Bricklayer, The (2023)

[bunniefuu]

I'm alone,

just as we agreed.

Of course you are.

You're very ambitious...

and you know this story is gold.

Did you bring it?

You're no fan of

US intelligence.

You're a little short

on the details.

It's a good thing we met.

-How did you...

-Does it matter? They're real.

No, you can't have them.

Yes, you can take photos.

This type of scandal could

destroy the US.

Yes.

Many will die.

But you called me.

You want this story out there.

I do.

But unfortunately for you...

I want to be the one

to do the telling.

Is the CIA murdering

journalists?

German journalist Greta Becker

was found dead in a Greek hotel.

Sparking protests across Europe.

The third such m*rder

in a month.

Miss Becker was an

outspoken critic

of US intelligence

activities abroad.

Greek Deputy Minister of

Foreign Affairs...

Kostas Leontaris,

pulled no punches

when asked about the incident.

For decades, the United States

has shown zero regard

for the sovereignty

of other nations.

But the days of the

CIA treating Europe

like the Wild West are over.

Hey.

It's nice of you to show up.

I like to work at night.

Because you have no life?

Because it's easier to focus.

What have you got for me?

Jack and sh*t.

The hotel Greta Becker

was staying at has no CCTV

so I've scanned the

streets around

and the train station opposite.

Nothing.

I did see a nun

traveling with a full drum kit.

That was a new one.

Hey, I said I already

checked those.

I know.

But I might see something

you didn't.

Holy sh*t.

Sir, I've been trying

to reach you.

Check your email.

I'm in the middle of breakfast.

This is urgent.

What am I looking at?

Security footage.

Thessaloniki train station,

two days ago.

Our guys already combed this.

Why are you wasting my time?

Because they missed this.

Victor Radek.

Have you told Thessaloniki?

I haven't told anyone.

What do you know about him?

Most of his files were redacted.

Civilian born in Greece

but grew up all over.

d*ed eighteen months ago.

But they never did

find his body.

He was a covert CIA operative

working as an intermediary

between

the Russian and Greek Mafias.

Who ran him for us over there?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Yeah, we're on it.

We're on it.

Yeah, well, if we had more guys,

it would help.

Yeah, I...

Yeah, hold on a sec.

Can I help you?

Steve Vail.

So?

I'm the bricklayer.

He'll have

the number five with

provolone and some of

that fancy aioli.

But hold the peppers.

It aggravates his indigestion.

What do you want?

Can't an old friend stop

by to say hello?

Is that what we are?

Friends, enemies.

In our business, there's

no distinction.

Someone's trying to

blackmail the CIA.

They're sending messages

with bodies attached.

All journalists who have made

careers going after U.S

intelligence abroad.

They're trying to make it look

like the CIA is doing

the k*lling.

Whoever's doing the blackmailing

possesses classified information

that could bring down

our entire global network.

We think it's Victor Radek.

Radek's one of the most

dangerous men I've ever known

but he never k*lled innocents.

I watched him die.

None of this tracks.

Recognize this pretty face?

Boris Popov.

Russian smuggler, bad breath.

Two years ago, Popov d*ed

in a boating accident

outside of the port

of Thessaloniki.

Accident.

Right.

Popov was a hit

performed by Radek

commissioned by the CIA.

This photo of Popov was found

at the scene of Greta

Becker's m*rder.

You know what this

means, don't you?

It means Radek is back...

And he's got secrets to tell.

This is no longer

just a cursory fact-finding.

We need to bring him in.

That's why I want you

to go to Greece with her.

What?

Sir-

You're joking.

You know his habits,

contacts, networks.

I can brief someone else.

Someone with more experience.

We don't know who's compromised.

Right now, only the three of us

know that Radek is alive.

It stays that way.

Look I'm persona non grata

with the agency

I can't even enter

Greece legally.

This isn't sanctioned, Vail.

We're doing it off the books.

You'll be working

around the Greeks

and Interpol as well

as our own people.

Sir, I really think that

you should reconsider

sending someone

a little bit more credentialed.

I agree.

She wouldn't last 24

hours on the ground.

I was talking about you.

Enough.

This is your f*ck up Vail

and you need to fix it.

Before he starts coming for you.

Unless, of course,

you want to do it

for your country.

I'm done with my country.

Fix your own f*cking mess.

Uncle Vail!

Careful, Sylvie!

This is called a trowel.

This is a bricklayer's

most important tool.

She's a natural.

Wait, wait,

let's take a photo.

Alright.

What?

Who do you work for?

Radek sends his regards!

Surprised you changed your mind.

Cut yourself shaving?

Had a visit from some

old friends.

Oh, you brought your tools.

Can you at least pretend

to take this seriously?

I never do a job without

my tools.

That makes zero sense.

We're going on a manhunt,

not building a chimney.

If you understood

everything I said

you'd be me.

Miles Davis.

Greatest jazz musician

of all time.

I don't listen to music.

You're joking.

It's a big assignment for you.

First time in the field.

No supervisors.

I'm the supervisor.

Listen.

I'm here to find Radek.

I'll give you reports every day.

Just give me space

to do my thing.

Everything goes right,

you just might end promoted.

It's really funny.

I'll likely get blacklisted

working with you.

Why are you here?

Because I believe in

what we're doing.

Of course you do.

Everybody wants to be a spy.

Until they realize the cost.

Lost years.

No time for friends, family,

relationships

pets.

Not an issue for me.

All right.

Let's go over the operations

briefing on our way over.

Looks like we're

landing at 04...

Time to wake up.

Still Miles Davis.

We're landing.

You drive.

Take the next exit.

The GPS says to stay

on this road.

Yeah, well I gotta take a

a gentlemen's break.

Pull inside.

-What?

-Before they sh**t us.

Where the f*ck are

you taking us?

How do you like my pop-up?

Good to see you kid!

You too, old man.

What is going on here?

You're looking good.

Yeah, lots of hot yoga.

Lovely to

meet you, Kate.

Vail has told me nothing

about you.

He's told me nothing

about you either.

Patricio is my outfitter.

He's with the agency?

He's family. We served together.

So you're American?

Only when I need to be.

Oh, bless you, sweet man.

What is that? dr*gs?

You brought dr*gs on

the CIA transport?

No, you don't understand.

You can't get this

sh*t in Europe.

New kind of cancer treatment.

Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't know.

Here we go.

Come on, baby.

Hey, baby, there you are.

How you doing, girl?

She loves to hide

under the office.

Must be the rats.

Here you go.

The dog. The dr*gs

are for the dog.

Vail?

This wasn't authorized.

-This entire op, isn't

authorized.

-You know what I mean.

You can't just switch it

up on me like this.

Wanna fly under the radar,

this is how you fly.

-You can't make that decision

on your own.

-You wanna find Radek?

We need to do it the right way.

You mean your way.

You called me. This

is how I work.

Can you reset us? Top to bottom?

Let's go.

What is this?

You got a new look.

Am I to sell Louis Vuittons?

This is way too high-end

for middle-class tourists.

We're losing those covers.

My name's Torrance.

I'm a shipping magnate.

You're my wife.

So now we're married?

That's the only way to sell it.

You're too old to

be my girlfriend.

Cell phones, passports,

credit cards, driver's licenses.

I even put an iTunes gift

card in there for you.

She doesn't like music.

Very romantic. Thank you.

Glock 45 full size.

Serial numbers wiped.

19 round mags.

I'll take two, please.

How about you?

Or is this not authorized

either?

This one won't bite too hard.

I'll take this one.

Here.

Oh, a little less cologne

next time.

Yes, ma'am.

And for the final touch.

Hey, Rabbit.

Bring in the rosebud.

Mercedes CLS AMG V8

biturbo engine.

I bored it out to

seven point two

liters, adding 550 horsepower.

Beefed up brakes and

suspension...

reinforced the front

and rear fascia.

Added auxiliary fuel t*nk

and radar detector.

There's no airbags.

So drive safe.

No promises.

Thank you, Patricio.

Have a great trip.

You know how to reach

me if you need me.

What you don't like dogs either?

Don't wipe your hands

on the car.

Who's paying for all this?

Your favorite uncle, Sam.

I'm not going to even ask.

That's probably best.

Why don't you go clean

up and we'll regroup?

Clean up?

Yeah, we've been traveling

for 15 hours.

And we need to look our

best for where we're heading.

Thought you might want

to take a shower.

I was being considerate.

Thanks.

I guess I could use a shower.

I'll order some food.

Make it quick.

Yes, you got fries.

Vail?

Vail?

This came today, and

its a good package.

For your collection.

It's my favorite.

I listen to it all the time.

I brought you something, too.

Grizzly Pines, Montana.

Possible resettlement location.

Is it oceanfront?

Adjacent.

Sorry to interrupt.

There is a Hellenistic

Revival piece

over here you absolutely

must see.

The world thinks

the CIA is k*lling journalists.

You're out hobnobbing.

Damn irresponsible,

don't you think?

Its called networking.

What are you doing here?

I miss Greece.

You don't look happy

to see me, Tye.

The police are still

looking for you.

Oh I don't think I'm

in any danger

of being outed in this crowd.

Unless you want to turn me in.

You know, Kostas

already suspects

the US is running among here.

One call to him, they'd

name an island after me.

Wow. Foreign minister

on speed dial.

You've certainly moved up

in the world since

I last saw you.

I'm sure the agency

would be interested

to know you're back in town.

Well, I got a bigger

trophy for them.

Victor Radek.

Radek is dead.

Not anymore. The agency

believes he's

the one behind its current

PR problem.

O'Malley sent you.

Mhm.

-Why aren't they sharing

their intel?

-They think there's a mole.

Radek's supposedly

in possession of some

doomsday intel.

You know what it is?

Well, you seem to know

a lot more than I do.

Which is pretty frustrating,

considering I'm head

of f*cking station.

I heard. Congrats.

Look, I'm here because

need your help.

Radek and I used to throw

cash to an off-sh**t g*ng

when we needed dirty work done.

We dealt with a guy called Sten.

You've been gone too long.

Sten is now Denis Stefanopoulos.

He got clean?

No, he got smart.

He runs the Boheme Club

out on the beach.

That's quite the jump

for him, too.

Seems I should have

stuck around.

I might be president.

So long Tye.

Wait.

If Kostas finds out you're here,

he'll make an example of you.

He's running his own

investigation,

just wait until I get

his next brief.

We can cr*ck this together.

You don't get to ask

me to wait anymore.

I did it once.

Torrance.

Look at you, Sten.

Hey, got yourself one of these.

It's Mr. Stefanopoulos now.

And yes, I've been

very fortunate.

Some gambles have paid off.

A lot has changed since

you disappeared.

Oh, I didn't disappear.

I just had other appointments

to keep.

Where'd you go?

Didn't you hear I got married?

Spent the last six months

on honeymoon.

First Malaysia, then

the Galapagos.

Even did a few weeks in

Jawbone, Kentucky.

Well, congratulations

are in order then.

Come on. Come on in. Come on,

sit down, have a drink.

I'm looking for Radek.

Radek's dead. You know that.

Sure. You know what

they say about Balkan men.

They never really die,

they just smell that way.

Business looks good. Too good

for you to be doing

this all alone.

There's gotta be a partner

somewhere behind those

velour ropes.

Just want to talk to

him, that's all.

I told you what you

already know.

He's dead.

Stick with that, then.

I'm not some small-time punk you

can just push around anymore.

I'm a respected businessman.

My word means something.

Yeah, you look the part.

Except your suit jacket's

about two sizes too big.

And I still see prison ink

on half your boys here.

Here's a tip, guys.

You don't leave the top

four buttons open

you might as well not

wear the shirt.

Judging by the cigar

smoke, you still

don't know a Cohiba

from a Don Tomas.

You know what all that tells me?

You're nothing more than

an up-jumped thug

playing dress-up.

While daddy's at work.

You should have stayed

where you were.

Cause now that you're back

it's gonna be hard for

you to leave again.

You might as well have

that drink now.

Since I have no choice.

sh*t.

You're dead!

You're f*cking dead!

Get him!

Get in!

What the hell, Vail?

This is a rental!

You couldn't have splurged

for a mid-size?

Who was that back there?

Some local thugs.

You are the worst spy ever.

There are protocols. You can't

just leave me in the dust.

Trust me, it's for your

own protection.

Oh, please. You're lucky

that I was there.

We need to swing by the hotel

for my tools give me your phone.

-Why?

-That's how you're tracking

me, right?

-No.

-I found your bug.

In my shirt collar. Alright,

give it to me

I put it on someone who

could lead us to Radek.

Nice.

Hey.

Look, if I'm gonna help you...

you're gonna need

to help me too.

Fill in the blanks.

The file says that

Radek went rogue.

What happened?

Radek was a go-between

with the Greek and

Russian mafias.

But in reality, he was...

he was performing assignments.

For us.

Assignments? Like...

like that hit on Boris Popov?

The guy from the picture?

That's right. He joined

the CIA to

get asylum for his

wife and daughter

but his cover got blown and

the Russians k*lled his family.

I saw the photos.

Radek became unhinged.

He went on revenge tour...

slaughtering Russians

all over Greece,

anyone he thought was involved.

So that's when the CIA ordered

you to take him out?

I was asked to track

him down and neutralize him.

I thought I did.

Anything else?

No.

Actually, yes. How the f*ck

did you know that I was

allergic to dogs?

Single woman, your age, no pets.

How did you know I was single?

Lucky guess.

Oh my...

t*rture, genocide.

Civilians m*rder*d.

Governments toppled through

violent insurrection.

Crimes committed not

by your enemies,

but by the US itself.

For decades the world has turned

a blind eye out of

fear and profit.

but what happens when

your allies learn

that you've been doing

the same to them?

To prevent this I

demand payment of

one hundred million US

dollars in Bitcoin.

Hard wallet delivery.

Stand by for instructions.

He's going.

And there's our bug.

You're sure this guy

is working with Radek?

He can't be doing

this all alone.

Shouldn't we be following him?

Radek would never be dumb enough

to meet Sten in public.

But Sten wouldn't be dumb

enough to leave behind evidence.

Okay. Let's toss this place up

and see what we can work with.

I'll take the office.

Anything?

I've got photos and a map

of Emporiou Square downtown.

How's the workmanship?

It's sloppy. But recent.

This is Greta Becker's phone.

The journalist that was m*rder*d

in Thessaloniki.

Alekos Melas.

"Why the US should

just go home."

The next target.

Come on!

Hey, assh*le.

On the ground.

Now.

We just talk.

Ha!

f*ck!

Kate?

Kate? You okay?

Did you take your medicine?

Three hundred hours

of field training.

It's never happened

to me before.

What, the sneeze?

What? No. That wasn't

my fault. He must

have had a dog.

I didn't see one.

I froze.

Vail, you... you could

have been k*lled.

Wouldn't be the first time.

Don't b*at yourself up about it.

It happens.

Do you ever get desensitized

by it all?

Yes.

It's Patricio.

He found out where

Alekos Melas will be later.

The next target.

Where?

I'll give you one guess.

Did a quick perimeter check.

Two fat security guards

and a cop asleep in his car.

No sign of Radek.

Shouldn't we warn Melas?

He could be in danger.

Kate, no. We don't want

to spook Radek.

Patricio, you got him, yeah?

So close I can smell

his indigestion.

Four espressos already.

Seems a bit nervous.

Twelve Apostle Church

always was your favorite

drop spot.

I love the frescoes.

Even had dinner with

some of the monks

we made Clams Kokkinisto.

That goes against protocol.

Something we were always

very good at.

I meant for the monks.

Oh.

They shouldn't be eating

past midday.

You must be surprised

seeing as I'm supposed

to be dead and all.

Surprised isn't the

word I'd use.

Angry.

More like confused, Victor.

We had a deal. I let

you go, you disappear.

Forever.

Vail, I'm blind.

What do you see?

Vail?

Vail!

I did go away.

But I couldn't help but feel

what's the word you used?

Confused. You see,

we never did find out

who blew my cover.

And I hate mysteries.

It's an itch I've needed

to scratch.

They say old wounds

are best left unscratched.

These don't feel old to me.

Patricio!

You know how efficient I can be.

It didn't take long before

all fingers pointed

in one direction.

Putin?

The agency.

That's not possible.

I would have known about it.

Maybe you did.

Maybe that's why I

sent some friends

to come and see you

in Philadelphia.

Why would the agency

blow your cover?

You know why.

One little assignment

left incomplete.

Even if that's true, Victor

what you're doing isn't right.

Blackmail. k*lling journalists.

It's not just extreme,

it's f*cking crazy, Victor.

I'm only going to warn you once.

Stay out of the way. If not for

yourself, then do it for her.

Who her?

Your partner.

You weren't able to

protect my family.

You really think you'll be

able to protect her?

Anything?

It's a tablet.

The screen is cracked.

We should still be able to

access the hard drive.

What?

I warned you.

This rope-a-dope

cowboy sh*t got Melas k*lled.

This is why we have protocols.

This is why you got

fired once already.

I didn't get fired, I quit.

A man is dead, Vale.

A civilian!

The agency is going to

get heat for this.

Okay, so which one

are we sad about?

The civilian or the agency?

Tell me.

The photo that Radek left

at the scene of the crime.

Who was it?

Luis Del Gato.

Cuban ambassador to the UN.

Del Gato? But he's...

Alive. Which means Radek

doesn't just have a list

of past CIA hits

-he has a list of active

targets as well.

-We need to call this

into O'Malley.

Kate, don't you get it?

O'Malley already knows.

Then why is it just us here?

If this list gets out

it's going to unite the

entire world against us.

Now you're starting to

ask the right questions.

I can think of two reasons.

One: O'Malley is covering

his own ass.

He was station chief

when I was here.

Radek happened under his watch.

Okay, and two?

Think about it, Kate.

Somebody has to be leaking

the info to Radek.

You think O'Malley is the mole?

I don't trust anybody

at the agency.

And you shouldn't either.

But you trust Tye Delson.

You read her in, didn't you?

At the art gallery.

Don't look so surprised.

You knew that I was

tracking you.

You didn't think

I would check the guest list.

See, you do have

the necessary trust issues.

So why won't you direct

them toward the right people?

Because I'm trying to make two

and two equal four

with you, Vail.

You keep saying that

we can't trust the agency...

and then you go and read

in the head of station.

None of this makes sense.

Tye is...

She's an old friend.

You're a hypocrite.

Don't answer it.

f*ck you.

Yes, sir.

Kate. Don't tell them.

You really are paranoid,

aren't you?

Yes, sir. Go ahead.

If the CIA is responsible

for these murders

the whole United States

will be held accountable.

Mr. Melas paid the

ultimate price,

but his death

his sacrifice

won't be in vain. Thank you.

Christ, Vail.

I'm here for my records.

To my paid vacation.

Kostas suspended all US

intelligence activity in Greece.

He's holding a big press

conference Friday

to announce the findings

of his investigation.

Does he have anything?

O'Malley doesn't think so.

But after the hit today

at the market,

it doesn't look good for us.

Did you see what happened?

Front and center.

You were there?

I saw Radek. Spoke to him.

And?

Did you know that the agency

blew his cover?

I was briefed when I took

over as head of station.

They said it was a

necessary evil.

It was a crime, committed by

the CIA against one

of their own.

From what I understand,

the Russians

were responsible

for the k*lling.

Don't you dare let the agency

wash its hands of this.

Look,

Radek made a deal. And

then one day, he

refused to hold up his

end of the bargain.

You know damn well

what they asked us

to do, and you know why

we couldn't do it.

I'm not defending them, Vale.

I'm just telling it like it is.

The agency felt betrayed.

Well, I know how that feels.

I waited for you.

I know.

Trains came and went.

I sat on my suitcase

and I waited.

Vail.

I glimpsed faces in the crowd

I kept thinking, they were you.

Oh, here she comes.

There she is.

That must be her.

They never were.

Stop.

You and I were supposed

to get out.

I just... Please.

Why didn't you come?

I... I just

I was scared.

Twenty years I've been

working at this.

This life and all the death

that comes with it.

And it is shitty and

lonely and dreary.

But it's all I know.

When O'Malley called

and offered me the job

it may have been the

wrong choice...

but I have to live with it.

You know, sometimes

the easiest choices

are the ones you don't

have to make by yourself.

When is your meeting

with O'Malley?

Tomorrow.

He's gonna want to know

about the job.

He will.

I can't do it.

The gangsters and the

business freaks, that's

that's one thing, but

the politicians?

I didn't even sign up for this.

I hear you, Victor.

But you have an agreement

with the agency.

If you refuse

you're a dead man.

They can rescind

their offer to relocate

your family.

We've been here for six months.

If the agency cared about my

family, they'd be gone already.

This puts me in a tough spot.

Not necessarily. This

This could be the out

you've been looking for.

I can't just walk away.

What if you didn't have

to do this alone?

I mean, think about it.

You, me, the girls.

I'll get them out.

No matter what it takes.

I'll see you in Grizzly Pines.

Grizzly Pines.

Yep, I just received it.

I'll be going through them now.

Okay.

Thank you.

Sleeping in?

Yeah. Got the sh*t

kicked out of me yesterday.

Body needed a reset.

Aren't you on vacation?

I like to think of it

as work from home.

My team was able to trace

the IP address from

the ransom video.

Oh wow.

Sent from an abandoned

rail yard rig outside the city.

-I

-What, what?

Forgot to tell you.

Patricio has Radek's

tablet computer.

-Vale...

-He's going through it.

He'll let us know if

he finds anything

Patricio couldn't find

flies on a horse's ass.

I need that tablet.

Could have critical information

about Radek's next moves.

My career is on the line.

Oh, your career?

Changes everything.

Vail.

Maybe you should just go home.

Look, if Kostas finds

out you're here...

it'll just prove he was right.

There's too much at stake, I...

Let me send some people

down there.

How are you going to do that?

Your station is suspended,

remember?

Look.

This is something I have to do.

Radek was my friend.

I wasn't able to save his family

maybe I can still save him.

Be careful.

Let me guess.

O'Malley wants me

on the first flight out of here.

I didn't tell him what

happened at the market.

Might not be good

for your career.

Look, it's clear to me that

Radek isn't doing this

for the money.

k*lling journalists,

the frame jobs.

He wants to punish the CIA.

The money must be

for someone else.

But then, then I started

to think.

If O'Malley's working

with Radek,

why would he send you?

And that's when I realized.

He wouldn't.

So I went through your

bag and I found

a receipt for two burner phones.

One incoming call.

I'm gonna guess that's Radek.

I k*lled Radek.

Why would I work with him now?

For all I know, you

never k*lled him.

Maybe you let him go.

Not bad at all.

Come on. We've got to get going.

I am in contact with Radek.

But not for the reasons

you think.

I'll explain all on the way.

Hi, this is Patricio.

Leave a message.

Patricio doesn't miss calls.

Come on.

Stop!

He's bait.

It's a trap.

You de-rig the platform.

Spread yourselves.

No one gets out.

Come on, come on!

We have to get out of here!

Vail!

We need to get out of here.

They're inside.

Kate, get down.

Wait!

Get back! Back!

Kate, back up!

Game over, Torrance.

I give you two options.

One, chuck your w*apon

and come in for a chat.

Two, drop dead right now.

I'll take number two,

with you any day.

I knew you'd say that.

Come on.

Release the girl, then

I'll walk over.

No, Vail!

You got ten seconds to come out.

She meets me halfway!

The girl can go,

say your goodbyes, and then

you and I can have

a little talk.

I'm sorry, Vail.

Hey,

crying is dying, kid.

We ain't dead yet.

I'm not leaving!

Shut up and listen.

Take the rear door, get

the car and leave.

-No, I'm not leaving you.

-I will meet you at the hotel.

-Don't do this, Vail, please.

-Kate,

go now, or we're both dead.

I tried to tell you.

I'm somebody now.

Yeah. Enjoy it. While it lasts!

I told you to meet

me at the hotel.

I knew Radek was unwell.

I knew the deaths of his family

would be hard on him,

but I never thought

he'd go this far.

What happened to Radek

and the CIA?

How did it get to this?

Radek was too good at his job.

The agency wanted

to promote him.

No more small-timers,

punks, gangsters.

They wanted him to k*ll

a political rival.

Who?

Kostas. Neither of us

could go through with it,

so we agreed to walk away.

We underestimated how vindictive

the agency could be.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry about Patricio.

My fault. I never

should have gotten him involved.

So what now?

What's our next move?

Radek's gone.

He's beyond saving.

No one is beyond saving.

You saw what he did.

I have to find him and end this,

once and for all.

It's O'Malley.

They've agreed to pay

the hundred million.

Good. Radek won't be

able to resist.

US embassies across

Europe have begun

evacuating due to

safety concerns,

with widespread riots predicted

if Minister Kostas Leontaris

is able to prove a link

between the CIA and

these killings.

Tune in here for the

live coverage

of the press conference

later today.

Vail?

Oh, cut the crap. I was born

on a Tuesday, but

not last Tuesday.

I knew you'd run right to her.

You must enjoy this

part of your job.

Secret meetings in back rooms?

Anything for my country.

All right, listen up.

Radek has asked

for somebody by name

to make the drop.

Anyone else and it's off.

Our rising star,

Bannon.

What?! You can't go.

We have no choice.

Come on, O'Malley.

You know Radek

only asked for her to get to me.

You're done, Vail.

Thank you for your service.

Excuse me?

I think it's safe to

say you've done

enough damage across this city.

You're out.

O'Malley,

you might be the dumbest

son of a bitch

to ever cash a government

paycheck

and that's saying something.

Bannon.

You got this?

That's what I'm here for.

He knows our faces.

So, we can't get too

close to you,

but we'll be tracking you

every step of the way.

We've got your back.

Remind me how that usually goes?

It helps to remember

we're the good guys Bannon.

I know who I am, sir.

The bitcoin is loaded

onto the flash drive.

Once Radek takes possession,

we'll grab him, bring him in.

Three stops, correct?

Affirmative.

Copy that.

I have the package.

Bingo.

I found the tavern.

This is why nobody does

business with the CIA.

They cannot follow directions.

That was a low blow, Victor.

Asking for Bannon?

I thought it was kind of funny.

No. k*lling my friend.

I warned you to not

get involved.

Seems like anyone who gets

close to you ends

up in the dirt.

So why don't you come down,

collect your money?

You and I can get real close.

Even as we speak.

You can't hide from me, Victor.

I'll never, ever stop coming.

I'm not going anywhere.

I'm tired, Vail.

And I want to make peace.

This sure is a f*cked

up way of showing it

There's only one

final hit to do.

One assignment.

Kostas?

That's right.

A list is nothing.

They're just words on paper.

But seeing, that is believing.

I'm going to broadcast

to the whole world

what the CIA has been

doing in the shadows

Victor,

you k*ll him,

countries will go to w*r,

millions of lives will be lost.

Sadly, as it must be,

I cannot suffer alone

any longer.

Goodbye, Vail.

Please, please tell

the girls I'll be

seeing them soon.

Kate, Radek is close by.

He got the payoff

he's going to assassinate

Kostas.

Get to the back alley.

This place

is rigged to blow in

about three seconds.

Move over.

f*ck.

We're gonna lose him!

-Brace yourself.

-What?

Brace!

Oh sh*t!

Come on!

Kate, hey, you alright?

Radek!

As many of you know,

my office has been aggressively

investigating the murders

of Greta Becker

and Alekos Melas,

journalists slain on Greek soil.

Many more innocent

civilians gunned

down mere weeks after

publishing articles

condemning the United

States and its

foreign intelligence

activities abroad.

Based on our findings,

I can confidently conclude

the Central Intelligence Agency

It's over, Victor.

Do you hear me? It's over.

Maybe for me,

not for you.

You have to relive

this nightmare

forever.

I'm sorry I couldn't

protect them.

Me too, Vail.

I'll see you in Grizzly Pines.

Tye.

No. It's Kate.

Someone sh*t me.

That would be the Greeks.

But given all the trouble you've

caused them, I'd call

you guys square.

You okay?

We found Radek's laptop

in the van.

The Bitcoin wallet wasn't there.

Sounds like there's one

last mystery to solve.

We don't care about the money.

That's what it's there

for, to plug holes.

Notice we're watching cartoons

instead of World w*r III?

That's because Kostas thinks

the CIA saved him.

We took the liberty of

claiming you as our own.

That must have hurt.

We found Radek's

manifesto inside of his van,

claiming he was k*lling Kostas

on behalf of the CIA.

Plus the entire hit list,

past, present, and future.

So just the truth then, huh?

Truth is subjective.

Thankfully, we found

it before anyone else.

Radek is dead. The

list is secure.

But you did interfere

after we told you

to take a hike.

So, all in all,

a job done.

I do have one question.

Why bricklaying?

It's what I know.

Paid for college.

Oh, come on.

You could be making

a k*lling out there

consulting, but you're

laying brick. Why?

Because when I hold

a brick in my hand,

I know exactly what it is

and what it will do.

Every single time.

Its form is its function.

That gives me peace.

I don't know what

the f*ck any of

that means, but it sounds good.

I didn't expect you would.

The money. I mean,

we can't just let him

get away with it.

O'Malley must have it.

He needs to be held accountable.

O'Malley will get what's

coming to him.

Not from us.

So that's it?

We just...

We just let it go?

Kate,

Radek was a complicated man.

But I knew what drove him.

I knew his weaknesses.

Guys like O'Malley,

they live for the politics.

They'll sign a death sentence

as casually as signing

a lunch bill.

That's something I'll

never understand.

Kate,

I can't fight an enemy,

I don't understand.

Well, so long, bricklayer.

See you around, kid.

Oh.

What are you doing here?

You're supposed to be

at the hospital.

Checked out early.

I was just coming

to see you right before I...

It's been a rough

couple of weeks.

I thought I'd get out

of town for a while.

Why don't I get you a drink?

Sure. Still a little

doped up on painkillers.

Should be a good combination.

Where are you going?

Maldives.

Maldives, sounds exotic.

Never been.

It's my favorite.

I listen to it all the time.

Great record.

Well, it is your collection.

Yeah.

That's why I'm here, actually.

I'd like to start

boxing them up.

If you wouldn't mind

lending me a hand.

Why don't you come with me?

You want me to go with you?

Yeah.

Get out for good this time.

Like we always planned.

That sounds good, Tye, but

you sent me to die.

It's kind of a deal

breaker for me.

I think your uber is here.

They're not here for me.

Really?

So you

and Radek,

you gave him the list.

He came to me. He knew about us.

I didn't have a choice.

So the hundred million

was just for shits and giggles.

You've already donated it to,

what's that charity you like?

Childhood obesity?

I should have left with you.

But I didn't.

And now...

I'm not the same person anymore.

Clearly.

Goodbye, Vail.

You okay?

You're welcome.

I can't believe you thought

I was dirty.

I may be a prick,

but I'm a patriot. I believe

in what we're doing here.

How did you know Delson

was dirty?

Something Vail said to me.

About knowing your enemy.

I knew Tye. She...

She was me.

Still the hell of a clean

up we had to do.

Your persona non grata

in Greece now.

And I'm sorry to say that you're

no longer welcome

in this division.

-Sir, I...

-I don't want to hear

anything else.

Pack your things.

I'm moving you upstairs.

You're not dismissing me?

You're moving up a floor.

I'm promoting you.

You think I don't know

what a prick Vail is?

You did a great job over there.

You're going to be running

your own cases now.

I'm sorry, but I...

can't accept.

You're kidding me.

I appreciate that, sir, I do.

And I do want to serve

my country, just...

not here.

Thank you.

Hey

Come on. Come on.

Alright, let's go.

I thought you said

you were allergic to dogs.

If you understood everything

I said,

you'd be me.

Bye.
