Someone there?
Who's in this room?
Damn. l'd hoped you'd be English.
Where am l?
You're in Port Noir.
This little village on the south coast of France.
lt's a village without boutique or. . .
. . .Club Med or T-shirts.
We've managed to avoid the 20th century.
lntend to be dead before the 21 st.
lt's quite a trick.
Who are you?
Who, me?
l'm the doc, Geoffrey Washburn.
The doc.
And you?
We should tell the authorities. People may be looking for you. Who are you?
Where do you live?
l need to know where to send my outrageous bill.
lt's a miracle you're alive, old son.
My head. l gotta sleep.
-Just your name. -Huh?
You do have a name?
My name. . . .
My name is. . . .
l have no idea.
My God! l don't know!
Sometimes, with rest, everything comes back.
And sometimes, nothing more than bits and pieces. Ever.
Trouble is, you see, l. . .
. . .l'm not a brain surgeon. l may have disconnected some wiring in there.
-Fishing out bullets. -Bullets?
lt won't help to concentrate.
Relax. Let images float in. Let the subconscious mind have a chance.
This boat, what happened to it? Why was l on it? Somebody shot me. Why?
-l have to remember. -lt won't work that way.
There was no report of a trawler lost, or any boat lost.
What else?
Nightmares.
As violent as anything l've seen.
The kids from the village come to watch, no commercials.
ln them, you speak French, Spanish, German and something Oriental.
Can't remember those.
-And, you've undergone plastic surgery. -Plastic surgery?
Your nose, chin, cheekbones have been worked on.
-What? -Originally you looked different.
-l must've been in an accident. -l don't think so.
The scars would be more like the scars on your body.
Most of them 1 2, 1 5 years old.
Scars, l'd guess, from bullets, shrapnel, that sort of thing.
A war?
Maybe. But, you see, the trouble is, you've been sewn up. . .
. . .better than any army normally sews up its boys.
lt's all very peculiar.
How will l find out who l am if l've been turned into somebody else?
Geoff, l don't know what to do.
Help me.
-Break it down. Fast! -What?
Break it down!
How did l know how to do that?
l don't know.
Three Cuban diplomats were expelled from the country...
...in connection with the search for the terrorist called Carlos.
Carlos is wanted for questioning...
...in the assassination of U.S. Ambassador Leland.
Carlos has been linked with...
... the Japanese Red Army, the West German Bader-Meinhof Gang...
... the Organization for Armed Arab Struggle and the Turkish PLO....
Carlos was seen in Beirut and London.
That's the world news from Radio Luxembourg.
Does the name. . .
. . .Carlos mean anything to you?
-Nothing. Should it? -You're sure?
Vague feelings? Anything?
Carlos.
-l don't know. Vague feelings. -Yes?
Feelings of. . .?
Danger.
Something.
l don't know, Geoff. Who's Carlos?
Just a name.
Why here, Geoff, when you're so good?
They said l was drunk.
They say l killed two patients on the operating table because l was drunk.
l could've gotten away with one, but not two.
They said they saw a pattern emerging, so they kicked me out.
Don't give a man like me a knife and cloak it in respectability.
What say--
He recognized me. He knows me.
Stop! l want to talk to you!
Stop a minute, will you?
Come on!
Stop!
They said you were hard to kill.
Hey, you! Get out of here! Get out of here, now!
-You all right? -l've got to catch him.
He knows me.
You're not well. Whoever wants you dead will be back.
We must get you out of this village. lt's not safe for you here anymore.
Pere Jacques will pick you up. He owes me. He'll get you to Marseilles.
-And, here. -What's this?
What money l've got. lt's a start.
-Geoff, l can't take-- -l don't need it. A passport as well.
Pere Jacques knows a man who'll alter it.
lt wasn't enough to save me?
The most interesting work l've done in years. l've got an investment in you.
l won't forget this.
l have been keeping back a crucial piece of the puzzle. . .
. . .waiting for you to get stronger. Now we're out of time. Come look.
-What am l looking for? -Tell me what you see.
-Microfilm. Numbers. -And above the numbers?
''Gemeinschaft Bank Zurich. '' l don't understand.
ln Switzerland, numbers are the same as a signature on a bank account.
-Where'd you get this? -From your hip.
lt had been surgically implanted.
You didn't tell me? You know what this means?
-l presume it-- -ln this bank, with these numbers. . .
-. . .that's where the answers are. -Answers are overrated anyway.
There he is. Now, you better hurry.
-l'll be back. -l'm not going anywhere.
Good luck.
What are the good hotels in Zurich?
There's the Ritz, the Palace, the Carillon du Lac.
Carillon du Lac.
-The Carillon du Lac. -lt's very exclusive.
-lf you don't have-- -Take me there.
lt's your money.
lt's good to see you again, sir.
lt's been a while.
Yes, l guess it has.
Do me a favor, l sprained my hand. Could you fill in the registration?
lt's not a problem, sir.
Want me to call the hotel doctor?
Not now. Perhaps later.
l do need your signature, and your passport.
Something wrong, Mr. Bourne?
My passport's at the bottom of my case. l'll get it later.
Yes, sir. l'll get the key.
l assume you'll require the usual conditions for your stay with us?
Perhaps. How did you understand them?
Whoever phones for you is to be told you're out, and you're informed of it.
The one exception is your employer, Treadstone 71 . Correct?
l won't forget your efficiency.
You've always been more than generous.
l'm sick of all this, Peter. l want to get married, have a baby. . .
. . .learn to play the saxophone.
You always say that before you give a paper. You'll be a star.
-And you won't be here. -Marie.
-Thank you. -l don't want to leave. l have to.
France expelled three Cuban diplomats in connection...
... with the search for a man called Carlos...
...believed to have assassinated U.S. Ambassador Howard Leland.
Ambassador Leland was shot through the throat by a gunman with a rifle.
lf there's nothing for Treadstone 71 , try Treadstone without the number.
--irrespective of political ideology.
Did you try ''company'' or ''corp. '' or ''inc. ''?
What about two words, separated? ''Tread Stone. ''
--and John Phillips, British member of Parliament.
There must be a listing, operator.
How about the boroughs outside Manhattan? Queens? Brooklyn?
l don't know what sort of business they're in. Sorry.
lnvestment banking? Securities?
Look, could l persuade you to check the unlisted book?
ls the number there? You don't have to say the actual--
Don't tell me you don't have access. l know you do.
l understand. Thank you very much for your trouble.
l have no new evidence.
Wait. . . .
l know you.
We've increased security at our foreign embassies...
... we're cooperating with lnterpol and the French authorities...
...in a worldwide search for Carlos.
You were responsible for the ambassador.
How do you feel about his assassination?
Who are you? Why do l know you?
l feel a sense of outrage and deep personal loss.
He was a close friend.
When we find Carlos, and we will...
...l intend to question him myself. That's all l can say. Thank you.
This is Nigel Colman, reporting from Nice.
Carlos.
May l help you, sir?
l have an account here.
lf you'll tell me the number of zeros in your account. . .
. . .l can direct you to the correct office.
Three zeros.
Take the elevator, sir. Fifth floor.
Thank you.
Three-zero account on the way to the fifth floor.
My name is Fritz Koenig, sir.
Three-zero accounts rarely come in without an appointment.
l'm afraid you startled our man in the lobby.
l'm in a hurry.
Of course. lf you'll sign in.
Your signature.
Of course.
Would you wait in here, please?
Where are you taking that?
-To Signature Verifications. -l'm in a great hurry.
l'm following procedures you yourself requested, sir.
l've got his fingerprints.
We're ready down here.
Walter Apfel, at your service.
Mr. Apfel.
l trust you're enjoying Zurich?
Very much. My room overlooks the lake.
Shall l unlock this or would you prefer to do it?
Please. Open it.
Oh, no, sir. l can unlock it for you, but the opening is your responsibility.
-lf you're listed, it's not my position-- -Of course.
l need to transfer funds out of the country. Can you do that for me?
-For that l do need to know your name. -Fine.
Open the box. Let's get to it.
ls something wrong?
Everything's fine.
My name is Jason Bourne. Jason.
My privilege to know you. Your identity will remain confidential.
You have the word of an officer.
Thank you, Mr. Apfel.
Transfer funds to the Bank of France in Port Noir. . .
. . .to Dr. Geoffrey Washburn.
All right. What amount?
A million dollars.
Fine.
Anything further, sir?
Seven million dollars transferred to my account--
Where, sir?
Paris.
Very good, sir. Which bank?
You have an affiliated bank in Paris?
Yes, of course. The Valois Bank of Paris.
The Valois Bank, yes.
And 300,000 francs in cash now. The balance to remain here.
The paperwork won't take a minute, sir. l'll be back with your money.
-Your money, sir. -Thank you.
Anytime we can help, it is our pleasure.
Thank you.
Goodbye.
How many in the lobby?
How many?
Just one. Outside in a silver Mercedes.
Excuse me, is this a fire drill?
Herr Stossel, this is Mr. Bourne in 402.
l'd like my bill prepared immediately, and a taxi.
l'm on my way down.
Your taxi's waiting, sir. And your bill, in francs and dollars.
There may be messages. Keep them for me.
Very good, sir.
Could you send this? lf they reply, l'll be at the lecture.
Certainly, doctor. Thank you.
May l accompany you?
-You're into interest rates? -Deeply.
-Do l know you? -l applauded loudest for your paper.
Can we have the next slide, please?
-Let me go. What are you doing? -ls there another way out?
How should l know?
Do as l say.
This graph shows yield curve slopes and inflation rates for Germany. . .
. . .and her principal economic partners, France, ltaly and the Netherlands.
Since the inception of the EMS in 1 979. . .
. . .there has been a marked convergence of inflation rates. . .
. . .proxied by the yield curve slopes.
This is due to the gradual tightening of monetary policies. . .
. . .with France, ltaly and Netherlands tending to have. . .
. . .tighter monetary policies than Germany.
This supports our view that a deflationary bias has been imposed. . .
. . .on the rest of Europe by Germany via the EMS.
Next slide, please.
Here! What's going on?
This way.
Shut up! l said, shut up!
That hurts!
-My wrist is broken! -No, it isn't.
-Let me go! -As soon as we get to your car.
-l don't have a car! -l saw your keys, doctor.
My car is at the Ottawa Airport--
Your car.
They'll kill you too.
Now, drive!
Gun it!
Turn right onto the bridge. Come on!
Where are we going?
Tell me!
A restaurant. The Drei Alpenhauser.
-Please let me go. l can't-- -l'll let you go at the restaurant.
-What's at the restaurant? Why are--? -l don't know. Now, turn around!
Walk into the restaurant with me.
You said to drive you here.
You said if l drove you here, you'd let me go.
-l won't do it again. -Yes, you will.
When you think you can make it, you'll try.
Believe me, you won't make it.
l won't try, if l know you'll let me go.
-l will. -When?
When it no longer matters what you say or do.
l don't want to hurt you.
Comb your hair. lt's a mess.
lf you make trouble inside, somebody's bound to get hurt.
lt'll be your responsibility.
-Don't look at him. -Who is it?
l don't know. Don't let him see your face.
Why are you doing this to me?
l enjoy the food here.
l have a family. They will kill my wife and children.
l gave you the envelope. l did what l was told. No more, no less.
As you yourself instructed.
You were paid?
l told them nothing.
Then why are you afraid? l'm just a tourist having dinner.
You cannot, please. You must leave.
Tell me what you know. Quickly!
Others may have talked. The police--
The police have been here. lnterpol, looking for you, mein Herr.
And others who would stop at nothing. They know this place. Please.
l have told them l haven't seen you.
They'll kill me--
You're exaggerating.
Don't do this to me.
Why are you so afraid?
Word went out a month ago that you were not dead.
Anyone with any information should call a number set up by lnterpol.
Sizable rewards offered by several countries.
-lnformation to be held in confidence. -And you needed the money.
No, no, God. . . .
You've got to believe me. On my life, l swear l didn't--
Who did?
Chernak, maybe.
Chernak?
The envelope came from him to me to you. You know him.
-He'd never say anything. -Where is he?
-Where he always is. -Don't play games with me.
-Lowenstrasse, of course. -What number?
-lt hasn't changed. -Answer the question.
Thirty-seven.
-What was in the envelope? -l didn't look. l don't know.
l will shoot you if you lie again.
-Money? -l suppose. Yes. l didn't take any.
-lf there was some discrepancy-- -What was the money for?
Why are you doing this to me?
l read the papers, watch the news on TV.
lt was front page in three languages.
The assassination of Ambassador Leland.
-Come on. -l don't want to go in there.
-You're coming in. -l don't want to--
l don't want to be a witness. Please! Don't make me.
l won't go to the police.
When we get up there, l'll knock. lf they open, leave it to me. lf not. . .
. . .say you're from Drei Alpenhauser.
l have a message for you, Mr. Chernak.
-Who are you? What is it? -Alpenhauser.
lt's from a friend at Drei Alpenhauser.
-l don't know anybody there. -Come on.
ls there another Chernak? He said 37 Lowenstrasse.
-Put it under the door. -ldentification.
l can't. lt isn't written down.
l need to make a visual identification.
No!
You.
What do you want?
Stay in here. Keep quiet.
You swore the last one was the end of it. l can't risk it anymore.
Who gave you the envelope for our Alpenhauser friend?
The messenger.
-Where did it come from? -How would l know?
lt arrived in a box, as usual. l unpacked it, sent it on.
You were the one who set up the system. Why are you asking me?
You said it was too dangerous to come here.
-Money was missing. -Then it wasn't paid!
l never open the envelopes! You know that!
Missing? l don't believe you.
You wouldn't have taken the assignment. And you took it.
-What assignment? -Why are you really here?
Who's the girl?
They'll pay for your corpse.
Come on! We gotta get out of here.
Don't try. Don't try.
-You killed him, didn't you? -He was trying to kill me. Get in.
You killed that poor helpless man.
Drive!
Where? You haven't said where.
A safe place. A hiding place.
Red door.
Boarding house.
Stepdeckstrasse.
Help me! Somebody!
Please!
That's the woman.
Help. Help me. A man's been shot.
-lt's okay, we're undercover police. -Police?
He kept hitting me. And he killed that poor man in the wheelchair.
Herr Koenig, Dr. St. Jacques.
She was with him. He killed Chernak.
Yes! He killed that man! He's wounded.
-How badly? -l don't know. He fainted.
His head was bleeding. Who is he?
He goes by many names. Many disguises.
He is a chameleon.
But as you have seen, he's a killer. A brutal killer.
Then he is an assassin?
Yes.
Did he say how he planned to leave or where he planned to go?
No. No. He was almost incoherent. He--
Think, now. He said nothing?
Wait. He was mumbling something. A street name.
-lt was. . . . Step-- -Stepdeckstrasse?
That's it. A boarding house with a red door.
l'm all right.
You again. You're nothing but trouble. Go away!
You said you wouldn't be back.
Do you want a doctor?
Any instructions?
The assassination of Ambassador Leland!
And you took the assignment.
You killed that poor helpless man!
He was trying to kill me!
Does the name Carlos mean anything to you?
l intend to question Carlos myself.
They'll pay for your corpse!
Mr. Bourne. Finally.
That's him!
My God. You're with them?
My compliments.
-These are the police. -Better and better.
-The conditions were right? -God. Take me back to the hotel.
-Take her to the river. Kill her. -Wait--
Scream! Loud!
Stupid.
Whatever you're paid, l'll double it.
-You were at the bank. You know l can. -l wouldn't take your money.
Money's money. Why not?
Are you serious? Wealth is relative to the time you have to enjoy it.
l wouldn't last five minutes. Put him in the car.
Break his fingers.
Stop the car!
He said, ''Take her to the river. ''
Get out!
Bourne.
-Get up. -Get away.
Get in the car and go.
They'll be back, he'll kill you. He'll kill you. What are you doing?
Get up.
-Get in that car and go like hell. -No!
He tried to rape me. You saved me. Now, get up!
Oh, my God.
l can't do this. l don't know how to do this.
l'm not thinking.
God, God, God, come on.
Help me. Help me.
Damn you! l hope that hurt.
Who is it?
Wait. Thank you very much.
Where are we?
Regensburg. Thirty miles west of Zurich.
How did we get here?
l made a decision.
One of the more difficult ones l've made in my life.
Perhaps because l nearly lost my life.
But because of what you did, l decided to help you.
But only for a while. For a few hours. To help you get away.
-Knowing what l am? -l don't know what you are.
All l know is that you came back and saved my life.
You're not afraid of me anymore?
Of course l am. l saw you kill. You're good at it. lt was horrible.
But you saved my life.
Are you that naive?
Not really. l have your gun.
The man at the hotel called you ''doctor. '' What sort?
Of economics, not medicine.
l work for the Canadian Treasury Board.
Why was there no article about the abduction of the beautiful economist?
-How did you manage that? -l called a friend.
One that wasn't at the lecture.
Told her l was okay, to field questions.
That l was having an affair and l'd be back in a couple of days.
That's all? You shake your head?
-l saved your life! -You want a medal?
-The truth. -l don't know the truth.
-You can do better than that. -Not much.
They say my name is Jason Bourne.
They? What are you talking about?
My life began a month ago. . .
. . .when l washed up on the beach in the fishing village of Port Noir.
l have no memory of a past, doctor.
l have no idea who l am, what l am, why l'm. . .
. . .so good at killing.
Or who the people are trying to kill me.
Do you really expect me to believe that?
No.
No, l don't.
l can't believe it myself. How could l expect you to?
The insanity is. . .
. . .it's the truth.
When the fat man came over, you told me to turn away.
-There was no point in being identified. -There wasn't.
-That's not the reasoning of-- -An assassin?
l appreciate what you're trying to do. Use your brain.
Money was delivered to me for assignments taken. l have an account. . .
. . .with 1 5 million dollars. Where did that come from? Treadstone 71 ?
Well, who are they? Why can't l find them?
What does a man like me, with the skills l have, do to get that money?
What occurs to you?
-Everything's in one hell of a mess. -Be serious.
-ls there anything familiar? -Mediterranean power struggles. . .
. . .the Mideast problems, arms deals. l know more than what's in the papers.
-Maybe you're with Foreign Service. -Knowing small arms and martial arts?
And a numbered bank account?
Think of traveling. Do you see trains, cars, planes?
All of them.
And who meets you? Are there faces? People?
Streets.
-Streets? Why streets? -l don't know.
Faces in shadows, featureless, meet me in streets.
-No offices? Business offices? -Sometimes. Not usually.
-These faces, are they men or women? -Men, mostly.
-What do you talk about? -l don't know.
There aren't voices. There aren't any words.
But you had appointments. How did you know where to go, who to see?
-Cables. Telephone calls. -From?
-l don't know. -You had to call them back.
-Was it Treadstone? Think. -l can't.
No. They'd reach me. l never called them.
What comes to mind when you think of money? The first impression.
Jason?
Death.
Marie.
Buy yourself a ticket back to Canada.
Back to Peter.
Oh, Peter.
l'd forgotten it was you behind us in the hotel lobby.
You misunderstood.
You're going home tomorrow.
You'll learn to play the saxophone, marry Peter and forget this.
Peter is nothing more than my boss and an old friend from school.
At one point in the beginning, l thought, well, maybe. . . .
But he turned out to be deeply committed to helpless women.
So am l.
-l'm coming to Paris with you. -You're not.
Last time l went near that account, half of Zurich tried to kill me.
That's why you need me. l know banks. l know the right questions to ask.
Marie, l'm not going to drag you into this further. l don't want you hurt.
l have rank in the Treasury Department of Canada.
Clearance, embassy protection. That can be helpful.
l already called Peter to get him to find out about your Treadstone.
You shouldn't have done that.
l want to help you, Jason.
First it was because you saved me from rape, saved my life, l owed you.
But then. . . .
You're not a killer. You can kill, but you're not a killer.
That's a distinction l happen to believe in more than you.
Please let me help you.
Put your arms around me, Jason.
l need to be held. Even if it's only for tonight.
We need to forget the violence.
What are you thinking?
l keep spinning around in the wind. . .
. . .over and over.
There's fire.
lmages.
A woman, a child.
A beautiful child.
Burning.
l feel responsible.
l may not be able to live with what's out there. l mean that.
Jason, even at the beginning when you were very rough. . .
. . .even then there was something in your eyes, some. . .
. . .l don't know, reluctance.
You couldn't have hurt them. lt's impossible.
Not you.
All right. Thank you, Peter.
-What did he say? -Treadstone is dangerous.
-lt's a secret group in the ClA. -The ClA? ls he sure about this?
-He called a friend with the NSC. -My God!
He was furious Peter knew about the existence of Treadstone.
-He's flying to Canada to debrief him. -Now do you want to go back?
Ask me after the bank.
lt won't be open for an hour. Let's go see if the reports. . .
. . .on Ambassador Leland's assassination jog my memory.
-Wait. -What?
-Look. -Oh, my God, that's you.
l was there. l know these people.
Ambassador Leland.
U.S. Naval lntelligence, a house in McLean, Virginia.
And this man, l saw him on television in Zurich.
l know him, but l can't remember his name.
He's important, Marie.
Somehow, close to me.
What's his name?
Jason, you're both not identified.
lt's the funeral for the son of General Villiers.
Carlos again.
Leland was shot in the throat.
''Carlos' signature is to shoot his victims in the throat. ''
l shot Chernak in the throat.
Come on.
Are your days comfortable?
The days, they draw to an end.
But they are made comfortable.
Good.
What is the report from Zurich?
Bourne has disappeared.
They think the woman is with him.
Disappeared?
Where was Koenig?
-He has a dozen men. -Four of our men were killed.
Koenig says Bourne has sent the money to Paris.
He comes to me.
Have someone at the bank who can recognize him.
And if possible, take the woman first. And bring her to me.
Yes, Carlos.
This number is 46-78-2255.
Got it. Here we go.
Hello, l transferred a sizable amount and l'd like to check if it's there.
That would be in our Foreign Department, sir. l will connect you.
l transferred seven million dollars and l'm checking to see if it's there.
Can you help me or are you going to transfer me? Who are you?
l can help. l'm Pierre D'Armacourt, an officer of the bank.
-Give me your name. -Bourne. B-O-U-R-N-E. Jason Bourne.
The money came from a bank in Zurich. Did you get it?
All transactions are confidential. We can 't tell you over the phone.
l'm leaving Paris and l--
-Could you come by the bank? -Yes, l guess l'll have to.
Where's your office? l need to see the papers.
My office is at the rear, first floor, on the right--
-Hello? Damn phones. -l am here, Monsieur Bourne.
Hello? l can't hear anything.
His name is D'Armacourt.
His office is main floor rear, through on the right.
