X Company (2015–2017): Season 3, Episode 6 - Supply and Demand - full transcript

Previously on x company...
Sometimes,

Your friend is a mole. You might
have to kill someone you know.

The rendezvous is set.
Your contacts are expecting you.

We'll do you proud, sir.
Sending them into the field?

I made my decision. Race and
resettlement, that's us.

Frau bauer, it means a great
deal to me that you're here.

Heidi says that the whole town
is understaffed.

The train station?

I might be able
to track oil shipments.

You're gonna need some polish
papers. I'll see what I can find.

At the office.
Alec, this is my daughter...



Irena. Pleased to meet you.

Show alec around, will you?
When can you start?

Now. Perfect.

There are allied spies.

Among the polish resistance.
Two men in the forest.

And someone working among us.
This is now your top.

Priority. I need to know
if they're targeting marigold.

We have a mole.

Sir? Peter and david
made their check-in.

They're on track to rendezvous
with aurora's team later today.

Good.

Krystina, let's just
clear the air here...

And this needs your signature.

A transfer request.
I am a proficient radio.



Operator. I speak fluent polish.
David is a promising.

Agent, but he failed
his final field test.

Krystina... which is why,

In my professional opinion,
he was not ready to be deployed.

I choose agents for missions
based on a variety of factors,

Sergeant. It's not always
about performance at the camp.

Which means
you didn't trust my judgment.

And if you don't trust my
judgment, what am I doing here?

So, if you'll sign... sergeant.

I'm sorry, it's urgent.

Our contact at the reichsmuseum,

He was questioned
by german officials.

This morning about helene bauer.

The nazis are digging
into aurora's cover.

Good morning. Marlene, lotte.

I need to speak to you, helene.

Is everything all right?
Actually, no.

Something troubling
has come to my attention.

And, to be honest,
I feel betrayed.

We've discovered
the polish resistance.

Have a source in our office.

Do they know who?

We've been digging
into every worker.

With a fine-tooth comb.
I wanted to be certain.

I spoke to your old boss.

At the reichsmuseum
just this morning.

Really?

I don't know how you put up
with that man.

He bored me to death.

In one phone call. He didn't.

Bring up his philosophy
of aesthetics, did he?

Your background check
was clear. I knew it would be.

Of course. And the others?
All clear.

The germans anyway.

No, I knew all along.

Who the leak was. I should have.

I was trying to be efficient,

Use the available labour source.

It was only ever meant
to be a temporary solution,

But... The jewish workers?

Duplicity is in their nature.
They cannot be trusted.

They'll be contained in their
basement cells for questioning.

Come on! Let's go! No!

What's going on?
You, come with me!

Move!

They just transmitted.

They're gonna be at
the rendezvous in a few hours.

Green agents on a mission
like this? Makes you.

Wonder what he's thinking.
We were all new once.

Yeah, we weren't
sabotaging oil refineries.

Our first time out the nest.
No, you blew up a bridge.

Doesn't matter much if
we don't find the refineries,

Does it? Our asset
hasn't been much help.

Faber's job is handling
resistance. He can't ask.

Too many questions without
schmidt getting suspicious.

Can't or won't?
It's gonna take time.

Schmidt doesn't trust him yet.
Neither do i.

Doesn't stop us putting
our lives in his hands, does it?

What about the train station?
Have you traced oil shipments?

They're covering their tracks, using
code words for all the cargo.

How'd you know that? They're shipping
"grain" when the harvest isn't in.

Two trains were listed
as carrying "iron,".

But there's no way those engines
could pull the load.

If they're using codes,
there has to be a key.

I've searched the office.
The safe?

Picked it last night. Nothing.

Who uses the codes?
Karl, the manager.

He carries a notebook,

Never lets it out of his sight,

But he takes it home at night.

That sounds like you need
to go home with him too.

Karl the manager's
got a daughter, right?

Yeah.

What would tom do?

You startled me. Ha!

I didn't hear you there, alec.

I was hoping you could
remind me how to process this.

It's confusing,
all these numbers and codes.

You take the warehouse inventory.

And cross-check the box codes
against the manifest.

But you already knew that.

My father is very impressed.

At how quickly
you've picked it up.

He's never met someone
who can remember.

More about a particular engine
than he can.

I've always liked trains.
Him too.

He's like a little boy.

He has a model
in his study at home.

So...

I have to wonder,

Why would you pretend
to need my help now?

You look very pretty
in that dress.

Matches your eyes.

Thank you.

But my eyes are blue.

They're teal, like the buttons.

I'm sorry, I'm not
very good at this.

Would you like to join
my family for lunch.

After church tomorrow, alec?

What are your plans for the day?

I should unpack,
but I just can't.

I've dragged the same set of
dishes across three countries.

Shopping then for a new set?

I've joined the women's league.

I want to do something
I can feel good about.

My wedding ring.
How do you have this?

When I escaped,
I couldn't leave it behind.

I thought you would
want it back.

Unless there are too many bad
memories from when it was taken?

Do you want a new one?
You know what I want.

Your plan back in paris, franz.
We were going.

To run away to spain,
to get away from everything.

We don't have a choice.
You know this.

Why are you risking so much?
I don't understand it.

Who was responsible for taking
the minutes at the staff meeting.

This morning? Speak up.

It's bad enough having
to pick up your slack.

These are practically
unreadable.

How am I supposed to type this?

You, come here.

Do you read shorthand?

No? Please.

Here's some food.

There's enough to share,
but we need to talk.

I know why you are here.
Jana, please.

There's a train monday morning.

I filed the transport
memorandum myself.

I didn't realize at the time;
It's going to the camps.

We will be on it,

Whether I say something or not.

Don't worry.

I'll come back for you.

I'll get you out, all of you.

I promise.

Ahem! Thank you.

Obergruppenfuhrer. Was I
expecting you this morning?

I'm waiting for my car's refuel.

I was hoping for an update
on your progress.

Finding the allied spies
in pruszko.

Intelligence is
precision work. It takes time.

My operation
is in a delicate phase.

I need to know
if the spies are just here.

To rabble-rouse
with the ruffians.

In the woods
or if they know about marigold.

I've secured the office
against an internal leak,

But we're still gathering
intelligence on the resistance.

If they're working with spies,
I'll find them.

I imagine
you are highly motivated.

It's healing well.
Sabine will be pleased.

I could protect marigold
better if I knew what it was,

Obergruppenfuhrer.
I have the rsd for protection.

The fuhrer's guard doesn't
normally take assignments.

Outside of his protection.
They do for an operation.

This important. All I need
from you is to find out.

What the allies know
about marigold,

If anything.

How is sabine?

She's well. Keeping busy?

She's become involved
with the women's league.

Down the hall. It will be good
for her to make some friends.

Her happiness
is my first concern.

A woman is most content
with a family.

To care for, franz.

Attention all passengers.
This is the final call.

For the train departing
from warsaw, from track 2.

Can I help you, madam?
I hope so.

I need to transport
several packages.

From the town hall.
I know it's last minute,

But it has to be tomorrow.

It's quite urgent.

There's a 1:30.

Train west, out of town.

Very few passengers;
The germans haven't commandeered.

Any space for soldiers.

I'm sure there's room
for some extra cargo.

Wonderful!

Can someone come
and pick them up?

I'm afraid
I'm not here tomorrow.

I don't think
I can lift them myself.

Irena,

Do you have
any cargo packing slips?

I've run out.
I'll get some from the back.

I'll leave the door
to car 20 unlocked,

But I need you
to take this to faber.

Getting any closer
to the marigold refinery?

Not yet. But I am going.

To the station manager's house
tomorrow to see if I can.

How? I have a date.

Um... here you go.

I'm sure I can take care
of the packages myself.

It's fine. He's so kind to help.

Yes, he's very thoughtful.

Be right there.

3 o'clock bus is always late.

The 4 o'clock
never comes at all.

Whitby sends her regards.
I thought you had.

Another one with you.
He's holed up with supplies.

Let's collect him
and get on with it then.

Gladly. Wasn't exactly
a first-class ticket.

Getting here.

Buckle up, mate.

You've been briefed
on the mission, yeah?

Some. So, what's it like?

You know, you were the first
agents the camp sent into france.

Is it true you blew up a tank at dieppe?
No, no, no. It was two.

And they almost stole
enigma machine.

And alfred's got esp.

Like he's a human
lie detector or something?

Sorry, fellas;
That's classified.

Yeah, it wouldn't be
classified if it wasn't true.

Never trust any intel
that you can't verify yourself.

Unless your gut's
screaming at you.

Always trust your gut.

My gut says
the rumours are true.

Yeah.

So, we brought supplies for
the mission. Explosives, fuses...

And this. It's lighter
with improved range.

To replace your old one.

There's nothing wrong
with the old one.

Better you brought
something useful like scotch.

Well, the colonel did
send something. Yeah.

Here you go.

It's in bloody polish.
No. Open it.

They're from your niece.

She sent them
to your old unit in england,

And they forwarded
them to camp x.

That would have
been nice with scotch.

Germans are arriving every day
to enjoy the lebensraum.

And with our help,

They have everything
they need to start fresh.

So finely sewn.

All of these were donated?

There is much wealth
to be had in poland.

Maybe you'll find
something for yourself.

A nice dress to wear out on
the town with the brigadefuhrer?

Out on the town in pruszko?

There's a lot of us
expatriates here.

My calendar was never
this full in munich.

You shouldn't be
on your feet, derica.

Sure, I should.
I have to set a good example.

For this little sweetheart.

Do you have any children,
frau faber?

No.

Is this ready to go downstairs?
Yes.

Sabine. I heard
you were working here.

With the ladies.
I thought you might be thirsty.

Or more likely
you need something.

I need you to leave a laundry cart
by the basement door when you leave.

No. I don't need to know.

What you're up to
to know it's dangerous.

I promise, there's no risk...
Unless I get caught.

Your plans never work out
for franz and me, do they?

Remember when we took
the train together,

Just the two of us?

You wanted to know
the truth, right?

But we'll never know, will we?

Because you never tell
the truth. If you'll excuse me,

I prefer to help in a way that won't
endanger myself or my husband.

I can't remember the last time

I ate such a good meal.

Between my wife and my daughter,

Even the german rations
are no match for this.

Papa!

You're right, my dear.

We are very lucky.

Even if it means letting
the germans run my trains.

The game, irena! You promised!

And let me guess.
Which game would milek like?

The memory game!
Aaah, memory game!

It is tradition on sundays. But
don't worry, you'll catch on quick.

Good. So, I will go.

And get the magic tray.

Hahaha!

Here it is.

So...

You get to see the tray.

Here. It has.

Lots of different things on it.

Right. And then, I add.

One new thing.

Don't look!

And whoever identifies.

What it is wins.

Ready? Ready.

VoilÃ!

Was it the playing card?

No!

After we finally catch
the guy in the church,

Peter has to pretend.

To be a german sympathizer
and spring the bastard.

I love a german on his heels.

Well, he wasn't for long.

Are all new agents so confident?

Yeah, he got what he deserved.

No.

On our first mission,
our youngest,

Harry...

He was so nervous he dropped
his bloody gear off a bridge.

The damn thing almost
didn't get blown.

From an admirer?

It's from my niece,

Maggie. Mags.

It's from northern england.

She's there with the rest
of the orphans for safety.

During the bombings.

She likes to press them
in letters.

She's an orphan? Yeah.

I'm all she has now.

And how is life at home?

Umm,

The usual.

School, complaining
about chores,

Wondering when I'm coming home.

Her life's still so normal.

Is it?

She lost her family, her home.

But she's safe.

She knows what tomorrow
looks like.

Over here,

Everything's upside-down.

I'm grateful for mags,

But it doesn't seem fair.

My family used to own
a candy shop in nadzieja.

The building's been empty
ever since the night.

The nazis took my parents away.

But I'm going to open
that candy store again.

One day, my children.

Will only have school and chores.

To complain about too.

Would you read to me?

"Dear uncle neil,

"today, we started
learning maths.

"I don't like it much,

"but afterwards,
we got to catch tadpoles.

So we can watch them grow."

I'm glad you don't mind
the needlework.

Makes me cross-eyed.

I forgot how much I liked it.

I have to get home
to get sunday dinner started.

Derica is going to give us a lift
to the market. Do you want to come?

I only have,
these two dresses left.

See you tomorrow then.

Am I losing again?

No. Alec is losing.
But this is his chance.

To redeem himself. Ready?

I'm ready.

Let's see. Don't look.
Don't look.

And voilÃ!

Alec?

I think I'll leave it
to the champions.

Where is your...? Down the hall.

Alec?

What are you doing
in my father's study?

You mentioned his model train.

He doesn't use it much anymore.

I think it reminds him.

Too much of what life
was like before.

My family and I,

We must seem.

Ordinary to you.

I get the impression you are
used to a more exciting life.

You and your family.

Are very lucky, irena.

You lost someone, didn't you?

I can see it sometimes
in your eyes.

And I am glad

I could give you
a moment of ordinary.

Maybe, sometime,

We could share another?

I'd like that.

So clumsy.

Thank you.

I got your message. We need to keep
this quick. You brought the map?

The code word for oil
is "wood by-products."

I know which trains
are carrying it.

Based on their routes, there are two
possible locations that could be refineries.

Here, in czarna,

And one here... in ryba?

Ryba hasn't shipped
oil recently.

Odds are operation marigold
must be czarna.

I don't think so.

You got something from schmidt?

No, he's paranoid.
But he's not as good.

At covering his tracks
as he thinks he is.

His personal security detail
takes him in a different car.

Each day, but he forgets
about the vehicle logs.

Based on mileage and gasoline,

He's going about 50km
round trip.

So it has to be ryba.

That must be marigold.

For sinclair?

It needs to be today.

Frau bauer?
Herr obergruppenfuhrer.

You startled me.

What are you doing here
on a sunday?

You probably heard,
our secretarial pool is...

Indisposed.

So much work to be done.

And since I don't know
a soul in pruszko yet,

I didn't have any plans.

And I thought I was
the only one working.

What a pleasant surprise
to have company.

We have the go-ahead.

To scout ryba this afternoon.
I'll tell the rookies.

David and peter
are going to czarna.

Why? To sabotage it.

By themselves? The lads
haven't been in poland a day.

It's what we train for.
I'll go with them to make sure.

They don't get confused,
blow up a sewage plant.

Sinclair wants you and me
on marigold. It's the priority.

You'll be in and out under the radar. Janowski
can cover you. These are sinclair's orders.

They're at more risk
than doing a "reckie."

Sinclair isn't in the field;
He doesn't see what we see.

I'm going with them.

Ladies, come on. Time to move.

Chop, chop.

Not bad.
It's not our first dance.

It is on this stage.

The place is pretty
jumping for a sunday.

Yeah, the boche need oil badly.

Let's go.

This is a refinery?

Not anymore.

You sure this is the place?

Schmidt's been coming every day.

They don't look
like regular guards.

Schmidt's men are rsd,

Hitler's private security.

This is the place.

It's not enough to destroy.

The reserve. We need
to stop them making more.

These blow,
the oil ignites. Got it?

The timers give us
three minutes, more or less.

"More or less"? Go ahead,

I'll do it.

Go on! Go!

I've explained this before!
The quality of the coal.

Is immaterial for this test. Do
you know how far behind we are?

Get gruber's help.
Out. Gruber was freed.

Keppler! Yes, yes. Keppler, yes.

He knows what he's doing.

Something to soften the blow.

Of working on our day off.

I must admit that I,

Was a bit distracted
before you arrived.

Nothing to be
concerned about, I hope?

There is always something.

Spending time with my daughter,
worrying as fathers do.

It's been a difficult year for her.
I must stop myself.

From trying to fix
everything at once.

It's hard not being able.

To keep someone you love
in your pocket.

Sometimes, maybe you have
to push them away...

Let them stand on their own.

To make them stronger.

If only it were.

As simple as tinkering
with octane levels.

Or as enjoyable.

Helene...

Yes?

I'm hosting a party.

At my country home.
Sabine will be there, of course.

And I would be very pleased
if you could.

Come as well.

I wouldn't miss it.

Herr obergruppenfuhrer!

There's been an explosion
at the czarna refinery.

I'm sorry, I must handle
this matter personally.

Of course.

Let's go! Move! Move!

Get them out!
Evacuation protocol!

Dismantle the whole thing!

It's crucial we finish!

We must follow protocol!
Quickly, please!

He's behind as it is.

It's ridiculous.

Operation marigold
isn't about a refinery.

It's about him.

In and out, petey.

Stop! Halt! You, on your feet!

Get up! Let's go!

Take them alive for questioning.

Go! Go! Move it!

Drop your weapon!

Go! Now!

We've got to go now!

Frau bauer?
You're working today?

Yes. A few
unforgiving deadlines.

I had a question
for one of them.

They are gone.

Is that for me?

There's a fresh pot upstairs.
You can help yourself.

Faber had the shot. He could
have taken me in just as easy.

This isn't your fault.

Can't leave peter and david.

Sir! David and peter have been
captured at the czarna refinery.

Alfred and neil are proposing
we contact faber...

Stand down. Sir?

Order them to stand down.
They'll be interrogated.

They've been trained for it. Sir, we have a
man on the inside now. If there's a chance,

We have... stand down, sergeant.

I intercepted their radio
transmissions. When I discovered.

Their sabotage plans,
I followed them to the refinery.

And caught them mid-act.

And how is this progressing?

Nothing yet,
herr obergruppenfuhrer.

Your job is only
half done, franz.

I need to know what they know,

And what they were here for.
Get them up.

It's time for a more
direct approach.

Get out!

You've proven you can take
a beating; There's no need.

To waste any more time.
This man, your friend;

Talk or he dies.

Pain is easy,

Getting wounded is easy,

But pulling the trigger
on someone close to you,

One of your own?

Sometimes, you have
to kill someone you know.

Have to.

We had two orders... no!

First was destroy as many.

Refineries in poland.
Look at me!

And then head north to set up
support networks and posts.

Where?

Along the baltic sea.

Why there?

Preparations
for an allied landing.

In norway.

They haven't moved them. That
means there's still a chance.

I can get you at least 10 men.
We'll go at dusk.

They won't be expecting us
to come back so soon.

Stand down. What?

Orders from camp x. Stand down.

That can't be right.

We're supposed
to just let them die?!

It's sinclair's orders.

Impressive.

Watching you work.

It's a load off my mind.

The allies have no idea.

No, no, no, no, no!
Please don't!

Thank you, franz.

Sir, I did my duty.

As a soldier,
but as a person, as a human,

I can't believe you refused
to even try to save.

Those agents. You know exactly
what will happen to those boys.

And I won't risk more men
dying trying to save them.

That would have been me
if you hadn't held me back!

You knew.

You refused to send me.

To poland because you knew
they were going to die.

Your orders to separate

Peter and david from the others?

You knew they would be captured.
Yes.

The germans found out
there were two allied spies.

Faber had to show due diligence
and I had to protect.

Aurora's team.
You sent them to die.

Faber and I had to sacrifice.

Two discard agents... "discard"?!

They were people, sir!

Do you think.

That I don't know that?

I thought.

That if I didn't
send you into the field,

You wouldn't die.
If I kept you close,

I could keep you safe.

But that is not
my decision to make.

You signed the transfer request.

Transfer if you need to,
krystina, I understand.

Or you can stay,

Take the next flight
into the field. I won't...

I won't hold you back.

The intelligence
has been sent to berlin.

It lines up with the whispering.

They've been hearing
from oslo, bergen.

When the allies make their move,

Our u-boats will be waiting.

What about the damage
to your refinery?

A month's worth of repair.

The important thing was
protecting operation marigold.

How am I to do that
without knowing.

What marigold is,
herr obergruppenfuhrer?

Yesterday, I had to follow
the spies to their plan.

Professor harald voigt.
An engineer.

He is working.

On a formula to increase
the production of synthetic oil.

I thought it wasn't viable.
Too expensive.

Not with voigt's process.
All he needs is coal,

Which germany has in abundance.

We won't have to waste resources.

Fighting for oil
on foreign lands.

It will be cheap and plentiful,
right here in the reich.

That's outstanding news,
herr obergruppenfuhrer.

I now understand the level of your
precautions. Voigt is very close.

He works almost
in complete solitude.

The few colleagues he entrusts.

Only know a fragment
of the full picture,

And no copies exist
on paper of his work.

That sounds foolproof.

Our tanks, our planes,

They're dying of thirst.

Full conversion to synthetic oil
by winter changes everything.

It is our most certain step
towards victory.

Here we are.
I have them here. So this is...

What's all the excitement? We are moving
forward with our germanization campaign.

I wanted to wait until our
security issue was dealt with.

You found the leak, then?

I questioned the jews.

They were uncommunicative.

But I'm confident the problem
has been dealt with.

I had them executed
yesterday afternoon.

Don't worry.

We won't be
short-staffed for long.

Plenty of good german workers
arrive soon.

And just in time.

I had to wait ages.

To get approval from goetschl
for my campaign.

Ego the size of a barn,

Sense of a mule.
But protocol is protocol.

That must have been
so frustrating.

To feel so powerless.
You have no idea.

But finally,
we can begin tomorrow.

There are several towns
to be resettled.

Which ones?

Only goetschl
and myself can know.

I find t's best to keep
these operations quick.

And quiet.
First, we pre-categorize.

The current occupants
of the town.

Anyone with nordic
or phalian traits.

Can be germanized
and may remain.

The soldiers then come in
to clean out the rest.

"Clean"?

Like I said,

It's best to resolve
these things quickly.

I need to talk to you.

Not now. These were hidden.

In a dress I was repairing.
There were bullet holes.

This is what you were talking
about the other day, wasn't it?

I joined the women's
league to help.

I thought I was helping,
but it's everywhere, isn't it?

Even in the needlework.
You wanted the truth?

This is the truth.
I want to help.

With your plan, whatever it was,
with the laundry cart.

It's too late. They're dead.

I wasn't sure you'd come.

Schmidt knew of two allied spies
here working with resistance. How?

Stroik. I had to convince him.

The spies had been dealt with.
For your safety and mine.

How could that be the only way?!
Ask your colonel.

He fed them false information,
knowing they would be captured,

To reassure schmidt
there was no threat.

The coded messages
I sent for you?

This is what you two
were planning?

Who is professor voigt?
I saw him in the lab at ryba.

He's a chemical engineer.

Operation marigold
is his initiative.

He's going to flood germany
with synthetic oil.

And win the war by springtime,
thanks to a formula in his head.

That is shared with no one.
So, if something happened.

To voigt... It's not that easy.

After yesterday, schmidt moved
him to a secure location.

He trusts me now,
but not with that information.

He's the only one
who knows where the man is.

Will you sit with me?

I was wrong. I see now.

Why you do this,
even if it's not safe.

I want to help too.

So voigt's the target.

And the only way to find him
is through schmidt.

He invited me
to a party tomorrow.

A date? Whatever it takes.

"Whatever it takes."

Sinclair just sent
two men to their death,

And still, "whatever it takes"?
He sacrificed them to save us.

It wasn't about us;
It was about the mission!

This time, david
and peter had to die.

What's to say next time
it won't be one of us?

This is the job. This is what we
signed up for... no, not like that!

Not to go out without
even a fighting chance!

How did faber even reach.

Sinclair to set it up
without us knowing?

By radio.

They have their own code.
Sinclair asked me before he left.

To pass messages. Jesus!

And you didn't tell us? I had no
idea what they were planning.

Because of a code? You couldn't use
your giant brain to crack it?!

It wasn't for me to know!
Because we don't need to know.

When other people are deciding
whether we live or die?!

Let him go.

Something's come up.

We need a battle plan.

The nazis are cleaning out
a village tomorrow.
