Original subtitles

- More preoccupied than normal? - Why do you ask?

She's lined up for a big promotion.

Someone is trying to frame her, probably the CIA,

So we stop trusting her and she doesn't take your job.

Sign, and once we have what we want, we'll give you money and a new identity.

If you don't, we'll ship you back to Shammar and ruin your family's life.

- What will I need to do? - Your handler will explain everything.

- Hello, Yasser. - I have definite proof.

When we planted the mics, we also replaced her secure laptop

with an identical one connected to our network.

She used the laptop to open a USB stick and read this document.

- A contract between her and the CIA. - When will you take her?

In 48 hours. Enough time to setup her interrogation.

I've finished preparing. Extraction at 7.30 p.m. tomorrow.

- I just need to sort out a few details. - Rachel, wait!

O'Leary had a long list of enemies.

I don't know what's happening, my friend, but I think I'll need you more than ever.

- Some media coverage in general news.

Montreal police are treating it as suspicious.

Have they identified O'Leary's diplomatic status?

Not yet.

- Reactions from the Americans? - The Embassy is sending a CIA agent.

They will seek vengeance. An eye for an eye, all that.

Monitor the Canadian airports. I want to know if they send a kill team.

Arrange a conference call with Ottawa,

head of operations, border control and the RCMP.

I want to see Marianne.

We sent her back to your place.

Now, you hate me, you feel sick about cooperating with us.

You're a survivor, Yasser.

You can come out on top.

Think about the consequences.

If you're deported to Shammar, you know what'll happen.

Someone in your community is preparing an attack.

Help us find them and we'll leave you alone.

It's not one of us.

What brings us together is our desire to avoid violence

because we've all been subjected to it.

Let me help you.

But you can't tell anyone, not even your wife, Marianne, who I am.

You expose me and the deal is off, you're on the next plane to the Emirates.

I swear we'll protect your family, and you too, I promise you.

I don't believe you.

I'm your pawn.

- You're the manipulators. - I'm not asking you to believe me.

I'm asking you to give yourself a chance.

If you don't cooperate with me, you'll be with someone more ruthless.

Why must we go?

Stop eating lollies and you won't have cavities.

- I hardly eat any. - You'll end up with braces.

Stop terrorising your sister. The dentist did us a favour, be nice.

- It's just a clean, it'll be fine. - Their teeth cleaner tastes like grass.

CLASSIFIED

Shit!

- Thank you. - You're gorgeous!

- You're blind. - You just dazzle me.

Blind and silly.

Let me work. Let me work!

Can you slow down a bit?

M. Miller.

I assume this isn't random?

According to your contract, once retired, you shouldn't...

Contracts just keep lawyers busy.

What's happening with my niece?

What you're talking about.

I wrote your performance evaluations for nine years.

The job you have right now is thanks to me.

So, Rachel?

Nothing.

Complained to you?

- Or Emile? - He's too macho to complain.

Rachel is too proud to whinge about anything.

She is too straight to tell me secrets.

I thought that maybe my friend Jacques knows something.

Especially if it involves our American neighbours.

I don't know who you are talking about.

- Do you swear? - On my mother's life.

Sorry to have wasted your time.

Ah! Greetings to your mother.

- She died last year. - I know.

Who would have wanted him dead?

Not them, not us.

Not Rachel.

O'Leary's business might have blown up In his face.

Maybe.

I have to tell you something.

Irene saw Martin meeting with Inspector Garand,

that federal police guy, off the record.

- They chatted for a while. - You tell me this now?

You're not very approachable these days.

Irene should be the one telling me.

Here.

I know It's a big case and I won't say no to overtime,

but it'd be nice to have a weekend every now and then.

You'll have time off when Irene gets time off.

- Come, I want to show you something.

Okay, but I don't have long. Irene is releasing Grenade in one hour.

You were looking for me?

- Where were you? - I took some personal hours.

As the conference approaches, the political pressure intensifies.

- Ms Bartoli didn't read our assessments? - She'd rather ignore them.

I can try to be more convincing.

Political staff don't want to be convinced, they want buses to be on time.

And the CIA will want repercussions for O'Leary.

Let's see what happens

with the Americans and the Shammar dissidents.

Before one decides to do something publicly.

I hate when blood is shed and we're not the ones holding the blade.

- A Janitor's storeroom? - Yeah.

Why are we here?

It's one of the rare places here with no cameras.

- You're not claustrophobic? - No.

What are you doing? Stop!

Do you know what I need to make someone disappear?

A big plastic drum, a saw, 50 bottles of common stuff

bought in 25 different stores, and three days.

Then you're just left with teeth.

You thought I wouldn't notice you working for your former crew?

Okay, chill, it's fine.

Yeah? You'd better have some convincing arguments.

I had no choice! The conditions for my transfer.

If it didn't work here, they'd take me back with a promotion.

- What do they want to know? - Everything around Grenade.

What exactly?

- The details about Irene's cover. - Listen carefully.

From now on, you tell them only what I tell you to say, okay?

And after Grenade, you resign.

One thing my wife taught me is we all have two wolves inside us.

The most dangerous one is the one we don't feed.

I've been hungry for a damn long time to hurt someone like you.

From now on, you no longer work for them.

From now on, you work for me.

Emile, I'm...

Little bastard!

Thank you, have a nice day!

Come. Come.

What did they do to you?

Not here. I'll explain later, okay?

Canadian secret service.

I have to act as their informant.

- No. - Or they'll deport me.

What are you going to do?

What any father would do...

to see his daughter grow up.

Habibi!

We have zero control over our lives.

The kids, they have nothing to do with this.

- Just who I wanted to see. - I have nothing to say.

You don't need to talk, just listen.

Get your affairs in order. I transferred your case to HR.

The classified documents you left at the bar nine months ago.

You tried to hide it from us, and then lied when I questioned you.

And my recommendation to fire you with exemplary damages, the lot.

Sometimes, we have to make examples.

Bye-bye pension, dear Robert.

And your beautiful Sarah won't get her promotion.

She might even be demoted.

It's a shame. Especially since she Is pregnant.

I forgot to congratulate you, a father at your age?

At least now you'll be able to stay home and change nappies.

I told you to stay on my side of the fence.

Loyalty in friendship comes at a cost.

Here's the bill.

Darcy, home for 90 minutes.

Hello! What's for dinner tonight?

Oh, you little rascal

Okay, okay. I'm dead, I'm dead! Come here you!

- Let me go, you're all wet! - Yeah, I wonder why.

You too”?

I thought it was you and me until death do us apart.

You're right, but tonight it's my girls and I against men.

- What do we say, girls? - Girl power

Okay. It's not fair!

- You can have your revenge later. - You'll get what you deserve.

I need to see the physio after dinner.

Philip is coming to see the girls and have a cuppa.

- Do I have time to change? - Yes, quickly.

Is he going to tell us stories?

Yes.

That should convince your department's doctor.

- I hope so. - Otherwise, how are you?

Bad, thanks.

Do you have what I asked for?

In moderation, Emile.

For emergencies.

- I'm worried about you. - It'll be fine.

No matter what you think about me, I am your friend.

'She kept the garden like a mongoose

“so Cobra never dared to show his head within the walls.”

There you go! The end.

How big is a mongoose? Does it have lots of teeth?

Did you ever see any in India? And cobras as well?

Well, it's as big as a cat.

And to your other questions: yes, no, yes.

Okay girls, time for bed.

Five minutes. We never have grown-up conversations.

Good night, my princess!

- You promise? - I swear.

Good night!

- What did you promise her? - That we'll go for a drive.

And I might let her drive for a bit.

She's 11!

- Black? - Like my soul.

Emile's not here?

No, physio session.

Good timing, it's you I wanted to talk to.

Before you ask, I can't tell you anything.

You and your principles. You know I still have contacts inside?

People talk to me, Rachel. These days, they talk about you.

- Uncle, it's not a game. - Of course it's not!

You're under surveillance.

The Vancouver office passed on a lot of staff to Thomassin.

They want to corner you.

The Canadians flipped Chadli? Interesting.

That could be handy for us.

Leave the Chadlis to me.

Move on the next two targets.

Let's say a suicide by hanging and a car accident.

In case we need an insurance policy...

the girl that the Canadians used to infiltrate the Chadlis entourage...

Get more information about her.

Her weaknesses.

You're back? You're staying?

Sleep, my love.

Irene, are you okay?

I just needed a bit of love.

Go back to sleep, I'll stay the night.

Darcy, home for the night.

- Philip's gone? - Yeah, he said hi.

How was the physio?

Sometimes I wonder why I go there.

- You want a new specialist? - It wouldn't change anything.

It's just that...

What is it?

I'm tired.

I transferred money to our joint account.

Why?

I know I normally manage this, but I don't feel myself these days.

If I miss a bill, can you pay it for me?

I spoke to housekeeping. They'll send someone in a few days.

So, if you or I are late, they can collect the girls or make dinner...

Or if Azure's drinking vodka, she'll be here.

- Who? - Valérie Kasher.

We have history, her and me. I trust her.

If I'm not here, she'll have code words.

I'll be more at ease If someone's here that can adapt to unforeseen situations.

- Will it be that rocky? - No, I just want to concentrate.

And I want the same for you.

Okay.

Where are you going?

Paperwork. I have to redo the night rosters.

I don't think so.

Well, fuck the rosters.

What did I do to deserve this?

You're here.

You're always here, and that's priceless.

- I can look after the girls if you want. - It's my turn.

I'll drop them at school before my first meeting.

Okay. In fact, that suits me fine. I'll go see a source.

And I have the night rosters to redo.

- More. - Infinitely.

Azure?

Marine?

Don't tell her anything. I'll talk to Émile.

- If that doesn't work, I'll go to McKenna. - I'm sure if I tell Rachel...

She can't do anything. I can't tell you how. I don't know why.

It's my mess, I will fix it.

- You can't tell me anything? - Not now.

Maybe in a few days.

It should be a short day today, yeah?

Let's talk about it tonight.

Robert, I probably manage more secrets than you.

Why can't you trust me?

See you later.

- You love me? - Right now, no, not at all.

You scare me. You're in trouble with the police?

- I knew it would happen one day.

I respect your faith, your ideals, your convictions.

Can you do the same for me? For your mother?

What do they want?

Mics everywhere

What every secret service wants.

Names, information, denunciations.

Keep living, don't get into politics, respect the law and it will be fine.

- But for you? For mum? - The less you know, the better.

And the less interesting you'll be to them.

But whatever happens...

You must be there for one another.

Always.

Yes, Baba.

Sorry, I'm late.

- What do you want? - To make peace, Bruno.

While we sort out the whole shooting situation.

Let us lead our own investigations.

Make arrests, press charges, then we'll see.

I'm sure you know we found informants in that case?

Yes, and?

These informants have a handler. They're in the firing line.

We should coordinate our actions before we all start dying

because you decided to raid the place without telling us.

Give me the names of your people and informants.

I'll see what I can do.

If you give me yours.

Well, I tried. Good day to you. 'll find someone to drive you back.

- Don't worry, I know the way. - I wouldn't want you to get lost.

Thanks for the coffee.

We know what Rachel is doing. Her office is bugged.

Is everything ready??

We'll pick her up when she collects her girls.

Perfect.

Thomassin will arrest you when you collect the girls from school.

Office is bugged.

Shredder, burn bag.

Emile was supposed to take care of the bullies, but he hasn't had time.

- You want me to? - That's not why I'm telling you.

You asked how Azure is doing at school.

- And Marine? - No improvement.

- She now has three different inhalers. - You project your stress on her.

- I saw Adrien. You got threats? - What threats?

The girls need close monitoring.

Dad, can you pretend that I'm at the table?

- Is it true? - Can we talk about my girls?

No, no threats.

But with Marine, two years on the same dosage?

Maybe it's time to go see a specialist?

Anne, you're a translator, not a pneumologist.

Can you listen to me for once?

- There are a lot of them. - How many?

At least two, plus those outside.

What we talked about the other day, we'll do it now, but with my cousin.

I'll double park the car.

- Thank you for everything, Marcel. - My pleasure, it's a privilege.

I have favours to ask you and no time to tell you why.

Can you pick up the girls from school and take them home?

- Of course. - Come with me to the toilet.

That's what I thought. The CIA is involved.

- I'm In a hurry. - Find the time to explain, soon.

I promise, soon.

This what you're looking for?

Thomassin wants to arrest me. I have to flee.

- What do you need? - You're not asking me why?

I trust you. You know what you're doing. How do you want to do this?

Let's do this without fuss.

I don't want two hysterical girls attracting attention, understood?

Where are the cops for the official arrest?

Further behind us.

There are the Miller girls.

Anyone see Tango?

Who's he?

The old bastard!

- We've been screwed, Rachel knows. - But the bug...

- SI-1 to central. - Central receiving.

Send out a search party. Subject: Rachel Miller.

Forbidden to leave the country. Same thing for Emile Darcy.

And I want GPS location of every car in Darcy's team.

- Every car? - Do!

- Thanks Bob. - My pleasure. A friend is a friend.

You'll owe me a beer. Let's hurry, it's still 120 km away.

All my equipment with GPS has been disabled for the last hour.

- We have to go. - Yes.

Give me a minute, okay?

The second time you've saved my life.

I want to explain, have time to talk.

- But it's not simple. - It never is.

I love you.

That should be stronger than anything.

I don't have a choice. I never did.

I love you too.

I hid letters for you and the girls behind the back wall under the stairs.

They won't understand.

Look after them, okay?

Look after yourself.

You are my life.

I'll come back to you, I promise.

More.

Infinitely.

Girls, do you know how much I love you?

- It's In everyone's best interest, Adrien.

I don't pretend to understand the ins and outs of security.

I am just a consular executive.

My job is only to put forward the Emir's interests.

Those dissidents that your country naively welcomed

are trouble-makers working for your enemies, future terrorists.

We are not asking you to turn a blind eye.

We just suggest that you look the other way

while we pull back these loose canons back in line.

And the PM's office backs this selective vision?

Our best interests coincide with those of the Shammar people.

I will study the issue.

- No, it's already decided. You must... - The world doesn't change in plain sight.

- It changes behind our backs. - I don't understand.

It doesn't matter. Mr Bin Sadria understands.

You know the proverbs in my country?

That's why I have eyes in my back.

I will study your proposition.

Very seriously.

The border is just 3 km that way, follow the path.

I'll stay a bit longer In case you have to come back.

30 minutes, no more.

Thank you, Robert.

- I can"t believe that... - I have my reasons.

You'll look after Emile and Sarah?

Always.

Yes?

Before I forget...

- The drone located his car less than 1 km from here.

Go faster, will you?

Out of the car, Robert!

Open the door slowly using both your hands.

Come on, Robert, I want to see your hands.

- SI-1 to central. - Receiving.

I want these people held in custody in our offices.

- Priority 1, code Yankee. - Priority 1, code Yankee.

Emile Darcy, Philip Miller, Sarah Adamson.

Al Yo SURER

My brother hasn't spoken to me for years.

If he tells me that the political police arrested my dad, I believe him.

My father didn't do anything.

He disowned me, rejected me.

He's just an old man.

One of your people told their authorities that I'm collaborating with you.

They will kill us all.

- What will I tell Marianne? - I won't let anything happen to you.

I never lost an informant and I won't start with you.

We finally found you.

- Where were you? - Doing my job. What's on fire?

Your wife fled to the United States.

But you know that already, you're her accomplice.

- Careful what you say. - We have her bodyguard.

We have her assistant, Sarah, Philip Miller, his daughter, Anne.

Someone will tell us what we're already thinking.

I'd put my money on Anne, a civilian.

She's already petrified.

But we thought of you.

And we have a surprise.

It's a code Yankee. I hold almost all the power.

And my guy Is pretty ruthless,

he won't have an issue pushing them around so you cooperate.

- I ask you politely to let my girls go. - You don't ask anything, that's my job.

Where were you? No one saw you today.

I won't repeat myself.

You don't look surprised about what I'm saying about your wife.

But I have another one for you.

She killed a guy from your team.

Your best mate, Robert Galois.

That's what she did, your backstabbing wife!

Emile!

That's enough.

I thought I asked you to go easy on them.

Where's my wife? Where's Rachel?

Exactly, where Is she?

No.
