"Previously on Covert Affairs..." "Griffin Cole is his name." "He's ex-CIA." "Griffin Cole now works for this guy." "Mossad is using us to spy on Khalid, I'm sorry." "We believe he's using a series of charities as terror fronts." "Khalid is dating an American." "If I can turn her, I think she can help us track him." "And if this fails, we'll both be testifying before Congress." "The photos were doctored." "Al Masri was never at the compound." "So we launched a drone strike based on faulty intel." " Mossad played us." " No, Eyal played you." " Auggie?" " You said you wanted to know when the storm clouds were gathering." "Well, they're gathering." " So the photo" " Definitely doctored." "It's all hands on deck now." "Good find, by the way." "I don't think it's quite time for celebration." "Listen, if anybody asks, I'm on my way in." "I just need to make a quick stop first." " Hey." "I'm with" " I know." " I brought you coffee." " I already got one." "Megan?" "It's Annie." "The view's not bad." "I mean, I've definitely seen worse." "I haven't lived in a place this devoid of character since I first moved to D.C. it's depressing." "I can assure you, you won't be here for long." "And for now, at least you're safe." "Yeah." "Safe and stuck." "In a box." "I sure hope it's all worth it, because right now, I'm not seeing the value proposition." "Is there anything else that you need?" "Well, I have to give up my job and my apartment and my boyfriend, so the answer is yes." "I need everything." "I'm sorry." "If there was any other way" "You didn't tell me that you needed to know where Khalid was so that you could drop a missile on him." "I know it's hard to accept..." "But right now this is the best and safest place for you." "Well, in that case..." "Next time, I'll take it black." "What?" "No." "Oh, we're reexamining everything." "Even non-related cables." "Hang on a second." "Did the DNA sweep of the drone site come in?" " Yes, sir." " And?" "None of the KIAs matched al Masri?" "Oh, Jesus." "Phil, we're drilling down." "I'll see you soon." "They want to see me in front of the senate intelligence committee by noon sharp." "Today?" "They've got recess starting tomorrow, and they insisted on trying to squeeze this in." "That doesn't give us time to prepare." "Well that's just how they like it." "They don't trust us with enough time to put together a story." "You need to buy more time." "Now you're just as naive as Annie." " Is everyone still upstairs?" " Everyone that'll fit." "That photo you uncovered set off quite the fire alarm." "It doesn't make any sense." "Why would Israel run up a false flag?" "In the short term, they get what?" "They get us to drone Khalid." "They don't have that capability." "Yeah, but think of what they lose." "Our cooperation, our trust, our money." "I can't believe Mossad would do that." " You mean Eyal." " I mean Mossad." "Someone had to doctor that intel." "Well if I hadn't forced it up the chain" "Hey, you think you're the first operative in this building to come up short?" "We've all been there." "You will bounce back from this." "I don't know." "You didn't see how bad it got with Joan last night." "And that was before the photo surfaced." "Joan." "Uh, what's the status?" "Is there anything I can do?" "Not just yet." "I can keep working on Khalid." "I can reach out to our assets in the F.A.T.A., and see if we can intercept him before he leaves Pakistan." "And I can forward her some key contacts through Khyber house." "You find him and then what?" "Regardless of what those photos say, if Khalid is funding terrorists, we still need to prove it." "No one at Langley is officially working on Khalid anymore." "Not until we get things squared up with the intelligence committee." "So what can I do?" "We curtailed your debrief post-Russia, and that was our mistake." "So you can go home, pack up, and report back to Bluebonnet by the end of the day." "And I don't think I need to say this, but I'm going to say it." "Do not contact Eyal Lavin." "Not until we get this cleared up." " Back to Bluebonnet." " You'll get through it." "Wow." "With all your quips and witty rejoinders, that's the best you can come up with?" "Mm." " Annie, don't you ever pick up?" " Eyal, now's not a good time." "Yeah, well, either for me." "Come on, pull over." "What?" "Where are you?" "Just look in your rear-view, will you?" "You know, normal people have no problem just calling." "I tried like a dozen times." "Okay, well, we're not allowed to bring our cell phones into Langley." "God forbid something urgent's happening." "Something urgent is happening." "I know." "I'm trying to tell you." "Did you know there was false intel in that file when you gave it to me?" "What?" "The photos of al Masri were doctored." "Now what else in that file is bogus?" "Everything in that file was solid." "Annie, I swear on my son Avi's life that I had no knowledge of this." "Well, we launched a drone strike for nothing." "Which makes what I'm about to tell you even worse." "We've intercepted calls to Khalid's contact in Riyadh." "We have it on good authority that he plans on exacting vengeance on the person who sold him out." "Megan." "I gotta go." "She might be in trouble." "Has anyone tried to get in here?" "We own the entire floor." "No one's stepped foot in this hallway besides you." "Megan?" "Open up, it's Annie." "Megan!" "Megan?"

"I had security download the feeds from the cameras on both the south- and east-facing streets." "Good." " What are you looking for?" " I'll know when I see it." "Don't tell me you miss me already?" "I need a favor." "Run down everything you can find me on the license plate" "Maryland-Golf-Charlie- Foxtrot-November 3-6-9." "This doesn't sound like information you need for a debriefing." "I'm sorry, Auggie." "I don't want to put you in the position to have to cover for me." "I just..." "I don't want to run anything else up the flagpole unless I know it's a flag." "I'm gonna regret this, aren't I?" " What are you doing here?" " I followed you." "Just because you drive off doesn't mean the conversation's over." "You want to tell me what's going on here?" "We were keeping Megan Carr here to protect her from retaliation." "And?" "And she's gone." "Oh, your CIA protection wasn't very protective." " Remember this guy?" " Khalid's attack dog." "Griffin Cole." "He was spotted outside the building at the same time Megan went missing." "This car was stolen, and we traced the LoJack to West Virginia." "Pendleton county." "I'll drive." "Megan's my asset." "This has nothing to do with you." "And Griffin Cole poisoned one of our assets." "He's still a Mossad target." "And I don't like unfinished business" "I'll drive." "We're on in three hours and this is all you've come up with?" "It's not good enough." "Okay, everybody, let's just take a little break." "Five minutes." "Go stretch your legs, get a coffee." "You wanna talk about what's really bothering you?" "What, the hearing's not enough?" "One of these days, they're gonna dunk me in the water and I won't come back up." "Arthur, you've been called to the Hill before, numerous times, to defend your actions, and I've never seen you rattled like this." "You're going somewhere with this." "Last night I told you I had a relapse." "Ten minutes later, we're dealing with this." "I think it's safe to say we left things unresolved." "I just wanted to give you the chance to talk it through, tell me how you were feeling." "Well, we need to talk." "But we've got these other matters to deal with first." "I'm sorry." "It's ok." "No, listen, the only reason we're scrambling for answers is because I missed something." "Arthur, you weren't the only one." "The whole agency was duped." "No, it is my responsibility to make sure the intel is airtight, and yesterday I failed to do so." "I overlooked something." "How can you be so sure?" "Because Mossad would never pull anything this risky without making sure it would work." "One doctored photo does not ensure a drone strike." "You know, it's hard to admit we might have been fooled by such a simple tactic, but what if we were?" "No, sorry." "I don't buy it." "All right, we're back in." "Let's go, go, go!" "Auggie, the senate intelligence committee has called Arthur onto the carpet." "He's gonna need some ammunition." "What kind of ammo?" "Well, there's no way Mossad is going to admit to anything underhanded in terms of those photographs, not without some concrete evidence that they falsified the intel." "Concrete, huh?" "Well, it doesn't need to stand up in a court of law." "Understood." "Considering a blind guy's in charge of a visual evidence investigation, chances of that are pretty slim." "What time is the hearing?" "Noon." "There's an AIPAC fund-raiser tonight, so Rivka's still in town." "I'm gonna try to pull her in here as soon as possible." "Time is of the essence." "I'll get right on it." " Is this it?" " That's what it says." "Since when do you carry a gun?" "Since I felt like I needed one." "It says it's in there." "Doesn't make much sense." "Taking this much effort to dump a car, unless" "Listen, why don't you wait in the car?" "I can handle this." "No." "If Megan's in there, I want to go in." "This doesn't feel right, does it?" "Wait!" "You okay?" "I'm fine, Auggie." "Surviving car bombs seems to be a special skill of mine." "Cole planting that explosive was a message." "He expected to be followed, and there's no telling what else he'll do to keep you off his trail." "The only message I'm getting is that he has Megan." " How do you know that?" " He had a picture of her." "And there were two bottles of water in the console." "Both were drunk from." "I'm gonna loop around with NSA to check the cell tower near where you found the car, see if Cole made any calls." "Thank you." " Yep." " Is that her?" " Yeah." " Put her on speaker." "Annie, you're on with Joan." "Hi, Joan." " Annie, are you all right?" " I'm fine." "But we--I promised to protect Megan, and I'm not gonna abandon her now." "Well, Dexter called it in." "We're mobilizing a team to track down Cole." "Mobilizing?" "I'm already here!" "I can't be that far behind." "Cole is on the run, and he is getting sloppy because he knows we're on his heels." "We?" "I'm with Eyal." "He was following me, and it would have cost too much time to try and lose him." "Joan, I am so close." "I can feel it." "You know what?" "Do whatever you want to do." "If you have something to say to me, you'd better say it now." "I know it hasn't always been easy to get her to see things a certain way." ""Hasn't always been easy"?" "Try impossible." "Maybe sending her back to Bluebonnet right now isn't the best idea." "She needs to finish her debrief, Auggie." "You and I both know that it's more than just a debrief." "It's a punishment." "At least that's how it feels to her." "Well she's right." "It is a punishment." "Joan, everything Annie's done since she got back from Russia hasn't been about bucking your authority." "She feels like she's lost your respect." "All she wants to do is win that back." "If you send her back to Bluebonnet right now, you'll just be pushing her further away." "The paperwork's already in the system." "It's out of my hands." "I don't believe that." "Rivka's on her way in." "I want the run-down on those photos in five minutes." "I'm on it." "You all right?" "Yeah, I'm fine." "You ever feel stuck?" "Like you can't move, no matter what direction you go in?" "From time to time, yeah." "What do you do about it?" "I come to west Virginia." "Well, it usually works." "What, you're not feeling it?" "What is it?" "Auggie pulled a number off a cell tower." "Cole has a brother five miles from here." "The al Masri photo was taken by satellite." "Our goal was to identify which one by determining which satellites were in the area at the time it was taken." "Well, how many were there?" "About 200 operational." "It's not a lot when you consider there are roughly 13,000 in orbit." "Some were ours, some were China's, but the majority belonged to various commercial entities, at least on paper." "There were 12 whose ownership we found to be suspect." "Why is that?" "Because you don't use an AES algorithm with a key length of 256 just to stop people from circumventing DiSEqC Protocols." "Thank you for the clarification, Barber." " You're welcome." " Auggie?" "They're spy satellites in disguise." "That's exactly what I just said." "Ma'am." "We were able to trace the ownership of those satellites to the intelligence agencies of China, Germany, Russia, and Israel." "Can the al Masri photo be linked back to the Israeli ones?" "Well, the Mossad satellites use a hidden layer of protection." "It's a brilliant protocol, one that we'd use on our own satellites were it not for its one vulnerability." " Which is?" " Flawed pixels in the images." "You'd never notice it just to look at the photo, but when you analyze it, pixel by pixel, boom!" "Five microscopic nails in Mossad's teeny tiny coffin." "Rivka can deny it all she wants, but the ones and zeroes don't lie." "Mm." "Guy does demo." "That's probably where Cole got his explosives." "You take the front door and I'll take the back." "If you're so eager to get shot, why don't you take the front door?" "We're two highly-trained intelligence operatives." "You don't think we can get the drop on a contractor with an NRA card?" "There's too much uncertainty." "You saw what happened at the storage facility." "I have all the certainty I need." "Daniel Cole?" "Who's asking?" "Like to ask you a few questions about your brother." "Get up." "Not a good start, Daniel." " Where is she?" " Where's who?" "Megan Carr." "The woman your brother abducted." "I don't know any Megan." "I haven't seen my brother in two years." "What about this morning..." "When you helped him plant a bomb in a car?" "You want to change your answer?" "Who are you people?" "FBI?" "ATF?" "You know, you can't just come onto my property without cause and assault me." "You gave him a vehicle, didn't you, hmm?" "Where was he going?" "You wanna talk to me?" "Bring a subpoena." "We're wasting time." " Hey!" " Unh!" " Go check the house." " He's lying!" "Go check the house." "I'll watch him." "Hey, you need to keep control of that bitch or I swear I'm" "What did you want to say about her, hmm?" "See, I'm not American." "I don't have to play by the rules." "I lent Griffin my four-by." "He told me I could pick it up later at the White Horse air field." "It's about 40 miles from here." "What about the girl?" "I don't know anything about a girl." "I swear, that's all I know." "Unh." "Unh!" "You want tell me what that was all about?" "How else were we gonna get that kala to talk?" "A couple of years ago I was in Amsterdam." "I was looking to recruit someone to insert into Khalid's organization." "I found Johanna Peeters." "From the moment I saw her," "I knew there was something special about her." "She was beautiful, vibrant, inquisitive, and educated." "She was the perfect candidate for recruitment." "More importantly, she was exactly Khalid's type." "A natural, like you." "The more I spent time with her, the more I knew it would be impossible to say good-bye to her." "Eventually it was time for her to start her mission." "She infiltrated Khalid's organization with ease, starting as a secretary at one of his companies." "Within months, she became a flowing source of intel." "And then suddenly, it stopped." "We never found out how she got discovered." "One day Khalid contacts Mossad with an offer." "Find a way to get him off of Mossad's target list in exchange for Johanna's life." "I thought he was bluffing." "The next day, her body was discovered in her houseboat on the Herengracht." "She was poisoned." "Like Karina." "Looks like it's Cole's M.O." "If Johanna never met me, she'd still be teaching somewhere in Amsterdam." "But I persuaded her to walk a different path." "So, you see, I understand why you feel obliged to find Megan." "What evidence did you have that al Masri was at the training camp?" "Well, we had human intelligence from local tribal assets and culled communication cables." "We had visual documentation." "When you say "visual documentation,"" "you are referring to this photo?" " Yes." " A photo that has been determined to be corrupted?" "Yes." "If you know now that the photo's been corrupted, how do you know that all the other intel implicating" "Khalid Ansari isn't as well?" "We're drilling down on everything." "You're drilling down now?" "After you tried to drop a bomb on the man?" "We did the best we could with the time we had." "Sometimes, the analysis of evidence needs to be fast-tracked a little more quickly than we'd like." "We understand some of this intelligence came from Mossad?" "What specifically did they contribute that led you to believe Khalid Ansari was funding terrorist groups?" "We have bank statements indicating large donations to dummy charity organizations, like the benevolent Red Crescent Society," "Al Baramain, and the IIRG." "And" "Is that the extent of the intelligence you've amassed on Khalid Ansari's connection to terrorists?" "Mr. Campbell, your response, please." "My response..." "I don't have any more answers." "I beg your pardon?" "This committee summoned me here without adequate time to prepare." "And now you're incredulous when I can't deliver the proper information?" "It's absurd." "You want the facts?" "I need time to gather them." "Are you requesting a recess, Mr. Campbell?" "I don't believe I've requested anything." "This hearing will resume upon our return from recess, two weeks from Monday." "Perhaps Mr. Campbell will be prepared by then." "I want every scrap of intel we have on Zamir Gerson." "I mean everything." "Yes, sir." "What you're looking at is the evidence" "Arthur is presenting right now to the senate intelligence committee, proof that Mossad intentionally fed the CIA falsified intel in order to have Khalid Ansari killed." "Israel's financial support is going to get slashed if you continue to hold on to the fiction that Mossad knew nothing about the corrupted intel." "I'm afraid I owe you an apology..." "On behalf of my agency and myself." "Okay." "New information has come to light since last we spoke." "And, um..." "I would like to share it with you in an effort to repair the damage that has been done." "This entire Khalid Ansari affair represents a black eye for Mossad." "It turns out...you were not the only ones who were duped." "Hey, what's up?" " Are you still with Eyal?" " Yeah, why?" "Can you slip away for a few minutes?" " Not really." " All right, then just listen." "Rivka is in the DPD." "She says those photos were doctored by Eyal, not Mossad." " What does that mean?" " It means, Eyal's gone rogue." "He was too emotionally involved in bringing in Khalid." "It had something to do with a woman in Holland." "He tried to use his relationship with you to get Khalid killed." "Now he is being decommissioned as a sign of good faith between our agencies." "That can't be true." "There's solid evidence, Annie." "Annie, you still there?" "I have to go." "Okay, okay, okay, okay." "Hey, you want to tell me what just happened here?" "What's going on with you?" "Rivka's at Langley." "She said you've gone rogue, that you doctored the photos of al Masri." "Not Mossad, you." "Wait a minute, wait a min" "Rivka's at Langley?" "You wouldn't do that, would you?" "You mean she's there right now?" "I'm telling you she just left Joan's office!" "Eyal, tell me that's not true!" "I'm sorry, Annie, but it's true." "You're lying." "Annie, I did it." "Mossad got caught pulling a fast one on the CIA." "And now you're taking one for the team to smooth things over." "You're sacrificing yourself to protect them." "You're wrong." "I acted on my own." "Was there no other way to achieve what you wanted than by using me like this?" "I trusted you." "I told you a long time ago that there is no such thing as trust among spies." "But you don't seem to get it." "You know this thing you keep doing, looking for the good in people?" "Not only does it make you weak, it makes you a target." "And an easy one at that." "Annie, come on!" "Open the hatch!" "Open it!" "Get out of here." "Drop it." "Drop it!" " Where's Megan?" " I don't have her." "You came to the safe house and got her." "I saw you." "No, I just stopped to give her a plane ticket and a fake passport." " She went to Khalid?" " Call me a decoy." "Drop it, Cole!" "Take the shot!" "Thanks." " Auggie, hey." " Hey." "Thanks for meeting me on such short notice." "Oh, that's all right." "Listen, I don't have a lot of time actually." "I've gotta get back to work." "But how can I help you?" "You can join us on the next tour of Operation Proper Exit, Captain Anderson." "That would be a tremendous help." "Did your voice suddenly drop an octave, Kip, or did you bring a friend?" "Sorry, Auggie, this is" "Major James Wylde." "13th Corps support command." "August Anderson, sir." "Sergeant Harbor here tells me you're interested in volunteering your time for our program." "Uh, well, I said I would look into it." "He gave me a brochure to read." "Well, I can answer any questions you might have right now." "All right, here's one." "What's with the full court press?" "I just had a battle buddy drop out at the last minute." "He and his wife are expecting their first." "Anyway, I'm short an officer and I need you." "We're shipping out in ten days." " Ten days?" " Right." "You'll need to get up-to-date on your vaccinations and, if your blues aren't fitting like they used to, you'll need to have them altered." "Listen, I'm honored, really." "But my inbox is piled so high even if I hadn't lost my vision, I wouldn't be able to see my desk." "You lost something very valuable in combat, son." "And you've managed to rise above." "You'd be a great inspiration to your fellow warriors." "I've been out of uniform more than five years." "You are not duty-bound." "But I'll need an answer by the beginning of next week." "Kip knows how to reach me." "Thanks for the ambush, buddy." "Well, come on, he said you're not duty-bound." "Maybe you're right." "Maybe I am naive." "Maybe I need to grow a thicker skin, but..." "I'm still having trouble believing you would give me doctored photos, knowing what would happen." "Given all we've been through?" "What are you saying, Annie?" "I'm saying I'm giving you one last chance to save our friendship." "There's nothing I can say." "Anything?" "Oh, not yet." "Did you get ahold of Rivka again?" "Despite her offer to repair the bond between our agencies, she seems to have returned to her former policy of ducking my calls." "Oh, I need a break." "Wanna get some dinner?" "Sure." "There's just something I wanted to talk to you about first." "What is it?" "I've been thinking a lot about what you said about taking responsibility for acting on the false intel." "You got the intel because Annie felt the need to go above my head." " Oh, that's not your fault." " I think it is." "I think I've lost control of my department and my operatives because I haven't been the leader that they needed." "Why is that?" "I've set a poor example of how to do this job." "I work weekends, and holidays, three anniversaries in a row." "And I expect the same from them." "And I've done some great work, but I've also run myself into the ground." "I think I've finally come to realize that doing this job doesn't mean doing it to the exclusion of everything else in my life." "Well..." "What do you want to do about it?" "Something that I have never done before." "Take a few days off, starting now." "Oh, I totally support that." " You do?" " Oh, yeah!" "Oh, yeah." "Thank you." "Sorry to interrupt, sir, but I thought you'd want to know right away." "Henry Wilcox's sentence is in the process of being commuted." " What?" " How did this happen?" "That's all the information we have at the moment." "Should I get the DCI on the phone?" "Midge, call Petersburg Prison and tell them I want a sit-down with Henry Wilcox as soon as possible." "That I acted alone." "That's what I was supposed to do, wasn't it?" "We had no choice." "It had to be done." ""By way of deception, thou shalt do war."" "Eyal, you had a role to play here." "For Mossad." "For Eretz Israel." "Annie trusted me." "Completely." "Yes." "That was the point." "That's all over." "I'm finished here." "What now?" "Now you go to Tel Aviv." "We'll find a desk for you." "I don't think so." "You don't think so?" "What the hell is that supposed to mean?" "It means I quit." "I've done some...foolish, dangerous, questionable things for Mossad--for you." "But this-- this crossed a line." "Don't forget which side of the line this woman is on." "I trusted her." "She saved my life five times, even though she only counts three." "Listen to me." "What is happening here is much larger than you know." "We've all had to play our parts." "We've all had to pay the price." "Yeah, what--what have you lost in this grandiose scheme, hmm?" "You." "Hey, you're still here." "Yeah, I'm on my way to Bluebonnet right now." "I just had to finish some emails." "What's that?" "This is an old army blanket of mine I was gonna give you if you were still going to Bluebonnet." "I don't understand." "Eh, it gets cold up there at night." "The rooms aren't very well insulated." "This helps with that." "Haven't you ever been camping?" "I mean, I don't understand about me not going?" "Oh, yeah, I buried the lead on that one." "You don't have to go back to Bluebonnet for debrief." "Auggie..." "I don't know how you did it, but I cannot thank you enough." "Actually, I didn't do a thing." "Up until about ten minutes ago," "I still thought you were going." "Joan?" "Why?" "I thought she couldn't wait to get me out of her hair for a while." "Maybe she realized she likes you too." "Too?" "Thank you." "That's a nice blanket." "Looks...really cozy." "Here." "I am sorry about the way you had to get here." "Fake documents, sneaking out of that apartment, all the secrecy." "It was a long trip." "But worth it, I hope." "I'm glad you could explain everything." "I was just so confused." "They wanted to scare you into turning against me." "That is how the CIA operates." "The important thing is we're together again." "Now, tell me again about the woman who approached you." "Annie." "Her name is Annie Walker." "== sync, corrected by elderman =="
