La Femme Nikita (1997–2001): Season 3, Episode 20 - Three Eyed Turtle - full transcript

ALL RIGHT. RED
TEAM, WE'RE READY.

KNOCK OUT YOUR
PRIMARIES. MOVE UP TO FINAL.

GO!

WHAT'S OUR COVERAGE?

NOTHING ON THE FIRST FLOOR.

OK, HOLD.

GET ME SCENARIOS 3 AND 5.

MAKE SURE THEY'RE SYNCHED TIGHT.

VICTOR, WHAT'S GOING ON?

IT'S GOING TO BE TIGHT.
THEY'RE HEAVILY ARMED.

BLUE TEAM, BACK UP
VICTOR ON THE NORTH.



[gun firing]

WE'RE READY FOR THE INTERFACE.

SO NOW THIS GRANDMASTER'S
WHINING ABOUT A REMATCH

BECAUSE MY PROGRAM
BEAT HIM IN 19 MOVES.

YOU KNOW, YOU HAVE...

THE INTERFACE, GREG.
WE'RE IN MID-MISSION.

RIGHT, THE INTERFACE.
UH, DIDN'T DO IT.

WHAT?

YOU HAVE REALLY NICE EYES.

I'VE GOT LIVE OPS OUT THERE.

CHILL, SEYMOUR! DO YOU MIND?

THANK YOU.

WHAT CHANNEL ARE THEY ON?

WHAT ARE YOU DOING?



I'M GOING TO WALK
THEM THROUGH IT.

HOW? YOU HAVEN'T WORKED
UP THE INTERFACE YET.

I HAVEN'T PRACTICED TYING
MY SHOES YET TODAY, EITHER.

VICTOR. WHERE ARE YOU?

SAME PLACE. I'M PINNED.

NO PROBLEM.

BLUE TEAM, I NEED YOU SPLIT.

3 IN THE EAST, ONE IN THE HOLE.

2, STAY ON THE PERIMETER.

(Birkoff) YOU IDIOT!

BIRKY, PLEASE.

I NEED YOU TO CYCLE THE EGRESS.

THAT'S HOW IT STAYS PROTECTED.

THAT'S WHY I NEEDED
THE INTERFACE.

(operative) COMM.,
WE'RE LOSING FEED.

WHERE'S OUR COORDINATES?

OH, MY GOD!

EVERYBODY HOLD.

VICTOR, WE ARE
SATURATED 2 CLICKS OVER.

WHAT'S YOUR CALL?

[gun firing]

CUT ME OFF.

Y-YOU WON'T MAKE IT OUT ALIVE.

(Victor) CAN'T BE HELPED.

IT'S THE ONLY WAY
TO SAVE THE TEAM.

[men chattering]

[gun firing]

EVERYONE ABORT.

ALL TEAMS BACK TO
YOUR EXIT POINTS NOW.

GO ON. GET OUT OF HERE.

COME ON!

[firing continues]

[gun firing]

[Victor groaning]

[woman speaking French]

IT WAS AN UNFORTUNATE INCIDENT,

BUT IT WAS ONLY A STUTTER STEP.

WE'VE ALREADY BEGUN...

SINCE WHEN DO YOU REDEFINE
FAILURE AS A STUTTER STEP?

THIS MISSION WAS CRITICAL
TO THE ENTIRE NEAR EAST HUB.

IT'LL BE TAKEN CARE OF, GEORGE.

YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW
WHY IT HAPPENED YET.

WE'RE WORKING ON IT.

NOT GOOD ENOUGH.

STOP DEFLECTING
AND START LISTENING.

I AM NOT HAPPY WITH ONE,
AND MORE TO THE POINT, PAUL,

I AM NOT HAPPY WITH YOU.

I WANT ALL 3RD COLUMN OPERATIONS

SENT HERE FOR REDIRECT.

THAT'S HALF OUR LOAD.

AND I WANT THE REMAINDER
PIPED THROUGH MY CONTROLLERS.

YOU WILL NOT SHARPEN A
PENCIL WITHOUT MY APPROVAL.

THIS IS YOUR FAULT.

I BEG YOUR PARDON.

TACTICAL FALLS
UNDER YOUR PURVIEW.

WHEN THEY SCREW UP, I LOOK BAD.

I'LL FIND THE SOURCE.

YES, YOU WILL.

IF YOU PAID AS MUCH
ATTENTION TO THIS

AS YOU DO TO
YOUR IDIOTIC PLANTS,

THIS WOULDN'T BE HAPPENING.

I DON'T THINK THAT'S FAIR.

I DON'T CARE WHAT'S FAIR, AND
I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU THINK.

WHAT ARE YOU WORKING ON?

JUST STUFF.

IT'S A MISSION
EVALUATION, ISN'T IT?

YEAH.

BIRKOFF, YOU'RE NOT GOING
TO HANG ME OUT, ARE YOU?

COME ON. I DIDN'T HAVE
ENOUGH INFORMATION.

IT WAS ON YOUR PANEL.

I NEVER READ MY PANELS.

YOU KNOW THAT. I DON'T NEED TO.

THIS TIME YOU DID.

BIRKOFF,

THEY'LL CANCEL ME.

PROBABLY NOT, WITH MY LUCK.

YOU'RE TOO VALUABLE.

WRONG. THEY JUST RECRUITED
A STATS ANALYST FROM O.S.I.

AND A PRIVACY CODER FROM MOSCOW.

BETWEEN THE 2 OF THEM, THEY
CAN COVER EVERYTHING I DO.

YEAH.

BUT NOT AS FAST.

FASTER.

I NEED ANSWERS, BIRKOFF.

I'M JUST FINISHING IT UP NOW.

TELL ME.

THE PROFILE WAS
DOWNGRADED ON SITE,

AND THERE WAS NO
CONTINGENCY TO COVER IT.

THAT'S THE JOB OF
THE MISSION HEAD.

RIGHT.

YEAH. VICTOR SCREWED UP,

BUT IN A WAY, IT'S
POETIC JUSTICE.

YOU JUST WOULD HAVE HAD
TO CANCEL HIM ANYWAYS.

SEND IT TO ME WHEN YOU'RE DONE.

YEAH.

SOME QUICK THINKING, SEYMOUR.

I OWE YOU ONE.

HEY. WHAT ARE YOU WORKING ON?

WHERE'S THAT SMILE?

SO, YOU THOUGHT
ABOUT WHAT I SAID?

'CAUSE I WAS SERIOUS, YOU KNOW.

AS YOU KNOW, 2 DAYS AGO,

WE WERE CLOSING
IN ON PIERRE BRULOIS,

WHEN THE STRIKE TEAM WENT DOWN.

BRULOIS IS ON THE
PENTAGON RED LIST,

THE MEMBER OF A HIGHLY-PLACED

NAVAL INTELLIGENCE
GROUP WHO'S GONE ROGUE.

ALL THE AGENCIES
WANT HIM TAKEN OUT

BECAUSE OF THE
DAMAGE HE COULD CAUSE

IF HIS KNOWLEDGE WERE PEDDLED
TO THE TERRORIST COMMUNITY.

WE'VE BEEN USING SATELLITES
AND BROAD-SPECTRUM TAGS

TO GET A POSITION ON BRULOIS.

SO FAR THEY HAVEN'T
YIELDED UP ENOUGH DATA.

(Operations) WE'LL GO
AFTER HIM BY DEGREES.

WE'LL START WITH
THIS WOMAN HERE,

FRANCINE CHU, ONE
OF HIS MISTRESSES.

MICHAEL WILL HEAD THE TEAM.

NIKITA WILL ASSIST TACTICAL.

I'LL INITIALIZE THE NOTES AND
GET THEM OVER TO WALTER.

IT'S ALREADY BEEN DONE.

BY WHO?

ME.

WHAT?

HE'S BEEN BUMPED TO ACTIVE.

YOU'RE NEEDED ON SITE.

WAIT A MINUTE.

HE'S NOT READY TO RUN A MISSION.

WHY?

HE'S JUST NOT.

IF YOU HAVE SPECIFICS, TELL ME.

IF NOT, GET TO WORK.

I GUESS HE'LL BE FINE.

NO MISTAKES THIS TIME.

(Operative) GOT THAT
INFORMATION ON THAT MISSION

YOU WERE ASKING ABOUT
EARLIER. IT'S ON THE COMPUTER.

I CAN DOWNLOAD IT AND
BRING IT TO YOU LATER.

MADELINE.

IN A MINUTE.

NOW.

EXCUSE ME.

YES.

GEORGE CALLED AGAIN.

HE'S NOT SATISFIED WITH
THE BUCHAREST DEBRIEF.

WHAT IS IT HE OBJECTS TO?

I DON'T KNOW. GET ON WITH
HIM AND TAKE CARE OF IT.

OH, ONE OTHER THING.

YES?

I'D LIKE TO SEE
YOU IN THE TOWER.

WHAT IS IT YOU WANT ME TO BE?

YOUR WHIPPING POST
OR YOUR WHORE?

I'LL SEE YOU TONIGHT. 11:00.

(Greg) ALL RIGHT, SEYMOUR.

THE SURVEILLANCE
LOOP IS IN PLACE NOW.

MICHAEL, HOLD. THERE'S
2 ON THE NORTH RIM.

COME IN FROM BEHIND.

SEE THE UNIT?

(Birkoff) YES.

N-85, LATE MODEL.

(Birkoff) YOU GOT IT, HILLINGER?

YOU'RE IN.

BIG CHALLENGE.

(Birkoff) MICHAEL, WE'VE
DISABLED SECURITY.

[buzzing]

HI. GOOD EVENING.

OK, MICHAEL. I GOT IT.

THEY'RE IN THE NEXT ROOM.

WHAT'S THIS?

WHAT?

LOOKS LIKE A SENSOR'S
GONE DOWN ON THE VAN.

CHECK THE BASE SYSTEM.
MAKE SURE EVERYTHING'S CLEAN.

THERE'S SOMETHING IN THE ALLEY.

HILLINGER, WHY DON'T I HAVE
SYNCH ON THE EXTERIOR VID?

IT LOOKS LIKE A
SENSOR. I'D GET ON IT.

CAN YOU LEAVE THE VAN?

MICHAEL, ARE WE CLEAR?

(Michael) YES.

OK, HILLINGER, I'M GOING OUT.

[dog barking]

[grunting]

LET'S GO.

NICE TRY.

WHAT, ARE YOU TALKING TO ME?

YOU'RE THE ONE
WHO TRIED TO KILL ME.

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

WHAT AM I TALKING ABOUT?

IT'S CALLED BLACK TRACK.

IT SHOWS WHAT YOU TRIED TO DO.

RIGHT HERE.

YOU CUT THE SURVEILLANCE LOOP,

GAVE AWAY MY POSITION.

YOU KNOCK OUT MY MONITOR.

THEN YOU SEND ME
OUT TO GET KILLED.

DIDN'T KNOW WE
COULD DO THAT, DID YOU,

RESIDENT GENIUS?

HE'S THE ONE WHO
SCREWED UP IN BUCHAREST.

I COVERED FOR HIM.

I WANT THIS TO STOP.

I DON'T.

I'M TIRED OF BEING
NEEDED BY YOU.

NEED SOMEONE ELSE.

IT DOESN'T WORK THAT WAY.

ON THE OUTSIDE THIS WOULD
BE SEXUAL HARASSMENT.

WE'RE NOT ON THE OUTSIDE.

NO, NOT YET. GIVE
THEM ANOTHER 48 HOURS.

YES, IF THE FORCE DOESN'T
HOLD, THEN WE'LL CALL ON NATO.

FINE. IN AN HOUR.

SO, RUBIN, HOW'S THE
MESS AT ONE COMING ALONG?

WE'VE ASSIMILATED ALMOST
60% OF THEIR CURRENT PROJECTS.

GOOD.

BUT THERE'S SOMETHING ELSE.

ARE YOU STILL INTERESTED
IN REMOVING OPERATIONS?

WHAT HAVE YOU FOUND?

A WEAK LINK.

CONTINUE, GREG.

LOOK, I'LL COP TO
THIS INTERFACE THING.

ALL RIGHT, FINE.

BUT THE REST OF THIS
STUFF IS COMPLETELY BOGUS.

BIRKOFF IS JUST JEALOUS.

OF WHAT?

ARE YOU SAYING YOU
DIDN'T INTENTIONALLY

PUT BIRKOFF AT RISK?

ABSOLUTELY NOT.

WHAT ABOUT THE BLACK TRACK?

IT WAS A GLITCH.

YOU OVERWROTE THE
BOUNDS OF THE ARRAY.

YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE DECLARED
IT A CHAR POINT. IT SHOULD...

SHUT UP.

BIRKOFF?

THE TRANSMISSION
WAS ALPHA SECURE.

WHAT'S "ALPHA SECURE"?

YOU CAN GO BACK, GREG.

NO. WAIT A MINUTE. WHAT
ARE YOU GOING TO DO TO ME?

NOTHING. JUST GET
BACK TO YOUR POST.

NO. TELL ME WHAT
"ALPHA SECURE" MEANS.

I CAN EXPLAIN THIS.

NOW.

[door opening and closing]

WE'RE RUNNING 3 DOMESTIC
MISSIONS, 27 ON THE OUTSIDE.

CAN WE REPLACE HILLINGER
AND NOT SLOW THAT DOWN?

NOT REALLY.

NOT UNLESS I CAN
USE THE NEW RECRUITS.

WHAT NEW RECRUITS?

THE ONES FROM O.S.I. AND MOSCOW.

WHO?

NEVER MIND. I'M MIXING THEM
UP WITH SOME OF OUR CONTACTS.

WHICH CONTACTS WOULD THEY BE?

I CAN COVER ALL THE MISSIONS.
I DON'T NEED HILLINGER.

THEN GET TO IT.

[door opening and closing]

CANCEL HILLINGER.

WE COULD DO THAT, OR...

WHY DO I NEED TO
HEAR THAT EVERY TIME?

WHY DO I NEED 2 ALTERNATIVES
WHEN I GIVE AN ORDER?

OR WE COULD USE HIM
ON THE BRULOIS MANEUVER.

HE'D MAKE A VALUABLE
ABEYANCE OPERATIVE.

FINE.

DO IT.

AND DO SOMETHING
ABOUT THAT PERFUME.

IT SMELLS CHEAP.

(Birkoff) WHY'D YOU LIE TO
ME ABOUT THE NEW RECRUITS?

THERE AREN'T ANY.

GOD! WHAT DO YOU THINK?

YOU WERE GOING TO
BLOW ME OUT OF THE WATER.

BIRKOFF, REALLY, WHAT ARE
THEY GOING TO DO WITH ME?

I WOULDN'T MAKE
ANY LONG-TERM PLANS.

EXCELLENT.

YOU WANTED TO SEE ME?

FRANCINE CHU IS READY. I'D
LIKE YOU TO TRANSFER HER.

IS SOMETHING THE MATTER?

ONCE WE GET A LOCATION
FROM HER, PUT A TEAM TOGETHER,

MAKE SURE HILLINGER'S ON IT.

AND IF I DON'T NEED HIM?

MAKE SURE YOU NEED HIM.

DO YOU HAVE A MOMENT?

NO.

I WILL NOT TOLERATE THIS
KIND OF TREATMENT FROM YOU.

I'M SORRY IF GEORGE
IS UNDERMINING YOU,

BUT I AM YOUR ALLY,
NOT YOUR ENEMY.

YOU'RE NEITHER.

YOU OBEY ME AND
WILL CONTINUE TO DO SO

UNTIL I'M DONE WITH YOU.

IF I'VE DONE SOMETHING
TO UPSET YOU,

I ASSURE YOU, IT
WAS UNINTENTIONAL.

NOW, LET'S TALK ABOUT IT.

IT'S BAD ENOUGH YOUR
PEOPLE AREN'T PERFORMING

UP TO STANDARD,

BUT TO HAVE TO STAND HERE
AND LISTEN TO YOU GROVEL

IS TOTALLY PATHETIC.

I WISH YOU COULD SEE YOURSELF.

THIS IS MADELINE.

I'VE CONSIDERED YOUR OFFER,
AND I'M READY TO MEET YOU.

HELLO, GEORGE.

MADELINE.

GOOD TO SEE YOU.

IT SOUNDS LIKE THINGS ARE
DETERIORATING OVER THERE.

IT'S A DIFFICULT TIME.

STRESSFUL SITUATIONS OFTEN

BRING OUT THE TRUE
NATURE OF THE BEAST.

HE'S BEEN UNDER
PRESSURE HIS ENTIRE LIFE,

BUT HE'S NEVER BEEN LIKE THIS.

IT HAPPENS MORE
OFTEN THAN YOU THINK.

ESPECIALLY WITH MEN HIS AGE.

IF WE DON'T DO
THIS EXACTLY RIGHT...

WITH MY RESOURCES
AND YOU INSIDE,

HE WON'T KNOW WHAT HIT HIM.

AND WHEN IT'S ALL OVER,

WILL I RUN THE SECTION?

WHEN IT'S OVER, YOU'LL
RUN ALL SECTIONS.

WHY ARE YOU NOT IN PREP?

I WAS LOOKING OVER THE PROFILE.

(Nikita) IS IT RIGHT?

YES. WHY?

WELL, HOW COULD
HILLINGER BE IN ABEYANCE?

HE MADE A TERMINAL
SEQUENCE OF MISTAKES.

CAN I CHANGE WITH SOMEONE?

I DON'T FEEL COMFORTABLE ABOUT
USHERING HIM INTO THE BLACK.

YOU WERE SELECTED BECAUSE
OF YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH HIM.

THE PROFILE STANDS.

(Michael) WHEN YOU GET TO
THE PERIMETER, GO SILENT.

RETRIEVE BRULOIS.

NIKITA AND HILLINGER
WILL SET THE CHARGE.

EVERYTHING WITHIN 200
METERS WILL BE RED ZONED.

MAKE SURE YOU'RE OUT.

(Birkoff) I'M SETTING A FREQUENCY
THAT WILL GET YOU TO THE TARGET.

YOU'LL PICK IT UP WHEN
YOU ENTER THE PARKING LOT.

GOT IT. GO.

DID YOU DOUBLE-CHECK
THE NUMBERS?

YEAH, WHY?

WHEN I RUN THIS DEVICE,

IT SAYS I HAVE 30
SECONDS TO GET OUT.

SO?

SO I JUST DID A
CALCULATION IN MY HEAD.

THIS THING'S GOING TO GO
OFF AS SOON AS I HIT RETURN.

GREG, IT'S YOUR FIRST TIME OUT.

THEY INSTALLED A NEW DELAY.

THERE WASN'T TIME TO INCLUDE IT.

WHEN WE GET TO OUR FINAL
MARK, JUST DO WHAT I SAY.

YOU'LL BE ALL RIGHT.

THANKS.

[buzzing]

ALL SET. ARE YOU READY?

YEAH. JUST GIVE ME A
COUPLE OF SECONDS.

WHAT'S THAT?

IT'S NOTHING. I'M JUST
DOING A PARITY CHECK.

PARITY CHECK? NOW?

YEAH. THE 2ND PART
OF THE FRAME BUFFER

HAD SOME FRAGMENTING BITS.

I DIDN'T GET ENOUGH
TIME TO REPLACE THEM,

SO I ADDED A NEW
PATHWAY TO DACS.

DON'T TRY TO SNOW ME,
GREG. WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

NIKITA, GO.

OK, GREG, THE SOUTH
EGRESS IS SECURE.

THAT'LL BE YOUR EXIT POINT.

STAND BY TO START THE CLOCK.

COME ON, GUYS.

OK, GREG. GO.

WAIT! THE DELAY, IT'S A LIE.

IT WILL BLOW 5 SECONDS
AFTER YOU ENTER.

WHAT ABOUT YOU?

I SHOULD BE OUT OF HERE.

WHAT'S GOING ON?

GREG, YOU'RE IN ABEYANCE.
SET IT AT NEG 40, NOW.

YEAH, I ALREADY DID.

LET'S GO!

DID WE GET BRULOIS?

NO.

WHY NOT?

HE WASN'T ON SITE.
BUT IT WASN'T A LOSS.

MEANING WHAT?

WHEN WE TOOK OUT HIS SUBSTATION,

WE PICKED UP A COMMUNICATION
FROM A SURVIVOR.

IT WENT DIRECTLY TO BRULOIS.

THAT'S A CONFIRM?

YEAH. HE'S BEEN
TAGGED. HE'S IN LONDON.

PREPARE A TEAM.

ACTUALLY, EVERYBODY'S ASSIGNED.

OVERSIGHT TOOK
PRACTICALLY ALL OUR PEOPLE.

USE MICHAEL'S TEAM.

THEY'RE NOT PREPARED
FOR A PIGGYBACK.

DAMN IT, BIRKOFF, BE A
LITTLE CREATIVE HERE. THINK.

HAVE THEM RESET
THROUGH STOCKHOLM.

PREDATE IT SO IT LOOKS LIKE Q1.

WE'RE GOING THROUGH
SOME CHANGES HERE.

IF YOU CAN'T KEEP UP,
YOU'RE NOT NEEDED.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?

I WANTED TO LET YOU KNOW

THAT HILLINGER
SUSTAINED THE MISSION.

THAT'S ALL RIGHT.

I CAN USE HIM FOR
ONE MORE, ANYWAY.

YOU DIDN'T NEED TO COME
HERE TO TELL ME THAT.

THAT'S TRUE.

I THOUGHT YOU MIGHT WANT
TO RELAX A LITTLE FIRST.

I REALIZED I HAVEN'T
BEEN AS ACCESSIBLE

AS YOU NEED ME TO BE.

THAT'S GOING TO CHANGE.

YOU CAN USE ME
ANYTIME, DAY OR NIGHT.

IF I'M WHAT YOU NEED TO
STAY FOCUSED ON YOUR WORK,

THEN YOU CAN HAVE ME.

THANK YOU, MADELINE.

WHAT IS IT?

YOU WON'T BELIEVE WHAT
I JUST GOT FROM ONE.

WHAT?

A BACK CHANNEL LIST.

PAUL?

VALIDATED. HE CAME
DIRECTLY FROM HIS OFFICE.

MADELINE WAS ABLE
TO FLUSH IT OUT.

DID YOU LOOK AT IT?

YES. IT'S PERFECT.

HE'S WORKING WITH BRULOIS.
THAT'S WHY THE SECTION'S

MISSED HIM THE LAST 2 ATTEMPTS.

PAUL'S SENDING HIM INTEL.

THAT'S NOT GOING TO BE ENOUGH.

WHAT SHOULD I DO?

NOTHING.

THIS ONE'S MINE.

I CAN GET THAT
INFORMATION YOU WANTED.

I NEED IT AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

I CAN'T GET OUT AGAIN
FOR ANOTHER 38 HOURS.

THAT'S NOT SOON ENOUGH.

THEN I'LL MESSENGER IT OVER.

WHEN?

THIS AFTERNOON.

IS THIS SOMEONE WE CAN TRUST?

OF COURSE IT IS.

ALL RIGHT.

[people chattering]

ONE THING.

I WANT THE COMPANY KEY FILE.

THE KEY FILE. WHY?

I WANT THE VISIBILITY. IT'S
TOO RISKY ANY OTHER WAY.

YOU KNOW I CAN'T LET THAT OUT.

FINE. THEN LET'S CALL IT OFF.

GOODBYE, GEORGE.

MADELINE.

OK, GREG. THE UNIT SHOULD
BE DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF YOU.

[exclaiming]

I GOT IT.

[cell phone ringing]

I GOT TO ASK MYSELF, SEYMOUR,

WHY DID YOU HAVE TO
BRING ME ALONG FOR THIS?

EVEN YOU COULD
HAVE FOUND THIS OUT.

JUST DO IT.

IT'S DONE.

MICHAEL, YOU'VE GOT ENTRANCE.

[buzzing]

(man) HEY, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

ALL RIGHT, EASY,
MAC. EASY. EASY.

(Michael) TARGET SECURE.

OK, LET'S GO TO POST.

(Birkoff) HILLINGER,
GO TO "B" CHANNEL.

"B" CHANNEL?

WELL, NOW THE
PARTY'S REALLY STARTED.

[high-pitched buzzing]

ALL TEAMS EXIT.

(Birkoff) INCINERATION
IN 60 SECONDS.

COMM. IS DOWN.

[high-pitched buzzing]

OW! WHAT WAS THAT?

SORRY, WE WERE JAMMED.

SEYMOUR,

WHAT ARE WE TIMING?

GREG!

WHAT?

(Nikita) IF YOU CAN
HEAR ME, GREG, GET OUT.

NO, NIKITA! I CAN'T HEAR YOU!

GREG, CAN YOU HEAR ME? GET OUT!

WHAT?

IF YOU CAN HEAR
ME, GREG, GET OUT!

GREG!

WE HAVE TO GO.

WE HAVE TO GO.

WHAT? I CAN'T HEAR YOU! NIKITA!

YOU'RE A VERY LUCKY
MAN, MR. BRULOIS.

REALLY?

HOW DO YOU FIGURE THAT?

YOU SHOULD BE DEAD BY NOW.

IN OTHER WORDS,
YOU'LL KEEP ME ALIVE

TILL YOU GET WHAT YOU WANT.

ACTUALLY, WE KNOW WHICH
GROUP YOU SOLD YOUR INTEL TO.

I HAVE A MUCH
BETTER OFFER FOR YOU.

HOW YOU DOIN'?

LET'S HAVE IT.

FIRST, THE KEY FILE.

HERE.

GREAT. THIS IS FOR YOU.

WHAT IS THIS?

YOU'VE JUST COMMITTED HIGH
TREASON AGAINST THE AGENCIES

AND YOUR GOVERNMENT.

WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS?

I WANT MY PEOPLE RETURNED.

ALL MY FILES AND
RESOURCES RELEASED

BY THE END OF THE DAY.

IT'S GOING TO TAKE
A LOT LONGER THAN...

EXCUSE ME.

ARE YOU INTERRUPTING, GEORGE?

I'M SORRY. PLEASE GO ON.

I WANT YOUR RESIGNATION.

I BEG YOUR PARDON?

ACCOMPANIED BY
YOUR RECOMMENDATION

THAT I SUCCEED YOU AT OVERSIGHT.

AND WHAT REASON
SHOULD I GIVE FOR LEAVING?

CITE FAILING HEALTH.

I'LL BE BY YOUR OFFICE
FIRST THING IN THE MORNING

TO APPROVE THE DOCUMENT

BEFORE YOU HAND IT
OVER TO THE BOARD.

IT WILL BE DONE.

GOOD.

PAUL.

GEORGE.

SO YOU KNEW WE WERE
WATCHING ALL THIS TIME.

YES, WE DID.

IT WAS QUITE A PLAY.

2 YEARS PRETENDING TO HAVE
A RELATIONSHIP WITH MADELINE

FOR THE SOLE PURPOSE OF
ADVERTISING A VULNERABILITY

THAT NEVER EXISTED.

THE DOCUMENT, GEORGE.

JUST SO I'M CLEAR.

THERE WAS NEVER ANYTHING
BETWEEN THE TWO OF YOU?

NOT THAT IT MATTERS
NOW, BUT, NO.

THERE WAS NEVER ANYTHING.

ADRIAN AND I OFTEN SPOKE OF IT.

MARVELED AT IT, ACTUALLY.

YOUR ALMOST SUPERHUMAN ABILITY

TO DETACH YOURSELF
FROM FEELING ANYTHING.

YOU'RE TRYING MY
PATIENCE, GEORGE.

LET ME SEE WHAT
YOU'VE WRITTEN UP.

THAT'S WHY I BECAME
SUSPICIOUS A FEW MONTHS AGO.

WANTING SOMEONE,
NEEDING SOMEONE,

IT WASN'T YOUR STYLE.

THAT'S WHEN I COMMITTED
TO A COURSE OF ACTION.

WHAT ARE YOU SAYING?

SEND HIM IN.

HILLINGER.

EVERYTHING YOU
DID WAS CALCULATED.

EVEN GETTING BIRKOFF

TO PUT YOU IN ABEYANCE,
SO YOU COULD ESCAPE.

YES, HE'S GOT QUITE THE
MAKINGS, HASN'T HE, PAUL?

YOUNG MR. HILLINGER
PROVED HIS BRILLIANCE

IN EXTRICATING
THE GEMSTONE FILE.

I NOW KNOW EVERYTHING
THAT HAPPENED.

WITH ADRIAN, YOUR
INSATIABLE QUEST FOR POWER...

YOU HAVE MY MOTIVATION
WRONG, BUT, YES,

MY POWER BASE IS CONSIDERABLE.

YES, I KNOW.

AND WHAT DO YOU WANT?

YOU KNOW WHAT I WANT.

THE KEY FILE.

YOU KNOW I CAN'T GIVE YOU THAT.

SO, HERE WE ARE.

[woman speaking French]
