Sorry to keep you waiting.
PREVIOUSLY ON
You'll pay for this.
Today marks the rebirth of Manticore Italy.
What happened?
If you're listening to this message, I'm dead.
Now that we have the weapon,
things are going to change.
I just want to disappear.
This time we can truly change the world.
I'm Diana Cavalieri, Citadel agent
and Manticore operative Agent 3-0-8.
Please, someone, answer. Tell me I'm not the only one left.
Day 19 after the attack against Citadel.
Manticore Italy is under heavy sanctions by their Sister agencies.
They discovered that it was hiding tech stolen from Citadel.
Now, the tech is in the hands of Manticore France and Germany.
I did everything I could to destroy it.
I don't know if I managed,
if they'll be able to rebuild it.
And I can't leave Manticore now.
After the sanctions, they're controlling us even more.
Please, someone answer.
I can't imagine I'm the only one left.
Just keeping this device in my house is like a death sentence.
Please, someone, answer.
FOR SALE
And this?
I made a copy for myself.
We'll miss Mom and Dad's house.
I found a shipping company, by the way.
I'll send you everything after you're settled.
- Thanks. - No problem.
- Do you think the house will sell? - Yes.
I think so.
And then?
I don't know.
There's a room for you whenever you want. We'll be waiting.
- Have you heard from Edo? - No.
It would have never worked.
Because of your job?
Lots of reasons.
I'm proud of you.
Thank you for getting justice for our parents.
I'm glad you're out now.
I'm proud of you, too.
I'm sorry that it came at such a high price.
I get it. You'd have never stopped without finding the truth.
Let's go.
Are we going to be okay?
We're going to be great.
Bye, Auntie.
Bye, sweetheart!
Day 32
after the attack against Citadel.
It's clear that, after the sanctions, Ettore Zani's only objective
is to completely destabilize the country.
The agency is selling weapons to a number of criminal organizations.
He's blackmailing politicians from the opposition,
and has been awarded contracts with the military and law enforcement.
We agents no longer have any freedom.
We are their armed branch.
I can't sleep anymore.
I still believe one of our people
will hear my messages.
I'm scared.
And I'm alone.
Hello.
May I come in?
Sure.
Stay outside.
Do you know who I am?
Yes.
I just want to ask you a few questions.
To understand how things went.
A Citadel agent shot him.
He took him by surprise.
Your brother was distracted.
By what?
By Citadel's technology.
I didn't know him well, I only went on a few missions with him.
But he was a leader.
Did you agree with the attack?
I execute orders.
Nothing more.
I didn't agree with it.
It shouldn't have gone like this.
Manticore shouldn't be like this.
Today, we know what to expect.
Wolfgang.
Cecile, how are you?
Not so talkative.
Shall we go in?
We have a lot to discuss today.
We hope these weeks of silence have been useful for everyone.
To calm the waters.
"Jupiter" is the name of the weapon.
And it's been completed.
Jupiter is the future of Manticore Europe.
We'll spread it using the public water system.
We'll conduct an initial test soon
to calculate the dispersion coefficient,
then we'll begin production
and continue to release more in successive waves
until we've reached the entire population.
Now that the weapon is only yours,
what will become of us and our agencies?
Edoardo, do you want to tell them our decision?
We decided that access to Jupiter will be shared among the European Council.
But under one condition.
Manticore Italy reserves the right of first analysis.
- Of what? - Of the data.
We'll have access to billions of pieces of data each day.
To prevent every agency from interpreting them in their own way,
we'll do the first screening.
And you'll tell us whatever suits you best.
Your idea of sharing is always fascinating.
We'll also have exclusive control over a third element.
A third element?
The Italian part of the weapon.
We're already operational, right?
Of course. Almost.
You'll have more details in due course. Now let's see if we all agree.
Right...
As if we have a choice.
The new Manticore Europe structure.
All agencies are equal. Well, almost.
Isn't that the basis of democracy?
Not giving me a heads-up about what you'll say is becoming a habit.
Meetings are like jazz, you have to go with the flow.
Improvise.
You only listen to classical music.
- It was the right time to tell them. - In your opinion.
Not mine.
You're taking for granted that it's doable.
If you'd spoken with me, you'd know that's not the case.
No?
We have to insert an element we've created
into a Citadel derivation.
Do you know how many technical variables there are?
It's not like moving a piece of furniture in a room.
It's more like taking apart a puzzle,
inserting 100 pieces of another one,
and expecting the picture to match the original.
You never give up because of a technical difficulty.
Tell me what's bothering you.
The third element.
It's meant to kill.
Yes, I know.
I know what it can do. I know how dangerous it can be.
And you're wrong.
No other weapon will be as precise as this one.
No collateral damage, just the targets.
Should I remind you of times in history
when killing one would have saved millions?
No. Of course not.
Edoardo...
You have power now.
Start figuring out what that means.
Your name isn't in our database
and there's no trace of our collaboration.
The one thing that brings me hope is knowing you're still there.
You're the last one left behind enemy lines
and you'll need to be very brave.
- Your name isn't... - Forgive me.
...and there's no trace of our collaboration.
Let's go to the office.
Are you sure?
- Where are my drivers and agents? - Relax. They're sleeping.
Edo, I'm sorry, it was a joke.
I gave you what you wanted!
You have 20 million, you're free, you can leave. What else do you want?
Why are you so angry with me?
Because you disappeared for a month.
I'm back, though.
What made you change your mind?
I thought about what we said.
We can pretend we're happy with a normal life,
a good job, a nice house, but the truth is we want more.
I want more.
What does "more" mean to you?
To be with you.
After the mission in France,
we were lying here, weren't we?
You were sleeping, I couldn't.
So I got up,
and I saw the device with the data for the weapon.
And I was sure...
I mean, I'm sure
that it's dangerous.
I could've taken it.
Did you want to destroy it?
I knew I would've gotten us both in big trouble,
and Manticore would've invented something else anyway.
So I left it there and walked away.
Why are you telling me this?
Because you deserve to know who I am.
And I can't stop trying
to fight for the world to be a safer place.
But you're the only one I feel like I can do that with.
That's all.
Manticore killed your parents.
Our agency brought down flight OT9732, there was a...
A Citadel agent on board.
I wanted to tell you in Sicily,
but I couldn't do it.
You also have the right to know who I am.
Did you take part in the decision?
Don't even think that.
I'm sorry.
8 YEARS EARLIER
ZANI FAMILY
Leave him alone, he must be busy.
It's not like him.
What do you have to tell him that's so urgent?
You know what.
We'll have the power to control anyone at any time,
from the beginning to the end of their life.
How?
The French half is a microscopic interception system
that's inserted into the German half, a biotechnology component
made to embed itself in the human body.
Like a parasite?
We won't have to tap phones and hack computers,
people themselves will be the source of information.
They'll be the transmitters.
And we'll be in control of all their data.
Diana, I know it's an enormous power.
But if we use it well,
we have the chance to ensure peace and safety.
Above all, we can become the agency we always should have been.
But that wasn't enough for my father.
So we're considering inserting a third element.
It's a remote killing system.
Did you design it?
My job is designing weapons.
Manticore would have the power of life or death over anyone.
With the touch of a button at any moment,
the host subject would die instantly of natural causes.
It's like the atomic bomb, then.
And it all depends on the hand that presses the button.
And your father is clearly pushing you to include it.
What's this? It has a strange shape.
It's from a house I lived in.
A good luck charm.
I still have a lot of things to learn about you.
First, she gets to leave with full assurances and a pile of money.
Now she wants to return.
She needed a break after risking so much in Paris.
Should I remind you what we got thanks to her?
Were you with her last night?
Yes.
Get used to it.
Where is she now?
She's preparing to launch Jupiter's first dispersion test.
Yesterday, I told her everything.
Just like that?
Without consulting me?
Dad, let's get one thing straight. I'm not asking for your permission.
- I'm in charge, the same as you. - Exactly.
The same as me.
You're doing everything on your own.
What about the third element?
We're almost there.
I need to make a call now.
The weapons law is about to pass,
but I've got to nudge that idiot minister.
This contains 10 million Jupiter particles.
A small amount for the first test.
Small?
Only a portion will reach host subjects.
How many? We'll find out.
Inside there's the code to activate them. Memorize it and destroy it.
Only the two of us can know it.
I think the family could grow soon.
Seriously?
What happened brought them together in a way
even he couldn't predict.
If you want to find a balance with him,
you need to accept their relationship.
I don't like that girl.
There's something about her.
She's hiding something.
She's a spy.
- It's her job to hide things. - Come on.
You know what I mean, Julia.
I can already see her whispering in his ear,
advising.
Don't compare yourself to her.
Why not?
Because you're family.
Yes.
And I still am, only because Edo came back alive from Paris.
So, you have no doubts?
None?
All I know is I haven't seen Edo like this in years.
Like what?
Happy.
PHASE THREE
MISSING COMPONENT
COMPLETE
The third element just passed the test.
I inserted it into the master copy.
Good job!
That's amazing, Edo.
Thanks.
Unlike you, I've never doubted you'd succeed.
And I know it wasn't easy.
I'm proud of you.
I'm only sorry
that our biggest success
was achieved on such a tense day.
But that's okay.
Now you're closer to 3-0-8 than to me.
You'll want to celebrate with her.
And if she's so important to you, then I'm willing to accept her.
And to call her Diana.
Thank you.
As for us,
I'd like us to find a balance.
I know you'll find a way to do it now that you're in charge, too.
I'm about to send you the code for Jupiter.
It's only right that you have it, too.
But under one condition.
You never quit.
Your mother's right, you're like me. What do you want?
Diana as Manager of Manticore Italy.
Replacing Matteo?
Matteo has been managing the agency for 13 years.
It's time for a change.
If your relationship is so important,
she might as well manage the agency.
I'll speak with Matteo.
Do I have your word?
You have my word.
We'll make it official tonight.
I just sent it to you.
See you later.
Matteo.
Block 3-0-8's communication signals.
I have the codes, but they're worthless if you don't memorize the procedure.
Let her do the job.
Then you know what to do.
What does he have to do?
Ettore.
Your love for your son has clouded your judgment.
You're not seeing straight.
WATER TOWER NO. 14
Stand guard here.
Mom, I spoke with Dad.
We made a deal.
What are you saying?
There's nothing more you can do for her.
Matteo.
I want to speak with Diana immediately.
Are you listening to me?
Answer.
That is the point of entry into the water supply.
Answer!
Matteo, answer! Fuck!
- It dissolves in contact with water? - Yes.
We witnessed a heated discussion,
almost aggressive, between members of Parliament.
The majority of leaders didn't appear to be united.
In fact, the government is teetering
after having voted on the law liberalizing weapons.
They did their job, but they're finished.
We'll give them the boot.
We need a new government in light of what we'll do with Jupiter.
Right.
We'll need logistical support.
Your mother?
I think she's in the garden.
News on the test?
It's underway.
I'm curious to see how many subjects we'll reach with the first wave.
Me, too.
I'm inserting the activation code.
Okay.
The particles are activated and spreading.
I forgot one thing, Dad.
Today, I had the first prototype made with the third element.
- Good. - I knew you'd like that.
It was as easy as drinking a glass of water.
Don't do it.
It affects the nervous system.
You shouldn't feel any pain.
I did it for your own good.
There's something wrong with her.
You'd see it for yourself if she hadn't blinded you.
Use your brain.
Call Matteo. Now.
Edoardo.
She's hiding something.
I don't know what, but I'm right.
Call him.
Or you're dead.
No.
You're a Zani.
You need to learn to make difficult decisions.
You're like me, Edoardo.
No, I'm not like you.
Hi, Diana.
