They got Jack.
They took him alive for a reason.
Ooh. Ooh.

- How do you feel? - Oh. Bad.
We got to get moving.
[bag zips]
Yeah. Where?
- Over that ridge. - [bag zips]
There's a fishing village about two klicks north.
Pick up transportation and supplies there.
Fire up the satnav.
- I think I know where they took him. - Where?
Same place I picked up Cathy. [grunts]
Must feel good to be back on campus.
I don't know what you're talking about.
Oh, cut the bullshit.
Lieutenant William Tuttle.
CIA.
'82 to '09.
Before that, Army Ranger of the 75th.
Now, that shit impressed me
because those are some bad motherfuckers.
- Glad to of service. - Yeah.
Makes me feel better about that right cross
I landed on your ass on that bridge.
Chalk one up for the Navy.
- [scoffs] - You know,
to be honest,
I'm surprised that we've never crossed paths.
Shit, you've been everywhere, just like me.
Tehran, Beirut.
Karachi.
I heard about what happened.
Poor bastard.
How'd it feel to be the one getting stabbed this time?
Oh, I'm healing up just fine.
What I want to know is
what are we gonna find on those hard drives of yours?
Well, considering they're blank, not much.

There's a reason
we didn't let the police take you.
Look around.
There's no Miranda rights in here.
So, what happens next is entirely up to you.
What would you like to know?
Where the fuck is Jack?
You know, it's funny, I did a lot of research into that one.
Miller, he really had a bug up his ass for him.
- He's a wily one. - [slams desk]
I saw him get black bagged on your computer screen.

He didn't give me anything.

What did he tell you and who else knows?
We didn't really get a chance to know each other
before you killed him.
[short chuckle]
[grunting]
Aah!
There are four triggers still out there.
You tried to stop them.
Surely he told you how they work.
He told...
he told me they were going to America.
The first round is, yes.
A process your interference has already expedited.
But you know it's not really about the bombs.
What was it about?
Proof of concept.
Your country's vulnerable.
It always has been.
Someone just had to reveal that

That.
I'll be honest,

Not we.

You know, I don't think it could've happened without you.
Well, I appreciate that, Director.
Yeah, and that's what concerns me.
Let me put those in some water for you.
Friend of yours?
We know about Dominic Sanderson.
We know you have been using
his comatose body like a freeway for shell companies.
In that circumstance,
the only thing that I'm guilty of is charity.
I saw a boy in need,
like I once one was myself,
so I reached out.
So you're saying it's just coincidence that Miller chose
those companies to fund his black ops programs?
Any interactions I may or may not have had
with former Director Miller are highly classified.
Perhaps above your pay grade.
Gosh. Smart answers, Ade.
But, given the smoke billowing around them,
you must know that it's only a matter of time.
You're a formidable force, Elizabeth,
and I will never underestimate you, therefore,
- I'm willing to make a deal. - A deal?
- Yes. - [Wright] What deal?
- Immunity. - [Greer chuckles]
Fuck you. In exchange for what?
The location of Jack Ryan.
What?
I suggest you play these next
few seconds very carefully.
I agree.
All I'm doing is protecting myself.
You know I can't grant you immunity. That's DOJ.
Then you need to get on the phone with the attorney general.
Tell him, in the interest of time,
you're going to ask the NSD
to enter into an immunity agreement with me.
And as soon as I sign the papers,
I will give you Jack Ryan.
Someone will escort you to the conference room.
[clears throat]
[door closes]
We can't do that, Elizabeth.
If you make that call, Jack will never forgive us.
I'm starting to understand, James.
- What? - Our tactics need to change.
And we need the best minds to change them.
Also, I'm the director of the Central Intelligence Agency,
so I don't give a shit what Jack says about my decision.
As long as he's here to say it.

My father taught me.
I heard that he was a... a wonderful man.
He is.
- Did he give that to you? - Yes.
- What's his name? - Mun.
Mun.
Hi, Mun.
- Oh, he can't talk. - He can't?
His voice doesn't work.
That's why he gave him to me,
so he wouldn't tell anyone my secrets.
I see.
You know I'm a doctor, right?
And I fix people all the time.
If you want, I could take a look at Mun.
Maybe I could fix him, too.
I know exactly what to do.

- Stand by. - It's on the scales.
What do we got?
It's well under one percent registered.
Not a red flag.
Wait, wait, wait. Registered how?
All carrier information. Origin, destination and weight.
- Actual combined with payload. - Show me.
Pull it up.
[guard] It's clean.
But we got eyes on another carrier.
We're approaching now.
Fuck.
Bring it up on the screen.
God.
How do we get these people out of there?
All right.
Give me the registration information.
We need pre-load weight.
- I don't see the pre-load. - [Jack] What do you mean?
It should be weighed at the border.
- Is that standard? - Not standard,
but possible with later, last-minute shipments.
Last-minute shipments? How is that even allowed?
And that has to be signed off by people way higher than me.
Wright, are you still on?
[Wright] Yeah, we're here.
I'm sending you a list
of all last-minute shipments at the border.
Run it for me.
[guard] Confirmed. Toyota payload.
Plate.
9267MGR.
Holy shit.
Wright, I need the weight, both pre and post.
- I need the differential. - Yeah, we're on it.
Approach that carrier with extreme caution.
- That cruiser... does it have body cams? - [Oreja] Yeah.
- [Jack] Pull it up. - [Oreja] Come on, pull it up.
There it is.
Wright? Anything?
The differential is 643 pounds.

Could you please stand and raise your right hand?
You swear to tell the truth,
the whole truth and nothing but the truth, so help you God?
- I do. - [Henshaw] Please be seated.
Well, Dr. Ryan,
it's quite an eventful week.
It was only a few days ago
we swore in a new director of the CIA.
And here we are today already dealing with the agency's
first world news story.
Now, as much as I share in the country's relief
at the neutralizing of this unprecedented threat...
...I also feel that the American people
deserve answers
as to the details of how we got here.
I agree.
I'm glad to hear it.
Members of this...
honorable committee, I, uh...
not so long ago stood in front of you
and I promised to eliminate
any compromised operations that were left behind
by our predecessors.
I also said that this agency could not
and should not survive
if it were ever to serve any other interests
other than those of the American people.
But I admit I had ulterior motives.
My real goal...
however naive, was to prove to those American people
that our system of government as a whole...
...could once again be trusted.
I failed.
That harsh realization came to me
in the exact moment that my team was risking their lives
to seize and disarm
five biochemical weapons that had made their way
into our very own backyard.
In that moment, it became very clear
that, as you said, sir, "how we got here"...
well, it could no longer solely be attributed
to outside forces.
Dr. Ryan, I'm sorry, I'm...
I'm just not sure that we follow.
- Uh, to-to what end? - Senator, you began today by saying
that this country is under an unprecedented threat.
Well, I believe you're right.
But ironically, it was Zeyara Lemos,
the now-deceased architect of the strike,
who, in her delusion,
was actually the one to reveal the true nature of that threat.
And it was not the plan that she attempted to pull off.
It was the very real weakness
within our own system
that gave her the confidence
to attempt this at all.
Dr. Ryan, this fails to answer my question.
Once again, you have broken protocols to avert a strike.
You're absolutely right.
I did not follow protocols.
[hushed murmuring]
My team and I acted on instinct.
And tried to stop the perceived threat by any means necessary.
Our actions in Croatia
Forced Zeyara Lemos to expedite
an endgame that had long been in motion.
And endgame I imagine
was meticulously planned and prepared for.
An endgame that, if disrupted,
could lead to mistakes.
Dr. Ryan, what kind of mistakes?
Little ones, Senator.
For instance, I had no idea that every single vehicle carrier
that comes across our border into the United States
needs to be pre-registered.
Pre-weighed. Pre-approved.
I'm sure Senator Henshaw knew that,
being the senator from the great state of Texas.
[chuckles] Of course.
And then he would also know that
the only way to expedite any shipment
of any kind into this country...
...well, that would take
a direct authorization...
...from someone only in the highest levels
- of our government. - Dr. Ryan, I fail
- to see your point. - My point is, Senator,
it's taken me a long time.
But I finally realize that no matter how hard I try,
no matter how many protocols I break,
I will never have the real power in this government.
Not like the power you have, sir.
The power to sign a document just like this.
[gallery murmuring]
Is that your signature, Senator Henshaw?
- I have no idea what you're... - Because if it is,
I hold here evidence of Senator Henshaw's complicity
- in the attempted strike. - How dare you?
[Jack] Bribes orchestrated by Adebayo Osoji,
who is currently in custody,
in return for large-scale donations
to Senator Henshaw's reelection campaign.
- Dr. Ryan, I demand a retraction. - [Jack] No, sir,
your ability to demand anything just vanished.
Because you...
you are the weakness
that Ms. Lemos was talking about.
And I pray to God
that you were ignorant to her greater ambition.
To the five cities and countless lives that you put at risk.
But if you were...
it was your greed that made you blind.
And when it comes to the safety of the American people,
I believe
that blindness of that magnitude...
...is as good as pulling the trigger.
- [gallery gasps] - Dr. Ryan, you listen to me...
- [gallery murmuring] - No, sir, you listen.
That is the sound of your country
telling you it deserves better.
Dr. Ryan, you will be seated.
You will not walk out of this room!
This hearing is not over, Dr. Ryan! Yeah!
[Greer] Well...
