05:35one
05:35I really enjoy my role.
05:58I'm just looking for opportunities to grow within the organization.
06:02It's terrible.
06:03I like working downstairs, but I want to get back into the field because I have a strong
06:13skill set for operational work.
06:19Come on.
06:22How long were you special forces?
06:24Two years.
06:26Why'd they pull you from the field?
06:30I was just assigned to a desk drop one day.
06:32No one ever told me why.
06:33And you've been an intelligence analyst at the orphanage for two years, correct?
06:38That's right.
06:41Public cover story is you're a researcher at the SX Library, yes?
06:45That's correct.
06:46And now you work downstairs in our North Korean surveillance program, yeah?
06:59Yes, I'm an analyst, but that's why I'm here, interviewing for Operation Poseidon.
07:04I believe my skill sets are more than just listening and translating conversations.
07:09Sounds like you don't like your job very much.
07:12I just think I can do more than what I've been allowed to do.
07:17I want to be an upstairs field operative.
07:20The upstairs watch is the other clandestine organizations and internal affairs.
07:24Some people would have a problem with that kind of work.
07:28You?
07:32I just want to know that what I do for my country matters.
07:39We'll be making our decision soon.
07:41Oh, one more thing.
07:45I saw something on your DoD file about a panic attack you suffered shortly after a mission
07:49in Belarus.
07:53Wait!
07:54Please!
07:55Please help me!
07:57One time thing?
07:58Brush.
07:59It bites you.
08:00Please get me out of your pants!
08:02Yeah.
08:04Never happened again.
08:32Good construction.
08:45This train is being temporarily held at the Coal Street Station along the way for the eastbound
08:49DuPont Circle train to clear the platform.
08:53This will be a temporary delay.
08:55Please refrain from exiting the train at this time.
08:57Then the migraine just went away.
09:12It was instant.
09:14Interesting.
09:15Yeah, it's something about the signals being blocked.
09:17Yeah, the electromagnetism.
09:18Yeah, yeah, yeah.
09:19Maybe you're one of those people who's super sensitive.
09:21Maybe.
09:22Hey, do you guys remember our friend Logan?
09:24I'm so crazy.
09:25Traveling a lot?
09:25Yeah.
09:26It's been insane.
09:27And I had to sign my dad's 70th circle to leave him here in the town too well.
09:31I can't breathe anymore.
09:39I do it.
09:39I think I'm a black star.
09:41It's crazy.
09:47Um, I should probably get going.
09:49Oh, no, really?
09:50Hey, stay away.
09:51Thank you for this.
09:52It's nice.
09:53We'll probably all go soon, too.
09:55Yeah, most of it.
09:56Yeah.
09:56I appreciate it.
09:57All right.
09:57Bye, guys.
09:58See you, buddy.
09:59You know, if you're into her, you could always send over a drink.
10:03You know, if you're into her, you could always send over a drink.
10:25That's my ex-fiancee.
10:27That's my ex-fiancee.
10:30Oh.
10:31Well.
10:33Yeah.
10:34Now I gotta hear the story.
10:36So the, uh, friends we made together as a couple, I still think they haven't taken a side.
10:44One of them got a text.
10:46I assumed it was my ex asking what they were up to, and I figured she wouldn't join if she
10:50knew that I was here, so I left.
10:55That's noble.
10:56Then you stuck around and made it less noble.
11:03I guess I just wanted to see if I was right, you know?
11:06Hmm.
11:08You know, it's funny.
11:09My dad used to work homicide.
11:13He, uh, well, he was very obsessive, actually.
11:18He had the highest clearance rate in the entire precinct.
11:21His buddies always thought he was trying to show them up.
11:24Yeah.
11:25But they didn't get it.
11:28Yeah.
11:30No, he wasn't competing with them.
11:32Exactly.
11:34He was trying to prove something to himself.
11:37Because that's the voice that keeps you up at night.
11:43Yeah, something tells me you understand that.
11:48On the house.
11:59Michelle.
12:02Alexander.
12:04See you around.
12:05I'd expect a former sniper to be better at hiding in a crowd.
12:27I didn't see you slip out.
12:29I know.
12:30They think I'm in the bathroom.
12:33I figured you were almost out.
12:35I'm in the bathroom.
12:35I'm in the bathroom.
12:37How have the panic attacks been?
12:42Manageable.
12:44Still unpredictable.
12:46They also said inside you started having migraines.
12:49Wow.
12:50Came up quick, huh?
12:51When did the migraines start?
12:53I don't know.
12:53Dr. Kasparian?
12:55Two months ago, maybe?
12:57Everything okay?
12:58It's just some stress at work, okay?
12:59That's all.
13:00You work at the research library, where you can't let them know that you have panic attacks,
13:06for which you take anti-anxiety medication?
13:07Some day you'll meet someone you can truly be yourself with.
13:17Jealous of her already.
13:24This is the last time.
13:26Find another way to get the pills.
13:27Or, you know, actually talk to someone about all the stuff you don't ever talk about.
13:31See you next time.
13:32Okay.
13:37All right.
13:41Okay.
13:44Okay.
13:46I'm so sorry.
13:47I'm sorry.
13:47I'll get to see her๏ฟฝ cola.
13:49We're gonna answer this now.
13:50Who is here?
13:51He's here.
13:53Briefing's been moved up.
13:54Something went wrong with the asset.
13:55I may need to forward you all to sing it, in case this doesn't get wrapped up before I have to go.
13:59You're going upstairs.
14:01Yeah.
14:03Yeah, I'm running point on intelligence for Poseidon.
14:06Congratulations.
14:08I didn't realize they had made their choices already.
14:11Oh, shit. You applied, too.
14:14Listen, you're one of the better analysts here.
14:18And you being first-generation American,
14:21it just adds slightly more risk, statistically speaking.
14:25I'm just saying how it is.
14:28No, no. It's, uh...
14:30It's nice to hear someone say it out loud for once.
14:34Anytime.
14:50That was from Choi's phone last night.
14:52His body was found outside Pyongyang this morning.
14:54This was a targeted kill.
14:56They discovered he was working with us.
14:58Our intel chain is compromised.
15:02And Upstairs is taken on direct oversight.
15:04The tachyon program is being shut down.
15:06Also, you should know that Upstairs is triggering a review of all personnel in this room.
15:14Why are we getting reviewed?
15:24Because we've lost three assets in North Korea in the past four months.
15:28So either our communications has been hacked in some new undetectable way.
15:34Or someone's turned on us.
15:36This is an upstairs problem now.
15:38Someone here is compromised.
15:40They probably already know who it is.
15:42So I wouldn't worry about it.
15:44Unless you worked on all three assets.
15:46The router's clear.
15:56So was his laptop.
15:58Coming through his phone, but so far nothing.
16:00Oh, migraine's back.
16:02If Choi had been hacked, my teams would have been able to tell.
16:08What if it's something experimental?
16:10This isn't your problem to solve, Alexander.
16:14You did your job.
16:16I wouldn't worry about it.
16:18All three assets had different operators.
16:21Different collection methods.
16:22Different schedules.
16:23The only thing they had in common was the orphanage.
16:26And who had access to all three files?
16:28The directors, tachyon team leader, and one analyst.
16:32Me.
16:34Now you just sound paranoid.
16:38If they were looking into me, how would I know?
16:42I just analyzed signals, Alexander.
16:46I am the wrong person to ask about intrigue.
16:58I'm sure it'll all be fine.
17:02Get some rest.
17:03I'm sure you'll feel better.
17:14Bravo.
17:15There are more hostages headed towards you.
17:17Prioritize any American.
17:23Wait, wait.
17:24Please.
17:27Choose one of the hostages.
17:31One.
17:32Let's go.
17:46Let's go.
17:47Sorry.
17:48My fault.
17:50No, it's my fault.
18:11Guess who almost ran me over?
18:13Yeah, he saw.
18:18What's he doing now?
18:20Uh, writing the post-assessment report.
18:25He's trying to act like everything's normal?
18:27As soon as he's done, shut him down.
18:29Copy that.
18:42Hey, what's going on?
18:44We're headed home.
18:45Make sure you leave all your files.
18:46Anybody worked on tachyons on hold until we're all cleared.
18:49Nothing to worry about.
18:54Just routine.
18:58Precision.
18:59Precision.
19:00And focus.
19:01They're not going to remember the weight.
19:02They will remember the bite.
19:03Yes.
19:04Yes.
19:05We'll get to work.
19:09It's good, Victor.
19:10Fuck you, it's good.
19:11It's superb.
19:12Good.
19:13How's the game?
19:17It carries on without you.
19:18How dare it.
19:19You ever miss it?
19:20Not even a little bit.
19:21You know, when most people retire, they don't immediately take another job.
19:23Retirement's not for people in our line of work.
19:24Too much silence and the mind starts to wander.
19:26So, what's up?
19:27Personal life?
19:28Work?
19:29No.
19:30No.
19:31No.
19:32No.
19:33No.
19:34No.
19:35No.
19:36No.
19:37No.
19:38No.
19:39No.
19:40No.
19:41No.
19:42No.
19:43No.
19:44No.
19:45No.
19:46No.
19:47No.
19:48No.
19:49No.
19:50No.
19:51No.
19:52No.
19:53No.
19:54No.
19:55No.
19:56No.
19:57No.
19:58No.
19:59No.
20:00No.
20:01No.
20:02No.
20:03No.
20:04No.
20:05No.
20:06No.
20:07No.
20:08No.
20:09I see.
20:13That's a unique problem for them.
20:24There are things you need to know about the place you work.
20:26I already know about upstairs.
20:27I know we watch the other agencies.
20:29Yeah, but have you figured out how far they'll go?
20:34Listen to me.
20:35I was there.
20:36I was in Washington.
20:37I was in the White House, in a private back room, when this idea was born, that the watchman
20:43needed a watcher, hidden from the normal chain of command.
20:47At that time, there was a real concern about the power of the intelligence community, and
20:52so she built the orphanage from the ground up.
20:55You're talking about St. George.
21:03I thought she was just a legend.
21:05No, she's real.
21:07Hiding in plain sight.
21:09And yeah, she fashioned the upstairs as internal affairs, but think about what that means.
21:15If you compromise them, you compromise anyone.
21:17You compromise everyone they're watching.
21:21Yeah, you got the whole deck.
21:22And every single American intelligence agency would be at risk.
21:27So how far would they go?
21:31They cannot tolerate betrayal.
21:35They will not hesitate to remove liabilities permanently.
21:43And if they were looking into me, how worried should I be?
21:48That I would think about taking a long trip far, far away.
22:02Unless running made me seem guilty, which I'm not.
22:04No, no, no, no, it's not, it's, it's, it's, it's not your process here.
22:07If they suspect that you're compromised, you're dead.
22:12Alexander, I've known you your whole life, and I know the struggle that your parents imparted to you
22:16to prove you can be trusted here.
22:19Now you have to choose between your allegiance and your life.
22:34So, uh, what's the weather like up there?
22:37It's supposed to rain tomorrow.
22:40Hey, have you told him already?
22:42Did you tell him?
22:43How? He never calls.
22:44What? Told me what?
22:45I'm, uh, I'm driving at a Veterans Day parade in honor of you.
22:49I wrote him a letter and told him about what your service meant to our family,
22:56and just how proud we are of you.
23:02That's great.
23:03Yeah.
23:04Hey, listen, um, I'm going to be doing some traveling for work.
23:09It might be a while before I see you again.
23:11And I know I don't say this enough, but, uh,
23:15English, please, Alexander.
23:19I love you.
23:23You gave me everything I needed.
23:26I love you, too, honey.
23:31Bye.
23:32You're welcome.
24:32They found a leak.
25:02Okay.
25:05Our asset turned on us.
25:07And based on a suggestion in Alexander's post-assessment,
25:11upstairs looked at certain channels inside the SSD.
25:14Now, the working theory is that Choi got cold feet about betraying his country,
25:18gave up the other two assets to barter for his own life.
25:20Of course, they killed him, too.
25:23Mystery solved.
25:24There'll be a formal report down the line,
25:26but for now, at least we know the operational chain is not compromised.
25:29Sir, all these data sources have been redacted.
25:31That is correct.
25:32How do we know for sure that this intel can be trusted?
25:36Someone could be trying to cover their tracks.
25:38Upstairs is very confident in their findings, okay?
25:41You'll all get new assignments next week.
25:44And Godspeed to whoever Cobb's in charge of Hunt Poseidon.
25:50Alexander, hold up a second.
25:59You are headed upstairs.
26:05You report right away.
26:10What's Claymore?
26:12I have no idea.
26:14But apparently it comes from the top,
26:15so I guess your post-report impressed somebody.
26:18But my report never suggested that Troy could have flipped on us.
26:22But you told us where to look,
26:23and we found the evidence that he did.
26:24Sir,
26:31Troy reported to us on everyone in that lab,
26:33including the other two assets.
26:35If he had known that they were working with us,
26:37why would he have wasted time reporting on them?
26:40Clearly he didn't know,
26:41so how could he have been the source of the leak?
26:43Are you saying upstairs got him wrong?
26:45Or there's something we missed.
26:48Or our counterparts have a new way of gathering information,
26:50and we're already behind the curve.
26:51If upstairs isn't worried about it,
26:53then they know something that we don't.
26:56And I'd learn to live with that if I were you.
26:59Look, Alexander,
27:00this is a good thing.
27:07Okay?
27:08Allie, hi.
27:22I'll be your admin support for Claymore.
27:24Alexander, nice to meet you.
27:26Uh-oh.
27:26Are you charming?
27:27Don't be charming.
27:28I don't have time for an office crush.
27:30Sorry.
27:32We're headed to the Eisenhower wing.
27:34What's that?
27:35It's brand new.
27:37Don't touch anything.
27:44Welcome to upstairs.
27:45Cheers.
28:15This is Claymore.
28:31You'll run operations?
28:34Director Moira is handling intelligence personally.
28:45Start reading. You're behind.
28:52We're valid testing a source to see if their intel can be trusted.
28:55Who's the source?
28:57Codename is Mosaic.
29:00This has got to be something big.
29:02Congratulations to us all.
29:15Bravo. Do you copy?
29:28Who is this?
29:29Listen. There are more hostages headed towards you.
29:37You've got one seat in the chopper.
29:41Choose one of the hostages.
29:43One.
29:43Prioritize any American.
29:51I'm going to get you out of here.
29:59Wait!
30:00Help me, please!
30:02Please, please!
30:03Whoa, whoa, whoa!
30:04Take me with you, with you.
30:06Please, help me!
30:09Help me!
30:10I can't. I only have room for one.
30:12Help me, please!
30:13I'm...
30:14I'm...
30:14I'm...
30:14I'm...
30:14I'm an American citizen.
30:16I can't leave them.
30:17Please, please, help me get out of here.
30:20I'm sorry.
30:20There's another Helo inbound, okay?
30:22Just follow the tree line!
30:23No, they'll kill me!
30:25Please!
30:28Take them!
30:30There's more people back there!
30:32Americans!
30:33Okay, we're sending the other helo down!
30:38Okay.
30:38We're sending the other helo down.
30:42We're sending the other helo down.
30:44Oh, my God.
31:14What's on your mind, cowboy?
31:33How many times have you said that to a customer?
31:36Lots.
31:37But this time, I really mean it.
31:44What's going on?
31:45Bad day?
31:47I got a promotion at work.
31:51It's like everything I ever wanted.
31:53Wow, yeah, that sounds awful.
31:56Yeah, but when was the last time everything in your day
31:58went exactly right?
32:01Lucky breaks happen for people all the time.
32:05But you feel guilty because you think you don't deserve it.
32:09Which you don't.
32:11You don't deserve the lucky breaks.
32:13You don't deserve the shitty ones either.
32:16The trick is just figuring out how to accept that it just
32:22happened to be you.
32:24Wow.
32:30You are very good at your job.
32:33I know.
32:35Let go.
32:38Enjoy your life.
32:40Get out of here.
32:41Please just help me get out of here.
32:45I'm an American citizen.
32:50Please.
32:51Don't leave me.
32:54Please don't leave me.
32:55Please don't leave me.
32:56Something wrong?
32:57Hey, weird question.
32:58Do you like to travel?
32:59Um, I've never left the country, but I've always thought
33:01that I would like to, you know, see the world.
33:04Hmm.
33:19You?
33:22I used to travel a lot.
33:29Well.
33:33Call me sometime.
33:36You could tell me where I should go.
33:51Bravo.
33:52Do you copy?
33:53Copy.
33:54There are more hostages headed towards you.
34:01Whoa.
34:02Whoa.
34:03You've got one seat in the chopper.
34:04Choose one of the hostages.
34:05Choose one.
34:06Choose one.
34:08Come on.
34:09You're safe.
34:10Yeah.
34:11I only have room for one.
34:14one.
34:15One.
34:16One.
34:17One.
34:18One.
34:19One.
34:20One.
34:21One.
34:22One.
34:23One.
34:24One.
34:25One.
34:26One.
34:27One.
34:28One.
34:29One.
34:30One.
34:31One.
34:32One.

34:34One.
34:35One.
34:36One.
34:37One.
34:38One.
34:39One.
34:40Whoa, whoa, hey, easy!
34:42Please, please, please help me.
34:44I'm an American citizen, please, please take me with you, thank God.
34:47The bird's full, I can't take anymore.
34:49There's no room.
34:50What?
34:52I only have room for one.
34:54Please take me.
34:57I can't leave him, I'm sorry.
34:59They'll kill me, please!
35:10There's no room inside the room.
35:13Who just takes a room inside?
35:18Just eat it.
35:20Goodbye.
35:21Good news, guys.
35:23Thank you so much.
35:27Thank you for the great work.
35:29It's just something that sucks to hold you.
35:31I still have fun, I guess.
35:33้ฃ plane,schiedel,oopsie.
35:37You get to know when he was a journalist.
35:39I don't know.
36:09I don't know.
36:32Alexander.
36:34Hi.
36:35Hey.
36:37I didn't see you scan in.
36:40Do you need anything?
36:43I'm good.
36:44Thanks.
36:46No.
36:48No, I can't see you.
36:49No, not yet.
36:51Yeah.
36:52No.
36:53I can't see you.
36:54No.
36:55No, you just have to go.
36:57Let's go.
37:27Let's go.
37:57Let's go.
38:27Let's go.
38:37Send in Ellie to interrupt him?
38:39That's too obvious.
38:41We have to let him finish.
38:53All right, we have visuals.
38:55Checking audio.
39:13Checking audio.
39:23Does he know?
39:41Does he know?
39:43Does he know?
39:45Let's go.
39:47Let's go.
39:49Let's go.
39:51Let's go.
39:53Let's go.
39:55Let's go.
39:57Let's go.
39:59Let's go.
40:01Let's go.
40:03Let's go.
40:05Let's go.
40:07Let's go.
40:09Let's go.
40:11Let's go.
40:13Let's go.
40:15Let's go.
40:17Let's go.
40:19Let's go.
40:21Let's go.
40:23Let's go.
40:25Let's go.
40:29Let's go.
40:31Let's go.
40:33Let's go.
40:35Let's go.
40:37Let's go.
40:45He didn't figure it out.
40:47We're good.
40:51Or it's an act.
40:53Either way, get a wet team to his apartment.
40:55Nobody in or out.
40:57Pull the briefing into the cage.
40:59I only want him in there.
41:03Tell Remy to be in the library.
41:05If this guy bolts,
41:07we put him down.
41:16Hey.
41:17I'm gonna grab a coffee.
41:18Oh.
41:19I will get it for you.
41:20I don't mind.
41:21Want anything?
41:23No.
41:32The coffee cart's the other way.
41:33Where's he going?
41:37He's headed for the elevator bank.
41:39Is he going to the ground floor?
41:41Yes, sir.
41:43No.
41:44No.
42:01Remy, are you there?
42:04I'm in position.
42:07Intercept him, please.
42:08Make it discreet.
42:09Okay.
42:10Understood.
42:19Everyone wait.
42:23He'll come back.
42:24No.
42:25No.
42:26No.
42:27No.
42:49He's heading back.
42:50Where is she right now?
42:51Ma'am?
42:52We have a problem.
42:56No.
42:57No.
42:58No.
42:59No.
43:00I don't know.
43:01No.
43:02No.
43:03No.
43:04No.
43:06No.
43:07No.
43:08No.
43:09No.
43:10No.
43:12No.
43:14No.
43:15What?
43:16No.
43:17It's a lot to keep your eyes up.
43:20I haven't.
43:21No.
43:22What are you doing back down here?
43:26You were right.
43:28I was being paranoid,
43:30and it was starting to affect my work.
43:32I'm not gonna let it anymore.
43:34Just wanted to thank you for your advice.
43:40I hope we get to work together again.
43:42Oh, me too.
43:52Okay.
44:20Ready for this evening?
44:22Secure briefing?
44:24This way.
44:26Briefing's in the cage now.
44:28You ever been?
44:30Complete signal blackout.
44:32It's where I go to meditate. You will love it.
44:36You okay?
44:38Yeah, yeah. Just, uh...
44:40Bad migraine.
44:46Have fun.
44:52What you're doing?
44:56I'm coming from a bathroom.
45:00Nothing.
45:02I'm coming from a bathroom.
45:04I haven't been in the bathroom.
45:06I haven't?
45:08Nothing.
45:10I've never seen the room since.
45:12I haven't seen the room since the room.
45:14Oh, no.
45:16I don't know.
45:46How long have you willingly been committing treason against the United States government?
46:01What?
46:02How many months?
46:04Zero.
46:06And why stuff a pistol in a book and leave it in the library?
46:10Why would you run if you're innocent?
46:12Because you're still watching me.
46:18How long ago did they hack you?
46:21You're telling me it's real.
46:22You thought it was real enough to write that without your own eyes and ears knowing.
46:27I had to assume it was true until I was sure.
46:29Here you are on Monday.
46:38We checked everyone else in the building.
46:41You're the only one with this.
46:43That's a Wi-Fi signal streaming from your head.
46:51Microscopic nanites in your bloodstream attaching to the receptors in your brain, broadcasting everything you see and hear.
47:02Someone's been watching and listening through you.
47:04You're the mole, Alexander.
47:13I didn't know.
47:15In this room, the signal is blocked.
47:20This is a chance to save your own life.
47:24Did they approach you after it happened?
47:27Or were you in on it by the beginning?
47:29You can be honest.
47:30No, I would never knowingly betray my own country.
47:34Let's pretend you're telling the truth.
47:36And you didn't know until you read that report today.
47:40Then you spent...
47:4247 minutes reading other reports before you disposed of all the materials.
47:50If you thought you were hacked, why did you keep reading?
47:55Because if I was right, then they were watching.
47:58If I changed my behavior in any way, then they would know.
48:02I had to convince whoever was on the other side that I didn't suspect it.
48:06Why?
48:10Because the most valuable thing in intelligence is a line to the enemy.
48:15If they think the hack is still undiscovered, we can use that.
48:20Look, I understand that I might not walk out of this room.
48:28All I ask is that you tell my parents
48:30that I worked in clandestine services and I was killed in the line of duty.
48:38That would mean a great deal to them.
48:39Thank you for your time.
48:51Did you believe him?
49:08Yes.
49:10Because he said exactly what I wanted to hear.
49:13Exactly.
49:14So either we got lucky and they hacked the perfect person for us,
49:19or he's in on it.
49:21We got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we got lucky and we
49:51Where did the name Hale come from?
49:53It was Han originally, right?
49:56My parents arrived here before I was born.
50:01They fought very hard to fit in,
50:04and so they decided to change our family name.
50:08To sound more American.
50:10It's uncommon for Chinese immigrants
50:12to let go of their family name.
50:14Staying under the radar?
50:17You don't have to say.
50:21We have three questions that need to be answered.
50:27One, if you knew you were innocent,
50:31why'd you go back and look at the files?
50:33Because it matters to me whether or not
50:36my country thinks I'm a traitor.
50:39I have some questions, too.
50:42The bartender.
50:44One of ours.
50:46Was she a part of a test on me?
50:48A Copenhagen test?
50:50It appears so.
50:53Why was the test ordered on me?
50:55We don't know.
50:56It wasn't us.
50:59But someone at the Department of Defense
51:01had some doubts about you, apparently.
51:03Is that why I was pulled from the field?
51:05That's why I would have pulled you from the field.
51:08Did the orphanage hack me?
51:12No.
51:14Was your plan to use me
51:15and not tell me what was happening?
51:17Yes.
51:20If you didn't know you were hacked,
51:21you could never mess up and give the game away.
51:23Not really an option now, huh?
51:27As far as I see, we have two choices.
51:30We can either get you to safety
51:32and attempt to remove what's in your brain,
51:34but you would be done with intelligence forever.
51:38Or we keep the hack open.
51:43Yeah, that.
51:46You see and hear what we want you to.
51:50From this moment forward, your life is mine.
51:54Every single person you know or love or meet
51:56will become part of our game.
51:58No quitting, no retiring.
52:00If we don't succeed, you'll be dead.
52:07You're not going to have time to figure out if you trust us.
52:09And unfortunately, I don't have time to figure out
52:12if I trust you.
52:14Which leads me to my second question.
52:17Do you know why we don't have time?
52:20Because the standard briefing runs around 30 minutes.
52:24And if I'm blacked out for too long,
52:25whoever's on the other side will start to get suspicious.
52:31Which gives us about, you know, three minutes.
52:36So, last question.
52:47Are you in?
52:51We'll have to communicate with you out in the open.
52:53Sending you messages and instructions
52:55in ways the enemy won't suspect.
52:57You'll feel yourself questioning
52:58whether what you're experiencing is real or not.
53:01Don't.
53:02It'll make you crazy.
53:03Just accept it all.
53:04Only key personnel will know the truth about you.
53:07Everyone else here believes that Claymore
53:09is an actual operation.
53:11The first step is to figure out how this happened.
53:14That'll tell us when it started
53:16and how much intel has been compromised.
53:21Alexander.
53:22What are you doing up here?
53:27New assignment.
53:28Which is?
53:30Claymore.
53:31Claymore.
53:33Can't say much more than that yet.
53:39Until then, stick to your routine.
53:42Nothing to arouse suspicion
53:44or make them think anything has changed.
53:46We need whoever is watching
53:49to think that you are in the clear now.
53:51We need them to relax.
53:53Then we use you to find them
53:55and destroy them.
53:56We need them to find them.
54:01Too thin?
54:02Too thin?
54:10So, about your text earlier,
54:12the situation resolved itself.
54:14It was a secure briefing.
54:18They're convinced the problem in the house
54:20wasn't anyone they knew.
54:23Good.
54:24Good.
54:25But stay alert.
54:27Nothing is over entirely as it seems,
54:29especially in that place.
54:31And if anything ever comes up,
54:33you know you can tell me.
54:37Always.
54:38Thank you, guys.
54:40Thank you, guys,
