The Terminal List: Dark Wolf

I'm offering you a chance to finish what you started.

You know my target, Massoud Danawi.

This is a joint Agency-Mossad Sanction unit.

You never said this was a joint operation.

I said I work against Iran.

Mossad being here ain't a big leap.

Danawi received five million in crypto,

with instructions to deliver that money to this guy.

Balázs Molnar.

No one on Molnar's side knows what Danawi looks like.

Mohammad, as Danawi, is gonna meet with Molnar

and purchase whatever it is he's trying to sell to Iran.

With my bearings, Iran has adequate uranium

to build a bomb in less than a year.

West entrance has a third party.

-Closing the distance. -Coming to you.

Ish is KIA.

You get that motherfucker.

That's all Ish traveled with?

That's all we can send home.

Mo was saying he has a wife and kids.

Yeah, he was estranged.

Uh...

Yeah, Ish married the job.

They should know what he died for, sir.

Eh, this isn't about ceremony for us.

No tridents in coffins.

Ish will be a star on a wall, and that's enough.

I'm sorry for your loss, sir.

You got the guy that got Ish.

Thank you.

Hello?

-Uh, sir, this is... -Names aren't necessary.

Just know I'm a friend of your father's from his days with the Scouts.

And I'm happy to help pay off an old debt.

Did he tell you why I'm calling?

Haven't talked to him. Just email.

But it's clear he doesn't know what happened with you and the teams.

Well, this, uh, this isn't about me, sir.

You'd like to know about Jed Haverford.

I'd like to know who I'm working for, yes.

May I ask, are the risks that have been taken

bigger than the cost of what you're trying to prevent?

Not when you put it like that.

Then the man you're working for is doing what he's done for the past 30 years.

Jed Haverford helped found the Iranian Operations Division.

He's had one purpose since 1983:

to keep a tiger in its cage.

He's dedicated his life to that cause.

-What happened in '83? -Islamic jihad happened.

A proxy force for the Iranian hardliners

bombed our embassy in Beirut.

Jed and the Agency worked there.

Lost eight friends and two vertebrae in the attack.

Only made him tougher, though.

So he's motivated.

Oh, yes.

Jed Haverford's ability to hold a grudge

has done more for America in the

And he runs

the longest tenured asset inside Tehran.

An insider, codenamed the Shepherd.

Look what they brought for you.

Minister, you honor us.

What do you say, Babak?

Thank you, Minister.

You're welcome.

Can you read the inscription on the box?

"The handle of your dagger is world seizing."

Your father is helping Iran seize the world.

Ah, Babak?

Careful, Babak!

This is not a toy, this is the gift of a war hero.

We are grateful for your generosity, Minister.

I hope it reminds him of his home country.

You are generous to us.

We have karaoke for those who want...

No, no wait wait. One more gift! Babak dear.

Babak, dear, this is for you.

What do you think is inside?

Huh? Are you happy?

An iPhone! Thank you, Uncle, thank you! It's the best gift ever.

I adore you.

With the work your father is doing to open Iran back to the world...

...you will need a powerful tool like this.

Plus, it has Candy Crush!

A wonderful party.

Thank you for all you've done these past few months

for Iran and our nuclear program.

I know it's not easy being so far from home.

You're too kind.

And you, Vahid...

It will be good to get you back to Tehran...

Hmm.

...and remember where you're from.

I look forward to it, Minister.

My part of this work will be done within the week.

Thank you again. God keep you safe.

What?

He's right.

You're forgetting yourself.

You know as well as I...

...this is not the time to be swimming in these waters.

It's the task we've been given.

Your work is meaningful too, Cyrus. Life changing.

It shows the power of diplomacy.

But what do you think happens when we give technology like this to men like Yousef?

We rise through the ranks, and take back control.

Control?

Look at the chaos caused by our allies who fight with sticks and rocks.

What do you think happens when nuclear weapons are in the wrong hands?

They won't be in the wrong hands.

Maybe it's you who's been away from our country too long.

Okay.

Checkmate.

Fuck.

That's the beauty of the game, man.

Even a pawn can take a king.

Wait, did we bet on this?

Good game.

Heard from my source.

Dinner at the table tonight.

We are up and running.

Finally.

I was beginning to find this shit interesting.

Thanks to Edwards getting that photo in Budapest,

we now know Molnar is working with

the Khalid Network.

The Khalid Network?

Black-market nuclear proliferation group.

Makes sense Tehran turns to them.

This nuclear deal will set them back decades.

But what's beyond comprehension is that,

even knowing that someone else may be in play,

the hardliners have decided to keep this exchange on track.

We've been tracking Danawi's phone for weeks.

No calls, no texts. Why now?

Tehran has a hidden enrichment facility

coming online.

Last chance to get new tech into the country before the agreement.

So, Iran ditches the ratlines,

and goes direct between the Khalid Network

and the Quds Forces? Bold fucking move.

Well, my sources say that

the Khalid Network is moving Molnar's bearings

from Budapest to Geneva

by road this week.

We're gonna hit that shipment en route.

Who's the source?

Someone inside.

So here's the play.

We intercept the convoy,

we insert our team in the delivery stream,

and then we close the deal with Tehran.

So we're giving them what they want?

No, Tal.

We're giving them upstream disruption.

We'll take Molnar and his bearings off the board.

Then, my asset will deliver the fake bearings in their place.

Now, with these fake bearings,

the centrifuges can't spin fast enough,

rendering Tehran's new facility useless.

Eliza will stay in lead, but I need

a shooter with experience to back her up.

I'll take it.

You got it.

Hastings and Tal will get the fake bearings from Mossad.

Mohammed, Landry, weapons acquisition.

Uh, this, uh, convoy hit,

it's kind of like preparing a meal.

You get it right, and it's all "compliments to the chef."

Get it wrong...

and everyone eats shit.

We're going to recon two routes...

Hastings, you got a minute?

Hey.

Smoke?

Oh. No, thank you.

I, uh, prefer the adult-size cigars.

Well, you missing out.

Hand-rolled on the thighs

of beautiful Cuban women.

Have a seat.

I hear you've been, uh,

poking around about me.

It's okay.

Your father has a lot of friends in Langley.

But just so you know,

I'm here,

and you have any questions,

you can always come see me.

Your source inside Tehran...

...the Shepherd.

Who verifies that intel he's feeding you?

SEALs.

You really don't like working single source.

We launched a war based off of single source intel.

-How's that working out? -Uh, fair enough.

Always the toughest part of an operator racking over.

You can't drop a deuce downrange without four people telling you where to shit.
