle saying something about a drive in the woods, so they drive there.

Peter tries to persuade Rose during the journey that she doesn't need to do her own investigation because she can trust the FBI. He assures her that he would look after her and avoid a repeat of the incident at the hotel.

At the cabin in the woods, they find a hard drive that has been heavily encrypted. Rose can't access the files. Peter discovers the files are named 2781, which is the number of the train he was riding on when the bomb detonated. He wonders what Rose’s aunt and uncle were doing investigating the metro bombing.
