The first 200 lines.
Previously, on Ponies ...
We need you to find the Kompromat facility, today.
Chris died looking for this place.
Andrei, he's targeting
powerful Soviets
and manipulating them with what he has on them.
This could be why some of the prostitutes
are being murdered while others aren't.
That is probably how Andrei is funneling out
his blackmail on the Russians.
Shampoo.
I need an I pill.
I'm not gonna give you a pill so you can kill yourself.
I don't want you to die.
We have a fucking mole.
The Soviets didn't use
these tunnels to plant the bug.
Our man is closer to us.
- What are you doing? - Let me explain.
Don't!
Your husband
he was feeding information to the Soviets.
Tom was the one that got Chris killed.
When I left Belarus, I had to leave behind
my best friend, Sofia.
Now I get to choose
to go back to my village.
I received a message
from our friend in the village.
He asked us to visit.
With all the foreigners in town
for the Elton John concert
they must be doing an operation.
Hello, American.
- Excuse me! - Excuse me.
Shep, fucking... What...
- Okay. Come on. - Shit!
Just keep running. Keep running.
- Shit! - No. You gotta...
Okay... Fuck.
All crew members
ten minutes to showtime!
- Okay. - Go... go.
What the fuck do we do now?
Excuse me?
Who are you?
Elton, who are they?
We're the Americans.
Obviously.
- I'm Elton. - Yeah.
Are you here to escort me to the stage?
- Yes. Yes. That's... - Yes. That is...
- That is what we're here for. Yeah. - That's why we're here, yeah.
- Great. - Yeah.
- Hello, love. - So, do you ladies live in Moscow?
- Friendly place to live? - Yeah.
Yeah, very warm. Very welcoming city, yeah.
I was thinking of saying something like
"I love you Moscow" in Russian.
How would I say that?
You know, it's never come up.
- Okay. - Let's...
Let's get you out there, though
- Elton. Let's all go. - Yeah, let's go to the stage.
- And... and stay close. - Okay. That's right.
- Yeah. Okay. - Yes, don't wanna lose anyone. Okay.
Nadiya.
Nadiya.
Nadiya.
- Shit! - Oh. Yeah, okay! Run! Run!
We gotta get to Sasha.
Andrei's gonna fucking kill him!
Yeah, he's gonna fucking kill us too!
Need help!
Help!
You're American!
You are a spy.
No, Twila!
I'm gonna kill you right here
you understand?
But I will make it slowly.
I will take my time.
Ivanna!
Who is this man?
Come on! Let's go!
- Ray's car. - Ray's car?
- Race car? - He gave me his spare.
- Really? - Yeah, he trusts me.
- Okay, let's go! - Why is the KGB trying to kill you?
Are you a spy?
You can't be a spy, you don't blend in.
You know, fuck off! I'm a spy, okay?
Hey.
If I make it out of this alive
maybe I'll call ya.
I don't have a telephone.
Okay, let's go.
She's stable now.
Ma'am
we've stopped the bleeding.
We'll just wait here for the ambulance to arrive.
Okay, thank God.
What, like, Soviet paramedics?
Ma'am?
- Ambassador Toon. - Mrs. Szymanski.
You shot your nanny?
Yes. She was
she was working for them.
I caught her looking at this
before I took matters into my own hands.
Jesus Christ, what is this?
Some sort of top secret technology.
Something that a KGB agent dressed as a paramedic
would love to get his hands on.
Bring this to the guys upstairs.
The Soviets are gonna be here any minute.
Secure this in the vault.
Yes, sir.
Hey.
No... no. We have to go.
Andrei knows. Andrei knows.
The listening device does not matter
Andrei knows. He knows about me
so he knows about you. And he's coming here.
- We have to go now. - What? How? What, how?
We have to get you somewhere safe.
Sasha!
Mr. Szymanski!
- Yes? - There's been an accident.
Someone's been shot in your apartment.
What? Who?
Where's my car?
Aksana? Aksana.
You're welcome.
Good luck.
And listen, we... we're gonna get you out of Russia, okay?
The United States will protect you.
Sasha? Hey, look at me.
You're gonna be okay.
Wait, what... what is that on... on your sweater?
Oh, I... I don't know.
It must be my sister's pin.
She wore this sweater.
Why?
What's the pin?
When my husband died, I found that symbol
in a card in his coat pocket.
And then we saw it right before we first met you
and now your sister has it
and it's on the ambulance
that was transporting the Kompromat.
Everything around this operation has that symbol.
It was where I worked, too.
No symbol, but they call it
Pegas. Pegasus.
It's all connected.
My husband
knew your sister. Did you know that?
He was with CIA, wasn't he?
I met him, your husband.
Right when I started working for the CIA.
He whispered in my ear
"You can trust me.
I knew your sister."
Okay, there's no light switches
or possibly even lights.
There's a phone.
We could... we could call that number.
- Yes. There's a secure line - Yeah. Yeah.
We can use if we ever need extraction
from a situation like this.
Oh, shit. But there's a code phrase. What's the code phrase?
I never thought we'd need it. What's the, what...
Before Olympus, Orion breaks signals.
How did you remember that?
Boobs.
Where do we think the bathroom is in here?
I think that's it.
Worse than Moscow.
And it didn't seem like an issue
for you to let a foreigner
into your residence in the American Embassy.
I had specifically hired another woman
but apparently she died years ago.
But you were always planning on hiring a foreigner
for work in your home?
We live in the middle of Moscow.
Was I supposed to bring somebody in from Pennsylvania?
We rely on foreign citizens
to work in the cafeteria and vacuum
go to the market, and yes
babysit my son.
For some people in the embassy
you would be expected to do all those things.
Oh, I work.
I'm the office manager for this entire floor.
Yes, of course.
What do you mean, of course?
What are you writing down?
Everything you're saying. This is an open investigation
