My wife was in danger.

My other took my place
over there.

So your wife and your other
concocted this plan...

[ stammers ]
She did not concoct any plan.

Frankly, Management
is finding your wife

very difficult to trust.

Did you read this letter?

She was communicating

with your other,
conspiring for some time...

No, that's not what
they were doing.

It looks to me like you
don't know who this woman was.

I'm not sure how you're
going to take this.

Your wife has come out
of her coma.

It was the last intelligence
we received

before the Crossing closed.

H-How would you even
know these things?

Why would you be watching
my wife?

her husband rushed in,

emotional at the sight of her.

SY:
My husband keeps me up,

Every room in my embassy

has been transformed
into prison cells,

filled with stranded crossers,
drinking themselves away.

When can I tell my people
we are going home?

That's not up to me, Ambassador.

You're head of Diplomacy.

You must know something.

With respect to your concern,

it was your side
who closed the doors,

your side who stranded you here.

Our doors are still open.

We both know why
those doors are closed

Mr. Sy...

That was productive.

Their ambassador
isn't himself lately.

EMILY PRIME:
Who can blame him?

It must be infuriating,

knowing why the doors are closed

and just watching us
point fingers across the table

using the same poker-faced
diplomacy

that got us here
in the first place.

I don't make
Management's policy.

No, but you justify it.

Maybe if Strategy
were able to track down

these Indigo terrorists,
we could better assign blame.

How? With our hands
tied behind our backs...

All Management had to do
was say four simple words:

"We need your help."

Then maybe the doors
would still be open.

Maybe we could be chasing

these Indigo terrorists
with shared intelligence

fucking incompetence.

Hi, Miss Burton.

And who are you exactly?

I am authorized to speak
on behalf of Management.

Areyou Management?

No, no, no, I'm not.
[ chuckles ]

No, Management
doesn't come here.

I mean, they haven't
for quite some time.

It's sort of a security concern.

No, I represent their interests
from time to time

on matters
more sensitive than most.

So... [ groans ]

It has come
to our understanding

that you've been attempting
to visit, on multiple occasions,

the seized crosser known
as Howard Silk.

I knew he'd been caught.
I wanted the chance

-to interrogate him myself.
-Please, Emily. It would help us

a lot if you were honest
with us today.

See, Management is already aware
that you and Howard have been,

um, associating
during his time here.

Under the Konigsberg Act,
you could

be punished for the aiding
and abetting of a crosser.

However, in this case,
Management

is willing to, uh,
make a conditional exception.

Conditional?

Congratulations.

Effective this morning, Bob
Dwyer was relieved of his post

as acting director of Strategy,

and you've been named
as his replacement.

What the hell
is going on here?

Do you recognize that woman?

No.

Management would like
to confess

that they weren't entirely
forthright a few weeks ago

when you brought Indigo
to their attention.

That woman's name is Mira.

She's the leader
of this organization.

And Management have been
aware of her activities

for quite some time.

You're kidding me.

She's a terrorist.

In January of '96,

she was the mastermind
behind a bombing

of our neighbors' embassy,
which claimed two lives.

I'm sorry.

Why did they keep that
from us?

Shortly after the embassy
bombing, a meeting was had.

Now, in the interest of peace
between our worlds,

Management sanctioned
Mira's... removal.

It was assumed
she had been taken care of,

but after this recent attack,
we don't think that's the case.

Which brings us to today.

[ exhales ]

At 0100,
the doors briefly opened,

and an offer was delivered
from neighboring Management.

It said that if we were
to turn Mira over to them,

they would open up their doors,
reinstating full diplomacy.

Y-You want me to find her?

Yes.

These are the Schmidts,

former Diplomacy clerks
suspected

of donating their son
to that school

in Potsdam.

Management believes

that turning the Schmidts would
be crucial in locating Mira.

And after I locate her?

It is essential,
for the restoration of peace,

that you find this woman,
and, I am quoting:

"terminate her
without doubt or delay."

Why me?

Give yourself
some credit, Emily.

You connected Pope
to the Indigo School.

Let's just say Management knows

what team you're playing for.

Howard Silk was on my team.

-Yet, he was detained.
-Right.

Management has their own
interests with Howard Silk.

I want him released.

-Excuse me?
-He's just

an Interface man
from their world.

There is no reason
for him to be locked up.

Okay.

Now, now, when did this become
some kind of a negotiation?

I think it just did.

Well, maybe you don't realize

the terms of this conversation.

Should I be talking to you

or to them?

Which of you has
the authority right now?

[ chuckles ]

[ phone ringing ]

[ Yorke sighs ]

Yes?

Mm-hmm.

Okay.

Management will authorize
the release of Howard Silk

conditional to you
hunting down Mira.

I'll need your
verbal assent here.

Yes, thank you.

Wonderful.
No need to sign.

All this stays between us,
of course.

Ooh, and you're not to speak to
anyone about this conversation,

your mission, or any, uh,
hidden doubts, whatever.

You'll know your way out.

They'll be giving you a secure
line to make any reports.

What... what about you?

You won't be seeing me again.

So, I have some good news today.

Against my advice, Management
is offering the opportunity

to send you home.

Once the Crossing's
been reopened.

There would,
of course, be terms.

You murdered a citizen
of our world in cold blood.

-What terms?
-They suspect your wife

has valuable intelligence
about this Indigo group.

You could help the cause.

You know,
you people aren't the first

to ask me to spy on her.

Alexander Pope asked me
the same thing.

And my answer is
the same one I gave him.

Hmm.

of our old records.

It was recorded on your side.

MAN: Emily, if we were

it would make your marriage.

Nice to meet you.

Our son was lost to the flu.

I have a daughter.

She was lucky to survive.

She should count her blessings.

Our son died 21 years ago
to the month.

What does his death
have to do with Office business?

We've come across
some revealing intelligence.

As I'm sure you're both aware,
on rare occasions,

there are those who are able
to slip across the line

using false visas.

We have every reason to believe

that your son did exactly that,

and has been operating for years

on their side

under an illegal program
we know as Indigo.

You're not making any sense.

This institution
trained your son

and dozens like him

to imitate his other.

[ laughs ]
That is absurd.

Are you listening to this?

I'm offering you the opportunity

to be reunited with your son.

To make up for the years lost.

How dare you come in here...

with this false hope.

Please stop protecting
these people.
