01x05 - Episode 5

[bunniefuu]

(tension music)

[Boris] The orbital b*mb
sent him a message.

[Francis] The dial had
a series of numbers

exchanged
by the probe and the orbital b*mb.

[Virgil] Luna les a?

(g*nsh*t)

I'll get you out of here, dad.

[Boris] My watch.

Take it and save yourself.

- Reduce the dose.
- Classic painkillers

were not enough.

- The CIA is working with your husband.
- What do you want ?

Find out if Charles is a communist.

(frightened sobs)

Why did the CIA kidnap me?
Why ?

Because you worked for the KGB.

I got trapped.

We get out right away.

[Josef] This way!

[Virgile] Come on, go for it! Come down.

Come on, come on!

(cries of Russian soldiers)

(panting breaths)

[Virgil] Over there!

(whistle)

(Lyudmila halete)

(whistle blows)

They are getting closer.

(cries of Russian soldiers)

[Virgil] Over there! This way.

(g*nsh*t)

[Virgile] We're stuck.

[Francis] Damn.

[Virgil] Come!

(shout in Russian)

(scary music)

[Virgile] Hold this for me.

(reloading a*mo)

(cries of Russian soldiers)

(Virgil gasps)

[Yemeline] The girl is with them?

[Josef] Not.

Are you sure ?

Certain.

We can't let
them go west.

Yes.

We made a mistake,
we have to go back.

[Virgil] Here we go.

It's two forward crossovers.

They left.

[Francis] Virgil...

(the music intensifies)

[Yemeline] Down.

[Virgil] Run!

(expl*si*n)

(panting breath)

(Russian soldiers in the distance)

(debris collapse)

(a coughing fit)

(rapid breathing)

Virgil...

Virgil.

Virgil!

sh*t... sh*t.

Virgil!

Virgil!

sh*t !

(groans of effort)

Virgil.

(screams of effort)

Oh !

(muffled cough)

[Francis] How are you?

How are you ? Breathe.

How are you ? You scared me.

(a coughing fit)

[Francis] Damn.

(engine roar)

(dramatic music)

(groan of effort)

(debris collapse)

[Francis] We have to get out.

Can you walk?

(they struggle to breathe)

Everything is going to collapse, let's hurry.

(rat squeals)

sh*t !

To the left or to the right ?

(Virgil moans)

There is a draft.

One!

OK...

(metal shocks)

(rapid breathing)

(whistle blows)

Which side of the border are we on?

[Virgil] I don't know...

(barking)

[Francis] Give me your g*n.

I'm coming.

(roar of the tractor)

[in English]
Are we in Germany?

Are we in Germany?

- [in German] Germany?
- Yes.

Germany.

(panting breath)

(engaging music)

(low music)

(nervous breathing)

[driver]
You over there!

Hey you! Stop!

- Come back!
- [policeman] What's going on?

Someone got into my truck.
I am not a bus.

- Where ?
- The low.

I'm taking care of it.

(klaxon)

(panting breath)

(distant religious music)

"Lord God, we all praise you"
(Johann Sebastian Bach)

(exclamation of surprise)

[Lyudmila]
It's Bach, isn't it?

Yes.

A concert for harpsichord.

[musician]
Are you Russian?

You are looking for someone ?

No, I heard you play.

I am a pianist.

Well, I was.

Do you want to play ?

It won't bother anyone.

This church is only used
for meetings.

(sigh)

"Moonlight"
(Claude Debussy)

Help me please.

I have to call my father in Moscow.

I don't know anyone here,
I don't know where to go.

I do not understand.

Who are you ?

I didn't do anything,
but the police are looking for me.

If they find me, they'll k*ll me.

Why ?

Because of my father,
he is an important man.

They used me against him,
I ran away.

If I help you

I will have problems.

(dramatic music)

I have a husband

and two daughters,
I don't want any problems.

I'm sorry.

[policeman] Is anyone up there?

[musician]
Hello.

I used to play the organ,
but I just finished.

[policeman] Has anyone entered
the church?

[musician]
No, nobody.

Wait, I'm going down.

Take that.

[Yemeline] Lyudmila must not have
given the numbers.

[Yemeline] We have to find her.

- What's this ?
- A fried cheese sandwich.

Without money or papers,

it has only one possibility:

the French Embassy.

She is under surveillance.

Just like their phones.

She will suspect it.

She will hide.

If she's lucky, it might last.

You have to force it...

to contact us.

I have an idea.

(slow music)

(the phone is ringing)

Thank you, Susanna.

(dark music)

[Anne] Mr. Valentin, your medication.

Miss Delmas?

You have to take your drops.

Where is my husband?

He is in Germany.

In West Germany?

Yes.

He is fine ?

Yes. Did you talk
about our last meeting?

Non.

To no one ?

Non.

It's good.

You know, it's ridiculous.

Charles can't be a communist.

And if he was,
how could I find out?

[Larry] You are intimate
with his daughter, Marie.

She lived in Moscow,
10 years ago,

when Charles was working
at the French Embassy.

Non...

I can't bring her into all this.

(mocking sigh)

It's already the case,

like you, your husband, your niece...

Martine.

[Larry] Charles' life
in Moscow interests me,

his habits, his acquaintances.

He's not telling us the whole truth.

[Anne] I can't.

(eerie music)

(big inspiration)

[Larry] Anne,

without us, your husband would be dead.

Help us

and I continue to protect Francis.

[in English]
I promise you.

Now ?

Now.

(nervous breathing)

(telephone rotating disc)

Yes, Mary? It's Anne.

No. Everything is fine.

I wanted to know
when you would be free.

Yes, at the park with the children.

Perfect.

No, Paul always slept on his back
when he was a baby.

But Marie, you can't
trust a magazine.

All right, Wednesday.

(she hangs up)

(Larry acquiesce)

Your husband is
lucky.

[Charles] It's not a suicide.

It's from Olga?

(Charles acquiesce)

[Larry] To tell us what?

That the crisis is major in Moscow.

Bakharin dead, the army is out of the race.

The Kremlin and the KGB control
the orbital b*mb project.

The White House
has already been informed,

during a briefing two days ago.

I see.

Gentlemen,
leave us, please.

Please thank you.

How did
President Johnson react?

He picked up the red phone.

Unsurprisingly, Brezhnev denied
the existence of the orbital b*mb.

Sure. And ?

The president wants
France to get involved.

He will ask for military assistance
from Europe.

As a member of NATO,
you have no choice.

Are you preparing for w*r?

At this stage,

the president needs
to understand the situation.

There's too much shadow
around the Orbital b*mb,

starting
with the death of Bakharin

and the numbers that Luna has with her.

France will never engage
in an armed conflict. You know it.

Charles, the b*mb
could be headed for Paris.

We are on the same side!
You need to talk to Olga.

He will tell us about the numbers.

Olga does not work
on demand.

Well, find another solution.

We need to talk to Radagast.

Of course, he is guarded around the clock
in Moscow,

but he was the one who got
the figures in Algeria,

and he alone can tell us
what they are for.

And maybe we'll know

which panics the Russians
to the point of k*lling one of their generals.

(intriguing music)

[Francis] That's it, here we are.

It'll be OK.

[doctor] Let's go. Pass by.

Very well.

[Charles] Give me a minute.

[nurse] Slowly, slowly.

[doctor] Hello, sir.

[doctor] Be very careful.

Thank you.

- Have you found Luna?
- Not yet.

- What about the KGB?
- No more.

But they deploy big resources.

She was going to give me the numbers.

Let me go back there.

But to do what ?

- What did you talk to him about?
- Of your return.

(dramatic music)

- You're okay ?
- How are you.

[Hortense] Hello, Mr. Mareuil.

[Francis] Hello, Hortense.

Are you doing well ?

Very well thank you.

Give.

- Dad !
- Oh, Paul.

How's it going ?

Look at my Meccano rocket
that I made.

She is magnificent.

Why aren't you at school?

[Anne] Good, Paul,

please have a taste.

Come on, Paul. Come.

(sigh)

[Anne] Paul was fired for 3 days.

He forged your signature.

It's absurd,
he only gets good grades.

Why did he do that ?

He said you couldn't sign
because you were dead.

What ?

What did you tell him about my absence?

You were on a trip.

Anne, I left for six days.

You haven't been with us for weeks .

And ? That doesn't make me dead.

What do you think
I told him you were dead?

I was afraid it was true,

call me
as you were called for your father.

I asked Charles for news,
he refused, so yes, I was scared.

And Paul felt it.

One evening he came over, hugged me tight
and said, "I'm here."

Your son is trying to fill the void
you leave.

[Anne] Don't become like your father.

[Francis] Don't worry.

[Anne] Come back and live with us.

(groans of pain)

(shrill squeaks)

(rapid breathing)

Mr. Hiriart,
why did you get up?

- I can't stay in bed.
- Rest.

I'm in pain,
I need more morphine.

The doctor said no,
you already have the maximum dose.

- Please.
- Rest.

You hurt me!

- Please...
- No!

It's 3am, go back to bed.

(panting breath)

(groans of pain)

(someone approaches)

[Virgil] I'm sorry.

(he's coughing)

I didn't mean to hurt you.

[nurse]
How many did you take?

How long
have you been addicted?

(dramatic music)

[in Russian]
Once again.

The gardener in his shed,

le point A,

goes to his vegetable garden, point B.

Which route is the shortest?

All paths are the same.

Maybe I should explain all this
directly to your son.

Listen,

again,
and I will understand everything.

[Charles] How are you, Francis?

I repeat the procedure?
We still have time.

The line is secure,
the LED lights up,

Svetlana poses
as a nurse, diversion,

Radagast is alone, I talk to him.

You will have very little time.

(suspense music)

(communication signals)

(audible signal)

[Charles] Good, Svetlana ...

- [in Russian] Can we start?
- Yes.

[Charles] Sasha,

Pierre.

(automatic message in Russian)

(background hubbub in Russian)

(the phone is ringing)

- [in Russian] Hello?
- I listen.

Natalia Antonovna, Botkin Hospital.
Boris Golubev?

Call back in two minutes.

(he hangs up)

(telephone rotating disc)

(actuation)

(the phone is ringing)

(the hubbub ceases)

[in Russian] Hello?

I need to talk to Letov.

He is on break.

[Sacha] I'm listening.

Botkin Hospital called.
They want to talk to Golubev.

A second.

Yes it's good.

(sigh of relief)

Francis, is it good?

(background hubbub resumes)

Yes.

[Svetlana] Hello.
Natalia Antonovna, Botkin Hospital.

[Russian guard] I pass it to you.

This is Botkin Hospital.
They want to talk to you.

Boris Golubev.

[Svetlana]
Hello, this is Natalia Antonovna.

I work with Dr Skutin.

Your medical file is problematic,
it is incomplete.

[Svetlana] I have a few questions
to update it.

Is it really necessary?

Please, it won't be long.

All right, I'm listening.

(bell)

[Svetlana] Let's start with your weight,
if that's okay.

In the 76 kilos.

I've lost a bit of weight lately.

I don't know precisely.

(bell)

You are alone ?

Yes.

Pr Golubev, Francis Mareuil.

Speak, the line is secure.

Hello.

I have to raise the meter.

It is not the moment.

He will be back.

You will give your blood group
in Russian.

This is our signal, okay?

Yes.

We have already postponed once
because there was no one.

If I don't pick it up,
they'll cut it all off.

This evening.

Alright, but hurry.

The orbital b*mb,
you know it's real.

Yes.

She communicated figures
to the probe.

- Yes.
- Do you remember which ones?

Non.

[Francis] What are they for?

[Francis] Professor?

I won't tell you.

Why ?

I am not a traitor.

- Farewell.
- Wait !

Everything is in order. Thank you.

I will find your daughter.

Do you know where she is?

In Czechoslovakia.

Say what the numbers are for
and the French services will find it.

If she's not with you,

it's that the KGB got it.

[Francis] No.
According to our information...

My blood group

is O negative.

No heart history?

Non.

Thanks, I have all the information.
Good day.

I have been reached

of tuberculosis.

Tuberculosis ?

I was treated by doctor Orlov

in building B23,

in pulmonology.

[Boris] It was...

in 1959.

[Boris] They have

the information you are missing.

Thank you so much.

Try to learn as much as possible.

Naturally.

(sigh)

[Charles] Well, he wants to help us,

what he told us is a code.
it must be deciphered.

We need to look for a Dr. Orlov
or anyone of that name

around Radagast.

-Larry?
- [in English] I'm investigating on my own.

[Charles] Fine.

Does that mean anything to you, Orlov?

Non.

(strong inspiration)

[Charles] Orlov,
we have to find out who it is.

(baby chirps)

[Paul] Look, there's Mary over there.

(Mary hums)

(nervous breathing)

I forgot something
at home.

- It's going to rain, let's go home.
- But Mom...

Don't argue, come.

Hello, Mrs Mareuil.

Missing your date?

I want to talk to your boss.

One.

- [Paul] No, I want to stay here.
- I'm telling you to come.

[Anne] We'll go back to it later,
at the park.

[Paul] Oh...

(the phone is ringing)

[Paul] I know where we can put that.

It's okay, Hortense, I'm going.

Hello, Anne Mareuil speaking.

Agreed.

(intriguing music)

[Paul] There.
Oh yes, we put that there...

- [Anne] I'll be right back.
- [Hortense] Alright.

[Anne] See you later, darling.

Anne, hello.

Are you sure
that Contignet works for the KGB?

Enough to come see you.

Could Charles be dangerous
to my husband and me?

What do you know
of your stepfather's death?

What the SDECE told us.

He stopped providing documents
for the KGB and they k*lled him.

Charles knew?

Could he be involved?

Who knows ?

I want to make a deal with you.

I do what you ask of me.

In exchange,
no matter what I find,

you push Francis
to quit espionage.

I can't decide
for your husband.

Get him a job at NASA.

You will win, it is excellent.

We are going to live in the United States.

[in English] Deal done.

Everything will be fine.

(barking)

(clink of coins)

[operator]
Good evening, what can I do for you?

- Do you speak russian ?
- [operator] Of course.

I would like to call Moscow.

[operator] You cannot make
international calls from a phone booth.

From where, then?

[operator] Not from a booth.

(the line is cut)

Excuse me, how can I call...

[man] Excuse me?

[Lyudmila] What?

(change)

[man] Thank you.

Tell me,

this man, Boris Golubev...

- What happened to him ?
- [man] He was imprisoned.

(eerie music)

No one is called Orlov
around him.

Need to broaden the search

to other design offices
by simulating the year 1959.

Everyone go to dinner,
the canteen closes in 30 minutes.

[agent] Can I bring you something?

It will be fine, thank you.

- Francis, do you want something?
- No thanks.

(door closing)

This is the record of his promotion
to the conservatory.

There's a turntable, if you want to listen.

If you had any news,
would you let me know?

Obviously.

[Francis] Do you think the KGB
found her?

[Charles] I hope not.

(piano music)

There's an OKB-23?

Yes, it was led by Vladimir...

...Miasishchev, disbanded in 1960.

There is no Orlov
in the list we have.

Did he really say "they", plural?

- [Charles] Mmm.
- Orlov, is it plural?

Yes, it means "eagle".
In the singular, it is "orel".

[Francis] Aigles, B ...

23, 59.

[Francis] Eagles-B-23-59.

- Eagles-B-23-59.
- [Charles] Eagles-B-23...

There is the Douglas B-23,
the American bombers.

"Eagle", "eagle"...

"Eagle"...

[Francis] B-23-59.

I know this name.

I'm sure,
I read it in a NASA file.

"They" are the Americans.

Americans have what we lack.

(nervous laughter)

Sorry, I didn't want to wake you up.

[Anne] Are you leaving?

Yes, I went to change.

[Anne] Wait, I'll help you.

I believe you are wrong.

(soft music)

Why are you playing the spy?

Your dream has always been space,
nothing else.

It's still your dream.

Do you know how I know?

Come see.

[Anne] Look at her dream.

It's the one you gave him.

Maybe you're
in someone else's dream,

maybe Charles's.

It's not a question.

I understood that you had no
right to speak about it.

I know that sooner or later,
your dream will take over.

[Francis]
My father's business,

I will pick them up tomorrow.

If you still want me.

Mr. Hiriart, addiction is a disease.
You need to get help.

(Virgil breath)

What happened
is noted in my file?

I have to.

And no one came or called?

You mean your family?

(Virgil laughs)

Yeah.

Yeah, from my family, yeah.

(mocking laughter)

(Virgil sighs)

(church bells)

(church bells in the distance)

(jazz music)

[in English]
What a pity, Virgil.

I can explain everything.

Does that date from your hospitalization
in 1961?

Yes.

A drug...

Succeed in hiding it from us for four years,

it's impressive.

I manage the problem.

Ask my doctor.

It's a matter of a few weeks.

There will be a bit of paperwork
to wrap it all up.

I count on your cooperation.

[in French] Farewell, Virgil.

[in English] What a waste!

(disturbing notes)

(jazz music fades)

[Francis] Here's a piece
of the Eagle B-23,

a communication device
designed by NASA in 1959.

you are on earth

and want to control a satellite,
a probe, something in the air...

An orbital b*mb.

You send an encrypted message.

The b*mb confirms its receipt
by sending new digits.

[Francis] These figures are received...

by the Eagle B-23.

The Russians were inspired by it
for their system.

This device was in the probe
that crashed in Algeria.

You can send a new order,
and so on.

Normally,
these numbers are retrieved on Earth.

I guess the b*mb
had a problem, overheating,

which damaged its
long-range radio system.

His signal has weakened.

The army took advantage of the dispatch of the probe
to approach the b*mb,

pick up his signal
and retrieve the numbers.

Without them,
the orbital b*mb is just a satellite

out of control, on its own,

but carrying a nuclear charge.

(dramatic music)

As its orbit is too low,
it falls.

Will she crash?

Within two weeks.

Somewhere between Poland

and the Atlantic.

Those numbers, does Luna have them?

Yeah.

[Colonel Loridon]
We have to find her before the Russians.

(frantic beeps)

(intriguing music)

[officer] This is the police,

how can I help you ?

I have a message
for KGB agent Dimitri Yemeline.

Please note, this is important.

Emeline.

Tell him exactly
what I'm going to tell you.

Ici Lyudmila Golubeva.

I have the numbers.

You have two days to free my father
and move him to the West.

In 2 days,
I will call this number back at 2 p.m. sharp.

If my father is in the West,
I will surrender.

It's the b*mb's distress signal.

It should crash 40 km from Paris.

Charles is manipulating you,

- he lies to everyone.
- What are you talking about ?

The French must

retrieve the Orbital b*mb
and destroy it.

[Virgile] Francis is there?

- [Anne] Do we know each other?
- I need help.

[in Russian] I have to call France.
Help me.

Get out of my house.

She will contact us.

Otherwise, it will be w*r.
