Original subtitles

- [Man] Previously on Condor.

- Joe, I need you to listen to me very carefully.

- You're not gonna take me to Vasili?

- I'm taking you to the end of Track 11.

You can take yourself.

80 Bowery Street, Chevy Chase, Maryland.

- Thank you for seeing me, Senator Thrush.

I saw it.

My husband, who I thought I knew,

ordering the death of one of our friends.

- Reuel has been operating out of bounds for far too long.

I don't want to pressure you into saying

something you're not ready to say.

- I'm ready.

- You were SWATted.

- Like a fly. - Get on the ground!

- This feels personal. - Hit the ground!

- You would even say childish.

- I think Joe Turner's on his way to meet Vasili Sirin.

- I'm already on him.

- I can't do this anymore.

I feel like they know.

- You are safe.

Not even my own people know who you are.

- It's not your people that I'm worried about.

- [Vasili] Make a sound and I'll slit your throat.

(gun clicking)

- [Joe] Buddy!

- She found you!

(flashbang booming) (Joe groaning)

(gunshots banging)

- I need you to tell me who the mole is.

I think an innocent man is gonna take the fall for him.

But if you tell me who it is, then I can clear his name.

- I would like to tell you, but I don't know.

- Volk is hunting you because he told you

the name of his asset.

- No, he knows he said too much,

but he was so drunk he doesn't remember

exactly what it is he said to me.

- I am only fucking here because you used me.

- I'm sorry, Joe.

We should go.

The hunters will be here soon.

Come on.

(drone whirring)

(Joe panting)

(leaves crunching)

(Vasili panting)

(branches crunching) (Joe groaning)

(Joe panting) (dogs barking)

- Come.

(suspenseful music)

(dogs whining) (dogs barking)

- No, no, no, no. (branches crunching)

Shit.

(Joe groans)

(Joe panting)

(Vasili groaning)

Jesus Christ.

You used me as bait?

- Not as bait, as a lure.

(gun clicking)

- [Joe] There's really a difference?

- A lure you hope to get back.

- How many people have to die so that you can live?

- You want to surrender?

(dogs barking)

They'll be here any minute.

- We'll go to the water.

(eerie music) (crow cawing)

How many people died in Iraq the first two times around?

Can anybody explain to me what they died for?

And, you, you really wanna go back?

Look, I, I, I get it.

It's a fraught subject for you.

You saw a lot of friends die over there,

and you want to believe that their sacrifice was meaningful.

But, knowing what you know now,

would you really send them all over again?

(Sam chuckling)

What? Is this funny?

Am I funny to you?

- Why can't we ever just talk about music or something?

I mean, do you ever just go to movies?

Try turning this thing off, Joe?

I feel bad for the hamster-

- No, man, I'm serious.

It is not long before Sammy is old enough

to go over there himself.

Would you let him go?

- Yeah, I would.

Yeah, I would.

Mae, I mean she wouldn't allow it,

but, yeah, if it were up to me?

Absolutely. - Oh, how can you

possibly say that?

(light dramatic music)

- All right, Joe. - Yeah.

- Imagine that there is a man drowning

in this river, all right?

You don't know the guy, he's nobody to you.

For all you know, he might beat his wife and his kids,

and maybe the world's a better off place without him.

But all you know is that there's a human being

screaming over there, and you hear him.

So, what do you do?

Do you just stand here and watch him die,

or do you jump in and try to save his life?

- All right, uh, the current is too fast so if I jumped in,

there's a good chance that we'd both drown.

So, I would, uh, find a long branch

and use it to pull him out.

(Sam chuckling)

What? - And there is the difference

between you and me, Joe.

Okay, so you find your branch.

- Yeah. - Or maybe you don't.

Maybe you pull him out, maybe the branch snaps.

Maybe he drowns before he can grab a hold of it.

But whatever happens, you tell yourself that

you did everything that you could.

But that's a lie because you didn't risk anything.

- So you would just jump in? - Without a second thought.

- It's reckless. - Life is not always safe.

- You, you would probably die.

- Well, shit, maybe.

You know what?

If I lived, though, I wouldn't have any regrets.

And you know what?

That's, that's, that's what I want for my sons.

That's what I want for my friends.

You know what your problem is?

(Joe scoffs) You overthink everything.

You don't commit.

Well, indecision just leads to somebody else's

decisions being made for you.

Sometimes, you gotta fucking jump in the river.

(water rushing)

(light dramatic music)

(branches rustling)

(both panting)

- It's moving too fast.

- No, we can ride the current downstream.

- We have no idea what's downstream.

- [Joe] It'll confuse the dogs.

- We'll freeze to death. (dogs barking)

- Only if we don't drown in the rapids.

Or we could just stand here and wait to get shot.

What do you want to do?

(suspenseful music) - Okay.

(Tracy panting)

(suspenseful music) (Tracy panting)

- Oh, what is it?

Hey.

Hey.

You okay?

Hey.

Hey.

Hey, look at me look at me.

Okay, you're okay, you're okay.

You're okay.

Hey, I've got you.

I've got you.

You're okay.

Say it.

Say it, you're okay.

- I'm okay.

- You're okay. - I'm okay.

- Hey, did you have a bad dream?

(Tracy sighs)

Hey, it's okay. (Tracy sighs)

It's okay.

Hey, hey, look at me.

Hey, you're back in real life now, okay?

We're at your lake house.

We're together, everything's good.

Okay? - Yeah, yeah.

- [Mae] Come here.

It's okay.

It was just a dream.

- [Tracy] I'm sorry.

- [Mae] No, It's okay.

I've got you.

(Tracy sighs)

It's okay.

(birds chirping)

(Holly sighs)

(Holly giggling)

- What're you thinking about?

- The day we met.

- You looked so lost the first time I saw you.

So innocent.

I liked you right away.

- I'd just had a panic attack.

I, I had to leave the church before the service was over.

- Is that something that happens to you often?

- [Reuel] No, never happened to me before.

- Hm, what do you think caused it?

- I don't know, maybe God was sending me out to meet you.

(both chuckling)

- [Holly] Why would God care if we met?

- Oh, I don't know, maybe he wanted me to reexamine my life

or become a better person.

- Oh.

But why would the all powerful God you pray to care at all?

- Maybe for the same reason that we care about our children.

- Well, I think, I think you're already a good person.

- Why?

- Because I wouldn't be with you otherwise.

You've dedicated your life to helping people,

to making them safer.

- Well, if that's why you like me,

I better go to work today.

(Holly sighs) (Reuel chuckling)

(Reuel groans)

- Have fun.

(Holly moaning)

(lips smacking)

(Reuel sighs) (Holly sighs)

(birds chirping)

(Holly deeply exhales)

(light dramatic music)

Reuel?

(leaves rustling)

Who would do such an awful thing?

(ominous music)

- Yeah, I guess it would be weird, right?

You and I would be step brothers.

My mom always wanted to have more kids.

She had a miscarriage when I was in third grade.

She and my dad wanted to have a big family,

but, you know, after she lost the-

(phone ringing)

Speak of the devil.

Hang on, dude.

Hey, Mom.

- Hey, how are you?

- I was just talking to Anders about you

and Mr. Crane having a baby.

- Okay, calm down.

We're just away for the weekend.

- [Sammy] Yeah, you having fun?

- I am.

- Mr. Crane's a nice guy.

- Yeah, I think so too.

I wanted to remind you that you have

that AP English prep class tonight.

- Yeah, I know, I know.

- Okay, good.

Well, I miss you guys.

Okay, I'll call you later.

- All right, bye bye. - Bye.

(birds chirping)

- [Tracy] If Turner and Sirin are together,

I could already be blown.

- They're trapped in the woods.

We're jamming all the cell signals.

It's only a matter of time before we get them.

- Fuck! - Calm down.

- Don't tell me to calm down.

Sirin shouldn't know my name.

He shouldn't even know I exist.

- Where are you?

- Don't worry about me, I'm safe.

- You could be in Moscow by morning.

- [Tracy] That's not an option.

Moscow isn't part of my plans.

I've gotta go.

- I'll call you when I know more.

- Okay, kiddo, have fun on your camping trip.

Love you. - Was that Anders?

- Mm hm.

- Oh my God, did he tell you what he

and Sammy were just talking about?

- No, what were they talking about?

- Nah, I'm not even gonna go there.

(Tracy chuckles) - Okay.

- This is so beautiful.

- Yeah, it is, isn't it?

You know, I found this place completely by accident.

- Really? - Mm hm.

I was gonna meet this guy and he gave me the wrong address,

and so I ended up here instead of where

we were supposed to meet.

Life just seemed so simple.

I wanted a piece of that simplicity for myself.

- I can see why. - Hm.

You hungry, you want breakfast?

- Yes! (Tracy chuckling)

What're you making?

(plastic crinkling)

(sirens wailing) (car horn beeping)

(candies rattling)

- Okay.

There.

You can bring it to him now.

- You're the boss, but do you think it's a good idea

to torment him like this?

- You're right.

- About you being the boss?

(door slamming)

(door lock beeping)

(door creaking) (light dramatic music)

(Gordon sighs)

- Is this your handiwork, Robin?

Why are you making this so personal?

Is it because your husband left you for another man?

Not that that part matters, but is that,

is that what this is about?

Huh?

You see me with my happy family,

and you wanna drag us down into the hole with you?

Is that it?

Well, you won't succeed.

I didn't do what you say I did.

And you're not gonna break me.

You hear me, Robin? (Robin sighs)

You're not gonna break me.

- Challenge accepted.

- [Agent] Ma'am?

It's about CHS Phoenix. - What about it?

- In the draft box of the Gmail account you use,

he sent up an SOS.

(food thudding)

- What did the message say?

- "My people are onto me.

I'm being watched.

I haven't much time, requesting asylum."

How would you like to handle it?

- Um...

Phoenix has earned his retirement.

Initiate protocols.

I'll meet him tonight.

And get me an overwatch for 2000 hours.

- Yes, ma'am.

(Robin sighs) (light dramatic music)

- Hey, got a room? (door thudding)

- [Motel Manager] What happened to you?

- Oh, I took a swim in the river.

- With your clothes on? - Yeah.

Didn't want 'em to get stolen.

- Right. - So, how about that room?

- That'll be 60. - All right.

(keys jingling)

(wet money thudding)

(keys jingling) All right, thank you.

(door creaking) (door thudding)

? Reviving life ?

- [Mae] Do you wanna tell me about your dream?

- What dream?

It wasn't that bad, really.

- It was bad enough to make you

jump out of bed this morning.

- It was just about someone from my past.

I'm sorry if I scared you.

- That old cliche about the spy's past catching up with him?

- Yeah.

I guess my dreams aren't very original, are they?

- No, it's a good thing that your dreams

aren't what interest me about you.

- Oh, yeah?

Well, what does interest you about me?

(lips smacking)

I have an idea.

- Yeah? - Mm hm.

- I think I know... (lips smacking)

What your idea is. - Hm?

Let's go fishing.

- That is exactly what I thought you were gonna say.

(both laughing)

(mobile phone buzzes) - Ugh.

Sorry, I gotta take this.

Be right back.

Hey.

- So, I heard a rumor that you went away on vacation

and I knew that had to be bullshit,

so I'm calling to find out what time

you're coming into the office today.

- It was all just getting to me, you know?

- Well, you can't run away from your problems.

- Aren't you the one who told me to recuse myself?

- That doesn't sound familiar.

So, how much time do your feelings need

before you can bring them back to the office?

I'm feeling phantom pains from losing my right arm.

- Ah, well, aren't you sweet?

I'll see you Monday.

- I will see you Monday.

(Robin sighs)

(car engines humming)

(lighter clicking)

- Hey, bud.

Bum a smoke?

- Yeah, sure. - Yeah.

You went to Jefferson, right?

- Huh? (lighter clicking)

- Jefferson High.

- Oh, no, no, no.

I'm just, uh, passing through.

- [Guy] Really?

Thought for sure you looked familiar.

- Oh, yeah? - Mm hm.

- No, no, no, I get that a lot, though.

- [Guy] Yeah, I'm getting out of here myself.

- Oh, yeah?

Where are you going?

- I'm not sure yet.

Had a job lined up out in California for a minute

but it didn't work out.

- Right.

- You know, across the river in D.C.,

people no better than you and me

are making history as we speak.

But this place might as well be a million miles away.

- Yeah.

- Hey, mind if I bum one for the road?

- Sure, buddy.

You know what, take two.

- Thanks.

- Take it easy. - Mm hm.

(Vasili lightly groaning)

(paper bags rustling)

- I need to make a phone call.

There's someone I trust.

- I don't trust anybody but you.

- Yeah, well, we're stuck in a motel room.

When just over there, across the river,

there is an entire counter intelligence case open

and being worked by the professionals.

I can at least tell 'em what we know

and find out what they know.

(Joe sighs) (light dramatic music)

- Okay.

(paper bags rustling)

- I didn't start this war; it was declared on me.

But I sure as hell don't wanna lose it.

- [Carla] Reuel?

- [Reuel] We have the 911 call, right?

- Yes, but-

- And voice synthesis confirms it's him?

- Yes, but he's a 17 year old.

- Mm hm.

He sent a SWAT team to my home, destroyed my lawn.

His age is hardly relevant.

- The courts are taking SWATting very seriously.

They're prosecuting cases with deterrence in mind.

- That's good.

Maybe our, our little friend will be deterred

from future acts of aggression on his elders.

- I'm saying he could go to jail.

For a long time.

Maybe you should turn the other cheek.

(Carla sighs)

The only justice is God's justice.

- Fine.

Hold off for now.

- Okay, Boss.

(Kat sighs)

- [Tracy] The day a fish is caught

is the worst day of its life.

Do you know why?

- 'Cause it dies and gets eaten?

- Yeah, obviously.

But the other really shitty reason beyond that is,

now here's a fish and it's chasing its prey,

thinking it's about to eat.

Now, imagine you ordered a cheeseburger

and you're salivating,

and you're about to take that first bite,

then all of a sudden, (grunting)!

The cheeseburger eats you.

That's what it feels like to be a fish.

- That's really fucked up. - Right?

(muffled talking)

(water bubbling)

(Mae cheering)

(Tracy chuckling)

- Oh, buddy! - Oh, Mae.

Well done!

This guy's got some size to him.

- I did it! - He is gonna cook up nicely.

- Yes, he would if I weren't throwing him back.

- Wait, what?

- Set him free.

- Oh, is this 'cause of what I said earlier?

- He can't breathe.

- But I was gonna make you my famous bass benedict

for breakfast tomorrow.

- Well, I want pancakes. (Mae giggling)

- Okay, give him a kiss before he goes goodbye.

- No, thanks.

You can kiss him for me.

(Tracy laughing)

- All right, well, this little guy is gonna have

a hell of a story to tell.

(Tracy sighs) (fish splashing)

All right, well,

I guess we're not gonna be fishing buddies, huh?

- Well, that's not really the kinda buddy

I was looking for anyway. - Oh, no?

- No. - What kinda buddy

were you looking for?

(mobile phone buzzing) Oh.

- Is everything okay?

- Yeah, I, uh...

- Lemme guess, you need to take it.

- [Tracy] Lady gets a prize.

- I'll just meet you up at the house.

- All right.

(ominous music)

Hi, did you find Vasili?

Are you all right?

- Yeah. - Where are you?

- I can't tell you that.

- Why?

- Vasili's not in a very uh, trusting mood just yet.

- Well, then, I'll come personally.

- No, that includes you.

- Why doesn't Vasili trust me?

- I guess he figures the mole could be just about anyone,

and he's feeling very paranoid,

and he is alive and I think he'd like to stay that way.

- Doesn't he know who the mole is?

Isn't that what started all this?

- He was bluffing.

He said he knew that there was a mole, just not who it is.

- How?

- His, uh, his friend told him.

Arcadiy Volk.

(dramatic music)

(Polina coughing)

(Polina clearing throat)

(suspenseful music)

(Kat groaning)

(phone ringing)

(fist thudding)

- [Tracy] You motherfucker.

It was you. - What was me?

- [Tracy] You told Sirin about me.

Turner's with Sirin.

We just spoke. - Where are they now?

- I don't know, and I don't care

'cause Sirin doesn't know my name.

- What?

- You don't even remember what you told him, do you?

You must've been shit faced.

You told Sirin you had an asset operating inside the CIA,

but you never told him my name.

Sirin's been bluffing!

- I should've told you.

- No, you should've kept your fucking mouth shut.

But, you know what?

You know what, I don't care.

I'm out, I'm done, I'm retired.

- Won't that look suspicious?

- My best friend just got arrested for being a double agent.

No one's gonna question the timing.

- We should talk about it.

- No, no, no.

I'm done talking.

You just about got me burned.

And if that got back to Moscow,

that wouldn't look too good for you.

Have a nice life. (dramatic music)

(muffled talking)

(helicopter whirring) (pigeon cooing)

- [Reuel] What have you got for me?

- [Suit] It's about Thrush's investigation into you.

- That investigation was culminated

without any substantive findings.

- Well, I guess it's been reopened.

- Oh. - It'll cost you 10.

- Pigeons are synanthropes.

Like squirrels, raccoons, rats,

they thrive in environments made by humans.

Generally considered to be pests.

Synanthropes are tolerated but unloved.

- You're really hurting my feelings.

(sirens wailing)

- Five. - Eight.

- Seven.

- Senator Thrush is pursuing an obstruction

of justice charge against you.

- How?

- Someone gave a sealed deposition.

Her name is Mae Barber.

That name mean anything to you?

- I'll send the money around.

- Do it soon.

It'll be harder to do from prison.

(pigeon wings flapping) (light dramatic music)

(phone ringing)

Hello? - We're going to war.

Get ready.

- With a 17 year-old boy?

- And the mother.

- I know people.

I know people in Counter Intelligence.

I know people in the Deputy Director's office.

These people can actually protect you.

- Those are resources inside the CIA.

As long as the mole is out there-

- What.

- It's better if I just disappear.

- Hey, I thought you planned to pay for your passage?

- Not with my life.

- But you're willing to watch people pay with theirs?

Not to mention all the people

who are still suffering on your behalf?

- History has known less fair arrangements.

I'm sorry I lied.

But I've been helping the CIA for years.

You don't think I was expendable in their eyes?

When I told them my life was in danger,

they sent you and the passport of a man

who doesn't even look like me.

I risked my life for your country.

(light dramatic music)

- Fuckin' dammit.

(Joe sighs)

We need to get to Volk.

- It's not possible. - It's the only way.

He's the only one who knows the identity of the mole.

- You won't get near him.

- Maybe.

But I think I know someone who can.

(dramatic music) - Leave her out of this.

She's done enough.

She's been pushed past her limit.

- Yeah, well, it's only when we're at the limit

that we discover what we're truly capable of.

(Vasili grumbling)

(light dramatic music)

- Ugh.

(Robin sighs)

- The overwatch team is in place, ma'am.

- It was said that King Solomon was especially fond

of a loyal servant by the name of Ahyah.

One day King Solomon entertained

the Angel of Death in his court,

and he noticed a strange look on Death's face

when he saw Ahyah pouring wine.

Later, when they were alone, Solomon asked him about it,

and Death admitted that he had been surprised to see Ahyah,

for he was on Death's list for the very next day.

Later that night, when Death left the court,

Solomon sent his servant away,

insisting he ride all the way to Arabia

to flee his date with Death.

That was the last time Solomon saw Ahyah.

But the next time Solomon saw the Angel of Death,

Death told him a funny story.

(light dramatic music)

- I'm drunk.

(Tracy chuckling) (Mae gasping)

- I thought you said you were never drinking again.

- I lied.

- [Teacher] He said he was surprised to see Ahyah

that day in Solomon's court because he hadn't been expecting

to find the servant in Jerusalem.

- Oh, thank you. - Looks great.

- Wow.

- Thank you.

I see you have no problem eating fish

when someone else catches it.

- You've exposed my hypocrisy.

- [Tracy] Mm.

- Must've been fun to catch this big motherfucker.

(both chuckling)

I think this is the biggest fish I've ever seen.

It's gigantic. (Tracy chuckling)

- [Teacher] The Angel of Death was surprised to find

Ahyah in Jerusalem because he had been planning

to meet him the next day in Arabia.

(dramatic music)

- Mm.

It's delicious.

You gonna take a bite of that salmon?

- Yeah, yeah.

- So, the wise king, in trying to help

Ahyah escape his destiny, sends his favorite servant

to the very place where Death was waiting for him.

I wonder what he did to the servants

he didn't like, hm? (door creaking)

So, what does the story mean?

Yeah. - It means...

- The big law. - Fuck, you seeing this shit?

(muffled talking)

- Thank you.

Sam Barber. - Yeah?

- You're under arrest.

Stand up for me.

Spin around and put your hands behind your back.

Stay there, right there. (handcuffs clicking)

All right, hold still for me.

Don't move. (suspenseful music)

(heels clicking)

(brakes squeaking) - Hey, Katerina.

I think we have a friend in common.

I need your help.
