Can I help you with that?

Thanks.

[Harper]
Morgan Bote gave me your number.

Are you good at this?

[Julian]
Yes.

I know what I'm doing.

[Zoe]
A Russian named Pavlovich

ordered Morgan Bote's murder

to protect a business deal
of his in Afghanistan.

He also ordered

mercenaries to Afghanistan
to protect that deal.

Shit. Shit, shit.

[Zoe]
Who was his other target?

The Dixons.

- Marcia and Henry.
- Why?

[Chase]
Hamzad's lawyer,

she wanted
to tell you something,

something she was afraid
to say over the phone.

- Maybe she knows.
- Then we're going to London.

Because fuck him.

When I had crutches

- You helped me onto the bus.
- I did. [chuckles]

Was wondering if I was ever
gonna run into you again.

Is this your way home from work?

No, no, no, it's not.

Got you.

I... It was.

- But I quit my job.
- Oh, congratulations.

Did I just say
"Congratulations"?

It's okay.

[laughs]
Let me try that again.

So, you quit your job.

What a wide variety of
experiences that might involve.

How are you feeling about this?

Seems like someone else
might want to quit their job.

Can you tell?

I couldn't hear him back then.

And now...

Morgan talked to me
about it a little.

- Yeah, what'd he say?
- He said that

Pavlovich is connected somehow

to this deal
for Hamzad's mineral deposit.

[Chase muttering]

We don't know how.

Nina Kruger, Hamzad's lawyer,

knows something about it,

and we have to figure out

That's what you have

What we should talk about

He said there were
three kinds of lawyers.

The kind that would do
anything for a client,

and the kind that would do
anything to be a client,

and that I should figure out
which one she is, quickly.

What was the third?

He said that only an idiot
would accept that there's only

two kinds of anything
in this world,

even if we can't imagine
the third yet.

Oh, yeah, right.

What else did he say?

He said all tradecraft is waged

wielding two weapons in concert.

Mm.

See, in your left hand
you have your empathy, and...

- Uh-huh.
- ...I told him that sounded awful familiar.

He may have been an asshole,
but that asshole

understood the game better
than anyone I ever knew.

- He taught me well.
- It's a scary idea.

This weapon
that I've been given.

In order to wield it,
you have to be okay

never trusting anybody
ever again,

never getting close
to anybody ever again.

Ah, I didn't say that exactly.

No, I did.

Oh.

I see you think

that if we get close again,
I might be ruthless with you?

Maybe.

[Kruger over recording]
Hello, Zoe.

This is, uh, all so unfamiliar.

I wish I knew how to start.

I have some
very troubling information.

I'm trusting you to enlist

the help of Mr. Bote
to address it

and to persuade him
to provide me with protection,

of which I believe
I am in most urgent need.

A man named Suleyman Pavlovich

has used his mercenary army
to seize control

of an important mineral deposit
in the Panjshir.

In the process,
his men were ordered

to murder the Hamzad family.

This much, I believe you know.

Now let me tell you
what hardly anybody knows.

The Meshbahar deposit
is very large,

but there are others
around the world.

Unfortunately, most are
located in places

that are not friendly
to my government or yours.

I have learned that
a number of those parties

are engaged in a secret plan

to organize themselves.

A cartel...

conceived to control access

to the world's markets
of rare earth metals.

If successful,

it would constitute a weapon

capable of bringing any
Western economy to its knees.

Or all of them.

Pavlovich's membership
to this cartel

promises to be
incredibly lucrative,

but it is hanging on
by a thread.

Threatened...

by you.

By the two of you.

Henry and Marcia Dixon possess

both a stake in his firm
and past ties to the CIA.

The cartel have begun to doubt

his trustworthiness
because of this.

He will do anything

to eliminate any trace
of the connection.

You and me.

Please...

...help me.

[computer chimes]

So, what do we do?

We separate.

- No.
- Yeah. No choice.

We need to put you
someplace safe.

You're gonna go to the police.

We're gonna call Harold.
He can help.

I thought we were past this.

- Zoe...
- You running off

- and jumping off cliffs to protect me...
- Zoe...

...as if that
is something that I wanted.

There's an antidote
to whatever I walked into,

but they've got it.

My only chance

to avoid what happened to her
is to let 'em take me.

I will make it back.

You get anywhere near Pavlovich,

you are not gonna be thinking
about anything

but killing Pavlovich.

I'll make it back.

I don't believe you.

I need you to.

Zoe...

...I need you to.

And then maybe you just
don't like the idea

of someone taking a shot
at the old man

and getting away with it,

and you'd like to be the one

to do something about it.

I thought maybe
he sent it by mistake.

I mean, the man was really old.

This wasn't a mistake.
