[announcer]

Train 2781 arriving on Platform A.

[woman] You gotta tell me this.

[woman sighing]

Oh, there it is. Okay. Hold on, sweetie.

[train hissing]

[woman] Okay, come on, honey.

[announcer] This is a Red Line train to Judiciary Square.

When boarding, move to the center of the car.

[indistinct chatter]

[music fades]

[train hissing]

Ma'am, uh, you can take my seat.

No, it's all right.

No, doctor says I gotta do one good deed a day, for my health.

- Come on, please?

- [woman sighing]

- [man] Let me take that for you.

- [woman] Thanks.

Someone raised you right.

[train hissing, chiming]

[man chuckling]

[PA chiming]

[announcer] Next stop, Gallery Place.

[tense music playing]

[PA chiming]

[announcer] Stand clear, doors closing.

[sinister music playing]

[train doors closing]

[woman 2] Oh, man.

Uh, when's the next one?

Can't be too long.

[sinister music swelling]

Is that a?

Yeah.

- Do you know how to?

- No.

[passengers gasping]

- [passengers exclaiming]

- [alarm blaring]

Hey, FBI.

I need everybody to exit the train

into the tunnels

quietly and calmly, right now.

- [man 2] There's a b*mb!

- [passengers yelling]

Calmly!

[girl] Mommy!

[door creaking]

[passengers clamoring, screaming]

[girl] Mommy!

[man] Hey. Hey, you okay?

I got you. Come on. Let's go.

[woman yelping]

[man] Come on, go.

Let's go.

[timer beeping]

[woman whimpering]

[woman] Penny?

[woman groaning]

Penny.

Penny?

I'm here.

[woman sobbing]

[woman grunting]

[woman] I got you.

[sinister music swelling]

[music stops]

[high-pitched ringing]

Concussion probably.

We'll have an EMT check you out.

How many are dead?

Just one. Could have been a lot worse.

Stay here.

[helicopter blades whirring]

[indistinct police radio chatter]

[dramatic music playing]

[reporters chattering indistinctly]

Hey, that's that's him.

[man 2 gasping]

Hey.

That's the guy.

sh*t.

[car horns honking]

[man grunting, panting]

[man 2 panting]

[suspenseful music playing]

[man breathing heavily]

[bottles clattering]

[man grunting]

[man 2 grunting]

[both grunting, straining]

[man 2 grunting]

[both grunting]

[both panting]

[tires screeching]

[man grunting]

[man groaning]

[music fades]

[woman] Drinks are in the green room.

If you need any food, let me know.

I think I'm too nervous to eat anything,

but thank you.

First time doing a TED Talk?

A year ago, I couldn't get tickets

to one of these.

[woman] Now you're the big sh*t

people are here to see.

Good for you.

I'm not so much a big sh*t yet.

- Let me get you mic'd up.

- [woman 2] Okay. [sighing]

[exhaling]

"In cybersecurity, it's hard to tell

the good guys from the villains."

"Early in my career,

I was tempted to break into systems

that were off-limits."

"But then I realized

the more fulfilling challenge

was to work to stop the people

who violated our privacy

and stole from our personal data."

[breathing deeply]

- Here you go.

- Thank you.

Teleprompter's loaded.

I'll give you a warning before we start.

Okay. [chuckling]

- Thank you. You're so sweet.

- [woman] Good luck.

Hey.

Hey.

Look what's here.

Is that the seed-funding documents?

[dramatic music playing]

They're ready for your signature.

[giggling]

- Can you believe it?

- I sure can.

- You've worked your ass off.

- Oh, we all have.

[opening theme music playing]

[alarm beeping]

[man sighing]

[tense music playing]

[computer trilling]

[computer chiming]

- Thank you.

- [man] You're welcome.

[knocking on door]

- You asked to see me, ma'am?

- [woman] I did. Come in.

I'd like to show you something.

When are you gonna confess

your involvement

in last year's D.C. Metro bombing, huh?

Good to see your mom

let you out the basement, Elliot.

We actually have proof

that you were involved in the bombing.

Okay, so Elliot Rome ambushed

Wait.

Here comes the big finish.

- [man] My father loved this country.

- [Elliot] He sold it out.

- You think he k*lled himself in order to

- He d*ed in a car accident.

He was never charged.

Keep his name out of your g*dd*mn mouth.

- [Elliot] k*lled himself in an accident.

- [man] f*ck off.

You think, uh,

Deputy Director Hawkins saw this?

He's the one who sent it to me.

Great.

I always find a way to piss him off.

Look, I

I was keeping my cool.

- Until Elliot Rome mentioned your father?

- Yeah.

The Rome Tome is a bunch of

conspiracy-theory trolls spreading lies.

It's not enough that I believe in you?

That the president knows

you were a hero that night,

not some deep-state accomplice?

It'll all be fine

if you can just learn two words.

No comment.

Go ahead. Try it out.

Let me hear you say it.

No comment.

Two simple words and Elliot Rome

goes looking somewhere else

for his next viral video.

- I got it, ma'am.

- What was our deal?

You pay your dues in Night Action,

you put your time in

in that hellhole of a room,

manning a phone that never rings,

and better things will come your way.

But you need more than just me to sign off

on a promotion. You need Hawkins too.

How do you think this video convinces him

that you're ready for the next step?

- Probably doesn't.

- [woman] Okay.

I'm headed to Maryland

for a think-t*nk thing

with the Scotch and Viagra crowd.

Say a prayer for me.

Oh, that file's for you.

Mark it up for me and leave it on my desk?

Yes, ma'am.

Also,

listen, I really appreciate

everything you've done for me.

No comment.

[upbeat music playing]

[man sighing]

[man] Peter.

Just the man

the president was inquiring after.

She'd like for you

to come in early tomorrow.

Same assignment?

[man] Yep, the president's

pickup basketball game.

She also asked why you're throwing

your life away at the FBI

instead of working for me

in the Secret Service.

I'm not dumb enough

to take a b*llet for someone

just 'cause they got more votes.

[indistinct chatter]

Sutherland.

- [grumbling]

- See you tomorrow, G-man.

Still waiting on that crime-trend report.

Diane Farr pulled me off it

to analyze intel

on the new domestic terrorism paper.

That report is need-to-know.

I guess she thought I needed to know.

And what position in the FBI

does Diane Farr occupy exactly?

None, sir.

That's right.

She's the president's chief of staff.

So explain to me how an FBI agent

gets sucked into the White House

to take orders from her.

It's how she explained the job

when she offered it to me.

[Hawkins] You report to us both.

You seem to have forgotten

that half of the equation.

I've been here for five administrations.

You might wanna consider the wisdom

of hitching your wagon

to someone in the political class.

Yes, sir.

[Hawkins] I want my report

by the end of the week.

[whispering] Yeah.

[tense music playing]

[Peter sighing]

[dramatic music playing]

[keypad chiming]

- [crickets chirping]

- [car approaching]

Aunt Emma.

- Hi!

- [woman chuckling]

- How was Rome?

- [Emma] Oh, crowded.

I did throw a penny

in that fountain for you.

Uncle Henry. How was the conference?

Well, no free booze.

It was an outrage.

These things were much better

before PowerPoint.

Oh, here, I can take that.

I cleaned the house for you.

You didn't need to do that.

Uh, I don't wanna be that guest.

You're not a guest.

You're family.

We've consulted lawyers and apparently,

we're legally obligated to endure you.

[sighing] How much longer

are you willing to endure me?

What's wrong? Your startup?

How bad is it?

The board officially fired me.

Oh, sweetheart.

Oh, I'm so sorry.

We'll talk about it over dinner?

Yeah. I made a lasagna.

- Might as well sh**t my cardiologist.

- [all chuckling]

I need to personally file for bankruptcy.

After the data breach, the ransomware,

all my clients bailed,

and the funders turned on me.

No. Rose, that's terrible.

There's no chance of saving the company?

Sure, just not with me running it.

I had everything I owned invested in it.

Well, you can stay here

as long as you need.

I don't have any money.

Honey, that's what "bankrupt" means.

[all laughing]

[dramatic music playing]

- Bankruptcy.

- [Rose] Bankruptcy.

[sniffling]

[crickets chirping]

[sinister music playing]

- [Emma] That should be everything.

- [Henry] So we're good?

[Emma] It's hard to say.

- [Henry] We can't run?

- [Emma] Not with Rose sleeping upstairs.

[Henry] So then we fight.

- [Emma] How many they'll send?

- [Henry] Maybe two.

[Emma] Don't you think

they're surprising us?

Maybe we surprise them.

[Henry] Wouldn't be the first time

we managed to turn the tables.

[Emma] We just need to get through this,

then we finish up the job.

Right now, we need to burn the documents,

and then what?

- [Henry] Any luck?

- [Emma] The call won't go through.

[Henry] Landline's out, cell signal too.

Have to figure out how to warn Osprey

if they're coming for us.

- [Emma] They'll come after Osprey.

- [Henry] Seven days until they try again.

[Emma] What about the engineer?

- The files?

- [Henry] What about them?

- How we warn people?

- That the country's in trouble?

That no one in the White House

can be trusted yet.

[Henry] I don't know, but we burn

what's here, so they can't get it.

- [Emma] Then what?

- [Henry] The woods.

[Emma] How do we warn Osprey?

I don't know.

Am I destroying what's here or not?

[Emma] Yes, yes.

[Rose gasping]

[Emma] Rose. Oh, sweetheart.

What's happening?

Why do you have a g*n?

Why aren't the phones working?

The electricity? What are you burning?

Rose, Rose, listen.

Can you listen to me, all right?

This is not fair,

and I can't tell you

the whole story right now,

but someone is outside.

All right? And you have to pay

you have to pay attention to me.

We need to make sure

that you you stay safe.

Who's outside?

We need to finish some things here first.

Take this.

Go to the Feiner's house down the hill.

Use their phone.

Call this number. Say these words.

What does this even mean?

- And it's important not to panic.

- Go out the back.

No, upstairs.

They might be watching that door.

Call this number, say "Night Action,"

and then tell them

those exact words in that exact order.

- Tell them we need help.

- I don't understand.

You don't have to understand.

You just have to go.

Go.

- And you?

- [Henry] We'll be fine.

- Go.

- Now.

- Okay.

- [Emma] Go, go!

[sinister music swelling]

She is a survivor.

[g*n cocking]

[music fades]

[crickets chirping]

[floor creaking]

[line zipping]

[Henry gasping, choking]

[Emma grunting]

[Henry gasping]

[intense music playing]

[Emma grunting]

[both grunting]

[Henry gasping]

[Henry exhaling]

[Emma shouting, grunting]

[Emma straining]

[silenced g*n f*ring]

[intense music playing]

[Rose panting]

[breathlessly] Okay.

[phone beeping]

Okay.

[phone ringing]

[suspenseful music playing]

[phone ringing]

Uh, yes, go ahead.

Um, Night Action.

Uh, they they

they told me to tell you that.

Code, please.

Uh, um

Pen. Clock. Door. Fire.

[Rose] Uh, hello? Are you still there?

Is this, uh, Sidewinder or Gazelle?

What? I I don't understand.

What street did your best friend

Elaine live on?

I I didn't have a friend

named Elaine, okay? I

Who are you? Who did I call?

[Peter sighing]

Look, I need to keep this line open.

You've reached a wrong number.

No, no, no, please, please.

My Aunt Emma, Emma Campbell,

her and my Uncle Henry are in danger.

They told me to call you.

[Rose breathing heavily]

[Rose] Hello?

[Peter] Yeah, I'm listening.

They're in danger. There's intruders,

and I and I think they're after me too.

How many intruders are there?

[Rose] Um, I I think two.

I I saw him.

I saw one of them. I saw his face.

Okay, where are they? I need an address.

Uh, 54 Wildwind Lane, in Stone Ridge.

[Peter] Are you with your aunt and uncle?

Uh, no.

Um, they're they're at the house.

I'm in the house down the hill,

the the Feiner home.

I need police

to a 54 Wildwood Lane in Stone Ridge.

We have assets in danger,

two known assailants.

Send a patrol to a nearby house,

last name registered Feiner.

- Wait, wait, who are you talking to?

- [Peter] I'm getting them help. You too.

Contact Farr and Hawkins.

We have a Night Action alert,

Sidewinder and Gazelle.

[breath shuddering]

Oh my God, what's happening?

It's gonna be all right, okay?

- What's your name?

- Uh, Rose.

Okay, Rose, I'm Peter. I'm gonna help you.

[sinister music swelling]

He's coming.

[Rose breathing panicked]

What do I do?

What room are you in?

- [crying] Um, I'm in the kitchen.

- Is there a basement?

I I don't know.

- I see some stairs though.

- Go up the stairs.

[Rose] Okay.

Okay, now what?

[Peter] Is there a bathroom?

Yes.

Okay. Does the door lock from the inside?

- Uh, yes.

- [Peter] Listen carefully.

Lock the door. Close it,

but do not go inside the room, understand?

Okay.

[door lock clicking]

[suspenseful music playing]

[whispering] Now what?

[Peter] Okay, very quietly

go to the furthest bedroom.

Find a closet and get inside it.

- Hey, Rose, are you there?

- [Rose] Hang on.

[floor creaking]

[breath shuddering]

Rose, you still with me?

[whispering] I'm in the closet now.

Okay, good. The police are on their way.

He's already here.

[Peter] Rose?

Do you hear anything?

No.

- [door thudding]

- [Rose] Wait.

He's breaking down the bathroom door.

That's good.

It's good, all right? You see?

He's looking in the wrong place.

Just stay quiet.

Stay still.

He's coming.

The police are on their way, all right?

It's too late. [whimpering]

[Peter] Where is he now?

Okay, Rose, if he's in the room with you,

but you can't talk to me,

press the zero on your phone.

[phone beeping]

Okay, listen to me.

All right. If he finds you,

I want you to fight him.

You understand me?

[Rose's breath shuddering]

I want you to fight

with everything you have.

Fight like hell, Rose,

till we get there, okay?

[suspenseful music swelling]

[Rose breathing heavily]

[Rose breathing panicked]

[man] Rose?

- [Rose exhaling]

- [officer] It's okay. You're safe now.

Who is that? Is that the police?

- Yes, they're here.

- [Peter] Rose

[Rose] Yes?

I'm proud of you, okay? Good job.

[officer] It's okay. Come on out.

The place is empty.

- [Rose sniffling]

- [indistinct radio chatter]

[Rose crying] Thank you.

[sinister music playing]

[phone ringing]

- Agent Sutherland.

- [Diane] It's Farr. I got the message.

A Night Action with two of our assets?

Yes, ma'am.

Codenames Sidewinder and Gazelle.

The woman on the line

said Emma and Henry Campbell

were in some sort of danger.

- [Diane] There's a witness?

- Yeah, their niece, Rose.

Okay, she said there were two intruders.

Uh, she saw one of their faces.

The police have her now. She's safe.

We need to get her away from local PD,

find out what she saw.

Hawkins is on his way there right now.

Hawkins?

No, listen, we have to do this right.

I'll go to the White House, get someone

to cover the Night Action phone,

but I need you now.

I need you to get to this Rose woman

and take her somewhere.

Don't tell me where.

Don't tell anyone where,

until we can set up a debrief

in the morning for me and Hawkins.

She doesn't tell you anything.

You don't tell her anything, got it?

Yeah, got it.

Peter, if she called your number,

this is more important

than you can imagine.

I trust you completely.

Yes, ma'am.

- [indistinct chatter]

- [helicopter blades whirring]

- Miss Larkin?

- [Rose] Yeah.

I'm Jamie Hawkins,

Deputy Director of the FBI.

Where's my aunt and uncle?

I'm very sorry, but they were

both deceased when we arrived.

No.

Everyone loved them.

Will someone just tell me

what's really going on?

- What's actually happening here?

- We're trying to put that all together.

I came straight from the White House

when I got the news.

You work in the White House?

Yes.

And maybe you and I can talk,

and we can figure out

what happened here tonight.

Deputy Director Hawkins.

[Hawkins] What are you doing here?

Uh, Diane Farr sent me

to take Miss Larkin.

You're Peter?

- Rose.

- [Hawkins] Take her where?

I thought we went over this.

Farr doesn't have the only say.

- What does she think she's doing?

- Sir, I don't know.

But she said she sent over

authorization from the president.

It should be in your inbox.

[indistinct police radio chatter]

Hi.

Hi.

Look, um, we're gonna, uh,

get you some new clothes, okay?

Yeah.

Guess you made your choice, didn't you?

I'm gonna take you away

from all this, all right?

Come on. Come with me.

Who do you work for?

The FBI.

Where are you taking me?

My apartment.

I just, uh,

I need to grab something real quick.

My aunt and uncle,

my whole life they told me

they worked in acquisitions.

Conferences in London,

conventions in Vegas.

But apparently,

that was all complete bullshit.

Who were they really?

I don't know.

I'd never heard of them before tonight.

But you're the one who answered that call.

You must know something.

Why were they k*lled?

Even if I knew, which I I don't,

my boss doesn't want me

telling you anything,

or you telling me anything, so

Perfect.

[door closing]

[Peter sighing]

So, what happens now?

- You'll get debriefed. Give me your phone.

- Debriefed by who?

Diane Farr,

the president's chief of staff,

um, the guy you met at the house,

that's Jamie Hawkins,

Deputy Director of the FBI,

and maybe Ben Almora

from the Secret Service.

But your phone, please.

No.

I'm trying to figure out

if we're tracked.

I do not have time to debate this.

Please, your phone?

Thank you.

Furthest door on the right,

get some clothes out of the closet.

Pack for a few days.

We leave in two minutes.

[tense music playing]

[keypad trilling, beeping]

[computer chiming]

[light switch clicking]

[Peter sighing]

[unnerving music playing]

[Peter] Clothes fit?

Uh, I I think so.

Good.

Here.

[Rose] I thought you said you were FBI.

- I am.

- But you work in the White House?

In a windowless room

in the basement, yeah.

Uh, I wanna go to a police station,

someplace safe.

We don't know what's safe right now.

We don't know who's behind

what happened to your aunt and uncle,

and I don't have time

to get you to trust me.

But what I can tell you are my orders,

which are to protect you with my life,

and I will do that.

I don't know you.

You can know me later.

Right now,

we have to get through the night.

You see something?

[Peter] No.

No, not yet.

Let's go.

[suspenseful music playing]

[door closing]

[Peter] Ready?

[Rose] Yeah.

[Peter] One-half step behind me.

Stay between the building and me, okay?

Hey, the building and me.

[police siren wailing in distance]

[car door opening]

Hey. Hey, Rose, hold this.

[man grunting]

[intense music playing]

[both grunting]

[both straining]

Who the f*ck are you guys,

and why are you after her?

I don't know who she is, seriously.

We came for you.

What?

[man grunting]

What are you talking about?

You know what kind of assh*le you're with?

He tried to blow up

a metro full of people.

[man 2] A traitor,

just like his father was.

- It's nonsense. None of it's true.

- It's all on the Rome Tome.

What was your plan here tonight?

Kick your ass.

How's that going so far?

Give me your wallets.

Give me your f*cking wallets. Come on.

We're not robbing them, Rose.

I need their licenses.

Oh, okay.

[Peter] Give them

their wallets back after that.

Glen and Kurt.

Here's what's gonna happen.

I'm gonna hold on to these,

and you're gonna wait

for agents to come and question you.

Do that, you'll get them back.

If you don't, the FBI SWAT team

is gonna hunt your asses down,

and you're gonna face more charges,

understand?

Yes, sir.

[Peter] Let's go.

[car alarm chirping]

[cell phone ringing]

- This is Farr.

- Hey, it's me, Peter.

I got to the White House.

You have the witness?

Yeah, she's fine.

We got another problem though.

A couple of Internet tough guys

came to my apartment looking for trouble.

Glen and Kurt Fensig, something like that.

I don't know, brothers, I guess.

Rome Tome guys.

Send some agents by the apartment,

they should be waiting

on the sidewalk under the overpass.

They need questioning.

Maybe a little first aid too.

Done. I'll put some men

on the building overnight

to make sure

there aren't any more problems.

Peter, take care of her.

I will.

[Diane] I'll see you in the morning.

[line clicking]

Why do they think you had

something to do with the metro bombing?

Because I I was there.

But I was not part of the att*ck, okay?

I stopped it.

I'm not a traitor, all right?

Neither was my father.

Those articles in the binders

Yeah, people accused him,

but they never actually had any proof.

Didn't even get a trial.

He d*ed in a car accident

before he could clear his name.

My Aunt Emma, she, um

[smacking lips]

she did more for me than anyone.

Why did I call you?

What do you mean?

The number my uncle gave me,

why were you the one who answered?

It's my job.

Answering the phone

in the White House basement

when people are in trouble?

Yeah, most nights I just

I analyze reports.

You get a lot of calls like mine?

Just one, actually. [chuckling]

It was it was a wrong number.

Everything feels wrong now.

[car engine revving]

What?

[tense music playing]

Get your head down. Get down. Stay low.

[truck accelerating]

[car engine revving]

Call the top number in my favorites.

[phone beeping]

[phone line ringing]

[intense music playing]

- [man] Go ahead.

- Night Action.

- [man] Code, please.

- Dog. Plate. Grass. Trunk.

This is Agent Sutherland.

I have the witness from tonight.

- [man] Where are you?

- In my FBI vehicle. We're being followed.

[Rose screaming]

[Rose breathing heavily]

Look at me.

You're good. It's just glass.

[car horns honking]

[tires screeching]

Take the wheel! Rose, take the wheel!

Peter!

[both panting]

That's the guy from my aunt's house.

Peter!

Hold on, Rose!

[Rose whimpering]

See if you can get a plate.

- No, I can't see anything.

- f*ck!

[music fades]

[crickets chirping]

[Rose] What is this place?

[Peter] It's an Airbnb.

It's under my friend's account.

[tense music playing]

Uh, no one will find us here, right?

That's the idea.

Okay.

Sorry.

[Peter sighing]

Twenty-four hours ago,

I thought my life was over.

Now I'll do anything to go back to then.

I wish this wasn't happening.

Yeah, me too.

[phone chiming]

[Peter exhaling]

[Rose] It fits.

Whose are these?

Zoe's.

She's my ex-fiancée.

[scoffing] And you just kept her clothes?

You bury her in the woods first?

No, she wanted to bury me a few times,

but she's in Texas now.

She left in a hurry.

I'm sorry.

Oh, don't be. She's a lot happier now.

You should, uh, get some sleep.

Um, there's only one bedroom.

You're the only one sleeping, right?

I work nights.

They're after me now, aren't they?

Maybe they think you saw something.

Okay? Or know something.

Look, I mean, on the call you said

you saw one of them, right?

Not very well.

Didn't you recognize him in the car?

Look, anything you saw,

or anything you know

you should tell them tomorrow

in the debrief.

They wanna help you.

Tell me everything you know first.

I can't do that, Rose. I have orders.

f*ck your orders.

Someone k*lled my aunt and uncle,

and now they're trying to k*ll me.

I'm as low-level as it gets

in the White House.

Trust me, I I don't know anything.

What is Night Action?

[Peter sighing]

It's a counterintelligence program.

Okay? I answer the phone for night agents

in distress, and I route the call.

Night agents? So my

my aunt and uncle were

People who work in acquisitions,

they don't have that number

that they gave you.

They don't have the code words either.

So by agents, you mean spies?

For how long? What were they working on?

I don't know.

Really, I I don't. [sighing]

Get some sleep.

Okay? You're safe now.

[dramatic music playing]

[crickets chirping]

[tense music playing]

[car approaching]

[door opening on phone]

[objects clattering]

[sinister music playing]

[phone line ringing]

[cell phone ringing]

- This is Farr.

- It's Peter. Somebody's in my apartment.

[Diane] What? How do you?

I I set up a live feed,

but I I think they tracked my phone,

or Rose's, but they're in there right now.

- Do you still have those guys outside?

- I'm calling now.

[intense suspenseful music playing]

I think these are the same guys

who were sh**ting at me and Rose.

[Diane] I warned them.

[loud footsteps on phone]

[man] Place is empty. No one's here.

- Did you hear that, Peter?

- Yeah.

Yeah, thanks.

Man.

[camera shutter clicking]

[police sirens wailing in distance]

Here?

Yeah, she wanted, uh, somewhere quiet.

You gonna be okay?

Yeah.

Um, I haven't thanked you for

You don't have to.

There she is. Let's go.

[crow squawking]

Thank God you're both alive.

This is Rose.

Rose, I'm Diane Farr,

the president's chief of staff.

We're gonna take very good care of you.

We're here to help.

Let's go then.

Uh, can Peter come with me?

If it'll make you more comfortable.

Unless you need some sleep?

I'm fine, ma'am.

[door opening]

[Diane] Right in here.

Um, may I use the restroom first?

[Diane] Of course.

Down the hall on your right.

Take your time.

Those two brothers

wait for the agents to show up?

They did.

I don't think they'll bother you again.

Anything on the guy

who broke into my apartment?

- Did you ID the ring or anything?

- We're looking into it.

He doesn't belong here.

This is miles above your pay grade.

The girl wants him here.

Fine, wait in the other room.

Fine.

[Rose sighing heavily]

Uh, if you need anything,

I'll just be right out here, okay?

You're not coming in with me?

It's miles above my pay grade.

Tell them the truth

about what you saw, Rose.

Okay? You can trust them.

[whispering] No, I can't.

I overheard my aunt say

there's someone in the White House

who couldn't be trusted.

I think they knew

there was some kind of mole or something.

- Who?

- I don't know.

I'm hoping it's not you,

and I don't think it's you.

I have to trust someone, right?

[tense music playing]

I'm not telling the people in there

the truth, not if it can get me k*lled.

We wanna make this

as comfortable for you as possible.

[Hawkins] Have a seat, Miss Larkin.

We have a lot to go over.

[MC] This is the Mid-West Farm Report

with Pam Jahnke.

[woman] Good morning,

and thanks for joining me on a Thursday.

I'm Stephanie Hoff

for the Mid-West Farm Report.

It's the third and last day

of the WPS Farm Show

at the EAA Grounds in Oshkosh.

The gates are open

from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. today.

Our meteorologist, Stu Muck,

will be on shortly

to share what you can expect

in terms of weather at the show.

[woman gasping excitedly]

[woman talking indistinctly]

[woman 2] Hello?

- [woman] Oh, hi.

- [baby cooing]

I'm sorry. We didn't mean to disturb you.

[tense music playing]

- Can I help you?

- No.

I just wanted

to show my husband your house.

I grew up here.

Really?

[woman] I don't get back to Racine much,

and this is Dale's first time,

and I just wanted to show both of them.

[woman 2] Aww.

Who's the little one?

This is Elizabeth. [chuckling]

She's our first.

- Can I say hi to her?

- Of course.

- Hi there.

- [Elizabeth cooing]

Yes.

Look at that smile.

[Elizabeth exclaiming]

She's beautiful.

Well, we're biased, but, yes, we think so.

I miss this age.

Both my boys are in high school now.

Well, we didn't mean to bother you,

I was just feeling nostalgic.

Wanna take a look inside?

Show 'em your old room?

Are you sure we're not intruding?

Not at all. Come on in.

Okay.

[door opening]

- [music playing over radio]

- [door closing]

It's just unreal to be back here

after all that time.

It just seemed so much bigger

when I was a kid, and now

[both chuckling]

no.

How long did you live here for?

Um, until I was 13.

Then we moved to Cleveland. Dad's new job.

What brings you back to Racine?

My grandmother.

Oh. Is she all right?

Not really.

I wanted her to meet

her great-granddaughter before she

Oh, I think she's

she needs to be changed.

Bathroom's back that way.

- Yeah.

- Thank you.

[smacking lips]

So many memories, you know?

Um

I spent my 11th birthday party

hiding out on that deck.

Had the biggest crush

on this kid, Billy Edgars,

and the one thing I wanted

was for him to come wearing

one of these V-neck shirts he always wore.

When he didn't come, I was devastated.

And my brother made so much fun of me,

and told everybody

that I was in love with Billy.

First time I ever had my heart broken.

I don't understand.

Well, my brother could be very cruel.

No, the deck.

Frank and I had that built five years ago.

Oh.

This will go faster then.
