00:01I'll do what you asked. I'll lead you to St. George.
00:05I suggest we remove you, ma'am.
00:07No.
00:09This place won't survive without you.
00:11Then I built it wrong.
00:16What happened?
00:20This whole time you...
00:22You know?
00:23We don't have time for this.
00:24It's adrenaline. It'll give you another few hours.
00:26But only take it if you're seizing.
00:28The dose is strong enough to induce a heart attack.
00:30Have we figured out how Victor Simonakis is connected to this?
00:34He's been entertaining Alexander's parents since lunch.
00:37I did my part.
00:38My parents better be safe.
00:40You're not St. George.
00:44Kill Hale and the parents!
00:58Dr. Kasparian?
00:59Mark.
01:00From Kevnik.
01:01Dr. Kasparian?
01:04Mark.
01:05Mark.

01:11Mark.
01:12From Kevnik.
01:13I have the samples you requested.
01:16You're...
01:17You're...
01:18Not what I expected.
01:19It's impossible to track you.
01:20Dr. Kasparian?
01:21Dr. Kasparian?
01:23Mark.
01:24Mark.
01:25From Kevnik.
01:26I have the samples you requested.
01:29Dr. Kasparian?
01:30I have the samples you requested.
01:31Dr. Kasparian?
01:40Dr. Kasparian?
01:41You're...
01:42not what I expected.
01:43It's impossible to track these pills back to him.
01:47Or any of them.
01:49If this goes wrong, it's on us.
01:52We'll either end up in jail or dead.
01:54And for me, it's not about money.
01:56There's no amount worth the risk.
01:58so what'd they catch you doing me i was upstate
02:07we are not the same i don't live in fear that my bad deeds will catch up to me
02:15you bought into the ideology anything i do guarantees that no one experiences what i have
02:28ever again but you didn't expect to have to go this far to hurt someone close to you
02:35are you really gonna go through with it thanks for coming mark from kevnik
02:41be sure to leave your card at reception so we know where to find you
02:58so
03:05so
03:13so
03:20so
03:28something's changed
03:56just have this terrible feeling like i'm gonna miss something big
03:59keep watching alexander if he's not on board we call it
04:03i'd like to meet him
04:08it's an honor to meet you man
04:24this used to be a sort of a classroom where we taught our operatives to resist interrogation
04:34we taught them to survive as long as possible by distancing from the truth
04:42i think that the battle was in their minds that no interrogator can take what you have not already
04:49decided to give
04:51i think you can relate to this
04:58it can't be easy knowing your eyes and ears are hacked
04:59no ma'am
05:04they tell me you have a conscience problem that it gets in the way of orders
05:13why'd you save the child in your copenhagen test you saved the boy not the woman why
05:18because he was in greater danger you knew the american citizen was the priority
05:24yes but she had a shot at getting on the next job
05:27i was already in your arms putting him down feels a more deliberate evil than just turning your back doesn't it
05:37the oss designed the copenhagen test right after the war
05:42they needed to know that our operatives would follow an order no matter what their conscience said
05:47that loyalty to our country superseded any other human concern
05:52they designed the test as a binary
05:55pick one or the other
05:56but i think the real question is why didn't you save them both
06:03i couldn't
06:03yes you could you could have given up your seat
06:07if i had missed that helicopter i would have had to stay hidden until they came back to get me
06:11and if i was captured i'd be used as a bargaining chip against us
06:14no that's a good rationalization after the fact
06:18it's not what you were thinking in the moment though is it
06:20i was thinking about my team
06:21returning to a combat zone without the element of surprise
06:24i could have gotten them all killed over a rescue mission
06:26that's a concern i'm sure it's not the whole answer
06:30with respect ma'am
06:33you don't know what i was thinking
06:34do you?
06:37i've replayed this in my mind a thousand times
06:41i made the choice that saved the most lives
06:44in a hypothetical
06:47whereas you had two civilians in front of you who needed help
06:50and you were the only one of the three with a chance of getting out alive
06:54i made a split second decision
06:55and it bothered you beyond words for years
06:58it was the tipping point that started your panic attacks
07:00it was the thing you couldn't shake
07:02because deep down you know there was another way
07:06you can intellectualize every angle of it
07:09but your body is not convinced
07:11you made a choice that part of you hates
07:13i think while you were bending the rules
07:22you didn't give up your seat because you knew your commanders didn't want you to
07:27you were still following orders
07:31there's a flaw in the test
07:40it's a binary
07:41us or them
07:42the real world is far more complex
07:46they tell me
07:50your problem is following your conscience
07:53i think your real problem is you haven't gone far enough
07:57we don't know what our enemy is after
08:03but you weren't chosen at random
08:05at some point you'll be approached
08:08possibly to be turned against us
08:11no matter what they say
08:13no matter what we say
08:15no matter what the orders are
08:16let's see where your compass takes you
08:21watch him very very closely
08:29and if you see evidence that he is colluding with the enemy
08:32be prepared to give the kill order
08:33verbal confirmation of the conditions of the kill order please
08:38conditions understood
08:41do you really think you flipped?
08:53i think
08:54nothing makes sense
08:58none of the puzzle pieces are fitting together
09:01so i can't see the picture yet
09:04i'm gonna pop in and say hi to victor
09:08really?
09:09yeah

11:15we found him

11:28why would he say that out loud?
11:30they're still there
11:40five minutes out from cabin
11:42when alexander said i love you to his parents it wasn't in mandarin
11:46what was it?
11:48uh...
11:49haka
11:50yeah
11:51we would speak mandarin if it was just us in the house
11:54unless my dad was bad at me
11:56if i was really in trouble he'd speak haka
11:58but if there were guests in the house or if we were in public or even just on the phone
12:04pull up the restaurant when alexander left
12:06parker we're at the cabin in two
12:08i need to see the mom's face

12:35why would he say it out loud?
12:37exactly
12:38why wouldn't he just write it down for Schiff to see?
12:40because Schiff didn't know that we were listening
12:42alexander was giving us the plan so that we could prepare
12:45and in his poseidon interview he said that his dad only ever used haka when he was really in trouble
12:49and when he said goodbye to them he didn't use mandarin
12:52he used haka
12:53he was telling them to stay and listen to him because he was in trouble
12:56alexander's been trying to tell us that he's not flipped but he can't let Schiff know what he's doing
13:00he's
13:02he's throwing us a hail mary we have to trust him
13:04wouldn't it be lovely if she were right?
13:10and if you're wrong?
13:12oh i'll kill him myself
13:19wait!

19:42And, uh, who are you?

19:50Well, thank you, but ex-girlfriend, he broke up with me.
19:53Oh, yeah?

25:22no
25:25It's okay.
25:50It's okay.
25:55Hi.
25:57Hey.
25:59How are you feeling?
26:01Better.
26:03I got you.
26:09We think the worst is past.
26:12We were able to slow down the electrical processes in your brain, and then everything normalized.
26:18Whoever upgraded this technology, they found a way to bypass the worst of the symbiosis.
26:26It gave you a fighting chance.
26:28The good news is it's stable, and you're going to live a very long time.
26:35And I'm going to be here for a bit.
26:42Just for a little while, until the feed's contained.
26:49How would you feel about serving as assistant director of operations?
27:01I'd feel like you were making a mistake.
27:07No offense, but there have to be more impressive resumes.
27:09Many people in this building would agree with that.
27:13We've been running the intelligence services for the better part of eight decades, assuming
27:20that our conscience must be silent.
27:21I would like, in my more hopeful moments, to believe there's another way.
27:27Maybe you could find it.
27:50Maybe you could find it.
27:55ynchronous, propositions.
27:58Hey.
27:59.
28:02You could find it.
28:04It
28:15hits the filter, every once you haven't.
28:22So mission's really over, huh?
28:41Just when I got to know Michelle.
28:48So, what are you going to do next?
28:52I got a promotion.
28:54Mmm. You deserve it.
28:58And the first thing I did with my new impressive power was ask for a restricted personnel file.
29:10Then I had it incinerated. All backups, too.
29:19Is that the truth?
29:22Yeah.
29:29Did you?
29:31Didn't want to know.
29:35It's gone.
29:38Forever.
29:51You deserve it.
29:53You deserve it.
30:03So...
30:09Who do you want to be?
30:10Ready?
30:11What?
30:12You deserve it.
30:13I'm sorry.
30:14I'm sorry.
30:15I'm sorry.
30:16I'm sorry.
30:18I'm sorry.
30:19You're sorry.
30:20You're sorry.
30:21I'm sorry.
30:22You're sorry.
31:23Put your hands up! Move to the back! Now! Move to the back! Face the wall!
31:33Against the wall now!
31:34You're welcome! Let's go!
31:36Put your hands up!
31:38Clear!
31:38Thanks, buddy.
31:39The operation that hacked you has been shuttered. We dismantled Schiff's monitoring station, confiscated his drives, and since Rachel's cabin was destroyed, we confirmed they didn't send it anywhere else.
31:54Thanks. It's over.
31:57But I'm still broadcasting through my head, right?
32:01Yeah. It's permanent. But you can go back to normal life.
32:04How can you be so sure?
32:05Come on, Ale. There is no sure.
32:10But I'm a fan of stacking the deck in our favor.
32:13Now that we're not keeping up appearances for Schiff, Francis took the opportunity while you were unconscious to install a governor.
32:27But you can go back to full broadcast.
32:30Press the side button on the watch to turn it on or off.
32:33Green means you're broadcasting.
32:34Red means you're not.
32:45You want to keep the hack open.
32:47That depends on what you want to do next.
32:55Take your time.
32:57But if you're not done with clandestine work, there's still some fun we could have.
33:04Let me know what you decide.
33:08I need you to send a message to someone for me.
33:12Whoever figured out it wasn't flipped, whoever...
33:15whoever came up with the plan with fake St. George...
33:22Just tell them I say thank you.
33:24Tell her yourself.
33:34Hi.
33:50Hi.
33:57Thank you for saving my life.
34:00Again.
34:00You have no idea.
34:04Probably not.
34:06But my parents are alive because of you.
34:09No.
34:11You did that.
34:12It was an impossible choice.
34:15Parents are the orphanage.
34:19But you finally found a way to save both.
34:24By not doing it alone.
34:25Good job with Michelle.
34:29That was, uh...
34:31That was perfect.
34:33I know.
34:34Until she stabbed me.
34:37Good thing she didn't kill you.
34:41You know, I'd say see you around, but, uh...
34:45I feel like it'd be safer for you if I didn't know what you looked like.
34:49Yeah.
34:53Yeah.
34:57It's better this way.
35:01Yeah.
35:01Yeah.
35:01It's better this way.
35:02It's better this way.
35:02It's better this way.
35:02It's better this way.
35:03It's better this way.
35:03It's better this way.
35:04It's better this way.
35:04It's better this way.
35:05It's better this way.
35:05It's better this way.
35:06It's better this way.
35:06It's better this way.
35:07It's better this way.
35:07It's better this way.
35:08It's better this way.
35:08It's better this way.
35:09It's better this way.
35:09It's better this way.
35:10It's better this way.
35:10It's better this way.
35:11It's better this way.
35:11It's better this way.
35:12It's better this way.
35:12It's better this way.
35:13It's better this way.
35:14It's better this way.
35:15It's better this way.
36:16What about the heck?
36:18You wanted me to.
36:19You asked the question that prompted it.
36:21Why did he save me?
36:23If I was wrong about the kind of person that Alexander is, what else might I have missed?
36:27I started with experimental surveillance files looking for any way that he may have been compromised.
36:31And then I realized just how far you all were willing to go to win.
36:38As far as committing treason.
36:41And maybe, just maybe, far enough to keep the hack open.
36:49Even after Henry, or Schiff, was gone.
36:52Your point?
36:53I want in.
36:54And why in the name of our holy lord would we want someone who portrayed confidential information to the CIA and then almost got our asset killed to join the team?
37:08I don't know.
37:10But you do.
37:12Because we're meeting here.
37:15This is where we talk to field assets.
37:17You didn't want anyone to know that you were speaking with me.
37:20Because to the world, I'm a disgraced former orphanage refugee.
37:24They see me as someone with insider knowledge and a grudge.
37:30Definitely not someone still working for the orphanage undercover.
37:36We can use that.
37:45Yes, we can.
37:47Now arriving Metro Center.
37:52Doors will open on the right.
38:17Thanks for looking after my folks.
38:41Of course.
38:44Your mom's a lot.
38:47Yeah.
38:51You moving on?
38:52I'm done.
38:55Going to go live a normal life.
38:58Out there.
39:00Somewhere.
39:01Good.
39:04So what's your new name going to be?
39:10I get a ass.
39:17When you're finally done with the life,
39:19come find me.
39:23I thought we should finally meet after all this time.
39:53Have a little chat.
40:18So uh, this is all I got.
40:21Oh.
40:22Yeah.
40:23Yeah.
40:24That's fine.
40:29So when you went upstairs...
40:31I didn't know yet.
40:32So what did you do when you realized how did you not give it away?
40:36I used the incinerator to cover the sound of me writing a note without looking at it.
40:40It's really irritating how easily all this comes to you.
40:50Listen, um, I'm sorry about the whole turning you over to the agency stuff.
41:00You were just doing your job.
41:02They could have brought you in on it.
41:04No, if I were them I wouldn't have told me either.
41:14I owe you an apology, however inadequate that might seem.
41:19I left you in Berlin because it was more convenient for me.
41:24If I had it all to do again I'd make a different choice.
41:27No.
41:28It'd play out in the same manner again and again.
41:33Because for all your illusion of control you're just one person.
41:37The stone in the river.
41:39The system.
41:40The apparatus won't allow you to be any different than you are.
41:45Now who's diminishing how much a single individual can matter?
41:57Touche.
42:10Go home, Parker.
42:25Something doesn't fit.
42:27Oh my God.
42:28I'm serious.
42:31Your brain will have a hard time letting go when it's actually over.
42:35It can drive you crazy.
42:37Get some rest.
42:40Run it through with me.
42:43One last time.
42:48I doubt if an apology is why I'm here.
42:53Have you figured it all out yet?
42:55Of course you have.
42:57That's why I'm not currently handcuffed.
42:59Because you know you need my help.
43:05Wait, so making the new version of Cassandra,
43:09finding the right candidate,
43:11infiltrating their life,
43:12hacking them.
43:13That would take years.
43:16And then once the hack is active,
43:18they're just selling off intel to whoever will buy it.
43:21Doing it that way means that we would find them all within a matter of months.
43:24You exploited the hack.
43:26But you're not the one who did it in the first place, are you?
43:29Schiff wasn't trying to protect him.
43:31But why not?
43:32Alexander was an investment years in the making.
43:35You discovered it was happening,
43:37and then found your own back door into the signal.
43:40It's very good.
43:43I thought I'd have to explain all this in order to barter for my life,
43:46but this is much more efficient.
43:50I've been meaning to ask,
43:52how did you find me that night?
43:53I was following you since the carousel,
43:55keeping my distance.
43:57But how did you know where I was going to be?
43:59Dumb luck.
44:00I was actually tailing someone else at first.
44:04The signal was going in two directions.
44:09We thought it was just covering the trail.
44:11Who was it?
44:26Uh, oh, look who it is.
44:28I thought you were going out tonight.
44:30Wasn't feeling well.
44:33What is it? What's wrong?
44:37Cobb was watching you that night.
44:39You were the only connection to me that he knew about.
44:44He saw you make a call.
44:47Couldn't make out much,
44:48but he heard the words,
44:51carousel, and he's injured.
44:54You were calling for someone to give me medical treatment.
44:57Has Rachel been working with you the whole time?
45:03Did you hack me, Victor?
45:09Well, whenever I said-
45:14Did you hack me?
45:16Yeah.
45:17Uh, but I trusted you.
45:19Yeah, I-I trust you more than anybody else in the world.
45:25But this is bigger than you or me, and I need you-
45:29This wasn't just to get eyes inside the orphanage, was it?
45:35You know you never cease to impress me.
45:38Okay.
45:42You...
45:44...were always just a little too talented...
45:48...to stay stuck in the downstairs for very long.
45:51So we just had to make sure that wherever you ended up,
45:54it was gonna be somewhere where we needed you to be.
45:57We?
45:59So who are you working with?
46:00Who are you working with?
46:08You ordered the Copenhagen test.
46:13Yes.
46:15I had to prove you were worthy.
46:18And if you will just come with me, I will show you everything.
46:23All right, it's not much further.
46:40Listen, Alexander, do you remember the first thing I ever taught you about intelligence?
46:49Always assume you're only seeing one small piece of the puzzle.
46:54And so...
47:08We had to have more than one.
47:23...
47:28That particular asset is the only one like you.
47:31He knows we can see what he can see.
47:39Why are you watching Michelle?
47:43Well, we have to.
47:45She's a loose end.
47:46Don't...
47:48Don't...
47:49Don't...
47:50Don't look so alarmed.
47:52For people like us, Alexander...
47:54It's never done.
47:55It's never done.
47:56You know, it's never done.
48:01The End
