Previously on Condor...

You're not gonna break me.

Challenge accepted.

Ma'am. It's about CHS Phoenix. He sent up an SOS.

My people are on to me. I'm being watched. Requesting asylum.

Breathe! Breathe!

She was working for the CIA!

Senator Thrush is pursuing an obstruction of justice charge against you.

Someone gave a sealed deposition.

Hello?

We're going to war.

With a 17-year-old boy? And the mother.

I'm ready.

Did you find Vasili? You alright?

Vasili is not in a very trusting mood just yet.

Doesn't he know who the mole is? Isn't that what started all this?

He was bluffing. He said he knew that there was a mole...

just not who it is.

His friend Arkady Volk told him.

You told Sirin about me?

We should talk about it.

I'm done talking. You just about got me burned.

We need to get to Volk.

That's not possible.

It's the only way. He's the only one who knows the identity of the mole.

You won't get near him.

I think I know someone who can.

I need your help.

Lior's business is financed by the Kremlin.

He took money from them. He's an SVR asset.

I didn't do this to you. You did this to yourself.

Frankly, the only part I'm having a hard time believing is how anybody can be such a loser.

What did you do, Gordon?

Gordon, what the fuck did you do?

Let's go, Piper.

You guys keep asking the same questions. I keep giving the same answers.

Isn't that how Einstein defined insanity?

Just because you drag me out of bed in the middle of the night...

Give it a rest, man. Your wife is here.

Don't fuck in there.

Baby, what happened to your face?

What did you do to him? Did you hit him?

He didn't hit me.

Who hit you?

Baby, leave it alone.

We'd like some privacy, please. You've got five minutes.

You okay?

I don't want you in here right now.

Sydney called in some favors.

Jesus? What you tell the kids?

That you were working.

It's not that I could have told them much else.

I've got no fucking clue what's going on.

Gordon, what the fuck is going on?

They think I'm spying for the Russians.

Did you tell them they're wrong?

Yes!

Did you tell them they're fucking stupid and

they should have their collective head examined?

How do you know I didn't do it?

Gordon...

I know you.

You're not a liar and you're not a cheat.

I took money from a guy who works for Russian intelligence.

Did you know..that he worked for Russian intelligence?

No, he offered me a job. I...

I asked him to advance me some money.

You mean he set you up?

Yeah.

I'm just so tired...

Despite what you think, I never, ever lost faith in you.

How much longer are you going to keep that up for?

For fucking ever! Okay?

You do not get to go to your dark place!

I need you here. I need you with me.

If...I don't go to jail

for accepting money from a foreign intelligence agent...

which is a big fucking "if".

I'll never get a job again.

My reputation is permanently ruined.

Honey, it's not going to come to that, okay?

Sydney already said the reason that they've kept this quiet...

is 'cause they don't have the evidence to charge you.

They're on a fucking fishing expedition, okay?

Now we are getting you out of here

and we are going to sue the shit out of these motherfuckers.

What?

We're going to sue the government?

Yes, we are going to sue everybody, babe. Everybody.

How are you even doing this right now? Where is this energy coming from?

Gordon!

My love for you is a very fucking powerful thing.

All right?

And anybody who messes with that better watch their ass!

Okay. Now we are fighting for you out there.

And you've got to promise me that you are fighting in here.

You tell me you're gonna fight, Gordon.

I'm gonna fight. Yeah?

Fuck, yeah!

Good.

Let's go.

I'm sorry...for putting you through all this.

I can do this standing on my head.

You're amazing. I don't deserve you.

Yes, you fucking do.

I love you.

How's my fucking wife?

Did you ever think that maybe the Russians were setting Gordon up?

Is it the same photo from Bob's office?

What if it was put there as a plant?

You got Gordon served to you on a silver platter

by a single source inside the SVR

whose identity is known only to you?

I feel like they know.

Maybe you were the one who was approached.

Fuck!

Well, she's coming.

How did you get her to agree to that?

I told her to come hear what we had to say

and if she didn't like it, we'd part as friends.

And I said if she didn't come I'd show up at her office.

That was stupid.

You know, I guess this is where we're at.

Maybe she's not coming.

And maybe she's not coming to talk.

You think she'd do that?

She's not someone you want as your enemy.

You're scared she's gonna hold my actions against you.

I just told you what I'm scared of.

I had this whole plan in my mind about how this would all go.

Now, looking back, it all seems so naive.

Happens to me all the time.

Yet we continue to make plan.

Your girlfriend fall asleep?

You trying to give me a heart attack, man?

I wasn't sure if this would be a negotiation or a dung fight.

Figured I'd better see you first.

That how bad things have got between us?

Last time we spoke you dictated the terms of your retirement to me via blackmail.

And you got drunk and told Vasili Sirin you had an asset operating inside the CIA.

I made a mistake. I trusted Vasili like a brother,

but I never told him your name.

My loyalties aren't changing.

You know, it don't seem fair that the man who recruited me to be a double agent

would criticize me for disloyalty.

Do you think we were going to do this forever?

What was the point of killing Partridge and setting up Gordon

if I'm not free to live my life?

Just tell me what I need to do to be done and I'll do it.

Isn't it obvious?

There's an extremely resourceful man whose life is on the line

and the only way he can save it is by discovering who you are,

and selling that information to the Americans.

Neither one of us will be safe until he's eliminated.

I'm going to start calling you "Boomerang".

You look like you're dying.

Probably quite soon.

Not soon enough.

You could have been dead already.

I could have finished you.

It would have made more sense.

She says she helped me against her better judgment.

You, too. I could have killed you in the woods.

Oh, yeah? Why didn't you?

Because I had a soft spot for this one, but it hardened overnight.

Your boss framed an innocent man.

Innocent to whom?

You are not on my side, neither is Piper.

So he wasn't on your side? So I'm right?

Gordon isn't the mole.

So who is?

Katya. I made a mistake.

This is the only way to put things right.

You're making another mistake right now.

I don't know who it is.

It's the truth.

Volk didn't trust me with that.

I don't think he trusts me at all.

I need to find out who it is.

You should ask him yourself. I'm ready to do that.

You will never get near him.

You don't even know what my plan is yet.

Watch out for this one. He wants to kill himself.

She says you're suicidal.

The next time we meet, it'll be as enemies.

You too.

She said...

Yeah, I know what she said.

Listen!

I'm done listening to you.

Then listen to yourself...

You could have been dead already.

I could have finished you.

It would have made more sense.

She says she helped me against her better judgment.

You, too. I could have killed you in the woods.

Oh, yeah, Why didn't you?

Because I had a soft spot for this one, but it hardened overnight.

I should kill you.

If you don't help us then this goes to the Russian embassy in 24 hours.

You were right. We're not on the same team.

This was a helpful reminder.

You are punching way above your weight class.

How?

We lure Volk to a secure location, we kidnap him...

and then we force the identity of the mole out of him by any means necessary.

Are you going to try something crazy?

You said,

"Hear me out if you don't like what I have to say, we'll part as friends".

It turns out I don't like what you had to say.

Well, I'm afraid I lied to you.

Well, then, why should I trust you now?

Because you don't have a choice.

What you have is 23 hours and 59 minutes.

Goodnight.

Aah!

Hello? Peter.

Jesus!

How?

When are they going to print? Fuck me!

Can we stop it?

It's Tracy. Leave a message.

Somebody leaked the story to the press.

Everything is upside fucking down. I have lost control.

I need my sounding board. Where the fuck are you?

Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!

Tracy?

Hey.

Hey.

Where did you go?

I, uh, sorry, I had a work thing. Uh...listen...n...

It doesn't matter. We have to leave.

What?

Sammy was arrested.

Sammy? Are you okay? Are you sure?

Okay, good, listen to me.

Everything's going to be fine, okay, I'm going to handle this.

I'm going to pick you up from nana's later.

Could you just put nana back on?

I love you, too.

Mom, listen up. No, we don't need a lawyer, okay?

I just need you to go into my closet

and get the shoebox out of the right side.

There's a little black phone book inside of it.

No, it was Sam's.

I need you to get Rueul Abbott's contact information and call me back.

Hey! Hey! Get up.

Where we going?

We gotta get out of here.

In case Katerina decides you're a more expedient path than co-operation.

Where are we gonna go?

A friend of mine is out of town and her kids are at her grandma's.

Sounds like a fairy tale.

You look like shit.

You all right?

Fine.

I need your help.

Sirin came to my place that night...

after my polygraph test.

He was hurt.

I took care of him. I asked him to leave, but he won't.

The next day, when you came in, he was still there...

hiding.

I took him to the safe house where we found him later.

I lied to you.

I didn't think I had a choice.

It was me who met Joe Turner at Union Station.

You just missed us.

You mean, when we were at the house...

you lost him deliberately.

I let him get away into the woods.

Why now? Why are you telling me all this?

I've got no choice.

Turner's blackmailing me.

He wants me to lure you into a trap.

All I can do is...ask for your mercy.

Give me one reason not to kill you here and now.

What if you're still playing me...

still setting me up to a trap.

My feelings towards you have changed.

So now you think I'm stupid?

On the contrary. That's the last thing I think you are.

Well then...if you don't think I'm a fool...

Get up! You're gonna be late.

Hey, Ria.

I think I missed my true calling as an artist.

Hell, I think it's fucked up we're torturing him like this.

Boss wants to fuck with him, I want to make the boss happy.

That's probably what they said at Abu Gharib.

This isn't Abu Gharib.

Not yet. Somebody fucked up.

No-one was supposed to know about this shit.

Why are you smiling like that?

Hi, it's Eva Piper calling for Senator Thrush.

Eva Piper calling.

I'm not here.

Okay, err...I understand.

Can you just tell her that I'm around whenever she has the time.

It's very important.

Mr.Abbott's office.

It's Robin Larkin calling for him.

I don't have Mr.Abbott for you right now Ms.Larkin.

Tell him I know he planted the Piper story.

I'm sorry?

There's no-one else who could have done it.

Why would Mr.Abbott leak a story that makes us look bad...

and you and your department look good?

I don't know. That's the part that fucking scares me.

Morning, boss. He's fucking dying in there, boss.

You showed him the newspaper...

Yeah.

Who the fuck told you to do that?

Go!

Where the fuck are you?

Mr.Abbott's office.

It's Mae, Barbara. Is he there?

I am sorry Mrs.Barber, he's not in today.

Tell Rueul that I got his message. Loud and clear.

Please call me back. Okay, Mrs.Barber.

You know, I'd be losing my shit right now if you weren't here.

Yeah?

We make a good team. I think so too.

You know the secret to making a great omelet?

- Breaking a few eggs? - Hmm...hmm.

Low heat.

Oh, shoot...

Yes, Barbara?

Uh, May Barber and Robin Larkin both called.

Tell them I'll call them both back. Okay?

Anything else?

Ms.Larkin seemed to think you were behind the paper...

Is this typical behavior for you?

Taking days off, not returning phone calls?

No, and my assistant must be very perplexed.

You're a strange bird, Rueul Abbott.

Thank you.

People our age are generally pretty set in their ways.

Well, it's your fault.

You made me want to be another person.

Well, it kind of scares me.

Why?

Because the person you already are has great responsibilities and...

you seem willing to put those on hold for a woman you've only just met.

She's a very special woman.

I like you a lot but I'm worried

that you're going to do something that has nothing to do with me.

Oh! You...you're worried about me?

May I show you something?

That is me, on the Yale divinity course where I was recruited.

Divinity? Hm...hmm.

I actually wanted to be a Pastor.

Really?

Mm. You sound surprised.

You know, you know I was...

I was actually a conscientious objector.

I wanted to be the next William Sloane Coffin.

But why did you join the CIA?

I was inspired by the Civil Rights Movement...don't laugh.

Oh yes! It sounds perverse, I know but I could actually see the social change that was...

happening in America and I wanted to bring those Human Rights,

to the rest of the world.

So, here I am marching.

I wore cowboy boots for about five years.

I wanted to be taller, so I wore cowboy boots!

I ab...absolutely destroyed my feet.

So actually I...I really am not becoming someone else.

I'm reconnecting with the person that I once was.

And I thought it was important that I show you this.

Oh! Marching again...

Now may I feed you?

Yes.

I got the bags. Thank you.

Boys here?

No, I gotta go pick them up from my mom's.

Jesus!

Did you know about this?

Is it true?

I don't know.

I don't think so, but...

I don't know.

This is what you and Joe have been doing?

Can't get anything past the spy's wife.

Or spy fucker.

Hey...this is work. It's a very complicated case.

Hey!

What are you doing here?

I live here.

You...you said you were out of town.

Yeah, we came back early. Are...are the kids here?

They're at my mom's. What's going on?

Mae, we need somewhere to go.

We?

My friend is sick. He has an infection in his leg.

So take him to a hospital.

He can't go to a hospital.

So you brought him here?

I didn't...didn't know where else to take him. Okay?

You said you were going to be out of town. I'm sorry.

He's not doing well.

This must be Basil?

Please...

Why did you bring him to my home?

You really think you can trust this woman to betray her own people?

You don't even know her.

I don't have a choice. But neither does she.

I think...I think she'll do it.

And in your mind where does this all get staged?

I don't know. I don't suppose you've got a spare safe house kicking around, do you?

I might.

I can help.

I...I can't...

I can't put anyone else in danger. Gordon is a friend of mine.

He's being set up and I wanna do everything I can to help him.

Hey! Hey!

I gave him an antibiotic and a tranquilizer, so he'll be out for a while.

Okay.

I'll call my mom and ask her to keep the kids again tonight.

Do you want to help me get him downstairs?

Of course.

Hey!

I will do what you asked.

Stay by the phone. I'll be in touch.

Good. Come on.

Our good health.

About that poison you gave Polina...

was it in the caviar or the vodka?

Vodka.

Excuse me.

Hello.

I know where Vasili Sirin's going to be tomorrow.

Stay by your phone.

There's a woman one of yours who's helping.

I'm aware.

Where the fuck have you been?

I told ya I was going out of town for a coupla days. I just got back.

I got played.

By who?

Rueul. And the Russians. And...probably a bunch of other people.

Phoenix is fucking gone.

Probably dead. Definitely my fault.

But Abbott leaked the story to the press...

which means he wanted it out there, which...

means they walked right into a setup.

And you let me.

You're saying Abbott is concealing evidence that proves Gordon is innocent?

Look. I know that Gordon is your friend, but right now I could really use a friend.

Where are you?

At my house.

I'm on my way.

Where the hell is he?

I'm sorry, Mrs.Barber. He's outta pocket until Monday.

Well, call him at home. This is a personal matter. I need to speak to him today.

I really am sorry, Mrs.Barber...

God...dammit!

Is everything all right? No. Your friend's gonna be okay.

Thank you.

We've gotta get him out of here as soon as possible.

I will.

I've got my own shit to deal with.

I promise.

I'm fucked, Trace.

You're not fucked.

I am so fucking fucked.

You're not...you're not fucking fucked. Cmon...

Let's have a drink and tell me everything. Start from the beginning.

Okay.

What I'm hearing...is a lot of speculation.

We don't know that Gordon was set up and we don't know that you were set up.

You said it yourself from the start.

They used Phoenix to feed me Gordon. You were right.

You said that Phoenix was paranoid.

Yeah...

Then maybe he can't reach out right now.

Look, just think. There's no sense in us getting all spun out.

Okay, we just need to relax so that we can think clearly.

Holy shit! Holy shit!

It's the one thing I know how to do in the kitchen.

That's your second-best room.

You know what I think? What do your think?

I think we should go away together.

Maybe if we pretend we're not hearing whoever it is, we'll just leave.

Maybe we're being attacked by North Korea.

Don't let your eggs get cold.

Drop the charges.

This is a terrible time, Mae.

You found out that I spoke to Senator Thrush and you had him arrested?

No, Sam was arrested because he sent a SWAT team....

I'll call Senator Thrush right now and recant every word that I said.

I'll tell her that I was lying. I will do whatever you want.

What I want is... He's 17!

I would like you to leave this house and come back tomorrow, please!

Fuck you! I am not leaving until you tell me that we have a deal.

Okay, we have a deal.

Swear on Melanie's soul.

I swear on Melanie's soul.

I better hope she's not watching.

Oh, my God. Mae!

I behaved unconscionably to you and your family. Mae!

I deeply regret it.

Oh God, I'm so sorry. I'm just...I'm so sorry...

Whatever you do, just tell me the truth.

I had Mae's son arrested...because he sent a SWAT team to my home.

I could've been killed.

This is, like, you had him arrested as an act of retaliation.

Retaliation against what?

Well, I threatened his mother...to protect him.

It's a very sensitive operation and really I shouldn't be talking about this.

It's classified information.

But she was trying to go public.

So, all the horrible shit I've read about you online, it's...it's all true.

I've...I've done some terrible, terrible things...

but, um...

I was always doing it...

in the belief that it was for the greater good, but, um...

I was wrong, and...

and knowing you has...has...

it's really...it's...

it's made me wanna...

re-examine my life. I wanna go back to the person I was...

I strongly suggest you do that.

Please...

I really am sorry...

Holly, please, please...Holly! Holly!

Hasn't touched his food all day.

Yeah?

Look at him in there. He hasn't even moved.

Maybe we should call her... Tell her what?

The prisoner is, err...

You know, when I was in Athens, I was riding high.

I could see round fucking corners.

And a piano fell on my head.

What!?

I'm just saying that the real bad shit that happens here

is not the shit you're worried about.

It's the shit that you could never imagine would happen.

You're not really making me feel much better.

You know, what I regret is...

is wishing that you could change something that is unchangeable.

Isn't that stupid?

You don't have any regrets?

That's the point.

Look, you made your choice, now what's the next play?

Why beat yourself up for something that's already been done?

Good point...thanks.

That's why I'm here.

Don't ever leave again.

Speaking of which...I do have to go and take care of something.

Will you be okay? Yeah.

Go!

Alright.

Get outta here.

But...um, hey...

you're a good friend, Trace.

Well, you're a good friend to be a good friend to.

Get ou...

We'll see how this Gordon stuff plays out. Huh?

The truth always comes out in the end.

Yeah.

Give Phoenix time.

I will.

She'll reach out when she feels she can.

Yeah, maybe you're right. I'm just spinning out over nothing.

Thank you. Thanks again.

You okay?

I said "she", didn't I?

What the fuck, Trace?

Listen. Robin... No, come on.

She saw that Laura and Mary were still awake and she said to them,

"Go to sleep, girls. Everything's all right".

"Pa will be here in the morning".

Then she went back to her rocking chair and sat there rocking gently...

holding baby Carrie in her arms.

"In the morning, Pa was there..."

That's a good place to stop?

I agree.

I love you so much.

Get the Epinephrine. Go! go! go!

Gordon, come on! Come on! Breathe!

Come on!

Oh, fuck!

Hey. Hey.

I got a safe house.

It's not really a safe house, but it'll work.

Okay. Uh...

Well, then, let's...let's do it.
