All language subtitles for Deep State S02E03 Declaration of Independence1

Take out the translator,
that's all we asked you to do.

This is what the interpreter had.

There's a former MI6
officer here looking for her.

Who did you talk to, Adam?

I'm not abandoning her for a second time.

You think about the people

you serve, Senator.

They want me to back
off this whole Mali thing.

Everywhere your troops go in this war

on terror, it just seems

to get worse.

We're never gonna get anywhere

while she has the president's ear.

I need you to put a police van
inside this checkpoint.

Who is the president's closest ally?

Aminata Sissoko.

We have to bring the threat

to his front door, Joseph.

Get your guys to find Harry Clarke.

You follow him to Aicha.

If I know him, he'll find her.

Where are we going?

We have to get out of here,
out of Bamako.

Harry, she's in a bad way.

It's okay.

You idiots.

How did you let this happen?

How could you let this occur?

Jesus.

You want me to handle this?

Would you?

Please?

You are idiots. You see?

You see?

I told you.

I told you, do as I say, but no.

No, you wouldn't listen to me.

Okay, Joseph, take a breath.

Are you going to tell me to calm down?

I wouldn't dream of it.

Just tell us what happened.

Your fucking colleagues. They took her.

They killed one of my soldiers,

Corporal Keita, and then they took her.

And now they know what she
knows, it's a fucking mess...

The interpreter... was she wounded?

Yeah, so?

Where are you going?

Where the fuck is he go...?

Where are you going? What the...?

Adam, it's Nathan.

Tell me you found the bitch.

Not yet, but we got a lead.

We're up in the Nkomi district.

Any idea where Clarke would hole up?

Yeah, I've got
a pretty good idea, Nathan.

What the fuck are you doing?

I'm using my head, Joseph,
you should try it sometime.

There's an old sawmill
about a half mile north of here.

McKay had a security gig there,

he says Clarke knows the site well.

So why are we still here?

Come, come! Let's go.

All seven personnel

from the Mali operation two years ago.

- George White, he headed it up?
- Yeah.

But the Section's been mothballed.

Past eight months or so.

White, MIA, presumed dead.

Presumed?

No one's seen him since his car
was T-boned in West London.

Alexander Said.

Deceased... that one's pretty conclusive.

Stabbed in the neck
also about eight months back.

Harry Clarke?

Went private sector,

security contractor. Guess where.

Mali? Right.

Leyla Toumi, whereabouts unknown.

Is there anyone involved
in the operation that isn't

missing, dead, or back in Mali?

Although the protests that started

in 2011 were, for the most part,
nonsectarian,

clear sectarian
and ethnic divisions emerged

as a result of the armed conflict.

Okay, that's it.

Papers due Friday, people.

Elliot Taylor?

Who's this?

My name is Meaghan Sullivan,

I'm a United States senator.

How did you get this number?

I serve on the
Senate Intelligence Committee

here in D.C.

- Okay.
- I was wondering

if I could talk to you about Mali.

I only need a few minutes.

I can't talk to you, Senator.

Nothing sensitive, just
a-a bit of background infor...

Terms of my exit.

You must know that.

I can't help.

The second she's back
on her feet, I'm gone.

Will you stay in Mali?

I think that bridge may be burned, Leyla.

- Thanks.
- You're welcome.

What about you?

Honestly, I haven't got a
fucking clue what I'm gonna do.

Well, first time for everything.

Fuck, we have to move.

Sorry, Aicha.

- What?
- Got to go.

This way.

All right.

Clear.

They were here.

They could be anywhere.

Shit.

W-we missed them.

We missed them.

Put out a general call.

Police, army, roadblocks out of the city,

airports... I want them found!

We've already gone over this, Joseph.

If word gets out that Aicha's alive,

people start asking questions.

And where does that leave us?

"Us"?

"Us"?!

There is no "us," Nathan.

There is you over here.

And me...

over here.

You are an advisor.

- I tolerate you.
- Okay.

As your advisor...

can I ask you something?

Do you have a watch
on the interpreter's house?

If I know Aicha,
she will not leave this city

without her brother and her sister.

I've brought you some food.

Thank you.

Hey, Seydou.

- How is he?
- The same.

Are we going to have
to move out of this house?

Who's going to pay the bills?

You're gonna have to find work.

You can stay with me...

for a while.

And then?

- Here.
- Here?

Here.

- Are you okay?
- Yeah.

Thanks.

- You came.
- Of course.

Did you think we'd leave you?

You did before.

Yeah.

I'm so sorry.

You're here.

You saved my life.

Thank you.

You want to tell us what happened?

I found out our government
is selling arms to Al Moctar.

Jesus.

I took what I knew to a friend of mine...

Bintou Cissé... she worked for
the anti-corruption task force.

They were waiting for us.

They killed her
and now they are after me.

Hey, we can get you out of here.

And that's it.

It's not your business, right, Harry?

- No, it's not.
- But still you help me?

Might have something to do with me.

Look, we'll get you out of Bamako...

My brother and sister.

I will not leave without them.

If I leave them here alone,
they'll end up on the street.

I won't do that.

Leyla.

Excuse me.

We've done what we said we'd do.

You're not serious.

- She's safe.
- For now.

So you don't think they'll be
watching those kids?

- It's suicide.
- Christ.

You're actually fucking serious.

I'm not gonna leave her, Harry.

You've done what you said
you'd do... well done.

"We are calling your people.
Let's hope they pay."

They'll pay.

"If not,
you're worth less than my animals."

"You think I'm a monster."

"A terrorist."

"Come here."

"They don't give milk."

"Not anymore."

"There's no water."

"No grass."

"And what does the state of Mali do?"

You really think you can do that
with the bullet and the AK?

"Let me ask you."

"What would you do?"

Been enjoying the sights?

Been taking a leak.

There's a truck, over that
ridge, with the keys in it.

- Bad idea.
- We travel 90 minutes from the outpost,

northeast.
I'm telling you, we could do it.

Even if we could get
to the truck without being shot,

you think we can outrun them
across a hundred miles

of empty desert?

The money doesn't come through?

Maybe we don't have a choice.

It'll come through.

We need to expedite the payment.

We understand the seriousness
of the situation.

So let's pay the money and get them home.

25 million's hardly back-of-
the-sofa money, though, is it?

Hold on a minute. Am I missing something?

Are we not gonna pay?

Pay, and we place a price tag
on every agent in the field.

Might as well bankroll
future attacks on home soil.

"Home soil."

Baker Street, 2009.

Liverpool, 2013.

Philadelphia, 2014. Are you
familiar with George White?

- I've read his file.
- Then you know his record

of averted attacks. How many
lives do you think he's saved?

600, 700?

Marcus, you want to be the one

who left George White
in the desert over policy?

"Don't you have machines
to do this for you in America?"

Herding goats?

You have a funny idea
about America, my man.

Where did you learn how to fight?

"When he was gone,
we were not welcome there."

When did you come back?

"You ask a lot of questions
for a mining company man."

I'm just a man interested
in the world around me.

"Seems your people don't want you back.

They haven't paid."

"First light tomorrow morning,
I'll pick two from your group."

"One buries the other."

Come on. Come on, man.

These-these things take time.

Look, I-I can call them.

Just let me call them!

Anything around front?

Nothing yet, sir.

What about the back?

I will tell you when there is something.

Keep watching.

They're not coming.

Excuse me, I got to take this.

Morning, sir.

Night.

What's the problem?

Sir?

You went down there to get
the troop deal signed.

Troop deal's not been signed,

therefore I'm assuming there's a problem.

Would I be incorrect?

There's no problem, sir.

Wheels just turning a little
slowly, that's all.

Well, make them turn faster.

We lost a not-insignificant
amount of money

when the Tehran operation
went belly-up, Nathan.

Yes, sir, I understand that.

And I cannot afford

another failure.

If this doesn't go through,

lot of things are gonna happen
to you and me.

None of them good.

I got to move things along.

You stay here, keep an eye on him.

Make sure he doesn't fuck
this up for all of us, okay?

Couldn't stay away, could you?

I get it, I'm addictive.

Yeah, yeah, this is, all about you.

Went back to Aicha, did you?

She told me where to find you.

What have we got?

The kids are over there.

Down the street, three guys in a car.

Hey, kids.

We contact the neighbor, she can
get a message to the kids.

Get them to meet us somewhere
we can shake security.

We will take the kids

and flush the interpreter
out into the open.

I don't think that's a good idea.

I am sick of being ordered around.

I am sick of waiting!

Boubacar, change of plan.

Let me go! Get off me!

Come on, no! No, no!

No-no-no-no!

Where are they?

What happened?

I'm sorry.

- They won't hurt them.
- They're trying to force you

out into the open, okay?

Look, most likely, they've
already contacted you by now.

You should check your e-mails.

I feel sick.

Listen, we'll fix this.

How will we fix it?

- Where are you going?
- To hand myself in.

No, no, no.
Aicha, that is not a good idea.

- Seydou... he's not well, he needs me.
- You hand yourself in

to these people...
think what they've already done.

- Think what they're gonna do to you.
- Yeah, they'll kill you.

Who's gonna look after
Sonata and Seydou then?

You're no good to anyone dead.

Sissoko, okay?

The woman Bintou worked for...
Aminata Sissoko.

Okay? Why-why don't we go
to her? Maybe she can help.

How can we trust her?

I don't know, but it's
got to be worth a try.

Come on, Aicha.

We are not gonna give up, I promise.

I promise you that.

Hey, Nathan.

From Libya with love.

That's why he gets
paid the big bucks, right here.

Another strike and... Brown!

In the air at left field,

and that was hit well
and that's got a chance.

And this one's gone!

Aminata Sissoko?

I need you to see this.

You might want to take a look
at what's on it.

Show me.

She's alive. Check the date.

She's clean.

Joseph Damba's selling arms

to Issouf Al Moctar.

- That's some allegation.
- Yeah, there's evidence.

Aicha Konaté gave it to Bintou Cissé.

That's why they were ambushed.

They were the target, not the Americans.

- Where is this evidence?
- Aicha has copies.

- Text messages, a tape.
- She has Damba on tape?

She was translating in his department.

He didn't know the tapes were running.

Why should I believe you?

Somebody abducted Aicha's
little brother and sister

from her home.

They'll be witnesses.

You find those kids,
we give you the evidence,

and you decide for yourself.

My number's in that phone.

We don't find them within
the hour, they're dead.

Hey.

Darryl, could you take a look at this?

Sure.

I'm sorry, ma'am. I.D.'s been revoked.

- You're shitting me.
- Morning, Williams.

David?

Apparently I've been revoked?

- Sorry, Meaghan.
- You knew about this?

It's out of my hands.

Todd.

I'm off the committee, just like that?

No consultation, no three strikes?

I consulted you, Meaghan.
You didn't hear me.

And that's it?

Look, do your time in the box

and I'll bring you back in from the cold.

Precarious times, Meaghan.
Whomever we're backing,

we need alignment.

We're aligned, Todd.

So show me.

Just wind your neck in a little.

Can you do that?

Don't pull the plug on the fund-raiser.

Don't make me beg either.

You know it brings me out in hives.

I always knew you were a survivor.

Since when do you smoke?

I don't.

Filthy habit.

Todd Wilson's looking for you.

You know the great big bitch
of a catch-22

about this town, Jessica?

- We're doing this now?
- The more you're a part of it,

the less you can actually do.

Inside. Now.

I thought you bailed.

Now, would I do that to you, Todd?

It's a good crowd.

Right. Showtime.

Ladies and gentlemen,

I give you someone who needs
no introduction,

except to say that

she's never quit fighting
for what she believes in.

For American values,

for the American people.

Senator Meaghan Sullivan.

Thank you.

Thank you. Thank you, Todd.

And thank you all for being here
tonight for your support.

And for your love.

The next election will, in so many ways,

decide what kind of country
we leave for our children.

The nation we enjoy today

is the result of the hard work

and the sacrifice and the choices

of the men and women who stood
before where we stand now.

And so, we must ask oursel...

We must ask ours...

I was elected

class president when I was 12 years old.

I've been running for office ever since.

I've been lucky enough
to serve in the Senate

for the great state of Ohio.

In the U.S. Senate.

On more... councils and committees

than I can remember.

Hell, I can't even remember
what some of them were called

or what they were for...

or what they achieved.

What the fuck is going on?

And for what?

I mean, what have I got to show for it?

My name on a few bills.

And, sure, I made my mom proud.

My dad, too.

Well, until I came out.

As a Republican, I mean.

"Suck it up, sister."

"Think of your career."

Because, let's face it, that's
all I've ever really done.

That's why I get to stand
before you today

a fourth-term senator.

Truth is, you do that
by not achieving anything.

You do that by toeing the line.

All you ever really learn to do is win.

Right, Todd?

I am so tired...

of playing this endless game,

where nothing ever changes.

The same people win.

The same people lose.

And we just trot out
the same old platitudes

about how we're going
to change Washington,

and all the time we know
we're paying lip service

to the fact that we're
supposed to be a democracy.

We know that.

And as you may have gathered from my,

off-book ramblings here,

I won't be standing for reelection.

I'm sorry.

What the fuck was that about?

I've got six months
between now and the election.

I can do what the fuck I want,
they can't touch me.

That, Jessica, was a declaration
of independence.

It's Ansar Dine, al-Qaeda affiliate.

What's he saying?

He knows we're here.

He says we were found on his territory,

that we belong to him.

Hey!

- Aicha, what's going on?
- I don't know, I can't hear.

What did he just say to him?

Hello?

It's untouched.

Hello?

I know you are in there. Please.

I need you to help me.

Hel...

- My name is Aminata Sissoko.
- I know who you are.

Can I come in?

You saw something, didn't you?

Seydou and Sonata.

You know them, don't you?

Did someone take them away?

Did you see who did it?

I get it.

You're scared.

I get scared, too. Every day.

But right now I need you to help me.

Right now I need you
to help me find those children.

Did you see who took them?

Hey, pull up Damba's security detail.

Look.

Do you recognize any of these men?

Boubacar.

How's Fatima?

What's that?

Mouth a little dry there?

Where are those children?

I don't know what you're talking about.

Ooh!

You see, the mistake you are making

is to fear Damba more than you fear me.

Now, I'm going to ask you one more time.

It's Aminata Sissoko.

- Do you have them?
- No, not yet.

- Do you know where they are?
- Yes.

I'm heading there now.

Please.

Thank you. Thank you.

She knows.

Who knows what?

Sissoko.

She got to one of my guards. He flipped.

Flipped about what, Joseph?

About me taking the children.

Let me tell you, Nathan.

If I go down, you go down
with me, you understand?

Trust me.

I'm taking care of it.

You've said that before,
and nothing happens!

Do not fuck this up, Nathan!

Do not fu...

Come on.

Understood. It's a car bomb.

Were you serious about wanting out?

You thinking about it, too?

Well, this isn't
some country club, Amanda.

I don't get to just leave.

But if we get this deal over the line,

maybe Kingsley will let you go.

You think?

I can put in a word.

Please.

Our condolences, Mr. President.

Thank you.

Thank you very much

for seeing us, Mr. President.

We know what a difficult time
this is for you.

America,

with its eyes and ears everywhere.

We're happy to share what we have.

And what is that?

Our preliminary Intel points
to Al Moctar.

We've picked up significant chatter.

And as you know all too well,
it fits his pattern.

From what we can gather, sir,

this is the beginning
of a sustained campaign.

My own generals are nervous.

They tell me we need to be decisive.

And yet they can't defeat this... threat.

At least not alone.

From the president's lips,
he's signing the deal tomorrow.

Well, that's a result, Nathan.

If it's okay with you, we're
gonna... we're gonna head back.

I think 20,000 U.S. troops ought
to be an adequate replacement.

We'll take that compliment.

When can we expect the procurement order

to be authorized by the White House?

As soon as the deal is signed.

And, where are we on the number?

Well, if we can transition

the four temporary bases
into permanent ones,

we're looking at four and a half
billion dollars

over the next five years.

Good.

You hear the news about Sullivan?

Surprised everyone by announcing

she's not standing for reelection.

That sounds like congratulations
all around.

Maybe in the long run, but...

harder to control her now.

I like all my alligators

in the swamp.

Well, I find 'em much easier to target

when they're laying on the bank, sir.

I think that's something you might need

to make a priority on your return.

Most expensive leather
in the world... alligator.

And, Nathan?

Yes, sir.

Jones stays out there.

I want her to oversee the next phase.

Yes, sir.

What's going on?

Camp's under attack. Ansar Dine.

They've come for us.

Now's our chance.

- To do what?
- Truck over the ridge

to the south. Keys in it.

Isaac! Isaac!

Isaac!

Keys. Fuck.

They've stopped firing.

Come on.

- Got 'em.
- Come on.

Fuck.

In!

In! In!

Shit!

No!
