Crisis season 1 episode 1

Pilot

 
It's field trip day for the students of Ballard High School, a place that educates the children of Washington, D.C.'s elite: top-of-their-industry CEOs, international diplomats, political power players and even the president's son. But when their bus is ambushed on a secluded rural road, the teenagers and their chaperones are taken, igniting a national crisis. The country's most powerful parents are now at the mercy of one vengeful mastermind, and with nowhere to turn and no one to trust, this unthinkable scenario grows from the select families at risk to an entire nation at stake.
