VALERIE: Have you been following Estonia?

ESTHER: We are aware

And do you agree that it's serious?

The level of seriousness depends
on the level of proof.

The unrest is growing, and of
course Russia is involved.

From what I've seen,
it's Article 5 serious.

An attack on Estonia

Last time I checked.

But look at this.

- A hundred Spetsnaz.
- Jesus Christ.

And my shadow. In the flesh.

Sergei Basarov.

This is proof of Russian boots
on the ground.

The Kremlin can say
that it was ex-Spetsnaz,

hired mercenaries...

Yeah, but working for who?

There's a tail they want us to chase.

VALERIE: Was that Sofia Vesik

I wanted you to be fully informed.

Well, then you need to be
completely honest with me.

Scout's honor.

So you're sticking to your story?

The Russian government
has absolutely nothing

to do with what's happening in Estonia?

I assure you they do not.

But it's not to say
that they wouldn't be pleased

if these dominos continues to fall.

Good night, my dear.

Romy's at the movies with a new friend.

Some Pixar flick, dubbed in
German with French subtitles.

I figure maybe she'll come out
of it trilingual.

Cheaper than lessons.

Her new friend is Elvis reincarnated

as a purple unicorn on acid.

Piss off. I'm listening...

Honestly, I'm surprised you were
able to pull yourself away.

It's actually quite nice to
speak to somebody who's not...

CIA?

Well, I'm not.

I'm your friend.

You know, I remember when you

were thrashing around
in a Mudhoney mosh pit

in a torn "Fuck Bush" t-shirt.

I remember that show.

[CLEARS THROAT] Yeah...

You know, I never understood
why you went into the CIA.

It's the last thing I thought
someone like you would ever do.

When 9/11 happened I understood
a little better. But...

Over the years I've seen
this job start to eat you up.

Look, this case is just hitting
a little close to home.

Those photos that you saw this
morning of that burnt corpse

may be a friend of mine.

Oh, God.

And if it is him, then that means

that I may be burying a very good man

that died under my directive.

And if it's not?

Well, then I have to make a decision.

Whether I use my limited
resources to save him,

or to prevent a war.

Jesus, how is that fair?

It's not.

Hey. Hey.

Did you get the photos I sent?
Weapons, the Russian irregulars?

I did.

Well, there's your proof, right?
Boots on the ground?

It's still not definitive enough
to take to the Oval.

Well, Jason, it won't be... until
it's too late.

Henrik was poisoned,
Sofia Vesik was a victim

of a coordinated cyber-attack,
the civil war is a fucking sham.

This is happening. We need to stop it.

You know, they say 9/11
was a failure of imagination.

You don't want to be the man
who could've stopped

a world war and didn't, do you?

All right, Valerie, you made your point.

I'll send somebody.

[COMPUTER BEEPS]

[SIGHS]

If she's right, there's no good outcome.

We back our promise to NATO,
we'll be stuck in some

bloody intractable land war.

Maybe even nuclear.

So... who the fuck do we send
to that shit show?

It might be a good idea
to go outside the Company.

Well, we'll need somebody
who's familiar with the CIA,

who has the administration's ear,

who knows diplomacy...

And someone who will wear it

if it all goes to hell with the Russians?

Yeah.

Thank God.

So, who is it?

No idea.

Guy had shrapnel wounds
and a reconstructed knee

with a ceramic made only in Russia.

These prosthetics are not cheap.

This guy was taken care of.

Spetsnaz.

Most likely.

So, where the fuck is Daniel?

Well, if they really killed him,
they would've left him there.

It makes sense they'd take him alive.

100%. It's bargaining power.

There's something else.

It might not be the Russian government.

Weapons don't follow the tradition army

or state sponsors.

It could be one of the oligarchs.

They're certainly
in a position to finance

an operation like that.

Well, if that's the case,
then I'm assuming

that this oligarch has the tacit
approval of the Kremlin.

Kolya hinted as much.

Independent players
can be just as deadly.

- Look at bin Laden.
- Right.

So it's a contest...

who can bring the biggest
head on a stick.

Well, the Baltics would be
a very, very big head.

If they succeed,
they win the Kremlin's favor.

And if they fail, Moscow gets to pretend

that they never even knew
anything was happening.

It's a win-win for him.

Yeah, but there must be dozens
of billionaire

oligarchs out there.

Wha... Where do we start?
How do we narrow?

Follow the weapons.
These guys had everything.

They had Belgian FN SCAR,
Israeli Galil ACE,

CNPMIEC HN-6 from China.

There's only one guy
who sells all these models,

one-stop shopping.

Birdman.

If anyone anyone knows
who the players are in Estonia,

it's this guy.

He lives in Vienna.

Former weapons inspector.

Turned around and started selling.

He's a fucking piece of work, man.

I shutter to think what
that means coming from you.

It means you're both on
the next flight to Vienna.

Find Birdman. Get him to talk.

We're gonna stop this invasion,
but we're gonna

find Daniel, first.
That is our number-one priority.

Planting Daniel's ID on the body,

that kept us running around
and asking questions,

but did it really buy
them that much time?

No, they bought all the time they needed.

The attack is already on, isn't it?
