"Previously on Covert Affairs..." " You're being reassigned." " Who are you?" "I'm Lena Smith." "I'm your new boss." "Next time you want some consideration regarding one of my operatives, just come to me directly." "I'm Parker." "I'm leaving the nest this fall though, off to the Peace Corps." "Eritrea?" "I just wanna go somewhere where I'm needed." "I'm catching the first flight back to Eritrea." "So you can propose?" "It's beautiful." "Is this a bad time?" "If it is, just tell me, and we can talk tomorrow." "Although you always leave so early for work." "Maybe I could meet you downstairs in five minutes?" "Sure." "[Sighs]" "Actually, this really can't wait." "Um, Michael's in town." " Really?" " He wants a divorce." " Did he say that?" " No, but I know him." "I'm so sorry, Danielle." "Don't be." "I'm okay with it." "I'm even ready for it." "It's just, the girls." "What do I tell them?" "Katia and Chloe are gonna be fine." "They have you." "And you." "Do you want me to go with you tomorrow?" "I can drive you." "No, I have to do this by myself." "Okay, well, even though you're doing this by yourself," "I'm here, okay?" "You're not alone." "But you wanna be alone right now, right?" "Mm, yeah, that'd be good." "[Sighs]" "Marco!" "Polo!" "[Laughs]" "Game's a lot trickier when you can't cheat." "Oh, you like to cheat, huh?" "Better keep your hands where I can see 'em." "Oh, not a chance." "[Squeals]" "[Laughter]" "Peace Corps margaritas." "Three parts humility, two parts lime, one part any other damn thing you can find." " All right." " Hopefully, alcohol." "And then you mix and serve generously." "No salt on Auggie's." "[Laughs]" "Nice." "This must be why the locals are so fond of you." "Oh, yeah, I wish." "Hey, listen, you guys, thanks for letting a civilian tag along." "Here's to the Peace Corps." "To a week in paradise." "Yes." "And the indisputable skills of our bartender." "All:" "Cheers." "Thanks for putting up with my friends." "You know, they're just blowing off a little steam." "I'm an ex-Army man." "I get the concept of a little RR." "They like you too, by the way." " I know." " [Laughs]" "How about you?" "Mm." "I'm still making up my mind." "If I have your undivided attention..." " [Laughs]" " I have a surprise for you." "Your very own specially chosen oyster shell." "Actually, I'm not sure what kind of shell it is." "It might be a conch shell." "I don't know." "What is this?" "[Gasps]" "Oh, my God." "Parker, will you marry me?" "[Giggles]" "Excuse me, gentleman waiting." "[Laughs] Yes, yes, yes, yes, yeah." "Well, you should know now, Mr. Anderson, that we're gonna have three kids, two girls and a boy." "Boy first, a little Auggie." "Wow, we are really fast-tracking this thing, huh?" "He's gonna be just like his father." "Oh, blind?" "Amazing." "[Distant] Parker!" "Auggie!" "Something's happened." "Wade, what's going on?" "Everything okay?" "She slipped and cracked her head." " Oh, my God, Debbie." " Where is she?" " Portside." " Debbie?" " Deb?" " Is she bleeding?" "No, no, I don't think she's bleeding." "Debbie?" "Here, her pupils are dilated." "They're not reactive." "And she's got a weak pulse." "We gotta get her to the hospital." " Let's get her below." " Yeah, good idea." "Parker, keep the door open." "Okay." "Wade, just careful with her head on the way down, okay?" " Careful, careful." " And one, two, three." "Debbie's conscious." "She's hanging in there." "I already radioed in a distress call." "You what?" "Well, once we get to Massawa, I'll pay for a heli-vac." "I don't care what it costs." "What?" "Uh, it's just distress calls in this part of the world are sometimes not a great idea." "Well, what are you worried about?" "All we've seen is the U.S. Navy." "Just keep your eyes open." "What is it?" "You see anything starboard?" "Yeah." "It's a small boat." "They're coming fast." "How many people are onboard?" "Um, three men." "Auggie, they have guns." "Pirates." "d Covert Affairs 03x03 d The Last Thing You Should Do Original Air Date on July 24, 2012" "Okay." "Pirates don't sail these waters." "This isn't the Gulf of Aden." "It's not the Welcome Wagon, Wade." " I can outrun 'em." " No, we can't outrun them." "And we can't outfight them." "We cooperate." "That's the fastest way to get Debbie medical care." "[Gunshots] They're shooting at us!" "No, it's warning shots." "They're firing into the air." "Now shut off that engine." "Everything okay?" "Everything's gonna be fine." "Just stay calm, okay?" "[Speaking arabic]" "Not move!" "[In arabic] Hands up!" " Phone, phone, you got a phone?" " Yeah, yeah, yeah." "[Speaking arabic] Not move." "Not move." "Not move." "Nobody to be hurt." "[Whispering] The ring." "Ring, ring, ring." "Ring, ring, ring." "No, no, no." "Brother, I mean no harm, inshallah." "Blind?" "Yes." "No." "No phone." "[Phone ringing]" "Hello?" "Passports." "Hydrodynamic charts of the Red Sea?" "Looking for buried treasure?" "Hi, Lena." "I was hoping you'd still be in Munich." " Everything okay with Simon?" " Yes, it is." "I was just about to send you a report." "Time spent on reports is time out of the field." "Can I run something by you, off topic?" "Am I gonna need my coffee first?" "Got a call 45 minutes ago from Auggie Anderson's girlfriend Parker Rowland." "It was a hang up." "Are you getting ready to ask me relationship advice?" " No." " [Chuckles]" "A couple of days ago, Auggie left to spend some vacation time with her." "She's in the Peace Corps in Eritrea." "Eritrea, ugh, man after my own heart." "Best coffee in the world." "I contacted the Peace Corps and they said they were joined by two other volunteers," "Debbie Green and Wade Moore." "Auggie said they were going sailing." "Should be fine in those waters." "It's well outside the red zone for pirates." "They're off the northern coast of Sudan, according to the G.S.M. signal." "I did a quick check on Wade Moore." "His father is a defense industry contractor Angus Moore." "He just made a $200,000 money transfer to Topaz Security." ""K" and "R" is Topaz's specialty." "He's a good friend of yours?" "Yeah." "Well, I need to make some phone calls." "No, no, no." "Where are they taking her?" " Wade, stop." " Where?" "Wade, stop!" "She's a medical hostage." "What does that mean?" "They don't wanna give her medical care." "It's too risky." "They're gonna get her help." "I promise." "[Engine starts]" "[Speaking arabic]" "[Speaking arabic]" "She's an American." "I can hear it in her accent." "So here we are." "Firstly, your friend Deborah has to be released." "Medical aid, then a trip home." "She can get a parade, a book deal, go on Dateline." "They love pirate stories." "As for the rest of you, I know this is frightening." "We're not about hurting people." "This is just a business transaction." "You're American." "You're blind, interesting." ""Blind guy walks down a dock in Africa."" "There's a joke in there somewhere." "Call me Analise." "I will be negotiating on behalf of our pirate friends." "Your future now depends on the behavior of your loved ones." "I'm assuming they do, in fact, love you." "And are very anxious for your safe return." "Come." "[Knock at door]" "Auggie Anderson and three other individuals have been taken hostage by Somali pirates." " When?" " We just got word." "What the hell was he doing in the Red Sea?" "You okayed his request." "I didn't know he was going on a cruise." "Bad, bad timing, this." "Okay, so I'll loop in East Africa desk." "I wanna call Jeff Miller at State." "He's a guy you can at least talk to." "And D.S. needs to free up some emergency funds for potential ransom." "That's being handled." "So who's on point?" "All right, that was 45 minutes ago though." "No, no, that's fine." "No, I know, but we need to log faster." "Yeah, but, um, yeah I'm gonna call you back." "Can you hold on a second?" " Joan." " Lena." "What can I help you with?" "I understand you've been tasked with the hostage situation in East Africa." "That's right." "Annie brought it to me." "D.C.I. kept me on it." "Can I talk with you in your office?" "Sure." "Auggie Anderson's my former op." "I know his training, his thought process." "And I am just as familiar with this territory as you are." "I understand that." "But you don't have a state department cover for when it comes time to negotiate." "If you're even thinking about boxing me out again," "I'm not gonna let that happen." "No one's boxing you out, Joan." "Look, you're wound up." "I get it." "You're concerned." "But there is no reason to come in here and do this." "Pull up a chair, Joan." "I'm gonna check in with State." "In the mean time, Annie, read Joan in on where we stand." "[Brakes squeaking]" "Everybody out." "Go, go." "[Speaking arabic]" "[Speaking arabic]" "Come." "[Speaking arabic]" " What are they saying?" " [Shushing]" "[Speaking arabic]" "Excuse me, this woman is engaged to this man." "They're gonna be married." "And since he's your money source, it would not be wise to separate them." "Go ask your boss, she'll know." "Go ahead." "[Speaking arabic]" "Did I hear something about impending nuptials?" "That's right, me and Parker." "What, he was too cheap to buy you a ring?" "We left it back home." "It needed to be resized." "Smart move." "You never know what can happen to your most prized possessions in this part of the world." " What about Debbie?" " She's on her way home, courtesy of the Peace Corps." "She's fine." "On to business." "Auggie, your family in Illinois, and Parker, your family in Virginia will not figure in the negotiations." "What does that mean?" "Means Wade's the rich one, know your facts." "I can put a price on anything, oil, minerals, people." "My father will pay." "That won't be a problem." "Good." "Good to hear." "That's the spirit." "Now speaking of prices." "There's value in all sorts of things." "One simply has to know the details." "For instance, a man who maintains his physique, keeps his head in a fraught situation-- he may have once worn a uniform." "What have we here?" "Shore leave in Okinawa?" "Memorialize this brotherhood and drunken buzz." "God and country for all to see." "Am I about right?" "I have a phone call to make." "Now when this is all over, you need to tell me where you're registered." "I'll send a gift." "[Door closes]" "[Door locks]" "Based on the coordinates of the cell phone call, we'll likely be dealing with one of six clans who perpetrate these hostage takings." "Probably the Hawiye clan." "Maybe, or maybe not." "Things change quickly in Africa." "Lena forgets we served together for a year at the Nairobi station." "And what a year it was." "I'm concerned about the Moore family." "They have pull." "And they've hired Topaz Security." "I can reach out." "Covered." "I've spoken with them and they're standing down." " What about the other families?" " No need." "Wade's family has the money." "The Moores have granted me proxy to handle the negotiation." "Do we have eyes over Sudan?" "Mm, D.G.S.E. says satellite availability is imminent." "D.G.S.E.?" "You're piggybacking on a French intelligence satellite?" "Yeah." "If I waited for N.R.O. to task satellites," "I'd never get anything done." "Still bending the rules, I see." "A woman can get great results by being flexible, Joan." "Negotiator's holding on the Polycom." "Do we have the coordinates?" "Nothing." "They're good." "All right." "Give us a minute." "Okay, so let's run this down." "White woman, young, unmarried, 1.1 million." "Rich white American male, age unimportant, 4.5." "30-year-old male from suburban Illinois, nominal." "She'll run it up to six." "I'll counter at two." "There's something you're not considering." "Auggie's ex-Special Forces and he has the tattoo." "Where?" "Here, on his back." "Pirates have other options." "There's a standing offer from Hezbollah and the Brothers in Allah," "$2 million for any captured U.S. serviceman." "She's right." "Special Forces get a bonus, 4 million." "That means they could sell Auggie independently regardless of what we offer." "We have to acknowledge he's Special Forces." "No, actually, we don't." "Well, it would be better if we did, as a sign of good faith." "There is no good faith in negotiations like this." "Lena's right." "We should hold it." "If they don't know, we shouldn't give 'em idea." "Let's get this done." "This is Lena Smith from the State Department." "Good to talk with you, Lena." "Are you still drinking Tusker?" "More than I probably should, yes." "Can you give me a minute?" "I know this woman." "Analise Pound, she's a former U.S. oil executive." "Spent half her life in East Africa." "Sometimes she can get emotional." "Two of her hostages have died recently." " So request another negotiator." " No, I can handle it." "So we're thinking two." "2 million for all three hostages." "Analise, I'm not gonna negotiate with myself." "Well, you're not negotiating with me." "I'm not?" "You're a far cry from eight." "Eight?" "For a spoiled rich kid and his two friends?" "Whose families still value them, no doubt." "Plus one is Special Forces." "You understand what the means, don't you?" "Special Forces, it's the first I've heard of that." "Ahha." "It says here on my dossier that one of the men is blind." "Is that true?" "Doesn't make him any less valuable to certain parties who have an abiding interest in U.S. soldiers." "What would the State Department say to his family then, Lena?" "Is that a threat?" "You know how I feel about threats." "Call it a question with a pinch of malice." "I'm prepared to offer a package deal." "But because you weren't upfront with me, wasted my time, it's 10 million." "We're standing at 2." "Take that to your people." "We'll be waiting." "It's a little like buying a car." "[Door opens]" "You, come." "Who is he talking to?" "He wants me to go with him." "[Gasps] Wait, wait." "Where are you taking her?" "Don't touch me." "You never touch me." "Hey, Wade." "No, no, no, Wade." "Auggie, Auggie." "Wade!" "No, no, no." "[Grunting]" "Wade." "Wade, no, no, no." "It's fine." "[Speaking arabic]" "Wade, he just wants to take her to the bathroom." "Okay." "[Speaking arabic]" "All right, Wade, he's gonna take you first now." "You, go." "[Yells]" " Are you okay?" " Yeah." "That was good." "That was good." "He stood up for you." "He risked his life." "They might just buy that you two are engaged." "Now listen to me, I need you to stay close to him." "I need you to help me sell it, okay?" "Okay." "He--you-- you seem to know exactly what to say and do, and just be so calm." "Like, how--how do-- how do you know all this?" "How?" "I don't-- Hey, hey." "I gotta tell you something before Wade gets back." "[Sighs]" "I'm with the CIA." "I understand situations like this, people like this." "I can keep you safe." "Like CIA, CIA?" "Yeah." "Is that why we're in this place?" "No, no." "But my training is what's gonna get us out of here." "Wait, wait." "When-- when were you gonna tell me?" "I was gonna tell you the next time you were in D.C." "Parker, I thought a lot about how to tell you." "And believe me, it wasn't like this." "I was gonna take three days off of work just so that we could have time to talk about it." "I knew you'd have questions." "Look, I-I know this is hard." "Hard?" "Oh, that doesn't begin to describe this." "Parker-- ah, come on." "You proposed to me." "I said yes." "Who am I marrying, Auggie?" "No, no, no." "You know who I am, Parker." "Don't do that." "Listen to me, I love you." "I trust you completely." "Now I-I've compromised your trust." "I'm sorry." "I'm sorry too." "[Door opens]" "You, come." "[Door closes]" "That was--[sniffs]" "Smart what you did earlier, saying that she was my fiancee." "I wouldn't have been that quick." "You did fine." "I don't know." "I'm not really known for my quick wit." "Seven different boarding schools in seven years." "My father was convinced I wouldn't amount to anything." "And I have been trying to prove him right ever since." "You dedicated your life to public service." "Yeah, I don't really think of it as service." "The fact is, it's a blast, the Peace Corps." "The people, the travel." "Parker though, she's the real deal." "She really cares." "You know, she talks about you nonstop." "You're a lucky guy." "I know." "Here." " How did you get this?" " It was on the ground." "Must've fallen out of his pocket, so I grabbed it." "[Sighs and chuckles]" "Wade, you keep this up, you may find yourself in the wedding party." "It's too quiet." "You need to reach out, up the bid." "Nope." "Ball's in their court, and they know it." "Well, then I wanna speak to Angus Moore." "I'll bring him up to speed." "He might solve all of this with a single check." "One team, one voice, Joan." "He'll lose confidence if we confuse him." "Who knows what his next play will be?" "Annie, you have a call on your N.O.C. line, the Smithsonian." "Uh, take a message, please." "Oh, no, that's okay." "You can take it." "All we can do now is wait." "I'll be quick." "Hello." "I was just thinking about our weekend in Munich and I thought, "Did you take my phone charger?"" "Uh, really, that's why you're calling?" "What other reason would I have?" "Actually, yes, I did take your phone charger." "I didn't realize until I got back home and saw mine." "Well, I need it back." "I need to make a phone call." "Aren't you making a call right now?" "Not for much longer without my charger." "Tell you what, why don't you do this?" "I'm in Paris." "Fly to Paris, and you can bring it back to me." "You want me to buy a $2,000 plane ticket to return a $20 charger?" "No, the ticket's on me." " Buy a new one, Simon." " Come on, Annie." "Where's your sense of adventure?" "I'll talk to you later." "I gotta go." "Bye." " Was that--?" " Yeah." " Nice." " [Chuckles]" "[Engine revving]" "[Tires screeching]" "[Explosion]" "[Distant indistinct chatter]" "[Indistinct whispering]" "Listen up, moments ago, there was an armed attempt to rescue our hostages and they hit the wrong house." "Moore went ahead and sent in Topaz anyway." "Yeah." "I thought we had that under control." "So did I." "Always expect the wild card." "Always build in redundancy." "Incoming, it's your negotiator." "Wonderful." "[Phone beeps]" "Big, big mistake." "We can't be held responsible." "We had no hand in this." "Your T.A.C. team is dead." " They're not ours." " New rules." "Price is now 15 million, no more negotiation." "You have two hours." "Because of your screw up, you lose a hostage." "Click." "[Phone beeps]" "Angus Moore was always a cowboy." "And Topaz never cared much for protocol." "Well, you said you had them standing down." "They're private actors." "There's no controlling that." "The good news is, they were incompetent enough not to get anybody hurt." "Nothing's changed." "Still making promises you can't keep." "Still taking unnecessary risks with my operatives." "What are we talking about?" "Nairobi, right?" "All over again." "Whatever you think happened back then, didn't." "You're like a heartsick schoolgirl who just can't let go." "You blew my asset." "Someone died." "You left town." "What part of that is incorrect?" "Jonathan, for your information, was not who you thought he was, professionally or otherwise." "He got himself killed." "Okay, stop." "We need a contingency plan." "This is about Auggie." "She's right." "Let's keep our heads, and get your friend back, like I promised." " You, come, everyone." " Where are we going?" "[Speaking arabic]" "Here, here, here, here." "Come, come." "[Speaking arabic]" "[Engine starts]" "Why are they moving us?" "It means we need to escape." "[Horn honking]" "Sounds like we're hitting more traffic." "They must be taking us back into the city." "Maybe the deal's been made." "You heard that explosion." "That was a rescue attempt." "Maybe there will be another one." "Hostages don't survive moves." "We need to escape." "Now if we're heading back into the city, that means roadblocks." "That's gonna be our best shot." "No, no." "Parker, I know you don't wanna hear this right now." "But you need to trust me." "No." "I'm frozen, Auggie, okay?" "That's how terrifying this is." "I just-- hey, you can do this." "I need you." "Now we are gonna get out of this together." "Okay?" "Okay." "Okay." "[Sniffling]" "We have firepower in the area, right?" "It's not that easy, Annie." "U.S.S. Carl Vinson is in the Red Sea." "And Seal Team Two is on that ship." "We have them on alert." "And move them where?" "Pound is gonna move them." "She thinks we have a possible fix, so she'll move 'em into a city." "Ras Hadarba." "It's something." "I'm all for action." "But an entire city?" "That's not actionable." "We wire the money." "And we wait." "Now you agree?" "Now?" "If anything goes wrong, the extraction team is on standby." "We just have to give them the word." "Why are you waiting till something goes wrong?" "Annie, we don't know where Auggie is." "And we can't put more people at risk until we do." "When we get word, or we hear from Auggie himself, then maybe we can do something." "Otherwise, we wait." "Auggie will follow his training." "He will find a way to escape if he needs to." "I know him." "It's your call, Annie." "You know him well." "No one knows him better." "Send the team." "[Brakes squeaking]" "All right, this is it." "Get ready." "Now listen to me, the second that you see daylight, we go." "[Grunting]" "Wade, there's gotta be a gun." " Got it." " Aim high." "[Gunshots]" " Go." " Here, this way, this way." "Wade, Wade-- step, step." "Wade, Wade!" "Wade, come on!" "[Phone ringing]" "Hello." "Hey, I'm looking for the American Taxi Company." "Auggie, I knew it." "Are you okay?" "Yeah, we're all right." "But we need a ride." "They're en route, 20 minutes." "We'll use this cell phone signal." "It's so good to hear your voice." "You have no idea." "Actually, I'm pretty sure I do." "We need to find a rooftop." " Oh, God." " Go." "Go as fast as you need to, go." "What is it?" "No, it's too high." "No, we can't." "There's no way." "We gotta find our way to the roof." "Okay, okay, okay, um" " They're here." " Oh, God." "[Panting]" "Aah." " Stop, stop, stop." " Fence." "We can go through." "Okay, go, go, go." " Don't bust your head." " Yeah." "Auggie said he'd be on the roof of the building for extraction." "What's that on the roof?" "Auggie, there are towers." " How high?" " High." "Then they can't land on the building." "What's the E.T.A. for the chopper?" " Two minutes." " Two minutes." "[Panting]" "Don't even think about it, Auggie." " Can we jump?" " Auggie, no." " Wade?" " Yeah." "Then we jump." "You go first." "Parker and I will jump together." "Jump?" "Auggie, no." "We barely made it up the stairs." "We can do this." "Guys, they're coming." "Then we jump." "[Grunts]" " You okay?" " Yeah." " Okay, he's okay." " Okay." "We're gonna count off our steps together, ready?" "Both:" "One, two, three, four." "Now here's the deal, we both have to commit." "Once we start running, we cannot stop, okay?" " Okay." " Okay, take my hand." "Parker, we can do this." "Take my hand." "Now." "[Grunts]" "[Exhales]" "[Grunts]" "[Gunshots]" "[Panting]" "They're coming." "[Helicopter approaching]" "[Gunshots]" "[Exhales]" "Good work, Annie Walker." "Joan, thank you for" "Cheers." "Cheers." "I know this wasn't what you thought you were going to be doing today." "Work is work." "We're gonna accomplish a lot together, you and me." "Think Joan's okay?" "Eh, she's a big girl." "She gets it." "Annie, you wanna climb up the ladder at the Agency, right?" "To do that, you need a storied biography." "Joan is one chapter in that story." "I will be another." "And someone else after me will be your next." "Then one day, it will be you." "You will be that story." "So Simon's calling you on your N.O.C. line?" "Not bad." "I didn't even give him the number." "He must have got it off my N.O.C. profile online." "[Chuckles] Even better." "I took his cell phone charger." "I'm having ST wire it up, GPS tracker, data mining." "Then I'll return it to him in Paris." "Adding to your story already." "[Laughs]" "I didn't kneel." "Maybe that was the problem." "How did you--?" "Parker, will you marry me?" "Auggie" "I should have trusted you." "Forgive me." "Yes." "Yeah." "I told you my only secret, I promise." "Okay." "We're gonna be happy." "I know." "Okay, I've cleared my whole night." "And I have a care package, wine, chocolate, ice cream." "I'm good." "You're already into the wine?" "Michael and I decided to give it another shot." "I know, I know." "Um, what happened?" "Michael was just pleading with me in that sad little hotel room." "And I just looked at him and thought of all the moments we'd had together." "And I just realized that-- that chapter of my life is not over yet." "Because I don't want it to be." "Danielle, is this about the girls?" "I'm doing it for us, as a family." "Girls need a happy mom." "Yeah, and I'll get there." "We'll get there, as a family-- in California." "In California?" "Michael got a job in the Bay area." "The hours are better, so he'll be home so we can work on things." "That's amazing." "You think so?" "I do." "I do." "I mean, and you won't be homeless." "The market sucks, so we'll figure out the house" "Oh, my gosh, I'm not thinking about that." "I'm gonna miss you very much."
