00:00:06.000 --> 00:00:07.500
Previously on The Recruit:

00:00:07.583 --> 00:00:09.864
- New guys get the shit work.
- The hell is this?

00:00:09.916 --> 00:00:11.926
People graymail the CIA.

00:00:11.927 --> 00:00:14.439
Vet the letters,
see if the author can back up the threat.

00:00:14.440 --> 00:00:17.666
My name is Max Meladze.
I'm in prison in Phoenix.

00:00:17.750 --> 00:00:19.833
Get me out or I will spill agency secrets.

00:00:19.916 --> 00:00:21.958
Sir, she clearly knows
classified information.

00:00:22.041 --> 00:00:25.208
Selby Shaw is a pseudonym
for Dawn Gilbane.

00:00:25.291 --> 00:00:27.083
- Where is she?
- How do I get to Yemen?

00:00:27.166 --> 00:00:28.825
Travel coach. Rent an economy car.

00:00:28.958 --> 00:00:31.000
I'm not a spy, I am a lawyer.

00:00:31.083 --> 00:00:33.916
- God!
- I think you're here to investigate us.

00:00:34.000 --> 00:00:35.875
Oh, *!

00:00:35.958 --> 00:00:37.250
Asset's name is Max Meladze.

00:00:37.333 --> 00:00:40.333
That somebody would hip-pocket
a girl like that should scare you.

00:00:40.416 --> 00:00:41.916
I have classified CIA documents.

00:00:42.000 --> 00:00:44.625
- They're in a storage locker.
- We'll take the bag.

00:00:46.291 --> 00:00:48.708
Who the * *y-traps a bag with acid?

00:00:48.791 --> 00:00:49.791
A survivor.

00:00:49.875 --> 00:00:52.875
So I spent the afternoon
going through your social media.

00:00:52.958 --> 00:00:55.333
Now I know every woman you've dated.

00:00:55.416 --> 00:00:57.958
I feel that her threat
of graymail is credible.

00:00:58.041 --> 00:01:00.583
I'm gonna ask you one question.
Can I trust you?

00:01:00.666 --> 00:01:02.666
- When our interests align.
- I'm in.

00:01:48.666 --> 00:01:52.375
Your black cash,
clean as a whistle.

00:01:53.416 --> 00:01:54.916
Where is my treat?

00:01:55.541 --> 00:01:57.041
On his way.

00:01:57.250 --> 00:01:58.541
I don't like to wait.

00:01:58.625 --> 00:02:02.458
Sometimes, waiting is the best part.

00:02:03.000 --> 00:02:04.583
I hate the opera.

00:02:04.666 --> 00:02:06.541
I'm wheels up for Moscow at intermission.

00:02:06.625 --> 00:02:08.916
The deputy has his nuts in a twist
about Havana.

00:02:09.000 --> 00:02:11.208
He's threatening to send Guryev down here.

00:02:11.875 --> 00:02:13.583
Don't worry.

00:02:29.541 --> 00:02:31.583
You're late. He's in a mood.

00:02:32.250 --> 00:02:33.750
He's always in a mood.

00:02:37.291 --> 00:02:38.833
What's wrong?

00:02:40.583 --> 00:02:42.125
I'm not supposed to say.

00:02:45.666 --> 00:02:47.625
The council is meeting about you.

00:02:51.125 --> 00:02:52.625
Do you know why?

00:02:57.250 --> 00:02:59.666
I'm sure I can smooth it over.

00:03:03.208 --> 00:03:04.708
How do I look?

00:03:06.166 --> 00:03:07.666
Like a movie star.

00:03:21.250 --> 00:03:22.291
Yes.

00:03:22.375 --> 00:03:25.208
You got a problem.
The Obshchak put a price on your head.

00:03:25.291 --> 00:03:28.541
- They're coming to kill you.
- They found out I'm spying?

00:03:29.208 --> 00:03:32.000
No. As far as we can tell,
they don't know you work for us.

00:03:32.083 --> 00:03:35.541
You just got too ambitious too fast.
Stepped on the wrong toes.

00:04:00.208 --> 00:04:01.291
Go away.

00:04:01.375 --> 00:04:03.000
I can fix this.

00:04:03.083 --> 00:04:05.375
No. You can run or you can die.

00:04:10.508 --> 00:04:12.091
End of the road, Max.

00:04:13.416 --> 00:04:16.833
- You've been paid extra to make it hurt.
- No. That part's for free.

00:05:08.141 --> 00:05:09.641
Still with us?

00:05:12.016 --> 00:05:13.516
Yes.

00:05:15.725 --> 00:05:18.683
- You have to help me.
- I don't have to do anything.

00:05:18.766 --> 00:05:20.266
You're not my asset.

00:05:20.391 --> 00:05:23.141
But you got me out of a jam once.
So I'll return the favor.

00:05:23.225 --> 00:05:25.850
There's an exit package waiting for you
at the airport.

00:05:25.933 --> 00:05:29.641
- A place for you lay low in the U.S.
- But I don't want to go to America.

00:05:29.725 --> 00:05:31.600
Okay. I'm hanging up now.

00:05:31.683 --> 00:05:33.183
Wait.

00:05:34.725 --> 00:05:36.225
I'll go.

00:05:36.433 --> 00:05:37.933
But don't abandon me.

00:05:39.558 --> 00:05:41.238
Would you like to leave a message?

00:05:41.266 --> 00:05:44.683
No, I have already left a dozen messages.

00:05:45.725 --> 00:05:48.683
Look, you've had me trapped here
in this shithole for over a month.

00:05:48.766 --> 00:05:51.558
I'm sorry, ma'am. Without a name,
there's nothing I can do.

00:05:51.641 --> 00:05:53.766
The CIA has thousands of employees.

00:05:53.850 --> 00:05:57.391
He's a spy, you * idiot.
I don't know his real name.

00:05:58.391 --> 00:06:00.975
And I know things. Secret things.

00:06:01.516 --> 00:06:05.141
Yes, ma'am. Please hold
while I send you to general voicemail.

00:06:25.891 --> 00:06:28.808
- You were subpoenaed by the Senate?
- Yesterday.

00:06:30.183 --> 00:06:31.975
They spelled your name wrong.

00:06:32.058 --> 00:06:34.891
If only that meant that I could ignore it.

00:06:34.975 --> 00:06:39.058
Oh, you can. If you wanna go to jail
for contempt of Congress.

00:06:40.058 --> 00:06:43.558
Owen, this is serious.
You've been at the agency for a week,

00:06:43.641 --> 00:06:45.881
and already pissed off
the Senate Intelligence Committee.

00:06:45.891 --> 00:06:48.183
That's the least of my issues.

00:06:48.683 --> 00:06:50.183
What does that mean?

00:06:50.516 --> 00:06:52.641
Yo, what's going on?

00:06:52.725 --> 00:06:55.016
Owen is in over his head again.

00:06:57.475 --> 00:07:00.391
- Such an overachiever. Way to go, buddy.
- Thanks, man.

00:07:00.475 --> 00:07:03.100
If you're not gonna take this seriously,
then neither am I.

00:07:03.183 --> 00:07:05.058
Hey, innocent question.

00:07:05.725 --> 00:07:08.766
Did your firm teach you
how to deal with a client you can't trust?

00:07:08.850 --> 00:07:11.433
Your client is the CIA.

00:07:12.516 --> 00:07:13.350
Yeah.

00:07:13.433 --> 00:07:16.683
Isn't that a question
for your supervisors or coworkers?

00:07:19.016 --> 00:07:21.701
- You don't trust them either.
- Owen, this isn't law school.

00:07:21.725 --> 00:07:24.141
You can't just roll in
and ace the exam last minute.

00:07:24.225 --> 00:07:27.725
- Not when the stakes are this high.
- It's worked for me until now.

00:07:27.808 --> 00:07:29.100
Has it?

00:07:29.183 --> 00:07:30.350
Look, just...

00:07:30.433 --> 00:07:32.808
Higher stakes make it more challenging.

00:07:32.891 --> 00:07:35.451
But the bottom line is,
it's no different than any other problem.

00:07:35.475 --> 00:07:39.141
So as soon as I figure out the system,
I'll be able to navigate the obstacles.

00:07:39.225 --> 00:07:42.766
He'll just gonna run headfirst into
those obstacles if we don't help him.

00:07:42.850 --> 00:07:45.058
I think the correct term is "enable."

00:07:46.266 --> 00:07:48.850
Okay. Job number one
is to protect yourself.

00:07:48.933 --> 00:07:52.266
The only way to do that
is to do your homework for once.

00:07:52.350 --> 00:07:54.830
If you can find the truth,
it won't matter if your client lies.

00:07:54.850 --> 00:07:57.641
- And don't ask what is truth.
- Wasn't going to.

00:07:57.725 --> 00:08:01.350
- So knowledge is power. Got it.
- Nope. Knowledge is leverage.

00:08:05.516 --> 00:08:07.016
Hannah.

00:08:07.475 --> 00:08:09.433
Oh, Hannah!

00:08:11.308 --> 00:08:13.225
Where are you? Hey... Oh! Hi.

00:08:13.308 --> 00:08:16.350
Do you have any more Adderall
that you can spare?

00:08:16.433 --> 00:08:17.350
It's not for me.

00:08:17.433 --> 00:08:19.933
You mean besides
half the bottle you've already stolen?

00:08:20.016 --> 00:08:21.975
"Stolen" is such an ugly word.

00:08:22.058 --> 00:08:24.475
Seriously, it's for a coworker.
Don't make it weird.

00:08:24.975 --> 00:08:27.933
Okay, fine.
Just take the bottle. But that's it.

00:08:28.016 --> 00:08:30.058
After this, I *y-trap my purse.

00:08:35.641 --> 00:08:37.433
You're the best. Thank you.

00:08:37.516 --> 00:08:39.891
- Yeah.
- I'll see you tonight or tomorrow.

00:08:40.391 --> 00:08:43.725
Maybe two days. I should probably pack
an overnight, just in case.

00:08:58.808 --> 00:08:59.808
Hello!

00:08:59.850 --> 00:09:01.475
Where's my money?

00:09:02.058 --> 00:09:03.683
How'd you get this number?

00:09:03.766 --> 00:09:05.600
Where the * is my money?

00:09:05.683 --> 00:09:09.433
I told you to leave it in a bag
and put it in the garbage can

00:09:09.516 --> 00:09:11.100
so my associate could retrieve it.

00:09:11.183 --> 00:09:13.100
- And I did.
- You're lying.

00:09:13.183 --> 00:09:15.683
But you're good at it,
we have that in common.

00:09:15.766 --> 00:09:17.558
Yeah. You're a criminal and a murderer.

00:09:17.641 --> 00:09:20.121
So I'm not really looking to identify
things we have in common.

00:09:20.183 --> 00:09:22.016
Plus, ever since I've met you,

00:09:22.100 --> 00:09:24.808
I have been chased,
tortured, and subpoenaed,

00:09:24.891 --> 00:09:26.766
which I'm discovering are real turn-offs.

00:09:26.850 --> 00:09:29.010
And yet, things are only gonna get
more painful for you

00:09:29.016 --> 00:09:31.725
if you don't get me the * out of here.

00:09:31.808 --> 00:09:34.641
I'm working on it. It's not like
I'm fixing a speeding ticket.

00:09:34.725 --> 00:09:36.445
It would make my life
a hell of a lot easier

00:09:36.475 --> 00:09:39.225
if I knew what classified information
you're threatening to reveal.

00:09:39.308 --> 00:09:41.016
What operations were you even involved in?

00:09:41.100 --> 00:09:44.891
Owen, you want me to tell you that
information over an unsecured cell phone?

00:09:44.975 --> 00:09:47.600
No. But I'll fly to you.
I'll come right now.

00:09:47.683 --> 00:09:51.891
No. The next time I see you,
you'll be driving me away from here.

00:09:51.975 --> 00:09:54.600
Otherwise, you'll be getting
all your answers from CNN.

00:09:54.683 --> 00:09:56.225
Wait...

00:10:01.266 --> 00:10:02.766
Excuse me. Excuse me.

00:10:03.308 --> 00:10:05.141
Is this the Records Department?

00:10:07.475 --> 00:10:10.808
Amazing. Owen Hendricks.
I'm with the General Counsel's office.

00:10:10.891 --> 00:10:12.391
I need some help with my homework.

00:10:13.058 --> 00:10:15.183
- I gotta run a records search.
- Lucky me.

00:10:15.266 --> 00:10:17.141
Yeah. Question, if I ran a name

00:10:17.225 --> 00:10:19.808
by Clandestine Services yesterday
and they came up empty,

00:10:19.891 --> 00:10:23.141
do I have a reason to believe that you
might give me a different answer today?

00:10:23.225 --> 00:10:26.390
Possibly. Certain high-level classified
material's kept out of the main database.

00:10:26.391 --> 00:10:30.058
You mean the stuff they try to hide,
the really *ed-up shit?

00:10:30.141 --> 00:10:31.641
No comment.

00:10:31.850 --> 00:10:33.350
How do I run a name?

00:10:34.475 --> 00:10:38.350
Fill out forms 1117A, 2061H, and 3108F

00:10:38.433 --> 00:10:40.850
and get signatures in triplicate
from your supervisor.

00:10:42.141 --> 00:10:44.850
- Uh, do you have...?
- I'm kidding. What's the name?

00:10:45.808 --> 00:10:48.558
Last name is Meladze. M-E-L-A-D-Z-E.

00:10:48.641 --> 00:10:50.141
First name is Maxine.

00:10:50.641 --> 00:10:52.600
- Also known as Max.
- What region?

00:10:52.683 --> 00:10:54.183
Eastern Europe.

00:10:59.516 --> 00:11:01.766
Should I just...
Do you want me to wait here?

00:11:02.641 --> 00:11:04.766
This computer was built in 1996,

00:11:04.850 --> 00:11:07.558
and I'm gonna have to dig through
hard files even if I get a hit.

00:11:07.641 --> 00:11:10.141
So, why don't you write down
your contact info

00:11:10.225 --> 00:11:12.850
and if anything comes up,
we'll deliver it to your office.

00:11:15.975 --> 00:11:17.475
He's coming.

00:11:19.558 --> 00:11:21.058
No, he's not.

00:11:23.766 --> 00:11:25.266
Yes, he is.

00:11:27.808 --> 00:11:31.308
Guys, this is my office.
You know that, right? Mine.

00:11:31.975 --> 00:11:34.391
We're here to extend an olive branch.

00:11:34.475 --> 00:11:36.725
We felt like we didn't
prepare you well for Yemen,

00:11:36.808 --> 00:11:40.016
and word is you're in over your head
with this graymail case.

00:11:40.100 --> 00:11:42.850
- Yeah? Who told you that?
- It's not important.

00:11:42.933 --> 00:11:47.141
But what is important is that you feel
you have the tools you need to succeed.

00:11:47.225 --> 00:11:49.141
So how can we help?

00:11:50.475 --> 00:11:53.558
Super nice of you guys,
but I'm all set, for now.

00:11:53.641 --> 00:11:54.808
Good. Good.

00:11:54.891 --> 00:11:58.225
Because if you need anything,
we are here to support you.

00:11:58.725 --> 00:11:59.808
Yep. Thank you.

00:11:59.891 --> 00:12:00.891
Oh, and...

00:12:00.975 --> 00:12:03.600
Lester and I,
we were actually talking earlier,

00:12:03.683 --> 00:12:07.850
and we realized you probably
haven't had the dating conversation yet.

00:12:08.766 --> 00:12:12.850
Actually, Mom and Dad, they covered that
thoroughly in sixth-grade *-ed.

00:12:12.933 --> 00:12:14.433
So...

00:12:14.725 --> 00:12:16.016
No, no.

00:12:16.100 --> 00:12:18.808
We just wanna teach you
how this place works.

00:12:18.891 --> 00:12:20.058
- Why?
- Paperwork.

00:12:20.141 --> 00:12:22.016
Or to avoid paperwork.

00:12:22.100 --> 00:12:26.225
There's onerous reporting requirements
for any personal interaction.

00:12:26.308 --> 00:12:27.850
I thought that was for foreigners?

00:12:27.933 --> 00:12:31.391
No, it's anyone with whom you have
close and continuing contact.

00:12:31.475 --> 00:12:34.141
And that means without a condom.

00:12:34.225 --> 00:12:37.350
- You always wear a condom, right?
- Wearing one now.

00:12:38.100 --> 00:12:39.225
Okay.

00:12:39.308 --> 00:12:41.933
So Lester and I
have worked here for a while,

00:12:42.016 --> 00:12:43.975
and we know most of the single women.

00:12:44.058 --> 00:12:46.225
We can help you steer clear of the loons.

00:12:46.308 --> 00:12:50.141
Love that. I'll make sure to call you guys
first if I get back in the game.

00:12:50.225 --> 00:12:54.100
Great. Um, and it is staff meeting time.

00:12:54.183 --> 00:12:56.100
- It's your first, right?
- Yeah.

00:12:57.225 --> 00:12:59.016
- Nice.
- Why?

00:12:59.100 --> 00:12:59.933
Why?

00:13:00.016 --> 00:13:01.433
Goddamn it!

00:13:01.516 --> 00:13:03.016
Who did it?

00:13:05.308 --> 00:13:07.933
Which one of you
*ed the pooch this time?

00:13:14.641 --> 00:13:16.141
Just kidding.

00:13:17.891 --> 00:13:19.641
Good poker faces, everybody.

00:13:21.975 --> 00:13:23.641
Except for you, Maeson.

00:13:24.641 --> 00:13:26.975
- I could see you pucker up.
- Sorry, sir.

00:13:27.058 --> 00:13:28.850
N-L-T-S-Y-P.

00:13:29.516 --> 00:13:31.016
"Never...

00:13:31.183 --> 00:13:32.683
Let Them See You Pucker."

00:13:35.141 --> 00:13:36.641
Okay.

00:13:37.058 --> 00:13:40.391
Violet, what's the latest
on the thing with those people?

00:13:41.058 --> 00:13:46.058
Our friend in the place says there may be
heavy seas ahead, but no storm.

00:13:46.141 --> 00:13:50.058
Good. Salazar, any problems
with the framing on those deliverables?

00:13:50.141 --> 00:13:50.975
Not so far.

00:13:51.058 --> 00:13:52.850
Our friend is hearing whispers

00:13:52.933 --> 00:13:55.891
that the element
we were worried about didn't materialize.

00:13:55.975 --> 00:13:57.475
Good, keep an eye on it.

00:13:58.391 --> 00:14:00.766
Our friend might be working
a different agenda.

00:14:01.558 --> 00:14:05.808
Janus, why am I hearing about
upset stomachs in camel country?

00:14:07.975 --> 00:14:09.475
Hey.

00:14:10.350 --> 00:14:11.558
Knock it off.

00:14:11.641 --> 00:14:13.599
Nobody's buying the narcolepsy crap.

00:14:13.600 --> 00:14:15.558
I don't care what your doctor's note says.

00:14:15.641 --> 00:14:17.016
Is this thing gonna be a problem?

00:14:17.100 --> 00:14:21.808
Sir, I am unaware of anything going on
in the region that you mentioned.

00:14:21.891 --> 00:14:24.350
Let me do my due diligence,
and I will get right back to you.

00:14:24.433 --> 00:14:28.058
- * that, just fix it.
- Mm-hm. All right. Yes, sir.

00:14:28.725 --> 00:14:30.225
Hendricks.

00:14:30.350 --> 00:14:32.141
Any more definition on that...

00:14:32.766 --> 00:14:34.266
squeaky wheel?

00:14:35.516 --> 00:14:37.016
The what?

00:14:39.225 --> 00:14:40.725
Oh, my... Um...

00:14:41.975 --> 00:14:46.558
Uh, per our last conversation,
I made contact with the former asset.

00:14:46.641 --> 00:14:47.766
Whoa.

00:14:47.850 --> 00:14:49.350
- TMI.
- What...?

00:14:50.933 --> 00:14:52.016
Sorry. I'm sorry.

00:14:52.100 --> 00:14:54.641
The person in the place...

00:14:54.725 --> 00:14:58.350
and I am trying to get clarity
on how deep their...

00:14:58.433 --> 00:15:01.725
Their knowledge goes
into the Russian mob...

00:15:01.808 --> 00:15:03.933
- Oh, my God.
- What?

00:15:12.100 --> 00:15:15.516
- What's happening? What happened?
- They don't want your shit on their shoes.

00:15:15.600 --> 00:15:17.808
Violet, have you taught him anything?

00:15:17.891 --> 00:15:21.350
He is a slow learner, sir.

00:15:22.391 --> 00:15:23.600
Everything we work on

00:15:23.683 --> 00:15:26.058
has the potential to get us hauled
in front of the SSCI,

00:15:26.141 --> 00:15:28.850
so it's common * courtesy
not to overshare.

00:15:28.933 --> 00:15:32.433
No one wants to be in-the-know
unless they have to.

00:15:32.516 --> 00:15:34.183
- Is that clear?
- Yes, sir.

00:15:34.266 --> 00:15:37.433
So do you have a plan of action
for this woman or not?

00:15:38.225 --> 00:15:39.808
No, not yet.

00:15:39.891 --> 00:15:43.391
But I know you wouldn't want me to act
without doing a proper risk assessment.

00:15:43.475 --> 00:15:46.558
I have multiple feelers out. I should
have a much clearer picture shortly.

00:15:50.058 --> 00:15:51.558
Sweet.

00:16:08.266 --> 00:16:10.975
I can get you a zip.
It's gonna cost you 200.

00:16:11.558 --> 00:16:13.058
That's too much.

00:16:13.141 --> 00:16:14.641
I'll pay you back.

00:16:15.558 --> 00:16:17.058
Shit!

00:16:36.683 --> 00:16:38.183
Hey!

00:16:38.891 --> 00:16:40.391
Break it up!

00:16:49.391 --> 00:16:50.891
Janus.

00:16:51.016 --> 00:16:52.516
Go away.

00:16:52.558 --> 00:16:55.850
Well, I would love to,
but I need some advice.

00:16:55.933 --> 00:16:57.641
Forget it. You're dead to me.

00:17:02.391 --> 00:17:04.183
Ship sailed on those, new guy.

00:17:04.266 --> 00:17:07.266
I don't need to stay awake anymore.
The worst already happened.

00:17:08.183 --> 00:17:09.683
Did it?

00:17:10.225 --> 00:17:12.766
Seems like the way
that Nyland was so angry,

00:17:12.850 --> 00:17:16.183
the worst would be
if he found out you lied to him again.

00:17:17.975 --> 00:17:20.016
Are you threatening me?

00:17:20.100 --> 00:17:23.350
No, I'm just getting a feel
for how to navigate the place I guess.

00:17:26.558 --> 00:17:27.725
What do you want to know?

00:17:27.808 --> 00:17:31.225
Why can't I find an official record
of my graymailer in the archives?

00:17:31.308 --> 00:17:33.600
Even if she was a hip-pocket asset,

00:17:33.683 --> 00:17:37.308
her HUMINT was the basis of operations
over the span of years.

00:17:37.391 --> 00:17:39.183
Someone cleaned up their mess.

00:17:39.683 --> 00:17:41.933
Someone? Like her handler? Not Bob?

00:17:42.808 --> 00:17:45.308
I don't know. I am not going there.

00:17:45.391 --> 00:17:47.751
No matter what you threaten me with,
and neither should you.

00:17:47.808 --> 00:17:50.433
A guy like that finds out
you're poking around his old ops,

00:17:50.516 --> 00:17:53.558
and you end up in a dark room wondering
why there's plastic on the floor.

00:17:53.641 --> 00:17:55.141
I'm in a minefield.

00:17:55.350 --> 00:17:59.183
The only way I survive is
if I figure out what the hell she knows.

00:18:01.933 --> 00:18:03.600
You need her hall file.

00:18:04.683 --> 00:18:07.141
- What's a hall file?
- RUMINT.

00:18:07.225 --> 00:18:09.100
Rumors Intelligence.

00:18:09.183 --> 00:18:11.141
Okay, how do I find that?

00:18:12.225 --> 00:18:14.308
A hall file isn't a physical file.

00:18:14.391 --> 00:18:15.391
It's gossip.

00:18:15.891 --> 00:18:19.391
Things that were said in the halls of
whatever station she was handled out of.

00:18:19.475 --> 00:18:22.725
- She was an asset in Belarus.
- Doesn't mean that was her station.

00:18:22.808 --> 00:18:26.933
Which means you need to figure that out
in order to target a case officer

00:18:27.016 --> 00:18:29.266
who might be willing
to talk to you about her.

00:18:32.350 --> 00:18:33.850
What?

00:18:35.183 --> 00:18:36.975
No. He isn't in here, why?

00:18:42.475 --> 00:18:46.516
- Max Meladze was just shanked in prison.
- Who?

00:18:47.558 --> 00:18:49.308
- My squeaky wheel.
- And?

00:18:49.391 --> 00:18:50.891
Is she dead?

00:18:51.308 --> 00:18:52.891
No, but she's pissed.

00:18:52.975 --> 00:18:55.183
- Sir, I have to know...
- Know what?

00:18:56.058 --> 00:18:57.558
- Did we...?
- Did we what?

00:18:58.558 --> 00:19:00.058
Did we do it?

00:19:01.725 --> 00:19:04.808
Are you asking the General Counsel
of the CIA whether the Company,

00:19:04.891 --> 00:19:07.350
which is legally prohibited
from operating in the U.S.,

00:19:07.433 --> 00:19:12.475
attempted to murder a foreign national
and former asset in Ari-*-zona?

00:19:13.266 --> 00:19:14.266
Nope.

00:19:14.600 --> 00:19:16.100
I didn't think so.

00:19:16.391 --> 00:19:18.308
Listen to me carefully, Mr. Hendricks.

00:19:18.391 --> 00:19:20.308
I can't afford for this to be a problem.

00:19:20.391 --> 00:19:22.975
Senator Smoot is looking
to hang a scandal around my neck

00:19:23.058 --> 00:19:24.891
so I'll be forced to resign in disgrace.

00:19:24.975 --> 00:19:26.838
And the last thing I need is for your

00:19:26.839 --> 00:19:29.101
squeaky wheel to turn into that scandal.

00:19:29.183 --> 00:19:32.016
So you get this under control
no matter what it takes.

00:19:32.100 --> 00:19:33.600
Yes, sir.

00:19:34.141 --> 00:19:36.933
- I knew packing a bag was the right call.
- What?

00:19:38.058 --> 00:19:40.558
Nothing. I'm on it. Have no fear.

00:19:41.225 --> 00:19:42.975
Fear's literally all I have.

00:19:59.725 --> 00:20:00.725
Ouch.

00:20:01.141 --> 00:20:03.891
She's lucky.
Shank missed everything important.

00:20:04.391 --> 00:20:05.641
- You her lawyer?
- No.

00:20:05.725 --> 00:20:07.225
Yes.

00:20:07.600 --> 00:20:09.100
Interesting.

00:20:09.475 --> 00:20:12.016
I need to talk to her in private.

00:20:12.100 --> 00:20:13.600
That's not gonna happen.

00:20:28.308 --> 00:20:29.808
Come on.

00:20:43.766 --> 00:20:45.266
Five minutes.

00:20:46.225 --> 00:20:47.766
The shanking wasn't us.

00:20:48.641 --> 00:20:52.433
I know. It's Talco in retaliation
for burning his face with acid.

00:20:52.516 --> 00:20:54.016
That was pretty terrible.

00:20:54.850 --> 00:20:57.225
- But you guys are even now, right?
- No.

00:20:57.308 --> 00:21:01.225
He's gonna carry on trying to kill me.
Which is a problem for both of us.

00:21:07.016 --> 00:21:10.058
Why didn't you graymail the agency
when you first got to America?

00:21:10.141 --> 00:21:11.641
Why wait until now?

00:21:12.141 --> 00:21:13.475
Because I want to go home.

00:21:13.558 --> 00:21:15.600
You're exposed as a former asset,
you can't do that.

00:21:15.683 --> 00:21:17.891
You're keeping me in the dark

00:21:17.975 --> 00:21:21.766
because you think if you control
the information that gets out,

00:21:21.850 --> 00:21:23.450
you get to keep your duplicity a secret.

00:21:23.516 --> 00:21:25.433
You go back to your old life in Belarus.

00:21:25.516 --> 00:21:29.516
And if you expose everything,
then that door closes forever.

00:21:29.600 --> 00:21:31.280
You need me to help you
thread that needle.

00:21:31.350 --> 00:21:32.850
No. Promises were made.

00:21:33.600 --> 00:21:35.391
I expect to be taken care of.

00:21:36.225 --> 00:21:39.975
But make no mistake,
I will burn this place down if I have to.

00:21:40.058 --> 00:21:41.558
Starting with you.

00:21:44.516 --> 00:21:47.433
Look, I don't wanna spend
the rest of my life in prison.

00:21:48.141 --> 00:21:50.058
This is not my future.

00:21:50.141 --> 00:21:51.641
Well, then...

00:21:52.016 --> 00:21:53.976
you're gonna have to
negotiate a truce with Talco.

00:21:54.016 --> 00:21:55.558
I can't do that. Not from in here.

00:21:55.641 --> 00:21:59.183
- So you're gonna have to do that.
- No, it's not part of my job description.

00:21:59.266 --> 00:22:00.391
Sorry.

00:22:00.475 --> 00:22:02.266
We made a deal, so...

00:22:02.975 --> 00:22:04.600
you help me, I'll help you.

00:22:05.225 --> 00:22:06.725
What do you need help with?

00:22:07.350 --> 00:22:08.850
Nothing.

00:22:09.058 --> 00:22:11.516
Unless you know about Senate subpoenas.

00:22:12.683 --> 00:22:14.933
Well, I know about power and politics.

00:22:15.975 --> 00:22:17.475
All right.

00:22:18.225 --> 00:22:20.683
There's this hotshot senator,
he hates my boss.

00:22:20.766 --> 00:22:23.808
So he subpoenaed me so I have to
go testify just to * with him.

00:22:23.891 --> 00:22:26.433
Well, he doesn't want you to testify.

00:22:27.600 --> 00:22:28.725
What do you mean?

00:22:28.808 --> 00:22:32.433
The subpoena is leverage for you
to give him dirt on your boss.

00:22:32.516 --> 00:22:34.225
Just do that, subpoena goes away.

00:22:35.058 --> 00:22:37.475
Oh, that is so much worse.

00:22:37.975 --> 00:22:39.475
Yeah, well, you asked.

00:22:42.725 --> 00:22:44.225
So, um...

00:22:45.433 --> 00:22:49.850
I will get word to Talco
and you will prepare a peace agreement.

00:22:49.933 --> 00:22:52.100
- You know how to do that?
- Yeah.

00:22:52.933 --> 00:22:56.003
Talked my way out of being kidnapped
by pirates in Guyana.

00:22:56.004 --> 00:22:57.964
Spring break. Crazy.

00:23:33.475 --> 00:23:34.475
Violet Ebner.

00:23:34.558 --> 00:23:36.266
Hey, it's me, Owen.

00:23:36.350 --> 00:23:39.600
I could use a little bit of advice
if the offer still stands.

00:23:39.683 --> 00:23:41.100
Absolutely.

00:23:41.183 --> 00:23:43.583
I need to get my graymail case
moved into the federal system.

00:23:43.600 --> 00:23:45.560
- It's Owen.
- How do I do that?

00:23:45.641 --> 00:23:48.058
- What part of the country?
- Arizona.

00:23:48.975 --> 00:23:52.600
You know what, let me grab Lester.
He's had some interactions down there.

00:23:52.683 --> 00:23:54.183
Okay.

00:24:01.225 --> 00:24:02.985
Owen needs to make
his graymail case federal.

00:24:03.016 --> 00:24:05.475
This is our opportunity
to get someone in close to him.

00:24:05.558 --> 00:24:07.975
- Catherine.
- No. I was thinking Amelia.

00:24:08.058 --> 00:24:10.933
Oh, Amelia's gonna tear him apart.

00:24:11.516 --> 00:24:13.797
She'll want something from us in return
for spying on him.

00:24:13.808 --> 00:24:16.600
Are you kidding me?
She's gonna thank us for the hookup.

00:24:16.683 --> 00:24:18.766
Trust me, the kid's a stud.

00:24:19.891 --> 00:24:22.100
Okay. So I talked to Lester,

00:24:22.183 --> 00:24:25.558
and unfortunately, he doesn't have
any connections in the Southwest.

00:24:25.641 --> 00:24:28.766
But Amelia Salazar used to be an AUSA,

00:24:28.850 --> 00:24:31.766
and I'm sure she's got
a lot of pull down there.

00:24:32.558 --> 00:24:36.266
- Amazing. Can you connect us?
- Well, she's gone for the day.

00:24:36.350 --> 00:24:38.308
But I can introduce you tomorrow.

00:24:38.891 --> 00:24:40.100
Thanks.

00:24:40.183 --> 00:24:41.725
I owe you.

00:24:42.391 --> 00:24:45.225
Not at all. We're on the same team.

00:24:46.141 --> 00:24:47.933
That's what I'm talking about.

00:25:01.141 --> 00:25:02.641
Excuse me.

00:25:02.808 --> 00:25:04.016
- What?
- Sorry.

00:25:04.100 --> 00:25:07.516
I just checked in and couldn't help
but notice that you're eating takeout.

00:25:07.600 --> 00:25:09.100
I'm starving.

00:25:09.933 --> 00:25:14.100
- How are the chicken nuggets? Any good?
- Well, I'm not even sure they're chicken.

00:25:18.183 --> 00:25:19.683
Yeah.

00:25:26.766 --> 00:25:29.850
Okay. Now you have to sacrifice
one to the pool gods.

00:25:32.808 --> 00:25:35.808
What is that? A good luck thing
or a ward off evil spirit thing?

00:25:35.891 --> 00:25:38.558
It is a useless act of destruction thing.

00:25:39.350 --> 00:25:40.850
You mind if I sit?

00:25:41.558 --> 00:25:43.058
Go ahead.

00:25:49.016 --> 00:25:51.516
So, what brings you to this 5-star resort?

00:25:53.516 --> 00:25:56.933
I'm a lawyer in town for a case.
I fly out in the morning.

00:25:59.516 --> 00:26:00.808
What about you?

00:26:00.891 --> 00:26:02.391
Been here long?

00:26:04.058 --> 00:26:05.558
Couple days.

00:26:07.266 --> 00:26:08.766
For work or play?

00:26:09.891 --> 00:26:11.808
- Family.
- I can relate.

00:26:12.766 --> 00:26:14.475
I haven't seen mine since law school.

00:26:15.100 --> 00:26:17.433
My mom just got too unstable.

00:26:17.516 --> 00:26:20.308
I don't know.
I feel guilty about it sometimes.

00:26:22.225 --> 00:26:25.141
Truth is, I'm just making it worse
trying to make it better.

00:26:25.766 --> 00:26:26.886
Why are you telling me that?

00:26:26.933 --> 00:26:29.308
It's safer being honest
with strangers, I guess.

00:26:29.850 --> 00:26:31.891
I mean, I'm never gonna
see you again, right?

00:26:31.975 --> 00:26:33.766
So I don't give a shit if you judge me.

00:26:34.475 --> 00:26:35.975
You should try it.

00:26:40.600 --> 00:26:42.100
My...

00:26:42.641 --> 00:26:44.350
dad was killed recently.

00:26:47.183 --> 00:26:49.725
He was the only one who made me feel safe.

00:26:50.433 --> 00:26:51.933
Sane, loved.

00:26:54.141 --> 00:26:55.891
My father died when I was 12.

00:26:57.725 --> 00:27:00.225
Went to war and never came back.
It's what broke my mom.

00:27:03.433 --> 00:27:05.058
I tried so hard to, like...

00:27:06.391 --> 00:27:09.808
be the man in the house,
you know, be just like him, but...

00:27:22.183 --> 00:27:24.433
Thought that we were gonna
do this in the morning?

00:27:40.183 --> 00:27:43.100
It looks good on you.
You can keep it if you want.

00:27:44.058 --> 00:27:45.891
You think I need your permission?

00:27:47.183 --> 00:27:48.975
In this moment, probably not.

00:27:52.141 --> 00:27:54.058
- Where's my money?
- It's safe.

00:27:54.141 --> 00:27:55.766
Cut the tape. Let's go get it.

00:27:56.850 --> 00:27:58.475
What happened to your hand?

00:27:59.183 --> 00:28:03.516
Oh, I got my fingernail pulled out.
A similar situation to this, actually.

00:28:04.016 --> 00:28:07.558
- Coin toss on which place was cleaner.
- Pulling fingernails out is for pussies.

00:28:09.600 --> 00:28:13.933
Psychological studies show it's
only the threat of permanent damage...

00:28:14.433 --> 00:28:16.433
that motivates a pendejo...

00:28:17.058 --> 00:28:18.725
to betray his own interests.

00:28:21.808 --> 00:28:24.558
So where's my money?

00:28:24.641 --> 00:28:26.141
I told you.

00:28:28.558 --> 00:28:31.350
In the parking lot of Perryville Prison.
You won't find it without me.

00:28:31.433 --> 00:28:34.515
- That's not gonna happen if you drill a bunch of holes.
- How many is a bunch?

00:28:34.516 --> 00:28:35.516
Any!

00:28:36.016 --> 00:28:38.808
Any holes. I'm not playing with you.
I don't work for Max.

00:28:38.891 --> 00:28:41.475
I don't care about her money,
she doesn't care about me,

00:28:41.558 --> 00:28:44.808
so cut the * tape
and let's get out of each other's lives.

00:28:54.766 --> 00:28:56.850
So how long you known Max?

00:28:58.850 --> 00:29:03.058
It's in your best interest to give me
all the intel you know on her.

00:29:03.141 --> 00:29:05.641
- Yeah?
- Sort of an enemy of my enemy thing.

00:29:07.058 --> 00:29:08.891
- You think we're gonna be friends?
- No.

00:29:08.975 --> 00:29:10.808
I hope we never see each other again.

00:29:11.641 --> 00:29:14.933
But if I play things right,
I get her out of both of our lives.

00:29:20.725 --> 00:29:23.516
Max created a niche business
when she hit town.

00:29:24.766 --> 00:29:28.516
But she crossed the line with that money.
Took something that didn't belong to her.

00:29:29.266 --> 00:29:31.183
She'll betray you just the same.

00:29:32.683 --> 00:29:34.183
That's good to know.

00:29:58.600 --> 00:30:00.100
No, no, no, no.

00:30:00.850 --> 00:30:03.475
Point it away from me and open it.

00:30:10.975 --> 00:30:12.475
Hey. Whoa!

00:30:13.183 --> 00:30:14.683
Not cool, man.

00:30:15.850 --> 00:30:17.391
- You and Max square?
- Yeah.

00:30:21.433 --> 00:30:24.683
- Hey. What are you doing? You can't...
- Back up. Back up.

00:30:25.683 --> 00:30:27.183
It's a rental, man!

00:31:31.891 --> 00:31:34.350
Relax. I'm not here to hurt you.

00:31:35.100 --> 00:31:38.350
Soldiers can't be blamed
for the orders they are given.

00:31:40.058 --> 00:31:42.350
I was curious about you, though,

00:31:43.058 --> 00:31:44.850
so I did some investigating.

00:31:46.183 --> 00:31:47.683
Your daughter...

00:31:48.725 --> 00:31:50.225
she's beautiful.

00:31:51.808 --> 00:31:54.266
Oh, no. Don't worry, I...

00:31:55.016 --> 00:31:56.600
I would never hurt her.

00:31:57.850 --> 00:31:59.891
I had a daughter of my own once.

00:32:00.725 --> 00:32:02.266
Nothing compares to it.

00:32:03.391 --> 00:32:05.183
The joy when they're sweet.

00:32:06.058 --> 00:32:07.891
The madness when they're not.

00:32:09.683 --> 00:32:12.808
She was a handful, my Karolina.

00:32:13.766 --> 00:32:15.266
Willful.

00:32:15.433 --> 00:32:16.933
So stubborn.

00:32:17.683 --> 00:32:21.600
Everything a girl needs
to survive in this world.

00:32:22.850 --> 00:32:24.891
But I don't need to tell you that.

00:32:27.641 --> 00:32:31.516
I say all of this because I want you
to know that I would never

00:32:31.600 --> 00:32:33.808
harm a hair on your daughter's head.

00:32:35.683 --> 00:32:39.266
But I will kill
everyone else in your family

00:32:39.350 --> 00:32:41.266
unless you start working for me.

00:32:42.308 --> 00:32:43.808
A double agent.

00:32:44.850 --> 00:32:46.558
You feed Talco lies.

00:32:47.308 --> 00:32:49.016
Tell me what he's up to.

00:32:50.100 --> 00:32:52.683
Warn me if he tries to kill me again.

00:32:54.016 --> 00:32:55.516
Can you do that?

00:32:58.850 --> 00:33:00.350
Can you do that?

00:33:03.183 --> 00:33:04.683
Okay, good.

00:33:07.308 --> 00:33:11.683
You rest up, and I'll say a prayer
for your malyshka tonight.

00:33:43.508 --> 00:33:45.008
I called in sick.

00:33:45.550 --> 00:33:47.591
I couldn't take another
day of document discovery

00:33:47.592 --> 00:33:49.674
in a subzero conference room.

00:33:49.675 --> 00:33:52.800
I just got back from the airport.
I gotta shower, head to the office.

00:34:02.050 --> 00:34:03.841
I was gonna make pizza bagels.

00:34:04.341 --> 00:34:06.133
Oh! Yes, please.

00:34:10.508 --> 00:34:14.258
So how's the hunt for the truth going?

00:34:14.341 --> 00:34:15.841
Oh, it's great.

00:34:16.258 --> 00:34:17.258
Not great.

00:34:17.300 --> 00:34:20.966
Which isn't surprising in a place
that keeps secrets professionally.

00:34:23.050 --> 00:34:24.550
What?

00:34:25.841 --> 00:34:28.800
Look, I don't wanna be that girl
who says she's worried about you,

00:34:28.883 --> 00:34:31.258
because who wants to be that girl?

00:34:32.550 --> 00:34:34.091
But I'm worried about you.

00:34:34.966 --> 00:34:37.050
This need to jump into the deep end

00:34:37.133 --> 00:34:40.258
to prove yourself over and over again,
it's unhealthy.

00:34:40.883 --> 00:34:42.466
- I think it's ambitious.
- No.

00:34:43.008 --> 00:34:45.800
I'm ambitious. You're just afraid.

00:34:45.883 --> 00:34:47.175
It feels different.

00:34:47.258 --> 00:34:49.258
Afraid? Afraid of what?

00:34:49.341 --> 00:34:50.508
I don't know.

00:34:50.591 --> 00:34:52.716
Like, I honestly don't know.

00:34:53.425 --> 00:34:54.925
I mean,

00:34:56.633 --> 00:34:59.300
- why did you take a job at the CIA?
- Because...

00:34:59.383 --> 00:35:03.508
And don't say it was because
you wanted to get your hands dirty.

00:35:03.591 --> 00:35:05.508
You had no idea what that meant.

00:35:06.508 --> 00:35:10.425
Or here's an easier one.
Why did you even wanna be a lawyer?

00:35:11.175 --> 00:35:12.675
You know why.

00:35:13.008 --> 00:35:14.050
No.

00:35:14.133 --> 00:35:15.883
I know the story you tell yourself.

00:35:16.383 --> 00:35:19.091
But proving your crazy mother wrong
can't be the only reason

00:35:19.175 --> 00:35:21.258
why you make extreme life choices.

00:35:22.175 --> 00:35:25.008
- What if it is?
- That would be extremely dumb.

00:35:25.091 --> 00:35:26.800
What do you want me to do?

00:35:26.883 --> 00:35:29.050
Seriously, what do you
want me to do? Quit?

00:35:29.133 --> 00:35:30.925
When I haven't accomplished anything?

00:35:31.008 --> 00:35:33.425
God, Owen, you're allowed
to admit you've made a mistake.

00:35:33.508 --> 00:35:34.883
I have no problem doing that.

00:35:34.966 --> 00:35:37.300
I'm 24, I'm supposed to make mistakes.

00:35:37.383 --> 00:35:38.800
Take big swings.

00:35:38.883 --> 00:35:40.383
Right?

00:35:41.175 --> 00:35:42.675
Yeah.

00:35:44.716 --> 00:35:48.216
I just worry that the CIA
is gonna amplify your worst instincts.

00:35:49.550 --> 00:35:53.008
There are firms on K Street
that would snap you up in a second.

00:35:53.550 --> 00:35:55.425
They would pay you a fortune.

00:35:55.508 --> 00:35:58.091
Yeah. Clearly, you're so happy
doing corporate law.

00:35:58.175 --> 00:35:59.383
I'd love to do that too.

00:35:59.466 --> 00:36:01.270
Okay. At least I don't need to worry

00:36:01.271 --> 00:36:03.676
about misspelled Senate subpoenas.

00:36:07.925 --> 00:36:09.425
Misspelled.

00:36:10.550 --> 00:36:12.050
What?

00:36:12.341 --> 00:36:13.841
That's how I find her.

00:36:13.925 --> 00:36:15.425
I have to go.

00:36:15.550 --> 00:36:18.800
I love that you care about me
and you want me to be safe.

00:36:21.400 --> 00:36:23.691
- Yo!
- You again?

00:36:23.775 --> 00:36:25.483
- Yeah. Hi.
- Got a new name to run?

00:36:25.566 --> 00:36:27.358
No. Same name, bit of a twist.

00:36:27.441 --> 00:36:31.275
See, somebody went through a lot of effort
to purge Max's name from the system,

00:36:31.358 --> 00:36:34.150
but what are the odds
they spelled it correct in every report,

00:36:34.233 --> 00:36:36.066
every memo to file, every station cable?

00:36:36.150 --> 00:36:37.650
- Non-existent.
- Exactly.

00:36:37.733 --> 00:36:41.733
Chances are, they only erased the records
with her name spelled the right way.

00:36:41.816 --> 00:36:45.441
So I have comprised a list
of 100 misspellings for you to run.

00:36:45.525 --> 00:36:48.025
Add any in that you think
I might have missed.

00:36:48.525 --> 00:36:51.316
- This is actually really smart.
- Thank you.

00:36:56.066 --> 00:36:58.775
Amelia? Hi.

00:36:58.858 --> 00:37:01.691
- I don't think we've officially met.
- Owen.

00:37:01.775 --> 00:37:03.275
- Hi.
- Hi.

00:37:03.775 --> 00:37:04.816
Shut the door.

00:37:04.900 --> 00:37:07.108
Violet said you might be stopping by.

00:37:07.191 --> 00:37:09.150
Yes. I could use a little advice.

00:37:09.233 --> 00:37:12.691
But warning, I have to overshare a little.
Is that okay?

00:37:12.775 --> 00:37:15.775
Sure. Before you do,
we should lay out ground rules.

00:37:15.858 --> 00:37:17.358
- Okay.
- I need romance.

00:37:17.441 --> 00:37:19.691
Not a lot, I don't have time
for anything serious,

00:37:19.775 --> 00:37:22.316
but you'll have to put in
some effort if we start dating.

00:37:23.441 --> 00:37:25.650
Violet told you I was interested?

00:37:26.150 --> 00:37:28.858
Yeah. You don't think
I'd help you for nothing.

00:37:28.941 --> 00:37:30.483
No, no, no. Of course not.

00:37:30.566 --> 00:37:33.691
I'm just... I'm still learning
how things work here.

00:37:33.775 --> 00:37:35.608
Trust me, it's so much easier this way.

00:37:35.691 --> 00:37:37.483
I dated a guy who worked in Big Pharma,

00:37:37.566 --> 00:37:40.400
and the weekly contact reports
I had to write were a * nightmare.

00:37:42.400 --> 00:37:43.900
Wow...

00:37:44.608 --> 00:37:46.816
Well, I'm a big fan of romance.

00:37:46.900 --> 00:37:49.108
It's important to make sure
that there's a spark.

00:37:49.191 --> 00:37:51.150
Real intimacy requires
a mental connection.

00:37:51.233 --> 00:37:52.553
Okay. Don't get all touchy-feely.

00:37:52.608 --> 00:37:55.066
I'm just looking for dinner and a movie
once in a while.

00:37:55.150 --> 00:37:58.066
So we'll go out one night this week,
you pick a nice place.

00:37:58.150 --> 00:38:00.108
Not somewhere to be seen.
I don't do trendy.

00:38:00.191 --> 00:38:02.941
And the food's gotta be good.
I'm an eater.

00:38:03.733 --> 00:38:05.233
Got it.

00:38:06.233 --> 00:38:07.733
To business?

00:38:08.525 --> 00:38:09.525
What do you need?

00:38:10.025 --> 00:38:12.275
- Is this about your squeaky wheel?
- Yeah.

00:38:12.358 --> 00:38:15.733
She's a former asset
in prison for murder in Arizona.

00:38:15.816 --> 00:38:18.816
I need her case to go federal
so I can drop the charges if need be.

00:38:18.900 --> 00:38:21.608
Okay, I'll call A'Nyah Bell
at Main Justice.

00:38:21.691 --> 00:38:23.358
But I won't tell her that last part.

00:38:23.441 --> 00:38:26.858
Just that we need to get this case
elevated for national security reasons.

00:38:26.941 --> 00:38:29.775
We can actually have
the Justice Department take over a case?

00:38:29.858 --> 00:38:32.337
No, but I can totally make A'Nyah think

00:38:32.338 --> 00:38:34.817
that bigfooting it is a good career move.

00:38:34.900 --> 00:38:38.900
- What's your asset's name?
- It's Maxine Meladze.

00:38:38.983 --> 00:38:41.816
M-E-L-A-D-Z-E.

00:38:42.316 --> 00:38:44.358
She's at Perryville right now.

00:38:45.066 --> 00:38:47.108
- Got it.
- Thanks.

00:38:48.858 --> 00:38:50.150
You're a good kisser, right?

00:38:50.233 --> 00:38:53.400
You're not one of those who comes in
open-mouth and piledriver tongue?

00:38:53.483 --> 00:38:55.316
God, no. No, I hate that.

00:38:55.400 --> 00:38:59.025
I dated a girl in high school,
felt like she was trying to eat my face.

00:38:59.108 --> 00:39:00.608
I'm more subtle.

00:39:03.358 --> 00:39:04.858
Looking forward to it.

00:39:06.858 --> 00:39:08.358
Yeah.

00:39:11.483 --> 00:39:13.608
Hey. How'd it go with Amelia?

00:39:14.191 --> 00:39:17.733
Magical. Already planning the wedding.
You wanna be the best man?

00:39:17.816 --> 00:39:20.733
- Is she gonna help you with your thing?
- Yes.

00:39:20.816 --> 00:39:24.525
Good. Good.
I'm glad we could provide the hookup.

00:39:27.316 --> 00:39:28.858
Thank you for the connect.

00:39:31.566 --> 00:39:34.066
- This better not be another empty file.
- Not completely.

00:39:34.150 --> 00:39:37.316
- But I got fewer results than I thought.
- This is it?

00:39:37.400 --> 00:39:40.900
Someone went to the trouble
of classifying misspellings too.

00:39:40.983 --> 00:39:43.400
They just missed one. Cyrillic's a *.

00:39:43.941 --> 00:39:46.441
Yeah, man, this is heavily redacted.

00:39:46.525 --> 00:39:48.691
- How do I get the original?
- Above my pay grade.

00:39:48.775 --> 00:39:51.858
There is a case officer mentioned
that isn't redacted, at the bottom.

00:39:52.358 --> 00:39:53.858
Thank you.

00:40:01.108 --> 00:40:03.608
Sir, I need to go to Vienna.

00:40:03.691 --> 00:40:06.150
No, you don't. Use the telephone.

00:40:11.275 --> 00:40:14.608
Sir, this is a conversation
you don't wanna risk getting intercepted.

00:40:26.150 --> 00:40:28.858
I can give you more specifics,
but then you'd be in the loop

00:40:28.941 --> 00:40:31.741
on some things that you might
want deniability on later.

00:40:32.025 --> 00:40:35.983
Are you playing me? Do you have an agenda
I need to worry about?

00:40:36.066 --> 00:40:40.275
No. Sir, I'm just trying to do the job
that you hired me for.

00:40:42.608 --> 00:40:44.941
Okay. Tell me a little more.

00:40:45.775 --> 00:40:48.983
There's a case officer in Vienna
who might be the key to understanding

00:40:49.066 --> 00:40:51.400
just how dangerous my squeaky wheel is.

00:40:55.025 --> 00:40:56.400
Okay. Go.

00:40:56.483 --> 00:40:57.983
But be careful.

00:40:58.233 --> 00:41:00.483
Vienna is the espionage Olympics,

00:41:00.566 --> 00:41:04.483
where every foreign intelligence agency
sends their all-stars.

00:41:04.566 --> 00:41:06.150
So don't get cute.

00:41:06.233 --> 00:41:09.608
- Do your business and get out. Understand?
- Yes, sir.

00:41:23.025 --> 00:41:25.191
- It's like a plane crash. Yeah.
- His island?

00:41:25.941 --> 00:41:29.900
- What the hell are you doing?
- I am looking for my black passport.

00:41:29.983 --> 00:41:33.275
According to Operations, it was
delivered in my office five days ago.

00:41:33.358 --> 00:41:36.066
That was before I left to Yemen.

00:41:37.275 --> 00:41:39.316
- Well, I don't have it. No.
- No?

00:41:52.358 --> 00:41:53.858
What's this?

00:41:55.566 --> 00:41:57.733
Must've gotten mixed up in my mail.

00:41:57.816 --> 00:42:00.150
Yeah, I'm sure Nyland's gonna buy that.

00:42:02.358 --> 00:42:04.441
All right. What do you want?

00:42:05.025 --> 00:42:07.900
Well, Nyland is sending me to Vienna,

00:42:07.983 --> 00:42:10.650
and I need to set up
a nominal cover identity.

00:42:12.233 --> 00:42:13.733
You're gonna tell me how.

00:42:22.733 --> 00:42:25.733
A nominal cover identity
will not hold up to any scrutiny.

00:42:25.816 --> 00:42:28.858
So don't put yourself in a situation
where you have to rely on it.

00:42:28.941 --> 00:42:30.733
You'll be going to Vienna as a diplomat.

00:42:30.816 --> 00:42:34.816
Specifically, a temporary legal attaché
for the State Department.

00:42:34.900 --> 00:42:36.275
The station will check you in,

00:42:36.358 --> 00:42:38.608
so you don't need
to interact with the front desk.

00:42:38.691 --> 00:42:41.441
Just walk into the lobby,
and someone will hand you your key.

00:42:44.691 --> 00:42:45.691
Hi.

00:42:46.150 --> 00:42:47.650
Lance Miller?

00:42:48.983 --> 00:42:52.358
Um... No. Lance Millerman.

00:42:55.400 --> 00:42:56.900
Thank you.

00:43:50.483 --> 00:43:52.150
Are you waiting for someone?

00:43:53.358 --> 00:43:55.150
- Yeah.
- What's your name?

00:43:56.400 --> 00:43:58.275
It's Lance Millerman.

00:43:59.108 --> 00:44:00.858
There's a phone call for you.

00:44:02.233 --> 00:44:03.733
Danke.

00:44:05.025 --> 00:44:05.858
Hello?

00:44:05.941 --> 00:44:09.191
Congratulations. You're being followed
by the entire United Nations.

00:44:09.900 --> 00:44:12.483
I've been watching you
the whole way over from the hotel.

00:44:12.566 --> 00:44:14.525
Did anyone teach you countersurveillance?

00:44:14.608 --> 00:44:17.400
Why would they? I'm a legal attaché
from the State Department.

00:44:17.483 --> 00:44:20.108
No, you're a toddler
playing dress up in a shark tank.

00:44:20.191 --> 00:44:22.525
Go to the embassy. I'll meet you there.

00:44:22.608 --> 00:44:24.608
I'm not blowing my cover
for this shit show.

00:44:32.483 --> 00:44:34.858
Sorry about that.
It's my first time in Vienna.

00:44:35.358 --> 00:44:37.900
Wait until we get into a SCIF.

00:44:44.150 --> 00:44:45.650
Thank you.

00:44:52.150 --> 00:44:53.691
What the hell are you doing here?

00:44:54.400 --> 00:44:56.608
Relax, I'm just here for some information.

00:44:56.691 --> 00:44:58.191
So it's not a thing.

00:44:59.066 --> 00:45:01.608
You got the General Counsel
to ask for country clearance,

00:45:01.691 --> 00:45:03.566
the U.S. ambassador to sign off on it,

00:45:03.650 --> 00:45:06.733
and flew all the way to Vienna
to tell me this isn't a thing?

00:45:06.816 --> 00:45:09.650
You're right. It is a thing.
And you're a bit *ed.

00:45:09.733 --> 00:45:12.275
But the question is how *ed, you know?

00:45:12.775 --> 00:45:14.525
So just sit your * down.

00:45:18.025 --> 00:45:19.525
Okay. No problem.

00:45:25.233 --> 00:45:26.733
What do you need to know?

00:45:26.816 --> 00:45:29.983
Well, you were stationed
in Belarus in 2014.

00:45:30.733 --> 00:45:32.275
I was only there on TDY.

00:45:32.983 --> 00:45:34.483
What is that?

00:45:34.608 --> 00:45:38.191
Temporary duty.
A few months between formal assignments.

00:45:39.358 --> 00:45:40.983
What was the station like?

00:45:42.858 --> 00:45:46.691
Honestly, it was a shit show.
No supervision, infighting out the *.

00:45:46.775 --> 00:45:48.858
I couldn't wait to get out of there.

00:45:51.608 --> 00:45:53.525
Ever heard the name Max Meladze?

00:45:56.441 --> 00:45:57.691
Once or twice.

00:45:57.775 --> 00:46:00.483
Well, I'm trying to
find the hall file on her.

00:46:00.566 --> 00:46:02.066
Why?

00:46:02.608 --> 00:46:04.108
Not at liberty to say.

00:46:05.483 --> 00:46:06.983
Look.

00:46:07.191 --> 00:46:10.441
Russia, Belarus, they're mafia states.

00:46:11.483 --> 00:46:14.650
The mob provides the muscle
for whatever the political elites ask for,

00:46:14.733 --> 00:46:18.566
and keeping those elites happy
was Max's specialty.

00:46:18.650 --> 00:46:21.566
Which is why she was such
a valuable asset for us.

00:46:22.816 --> 00:46:24.316
Who was her handler?

00:46:25.400 --> 00:46:27.775
She was between handlers when I arrived.

00:46:29.233 --> 00:46:32.525
Is that normal?
For an asset to be without a handler?

00:46:33.108 --> 00:46:35.941
No. But her first dropped dead
of a heart attack.

00:46:36.816 --> 00:46:39.733
I complained to Langley,
they asked me to fix it,

00:46:39.816 --> 00:46:42.191
but there was no way
I was getting stuck in that mud.

00:46:43.941 --> 00:46:46.150
And then Belarus became a denied area

00:46:46.151 --> 00:46:48.360
right when I was moving on.

00:46:50.150 --> 00:46:53.650
Sorry, what does that mean,
"a denied area"?

00:46:55.566 --> 00:47:00.316
An extremely hostile, operational
environment with heavy surveillance.

00:47:00.400 --> 00:47:04.483
It's basically too hot to run operations,
so you bug out until things calm down.

00:47:05.191 --> 00:47:08.316
- And what happens to your assets?
- It depends.

00:47:10.566 --> 00:47:12.525
What happened with Max Meladze?

00:47:13.941 --> 00:47:16.608
No idea. I was long gone by then.

00:47:18.900 --> 00:47:21.358
Look, man, you can tell me the truth,

00:47:22.066 --> 00:47:24.566
or I can have your * called back to D.C.

00:47:24.650 --> 00:47:26.650
so you have to answer
to the General Counsel.

00:47:30.025 --> 00:47:33.775
I heard she was empowered
to run her own network.

00:47:34.358 --> 00:47:35.900
Of agency assets?

00:47:36.525 --> 00:47:38.775
That's insane.

00:47:38.858 --> 00:47:42.275
She didn't even have a hard file.
There's no POA, no 201.

00:47:42.358 --> 00:47:45.400
- There's nothing.
- I don't know anything about that.

00:47:45.483 --> 00:47:47.733
So an unvetted asset was just allowed

00:47:47.734 --> 00:47:50.284
to handle other assets?

00:47:54.941 --> 00:47:57.441
That means she knows
the identities of most, if not all,

00:47:57.525 --> 00:48:00.150
of our spies in Belarus and Russia.

00:48:01.566 --> 00:48:03.400
Told you you didn't wanna know.

00:48:04.733 --> 00:48:06.358
Jesus Christ.

00:48:08.608 --> 00:48:10.108
Are we done?

00:48:12.358 --> 00:48:13.858
No.

00:48:16.233 --> 00:48:17.733
Sit down.

00:48:23.816 --> 00:48:25.525
Why did Max leave Belarus?

00:48:28.941 --> 00:48:32.608
She pissed off the wrong person
in the mob. He was trying to kill her.

00:48:33.275 --> 00:48:34.775
Well, who got her out?

00:48:36.316 --> 00:48:39.191
No idea. I was long gone by then.

00:48:41.566 --> 00:48:43.066
Is that SOP?

00:48:43.733 --> 00:48:45.566
To just abandon assets?

00:48:47.941 --> 00:48:51.025
A hundred percent.
Once she was dead to the Russians,

00:48:51.108 --> 00:48:54.275
she stopped being an asset,
so she was dead to us.

00:48:56.441 --> 00:48:58.358
She's making threats, isn't she?

00:49:01.608 --> 00:49:03.275
Does that idea make you nervous?

00:49:04.108 --> 00:49:08.441
No. I told you,
I only met her once.

00:49:10.316 --> 00:49:13.191
No, no. You said that
you'd heard her name.

00:49:13.691 --> 00:49:15.608
Once or twice.

00:49:16.775 --> 00:49:19.316
So now you're telling me that you met her.

00:49:20.066 --> 00:49:22.358
Well, I mean, in passing.

00:49:25.650 --> 00:49:28.066
All right. This is what I need from you.

00:49:28.775 --> 00:49:30.941
I need you to go into your files

00:49:31.025 --> 00:49:34.400
and give me everything
that you have on Max Meladze.

00:49:34.900 --> 00:49:37.400
Sure, no problem. I'll get right on it.

00:49:48.650 --> 00:49:50.150
Okay.

00:50:03.566 --> 00:50:05.775
- Where are you?
- I am in Vienna.

00:50:05.858 --> 00:50:08.191
And I know what
you're threatening to expose too.

00:50:08.275 --> 00:50:10.316
That means you talked to somebody.
Tell me the name.

00:50:11.316 --> 00:50:15.233
Nope. That's the one thing you don't have.
Real names. That's my leverage.

00:50:15.316 --> 00:50:18.316
Congratulations.
You're officially part of the game.

00:50:18.900 --> 00:50:21.275
And I am one step closer to going home.

00:50:21.358 --> 00:50:22.441
Oh, yeah? Me too.

00:50:22.525 --> 00:50:24.025
Hey, airport.

00:50:29.275 --> 00:50:31.816
If you won't tell me the name,
at least tell me how it went.

00:50:33.733 --> 00:50:35.233
We got a lot of pushback.

00:50:35.316 --> 00:50:38.691
This person definitely
has some secrets to hide.

00:50:38.775 --> 00:50:41.191
Okay, you're gonna have to tell me
who you met with.

00:50:41.816 --> 00:50:42.733
Why?

00:50:42.816 --> 00:50:46.566
Because the secrets I know
are worth killing to keep quiet.

00:50:54.316 --> 00:50:55.400
That's weird.

00:50:55.483 --> 00:50:56.316
What?

00:50:56.400 --> 00:50:58.691
Hey, is Gunther your dad?

00:50:59.191 --> 00:51:00.691
What are you talking about?

00:51:01.108 --> 00:51:02.608
This isn't her cab.

00:51:04.066 --> 00:51:06.275
Owen, she's an assassin.

00:51:06.358 --> 00:51:08.066
You have to kill the driver.

00:51:10.983 --> 00:51:12.941
I can't... I can't do that.

00:51:13.025 --> 00:51:15.191
- Kill her, or she kills you.
- No.

00:51:15.275 --> 00:51:17.150
- Are you in the back seat?
- Yes.

00:51:17.233 --> 00:51:20.316
Okay. Take the seatbelt
and strangle her from behind,

00:51:20.400 --> 00:51:24.358
or you can find a pen, stick it in her ear
and scramble her brain.

00:51:24.441 --> 00:51:26.358
- I can't. I can't do that.
- Owen!

00:51:26.858 --> 00:51:29.358
Hi, excuse me.
Would you mind pulling over?

00:51:29.441 --> 00:51:31.983
- I need to get out.
- Stop talking. Kill her!

00:51:32.066 --> 00:51:33.566
I can't kill her!

00:51:33.900 --> 00:51:35.525
Shit.

00:52:03.275 --> 00:52:05.525
Oh, *!

00:52:05.608 --> 00:52:07.108
Shit.

00:52:08.025 --> 00:52:09.608
Okay, I'm out of the car.

00:52:09.691 --> 00:52:11.900
- You ever been to Vienna?
- Many times.

00:52:11.983 --> 00:52:13.900
Great. I need some * help
getting away.

00:52:13.983 --> 00:52:15.400
Tell me, where are you?

00:52:15.483 --> 00:52:19.358
There's buildings,
and I think I'm by the opera house.

00:52:19.441 --> 00:52:20.941
- Oh, shit.
- Okay.

00:52:27.108 --> 00:52:29.650
- She's after me again.
- She wouldn't be if you'd killed her.

00:52:29.733 --> 00:52:32.173
You need to steal a car.
She'll catch you if you stay on foot.

00:52:32.233 --> 00:52:34.150
- What?
- Do it! Owen, now!

00:52:39.275 --> 00:52:41.358
Shit. Oh, my God.

00:52:44.025 --> 00:52:45.525
Hey!

00:52:51.108 --> 00:52:53.191
Sorry!

00:52:53.275 --> 00:52:55.775
Don't apologize. Why are you apologizing?

00:52:59.691 --> 00:53:01.983
Because carjacking
is a new experience for me.

00:53:08.108 --> 00:53:10.316
Owen, fill me in.
What the * is going on?

00:53:21.108 --> 00:53:23.483
I'm sorry.

00:53:24.108 --> 00:53:26.483
Owen? What's happening? Who's yelling?

00:53:28.066 --> 00:53:29.941
I don't want to talk about it.

00:53:30.025 --> 00:53:31.525
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

00:53:31.900 --> 00:53:32.733
I'm sorry.

00:53:32.816 --> 00:53:35.566
I'm sorry. I know.

00:53:43.650 --> 00:53:45.650
Shit.

00:53:46.775 --> 00:53:48.608
Oh, shit. Okay.

00:53:48.691 --> 00:53:51.608
Uh, I'm on a bridge.
I don't know which one.

00:53:51.691 --> 00:53:53.571
- There's buildings.
- Okay, that's not helpful.

00:53:53.608 --> 00:53:56.025
Oh, shit. There's another assassin.

00:53:57.483 --> 00:53:59.191
They're both in taxis.

00:53:59.941 --> 00:54:02.566
Okay, I'm stuck on a bridge. What do I do?

00:54:03.608 --> 00:54:05.816
- Can you swim?
- It's 20 degrees outside.

00:54:05.900 --> 00:54:08.525
That's T-shirt weather in Belarus.
Get in the river. Do it!

00:54:08.608 --> 00:54:10.608
It's your only option.
Get in the * river!

00:54:10.691 --> 00:54:12.608
What do you need, a "three, two, one"?
