- Yeah, sure.
- Then what?

We can get tickets
for something to see?

- We can see the symphony.
- Huh?

It'll finish really late.

We can catch the last train,
huh?

Excuse me.
Could you give me a light?

Yeah, sure.

You're Americans, yes?

Yes, sir.
We're on a summer trip.

Please,
take this to your embassy.

It is vital.
I have no other way.

Come on. Let's get out of here.

Do not go back to your hotel,
straight to the embassy.

Give this only
to Deputy Chief of Mission.

Understand?

- Thank you.
- Mm.

- Emily. Lovely as ever.
- Ah!

You do brighten up
the old place.

Oh, thank you.

- Emily?
- Sir.

- Please sit down.
- Ah.

I've brought you boys a present.

Ah, thank you.

Rachel, step out.

I fear a nuclear war is coming

and I want to help you
prevent it.

It's got my attention.

He's smart.

Gave us a photo
only we'd have copies of

from a few years ago
in our embassy in Turkey.

Say hello to Colonel Oleg
Vladimirovich Penkovsky.

Code name "Ironbark".

Artillery officer
during the war,

decorated 13 times.

Now he's back in Moscow

running the State Committee
for Scientific Research.

But that's just a cover.

He's GRU.

Why they toss him?

Hand like this
I keep place to my chest.

Because they have
no way to make contact.

The CIA is weak in Moscow
after that...

disaster with Popov. Am I right?

We're thin on the ground.
We need your help.

Let's get him out.

We've got a number of
good officers in our embassy.

I'll have one make contact
with Penkovsky,

- get this sorted out.
- I did have a thought.

This is a GRU Colonel.
He's so visible.

I'm worried
we could blow Penkovsky

just by making an approach.

That's always a risk. What would
the CIA have us do instead?

I don't know.

Maybe use someone
outside the embassy

who the KGB won't suspect?

Say a businessman who travels
to that part of the world.

Do we know of someone
who could fit the bill?

I have to warn you,

I have a pretty good feeling
about this.

Oh, hell.

And Greville,
that is the saddest thing

I've ever seen.

Well, serves me right,

I should keep my mouth shut.

Now we have to make it up.

We probably have some brochures.

Of what?

A drink first, I think.

You know my reputation.

Parts I want you to know anyway.

I represent
the top manufacturers

who sell the best products
on the market.

So in combination with you
gentlemen knowing your business,

I think it'd be much better if

instead of my usual song
and dance.

I just listen. You tell me what
your problems are,

and if I think I have a client
that may have a solution,

let's talk it through.
If not, let's keep drinking.

So tell me, what do you need?

- Thanks, Greville.
- Bye.

It still doesn't add up.

Well, did you miss something
maybe?

- Like carrying the four?
- Oh, yes.

- Oh, yes.
- How are you?

Oh, very well. Except our son
keeps confusing me

helping with his homework
with me doing it for him.

Oh.

- How was your day?
- Oh, the usual.

Some empty flatteries
and blatant sucking up.

No, really,
you should have seen me.

I sold a dozen lace by throwing
the easiest putt

in the history of putting.

- I feel filthy.
- No. No.

You have to play golf badly.

- But aren't you used to that?
- Uh-huh!

Well, just think
another 23 years of this

and then we're off
to the good life.

Or I could retire early.

Andrew, you don't want
to go to university, do you?

Not really.

- Perfect.
- Well, I'm not feeding

either of you.

Then what you're smiling at?

Be at least 50 years
until you can retire.

- Greville Wynne, please?
- Yeah. Let me see if he's home.

- Sounds like work.
- No. Tell them I'm in my chair.

Yes. He's just walked in.

- Greville Wynne.
- Greville, this is James Dobie

from the Board of Trade.
We met last year.

Yes. Yes. At the reception
of Whitehall.

James.
How good to hear from you.

- James, hello.
- Greville.

I hope you don't mind.

My friend Helen is a consultant
in from the States.

I thought, "Why not?"

Greville Wynne. A real pleasure.

Helen Talbot, likewise.

James tells me you've been
working in Eastern Europe.

Hmm. More and more,
tremendous opportunities.

Plenty of demand,
no local supplies.

Czechoslovakia, Hungary.

Ghastly food.

What about the Soviet Union?

Oh, not just yet. Someday.

I'd like to see temperatures
cool off a bit first.

Actually now might be
the perfect time.

Oh, really? Why?
What did you hear?

Well,
Helen and I have associates

who would be interested
to see what might come of it.

It would be a real service
to Great Britain.

And the world.

Forgive me. I'm just a bit...

Sorry. James,
I know you said you had

an office in Board of Trade.

But...

Is it possible
that you actually work...

at a different branch
of Her Majesty's government?

Oh, my.

This is unexpected.

Sorry, I... I don't understand.

Why, I'm... I'm...
I'm just a salesman.

Exactly. An ordinary salesman

with no connection
to the government.

Look, this is all fascinating.
I mean, I really can't believe

I'm actually having lunch
with spies.

But...

...I couldn't possibly...

- What would you want me to do?
- Nothing dodgy, nothing illegal,

just what you would
naturally do.

I'm sorry. I don't follow.

Someone in your field

hoping to do business
in the Soviet Union,

how would you get started?

Well, I suppose I'd set up

a meeting
with the State Committee

for Scientific Research
in Moscow.

That sounds fine.

So you want me to go to Moscow
and then...

Do business.

All this secrecy
must seem absurd

but I promise, it's to help you.

We want you to act exactly like

the ordinary businessman
you are.

That'll be much easier
if you don't know any details.

Right. But would I be putting
myself in danger?

That detail, I... I have to know.

Greville,
let me put this delicately,

you're a middle-aged businessman

who drinks a bit too much
and isn't exactly in top shape.

During the war,
you were a private,

never even saw combat.

My point is, if this mission
was the least bit dangerous,

you really are the last man
we'd send.

Well, thank you for putting it
so delicately.

Make sure you wear it
while you're in Moscow.

What does this do?
Shoot poison dart?

Thank you so much, Greville.
You're a good man.

And I know we can count on you
to be discreet.

How's your day?

Oh, it was fine.

Mine was wonderful.
Thank you so much for asking.

So sorry, I've got a head
full of contracts.

Uh. You out with, uh, Tomado,
weren't you?

Yes, we were at the club,
planning the charity dinner.

- That was amusing.
- Huh!

Before you ask if you have
to come, yes, you have to come.

- I've had an interesting lead.
- Really?

Might look at doing a little bit
of work in the Soviet Union.

Hmm. Do stay out
of The Gulag, darling.

How do you do? Greville Wynne,
pleasure.

How do you do? Greville Wynne,
pleasure.

How do you do? How do you do?

And this is the head
of our committee,

Oleg Penkovsky.

Ah, pleasure to meet you.

Thank you for coming.

I'm not here to tell you

what is best
for Soviet industry.

You gentlemen know that
far better than I ever will.

I'm here simply
to open a door...

...to the top manufacturers
in the West.

Your proposal is interesting.

- Would you like to have lunch?
- Of course...

after you.

It is good you have dealt

with other communist
governments

but so far from home.

Do you not prefer to work
in England?

I do what I can
to keep things interesting.

But then,
there's the political situation.

This is not good time
for East and West.

Well, what I like to say
is no matter what

the politicians are doing,

factories still need machines,
machines still need parts.

I'm a businessman,
so I stick to business.

Hmm!

- Do you have a family?
- I do, a boy, he's ten.

I wanted a boy very much,
then we had a girl...

now she's my world.

Mm. Likely not destroying
your home like our son.

Now... most important question.

If you want to do business
in Moscow,

I need to know...

Yes?

...can you hold your alcohol?

It's my one true gift.

I want to show you another side
of Russia.

- Are you free this evening?
- Certainly.

Where are we off to?

Do you know Cinderella?

Embarrassed to say,
I've never been to the ballet.

Then your trip is already
worth it.

If you will, mister.

Shh!

Your tie clip, I like it.

Where did you get it?

It was a gift from a friend.

- Is your friend American?
- Yes.

We can talk here.

It is safe.

I sent word to your friend,
you're, um...

- I think the word is "amateur".
- Yes, exactly. Amateur.

I've dreamt of this moment
for a very long time. Thank you.

I wish I could tell you
how much this means.

I think I'd rather
that you didn't tell me.

What happens now?

I don't need to do anything,
do I?

No, you go home.

Then you invite me
to visit London

with a trade delegation
to meet your clients.

Your government would allow you?

They would be thrilled.

Part of my job
is to steal technology

from the West.
Your friend is clever.

Well, Oleg. May I call you Oleg?

In English,
my name doesn't sound good.

Call me Alex.

Alex.

You're a good amateur.

Since you took me
to the Bolshoi,

I suppose I should take
all of you

to the West End.

Some of the finest theater
in the world.

That would be good.

And this is my wife, Sheila.

- Nice to meet you.
- Nice to meet you.

- Nostrovia!
- Nostrovia!

Cheers!

Up yours, as well.
That's another one.

- Up yours!
- Up yours!

- Up yours!
- Up yours!

- Off you go.
- Hello.

Hello, goodbye.

We know you're a patriot.

We know how hard
this must be for you.

Colonel,
whatever brought you here...

it must frighten you more than
the danger of being here.

Khrushchev.

Khrushchev frightens me.

He is impulsive, chaotic,

a man like him should have
no clear command.

The West has fallen for his lie.

A lie that Soviet regime
is growing soft, it is not.

Khrushchev wants confrontation
with America.

He's looking for one.

Do you have anything
you could share with us,

documents, perhaps?

Would you like to read
the new edition

of Military Thought?

I need assurances from you.

If it becomes necessary...

I must able to defect
with my family.

Absolutely. Whenever you want.

I will remain in place...

and keep you updated
on the Kremlin's thinking.

But tell your government...

they must use
my information wisely.

Not as a weapon...

but as a tool to bring peace.

Despite what Khrushchev claims,

America's nuclear arsenal
is still far superior to ours.

We do not yet have
first strike capacity.

You can annihilate us
but we cannot annihilate you.

But that won't worry
the Politburo.

Do you think in the end
that'll keep Khrushchev

from going too far?

You have to be up
in a few hours.

- I'm fine.
- No, he's right.

We can finish this up
tomorrow night.

And one last thing...

we need to talk about Greville.

Don't worry. You won't have
to deal with him anymore.

- No.
- It was Penkovsky's idea.

You're perfect,
you're a civilian,

so the KGB
won't be watching you.

You'll be in and out of Moscow
anyway to setup contracts.

You still won't know
any specifics,

you'll just be a courier.

Just a courier
for Russian sea...

My God, I can't believe
you're bloody serious.

We've gone over it
with Penkovsky.

We believe the risk
to you is minimal.

And we'll pay you.

I make my own money,
thank you very much.

I have a wife and a child.

Either of you have a family?

Oh, no.

Don't suppose you could tell me
about that,

not a lot you can tell me about,
is there? Helen, James.

I can tell you we'd both
put ourselves in harm's way

when necessary and this
is terribly necessary, Greville.

Then might I suggest you
find someone

who's suited for it.

Sorry. I really have done
all I can for you.

Greville, listen.

The four-minute warning,
it won't do you any good.

- What?
- The four-minute warning

before a Soviet nuclear missile
hits the UK.

No, I know what that...
what are you talking about?

That... that's what this has
all been about?

Nuclear war? Come on.

See, here's the problem for you.

Your house is a 12-minute drive
from your office,

ten minutes if you really push,
right?

And you're usually out
on a sales call anyway,

so you're not getting back
to Sheila in time.

And Andrew's school,
that's nine minutes

from your house,
15 from your office,

and no one's
getting to him either.

He'll get herded
into the school basement.

I looked up the building plans.

That's a sorry excuse
for a fallout shelter.

Same with your basement,
actually.

Only the government
has decent shelters.

What do you do?

Hmm?

You can spend those four minutes

trying to get Sheila
on the phone

but you won't be able
to get through.

Or you can think about
how you might have helped

stop this from happening...

but you didn't.

And then, that's it.

How dare you.

Truly, we'll be better off
if he doesn't do it.

He'll do it.

No, I got it.

All right.

- Hello.
- Welcome. Do come in.

- Oh! Hello.
- Hello.

Oh, vodka, lovely.

I was just saying to Greville
we didn't drink

nearly enough last night.

- Thank you. Uh, do come in.
- Thank you.

This is for Andrew.

Very kind, thank you.

This way.

Dad told me about Moscow.

What's it like in the rest
of Russia?

It is very beautiful.

Especially where I come from.

A lot of trees, a lot of sky.

You feel...

very alone but in a good way.

I'd like to see that.

But then of course
your government

isn't all that keen
on foreigners

just wandering around.

Do the Russians really hate us
that much?

I think they'd like our children
to be a little more polite,

Andrew.

Our politicians
hate your politicians.

And yours hate ours,
do not forget that.

But the people, your father
and I, we do business.

We spend time together,
I meet his family.

Maybe we're only two people...

but this is how things change.

Hmm.

- What if I get caught?
- You won't.

You don't know that.

They'd execute me, correct?

Not if they thought you're just
a courier that you took packages

but didn't know
what was in them.

They would hold you to trade
for one of theirs.

For how long?

- A couple of years.
- Oh, just a couple of years

rotting in some Russian Gulag.

They will not catch us.
The KGB will have no idea.

Listen, I'm better at this
than they are.

Fine. But I'm not.

Look, your work...

it is only deception.
Controlling your emotion.

I watched you do it in Moscow,
you did it tonight.

It's really not the same thing.

If we're caught, they would
definitely execute me.

Well, I'm very sorry
but that's your choice.

That is how sure I am
that you can do this.

I'm betting my life on it.

How can I explain
this to Sheila?

She cannot know the truth.

For her own safety, for yours.

I can't tell her any of it?

No.

Well, what have you told
your wife?

Because you know what she'd say,
"Don't do it."

I'm right, aren't I?

Sheila's no fool.
And in the past, I've...

given her reason
not to trust me dully.

Then you have to lie better.

There are good lies.

Sometimes a lie is gift...

an act of love.

I'm sorry it has to be you.

But, Greville...

it has to be you.

In Moscow, you must
at all times

follow the rules of the art.

In English, there's a word.

- Tradecraft.
- Yes.

You must follow tradecraft.

Everyone you meet,
assume they are KGB,

waiters, hotel staff,
my driver, everyone.

Even if they are
not actual KGB officers,

they still make reports
to KGB.

Ooh!

Every Russian is an eye
of the state.

Every room you're in,
assume it is bugged.

Even inside our embassy.

Especially inside your embassy.

Still, our embassy will be
a good fail-safe

in the event of any...

complication.

The KGB also uses lip readers.

You won't be able to tell
who they are.

So never discuss...

...anything sensitive
unless I do first.

How's your family?

Very well, thank you.
How's yours?

We will be seeing
each other often.

To throw off suspicion,

I will tell my colleagues
I recruited you as a source.

You'll keep
Colonel Penkovsky supplied

with material
on steel manufacturing,

industrial production
and so on.

Unclassified,
but hard to come by.

They'll believe
I would do that?

Of course.

You are a greedy capitalist.

You want to keep
the contracts coming.

And from now on, every moment
you're in Moscow,

you will be selling one thing.

The idea that you are
an ordinary businessman

and nothing more
than an ordinary businessman.

Well, gentlemen, I hope

this is the first of many.
Thank you all very, very much.

For good health
and for business.

I should get you to the airport.

Yes, yes, please.

Do you have any questions?

Gentlemen, 'till next time.
Thank you.

I want to be certain
of one thing.

I need to know
that if anything happens to me,

my wife and son
will be provided for.

You have my word...

and I speak for the crown.

Thank you, Alex. Bye.

Thank you.

- My, where did that come from?
- I missed you.

- Well, just this one time.
- Oh, every time, darling.

They're really gearing up
for war.

This is phenomenal.
Ironbark's the real thing.

Well, this just became
the biggest thing

going in the whole
Soviet Section.

Now, if I keep you on this...

am I gonna regret it?

No, sir.

Hell!

This is almost worth
all the bullshit

of dealing with the Brits.
How is it with those assholes?

They're good guys.
I just have to make them think

they're in charge.

Oh, this is such an honor.
I'm... I'm learning so much.

Despite growing tensions

between America and the Soviet,

until this morning,
there was essentially

free passage
between East and West Berlin.

But overnight, without warning,

the communist authorities
have barricaded off the city.

In response,
President Kennedy has vowed

to increase
America's military presence,

directly speaking
with General Clay

who is stationed in Berlin.

Grev, would you think it's safe
to keep going to Moscow?

Yes, certainly. It's fine.

Even with all this?

That's in Berlin, darling.
Nowhere near Moscow.

Yes, I know where Berlin is

and I know the Russians
and the Americans...

- Please do let me...
- ...are killing any...

...run my business.

Today in the Arctic,

the Soviet Union
had a successful test

of its Tsar Bomba
or King of Bombs.

With a yield of 50 megatons,

this is by far
the most powerful

nuclear weapon ever detonated.

I have the figures
you were asking.

Thank you very much.
Very helpful.

Today, every inhabitant

- of this planet...
- Just down there.

...every man,
woman and child...

Right here, ma'am?

...lives under a nuclear sword
of Damocles...

hanging by the slenderest
of thread...

capable of being cut
at any moment by accident

or miscalculation
or by madness.

The weapons of war
must be abolished

before they abolish us.

Do you have anything for me?

Tomorrow.

- Andrew?
- Yeah?

Where are the raincoats?

Oh, right.

Sorry.

It's fine.
The forecast is a sun.

No, it's not fine.
What if the forecast is wrong?

What if it rains?

Well, we'll want to stay
in the tent anyway.

We can read books.
It'll be lovely.

It's not the point.
The point is,

I told you to pack
the raincoats,

I made myself perfectly clear.
So why didn't you do it?

Greville, are you certain
this is how you want

- to start our holiday?
- Answer me!

I...

I...

forgot.

You forgot? You know,
that's fantastic.

I've got a son who's too dumb
to remember something...

- Greville, Greville! Greville!
- ...as simple as packing the...

Your father didn't mean that.

Shall we start again, hmm?

Is he all right?

He's asleep. It's a good sign.

Here.

- Will you be all right?
- Oh, fine.

I really needed this holiday
and it's a good idea.

Glad we came here.

It's not just tonight.

You've been so different lately.

Greville, what's going on?

Look, I didn't want to tell you
before because I...

I didn't want you
to be involved.

It's the business.
Yeah, we've...

hit a bit of a rough patch.

That makes sense, doesn't it?

Men and money?

My God, Colin went almost mad
last year

when his job
looked the tiniest bit shaky.

I wish it made sense
but it's not just that.

It's everything.

He's exercising all the time
and he's become so...

- energetic in bed.
- That all sounds so awful.

Poor you.

I'm so sorry. I shouldn't joke.

I know Greville had
an indiscretion once before but

it doesn't mean
he's having an affair now.

Then why is he so secretive
with me?

And defensive?

And it's always worse
whenever he comes home

from Moscow.

That's when it all started.
Moscow.

Oh.

Might be better
if you didn't have to travel

so much...

better for our family.

Darling, I told you,
it's very important.

- We need the money.
- The money?

- Money, yes.
- I thought you needed the club?

And you haven't caught
any expenses

and now we're going
to a smart restaurant.

Really, not quite certain,
how I'm supposed

to respond to that.

I mean, why can't we live
the good life? It's why I work.

Greville, I'm asking you to stop
going to Moscow.

I'm asking you as your wife.

Oh, I know what you're thinking.

- There is no one else, I swear.
- I forgave you once,

I never said I would again.

Hello, Nina.

Very nice to meet you.

She's never seen
a foreigner before.

My wife apologizes.

We cannot invite you for dinner.

To bring a foreigner
into one's home, it is not done.

It's all right. I'd understand.

You have a lovely family.

Thank you.

Alex...

when do you think
you'll be ready to defect?

It is best if we
do not talk about that.

Is something the matter?

Just a bit of trouble at home.

One day, you will be able
to tell Sheila

what you have done
and she'll be very proud of you.

That might be a bit too late.

Sometimes Vera,
she also struggles with my work.

Yes, but your wife married
a soldier,

mine married a salesman.

You know why
my government will not let you

travel outside Moscow?
They want to hide the suffering.

In the city life is all right,

but in the country
where I'm from...

I do not want this life
for Nina.

I want her to be free
from the State.

Someday, if our work succeeds,
when I feel the danger is over,

then I will defect.

I will bring my family
to Montana.

- Montana?
- Yeah. I've seen some pictures,

it is beautiful
like where I grew up.

Perhaps, I will become a cowboy.

You a cowboy?

- Oh, that I would like to see.
- Yes.

You must come and visit,
with your family, please.

I would like that very much.

I would like that too.

All right. I will.

Sir?

Thank you so much.

What do you have?

I'm seeing references
to a lot of new intel

coming from the Soviet Section.

Can you access any of it?

No. It's all way above
my clearance.

But I don't think it's coming
from intercepts.

It feels like they might have
a source.

I... I just don't see it
for them to actually do that

to try and sneak nukes
into our backyard,

- I mean, it would be...
- It'll be like an act of war.

Even Khrushchev
isn't that crazy.

All I can tell you
is that Ironbark

wouldn't be in the job
he or she is in

if he or she were an idiot.

I hope we take this seriously.

Stay on this, guys.

Work every Cuba source we got.

- Have a good flight.
- Thank you, Alex.

Ironbark gave us
camouflage profiles

for different kinds
of missile installations

so we could tell 'em apart.

As soon as we get some
U-2 photos

we'll know if Cuba's got nukes
or not.

And whether Russian missiles
can reach mainland US

for the first time.

Can they get a U-2 in the air?

This time of year there's just
too much cloud cover.

'Til October you're all I got.

Mm-hmm.

When I went back to my hotel
they searched my room.

But they didn't find anything?

Obviously he wouldn't be here
if they had.

I'm saying he's still
in the clear.

It could just have been
a routine check which he passed.

That's it Greville,
we're pulling you out.

But what about Penkovsky?

I didn't have a chance
to warn him.

We'll have to find another way
to communicate with him,

but you don't need to worry
about that.

No. You don't understand.

That's why he's in danger
as well.

If the KGB have been looking
at me,

they'll be looking at him too.

He's still set to come here
for the trade fair next month,

- doesn't he?
- Yes.

Then he's all right.
If he was under suspicion

they'd never let him
leave the country.

But you will still help him
to defect, won't you?

Whatever he likes, he's more
than earned his retirement

and Greville so have you.
Outstanding work.

Oh, my God.

So... so, that's it.

Cuba. What about Cuba?

Do try not to worry
about any of this anymore.

Put it all out of your head,
best you can.

Understood.

Well, thank you.

What the hell are you doing?
We're shutting down Wynne, now?

Please recall,
Wynne is a British national.

Any fallout from his capture

would cause
a major embarrassment

for the government.

We have to know
what Penkovsky knows about Cuba.

Which at the moment is nothing.

He'll be here next month,
we'll debrief him them.

That's all.

I'm, uh...

I'm closing all the accounts
in Moscow.

So I won't be going anymore.

All right.

- Sure you don't want me to help?
- I'm fine. Thank you.

Papa!

Nina.

This government, as promised,
has maintained...

the closest surveillance
of the Soviet military build-up

on the island of Cuba.

Within the past week

unmistakable evidence
has established the fact

that a series of offensive
missiles sites

is now in preparation
on that imprisoned island.

The purpose of these bases
can be none other

than to provide
a nuclear strike capability

against the Western Hemisphere.

It shall be the policy
of this nation

to regard any nuclear missile

launched from Cuba
against any nation

in the Western Hemisphere

as an attack

by the Soviet Union
on the United States.

Requiring a full
retaliatory response

upon the Soviet Union.

I call upon Chairman Khrushchev

to halt and eliminate
this clandestine...

The Soviets are standing firm,

but JFK is refusing
to back down.

It's out of our hands now.

Anything could happen.

- Telegram.
- Thank you.

It's time. It's got to be.

- Time for what?
- Time to get him out.

Greville, we can't get him out.

Of course you can.

Well then,
what did you mean when you said

you were gonna help him
to defect?

Family holiday
to East Germany,

crossover in Berlin,

to try and smuggle them
right out of Moscow,

- I wouldn't dream of it.
- But you're MI6

and CIA.

I can't get anywhere near
Penkovsky now,

so there's no way to coordinate
with him or plan it out.

We'd have to kidnap him
and his family off the street.

It'd be a disaster.

And if they
won't let them leave, then what?

It was my idea
to bring you into all this.

I never should have done that
to you. I'm sorry.

Well then, that's it?

We're just going to abandon him
and let the KGB murder him

whenever they get round to it?

This is a hard truth.

But if things were
the other way around,

- Penkovsky would abandon you.
- No. No, he would not.

He's a professional.
We use people.

He would do
just what I'm doing now.

Move on. Go home.

Go home to your family.

You're wrong.

What?

You're the experts on spying
and tradecraft and all of that,

but not Penkovsky.
You've met him once, I know him.

He would never leave me to die.

And I'm not leaving him.

I'm afraid
it's not your decision.

You said the problem was,
there's no way to coordinate

to let Penkovsky know about
the escape plan

but there is a way.

Me.

I can tell him...

if I go back to Moscow.

- You would do that?
- Yes.

No, he wouldn't.

Because he hasn't entirely
lost his mind.

James, be a bloody professional.

I'm volunteering to bring back
the best source

of Soviet intelligence
you got at a time

where Russia and America
are on the brink of nuclear war.

You talk about using people,
for God's sake use me.

If you go back to Moscow,
I'll go with you.

At no risk to herself.
She'll have diplomatic immunity.

- She thinks you're a fool.
- I will do everything

in my power to get both of you

- out of there.
- But I am telling you,

don't do it.

Oh, I didn't know you were...

I have just one last account
to close, then I'm finished.

Truly.

Of course. Yes.

And where are you
staying tonight?

A hotel I think would be best.

- Alex.
- Hello.

Hi. I'm Karen Tucker.
I'm the new press attache.

Our assets will take a boat
from Finland to Sosnovy Bor.

Port security there is light.

They'll pick the Penkovskys up,
ferry them back across.

I need you to take the van
and divert the KGB

when we leave the embassy, okay?

If we can just get
the Penkovskys

out of Moscow clean,

- we should be all right.
- Yup. Okay.

You're going to do fine.

Permanent representatives

of a large number

of Member governments
of the United Nations...

to address an urgent appeal
to you

in the present
critical situation.

In the interest of
international

peace and security...

all concerned should refrain
from any action

which may aggravate
the situation

and bring with it the risk
of war.

Now, we will explain what to do

if a warning sounds
when you are at home.

You must immediately
take cover.

Send your children
to the fallout room

then turn off the electricity
and the gas at the main.

Do you, Ambassador Zorin,
deny that the USSR has

placed and is placing medium

and intermediate-range missiles
and sites in Cuba?

Yes or no?

And I'm also
prepared to present

the evidence in this room.

Which you can all examine
at your leisure,

shows three successive
photographic enlargements

of another missile base
of the same type

in the area of San Cristobal.

These enlarged photographs
clearly show

six of these missiles
on trailers

and three erectors.

And that is only one example.

Bravo.

Bravo.

Bravo.

Bravo.

- Hmm!
- Mm-hmm.

Kennedy has sent the offer.

If the Soviets take out
their nukes,

JFK will declare publicly

- that the US will stand down.
- Think they'll go for that?

I really don't know.

Good luck.

Can I take you to the airport?

Oh, that would be perfect,
thank you.

Excuse me, what did they say?

They say,
"We're sorry for the delay."

Thank you.

Vera!

Mr. Wynne...

I'm sorry, I don't understand.

He said, come with us,
Mr. Wynne.

Why, what's going on?
I don't understand.

Mr. Wynne, please.

The Union
of Soviet Socialist Republic,

has declared you
persona non grata.

You are hereby ordered
to leave the country

within 24 hours.

Strip!

Strip!

One, two, three.

Thank you.

You were right.

You were right, too.

We had to try.

Mrs. Wynne, I'm James Dobie
with the Board of Trade,

- may we come in?
- Yes, please.

- Oh, my God.
- It's absurd, of course.

The Foreign Office is hard
at work sorting this out.

- But it's a delicate situation.
- Why?

Oleg Penkovsky has been arrested
as well, which is quite serious.

The Russians are claiming
Greville was caught up

in some sort of...

well, espionage.

The Foreign Office will be
in touch soon.

And while
this is all being resolved,

The Crown will provide
for you and your son.

- It's true, isn't it?
- What's true?

Greville was working
with Penkovsky like they say?

No, no. Of course not.

Can I call Greville,
I need to speak to him.

- I don't think that's...
- No, I have to... I have to...

I have to tell him that
I'm sorry.

I thought he was...

My God, I've been so stupid.

- Mommy?
- Andrew, go to your room.

- Who are...
- Andrew, go to your room!

I'm a friend of your father's.

He told me you have
quite the trophy collection.

Could you show me?

Andrew please, it's all right.

Don't tell me it's not true.

I know my husband.

I know he's been acting.

Don't tell me it's not true.

There are things
I can't say to you.

I can tell you that your husband
is an incredibly brave man.

And he needs you now.

He needs your help, Mrs. Wynne.

You see, once the Russians
realize Greville is innocent,

your government will be able
to get him home safe.

In time.

But if the Russians do decide...

that Greville actually
is some kind of spy...

I'm so sorry.

So when you talk to anybody...

that means your family...

your friends, Andrew,
and especially the press...

you have to tell them
that none of this

could possibly be true.

And you have to be
very convincing.

Can you do that?

Can you do that for Greville?

I can't imagine what Penkovsky
could've confessed to.

I... I'm sorry,
I don't know what this is.

We know everything,

we know that Penkovsky gave you
packages to take to the West.

- Well, yes, a few times.
- Then you admit it.

Admit what? I didn't know
that I was doing anything wrong?

You think stealing
Soviet intelligence

wasn't wrong?

If that is what
was happening, I didn't know it.

I never asked him
what was in the packages,

I didn't think
it was my business.

Who did you give these
packages to?

Well, I dropped them off

in various addresses
around London,

I never thought anything of it.

Mr. Wynne...

you were asking me to believe
that you are very, very stupid.

Oh, well, yes.

I suppose in your world I am,
but, look, I'm just a salesman.

I want my clients to like me,
so if that meant doing...

a favor for Penkovsky
every now and then,

I really didn't see the harm.

Hi.

Ah! That is so sweet of you.

Oh, but I wish I could
invite you in, I'm just...

I'm in the middle of 20 things.

Oh, no, no. That's fine.
I'm so glad to see you're well.

It's been ages,
we've all been worried.

Yes, well, do say hello for me.

Of course. I saw that ridiculous
piece in the Mail.

It's so absurd.

You don't think there could be
any truth to it, do you?

What they're saying
about Greville?

Don't be ridiculous.

How could Greville ever spy
on Soviets,

he couldn't even hide
his affair for me.

- Right.
- Thank you again for dropping by

- and this was so sweet of you.
- Oh.

We should have tea.

- I'll be in touch. Thank you.
- Yes!

Oh, all right. Bye.

For years the Americans
have had the nuclear missiles

in Turkey...

aimed right at us.

Oh, but how dare
we put missiles in Cuba...

is that fair?

- I don't know.
- Mm.

Do you realize your country
has left you here to die?

No, sir,
I don't believe that's true.

Why?

Why?

Why? For God sake.
What have I done?

I didn't do anything.

I didn't do it, you...
you fucking animals!

You will not touch. Sit down.

Sit down.

Oh, my God, darling.

I know I've been ill,
but I'm on the mend now...

and this will help.

This will help.

- Very much.
- What are they doing?

What the hell are you people
doing to him?

It's not like that.

They've been quite respectful
given the circumstance.

You mustn't fault them.

Really. You mustn't.

What you're going through...

it's all so unfair.

I'm sorry for what happened.

I feel wretched
for doubting you.

No, no. Couldn't be helped.

I'm really so glad you're here.
I missed you both...

very much.

The foreign office said,
that's a very good sign

I'm being allowed to visit you.

- Hmm.
- They said it might...

it might still take a while yet
to get you home

since the Russians backed down
in Cuba

they're being very stubborn
right now.

What happened in Cuba?

Well, they removed the missiles.
It's... It's all fine now.

No more about this.

And we're trying very hard.

It might take another...

it might take another year...

or two.

Tell me something about home.

Tell me what I have
to look forward to.

Well, the garden's cooperating
a bit.

Finally.

And we have tomatoes this year.

And Andrew, he...

he passed his Maths exam

somehow.

You'd be proud.

How are you?

I'm...

I'm all right.

Really.

If you can be strong enough
for this...

when you come home...

I hope we can start again.

And I was very foolish.

I'm sorry.

But I just want you to know that
every moment I've been here,

I have done nothing
but think about

how I'm going to get home
to you.

Really.

I will.

I will.

It's a matter of who.

We can't send someone
of real value.

Not for Wynne.

Wynne wasn't valuable?

We're all alive, aren't we?

He's not an officer,
is the point.

If we propose an officer
of theirs that sends a message

about how we perceive Wynne
the wrong message.

If you let Wynne die over there,
and he will die,

a lot sooner than you think.

No one will ever trust MI6
to protect them.

Ever again.

You feel guilty.

I know.

But you were doing your job
and Wynne

is our countryman, Emily.
I promise...

we'll get him home.

If you think Penkovsky
will protect you...

you think too highly of him.

He betrayed his country...

his family...

why not you?

It is every man for himself.
Yes?

Hi.

I have not seen a mirror
for a long time.

I like to think
I'm still quite worth...

for the time.

I wasn't sure
I'd ever see you again.

I'm so sorry
you're here Greville.

I hope you can forgive me
for this...

and for what I had to do.

What you mean,
what you had to do?

I held back...

for as long as I could.

I have to protect
my family, Greville.

To save them, I had to tell
the KGB the truth.

All of the truth.

I told them...

I gave you pictures that...

helped Americans
find missiles in Cuba.

And of course I told them...

you didn't know what was
in the packages I gave you.

Greville...

I thought I could make
the world a safer place...

but I failed.

All this...

betraying my country,

my people, all for nothing.

Alex...

of course I forgive you.

I have to look
after my family, too.

Easier now I know
there's not gonna be

a nuclear war...

because Khrushchev
withdrew his missiles...

...because of you.

Because of you.

You.

You did it, Alex. You did it.

You. You did it.

Because of you, Alex.

You did it.

Maybe we're only two people...

but this is how things change.

Daddy, where are you?

Mr. Wynne, you've just
spoken to your wife,

what were your first words
to her

and what were her first
words to you?

Frankly,
we're both rather speechless.

There were no words
for a moment.

Do you have any idea
of what you're going to do

in the future?

Oh, I want to get back
to my normal business activities

as soon as I possibly can.

Well, is that
to the same company?

With my own company.

Will you travel
in East Europe again?

Oh, now,
that is quite a question

which I can't answer today.
