Yes, Mrs. Calloway?

There are two gentlemen here for Mr. Scott.
They insist on seeing him.

Here they are.

Captain Scott? Fielding Scott?

Yes?

How can I help you?

We'd like you to come with us, sir.

Straight ahead, sir.
They're expecting you.

Hello?

Hello, I'm--
-Mr. Scott, I assume.

The Chairman is expecting you.

Take the lift.

Green button.

Thank you.

Well, Fielding Scott,
very good to see you.

It's been a while.
How do you do, sir?

Got some interesting news for you.
-I'm sure you have.

So the case is closed?
-Well, not formally.

But it will be. You have my word.

But they've decided to give you a chance
to prove your zeal.

A kind of vindication.

What do I have to do?

Community service?
-No.

Go back to Berlin.

I'm afraid you don't have an option.

You could be in prison.

You killed a British agent.
-I was defending myself.

Simon Haldane tried to kill me.

And now we're inviting you back.

The Haldane business was clearly
some sort of massive cock-up.

Tangle of crossed wires.

You're an asset to us, Scott.

We need you back in Berlin.

Do you know him?
-Yes.

Manfred Ziegler.

A German friend from childhood.

He used to stay with our family
before the war.

He's working with the Russians
on their space program.

He's developed this new guidance system
for an intercontinental ballistic missile.

It's revolutionary, apparently.

What's this got to do with me?
-He wants to defect.

And he made this clear, and he said
he'll only come over if you're there.

He wants you, Fielding Scott,
to arrange everything.

One condition.

I will go to Berlin.

I'll meet Manfred. I'll do your negotiating.

But afterwards...

my case must be closed.

Officially.

WEST BERLIN
MARCH 22, 1961

US President John F. Kennedy

and Nikita Khrushchev,
head of government of the Soviet Union

and party leader of the CPSU

will meet for a summit
in Vienna on June 3rd and 4th.

Given Austria's neutral status,
the planned meeting should serve

to reduce tensions between the two powers.

This will be the first meeting of two leaders

since President Kennedy took office
on January 20th of this year.

Khrushchevand Kennedy will address,
among other things,

the end of nuclear weapons tests

and focus on the East-West conflict

in West Berlin.

EAST BERLIN

And I am writing you letters

Just to pass the time

You will not read a single line...

You will not read a single line
I put down in here

Love neither fills the stomach
Nor the party

But nothing is over yet--
-Reinhart, please. The neighbors!

Maybe we should invite them over.
-That's not funny.

Aren't you going to work?

I've got the day off.

I'm meeting someone.

He wants me to perform at the Cellar Club.

Are you out of your mind?
Do you want to go back to prison?

No, Eliza, I don't!

But I need to do this.

They've left me alone for the past six years.
Maybe they've forgotten about me.

They don't forget about anyone.

Well, I've kept my mouth shut this long.

I have to go back to the West tonight.
My landlady is getting suspicious.

You could move in with me...

if you want.

Then I'd lose my job.

Think about it.

Wouldn't it be nice?
We'd have our own place.

I have to keep my flat in the West.
I need the address.

I have to go there every now and then...
to make sure I'm seen.

And it breaks my heart

But my voice is intact

Not so loud!
-I hit with my words

Their bats have no impact

Please be careful.

And you're crying bitter tears

When my eyes are black and blue

But I won't keep my mouth shut

No matter how much I get hit

May I?

What have you got for me?

I have a new boss.
He's with the Air Liaison Committee.

Write his name down.

"Air Liaison Committee."

That's rather thin information, Eliza.

You'll have to do better.
We get nothing from you.

What am I supposed to do?

What if they suspect me?

If they suspected you, they'd arrest you.

I do the jobs I'm asked to do...
I do my best.

Maybe you should ask for a transfer.
You work there for a reason.

I've got something for you.

There's a teeny tiny camera.

And this...

is where you press...

to take a picture. Like this.

I don't know how long I can
keep Reinhart out of prison,

if you don't supply me
with substantial information.

How is he, by the way?
-He's fine.

Behaving himself?
-Yes.

Good.

ATTENTION!
YOU ARE NOW LEAVING WEST BERLIN

HEADQUARTERS BERLIN BRITISH SECTOR

Good morning, Mr. Scott.
-Morning, Eliza.

Mr. Petrie wants to see you in his office.
-Tell him I'll be ten minutes.

I believe he wants to see you now.

Alright. I'll be right there.

How was your weekend? Was it fun?
-Unexceptional.

BERLIN ALLIED SECTORS

Come.

You wanted to see me.

Yes, I was wanting a status report.

I wasn't aware I had to give you one.

Well, Scott, as I'm head of station,
I like to know what's going on.

As you've been seconded here,
you work for me.

For me.

You understand?

I'll make sure you're informed.
-Good.

So inform me.

What's happening with Beethoven?

It's been rather hard to organize.
-Yes, that's what I mean.

I should be in possession
of this information, and I'm not.

I'll make sure you are in the future.

May I ask you a question?
-Yes, of course.

Why involve the Americans and French?
-Well, it's a trial.

A joint operation, for once.

Show of solidarity, all that.

Could be useful. Three heads...
better than one working together.

More efficient... in theory.

Well, we are allies, I suppose.

I should go.

By the way.

Simon Haldane was a good friend of mine.

Really?

That's very interesting.

Why did you kill him?
-Because he tried to kill me.

I was defending myself.

That's completely impossible.

Everyone's saying that, but I was there.

So I know what actually happened.

There's a more interesting question.

Which is?
-Why did Simon Haldane try and kill me?

Any ideas?

No.

Didn't think so.

I will find the answer to that question.

One day.

GERMAN DEMOCRATIC SECTOR OF BERLIN
ENDS IN 7M

ATTENTION!
YOU ARE NOW LEAVING WEST BERLIN

HOW WE WORK TODAY
DETERMINES OUR LIVES TOMORROW!

You go on and play.

Manfred.

Bloody hell.

Fielding.

Thank god, you're here.

I can hardly believe it.

Now I feel this may actually happen.

I'd like to shake your hand but...

Stasi today.

Some days they follow me,
some days they don't.

You brought Traudl and Birgit along.

Traudl is worried sick.

Maybe you can calm her a bit.

Don't worry.
I'm here to make everything possible.

You can relax now.

It's impossible. I'm afraid.

Meet me behind that building in two minutes.

Two minutes.

Please do me a favor.

Could you please look at me?

Can't you see that I'm here
with my wife and my daughter?

We're spending some free time together.

Don't you think it would be
appropriate to leave us alone?

Just for the afternoon, maybe.

We would've just come over--
-I know.

They really want this thing you've made.
-Yes.

They want you and your magical machine,
whatever it is.

What is it?

It's an inertial navigation system.

A fluid suspended gyro-stabilized platform,
to be precise.

Too precise for me.
-Yes.

Anyway,

each week I took a component
and brought it to my apartment.

It wont take much longer until they find out.

I can put it all together,

but it's very fragile, very delicate.
-How big is it?

It can fit in two trunks,
you know, like cabin trunks.

Everything has to be
very carefully packed.

The fragility is incredible.

Without the physical components,
I can't recreate the platform.

What exactly does
your famous fluid suspended gyro...

thingy do?
-It gives a missile incredible accuracy.

To within a few meters.

So if you were to land on the moon--
-Or drop an atomic warhead on a city?

Yes.
-Or shoot a bomber from the sky?

Exactly.

Nothing has this precision.

Nothing until now.

Well, I can see why you're so popular.

Can you do it?

It's a problem we can solve.

So good you have come.

Can you do this job with no risk?

We try to eliminate risk.

We have much experience.

But when can you--
-Traudl, please.

They watch us.
If they catch us, it would be terrible.

Terrible for us all.
-They're not going to.

I promise.

Hello, Birgit.

I've got a gift for you.

Thank you.

English chocolate.

There's lots more where that came from.

You can never be too careful.

Fielding, I think maybe--
-Yes, yes... I should go...

change into a new set of clothes.

You're not really a diplomat, are you?

What are you, some kind of spy?

I'm a diplomat.

Just with very good associates.

Hey, you!

Come over here!

Sorry about this.
Your name wasn't on the diplomatic list.

Stupid error.

They called to check.
I came as soon as I could.

This is Herr Hempel.

He's been helpful with the paperwork.

Thank you.
-My pleasure, Mr. Scott.

This shouldn't happen again.

Thanks a lot.
-Gentlemen...

Who is he?

A detective.

We needed police authorization
for a handover.

They wouldn't just give you to me.
-That's good to know.

CITY TOUR OF WEST AND EAST BERLIN
DEPARTS HOURLY

ENTERING BERLIN'S BRITISH SECTOR

WEST BERLIN
BRITISH SECURITY HEADQUARTERS

Morning, George.
-Morning.

Any news on Beethoven?
-Getting there. Tea?

Please. Petrie's getting a bit obsessed.

God, is he? Is he joining us?

You bet. Wouldn't miss it.

Talk of the devil.
-Scott, Brotherton.

Saw the CIA coming up the stairs.

Are they happy?
-Well, let's just get Beethoven out.

Then we can all be happy.

Morning, gentlemen.

Torrance. Greetings.
You know these two.

This is Conrad Greer, arrived last week.
-As far as anyone knows.

Fielding Scott, as I live and breathe.

You two know each other.
-Far too well, I'm afraid.

Palermo last, right?
-No, Taormina. '44, February.

You were in that bar--
-Jesus Christ.

Let's not talk about it.
-Yes, I think it's time.

One city, four armies.
-Well, that's its appeal, isn't it?

Glad to see your job hasn't changed. Welcome.
-Thank you.

The French are joining us, aren't they?

Yes. We can always rely on the French
to be running slightly late.

How was Vienna?
-"Frustrating" would be

an excellent word for it.

Has Beethoven made a final decision yet?

Yes, he's ready. Anxious, of course.

Wants us to move fast.
-Gyroscope?

Yep, all packed up.
-Good, sooner the better.

Max, you finally join us.

Bonjour
-Bonjour.

We are running a smidgeon late,

as you would say.

Max Delavaney,

Conrad Greer.
-Pleasure.

Nice to meet you.
-Bonjour.

Sometimes I think we should
have little flags here.

Why would you think that?
-Make it all a bit more jolly.

"Jolly"...
-I vote for flags.

It's meant to be a joke.

My apologies, there was some small confusion

with my pass, it seems.

Hello.

I'm Fielding Scott.

I'm liaising with Beethoven.
-Have we got a photo?

Just so Conrad knows
who we're talking about.

So...

That's Beethoven, huh?

Sorry, I wasn't responsible
for the code name.

Has Beethoven decided where he's going?

Yes, he's insisting on Oxford University.

Is that a problem?
-No. Glad to have him.

After he's delivered
his commodities, of course.

I have another meeting
with Beethoven coming up.

He's getting desperate.

He wants us to move fast.

Right. So how are we going to get him

and his wonderful guidance system out?

Madam Bloch, what do you think?

What?

When should we get him?

I suggest one day
during this reception coming up.

Everyone will be in Potsdam.
It's a perfect moment.

I can use our usual team.
They're very efficient.

Beethoven is there.

We'll go straight to the American zone,
the shortest distance.

Is it cleared with them?

Conrad will be on that, won't you, Conrad?
-Yes, sure.

Then, once we're over,
we deliver the package to you.

I'm really sorry,
but I have another meeting.

So I best be going.

Keep me posted, will you?

Bye.
-Bye. It's been a pleasure.

Can I get you a drink?

I know...

a very nice place.

Severine, I'm so sorry--

I've been waiting 14 months to do that.

I thought you were dead.

I couldn't contact you.

It would've been dangerous for us,

for you.
-No, no, sorry.

You could've told me after the killing.

I thought it was you, fool!
-I was flown--

I thought you were dead.

I was flown out of Berlin
two hours after the incident.

Just kicked out--
-I walk in and see you there.

How was I meant to feel?

I completely understand if you want walk
out this door and never see me again.

I'm so, so sorry.

Hi there.

Hotel Kaiser...

I never thought we would be back here.

Here we are making
the same bloody mistake.

I still don't understand

why that British agent tried to kill you?

Haldane...

No, neither do I.

But I am going to find out.

If they tried to kill you once,
maybe they'll try again.

No.

Everything's changed now.

My position, my responsibilities, I think.

But I am being very careful.

You killed a British agent.

I don't think they'll forgive you or forget.

But I haven't forgotten either.

That's what they should worry about.

Did you miss me?

No, not for a second.

You expecting anyone?
-No.

Reinhart, it's me.

Shit.

I'm sorry. It's Georg, the guy from the club.

What does he want?

He wanted to discuss the songs
I'm playing.

You can't be serious.

Coming.

Hello.
-Hello

I brought some booze.

Sorry.
-Should I come back later?

No, come in. This is my girlfriend, Eliza.
-Hello.

You're leaving?
-I've got to get back west.

I'm looking for a man, a German.

His name is Klaus Fiesler.

And I need your help to try and find him.

Who's Klaus Fiesler?

He was an SS officer in Paris

from the end of 1943 to May 1944.

He tortured my husband to death...

over a period of ten days.

My husband, Francois Bloch.

He was in the Resistance.

I'm so sorry. I didn't...

They wouldn't let me see his body.

I think the mutilations were so bad.

But I was given his ring.

So I knew.

Klaus Fiesler returned to Germany,

and in 1945 he disappeared.

But I've been looking for him.

And now, I know I've discovered...

that he is here in Berlin,

living under an assumed name, of course...

somewhere in the British sector.

I see.
-Yes.

So I think... I hope...

that you may be able help me find him.

This is Fiesler?

Yes, that's the last photograph
we have of him.

The fact that he's out there,
somewhere in Berlin,

living an ordinary life
is a kind of obscenity.

He needs to be caught...

and brought to justice.

WANDLITZ FOREST
OUTSIDE EAST BERLIN

Go on. I'll catch up with you.

No, it's alright, just a little cramp.

Hey!

Excellent idea. Everything okay?

No, there's Stasi out there every day now.

We were right to be careful.

Let's go down here.
I can rejoin the others this way.

Imagine if I'd stayed in England...

And now I'm running to England.

But I don't think Traudl can take much more.

What?

You hear that?

No.

Like an engine.

You can rejoin your friends this way, yes?
-Yes.

Just go on, fellas!
I'll go check on Manfred.

Is everything ready?

All the components?
-Yes, packed and ready.

Everything?
-The whole thing can be assembled.

I have every part I need.

Good. It's important.
-This way.

So when? When do we go?
-Any day now.

Ah, Mr. Ziegler,

out for a cross-country walk?

Who is your friend?

I'm a British diplomat.

Let me show you my passport.

I got lost.

This gentleman was kind enough to help me.

This "gentleman" is in serious--

Manfred!

It's my friend. He's come to look for me.

Where are you?

Manfred!

Manfred!

Fielding, what do we do?

Fielding, no. You can't do that.

He has two little children. Please don't.

Alright, then.

We have to move fast now.

Before they find him.

We go tomorrow.
-Tomorrow?

Yes, tomorrow!
12:00 hours. Midday. Be ready. Go!

Rudi! Here I am.

Just taking a leak.

Everything alright?
-Yes, I'm doing better.

Thanks.

What's going on?

What are you thinking?

We have to do the Beethoven move today.

My god, today?

We planned for Wednesday.

Why the change?
-Circumstances have changed.

Alright...

if you say so.

Let me see if my team can organize--
-No. No team.

Just you and me. Everything's organized.

What's going on?
What are the circumstances?

Are you sure? I mean--
-Yes, I'm sure.

Today.

You and me. Noon.

We get Beethoven.

POTSDAM

Yes, indeed, Comrade General, we would

like to draw to your attention
to these recurring incidents.

It doesn't help anyone if civil aviation
in and around Berlin seems to be...

what can I say?
Something of a hot potato.

These air-corridors have been acknowledged
internationally for years

It might be a good idea
if we all agreed to the same formalities...

Are you ready?

Let me tell you a little story...
-Yes.

...about a pilot.

His name was Wozniewski...

And anyway...

This will go on
for at least another two hours.

See you outside in five minutes.

And anyway, this guy...

So, fellas...

MOVERS*

Shit.

We should go.

Get out of here.
-No.

Third floor, now!

They've gone. Or been taken.

How do you know?

You said they were ready.

Manfred?

Let's get out of here.

Fast.
