[tense music playing]
You're too old for this.
This shit has to end.
[door opens]
I can't, Simon.
I found this in the bullet I pulled out of you.
-[Meret] What is it? -A tracker.
It's genius. I've never seen one like it.
He missed my vital organs on purpose to get our location?
-And now Koleev can come straight for us. -Yeah.
Meret.
So far, no one's shown up.
We still have time.
Let's get out of here. Right now. For Nina.
I don't think I can run away anymore.
I want to put an end to this.
If you're staying, so am I.
[door opens]
Pack your things. You've gotta leave. We've been exposed.
You said we were safe here.
Mum, what's going on? Who shot you, and why aren't you in hospital?
Nina, you need to listen to your father and get out of here.
I'm not going anywhere until someone tells me the truth.
Who are you?
Uh, Nina, we can't do this now.
We'll talk tomorrow, okay? Please.
-Hmm? -That's what you keep telling me.
We're in some safe house, Mum just got shot,
and this woman has been clinging onto us like a leech for days.
This is not normal.
[ominous music playing]
This is for you.
It was in case anything ever happened to us.
It'll answer some of your questions.
There's a laptop in the van downstairs. Open it on that.
Okay, they're here now.
Come on. Please, Yul, we gotta move.
There's a 16-year-old girl in there. No harm comes to her.
Understood.
But the rest…
Make sure they don't get out.
Your ex, also.
And yours.
Touché.
Okay, this door will take you to an abandoned stairwell.
They shouldn't know about it, so you'll be in the clear.
-You and Yul will follow Katya out. -What?
[Simon] Katya?
You understand what we're asking you?
-Yeah. -Okay.
Do you remember the spot where we found Gregor?
We'll meet you there.
Okay.
Come on.
-I can't do this. -[Meret] Ninja.
I need you to be brave one last time.
You're going to kill them?
And not get killed yourself?
Well, that's the plan.
I love you so much.
I love you, but I'm sorry. You need to leave. You gotta go!
A needle in a haystack, huh?
There's ten floors.
-[Metin] Only nine on the buzzer. -[Auken] Then we'll start on the tenth.
Metin and I will go in first.
Maybe we can get this done discreetly.
Come on, get in.
What are they supposed to do if we take the van?
You heard what they said. I need to get you outta here.
I don't give a shit about you!
My mother's already been shot once,
my father has that thing in his head, and now there are men here with guns.
Nina.
We'll find a way to help them, okay? We'll…
We'll wait for them and see.
We'll wait and see.
Just get in the van now, please.
[whispering] Get in, go.
[taut, frenetic music pulsing]
You poisoned your mistress and murdered your unborn child.
Now I understand why you never want to talk about Belarus.
How did you find me?
That's your question?
Yes, because it means someone on my team is leaking information.
My father's in Berlin.
He called Auken.
-Did you kill this child or not? -No.
Sounds like someone's been feeding you bullshit.
I'm here trying to rescue her.
Belarus was a total clusterfuck, and I'm not proud of what I did there.
But those assholes took my child!
She's in that building, right now,
and I'm going to get her!
You're doing this right now?
[radio squawks] Targets have been located and captured.
Josef, this shit can't happen!
Not on German soil,
and not when you're the ambassador's husband.
[radio squawks] Awaiting further instructions.
I swear, if you go through with this…
I'm coming.
Josef!
Son of a bitch!
Get me out of here.
Right now!
Hey, you two.
I have an offer.
[Koleev] Hmm.
Too bad.
I must've missed all the fun, I guess.
It's just the two of them. I did a sweep. The girl's not here.
[Koleev] Don't worry. We'll deal with that a little later.
But you actually did it.
I had my doubts, but I've got to give you credit.
Bravo.
Come on.
[uneasy music playing]
[Koleev clears throat]
Shoot them both.
[bullets clanging]
[suspenseful music playing]
Fuck!
You really think I'm dumb, huh?
[Auken choking]
Hotel rooms have mirrors.
What did your ex write to you? Huh?
Hey.
"I'll let you live. I never threatened your family."
"I'm not your enemy. Jonas." You think I'm the enemy, hm?
Your response?
"I'll help you, but you'll need to kill Koleev."
"I can't do it. Sasha would kill me."
Huh? Yeah.
Sasha also wants you to know
this is what happens when you threaten his child.
[door clicks]
[menacing music droning]
[gears grinding]
[henchman] Shit.
[Koleev] Go.
[henchman grunting]
[blood gurgling]
[gunfire in distance]
[high-pitched ringing]
[muffled groan]
[Koleev] Fuck!
[high-pitched ringing continues]
[audio distortions rushing]
[delicate, emotional music playing]
Hey, Ninja. You'll probably hate it that I still call you that. [chuckling]
Yeah. Whenever you watch this.
We're filming on your tenth birthday.
And, honestly, we really hope you're never going to have to watch it.
[Meret] But if you are watching this right now,
then something really bad must've happened to us.
[high-pitched ringing continues]
[Meret] This is hard to say, but before you were born, Ninja,
your father and I were actually BND operatives.
Secret agents. We had fake names, fake identities, fake pasts, all of it.
[Simon] But when you were born, we stopped all that,
because we wanted you to live a normal life.
With normal parents.
[Meret] I'm sorry.
[Simon] But as sometimes happens, we were pulled back in again.
[Meret] And started living a second life, alongside the amazing one we had with you.
[Simon] And when there were times when you thought we were hiding something,
then… that's what it was.
[Meret] We made a promise to ourselves and each other to always protect you.
[Simon] And nothing we've ever done in either life
has been as important to us as being your parents.
You'll probably hear a lot of stories about us.
-You'll hear we were bad people, -[Meret] …who did terrible things.
[Simon] But just remember, you know us, sweetheart.
You… You know the real us.
[henchman straining]
-[Simon] We love you. -So much it hurts.
[high-pitched ringing continues]
[henchman gagging]
[Koleev wheezing]
[suspenseful music playing]
Time to go.
[engine turns over]
They're my parents. I'm not just gonna leave them here.
Nina?
If we go up there right now, we'll both be dead.
I'll be on my own if I lose them. Let me go now.
That's not true.
You'll have me.
I barely even know who you are.
You need to trust me right now.
Why should I trust you? I don't know you!
-'Cause I'm-- -[door opens]
[urgent, ominous music playing]
[Meret] Get the stretcher, Yul!
-[Nina] Dad? -Get him to the van.
-[Katya] Okay. I got him. -Mum, what's wrong with him?
Let go, let go. [Meret grunts]
Okay, two on either side.
Nina, grab his feet.
One, two, and three!
Okay.
Okay. Go, go, go!
We need help over here, please!
This is my husband. He's had an aneurysm.
We got into an accident.
He's been unconscious for about 20 minutes.
[doctor 1] Suspected SAH. Get his vitals. Which resus room?
[doctor 2] We'll need a CT scan stat. Inform radiology.
Come back to me, please. Don't make me do this alone.
-[doctor 1] The patient's name? -Simon.
-Okay, Simon. -[doctor 2] They've been notified. In 15.
[doctor 1] Fifteen, got it. We need to move. We're monitoring.
Right, we need to get through here. Please step aside.
Hey.
[distraught music playing]
[mysterious, menacing music playing]
We need to talk about Josef.
All right. I always knew he'd be a problem.
Starfish was exposed.
Exposed.
Now dead, suicide.
But there's more to it.
Now I know exactly what happened in Belarus.
Who the hell is my husband?
Tell me what you need me to do.
I'm not stepping down as ambassador.
But my marriage is over.
With or without a divorce, I don't really care.
But Koleev's gotta go back. He's a liability for me.
I'm sorry, but that's not possible.
But why not?
Starfish is dead now, Dad.
You don't need a liaison officer.
But what you do need is an ambassador, don't you?
Why did he have to go and kill himself?
Who?
Starfish, you know.
[foreboding music playing]
What if I could give you back your man on the inside?
Then could I be ambassador?
And liaison?
Because you just said "he."
But the woman who I talked to said Starfish was a woman, Dad.
So he covered his tracks,
framed someone else, and played them all like fools.
I raised a smart little girl.
You are clever, aren't you?
Hmm.
Can I have my phone now?
It's evidence in the case.
Go on.
But if the informant contacts you again, come to me immediately.
Yes, I promise.
Can you imagine what we could achieve with something like this?
Undocumented spies working for us?
You're not seriously saying that in front of Internal Affairs, are you?
It's just a thought.
[knocking at door]
[door opens]
Give us a second.
Of course.
It's time to go back to Moscow.
But you always said you'd never go back there.
I'm not going, you are.
Is that clear?
You're going to go back to Moscow.
And I'll remain here as ambassador.
[tense, restrained music playing]
Is that understood?
Okay.
Come on, get yourself ready.
I'll get you some fresh clothes.
Is this what it felt like when I had my surgery?
Not knowing.
Yes, and you made it.
Your father's gonna make it too.
[Yul] I'm gonna grab something to eat.
Need anything?
[Meret] I'm getting some fresh air.
Okay.
Please let me be the one to tell her.
Okay?
Okay.
Thank you.
[pensive music playing]
[exhales sharply]
[breathing shakily]
Mr. Koleev. The ambassador had to run.
She asked if you would wait for her over here.
Did she say how long she'd be gone?
No. But she wanted me to tell you the transfer has been arranged.
Everything's prepped.
[entrancing cello music playing]
[Sasha] You can't be that surprised to see me, Josef.
You must've known sooner or later,
you'd have to answer for your countless mistakes.
Eventually, we all reach a point
when it's time to get rid of a cockroach or two.
It's impressive. You lasted 16 years more than you had any right to.
[intricate cello music intensifying]
[music subsiding]
Hello, Starfish.
Where's Koleev?
I admit, I'm impressed with you.
That you could kill and manage to frame someone.
Do you have any idea what it took for me to kill her?
And now this shit in Schöneberg?
You've all completely lost your minds.
That was my husband.
But I'm not like him.
You'll realize that about me very quickly.
I'm your liaison officer now.
I'm not doing this anymore.
And I should've gone to my superiors when you lot approached me the first time.
We're done here.
Don't be silly, Ben. Please.
Come back here.
We're only just getting started.
[Ben on recording] Do you have any idea what it took for me to kill her?
And now this shit in Schöneberg? You've all complete--
You and I are going to have so much fun, Ben.
I'll be in touch.
[church bell tolling in distance]
Mrs. Schäfer?
I'm happy to say I've got some good news for you.
We were able to remove your husband's aneurysm.
He's doing good.
If you'll follow me, I'll take you to him now, okay?
He's already awake and asking for you.
[line ringing]
[phone ringing]
[Katya] Julika?
Yeah?
Do you know who this is?
Is your name Katya?
Do you have Koleev?
Um, not yet, but, um…
I told Vera Koleeva everything, so I assume if we don't get to him,
Sasha will.
I want to make a deal.
What do you have to offer?
[knocking at door]
You're already out of bed.
[Simon] Hmm.
Another 20 minutes,
and the doctor said I would've had brain damage.
No one would know the difference.
[both chuckling]
Oh, stop it.
-I don't want to hurt you. -Yeah, just be careful.
Where's Nina?
Downstairs waiting.
Soon as you feel up to it, we're getting out of Berlin, okay?
-Hm? -Mm-hmm.
Uh… I'm okay.
Okay.
-Do you want some water? -Mm-mm.
Hang on. That hurts…
To save our marriage, I stole a child.
We both made that choice.
[Simon] Mm-hmm.
And… then I lied to you,
because I knew you'd want to give her back.
You're right, I… Probably, yes.
I couldn't know then how much I wanted a child,
but then I had one.
For years, I've tried to be a better person.
I've tried to undo all the things I did, but everything…
I'm just trying to make it right.
Meret, I don't know who that was
in the hotel room the last few days with a gun in my hand.
I just know I don't want it to be me anymore.
I don't wanna be that person.
And when I'm with you, I…
Sometimes, it…
it brings all those bad parts of me back out.
I don't know what to say to that right now, Simon.
[mournful music playing]
We should've broken up back then.
It was over already.
Now it's just over again, huh?
I think you're right.
Where's my mum?
Koleev knows we're here.
Your mother's making a deal with the BND so your father can get protection,
and my orders are to get you out of here immediately.
Where's Nina?
With Katya.
[harsh, distressing music playing]
[vehicle approaching rapidly]
-I wasn't sure you'd come. -Makes two of us.
Get in.
[frenzied, urgent music pounding]
Move in now.
[sirens wailing]
[officer] Police!
Show me your hands!
Stay back!
[cacophonous yelling, blaring]
[music subsiding]
[officer] Meret Shaffer, you're under arrest
on suspicion of murder.
You have the right to remain silent. You have the right to an attorney.
If you do not have one, one will be appointed to you.
These officers are here to arrest you for the murder of Jonas Auken.
[officer] You're being placed under arrest for violating section…
Nina.
Katya.
[tense outro music playing]
