"[BARKING]" "[DOOR OPENS]" "Eat, Alexi, eat." "There is more bread and fish." "As much as you want." "The dossiers?" "Alexi you have many friends, but there's a limit what we can do." "I want you to think very carefully about this plan." "I have, Andreev." "It kept me alive for nine years." "I have a heavy debt to repay." "I will need a contact in Washington." "Someone to assist me." "There is a person there I have in mind." "You'll be on your own in Washington, totally out in the cold." "You do understand that?" "[JAZZ MUSIC PLAZING QUIETLY ON SPEAKERS]" "Relax, Lee." "She's always 10 minutes late." "I'm a bartender." "You get to know your regulars." "So we're regulars now, huh?" "Well, five nights in two weeks." "Same booth in the back." "Salad for each of you, an entree you split, and, uh, no doggie bags." "[CHUCKLES]" "You're regulars." "What a shame to lose that smile." "Was it something I said?" "Heh, no." "No, I thought you were someone else." "A vodka, please." "Very cold." "In my country, there's an old saying "A smile is a window." "A frown is a door."" " To windows?" " To windows." "My name is Sonja." "Well, that is a very interesting proverb, Sonja." "I'm Lee." " Hi." " Hi." "Sorry I'm late." "You have change?" "I need to call home." " Sure." "Here you go." " Oh, good." "Thank you." " Okay." " I'll be right back." "Thank you." "I think I just got hit on by a Soviet agent out trolling." " Really?" " Yeah." "It's nothing to worry about." "I'll file a 760, the casual contact, boys will have a look and come up with an ID." " Oh, you know what?" " Hmm?" " You know what Norman called us earlier?" " Mm-mm." "Regulars." " Regulars?" " Yeah." " Really?" "Heh." " Heh, I kind of like it." "What do you think?" "Well, I don't think we're regulars at all." " Amanda, we are..." " Oh, come on." "Listen." "We act like strangers at work." "We sneak around and we invent stories about how we spend our evenings." "I would love to be regular." "Well, me too." "And we will be." "BILLY:" "We're talking about a nuclear attack on D.C." "SIOP, The Single Integrated Operation Plan is designed to prevent this." "The war game conducted by Dart's team will simulate an attack and test our strategic communications." "More importantly, it will prove to the world that we can survive and strike back." "It's called Stemwinder." "Psychologically speaking, it should pay some big dividends at the next disarmament conference." "Where does the agency fit into this?" "I mean, war games are not exactly our forte." "The Russians will be doing everything they can to monitor the test." "Your job is to give them a window, a small one, to peek through." "Why not give them open access to the test results?" "The brain game, Scarecrow." "If we hand them the results on a silver platter.... ...they'll, uh, discount it all, figure it's some kind of setup." "But if we make them work for it, then they think they've scored." " Hmm, what's the window?" " Radio frequencies." "You've each been assigned someone we might leak them to." "Francine, I've given you Rostov." "He'll be coordinating with Soviet shoppers." "Neiman, Ivan the Terrible." "Scarecrow, you've got Sonja Chenko, new kid on the block." "We'll do a peacock dance with her." "Mrs. King has had enough training to help." "Thank you, sir." "BILLY:" "All right." "That's it." "Once we get a viable target, Dart will provide the frequencies." "Uh, Billy, could I talk to you for a minute?" "Amanda, give me five minutes, okay?" " Sure." "I'll met you upstairs." " All right." " You'd better give this to somebody else." " What's the problem, Scarecrow?" "You know the peacock dance better than anyone." "I'm not right for it." "Look, you said Sonja Chenko is new on the block." "So give it to a younger guy." "No problem." "Use the age differences." "The more mature man, getting a little antsy, looking for change." "The Lisbon variation." "The Lisbon variation?" "No way." "Mm-mm." "The Lisbon variation to the peacock dance, what's it that?" "Uh, the dance is pretty straightforward." "Um, an agent initiates or encourages contact with a target of the opposite sex in order to establish a relationship in wich intelligence is taken or given." "Does that mean what I think it means?" "Probably." "Just business." "Oh, yeah." "Okay." "That's the dance." "What's the variation?" "Ugh, in the Lisbon, you and I pretend to be lovers." "I can make that adjustment." "But I'm getting restless and the relationship's deteriorating wich sets me up for the third person, Sonja..." " ...and makes my attraction logical, believable..." " Hate it." "...and statistically valid for an American male my age." "Amanda, Russians are suckers for statistics." "[CHUCKLES]" "But of course if you don't wanna do this..." "No, I'm a pro." "I can do this." "When do we start?" "Tonight?" "Right." "Lee:" "Come on, it is only 10:15." " I would really rather go home." " And do what?" " Sleep." " Don't you start on that again." " I am not starting on that again." " You are just too busy, too tired, you're coming and you're go..." " Keep it down." "I'm sorry." "I would like to spend a few quiet moments with you alone." "All right." "Then let's go to a club, have a drink, listen to music or something." "Oh, that would be quiet and we would certanly be alone, wouldn't we?" "It would be a lot of fun, wouldn't it?" "Fun?" "You remember that?" " We used to have it a couple years ago!" " I'm leaving." " No, you are not leaving." "Come back here!" " Oh, yes I am." "Give me a check, will you?" "I'll be at the bar." "C'est la vie." "Give me another brandy, will you?" "[SIGHS]" "And after the bar?" "We walked along the river, talked." " Talked about what?" " Nothing, really." "The words were unimportant." "It was how they were said." "How did he seem?" "His attitude, his mood." "Upset." "Hungry." "The relationship with the woman is troubling him." "Or so he wants us to believe." "Heh." "In this game, we are like mirrors on mirrors." "One never knows what is real and what is not." " Apple?" " No." "Stemwinder is activated in less than two weeks." "We must have access by then." " When do you see each other again?" " Tomorrow night." "Work Stetson." "Find out if he's a mirror or a man." "You understand?" "[SIGHS]" "Rostov has not changed." "So little imagination." "Keep playing the innocent." "He will buy it all the way." "As will Scarecrow." "You got his prints?" "On the glass in the bag." "Grandfather, we only have two weeks." "Maybe Stemwinder isn't our best opportunity to get to Stetson." "[CHUCKLES]" "Stemwinder, heh perfect game within a game." "It's gonna be the noose with wich Scarecrow is going to hang himself." " What's the matter?" " Nothing." "Everything." "SONJA [OVER RADIO]:" "I'm very nearly eating you alive." "Oh, damn it." "Wait." "It's what we both want, what's wrong with it?" "It's not that simple for us." "[SIGHS]" "Sonja, uh..." "For people like us, every day is complicated." "It comes with the territory." "Besides, as good as it is I haven't spent six nights in a row over here for the food." "[CHUCKLES]" "I haven't had you over six nights in a row so I'd have an excuse to cook, either." "I'll tell you a secret." "I bought it all, anyway." "Once I discovered America's greatest treasure, the gourmet supermarket." "Then what can possibly be wrong, huh?" "It's my superior." "His name is Rostov." "I don't know, he dislikes me." "Perhaps because I'm young, aggressive, a woman." "Who knows why?" " But he's threatening to send me back to Russia." " What?" "To convince him that I'm worthy of staying, I need something substantial." "Listen, I don't wanna lose you." "Maybe I can help." "You mentioned Stemwinder." " Yeah." "It's the hottest ticket in town." " I'd be a hero." "Rostov would have to let me stay." "I can get access to Stemwinder's radio frequencies." "Front row center seats." "You'd do that for me?" "Yeah." "SONJA:" "Can you get it by tomorrow?" "I mean, I know that's fast." "Don't you worry." "I can get them." "And then we can mix business with pleasure." "This is real drag." "SONJA [ON RECORDING]: ...then we can mix business with pleasure." "I think we've got ourselves a carrier pigeon." "Yeah, maybe." "There's something about this Sonja." "It's just an itch." " I'll see if T.P. Aquinas can scratch it." " Keep me posted." "Meanwhile, I'll phone Dart and see if I can get those radio frequencies." " All right." " Excellent." " Excellent work, Amanda." " Thank you, sir." "A successful Lisbon variation depends on teamwork." " Yes, sir." "Lee did all the dancing." " Heh." "[PEOPLE CHATTERING]" "I'll call you back." "Well, T.P., there's a tongue over at the Library of Congress says that, uh you're spending more time here than over there." "This is your new office?" "A man must surround himself with the sources of inspiration, Lee." "Besides, with my briefcase phone, any tabletop is my office." "Oh, Mrs. King, I would recommend the tutti-frutti, it's the best in town." "No, thank you." "This is terrific, Mr. Aquinas." "Look there is this guy that I bumped heads with a few years back that has this nervous habit of walking a coin back and forth over the back of his hand, Alexi Makarov." "Ah, the Sorcerer, ha, ha." "He used to do that trick with a coin to keep his hands limber." "Oh, and what wonderful hands." "Yeah, he fell out of favor a few years back." "Uh, thanks to a sting organized by our Scarecrow." "I read the case report." "Well, I just met a woman who does the same coin trick." "Now, I was wondering, could there be a connection." "Is he still alive?" "Well, it might be difficult to get that close to the Gulag to find out." "Well, poke a stick around that hole anyway, would you, T.P.?" "BOTH:" "Hello." "Stetson and King to see Mr. Dart." "Okay." "Name, destination, time in, please." "One signature will do." " Wear these while you're in the building." " All right." "Thank you." " Thank you." " Thanks a lot." "You're welcome." "My name is Kurtz." "I'm here to see Admiral Benton." " What'd you say your name was?" " Kurtz." "I'm sure it's there." "[COUGHS]" " Yeah, take the elevator to the fourth floor." "MAKAROV:" "Guard." "This man needs assistance." "I think he's fainting." "Bryan, are you all right?" "Here, loosen your tie." "[GASPS]" " Who are you here to see?" " Admiral Benton." "My name is Kurtz." "All right." "Sign in please, and take a badge." "This is Brackman." "Send up a medic quick." "DART:" "And those are the Stemwinder frequencies we want the Russians to have." "Thank you, sir." "This should do it." " Give the Soviets a good show." " We intend to." "Thanks for making the trip over." " Good luck." " Thank you, sir." "[AMANDA SIGHS]" "[ENERGY CRACKLING]" "BRACKMAN:" "Would you sign out, please?" " Of course." " How's your colleague?" " Not good." "He's at the hospital." "How clumsy of me." "Let me help you." " ohh, no, that's all right." "I'll get it." " Thanks." "Thank you." "Excuse me." "Are you the party that requested the limousine?" "No." "The call specified a black limousine to be engaged for the entire evening, correct?" " No, heh." " No, I don't think so." "Did the caller leave a name?" "There seems to be a mistake." "Excuse me." "[CAMERA CLICKS]" "You're sure that was Rostov?" "Positive." "He ran the procedure down perfectly." "He was expecting a meet." "All right." "Why would the KGB station chief wanna meet you?" "[SCOFFS]" "That's a good question." " Same check-in signal." "AMANDA:" "Mm-hm." "I'll tap the mike every hour, tap, tap, pause, tap." "Tap, tap, pause, tap." " Yeah, just to let you know I'm okay." " Right." "Now, it's 10:00." "I should be out of there by midnight." "Okay." "Look, Amanda, it's an agent's option to spend the night." "I don't want to." "I feel a headache coming on." " I'll see you at midnight." " You bet." "Tap, tap, pause, tap." "[JAZZ MUSIC PLAYING ON RADIO]" "[SONJA CHUCKLING]" "SONJA:" "Oh."

"Well, maybe this will help." " The frequencies to Stemwinder." " Yeah." "You did get them." "Was it difficult?" "Oh, just like falling into bed." "SONJA:" "That reminds me." "LEE:" "Of what?"

" Uh, hello, this is Amanda King." "The word is bluejeans." "Um, I'm on a public line." "It's not clean." "Could you get me the night-duty officer, please?" "I have, uh, a condition-one alert, agent in dire jeopardy." "One moment." "[SIGHS]" "BILLY:" "Amanda, what's the situation?" "Sir." "I'm sorry, sir." "I asked for the night-duty officer." "Amanda, I thought this was condition one." " What is your situation?" "Report." " Uh, yes, sir." "Um, I'm in Sonja Chenko's apartment and Lee and Sonja are not here." "He missed his last two check-ins so I came in as backup." "He said he'd be out at midnight and, well, he isn't so, I thought something was pretty wrong." "You damn right there is." "Why do you think I'm out of bed at 12:30 in the morning?" "Ok, a team of bloodhounds will be there in five minutes." "I want you to leave now." "Meet me back at the agency." "Sir, Why don't I stay here so I can help them look for Lee?" "Amanda, do it now." "This is bad trouble and I don't want you out there alone." " Move it out." " Yes, sir." "I'm out of here." "Goodbye." "Billy, Dart wasn't expected home so his body wasn't found until Stemwinder countdown began." "I just talked to the medical examiner." "He said his neck was broken probably late yesterday afternoon." "Lee and Amanda were the last ones on the log to see him alive." "What about the Stemwinder frequencies?" "Well, they're still in the safe, but they could've been photographed." "Or not." "We found two different sets of prints on the safe." "We're running them but, uh, would you care to hazard a guess?" "Francine, would you stop with the looks." "I put my money on Lee and Amanda." "They can explain." "Maybe, but you are gonna call off Stemwinder, aren't you?" "You give me too much credit." "Let's just say, I'm gonna make a suggestion and hope like hell that somebody listens." "[GROANS]" "Amanda." "Hit him upside the head with his bottle, man." "He'll wake up." "If a wino grabs you it's like a vice." "I've ben rolling juicers longer than you Dupe." "[GROANS]" "[ALL GRUNTING]" "HOWLER:" "Grab him." "Hey." "Get him, man." " There he is." "DUPE:" "He jumped over the thing." "Get him." " Move, hurry up." "HOWLER:" "Let's go." "DUPE:" "Come on, get out of the way." "Check in the car, man." "Come on." "She's struggling with a post-perceptive avoidance reaction." " Spare me the psycho babble." " That's not babble." "I could give you babble." "Don't." "I need something solid now." "This is Amanda King in here." "I know her, I can get through to her." "Just my point, you have a bias." "You side with her and Scarecrow." "You owe it to her, Billy, to let us be as rigorous as possible." "I don't like it, but there could be questions later on." "Murder and treason do raise them." "Now, Mrs. King, concentrate, please." "I'm concentraiting but I should be out looking for Lee." " Mrs. King, please, just answer the question." " All right." "Now, Scarecrow found himself in a dynamic situation yet you say he set a time limit, correct?" "He felt he could attain his objective by then." "WOMAN:" "Mrs. King, I know what his objective was." "I'm looking for a yes or no answer here." "Did you believe him?" "Yes." "He promised." "Promised?" "That's a noodle we can work on." "Field agents trust facts not promises." " Noodle?" "QUID:" "Put the pressure on her." "Come on, Billy." "You know how it goes." "Better we succeed now." "Compared to what comes later, this is a pat on the back." "First, the debilitary drug series then sensory deprivation, and finally induced psychotic phobia." "Sir, any word on Lee?" " Uh, just a minute, we're not quite finished." "QUID:" "Maria." " Nothing, yet." " Thank you, sir." "Come on." "MAN:" "Enemy submarine-based launched." "Key map grid coordinates 2246." "WOMAN:" "Stemwinder war game time, 1 hour 22 minutes, 30 seconds." " How it's going?" " Into the dumper." "Just lost the downlinks from the HP-1 over the USSR the land links from Pavepaw's radar, and, uh, their secure frequencies." "Or they were." "That's it." "Twenty kilo tons from a Vlota class sub off Maryland just turned D.C. into hot confetti." "A sub launch is supposed to give the president eight minutes to make up his mind, 8 minutes." "But our communications fall out after the first blast." "We didn't respond." "We lost." "I thought Dr. Smyth gonna get off his rump for once and put a stop to this." "The National Security Council told the president we lacked proof." "Oh, they've got it now." "Fools." "The Russians are jamming six or seven of our frequencies." " So Scarecrow did sell out." "AMANDA:" "No, sir." " Sir, if you'll excuse me..." " I will not excuse you." " You're the housewife turned agent, huh?" " Yes,sir." "I think you're just as much a traitor as Scarecrow." "No, sir." "Lee and I are not traitors." "I don't know what's going on but it seems as if everybody's asking a lot of questions and pointing a lot of fingers and being awfully rude when Lee's out there somewhere, risking his life for his country." " ...and we should be looking for him." " Oh, we are." "Rest assured." "Billy." " Damage estimate." "BILLY:" "Total." "We won't be secure again for several weeks." "And the presidet just lost his bargaining chip for the peace talks." "He'll want to kick a dog, and I don't plan to be it." "Sweat the housewife and bring me Stetson's beating heart." "Okay?" "Hot confetti." "MAN:" "Registering direct hit." "No, sir." "Sir, you don't really think Lee stole those secret radio frequencies?" "The important thing to do is to bring Lee back in safe and sound and then find out what he did." "He didn't do anything, sir." "Somebody's just trying to make him look bad." "LEE [ON RECORDING]:" "Just like falling into bed." " He was undercover." " So to speak." "All right, all right." " Now, let's start with Phillip Dart." " Yes, sir." " You saw him just before he was killed." "AMANDA:" "No, sir." "You said he was killed at 4:00." "We left at 2:30." "Uh, eighty percent confirmed." "Lee Statson's handwriting." "AMANDA:" "Has to be a forgery." " This isn't a forgery." "Lee's prints were found all over the safe." "He never went near the safe, Francine." "I was there." "Well, then explain how the copy of the secret frequencies ended up in Lee's lover's apartment." " She is not his lover!" "BILLY:" "All right, now just hold it." "Now, we have to clear up some curious things here." "AMANDA:" "Yes, sir." "Now, why did you and Lee meet with Soviet station chief Rostov." "We weren't meeting with the station chief." "We were having dinner, he came up to the table he said something about a limousine, he said he'd made a mistake and he left." "Sir, you have to believe me." "Amanda, we want to believe you but it's awful hard." "For instance, Lee's report says that Sonja made her first contact with him while he was having a drink on the way home, but he wasn't." "He was having dinner with you." "Is this some new habit?" "It's not exactly a habit, sir" "Well, the bartender says it is." "He calls you regulars." "Five nights in the last two weeks." "[PHONE BEEPS]" "BILLY:" "Melrose here." "Scarecrow." "It's Lee." "Get a trace." "Lee, where are you?" "Well, that's exactly what we've been try..." "Yes, she's right here." "Sure, hold on." "He wants to talk to you." "Now, talk him in, because we need him here to find out what's been going on." " Hello." " Hi, Amanda, are you all right?" "Yes, I'm all right." "But I'm scared to death and I'm worried about you." "I'm okay." "They zàpped me with something but I've finally shaken it out of my head." "Stemwinder's a mess." "Phillip Dart's dead." "They think we killed him for the secret radio frequencies." "Dr. Smyth called us both traitors." "They've been grilling me for hours." "Hold on a second." "Amanda, it's a setup." "It's a crazy tutti-frutti business, Amanda." "I gotta go." "Good, Amanda." "We got a trace." "[SIGHS]" "MAN [OVER PHONE]:" "Yes, sir." " We have to throw a net around Scarecrow." "And get me a couple of trappers in case he turns into a runner." " Who?" " You heard me, Scarecrow." "Priority one." "Do it." "All right, people." "Listen up." "[SIGHS]" "BILLY:" "This net is gonna be top priority." "Francine will brief you in my office ASAP." "Peterson, Clark, you're gonna be in charge in the field." "Keep your eyes open and use one band, one band only." "Understood?" "You think we can stick with her?" "We've got two helicopters, two vans, two motorcycles, four on foot." "NSA electronic intercept backup." "Ah, if Lee so much as tries to signal her with mirrors or toss her a paper airplane we'll catch it." "Go." "Subject's headed north towards ice-cream parlor." "AGENT 1:" "We'll take her from here." "AGENT 2:" "Standing by." " Hello, sir." "Bonjourno, Mrs. King." "Glad you looked me up." "You and, uh, Lee are becoming quite the talk of the town." "Have you seen him?" "Uh, not since last night, sir." "But I talked to him on the phone about half an hour ago." "He said something about this was tutti-frutti business we were in." "So I figured that, that meant he might call you." "Tutti-frutti." "Very good." "Oh, before we go on, Mrs. King, I notice you brought quite an entourage with you." "The van, possibly the motorcycle, the tourists." "Shoot." "I should have seen them." "They're using their best men." "Take it as a compliment of sorts." "Chilly feeling, isn't it?" "To discover you're not the hunter but the quarry." " Yes, sir." " Oh, uh, Lee was right." " About what, sir?" " Alexi Makarov was freed five weeks ago by a secret order of clemency from Gorbachev himself." "He's had nine years to plot his revenge." "I don't understand that, sir" "Revenge is usually personal and this Stemwinder thing involves a lot of people." "He's Russian." "He needs poetry." "Nothing worth doing is worth doing simply." "[TELEPHONE RINGS]" "Uh, T. Percival Aquinas." "Oh, yes, Lee." "Uh, uh, you know, the boy's a regular telepath, right on cue." " Yes, sir." " Heh." "Oh, I got positive word on our friend from some Black Sea beluga fisherman." "Yeah." "Thanks, T.P." "Save me the sordid details, will you?" "Let me talk to Amanda." " You." " Thank you, sir." "Lee, we have to stop playing this telephone tag." "It isn't getting us anywhere." "Save it." "I've got about 20 seconds before they lock on to this line and track it." " You've got to go home." " Go home?" "What are you gonna do?" "I'm trying to find Sonja." "The agency is crawling over her apartment." "She won't go back there anyway." " Let me help you." " No." "All you can do now is lead them to me." "Now that we know it is Alexi, you are in danger." "You've got to go home, take the long way." "Use up their manpower, but don't lose them." "They're your security blanket." "You got it?" "I need time to play one more card." "Be careful." " I love you." " What?" "MAN [OVER RADIO]:" "Subject turning onto Pennsylvania Avenue." "Pick her up, Blue team." "She knows just exactly what she's doing." " What did Aquinas say?" " Oh the same." "We're trying to confirm if Alexi Makarov really is alive." "It's a tip from a small-fry snitch I use at the TASS bureau." "He says that Lee is in a grocery store in Georgetown." "These Russians are always muddying things." "I guess it's better than watching Amanda King lead us around by the nose." "[FRANCINE SIGHS]" "MAN 1:" "Paper or plastic?" "Okay." " It's 59 cents a pound." "MAN 2:" "Can you double bag that, sir?" "MAN 1:" "I'll get it for you ma'am." "WOMAN 1:" "Would you watch my basket?" "MAN 2:" "I need a cart to be taken out to the parking lot." "MAN 3:" "Can I get a cart for a customer?" "MAN 2:" "There's no price on this." "WOMAN 2:" "Where's the express line?" "MAN 2:" "I have a coupon here." "You take a check?" "[PEOPLE SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY]" " Let's head for the door." " The pasta, you remembered." "That's right." "Well, as long as I've got you, this could work out." "Did Jeanie ask you to pick up a few things on your way home?" " Scarecrow." " Back up." "That's right." "Back up" "[LEE GROANS]" "MAKAROV:" "Quick." "This way." " Francine, where'd she go?" " Who?" "You know who." "Sonja, I had her." "Scarecrow, maybe I can help you figure out how they built this frame around you." "I trust you, Billy, I just don't trust the stinking system." "Not until I can back up my side of it." "Uh-uh." "Oh, I'm sorry, man." "MAN 2:" "Hold on, Scarecrow." "Come on, he's running." "MAN 3:" "Cut him off." "MAN 2:" "Cover the exit." "WOMAN:" "Hey." "JAMIE:" "Hi, Mom." "AMANDA:" "Hi, sweetheart." "Ah, I almost thought you forgot tonight is my Eastern Star installation ball." "These all-night work sessions are becoming chronic with you, Amanda." "I mean If it is work." "Listen, did anybody call me while I was gone?" " No." " Anybody drop by?" "Nope." "Anything weird happen in the neigbourhood?" "JAMIE:" "Yeah." " What, sweetheart?" "Well, Andy Kaskill swallowed a live toad and blacked out." "Phillip's over there now." "Wait till you see my outfit." "It's gonna make my date black out with animal lust." "I have about five or six different kinds of earrings." "I want you to pick for me because I can't..." "Okay, wait, hold it." "Wait, hold it, please." "I'm sorry." "Let's just have a family meeting, ok?" "Drop everything, will you?" "Put everything down just for a second." "Just gotta talk to you, all right?" " Okay." " Now look." "Uh, a man that I work with is, uh, having some problems, all right." "His name is Stetson, Lee Stetson." "You've talked to him on the phone before, Mother." " Deadman." "I thought it was Deadman." "AMANDA:" "No, it's Stetson." "At any rate, there may be some people who come by to talk to us and they'll be Federal agents." "They may wanna ask us a few questions." "And, uh, well, they think that Mr. Stetson may have given away a few things that he shouldn't have." " What?" " Secrets, sweetheart." "Amanda, aren't you being just a little melodramatic?" "AMANDA:" "Mother, I'm exhausted." "I work for IFF, IFF works for the government, the government has secrets, okay?" " Like what kind of secrets?" " Nice try, Sherlock." "A secret's a secret." "Look, why don't you just give your brother a call and ask him to come home?" " Would you do that for me?" "Thank you." " Okay." "DOTTY:" "Amanda." " Yes, Mother." "Heh, you're not mixed up with any of these federal agents, are you?" "Heh, Mother." "[AMANDA CHUCKLES]" "[CLEARS THROAT]" " What about the other two?" " No sign, sir." "We're covering the area." "Shall I order a D-1 manhunt?" "That would be excessive force." "That's why I'm considering it." "It would give me excessive satisfaction." "We don't wanna risk killing Scarecrow before we find out how long he's been working with them." "We don't want him writing us postcards from Moscow either." "I trusted him as a friend, gave him a lot of rope." "Hmm." "Okay." "Make it a D-1." "But give it to me." "He's mine." "I'll leave the death-probable order with you and ask the president to sign some blank pardons." "No more namby-pamby." "Pick up the King woman." "Grind her, Billy." "She's in it with him." "Trust me." "Scarecrow and Mrs. King have been sticking it to us from the start." "[AMANDA SIGHS]" "Gosh." "Lee." "No, keep the shades up." "Down is to suspicious." "How did you get in here?" " Through the front door." " You're hurt." " A window got in my way." "Don't worry." " Oh, no." "Amanda, I came to say goodbye." " What do you mean "goodbye"?" " Exactly that." "I can't even go to Billy for help." "Alexi's turned the agency against me." "Ironically, that's how I got him." " Wait a minute." "I'm tangled up in this too." " Don't you see?" "As long as I'm out there on the loose, I can try and do something that'll clear us." "I've gotta find Alexi before he goes under himself." " Now, I may be gone a while." " How long?" "As long as it takes." "Oh." "[TIRES SCREECH]" "Amanda I meant what I said on the phone." "I just want you to know that before I go." " I love you." " Oh, heh." "I have for a very, very long time." "I just..." "I was just never ready to..." "You know." "I know." "[DOORBELL RINGS]" "DOTTY:" "I'm coming." "Amanda, I think those federal agents are here." "They're gonna be up here in a minute." "No, wait a minute." "You can't just walk into my life hand me a package, tell me to give it to the man in the red hat tell me that you love me, and walk out of my life again." "No." "[AMANDA MOANING]" "[AMANDA SIGHS]" "AGENT 1:" "You sure you haven't see them?" " I'll get word to you." " I'm going with you." " No." "No." "No." " Yes." "Yes." "Yes." "Forget it." "I'm going to a place that is so deep that you may lose your name, your way, everything." "Now, Alexi thought he had me today." " I know." "I know." " He won't miss twice." "I don't know what he looks like anymore." "I can't baby you out there." "You won't have to baby me." "Look, I'm gonna watch your tail just like I always do." "We work best together as a team, and besides that we don't know what Alexi is gonna do next." "It might be dangerous for my family for me to stay here." "I can't do anything to help them from an agency holding cell." "And I love you too." "I guess it's your tail too." "AMANDA:" "Oh, I'm sorry." "[GRUNTING]" "[AMANDA GRUNTING]" " This thing isn't gonna hold us." " That's what I keep telling the boys." "AGENT 2:" "It's them, Scarecrow and Mrs. King."
