The Copenhagen Test

The story we tell

is that mosaic has an encrypted drive

with the identity of whoever placed the mole

at the orphanage.

We use a third party to get the drive into mosaic's hands

without him knowing it was from us.

Saul, don't!

These agencies ask you to do something unthinkable,

but they don't know the real cost.

The only ones that know that are the people in it.

You always intended for him to die.

Yeah.

Know why?

You needed to create a dead end.

Now the enemy has no more leads,

nowhere left to focus except on finding the drive.

My job is to protect our country

by manipulating people and sometimes

getting them killed for the sake of a mission.

The things you can't carry, Bury it away

and try not to dig it back up.

When you don't have the whole picture,

how do you know that you're doing the right thing?

Be grateful for all the things you don't know.

It was a nice change of pace

to have someone do the right thing.

I'm not supposed to give you my real name, so.

It's between us.

Last night, tiananmen square, Beijing.

The largest public space in the world was a war zone.

With orders to secure the square,

the people's liberation army of China,

three hundred thousand strong,

converged on Beijing from all directions.

Unarmed citizens and students faced tanks

and soldiers with semi-automatic weapons.

For the last five weeks,

the mass student demonstration has touched a nerve.

Soon, everyone seemed to join...

protesting against hardship, government corruption...

- Victor. - Hey, how's it goin'?

So good!

Come in. Come in.

How do you like the area?

It's...

it's very nice.

And the interview for the engineering job?

How did that go?

Promising.

Good.

Good.

This is your immigration paperwork.

Certificates of naturalization.

No one will ever bother you about it.

And this...

Is a three-year lease on the house.

Paid in full.

You've done so much for us, Victor.

I know it's not home,

but you can have a fulfilling life here.

This is not enough.

You are saying goodbye to us.

I think, given the nature of my job,

it's best if our lives don't intersect going forward.

You know how sorry I am that you got caught up

in what I was working on in China.

And I'm sorry for the suspicion.

And that you had to leave your home.

But I am glad that you made it here to this country.

Because you wouldn't have been safe there.

No one chose this, but it happened.

And I did my part.

Like I promised.

For Preston and me,

yes.

But you owe him more.

When he is born, he won't know China.

He won't know my family or Preston's family!

In america,

they don't like our faces.

We go to interview at lab, but they don't want us.

It will be hard for our son here.

Because he is like us.

Hey...

But he is also not like us.

He is born here.

American.

He is one of you.

In a country we don't know.

You are not done.

You look after him.

You promise that.

Have you picked a name yet?

Alexander.

The orphanage.

If they suspect that you're compromised, you're dead!

I've been having these moments.

It's like feedback in my brain.

Did anything like that happen

to the Cassandra test subjects?

No.

Sacrifice their entire lives

because they're doin' the right thing.

But they never have the whole story.

- Hi. - Alexander.

Natalie.

I'm not supposed to give you my real name.

Well, you're easy to pretend to fall for.

No one person

gets to be more important than the mission.

For whoever ends up watching this,

but I'm really hoping it's you, my friend.

My eyes and ears have been hacked by a nanotechnology

called "Cassandra ru-two-five-eight."

It's broadcasting everything that I see and hear,

and whoever did this is using the information

to compromise operations all over the world.

I didn't know it had happened to me.

And I wasn't a part of it.

But when the orphanage discovered the hack,

they chose not to expose it.

They kept it open to find the hackers

who were responsible.

And I agreed to that.

For the good of our country,

despite the risk to innocent lives.

I couldn't have known how far they were willing to go.

But I have knowingly

compromised classified information

at the direction of my superiors.

And there's no stopping now.

And despite my loyalty, they still don't trust me.

They watch every move I make.

I still believe in the mission,

but I know they're not telling me the whole truth.

I don't know who I can trust anymore.

If you could go back in time...

I'm not even sure of what's real in my own life.

Did you ask me something?

It's been so long, I was starting to wonder.

- Yeah, sorry, it's, it's work. - Work.

Maybe we call it a day.

Yeah. Sure.

He's being weird, right?

Lone wolf thinks mosaic's drive

identifies them as the one who placed

the mole in the orphanage,

which means they think someone close to them has flipped.

They can't trust anyone else with this.

They will show up personally.

So, this is how we catch them.

We build a trap.

Director moira asked me to relay an update

on a magnetic drive we've been trying to locate.

Based on intelligence gathered

from a parallel operation in the eu

called "storm watch,"

we believe with a high degree of certainty

that our former source, Saul clemente,

codename "mosaic,"

went to Paris shortly before his death.

Our analysts believe there's a strong possibility

he made this trip to hide the magnetic drive

somewhere in the city.

And they've narrowed it down to a three-square mile area.

We know exactly where the drive is.

We had put a tracker on it

before we got it into mosaic's hands.

This is a performing arts venue. Here.

Now, once the drive stopped moving,

we obtained access to the cameras in that location.

There are only a few, but we did find this.

He walked up to the top floor,

fifteen minutes later, he left.

Public building, lots of people comin' and goin'.

He hid that drive in plain sight.

You don't want the target to know exactly where it is yet.

Our enemy can't be ahead of us.

You will lead them to it.

Alexander and Remy will enter the country in alias.

By the time they touch down,

we should've identified the target location.

Our extraction agent, a local,

will meet them and arrange transport

to an airfield we control.

Then you're home.

Remy will go with you to the immersive performance.

The audience will be masked, not ideal for us,

but it will make our target feel more comfortable

if they wanna follow you there.

At any point after you have the drive,

that's when we expect the enemy to intercept.

Then we grab them.

You're gonna bring them in.

For questioning.

That part you won't have to worry about.

Once we have them, it's above your pay grade.

This is a modified low-dose compound

with multiple drugs.

Dissolves on the skin. It'll make them compliant.
