All language subtitles for The Border s03e06 Kiss and Cry

No more breaking in.

Previously on The Border.

Mom and I are tight.

You and me, not so much.

Are you saying you want to move in?

Mom runs a refugee shelter, remember?

I've been around political exiles and
torture victims my whole life. This

is in my blood.

When did he stop wearing boxes? Probably
around the same time he became a major

horndog.

This could not be served for profit, not
political, Mom.

Stay down. It's still hot.

We have them. They're alive.

This is where the magic happens.

Bad hair, the sequins, the smelly feet.

Who's that?

Yuan Dao, one of the top Chinese
skaters. We're doing an exhibition tour

warm -up for the Olympics.

That's pretty good.

Strength, speed, beauty.

His cup overfloweth.

New love interest?

No, if only.

He's straight.

Come on, you can meet him.

I should warn you, though, he's got
Handler, and they're all over him.

How are you doing?

Look at her.

Has she not carried perfection to
dizzying extremes?

Tristan.

I think you are embarrassing your
friend.

With Tristan, humiliation is a part of
the package.

I am, you undoubt.

Zoe Kessler.

Oh. Who's he?

Another cultural attache? That's what
the secret agents like to be called.

Secret agents and their spies?

Guan Bu.

Chinese secret service. Please, they'll
hear you.

Why don't you two chickens talk amongst
yourselves?

I have to pee.

Excuse me.

I thought you skate.

You're beyond amazing.

Do you skate?

Not since I was, like, ten, and then I
fell and broke my wrist, and then I just

disappeared into the whole ballet thing.

And why am I telling you all this?

Whoa! Hey!

Oh, my God, Tristan.

What are you doing? Look, I thought it
was out. I'm sorry.

I know you shouldn't smoke.

Hey, it'll stop me.

Let's go.

What the

hell is going on?

If you please, Miss Kessler, I would
like to defect to Canada.

Olympia, you gave very, very good.

She got cable just to

watch me.

Sit. I'll make you supper.

You're safe here.

You say good luck and everything, but I
gotta go.

Tristan said your father would help me.
That he would let me into the country.

What?

This is some kind of a setup?

Tristan didn't talk to you, did he?

I make you lehan zhang soup.

She's not answering.

This dinner was her idea.

Not that I didn't want...

How about I pour you another glass of
water?

Sure.

So, Zoe tells me you've turned into a
major horndog.

I have to know my love life is keeping
you both entertained.

Do you mind if we turn this up?

Yeah, sure.

The hip.

Upper stage.

You took me to the horseshoe to see
them.

Her son is gonna leave.

And that's where he will stay.

It's not much, but it's all I got.

I can't take the money.

I'm sorry my dad can't help me, but even
if he could, he wouldn't.

He would set a precedent. People using
me to get to him.

You get that, right?

Yeah, of course.

You must be seriously saying this. That
woman is staring at you.

She's going to Chinese secret service.

Are you sure? She's not following us.
I'm sure.

This is Toronto, not Beijing.

How many Chinese spies do you think
there are in Canada? I don't know, 20.

Your own government says the number is
over 1 ,000.

They use surveillance to monitor Chinese
people all over the world. And you

learned all this on an ice cream?

Look there.

And there.

Surveillance cameras.

Not so many as in China. And you don't
go to jail if you say the wrong thing.

But your government watches you too.

You're not just a figure skater, are
you?

In some Chinese cities, there is one
camera every 50 feet. Many were designed

here, in Canada.

at 41st in Metro Toronto this year.

Rumors began to swirl early this evening
when Yuan Dao, a Chinese skating star,

failed to make an appearance at an
exhibition performance at the Air Canada

Center. Two eyewitnesses report seeing
the skater leaving a midtown arena in

company of a young woman this afternoon.

Chinese officials claim he's indisposed
with a sudden illness.

Yet another plan to revitalize Toronto's
waterfront has been halted due to a

lack of federal and provincial funds.

Metro Council has begun to question
whether the long -dreamed -of...

Oh my God, this is it.

The guacamole.

Secret ingredient.

It's tequila.

You got any lime juice and triple cup?

Perfecto. Mm -hmm.

Yes, sir.

The Chinese have lost their star skater.
Well, I was careless of them.

Is that a joke?

Because the Chinese ambassador isn't
laughing.

He practically accused us of poaching.

Can't this wait till morning?

Sweetwater Systems is about to sell half
a billion dollars worth of fiber optics

to Beijing.

The Chinese take their Olympics very
seriously.

Let me guess. No skater, no deal.

The ambassador's exact words.

Must have pissed off the emerging
superpower.

With the U .S. down for the count, China
may be our only way out of this

recession. One A -wall athlete is not
going to bring down the Canadian

Let me make this simple for you.

Find the skater.

Now.

Wow, you practically made it halfway
through the main course before a

crisis erupted.

This is not a crisis.

Zach, let's turn this baby off.

Now where were we?

Lime juice in triple sec.

So you're defecting because you like
freedom?

That is correct.

And not because you like money?

In China, I am actually quite rich.

I drive a Porsche with a GPS system that
is monitored 24 hours a day.

You know Tai Chi?

Way too mellow for me.

I like kickboxing.

Tai Chi is kickboxing in slow motion.

I'll show you.

First, you enter a state of balance and
relaxation.

Feet together.

Hands like so.

Feel your body grow and dissolve as you
empty your mind of thought.

Now, slowly shift your weight onto your
right foot and step

up.

Like so.

Oh, no.

I was saying it ain't so -so.

I

should

go.

Oh, you don't have to.

See, you are a horndog.

I just forgot how good this feels.

At least let me help you clean

the dishes.

Leave.

I'll be the editor -in -chief.

And you pay me too.

That's the deal.

Thanks for dinner.

Now here's what I can do for you.

There's a focus group.

Your mother must be a great woman.

She started this place when I was three.

I used to play hide and seek with these
kids who survived the Rwandan genocide.

You are an interesting girl.

It's kind of cool watching people get
their lives back.

So don't worry. She is here with me, and
she is fine.

Okay? Bye -bye.

Your father turned off his phone.

Seriously? Mm -hmm.

I don't think he's going to be too happy
when he hears about Dow.

Can Dow stay here tonight?

We're short -staffed and full up with
real refugees?

Tao's real. He's got half the Chinese
Secret Service after him. Come on, Zoe.

He's a figure skater looking for a more
lucrative contract.

That's what I thought, but he's already
got a Porsche.

It's just one night. Please?

All right, he can sleep on that couch in
the common room, and you can do some

extra volunteer shifts.

I'll start tonight.

You go home and sleep off the tequila.

Huh? That is lime on your breath, right?

Two little margaritas.

I found these.

Toothpaste, new toothbrush, razor, even
dental floss.

I'm big on flossing.

Thank you.

I couldn't dig up any pajamas, though.

I never wore them.

Good to know.

What are you doing?

Sending emails to my friends in Beijing.

So they don't worry.

You could use my phone to tweet your
friends.

In China, they stop Twitter.

Too hard to monitor. I follow like six
people and they're too hard to monitor.

I think you're a kind person, Zoe.

And very brave?

Not me.

Hello, darling.

Happy to see me?

Always.

To what do I owe the pleasure?

I had a sudden urge to congratulate you
for making it out of that wretched

country alive.

Tequila?

Two glasses?

Two plates.

Entertaining someone, were we?

I had dinner with my ex -wife.

The lovely woman I met at the hospital.

Zoe invited her.

You looked away for a moment.

Nothing if I was guilt.

I could just disappear.

You'd condemn yourself to a lifetime of
wretched jobs.

No health care, no legal rights.

Always looking over your shoulder.

If he files a claim, how long before
they send him back?

This is a high -profile case. The board
will move quickly. The Chinese consulate

will request detention.

You can have him remanded to your care.

Hang on a second, honey. Dad can
recommend it.

I know I'm not supposed to ask him, but
just this once.

He'll be under a lot of pressure from
the Chinese embassy.

I think he'll do the right thing.

Has it heard from Zoe recently? Like
last night, say?

She was with her mom. What?

Oh, that is such good news.

What was the skater there, too?

The skater?

Yuan Dao, the missing Chinese athlete?

Don't they make a cute couple?

Maggie, have you seen this?

Is that Zoe?

Court is my ex -wife. She spent the
night at Haven House.

I'm guessing the skater's there, too.

Do me a favor and arrest all three of
them.

No need. Zoe and Skateboy just pulled up
outside.

Zoe, I like the wood.

Because you might.

Helping a famous Chinese athlete defect
right before Canada hosts an Olympics.

Would you calm down?

You are the daughter of the head of
immigration and customs security.

The Chinese are always looking for
insults, but this, this is practically

spitting in China's face.

It just happened so fast. One minute I
was standing with my friend, and the

I'm being chased by spies.

You were set up.

Maybe.

But Dao is really amazing, and if he
goes back now, they'll put him in

There's a delegation here from the
Chinese embassy led by Deputy Minister

Holland.

What's going on?

You can't hand him over.

Go home, Zoe. You've done enough damage
to international relations for one day.

At least let me say goodbye.

Make it quick.

What need your passport?

It's hailed by my team manager.

Do you have any ID?

I'm sorry, Miss Castle, my throat is
very dry.

I'll see if I can find you a glass of
water.

Those men will kill me.

What? You were right. I am not just a
skater.

I am also a freedom activist.

Two days ago, my friend was arrested and
tortured.

By now, he will have given them my name.

Thank you so much for meeting with us. I
can't tell you how highly Canada values

its good relations with your beautiful
country.

I understand Yuan Dao is here, in this
building. He is indeed, and I'm very

happy to be able to return him to you.

He's filling out a refugee declaration.

It could take weeks to reach a hearing.
Or days.

We'll do everything we can to expedite
his case.

So long as his legal rights are upheld.

Major Kessler likes to do things by the
book.

I apologize.

I'm afraid it is I who must make the
apology. We've just received news from

Beijing.

I'm afraid Yuan Dao is a violent
terrorist.

This photo was found in the possession
of a terrorist we arrested two days ago.

Yuan Dao is with Dokkan Issa, number
three on China's most wanted list.

Yuan Dao could provide information.

You mean under torture?

Nature.

I'm feeling a little sensitive about
torture these days.

I can only find... Cola.

You should go back. You can tell them I
overpowered you.

Add this.

I can assure you, we will do everything
we can to make sure that this young man

is brought to justice.

Canada has no desire to become a safe
haven for terrorists.

Isn't that right, Major Kepler?

Major.

Absolutely.

Perhaps if I speak to Juan now...

I can persuade him to drop this refugee
nonsense. No.

I beg your pardon? He's already been
taken downstairs for processing.

I can wait. It's not our policy to
conduct joint interrogations with the

Protocol.

What can you do?

Apparently even I'm powerless to
circumvent it. So I see.

Well, shall we leave ICF to continue its
processing?

This way, gentlemen.

What the hell's going on here? You tell
me.

I leave my client alone for five
minutes, you people spirit him away.

Where is he?

Down in the cells?

Zoe just slept with him in my car.

And according to the Chinese, he's a
dangerous terrorist.

My dad knows we're gone.

I must leave you before I bring you any
more trouble.

To what, you disappear and I never see
you again?

Hey, I don't like that.

Neither would I.

Is that Cherry Street?

Number 107.

Hey, isn't that Mrs. XK's shelter?

Haven House.

Is Zoe with you?

She's not here.

What's this about?

She just absconded with Dao, who the
Chinese claim is a Uyghur terrorist.

I'm not convinced there are any Uyghur
terrorists.

And Dao's a Buddhist, not a Muslim.

How do you know?

He turned down a chicken sandwich.

Joked about not wanting to eat his
reincarnated grandmother.

When they get there, call me. Which
should be soon. They're parked outside.

Okay.

What's going on?

Dad was going to hand Dao over to the
Guambu. They want to kill him.

Why would they do that?

In China, I'm a freedom activist.

It is very inconvenient for the
government.

They told ICS you were Uyghur.

I admire the Uyghur people, but I am Han
Chinese.

Yuan Dao and my daughter and him, let's
go pick them up.

Yes, sir.

Slade, see if you can find a link
between our skater and Uyghur

can start with this photo.

Well, it's in Photoshop.

See? Dowsing lit by a flashball that
everybody else is in natural light.

Angry DM at 9 o 'clock.

Is that Mike Schmidt from Sweetwater?

He's like a telecom giant.

Well, now that I see him in person, he's
actually kind of short.

No, make no mistake.

The 21st century belongs to the Chinese.

They're growing at an incredible pace
and using their massive U .S. dollar

reserves to buy up huge chunks of the
planet. Canada needs to get in on the

ground floor or we'll be out of the
game. We can become China's go -to

for telecom. If we fail, in ten years
we'll be buying our fiber optic cable

them.

And all this hinges on one young figure
skater.

Beijing seems to think so.

You care about this guy, huh?

He's just so good.

Everything about him.

You've been wrong before.

There were always red flags. I just
chose to ignore them.

Couldn't you have fallen in love with an
accountant?

Don't let them take him, please.

HPS, open up.

Take my car. I'll stall them. You go.

Can I help you?

Yeah, we're here to pick up you on Dow.

Who? We know he's here. You're harboring
a fugitive.

Must step out of the way, Terry.

Not without a warrant.

This is nuts.

Boss? No problem.

Put Zoe on the phone.

Not without a warrant. My ex -wife wants
a warrant so I can speak to my own

daughter. Well, there goes that co
-parent of the year award.

If what the Chinese say is true, Zoe
could be in danger.

Mike, I've spent the last 20 years
dealing with just about every kind of

there is.

I can tell the good from the bad.

I found the original of that Uyghur
shot.

And Yuan Dao ain't in it.

Here, just to show you how easy it is.

The deputy minister meeting with Bin
Laden. Hey, check out that tie.

That's sweet.

Thank you. I will be there.

Did Tristan rent the car?

He's lending me his.

Right.

If I were honorable, I would turn myself
in to clear your name.

I don't give a shit about my name.

Hello there.

Planning a little trip?

Charlotte Bates.

You'd be the skater that's got
everyone's knickers in a twist.

You're in doubt.

If you're going on the run, you'll need
money.

You'll need to stay in touch. Do you
have a phone?

No.

Take this.

Can't be traced.

And why exactly are you helping us?

Just consider it my contribution to
young love.

Thanks.

Michael. No, no, I've just got in.

It's no sign of her.

Your little birds must have flown.

There he is.

I hate this.

I thought maybe my country was hard.

Hard.

It's a trap!

Hey, sweetheart.

Dad.

How is he?

The bullet missed his femur. He should
be able to skate again.

Not this Olympics.

Could you give us a few minutes? I need
to ask Tristan some questions.

Don't be hard on him, okay? He's a
friend.

Arrest me now.

Put my conscience out of its misery.

It's bothering you?

I lied to Zoe.

And exposed her to all these crazy
people with guns. You lied?

Well, I certainly left things out.

Like how it was Shun Li, one of the
cultural attachés who set up Dao's

How Shun Li knew that Zoe was your
daughter.

And how he paid me a thousand pieces of
silver.

Or loonies, in this case.

You sold my daughter out for $1 ,000.

I should have asked for at least five.

This is not a joke, Tristan. Believe me,
I know.

I may never skate competitively again.

The Chinese agent paid you to introduce
Dao to the daughter of the head of ICS.

What does that suggest to you?

You think...

Yuan Dao is a Chinese spy?

Maggie, we need a sweep of the office.

Especially the boardroom and wherever
else Yuan Dao might have been, including

my apartment.

And pick up the attaché, Shen Li.

Your friend Dao bugged our apartment.

I don't believe it. The sweet teens had
a transmitter in our lamp.

Then it got there some other way. Dao
wouldn't do that. He's a spy, Zoe.

Everything, the defection, being chased
for the Guam boo, it's a show away for

the Chinese to infiltrate ICS. That's
crazy.

Do you know how many Chinese dissident
immigrants we have in our database?

Do you think Dao pretended to love me so
he could spy on you?

Love. He's out there right now being
chased by men with guns, and instead of

helping him, you're turning him into the
enemy.

Could you just take me to Haven House? I
want to see Mom.

He's Guan Bu.

That's hardly a surprise.

Educated in England, he read history at
Cambridge.

Really? Which college?

Trinity. What is that scent you're
wearing? Is it lemon with a hint of

I don't wear scent.

Really? Who was Schindler's tutor at
Cambridge?

Uh... Oh,

here it is.

Sir John Merriday.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

We know you're with the Chinese Secret
Service.

Then you should know I am but one of a
thousand grains of sand, and none of

know what the other grains are up to.

Did you enjoy your time at Cambridge?

I studied under Sir John Meridae, the
legendary spymaster.

While he was at Cambridge, he turned
dozens of KGB, Stasi, and Guamble

We think you're one of them. A double
agent.

Looking for MI6.

What an extraordinary idea.

What does MI6 want with a Chinese figure
skater?

Look, you people should really consider
writing fiction.

My God, you're all right.

They went after Dow. They want to kill
him.

We put out a bulletin alert. I'm sure
we'll find him.

Dad thinks Dow is some kind of spy.

What?

I don't believe it. He's a good guy
working for people's freedom.

I have to take this.

Yes, look.

You know, your father is a good guy who
works for freedom.

He used to be, maybe. These days he's
cynical and paranoid.

Well, his job doesn't help. Every day he
sees the worst people can do to one

another.

Dow used your computer.

We'll need to examine it.

Not without a warrant.

So we.

This is a refugee center. It's supposed
to be safe from government spying.

Obviously, our investigation will be
strictly confined to one of Dow's

activity. And she's supposed to believe
you?

If Dow hasn't done anything wrong, you
won't have anything to hide.

Just so you know, it's the same argument
China uses to pry into people's lives.

This kid has major proxy for Kung Fu.

In the past 20 seconds, I followed him
through Amsterdam, Singapore, Sao Paulo,

and Johannesburg.

Whoa!

Dead end.

What is that? Onion router?

Peels away the user's identity one layer
at a time.

Our skater's a geek.

What? Muscle definition and geekhood are
mutually exclusive?

We're not all mouse potatoes.

Oh, he switched to Siphon.

Siphon? It's an open source web proxy to
bypass content filtering.

Wow.

What? He's hacked into the surveillance
cameras at Sweetwater Systems.

Sweetwater designed that software. I
mean, it's supposed to be uncrackable.

Some kind of industrial espionage?

Uh -oh.

Check out the directory.

What? He's also disabled Sweetwater's
state -of -the -art patented security

system. As of 1109, the premises have
been completely unprotected.

Run the surveillance sheets.

We've had a security breach in
Sweetwater's system. Possible robbery in

progress.

There, stop.

Zoom in.

There's Waldo. Or should that be Waldao?

Who's that with him?

Is that... Sure.

You bugged Zoe's apartment.

I would never do that.

You staged your... to gain access to
Major Kessler's home. I am not a spy.

you are.

We're just not sure for whom.

Was it you who bugged my apartment?

Why must you take everything so
personally?

I'm not playing games, Charlotte.
Someone shot at my daughter. Now tell me

you're doing here.

I bought her the plane the minute I
heard you undoubted escaped his

MI6 had been trying to recruit him for
years.

How can you say you're not a spy? You
were caught red -handed. I wasn't

MI6 would love to get its hands on
Sweetwater's latest technology, so would

China, for that matter. China doesn't
need to steal it. Sweetwater's already

selling it to them.

Wait a minute. What technology are you
talking about?

There are hundreds of thousands, maybe
millions of surveillance cameras in

China.

Sweetwater has quietly developed
software that can cross -reference

-circuit feeds with a biometric database
so that anyone can be traced at any

time. That's not surveillance. That's
science fiction.

Under the Wassenaar arrangement,
Canadian companies can't sell

technology to police states.

It's never enforced. Politicians don't
care, not in this economy.

I thought maybe if we proved what
Sweetwater is doing, we could make

care.

I've been working with Sean Lee for
months to get Yuando out of China.

We planned his defection for the
Olympics, but three days ago another

was arrested in Beijing.

A hacktivist?

Chinese hackers who open up Internet
portals to the West.

Holes in the Great Firewall of China.
The authorities find the holes, patch

up as an endless game of cat and mouse.

You've put Zoe in danger.

I'm sorry about that.

I intended to collect our ICS. I didn't
think he and Zoe would go on the lam. So

you planted the bug?

I thought Dan might serve us at your
flat. If he did, I needed to know so I

could make contact.

So you and Dan's not a spy?

Quite the opposite. He's an amazing
young man, you know. His father was

in Tiananmen Square and his mother died
in prison.

He grew up in a state orphanage until he
showed enough skating talent to get

out.

Along the way, he developed
extraordinary computer skills, which

at great personal risk in the cause of
liberty.

For freedom.

Yeah, I've read about you guys. The
White Dragons.

Warrior geeks from the Shaolin School of
Hack Mastery.

May I offer you some advice?

You should check your system for
Wraithnet.

What's that? Is it like Ghostnet?

It's malicious code from China.

Infiltrated computers in 103 countries.

Took remote control of the computers'
mics and cameras and turned them into

bugs.

Raise next the upgrade. Look for HTTP
get request with CGI bin slash triple

in the string.

I write it down for you. The Chinese
call it the Golden Shield. It's an all

-encompassing surveillance network
incorporating speech and face

closed circuit cameras, smart cards, and
internet surveillance.

Which brings us to Sweetwater Systems.

Under cover their fiber optic deal,
they're about to sell China $50 million

worth of surveillance software.

Sweetwater's developed IdentiSeek face
recognition software that works directly

with surveillance cameras so that
anybody can be found anywhere at any

My guys threw together a demonstration.

Check it out.

There's our agent.

And here is what pops up when she's
located.

Jesus. In a centralized surveillance
network like China's, IdentiSeek can

anyone in seconds.

We think Sweetwater's already in talks
with Iran.

Well, what are we waiting for? Let's
drop the hammer.

Wilde needs to wake up.

Let's do it.

Well, congratulations.

In a recessionary climate, you've
tarnished a thriving business, created a

shitstorm in the press, and alienated
our fastest -growing trade partner.

We do what we can. And what does Canada
get out of it? A figure skater.

The one that can stay.

Oh, yes.

Minister Fleischer loves her skating.

I mean, he can't compete, of course, but
he's signed up to help coach the

Olympic team in Vancouver.

What the hell is this?

God, would you look at that tie.

What's going on?

I've only got a couple of weeks till
exams.

I thought I'd spend them with Mom.

Zoe.

I applied to do my master's at UBC.

So you could be with Daryl. Give it a
shot.

Can't hurt, right?

No, it can hurt.

Can we talk about this?

It was just an experiment, right?

Father -daughter thing.

I thought it was pretty successful.

You couldn't believe in me.

It's okay. I get it. I couldn't believe
in you either.

That trust thing.

Can we try again?

I don't know.

I love you, sweetheart.

So much.

Me too.

Sorry, Michael.

The two of you are so lovely together.

I should have trusted her instincts.

Hey, you have another chance.

Fathers and daughters have a long story.
You have a lifetime to put things

right.

Gotta go.

It's been a pleasure doing business with
you.

Don't let the bathroom get you down.

God, I'm so pathetic.

I love

this.

Clearly entranced.

You're leaving back now.

Defying destroyer limps into the bay
down at the beach.

It's attracting quite a crowd.

These kids went through blood out to it.
It bled me and made me scared.

You did what you set out to do. I'm not
prepared.
