"Previously on Covert Affairs..." "There's a conversation" "I've been hoping to have with you for a while now, but I've never found the right time to have it." "We need to be as honest as we can." "It's the only way to make this relationship work." "You're a great friend, but I don't think we should meet anymore." "I love that we've grown close again." "You want to search someone's hands for Jai's blood?" "Search yours." "I had a meeting with Henry Wilcox." "I want to spare you from the bloodletting about to hit Langley." "Your security clearance will be dropped to a seven until we filter the data." "They requisitioned your hard drive and downgraded your security clearance." "Henry called it." "Your blood panel came back-- no health issues." "You're pregnant, Joan." "Congratulations." " You're the Puma?" " My friends call me Teo." "I suggest you two leave Colombia." "You don't want to get lost in Medellin." "The man you met, Teo-- he's Arthur's son." "In the coming days, press outlets will reveal that I have engaged in an extramarital affair." "I'm resigning my post, effective immediately." "[Car door closes, keys jingle]" "Since when did you start carrying on U.S. soil?" "Since the last time someone broke into my kitchen." "How'd you get in here?" "Don't worry." "I lost whatever press was tailing me." "Last thing I need right now is to be caught having an illicit meeting with some young blonde." "Is that supposed to be a joke?" "How could you do this to Joan?" "You don't get to ask questions yet." "We were investigating transfer of funds from your personal account to the Puma--a known terrorist." "Henry Wilcox gave this to you?" "Is, uh, this the woman you, uh...?" "That I resigned over?" "No, this is Teresa Hamilton." "She's a cutout for the Puma." "Arthur, I know Teo is your son." "What's going on here?" "I had no business having a kid." "I was still basically one myself-- just out of Annapolis, my first overseas tour." "And Teo's mom... her name was Ana..." "Ana Sofia." "I didn't learn she was pregnant until I was out in the middle of the Pacific." "If I had to do it all over again," "I would have proposed to her right then and there and begged her to come join me as soon as she could." "But I was young and scared." "So what happened?" "She had the baby." "Her parents became a huge obstacle." "They refused to let her marry me." "They made it very difficult for me to see my son." "But, uh-- but we still managed to steal a few moments here and there." "And where's Ana Sofia now?" "She died." "Her parents took Teo in, cut me off from him completely." "It wasn't until they passed years later that Teo and I were able to reconnect." "And that hasn't been easy." "[Chuckles]" "You know, I suppose I tried too hard to make it all up to him." "There's a part of him that keeps-- that keeps pushing me away." "But lately... he's become erratic." "That's accurate, with what I saw." "Does Joan know about Teo?" "No." "Why not?" "Joan and I had challenges trying to start a family, and I suppose I was..." "You know, I was afraid of admitting... just how much being a father meant to me." "Does Henry know Teo's my son?" "He hasn't said anything to me." "If he does know, he'll do everything in his power to exploit it... to ruin me." "He's gonna want to hear what I found out in Colombia." "I can try and see if he knows the truth about Teo." "Well, you can't ask him directly." "He'll have to volunteer it." "What if he doesn't?" "Confirm everything else." "Tell him I am funding the Puma." "What?" "Earn some trust, some goodwill, and we'll see what he does with the information." "Henry always finds a way to profit from other people's problems." "How soon could you arrange a meet?" "Thanks for meeting me on such short notice." "You said it was important." "Well, I just got back from Colombia." "You verify the intel in the file?" "The truth is even more damning." "The funds are being funneled directly to Teo Braga." "The Puma." "What about the woman in the photos?" "Got any I.D.?" "She's a cutout, like you said." "Arthur said her name was Teresa Hamilton." "I can't figure out his play here." "I've never had any success trying to discern Arthur's motives." "Were you able to discover the extent of Arthur's relationship with Teo Braga?" "No." "Well, then..." "Thank you for sharing." "Wait." "That's it?" "Well, I'm sorry." "You asked for the meeting." "I thought we were through." "Well, what's the next thing you want me to do?" "I mean, when I said I was in, I meant it." "I think you misunderstood our last meeting." "I wasn't asking you to do anything with the file." "I was simply, uh, extending a professional courtesy." "Right." "And I appreciate that." "Then why'd you already read somebody else in?" "You brought your boyfriend down to Colombia." "I brought my handler to Colombia, yes." "I felt I owed it to Auggie." "You owed him?" "He's implicated in that file." "His security clearance got dinged, just like you said." "Now, Arthur..." "How did you know that was gonna happen?" "I expected more from you." "[Cell phone ringing]" "What happened?" "Our fish has taken the bait." "♪ Covert Affairs 04x02 ♪ Dig for Fire Original Air Date on July 23, 2013" "== sync, corrected by elderman == @elder_man" "[Cellphone ringing]" "Where are you?" "We were supposed to talk to Joan this morning about Colombia." "I need you to run a trace on the pay phone on 14th and Pennsylvania." "A pay phone?" "I swear, sometimes I am convinced the phone company keeps them around for spies." "It was an outgoing call two minutes ago and an incoming one just now." "Why don't you tell me what's going on?" "I'm trailing Henry Wilcox." "What?" "Why?" "To see what he does with the intel I gave him." "I'm sorry." "What intel that you got from where to accomplish what?" "Arthur came to see me last night." "He confessed to everything." "Everything?" "What does that mean?" "To being Teo's father... to keeping it from Joan." "Joan really doesn't know?" "Promise me you won't tell her." "It's got to come from Arthur." " Yeah, fine." " Okay, I got to go." "Give me a call when you get a trace on that phone." "Hey." "This a bad time?" "Uh, it's not exactly a good one." "You know, I spent the last hour mulling over the appropriateness of dropping by like this given everything, but I wouldn't be able to live with myself if I didn't come down to offer you my support, so..." "Yeah." "Wow." "I have never seen you this awkward before." "Well, like I said, I just want you to know that I'm here for you." "Thank you." "Everybody up in legal was completely blindsided by Arthur's resignation-- I mean, everybody." "It's like it came out of nowhere." "Well, it came as a surprise to me too." "Sorry." "I can't comprehend how painful this must be." "If you want to grab dinner this week-- nothing serious, just a-- you know, an hour or two with a friend." "There's a Yucatan place that just opened over in Adams Morgan." "I just crossed the line to inappropriate, didn't I?" "I appreciate the offer." "I really do, but I've just got a little bit too much on my plate right now." "I understand." "The door's always open if you change your mind." "Thank you." "[Door closes]" "Finished running the trace on the pay phone Henry used." "Anything yet?" "A call was placed to Langley's main switchboard." "No wonder he used a pay phone." "Could you trace which extension he was connected to?" "No, it gets rerouted after that." "And the incoming?" "Burner phone, paid for with cash at a vending machine at the Frankfurt airport." " In other words..." " Untraceable." "Hey, why do I hear an echo?" "I'm in the Metro station at the federal triangle." "Annie, that is 29 different kinds of ill-advised." "If he spots you, you can't walk this back." "This is my train." "I'll call you as soon as I can." "[Knock at door]" "Hey, Auggie, do you have a second?" "Yeah, of course." "Do you want to sit down?" "No, I-I really only need a second." "I haven't seen you since, uh..." "How you doing?" "Why is everyone acting so odd around me?" "You're all walking on eggshells." "I'm not that fragile." "I know." "I'm sorry, Joan." "I just, uh..." "Look, I just want you to know that I'm here for you." "Good, 'cause that's what I need." "I'm in a bit of an awkward situation here." "[Sighs] Normally in the wake of discovering a CIA officer's affair," "I'd be tasked with investigating any possible security breach." "However, because that officer is Arthur" "You had to recuse yourself." "There was concern I'd get too emotional." "Well, no one could hold that against you." "Arthur's refused to divulge his mistress's name on the grounds she's covert." "Now, I don't want to burn anyone's cover or undermine this investigation, but I'd like to rule out any possibility that Arthur might have been... for lack of a better word, sloppy during his assignations, for personal reasons." "I understand." "There was a night recently, we were out to dinner." "Arthur stepped away to take a call." "I didn't think much of it in the moment, but in retrospect, I'm quite certain that I saw a second cell phone on him." " You want me to look into it?" " Would you?" "Off the record, of course." "Of course." "We were at the Atlas Room." "It was Thursday night." "Call came in 8:40, 8:45, roughly." " I'll get right on it." " Great." "Thank you, Auggie." "Yeah." "[Elevator bell dings]" " You getting off or not?" " Oh, yeah." "Yeah." "I'm sorry." "One second, please." "No problem." "Medellin needs 15 more minutes." "When they're ready, I'll patch them in on the Polycom." "Solstar's a regional heavyweight in the energy-services business-- big footprint in Colombia." "They're pumping close to 300,000 barrels a day out of their field in Casanare, or, to be more specific, they were pumping that much until about two weeks ago." "The Ayacucho pipeline bombing." "Uhhuh, courtesy of our friends Teo Braga and the A.L.C." "It doesn't feel like a coincidence." "No, it doesn't." "It sure would be nice to hear what they're saying in there, wouldn't it?" "Yeah, my thoughts exactly." "Hey, do you have access to the central office switches?" "I do now." "I haven't done taps since the farm, though." "Oh, it's like riding a bike, only the bike isn't breaking the fourth amendment." "All right, what you want to create is a slave parallel wiretap." "You'll need Solstar's target line." "They should be grouped by floor number." "Okay, got it." "You'll need an unused line you can pirate to eavesdrop from." "You're listening for a dial tone." "That's your parallel." "Now you need to create your slave." "Uh, I'm one wire short, though." "Uhhuh." "Hey, what about your headset?" "Do you have wire cutters?" "No, but I got teeth." "Well, that'll do the trick." "[Spits] Signing off." "[Garbled] No, that's two separate bouquets going to" "Why would I throw in Fernandez?" "Fernandez would be starting on any other team in the league." "[Garbled] My guy inside fudra-- he says they've got things under control." " Your guy's lying to you." " Bingo." "Things aren't under control." "[Static, garbled speech]" "The CIA's been secretly financing the A.L.C. under the table." "It's why Arthur Campbell had to step down." "He has a personal connection to Teo Braga." "Teo Braga?" "What kind of connection?" "I'm afraid that's classified." "But believe me, it's a bond that cannot easily be severed." "He knows." "He knows Teo's identity." "He knows he's my son." "I'm sorry, Arthur." " I need to confront him." " Disagree." "We work the intel." "We still have a potential mole to uncover." "This affects the entire Agency, not just you." "Play it again." "We have a handle on the Solstar execs." "It's the other voice that we can't place." "[Static, garbled speech]" "We know Henry's in contact with someone in the building, and this guy says "we."" "My guess is he's one of ours." "Do you recognize his voice?" "Well, Henry's voice is overriding it." "The sound quality's not great." "Hey, Annie put a lot on the line to get that for you." "Let's hear it again." "[Static, garbled speech]" "CIA is..." "No." "I can't identify him." "Do you think it could be someone from the Latin desk or one of your ex-lieutenants?" " I don't know." " Play it for him again." "I don't know who it is." "Great." "Thanks for all your help." "Auggie." "No, we need to take this to Joan right now, tonight." "You can't do that..." "Not yet." "Why not?" "Is it because you don't want her to know the truth about Teo?" "Or is it because you don't want her to find out about this phony affair of yours?" "I grabbed your backup burner phone number from a cell tower in the near northeast-- secret email account, too." "You know what I found?" "Nothing." "No secret messages." "No late-night booty calls." "You say she's a covert operative, so I find it highly unlikely she's threatening to go public." "Now, you could have resigned quietly for personal reasons." "No one would have been the wiser, but you needed a diversion to take the scent off Teo." "Bravo, you figured it out." "Look at the big brain on you." "Joan thinks you really cheated on her, Arthur." "I'm trying to protect her." "Lying to her was the hardest thing I ever had to do, but let there be no doubt-- I had to do it." "Well, your story won't hold up." "I'm not gonna be the last one looking into it." "It doesn't have to hold up forever-- just through tomorrow." " What's tomorrow?" "There is a chance that Joan emerges from this unscathed, but she's gonna need more than plausible deniability." "She needs to be unassailable." "Otherwise, she'll go down with me, and they'll remove her from the building." "She has to pass a polygraph." "That's the reason you kept all this from her." "The poly's scheduled for tomorrow." "I need you both not to say anything to her until afterwards." "Thanks for asking." "Of course we won't say anything." "But you underestimate her, Arthur." "You underestimate us all." "I'm just trying to make things right." "Well, it's a little late for that." "So you've never had a relationship with someone you worked with..." "A relationship that challenged your standards of honesty and intimacy?" "Maybe we should call it a night." "I think that's a good idea." " Can I use your bathroom?" " Of course." "It's just right there." "[Door closes]" "You better check that attitude of yours." "You need to stop playing on Annie's sympathy for you." "If you needed somebody to go toe-to-toe with Henry, you should have come to me and left her out of it." "She was already in it." "Henry made sure of that." "No, this is all on you." "Oh, so you're gonna keep score?" "Who let her go to Colombia?" "Which one of us read her in on Teo's identity?" "I told you she was gonna figure it out on her own." "And I think it's a mistake not to read her in entirely." "I know it's a burden to keep secrets from her." "From my vantage point, it looks like you want her to find everything out so you don't have to carry the weight." "Sack up." "You ready?" "Are you upset with me?" "No." "Why would you say that?" "The way you went after Arthur back there-- it was out of character." "I didn't know if maybe you were mad at him for sending me after Henry or not." "No." "That is Arthur... not you." "But it was my decision." "I'm a big girl." "I just don't like being put in a position where I have to lie." "To Joan?" " To Joan, to whomever." " Mm." "I'm not gonna actively deceive her." "I won't volunteer anything, but if she asks me what I know about Arthur," "I'm not gonna lie." "You know, before we started..." "This..." "[Both chuckle]" "I would have shrugged off you spying on Henry without consulting me first." "It is how you roll, and it is one of the many things" "I like about you." "But I feel differently today." "You are upset with me." "Not upset... just a little sad..." "That we have to make these kinds of compromises." "That comes with the territory." "We're not them." "We don't have to fall into those traps." "We appreciate your counsel here today, Henry, but I just can't justify the extra outlay to my board, not for another security contract." "I think you're making a grave mistake, Roger, but if the timing's not right" " Thank you, Henry." " Buenas tardes." " Buenas tardes." " Adios." " Hey." " Hey." "I, uh, know it's only been 24 hours, but were you able to pull anything from that detail I gave you-- a name, a number?" "[Knock at door]" "They're ready for you down in polygraph." "Okay, tell them I'll be there in five." "So were you able to find anything?" "No." "Nothing yet." "[Sighs] That's disappointing." "I can keep looking if you like." "Would you, please?" "Oh, um, Auggie..." "One day you and I are gonna discuss what you were doing with Annie down in Colombia and why you've been acting so strangely since you got back." "Oh, I didn't realize anyone would..." "Be here." "It's okay." "[Vomits, coughs]" "Joan, are you okay?" "[Toilet flushes]" "This is, uh... kind of embarrassing." "Life sure comes at you in funny ways sometimes." "[Knob squeaks, water running]" "Joan, are you pregnant?" "[Sighs] Just one more thing I didn't see coming." "So much for woman's intuition." "How are you feeling?" "Are you okay?" "Besides discovering the father of my child is cheating on me, I'm great." "Joan, I've been meaning to talk to you about something" "Annie, I am late for a polygraph." "Can this wait?" "Yeah." "Okay." "Arthur doesn't know about any of this yet, so if you could..." "Of course." "Thank you." "Polygraph number 447-b, Joan Campbell." "According to your statement, you didn't learn about the affair until the night before Mr. Campbell resigned." "Yes, that's right." "Did he tell you who the infidelities were with?" "No." "And you were unable to pick up any nonverbal cues, any changes in body language or the tenor of his voice?" "This is my husband we're talking about, not a rival spy." "Are you aware of anything" "Arthur would have wanted to cover up-- any misappropriation of funds, any unauthorized operations?" "No." "When was the last time you were intimate physically with your husband?" "We're talking about a culture that abhors surprises, and what I'm hearing from my sources is that nobody inside Langley saw this coming at all, not from a lifer like Arthur Campbell." "Right now there is no shortage of speculation as to what really motivated the Director of Clandestine Services to step down so suddenly." "I spent my lunch hour casing out Solstar." "Chatted up a receptionist having a smoke." "I didn't glean anything about who else was in that meeting, but I did find out Salazar is headed to Colombia this week for an executive retreat." "How about you?" "I sampled the voice from that teleconference, ran it through a voice-recognition database, but I came up with nothing-- the quality's too iffy." "So we know what?" "He's a he?" "And that he can say "good afternoon" in Spanish." "That doesn't drain the pool very much." "We have to keep drilling down." "Yeah, unfortunately it's gonna have to wait till after the NFAC run-through." "Ugh." "You know, if we sit near the door, maybe we can sneak out during the powerpoint presentation." "Hey." "Hey to you too." "I'm not stalking you, in case you were worried." "I wasn't even thinking that until you just said it." "Uh, listen." "You can't say that you got this from me..." " Mm-hmm." " But I just heard that you aced your poly." " You heard that already?" " Yeah." "Uh, DCI wanted the results immediately." "Rumor has it he's banging the drum to have you replace Arthur as DCS." " What?" " Yeah." "That felt like a witch hunt, not a job interview." "Well, I'm sorry to jump the gun like this, but I just figured you could use a pick-me-up." " Well, thank you." " No problem." "Is that invitation for dinner still open tonight?" "Well, what do you think?" "I have to run home first to do an errand, but you can pick me up at 8:00." "Great." "Well, I hope you're hungry." "The place is called Casa Nosotros, and the Cochinita Pibil is amazing." " Okay." " Okay." "Buenas tardes." "Seth Newman?" "We think he's who gave Henry the details of your bank transfers." "Does he have access to that kind of information?" "Not directly, no, but if he was motivated enough, sure." "Well, you stole Joan from him, didn't you?" "We were both in relationships at the same time." "It's tough to say who stole who." "All right, let's just say he was properly motivated." "What do we do about it now?" "Nothing." "Nothing?" "At least not openly." "We can't accuse him without something concrete." "If we confront him, it'll only expose you to Henry." "I want to search his house, see if there's a safe that I can get into or a burner phone I can pull the digits off of." "Too risky." "He's single." "He lives alone." "We know he won't be home until at least 9:00 or 10:00 tonight." "Well, how do you know that?" "Because Seth's having dinner with Joan." "I think they said tacos." " What are you doing?" " Trying to reach her." "No, if you tell Joan now, we lose our window." "Olivia, is Joan available?" "Okay." "No." "No message." "Arthur, hold on." "We just found out Seth's a mole, not a killer." "He's been alone with Joan on plenty of occasions without causing her harm." "That's not what I'm worried about." "Well, what do you think she's gonna do-- sleep with him for payback?" " I didn't say that." "It's only dinner." "Trust me, Joan is not thinking about payback right now." "What do you mean?" "Nothing." "It's just--it's Joan." "Let it play out." "You leaned on us yesterday to keep our mouths shut." "Now suddenly you need to talk to your wife?" "Until Annie gets out of Seth's house safely, you're gonna have to wait to clear your conscience, okay?" "[Phone clatters on table]" "[Doorbell rings]" "You ready?" "You're not, are you?" "I'm sorry." "I don't know what happened." "I got home, and I just crashed." "You've had a crazy couple days." "It's okay." "I should have called you." "I know, but I was trying to rally." "We'll rain check." "Thank you." "You know..." "[Sighs]" "I can't comprehend anybody ever taking you for granted." "[Door opens]" "Yes, I'm on a burner cell." "[Door closes]" "No, she passed the polygraph." "Yeah, she's on the fast track." "Yeah, I have it right here." "How about I bring it to you tonight?" "[Engine revs, tires squealing]" "[Tires screech]" "No!" "[Grunting]" "[Tires squealing]" "[Shouts]" "[Tires screech]" "[Breathing heavily]" "[Both scream]" "I know you, Arthur." "I know you better than I know myself." "So I find myself wondering just how it would have been possible for you to have an affair without me knowing-- without you leaving any possible trace." "And then I realized... the polygraph." "So what is it?" "You're right." "I'm not having an affair." "It was meant as a cover story." "To cover what?" "I got myself into a situation where there were absolutely no" "Stop spinning and start talking." "Just give me the headline." "What is going on here?" "I have a son." "His name is Teo." "He's 32 years old." "He lives in Colombia." "Wow." "That wasn't even in the top ten of things I thought it might be." "I can't tell you how sorry I am about--about all of it." "You know what?" "I need you to stop talking, and..." "I need to use the bathroom." " Are you gonna be sick?" " I don't know." "I'll figure it out once I get there." "I'm pregnant... by the way." "[Door closes]" "I spent the last 30 minutes monitoring public-safety scanners." "So far, it seems no one has seen or heard anything." "No mention of a struggle nor a traffic incident on the bridge nor a body falling into the Potomac." "So let's consider ourselves lucky." "Yeah." "Okay." "Is there any chance we can fish that thumb drive out of the river?" "No, even if we knew where it was, it'd be too risky." "Now, we have 48 hours before Langley starts their investigation, unless someone reports him missing before then." "Someone's gonna see signs of a struggle at his place?" "Is there anything there that could lead back to you-- any fingerprints, stray hairs, drops of blood?" "What does it matter?" "It's not like we can enlist a CIA cleaning crew to sweep the house of their own lead counsel." "Hey, you are not gonna hang out there on your own on this." "I won't let it happen." "I know." "Now... where does this go?" "My shoulder." "Oh, I've heard of those." "Allow me." "How'd I do?" "That's my forehead." "Oops." "[Cell phone beeping]" "Who is it?" "It's Henry." "He wants to meet me tomorrow." "I wasn't expecting to hear from you again so soon, after what you said." "I've been giving our last conversation some thought." "You asked me what I wanted you to do next." "Looks nasty... and recent." "What did you do?" "Fender bender." "It happens." "When I was at the farm, they taught us to use our mirrors." "I'm sure you didn't ask me out here to criticize my driving." "No..." "I didn't." "I need you to go back down to Colombia as soon as possible." "Arthur has abdicated his responsibility." "It's up to us to fill the gap." "What kind of gap?" "I received intel that the A.L.C. is planning an attack on American interests." "Teo Braga is behind it." "You've established a contact with him, some kind of rapport." "You may be the only one that can get close enough to stop him." "Are you asking me to kill him?" "You've already told me twice that you are in, without reservation." "Time to back those words up, Ms. Walker." "== sync, corrected by elderman == @elder_man"
