Previously on
Covert Affairs...

Parker, will you marry me?

- Yes.
- Yeah?

I gotta tell you something.

I'm with the CIA.

- Who am I marrying, Auggie?
- Are you a detective?

FBI, Agent Rossabi.

You took care of it
for me, huh?

I want you to do high security
clearance on Simon Fischer.

Get intimate enough
with a man,

and he'll tell you everything.

I found some coded files
in Jai's vault.

I took his cell phone charger.

I'm having S & T wire it up,
G.P.S. tracker.

Then I'll return it to him
in Paris.

See you at the top?

Yeah, I'll be waiting
for you.

Wow.

You don't like to lose,
do you?

I didn't know
this was a competition.

Yes, you did.

Oh.

Race you back
to the hotel!

I told you it'd be more fun
if you let me win.

If that was
the consolation prize,

I'm okay with second place.

23 1/2 hours.

One of these times,
we'll make it a full day.

I apologize again
for cutting it so short.

No, I understand.

I work for a living.

What, uh, kind of business
do you have in Edinburgh?

I'm afraid it's too mundane
to utter out loud.

I still can't believe you flew
me all the way here

for a phone charger

that you haven't even
asked for yet.

I think it was worth it.

Thank you.

Next time, you're gonna have
to come up with a better ruse.

Next time, I will.

Agh!

You are actively cockblocking
a national security op.

Why can't we work together
on this?

Then we'll just have to find
a way to do it without you.

Can I ask
what that was about?

That was about you.

Or, more precisely,
the intel we got

from the charger you planted
on Simon's phone.

Nice work, by the way.

Thanks.

Ten hours ago, Simon contacted
Michael O'Leary,

a known cat burglar
here in D.C.

A cat burglar?

Yes, they really do exist.

This one goes by "Mike O."

What did Mike O. cat burgle?

His specialty is in tech.

And two days ago,

R.D.I. Industries reported
a breach.

As in Reston Tech Corridor,
R.D.I.?

As in big defense contracts
R.D.I.

State-of-the-art microchips used
in nuclear centrifuges,

missile guidance systems,
telecomm.

D.I.A., N.S.A., FBI--
they're all staking claims.

Could be a coincidence,
but if this thing is real,

every agency
in the alphabet soup

is gonna want the win.

What kind of security breach
did they report?

Don't know.
It's classified.

This thing's so big that
everyone inside the beltway

is stove-piping.

Can I reach out
to another agency?

No, you've done
your part, Annie.

Do we know who's handling this
for the FBI?

This your idea of a bribe?

Think of it
as a goodwill gesture.

Put us on a better footing.

Yeah? What are you positing?

Well, you're gonna tell me
what happened at R.D.I.

What makes you think I'm gonna
tell you anything?

Ah, for old times' sake.

Which old time
are you talking about, Walker?

How about the old time
an international terrorist

rolled off a plane from Istanbul
and landed at your feet?

Yeah, memory fades.

I'll tell you
what I do remember--

you posing as
a high-class call girl.

Or what about the time

you and that pain in my ass
from Mossad

got my informant killed
in a fiery explosion?

We don't play this game.

I thought you were above

this childish
inter-agency competition.

You're missing something.

I can help.

The Agency can provide
valuable intel.

Yeah, we have all the intel
we need.

And it may not be
a competition...

but we're winning.

If that were true,

you wouldn't have come here
to talk to me.

We have similar interests.

You want to catch the thief.

I need the details
of what was stolen and why.

You are proposing
that we work together?

It's a simple quid pro quo,

and I can give you the quid
right now.

All right,quid pro quo
it is, then.

Who said the Latin language
was dead?

- You did what?
- I gave O'Leary's name

to the FBI.

And you made this call
on your own?

Yes.

Well, I hope it was
the right one.

Did you ever consider
how giving up Mike O.

might lead back to Simon?

Simon's in Edinburgh.

If the FBI's
sniffing around,

he's savvy enough
to steer clear.

I think it's a mistake,
but okay.

Ooh, you're really
gonna wear that?

Yeah?

Oh, babe, babe.

I'm kidding.

You couldn't tell?

I've gotten used to making
jokes at my own expense.

It's nice to have someone else
around to help

with the heavy lifting.

So what do you want to do
for dinner tonight?

I'm probably
gonna have to work late.

What will you be working on?

Am I not supposed to ask?

You can ask.

And I can either
ignore the question...

or lie.

Oh.

Then I guess
I just won't ask.

Hey.

Listen.

Every couple goes through
something like this

after a read-in.

We'll figure it out.
I promise.

Ooh, that coffee smells good.

- Exactly. Thank you very much.
- Auggie.

Auggie.

Now, how am I supposed
to wow you...

with my skills of perception

when you announce yourself
so boldly?

Why didn't you tell me

you were coming back
to work today?

I called you a couple times,
but you weren't around.

- I've been busy.
- Mm-hmm.

How are things with Lena?

Fine.

Maybe a little truth serum
will get you talking.

Tonight, drinks at Allen's.
You, me, and Parker.

It'll give you a chance
to finally meet her.

I can't tonight.

Danielle only has
one more day in D.C.

She's moving to California.

How did I not know about that?
This is a huge deal.

I know. It's okay, though.
She has everything packed, and--

I know.
I meant for you.

Oh.

I'm fine.

You definitely need drinks.
Tomorrow?

Tomorrow it is.

Was Jai Wilcox ever
under your supervision?

Yes.

Was Arthur Campbell the person
who assigned him

to your division?

Yes.

Would you describe
Arthur Campbell's relationship

to Jai Wilcox
as amiable?

Not always.

Yes or no?

If you want
yes or no answers,

you have to ask me
less complicated questions.

Yes or no, Joan?

No.

Did Arthur Campbell
tell you that Jai--

If all we're going to do
is talk about my husband,

why don't you
just polygraph him?

Did Arthur Campbell
tell you Jai Wilcox

was after your job?

I can repeat the question.

Yes.

The answer is yes.

Auggie, it's great
to have you back.

I mean that.

But you do still fault me

for going to Eritrea
in the first place.

Prescient.

You are entitled
to your opinion.

I'm your boss.

I'm entitled
to more than that.

Given what
you've been through,

I'd like to ease you
back in.

Thought the commission
was getting antsy

about the Jai inquest.

Last week, I could get away
with feeding 'em a few crumbs,

but now it's gotta be
a full-course meal.

Understood.

I need a full report
on my desk first thing tomorrow.

You know, I wasn't sure
you'd make it back

before I left.

Don't respond to that.
I hate the way that sounded.

Why?

'Cause it made me sound
super needy, and...

I mean, I don't need you
to spend every minute with me

for the next two days.

Oh? Maybe I want to.

Now tell me what I can do.

Really?

I am all yours.

Well, I could use some food
for lunch.

- Pizza?
- Our usual?

I'll call right now.

Hello, I'd like to order
a pie for delivery.

Half anchovy, half Hawaiian.

Hey. How's Edinburgh?

I wouldn't know.

- What do you mean?
- Change of plans.

I'm not in Edinburgh.
I'm here in D.C.

As a matter of fact,

I'm just about to walk
into the Smithsonian.

Where are you?

You said he was in Edinburgh.

I did.
That's what he told me.

And I saw
the ticket confirmation.

Simon's changed plans.
Why?

He has to know
coming here is risky.

Maybe with all
the agencies in play,

Mike O. couldn't get out
of the country,

and so Simon's coming here

to get whatever
Mike O. stole.

Okay, there's
an opportunity here.

Find out if and how

Simon is gonna make
the exchange with Mike O.

But you have to make sure
he doesn't cross paths

with the FBI
or D.I.A. or whoever.

There is no home-court advantage
when working a cover.

In fact,
it's exactly the opposite.

You can manage this, Annie.

I have faith in you.

Thank you, Lena.

Could you give this
to Janine at Air and Space?

Thanks.

I am sorry
to keep you waiting so long.

Not at all.

It's the price I pay
for arriving unannounced.

What are you doing
in D.C.?

You left this
at the George V.

You remarked on how terrific
it made your hair smell.

It was you
who said that.

Was it? Hmm.
Maybe you're right.

How long are you
in town for?

Um, I'm open-ended.

And where are you staying?

I was hoping
to stay with you.

- At my place?
- Mm-hmm.

What?

Are you worried
that you left

your knickers on the floor
or something?

I don't wear knickers.

Even better.

Let's see the sights first.

Listen up.

I just received a 53-bravo text
from operative Walker.

She needs a vetted
personal apartment in two hours.

That's photos, accoutrements,
stocked refrigerator.

One lamp out of character,
and her cover is blown.

Clock's ticking, people.
Come on.

Are you sure you don't have
any business to attend to

while you're here?

Is it so hard to believe
that my first priority

was seeing you?

Your place--
is it near here?

Near enough.

Q Street's kind of jammed,

so I'm gonna take M.

You ever consider
taking the Metro?

I like to be in control.

Sorry.

I learned to drive
late in life,

so city traffic
still flusters me.

Sheds light on our accident
in Marrakech.

You ran into me.

Miss Walker, your mail.

Thank you, Taj.

So you're never short
on opinions.

Bring it on.
What do you think?

I love it.

But it doesn't entirely feel
like you.

Oh, you know what's me
and what isn't?

Nobody can afford
that many shoes

on a government salary.

I have to take this.

Yeah.

I'll open
a bottle of wine.

Okay.

I am so, so sorry.

Pizza's getting cold.

You are gonna have to enjoy it
without me.

Yeah, I kinda got the picture
when you left

without saying good-bye.

Bottle opener?
Where do you keep it?

Left drawer near the sink.

Are you with a guy?

Uh, can we talk
about this later?

I'm leaving tomorrow,
and you're with a guy?

You couldn't wait?

I promise I will be home
before you leave.

Well, there's no way
I'm gonna hold you to that.

Enjoy your night.

Good, you found
the bottle opener.

I did,
in a different drawer.

I usually drink champagne.

Who was that
on the phone?

Friend.

You seem
a little distressed.

I forgot to do something,

and they were giving me grief
about it.

Rightfully so.

Yeah, well...

we're all spinning plates.

One's bound to drop
from time to time.

I feel like
I'm dropping this one.

What do you mean?

Something's different today.

It...feels weird,
you being here.

Would you prefer I go?
I can easily find a hotel.

No, I-I want you
to stay here.

I just feel like
I've misrepresented myself.

When you're away from home,
it's easy to come across

as something more...

more than what
you really are.

I think I have
a pretty good idea

who you really are.

I don't just bring
any guy up here.

You're still up.

Did you eat?

I can whip us up
a little something.

I microwave
a mean enchilada.

It's late.
I'm fine.

Hey, just so you know,

today was not
a typical day.

It wasn't exactly
an atypical day either,

but, you know--ow.
Shoot, sorry.

I shouldn't have put that there.
No, no, it's okay.

It's just I kind of have
a system.

This is a suitcase.

Auggie, we need to talk.

Why don't I go
back outside,

and we can start this
over again?

I can't marry you, Auggie.

And you decided this,
what, today?

Just because
I'm a couple of hours late?

No.

No, I've...

been thinking it
for a while,

since Africa, and I--

I should've said
something earlier.

This is because
I'm CIA.

You don't trust me.

You don't think you know
who I am anymore.

I don't know you.

We don't know each other,
Auggie, not really.

- Come on.
- It's true.

I mean, what we have, it's--
is good.

Parker, what we have
is really, really good.

But I'm not sure
I know what it's based on.

What are you--
what are you saying?

Our emotions,
they were--

they were heightened
when we first met

because of our situation,
because of Billy,

and since then, I've felt
like I'm not--

I'm not tethered to anything.

I--and you and I
have just been floating

in some kind of bubble, and--

Well, yeah, that's what love's
supposed to feel like.

That's what it feels like.
We do love each other, right?

Yes.

Okay, that's
the important stuff.

Getting to know you, that's--
that's the fine print.

That's what we're doing now.

I'm not ready for this.

No, no,
do not leave tonight.

Not like this.

This is not what
engaged people do.

Well, what do they do?

They work it out.
They work it out.

They talk things through,

their differences,
like adults.

They work it out.

- Oh--
- Just stay tonight.

Not tonight, please.

Please.

Everything looks better
in the light of day.

Hey.

What are you doing?

What's going on?

Couldn't sleep?

Something you may not
have figured out about me yet

is that I'm a bit
of a neat freak.

Mmhmm,
I had my suspicions.

You have these two
beautiful Bespoke suits,

and you treat them like that?

Your tailor'd have a heart
attack--let me hang them up.

Come back to bed.
Come on.

I'll show you the hospital
corners I learned how to make

in boarding school.

Hey.

Good morning.

Good morning.

I can feel the sunlight
coming through the shade.

It's gonna be a nice day,
isn't it?

Yeah, looks that way.

Listen, um,

I'm gonna take the day off
of work.

And I thought
we could rent a car

and drive down
the eastern shore--

and by "we," of course,
I mean you.

I can't imagine the kind
of damage and collision waivers

they'd charge me.

Auggie...

Is that a cab?

Yeah.

Parker.

Parker.

Parker.

You should have this back.

Okay?

No.

I don't want it back.

No, no, no, listen.

Don't. Listen.

Wait a minute.
Wait a minute.

What happened last night was
just a first argument, okay?

Couples do that.
They get into arguments.

They--they--
they go a few rounds,

they hash things out,

and then they're stronger
for it.

They don't quit.

I can't.

Good-bye, Auggie.

Parker.

Parker, wait.

It's the constellation
Ursa Minor.

But the orientation's
slightly off.

Are you laughing at me?

No.

No.

Nobody's ever guessed
my tattoo correctly.

Astronomy is something
I got into as a kid.

You?

Actually, it was inspired
by the Keats poem "Bright Star".

"Would I were steadfast
as thou art."

That's the one.

So who was the bright star
in your life?

Hey, is there anywhere
around here

where you can get
some breakfast?

Yeah, sure.
Just around the corner.

Great.
I'm absolutely famished.

I told you the lumberjack
special was a lot of food.

Are there actually any
lumberjacks in this city?

I'm sorry.
I need to get this.

Do you mind?
Excuse me.

Hello?

Thank you.

Thank you.

Small town
inside the beltway.

I was about to give you
a call.

- You been following me?
- What are you talking about?

This is my regular
coffee spot.

Yesterday, green corolla.

No, that wasn't us.

Look, if I put a tail
on every untrustworthy spook,

there'd be no one left
at Hoover.

Anyway, I owe you some quo.

That intel you gave us
on Michael O'Leary--

that actually panned out.
He's our thief.

He was supposed to meet a buyer
in Edinburgh, Scotland,

but he gets to Dulles,
and he bugs out.

He thinks the T.S.A.'s
on to him.

- Did you pick him up?
- Not yet.

This is where it gets good.

The buyer's coming here.

Do you know
who the buyer is?

He's European.

Anyway, we got word that
O'Leary's planning to meet him

at the National Arboretum
at 1:00 today.

Okay. And you're gonna
take 'em both down?

Yeah. And it's not just us.

There's N.S.A., D.I.A.,
D.H.S.

They're all involved.
It's a veritable party.

And seeing as your information
helped us put it together,

I'm inviting you along.

Great.

What, don't you want to hear
what he's selling?

Now's not a great time.

Hello.

- Hey.
- Um...

Uh, Simon, this is,
uh, Vincent.

Vincent, this is my friend
from out of town, Simon.

Hey.

How do you two
know each other?

We work
in the same field.

At the Smithsonian?

Uh, something like that.

Fantastic.

Are you British?

Something like that.

Well, I am running late,

so I hope to see you later,
Walker.

Did I interrupt something?

Nope. Uh, I was catching up.

How was your phone call?

Uh, looks like I have to get
to a meeting at 1:00.

I knew you were in town
for business.

No, it's just come up.

In my line of work,
you need to be opportunistic.

Listen, do you mind if we head
back to your place?

I'd really like
to grab a shower.

- No, that's fine.
- Great.

If Simon shows up
to the meet

and gets rounded up,
we're done.

The people he's working with,

his network,
they'll run for cover.

We'll never catch back up
to them.

Yeah, I get that.

Do you?

You have to stop Simon.

I don't know how
to do that

without blowing my cover.

Seduce him.
Break a wrist accidentally.

Just get it done.

Hey.

I don't think
you should go.

Are you upset
about the meeting,

or is it something else?

Look. We spent 19 hours
in Marrakech

and 12 in Munich
and 23 in Paris--

23 1/2.

And today,
you showed up unannounced,

and then I feel like you're
evaluating me the whole time,

like I'm doing
something wrong,

and then the second
you open up,

snap.

Go back in your shell.

That's how
you really feel?

I'm trying to tell you
how I really feel.

How about you do the same?

And then we both know
where we stand.

We really can't talk
about this later?

Not if you walk
out the door.

I'm sorry, then.

Good-bye, Annie.

Hey,
you ready to do drinks?

Now!

Where are you?

Allen's Tavern.

It's lunchtime.

Well, I'd be happy
to fill you in

once you get down here
and have a beer.

Or three.

- Auggie, I--
- Whatever you're about to do,

don't say you're sorry.

I've had my fill
of apologies today.

Just tell me
you're on your way.

I-I can't right now.

Maybe later.

Call me when
your schedule frees up.

Auggie--

You ready, Walker?
It's almost showtime.

Can I talk to you
for a second?

All right, just handle that,
all right?

I wasn't entirely straight
with you before.

If you're trying to make me
nervous, Walker,

it's working.

The buyer's a CIA asset.

I couldn't tell you before

because I needed him
in the field,

which is why
I'm asking you now

to let him walk.

No, no, look,
I already told you.

It's not just us.

Do you see that guy
over there?

That's D.I.A.

That woman, Homeland.

We haven't had inter-agency
cooperation like this

in ten years.

If this guy gets arrested,

my whole operation
goes down.

Yeah, well,
you're gonna have to take that

way up the line,

because I couldn't let
your guy walk

even if I wanted to,
and I don't want to.

I've invested a lot
in this asset.

More than ever before.

If you catch him, it's--
it's all for nothing.

Oh, they're substrates,
by the way,

what O'Leary's peddling.

What?

When you steal substrates,

it's like stealing
printing plates for $100 bills.

You can make all the microchips
you want.

I got the details in a file
back at the office.

Remind me later.
Okay, it's 1:00, guys.

Subject is arriving.

That guy must be
the buyer.

Go, go, go, go.

Walker, where the hell
are you going?

Okay, close off
the east entrance.

The substrates.

What were they for?

Tell me!

I want a lawyer.

No.

What the hell
did you do, Walker?

What?

There is nothing in them.

But you probably
knew that, right?

Mike O. doesn't have
the goods.

The other guy is not your friend
from the diner.

You've been lying to me
this whole time.

- No, I swear that--
- You know what? Save it.

All right?

You never give me
a straight story.

- Vincent, I--
- Who do you think's gonna take

the fall for this, Walker?

You know what?

Just so that we're clear,
you burned a bridge today.

And I hope, for your sake,
it was worth it.

Can I get a beer, please?

Oh, I just shouted
in your ear, didn't I?

Oh, that's all right.

I am beyond the point
of caring.

I'm Debra, by the way.

Nice to meet you, Debra.

Hey.

Don't you see me here?

No. I don't see you there,

'cause in case
you haven't noticed,

I'm blind.

No disrespect.

I'd advise you to pay more
attention to your surroundings.

You might end up
saying something

to the wrong guy.

I'd give you
the same advice.

Look, I'm trying
to help you out.

I don't need your help.

- I don't care what you need.
- Calm down, Clark.

Let's just get a table.
No.

This guy doesn't get a pass
just 'cause he's handicapped.

I'd advise you
to stand down, Clark.

I'm equal opportunity.

Treat you like
any other jerk-off.

I'm not gonna say it again.

Oh!

Get off me!

And the briefcases
were empty.

So how do we play it?

Play it?

Annie, this mission is over.

You're blown.

I ran the plates of the car
that was tailing you.

What came up?

Wasn't any of the agencies
involved in this circus.

So that leaves Simon.

But why would he do
something like that?

Maybe to see how you'd react.
Maybe for sport.

I don't know.

What I do know
is that he was playing you.

He had your number
all along.

So what next, then?

I just do data mining
from here on out?

Joan will have
to answer that.

Excuse me?

I'm sending you back
to the D.P.D.

But this mission
isn't dead yet.

There's plenty more
left to be done.

Oh, I just--

I won't be
the one doing it.

In my division,

operatives are given
a lot of autonomy.

And that can lead
to big, exciting wins.

Sometimes it doesn't work out,
and when it doesn't,

I have to call it.

Yeah. I get it.

You know this thing with Simon
isn't finished.

Doesn't matter.
It's too dangerous.

Simon is a master spy.

It was a pleasure
working with you, Annie.

I know the D.P.D. will be happy
to have you back.

Auggie, I'm sorry
we missed each other earlier.

I'm sure you left the bar
hours ago, but I--

I could really use someone
to talk to right now,

so if you're up for it,

call me.

I thought you already left.

My flight got delayed
three hours.

Lucky me.

Lucky us.

You know, I've been trying
to convince myself

not to worry about you.

That's impossible.

Well, it'll be
a lot easier

without me having to peek
in your window every night

to see whether your light's on
or not.

I thought by now
you would've installed

some kind of secret nanny Cam
to see if I was tucked in.

Hey, I thought about it.
Believe me.

You're not the only natural-born
spy in this family.

You all packed?

Mostly.

Except there's still
so much...

ice cream left.

Oh, but I packed up
all the spoons.

It's okay. We can use this.
This'll do.

Mm, I like it better
this way.

Me too.

We don't have to say it,
do we?

I don't want this
to be the end.

Good.

Then let's just keep eating.

That's a coincidence--

us both craving a burger
at this hour.

I worked up quite an appetite
this evening

trying to manufacture
another ruse

to get you
to come see me again.

Oh, yeah?
What'd you come up with?

Nothing.

At least, nothing I could say
with a straight face.

I'm going to resort
to something

I don't traffic in
too often--

the truth.

I like you.

Quite a bit more than
you might believe, actually.

I'm tired of playing games.

I'm hoping you feel
the same way.
