All language subtitles for Game Set Match 10 Mexico Set

Thanks, George.

But no markup.

No. No markup.

Every time I come home, I find someone
different on my doorstep.

I brought your tickets and your travel
money.

Why didn't they send a messenger?

Because I wanted to come myself.

Would you like a drink now you're here?

Yes, yes, thanks very much.

It's a very early flight, I'm afraid.

I could drive you to the airport.

I've told my parents I won't be coming
home tonight.

I expect I could fit into one of your
children's beds.

I wouldn't be any trouble.

He is thin.

Not a joke, I promise you.

I'm still waiting for the pay -off line.

It's a kiss -off, not a pay -off.

People are saying you're not going to
come back.

That something's going to go wrong and
you're going to get killed in Mexico.

And I want you to come back.

Yeah, me go.

Hello?

Dinner's had five days, Bernie.

You've already lost us two of them.

Speak something about this city that
saps one's sense of energy.

Did you find me a gun?

This is Mexico, not Berlin.

It's not my backyard.

Just a stick to wave around?

Hmm?

You don't feel comfortable about all of
this, huh?

You feel something is wrong.

So do you.

Stills keeps asking where you are.

He only has three days left.

I don't want him feeling too cozy.

Do you not feel him yet?

All day, every day.

She's waiting for you.

Erich accepts $250 ,000 as the final
price.

But he wishes to remind you of one
Russian defector who sold out to the

Americans, a man with a first -class
brain, who ended up running a

Stanis wants a laundrette.

Erich won't actually move without you
because he feels very exposed.

We all feel exposed, Dana.

Because you still don't believe him?

Perhaps you should try to understand
that he is not wanting to come over

he likes the idea of living in the West.

It is because he can no longer stand to
live in the East.

He needs to know what a way of life he
will have.

The money is a sign to show that London
is serious.

Then he will talk to us on his own
chosen ground.

I'll meet Stennis wherever he wants, but
alone.

Just him and myself.

The money is to be handed over in a
trance.

In cash.

If there is no money, he won't even meet
with you.

What is the intent of doing the suitcase
full of pound notes in the middle of

Mexico City?

American dollars. That is what God is
for.

In used hundred dollar bills.

Gold sovereigns, lotties, shark's teeth,
curry shells. What's the difference?

He's flying to England.

He'll have a letter of credit and a bank
account waiting for him.

I think he wants to put it somewhere
where no one can get their hands on it.

I think he intends to give it to someone
he trusts here in Mexico.

He gives his money to someone he trusts,
and yet he's prepared to give his body

to somebody he doesn't trust.

I don't understand.

You wouldn't, would you?

You have no faith in anyone or anything
since your wife left you.

She doesn't like to be left out.

I want to see Stennis face to face.

Not alone.

Okay? I don't even want you there,
fella.

He's nervous.

He's being watched.

Zena seems to get to see him without any
trouble.

Girlfriends don't seem to matter so
much.

Isn't that why you are using her?

Oh, muchas gracias, my liebe Frau...

God, this looks like something Billy the
Kid was playing with a hundred years

ago.

What are these?

I mean... Zeno's Infatuation Present.

Wrong.

There's only one thing Tina's infatuated
with, and her stint is about to take

delivery of a quarter of a million of
them.

Your view of love is very cynical.

I would do anything for her.

She'd like the crown jewels, Fiona.

She gives me more than she takes from
me, Bernie.

Another man is not a real betrayal.

He needs just misery and humiliation.

Fiona didn't leave you for another man.

No, to be betrayed for an ideology is
worse, though, isn't it?

Where were... Where were our feelings?

Emotions seem so bloody real.

It was all just a piece of theatre.

Twelve yards.

Meaningless.

I don't believe she had to invent the
way she felt about you and the children.

Perhaps kids is what Zena needs.

You always make it seem as though you
despise her.

And she's trying to help you.

I don't despise her.

She frightens me.

And you don't see why she frightens me,
which frightens me even more.

She's an amateur.

And amateurs keep their eyes on the
targets instead of looking over their

shoulders.

It's going to be you and me out there in
the firing line, brother.

Going for a man I'm not sure of in a
country I'm lost in.

It's like you say.

Mexico City's not our backyard.

We do not.

know the ground rules here.

You're not going to help much, are you?

Coming to you later.

All is in order?

Nothing wrong?

I hope.

Or did you try to unsettle me?

We'll get two days in silence.

Jet lag, Mr. Stennis.

We're told never to negotiate under the
influence.

This is still a negotiation?

Oh, depends what game you're playing.

What games are there?

This Moscow game?

Where you lead me by the nose and then
turn around and say no thanks?

You will find a way to prevent me.

I'm sure.

That is your job.

You got the money with you?

You're still negotiating?

Oh, you and I haven't even started to
negotiate yet.

I asked for a job in one of your
universities.

It exactly is a job in university.

I would like to teach Russian politics.

Oh, why Oxford?

They always win the boat race.

And perhaps there are people in Oxford
that might attract the interest of few

degrees.

Is that meant to be some kind of an
offer?

You haven't made one yourself.

Yet.

Well, I'm not sure that specific offers
can be made in the two days left to us.

Apart from the money.

You asked me to take a hell of a lot of
trouble.

Let me into the Samson.

If I thought you were playing the fool
with me, I would kill you.

I can say the same.

One Russian passport.

In the names of Bernard, William, and
Sally Thompson.

I know how she feels about her children.

I did not find it very easy to say
goodbye to my son this time in Berlin.

Knowing I might never see him again.

The plan was abandoned on my orders.

Is this meant as another token of good
faith?

What about you, Tocqueville?

but it was at least a second.

The money will be handled by a contact
from the embassy.

There will be a safe room for you to
count it in.

You mean the husband of the defector is
not transferred with the cash?

We go direct from there to the airport.

No stopovers in other NATO countries?
There is no American involvement.

So, if... Anything goes wrong, it will
be your fault.

Ah, that is always the London game, Mr.
Stenis.

The distance game, Samson.

How many seats are booked in the
airplane?

Two, just you and myself.

No one else.

Mrs. Faulkner is meant to be traveling
with me.

Apparently, your people in London
agreed.

Well, I haven't agreed, and it's my
operation.

You're very close.

We intend to be together.

As far as I can see, Frau Volkmann's
chief interest lies in dollar bills.

I enjoy women, Mr. Simpson.

But I'm not stupid about them.

I'm not stupid about anything.

I'm over 40.

I'll not be ending up a general in
Moscow with a car and a driver to take

home every night.

But you're not convinced what you're
doing.

Two people are dead, Mr. Stilles.

I don't intend to complete the hat
trick.

Moscow believes your wife is protecting
you.

What do you believe?

I don't believe anything.

Listen, Stimmy.

You will be unarmed tomorrow.

And I'll kill you if I even see a KGB
man whichever side you're on.

You're more nervous than last time.

You are going to need my cooperation,
you know.

One raised eyebrow from me and they
could begin to suspect you're Moscow's

What the hell are you doing here?

I'm your contact from the embassy.

A quarter of a million in used hundred
dollar bills.

Jesus.

Well, what have you dragged me all the
way out here for? Because it's discreet.

Were you followed? Of course I'm not
being followed.

I'm not working against you, you know.

Look, you must understand that the
success of this operation will be

whether or not we get our man to London.

Nothing else counts.

Is that life and death?

Very philosophical.

I can assure you, you get philosophical
after London Central screw up for you a

few times.

London Central has confirmed that I have
overall charge of this operation and

sole responsibility for the money.

Now, you have come to an arrangement
with Stinnis and I have to know about

And where precisely in Takuba?

At Takaria, by the metro.

Thank you, sirs.

Ronnie would be gay.

Well, I can't risk a quarter of a
million dollars of government money in

bedlam. The bedlam's the whole point of
it!

What the hell have you told him? Mrs.
Bultman's given him a new time and a new

place. Now she's sleeping with you, too?

I've agreed the money should be handed
over to her.

Another room has been arranged for the
country.

Gracias.

By the way, Samson, that was an
extremely distasteful remark.

Not exactly checkpoint Charlie, is it?

You don't

seriously

think Sturridge is going to walk into
this rat trap, do you?

Perfectly respectable money exchange,
Mr. Thomas.

It's great, but unofficial.

I've been in Mexico a long time, Samson.

Believe me, I do know how to get things
done.

Let's make a start. You

seriously

believe

he's just going to walk in here?

The arrangement has been made.

He knows the money's here.

Winter. 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, 10, 20,

30, 40, 50, 60, 80, 90, 100,

10, 20, 30, 40,

50, 60, 100, 90, 100.

Who the hell are they?

Your lot, I suppose.

I didn't even know we were coming here.
Remember?

They've come for Stinnis.

I imagine they'll shoot him.

Then she'll take the money. Is that the
trade -off?

Poor van.

that he would not be hurt.

You clear it up.

Where's Cena? Tell me one thing, Justin.

Where is she?

She's running and he got us all killed.
Where do you think?

Thanks for the warning. You were ten
minutes too late.

I didn't know that he was a Mexican.

It just seemed a possibility.

Your lady friend reported everything
back to him.

She did think you'd be safe.

That was the bargain she made.

Safe.

And good luck.

Stay in a country before your friend
arrived.

Quarter of a million dollars, all
present and correct.

I'm not here for the money.

Oh, take it anyway.

I'm sure you'll have no trouble getting
rid of it.

Was she hurt?

Cena? It'll take more than Moskvin to
kill Frau Volkmann.

And Moskvin?

He'll survive.

He won't like that.

And he won't forget it.

You mean I should have killed him?

Let's go.

Boy, you really think of everything,
don't you? I prefer forever.

Vamos.

What is a death man?

Most people are.

Seems as if we might have something in
common.

Nearly there, sir.

You abandon me here?

Come on, you know the form. One man
brings you in.

Let's ask the question.

Good to see you again, Governor.

How are you? I'm great, never better.

Here we are.

Hi.

Here.

Come in with us.

Yeah.

Ferry Path, SAS, London Central.

Use for detention, repressor causes, and
debriefing.

How long will they keep me here?

If there's nothing good to chew on, you
could be out in the big wide world by

Christmas.

Am I six or am I five?

Six.

We find you, we get first crack at you.

There's a lot of very nervous deaf men
in London waiting to hear what you've

to say for yourself.

I don't know.

Normality, sir.

$250 ,000 in $100 bills.

Okay.

How did you get it counted, sir?

In the tape.

Is it the passport you handed to
Heathrow?

Price, no.

Temporary import license, if that's what
you're looking for.

Home office have to accept you.

It would be amusing if they classified
me as an illegal immigrant and sent me

back to Moscow.

Mexico.

Are we sent back to previous point of
departure?

Oh, excuse me, sir.

There's a health form here that'll have
to be filled in.

They'll be wanting it before dinner
time.

I mean, there's no point in wasting
money on custard pies if you turn out to

a diabetic.

Will you just lately follow me, sir?

You'll have to sign the papers.

Mr. Sampson.

Smoked salmon at Stilton.

I

understand

that everything that goes on in these
four walls is your responsibility.

It was hard work getting him here.

Now he needs a little care and
attention.

He is a Russian.

We're trying to seduce him, Mr. Barnes.

And I sincerely hope you haven't left a
Gideon Bible in his bedroom.

You have to sign the papers.

Bit of a bloody mess, wasn't it?

I mean, Henry could have been seriously
hurt.

I could have been seriously hurt.

Zena was seriously hurt.

Oh, people think it's a cushy number in
here, don't they?

Well, they should have deputy controller
parenthesis Europe reading down their

necks. And endless bloody meetings with
every damn committee down both sides of

Whitehall.

I suppose, like Daphne, you think it's
all lunches at the Mirabelle, don't you?

Yes.

Yes, well, I for one had clearly
understood down that corridor that I had

absolutely nothing to do with the
logistics of the operation in Mexico.

As far as I am concerned, you were in
charge.

Pity you didn't tell that to your chum
Tiptree.

You could say we were trying him out.

What, as a clown?

How is your Mr. Stinnes?

Our Mr. Stinnes, Dickie.

Your Mr. Stinnes, Bernard.

Disorientated.

Isn't that always the fate of defectors?

I'd like to keep an eye on his debrief
on behalf of the German desk.

Why?

If they handle him wrongly, they'll get
nothing out of him at all.

And I think he's got lots to tell.

That is exactly why I don't want my
German desk to have anything at all to

with him.

Not until we know what kind of dirt
they're going to dig out of him.

We've done our job. We've got hold of
him. Now it's up to the debriefers.

You're not to go anywhere near him, and
that is an order. Bernard!

And just remember, the DG doesn't like
bad news in front of outsiders.

Carry on.

I persuaded the Mexico police to arrest
the money changer for unlicensed

premises and then had Mrs. Volkman and
the Russian carted off to a private

clinic. I believe the embassy had to pay
hush money. $50 ,000, not including the

clinic.

And a very high -level apology that did
not come easy.

I think I should say that it was Samson
who created the situation by using an

unauthorized firearm.

You shot this subject?

Where?

In the heel.

Huh. And the Mexican with the machine
pistol?

Mrs. Vaultman had already immobilized
him, sir.

The machine pistol was lying on the
floor.

Mr. Tiptree failed to pick it up.

He probably didn't know how to use it.

Where was Stennis?

Oh, it was clear to me that he wouldn't
risk the rendezvous.

No one in their right mind would have
walked up there, not in Stennis'

No, it was a bad error of judgment made
by somebody with no experience,

appointed over my head, apparently with
the sanction of someone here in London

Central.

Are you making an allegation?

I'm telling you what happened.

Your version of what happened.

What other version is there?

It seems to me that... Tiptree, sir.

Tiptree will correct his version of
events and that it will be filed with

Samson's comments as a post -script.

Who's in charge of the debrief?

Barry Cubs, initially, E .G.

Uh, within my sphere of influence.

Whatever the hell that means.

What the hell does it mean, Brett?

It means first call, or whatever the
hell that means.

Which one of you is holding the file for
the debriefers?

Consensus seems to have become a
department file, not a German desk file.

Department source material is Brett.

I said first call.

I can't agree. It's my direct
responsibility.

Wonderful.

I risked my ass bringing this Soviet
back for you because London Central

him so much, and all you can do now he's
here is play pass the bloody parcel

with him.

Welcome back to the monkey house.

Hello. How are you?

What are you doing, Bernard?

Aren't you?

I missed you.

How's he?

Do you know, nobody seemed to know what
was going on out there.

And nobody would tell me either.

Until the day before yesterday.

Then what?

Well, most people seem to think you did
very well.

I'll bet Kimber Hutchinson loves the
idea of a used car lot.

He calls himself a socialist, but holds
it against me because I haven't got the

right family background or the right
education.

I think the old dog really hates me.

He's not exactly crazy about me, either.

He's going all out for the children.

He wants formal adoption.

Over my dead body?

Yeah.

And Tethered.

And probably Fiona's, too.

Billy?

Billy! Sally!

Catch anything?

Right. Go and look at the men working on
Daddy's new car.

Daniel gave him kids to have his own to
play with.

Oh, don't you start. I get enough of
that from my mother.

Daddy? Good heavens, no.

Daddy with a grandson called Kaczynski.

I think he quietly hopes if he's rude
enough, poor George will disappear and

I'll marry an elderly yucky puppy with a
good family name.

Everything all right with your Gloria?

Now, whatever put that idea into your
head?

Sally was saying, Daddy's got a
girlfriend.

How could she?

They haven't even seen her yet.

Well, it's time they did then, isn't it?

Little girls are good at getting that
kind of thing.

And they also don't like to be left out.

You're going to have to tell them,
Bernie.

Mummy's not coming home anymore.

Daddy!

Daddy, can I start the car?

Quite proud of finding that for you,
Miss George.

That way.

Uncle George says it goes 130.

That's even faster than Mummy.

Daddy never drives far. Mummy says so.

Is Mummy coming back for Christmas?

But she still loves us, doesn't she?

Of course she does.

And still loves you, doesn't she?

This is going to be difficult, I know.

You mustn't mind it, I don't.

Evening, Miss Kent. Evening.

Oh, kids, this is Gloria.

Hello, Billy. Hello, Sally.

Night, Dad.

Why don't you show Gloria your room?

No. Quite right.

It's private, isn't it?

I wouldn't want to show anyone my room
either.

Gloria's going to help me hang up the
decorations.

That's right.

And when you come down tomorrow morning,
the Christmas tree will be ready.

Will you still be here?

No. No, I'll be back in my home.

Good night.

Get up again.

Good night.

I've never ever done this, you know.

You'll have to tonight. You're under
observation.

We're under observation.

What do you want?

I've got a message for Mr. Sampson.

Seems your Mr. Stinnett has come up with
a last -minute Christmas present for

you.

You were going to bring me a bunch of
flowers.

That was six weeks ago.

They've been keeping you away from me.

Yes.

Your methods of debriefing here are very
amateur.

Six weeks now.

We have only covered routine procedures.

Without much stilton and smoked salmon.

You said I'd be out by Christmas.

I think by Easter I'll be lucky.

And this is an attempt to speed things
up, is it?

What is?

I've been given an air ticket.

I thought they'd send you.

Four days before Christmas.

For you, Samson.

A couple of nights in Berlin.

You could go and sing... It's a... Oh.

Play Christmas by... Who is this target?

Private secretary of a junior minister
in Bonn.

They take advantage of Christmas
parties.

A passage of documents.

It's always a good time of year to move
the pieces around the board in Berlin.

Instead, of course, you're thinking
someone is pushing me around the board.

And what if that someone is setting me
up for something?

What would you be thinking in my place?
