Previously on Covert Affairs...
I hope you take my candidacy seriously, Senator Pierson.
I'm sorry, but, um, I'm going to have to recuse myself...
My name is Arthur Campbell.
I need a lawyer, Miss Manning.
Why is Henry Wilcox meeting with an A.L.C. terrorist?
Turns out Calder's not working for Henry after all.
If you sabotage that helicopter...
I'm not gonna sabotage anything.
Teo's gonna do that.
[Missile fires]
- Teo, come on! - [Groans]
[Gunshot]
Teo?
He's lost a lot of blood. [Groans]
Prep room three for surgery, stat.
All right.
Do you know that Henry laid over in Frankfurt
for 36 hours on his way to Copenhagen?
He must be meeting someone.
I'm gonna find out who.
I'm sorry.
[Overlapping chatter]
These allegations against my client are patently false.
Arthur Campbell is a patriot and a hero.
[Overlapping chatter]
We have limited time.
Arthur's being detained for questioning by Justice.
The A.G. is out for blood on this one.
It wasn't easy, but I got you ten minutes.
Go.
Arthur.
[Door closes]
I love you.
I love you too.
I'm so sorry about Teo.
We're gonna get you home.
You briefed state?
By the time I got there, the secretary was stonewalling.
News that Teo was your son
had already reached the Truman building.
It's not good, Arthur. The barbarians are at the gate.
Did you find Annie?
She left the base at Schweinfurt.
Not yet.
BND and Interpol are combing Germany looking for her.
I've told them it's an agency mission, but they won't listen.
Copenhagen was too big an event.
Now exfiltration's your best bet.
Get her home.
Exfil would be a good idea
if she'd answer our communication protocols.
Well, she's scared and determined.
She's Annie.
Bianca tells me Justice is preparing legal action.
She's advising me to take a plea.
Arthur--
It'd keep the blowback off of you.
I can't have you in jeopardy.
Our child deserves at least one parent out of prison.
He is going to have both.
You said "he."
I did.
[Sighs] What happened to ten minutes?
What is it?
Senator Pierson's in my office.
She's demanding a private meeting.
[Folds letter]
The barbarians are in the castle.

[Sirens approaching]
[Phone ringing]
International caller, 37-9376-242.
Hey, I'll call you right back.
Hey.
- I need a way into Frankfurt. - Where are you?
Uh, in the main-Spessart district just west of Karlstadt.
- You found a car. - Found is one way to put it.
I guess you could say I also found this phone.
Well, you're going to have to keep that up.
No above-board transactions, limited interactions.
Burner phones on a one-and-done basis,
and don't call me my personal cell phone anymore.
If it isn't tapped already, it will be soon.
I got it.
The authorities are gonna be looking for you on the autobahn,
so stick to Strasse 2035 going west.
It'll take you through Lohr and Blankenbach,
and when you get into the inner city,
ditch the car at the Altstadt.
You're gonna need a full turnover once you get there.
Clothes, phone, wash your money.
Any idea what Henry was doing
for the 36 hours he was in Frankfurt?
Uh, your guess is as good as mine.
I got to tell you, Annie,
going after Henry while being a fugitive is--
I know what you're gonna say.
It's ill-advised,
but I can't let him get away with killing Teo.
I was gonna say badass.
Thanks, Auggie.
All right, when I get into the office,
I'll pull some favors,
requisition the current Frankfurt CCTV feeds.
Some of the best in the world.
Henry's probably laying low, but we might get lucky.
You're right.
We are good at this.
You're damn straight.
Now check in from Frankfurt, and get rid of that phone.
Good morning, Senator.
My aide said it was urgent. Well, thank you for sparing us
both the Kabuki theatre of asking why it was urgent.
- Why are you here, Claire? - The Teo Bragir affair.
Copenhagen.
The intelligence committee obviously has
serious misgivings about Arthur and his actions.
They don't even know the details of his actions.
And you? What did you know?
How much? When?
What was your role in this whole sordid affair?
You know, you-- you authorized the transport
of a captured comrade of Teo Braga,
and he was promptly killed, so what was your agenda?
Do you want me to answer any of these questions,
or are you just here to experience
the pleasure of asking them?
[Laughs] Neither.
I'm here to tell you that I've been in contact with the DCI,
and you'll be relieved of your duties
until an inquest can be conducted.
If that's the DCI's decision,
then he can tell me himself.
Oh, he will, and if you think that another file
filled with photos can get you out of this mess,
well, you can forget it.
You know, I've come clean with my husband,
and my marriage is in tatters, but my morals are intact.
You know, sooner or later, everyone has to pay
for their sins, and for you,
Joan, that time is now.
Joan?
The DCI would like to see you.
I know.
Okay, listen up, people.
We have a very fluid situation.
So here is where we are as of 8:24 a.m.
Joan Campbell has been relieved of her duties.
I'm addressing you because I've been assigned
as her interim replacement.
The most pressing matter for all of us is operative Annie Walker.
She's off the grid, and European authorities want her arrested.
We have to assume there's more to the story,
but we need to get her out first.
I'm putting Calder Michaels in charge
of a rapid deployment team,
which he'll meet up with in Germany.
That's all for now.
Let's go, people.
Get this upstairs immediately.
Calder, we need to talk.
Aren't you under review?
I am. They told me to stand by.
I'm standing by.
Come here.
What do you want?
I need you to hold off on that exfil.
So you want me to not go get Annie?
Just for six hours.
She needs time to get something done on the ground.
Okay. So where is she?
Obviously, if you know she needs time,
you've been talking to her.
I have, but I don't want you to get in the way of her Op.
Oh, so it's an Op now.
Tell me about it. Offbook.
Something only Annie can do.
I got a plane to catch.
Calder, give her the time.
You don't get it, Auggie, so let me spell it out to you.
You're asking for trust but offering nothing in return.
You're lucky you're just under review,
'cause Joan is out of the building--
Wait, Joan's what?
As far as Copenhagen goes, you and I both know
that there's no way Annie should be running an operation.
Whether you like it or not,
I'm Annie's best friend right now.
Joan. I just heard.
DCI gave me 15 minutes to clean out of my office.
My codeword clearance passcodes
have already been taken off-line.
- This is a witch hunt. - Henry's master plan.
The clock is ticking.
It's only a matter of time before they find my alias
on Teo's account.
But you are still here, and Annie needs you,
now more than ever.
You know, when we sign up here, we take an oath of fidelity,
an oath of honor.
We know we're gonna give up a lot,
maybe even our lives, and we accept that,
but in a pinch, is the Agency
ever really there for us in return?
[Thud]
Joan? Hey.
Whoa! Joan.
Joan? Joan, are you okay?
Damn it. [Heart beating]

Due to your swollen hands and high blood pressure,
you're most likely suffering from preeclampsia.
That's common among pregnant women, right?
It is, but we need to get her to a hospital.
- I'm going with you. - No.
You are staying here, Auggie. Joan-
Don't "Joan" me. Remember what we talked about.
Annie needs you. Okay.
Well, you need anything, you call me.
Okay.
I'll check in.
All right.
[Indistinct chatter]
[Distant siren blares]
Hey, man. How's Joan?
She'll be fine. Joan's tough.
Snack time's over.
I need to get a real-time scan going
on the full array of German PTZ domes.
We need a 36-hour backlog on Henry Wilcox in Frankfurt.
I want facial recognition,
I want passport control,
and I want any monetary forensics.
Um...
What? I don't hear any typing.
It's just some of the projects you had us do recently
have been a little risky.
And by that he means super risky, job-wise.
Yeah, you're right,
but I can't trust anyone else with this.
It's for Annie.
[Typing] You hear me typing now, right?
Hello, Arthur.
How the hell did you get in here?
You really should be asking yourself that question.
Leave now, Henry, before I hurt you.
Doesn't feel good being held against your will, does it?
You've always been imperious,
considered yourself above the law,
as if the rules didn't apply to you.
You were that way when you took Jai away from me,
and you're still that way.
But now there's nothing more you can take away from me.
I hope you realize that before you die trying.
I'm done talking with you, Henry.
Your actions have already spoken, loudly.
Good-bye, Arthur.
[Electronic beeping]
Nothing.
- What do we got? - Frankfurt is wired.
CCTV cameras on almost every block, and all of them work,
but but Henry's smart.
He knows where they're placed. [Beep]
- What is that? - It's a full 180 radial
of a street called Sieberstrasse.
- Well, what do you see? - Jackpot!
Henry Wilcox, leaving the restaurant Sevres,
uh, two days ago, 8:30 p.m.
Hello. [Speaking German]
Mingus, you there?
Yeah. We have a mutual friend in common.
He was in your neck of the woods two days ago.
Really? Lmfao.
Small world.
What was he doing? Grabbing a bite.
Sevres was the name of the spot.
Maybe I'll check it out too.
Do they have a happy hour?
Not sure. Joan had to step out for a bit.
Read between the lines.
Got it.
This has been an awesome conversation.
Let's do it again soon.
I'd love that.
[Speaking German]
Hi brother. No marching band welcome.
This isn't exactly a marching band situation, Gary.
It's okay. It's more personal.
- You know the operative? - Yeah, she's in my division.
I need her back quickly.
And you said you wouldn't go soft when you went back to HQ.
This isn't me being soft.
This is me trying to get to the truth, and I can't get that
until I get Annie Walker back on American soil.
- Okay. - I personally requested you
to lead this exfil, not because of our longstanding friendship,
but because I believe you were the guy who could get it done.
Can you get the job done for me, Gary?
I think you know the answer to that question.
- All right. - I've placed six two-man SUVs
at multiple extraction points down four main auto-routes.
Walker's gonna recognize a protocol pattern.
Once we make contact, we fall into escort
all the way back to Ramstein.
Have your girl on the same damn plane you flew in on.
No.
We're going into Frankfurt, center city.
We'll fan out on foot from there.
My "girl," as you call her, seems to be staying in town.
I want to find out why.
[Speaking German]
Ah, I-I-I don't speak German.
We are closed. We open for dinner at 6:30,
but you need a reservation.
We're fully committed this evening.
I actually wanted to speak to you
about something else.
Um, this--this is a picture of my father.
I think he ate here a few nights ago.
It's not our policy to discuss patrons.
No, um-- I don't know how to say this.
I think he's having an affair, and he told my mother
that he was having a business dinner here.
I wonder if you remember anything about who he ate with,
just to put my mind at ease?
Hmm, you're right.
He was here a few nights ago.
He met with a woman. I'm sorry.
It seemed romantic.
He ordered a bottle of, uh, Weingut Keller Riesling,
and he brought his own flowers.
Okay. Thank you.
Uh, if it's any consolation, the woman didn't stay long.
She talked very briefly with him,
but things didn't... seem good,
and she left without ever sitting down.
Hmm, maybe the affair's over. Maybe.
He was there two nights ago with a woman.
Flowers and wine.
What do you think that's about?
Probably a set protocol
with a security consultant or a cutout.
It takes more than one person,
even if it is Henry Wilcox, to pull off an attack like that.
The flowers could have meant Copenhagen was a go.
Speaking of which, any word on our red-haired friend?
Nothing yet.
Scanned the HSTL and GAD,
spoke with other spy services.
There's guys that fit that description,
but they're all accounted for.
None have flagged in Western Europe.
TAC team Omega leader.
Auggie, I've been made.
I've located the target.
I got to go.
August-Sieberstrasse and Grunebergweg.
Copy.
Target not receptive to approach.
[Speaking German]
[Indistinct chatter]
[Bell ringing]
TAC team Omega leader.
Target lost.
- Deric? - Hey, Gary.
I didn't know Agency Special Ops was in on this.
Need to know. [Gunshots]
Gary, report.
Gary, report!
Gary!
Status report.
We have a rapidly escalating situation.
Gary Probert, our exfil team point-man,
has been found shot dead in Frankfurt central.
He'd been in pursuit of operative Walker.
We've changed operative Walker's classification.
She's now to be treated as a rogue operative.
Our exfil team has been instructed
to assume a tactical approach.
For now that's all.
Annie a rogue operative? Are you kidding?
I suggest you check that tone, Anderson.
You are jumping to conclusions and abandoning one of our own
just when she needs us most.
We don't even know Annie's side of the story.
That's because she's not telling us
her side of the story.
Miss Walker's behavior has been baffling.
She's breaking rules and running from our help
and apparently gunning down one of her fellow operatives,
and the only question is why?
What the hell is he doing here?
Senator Pierson talked to the DCI.
She felt Henry's intimate knowledge
of the events in Copenhagen would be an advantage,
so we brought him on as a green badge.
Lexington Global Consulting.
- I want him gone. - This isn't your DPD, Auggie.
This is insane.
Henry is the reason that we're in this.
- How so? - If you're talking
about my knowledge of Arthur Campbell
and his terrorist son Teo Braga
before the events in Copenhagen, then, yes,
I did have a file which said as much,
which I handed to Annie.
You played her.
No. No.
She was the one playing me.
I listened to her counsel,
and I offered her a job in my firm.
Well, I never in my wildest dreams
would have thought her capable of treason.
I mistook her for a patriot.
Auggie! Security!
How's it feel?
Let him go, or the SPOs will shoot you down right now.
- You're done. - [Chokes]
Get him out of here. Go!
Get him out!
Are you okay? Yeah. Mmhmm.
I'm fine.
He's just--
he's just a kid. He has to cool down.
Listen up .
Frankfurt polizei just got eyes on her.
They're directing all cars.
We are getting to Walker first.
Let's go. Let's go. [Engine turns over]
Go!
[Sirens blare]
[Radio chatter]
She's two blocks away. Let's push it.
Go, go, go, go! [Hits dashboard]
[Tires screech]
Stop!
Go! Go right here. Go right here!
Go, go!
[Tires screech]
Hey! [Shouting in German]
Hey! Easy, easy!
[All speaking German]
Joan, how you feeling?
- I'm about as good as I look. - Well, you look fantastic.
- [Laughs] - Listen, I don't want to cause
you any more undue stress, but Henry's back in the building,
and on a more personal note, they booted me out too.
I kind of went ballistic on Henry.
Did you?
Good for you. Yeah, we'll see.
In what capacity could Henry possibly be in the CIA?
Officially? Consulting on Annie's situation,
per the recommendation of Senator Pierson.
Unofficially, making Annie's life miserable.
Okay, we got to work this problem together.
Does she have anything
on the 36 hours Henry was in Frankfurt?
Henry visited a fancy restaurant and met briefly
with a middle-aged woman.
- Mm-hmm? - These are security captures
of all the women who came in and out
of that restaurant that night.
Right.
Well, this is her. You sure?
That was fast. I am sure
because that is Jai's mom Sana.
What's she doing in Frankfurt?
She works for a company that does a lot of business
on the European exchange.
So what is Henry doing meeting with his ex-wife
the night before a terrorist attack he perpetrated?
Do you think she was involved?
Maybe. Maybe not.
Auggie, you need to get one of your NSA buddies to tag
phone locator records for, so we can get a call history.
Okay. I'll do it, but, Joan?
The doctor said-- I know what the doctor said.
The doctor said, "don't go into my office,"
not turn off my brain,
and Annie needs us, right? She does.
Okay, so why are you still here?
Auggie, report in.
We might both be fired, but you still work for me.
Yes, ma'am.
[Telephone rings] Hey.
Hey, it's me.
Well, you're getting crafty.
Your phone has a Hamburg axis-router.
Yeah. I pinched it off an eight year-old
getting off a tourist bus.
She was too young to have a cell phone anyway.
[Laughs] Listen, we don't have a lot of time.
In a nutshell, Henry has Braithwaite's ear
inside Langley, and I'm out of the building.
- That's a big nutshell. - It gets bigger.
The woman Henry was meeting with was his ex-wife Sana.
Travel records verify it.
Her company has a seat on the exchange
in the Commerzbank building.
I thought they divorced years ago.
Yeah, well, maybe once you really love someone,
those bonds never go away.
You think that's true?
What do you mean, we don't have much time?
Annie, there's a CIA operative down in Frankfurt.
He came with a team led by Calder, who's on the ground.
Down? Who do they thi--
they think I killed him?
Yeah, but if you can find Calder,
maybe he can still get you out.
Uh, no.
I'm gonna find Jai's mom, and I'm gonna turn her
and use her as leverage against Henry.
Annie, think this through.
Henry came after all of us because we didn't protect Jai.
If you go near his ex-wife, he'll kill you.
Yeah, well, maybe it's time to give him what he wants.
What do you mean?
I'm gonna take myself off the game board.
Annie, please don't do this.
You'd be working without CIA protection, without me.
Henry has taken enough.
He took Arthur, Teo, and us.
It's time to strike back, and it's time to end this.
Even if this works, you may not be able to come back, ever.
I know, and there are things I feel I still want to say to you.
Then come home and say them.
There's always another way.
Find Calder.
[Cell phone rings]
- Calder Michaels. - We need to talk.
If I give you a location, will you come alone?
Yes.
Walker?
I need your help.
You repeatedly withheld information from me,
consorted with a known terrorist,
and killed one of my men.
I didn't kill anybody.
All right. Make it quick.
My guys don't hear from me in five minutes,
they'll be all over your ass.
You know that something isn't right at Langley,
and Henry Wilcox has something to do with it.
If you take me in, it will be the end of my career,
and we will never find out the truth.
When we first met, you said we could be
friends, enemies, or just remain spies
for the same great country.
- That's right. - I am asking you to make
that decision, right here, now.
The only way you're leaving Frankfurt is with me
or in a body bag.
That's what I'm counting on.
Nothing.
She got away.
She dropped this, though.
Security key for Commerzbank.
It's down there. We got this.
That Commerzbank tower is the seat
of the European futures exchange.
Walker may be planning an even more serious attack.
Agreed.
Calder, take up strategic position around the building.
Use deadly force if necessary.
Understood.
Okay, so they told us to do what we were gonna do anyway.
Let's move out.
"Dear Danielle,
"I know we haven't had a chance to talk in a while.
"We may not get a chance to speak again,
"so I'm asking you to think about the times
"when dad had us look for the evening star, Venus,
"when it appeared in the west just after sunset.
"No matter where we lived all over the world, there was Venus.
"It was our star.
"Now I'm asking you to think of me
"whenever you see Venus in the sky.
"No matter where you are,
"I'll be there.
I love you, Danielle."
- Yeah? - Yeah.
Okay, we have a visual at the Commerzbank tower.
Eurex mainframe is on the 32nd floor.
That's got to be her target.
She could do the most damage if she takes that out.
Alert your team.
TAC team Omega leader.
Target has entered the building.
32nd floor presumed target.
Team leader positioned on 32nd floor.
I have tactical advantage
and men on bracketing floors
in case the target throws a curve.
[Elevator dings]
She's in the middle elevator on the western bank.
Roger. Going radio silent.
Come on, come on.
[Siren wails in distance]
[Cell phone ringing]
No, Annie.
- International caller-- - Not this phone.
She's called Auggie Anderson's personal cell.
Give us audio from the tap on Anderson.
Annie, you don't have to do this.
I'm sorry, Auggie.
This is Henry Wilcox's fault, not yours.
He knows we're onto her.
I should never have read you in that morning in bed.
I should have just said I love you.
I love you too. Come home.
- I can't. - Annie.
It's too late for heart-to-hearts.
- No, Annie-- - Good-bye, Auggie.
Annie!
Operative Walker is dead.
I repeat, Annie Walker is dead.
It had to be done.
[Sighs]
[Sirens wailing]
[Engine turns over]
[Gasps]
You look terrible.
[Coughs] I feel terrible.
Here. Drink this.
[Coughing]
[Panting]
We're here alone.
It worked?
After all the times we've had, how could you have any doubt?
I never had any doubt.
I trust you with my life.
Clearly.
It worked.
So you got a change of clothes, money, a temp I.D.
until you cement the new one, and a Pesek Zman.
A what?
It's Israeli chocolate.
Oh.
And this is the Mossad file for Sana Wilcox.
Mossad? I thought you quit the Mossad.
Why would you ever think that, neshama?
I bet you never even got on a boat, did you?
I didn't even get out of Europe.
Mossad's not very big on vacations.
So is this really the end of Annie Walker?
Yes.
Then it gives me great pleasure to be the last one
to ever tell you this.
You're an amazing woman, Annie.
I can't thank you enough.
Thank me next time. Whoever you'll be.
Go.
Good-bye, Annie.
