[bunniefuu]

I humbly request to resign from
the position of deputy director.

I have already found you a far
more qualified replacement.

Congratulations, James.

I'm honored, Elizabeth.

[WRIGHT] Investigators
discovered a burner phone

on one of the assassins.

I want to know who he was talking to.

[BILL] Greer's getting close.

What do you want me to do?

[JACK] President asked me to
stop any thr*at of convergence.

Chao Fah Sein is the only chance
I have of doing that.

- Where's the marketplace?
- What marketplace?

[GRUNTING]

[CHAVEZ] Marin just gave us
a direct line to Chao Fah Sein.

[JACK] [OVER PHONE] The path
leads to Mexico

from a port in Croatia.

We're gonna cut it off.

Mr. November.

- Hi.
- Welcome back.

[MIKE] Thank you. I was
wondering if, uh,

- Katarina was here.
- I believe she's with a client.

Would you like to meet with
someone else while you wait?

Uh, no, thank you. Can you just

let her know that it's me
and that it's urgent?

"Welcome back"?

I told you,

I-I took the whole CIA
f*ring thing pretty hard.

- Michael.
- Katarina.

Hi.

- Mwah.
- Mwah, mwah.

I'm told this is
more business than pleasure.

- Yeah. Unfortunately it is.
- Oh, don't worry.

It will be reflected in the rate.

[MAN SHOUTING INDISTINCTLY IN DISTANCE]

[WOMAN LAUGHS, SPEAKS INDISTINCTLY]

[SIGHS] Okay, Michael.

If I wasn't good enough
to be the reason for a visit,

then who was?

Olafsky.

[SCOFFS]

Seems you've really lost your charm.

We need to find him.

We're looking for a man who works

for the Mexican drug cartel.

- Uh, Mr...?
- Ryan.

Mr. Ryan, Josip Olafsky
does not deal in dr*gs.

He doesn't?

He deals in dreams.

What do you buy when you have
nothing to lose?

Experiences.

Where is his marketplace?

Every sinner in this world
knows where it is.

It's getting in that's difficult.

Okay, how do we get in?

You don't.

Without Mr. Olafsky's

express invitation,
it's-it's impossible.

And now, if you'll excuse me,

I really have to go back
to work. [CLEARS THROAT]

Please.

Surely you can get an invite.

I'm no longer one
of Olafsky's women, Michael.

Katarina, we are trying to find
a man who can stop him

from hurting anyone else.

Do any of the women here have an invite?

Yeah, all of them.
I'm surprised your friend

didn't tell you they're all spoken for.

What friend?

The crazy one.

He's been hiding in
the harbor for weeks.

Great.

Thanks.

Yeah. Good luck.

[DOOR OPENS]

Found someone with an invite.

Who?

- A friend.
- Friend of yours?

Both of ours.

[KNOCK ON DOOR]

Yeah.

- Deputy Director?
- Yeah?

I've got something for you.

Do you want to tell me from over there?

So, BizHub started operating
out of the Channel Building

in .

I've gone through
all the businesses that have

- come in and out since then.
- Jesus.

And nothing?

There might be one.

Southwest Petro.

Remind you of anything?

No.

Well, you always say that the CIA has

no imagination when it comes to shells.

[CHUCKLES]

Mainland Renewables.

That was the company that Miller used,
for Operation Pluto.

There's no proof that
these two are connected.

Well, that's the weird thing.

The paperwork for dissolution
for Southwest Petro

was filed July , .

Wait a minute.

They shut down
the day after Miller left?

Whose name is on the articles
of incorporation?

Well, that's where things
get really weird.

It's registered to
a Dominic Sanderson in Bethesda.

[JENNINGS] So, how was
your trip to Lagos?

Positive outcome, I hope.

Yes, I think so.
We have a temporary peace

between President Okoli and Ekon Ameh.

In exchange for what?

Pursuit of a common enemy.

Well, that pursuit seems
to have brought about

some unintended consequences.

- Oh?
- I-I think what Senator Henshaw

means is that the perception among

some of our committee members is that

our hearings are not your priority.

Well, compared to national security,

they aren't.

[HENSHAW] Agreed, but

that statement, it draws
a more dangerous comparison.

You're simply another Jack Ryan.

High praise in my world.

I'm not talking about your world.

I'm talking about mine.

Look, don't get me wrong.

Like the president,

I know how important it is
for someone of your, uh...

forgive the lofty term, but your spirit

to be behind your desk.

It's just, we're heading
into the home stretch here,

I want your eyes to be open
to the reality.

A lot of my colleagues
are up for reelection.

Yes, including yourself.

Right, and they... or we...

are staring down the barrels

of constituencies that are dissatisfied

with our over-involvement
in all these parts of the world.

They think that
we have plenty to deal with

- right here at home.
- And I could not agree more.

But you're telling me
to forget about our allies?

Just letting you know
where senators' minds go.

Like it or not,

you still need our approval.

Losing Jack Ryan,
that was a great first step,

but, rather than point out
any similarities

that y'all share,
I'd take a different direction.

His wake is long and getting longer.

My advice, stay out of it.

Hmm.

He couldn't have told me that
over the phone?

Senator Henshaw believes he leaves a

stronger impression in person.

- I'm sure he does.
- Mm-hmm.

Any reason you didn't think
I could handle that myself?

Oh, I wasn't there for you.

I was there to show him how many of us

want to see you confirmed,
but he's not wrong.

There's fear on his side
of the committee.

Yes, clearly a fear of change.

You may be more right than you know.

Well, what would you suggest, Senator?

Well, you got to do what's
necessary for the country

but also for yourself.

Yes.

Yes.

I understand.

No.

It won't.

They have considered the events,

and they want you in Geneva.

Geneva? But I'm...

Supposed to handle the deal
in Dubrovnik.

I'm now going in your place.

Did they say how long I'd be gone?

They did not,

but I anticipate one of two outcomes.

Both require you pack light.

Well, Mike knows that,
in order to do that,

I know that your friend here
is more connected

to Olafsky than he let on.

What?

Oh, come on, we do business.

I'm sure you've heard the whispers.

There's some kind of deal taking

You'll need some clothing.

I'll get you out. The same way we go in.

Why are you risking it?

Because women like me never grow old.

Men like Olafsky make it so.

I plan to be different.

[WRIGHT] Thank you so much for coming.

Your file says you were
a political consultant

for years before taking
your current job.

Yes. I was a, uh, strategist
for three senatorial races

and one presidential. So,

you need an adviser?

I need advice.

Clearly, in the past couple weeks,

I've proven that navigating the politics

and the politicians of this town is a

newer experience for me.

Well, this town has proven
how much it needs new.

Mm, not according
to some committee members.

Hmm. Henshaw?

What do you know about him?

I know that he has
a tighter handle on the reins

than most of his colleagues.

Why?

My former Deputy Director Jack Ryan...

- Former?
- Yes.

Jack decided it was best to step away.

I see.

We're very different creatures,
Jack and I,

but we share the same mission.

Same logic. If I'm thinking it,
he's out there doing it.

Feels like the right match.

In some ways,
but for the current moment...

It's... becoming problematic.

I would never describe Jack
as a problem.

It's for people like him that
I want to get confirmed.

But it's because of people
like him that you may not.

Hmm.

First, let me tell you something
that Henshaw won't.

[CLEARS THROAT]

This job...

You in this job, specifically,

it's bigger than any office.

It's gonna shake this
whole place to its core.

Now, with that said,

if I'm reading
between the lines correctly,

it sounds like Henshaw
came to you with some advice.

Now, however coarse that advice is,

I would take it.

[CHAVEZ] Olafsky lives in
a monastery atop of that wall.

They chose it for the elaborate
cave system that it was built on.

[ZUBKOV] You don't understand.

There's no way you get into those caves.

Or if you do, you-you'll never get out.

Which tunnel?

To the right. Where the cliff
