Thank you.

Hello. - Hello.

Thank you.

Pasha! - Hey.

How's it going?

It's good.

A bit nervous?

No.

Don't tell me it doesn't bother you to come and work here.

I don't mind. - What do you feel?

Pride.

Let me introduce you to Alexei Bakatin

who works for FSB Directorate 4.

The equivalent of... - DSEC.

Yes. Yes.

Hello, Pavel. Follow me please.

Do you know where we are going? - Yes.

Polygraph? - Uh...huh.

Then I will show you your office and introduce you

to your colleagues.

They are waiting for you.

Very well.

You know the procedure...

It's a ritual between us now.

Have you met any French people since you have been in Moscow?

No.

What were you doing at the Post office this morning?

I don't know how to say it in Russian.

Say it in any language, it's recorded.

Aa...I sent today's newspaper to my daughter.

I sent it to a PO Box under the name...

Lily Lefebvre,

which she checks regularly when I'm abroad.

I wanted her to be reassured.

We will present the cases that interest us

and you will have to say

how would the DGSE react,

what would it do,

what resources they would use.

Hello.

You will study the territories where France is present

and you will interpret the existing signals according to your knowledge.

You understand?

I'm an analyst.

Yes.

Europe Strategy.

Hello. - Hello.

I present to you your new colleague.

Pavel Lebedev.

Here's your desk, Pavel. Would you like a coffee?

Thank you.

Did you go to that park?

No.

Will you?

I don't know.

It's the French?

I want to talk to you.

Oh yeah?

So?

So, they tried to kill me, remember?

They failed.

What do you want from me?

You want me to forgive them?

Let them get fucked.

I would understand, if you don't wanna be a part of my life.

I'll call you if I like to.

And you call, if you feel like it.

And we'll see, no plans.

Yes?

It's me.

What happened?

You got sick.

What?

You have a fever.

40 degrees.

You can't go to the office.

3 days medical leave, strong treatment.

The Director knows.

Cairo?

The Mule will explain to you. She's waiting downstairs to take you to the airport.

I liked to see you less dressed.

Is it dangerous?

Delicate.

Not dangerous.

Good...

You still sleep naked?

Yes, but I got dressed to open.

Bring me a souvenir.

I have good news and bad news.

Go on.

The good news, I think I know where Pacemaker is.

Where at? - The Phenom Penh.

Cambodia?

His phone was off for over 72 hours.

The server recovered the data at the time of shutdown.

Nearby devices in the proximity were identified.

Among those phones...

there are two currently in Phenom Penh.

I concluded from this that Pacemaker is with them.

Moreover, his girlfriend received an SMS from a Cambodian number.

I don't have the exact location, but it came from Phenom Penh.

Did the Russians pick him up and take him to Phenom Penh?

Yes, it's a delicate situation.

And the bad news?

Raymond has a fever.

Phenom Penh, Cambodia

You have to eat.

I want to see Anton Leonidov.

Soon.

You wait. You eat.

I get crazy here. It's been too long.

I bought you DVD.

This one I like.

Good movie.

You wait. And eat.

Hello, Sylvain.

Will you explain this?

Leave us.

I'm sorry,

but if you were asked politely to come with us,

you would have refused.

And we couldn't afford it.

Exactly. I would have said, "No".

And you know what? I'm still saying, "No".

You were going to Paris, weren't you?

No.

Riga.

There is a risk of you being extradited to France.

Why?

Because they're looking for the source of the leaks

and you are the perfect suspect.

So am I a prisoner?

You're not a prisoner.

What am I?

If you agree to my proposal

you will be a migrant worker.

Come with me?

My cellphone.

Let's go?

I have to recharge it.

Great.

I need to call.

You can call your girlfriend right after the visit, I promise.

How she doing?

He misses you.

Hello, Khim.

Hello.

How's it going? - Fine, thank you.

Is it done?

Yes, it's done.

Hi, Sveta?

It's Sylvain.

Where are you?

I'll tell you, but it's a secret.

I was told that you left because of a computer attack.

Yes.

I couldn't talk to anyone.

I'm sorry, my little cat.

Are you in Paris?

No, I'm at Phenom Penh,

in Cambodia.

In Phenom Penh?

Yes, I'll explain later.

I miss you.

I miss you too. I was very worried.

Didn't my office tell you anything?

Yes, but I was still worried.

What did you tell her?

Nothing compromising.

Enough to calm her down.

I have to hang up. - Okay, but first...

Do I keep all that in my head?

Yes, you do.

Acknowledge that it is well done.

Yes, it's well done.

What are they doing?

This is your first good question.

We are working on a very ambitious program

and I need you for technical supervision.

More ambitious than Center 21?

That's where the research is done,

here we implement.

What do you mean?

Identity theft,

impersonation, Cyber clone.

Who for?

For an institution.

Which is?

This is where I stop.

You have to say "yes" if you want to to learn more.

I say, "No".

Goodbye then.

Cloning for an institution is an act of war.

I don't work for FSB.

Either you are an idiot or you take us for a fool.
