Get down on the ground. Previously on
The Border. DHS has a policy against

and continuing bonds of affection with
foreign nationals. Oh, we got close.

Deal by tomorrow. How much does he owe
you guys?

Eighty grand.

What? Come on, come on.

It wasn't personal. The operation was
classified.

The end justifies the means.

I think you're pissed because Shona kept
you in the dark.

She works for British intelligence. You
and I protect Canada.

Sex is part of her arsenal.

I want to make this work.

Despite my unforgivably blank heart.

The alarming rate at which global
warming is melting the polar ice caps is

just the environmental issue of our age.

It's a political time bomb.

25 % of the world's remaining gas and
oil lies beneath the Arctic Sea. And the

Northwest Passage will soon be navigable
year -round. My government's position

is straightforward and non -negotiable.
It is part of Canada's internal water.

this country are tired, tired of being
excluded.

Canada has deployed a submarine, the
HMCS Hanover, to the Arctic theater.

The Northwest Passage is within our
borders.

Ladies and gentlemen, we intend to
defend it.

And so forth and so on. Okay, this setup
is fine, but this key link's still in

my eyes.

Gentlemen, thank you.

Thanks for coming.

External affairs calls you show up.

Tough speech.

Yeah, it's a load of bullshit.

So you're going to make a liar out of me
there, or is ICS going to be able to

protect the territory?

Sure, no problem.

We need a few things.

Satellites, drones, icebreakers. Should
be ready in about five years. Give or

take.

You can thank President Hardass for the
I want it done yesterday.

Lame duck wants his legacy quack. Is
that why you pulled this conference

together so quick?

We got a real chance to get a U .S. sign
-up on Canadian sovereignty for the

Arctic. We've never had that.

Negotiations about the Northwest Passage
and the sovereignty of the Arctic

Islands are meaningless so long as we
are not at the table.

So I have a day and a half before the
foreign leaders get here, and everybody

wants a nice signing ceremony.

So the last thing I need is some
crackpot saying that there's already a

and we're just bending over taking it
from Uncle Sam.

Forcing Canada's claim will mean
millions in equipment monitoring

That's why we're looking for partners in
the private sector.

Ah, speak of the devil. Major Kessler,
I'd like you to meet our friend from

Turcotte Solutions.

I believe you two know each other. Yes,
I believe we've already met once or

twice. This conference is nothing but a
sham.

A secret deal already exists between
Canada and the United States. I know

to be true.

What's more, I have physical proof.

I stayed to be with you.

The conference is my excuse.

We won't go.

We won't go away.

I know it's sad.

But we'll go. We won't go.

We won't go.

So, is that all this is going to be? A
booty call.

All these nights I'm not going to answer
the door.

Yeah, I like that's going to happen.

Are we having the talk?

Apparently we are.

I think I'm the girl.

Well, I'm not in the girls.

I usually hate the talk.

I gotta think.

I'm gonna go for a run.

Hey, that's just Colin and the troops.

Someone's been calling for you, too.

Okay. Hop in. I'll give you a lift back
to my place. No, I want to go change.

And, uh, I'm closer to my place anyway.

Ray! This is yours!

You requested a meeting, Major?

There's an activist named Shani Ariak.

Does DHS have anything on her?

Nothing across my desk. She claims
there's a secret deal between Canada and

U .S. where we sell out on Arctic
sovereignty.

Sounds like your standard Canadian
conspiracy theory.

Says she has a copy of the president's
briefing book.

Secret service is going to go ballistic.

That's what I figured.

We'd like to bring her in, talk to her.

And you want me to run interference for
you?

You'll get a lot further with him than
we will.

I want a copy of the interview tapes.

Deal.

How about I accompany your agents when
you pick up Ariak? And if Secret Service

has a problem, I'll intervene.

Thank you. Do I know?

Agent Kerber?

Gentlemen, looks like I'll be riding
with you.

More the merrier.

I'm absolutely certain. The deal has
been done and we were shut out of the

process. It is not acceptable to the
Inuit people.

Any area?

They were with ICS.

Just wanted to talk.

Hi, guys.

Carver, DHS.

What's the Secret Service up to?

Talk here.

Better if you come with us.

Hey, look, I'd appreciate if you guys
helped me out here. We have orders.

And I have to maintain an ongoing
relationship with these people.

Look, it's just a friendly interview,
okay? It's strictly voluntary.

They don't look all that friendly.

That's why you better not come in with
us.

I'm sure I can get them to share intel.

I have the briefing document. It's real.

You know, it's best if we talk in
private. How about we all get in the

We're not going to let this go.

If there's been a breach... Give them a
little room.

That's all I'm asking.

We need talking points on how to enforce
the border in the far north. Two words.

Deputize SEALs.

We got a sub up there. What more do they
want? Yeah, I thought scientists were

sorting out all competing claims.

Based on the Continental Shelf or
something, what changed?

Fifty dollars more a barrel, and we'll
be there again.

Slate? Well, everyone's going all
chicken little over this supposed

deal.

I mean, look at the map.

America has only Alaska, right?

We have Arctic coastline of thousands of
miles.

So any deal with that Russia is no deal.
Pyotr Tsunovsky, Russian delegation,

big hardliner. They call him Dr. Nyet.

Charming. This one's quite a tasty
Danish, even if she does go all

get up in our grill.

We will support the EU's call for an
international treaty zone in the Arctic.

Any unilateral deal is a betrayal.

Nothing like a Dane.

Anybody?

No show tune references before 10. Good
to know.

Karen Swain, communications director for
Denmark's delegation.

Daddy's a close personal friend of the
king, not Elvis.

And last but not least, Perry Butler,
confrere of the outgoing U .S. press.

No, there's no deal.

We wouldn't be here with our good
friends to talk.

We're the deciders.

I don't know how to say it clearer.

Butler advised the Iraqi government.

Never got to hang a whole sheet of Sunni
thing, so you know he's a qualified

diplomat. I'll give a job, Brian.

Slade, where are the Norwegians?

On the tarmac in Oslo. It fogged in.

I like briefing notes on these three.

One more thing. Andrew Mannering is here
representing his new employer, Turcos

Solutions. What's his play?

Arctic surveillance is going to be a big
ticket item.

And guess who wants to land a fat
contract?

Private sector.

Must be nice.

I want a communication war room up
there. Slate, take what you need.

Hieronymus in the field.

Badass. Just one.

Backgrounders in the conference.

Bios of all the negotiators.

Geological reports. It's all in the
briefing book.

What about this agreement?

The U .S. throws support to Canada's
control of the Northwest Passage and the

disputed islands.

Then, a month from now...

Canada grants drilling rights, starting
in Greece Fjord, to American companies.

This is just like the tar sands.

And this is spelled out in the briefing
notes?

There's a memo of understanding between
Campbell's people and the Secretary of

State.

It's all in there.

He didn't say where he got this book.

All right, well, where is it now?

You let me go, I'll let you have it.

You're not being detained.

This is a voluntary interview.

Look, give us a minute, all right? We'll
give you a lift home.

I say she's making the whole thing up.

There's a lot of passion around the
issue of drilling.

She's attractive, articulate,
sympathetic.

It could be a disinformation campaign to
Patrick Campbell into not making any

concessions to the Americans.

You say you want her discredited?

No.

I just think it'd be nice if the truth
swung away.

This just

happened.

The Canadian sub, the HMCS Hanover,
collided with a Danish research vessel.

The accident occurred approximately one
hour ago, some 53 kilometers northwest

of Clyde River off Baffin Island.

They had to be squaring off against one
another.

They're flexing their muscles.

Reports say the sub partially flooded
and sank to a depth of 150 meters.

The Department of National Defense gave
no word on the number of fatalities.

Those subs carry a crew of, what, 35,
40? 48.

However, it appears that the damage to
the submarine is such that it cannot

resurface.

We are getting reports that there are 35
survivors.

But with main power out and air at a
premium, the question remains.

Cut off, alone, and far from home, how
long can the remaining crew members

survive?

The Prime Minister has spoken with the
families of the crew, and he's assured

them that the thoughts and prayers of
all Canadians are with them and their

loved ones. Currently, we are assessing
the rescue options, and we will keep you

apprised of any developments. Thank you
very much.

I have a short statement.

Russia has dispatched a rescue ship to
the accident site.

The Kozlov is equipped with a
submersible that can form a seal on the

-hatch. We will rescue the Canadian
sailors.

And this, ladies and gentlemen, is proof
that the Russian people stand ready to

keep that Arctic passage clear for
everyone.

Thank you. This is a nightmare. Good
thing no one's politicizing this.

Do we have another option?

Good afternoon.

Well, we could send 40 -year -old
helicopters.

We're toothless and feeble. We need help
from somewhere.

The Prime Minister's busted out his
yelling stick.

America's just sending a ship, too.
Yeah, but it's too far away.

The subs only got 22 hours of air.

Don't worry.

You know you can count on Mother Russia.

Though I must say, with these weather
conditions, I'm not sure anymore.

Our ship might be there in 15 hours or
24.

It is also very unpredictable.

How unfortunate that we must continue to
negotiate during this time.

But I'm sure we will find common ground.

I'll see you inside.

Okay.

Oh, this is getting dirty.

Russians always put the game differently
than we do.

At least tell me you've shut down that
Inuit woman.

Working on it.

I'll make a call.

Someone will bring us the book.

Oh. You and Agent Copper are plugging
your phones into the same charger now.

What? Well, I saw you this morning. That
little switch in the squad room, it was

adorable.

Jackson. Where the hell are you? I got
it. Wait.

Hey, you know, I work for a living, all
right? Okay, it's going down.

It's going down right now. Sweet God in
heaven, I'm telling you, right now.

Right now.

What is?

They're camping outside my place. I
tried to lose them. I cut through the

cleaners, but they still found me. Look,
I don't think they're going to stop

with the hand this time. Wait.

You can take that to the bank.

Dad, you been drinking again?

Look, what am I supposed to do, die in
the street this time? All right, look,

sit tight. I'll pick you up. Where are
you?

You know where the Don Jail is, right?

I'll be right out front. They won't put
me there.

What are you doing?

Look, I gotta go, all right? I'll be
back in 20 minutes. I promise.

Shawnee. Shawnee, let's go.

Shawnee?

One pump's working.

Captain and commander are missing.

The fire spread fast.

Instruments and batteries.

We figure we got 18 or maybe 19 hours.

We're calm.

The kid with the junior officer now is
in command.

Not on a research vessel.

We will stay in the area, maintaining
contact and offering any assistance we

can.

Well, there is nothing that we can do to
help. They're going to need a rescue

vehicle.

And my money is on the Americans.

I wonder what wound up on them for this.
You know, Uncle Sam, one hand stretches

out to help, the other hand he wraps
around your neck. Oh.

Oh.

Hi. Hi.

Sorry about your sub.

I can only imagine what your people are
feeling. Hopefully we can be of some

help.

Look, it's not that we don't appreciate
everything.

Have you got copies of the tapes of the
Eric interview?

Yeah, yeah, they're right over here.

Hey, if Gray and Layla come up with this
briefing book, let's make sure that we

see it first, okay?

Right.

All right, Dad, if you're going to lie
low, like belly low, okay, don't answer

the door or nothing. I've been on the
run before, okay? I've been to that

Huck. Believe me, I know that.

What you got to eat?

I don't know. There's some cheese in the
fridge, I think. Wow.

Couldn't you have thought of getting
some bread in, maybe some roast beef?

about even a little bit of chicken? No.

What does this look like, Swiss chalet?

What do you want?

Shit.

Dad, stay here. I got to go. Don't go
anywhere.

I heard you.

It's the processed cheese.

Now, if you want to turn that around,
you need a less glacial approval process

and technology from this century.

We also believe that the technology that
you pay for should actually work.

We already have an icebreaker gap.

The Russians are way ahead.

Do you know how many heavy icebreakers
you have, Mr. Butler?

I'll have to check.

One. The other's in pieces in Anchorage.

I can show you the satellite photos.

Now, if you want to control the
Northwest Passage, you need either heavy

or better technology, and that's where
we come in.

Major?

Ah, Major Kessler.

What's the latest on your boat?

Situation's stable for now.

They're waiting it out. We have, uh...

I think it's in Minnesota, in the
region. It's under full steam. We're

get to you as fast as we can.

Tanner appreciates the offers of
assistance from both the United States

Russia.

Excuse me.

Is SAS branching out into naval
intelligence now, Agent Bates? That man

global warming is caused by cows.

Idiot! They fiddle while gnome melts.

So has Canada really agreed to let the
Russians attempt a rescue?

I can't discuss it. These conferences
are all kabuki theater.

Every move and feint carefully
constructed and planned out beforehand.

Well, now we have ourselves a game
changer.

Excuse me.

Do not try to work me like that.

I'm sorry?

What exactly is your assignment here?

The whole bloody world has mistaken how
this plays out.

Don't trust Russia, I'll say that to
you. To your minister, I'll say that to

catering staff.

I suppose the UK has an alternative.

For your sailors?

No.

But isn't this show that you're simply
not prepared for what's coming?

Better to create a treaty zone, it's
best for everyone.

Those sailors are not bargaining chips.

Clearly, you haven't been paying
attention.

Aesthetics from the house and ground.

Nobody but the ident team goes inside
without my safety belt.

agents lapinski and williams are on
their way they'll leave the door -to

canvas put a team together to assist

Kessler.

Jesus, when?

Keep me informed. Let me know if you
find her.

We have a jamming net in the main
conference area.

It cuts the cell and BlackBerry traffic.

Standard package, we use the Devos G8. I
made a few tweaks. Nothing actionable.

Good work. Boss, I've been monitoring
the D &D channel on the Hanover.

Yeah? I have an overlay of the data
they're using and...

If you run it through the Victoria
-class schematics, you know, adjust for

density, number of survivors, there's
not enough time for the Americans to get

there. Yeah, I know, I know. And the
Danes are taking on water. They just

they got ahead for port, so are we going
to go on bended knee to the Russians?

That's what it takes.

Russian rescue doesn't exactly fill you
with confidence.

I mean, you know how many cosmonauts
they painted out of pictures back in the

day? A lot.

Underwater rescues are always risky.

I don't care if the 410 shows or not,
just make sure that somebody's there so

can talk to somebody. Dr. Campbell,
Shani Ariak is missing. It looks like an

abduction.

Did we recover this mythical briefing
book?

No.

Are we involved in this abduction?

Any number of people could have taken
her. That little girl's a big mouth.

Turkosolution has done such a great job
in Iraq and Afghanistan. It's not beyond

mannering to do something like this.

On our orders, I suppose. Don't be
absurd.

Can we help you?

I have information about Shani Ariak.

What's this?

I was left with instructions if anything
happened to her.

Do you know where she is?

No. All I know is she's gone.

Everything's January X said it was.

What's it? The big headline.

U .S. recognizes Canadian sovereignty
over the passage in exchange for a first

position on drilling.

This is smoking gun stuff.

So Campbell lied.

Well, that's the least of it, Mike.
Somebody disappeared this woman. Who was

I mean, the Americans, the Russians. Was
it us?

What are we caught up in here? I don't
know, but follow it wherever it leads.

No, no, no, no, no, no. They're
overstating by two, maybe three hours.

Unless somebody there does yoga.

Then again, you know, one
hyperventilator, an asthma, a mouth

are you of your calculations?

Well, it's not a science.

Math isn't a science.

There's so many different actuators.
Variable tides, wave drift. You have to

account for the differential in weather
patterns, relative temperature of the

water, of the ship displacement. Good,
the kinematics alone. Bottom line. I

don't know, but I wouldn't hold my
breath.

Which literally is the worst choice of
words ever.

Finished canvas. Nobody saw anything.

But we did get footage from a couple
doors down.

What's the source?

Nanny can.

Pointed out the back window had a great
view of the laneway. Guess who gave it

to us? The nanny?

Nobody was in or out 15 minutes before
or after the abduction.

You screened it already? Where?

On the bear.

So someone kidnapped Ariak on foot? That
doesn't make any sense. How'd they get

past two of you?

I wasn't there.

I left Sergeant Franny alone at the
scene to attend to some personal

Darnell, see if you can get anything out
of Cecil. Moose and Layla, I want you

to check out Shani Ariak further.

Check the tree. See what falls out.

Why don't you look at all the spooks and
fart -catchers?

Him, for instance. I mean, the man looks
like he still has the hanger in his

suit.

He's always the same.

All the real work happens over
cocktails.

A court is an assembly of noble and
distinguished beggars.

Fairly round.

Very good.

I'm still trying to figure out exactly
what you're doing here.

Why don't you just trust me?

Trust is not one of the things you and I
do well.

Well, if you're going to be that way...

Bates.

Charlotte Bates.

British trade commission.

Clifford. Holland.

Very pleased to meet you.

You lied to me, Minister.

About what?

The mythical briefing book is real.

It says exactly what Shani Ariak says it
does.

What the hell? She got her hands on it.

You're not even going to bother to deny
it. Why would you, Major? I'd adjust my

tone.

One shred of confirmation Canadians will
turn against this deal. It doesn't

matter now anyway.

Americans can't save the crew. The
Russians are the only ones who have a

We can talk in here.

Briefing looks genuine.

I'll need security as soon as possible.

We have to assess if we need to change
brush for our transportation protocol

tomorrow night.

There's nothing in there that would
compromise the president's security.

Wheels up, call signs, frequencies,
they've all been removed.

Did you or any of your men speak to
Shani Ariyak after this morning?

For the record, we don't discuss
presidential security.

Not even with money governments.

What about if this were off the record?

Secret Service.

They put them under the DHS, but they
don't think so.

Like oil and water. Well, we all have
our interagency politics to deal with.

Agent Sullivan took your word for it.
Didn't even flip through the briefing

book.

Seems a little strange, don't you think?

Does it?

Well, maybe not.

What's up?

Oh, it's okay. Great. We got it.

What? Boss doesn't have you in his
sights yet, but you pull another stunt

today and I'll come down on you like a
hammer.

Go home.

Major Kistler.

Miss Swain. It's been an eventful few
hours.

It's excitement I can do without.

Denmark has always wanted Arctic
sovereignty to go to the International

Justice.

So... This... conference had us worried
from the start, before the backroom

deals. I can't... Please, politics
aside, the situation with your submarine

changes everything.

It doesn't matter who's holding the gun
to your head, the US or Russia, it's not

right. Why approach me?

An honest face.

Small nations shouldn't be bullied.

Take a closer look at the Russians.

Your sailors are in danger.

More danger than you think.

And now the Danes are weighing in.
Jesus, the wheels are coming off the

Do you know any reason why Charisman
would give me that message?

It is chaos in there today.

Poor Butler thinks he's getting the
original deal. The Norwegians missed

connection to New York, and now... I get
word from the Chinese that any

concessions with the Russians is going
to be unacceptable.

Chinese.

There's any chance the Americans can get
there in time?

No, not according to maritime forces
Atlantic.

Halifax does the sailors have less than
11 hours.

I guess it's not.

You'd have to know.

Someone grabbed Shaniarek, and right now
the Russians are the prime suspect.

Must all.

And if you can tell the Russians to
react to this appearance, then I can

back.

Major.

Tick tock.

She worked on the Greenland file, spent
some time there, and her father is the

defense minister.

Worked the military angle.

What does she know?

Was Swain talking about a malfunction in
the sub?

Maybe, but... What? My source says there
were rumors the Brits also made an

undersea rescue vehicle protector class.

There's nothing on the books about it. I
still can't link it to the Russians.

Keep working it.

What the hell did you do?

Just trying to help you out. I had it
covered.

You ready?

Is he dead?

We lost one more scrubber.

Everybody's in their berths.

The battery's at...

with the crew of the Hanover. The Danish
vessel which rebroadcast that message

to the world is currently limping home.

For the last two hours, the microwave
pulse antenna broadcast only a series of

ghostly taps as the crippled sub
continues to lose power.

Michael?

Michael, are you here?

Ariak's impressive.

She testified before the Royal
Commission at 16, speaks three

journalism scholarship.

Walk on water, buy the world a Coke.
She's great. Luckily for us, she's into

recycling. Do you know Earth Act now?

Environmental group. Yeah, they staged
protests six or seven years back,

emphasis on the theatrical.

Shani Ariak staged some mock funerals at
mines. Five years ago, one went really

ugly and she went missing.

Headlines for days.

It was a stunt. She's just trying to
keep the media on the hook. And with the

sub -story pushing her briefing book out
of the news cycle...

Go with it, but fast. If this is a dead
end, I want to move on.

The Edward people of this country are
tired.

Tired of being excluded.

Negotiate.

Who's that?

That's the woman that gave us the
briefing book.

Let's find out where she lives.

Get dressed. You're coming with us.

You coming to my friend's house.

Trespass. Drag me out in the middle of
the night. You don't want to lecture me.

You faked your own disappearance.

To protect the interests of my people,
you bet by any means necessary.

Where'd you get the briefing book?

You're going to be charged with theft of
a classified U .S. document. That makes

you a national security threat. Puts you
on every list. You'll never be able to

go anywhere.

It was a woman.

She approached me a couple days ago,
told me about the deal. Describe her.

She had an accent.

British.

Yeah.

Oh, man.

Let's go. Shove over.

What? Shove over.

Are you sure about this? Don't say
anything, all right? Not a word.

Guess what I got?

The British rescue vehicle was a dud.

They did a field test, an underwater
rescue simulation.

The holding went pear -shaped. Five
sailors and three rescue workers died.

Okay. The British covered it up and
mothballed the design.

Now, here's where it gets weird. The
Russians came out with a rescue vehicle

year later.

Same specs.

The Russians stole the design from the
Brits. That's the theory.

The whole thing got slapped top secret.

The Russians never tested their vehicle?
Nope.

And the flaw is structural, a
pressurization problem, not something

retrofit. So you're saying if the
Russians attempt the rescue...

They have four hours.

What else?

Charlotte Bates likes to vacation in
North Yotland. She's been going there

years. Nice, wide, sandy beaches, or so
I hear.

She stays with an old friend, Lars
Swain, Denmark's defense minister.

Kara's father.

So that's what she was telling me.

Charlotte and Swain both support the EU
position. No sovereignty for Canada,

international treaty zone for the
Arctic.

There's only two possibilities.

Either what Darnell found is real and
the Russian rescue won't work.

Or... Or Charlotte Pace is more
concerned with discrediting the Russians

saving our people.

What do you think?

I think those kids are going to die.

Charlotte, wake up.

What is it?

I don't care about your manipulations or
your lies or what your endgame is. Is

that Russian vehicle really faulty?

Don't trust the Russians. You said that
before. Is it really faulty, yes or no?

Yes. You sent Kara Swain to talk to me?

Yes. Why didn't you tell me yourself?

Because I couldn't. The foul field and I
took an oath.

Kara was a safe conduit.

Possible deniability?

My countrymen are dying up there, and
you're concerned with covering your ass?

It's not like if I'd come to you, you
would have believed me. Now, why is

Besides the fact you gave U .S. briefing
notes to Shani Ariak.

Okay, those two things have got nothing
to do with each other. Don't think

they're linked. That's a mistake.

A botched rescue would be good for Great
Britain, wouldn't it? No.

It would prove your point. Canada is
weak. We can't control the Northwest

Passage. What Kara pointed you to is
absolutely real. It's got nothing to do

with Shani Ariak. I swear it.

How do I believe you?

Do you honestly believe that 35 lives
means nothing to me?

Where did you get that briefing book?

The transition team for the incoming
American administration.

There. I've just breached the Official
Secrets Act.

Now please, get the bloody Russians away
from your boat.

Wow, you're out early.

Yeah, I'm on duty soon.

You know, I did web training with a
couple secret service guys down in

Uh -huh.

Anyway, I called my friend, Dale Smith.

Agent Smith?

Yeah, I know. He gets it all the time.

Anyway, you said you were in
counterfeiting, not protection duty.

You're not with the president's advance
team, are you?

I should go.

You came to get the briefing booklet,
but you don't work for the president.

I don't work for that president.

With deep water flow.

Can I?

Well, sites.

Two in Alberta. It's 1 ,900 new jobs,
Minister.

Tell me the writing weather. Minister, I
need to speak with you immediately.

We're in the meeting here.

Call off the Russians.

Don't let them near our sub. Their
rescue vehicle has a fatal flaw.

Who told you that?

Intel from the Danes and the Brits. The
Brits?

Look, Minister, there are two countries
that have a shot at controlling the

Northwest Passage. Playing the U .S. and
Russia off against each other is the

one hope Canada has to retain any sort
of control of them. I'm afraid he's

right, Major.

The sub going down doesn't change
anything. It just proves how weak we

Brits and the Danes just want to have
access without responsibility for

security. There's only one person here
who stands to profit.

You can make a profit and still be a
patriot, Major. Only the Russians can

that crew. The Americans will get over
it. You're wrong on both counts.

Please, follow me.

Not you.

Government business.

All the governments you thought you were
juggling at this conference?

Turns out there was one more. Isn't that
right, Mr. Sullivan?

Yes.

Okay, I don't understand.

You thought you could make a quick deal
with the outgoing U .S. government,

recognizing our sovereignty over the
Northwest Passage. Just one problem.

President -elect wants no part of it.

He doesn't think wholesale drilling in
the Arctic is the best thing for the

planet right now. The environment was
one of the issues he ran on. Protocol

means he doesn't have a say yet.

He's not president.

But wait a few weeks.

The new administration doesn't want you
to make a deal with the Russians or

Perry Butler.

Show them a map.

Oh, um, hey.

Headwind has slowed the Russian advance
by a couple of hours.

Meanwhile, the Minnesota has made great
time. And the Thub caught a current and

it's been drifting south.

Math's not bad.

It's close, but I think the Americans
can do it.

The U .S. Navy support ship, the USS
Minnesota, reached the site

one hour ago after unspecified
mechanical problems forced the Russians

withdraw. The Persephone is in the
water. It's been two hours since any

was heard from the boat.

The eight men were unconscious.

And four of them breathe only twice a
minute.

We've got to account for the young.

Merciful rescue in the northwest passage
of the HMCS Hanover.

Pressure is 5 by 5.

Seal established.

Roger that.

Hatches open.

CO2 levels reading high, but non
-lethal.

Stand by.

Minnesota standing by.

The advised O2 restock is aboard.

We have packages alive and well.

Beginning extraction.

Conference

breaks

without deal.

I ought to be a fly on the White House
wall right now. And the Norwegian

delegates have just arrived.

I confess, Major, I'm not entirely sure
what happened this morning.

Mr. Campbell is so fixated on getting
the U .S. sign -off on our right to the

Northwest Passage, he backed wrong.
Duck?

Should make for an interesting four
years.

They'll all be back at the table in 18
months.

Though, perhaps, without Mr.

Donald Campbell leading the charge.

I'm sure he'll make a fine heritage
minister.

You know, they pulled 33 crew out of
that sub.

Do you know the only reason they
survived?

Two of them died from their injuries,
more air for the rest.

Gave them the time they needed.

And that?

It's the kind of world we live in.

Oh, um, there was a woman at the
reception. You spoke to her briefly.

Brunette, British, 5 '8". You wouldn't
know how to get in touch with her, would

you?

You're leaving.

Your powers of observation are uncanny.

I'm sorry.

It's just hard to keep straight
sometimes.

Not for me.

I think that's part of the problem.

I can't take back how we met and you
can't get past it. It was never going to

work.

Flight 194 to Paris will now depart from
gate 33.

It's me.

Good job saving those people.

I didn't save any money.

So modest.

Goodbye,

Michael.

Charlotte.
