Spy City (2020–…): Season 1, Episode 4 - The Flower Market - full transcript
Fielding's clever plan seems to be working; the Russians are agitated, running scared; a date is mentioned for the first time -- Aug. 13.
I went to the Soviets,
to Lubkov, because I was trying to
find the man who killed my husband.
His name is Vasily Lubkov.
What's so interesting about him?
I think he's got the answers
to the Beethoven deaths.
Fuck me!
I know everything.
You can buy my silence.
I want to leave Berlin
and go to England.
Mr. Scott.
My name is Victor Kovrin.
Sometimes you need to
stir things up to gain clarity.
Now, can we talk about the death
of the scientist Manfred Ziegler?
I don't know anything
about this man.
I'm going to let you go.
- What?
I'm now your only friend.
If you ever feel in danger,
memorize this number,
call it and say, you
"feel rather unwell."
Hey, good morning. Good morning.
I hope you're not still tired.
I'm exhausted.
Mr. Scott?
What a surprise.
Mr. Kovrin.
What a coincidence.
I was just looking out of the
window as we passed by and.
My god, Fielding Scott!
Yes, what a coincidence.
Do you live nearby?
I think you know where I live.
I know a lot, but.
I don't know everything.
For example, I don't
know anything about Beirut.
Beirut?
Funny you should mention
that. Have you been there?
No. Have you? Never.
I'm glad I spotted
you, Mr. Scott.
Since you came to Berlin,
things have become more exciting.
What, in the Air
Liaison Committee?
That's your job, isn't it?
Must be interesting
work. Has its perks.
Well, I wish you a good evening.
Maybe we'll meet
again, one of these days.
We're very thorough. We
never throw anything away.
Good. I wish we had the
same presence of mind.
This is it. All the evidence from
the murder of Simon Haldane.
Could you sign your name, sir?
I see you've looked at
this evidence before, sir.
Yes. Twice before.
I keep thinking I'm
missing something.
Everyone has looked at this.
The British, the
Americans, the Berlin CID.
Time after time.
There are no
secrets in this box.
Something should be
here, and it's not here.
This is life. It's essential
mystery. Is it not?
Something should be
here, and it's not here.
I don't give a fuck about
"life's essential mystery."
Any news of Lubkov?
I have no news.
It seems he's been released.
He's back in East Berlin.
What? Released?
Why would they release
him? It makes no sense.
Petrie says he has no idea.
He said the Lubkov snatch
has nothing to do with him.
It looks like an operation
Scott did himself.
Scott?
Do you think that's possible
without Petrie's approval?
Certainly unusual.
But I believe Petrie. He's
obviously upset about the situation.
It's all very strange.
So what does that make Scott?
If he has the power,
the autonomy, to snatch a Russian
agent on his own and release him.
It makes him something of a dangerous
man, I would say. Wouldn't you?
Someone we should
keep a close eye on.Yes.
So what do we do about him?
Do you want me to do something?
I want you to keep
a close eye on him.
Have him followed.
With Petrie, we
know where we stand.
But now, with Scott, this
rather changes everything.
You'll have to be careful.
Yes, you're right.
Madame Bloch?
Yes? Lubkov sent me.
We have information
about Udo Hoff.
Where is Lubkov?
Please come with me.
You will be met
on the second floor.
I will wait for you here.
No, it's a great pleasure to
meet you, Madame Bloch.
Also, Comrade Lubkov
speaks very highly of you.
I was told Lubkov
had information.
Well, he told me
you are very persistent on
getting information on someone
on someone
called Udo Hoff.
I only expect you to
keep your part of the deal.
I compromised myself.
Towards my own people.
And Vasily Lubkov promised
to get me to Udo Hoff in return.
That's all I want.
Your search is over.
Udo Hoff is dead.
Stop it right there, Mr. Kovrin.
I saw Udo Hoff with my own eyes.
So your beautiful eyes
were deceiving you.
Why do you work with such men?
Men like Udo Hoff?
You fought a war to destroy
these people, these Nazis.
Over 20 million
Russians died in this war.
But yet now you work with them,
hand in glove, these scum, these Nazis.
You don't understand,
Madame Bloch.
In this new world
you cannot always
choose your colleagues.
So you admit it.
You do know Udo Hoff?
I admit nothing.
I just want to tell you
that it's not only futile
searching for a dead man.
It can also be dangerous.
You better drop it, Madame.
I have nothing
more to say to you.
What's happened?
I went to the East.
I met Victor Kovrin.
Jesus Christ.
I was told he had
news of Udo Hoff.
Did he?
No.
He wanted to warn me
not to search for him.
And then he just
let you go again?
Yes, the meeting was terminated.
It was lucky you
weren't terminated.
He didn't mean
to let me know, but.
Kovrin confirmed
that Udo Hoff is alive.
So he is in the East?
Yes, I have people
making inquiries. I told you.
Was that wise?
I'm not concerned
about being wise.
Udo Hoff is in the East.
That much I know for sure.
Somewhere in the East.
That hardly narrows it down.
Maybe you can help me find him?
Kovrin has gone out
of his way to warn you.
I'd take that warning
seriously if I were you.
I'm taking it very seriously.
If they want to kill
me, let them kill me.
But I am not going to let the
bastard live who took my husband.
Yes, and I'm not going to
let them take you from me.
So you won't help me?
No, I won't help you.
Please.
Please stop
looking for this man.
I'm not feeling very well.
Yes.
I need to come. Now.
I know the place. I
can meet you there.
The snack stand.
Okay.
I have information, important
information about Berlin.
Berlin?
What information? I
only speak to one man.
I want to speak to this man.
An Englishman, only to him.
What man? What's his name?
His name is Fielding Scott.
We don't know anyone
called Fielding Scott.
You'd better tell us
what your information is.
I only talk to Fielding Scott.
Why did you come to the French zone if
you wanted to talk to some English person?
They were watching
the crossings.
Only the French zone was safe.
I'm home!
Already drinking? Never too
early for a nice glass of wine.
Magnificent.
There was some mail. I
left it on the table. Thank you.
Hey.
What's this about?
We're meeting someone who might be
able to tell you something about Haldane
and his connections in Beirut.
Who?
I don't know. I just
received a message
suggesting we meet.
But I don't know who it's from.
Well, it could be a trap. Yeah,
but not if it's in broad daylight.
It's at the Olivenbaum
so must be...
Hey, have you got
any news on Lubkov?
Yes, he's coming in.
Jesus.
Yes, what happens next could
tell us a lot about everything.
Are you alright?
Yeah, I'm fine. I
better be going.
I'll see you there.
Yeah, see you later.
Ulrike Farber?
I'm Severine Bloch.
I'm a friend of Fielding Scott.
What do we do now?
You stay here.
How long?
Five minutes.
Then go to the church
at the edge of the square.
I'll be waiting in a
car. A blue Opel.
Get in beside me.
What then?
Then we'll get you
back to England.
Is it safe?
Yes, that's him.
Any idea who killed him? No.
That man in the
market, who was he?
He was a contact.
He said he had information
he wanted to share.
Why didn't he
come to your office?
I don't know.
It was his idea to meet
at the flower market.
You know who he was.
No.
We had no chance to talk.
He was a Russian. Really?
An official with the
trade consortium.
That doesn't make any sense.
What do you mean? What would
such a man want to talk to me about?
You tell me.
Maybe it was a mistake.
Maybe he thought I
was someone else.
What is it about you,
Mr. Scott? Sorry?
When you are in Berlin,
people seem to get killed.
It's got nothing to do
with me, I assure you.
Maybe it's a Berlin problem.
Maybe you're right.
Who was the man that was killed?
I don't fucking know.
Does anyone know?
It's not important.
It's a British matter.
Yeah, but logically the man
was killed at the flower market
must've been someone important.
I mean it was a hit in broad daylight.
Maybe. Possibly.
Well, why can't
he be identified?
You know they found the killer?
No. Who was he?
Some piece of shit found
dead in a warehouse near Tegel.
Money scattered around the body.
Obviously paid to do the hit.
And then he was hit himself.
Why would anyone
kill the killer?
Because it's neat.
Because it's tidy.
Investigation seems to
stop when the killer is found,
especially when found dead.
It's a Mafia specialty.
Mafia?
You were in Sicily.
You should know.
The target is killed, then
the killer of the target is killed.
Almost always,
almost immediately.
Mystery over. Case closed.
Yes, but we're in Berlin now.
When were you
with Scott in Sicily?
'44.
He was there before I was.
What was his role again?
He was a commando
attached to the SAS.
Think about it. Sicily. Mafia.
The Mafia ran Sicily after the invasion
in '43. Scott would know the pattern.
Yes, but I hardly think Scott would
have a guy killed in the flower market
and then send someone in to
kill the killer. What's in it for Scott?
Because it has to do
with fucking Beethoven,
as you said, I don't know
what, but that would explain it.
Everything Scott does has
something to do with Beethoven.
Do you think Scott is
some kind of communist?
What? Absolutely not.
Why not? Why are
you so sure, Conrad?
You think he's some
type of double agent?
Doesn't matter.
This whole business makes
one thing absolutely clear,
Fielding Scott is a man we have
to deal with. Can't you see that?
Expose and reveal
were the words he used.
He actually asked me if I
thought you were a communist.
Jesus.
Maybe he meant it
metaphorical sense of the word.
Maybe the moon
is made of cheese.
Yeah, maybe you're right.
The Lubkov killing really spooked
him. I've never seen Dunn so wound up.
If he wants to "expose" me, that's
all proof we need. Don't you see?
Give me a break. You
really think Dunn's a traitor?
You think he's feeding this stuff
to the Russians? I don't buy it.
Yes, I think it's Dunn,
and needs to be dealt with.
My apartment was
bugged, by the way.
Why did Dunn meet Lubkov at
that cinema? That's the key question.
Who would want Lubkov silenced?
Dunn.
Lubkov was running
and ready to talk.
Maybe it has to do with that
photograph he's been searching for.
I can see how it'd be hard to come
to terms with. He's obsessed with it.
And now Lubkov's dead
and he wants to expose me.
Maybe he's worried about what
Lubkov said when I interrogated him.
Maybe he thinks he told
about that photograph.
Rather falls into
place, doesn't it?
Yeah.
Jesus. Dunn really is
a bit paranoid, isn't he?
He sees enemies everywhere.
And I mean, everywhere.
If he wanted to expose me,
why doesn't he
just go to Petrie?
Speak his fears. Tell him what he's
worried about. Have me investigated.
Have me arrested.
I'll tell you why.
Because he wants it to
be a CIA rogue mission.
He's running scared.
Fielding.
Be careful.
Once Dunn has an
idea, it obsesses him.
Don't worry.
I'll be careful.
See you Saturday.
Who's paying for this?
It's on the CIA.
Why can't we meet
in the office, Scott?
Because I don't want
our conversation recorded.
Jesus Christ.
Lubkov's dead. I know.
Have you got any idea of the shit that's
going to come our way from the Russians?
Do you know who killed
him? Of course, I don't.
Are you out of your mind?
Lubkov was going to come in.
He was worried.
Frightened. Of whom?
I don't know.
Kovrin?
You provoked Kovrin.
You snatched Lubkov, you let him go,
and then when he came back, he was killed.
Did you know Torrance Dunn
met Lubkov here in West Berlin?
What?
Are you saying those
two were the source?
I don't know. It's complicated.
A lot of people had a stake
in Lubkov. Me included.
Dunn
and Kovrin.
Makes me wonder. Wonder what?
What did Lubkov know exactly?
What precise information
did Lubkov have?
Why was it so important
that he was terminated?
I don't know.
Haven't a fucking clue.
What happened in Beirut?
Beirut?
Now you've really lost
me. Well, have a little think.
Have a ponder.
It might become clear to you.
One day, Scott.
You and I.
When this black farce is over,
there'll be a reckoning.
Well, I look forward to it.
Madame Bloch?
It's just water.
I said I'd only talk
to Fielding Scott.
I'm sorry. You will
have to talk to me.
Then prove to me that you
don't work for the Russians.
I saw you
at the KGB headquarters.
In my coffee, there was
a red exclamation mark.
In the mug, on the bottom.
The Russians are everywhere.
Prove to me you
don't work for them.
How could you have
seen me at the KGB?
I worked as a German secretary.
For Vasily Lubkov.
You know he was assassinated?
I have a date to
give you. A date?
I'm listening.
Sunday, August 13th. Next month?
Yes.
What's so important about
this date, August 13th.
This particular Sunday? I
will only tell Fielding Scott.
You know I can never get over
how excited I am to see you.
It's astonishing.
It's like the first
time every time.
Thank you.
You're sweet.
Why did you want to see me?
A man came up to me
in a store
and threw water in
my face. Jesus, what?
It was a warning. From Udo Hoff.
Udo Hoff? How can you be sure?
I just know.
Then maybe you should stop.
No. It proves
I'm getting closer.
He knows I'm after him. He's
frightened. Severine, be careful.
You know what he's capable of.
I know.
Don't worry. I'll be careful.
What's wrong?
I'm not supposed to tell you
this, but I'm getting nowhere.
We had a walk-in. A woman.
Codename "Merkur," she says.
Merkur? She gave
us a date, August 13th.
So?
She's not telling us.
She says she will
only talk to you.
She was Lubkov's secretary.
What does she want?
The usual money, a
passport, a new life in France.
In exchange for one date in the
calendar? What could it possibly be?
Russians surround the
city, move their tanks in?
It could be.
Then it could be World
War III, in that case.
Yes, Mr. Greer. We
have your reservation.
We have a very
special table for you.
It's only me. I'm starving.
Welcome to Olivenbaum.
Please follow me.
May I offer you
gentlemen a drink?
A gin and tonic.
I'm fine, thanks.
You alright? Sure, yeah.
Where's Mateas?
Matthias.Matthias.
He's not working today.
Thank you.
Thank you.
What are you thinking?
Food-wise.
Come on, what's really going on?
I know you too well.
What's going on?
I'm being blackmailed.
Oh, fuck!
They have photographs
of me and Matthias.
Shit!
This meal.
This restaurant.
This whole fucking
thing just to get you here.
to Lubkov, because I was trying to
find the man who killed my husband.
His name is Vasily Lubkov.
What's so interesting about him?
I think he's got the answers
to the Beethoven deaths.

Give me a break. You
really think Dunn's a traitor?
You think he's feeding this stuff
to the Russians? I don't buy it.
Yes, I think it's Dunn,
and needs to be dealt with.
My apartment was
bugged, by the way.
Why did Dunn meet Lubkov at
that cinema? That's the key question.
Who would want Lubkov silenced?
Dunn.
Lubkov was running
and ready to talk.
Maybe it has to do with that
photograph he's been searching for.
I can see how it'd be hard to come
to terms with. He's obsessed with it.
And now Lubkov's dead
and he wants to expose me.
Maybe he's worried about what
Lubkov said when I interrogated him.
Maybe he thinks he told
about that photograph.
Rather falls into
place, doesn't it?
Yeah.
Jesus. Dunn really is
a bit paranoid, isn't he?
He sees enemies everywhere.
And I mean, everywhere.
If he wanted to expose me,
why doesn't he
just go to Petrie?
Speak his fears. Tell him what he's
worried about. Have me investigated.
Have me arrested.
I'll tell you why.
Because he wants it to
be a CIA rogue mission.
He's running scared.
Fielding.
Be careful.
Once Dunn has an
idea, it obsesses him.
Don't worry.
I'll be careful.
See you Saturday.
Who's paying for this?
It's on the CIA.
Why can't we meet
in the office, Scott?
Because I don't want
our conversation recorded.
Jesus Christ.
Lubkov's dead. I know.
Have you got any idea of the shit that's
going to come our way from the Russians?
Do you know who killed
him? Of course, I don't.
Are you out of your mind?
Lubkov was going to come in.
He was worried.
Frightened. Of whom?
I don't know.
Kovrin?
You provoked Kovrin.
You snatched Lubkov, you let him go,
and then when he came back, he was killed.
Did you know Torrance Dunn
met Lubkov here in West Berlin?
What?
Are you saying those
two were the source?
I don't know. It's complicated.
A lot of people had a stake
in Lubkov. Me included.
Dunn
and Kovrin.
Makes me wonder. Wonder what?
What did Lubkov know exactly?
What precise information
did Lubkov have?
Why was it so important
that he was terminated?
I don't know.
Haven't a fucking clue.
What happened in Beirut?
Beirut?
Now you've really lost
me. Well, have a little think.
Have a ponder.
It might become clear to you.
One day, Scott.
You and I.
When this black farce is over,
there'll be a reckoning.
Well, I look forward to it.
Madame Bloch?
It's just water.
I said I'd only talk
to Fielding Scott.
I'm sorry. You will
have to talk to me.
Then prove to me that you
don't work for the Russians.
I saw you
at the KGB headquarters.
In my coffee, there was
a red exclamation mark.
In the mug, on the bottom.
The Russians are everywhere.
Prove to me you
don't work for them.
How could you have
seen me at the KGB?
I worked as a German secretary.
For Vasily Lubkov.
You know he was assassinated?
I have a date to
give you. A date?
I'm listening.
Sunday, August 13th. Next month?
Yes.
What's so important about
this date, August 13th.
This particular Sunday? I
will only tell Fielding Scott.
You know I can never get over
how excited I am to see you.
It's astonishing.
It's like the first
time every time.
Thank you.
You're sweet.
Why did you want to see me?
A man came up to me
in a store
and threw water in
my face. Jesus, what?
It was a warning. From Udo Hoff.
Udo Hoff? How can you be sure?
I just know.
Then maybe you should stop.
No. It proves
I'm getting closer.
He knows I'm after him. He's
frightened. Severine, be careful.
You know what he's capable of.
I know.
Don't worry. I'll be careful.
What's wrong?
I'm not supposed to tell you
this, but I'm getting nowhere.
We had a walk-in. A woman.
Codename "Merkur," she says.
Merkur? She gave
us a date, August 13th.
So?
She's not telling us.
She says she will
only talk to you.
She was Lubkov's secretary.
What does she want?
The usual money, a
passport, a new life in France.
In exchange for one date in the
calendar? What could it possibly be?
Russians surround the
city, move their tanks in?
It could be.
Then it could be World
War III, in that case.
Yes, Mr. Greer. We
have your reservation.
We have a very
special table for you.
It's only me. I'm starving.
Welcome to Olivenbaum.
Please follow me.
May I offer you
gentlemen a drink?
A gin and tonic.
I'm fine, thanks.
You alright? Sure, yeah.
Where's Mateas?
Matthias.Matthias.
He's not working today.
Thank you.
Thank you.
What are you thinking?
Food-wise.
Come on, what's really going on?
I know you too well.
What's going on?
I'm being blackmailed.
Oh, fuck!
They have photographs
of me and Matthias.
Shit!
This meal.
This restaurant.
This whole fucking
thing just to get you here.
