1
00:00:13,012 --> 00:00:15,641
["Nemesis" playing]

2
00:01:46,439 --> 00:01:47,441
[music ends]

3
00:01:52,403 --> 00:01:55,031
[announcer speaking Belarusian
on PA system]

4
00:01:56,700 --> 00:01:57,909
[officer speaks Russian]

5
00:01:58,409 --> 00:02:00,912
[announcer continues on PA system]

6
00:02:07,418 --> 00:02:08,961
[officer speaks Russian]

7
00:02:10,129 --> 00:02:12,633
[announcer 2 speaking Russian
on PA system]

8
00:02:16,552 --> 00:02:20,681
- [speaking Russian]
- Okay.

9
00:02:22,475 --> 00:02:25,187
- [officer speaking Russian]
- [in English] Uh… Okay.

10
00:02:26,396 --> 00:02:28,397
- [Bradley] Um…
- [speaking Russian]

11
00:02:28,481 --> 00:02:29,691
[in English] Okay.

12
00:02:38,491 --> 00:02:41,537
Hey, uh, they just pulled me
out of the security line.

13
00:02:42,162 --> 00:02:45,206
And, uh, they're going
through my bag right now. Oh, shit.

14
00:02:46,123 --> 00:02:49,795
I-I uploaded, um,
some of the files to the drafts folders

15
00:02:49,877 --> 00:02:52,798
so they should
be coming through now. But… Fuck.

16
00:02:52,881 --> 00:02:55,425
Wait. They took my computer.

17
00:02:55,509 --> 00:02:56,759
Hey, um… That's…

18
00:02:56,843 --> 00:02:58,971
- [officer arguing in Russian]
- I need my computer. That's…

19
00:02:59,054 --> 00:03:01,473
I'm a journalist
and I can't work without my computer.

20
00:03:01,556 --> 00:03:03,891
I'm gonna miss my plane.
I need to get back to New Yo--

21
00:03:03,975 --> 00:03:06,270
- Stop! You're hurting me.
- [officer speaking Russian]

22
00:03:06,353 --> 00:03:08,437
[in English]
Where are you taking me? I'm a journalist.

23
00:03:08,521 --> 00:03:10,314
Stop it! Stop!

24
00:03:11,817 --> 00:03:13,651
[John] Thanks for sharing this, Alex.

25
00:03:14,735 --> 00:03:17,990
They claim they found
a suspicious hard drive in her luggage.

26
00:03:18,073 --> 00:03:20,116
What's the State Department saying?

27
00:03:20,199 --> 00:03:23,620
Oh, they're reviewing her case to see
if she qualifies as unlawfully detained.

28
00:03:23,704 --> 00:03:24,704
It could take weeks.

29
00:03:24,788 --> 00:03:26,998
The Belarusians
haven't charged her officially.

30
00:03:27,081 --> 00:03:29,626
But what does that mean?
Char-Charged with what?

31
00:03:29,710 --> 00:03:32,378
Espionage. Conspiracy against the state.
It could be anything.

32
00:03:32,461 --> 00:03:34,965
Espionage? She was chasing a story.

33
00:03:36,133 --> 00:03:37,259
What story?

34
00:03:38,050 --> 00:03:40,304
Something that happened before the merger.

35
00:03:40,387 --> 00:03:42,889
[stammers] A pollution cover-up in Ohio.

36
00:03:42,973 --> 00:03:44,182
A place called Wolf River.

37
00:03:44,265 --> 00:03:47,519
[Ben stammers] If the story's in Ohio,
what's she doing in Belarus?

38
00:03:47,603 --> 00:03:50,229
[Alex] She was meeting a source. Someone
who worked for the chemical company.

39
00:03:50,313 --> 00:03:52,399
I don't… I don't have all the details

40
00:03:52,481 --> 00:03:55,319
because she and Chip were
still putting all the pieces together.

41
00:03:55,401 --> 00:03:56,944
[stammers] Wait. Chip Black?

42
00:03:57,028 --> 00:04:01,157
Oh, God. She asked for institutional
support and cover for her travel.

43
00:04:01,241 --> 00:04:02,783
And I said no.

44
00:04:03,451 --> 00:04:05,245
Uh… [sighs] This isn't your fault.

45
00:04:05,329 --> 00:04:07,997
You… There's no way you could've known.

46
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:10,792
All right. What is happening?
Do… Am I getting on a plane?

47
00:04:10,876 --> 00:04:14,212
Uh… The last thing we need
is more eyes on this.

48
00:04:14,712 --> 00:04:16,963
We have to go through
the State Department.

49
00:04:17,048 --> 00:04:20,009
If this blows up,
it'll only be harder to get her back.

50
00:04:20,927 --> 00:04:22,762
We need to talk about news coverage.

51
00:04:22,846 --> 00:04:26,016
[stammers] I know,
but this is going to leak at some point.

52
00:04:26,098 --> 00:04:29,394
And we need to be ready to run something.
Also, what do we tell staff?

53
00:04:29,478 --> 00:04:30,646
Nothing yet.

54
00:04:30,728 --> 00:04:32,146
Not until we know more.

55
00:04:32,898 --> 00:04:34,106
I'll speak to the State Department.

56
00:04:34,191 --> 00:04:37,069
And I wanna see any
Bradley Jackson package before it runs.

57
00:04:37,151 --> 00:04:38,862
Nothing goes out until we're ready.

58
00:04:40,656 --> 00:04:41,865
- Okay.
- [Ben] Of course.

59
00:04:45,911 --> 00:04:47,620
Okay, we'll figure it out.

60
00:04:48,288 --> 00:04:49,331
Oh. I'll call you back.

61
00:04:49,413 --> 00:04:50,831
Hey. Quick question.

62
00:04:50,915 --> 00:04:53,043
You should've stayed gone. You were free.

63
00:04:53,125 --> 00:04:56,254
- Well, then I wouldn't get to bother you.
- [chuckles]

64
00:04:56,338 --> 00:04:58,173
So, why is Chris on call for TMS all week?

65
00:04:58,257 --> 00:05:00,091
I was supposed to have her clear
for the next few days.

66
00:05:00,175 --> 00:05:01,927
Oh, someone should've told Bradley.

67
00:05:02,009 --> 00:05:03,011
Why? What's she doing?

68
00:05:03,095 --> 00:05:04,303
She's sick.

69
00:05:04,387 --> 00:05:06,473
So sick she couldn't even send a text.

70
00:05:07,098 --> 00:05:09,350
- Seriously?
- Yeah, Ben said to roll with it.

71
00:05:09,434 --> 00:05:12,187
I'm about to roll my ass
to the bar if you wanna get a drink.

72
00:05:12,271 --> 00:05:13,312
[scoffs]

73
00:05:15,314 --> 00:05:17,276
I don't care if it's unconfirmed.

74
00:05:17,358 --> 00:05:20,653
Just on background, give…
give me your best guess.

75
00:05:22,697 --> 00:05:23,740
[sighs]

76
00:05:26,785 --> 00:05:28,452
All right, all right.
Thanks. I appreciate it.

77
00:05:28,536 --> 00:05:30,163
- Oh, God.
- What?

78
00:05:30,247 --> 00:05:32,540
[sighs] They're gonna press charges
against Bradley.

79
00:05:32,624 --> 00:05:35,002
- [sighing] Oh, shit.
- I'm gonna fucking throw up.

80
00:05:35,084 --> 00:05:37,420
[stammers] Lying to
government officials, at a minimum.

81
00:05:37,504 --> 00:05:41,841
My friend at the IMF said that they're
planning to move her end of day tomorrow.

82
00:05:41,925 --> 00:05:44,218
- Alex, if that happens--
- Yeah, I know.

83
00:05:44,302 --> 00:05:46,971
And everybody that I've been speaking to
in D.C. is saying just what Celine says,

84
00:05:47,055 --> 00:05:48,723
which is just let
the State Department handle it.

85
00:05:48,807 --> 00:05:50,893
I-I just started going through
the documents Bradley sent over.

86
00:05:50,975 --> 00:05:53,687
So we don't know what-what she found.

87
00:05:53,769 --> 00:05:55,605
We don't know what they think she found.

88
00:05:55,689 --> 00:05:57,356
And if Belarus says
that this is espionage…

89
00:05:57,441 --> 00:06:00,735
Exactly. I mean, these are the people
that dragged an activist off a plane.

90
00:06:00,819 --> 00:06:03,572
Their-Their top ally locked up
that Wall Street Journal reporter

91
00:06:03,654 --> 00:06:04,697
and threw away the key.

92
00:06:04,781 --> 00:06:09,076
If we don't get her back now, she
could be locked up for fucking years.

93
00:06:09,161 --> 00:06:11,288
Okay. What are we
not thinking of, Chip? Come on.

94
00:06:11,370 --> 00:06:13,456
[stammers] Who are we not thinking of?

95
00:06:13,540 --> 00:06:16,418
Who could help? Come on.
There's gotta be somebody we can call.

96
00:06:17,377 --> 00:06:18,920
- [sighs]
- Okay, look, uh…

97
00:06:19,004 --> 00:06:20,213
Belarus is like Russia, right?

98
00:06:20,297 --> 00:06:21,964
[stammers]
It's a shit show run by oligarchs.

99
00:06:22,048 --> 00:06:26,512
So we need someone who can
interface with the actual power brokers.

100
00:06:30,432 --> 00:06:31,682
You have an idea.

101
00:06:35,103 --> 00:06:37,189
Um… No, I don't.

102
00:06:37,271 --> 00:06:38,814
Yes, you do. Yes.

103
00:06:41,108 --> 00:06:43,569
Fuck me. [breathes heavily]

104
00:06:46,572 --> 00:06:47,574
What?

105
00:07:09,387 --> 00:07:10,471
[sighs]

106
00:07:25,737 --> 00:07:28,365
Hi. Thanks for meeting me.

107
00:07:31,158 --> 00:07:32,827
You said it was an emergency.

108
00:07:32,911 --> 00:07:34,413
Come on. Sit down.

109
00:07:35,204 --> 00:07:36,206
Talk to me.

110
00:07:36,290 --> 00:07:38,375
What can I do for you?

111
00:07:40,752 --> 00:07:43,172
Bradley's being detained in Belarus.

112
00:07:44,590 --> 00:07:47,634
- What?
- I know how you feel about her. I do.

113
00:07:47,718 --> 00:07:50,095
But, Paul, I really need your help.

114
00:07:50,928 --> 00:07:53,432
Well, she's on-air talent.
I mean, she's way too high-profile.

115
00:07:53,514 --> 00:07:55,683
- They're gonna let her go.
- They're about to file charges.

116
00:07:55,766 --> 00:07:58,353
- What do you want me to do about it?
- There's someone you know who could--

117
00:07:58,437 --> 00:07:59,771
- [Amanda] Alex Levy.
- [sighs]

118
00:07:59,855 --> 00:08:02,815
Every time I see your highlights
I know the sky's about to fall.

119
00:08:02,899 --> 00:08:04,567
Can you just give us
a couple minutes, please?

120
00:08:04,651 --> 00:08:07,112
I… I'm in between meetings.
And I have an event tonight, so…

121
00:08:07,196 --> 00:08:10,449
Okay. If I wanted
to get in touch with Dmitri Ivanov…

122
00:08:10,531 --> 00:08:11,533
Jesus, Alex.

123
00:08:11,617 --> 00:08:13,535
Or maybe you could talk to him

124
00:08:13,619 --> 00:08:17,372
and see if he would be willing to lean on
some government official to release her?

125
00:08:17,872 --> 00:08:22,084
You want me to broker a deal
with a sanctioned Russian oligarch?

126
00:08:22,168 --> 00:08:23,545
Go through the White House.

127
00:08:23,629 --> 00:08:25,672
Or-Or better yet,
call your friend Celine Dumont.

128
00:08:25,755 --> 00:08:27,882
Her whole family owns half of France.

129
00:08:27,966 --> 00:08:29,050
She must know someone.

130
00:08:29,134 --> 00:08:30,761
She's deferring to the State Department.

131
00:08:30,843 --> 00:08:33,013
- Paul.
- One… One second.

132
00:08:33,096 --> 00:08:35,264
Trust me, Paul. I hate this.

133
00:08:35,349 --> 00:08:38,476
I hate that I have to come here
and ask for your help.

134
00:08:38,558 --> 00:08:39,894
I really do. I'm very sorry.

135
00:08:39,976 --> 00:08:43,065
But all they keep telling me
is that I have to sit tight

136
00:08:43,148 --> 00:08:45,942
and be patient
and let the professionals handle it.

137
00:08:46,025 --> 00:08:47,568
But they're not handling it.

138
00:08:47,653 --> 00:08:51,114
And if she gets thrown in prison
and stuck there, it's my fault.

139
00:08:51,197 --> 00:08:52,908
You're not the reason she's over there.

140
00:08:52,990 --> 00:08:55,451
Well, I am. Essentially.

141
00:08:56,202 --> 00:08:57,788
- More or less.
- [whispers] God.

142
00:09:02,625 --> 00:09:03,836
I'm sorry.

143
00:09:04,586 --> 00:09:06,922
Alex… [stammers]
…there's nothing I can do.

144
00:09:09,091 --> 00:09:10,299
Yeah.

145
00:09:12,385 --> 00:09:14,471
[sighs] Okay.

146
00:09:15,847 --> 00:09:18,558
- [clicks tongue] Bye. Thanks. Bye.
- Yeah.

147
00:09:24,648 --> 00:09:28,067
- You cannot get involved with her.
- I know. I know.

148
00:09:34,032 --> 00:09:36,284
[Marcus] I know this is gonna be hard.

149
00:09:36,368 --> 00:09:38,287
I couldn't do this without you.

150
00:09:42,707 --> 00:09:45,501
We can watch it later together.
You, me, and Naima.

151
00:09:45,586 --> 00:09:46,961
- Mm-hmm.
- Mm-hmm.

152
00:09:50,756 --> 00:09:52,592
- I love you.
- I love you too.

153
00:09:54,177 --> 00:09:55,846
- [sighs]
- Ready?

154
00:09:56,929 --> 00:09:58,974
- Let's do this.
- [chuckles]

155
00:10:03,769 --> 00:10:09,692
These medals represent
integrity, sportsmanship and excellence.

156
00:10:09,775 --> 00:10:14,447
And I'm proud to finally be able
to give them to their rightful owner.

157
00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:20,620
Elaine, these belong to you.

158
00:10:25,583 --> 00:10:26,710
[staff chattering]

159
00:10:26,793 --> 00:10:31,631
In celebration of your achievement.

160
00:10:31,715 --> 00:10:32,841
[chatter continues]

161
00:10:32,924 --> 00:10:36,302
Thank you. This is an incredible honor.

162
00:10:36,385 --> 00:10:37,971
- Can I? [chuckles]
- Mm-hmm.

163
00:10:41,807 --> 00:10:46,855
Um… Oh, thank you
for understanding, for accepting.

164
00:10:48,105 --> 00:10:51,067
And, um… they look good on you.

165
00:10:51,150 --> 00:10:52,693
[both chuckle]

166
00:10:53,903 --> 00:10:56,447
Uh, we will be right back
after this break.

167
00:11:02,995 --> 00:11:05,206
[Celine] Thank you for coming in
on such short notice.

168
00:11:05,289 --> 00:11:08,376
I'm sure you understand
time is of the essence.

169
00:11:08,460 --> 00:11:11,046
Of course. Um, I do want to say that

170
00:11:11,129 --> 00:11:13,923
Alex gave us the go-ahead
to investigate this story.

171
00:11:14,006 --> 00:11:17,552
So if there's any question of liability,
or UBN's legal exposure--

172
00:11:17,635 --> 00:11:18,803
[Celine] There isn't.

173
00:11:18,886 --> 00:11:20,681
Bradley is one of ours.

174
00:11:20,764 --> 00:11:24,225
Why don't you start from the beginning?
How did you get onto the story?

175
00:11:24,308 --> 00:11:26,477
Well, Bradley got a tip
from an old colleague.

176
00:11:26,562 --> 00:11:28,187
She was busy on The Morning Show,

177
00:11:28,272 --> 00:11:30,774
so I said I would go to Ohio
and do some legwork.

178
00:11:30,857 --> 00:11:33,025
We eventually made contact with a source.

179
00:11:33,110 --> 00:11:35,320
Someone from inside Martel Chemical.

180
00:11:35,403 --> 00:11:37,655
And she said
she would only meet face-to-face, so…

181
00:11:38,573 --> 00:11:40,075
- This source…
- [Chip] Mm-hmm.

182
00:11:40,158 --> 00:11:42,034
She's a whistle-blower?

183
00:11:42,619 --> 00:11:44,745
Uh, I mean, that's what we assumed. Yeah.

184
00:11:44,830 --> 00:11:46,248
But you're not sure?

185
00:11:49,125 --> 00:11:52,254
Uh, I mean, she was a little cagey, but…

186
00:11:52,837 --> 00:11:55,090
What if she's not a whistle-blower at all?

187
00:11:56,258 --> 00:11:57,466
What if she set you up?

188
00:11:58,134 --> 00:12:00,928
This woman told Bradley
to come to a hostile country.

189
00:12:01,013 --> 00:12:02,306
She did.

190
00:12:02,389 --> 00:12:03,764
And now she's been taken.

191
00:12:04,557 --> 00:12:05,558
Bad luck?

192
00:12:06,518 --> 00:12:09,020
Or was that her plan all along?

193
00:12:09,605 --> 00:12:10,688
What? Uh, hold on.

194
00:12:10,772 --> 00:12:12,524
That's not what happened.

195
00:12:12,607 --> 00:12:14,902
Did Bradley actually meet with her?

196
00:12:14,985 --> 00:12:17,361
In the video she mentioned some files.

197
00:12:17,446 --> 00:12:23,869
Look, if she did send something,
um, I wouldn't be able to share it.

198
00:12:23,951 --> 00:12:25,245
Not without Bradley's permission.

199
00:12:26,580 --> 00:12:30,750
I think, given the circumstances,
she might make an exception.

200
00:12:31,501 --> 00:12:33,711
Well, uh, nothing came through, you know.

201
00:12:33,794 --> 00:12:37,048
There was the, uh, video from the airport

202
00:12:37,131 --> 00:12:40,259
that went to the cloud
but that-that's… that's it.

203
00:12:41,302 --> 00:12:42,303
Sure.

204
00:12:43,596 --> 00:12:45,849
Just let us know
if you think of anything else.

205
00:12:45,932 --> 00:12:47,350
Absolutely. I will.

206
00:12:48,309 --> 00:12:50,312
[elevator dings]

207
00:13:15,379 --> 00:13:17,880
[people chattering]

208
00:13:40,736 --> 00:13:41,738
- Hey.
- Hey.

209
00:13:41,822 --> 00:13:42,822
What are you doing?

210
00:13:42,905 --> 00:13:46,284
Uh, Bradley asked me to come by
to just, uh, grab some stuff for her, so…

211
00:13:46,368 --> 00:13:47,786
- Oh. Great. You talked to her.
- Yeah.

212
00:13:47,870 --> 00:13:49,288
- She's feeling better?
- Uh, yeah.

213
00:13:49,370 --> 00:13:50,956
Yeah, I mean,
she's not out of the woods yet,

214
00:13:51,038 --> 00:13:53,000
but she's… you know, she's getting there.

215
00:13:55,043 --> 00:13:56,919
- [chuckles]
- What… What's up?

216
00:13:57,921 --> 00:14:00,131
I don't know. I'm just wondering
why, if Bradley is sick,

217
00:14:00,215 --> 00:14:03,092
people keep coming around here
digging through her dressing room?

218
00:14:03,177 --> 00:14:05,345
Peop… What? Like Celine's people?

219
00:14:06,053 --> 00:14:08,014
I don't know. Maybe.

220
00:14:08,097 --> 00:14:09,474
Yeah, yeah.

221
00:14:11,309 --> 00:14:13,854
What do you, uh, think of her?

222
00:14:14,395 --> 00:14:16,190
- Celine?
- Yeah.

223
00:14:16,815 --> 00:14:17,816
Uh…

224
00:14:20,277 --> 00:14:22,111
Wouldn't wanna get on her bad side.

225
00:14:23,404 --> 00:14:25,240
Yeah, I'm starting to feel the same way.

226
00:14:27,533 --> 00:14:30,120
Anyway, I should probably get going.
It's good seeing you.

227
00:14:30,203 --> 00:14:31,746
- Yeah, it's been… Well…
- Uh… yeah.

228
00:14:33,373 --> 00:14:34,540
Bradley's not sick.

229
00:14:34,625 --> 00:14:35,834
What's going on, Chip?

230
00:14:37,793 --> 00:14:39,629
I don't… I don't know what you mean.

231
00:14:39,712 --> 00:14:41,130
Okay.
Well, then maybe I'll go up to Celine

232
00:14:41,215 --> 00:14:43,591
and tell her that I found you
digging around in Bradley's dressing room.

233
00:14:43,674 --> 00:14:44,927
Yeah, you wouldn't do that.

234
00:14:45,009 --> 00:14:47,386
I just leveraged
the Head of News for a pod deal.

235
00:14:47,471 --> 00:14:49,514
My villain era is in full swing.

236
00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:52,183
So?

237
00:14:56,355 --> 00:14:57,605
[phone buzzing]

238
00:14:58,356 --> 00:14:59,524

[grunts]

241
00:15:13,705 --> 00:15:15,331
Cory Ellison's office.

242
00:15:15,414 --> 00:15:17,250
[Celine] Did you just wake up?

243
00:15:17,333 --> 00:15:21,963
[grunts] Well, I felt winter coming,
so I thought I'd try hibernating.

244
00:15:22,047 --> 00:15:23,130
It didn't work.

245
00:15:23,215 --> 00:15:24,924
I don't know how the bears do it.

246
00:15:25,008 --> 00:15:26,677
Ah, no more cocaine for you.

247
00:15:26,759 --> 00:15:30,847
Aw. That was the best part of my week.

248
00:15:31,807 --> 00:15:33,933
Has anyone come to check on you?

249
00:15:34,976 --> 00:15:37,479
Have you heard from any friends?

250
00:15:38,230 --> 00:15:39,273
Just you.

251
00:15:40,231 --> 00:15:43,610
Nice to hear another voice.

252
00:15:44,695 --> 00:15:45,696
[clicks tongue]

253
00:15:46,864 --> 00:15:48,907
You were funny the other night.

254
00:15:48,990 --> 00:15:50,366
[chuckles]

255
00:15:51,033 --> 00:15:53,245
And you were fun. Thanks.

256
00:15:53,327 --> 00:15:55,538
Are you feeling any better?

257
00:15:56,373 --> 00:15:58,000
Not sure I'm feeling anything.

258
00:15:58,082 --> 00:16:00,668
You shouldn't be alone. Not now.

259
00:16:00,751 --> 00:16:03,462
Well, then I should've made
different life choices.

260
00:16:03,547 --> 00:16:05,215
Ugh. Fuck.

261
00:16:06,633 --> 00:16:08,134
Self-pity.

262
00:16:08,217 --> 00:16:10,386
The least interesting of all the pities.

263
00:16:10,470 --> 00:16:12,806
Don't be so hard on yourself.

264
00:16:13,974 --> 00:16:15,433
You're mourning.

265
00:16:15,517 --> 00:16:17,936
It's funny, though, you know.
I was with her.

266
00:16:18,019 --> 00:16:19,020
I was there.

267
00:16:19,104 --> 00:16:21,856
And… I still don't really believe it.

268
00:16:22,774 --> 00:16:25,027
Her lawyer dropped by a box of shit,

269
00:16:25,110 --> 00:16:26,778
and he was all solemn and,

270
00:16:27,403 --> 00:16:30,323
"Mr. Ellison, I'm sorry for your loss.
She was a good woman."

271
00:16:30,407 --> 00:16:32,743
And I thought, "Who in the fuck
is he talking about?

272
00:16:32,826 --> 00:16:35,495
My mom is in Greenwich.
She's fine. She's doing…"

273
00:16:35,578 --> 00:16:37,038
I'm coming over.

274
00:16:38,164 --> 00:16:39,790
Hey. You don't have to do that.

275
00:16:39,875 --> 00:16:41,293
I'll bring you dinner.

276
00:16:41,375 --> 00:16:44,046
You can talk about her
till you're green in the face.

277
00:16:44,129 --> 00:16:45,297
Blue.

278
00:16:46,881 --> 00:16:48,174
Blue in the face.

279
00:16:48,258 --> 00:16:49,842
Yeah. Blue.

280
00:16:53,764 --> 00:16:55,097

- [door opens]

282
00:17:08,237 --> 00:17:09,363
Hey.

283
00:17:09,444 --> 00:17:12,950
I just found a document
in the reports that Bradley sent.

284
00:17:13,031 --> 00:17:14,785
And one of them is from Wolf River.

285
00:17:18,453 --> 00:17:20,332
- Chip?
- Just roll with me.

286
00:17:21,124 --> 00:17:22,875
André is four hours outside of Minsk.

287
00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:25,252
He'll help with Bradley
as soon as he's on the ground.

288
00:17:27,172 --> 00:17:28,507
I know everything.

289
00:17:29,715 --> 00:17:31,093
Well, you got me beat.

290
00:17:31,175 --> 00:17:32,469
[phone buzzes]

291
00:17:33,135 --> 00:17:34,637
Uh… One second.

292
00:17:35,346 --> 00:17:36,722
Hey. What do you got for me?

293
00:17:38,767 --> 00:17:39,977
Can we please talk?

294
00:17:40,477 --> 00:17:43,145
I should've made sure
you got Head of News like I promised.

295
00:17:43,230 --> 00:17:44,230
[Mia] So why didn't you?

296
00:17:44,314 --> 00:17:48,734
Because I was focused
on advertising dollars and sponsors

297
00:17:48,818 --> 00:17:53,448
and proving that I could do this executive
job that I fought so hard to get.

298
00:17:53,531 --> 00:17:54,740
And…

299
00:17:55,325 --> 00:17:56,660
I'm just so sorry.

300
00:17:56,742 --> 00:17:58,161
Well, you should be.

301
00:18:03,250 --> 00:18:04,334
But…

302
00:18:05,794 --> 00:18:07,461
- thank you.
- [phone buzzes]

303
00:18:11,424 --> 00:18:12,425
Hello?

304
00:18:12,509 --> 00:18:14,051
I talked to Ivanov.

305
00:18:15,261 --> 00:18:16,721
We're going to the opera.

306
00:18:17,306 --> 00:18:18,640
[gasps]

307
00:18:18,723 --> 00:18:21,643
[Paul] Dmitri Ivanov almost
closed a deal with a friend of mine,

308
00:18:21,727 --> 00:18:24,104
but he was sanctioned
before it went through.

309
00:18:24,188 --> 00:18:28,525
He's a piece of work,
but he has real influence in Minsk.

310
00:18:28,608 --> 00:18:30,611
And he has two soft spots…

311
00:18:31,653 --> 00:18:34,405
his Russian mistress and Puccini.

312
00:18:35,031 --> 00:18:36,240
As it so happens,

313
00:18:36,325 --> 00:18:39,786
an acclaimed soprano is doing
a series of recitals here in New York.

314
00:18:39,869 --> 00:18:43,539
I've arranged to fly him in
as my guest for the night.

315
00:18:43,624 --> 00:18:45,541
I'll make introductions during the concert

00:18:45,625 --> 00:18:48,295
and then
you can talk to him about Bradley.

317
00:18:48,878 --> 00:18:50,838
[Alex] What does he want in exchange?

318
00:18:50,923 --> 00:18:53,049
[Paul] His mistress Nadzeya is an actress

319
00:18:53,133 --> 00:18:55,510
whose series
has been put on indefinite hiatus

320
00:18:55,594 --> 00:18:57,429
because of the situation in Ukraine.

321
00:18:58,346 --> 00:19:00,265
Maybe you can be of some help.

322
00:19:00,348 --> 00:19:03,268
With any luck, he'll make some calls,
talk to his friends in the government,

323
00:19:03,352 --> 00:19:05,436
and we can start working on a solution.

324
00:19:06,563 --> 00:19:09,482
Obviously,
no one can know we're doing this.

325
00:19:10,067 --> 00:19:13,403
We'll arrive separately,
keep as little contact as possible.

326
00:19:13,945 --> 00:19:15,948
And you should bring a date.

327
00:19:24,373 --> 00:19:25,457
[Mia sighs] Okay.

328
00:19:25,540 --> 00:19:28,210
André's at Minsk airport,
ready and waiting.

329
00:19:28,292 --> 00:19:29,377
[Alex] Okay.

330
00:19:29,461 --> 00:19:30,711
You all right?

331
00:19:31,462 --> 00:19:32,588
I'm a little nervous.

332
00:19:32,673 --> 00:19:34,132
I don't see why.

333
00:19:34,758 --> 00:19:37,385
It-It's just a secret rendezvous
with my ex-boyfriend,

334
00:19:37,469 --> 00:19:39,762
making a deal with a sanctioned oligarch,

335
00:19:40,346 --> 00:19:43,851
trying to keep our friend from being
thrown indefinitely into a foreign prison.

336
00:19:43,933 --> 00:19:45,644
Well, when you say it like that.

337
00:19:45,727 --> 00:19:47,938
- No big deal. [chuckles]
- [chuckles]

338
00:19:48,020 --> 00:19:50,022
[gentle music plays]

339
00:19:52,358 --> 00:19:55,528
[announcer] Ladies and gentlemen,
welcome to this evening's performance.

340
00:19:55,612 --> 00:19:58,990
We kindly ask you to take your seats.
The show will begin shortly.

341
00:19:59,074 --> 00:20:00,157
[Alex] There he is.

342
00:20:05,830 --> 00:20:07,207
Where's Ivanov?

343
00:20:14,839 --> 00:20:16,842
[opera singer singing]

344
00:21:02,679 --> 00:21:05,140
[singing continues]

345
00:21:19,403 --> 00:21:22,199
What is going on with you and Miles?

346
00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:24,284
[Celine scoffs]

347
00:21:24,367 --> 00:21:28,079
[chuckles] You mean are we still together?

348
00:21:28,663 --> 00:21:30,457
Well, yeah. But I mean…

349
00:21:31,165 --> 00:21:36,838
I've always just wondered
what it is about him for you.

350
00:21:37,839 --> 00:21:39,423
'Cause you could have anyone.

351
00:21:40,217 --> 00:21:41,218
[chuckles]

352
00:21:42,094 --> 00:21:44,011
- Could I?
- Um…

353
00:21:44,096 --> 00:21:45,596
[jazz music playing]

354
00:21:47,307 --> 00:21:49,101
Why do you ask?

355
00:21:50,935 --> 00:21:52,019
I'm curious.

356
00:21:52,645 --> 00:21:53,896
- Really?
- Mm-hmm.

357
00:21:55,398 --> 00:21:56,525
Um…

358
00:21:58,693 --> 00:22:01,195
There's something that ties us together.

359
00:22:02,446 --> 00:22:05,867
Even when we're apart,
even when he breaks me.

360
00:22:07,743 --> 00:22:09,579
I try to hate him.

361
00:22:09,663 --> 00:22:11,664
I try to let him go.

362
00:22:12,708 --> 00:22:17,211
But I can't because I'm weak.

363
00:22:19,088 --> 00:22:21,465
And… [sighs]

364
00:22:22,509 --> 00:22:24,760
[chuckles] I don't want to be alone.

365
00:22:27,556 --> 00:22:29,182
I think if it was me,

366
00:22:30,976 --> 00:22:32,810
I wouldn't have gone behind your back.

367
00:22:34,270 --> 00:22:40,109
I think I would've done
everything in my power to keep you.

368
00:22:42,528 --> 00:22:43,779
[chuckles]

369
00:22:47,366 --> 00:22:48,911
But you never made a move.

370
00:22:50,578 --> 00:22:54,583
In Los Angeles I could feel you circling.

371
00:22:55,291 --> 00:22:56,667
Getting closer.

372
00:22:57,376 --> 00:23:01,173
But every time I looked, you stepped back.

373
00:23:02,924 --> 00:23:05,928
Did you ever imagine that?
What it would be like, you and me?

374
00:23:09,263 --> 00:23:11,307
It's crossed my mind.

375
00:23:12,017 --> 00:23:13,227
Me too.

376
00:23:17,772 --> 00:23:18,773
[sighs]

377
00:23:18,856 --> 00:23:24,695
Um… [clears throat] When you imagine it,
what… what do you see?

378
00:23:26,865 --> 00:23:28,325
We're in bed.

379
00:23:28,951 --> 00:23:30,076
We never leave.

380
00:23:31,452 --> 00:23:33,288
We stay there day and night.

381
00:23:34,748 --> 00:23:37,041
And we fuck until we die of thirst.

382
00:23:56,686 --> 00:23:58,188
[both moaning]

383
00:24:02,108 --> 00:24:03,442
[phone buzzing]

384
00:24:06,571 --> 00:24:08,198
- [Cory groaning]
- [Celine panting]

385
00:24:09,365 --> 00:24:11,076
Michael, hey. Hi.

386
00:24:11,617 --> 00:24:12,618
[grunts]

387
00:24:13,537 --> 00:24:14,538
Yeah?

388
00:24:15,538 --> 00:24:17,583
White. They have to be white.
They have to be white.

389
00:24:18,250 --> 00:24:21,002
No, there has to be 200.
That's what she wanted.

390
00:24:22,336 --> 00:24:26,008
Well, if she already ordered them,
then why in the fuck did you just call me?

391
00:24:29,135 --> 00:24:31,471
My mom's florist. She planned everything.

392
00:24:31,555 --> 00:24:34,182
I'm a fucking producer
and I've got nothing to produce.

393
00:24:35,057 --> 00:24:36,727
- Cory.
- Yeah?

394
00:24:36,809 --> 00:24:37,935
It's okay.

395
00:24:38,019 --> 00:24:39,313
No, no, I'm fine. I…

396
00:24:39,813 --> 00:24:41,731
Really. It's okay. [chuckles]

397
00:24:49,698 --> 00:24:52,201
[chuckling]

398
00:24:56,663 --> 00:24:59,165
Oh, my head. [sniffles]

399
00:25:02,502 --> 00:25:03,503
[sniffles]

400
00:25:04,003 --> 00:25:05,255
She was alone.

401
00:25:06,589 --> 00:25:09,300
She was alone in her house
the last days of her life.

402
00:25:11,636 --> 00:25:14,890
And I was on a fucking movie set
playing make-believe.

403
00:25:14,972 --> 00:25:16,933
She wanted that for you.

404
00:25:17,433 --> 00:25:19,310
She wanted you to have everything.

405
00:25:19,394 --> 00:25:20,938
I don't know what she wanted.

406
00:25:21,771 --> 00:25:24,191
And I'll never get a chance to ask.

407
00:25:24,273 --> 00:25:26,484
All I have left is a fucking box.

408
00:25:26,567 --> 00:25:27,693
[sniffles]

409
00:25:27,778 --> 00:25:30,905
Totems for the sarcophagus.

410
00:25:35,786 --> 00:25:37,621
Do you want to look through it?

411
00:25:39,205 --> 00:25:40,749
We can do it together.

412
00:25:40,832 --> 00:25:42,584
[opera singer continues]

413
00:26:00,853 --> 00:26:01,854
[music stops]

414
00:26:01,936 --> 00:26:03,896
[crowd applauding, cheering]

415
00:26:14,407 --> 00:26:15,576
There they are.

416
00:26:16,660 --> 00:26:18,077
All right. Let's go.

417
00:26:18,161 --> 00:26:19,328
Yep. Let's go.

418
00:26:21,038 --> 00:26:22,624
- Thank you.
- It's great to see you again.

419
00:26:22,708 --> 00:26:24,250
[people chattering]

420
00:26:28,755 --> 00:26:29,923
Paul.

421
00:26:31,133 --> 00:26:32,718
- [Paul] Alex.
- Hey.

422
00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:35,470
- You remember Mia Jordan?
- [Paul] Of course. Hey. How are you?

423
00:26:35,554 --> 00:26:37,013
- Ready to do this?
- [Paul] All right.

424
00:26:37,096 --> 00:26:39,766
Uh, well, they're just waiting inside.

425
00:26:39,849 --> 00:26:40,933
- Let's go.
- All right.

426
00:26:41,018 --> 00:26:42,560
[Paul] Uh, Dmitri, Nadzeya.

427
00:26:42,644 --> 00:26:46,522
Uh, allow me to introduce Alex Levy
and her colleague Mia Jordan.

428
00:26:46,606 --> 00:26:48,192
- Hi.
- It's a pleasure.

429
00:26:48,275 --> 00:26:50,359
We have a great appreciation
for your work.

430
00:26:50,443 --> 00:26:52,778
Oh, that's very kind. Likewise.

431
00:26:52,863 --> 00:26:55,615
And we saw your show, Nadzeya.
It was very compelling.

432
00:26:55,699 --> 00:26:57,326
The romance and the scale.

433
00:26:57,409 --> 00:26:59,994
It's big, it's bold,
it's what everyone wants to see.

434
00:27:00,077 --> 00:27:01,872
That is very kind of you.

435
00:27:01,954 --> 00:27:04,415
Mia's one of our biggest
producers at the network.

436
00:27:04,499 --> 00:27:06,125
And I have some great ideas.

437
00:27:06,210 --> 00:27:08,211
I would love to talk to you
about it if you have a moment?

438
00:27:08,295 --> 00:27:10,087
Or I can just tell you
all my favorite scenes.

439
00:27:10,172 --> 00:27:11,589
- [Mia chuckles]
- [chuckles] Please.

440
00:27:11,673 --> 00:27:14,092
- Why don't we step outside for a second?
- Yes. Of course.

441
00:27:14,175 --> 00:27:15,760
- Thank you.
- [Ivanov, Nadzeya chatter]

442
00:27:17,429 --> 00:27:18,763
[Ivanov] Ah, she is so happy.

443
00:27:18,846 --> 00:27:21,517
But, you know, sometimes I feel like
she cares more for her work

444
00:27:21,599 --> 00:27:22,683
than she does for me.

445
00:27:22,768 --> 00:27:24,019
[chuckles] I know the feeling.

446
00:27:24,102 --> 00:27:26,771
Where is your lovely girlfriend tonight?

447
00:27:27,605 --> 00:27:31,067
Is she, uh, still saving the earth
from all the ravages of capitalism?

448
00:27:31,151 --> 00:27:33,319
[chuckles] I wouldn't know. Uh…

449
00:27:33,945 --> 00:27:35,404
We're no longer together.

450
00:27:35,489 --> 00:27:40,410
Oh. Well, uh, things change
so quickly, don't they?

451
00:27:40,493 --> 00:27:42,119
Well, I'm glad you called me.

452
00:27:42,203 --> 00:27:46,541
It was getting a bit cold out there,
being cut off from all the action, huh?

453
00:27:46,625 --> 00:27:49,670
- But, uh, you had a favor to ask.
- [Alex] Yes.

454
00:27:49,752 --> 00:27:51,712
I have a friend in Minsk.

455
00:27:51,797 --> 00:27:54,215
And she's, uh, an American journalist.

456
00:27:54,298 --> 00:27:57,219
And there's been
a slight misunderstanding.

457
00:27:57,301 --> 00:27:59,555
And she's stuck at an airport.

458
00:27:59,637 --> 00:28:03,474
No charges have been filed yet,
but we would really like

459
00:28:03,558 --> 00:28:08,020
to get her out of there before they decide
to make things more difficult.

460
00:28:08,105 --> 00:28:11,107
She doesn't have any ties to Belarus.

461
00:28:11,191 --> 00:28:13,734
She's just a TV anchor chasing a story.

462
00:28:13,818 --> 00:28:15,153
Mm-hmm.

463
00:28:15,237 --> 00:28:20,491
And you want… what?
You want me to negotiate her release?

464
00:28:20,576 --> 00:28:23,871
We would be really,
really appreciative if you could…

465
00:28:23,953 --> 00:28:25,122
if you would help us.

466
00:28:25,204 --> 00:28:28,291
All she has to do is walk down
a hallway and get on a plane.

467
00:28:29,459 --> 00:28:30,544
That is not possible.

468
00:28:30,626 --> 00:28:32,587
Dmitri, all we're asking you to do
is make a phone call.

469
00:28:32,671 --> 00:28:35,257
In the middle of the night? To the regime?

470
00:28:35,883 --> 00:28:36,884
[Paul sighs]

471
00:28:36,967 --> 00:28:38,594
That… What do you think is gonna happen?

472
00:28:38,676 --> 00:28:41,180
They're gonna grant your wish
and she's gonna come home?

473
00:28:41,805 --> 00:28:43,640
No. That… That's not how it works. That…

474
00:28:43,723 --> 00:28:46,101
It's a lot of calls. It's a lot of favors.

475
00:28:49,313 --> 00:28:50,314
I'm sorry.

476
00:28:50,396 --> 00:28:52,523
[Paul stammers]
Uh, Dmitri, can you… [sighs]

477
00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:54,401
What…

478
00:28:55,318 --> 00:28:58,322
- What was that?
- Yeah, just… Give me a sec.

479
00:28:58,404 --> 00:29:00,449
Let me… Let me…
Let me work on it and I'll…

480
00:29:00,531 --> 00:29:03,326
- Oh, God. Okay.
- All right. I'll, uh…

481
00:29:03,410 --> 00:29:04,912
[Ivanov, in Russian]
There's a problem with the deal…

482
00:29:04,994 --> 00:29:06,496
Then why did you bring me all this way?

483
00:29:06,579 --> 00:29:09,958
I'm the one at risk.

484
00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:13,127
[in English]
Uh, Mia, would you terribly mind, um…

485
00:29:13,211 --> 00:29:15,047
- Oh, of course.
- …giving us a few minutes?

486
00:29:17,007 --> 00:29:18,090
Thank you.

487
00:29:18,634 --> 00:29:20,719
[in Russian] If the Feds know I'm here,

488
00:29:20,801 --> 00:29:22,136
you and I are going to have a big problem.

489
00:29:22,221 --> 00:29:23,221
We should leave?

490
00:29:23,305 --> 00:29:25,265
Not quite yet.

491
00:29:25,348 --> 00:29:28,519
He has more to offer than a TV show…

492
00:29:29,019 --> 00:29:30,103
Really?

493
00:29:30,186 --> 00:29:32,146
What about my show? You promised me.

494
00:29:32,230 --> 00:29:33,856
- Babe…
- Get off me!

495
00:29:33,941 --> 00:29:36,527
- [Ivanov speaking Russian]
- Get off me!

496
00:29:37,277 --> 00:29:38,694
Stop touching me!

497
00:29:41,114 --> 00:29:42,281
[Alex sighs]

498
00:29:44,492 --> 00:29:46,202
[huffs, speaks English] Unbelievable.

499
00:29:46,286 --> 00:29:48,079
He said it's not possible.
He's not gonna help us.

500
00:29:48,163 --> 00:29:50,332
- He'll do it. He'll do it.
- I just spoke to him.

501
00:29:50,414 --> 00:29:51,415
He can make a call.

502
00:29:51,500 --> 00:29:54,627
He just needs something more
than a TV show for his side piece.

503
00:29:54,711 --> 00:29:56,212
[Alex] How do you know that?

504
00:29:56,296 --> 00:29:58,423
'Cause I just heard him fucking say it.

505
00:30:05,888 --> 00:30:07,140
- Senator. Hi.
- Hi.

506
00:30:07,223 --> 00:30:08,558
- What?
- Come with me.

507
00:30:09,351 --> 00:30:11,394
- Where are we going?
- Okay, okay. Um…

508
00:30:11,478 --> 00:30:12,645
[announcer speaking]

509
00:30:12,729 --> 00:30:15,440
- Hello. Good evening.
- Come here. Come here.

510
00:30:15,523 --> 00:30:17,776
Where are we going, Alex?
What is happening?

511
00:30:17,859 --> 00:30:19,361
Alex, what is going on?

512
00:30:19,443 --> 00:30:22,573
Okay. Your friend… Your friend
that was making the deal with Ivanov,

513
00:30:22,655 --> 00:30:25,491
the one that fell through,
what was Ivanov after?

514
00:30:25,576 --> 00:30:27,076
Was it some kind of tech?

515
00:30:27,160 --> 00:30:28,161
[sighs]

516
00:30:28,244 --> 00:30:29,538
AI software.

517
00:30:30,329 --> 00:30:32,124
My friend is a direct
competitor in the space.

518
00:30:32,207 --> 00:30:34,542
We're both developing…
[stammers] …language protocols

519
00:30:34,625 --> 00:30:36,086
that can transform generative speech.

520
00:30:36,170 --> 00:30:40,507
Okay. Well, Mia just overheard
him talking to his girlfriend

521
00:30:40,590 --> 00:30:42,718
and he will make the call to Minsk.

522
00:30:42,800 --> 00:30:44,760
He just wants more out of the deal.

523
00:30:44,845 --> 00:30:46,721
And maybe it's your software.

524
00:30:47,263 --> 00:30:49,016
Maybe that's what
he thought we were offering him.

525
00:30:49,098 --> 00:30:51,434
After he's been sanctioned
by the United States treasury?

526
00:30:51,518 --> 00:30:54,020
I don't… I… [chuckles]
He knows I would never do that.

527
00:30:54,104 --> 00:30:55,314
Oh, fuck.

528
00:30:56,272 --> 00:30:58,983
Bradley has 12 hours before
she gets charged with some bullshit.

529
00:30:59,067 --> 00:31:02,028
And shipped… I don't know fucking where.

530
00:31:02,112 --> 00:31:05,656
[inhales sharply] There's gotta be
something that we can do, you know.

531
00:31:06,700 --> 00:31:07,784
[sighs]

532
00:31:08,701 --> 00:31:11,329
What if I give him the software?
It's a little crazy but--

533
00:31:11,413 --> 00:31:13,498
You can't give away
something that you don't have.

534
00:31:13,582 --> 00:31:15,834
Wait. Hold on though.

535
00:31:17,376 --> 00:31:20,380
UBN's AI initiative completely stalled.

536
00:31:21,298 --> 00:31:24,675
I could license your software
through the network.

537
00:31:25,510 --> 00:31:28,971
And then I could… I could get it to Ivanov
and your hands are completely clean.

538
00:31:29,056 --> 00:31:30,516
I am not gonna let you do that.

539
00:31:30,598 --> 00:31:32,893
There's a million different ways
that could blow up in your face.

540
00:31:32,976 --> 00:31:37,064
Oh, but with our European platforms,
and the Olympics, there's gotta be a way

541
00:31:37,146 --> 00:31:39,525
I can get it to him
without there being a digital footprint.

542
00:31:39,607 --> 00:31:42,861
If the Feds found out about this,
we would both be supremely fucked.

543
00:31:43,569 --> 00:31:44,947
I know. I know.

544
00:31:46,155 --> 00:31:48,450
I know. But we just… Can we please try?

545
00:31:49,242 --> 00:31:50,618
We're so close.

546
00:32:00,253 --> 00:32:01,337
I'll talk to him.

547
00:32:04,090 --> 00:32:05,092
[sighs]

548
00:32:05,592 --> 00:32:06,634
Thank you.

549
00:32:14,852 --> 00:32:17,855
We are licensing our AI software to UBN.

550
00:32:18,980 --> 00:32:21,942
Once Bradley's released,
Alex will get it to Ivanov.

551
00:32:22,025 --> 00:32:25,903
So you wanna launder a tech deal
through your ex-girlfriend?

552
00:32:26,779 --> 00:32:30,116
Wow. I did not have that on my bingo card.

553
00:32:30,200 --> 00:32:31,410
It won't touch us.

554
00:32:31,492 --> 00:32:32,786
What's the endgame here?

555
00:32:32,869 --> 00:32:34,288
Run off with Alex?

556
00:32:34,371 --> 00:32:36,498
Boar hunting with Vladimir Putin?

557
00:32:36,582 --> 00:32:39,750
Look, I am trying
to put my life back together here, okay?

558
00:32:39,835 --> 00:32:44,798
There's a karmic debt that needs to be
repaid and it is collecting interest.

559
00:32:44,882 --> 00:32:48,134
You know you're the only man
I've ever met who impressed me.

560
00:32:48,676 --> 00:32:51,512
But when you're around her, you lose it.

561
00:32:51,596 --> 00:32:54,849
You have all the power in the world
and you still can't let her go.

562
00:32:55,601 --> 00:32:57,644
Maybe that's true, but we're doing this.

563
00:32:58,729 --> 00:32:59,730
[sighs]

564
00:33:00,396 --> 00:33:01,565
I'll make some calls.

565
00:33:09,530 --> 00:33:11,616
[Cory chuckles] This was my dad's.

566
00:33:12,867 --> 00:33:15,369
I thought my mom got rid of all his stuff.

567
00:33:15,453 --> 00:33:18,373
Maybe it's some kind of peace offering.

568
00:33:21,335 --> 00:33:23,921
I always thought she was hard on me
because of him.

569
00:33:24,003 --> 00:33:28,509
'Cause we look the same and she was
afraid that I was gonna leave her too.

570
00:33:32,095 --> 00:33:36,349
But she was just giving me the tools,
teaching me to survive.

571
00:33:36,933 --> 00:33:38,143
[chuckles]

572
00:33:43,648 --> 00:33:45,067
[Cory] I'm the last one left.

573
00:33:46,192 --> 00:33:47,486
End of the line.

574
00:33:48,069 --> 00:33:49,904
Well, I'll join them soon enough.

575
00:33:49,988 --> 00:33:51,198
Just a matter of time.

576
00:33:51,698 --> 00:33:54,159
Then let's… let's not waste it.

577
00:34:03,626 --> 00:34:05,045
I'm gonna be right back.

578
00:34:12,594 --> 00:34:13,637
[door closes]

579
00:34:26,858 --> 00:34:28,193
[phone buzzing]

580
00:34:30,945 --> 00:34:32,155
Hey. Where are we?

581
00:34:32,239 --> 00:34:34,074
It's happening. It's happening.

582
00:34:34,157 --> 00:34:39,746
Tell André to go to the drop-off point
and to call you the minute he has Bradley.

583
00:34:40,746 --> 00:34:42,583
Uh… [chuckles] I'm in awe.

584
00:34:43,416 --> 00:34:44,876
Okay. I gotta go.

585
00:34:44,960 --> 00:34:47,588
Okay. Hopefully the next time
I call you it'll be with Bradley.

586
00:34:47,670 --> 00:34:49,755
I know. I'll be waiting. I'm waiting.

587
00:34:50,423 --> 00:34:51,675
[sighs]

588
00:35:04,271 --> 00:35:05,271
[sighs]

589
00:35:05,898 --> 00:35:06,981
[phone buzzes]

590
00:35:19,911 --> 00:35:22,164
I'm sorry, Cory. I'll have to leave you.

591
00:35:22,956 --> 00:35:24,373
- Oh.
- Family matter.

592
00:35:25,083 --> 00:35:27,085
Okay. All right. Well…

593
00:35:28,836 --> 00:35:31,130
Uh, to be continued?

594
00:35:32,257 --> 00:35:33,759
I'd like that.

595
00:35:36,010 --> 00:35:37,429
[chuckles]

596
00:35:52,277 --> 00:35:54,278
[opera singer continues singing]

597
00:37:32,920 --> 00:37:34,295
Okay.

598
00:37:37,548 --> 00:37:38,634
[phone buzzes]

599
00:37:41,010 --> 00:37:42,012
Bradley?

600
00:37:45,516 --> 00:37:46,557
Bradley?

601
00:37:47,809 --> 00:37:49,978
Honey, are you there?

602
00:37:52,271 --> 00:37:53,481
Honey, just say something.

603
00:37:53,565 --> 00:37:55,400
Just say anything so I know you're okay.

604
00:37:57,945 --> 00:37:59,695
I'm sorry, uh…

605
00:38:01,197 --> 00:38:02,615
I-It didn't work.

606
00:38:02,699 --> 00:38:04,201
[breathes heavily]

607
00:38:04,826 --> 00:38:06,911
What do you…
What do you mean it didn't work?

608
00:38:07,538 --> 00:38:08,539
Chip?

609
00:38:12,708 --> 00:38:16,797
The trade fell through
and they won't release her.

610
00:38:17,965 --> 00:38:19,132
She's gone.

611
00:38:21,260 --> 00:38:22,469
[gasps]

612
00:38:37,775 --> 00:38:40,278
[sighs] Paul, thank you for this.
We have to go.

613
00:38:41,280 --> 00:38:42,655
[stammers] Are we good?

614
00:38:44,907 --> 00:38:46,076
Dmitri.

615
00:38:47,494 --> 00:38:49,996
[crowd cheering]

616
00:38:53,125 --> 00:38:55,626
[cheering continues]

617
00:39:01,717 --> 00:39:02,967
Excuse me. Excuse me.

618
00:39:05,304 --> 00:39:07,181
What just happened? They just left.

619
00:39:07,264 --> 00:39:08,389
Something went wrong.

620
00:39:09,182 --> 00:39:10,934
They moved her from the airport.

621
00:39:11,018 --> 00:39:12,853
[stammers] I don't understand. What…

622
00:39:12,936 --> 00:39:15,355
I don't know. I don't know.

623
00:39:16,898 --> 00:39:18,567
I, um… I have to go.

624
00:39:18,650 --> 00:39:20,068
If-If you hear anything, just please--

625
00:39:20,152 --> 00:39:21,903
- [stammers] I'll let you know.
- Okay.

626
00:39:45,677 --> 00:39:46,969
[sighs]

627
00:39:49,972 --> 00:39:51,391
What do we do now?

628
00:39:53,434 --> 00:39:54,936
I don't know.

629
00:39:57,523 --> 00:39:59,065
[Ben] The truth is dangerous.

630
00:39:59,733 --> 00:40:02,568
And what we do here matters.

631
00:40:02,652 --> 00:40:09,534
And no amount of artificial intelligence
or social media can replace that.

632
00:40:10,159 --> 00:40:15,331
When a journalist is imprisoned,
it's because someone wants them silenced.

633
00:40:15,414 --> 00:40:17,083
We will not let that happen to Bradley.

634
00:40:17,166 --> 00:40:20,086
We will keep this story on the air
for as long as it takes.

635
00:40:20,170 --> 00:40:22,047
This is day one.

636
00:40:23,257 --> 00:40:26,717
We don't stop reporting
until she comes home.

637
00:40:28,177 --> 00:40:29,471
Let's go make a show.

638
00:40:35,101 --> 00:40:37,563
So folks, before we start the show,
uh, there's something

639
00:40:37,646 --> 00:40:39,481
that-that Chris and I have to talk about.

640
00:40:39,565 --> 00:40:42,025
[stammers]
It's a news story that affects all of us,

641
00:40:42,108 --> 00:40:44,610
but particularly those of us here
in the UBN family.

642
00:40:45,403 --> 00:40:49,032
Earlier this week our cohost,
Bradley Jackson, traveled to Belarus

643
00:40:49,115 --> 00:40:51,201
to do research for a story.

644
00:40:51,284 --> 00:40:54,288
And while she was at the Minsk airport,
she was detained by the authorities.

645
00:40:54,371 --> 00:40:58,250
Now, despite attempts by the US
State Department to secure her release,

646
00:40:58,333 --> 00:41:01,753
Bradley is being charged with
conspiracy against the state of Belarus.

647
00:41:01,836 --> 00:41:06,132
UBN rejects all claims that
Bradley was working as a foreign agent.

648
00:41:06,215 --> 00:41:10,554
These charges are false and we have
full faith that she will be exonerated.

649
00:41:11,179 --> 00:41:12,264
[phone buzzes]

650
00:41:13,139 --> 00:41:14,557
[Amanda] Are we good?

651
00:41:15,266 --> 00:41:17,936
The State Department
has no idea what they tried to do.

652
00:41:18,019 --> 00:41:20,313
He put me in an impossible position.

653
00:41:20,898 --> 00:41:24,067
You had to protect Paul.
I had to protect Alex.

654
00:41:24,735 --> 00:41:26,652
What's my level of exposure?

655
00:41:26,737 --> 00:41:30,282
My family made the call to stop the trade.

656
00:41:30,364 --> 00:41:33,659
All through intermediaries.
It won't blow back on you.

657
00:41:34,577 --> 00:41:36,496
And what happens with Bradley Jackson?

658
00:41:37,121 --> 00:41:39,958
This is a government negotiation.

659
00:41:40,041 --> 00:41:42,878
I'm… I have faith she will be returned.

660
00:41:42,960 --> 00:41:45,172
Yeah. I guess we'll see.

661
00:41:45,838 --> 00:41:48,217
Yes. We will see.

662
00:41:56,474 --> 00:41:57,976
[in French] An exciting news day.

663
00:41:58,059 --> 00:41:59,143
Leave it.

664
00:41:59,894 --> 00:42:01,063
[sibling] Of course.

665
00:42:01,896 --> 00:42:03,690
You want me to clean up your mess

666
00:42:03,773 --> 00:42:05,275
and be on my way.

667
00:42:05,358 --> 00:42:08,653
You could show more gratitude
for my help with Minsk.

668
00:42:08,737 --> 00:42:09,947
Thanks for your help.

669
00:42:10,030 --> 00:42:11,322
You're welcome.

670
00:42:11,405 --> 00:42:13,282
I know you think it should be you.

671
00:42:13,367 --> 00:42:17,329
That you should be the one to run things.

672
00:42:17,411 --> 00:42:19,164
But there's a reason it's me.

673
00:42:19,248 --> 00:42:20,916
I will do anything to protect our family.

674
00:42:21,916 --> 00:42:24,378
You think I won't?

675
00:42:24,920 --> 00:42:26,463
They'll keep trying to get her back.

676
00:42:26,880 --> 00:42:29,257
They can try.
