Previously on butterfly...

All clear. Target's in position.

Shit.

She's my daughter.

What if she can't be saved?

We haven't been able to
make contact with her just yet.

'Cause she's the most valuable
asset in this organization.

Did you find him?

Not yet, but I know where he is.

I'll have it done by morning.

No!

Did you know it was him?

He's alive?

Rebecca.

Dad?

This is so weird.

So we're talking now. That's progress.

You know, up until about an hour ago,

I would've given anything to
know that my dad was still alive,

and now here we are
just... Shopping for snacks.

I'm thinking maybe I should bail.

You want to leave?

Do you want to tell
me where we're going?

Busan.

Why?

We need to pick up a few things.

- And then what?
- Then we leave the country.

Back to Virginia?

Right, you can't clear customs
when you're officially dead.

So, where to?

Vietnam.

What?

I rented a house there.

It's a beautiful country,
and they don't extradite.

Okay, so we'll just live
happily ever after in Vietnam?

You know I liked my life?

I had money, freedom,
juno always took care of me,

and I just blew it all up

for the man who faked his own
death to get out of raising me.

That's not what happened.

I should call juno.

I mean, why am I the one that's running?

You're the one that she wants dead.

You killed her agent.

Atwood?

- There's plenty of at woods.
- No, you turned on her.

You know juno. She'll never let that go.

Maybe.

But... Are we even sure that I did it?

You used to love those.

Yeah, they taste like I remember.

You should pay for those.

- Hey. Hey.
- Relax.

I just have to pee.

Okay, okay.

Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay.

Hello?

You tried to have him killed?

Rebecca.

Juno?

Do not lie to me right now. I
saw the text that you sent at wood.

Get a trace on that number.

Where are you? Are you with him?

He's dangerous.

I don't know what he's planning.

He killed at wood.

Just tell me where you
are, and I'll send a team.

You'd take me back?

Of course.

There's always a place for you here.

That's really nice to hear.

Even if it's not true.

It is true, Rebecca.

This is where you belong.

What about my dad?

Fuck.

What's wrong?

- I thought you had...
- Disappeared?

Feels bad, doesn't it?

Did you call her?

I can't hold you here against your will,

and if you want to take
your chances with juno,

there's nothing I can do to stop you,

but I need to know.

I didn't call her, okay?

I promise.

- You got old.
- You got old.

What's that?

- I don't know.
- Maybe it's an accident?

Maybe.

- Shit.
- What?

It's a police checkpoint.

What are you doing?

What does it look like I'm doing?

You're not shooting anyone.

Says who?

Look, we just need to stay calm, okay?

If this is a routine checkpoint,

we can just slip through
without anyone getting hurt.

And if it isn't?

Hello.

Can I see your license?

Yes.

Here it is.

Where are you coming from?

Seoul.

What's this all about?

Hey, officer.

Got something.

Show me.

From our checkpoint in gumi.

Local police are reporting a match.

Can you step out of the car, please?

We're just on vacation.

Step out of the car, now.

Is this really necessary?

Get out of the car.

Can't you just send me on
my way? I'm with my daughter.

I'm not going to ask again.

Get out. Now!

Police have them at gunpoint.

They're done.

You don't know David jung.

One...

Two... Okay. Okay.

Keep your hands where I can see them!

Yes, yes.

I'm getting out.

Miss, come out.

I'm warning you one last time.

Get out of the car, now!

Make me.

Rebecca.

Don't.

Drop the gun!

Take point.

Get in!

I can't believe he's alive.

All these years and he just... reappears.

Do you remember him?

I remember his funeral.

He was nice to me when I was a kid.

You were close, weren't you?

When you start a company
together, you don't have a choice.

Yep.

Did you find them?

Not yet, but I just got off the phone

with commissioner general
hwang from Korean national police.

He assures me that all
checkpoints are still active,

and he's increasing police presence

within a 100-kilometer radius of
where the target was last seen.

Thank you.

Okay, I have an address for David.

It's a house an hour away
from the soju distillery.

Both owned by a
woman named eunju Kim.

She's 43, the daughter of
a prominent businessman

who owns a shipping company in Seoul.

And seven years ago, she
married a man named dae ho jung.

That's David.

He got married again.

What are we gonna do about him?

He knows we killed Karpov.
We have to take him off the board.

Okay.

I'll... I'll get on it.

Hey, mom?

Do you think he knows about jae-hun?

We have a lot more to worry
about than one dead Korean.

Okay.

It's someone from the
home security company.

Hello.

I'm here to fix cctv.

Come in, come in.

Thank you.

Hey, I'll call you back in a bit.

Would you like some persimmon?

Pardon?

I got a box delivered
from the countryside.

I'm okay, thank you.

They're chungdo persimmons.

Well... if you insist.

Have a seat.

Thank you.

What a cute dog.

You can have her if you want.

She's a troublemaker.

I've never taken care of a dog before.

You would have been a great mother.

What was that?

Why didn't you have kids?

That's... a really
personal question, isn't it?

Wouldn't it be better to
raise a child than a dog?

We tried... For a long time.

Maybe it was for the best.

Because of your husband...

You were all going to die today anyway.

What are you doing?

Your husband, Mr. Chulsu lim...

He took money from
some dangerous people.

Please, get out of my house!

Shh, shh.

Yes?

Hello, is this arirang solutions?

Are you a returning customer?

We haven't worked
together before, but...

You have an excellent
reputation, Mr. Lee.

Please, call me gun.

And you are...?

My name is juno lund.

I'm the co-founder of the caddis group.

I know who you are.

I have a job for you, if you're interested.

Who's the target?

David jung, my old partner.

I thought he was dead.

So did I.

It won't be easy.

I like a challenge.

This isn't Busan.

No. It's daegu.

I thought it was Busan, and then off
to beautiful, non-extradition Vietnam.

Change of plans.

God...

Where are we going?

I know a place where we can lie
low and figure out our next move.

This is it.

This looks closed.

Owner's a client of mine. Nice guy.

Too naive for this world.

You remember coming
to Korea together?

You were, what, nine?

Yeah. Yeah, it was right after mom died.

I always wanted to bring you back here.

So much more I wanted to show you.

Well, you've been a great tour guide.

Nice.

Do you drink?

You're kidding, right?

My little girl, all grown up.

You know, proper thing
to do here is to toast.

- Cheers.
- Cheers.

You actually make this stuff?

Makgeolli and soju.

I brew it, I find distributors,
I manage the accounts.

This is my full-time job.

You really moved to
Korea to become a hipster?

A hipster.

Yeah. Artisanal fucking makgeolli.

What, that's unfiltered soju, right?

It is the oldest alcohol in Korea.

They were brewing this
stuff centuries before soju.

See? Hipster.

Do you remember that song you
used to sing to me when I was little?

I think it was about a
baby being left home alone?

It went...

How strong is this stuff, anyway?

Something's wrong.

Hey. I... I got you. I got you.

That's some...

- Just lie down.
- I... Come on.

Yeah, come in.

It's senator Dawson for you.

Tell him I'm out of the country
and I'll call him the moment I'm back.

I'm sorry, I meant, he's here.

Downstairs.

George Dawson.

Juno lund.

What a nice surprise.

Heard you were opening
an office in Seoul, but damn.

This seems like quite the operation.

Well, just another perk
of the private sector.

- When'd you get back?
- Last night.

Not a bad spot if you want to get
a foothold in this part of the world.

Away from your nosy
neighbors in Langley?

You want to come up for a tour?

We could talk in one of
the conference rooms.

Nuh. I haven't seen you in ages.

I'm taking you out.

Come on.

You ever had this before?

Budae-jjigae. army base stew.

Came out of the postwar
period when Korea was destitute,

had to boil up surplus American goods.

Baked beans, hot dogs.

- Yum.
- Sometimes called "Johnson stew,"

after old lbj.

When you're president, maybe
they'll name a soup after you.

Dawson chowder.

Yeah. I like the sound of that.

It's not such a stretch, is it,

now that you're heading the
senate intelligence committee?

Politics.

Maybe you had the right idea,
going private after Langley.

I had to go and try and change the world.

I still want to change the world,

I just need more money
and power to do it.

It's good to see you, juno.

Kind of fortuitous, you being here.

- How so?
- Well...

I came to Seoul to talk
to the late mikhail Karpov.

He did some work with caddis, didn't he?

It was a few years ago, but we
contracted with him a couple times.

Everybody in the business
worked with Karpov.

They say he knew everyone's secrets.

Can't say I'm surprised he was killed.

Why, what have you heard?

- George.
- Sorry.

Just sounded like you had more to say.

Aren't you gonna ask what
we were meeting about?

I assume it's confidential.

Well, between you and me,

he was funneling vital U.S.
intelligence to Russia's fsb.

I want to know who was behind it.

If I hear anything worth
sharing, I'll let you know.

I'd appreciate the help.

It'd be just like old times.

Of course.

Speaking of which, how is Oliver?

Your son's joined the family business.

You must be proud.

Tell him hi for me.

You fucking drugged me?

I wasn't trying to hurt you.

I just had to know.

Yeah, okay, I called her.

You caught me.

Do you expect me to feel bad about that?

I can't bring you with me if
you're gonna deliver me to caddis.

What did you tell her?

- Nothing.
- Nothing?

I just wanted to talk to her.

You found me.

You burned me with caddis,

and you brought me on this fucked-up
little daddy-daughter adventure.

- You didn't have to do any of that.
- Of course I did.

My... why?

Because I love you.

No, you left me.

You let me grow up thinking
that you'd been killed by terrorists.

It was the only way I
could keep you safe.

Is-is that what you've been
telling yourself this whole time?

Hey.

Come on.

Let go! Let go.

I was leading a team on
jolo island in the Philippines.

We were hired to hunt down Hugo
maldonado and his terrorist cell.

We knew they were dangerous,

but we underestimated them.

Go.

They had a network that
reached across continents,

and they knew we were coming.

You should see this.

These men were known to be ruthless.

They burned down homes,
they killed entire families.

Anything to get to their target.

And they had your photo.

Your birth certificate.

Your school schedule.

We were their target.

And before I could get home
to you, we were ambushed.

My entire team was killed.

I survived, but I knew they
wouldn't stop until I was dead, too.

And I knew they would hunt
you down and kill you to get to me.

That's why I had to die.

So...

You disappeared to save me
from evil men in another country.

I thought I was doing the right thing.

The hard thing.

I thought that's what a father does.

Look, I know it doesn't
compare to what I put you through

but it destroyed me.

I've missed you every day.

And every day, I ask myself
if I made the wrong decision.

But seeing you here in front of me, alive.

I know it was all worth it.

I've read everything that there is
to know about the day that you died.

Maldonado only got stronger.

Is that why you didn't come back for me?

Hey.

Is something wrong?

I think I'm being followed.

What?

I told myself I was acting paranoid,

but there were two
men with radios and...

I think they're caddis.

Where are you?

Dongdaegu station.

Can you get out of there?

I... no. No, they'll find me.

Okay.

Listen to me.

I need you to get someplace safe.

Someplace where
you can lock yourself in.

I'm not far.

I'll be there in 15 minutes, okay?

Okay. Come quick.

That was a woman, wasn't it?

It was my wife.

Caddis found her.

Yeah.

Sounds like you could use my help.

- Not that I'm offering.
- No.

I didn't bring you here just to
put you in danger all over again.

So you want me to just sit
here while you go out for her?

I can't make you wait for me. I know that.

But I'm not saying goodbye.

Please.

Stay here.

What if you die again?

I'm not that easy to kill.

Idiot.

- Yeah? - It's me.

We have something.

I don't understand.

She knows we're here.
Why don't we just move in?

David's our target, not his wife.

- You actually think he'll show?
- I do.

David always has to be the hero.

Look, I know he knows about Karpov, but

is he really a threat anymore?

I mean, seems like he's just

- trying to get away from caddis.
- Right, and you think we should let him?

I'm just asking.

The part of you that feels that way,

part of you that sees him as a
human being instead of a target

you have to wrap your
hands around its throat

and not let go until it's dead.

You understand?

At the east entrance, nothing here.

This is lim.

Checking in.

Hey, focus on this area.

Ryu, do you copy?

Ryu?

What the fuck is going on?

It's David.

He's here.

We have a problem.

Lim, come in.

Juno, I know you're listening.

It's been a long time.

Do something.

You remember when caddis
was just the two of us in a room?

Show me what you have.

I promised you it wasn't
just a pipe dream, didn't I?

I said we'd be a major player
with people all over the world.

I said that this would be our legacy.

Are these all the cameras
we have access to?

Why haven't we found him?!

I was right, wasn't I?

Sayavong has eyes.

So take him out.

And now, here you
are, hunting me in Korea.

Give me that.

So I'm gonna make you another promise.

You hurt my family,

and I will destroy
everything you care about.

You will have nothing left.

Hi, David.

Nice to hear your voice.

While you played dead, I built an empire.

-You can't touch me. -We'll see.

- Keep walking.
- I told you to stay at the bar.

I wanted to meet your wife.

There he is.

It's Rebecca.

She's helping him.

You think she's in there?

Yeah, and the train
leaves in four minutes.

How about you take care of those
two, and I'll go meet up with her.

No. Since you're here, stay with me.

We'll lure them away.

Get to the train as fast as
you can, and I'll meet you there.

Go. Now!

Shit.

Come on.

Okay, okay, okay.

Okay.

Okay, just sit. Just sit.

Okay.

- Hey.
- My god.

I have to tell you something.

- It can wait.
- No.

- It can't.
- Can you just shut the fuck up?

It's fine.

What happened?

Daddy.

Daddy, you're hurt.

Honey...

You have a daughter?
