Covert Affairs (2010–2014): Season 5, Episode 14 - Transport Is Arranged - full transcript

You think Tony was murdered?

He wouldn't drink
himself to death.

- Who would want that?
- Belenko.

There's a pattern
to his attacks.

Each one killed a guy
from my unit.

First, Charlie Schinderman
in Chicago,

then Mueller, which was based
on false Intel fed to us,

and he had Tony poisoned.

Auggie, you could be next.

I know you're not Interpol.

We are on the same side.



Start talking now.

Where's Auggie Anderson?

I'm not afraid to suffer,
and I'm not afraid to die.

I wonder if your friend
can say the same.

Are you saying
he's still alive?

For now.

There was a tracking device
in his mouth.

Aah!

It turns out
our Georgian diplomat

isn't from Georgia after all.

He's from Grozny, Chechnya.

We believe that's
where he was taking Auggie.

Auggie's unit was deployed
to Grozny on several occasions.

I've been waiting for you.



Why'd you bring me out here?

Because you have something
I want.

No! No!

Hello, Mr. Anderson.

Let's get started, shall we?

I had Belenko, and I lost him,

and now he's got Auggie.

We have to find him,
and nothing is gonna stop us.

Joan, I just got word
from Annie

they're an hour south
of the Kazbegi border crossing.

Great.
Let me know when they through.

Yeah, and I've also gone
over all the mission files

from Auggie's time with
Special Activities Division--

seven Ops in Grozny.

Any one of them
could be connected to Belenko.

Anything stand out?

Well, I've cross-referenced
all the names

I could dig up tied to the Ops,
and everything's coming up zero.

I mean,
even the FSB's file on Belenko

doesn't have his real name.

So I'm gonna run through
our database

for known aliases again

and make sure
I didn't miss anything.

Yeah.

When was the last time
you got some sleep?

I-I can't sleep.

There's--there's too much to do,

and I'm not gonna
leave it to anyone else.

I mean, it's Auggie.

No, no, no, no.

I can't.

Yeah.

Dasvidaniya.
Anything yet?

I burned through my Rolodex

calling
old eastern bloc contacts,

and either Belenko has a lot
of friends or a lot of money.

No one is talking.
I don't get it.

The guy's Chechen
posing as a Georgian diplomat.

Why are the Russians
willing to hide him?

He must have something
on someone inside the Kremlin

or the FSB or both.

Well, you can't leverage
people forever.

Eventually they'll turn on you.

And that's
when we'll get him.

You feel like taking a break
from your calls?

You'd be very valuable
in my next meeting.

You don't even have to ask.

Joan, Arthur, please meet
commander Richard Wheeler.

He's in charge of SEAL team 8.
Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you both.

Commander Wheeler is here
to liaise with our operation.

As soon as we have confirmation
of Auggie's location,

his team is going
to handle the extraction.

We're very grateful for
your help, commander Wheeler.

Auggie Anderson's a dear friend
to everyone here.

Well, we'll do
whatever we can to get him back.

Let's have Patrick
get you down to the DPD,

get your team situated.
Okay. Thanks.

Thank you.

- Thoughts on our Navy man?
- Wheeler's good.

He's kept himself out of
operations, though, for a while.

- Any reason?
- Not officially.

But he was on the U.S.S. Cole
when it was attacked in Yemen.

We lost a lot
of good men that day.

One of them was his son.

Ugh!

Shall I continue, or are you
feeling a little more talkative?

Oh, why talk now?

I'm just starting
to enjoy this.

I'm glad you still have
a sense of humor.

You said I have something
you want.

Are you gonna tell me
what that is?

Someone's starting
to lose their patience.

That means you're going
to break soon.

Oh, you're awfully confident.

You're not the first person
I've interrogated,

but since you asked,
I'm looking for some information

about a man.

Well, you're gonna
have to be more specific.

A man you worked
with in Grozny in 2005.

2005?

Mm-hmm.

That was
a long time ago, man.

My memory's a little fuzzy.

His name's James Deckard.

It's good to see you, Auggie.

You too, James.
It's been too long.

Were you followed?

Come on, man,
you know me better than that.

Yeah, well, I had to ask.

These guys got me looking over
my shoulder most of the time.

You missed our last couple
meets--did something happen?

Mm. Things have been
touch and go lately.

Everyone in the Chechen
resistance has been on edge

since we captured Mueller.
"We"?

Yeah, live the cover, man.

You doing okay with that?

I mean, you know how it is.

It's like, at first you're like,
"I can handle anything."

You're just playing a role...

But you're not really playing,
you know, you're living.

Yeah, I get it.

Any word on Mueller?

No. I haven't been
able to get close,

but I know these guys.

You don't want to get captured
by them.

I heard that you are trying

to set up a prisoner exchange.

We're offering to give up
Mikhail Kokorin for Mueller.

What are the chances
that you can get

yourself on the team
that's bringing Mueller in?

Already on it,
but we got some bad news there.

Imran Umarov is gonna be
on the team as well.

- Shit.
- Yeah, I know.

So keep your eyes open.

Yeah, you too.

And make sure
no one shoots me.

We all keep our cool,
everything's gonna be fine.

All right, man.

I don't know
any James Deckard.

Don't worry.

I'm going to help you
to remember.

@elder_man

Oh, we don't
actually speak Russian.

Do you speak English?
You are British?

We're aid workers

going to Grozny to give supplies
to St. Michael's orphanage.

Passports, please.

I have a friend, Omar.

He was supposed to meet us here.

- You are friends of Omar?
- Yes.

Wait over there.

Omar is not here today.

What do you have in the back?

Food and medical supplies.

Did Omar say
when he'd be back?

We have not heard
from him today.

Step out
of the vehicle, please.

We should probably declare
what's in the back.

There's a...
small valise there.

There's a dozen phones.
They're all unlocked.

Perhaps they should stay
with you?

Welcome to Russia.

I'm glad
you brought those GS5s--

better than cash
in places like this.

Omar didn't show.

Don't worry. I'm gonna have
a little chat with him,

first thing, once we locate him.

You still think
we can trust him?

We don't know
what happened to him.

He has connections with the
Russians and the Chechen mob.

I mean, no one comes
in and out of Grozny

without him knowing about it.

If we want to find Auggie,
he's where we start.

Provided we're not
compromised.

Just the man
I was hoping to see.

Glad you could make it
out to Langley.

How'd the debriefing go?

Relatively painless.

Well, I know it can be
a little invasive,

but if it helps, we all have
to go through it at some point.

You know, I would love to talk,
but I'm sorry.

I've got a little situation
I'm dealing with right now.

Of course,
but before you go,

I just wanted to say thank you.
For what?

For seeing me as someone
who could do more than her job,

her old job.

I know we're not working
together anymore,

but it would be nice
to still see you.

- Meaning?
- I'm asking you out...

on a date.

I could make dinner tonight
if you're able

to resolve your situation.

Yeah, I'd love that.

Okay. Okay, so, um,
I'll check in later.

Bye, Calder.

Are you ready to talk yet?

I'm a little busy.

What do you want to talk about?

About your friend
James Deckard.

I told you.
I don't know who that is.

Right.

Yes, you said that.

So...

August 14, 2005,

you don't remember
what happened to him then?

Doesn't ring a bell.

You know...

Believe it or not,
it grows tiring hurting you.

It would be so much simpler
if you just told me the truth.

I told you the truth, man.

Well, let's try something
different, shall we?

Ugh.

I'll be back to check on you
in a few hours.

I got an update on Mueller.

We've organized
a prisoner exchange.

I was hoping you were gonna
say, "kill some Chechens."

Sons of bitches
take one of our guys--

Calm down. That's not gonna
get Nathan back.

Coddling the bastards
ain't gonna get him back either.

Only one thing's gonna get
him back...

Mikhail Kokorin.

We hand him
over to the Chechens.

They give us Mueller.

Nobody gets hurt.
What are these?

Protocols, man.

He's never done
a prisoner exchange.

- Not technically.
- Leave Dale alone.

This is how both sides
have agreed to do the exchange.

Now, you guys need to know this
backwards and forwards because

it's only gonna be
the four of us walking Kokorin

into the lion's den.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

What about Deckard?
He gonna help us with this?

Yeah, he's gonna be
on the Chechen exchange team.

Good.
So maybe he'll make sure

we don't get
our heads blown off.

Yeah.
Deckard gave me a heads-up.

Our favorite psychopath,
Imran Umarov, is gonna be there.

So maybe we'll get our heads
blown off after all.

Omar used to have a safe house
in this apartment building.

Yeah, well, even if he's here,
what makes you think

he's gonna let us up?

I've thrown this guy
a lot of money over the years.

The guy I know
wouldn't risk losing that.

I think he already has.

It's McQuaid.

Are you gonna let me in?

Quickly.

Quickly.

What happened
at the border, Omar?

You were supposed to meet us.

I am sorry.
I was detained.

How did you get through?

Without your help.

Things have gotten bad
since we talked last.

Is that why you're
camped out here?

I've made some inquiries
to help you

and quickly found out
Belenko has a lot of friends

in the Russian government.

Well, I thought you did too.

Not as many
as him apparently.

They've ordered
that he not be touched.

There's a lot of money
working in his favor.

People are not going
to want to help you here.

Okay, what
about our friend Auggie?

Have you heard anything
about him?

It's too late
for your friend.

If Belenko has him,
he doesn't have long to live.

Do you know where
our friend is?

It doesn't matter
where your friend is.

Belenko knows you're coming.
He owns the Chechens.

The Russians
are looking the other way.

You need to think about getting
out of the country.

I'm losing my patience.

I hear you, but something
must've spooked Omar...

And it must've been pretty big
'cause nothing scares him.

Everyone's scared
of something.

Aah!

I don't have time to waste.
Tell me where my friend is.

Please, I'm losing blood.

You either tell me where
my friend is, or you bleed out.

It's your choice.

Ryan, my friend,
I don't know anything.

Please.

I think
you better tell her, Omar.

I don't know
what the hell she's gonna do.

You don't understand.

If I say anything,
I'm giving my life away.

Belenko--he'll kill me.

Aah!

You're too worried
about Belenko

and not worried enough
about me.

There's an old apartment
building

on the west end of town,
destroyed during the war.

I can give you the address.

Belenko is keeping him there.

Write it down.

Please, that's all I know.

We were able to identify
the location Annie provided.

It's the ruins
of an apartment building

on the western edge of Grozny.

Now, given the flight time
from Incirlik,

how soon can you
have your platoon on the ground?

Until we have a visual
confirmation of our target,

we're not about to enter
into Russian airspace.

Commander, this might well be
the best intelligence

we're gonna get.
It's unverified.

You have people on the ground.
Get a visual.

We don't know
what kind of fortifications

Belenko might have inside.

My people are not equipped
for a commando raid.

We've only got one shot
at this.

The minute our Black Hawks
enter the country,

they're gonna send off alarms.

They'll barely have time
to storm the place

before the Russians arrive,

and you can bet they're gonna be
watching the border after.

So it's best
that we're 100% certain

we're raiding the right place.

Wouldn't you agree?

Omar knew where Auggie
was being held.

I didn't have time to be nice.

Look, I followed your cue,

but maybe just tell me
what you're gonna do next time.

Okay.

Once again,
tell me what happened

to James Deckard.

You must already know,

otherwise you wouldn't keep
asking me.

You look tired, Mr. Anderson.

How long do you think
you can keep this up?

A long time.

How about you?

Oh, until you tell me
what I need to know.

Should we put you back
in the box?

You want to know
what happened to Deckard?

He's dead.

Tell me how he died.

I was assigned a...

prisoner exchange in Grozny.

Deckard was there undercover.

We brought our prisoner
to an agreed-upon location

according to strict protocols.

We have the prisoner.

Why do you have five men?

We also agreed to do
the exchange in English, Imran.

You calling me liar?

Imran...

Hey, look...
Hey, what's done is done.

We're here.

We have Mikhail.

You have our man Mueller.

Let's make the exchange.

Why should we trust you now?

You CIA are all liars.

You shouldn't even be here
in this country.

This isn't
about what happened before.

This is about right now.

This is about making a deal
for Mikhail.

Tell that one back there
to lower his weapon.

Tony, lower your weapon.

Not while he's got his barrel
pointed at my ten ring.

Tony, lower your weapon.

Please.

Ah!

I lost control
of the situation,

and the Chechens opened fire.

My team was trained
to fight back, so they did.

We lost our prisoner...

My teammate Dale.

All the Chechens were killed,
including Deckard.

That is bullshit.

You are lying to me,
and that is a problem.

- I'm telling you what happened.
- That is not what happened.

I know for a fact you're not
telling me everything.

Whoever told you
that is lying, then.

You received
sere training, yes?

Obviously
you can withstand torture,

but I wonder if you can listen
to someone else get tortured,

someone you care about.

Auggie!

Tash?

Tash?

Tash, I'm so sorry.

How did they find you?

I don't know.
I was in Budapest.

They grabbed me off the street.

Auggie, who is that man?

It's Aleksandre Belenko.
He's a terrorist.

- What did you do to him?
- I don't know.

Then what's this all about?

That's what I'm trying
to figure out.

What does he want
you to tell him?

This can't be for nothing.
Tash, we can't speak freely.

They're listening in.
Of course.

Well...

Whatever you're not saying,

I hope it's something
you're willing to die for.

Ah!

Dale.

That was a freakin' shitshow.

I don't see how Deckard

goes back for the Chechens
after this.

Tony, Charlie,
check on Mueller.

Deckard, let's talk.

Sir, sir, there's a call
for you, line two.

It's Sydney.

Will you tell her, uh,

that I'm sorry I'm not gonna be
able to make it tonight?

- Of course.
- Thanks, Patrick.

All right, where are we?

Okay.

All right.

I see.

Of course.

Thank you.

Yes?

I recognize one of those guys.
He works for Belenko.

Looks like we've come
to the right place.

Okay, I'll call this in,

but if they balk,
I'm not gonna wait.

I know.
I know you, Walker.

- Ready?
- Yeah.

Do you hear that sound?

Yes?

That is electricity,

and I am going to arc
it through her body.

The amperage is low enough
that she'll remain alive

for quite some time,
but still very much in pain.

What is this about, Belenko?

Is this about one
of the Chechens who died?

What do you care
about Chechens dying?

One of them was
special to you.

I can hear it in your voice.

Come on, don't you want me
to know before you kill me...

To truly appreciate the lengths
you've gone to get me here?

Mikhail Kokorin!

Your prisoner...

He was my brother.

So you're doing all this
just for revenge?

I'm doing this
because you murdered him.

Then this is about me
and my team.

This is about what we did.

This isn't about Natasha.
Just let her go.

Just kill me. Just kill me.
No, no, no.

There's still something
I need from you.

You told me your version
of events,

but there is another one
that I also heard,

one about a CIA insider, hmm?

Working with the Chechens...

Deckard.

He killed Mikhail,
and your team helped him do so.

I told you, Deckard's dead.

Yes, you did tell me that.

Mm-hmm.

But where is his body?

It just disappeared.
No one has seen him.

Deckard,
what do you want to do?

I can't go back, Auggie.

Everything that just happened--

it's too much, man,
too many deaths.

I can't even sleep as it is.
It's okay.

Hey, it's okay. Come in.
Let the CIA get you out of here.

No, man, they're just gonna
plug me back in the machine,

drop me somewhere else
where things will be worse.

Okay, I need to get
away from all this--

everything.

What are you saying?

I'm saying you don't know
what happened to me, okay?

Maybe I died,

all you know for sure
is that I disappeared.

- This is really what you want?
- Yeah.

Okay, I saved your life.

You help me save mine.

I know a way out of here.

You can escape
without being seen. Come on.

You can keep quiet, but let
me assure you of one thing.

You are going to die here...

In the same place
my brother died,

and the only two choices
you have to make

are whether Miss Petrovna lives,
and how much she'll suffer.

Joan, we have scouted
this area for an hour,

and there is no way
to make an approach

without dealing with the guards.

So no visual confirmation?

No, not without potentially
alerting them we are here.

No, it's too risky. I'll get
them to send in the SEALs.

I just need a little time.
Joan, I'm not sitting here.

Annie, the building
could be booby-trapped.

Belenko won't have made
this easy for you.

The longer we wait,

the more likely
it is they'll kill Auggie.

I will get you
reinforcements.

I promise.

One of Belenko's guards isn't
a confirmation of our target.

All due respect, Commander,

Annie cannot get you that
without considerable risk.

And yet you're asking my men
to take that same risk.

It's a risk
they're trained for.

Mrs. Campbell,

I don't run an operation
on hunches or emotion.

I run it on intelligence.

I don't send my men
into hostile countries

unless I'm absolutely sure
what I'm looking for

is actually there.

Are you here to help us?

Because I feel like all
you're doing is stonewalling.

You can justify your choice
any way you want,

but if my operative dies
because of your inaction,

it's on you.

Belenko, don't do this.
Belenko, don't do this.

I'm not doing this.

You're doing this by not
telling me what I need to know.

Remember that.

Wait. Wait.

- Aah!
- Stop! Stop! Stop it!

Please, stop!

Stop!

I'll talk!
I'll tell you everything.

Oh, screw him.

Don't tell him anything, Auggie.
Tash, he will kill you.

That's my choice.

He's right, Natasha.
I will kill you.

- Aah!
- No! No!

Stop!

I told you I'd talk.

What's happening?
Where--where are they going?

They left.

We're alone.
What the hell are you doing?

Why are you letting
him torture you?

I told him
I'd tell him the truth.

You know how much
I like being told what to do.

I don't trust him.

I think he's going
to kill us both.

I'd rather go down fighting.

I'd rather
not go down at all.

Did you get a look
at this building

when they brought you in?
What's it look like?

It's some kind of old,
ruined apartment building.

We're in the basement.

So he was telling the truth.

He said his brother
was killed here in 2005.

I remember it.
What does that mean?

It means there's a way out.

The hook I'm hanging from--
it's a chain, right?

Yeah.

All right,
is there anything on that chain?

Anything else on that chain
right above me?

No.
What are you gonna do?

The guards
slipped me on this thing.

If I can get my feet
hooked on to that chain,

maybe I can slip myself off.

Aah!

Commander Wheeler, I was
hoping we could have a word.

You just being friendly 'cause
your wife chewed me out?

- She's got strong convictions.
- Mm-hmm.

I can see you do as well,
Commander.

Maybe you don't know this.

I lost a son last year.

I'm sorry to hear that.

I know how something like that
can color your decisions.

Your son gave up his life
to protect American lives.

That's noble.

It's what he chose.

It's what every member
of the SEALs chooses.

Every person in this office
right now

is here because
of Auggie and Annie.

They'd gladly risk their lives,
myself included,

if it meant we could save them.

This isn't a perfect situation,

and I can't make it any better.

All I can do, sir,

is ask for your help
to bring our people home.

I got him!
You find Auggie!

Belenko!

Don't move.

You should drop
your weapon, Miss Walker.

You being funny?

This is a dead man's switch.

If you shoot me, I drop it,

and this building explodes,
and your friend Auggie dies.

How do I know
Auggie's still alive?

You don't, but are you willing
to take that risk?

One more step,
and I'll drop it.

The next one hits you.

Go. You're not going
to shoot me, Annie.

- You sure?
- Yes...

Because you want Auggie to live.

I, however, do not.

Auggie!

Auggie!

Stephanie Banks.

- Whoa.
- What happened?

She was shot, fell through
a window trying to escape--

lucky someone found her
when they did.

- You able to walk?
- Yeah.

We need to get out of here
before the Russians show up.

Yeah, I'll be fine.
I'll be fine.

He's not fine.
He needs help.

Let me help you.

This isn't over.

What do you mean?

The people Belenko
was targeting, my unit,

there's one guy still alive--
James Deckard.

I owe him my life.

Belenko knows about him,

which means it's only a matter
of time before he finds him.

We've got to get to him first.

Looks like our ride's here.
