Where are your bags?
- Yura, I'm scared.
- We already talked about this.
No, I'm really scared.
Aren't you scared?
Let's talk about this in the car.
We really must rush.
My husband is going to kill me.
He's going to kill us.
Once we're gone, there's nothing,
absolutely nothing that he can do to us.
He's a Colonel in the SVR,
a trained assassin.
For god's sake, you think
he's going to just let us go?
The CIA will protect us. Trust me.
We're going to be safe in United States.
Believe me, we're going
to be in a lot of danger
if we stay here in Russia.
I can't do this, Yura.
Not today.
What? What do you mean "not today"?
I shouldn't even be here right now.

Right.
Please say your name and job title.
Uh, Gretchen Lareau,
Deputy Chief Moscow Station.
Do you understand, Miss Lareau,
that the proceedings of this
chamber are classified secret?
I do.
Miss Lareau, did the two
CIA case officers killed in Russia
earlier this morning report to you?
Yes, they did.
And what were they doing in...
Keykino.
They were supposed to
be meeting an Asset
who had asked for our help
to get him out of Russia.
An Asset?
From the SVR, Russia's
Intelligence Service.
Yuri.
He wanted to defect?
Correct.
And what is Yuri's particular value?
He claims to know the
identity and allegiance
of over 300 Russian agents
in the United States.
- And who recruited him to defect?
- I did.
For how long?
The last 14 months.
- Both: So why...
- I'm sorry.
So why weren't you in
Keykino to meet him?
Because I was back in Langley
for a Divisional Directors meeting.
You scheduled this extraction
while you knew you'd be back in D.C.?
Yuri was familiar with
Pulowski and McFaddyen.
They had his full confidence.
Or so you thought.
Is it possible Yuri set them up?
Miss Lareau.
Anything is possible.
But if he did set them up,
that means that you
recruited a double agent.
Yes. I'm aware. Thank you.
Which means now somebody
has to go find him.

Oh, yeah.

- What?
- The police. You talk to the police?

Yuri. Real name or code name?
Real name.
Who are you? CIA?
- You wish.

What happened in Keykino,
I had nothing to do with that.
Why didn't you show up?
It's complicated.
So boil it down.
Complicated and personal.
We got a tail.

[Speaks Russian]
- FSB.
- They with you?
No. Please. They must not see me.
[Tires squeal]
[Tires squealing, horn honks]
I knew it.
They found out about me.
Now they kill me too.
Found out about what?
That I was trying to defect to CIA.
Two CIA officers were killed.
- Langley says you set them up.
- No, I didn't do that.
I swear on...
If they knew about the two CIA officers
and the meeting place,
- why didn't they know about you?
- I don't know.
But now they do. Look!

I thought you wanted to defect.

Hey! Get your ass back here!
Shooting Russian agents on
Russian soil is an act of war.

- I'm not playing you. I swear.

Zero, this is Romeo.
Moving to the shrug now.
I do want to get out of
Russia, yes, but I can't.
Why not?
Not without my girlfriend.
Your girlfriend?
There was no mention of
a girlfriend to the CIA.
Well, no, because she is the
wife of my superior officer,
Colonel Sergei Kuznikov.
What, you thought you'd just
spring her on the CIA?
She got scared last second
and wouldn't come to Keykino.
[Chuckling]
Anyone buying this crap?
She couldn't come.
Please. It's true.
On Tatjana's...
That's her name: Tatjana.
I swear on her life.
86 the extraction.
Stand by for further instructions.
- What?
- You heard.
We ain't done here yet.
Yuri's having an affair
with Tatjana Kuznikov?
You had no idea.
- No. None.
- Well, maybe she's the problem.
Kuznikov used her to get to Yuri.
Some vodka, a little pillow talk?
Suppose for a minute that neither Yuri
nor Tatjana Kuznikov are responsible
for the Keykino ambush.
Who else knew Yuri's identity?
Me and Pulowski and
McFaddyen, that's it.
So no one else at Moscow
Station or Langley
knew anything at all about
Yuri or the meeting at Keykino?
Not even Sy.
Okay.
Gretchen, I'm gonna need
your help around the clock
as I move my people
through Saint Petersburg.
Of course. Anything you need.
Move your people around
doing exactly what?
What do you know about Kuznikov?
A nasty piece of work.
Backroom bully who
rose through the ranks
- putting the wood to the Chechens.
- Anything else?
Our hands are pretty full right now
with Russian activity in
Syria, Iran, and Ukraine.
Khalid Murvan.
A Chechen activist rumored
to have been kidnapped,
tortured, and killed by
Kuznikov last month.
Where did you get that?
A friend in German intelligence.
[Grunts]
Are you crazy?
You kill FSB officers
in the middle of Saint Petersburg!
You think you can get away with that?
For your hands.
Boss says to get the Colonel's wife.
You speak Chechen?
Wait. No.
Tatjana, you don't
understand. She won't.
Do you speak Chechen: Yes or no?
Yes.

You're gonna teach him a few words.

in a bind in Russia.
Where I was raised, those

- Sir.
- I am the Divisional Director...
- Sit.
[Sighs]
If Gretchen sold out her own officers,
then why not give up Yuri too?
See, that doesn't make any sense,
which means whoever gave up those guys
didn't yet know Yuri's identity.
You just found reams of secret
CIA communiqués in her home.
But they did have access
to movement orders, plans,
and reports of the
officers in Moscow Station.
Seriously?
Someone, say, like
their Divisional Director.
- Little desperate, are we?
- If Gretchen was taking
Russian money to pay
her mother's medical bills,
then why is she still in debt?
And why leave documents like
that on her computer in her desk
when she has a state-of-the-art safe?
- You need to ask her.
- Like you said, I've got
my people in the field,
and time is running out.
I wasn't even involved
in this operation.
- Until...
- Until Kuznikov showed
up at his home at
exactly the right time.
Gretchen waited
until she wasn't the only
suspect. She's smart.
So why isn't she pointing
the finger at you?
Treason is front page stuff, Brant.
It doesn't just end your career.
It ruins your family for generations.
And then there's your son, Robert.
How does Robert live
with that level of shame?
Sit down.
He's a bright boy, Robert.
He's got a bright future.
Unless, of course, this kind
of behavior runs in the family.
But let's give him the
benefit of a doubt for now.
So either I leak your arrest
and you watch the bottom
slowly drop out of Robert's world, or...
What is that?
Natural causes.
You have two minutes to decide.
You can't do this.

Yuri. Real name or code name?
Real name.
Who are you? CIA?
- You wish.
- Please.
What happened in Keykino,
I had nothing to do with that.
Why didn't you show up?
It's complicated.
So boil it down.
Complicated and personal.
We got a tail.
[Engine revs, tires squeal]
[Speaks Russian]
- FSB.
- They with you?
No. Please. They must not see me.
[Tires squeal]
[Tires squealing, horn honks]
I knew it.
They found out about me.
Now they kill me too.
Found out about what?
That I was trying to defect to CIA.
Two CIA officers were killed.
- Langley says you set them up.
- No, I didn't do that.
I swear on...
If they knew about the two CIA officers
and the meeting place,
- why didn't they know about you?
- I don't know.
But now they do. Look!
[Tires squealing, horns honking]
He was about to swear on someone's life.
- Ask him who.
- Sierra, this is Zero. Question.
Can it wait a sec?
Roger.
[Tires squealing]
12 minutes to Foxtrot Oscar.
Roger. 12 minutes. Standing by.
Foxtrot Oscar. What is... what is fox...
- Airplane out of here.
- What... I can't leave Russia.
I thought you wanted to defect.
[Tires squealing]
I got this.
[Gunshots]
Hey! Get your ass back here!
Shooting Russian agents on
Russian soil is an act of war.
- I'm telling you, he's playing us.
- I'm not playing you. I swear.
[Engine revs]
Zero, this is Romeo.
Moving to the shrug now.
I do want to get out of
Russia, yes, but I can't.
Why not?
Not without my girlfriend.
Your girlfriend?
There was no mention of
a girlfriend to the CIA.
Well, no, because she is the
wife of my superior officer,
Colonel Sergei Kuznikov.
What, you thought you'd just
spring her on the CIA?
She got scared last second
and wouldn't come to Keykino.
[Chuckling]
Anyone buying this crap?
She couldn't come.
Please. It's true.
On Tatjana's...
That's her name: Tatjana.
I swear on her life.
86 the extraction.
Stand by for further instructions.
- What?
- You heard.
We ain't done here yet.
Yuri's having an affair
with Tatjana Kuznikov?
You had no idea.
- No. None.
- Well, maybe she's the problem.
Kuznikov used her to get to Yuri.
Some vodka, a little pillow talk?
Suppose for a minute that neither Yuri
nor Tatjana Kuznikov are responsible
for the Keykino ambush.
Who else knew Yuri's identity?
Me and Pulowski and
McFaddyen, that's it.
So no one else at Moscow
Station or Langley
knew anything at all about
Yuri or the meeting at Keykino?
Not even Sy.
Okay.
Gretchen, I'm gonna need
your help around the clock
as I move my people
through Saint Petersburg.
Of course. Anything you need.
Move your people around
doing exactly what?
What do you know about Kuznikov?
A nasty piece of work.
Backroom bully who
rose through the ranks
- putting the wood to the Chechens.
- Anything else?
Our hands are pretty full right now
with Russian activity in
Syria, Iran, and Ukraine.
Khalid Murvan.
A Chechen activist rumored
to have been kidnapped,
tortured, and killed by
Kuznikov last month.
Where did you get that?
A friend in German intelligence.
[Grunts]
Are you crazy?
You kill FSB officers
in the middle of Saint Petersburg!
You think you can get away with that?
For your hands.
Boss says to get the Colonel's wife.
You speak Chechen?
Wait. No.
Tatjana, you don't
understand. She won't.
Do you speak Chechen: Yes or no?
Yes.
- Some.
- Good.
You're gonna teach him a few words.
- Me?
- You.
We're going to need a safe
house to debrief Tatjana.
Preferably one that you
and only you know about.
We all have one of those.
For a rainy day.

First there's the two CIA officers
sold out to the Russians.
Then there's a near miss
at Colonel Kuznikov's.
Then there's the fiasco
at the safe house that you gave us.
You broke into my house

Put me on a polygraph.

Then I want a lawyer.

We're in a hurry too.
So what now?
Maybe you should take a run at her, sir.
Sure, I can do that.
What happened to having her back?
You're the one with folks
in a bind in Russia.
Where I was raised, those
in the field come first.
You're right.
Let's do this.

Your wife's having the baby.

- Excuse me?
- Sir.
- I am the Divisional Director...
- Sit.
[Sighs]
If Gretchen sold out her own officers,
then why not give up Yuri too?
See, that doesn't make any sense,
which means whoever gave up those guys
didn't yet know Yuri's identity.
You just found reams of secret
CIA communiqués in her home.
But they did have access
to movement orders, plans,
and reports of the
officers in Moscow Station.
Seriously?
Someone, say, like
their Divisional Director.
- Little desperate, are we?
- If Gretchen was taking
Russian money to pay
her mother's medical bills,
then why is she still in debt?
And why leave documents like
that on her computer in her desk
when she has a state-of-the-art safe?
- You need to ask her.
- Like you said, I've got
my people in the field,
and time is running out.
I wasn't even involved
in this operation.
- Until...
- Until Kuznikov showed
up at his home at
exactly the right time.
Gretchen waited
until she wasn't the only
suspect. She's smart.
So why isn't she pointing
the finger at you?
Treason is front page stuff, Brant.
It doesn't just end your career.
It ruins your family for generations.
And then there's your son, Robert.
How does Robert live
with that level of shame?
Sit down.
He's a bright boy, Robert.
He's got a bright future.
Unless, of course, this kind
of behavior runs in the family.
But let's give him the
benefit of a doubt for now.
So either I leak your arrest
and you watch the bottom
slowly drop out of Robert's world, or...
What is that?
Natural causes.
You have two minutes to decide.
You can't do this.
