The plot of this series is purely fictional

Any resemblance to real persons or events is purely coincidental

Is that blood?

Drive.

Antique Communist cylinder, four seconds,

old people's chain lock, another ten.

Iron door.

Piece of cake, Liron,

but if you prefer an explosion, the best thing is plasticine.

One small strip will suffice. how much noise does a small strip make?

-That depends. -Depends on what, dude?

Acoustics, windows.

Then maybe from the roof is best, if we weaken it before.

A building like this, the roof will fall in.

Liron?

The Mossad enters an apartment long term,

first thing they do is install an inner bolt,

a two-sided iron panel on the walls. We'd need a ton of plasticine.

Inside there are security cameras that transmit to Israel.

And there's a distress button with independent power. It won't work here. We have to catch him outside.

The trip is over.

That one's a real cutie.

You still trippin' over the wipes?

Not everyone's a tough desk officer like you, Gilad.

Amy, sweetheart, it's all a sham, this is what the course does.

You remember when he supposedly ran over the beggar?

No, you didn't see him. He was as white as a sheet.

He can be the color of wallpaper for all I care.

You see, Gilad, I agree with you, Yona is playing with us.

The whole situation is bogus, the man won't tell us a thing...

Do you have doubts as to how things are run around here, Mr. Miller? As our operational commander,

you should give us... basic information.

If you pass this course,

most of your work will consist of partial information,

for your own good.

And for the good of the operation at hand.

Either you can deal with that or you can't.

The same goes for you, Amy.

No, I... I just...

I didn't understand what I saw.

Get over here and sit down.

I want to be totally frank with you about what happened yesterday.

While Gilad and Tobi were on the lookout and Amy waited in the car,

I infiltrated the target's address.

Upon entering the apartment I came upon...

two bodies.

Mr. and Mrs. X?

Doris and Aaron, yes.

Two colleagues, from the office.

I thought you told us to stop them.

To protect them, Mr. Algawy, they were on assignment.

After identifying them, I found myself in...

standing over...

No offense, but... we've been in this course for quite a while

and if there's anything I learned, it's that not everything you say is...

the most accurate.

So...

Okay.

Mr. Miller, everyone,

you're not in a course anymore,

from now on the assignment is real.

You can go on not believing me,

just take into account that any mistakes from now on

could endanger your lives.

Okay. What's the assignment?

Nikolai Kirikesh, an accountant.

We know he has several clients who are legit,

but we also know that he's a global money launderer,

with an emphasis on drug trafficking.

He's the target.

Nikolai met with Doris and Aaron just a few hours ago

and he's our primary suspect.

His office is on 45 Luznovka Street, above the refugee assistance center.

Your objective is to rig the office and make personal contact with the target

-for additional intel gathering. -What do you mean by personal contact?

You know exactly what I mean. I want you at the assistance center.

-You have a medical background, right? -Paramedic for the 669th, will that do?

Create a permanent observation point on the building and access roads.

-You got that? -Okay.

-What about me? -I have a very special assignment for you.

You pay attention to the details.

This list is crucial for the entire operation, okay?

Go on, get out of here.

I earned your lack of trust in me.

But remember the story about the boy who cried wolf.

Ultimately, the real wolf showed up.

Let me get this straight,

yesterday I gave you unprecedented authorization

to put the trainees on operational assignment

and now I have two dead employees in an apartment in Kiev?

That has nothing to do with Yona and the trainees' operations in the field.

-That's your professional opinion. -When Yona got there it was all over.

Even if we hadn't activated them we would still have bodies,

-but we wouldn't know about them. -So let's sum up,

Yona's independent investigation came to nothing.

At your recommendation we assigned him an unauthorized

and unskilled backup team, we don't know what happened there,

but your professional opinion is that the operation

has nothing to do with the results. Am I right so far?

I'm appointing you clean up officer.

Activate the Sarcophagus procedure. Make sure Yona executes it himself.

-The Sarcophagus procedure? -Do you need the procedure file?

Yona has known them for years. Asking him to apply the Sarcophagus...

He's the only one in the field with operational experience.

-You want one of the trainees to do it? -Why not just get rid of the bodies?

Because bodies tend to surface in an embarrassing and unexpected way

and I'm done taking chances here.

So Mr. Yona Harari will execute my orders to a T

and then he'll pack up the rhythmic class he's running over there

and come back to Israel stat. Is that clear?

I'm here.

For the record, I think this is unnecessary

because there are 1,000 other ways to do this

and if this is to punish me, then use your discretion, Avi,

use your discretion.

I see.

There he is.

-Well? -Wow, that's...

not your standard style, but...

What?

-How do you feel with all the... -How do you think I feel?

Amy, this isn't personal, it's the job. It's a cover, that's all.

Remind me what your cover story is?

A med student volunteering for an aid organization?

For some reason the depth of your cleavage isn't relevant, right?

Amy, it's not like you're committing a deadly sin...

And if you feel uncomfortable, you can throw on a jacket,

it's all good.

When they came to me I was head of information security at Microsoft.

Had I known this is what they're looking for...

-Amy, you don't have to sleep with him. -Oh.

You just have to...

What?

You know...

Oh! That's lovely.

-It is? -Yes.

No, don't button it up. Leave it open.

Just like this.

There. Nice.

Amy, what we're doing here is a matter of preserving human life.

Oh, thank you, Rabbi.

Okay...

I'd add a bit of makeup.

And do something with your hair.

Okay.

Right hand window, second floor.

Yes, I saw.

-Leave the engine running. -Are you going this solo?

-Be available. -Liron...

Be careful.

With God's help we shall prevail.

The 9 mm will help too.

So just tell me about yourself.

-Well, I studied medicine in Kiev. -At the International University?

Yeah.

Yeah, actually, to be honest, my grades weren't good enough

to study in Germany, so...

Kiev International is a great university, I know some of the teachers there.

Prof. Dobrianska.

-Hematology. -Yes.

Yeah, but I get a chance to meet her only in my third year.

So why do you want to join our organization?

Well, I'm living here for six months now

and I watch the news like everybody else.

Yeah.

As a humanist and as a German I feel I can't stand aside.

Look, we don't have enough people with medical background like you.

For the Ukrainians the refugees are the ones that escaped Crimea

after the Russians took over.

Tell me, when can I start?

-Yeah? -Hi.

I wasn't sure I was at the right place.

I'm not sure either.

What does it say on the door?

It says "Loren Lotus."

Soon.

If you are Dorothy Kolomoycev,

we can start our scheduled meeting at 10:15 a.m.

So, where does your aunt live?

In the suburbs, by Yuzhny port.

She has a lot of money. She lives in Yuzhny?

Yes, she was born there,

never had a family, never spent any money, she didn't even know how much money she really has.

She asked me to go over the papers for her.

-Nice of her. -Yes.

She says she wants to leave everything in order.

-We're her only family. -And how did you get to me?

It's funny.

I didn't know who to contact

and I was sitting in this cafe at the end of Shevchenko,

a French name, I think.

-Belleville. -Exactly.

I asked them to check who's doing their books, and here I am.

What a charming coincidence.

Sorry for a moment.

This clock...

a work of art

at the end of the 18th century.

I have to wind it up twice a day,

or there will be problems.

Yeah.

This clock has a very, very delicate mechanism.

Yes, it's very beautiful.

In any case, if I took the money back to the UK,

I would have to pay the inheritance tax both here and there, so...

I thought I should check my options.

What a classy hood, huh, Kotel? I swear, every house is a hotel.

I wonder what our candidate is doing up there.

I bet he's banging some ho, the son of a bitch,

and at the government's expense. Believe me, they're all corrupt.

What's eating you, dude?

-Nothing. -Don't lie to me as if I don't know you.

Something's troubling you, I can tell.

Tell me, Kotel, it will do you good.

I swear, it pains me to see you this way.

You keep it all bottled up inside, it'll give you tumors, God forbid.

Come on, talk to me.

He's too sensitive.

Huh?

Liron.

Sure he's sensitive, the man took out his father.

That shouldn't get in the way of work.

What Liron is doing here is not work, it's justice.

-There's no such thing. -No?

Then you tell me what this is called?

-A progression of events. -A progression...

Speaking of the devil. Liron needs me by the door.

Careful with the click.

I always am.

Mitzi, he has the advantage indoors, he can hide in the kitchen...

Take your hand off me!

I swear, you're starting to worry me.

-Take it easy. -Watch yourself.

I got this.

What did you say was the name of your aunt?

- Oxana. Oxana Kolomoycev. - So...

How the nice aunt of yours made her money?

The family had a textile factory, she managed it until it was sold.

What bank does she use?

Excuse me?

You went through her papers. What bank does she use?

I think...

I think it was...

HSBC. Yes.

Are you sure?

HSBC...

closed down in Ukraine in 2010.

Maybe it was, she gave me some old papers, so...

How do you know the up to date amount

and rate of the interest that you gave me before?

I...

I think...

I think it...

Excuse me, Mr. Kirikesh,

can you give me a glass of water?

Of course.

Of course.

Thank you.

-Are you okay? -I'm not feeling so well.

Just a moment.

-Did you see him? -No, but his car's still here.

The son of a bitch disappeared.

Wait, wait.

Let him get in, the car won't start.

Only me.

Be ready to roll.

Liron... be careful, through the window.

-Go. -Go? He's on to us for sure.

No way, these guys are paranoid, he's on operational assignment.

Operational assignment? Kotel, you should have seen the dude.

He could easily get a job in the meat market.

-He stripped the faces off two people... -Menny!

Motherfucker. What a lizard, huh?

So you take this twice a day. No food before.

You should feel better in a day or two. If not, you can call me.

-Thank you very much. -Feel well.

Sorry... sorry, there's a line.

I know, I know, I'm working here, ask Nikolai.

So, we have an emergency here, the girl almost passed out in my office.

Yeah, I will see her. Thank you.

Take a deep breath, please.

-Amy, what the fuck?! -He has Grindr.

-He has what? -Grindr, the app.

-Haven't you heard of it? -I have, I'm surprised you have too.

Cough, please.

Sorry, he's from your group.

-Fuck! -It's not personal, it's a job.

So, how is the patient?

Uh...

Fine, fine. We're almost done.

A mild anxiety attack, that's all.

Thank you, Doctor.

Not yet, actually.

A student?

And a proud one.

So, tell me, when did you do your last exam?

It's important at our age, you know.

You're kidding. I'm 28.

But, if you need to practice, so...

Open your shirt up.

You see, I'm bionic.

I've got a pacemaker.

It's fine.

Take a deep breath, please.

Wow.

Wow.

Good lungs.

- Hello? -Hi, Mom, how's it going?

She slept like an angel. When are you coming home?

Late, I have to supervise this project.

It can't go on like this. You have to deal with reality.

-Reality is complex. - No, reality is very simple.

You're seeing the pediatrician tomorrow.

- She's your daughter, Avigail. -Mom, I'll talk to you later,

-I have an urgent call. Bye. - Avigail.

Sarcophagus procedure is complete.

How are you?

Like anyone else who poured acid on his friends' faces.

I'm so sorry. I left two chunks there, Avi...

two chunks of meat.

I want to talk about it when you get back, okay?

Promise me we'll talk.

There's...

There's... nothing to talk about. It's what we do.

Our identity is redundant, we don't need a procedure to erase it,

-it erases itself. -You're worrying me, you know?

I'm sorry, I didn't mean to.

It's over, it's behind you.

Now pack it up and give me your ETA.

-I can't. - You can't what?

To pack it up. I need a few days.

Yona, it's an order from the chief.

We're working on the accountant. We made contact.

What?! No one authorized you to do it.

Well, we did.

Do you know what position that puts me in?

I know, and I'm sorry.

I think it's good for us both that you steal some time for me.

Yona, this is a new Mossad chief. As it is he thinks I have no control.

He'll kick you out and kick me out in the process.

Avi, I want to know who killed Doris and Aaron,

and you know very well that that pencil pusher you call chief

will sweep the whole thing under the rug.

It's not like I have any choice, huh?

All I'm asking for is a few days.

Do you think that Putin would agree to let black men in keffiyehs

-walk freely in Moscow? -I'm serious, Gregory,

saying things like 'black men in keffiyehs' -or telling jokes about Muhammad... -Stop!

The joke was about Muhammad's camel.

This is Avigail, head of training.

I need a flight to Kiev right away, blue seat.

I'm putting music on.

-You don't know what music is. -Kotel, we all love Zohar Argov,

but you gotta know how to lighten up. I'll put on some feel-good music.

Black September.

Wael Zwaiter, Rome, 12 bullets outside his home.

Basil al-Kubaissi, Paris, nine bullets.

Hussein Abd al Chir, an explosive.

Whoever takes people out like that makes sure he's not taken out himself.

-Catching him outdoors won't work. -Why catch him?

We'll get a sniper rifle, Dragunovs cost peanuts here,

-effective range, 450. -No.

I want him to know who's killing him, I want to look him in the eye.

What can I say? I can't argue with romance.

Do my upper back.

Don't you prefer a massage?

As you wish, bro, radiation straight to the body.

We're going in.

-But Liron, you said... -Well, I changed my mind.

They won't expect it, they're going about their routine.

We know everything, the entrances, exits.

Sure thing. I'm just saying,

-an intelligence facility,,, -That works in our favor.

A facility like that has procedures,

you enter and deposit your weapon in a closet.

We'll unhook cameras from outside.

Inside there's a black box that records and doesn't transmit.

At the right moment we go in, subdue them, find the button...

-And it's done. -We wear masks at all times,

-I don't want any issues with anyone else. -And if someone gets in the way?

These are first graders in the Mossad, they're kids.

But we have to be careful with that motherfucker.

I kept saying "House." Didn't I, Kotel? Huh? Didn't I?

It's party time, we go in with VIP invitations.

Why did you stop?

Bro, you're already well done.

-Get back here. -Fine.

Liron, when?

I checked off the entire list.

Good for you.

Tell me, what is all this?

What do you do at your desk when you lack information?

That's right, you say nothing and wait for the field to procure results,

am I right?

I got a match.

Alexander Sidorov and Gregory Begach.

Drug offenses, both of them.

-This is helpful, isn't it? -Of course it is, sure.

Keep it up, the security of the State of Israel depends on you.

Keep it up.

Fuck.

-Yona... -Shh...

Don't bother me.

What are we doing here?

We're playing...

with poop.

Yona, you're embarrassing yourself, maybe...

Mr. Miller, shh... Daddy is talking now, shh.

In '92 we took out Hezbollah leader Abbas al-Musawi, the head of the snake.

What did we get?

83 dead in Buenos Aires and one Nasrallah in Lebanon.

In 2004 we blew up Sheikh Ahmed Yassin,

then Rantisi, then Shehade

and Ismail Abu Shanab.

The entire Hamas collapsed. It doesn't exist anymore, right?

What we're trying to do

is empty the sea with a sieve.

Kiddies, this job...

isn't a life.

Yona, you're wasted.

Remember the picture I showed you before?

Yes.

So...

My work,

the identity erasure protocol, Sarcophagus procedure.

So I ask you,

is this the world you want to live in?

If so, be my guests.

But if you have the slightest intelligence you will leave now,

because with me you will only end up in one place...

here.

It's your call.

What's going on? Liron...

They never came out like this before.

He must be sending them on an errand, the son of a bitch.

This is your chance, Liron.

Get up. Get up, you fucker, before I blow off your head.

-Shoot me now, no one will know a thing. -Fuck you.

Do you have any idea what you got yourself into?

In a few minutes this entire building will come down over your head.

Motherfucker.

Make a decision!
