Original subtitles

You're not allowed to talk to him.

- Your new boss Is here. - Let me introduce VJ Logan.

We'll send your personal effects to your house.

Rachel Miller has caused us enough problems, I want her dead.

- I'll need Prime Minister's authorisation. - You'll have it.

- You lost your tail? - Yeah.

It's becoming harder. Thomassin keeps adding people.

- I know. - Mum!

- Hello, darlings! - When are you coming back?

As soon as possible. Emile, I'm counting on you.

You're doing what you learned In support group?

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

Extraction. Berlin Rules.

Your husband has expressed his wish to return to Shammar.

I don't believe you. He would never want to go back.

- My love! - Irene is a Canadian spy.

Your father is counting on you. On all of us.

- Are you ready to become a man? - What do I need to do?

It's too late to change your mind.

You'll leave my mother and sister alone?

We will have to muddy the waters.

- The woman from Canadian Services.

That humiliated you In the lane way. I want them to get angry.

Inspector Garand.

Sorry?

You're joking, right? We're on our way to the airport.

It's a bit late for...

Who authorised this?

Fine!

Change of destination.

CLASSIFIED

the other side of the world

I'm going the other side of the world

To feel the wind and the tide

To see if planet Earth is really round

And who lives on the other side

I'll look after it properly, I promise.

You couldn't even look after Nemo.

- It's not my fault Nemo died. - Stop winding up your sister.

Sometimes goldfish die.

- So I can have a dog? - Maybe.

- Ha! That's a no. - I said maybe.

What do you want with your toast?

- A coffee. - Sorry?

I'm old enough now. Valérie drinks it lots.

Not that much.

- You were there when I saw Marianne.

- I thought I... - You'd be deported?

Discussions have been pretty intense In the last 48 hours.

Long story short, things have been temporarily postponed.

By us. To your advantage.

You have five minutes to tell me why

I shouldn't collaborate with the Shammar authorities and let them have you.

The dissidents' network. Did you see all activity has ceased?

Yes, you've changed methods of communication.

No, I'm the last one in Canada.

All the others were gagged, deported, or eliminated.

- There were dozens of you. - No.

Only seven remained, three in Montreal.

We were pretending to be more, but there's always been a handful,

we each had several fake identities.

- And the explosives? - It's not us.

Don't follow him too closely.

Tango on his mobile. Standby.

One car please, corner of Doug and Begin West.

Tango walkers to mobile.

Walkers, stand by for pick up.

Shit, a pinball number.

It's me, you have something to write on?

Asimov, hummingbird, pretty, drum.

Let's say... 7 minus 5 plus 27

Mobile 2 and 3.

All walkers, locate Tango.

I repeat, locate Tango.

I lost him.

Come in.

- What can I do for you? - Operation Grenade.

The case Is closed? Yasser Chadli's on the plane?

Not quite, no. He's here, in the building.

Some details don't sit well with me, they don't add up.

One, it's been more than 30 days without another shooting or attack.

Two, a dissident group that doesn't blow up much more than opinions.

Zero indication of a terrorist act.

Three, members of that network eliminated in the last year,

three in one month, and we were to hand the last one to Shammar

while he's a source under contract with us, we never do that.

And four, with all due respect, exceptional political interference.

And five, all of this is based on information received by the CIA,

who have stolen one of our senior executives.

Smell anything fishy?

Put Grenade in isolation.

He must be on the next flight to the Emirates.

Do we understand each other?

There are national and international Issues that you don't understand.

You are replaceable.

And just to be clear,

this Is not a request, it's an order.

Why wouldn't the Canadians share this information with us?

It's difficult to collaborate with the CIA.

You're abusive, arrogant, pretentious...

Especially when it comes to terrorism.

The temptation to lead you on, as we say in Quebec, is pretty strong.

And you can point me to the files

where you've purposely manipulated us?

With access to your database, yes.

I'll just need restricted access to your archives of Canadian files.

It should be easy, right?

Ms Bartoli just ordered me to override the committee's decision

and to give Grenade back to the Shammarians.

Fucking politics!

Could we lose Grenade and his family for a few days without a trace?

- A transfer fuck up, lost documents. - I think I've got something.

There's a place we used to send agents when they did something really stupid.

- No one will look there. - Perfect, we'll drop him there and forget.

He'll be temporarily lost in the cracks.

- The meeting with Al-Nazef? - Organised.

We're telling him that he's on our radar?

Emile already did that. Okay, fine.

I get it. I have no right or need to know.

- How are you? - Tired.

Me too. I'm a bit sick of it.

It's like no one can make a decision and follow through, it's annoying.

That's why we are paid big bucks.

I'm earning less than with the police, and I sleep worse.

So, Grenade's transfer. You or me?

- Heads or tails? - Tails.

Looks like it'll be me.

I have news from Yasser.

Calm down.

I said, calm down.

I opened my home, my arms to you, gave you friendship

and this whole time, you were spying on us!

It's my job, Marianne. Yasser could be in deep shit for telling you who I am.

If you only knew how much I don't care. He's going to die!

No. He's safe in our offices.

Is this supposed to make me feel better? You lie through your teeth.

Yasser has a contract with us. We respect our contracts.

- I want to see him. - Soon.

For now, let's talk, woman to woman. Tell it like it is.

What do you want?

I have a message from Rachel.

Organise extraction, wait for the signal,

absolute confidentiality and Berlin Rules.

What does that mean, Berlin Rules?

It’s radical.

- She used you to deliver that message? - Mr McKenna, I have little patience.

My wife sends messages I don't understand and I can't do anything

So, politely... stop fucking around.

I would greatly appreciate it.

And the okay from the top? The extreme prejudice?

You know, Emile, in our line of work,

We only ever have two choices.

Wait and hope for the best, or take action.

I don't believe in hope.

I suggest you do the same.

What does that mean?

Change names and city?

If I accept, I can never live In the Emirates.

It's a big sacrifice, but we'd stay a family.

- Together. - What if I don't want to?

I won't be able to see you or speak to you again.

We pay for our choices.

I Know.

But when you're my age, you'll understand that we pay

for the choices of the people we love.

Here.

Can I ask you a personal question?

Yes.

Was fighting for your rights worth it?

I don't know anymore.

I like to think it was.

How do you feel?

Like I'm in an operating theatre...

anaesthetised, but awake,

watching you tear my life apart.

The contact is for emergencies only.

- My father is not gone. - I know.

- The SSC took him back. - I know.

They want to relocate us elsewhere, give us new identities.

- Where is your father right now? - I don't know.

Find out where he is and when he'll be transferred to be reunited with you.

Do not disappoint me.

Otherwise, I'll have to use your sister.

Go back home.

Contact me again when you know for sure.

Can you tell me what's happening?

You ditched your surveillance?

It's a bitch to remove on your own and I'll have to put it back after.

I wouldn't be a very good at S&M.

- How are you? - A bit stressed.

- You? - Things are moving.

And Grenade?

(Grenade is over. Yasser Chadli is the last dissident.

We'll put him in a safehouse until the Emir leaves.

I'd be surprised if it was that easy.

Sometimes there's a happy and simple ending.

Until you come back, what do I do?

Look after your own arse and don't make waves.

Emile. What's the matter with you?

Come in.

What's going on?

If I don't speak to someone I trust, I think I'll lose It.

So... start at the beginning, but get straight to the point, okay?

I have a patient waiting In the other room.

- Is it work, Rachel or the girls? - All three.

Salam, Mr Al-Nazef. Thank you for coming.

Interesting meeting location.

- You want to talk? - Not really, no.

You have exactly 24 hours to leave the country.

Not this old threat again?

I am a civil servant, accredited by my embassy.

And your activities are not compatible with that status.

You're burned.

You want a diplomatic incident now?

What would happen if, while the Emir is in Canada,

the media found out he has assassinated or abducted political refugees here?

I'm talking about the reaction in Canada, and from your other economic partners.

Your government won't say a word and won't do a thing.

Here, the government doesn't control the media or the opposition.

Your services would purposely leak this information?

I'd be surprised.

Try me. You'll be surprised.

Oh, yeah.

I'd also have to warn the CIA of what we're about to do.

The girls are being punished In their rooms. I need a break.

- What now? - Dad, I didn't do anything.

You don't want to know. They're lucky I'm patient.

I was really close to losing my cool.

You'll need a new remote for the DVD player.

The authorisation to kill Rachel. It's sorted?

Adrien.

Look at me.

Do I look like a guy who wants you to piss in his shoes?

What is my niece doing in the US?

We know it's not a conventional defection, she's not a defector.

Philip...

She's my niece. She's more fragile than you think.

Rachel Is clever.

She's a survivor.

Is that it? You want to use her for another one of your dirty tricks.

Careful. You're starting to take our friendship for granted.

Listen carefully.

If anything happens to her, I mean anything,

mark my words, you won't be done with me.

What will you do?

Warn the Americans?

You'll only have one direct link to a section of the archives.

Any attempt to access anything else will be blocked and we'll know.

Isn't it easier to transfer me to your regional offices?

Not while I'm responsible for your safety.

- Would you like an access course? - No. I'll be fine, thanks.

I'll leave you to it.

The money has been transferred.

The resource will be on site by tomorrow night

with the equipment you requested.

Yes, Sir.

Shame. I was starting to like them.

Feelings are not compatible with our line of work, Valérie.

I want to send a clear message.

No ambiguity.

Marine, Azure! I'm not joking! 10 minutes, or you can walk to school.

- Hurry up! We"ll get in trouble. - No, we won't.

- Azure? - What?

What do we do if Mum doesn't come back?

Any news from McKenna?

About what Thomassin wants to do to Rachel?

No one sees me, no one talks to me.

McKenna's your dad's oldest friend.

If he said he'd take care of it, he will.

When I started with the Service,

we called McKenna and your father the twins.

- I don't understand. - They were as crooked as each other.

That's nice. You've known each other forever.

I don't know how you do it. And I don't know why you do it.

It's our job, Anne.

I do what I do so ordinary people can sleep at night.

No one wants to know how I do it or who I do it to.

They just want to sleep at night.

Do you really think that?

Yes.

Emile...

They will kill Rachel.

It won't happen.

What will you do?

You don't want to know.

I've had news. Pack your bags. Just necessities.

- We'll transfer you tonight. - Dad?

Your dad as well. He'll be waiting for you.

Leave any electronic devices here.

It's for the best.

Mum, what do we do?

Whatever she says. Go get the suitcases from the basement.

You think that Al-Nazef will leave without making trouble?

He's burned. He gains nothing by continuing to provoke us.

- Yasser Chadli? - He fulfilled his contract.

- I only need your signature... - No.

Put him on a plane to Shammar.

It will save taxpayer's money.

Good work, Agent Beauvais.

What's happening with the security for the conference?

- Just a few loose ends to tie up. - I want to see the detailed plan today.

Thank you.

I organised everything to protect them.

- Martin was going to escort... - Don't change the plan.

We'll be there soon. Your family will join later.

If I can see Marianne and the kids, the rest Is...

Shit! Where did that come from?

Stay down!

The bullets go through the windows but not the armoured shell.

Central, Romeo code zero! Corner Goldman and Des Érables!

Driver, kilo India alpha. Principal is okay.

Feds are coming. We have to wait.

Yasser! No!

Go around the residences. See if anyone filmed anything.

You know that this is our job?

We're not looking for the same thing.

I'm sorry about your agent.

He was also one of yours.

Yeah, I know.

- And what will you do? - Wait, I'll be back.

Martin?

- And Grenade? - Disappeared.

No, no. You will do nothing. You're on compulsory leave.

Go home. This is with the action department.

- You can't bench me. - I just did.

- I should've been the one in the car.

We flipped a coin for the job.

You already finished your nap?

Don't touch me.

Come on, Azure. Give me a chance.

You leave us with our aunt, you keep changing your mind,

you don't keep your promises.

- We're not disposable, Emile - No, it's not Emile, it's Dad, okay?

- We're still a family, father and daughter.

The rebelling and moods were funny at first, but now I'm fed up.

- Mum would never let... - Mum's not here, I am.

Where's your sister?

She's not upstairs? She said she'd join you for a nap.

Marine?

Marine.

Liz Tonight 10 pm at the restaurant.

Marine?

Here.

What are you doing, sweetie?

It smells like Mum.

Our house is big without her, hey?

What are we going to do, Dad?

I don't know.

I don't know, sweetie.

Meg?

Leave, quickly!

There's a car waiting for you outside.

Add New

Chickadee.

How's the research going?

Your source, Mandrake, I've identified at least five suspicious files.

It was before my promotion in 2012, so I'm not sure.

I cannot grant you access to all these documents.

What's making you suspicious?

They all relate to national security decisions and meetings.

- And? - Something doesn't add up.

I need to think about it.

What will they do to her?

Who are you?

- Hey. - He's hungry!

Can I make him a bottle?

Why are they scared of Mr Chadli?

- What does he know? - No Idea.

Bartoli summoned her contact to the consulate.

Everybody's looking for Grenade. He's gone.

- His family? - Protected. They don't know yet.

Their media access has been blocked.

Find Chadli, and find out who is working with the Shammarians.

We're currently cross-checking.

Nothing definitive for now, but we have an interesting lead.

And how is the one who's keeping my chair warm?

She's working hard to make it a nest.

In position

Extraction tomorrow 20:10 - south side

cancellation 2 postponement 3

I'm Irene Beauvais' partner. Redflash. I need help.

They've kidnapped Irene. I think I've killed someone.

Two sources from the CIA keep coming up.

One between 2005 and 2012 when my uncle was the boss,

source CA217,

code name, Mandrake.

And after his retirement, two new sources,

CA218 and mostly CA233,

code name, Shannon-3.

What Is it?

Who's the link?

Chickadee

What's Operation Chickadee?

Chikadee

What aren't I seeing?

I don't like seeing you outside your office.

- Especially here. - Stop stressing.

You're allowed to live a little.

Liz...

UNKNOWN

- Yes? - Don't say anything. It's me.

I don't have much time.

What was the name of the operation to get me out of Caucasus in 20087

Focus. 2008, the name of the operation?

Mésange. Operation Mésange.

- Are you sure? - Yeah. Chickadee in English.

- Your uncle named it. - Chickadee?

Who else knew?

Your uncle, me, Robert, the army team that came with me to get you.

It was just between us. It wasn't added to the register.

Where are you? What's happening?

Everything's fine. I miss you.

I'll take the girls. I'll cross the border.

I'm coming to meet you.

- No. Emile, it's too dangerous. - The girls need you.

I have to go.

- Don't hang up, talk to me. - I love you. Hang in there.

Wait. We have to... Hello?

Your wife?

What did she want?

Is she back?

What Is it?

New message

REDFLASH Irene Beauvais kidnapped

Someone from my team is in trouble. I have to go.

Your guard dropped this.

I hesitated. I should've given it back earlier.

Yes, I made a call.

To my husband.

Why? To tell him what?

To confirm with him.

All the files associated to Mandrake between 2005 and 2012,

the code numbers don"t correspond to what the Service was using then.

I don't know how much you paid for them, but they're suspicious.

- Are you sure? - Emile confirmed it.

I knew from the start that you'd complicate my life.

I can sense these things.

Where is Yasser Chadli?

Don't be shy, scream.

No one can hear you here.

Isn't that true, my friend?
