All language subtitles for Manhattan (2014) - S02E09 - Brooklyn (1080p BluRay x265 RCVR)

Previously on
"Manhattan"...

Robert Oppenheimer's
having an affair.

- We have to do something.
- We?

Frank Winter was a problem.
You made him disappear.

Beuker
Joseph Beuker.

Charlie Isaacs.

I need an address for a
woman who died last year.

I'm trying to contact
her next of kin.

I spoke with Miss Tatlock
on the telephone,

and I said some cruel things.

I hereby declare you
a citizen

of the United States
of America.

Welcome home, son.

Is that the man
you remember?

Brooklyn... no ideology,
no beliefs beyond himself,

thinks he's
in a spy picture.

What are you doing?
Give that to me. Give...

Perseus believes that he is
more intelligent than he is,

which makes him
susceptible to flattery.

Those notes
are not about you.

Well, I guess that there's another
Soviet spy on the Hill.

President Roosevelt is
assembling a Target Committee

to decide
how the gadget's used

and who it's going to
be dropped on.

You can't make me fix
Charlie Isaacs' broken bomb.

I want a seat
on the Target Committee.

I can get
the scientists a seat,

but it won't be you.

What if someone dipped a brush

in the wrong can of paint?

Convince
the Target Committee

to demonstrate the bomb
on an uninhabited island.

We're all betting on him now.

Attention.
AH technical work

must be completed
before the dignitaries arrive

for tomorrow's
committee meeting.

Frank.

I got my hands on
the Target Committee list.

Fourteen names, most
of them DC regulars.

These guys wage war
for a living.

You really think they're gonna
care what I have to say'?

Break a leg,
Dr. Isaacs.

The meeting's happening
in the shadow of your test.

In that room,
you are the authority.

I built them
a $2 billion car.

Now I'm gonna tell them
to leave it in the garage?

No, no. You tell them to drop
it on an uninhabited island

instead of
a military target.

Fly in the Japanese
high command,

give them all
front-row seats...

White flags waving over
Hirohito's palace in a week.

Everybody wins.

Hirohito isn't
Harry Truman.

His people think
he's a god.

Gods don't bow to armies.

You think he's just gonna
fold after a warning shot'?

It's not
a warning shot.

This is not even
another bomb.

It's a second sun.

The emperor is not
surrendering to the Army,

he's surrendering to the...
The power of the universe.

To be honest, I wish it was you
facing the firing squad, Frank.

Makes the test look easy.

Just remember, when you
first get into the meeting,

keep quiet, let them
exhaust themselves

fighting over which military
target to take out.

Yeah, and then wait
for the last word. I know.

Yeah, you gotta make an
emotional appeal, Charlie.

They got one chance
to show restraint here,

win the war without
any more loss of life.

I'm not sure the Army's losing a lot
of sleep over Japanese casualties.

Okay, well, come up
with your own angle.

Try to... try to
make it personal.

- Make it personal.
- Yeah.

If we detonate a base
near a populated area,

there'll be, what,
50,000 casualties?

How many children?

Jesus, I don't know.
Urn... 20,000.

What about Joey?

My kid, their kids.

If we don't show mercy
with our WAMD in this war,

how can we expect anyone to show our
children mercy in the next one?

That's it.
Say that.

Hey, Frank...

where are you
bunking up now

that you're back
from the desert?

- Starting tonight, my new office.
- New?

I imagine I have
you to thank for that?

It only took two months
to convince Oppenheimer

you were an improvement
over a drunk foreigner.

The capsule got stuck
in the tamper.

- Team leader's on the phone.
- Jesus, I'm coming.

- Just make sure you get the last word.
- Yes, I know-

Welcome back
to the cheap seats.

Don't fret,
we saved your desk.

Dr. Winter.

Theodore Sinclair.
Welcome to Little Boy.

Well, we have a job.

We'll do it to the best
of our ability.

And if we are lucky,
it will all be for nothing.

The implosion gadget,
it's the warning shot.

Little Boy's only on deck

if the Japanese
don't heed that warning.

Let's just all hope
that day never comes.

Not exactly
St. Crispin's Day.

Victor, please...

stay for dessert.

Your job is to listen.

We're hoping your expertise
will prove useful

in translating
technical information

concerning the current
status of the gadget.

Our gadget
or the Soviets'?

Yes, Dr. Barath.
I will try to put you through,

but there are so many calls
coming in from out there.

Hello?

- Mr. Tatlock?
- Yes?

This is Abigail Isaacs.

Miss Isaacs,
you received my letter.

Yes.

"Let 100 mothers cry,
but not my mother.

But better my mother
than me."

Do you know
who said that?

George Washington...
Kidding.

It was an Arab.
I love Arabs.

Great fighters,
highly quotable.

And I've heard
that particular adage

is a favorite of your boss
at the Kremlin, right?

You must think that you
know what happens next.

But we Yanks, we're
such a young country.

We're still
finding our legs.

No idea what we wanna be
when we grow up.

It makes us...

unpredictable.

Ah, you were so good,
Mr. Green.

You're so thorough.

Burned everything,

just like they
taught you in Moscow.

Buried the ashes
in the yard.

It's just that we're getting
better and better at...

unburying things.

So, what's in Brooklyn?

Wasn't our, uh, uranium

stockpiled
in a warehouse there?

Urn, Staten Island.

Staten Island. Anyway,
that was a long time ago.

Too obvious for a man
of your pedigree.

So, what is it?

Uh... maybe Brooklyn's
not a borough.

Maybe it's a code
for a military maneuver.

Or maybe... maybe Brooklyn...
is a man.

Your ace
in the hole,

your atomic spy.

He's a New Yorker,
isn't he?

Thank you, Dr. Oppenheimer.

I'm sure you feel like a
war widow, Mrs. Isaacs.

I've made unreasonable
demands on Charlie,

but I promise to
return him undamaged

in 48 hours.

Sir, I spoke to Professor
John Tatlock this morning.

Jean's father.

I wanted to know
more about his daughter...

and her death.

What business
is it of yours?

Well, I overheard some of your
calls at the switchboard.

Mr. Tatlock says
that the handwriting

on the note wasn't Jean's

and that someone
may have staged the scene

to look like a suicide.

You loved her.

Don't you wanna know
if someone killed her?

You are a...

reasonably intelligent
woman.

Do you know the difference

between a conjecture
and a theorem?

Allow me.

I may conjecture that Colonel
Darrow had Jean murdered

to keep me on the project.

What?

But I have nothing
to test, to prove.

Therefore, no theorem.

We'll never know.

That's our world.

Uncertainty.

Nuance.

No need to return
to the switchboard.

You're removed.

We anticipate
a temperature rise about,

uh, six degrees
every three seconds.

Dr. Winter.

I requested
new composites,

but Donlon says
we've already blown

our metallurgy budget
for the month.

Yeah. Well, I hope you didn't
spend it all in one place.

Apparently most of it went to a
laboratory in Rochester, New York.

What's in Rochester?

Um, you know what?

It'll take me
a couple of days

to get
back up to speed,

but I'll definitely
get into it.

Is he always
so unfocused?

He'll be back.

Abigail.

This has been
a complicated day.

Maybe we can worship
together later in the week.

Did the Army have anything to
do with Jean Tatlock's death?

Miss Tatlock took her
own life, as you know.

Colonel, I know she didn't.

What exactly did your
husband tell you?

Not my husband.
Robert Oppenheimer.

Then it's true, isn't it?

And you knew...
You knew all along,

and you let me beg God
for forgiveness.

Do you like
to watch women beg?

Did you watch
Jean Tatlock beg?

You're confused, Abby.

Just because you're an
officer in the Army...

I'll tell Charlie.
I'll just tell the police.

Come with me.

Where?

Confession.

What is this place?

My sanctuary.

I'm not telling
you how to do your job.

I'm just telling you that
there's a job to be done.

Frank Winter
was a problem.

You made him disappear.

Miss Tatlock needs to go.

What are you suggesting?

You're a soldier, right?

We're at war.

What do you know about war?

If you can't handle it,

my father has associates
in St. Louis.

You should be careful
whom you accuse, Mrs. Isaacs.

And may the Lord
forgive us all.

Did you find him
at a meeting?

Or did your man just waltz
into the consulate general?

Brooklyn is in Kings County.
Maybe he's British.

Maybe you're Brooklyn.

Warmer?

Colder?

Please, Victor,
don't make me angry.

Help me.

Get me some rat poison,

a razor blade.

Do you know what
the water cure is?

They pour water
into your nostrils.

You drown on dry land.

I don't know
what you're doing here,

but you're not one of them.

Think of the people
who love you.

How would your son feel
if he knew you'd be tortured?

How do you know
I have a son?

Or... or a daughter.

A wife.

You have a family. I can
see it in your eyes.

Their father,
their husband,

he's a merciful man,
I know.

I see it.

I think...
I think Victor knows me...

Things about me.

If he does,
maybe Brooklyn knows me.

Maybe I know him.

How did they find him?

It must've been
that Indian boy.

And you're sure
that it's him?

Yes, he's a handler.
His name is Victor Green.

Well, I already have a pass
for the test site.

I can leave now.

No. No, you and Perseus,
you wait for the convoy,

and you get out
to the test site as planned.

- We can't arouse suspicion.
- What if he gives us up?

He won't crack. Even if they
torture him, he won't crack.

Are you sure about that?

I know men like him. I know
how they've been trained.

He... he killed
a G-2 agent.

He risked his own life so that you
could finish what you've started.

Yes, but if he trades up and I
don't make it off the Hill,

I won't be able
to finish anything.

Listen to me.
Nothing changes.

You wait for the convoy and
you take it out to the site.

Okay.

Do you have the schematics
for the circuits?

I don't need the schematics.
I built the circuits.

Do you understand what happens
if the test succeeds?

It won't.
I won't crack, either.

Okay?

So, do you have
a dossier on Paul?

Did Brooklyn think that he
was recruitable as well?

It turns out
we have a big tent

and a welcome mat, too.

Only 20 men on this hill
know that I have a son.

Hogarth is one of them,

but, uh, I rather doubt
his double agency.

Even his single agency
was shit.

You know, you're not the
only one with a kid, Paul.

Victor has a daughter.
Eleanor. Adopted.

Should be about 30 now?

On the rolls at the
University of Pittsburgh?

But Eleanor fell off the
map a few years ago.

And so where is she, Victor?
Have you heard from her lately?

No?

Don't worry, Director Hoover
has all kinds of ways

to track people down
these days.

I predict
a tearful reunion.

I need your assurance
you'll leave her out of this.

In exchange for...

A name.

Your colleague, he came
to us two years ago.

He told us
you have a son.

His name was Sid Liao.

You're welcome.

Take one for the road.

Have as many pastries
as you like.

Good afternoon, gentlemen.

While I have your attention,

I want to tell you about a study
I've been conducting

in partnership with
one of the university labs

on the environmental effects
of the Trinity Test.

When, in the next 48 hours,

you detonate the world's
first atomic weapon,

you will propel radioactive
particles high into the sky

that will eventually
fall back down to earth.

Let's give
this phenomenon a name.

Let's call it...

"fallout."

Fallout.

Despite all the work that
you've done here on the Hill,

we know almost nothing
about how fallout

will be absorbed
back into the earth

or maybe
into the human body.

Consider, for example,
the lanthanum radioactive tests

you've been doing
in the Bayo Canyon.

Incidentally,
that muffin you're eating,

that was baked this morning
from corn that was harvested

from that very area.

Now, Trinity could produce

100,000 times more fallout
than any prior experiment.

And we have no idea
what this might mean

for the surrounding farms,
for the water sources,

for the water we drink
here on the Hill.

Our research
has only just begun.

But for everything
we don't know,

there is one thing
that we do...

The extent of the fallout
will depend on the weather,

how strong the winds are
and which direction they blow.

The weather will determine
the magnitude

of the effect of Trinity.

And unless the weather
agrees with us,

we won't move forward.

I expect you all to know Dr.
Winter's report chapter and verse

by the time you
get to the test site.

So, those muffins, did they
really come from the Bayo Canyon?

The PX. You think
I took up baking?

An Oriental was spying
for the Russians?

Uh, according
to our guest.

You wanna explain to me how a
ghost killed Avram Fisher?

Victor might
have killed him.

I don't think Sid Liao
is their spy.

Was their spy.

I know there was a time
that I doubted him,

but Sid Liao was just a desperate
chap in over his head.

There are 428 men
on your payrolls

who were born or raised
in Brooklyn,

72 on this hill.

Maybe we should consider
delaying the test

until that list
can be narrowed.

In two days, the President
of the United States

will be in Potsdam, Germany,

sitting across
from Joseph Stalin

with the map of the
world between them.

Truman's gonna
draw lines on that map.

Clear, bright, lines.

Delay is out
of the question.

Sir, I know I'm new to this,

but what if it's not just
information that they're after?

We just shipped a billion
dollars' worth of plutonium

into the middle
of the desert.

What if Brooklyn stole it?
What if...

I don't know, what if he manages
to disrupt the test somehow?

What would the president
have to show Stalin then?

I will speak with
Mr. Green myself.

Make sure
we have more castings.

As many as it takes.

All right. Go, go!
Kiss your kids good night.

Hopefully, not for good.

Circus leaves town
10:00 A.M. sharp.

Fritz.

You ready for
the Target Committee?

No. You help me prep
on the way out to Trinity.

I'm...

I'm not going
to Trinity.

Dr. Isaacs, we need
your approval for...

Hang on.
Sit down.

Sit down.

Fritz...

I know you've been through
hell and I'm sorry.

No, no, I'm sorry.

I'm sorry that I won't
be able to help you anymore.

I'm grateful for the opportunities
you've given me here, Charlie,

but I just... I've had enough
death for one lifetime.

How long have they
been in there?

I heard you
were a patient man.

That your patience led to the
capture of six enemy combatants.

So how'd you
come to all this?

- You're some sort of...
- Psychiatrist.

Ah, talking cure.

You're a long way from
Freud's couch, doctor.

Well, diseases of the mind

aren't confined to
asylums, Paul.

They rewrite maps.

Look at Hitler.

Stalin.
The world's full of sick...

Clean it up.

Abby? Sorry,
I should've told you

I wouldn't be back
last night.

Everyone needed
five minutes.

Now I only have five minutes.
Where's my suitcase?

Hey, could I get
a sandwich for the road?

Have your men do it.

What?

Your men in St. Louis.

Your father's men who took
care of Jean Tatlock.

Have them do it.

Abby.

Colonel Darrow records

every conversation
in his office.

Did you know that?
I didn't.

I heard you, Charlie.

It was a bluff...

to light a fire
under Darrow,

and then he...

took things too far.

He did, not me.

Do you think a jury cares
whose hands are dirtier?

Jesus. Abby,
the decisions I make every...

I'm holding a hundred thousand
lives in my dirty hands.

In my position, you see
things through to the end,

things the world
might not understand,

but because you believe
in something bigger.

You let me believe that I was
responsible for a woman's death.

You're a monster.

God, I don't expect
you to understand.

No. No, of course not.

How could I? I just have
the one life in my hands.

I gotta go.

We'll talk about it
when I get back.

Joey!

Where's Joey?

He's on his way
to Brookline.

I don't have time for games, Abby.
Where is he?

Juanita is driving him.

He's going to live
with my parents.

The colonel may have me
trapped here, but...

my son will have
no part of this.

You sent my son

3,000 miles away from me

with the goddamn maid?

I was seeing things through.

Maybe I'm just as much
to blame as you are,

but Joey deserves better.

Stolen away
from his father,

that's what he deserves?

I'm keeping him
safe from you

just like you should've been
kept safe from your father!

You think I won't get in the
car and bring him back?

Your test
is in 24 hours.

You think I don't know
which way you'll drive?

Is this how they teach you
how to stage a suicide

in medical school?

This one's a challenge.

The stable's a unique venue.

Forty percent check out
in their own house.

I prefer bathrooms.

It's a good place
to open a wrist.

Or drown.

In the end, it's not the
scene that matters,

it's the story.

It's gotta be credible.

In this case...

a bankrupt,
small-time rancher

holes up in
his remote barn.

How about this
for a story?

A commissioned officer
executes a suspect?

The man who could have told us
the identity of Brooklyn.

There was no judge,
there was no jury...

Do you think
I'm happy we're here?

A Soviet spy in the hand
is worth ten in the ground.

We could've used him.
Angry man, your colonel.

Not a lot of restraint
when it comes to Communists.

He'll make a hell of a senator someday.
You wait and see.

Grab that foot.

He won't mind.

We're gonna pull
on three. Ready?

One, two, three.

You know, I agreed to translate
scientific information.

Urn...

tell the colonel
my tenure is over.

The colonel, forget him. He
doesn't even know you're here.

No, I wanted you
to see this.

Why?

World War ll is over, Paul.

The next war's already started.

It's gonna be unlike
any conflict in history.

It'll be waged silently
by men like you and me.

- I'm a physicist.
- I'm a doctor.

We're forming a new breed
of intelligence organization,

one with a more
centralized approach.

We have connections,
money, pedigree...

Things you like.

You'll get used to
the things you don't.

I saw them load the crate
into the back of the truck.

Well, how do you know
it was a body?

What else are they gonna carry
out of an interrogation room?

Jesus.

Prepare to clear way

for convoy departure
to Trinity site.

That's the, uh...
That's the convoy.

I bet... I better go.

No. No!

You're not going
with the convoy.

You and Perseus are gonna
go out there on your own.

What? Why?

I'm making an
adjustment to the plan.

If we all we do
is sabotage the gadget,

- they'll just keep rebuilding it.
- Maybe.

But it's gonna take them months
to figure out what went wrong.

And then they'll do another test,
just ten times more powerful.

But didn't Moscow say
to stick to the plan?

Didn't you say
that nothing changes?

I'm changing...
I'm changing the plan.

Oh, you...
You can do that?

Those men out there
at Trinity,

they're not gonna stop
unless we stop them.

Stop them how?

You built the circuits,

you can wire them to go off
at any time you like.

You mean before
everyone evacuates?

Jim...

You wanna kill
the scientists?

You wanna kill
my friends?

We do one terrible
thing tomorrow,

but then no one
ever has to again.

I wanna go to the test.

And I'm gonna get there if I have
to stow away in somebody's trunk.

Don't do that.

Why not?

Don't go to Trinity.

You've got a lot of
work to do here.

Yeah, well,
tell that to my boss.

Even Hogarth
worked longer hours.

Hey, Frank is damn lucky

to have you as his deputy.

And he's not going
to the Trinity site, either.

No. But who is?

You. A guy who went
to a second-rate law school

is getting orchestra seats

to physics history.

Hey, I went to
a third-rate law school.

And if I could
bring a date...

Well, it wouldn't
be me, apparently.

Charlie Isaacs.

What am I supposed
to call you? "Beuker"?

Sure, why not?

What the hell
are you doing here?

Uh, ever been to Brooklyn?

Not in a long time. Why?

Never mind. I heard you
fixed both gadgets

inside of six months.

Not bad for a
conscientious objector.

Yeah, maybe I went
to the wrong meetings.

What do you want, Joe?

You ever hear of Camp
Aliceville in Alabama?

Why? Is that where
you're putting on

your latest piece
of theater?

It's a prison
for German POWs.

Not all military.
Cultural ambassadors, too.

Even a few musicians.

Including your mother.

I thought you
might like to know.

Team leader
from test vector X-2B,

report to director Schaefer.

Helen?
What time is it?

Business hours
in New York.

- Oh.
- Took some calls,

but I got to the bottom
of how our metallurgy budget

wound up in Rochester.

Mm.

Admin must've given you
the wrong form to sign,

but, uh, you can give them
a call, straighten it out.

Just leave the number
here on my desk.

The funny thing is... and you
won't believe the coincidence...

Liza's collaborating with the
University of Rochester on her work.

Our money just funded all the
resources and equipment she needs.

Small world.

Must be really exhausting making sure
we don't finish Little Boy on time.

As soon as you're sitting
in this chair again,

we'll do things your way.

I did everything you asked

when you were
running implosion.

Even when it was illegal.

I sounded the alarm
when you disappeared.

Then I gave up
my one shot at history

so you could get us
a seat at the table...

Scientific control
of the bomb.

But you don't want
a seat at the table, Frank.

You don't want there
to be a table or a bomb.

And you think
that you're entitled

to make that decision
on your own.

And what about you, Helen?

You excited to
incinerate 20,000 kids?

How did you get
this office back, Frank?

Fixing Charlie's mistake?

The detonator charges
at the dry run,

they got reversed somehow?

You came to the rescue?

Get the hell
out of my office.

Hey! What the hell?

What are you doing?

Excuse me, gentlemen.
Thank you.

Gentlemen? I think
we have a quorum.

I'll give the table
over to Dr. Oppenheimer.

Thank you,
Mr. Secretary.

The last time
this committee met,

it was on
Pennsylvania Avenue.

I think you'll find
the desert more civilized.

I'll start.

When I, uh,
took this job...

When I took this job,
I had no idea

what we were building here.

When I found out,
I wanted to leave.

Since I've been here,
I've done things...

I never imagined
I was capable of.

I convinced myself
we were here to protect

our kids from the Gestapo.

Well, my wife...

sent my kid
back East last night

to protect him from me.

Dr. Isaacs...

She told me
I'm a monster.

A murderer.

I wanted to tell her
she was wrong,

but I couldn't.

I had a speech prepared.

I was gonna come in here
and tell you

to detonate the bomb
on a desert island...

A demonstration for
the Japanese high command.

I was gonna tell you
that Hirohito

would surrender
on the spot.

I was gonna say
let's show restraint

and we can be feared
and loved

and then be forgiven
for bringing the gadget

into the world
in the first place.

But the truth is...

we can be loved...

or we can have peace.

Not both.

So, if we want
to change the world...

And we do, gentlemen...
We have to.

If we want to change
the world,

then we need to embrace

what the world
will call us

when we finish
what we've started.

Monsters...

who erased a city...

without warning.

You mean a military target?

No, a city
full of civilians.

And we detonate
the altitude

that gives us
the widest blast radius.

Maximum destruction
of infrastructure.

Homes, hospitals, schools.

It has to be catastrophic...

on a scale that no one
has ever imagined.

If we detonate our bomb
on a desert island,

we might stop this war.

But we won't prevent
the next one.

The weapon we're testing...

Fat Man?

It's nothing.

We'll measure it in, uh,
kilotons of TNT.

Twenty years from now
they'll be counting megatons,

countries, continents.

So I'm begging you,

for your kids,
your grandkids,

show the world
what evil looks like once.

See it through.

As a species,
we lack in imagination.

We can't conceive
of the big nightmares...

Genocide, mass starvation,

or atomic war
until we live it.

We have to drop our bomb

on a city in the heart
of Japan.

Because people need
something to be afraid of.

Fear is now
and has always been

the only thing
that keeps the peace.

The only thing that
changes the world,

changes anything, anyone.

We have to be monsters today

to stop the monsters
of tomorrow.

Hi.

Shouldn't you be
in the desert

with the rest of the nabobs

doing the chain-reaction
Charleston?

I'm not really
in a dancing mood.

I just don't believe it,
you know?

That accidents
just happen?

Do you know what
she said to me that day?

Jeannie?

Whatever you're gonna say...

Whether it's to
make me feel better

or just to spin
some Crosley malarkey...

Skip it.

She said she didn't know what
we were doing in the tech area,

but she knew that it
might change the world.

And Jeannie said
if the world had to change,

then you were the kind of man
to keep us all honest,

make sure it would
change for the better.

You can still get there,
you know?

I'll be at the PX
getting drunk.

You can come, not come...
I don't care.

Charlie.

Robert.

What the hell?

It was you.

I think Frank Winters
sabotaged the pretest.

Paul?

We need to talk about Jim.
