Covert Affairs · Season 3
So how long before your supervisors realize you shared your intel with us?
I don't know. I don't care. They paired us together because we work well together. They can't have it both ways.
I'm impressed. You're learning to work your agency, showing them you can't be pushed around. You had me, you know. When Griffin was running away, you could have kept that watch for yourself. Why share it with Mossad?
I didn't share it with Mossad. I shared it with you.
The guy does demo.
That's probably where Cole got his explosives.
You take the front door and I'll take the back.
If you're so eager to get shot, why don't you take the front door?
We're two highly trained intelligence operatives. You don't think we can get the drop on a contractor with an NRA card?
You want to tell me what just happened here? What's going on with you?
Rivka's at Langley. She says you've gone rogue. That you doctored the photos of al Masri, not Mossad. You.
Wait a minute. Rivka's at Langley?
You wouldn't do that, would you?
You mean she's there right now?
I'm telling you she just left Joan's office. Eyal, tell me that's not true!
I'm sorry, Annie. It's true.
You're lying.
Annie, I did it.
Mossad got caught pulling a fast one on the CIA and now you're taking one for the team to smooth things over. You're sacrificing yourself to protect them!
You're wrong. I acted on my own.
Was there no other way to achieve what you wanted than by using me like this? I trusted you.
I told you a long time ago that there's no such thing as trust among spies, but you don't seem to get it. You know this thing you keep doing, looking for the good in people? Not only does it make you weak, it makes you a target, and an easy one at that.
Maybe you're right: maybe I'm naive, maybe I need to grow a thicker skin. I'm still having trouble believing you would give me doctored photos knowing what would happen, given all we've been through.
What are you saying, Annie?
I'm saying I'm giving you one last chance to save our friendship.
There's nothing I can say.
What did you tell her?
That I acted alone. That's what I was supposed to do, wasn't it?
We had no choice. It had to be done.
By way of deception, thou shall do war.
Eyal, you had a role to play here for Mossad, for Israel.
Annie trusted me completely.
Yes, that was the point.
That's all over. I'm finished here. What now?
Now you go to Tel Aviv. We'll find a desk for you.
I don't think so.
You don't think so? What the hell is that supposed to mean?
It means I quit.
Excuse me?
I've done some foolish, dangerous, questionable things for Mossad, for you. But this, this crossed the line.
Don't forget which side of the line this woman is on.
I trusted her. She saved my life five times, even though she only counts three.
Listen to me: what is happening here is much larger than you know. We've all had to play our parts. We've all had to pay the price.
Yeah? What have you lost in this grandiose scheme, hmm?
You.
So much for being polite. What happened?
I didn't have time to be polite. We need to get that money so we can pay off that club manager.
I'm not talking about your methods. You didn't want him to call Tel Aviv. Are you on the outs with Rivka? Did you get suspended?
I quit Mossad.
You quit Mossad? [sigh] I knew it! I knew they would make you take the fall for them.
Don't read too much into it. I wanted to hunt Khalid down and kill him, they had already completed their mission. Let's just call it creative differences.
Eyal.
It was time anyway.
Eyal, I'm sorry. I can't imagine how hard that must have been for you.
His guys must have clocked us and had Megan killed.
She was in love. She was never going to listen to me.
It wasn't your fault.
I know that. She had a chance to get herself out; more than one. She refused my help. There's nothing I can do about that. What?
Nothing. I agree with everything you said, it's just I've never heard you talk like this before.
Yeah, well I didn't feel like this before, but I've learned a lot since the last time we were here. Not everybody can be saved. That's not my job.
Please tell me you didn't take everything I said back in West Virginia to heart. Your empathy is one of your greatest talents. Never lose it. You never know when you might need it.
We're talking about handing over agency assets. How many names are on that list? How many lives are we trading for one man?
Three assets in Riyadh, one in Dubai, but they're both collecting intel on OPEC, not the Ansari family.
That designation doesn't mean anything.
Can't we get them off the board before Khalid gets to them?
Yes, but the lives of those assets will be irrevocably changed.
I know. I pulled everything I could on the Ansari family looking for a way around this. I can't think of another plan. I don't want to give over those names, either, but somebody has to do something! Eyal needs my help, and I can't do nothing.
Is this about Russia?
And Paris, and Zurich, and West Virginia. It's about all of it.
You once told me you didn't have feelings for him. Is that not true? Is that what's driving this?
Why do you keep asking me that?
You'll never get away with this.
Get away with what? You have no idea what I want. This is not a negotiation. You no longer have leverage. When I say something, you do it or I shoot you. Is that clear?
Yes.
Killing you would be the easiest thing in the world right now, but it won't solve anything.
Why Athens?
I've got a 40 foot Mariner in Piraeus with my name on it. No, seriously. It's called The Flying Lavin.
You're dyed in the wool Mossad. Are you sure you're going to be happy just sitting around in a boat all day?
Sitting? It's called sailing. I don't know. Much of Jewish mysticism revolves around numbers: the five knots in a tzitzit, the ten Sephirot, the four species of Sukkot; but we only get one life. I want to make the best of it.
Why do I always feel like there's something behind what you're telling me?
[smiles] Why don't you join me and find out?
The last time a guy asked me to run away with him, it didn't work out that well. Besides, I need to get home, put down some roots.
For now. Timing is everything neshema, but one day you and I will be sitting somewhere, looking at a sunset, thinking of nothing at all. Maybe not this boat in Greece, but one day, and that will be lovely evening.
I hope so. Goodbye, Eyal.
I'm not good with goodbyes, and I never get to say it. Thank you, Annie. Good luck.
Yes, I know this is macabre, but I wanted to see this place for myself. Please have a seat. Thank you for coming. I know this couldn't be easy.
It isn't. Everything in here is exactly as it was before.
Life has a funny way of continuing on, no matter what we do. I know Jai didn't paint the rosiest picture of me, but I'm here to try and make things right.
Mr. Wilcox, you and I only ever met once. I never felt we had any personal issue.
This is about Arthur and Joan Campbell.
I've never had any personal issues with them, either.
Let me ask you something: why didn't you kill Khalid in Amsterdam? Yes, I know about Khalid. Just assume I know everything.
I gave Khalid all the information he needs to kill his father or force his father to kill him. Either way, we have a piece of the game board and cause havoc in their ranks. It can't be traced back to the Agency.
Excellent spycraft, Ms. Walker.
My experience with Lena taught me a few things.
