We are in Paris. Don't be fooled.

It's not the same Paris some of us knew

when we operated here years ago.

If you get caught,

you'll go to prison.

We're going to need more help

gathering intelligence, from Arab sources.

They're all protected in hiding in Lebanon.

Abu-Daoud.

We should have gone with the team

I'm preparing in Jordan. I'm preparing them!

Calm down!

How about the money?

Can you help us trace it?

Right now, if it's not Vietnam,

nobody in the Nixon administration gives a damn.

You think they know about

the meeting with the pope in Rome?

Get down!

The Soviet missiles will be handed over to you.

They almost killed our prime minister.

We need to end this. Take down the big guys.

I'll get the Americans to help us.

I'll give them the missiles.

Soviet technology for Salame.

Jordan.

It used to be our home,

our base.

But now, we just want to fight it.

Two years ago, we Palestinians

rebelled against the king of Jordan.

We lost.

Many died.

It was September 1970.

Black September.

Now, we want revenge.

Stay calm, okay?

Greetings.

And to you.

IDs, please.

But in this world, if you're careless--

There you go.

the past can kill you.

What are you doing in these parts of Jordan?

A trip with my wife.

Have you got four kids?

Yes.

- It says here you are nineteen. - Me?

I am nineteen.

And you've got four kids?

God has blessed us.

What are their names?

Jamal... Abdhalla...

Get out of the car.

Get out of the car!

- Sure, Sir. - Hurry!

Gun!

- Wait, friends! - Open the trunk.

Guns!

♪ The devil will catch you in anyway ♪

♪ The devil will seek you everywhere ♪

Kind of heavy.

Just don't activate them here.

From Italy?

Maybe.

We haven't seen them used in Vietnam yet.

Why?

Maybe the Russians are afraid

the Chinese will copy their technology.

When can our guys take a look at them?

Soon.

What do you have for me?

Al-Kubaissi.

University professor with contacts in France.

That's his cover, anyway.

We found out he was behind the car bombing attempt

at JFK Airport several months ago.

We caught it before they could activate it.

They were planning to kill Golda when she was in the U.S.

We've heard rumors about him.

He is working with Black September now.

From our investigation,

we suspect that they're planning

to put explosives inside a ship.

He's replacing Mashar in Paris.

They quickly replace them.

That's why we're focusing on their main leaders in Beirut.

You want to get to them?

Yes.

I'll see what I can do.

I know who you are. Mohammad Oudeh.

Abu-Daoud of the PLO and Black September.

Remember that we beat you?

How two years ago we crushed your gangs?

You call that period Black September,

but to us it's White September.

Weren't you wounded here?

Does it still hurt?

Your leg?

It's not true what they say about me.

I don't enjoy using torture.

Only in special cases,

like yours.

Captain Rashid...

I know who you are.

Good.

I know, and you know,

that eventually you will tell me everything.

Abu-Iyad, do you see him?

Yes, I see him.

Don't stop here.

Go around the corner. I'll get in from the back.

Rashid has him.

Daoud is being transported to prison in Amman.

Fuck!

They will torture him, you know.

I know.

We have to get him out of there. He knows all our plans.

My sources tell me they're planning a show trial.

On television.

Fucking Jordanians! They'll kill him!

He's an idiot. Always was.

What?

I know he's your friend,

but he screwed up.

Abu-Youssef, we are all brothers here,

and we sent him to Jordan.

Maybe he's a good buddy to go out drinking with,

but not to command secret operations.

I'm telling you they're going to kill him!

- Get it? - Sit, Salame, sit. Sit.

Daoud could reveal that Black September

is really the PLO and Arafat.

Connect us all to Munich.

He knows about all our funding and where it goes.

Fuck this shit.

Everything's falling apart, don't you get it?

They got our men in Italy and they got our man in Jordan.

We have to do something!

Like what?

I'm going to plan an operation to get Abu-Daoud out!

- Abu-Iyad... - Bastards.

Abu-Iyad, we are distracted from what's important,

the operations against Israel.

I have Al-Kubaissi working on getting us

the explosives for Haifa you asked for.

What more do you want?

Jordan is in the past. It's dead for us.

It's dead for you, maybe.

You weren't there.

The past matters, Abu-Youssef.

It matters.

That's what all the fuss is about?

Cappuccinos?

We could've had coffee at home.

It's your daughter's birthday.

Where is she? She'll be late to the show.

Zvika, you can take a break, you know.

It's not like we go out all the time

like the rest of the generals I read about in the newspapers.

It's wrong of them, too.

Where is Ruthie?

She's dropping off her dress at the seamstress.

It's coming from the street? What's going on?

Hang on.

You heard anything?

There was a terror attack.

Police and ambulances are on their way to Herzel Street,

the site of the explosion.

Where is this seamstress located?

Not far from there.

From initial reports it seems

there is one dead and two wounded.

It's her birthday, Zvika.

- Rina, it will be fine. - How do you know?

Where's your phone?

I don't know.

There must be a phone here, where are your offices?

Over there.

I'm going to find out what's going on.

I'm coming with you.

I don't believe this is happening to us.

Rina, stop it. Nothing's happened yet.

There she is.

Where have you been? You're late.

I dropped off the dress.

What happened?

Terrorist attack.

Again? Where?

Herzel street.

But I was just there.

Are you okay?

Yes, I...

It's okay.

Al-Kubaissi is working on acquiring explosives

through his French contacts.

We have to stop him before it hits us.

The French don't want us operating in their country.

Mashar's killing was very embarrassing

for the government.

There's a lot of money coming in from Arab countries

to French banks, hotels and restaurants.

The Arabs are their allies now, not us.

We think they're planning an attack

using a ship that could get here.

Problem is he's very careful.

He comes for a day or two,

stays in different hotels,

disappears and then returns to Beirut.

My daughter was on Herzel Street,

close to where the terrorist attack took place.

Ruthie? She okay?

Yes, sort of.

It's everywhere.

You know?

They want to kill us and our children

and are working on getting the weapons to do it.

Do whatever you need to do in Paris.

Pnina?

- Have you seen my scarf? - You're going to Paris again?

Have fun.

It's not the Paris we knew.

Because of De Gaulle? The new regime?

It's a complete turn around.

I'm hiding from the police like a criminal.

Can't you call some of our friends over there?

The ones we used to hang out with?

Most of them are no longer in positions of power.

What about Francis?

I'd prefer he doesn't know anything.

We have other contacts. I can talk to them.

Are you setting up a trip to Paris for yourself?

You don't have to come.

It's not happening, Pnina.

It's been too long since your training.

It's very dangerous now.

Be careful out there.

You're worried about me?

Always.

I'll bring you some Madeleine cookies. A big box.

You are serious about

keeping our meetings secret, I see.

Beirut is full of spies.

I'm trying to keep your cover.

Now you are very important. More than you realise.

How was Paris?

Lovely as always.

I miss it.

But Europe has become very dangerous for us.

You're right.

Maybe this will help.

You can change the photos if you need to.

No, these are excellent.

We need them now more than ever.

My guy there is very good. A communist.

Used to work with the resistance.

Now he's a freelancer.

Here, for your trouble.

Thank you.

What about the explosives?

Very expensive.

We can't stop now.

Our men are being caught and killed all over the world.

We have the money.

We can't let the Israelis think they're winning.

Don't worry, I'll get the explosives.

What do we know?

Not much.

It's a new target. Al-Kubaissi.

Are we walking into a shootout?

University professor.

Just keep your cover.

Shit.

Detectives are following you inside, abort.

How many?

Too many. Take the back exit.

The Jordanian ambassador

is going to be in the Saudi embassy in Sudan next week.

It's not that well-protected.

Many invitees are from foreign countries,

we can grab them all.

We can exchange them for Abu-Daoud.

Maybe even pressure them to release our men from Italy.

Even if you get the ambassador,

they'll surround your team quickly.

This time I will be there,

communicating with my team directly with a comm device.

Fadi Zuhdi, our PLO ambassador, is there.

He can organise everything quickly.

You can't involve the PLO directly.

We're Black September, a splinter organisation.

You can't implicate the PLO.

You said everyone knows, right?

- Does it matter? - It matters!

The PLO is a legitimate political organisation

with offices in Europe.

You could risk everything if they connect the dots.

And why do I even need your approval?

Because I founded Black September

and I command it.

- You? - Yes, me.

Relax.

I fought too hard to keep us all working together.

This has been our problem from the start.

That we can't work together. Please!

We need to get Abu-Daoud out of prison

for tactical reasons, not just personal.

Go to Sudan, see if you can set this up safely,

without involving the PLO.

It's a mistake.

Abu-Daoud is one of us, Abu-Youssef.

You don't understand what it means to be tortured there.

I would do the same if it were you. And more.

Fine.

I'll make sure you have financing for the operation.

Go. You now have the new passports.

Okay.

Take the back door.

Sir.

We're sending one hothead to save another.

Just great.

I need someone to take care of a problem

we have here, in Beirut.

We are constantly being watched.

Find somebody else. I'm busy.

I hate the cold.

Yeah?

You miss South America.

Dragging Nazis was much more fun.

We're just waiting for him to show up at a whorehouse.

"Madame Juliette."

Nice name for a whorehouse.

How old is that man?

Fifty.

At least.

Old enough to be a Nazi collaborator

30 years ago.

They all went back to their lives

as if nothing happened.

It's a never-ending party.

You want to kill him?

Have a conversation with them first,

of course,

to make sure.

Of course. Have a few laughs.

We did that after the war, you know?

I know.

- Good evening. - Hey.

What kind of food do you think they serve in there?

Frog legs. You're hungry?

I bet Al-Kubaissi is already in there,

and I'll spot him.

Shit.

We're made! Drive!

Hello, Esther. What...

What's wrong? Is Mike okay?

He's fine. Sorry... Sorry for showing up like this.

He can't call you. He's undercover.

Of course.

We know this individual is in Paris,

but we don't know where.

Unfortunately, the target is not using a certain...

service anymore, Madame Juliette.

How can I help?

We need to find out

who Madame Juliette's competition is.

You want to know who else is running

a prostitution ring for wealthy clients in Paris?

- A different madam? - Yes.

You're embarrassed?

Well, it's a little weird, isn't it?

What?

Two Israeli women talking about getting our enemies laid?

It's fine, that's the job sometimes.

Mike just can't talk to any of his...

your old contacts over there.

He thinks maybe you can.

Did Mike mention who I should talk to?

He said maybe Charlotte, but not Francis.

He's still in the service.

And he said unfortunately you can't travel over there.

Although he'd love to see you and he misses you.

He didn't tell you the last part, did he?

I'm sworn to secrecy.

Well played.

Just make sure he comes home safe.

- My brother! - Fadi.

Welcome to Sudan. Blessings onto you.

I'm so happy it's you here to meet me.

I'm sorry I couldn't pick you up from the airport myself.

You know we can't be seen together.

Don't worry. Nobody knows I'm in Sudan.

I have a French passport.

Is the device here?

High frequency. Like you asked.

And another small one for the team.

It's old, but it's the best.

Finally. Full control.

You're not going to use this office, right?

It's the official PLO offices.

Don't worry.

You worry too much.

Madame Martin.

It's a call girl operation.

She probably has a black book

with phone numbers of clients and where they stay.

Maybe she knows Al-Kubaissi.

I know the area. Fancy.

Is it information to Pnina?

Try to be discreet.

Police National.

To protect and serve.

Please leave.

There's jewellery over there.

You can use the window over there,

it leads directly to the street.

Sorry about this, Madame Martin.

I didn't think you'd come back so soon.

- Who are you? - Special police investigator.

You should know that I know the chief of police.

All we need is a piece of information.

I don't discuss my clients.

I'm not going to hurt you. I'm a cop.

Calvados?

I don't drink on the job.

Of course you do.

It's kind of a tradition.

What is your name?

Inspector Rochard.

Nice name for a very good-looking man.

Sit down, you're making me nervous.

We're looking for someone and we need your help.

Everyone is always looking for something.

It's so tiring. Don't you think?

We know you don't operate a brothel,

but that you send the girls out to your clients.

The telephone is a wonderful invention.

And we need to know where a certain man is staying.

The name is Al-Kubaissi.

I never give information.

You know that, right? Inspector Rochard...

...or whatever your name is?

Don't make me force the information out of you.

I would give you anything you want.

You don't need threaten me...

for now.

I mean it.

I mean it too.

You, on the other hand,

are not a policeman, huh?

And you're obviously not French.

But I don't care.

Is that right?

Yes, that's right.

Who are you?

What are you...

Listen to me, you Nazi whore!

You will tell us anything we need to know

or I'll cut your face, understand?

I don't...

You know and you'll tell us.

Just like you cooperated with the Nazis

when they were here.

- Ludwig! - Shut up!

I was here in '45 after the war.

Women just like you, their heads were shaved.

We can do that too.

Who are you?

The Nazis killed my family.

So, tell us what we need to know.

Now!

This is it. The moment we waited for.

Inside they're partying, cooperating with the West,

while our brothers are tortured in prisons.

It's time we made a stand.

I can't tell you how important this is.

Adham, you're in command.

But we're all behind you. All the people.

Let's do this.

Let's go.

To glory. To the revolution.

Move! No! Move! Go! Move it! Down! On the ground! Go!

Move it! Move! Down! Down!

Who are you?

U.S ambassador.

Excellent.

Mr. Matheson, first I would like to--

You got some nerve, Salah.

Are you insane?

The American ambassador, huh?

- I didn't know he was there. - I don't believe you.

Maybe we should just hand you to the Israelis.

It's a splinter organization.

I'm trying to get them under control.

You think we'll negotiate with you?

These repeated kidnappings,

killings, attacks, enough!

They must all be released within 24 hours.

The men I'm dealing with,

they don't like threats.

They are crazy.

We don't control these maniacs.

Some people will have to be released.

Like your friend Abu-Daoud in Jordan?

For example.

We tried to be a fair partner in your struggle,

but now you've crossed the line,

fix it.

I will see what I can do.

What do you mean they refuse to negotiate?

They don't want to talk to us at all.

That's impossible.

We have the Americans, the Jordanians.

They have to agree.

They told us on the phone to go fuck ourselves.

Our deadline is nearly over. What do we do?

Your government refused to negotiate.

But what about the Egyptians?

They said they have a compromise.

I have orders. No compromise.

But--

Thank you.

Apparently, Nixon is furious.

It's about time.

After the terrorists were caught,

they got to the PLO offices there,

and found high-frequency communication devices

and maps of the embassy.

Salame?

Nowhere to be found.

As was the local PLO official.

But these idiots

used the PLO's vehicle for the attack.

It's all in the open now.

PLO are directly supporting terrorism against the US.

Did the Americans tell you anything?

I hope we'll get carte blanche now

to do what needs to be done.

Finally.

They found him.

At the hotel she gave us. He arrived last night.

Pnina did well.

Always.

They connected PLO to Black September.

It's all over the news.

And you didn't even get Abu-Daoud out!

There was no other way to set up the attack.

You knew this. Abu-Youssef knew this.

Did you have to execute them?

Of course. Either this or we're back to Thailand,

where we got nothing.

Now the PLO is connected to Munich.

And all our offices worldwide are now in trouble!

How did you expect it to end?

Not only are we being hunted in Europe,

we will be hunted all over the Arab world now.

The Sudanese are furious,

and the Egyptians are also furious!

Fuck the Egyptians!

They want to control us.

You told me, nobody should control us. You.

But now it seems like we don't control ourselves.

We're on the world stage now.

That's the price.

Where are you going?

- Salame, where are you going? - Home.

Don't go home.

We'll all be hunted now.

Even here.

You think I don't know that?

I'm telling you

I've spotted them right outside the door!

Our friends in blue.

What are we doing about the police?

Staying away as much as possible.

And we follow their communications,

we're on their frequencies.

When is he coming in?

Still early.

Optimistic I see.

He could be here any minute.

A good boy scout should always be prepared.

I hope these work.

They work.

No shell casings on the ground.

Nothing for the police to find.

We tested it in the lab.

Hm.

Lab is one thing.

Field is another.

Taxi central,

the client is here.

Zvika.

He's getting out of a car.

Take him, before he gets to the entrance.

But wait for the driver to leave.

He's with a woman.

Who is she?

Who is she?

Probably a prostitute.

Can they take him now?

She's a witness. We'll have to take her out too.

No good deed goes unpunished, right?

Wait until he's by himself.

They went inside.

Stay there.

And another night is ruined.

What was that about?

What do you think?

You think it's still going down?

We knew this was going to happen.

That's the job.

You wanted to be in the field. That's the routine.

A commander needs to be in the field.

To make the hard decisions.

I quit.

What if he's with the woman the whole night?

These things don't usually take long.

Maybe he goes out to dinner later.

He could order room service.

In Paris? I don't think so.

Those Marxists have expensive taste.

Gotta spend Gaddafi's money somewhere.

If you want to commit the perfect crime

and not get caught,

you must have a lot of patience.

I wonder what you would have done with your life

if you weren't in the Mossad.

Never thought about it.

You think like a criminal.

Thanks.

Would you become a criminal?

Would you?

Me? I would be the cop chasing you.

I would make it very hard for you.

I have no doubt.

They're coming out.

Mike.

Al-Kubaissi left the hotel.

Still with the woman.

Our friends in blue?

Far away.

Wait for her to get away.

She is leaving.

He's alone.

He's seen us.

No! Don't do this!

What is happening?

It's done.

Let's get out of here.

What is it about?

Come with me please.

My plane is about to take off.

Come.

Mike.

Good to see you.

It's Michel.

Mr. Belmont.

It's a good one.

It's been a long time. Years.

We had a murder tonight.

A foreign professor was killed on the street.

Very professional work. No shell casings were found.

A certain Mr. Al-Kubaissi.

It's a tragedy.

I heard your wife made some calls,

to some mutual friends.

She's her own person.

And a Mr. Goldberg,

who looks very much

like a certain Israeli ex-general,

Zvi Zamir. He's flying out tonight as well.

Don't know him.

Mike...

I like you, I really do,

but things have changed.

This has to stop.

France is not your killing ground.

France has interests.

You want to fight the Arabs? Fight over there, not here.

I'll wait two hours to file my report,

for old times.

But don't ever do this again.

Enjoy your flight.

Thank you, Francis.

Say hello to Pnina for me.

Don't worry,

they sell Madeleines at the duty free.

I told you, Europe is done. I told you.

He was getting us the explosives for the Haifa attack!

It's what you wanted, right?

Well, that was the price.

The Zionists should pay a price, not us.

We should hit them in return!

So you're saying Arab countries providing funds

for the PLO are unwittingly providing funds

for the hijacking of airliners

and attacking countries like Jordan and Sudan,

and attacks against Israeli athletes?

Yes.

Some of it, yes.

And acts of Black September are really acts

by the PLO,

ordered by PLO leadership?

Yes.

The leadership orders them.

You realize they're going to let him go now?

Nixon is furious.

We really tried to work with these guys.

State Department worked for months

on the Rogers peace deal.

But they just keep on blowing stuff up.

Sudan attack was the last straw.

It was all over the newspapers.

They linked the PLO to Black September.

Satellite pictures.

We're using this technology more now.

It's better than maps.

Verdun Street in Beirut.

This is where several Black September

and high-ranking PLO members live.

How was it?

Get me a meeting with the prime minister.

About?

We're going to end this.

Kill them all.
