Original subtitles

Do you know what 100kg of explosives would co?

You'll put me under pressure?

To make sure you are who you say you are.

I am Valerie from housekeeping. I'm here to give you a hand.

Six Shammar dissidents died in Canada last week, all suspicious deaths.

Hit and run, hanging. Someone is cleaning up.

I'm under pressure to let the Shammar security services

continue their efforts to gag the dissidents, they're the other team.

If I could transfer you to Montreal?

- You still have enough pull? - There's one condition.

I know you want to emigrate to Shammar. I can help you.

The RCMP just took Grenade.

You heard about your father? Soon he'll be on a plane 10 the Emirates.

Once there, only you can help him.

I don't recognise Shammar authorities.

You'll leave for the Emirates once we’ve finalised the details.

It's a very isolated chalet.

First look indicates four guards per shift, three shifts and a few specialists.

You have until tomorrow to prepare.

- What's happening? - My men are dying.

We were tricked?

- Do they have any options? - No, it's a kill zone.

- Do something! - What do you suggest?

It's a trap, they were waiting for us!

We went there to get Rachel, not to fight.

Do you have a network In our government?

They're contractors.

Housekeeping staff.

They don't have a direct link with us.

How can we distance ourselves from this fiasco?

There's no fiasco.

None of this happened. Even them, they're not there.

McKenna?

I'd say his name is already wiped from the building's register.

You know, Ms Bartoli, for you and I, it's our careers on the line,

but for those on the field, it's their life.

- Try not to forget that. Please. - Drop the lectures, will you?

Forget about bringing her back to Canada.

I don't want to know how, where, or who,

but I want her dead.

Rachel Miller has caused us enough problems.

Extreme prejudice?

I'll need the Prime Minister's authorisation.

You'll have It.

And what's good for McKenna is good for me.

Wipe my presence tonight from the registers.

CLASSIFIED

What do we do?

I don't know.

- We can't risk jeopardising Dad. - Let me think.

If they take Dad, what will you do?

I thought you hated him?

I don't approve of his way of life.

Nor his values.

But he's my dad, and I love him...

Just like you.

What do we do?

I don't know, Ina ya. It was your idea to come here.

May peace be with you, Excellence. Good evening.

- What? - You arrested our dad.

- We want to speak to him.

Chadli, Yasser. No, I don"t know the motive.

No, I don't know.

Yes, but does...

- I have to go through a lawyer. - Maybe Yasser's friends would know?

- I wouldn't know how to contact them. - Think, Marianne.

A man like Yasser would have taken precautions.

May peace be with you.

And may peace be with you.

I'm Khaled Bin Sadria

from the Shammar Consulate.

Can I come in? It's about your husband.

What do you want?

Your husband has expressed his wish to return to Shammar for legal issues.

- I don't believe you. - He signed documents to that effect.

You forged his signature.

Yasser would never want to go back, not while the Emir is in power.

Your husband spent years conspiring against the regime.

He worked with the Canadian security service,

which makes him a foreign service agent.

That won't help his case at his trial.

- Yasser, never. - He was keeping secrets from you.

If you love your husband, if you want to help him,

don't make waves.

And if you speak to him before his transfer,

remind him that the Emir's power Is far-reaching...

and could touch his family.

Are you threatening us?

I encourage you to practice reflection and silence.

Good evening.

- Did you hear? - Yes.

I don't trust him, Yasser would never do that.

What will I do?

You're strong, Marianne.

Yasser is too.

Don't let a government officer manipulate you like that.

Remember when we wanted a yacht to travel the world with the girls?

What happened to our dreams?

Say the word, we'll pack our bags and go wherever you want.

- What's wrong, Rachel? - Nothing.

New Message

Irene Shammar Consul just left Grenade's.

Direct threat + mention of the contract with Grenade.

How does he know that?

It leaked from our side, be careful.

Where are you?

What are you doing?

Did I have an episode?

Did something happen?

A Canadian security team attempted to...

retrieve you last night.

We were expecting it.

They were greeted with an unpleasant surprise.

- Here? - No, dear.

At one of our former sites.

- Who warned you? - No one, we just saw it coming.

We had to send a clear message to the Canadians

to not attempt to retrieve you.

How many dead?

I didn't ask for numbers.

How do you suggest we make this blunder work in our favour?

- Did you take prisoners? - No. They were all neutralised.

- Your advice, Rachel? - I would do nothing.

The threat is worse than the execution.

Do you think that the Canadians will want an eye for an eye?

It depends who's making the decision. If it's McKenna, yes.

He's old school, from the Cold War.

- But... - But what?

But Ottawa will hesitate.

As time passes, they'll be more reluctant to seek revenge.

I see.

Can we take a break before continuing?

I'm a bit groggy.

We're getting to the important questions,

the ones only you know the answers to.

- I said I took care of it. - I don"t know. Maybe Valérie...

Valerie is the babysitter. I'm your father.

Go finish getting ready and make sure Marine is too.

She's worse than normal these days.

What Is it?

- I need to know. For Robert. - Come in.

I need answers.

Rachel disappears just after I warn her she'll be arrested.

Then my husband dies In a car accident.

They won't let me see him.

I'm arrested for counter-espionage, then released without a word.

You notify me of Bob's death, not McKenna.

When I ask questions, everyone say the same thing!

My husband is dead. I want the truth, Emile.

You can't see the body because you don't want to see it, trust me.

Yes, he was at the wheel.

He didn't have time to be scared or feel pain.

Was it the shooting case?

All I can tell you is that he died doing what's right.

Being what he always was, a good man, a patriot.

- Most of all, a guy who adored you. - And Rachel?

That is also highly classified.

It's so unfair.

So fucking unfair.

We will need irrefutable proof of your loyalty towards us.

Secrets don't all have the same power.

Now's the time to prove your worth.

Canadians have identified your intercepting electronic equipment

that you operate from universities,

In major airline lounges in airports, around Parliament.

They're using it to disinform you.

Counter-espionage has identified your sources within Internal Affairs

at Atomic Energy Canada.

And...

McKenna knows that our Defence Minister

Is one of your longstanding agents.

No one knows that I know of this.

- And how do you know? - I learned to lip-read a long time ago.

And you don't mind revealing all these secrets, dear?

You feel no guilt?

If the CIA hadn't shared with the Canadians

that I was a prisoner in Caucasus, I'd be dead.

My government decided to abandon me.

I owe my life entirely to Emile.

And I owe you for the information that allowed him to find me.

My only loyalty is to the people I love, my priority is to repay my debt.

You said you'd get my husband and daughters in a reasonable time.

We'll honour our agreement, but...

Don't add a comma where there should be a full stop.

Not with me. We won't renegotiate our agreement.

And if I decide otherwise?

I can hurt Canada by telling you what I know.

But I could hurt you even more if I kept other secrets to myself.

Hello.

If you want to talk to me, talk to my lawyer.

Really? We've known each other for a long time, Anne.

- You're making me sad. - What do you want?

If your cousin contacts you, can you give her a message for me?

She won’t contact me.

Anne.

If it wasn't extremely serious, I wouldn't come to see you.

Tell her that I received a direct XPD order about her.

Will you remember X-P-D? For her.

We never met.

I never spoke to you.

They'll deport him against his will. We must do something!

- They'll hang him. - If it's Allah's wish.

Baba always said it's about money and power.

Did the guy from the consulate want to be bribed?

- No, he wanted to ensure our silence. - Well listen to my cry!

You will do nothing to jeopardise your father's life.

None of this would have happened if he thought before crushing our culture.

Never say a bad word about your father under his roof!

- Never! - It's not bad! It's just the truth!

I need us to stay united.

Faith in God is one thing, Bilal. But faith in the family is just as important.

Your father has faith in you.

He's counting on you, on all of us.

Yes, Mum.

Simple, we are at zero minus three steps.

Grenade is at the RCMP waiting to be deported, our access is refused.

Irene is with the family but they don't know much.

- Surveillance? Intercepts? - Nothing from the others.

We have no info about the explosives.

And someone Is friends with the Shammarians.

They know Grenade has a contract with us.

And Irene was identified by the Shammarians?

Looking for me?

You're good, but not good enough.

I was too, but it works both ways.

We know what one of their guys looks like.

Not too proud of you two on that one. Do we have a photo of him?

No, I didn't think about it.

The boss said to give you a bit more info.

There's a big conference in a few days and the Emir of Shammar will be here.

And?

He has no designated successor, so If something happened to him here

it could all turn to shit and Ottawa doesn't want that.

And you're only telling us now?

We can't do anything for Grenade now, 'll try to dig down from the top.

The priority remains the explosives and the rest of Grenade's network.

100 kg. Nasty bomb...

Think of a Frankentruck.

- A what? - A Frankenstein truck.

A massive bomb on wheels.

Who do we know In the stolen trucks network?

Emile Darcy is suspended.

You're not allowed to talk to him.

I take my orders from McKenna.

Your new boss is here from Vancouver. He's coming to see you shortly, go.

Didn't learn your lesson last time?

Don't try to leave the country.

Your passport has been cancelled.

Don't make waves. Keep backing Irene.

The priority will be current operations. VICTORIA

JOHN (VJ) LOGAN ACTING HEAD OF COUNTER-TERRORISM

Stay away from Emile Darcy.

If I'm to take on his operations on top of replacing Rachel Miller...

The Shammar network is destabilised. They're fine.

Find the explosives, close the shooting and prepare the conference security.

- I want to consult with Emile. - No.

I've known him for a long time.

If he'd suspected his wife, he'd have reported her.

He was fooled, just like us.

Just consider that heads will roll, and his will be one of the first.

Sir?

I don't quite share Ms Bartoli's and her bosses' views.

All of this Is too neat.

There's something else, but it’s too obvious for us to see.

Adrien. The surveillance committee has revised your priorities.

You will now just support the RCMP on Operation Grenade

until Yasser Chadli is kicked out.

Let them lead the case.

Emile's reports this morning indicate that

the Shammarians have infiltrated us.

- Try to find out who. - That's a waste of time.

Great start, Mum and Dad giving me contradictory instructions.

It's called tolerance to ambiguity.

I'll need visitation rights.

- For who? - Grenade.

What will happen to my father?

In 72 hours, he'll be in the Emirates.

- And my sister? My mother? - Your mother is faithless.

And I think it's too late to save your sister.

- What have we done? - You tried to change too many things.

Not you so much, but still...

And my grandfather? What will you do to him?

What we do to your father and grandfather depends on you, Bilal.

You want your name to be remembered?

Or do you want to keep hiding in the shadows, like a rat?

- Do I have a choice? - Only you know.

Are you ready to become a man?

- I am faithful to my Emir. - More than to your father?

What do I need to do?

Can I please have your attention for a minute?

Let me introduce VJ Logan.

VJ was just promoted to Head of Counter-Terrorism in our division

and will also perform Emile's responsibilities in the interim.

Thank you.

I will need three meetings.

Grenade's wife, Irene Beauvais and Mr Jamel Al-Nazef.

In that exact order.

- Is that enough? - Yeah, I think so!

There you go!

Bon appétit!

- Here you go, miss. - Thank you!

I need to speak with my bosses.

After everything you told us...

we will likely need to take action.

PROVISIONAL DETENTION CELL (RCMP) - MONTREAL

My love!

- They're listening. - I don't care.

How are you?

- Tired, anxious, worried about you three. - I'll get you out now I know you're here.

How did you find me?

It doesn't matter. You have a lawyer, it'll be okay.

Irene Ayed is a Canadian spy.

It's okay, I'm the last one.

We can't do anything.

You have to think about yourself and the kids.

Don't talk like that.

You know what they"ll do to me.

I'll be an example for others.

Yasser. We have to fight!

I'm tired, Marianne.

I've been trying to change things for over 20 years to give us rights.

All that for nothing.

No, you can't give up.

That battle, it's half of you!

It was.

It was half of me.

Now, the only thing that matters to me...

Is you.

Could we...

be together one more time,

In silence...

In peace?

What the fuck, who's he?

I am not a he. My name is VJ Logan.

I asked you, who's he?

The new boss.

- And Emile? - Suspended and under investigation.

Status of the explosive search?

- I want to speak to Emile. - Martin's presence should...

I don't want to insult anyone here, but Martin's lost some credibility.

That Is your business. Now shut up and listen to me.

I'm working really hard at delaying Grenade's deportation.

- We have a contract with them. - That we can't honour without results.

It Grenade doesn't know anything, look elsewhere.

Squeeze the rest of the family like lemons.

Explosives, plans, all of it.

They know nothing.

I'm not SO sure.

Marianne just went to see Grenade.

He whispered two things the mics couldn't pick up.

I want to know what. Make her talk.

You were right. There's a lot going on in Montreal.

Your husband was suspended.

He also contacted us via the means you mentioned.

Coded messages on the cheese making recipe website.

It's a rather original mailbox.

He wants a video call with you tomorrow.

On the condition that it is secure.

Washington can't know about it.

If someone leaks this to the SSC, or if McKenna finds out, they'll arrest Emile.

- My daughters need their father. - Okay.

And, as a precautionary measure,

we'll change location in a few days.

You don't want to know where?

You'd lie to me anyway.

Nice office, you really deserve it.

It's temporary, only if I don't take more than 10 weeks maternity leave.

- We'll manage. - Is that your answer to everything?

- The old owl comes with the office? - The what?

Your assistant. She spits sand when she speaks, she's that ancient!

- Seriously. - Bob's new girlfriend.

She works with the analysts, Sarah, she's smart.

- She's young, and if they split up... - They look pretty serious.

He wanted advice yesterday, asked how I managed to charm you.

It I remember correctly, it was the other way round.

Don't listen to her, she's silly, must be the hormones.

She loves you so much already, almost as much as me!

Here.

- What Is it? - Emergency procedures.

If we can't trust the service to have our backs.

Okay.

You owe me a gazillion bucks!

Girls, listen to me carefully.

Think about what you'll tell your mum when she calls.

- Tonight? - Tomorrow.

She probably won"t have much time, so we'll have to be quick.

I'll tell her what I've done at school.

- And our next holidays. - Holidays are in one year!

- We can plan ahead. - You too, Azure.

I'll believe it when I see lit. Why not call now? Or before?

Because speaking to you will be like a big reward.

She will have worked really hard to get it.

Okay?

May peace be with you.

Don't get put off by his silence. He prefers to speak with his hands.

Will it be ready in time?

Now that you know, you've seen,

it's too late to change your mind.

You'll leave my mother and sister alone?

I swear...

on my own mother's head.

- Now? - Yes.

We'll send your personal effects to your house.

There's nothing here I want to take with me.

Emile! Wait!

What's happening?

Come on. Twice in three weeks we're at a funeral home.

No one's telling us anything.

Now your wife is accused of something, you're treated like you've got leprosy.

Is this it? The great job?

This is why I left the RCMP?

Welcome to the national league.

In my days, the Prime Minister's national security advisor

wouldn't touch operations with a 10-foot pole.

Things have really changed.

Bartoli wants to be the bride in every wedding

and the widow In every funeral.

What will you do?

It Operation Grenade fails after they stood you down,

the surveillance committee will want answers.

From Bartoli.

Anne, hello!

Hello.

Tell him.

Tell him!

I saw Jacques Thomassin.

He said that he received an XPD order for Rachel.

What does XPD mean?

It means extreme prejudice order.

They are nice words to describe an action that's not so nice.

- They'll kill her? - It's tricky.

XPDs must be approved by the Prime Minister.

She won't do it in the US after the last blunder.

They'll try to have Rachel sent back here.

They'll need a motive.

- Emile? - No, no. One of her daughters.

A parent would do anything to save their child.

- You lost your tail? - Yeah.

It's getting harder, Thomassin keeps adding people.

I Know.

Is bigger than we thought.

Operation Grenade Is bigger than we thought.

- All my alarm bells are ringing at once.

- They'll deport him today. - Logan is taking care of it.

And you?

How are you?

Any news from Rachel?

Emile...

As you're both intelligence professionals,

surely there's a contingency plan?

So, I will ask my question again.

Are you In contact with Rachel?

What would it change?

My darling...

- Mum! - Hello, darlings!

When will you be back?

As soon as possible. Are you well? I miss you.

Can I get a dog?

A dog? We'll see?

- Azure? - We were arrested for nothing.

Dad had a fight, he's never here. He punishes me every day.

If you don't come back, I want a divorce.

- When are you coming back? - School is bad.

Girls, not at the same time. You can trust Valérie, she's my friend.

- Emile? - Yeah?

- Everything under control? - I'm In control.

I'm counting on you.

You're doing what you learned In support group?

Seven days a week, 24 hours a day.

Tell Adrien he's to protect you from retaliation.

Adrien told me to warn you that there's an extreme prejudice order threat.

It doesn't change anything.

- I love you. You have enough money? - I'm managing.

Okay, start with Azure.

- What did you do again? - Nothing!

- Why is it always my fault? - Because it Is.

If we can't trust the Service to have our backs.

- Seven days a week... - ...24 hours a day.

7,24...

Extraction, Fa.

Extraction, wait for the signal.

Who's extraction, hers? What else did she say?

You're doing what you learned In support group?

Tell Adrien he's to protect you from retaliation.

F8.

Absolute confidentiality.

Retaliation, F2.

Recipient.

Money.

1.

Berlin rules.

Fuck...

At the airport, I don't want a scene.

Not until I've handed you to your Shammarian friends.

Then you can scream, it won't be my problem.

We'll have to muddy the waters before the Canadians start connecting the dots.

- Who? Where? - The woman from Canadian services.

The one you were following that humiliated you in the lane way.

To serve as a lesson to the Canadian services.

I want them to get angry.

We don't think straight when we're angry.
