Safe House

I'm going to talk to Parker about my promotion today.

In the worst-case scenario you're two weeks ahead of me,

you get a gorgeous little apartment in the Marais.

What if I don't want to live in the Marais?

We could live somewhere else, then.

Yeah? Yeah.

We could go to Detroit.

Detroit?

Yeah, you could meet my mom and dad.

You can meet my sister. She owns a bakery,

and she will make you fat.

I have six hours before I have to go back to the hospital.

You want to go back into bed with me?

I do.

But I got back-to-back meetings all morning.

Too bad for you.

Yeah, I know.

But I got to get in.

There's probably already 25 people

lined up outside the door, waiting.

I love when you speak French.

Satcom check.

Echo Nine Three Victor Echo Two.

Ops Center.

This is safe house 7-R. we're open for business.

Confirmed.

Any reservations?

Nothing in the registry.

Walk-ins?

Not expected. Reconfirm in three hours.

Understood.

Matt? Your cell, really?

Relax, I've got an encryption packet.

You know me, I never relax.

Watch the cholesterol, old man.

You sound like Miriam.

So, what's new in Cape Town?

Nothing, nothing.

I updated my Surveillance Target Analysis. It's complete now.

Yeah, that's an exit report. It's not due until you leave.

Exactly. Exactly. And when is that?

How long has it been?

Twelve months.

Well, talk to me in another four.

David, I'm dying here.

What's happening with the post in Paris?

One slot, 37 applicants.

Every one of them with more field experience than you.

How am I supposed to get more experience?

I'm staring at four walls all day.

I got passed up on Rome, then Berlin.

You said yourself, my evaluation was excellent.

Just put it in front of Whitford.

I know he'll see that I'm ready to go, I'm all in.

Matt, I know this has been hard,

but it's the way the system works.

Look, I'll talk to Whitford about Paris, but I can't promise anything.

Look, I've got to go.

Don't worry, I'm looking after you, okay?

Yeah, I know, I know, I know.

This is not a negotiation.

It's 10 million.

You'll get the file, and if the money

is not in the account by 3:00 p.m.,

I'll take it to another buyer.

How do we know that you won't do that anyway?

You don't.

Here you are, sir.

Alec, how are you?

Petrus, 1972.

You look good.

I do, don't I? (BOTH CHUCKLING)

So, how are things at MI6?

The usual. Same bureaucratic bullshit and appalling remuneration.

Life of a government man.

Mmm-hmm.

So...

The original file.

Dates, transactions, names.

A bargain at triple the price.

Take a look.

Hmm.

I've been waiting a long time for this.

Tobin...

What's in that box is going to make

the world a smaller place for you,

for both of us.

I got your account.

You get your cut 24 hours after transaction.

Some of our old bosses aren't going to be happy

these files are out in the open.

Do I make you nervous?

Always. Good.

You want her?

Please, listen to me.

I had nothing to do with this.

Stop.

Let's go.

Tobin, you have to believe me.

I knew nothing about any of that.

Did you know if anybody was following you?

No, I don't think anybody was following me.

I swear on my life, Tobin, I had absolutely...

(GRUNTS)

Slow down.

We're going by foot.

Head towards the square.

Move! Move! Move!

We're heading west.

Holland Street. Move, move.

Excuse me, sir. Thank you.

My name is Tobin Frost.

Linklater.

When?

Lock down the consulate.

Get me a team in the Situation Room in five minutes.

I want everything we got on Tobin Frost.

Yes, ma'am.

Is it him? Yep.

Whitford know?

I'm on my way there now.

Sir, place your finger in there until I tell you to stop.

Thank you.

So how long has he been playing in your backyard?

We're working to get you that answer right now.

Meaning you don't know.

No, meaning, we're looking into it.

The guy goes rogue, he spends nine years

selling out the Agency to all takers.

To Russia, China, Iran, you name it.

The guy is just not going to prance

into an American consulate without good reason.

All right, listen up.

Everybody off the phone.

Tobin Frost has just waltzed his way

into a U.S. Consulate in Cape Town, South Africa.

Now this man, without question,

is one of the most notorious traders that we've got.

Errington, call up his background profile.

Tobin Frost was recruited into the Agency in 1984.

He tested off the charts in aptitude for psychological field work.

His first assignment was in Lebanon, in January, 1985.

Three months later, he captured and flipped

a high-ranking Hezbollah leader.

Over the next several years,

Frost successfully questioned and recruited many high-value

individuals.

He became known as an expert manipulator of human assets,

and he literally rewrote Agency interrogation protocols.

Frost served in many active theaters,

including Libya from 1995 to 1998,

Jordan, 1998 to 2000.

During his tenure in Jordan,

Frost was suspected of leaking information to Mossad,

but nothing was confirmed.

Ten years ago, Frost went off the reservation completely.

He currently has no allegiances

and is wanted for espionage on four continents.

His last known sighting is Hamburg, Germany, in 2011.

You know, Harlan, we should interrogate Frost now.

Sweat him for everything he's got.

Once he's stateside, we have fewer options.

I have an interrogator in Yemen, can be there in eight hours.

I already have a team in Jo'burg that can be there in two.

We'll take Frost to the safe house, interrogate him there.

My people are fully capable of handling this.

This is Tobin Frost.

We'll go with Jo'burg.

Okay.

You must turn around.
