All language subtitles for Mission Impossible s04e23 The Crane.eng

Good morning, Mr. Phelps.

This is a man
known only as Constantine.

He's the leader
of the People's Republican Army,

the guerrilla force which is fighting
the brutal, dictatorial military junta

that overthrew the Republic of Logosia
five years ago.

This junta is headed
by general of the army, Juri Kozani.

Second in command
is Colonel Alex Strabo,

chief of the elite
National Security Force.

Several days ago,
the struggle against the military junta

was dealt a heavy blow
with the capture of Constantine.

He is to be brought
into the capital of Logosia

within 24 hours for execution.

Your mission, Jim,
if you choose to accept it,

is to prevent the execution
of Constantine,

and pave the way
for his guerrilla forces

to smash the military junta and restore
Logosia's democratic government.

As always, should you or any
of your IM Force be caught or killed,

the secretary will disavow
any knowledge of your actions.

This tape will self-destruct
in five seconds.

Good luck, Jim.

Very good, Barney.

This, of course,
is harmless smoke, Paris.

The projectile you'll be firing
contains a gas

that incapacitates
almost immediately.

- For how long?
- Five to ten minutes.

Constantine will have to be out longer
than that, of course,

that's where this comes in.

Now, the armoured car
bringing Constantine into the capital

will enter the city in the early morning
and turn left on Lantern Street.

Now, this is the commercial
and industrial section of the city.

There are warehouses
all along Lantern Street.

The road crew will be working here.

Clay, you'll wait for Paris
and Barney here in this side street.

- Right, Jim.
- How are you going to keep

Strabo and Kozani from contacting
one another by radiophone?

Barney and I
have got that worked out.

Now, Strabo's security system
is as fast and efficient and mobile

as any police force in the world.

They'll have this whole area sealed off
within minutes.

There's not a chance of us getting
Constantine through their blockade,

- so we're gonna have to hide him.
- Where, Jim?

at Nova Prison.

You're convinced, general?

We should not go through
the formality of a trial?

Alex,

when a man is out to kill you,

there's only one way
to protect yourself:

Kill him first.

- Good morning, major.
- Sir.

Colonel Zante,
Fourth Army Intelligence.

I have a dispatch for General Kozani.

- I'll take it.
- I'm sorry. It's classified.

- My orders are to deliver it personally.
- You'll have to wait. The general is...

It's also marked "urgent. "
I must see him immediately.

One moment.

I'd better leave, general.

- I'll telephone you as...
- General Kozani?

Colonel Zante,
Fourth Army Intelligence,

- urgent dispatch...
- If you'll wait outside, colonel,

I'll see you in a moment.

No, you'll see me right now, general.

Don't let the uniform fool you.
I'm not one of your butchers.

I wore it to get past the guards.

Now, get over there.
Next to him. Go on.

- Who are you?
- I am a friend of Constantine's,

or I was until you made a deal
with him.

Deal?

What deal?

Constantine is going to be executed.

Oh, yes, that's what you'd like
the country to believe,

but I know it's a lie.

You're not bringing Constantine
into the capital to execute him.

You've made a bargain with him
and he's joining the junta.

Now, buying off Constantine
won't work.

You may have corrupted him
but you can't corrupt all of us.

- What are you going to do?
- I'm gonna kill you.

Oh, don't tell me I won't get out
of here alive. I know that.

But the death of you two
will be very well worth it.

- Good work, sergeant.
- Major, get him out of here

- and have him shot.
- Yes, sir.

- Sergeant, give me a hand.
- Now, wait a minute.

Take him to the detention room.
We may want to talk to him later.

Yes, sir.

9 Charlie 2 at 605.

9 Charlie 2 at 605.

Ready.

Stop.

Ambush.

Back up.

261 to all stations.
261 to all stations.

Ambush at Palace
and Lantern Street. Repeat.

Ambush at Pal...

Taking Constantine.

Now.

What could've given the man
the idea

that you and I made a deal
with Constantine?

Oh, I've heard rumours of dissension
among the insurgents.

Maybe it's become serious enough
for Constantine

to consider making an alliance
with us.

Yes?

For you.

Colonel Strabo.

When?

Order a full alert.

And seal off the area.
I'm on my way there now.

The armoured truck
has been ambushed.

They've taken Constantine.

- Major?
- Yes, general?

That man, Zante, or whatever
he called himself, I wanna talk to him.

Okay, Barney.

They can't have gotten far.
Search these buildings.

Report to the lieutenant.

- Every street in this area blockaded?
- Yes, sir.

Well, have the men start searching.
Buildings, houses, everything.

- Malka, what happened?
- They must have taken the other fork.

Back this way.

Answer me.

What gave you the idea
that Colonel Strabo and I

had come to some sort of agreement
with Constantine?

Where do you get such information?

Answer me.

Well,
I have some information for you.

Constantine has escaped.

His men ambushed
the armoured truck

taking him to Nova Prison
and rescued him.

Why would he want to escape,

if he'd come to a deal
with Colonel Strabo and me?

He wouldn't.

Then you admit
that there couldn't be...

I admit nothing.

I'm afraid you're wasting your time,
general. I have nothing more to say.

Take him back
to the detention room.

Did it occur to you
that Zante was relieved

but not surprised to hear
that Constantine had escaped?

Consider for a moment that it was
Zante's men, not Constantine's,

who ambushed the truck
and rescued him.

You mean they captured Constantine
to prevent him from joining the junta?

But you and Strabo
had made no deal with him, sir.

Zante obviously thinks we had.

If he didn't, why would he jeopardise
his own life

to try to assassinate Colonel Strabo
and myself?

- Get Strabo for me.
- Yes, sir.

Mobile operator.

Mobile Unit 4.

General Kozani
calling Colonel Strabo.

One moment, sir. I'll try to find him.

My orders are to check all persons
leaving the area, sir.

And to inspect all vehicles.

Yes, yes, I understand.
But be quick about it.

I'm sorry, sir, Colonel Strabo
is out inspecting the roadblocks.

He should be back at any moment.

Colonel Strabo isn't available, sir.

Would you like to speak
to the lieutenant?

I wanna talk to Strabo.

Wait. Let's get a report on the situation
from the lieutenant.

Yes, sir.
We'll speak to Lieutenant Likurous.

One moment, sir. I'll get him for you.

You may proceed, sir.

What the devil is going on there?

Kozani's calling Strabo.
I've been stalling him.

Major, Colonel Strabo just returned.
Here he is.

The colonel just returned, sir.

- Alex?
- Yes, general.

- What's the situation?
- I'm not sure, general.

I have a five-block area sealed off.
Every building is being searched.

I think I can guarantee
that Constantine will be recaptured.

You think you can guarantee it.

Well, I was sure I could, until...

Until I received a call from Constantine
himself a moment ago.

He called you?

He wants to discuss
surrender terms.

He said he would meet us,
just the two of us,

in the basement of a house
at Number 7 Parthenon Street.

What do you advise we do, Alex?

I think we should agree
to the meeting, general.

But if you have the area sealed off...

General, this is an industrial district.

It is honeycombed with sewers,
utility tunnels,

passageways between buildings.

I can't be sure that Constantine
won't find a way through my blockade.

Well, apparently,

Constantine isn't as optimistic
about his chances as you are, Alex.

Otherwise, he wouldn't want
to discuss surrender terms.

Nevertheless,
I don't think we have a choice.

All right. I'll be there.

Number 7 Parthenon Street
in 15 minutes.

General, I don't like this.
It's too dangerous.

And if I may say so, sir,

I'm surprised that Colonel Strabo
would recommend such a meeting.

So am I.

Isn't like him.

Alex and Constantine?

I can't believe it.

It was only luck
that I saw the tripwire.

That blast was intended
to kill you, general.

I want to have another talk
with Zante.

This leaves us only three streets

in the southwest corner
of this area to search.

Well, have them get on with it.

- Colonel.
- Yes?

It's Constantine. He's on the phone.

- Hello.
- This is Constantine, Strabo.

Listen carefully.

I'm not going to give you time
to have this call traced.

- I'm listening.
- You have the area sealed off.

I can't get out. I know that.

I'll consider giving myself up

- on one condition.
- What is it?

That you guarantee me
that I can leave the country.

Go into exile.

Listen, colonel,

my execution will not stop
this civil war.

If anything, it will prolong it.
Men fight for martyrs, not for cowards.

- Cowards?
- I'm tired, colonel.

Tired of fighting, tired of being hunted,
afraid of dying.

All I want now is to be at peace.

How am I supposed to believe that?

You'll have to take my word for it
just as I'll have to trust yours.

I am going to hang up
in ten seconds, colonel.

Answer, yes or no.

All right, Constantine.
It can be arranged.

Where shall I meet you?

In Zeno Square in 20 minutes.

- Very well.
- And, colonel...

- Yes?
- Have the square cleared

and come alone.

- Did you hear me?
- Yes. Yes, I heard you.

- Lieutenant?
- Yes, sir?

I want a dozen plainclothes men
in Zeno Square.

In ten minutes.

Take the handcuffs off.

Leave us.

Yes, sir.

Sit down.

Where is Constantine?

Where is he?

It was your men
who ambushed the armoured truck.

Zante,
you were right about one thing:

Constantine has made a deal.

But you were wrong about another.

The agreement wasn't with me.

Are you asking me to believe

that Strabo's
trying to double-cross you?

Come on, general,
anybody can print a leaflet.

We can see every move.

First, you show me a leaflet
to make me believe

that your old friend, Colonel Strabo,

has made a deal with Constantine
to overthrow you.

Next, you'll tell me what a terrible
mistake it'd be for Constantine

to work with a man so treacherous
as Strabo.

The only way to prevent that
is to make a deal with you.

- That's true.
- Yes, and then you get me to tell you

where Constantine is
so that you can talk to him.

Only instead of talking to him,

you and Colonel Strabo take him
from my men,

make your alliance with him,
and I'm left with paper

to show me what a fool I was.

- Sorry, general, that won't work.
- Zante, I swear to you, this is no trick.

Now, listen to me.

Believe me, I'm tired of this war.

I have been for a long time.

It's stupid, it's... It's mindless.
It's bleeding the country white.

Compliments, general,
you're an excellent actor.

I'm not acting.

Will you let me take you to see
Constantine? Alone?

No, I didn't think you would.
Why don't we get the guard

- to take me back to my cell?
- Wait.

I'll go with you.

- Alone?
- Alone.

There's one more condition.

What is it?

The terms of your proposed agreement
with Constantine have to be in writing.

They include the elimination
of Strabo,

the formation of a coalition government
and amnesty for all guerrillas.

Very well.

I'm from Constantine, colonel.
You were told to come alone.

I am alone.

My eyesight
is as good as yours, colonel.

You have men surrounding
the square.

Have your driver tell them
to stay where they are.

- And then?
- Just do as you're told.

For your information,

I have a man on the balcony
behind you.

He has a rifle.

One gesture from me
and he will shoot you where you stand.

If you make that gesture, colonel,
you're a dead man too.

And don't make the mistake of thinking
that this is a bluff.

Stop behind that car.

Down there.

Those are Strabo's men.

Just have them clear the area.

At ease.

- You in command here?
- Yes, sir.

- I want this area cleared.
- Yes, sir.

Clear the area.

What?

- What have you done to me?
- Stay right where you are, Strabo.

You'll find out soon enough.

You were kind enough to warn me
about your man

with the rifle in Zeno Square.

I return the favour.

Look behind you.

- What are you trying...?
- Turn around.

This is a two-way mirror, Strabo.

My man will be able to see

and hear everything
that happens in this room.

And he'll have his shotgun pointed
at your head the whole time.

- What is going to happen?
- In a moment, General Kozani

- is coming through that door.
- Kozani.

And you are going to stay
where you are without moving

or making a sound until Kozani
has finished what he has to say.

Remember this very clearly, Strabo.

If you move or you try to speak,
my man will kill you.

I don't understand.

Didn't Strabo's men
search this building?

- Thoroughly.
- And they couldn't find Constantine,

even though he was right
under their noses?

General, we've been hiding
right under your noses for years.

- Who are you?
- A friend.

I'll explain everything to you.

Statement?

I know you made a deal with
Colonel Strabo but that was a mistake.

Your man, Zante, agrees.

You don't know Strabo as I do.

He's a treacherous man.

He'll betray you
just as he's tried to betray me.

Well, I'll leave you two
to work out the details.

Well, my friend,
what's your answer?

Believe me, our country will never
be united until Strabo is eliminated.

Well, what is it? What's wrong?

If there's something more you want,
let's discuss it.

Constantine, what is it?

What is going on here?

Are you gonna reply
to my offer or not?

Yes, general.

I'm going to reply to it.

Alex?

That's correct, general.

We've been very cleverly tricked.

Alex.

But now we know
where we stand, don't we?

You and I.

What was that
you said this morning, general?

"When a man tries to kill you,
there's just one way to protect yourself:

Kill him first. "

I believe I'm quoting you
correctly, general.

Alex, no.

No, please.

Please listen. Alex, you don't...

Kozani's dead.

My men and I can handle Strabo.

Yes, I'm sure you can.
