[music]

>> Morning, Corrado.

>> Good night.

I waited half hour for bus, so walked.

Then I had to fight my way through the

chorus of Miss Side Bottom down there.

Anyway, I'm off.

Good night, Corrado.

>> Is that your real name?

>> Yes, it is. Why?

>> How long have you been on this

assignment, Harry?

>> 2 years.

>> Anything ever happen across the way?

>> Well, they changed their curtains

and the windows there now look purple, I

think.

>> Mhm. You better start filling in the C1

form or you'll have Colonel Wilson on

your back.

Corrado.

>> Yes.

They also started taking milk.

I think they're secretly putting it in

their tea.

>> Very valuable.

Thank you, Harry.

>> [cheering]

[cheering]

>> Jean.

It's me, Harry.

>> Oh, hello, Harry.

What's that noise?

>> Well, that that's some students outside

the North Korean Embassy.

>> What do they want?

>> I don't know what they want.

I know what I want.

Great.

So, we're on for tomorrow

>> Pick me up.

Where you think?

>> My place.

I think I've something

spicy.

>> I hope so.

>> [cheering]

>> Hold on a moment, Jean.

Looking ugly.

>> Oh, thanks.

>> No, no, no, not you.

>> You sure you want to see me tomorrow?

>> Of course I'm looking forward [music] to

seeing you.

>> A long time now.

Very long time now.

Uh-oh.

I'll call you back.

>> [cheering]

[cheering]

>> Who the hell are you?

>> Palmer.

>> What the [ __ ] are you doing here?

>> Emma, you wouldn't believe me.

>> What?

>> The red death.

>> What did he say?

>> Death to the reds, I think.

Couldn't find [music] his passport

anywhere, but we've managed to identify

him. His name is Anatole Kubitsky. He's

Russian. A genetic research scientist.

And I bet he's a part-time KGB agent.

I think he most probably had a heart

attack.

Do me a favor, doctor.

Have a look at his chest, just about

there.

>> If it's a poison, it must be very

powerful.

It's the old Bulgarian umbrella trick,

KGB specialty.

>> I thought they were out of business.

>> Here, mate. Where do you think you're

going?

>> Hey, Palmer.

>> Uh make an appointment. I'm having lunch

with Harold Macmillan at the club

tomorrow.

Oh, do you want to see me, Palmer?

>> Yes, sir.

>> Uh you'll have to make an appointment

with Henrietta.

>> You sent for me, sir.

>> Oh, did I?

>> Yes, sir.

>> Well, in that case, you better come in.

Go and Henrietta, remind me to call my

wife in 4 minutes.

>> Very nice.

>> Shut the door, will you, Palmer?

I suppose you better sit down.

You probably guessed what I need to talk

to you about.

>> Uh yes, sir, indeed. Dead Russian at the

North Korean Embassy.

>> I read your report, passed the file to

Corbins.

>> Oh?

I thought I was dealing with that.

>> You've seen the headlines?

>> Haven't read the papers, uh sir. Uh

we've been very busy what with these

staff reductions.

Don't get much time to read the paper.

>> Which brings us to your case.

Ah, yes, here we are, Palmer.

As I feared, uh

we're going to have to ask you for

accelerated retirement.

Effective immediately.

Of course, you'll have your pension.

Unfortunately, grade five, your acting

rank has never been confirmed.

So, you only qualify for grade six.

>> Bastards.

>> I beg your pardon?

>> I'd like to remind you, sir,

that I have been with this department

for 30 years.

>> Well, we mustn't live in the past,

Palmer.

>> I have been involved in some very

important cases.

There was the It It Chris Feale affair,

the funeral business in Berlin.

>> Yes, yes, yes, yes. All before my time

with the department. I don't deny that

you may have done some good work in your

time,

but that was yesterday.

And today is

today.

Thank you, Palmer.

Well, good luck in Sydney Street,

Palmer.

You were never really with the proper

military type.

>> Screw you.

>> What did you say?

>> Goodbye, sir.

And give my regards to your wife in the

customary manner.

Hello.

>> Mr. Palmer.

>> Speaking.

>> We understand that your services might

be available. Meet us tomorrow at the

Savoy Hotel at noon. We assure you it

will be worth your while.

>> Thanks.

>> Cheers, gov.

>> What will you be drinking?

>> Not now.

>> Just a drink?

>> Yes, please.

>> Follow please.

>> Could I have a vodka on the rocks,

please?

>> Yes, right away, sir.

>> I'm expecting someone. My name is

Palmer, [music]

if anyone asks.

>> Here you go, sir.

Uh Mr. Palmer?

>> Yeah.

>> Yeah, someone left this for you in the

cloakroom.

>> Thank you.

>> Bye.

Here's your drink, sir.

>> Thank you.

>> You're welcome.

Russia. Huh.

There's a car outside.

>> Where else?

>> Huh.

Have we met before?

>> Well, we've We've been introduced. My

name's Nikolai.

>> Oh, by the way, who was the woman who

phoned me in London?

>> Ah, that would be mother.

>> Very original.

We use that. Will I be meeting her?

>> No.

Follow me.

>> Where we going?

>> You'll find out when we get there.

>> Listen to me.

We're being followed, aren't we?

>> Yes, we are.

>> In a car?

You still do that here?

>> Yes.

>> Is there a seatbelt?

>> No.

>> Who are they?

>> The Chechens.

>> Is that bad?

>> Very.

>> Are you planning on losing them?

>> After this.

>> He's staying with us.

[ __ ]

>> [screaming]

>> Plan B.

>> What?

>> Plan B.

>> Oh.

This is plan B?

>> Get out.

>> She's a girl. She knows.

>> Now, would you get in the boat?

>> WHO WOULD THEY ASK FOR?

>> YOU.

>> WHY ME? I ONLY JUST got here.

>> You'll find out later. Now, get on the

boat.

>> I'll get on the boat.

>> [music]

>> Are you in charge of this operation?

>> Yes.

>> You're a bit young for the job, aren't

you?

>> Mr. Palmer, if you don't worry about my

youth, I won't worry about your age.

>> WHAT ARE YOU SAYING?

>> STOP. STOP. GET OUT.

GO.

GOODBYE. GOODBYE.

WHAT THE BLOODY

>> MY job is to get you where you're going

alive. That's what I intend to do. Now,

stay out or shut up.

>> Turning a problem.

>> Got it.

Goodbye.

>> Watch out. He may not be dead.

He's dead.

>> I'm sorry about that

incident.

>> You call that an incident? Bloody hell.

You said the Hermit Tash?

>> Yes.

>> I never made it there last time.

>> You won't this time, either.

>> Come on. Come on. Come on. Come on. Come

on. Come on. Come on.

>> You want to tell me where we're going?

>> To see Alex.

>> Who's Alex?

>> Alex is a

true survivor.

He's outlasted many regimes.

Brezhnev,

Khrushchev,

and hopefully Yeltsin.

>> You speak very good English.

>> I was educated in England. My father's

English. My mother's Russian.

>> That accent. Where did you go to school?

>> Eton.

>> Eton. I thought you bloody did. Who's

this?

>> Friend.

>> You sure?

>> Ah, Mr. Palmer.

Welcome back to Russia.

>> You call this a welcome? I've been shot

at practically sh-

>> I apologize.

You're working for me now, and I suppose

I have the enemies.

A bonus.

Another $5,000.

Let's call it danger money.

>> A good name for it, sir.

>> Mr. Palmer, you must be curious as to

why I brought you to Russia.

>> You could say that, sir. Yes.

>> Let me help you. My name is Alex

Alexevich. This is my home.

Nikolai,

leave us alone, please. Please.

Come this way, please.

>> It's a nice place you've got here, sir.

>> Yes, a legacy of pre-revolutionary days.

You must be tired, Mr. Palmer.

>> Um knackered, actually.

>> I will endeavor to satisfy your

curiosity. I want to employ you

on some extremely secret business.

>> Why me?

>> The usual agencies [snorts] have their

disadvantages.

The police are unreliable

and indiscreet.

And for various political reasons, the

KGB are no longer suitable.

It's very hard, you know, these days to

find um

unswerving loyalty

in a brand new market economy.

>> So, I get the job,

whatever it is.

>> Britain's loss is my gain.

So.

>> Cheers.

>> You see, Mr. Palmer, Russia is a country

that has always needed a strong man as a

savior.

I'm going to dedicate what is left of

the rest of my life to that end.

I have an agenda.

>> And what is that?

>> I'm sorry.

I cannot tell you that yet. But believe

me,

our ends will justify the means.

You see, before the dissolution of the

USSR, I was in charge of some extremely

secret research into

science of genetics

and its military implications.

Well, that has since been privatized. I

am now what you call the chairman of the

board.

And now,

one of its most important genetic

experiments has disappeared.

But please, eat, Harry.

Eat, please, Harry.

Do. Good.

The code name of our project was Alorex.

Our earlier experiments were with

rodents.

>> I see.

>> But as our knowledge advanced,

we plan to move on to human subjects.

>> Oh, really?

Please sit.

>> Centuries ago,

there was a plague

which came from the Orient by way of

Russia.

It destroyed between 2/3 and 3/4 of the

population of the West.

It was called the Black Death.

>> I was starting to wonder why you wanted

me.

>> One single drop of Alarex

is enough to mutate

and destroy the entire population of a

city of 1 million souls. They would

become

the human counterparts of these rodents.

>> Oh, bloody disgusting.

>> That is why we call it the Red Death.

>> I see.

>> Alarex is a binary product.

>> Binary? What's that mean?

>> Made up of two separate substances. It's

only when these are combined together,

it becomes dangerous.

Last week,

we discovered

that our sample was missing

along with a certain Professor

Kulpitsky.

>> Kulpitsky? I don't know that name. Uh

who would Who would want to uh buy uh

uh this, what do you call it, Red Death?

>> Well, our information tells us that it's

a certain

ambitious

but politically unacceptable power.

>> China.

>> Too obvious.

>> Iraq.

>> Try

What about

North Korea?

>> Has it occurred to you, sir, that

whoever stole the Alerax

might have already tried to sell it?

>> Our information is

the Alerax has not yet reached a

customer.

That's why you're here, Mr. Palmer.

I want you to find the route

by which it's being shipped.

You must locate the courier.

>> And what else?

>> Bring the Alerax back by whatever means

you find necessary.

I'm not being over-dramatic, Mr. Palmer,

when I tell you the fate of the world

could be in your hands.

>> Oh, I've saved the world a couple of

times before, sir.

What's the going price now?

>> 250,000

American dollars in cash.

>> No rubles?

>> No rubles.

Perhaps I should warn you, Mr. Palmer,

the people who followed you here from

the airport today

must have known why I brought you here.

They wanted information.

>> I have no any information to give.

>> In that case, they would have killed

you.

Well,

Mr. Palmer?

>> $250,000, that's uh

180,000 pounds, right?

And abroad.

Tax-free.

It's a deal.

When do I start?

>> You have already started.

>> When?

>> This morning.

>> Oh.

>> You think we could have a quieter day

tomorrow, Nick?

Nikolai.

You're on your own tomorrow.

Harold.

Harry.

Okay, fellas.

Let's go.

Hello, my name is Palmer. I have a

reservation.

>> Welcome to the Nevsky Palace Hotel, Mr.

Palmer.

Here is your registration card. And may

I have your passport, please? It's a

formality to stamp your visa.

>> Yeah.

Thank you.

>> You'll get it back in an hour.

>> [music]

[music]

>> Hello, Harry.

Sorry.

>> What's your Good to see you, Andrei.

>> You too.

>> How are things at the Lubyanka?

>> The prison is now a tourist attraction.

And I'm the manager of this restaurant.

>> Happens to the best of us.

>> Let's have a drink.

Here's to glasnost, perestroika,

democracy.

>> Market economy and big tits.

>> Big tits.

>> Yeah.

Cheers.

>> [singing]

[music]

>> I'm looking for a firm

that's stolen a deadly poison.

A substance called Alrex.

>> Well, um

there are three mafia groups in St.

Petersburg.

It could be any one of them.

>> At least crime is [music] flourishing in

Russia.

>> Yeah.

>> [singing]

>> I should like to make you a present,

Harry.

I think you'll need it.

I can offer you a Luger,

a Colt,

or its Russian equivalent.

>> I'll take the Colt.

>> You see that man looking at us?

His name is Yuri Stepanovich.

He's a big shot in the St. Petersburg

mafia.

Would you like to meet him?

>> If you must. [music]

>> I don't think you have a choice.

Hello, Yuri. Meet Harry Palmer.

>> I have heard about you, Mr. Palmer. You

work for Alex.

You should know that a friend of Alex's

not a friend of mine.

>> Too bad that he's mine.

>> Russia was

Russia can be expensive. [music]

>> Bloody hell, you're not kidding.

>> But some things are cheap.

For instance, for $200 you can have a

man killed.

>> Here's to long life. [music]

>> Whose life,

Mr. Palmer?

>> [music]

[music and singing]

>> She's pretty.

>> [music]

[singing]

>> Sorry, I'm late.

>> Hi, how are you? It's been a long time.

>> Yeah, sure has. Long time, Louie.

Who's this?

>> Grandson, Sasha.

>> Hello, Sasha.

>> Hello.

>> Oh, he speaks English. The future.

Deal with the New York Times.

>> No. They said they were no longer in

contact with the KGB. I didn't fit in

their budget.

>> You've lost the KGB?

>> They didn't have a budget.

>> What about CIA?

>> They said the reason was budget cuts.

>> And the French Surete?

>> Oh, they simply stopped paying me.

>> Poor old Louie, you've lost all your

contacts.

>> Oh, I still keep in touch with

everybody. I've lots of friends.

>> You still do the English football pools,

Louie?

>> Every week.

What brings you to St. Petersburg?

>> I need your help, Louie.

>> You only have to ask.

>> I could use a little money.

>> Oh, why not, Louie?

>> Could you make it dollars, Harry?

>> Why not, Louie?

A hundred do you?

>> Could you make it two, Harry?

>> Why not, Louie? Is that okay?

>> Thank you.

>> All right.

How much?

>> 10,000, Harry.

>> This will bring him good luck.

>> Thank you.

>> You're welcome.

>> It looks like our good luck is running

out.

>> What?

>> Behind us.

>> What?

>> Don't look around.

What normally comes around the corner?

>> Stop.

It's okay, Sasha.

>> Why are they after you?

>> I guess they found out I'm looking for

the alloy rings.

>> You know about the red debt?

>> Yeah, that's what

Louie, unlock the door.

Open the bloody door.

Louie.

Louie.

Louie, UNLOCK THE BLOODY DOOR. UNLOCK

GET IN THE CAR.

>> Go that way.

>> Go that way.

Actually,

>> Mr. Palmer,

you used to work for British

Intelligence.

>> Yeah, but not anymore.

>> So, you said.

What brings you to Russia, Mr. Palmer?

>> Business or pleasure?

Pleasure.

But, I haven't had very much so far.

>> It appears from your visa that you are

here as a tourist.

>> Yeah.

Looking, seeing sights.

>> Some of them are very pretty.

For instance, those three gangsters we

found dead.

Did you kill them?

>> I don't even have a gun, Captain.

>> But the police car has been badly

damaged.

>> Yeah, well, I wasn't driving the other

car.

>> What have you been up to, Mr. Palmer?

>> Well, I I you know, I've just been

seeing old friends.

>> Apparently, you have some quite

important old friends.

And enemies.

But if I were you, Mr. Palmer, I would

be very, very careful.

Some people would prefer you dead.

>> I don't even know who they are, Captain.

>> By the way,

make sure that you don't break the law.

>> Yes, sir.

>> Mhm.

>> Thank you, sir.

Excuse me, sir.

Thanks for the lift, sir. Appreciate

that.

>> This is for you, from grandfather.

This is from me for good luck.

Thank you.

>> Thank you.

Take the bullet to Beijing tonight at

midnight. The Alerax will be on board.

Be careful.

They're trying to kill you.

>> Yes?

>> Mr. Palmer?

I need to speak with you.

>> Just a minute.

>> Can I come in?

It's okay. No one knows I'm on the

train.

>> You're You're Anatasha.

The girl in the boat.

You've been following me.

>> That's right.

>> Oh.

You're an American?

>> No. No, I'm Russian.

>> Russian?

>> Uh well, uh my father was a military

attaché in Washington, so I grew up in

America.

>> Oh.

Are you going somewhere?

>> Do you like it?

>> Yeah, it's uh

very nice. Mhm.

What What can I do for you?

>> Well,

actually, Harry, I was hoping there was

something I could do for you.

>> Oh, you feel I might be a bit lonely,

right?

>> Well,

>> are you trying to seduce me?

Because if you are, I don't know any

secrets.

Hey.

Hey.

Hey.

Hey.

You haven't done this before, have you?

>> No.

>> I thought so.

Sit down.

Come on.

Sit down.

Do you want to tell me why you're really

here?

Huh?

No?

You're working for Alex, aren't you?

Did he send you here?

Come on.

>> I'm supposed to help you in any way I

can.

>> Funny you should say that,

because

I do need some help.

Could you have breakfast with me in the

morning?

>> Breakfast?

>> Yeah.

Just breakfast.

>> Thanks.

>> Harry Bomb.

You don't remember me?

>> No.

>> Well?

>> Well?

>> [snorts]

>> Well?

>> Well, what do you think? I did my job.

Isn't that what you wanted me to do?

>> Craig Warner.

CIA?

Washington, 1983.

>> Yeah, yeah, yeah.

What are you up to?

>> Well, I'm not working for Uncle Sam

anymore.

They're cutting back to their last 20

aircraft carriers, they made me

expendable.

>> Well, that'll help.

>> [laughter]

>> What are you doing in Russia?

>> Sort of freelancing.

I'm really glad to see you.

>> Great to see you.

By the way, uh congratulations.

Oh, friend of the family.

>> Oh.

>> Nice to see you.

>> Good.

Do you got any spares?

>> [laughter]

>> No.

>> Hey, buddy, let's get together.

>> Sure.

>> I'd like to hear what you've been up to.

Take care.

>> Yeah.

>> [sighs]

>> Good morning.

>> Good morning.

>> Tea, please.

>> You know him?

>> He's an American.

I know who he was,

but I don't know who he is.

Piva Heineken.

Do you know him?

>> Who?

>> Him.

>> Oh, that's Colonel Gradsky.

>> What does he do?

>> He was a diplomat.

>> And KGB.

Another unemployed spy.

>> He works.

>> For whom?

>> I don't know.

>> Honest?

>> Who is it?

>> Nikolai.

Evening, Harry.

>> What a surprise.

You following me?

>> Just making sure you're all right.

>> Alex must have made sure I don't get

lonely, huh?

I could do with a drink.

Care for a midnight stroll?

How'd you know I was on this train?

Don't tell me.

Alex knows everything.

You said your father was English.

>> That's right.

>> You know what he did for a living?

>> Only what my mother told me.

He was in intelligence.

>> British intelligence?

>> That's right.

Maybe you knew him.

>> Maybe.

Why didn't your mother try to keep in

touch with him?

>> It's not easy to keep in touch with

British intelligence.

>> It is hard to find, isn't it?

>> You see, when they met,

>> [music]

>> she was also in intelligence.

>> In Russian intelligence.

Oh, I see.

The old honey pot trap.

>> But they fell in love.

And I was the one who got stung. Huh.

She kept me a secret from him.

You were educated in England, huh? At

Eton?

Who paid for that?

My motherland.

Oh, you regard this as your motherland,

do you?

Well, it certainly is my mother's land.

But is it yours?

Yes.

But your father was English.

When you don't know your father's name,

you'd be amazed how often the word

bastard comes up in conversation.

Especially at Eton.

You don't think you were the only

bastard at Eton, do you?

>> [laughter]

>> No.

>> No.

>> So, now you work for Alex.

>> Yes.

>> Is he a bastard?

>> No.

He may be the one man to save us

Russians.

>> I hope you're right.

How much does he tell you?

>> As much as I need to know.

>> Do you know the reason I'm on this

train?

>> No.

>> Alex asked me to find something.

Will you help me look for it?

>> My job is just to keep an eye on you,

but

you might want your gun back.

>> Thanks.

What does that say?

To be delivered to the North Korean

Embassy, [music]

Beijing, China.

>> It's got a diplomatic seal.

Let's open it.

>> You think that's a good idea?

>> I'll show you how to open the box

without disturbing the seal.

>> That's far enough,

Mr. Palmer.

I'd prefer you both with your hands up.

Thank you. That's better.

>> I didn't notice much improvement.

>> I'm afraid we have different points of

view, Mr. Palmer.

>> Why can't we be friends, Colonel?

I understand you're ex-KGB.

We're both in the same boat.

We're both recently redundant.

>> But not in active

at the moment, Mr. Palmer.

Your curiosity is causing me some

inconvenience.

>> What are you going to do?

Shoot us?

>> Sasha, toilet.

Well,

I'm not a cruel man.

And you're right.

We are all What is the phrase?

In the same boat.

>> And up the creek.

You said you weren't a cruel man,

Colonel.

Can we wait for a slow bit?

GET OFF.

BLOODY OFF.

IS THIS SIBERIA?

OF COURSE IT'S bloody Siberia.

You haven't got a train timetable, have

you?

>> [laughter]

>> Can we wait for a slow bit?

>> [screaming]

>> I can't believe you bloody said that.

Where the HELL ARE YOU GOING?

Follow the train.

This is the only way it can go.

We have a track.

A trail.

Have you got a better idea?

Yeah, shoot you.

Have you ever been chucked off a train

before?

No, I've never been that stupid.

Have you? Yeah.

And twice.

What did you do then?

I took a taxi. IT WAS IN LONDON.

WHERE THE HELL DID THAT COME FROM?

THERE'S AN AIRPORT. HUH?

There's an airport.

Over this way.

>> What did she say?

She said that the ticket office will be

open a little later.

I'll toss you for it.

Heads or tails? Heads.

What does that say?

Cafe bar.

I'll be in there.

[ __ ]

So, what did you find out? Well, the

good news is I got two tickets on the

evening flight to Irkutsk.

And the train doesn't get there until

tomorrow morning. Great.

So, what's the bad news?

Nate,

you said there were only two seats left

on the plane. One in the cockpit with

the pilot. Yes, I know. I know. And the

other in the toilet.

Heads or tails?

Tails.

You're in the toilet.

Let me

I'm learning from you all the time.

>> [laughter]

>> For the benefit of our English

passenger, please make it sure that

everything is in an upright position and

prepared to take it off. Thank you.

>> When do we get to Irkutsk?

When do we get to Irkutsk?

>> We shall not get to Irkutsk.

NOT ENOUGH GAS.

>> YOU MUST HAVE KNOWN THAT BEFORE YOU

LEFT.

>> On this plane NOTHING WORKS.

HOW WAS I ABLE TO KNOW THAT YOU gauge

worked?

We'll land

here.

>> Ratz.

Where the hell's Ratz?

>> Down there.

>> Congratulations.

How was the cockpit, Harry?

>> You don't want to know. How was the

toilet?

>> Harry, meet Ilona.

Ilona, Harry.

>> Hello.

>> You found her in the toilet?

>> Oh, this is not a cruise.

>> No, no. This is uh Bratsk.

>> Bratsk?

>> Where the hell's Bratsk?

>> It's

somewhere else in Siberia.

>> Oh, but I must get to Irkutsk. My mama

is waiting there for me.

>> I wish my mother was love.

You think there's a Hertz or Avis around

here?

>> Mhm.

Wouldn't bank on it.

I'll tell you what.

If we could find a place where we could

buy a vodka,

I bet we find our way to Irkutsk.

What over there?

Yeah.

That might be a bar.

We have American [music] dollars.

And we will give to anybody who will

drive us to Irkutsk

$1 for each mile.

>> Pyotr Sergeyevich.

>> [singing]

>> Come here.

You will drive my friends to Irkutsk.

>> Ah, zdraste.

>> Go on.

Go.

>> Yeah.

>> Go on.

>> Yeah, idi.

>> Cameron is friend.

Okay, let's go.

I suppose you're checking in with Alex,

are you? Come on.

Bretts.

Who the hell is

Bretts?

Get me Louie.

Daddy.

See your mommy in the morning.

>> Hello.

>> What did you tell Harry Palmer?

>> Tell him

I I told him the Alex was on the train.

>> Well, Colonel Gradsky has him thrown off

the train.

And I have a feeling

>> Alex, you're my best friend. I did

nothing.

>> Alex, Alex, I I did nothing.

>> What do you want, Louie? I am busy.

>> It wasn't my fault. I I just did as I

was told. I gave the message to Harry to

watch Colonel Gradsky.

>> Don't you realize you bloody fool,

Gradsky works for Alex.

I want what Gradsky's got.

That's why Professor Kolbitsky was

working for me.

Harry Palmer is becoming

Where is he now?

>> Bratsk.

>> Bratsk.

Where the hell is Bratsk?

Wait a minute. I know [music] somebody

in Bratsk.

Louie.

>> Don't Louis.

>> Don't to anybody. Stay home.

>> YURI WANTS HARRY PALMER KILLED.

>> [music]

>> HOW FAR to Irkutsk?

>> I suppose about 5 miles. What time is

it?

Nearly 8:00. What time does the train

leave? 8:15.

>> No problem.

>> [music]

>> Just pick any gear. They're all in the

same box.

>> Panic.

>> What

>> 10 past 8.

>> You've got plenty of time. 5 minutes.

No [music] problem.

>> What the [ __ ]

Faster! I've got my foot on the floor.

>> [music]

>> Where did you learn to drive like that?

>> The pyramid.

>> Faster, yes!

>> Faster, you'll never make it.

>> Buy yourself a new car. [music]

Say goodbye to your mother.

>> I'm too old for this.

>> I DON'T BELIEVE WHAT I'M SEEING.

>> Surprise.

Two surprises.

What are you doing here?

>> She's my daughter.

>> What?

>> She's my daughter.

>> He

is your father?

>> Yes.

>> Sweet surprises.

Sit down.

If your father is the courier I'm

looking for,

he may be stealing from Alex.

And you are helping him.

>> He's not stealing from Alex.

We're both working for him.

>> You're both working for Alex?

Then why did you throw us off the train?

>> I didn't know you were working for Alex

until Natasha told me.

By then you were both somewhere in

Siberia.

>> Tell me about it.

So, we're all working for Alex, right?

Question.

What have you got in the box that you're

taking to Beijing?

>> I don't know.

>> You don't know?

>> When you work for Alex,

you don't want to know.

>> I think it's time you found out.

>> Open it.

>> All right.

>> Why didn't you tell me he was your

father?

>> Because I was told not to.

You know how Alex works. Nobody's told

more than they need to know.

>> Give me one of the bottles.

Substance A-232.

Open it.

>> Are you crazy?

>> That's all right.

Alerix is a binary chemical weapon. It

consists of two ingredients,

both of which are harmless separately.

A-232 is one of them. It's probably

disguised

as fertilizer

or some other industrial chemical. Put

the top back.

>> Welcome back, Harry.

Do yourself a favor. Put that gun away.

Close that case.

>> You're not up to your old tricks again,

are you, Craig?

You haven't got the other half of the

Alerix, have you?

>> No.

Still making guesses.

>> I know.

You deliver the Alerex

and get paid in heroin

in Beijing.

Arms for drugs.

Just like the contras in Nicaragua.

>> Another guess.

>> I don't have to guess where you fit in,

Greg.

We're all working for Alex.

And you, Colonel,

are about to stop smuggling drugs.

>> That's why he's here.

He's an expert.

He's here to make sure the drugs are

pure.

Quite a step down, eh, Colonel?

From military attache in Washington.

>> That's enough.

>> You,

open the door.

>> What is it?

>> Mongolian border.

>> I recommend we all go back to our

compartments and get our passports as

quickly as possible.

>> Now, move.

Move it.

>> Did you know about this?

Or were you told not to tell me?

Is this how you're building Alex's new

Russia?

>> I don't know who this guy is,

but Harry's wrong.

>> You never knew the whole story.

Well, the North Koreans get the the

Alex gets the drugs and winds [music] up

stinking rich.

We have to stop him.

No one can stop him.

We can try.

>> You're letting him make a fool of you.

Alex doesn't care about Russia or you or

me or anyone else but himself.

>> Natasha has been trying to turn me

against Alex.

This could be suicide.

>> Our whole lives have been suicidal.

What do you say?

>> What does he say?

>> I say

that Alex has an agenda.

I say that he knows what he's doing and

why he's doing it.

I say neither you or anyone else here

is going to stop it.

That's what I say.

>> You know what Alerex is and what it

does.

What do you say to that?

>> The end justifies the means.

>> I bet you get paid in drugs, not cash.

But that wouldn't be a problem with you

either, would it?

>> That's why he had me carry $5 million to

Switzerland.

>> That's right.

At least we can do something about the

Alerex.

Will you help me?

>> Cheers.

>> Cheers.

>> Need something else.

Another

>> ingredient.

I know just the ingredient.

I'll be back in a minute.

>> Keep drinking, Colonel. I can't top up

all these bottles by myself.

>> [music]

>> In less than an hour we'll be in

Beijing.

Just don't want to be around

when North Koreans find out what's in my

case.

>> Your contact in Beijing is Kim Soo,

right?

He was in the embassy at London.

I know him well.

My problem is I still haven't found the

other ingredient.

You don't have it, do you?

>> No.

>> What about Natasha?

>> No, not Natasha.

Alex wouldn't trust her that far.

And Nick?

>> Not his job.

>> Well, there's no one else.

>> What did I say at the airport security?

Is this your bag?

Did you pack it yourself?

Did anyone give you

a present?

Take the bullet to Beijing.

The Alerax.

They on board.

No wonder Louis

knew it would be on board.

The bullet to Beijing.

And I thought it was a [ __ ] train.

>> Colonel Gratzki, the honorable Kim Soo

sends greetings. [music]

So, please follow me, please.

You too, Mr. Palmer. Please.

>> You come with us, [music] too. You can

keep Harry company.

>> What the [ __ ] are you doing, Craig?

>> Your job is done. Get lost.

Okay, move it.

>> So, this way, please.

>> You still think the end justifies the

means?

>> What the [ __ ] is that?

>> [music]

[music]

>> Guess your way out of this, Harry.

>> Greetings, my dear Colonel, and welcome

back to Beijing.

>> Kim So, may I present my daughter,

Natasha?

>> I am honored to meet you, Natasha.

>> Harry.

>> Good to see you again.

>> Hello, Kim So. Long time no see.

>> [laughter]

>> Mr. Palmer is an old friend. When I was

at our embassy in London, we used to

meet for lunch every Friday and toss for

whether I put him on my expense account

or he put me on his.

We usually did both.

You have new dirty stories, Harry?

>> Of course, Kim.

>> Ah, Mr. Warner, everything is ready.

Please take a look.

>> [clears throat]

>> So,

this

is A232.

>> Strange.

I expected a stronger smell.

>> Could be vodka with a little bit of

ammonia.

>> Oh, we'll soon find out about that.

Harry,

you have something for me?

>> No.

>> Uh, something from Louie?

>> From Louie?

Is that it?

>> That's it.

One more thing, Harry.

Your passport.

>> Passport?

How am I going to get out of China?

>> Don't worry. We have plenty of new

British passports.

>> Why do you need my passport, then?

>> Souvenir of old friend.

>> Souvenir, huh?

>> We really must be going, or we may miss

the train.

>> You Russians, always in a hurry, but

getting nowhere.

Ah, Mr. Warner, you satisfied?

>> Yep. Everything checks [music] out.

>> You may go now.

Ah,

Mr. Warner, the

will be in the truck.

>> It's been great to see you again.

>> I am truly sorry about this, Harry.

Unfortunately, you know too much.

Looks harmless, doesn't it, Harry?

It will take 24 hours to find out.

And if there is a problem,

we will find our friends, and they will

die, too.

>> Is this where

Kim Sue?

>> It's Nikolai Petrov, Alex's assistant.

Is Mr. Palmer there?

>> Yes, we have him.

>> There's been a change of plan.

I've had an order from Alex,

and Mr. Palmer has to come back to

Russia,

and we'll take care of him later.

>> Don't worry.

I'll take care of him.

All right, Harry.

You can go now.

>> I don't like these new passports.

Tell me Kim Soo.

Would you really have done it?

>> Happily, we will never know, will we,

Harry?

>> If Alex thinks I'm dead,

you're going to have to find me a safe

house.

You're all right, Nick?

No, thank you.

Nick.

>> I'm going to break rule number one.

I'm going to tell you more than you need

to know.

The Alerax was fake.

>> Oh, really?

So, why did Alex hire me?

>> To make it look real.

It was a scam.

We sell fake Alerax to the North Koreans

and they finance our cause.

When they find out it's fake, you take

the fall.

>> Finance your cause?

Finance it with heroin.

Because that's what it was.

I saw it.

Or didn't Alex tell you that?

It was real heroin

and real Alerax.

Kim Soo

he me for my passport.

I always carry two.

I gave him one.

And this is the one

that I handed in at the hotel.

The one

that Alex knew

I had to take with me.

And this is what Alex left inside.

The formula for Alerax.

And you know where he got it?

From the passport that you and the old

lady lifted off Kubrisky's body.

Yeah, I saw you.

You were in London.

Were you saving Russia then? Huh?

Do you know how much that's worth?

Millions [music] of dollars on the open

market.

And it could cost millions of lives.

Give me a lighter.

I'll show you what I think of it.

There you go.

It's not Alex who is saving Russia.

It's you who should be saving Russia

[music] from Alex.

There's one more thing I'd like to ask

you.

Why did you take such a risk in Beijing?

To phone and get me out.

>> You ever get caught in a honey pot trap,

Harry, with a Russian agent?

>> No.

No.

>> You're lying.

>> [music]

>> What are you doing?

>> Just in case.

Yuri's on his way out.

>> The drugs are being loaded. They're

yours for the taking.

Everything

is as I said.

>> It's nice doing business with you, Mr.

Brown.

And the surprise

is all arranged.

You've got

5 minutes to get your friends out of

there.

I'm glad you're no longer friends of

Alex.

>> I just hope your police get here within

the next 5 [music] minutes.

Yeah.

That truck's about ready to

Uh-oh.

Nick.

I know.

I saw him.

Keep walking.

>> [music]

>> Surprised?

Guess your way out of this.

>> OH, [ __ ]

>> I THOUGHT YOU WERE DEAD.

>> WE COULD ALL BE DEAD. YURI'S WORKING FOR

KIM JONG-UN.

>> THIS IS KIM'S REVENGE.

>> [screaming]

[screaming]

>> WE'VE GOT TO STOP THE TRUCK.

>> I'LL TOSS you for it. Heads or tails?

>> Hey, you lose. I'll go.

>> KEEP ME COVERED.

FOLLOW ME.

>> [screaming]

>> GREAT, NICK.

WHERE THE HELL ARE THE POLICE?

>> Do you see what I see?

>> Yeah.

>> Grab your key lighter gun.

>> Hey Joker, I don't want to smoke.

>> Light a cigar.

>> [screaming]

>> We're innocent bystanders.

Get rid of your guns.

>> Get ready.

>> And get up slowly.

>> Nobody knows us here.

>> How did he get out of there?

>> HARRY.

>> WHAT?

>> GET DOWN. GET DOWN.

WHAT THE HELL IS THIS?

WHO ARE YOU working for?

>> DEA.

>> What?

DEA?

>> You got it.

I've been trying to bust these guys for

2 years.

>> Jesus Christ.

>> Get up.

>> You okay?

>> Yeah.

>> Look innocent.

>> I'll give it a shot.

>> Look.

Now we're in real trouble. That's Alex's

car.

If you think we're in trouble now,

wait till this guy sees me.

>> Mr. Palmer.

Not more.

You are under arrest.

>> If they find the heroin, then we're all

under arrest.

>> Give me a cigar. [music]

>> Run.

>> What?

>> Mr. Palmer

What are you really doing here in the

Russia?

>> I told you.

I'm a tourist.

I came to see my friends.

This is uh

Colonel Gratsky of the KGB.

>> It's all under control, Captain.

You are dismissed.

>> Slushays.

>> Don't break the law.

>> Yes, sir.

>> You and I tried to convince me you were

dead.

But somehow I suspected you'd turn up

today.

>> I see you've managed to turn them all

against me.

No matter.

Nothing will deter my course.

>> What are you going to do? Kill me?

>> No, not today, Harry.

Some other time.

>> And maybe

>> I'm an honorable man. I always pay my

debts.

Oh, by the way

thank you for saving me the

inconvenience of explaining my

connection with the heroin.

Here's your money.

Spend it quickly before we meet again.

>> I hope not.

Let's go.

>> Nate

take me back to the hotel.

>> But But you'll miss your flight.

>> No, I'm thinking of staying here in

Russia.

>> And what for?

>> I don't know. I might be uh start a

business.

>> You're joking.

>> No, there's a There's a There's a of

insecurity in this country. And you're

going to provide the security. Why not?

Well, what are you going to call this

business?

I don't know. The

tight fit t-shirt company. That'll be my

security. Maybe Craig and General

Gratski will join me.

What about you?

>> Well, Natasha was thinking about going

to the States. [music]

>> Yeah, she told me.

But she didn't mention you.

>> She didn't?

>> No.

>> Well, I guess I won't be going then.

Anyway, I've been there, I've done that.

>> You want to try for a t-shirt?

>> You got anything in medium?

>> A tight fit one size fits all.

>> All right.

But on one condition.

You tell me [music] the truth about the

honey pot trap.

>> So, you want to know the truth about the

honey pot trap, huh?

>> All right.

But tell me, Nick.

Have you got a mole

on the left cheek of your ass?

>> No.

>> Neither have I.

You know,

we could be related.
