A Most Wanted Man Page #4
you're going to give me?
Pacifist.
We know about you.
Left-wing lawyer.
Wealthy family.
Father's a judge.
Everything you do says "f*** you" to him.
Is that the best you can do?
Can I go now?
Go where?
Go where?
Back to your self-righteous friends
at Sanctuary North?
But no one's going to saw off their heads,
are they?
Nobody's going to blow up their kids
because you're on a beach in Bali
in Madrid or London.
How f***ing dare you?
How f***ing dare me?
Tell me I've broken every rule in the book?
That I've trampled
on the essence of the constitution?
You want to spout that crap?
Yes?
Do you know where you are?
No, you don't.
This is the real world, Annabel.
We are fighting against the radical
off cuts of a nation called Islam.
You've crossed the line.
You're on their side now.
Hello.
I don't care what you do to me.
But you're not the one we're talking about,
are you, dear?
Lssa must be worried sick.
Wherever you've hidden him,
he's probably wondering
if you're ever coming back.
I hope he doesn't do anything foolish.
Come, sit with me.
Come on.
There are people out there
who want to arrest him.
You know that of course.
We're concerned
that they will find him before we do.
There is a difference between them and us.
They want to hurt him.
We want to help him.
You see, Annabel, we're not your enemy.
We're your solution.
Good.
You know what my guys told me?
When they pulled you off the street?
You didn't put up a fight.
Not really.
You struggled a bit. Screamed a little, but
you let them take you.
It's almost as if you wanted it to happen.
You needed someone
to take it out of your hands
because you are out of your depth, Annabel.
You know you can't save him,
not on your own.
and nobody.
The clock is ticking.
You know they'll find him,
and when they do,
he'll be on the first plane back to Russia,
unless the Americans want him
and then we won't know where he is
and nor will he.
He doesn't want the money.
He just doesn't want it.
Half radical, half
rich kid.
Half Russian, half Chechen.
Loves his mother, hates his father.
You and I both know
Issa Karpov has no idea what he wants.
There is something else
you and I both know, don't we?
We both know he's innocent.
So what do you want?
I want to help him.
Lssa?
Lssa, I'm sorry.
I had a dream.
They took you. They tortured you.
And what happened?
Did I tell them where you were?
No.
You are stronger than I was.
You tell them nothing.
Go and put on something warm.
I want to show you something outside.
Okay.
Right.
Look at him.
He's safe.
There's a bed for you here.
It's better that you don't go home.
Herr Mohr and his boys
are still out looking for you.
Are you trying to get me drunk?
Yes.
How's Karpov?
Getting there.
And the lawyer?
I already got you all the time I can get.
Beirut was our mistake.
One of our agents
blew your network and I know you shared.
We messed up.
Just thought you needed to know that.
We make that kind of mistake.
I can understand why you don't trust us.
Your agents and contacts
were compromised.
Men who trusted you died,
and that stays with you always.
And all that damage
we leave behind.
All those lives,
all those empty rooms,
what would they have been for?
You ever ask yourself that question?
Why we do what we do?
Sometimes.
But I always come back to the same answer.
And what is it?
Isn't that enough?
Move your queen.
Just because you're Russian, doesn't mean
you're a better chess player than me.
I'm Chechen.
Okay, so you're good at chess.
Tell me something else about yourself.
You said your mother is Chechen?
She's dead.
I'm sorry.
My father raped her.
She died when I was born.
She was 15.
It was my mother's.
It's beautiful.
You must go.
You can push him a bit more.
Try to get him emotional.
If it happens naturally, lose your temper.
But he doesn't want the money.
I know.
But he wants you.
Gnther?
You should take care.
Maybe we're pushing too hard.
Don't go soft on me, Irna.
There's no room for that on this one.
Tell me one where there was.
Morning.
Seventy people died in a market
in Baghdad yesterday.
God's will?
Or just a man who was arrogant enough
to kill in his name?
She's good.
Leyla and Melik have been arrested.
They may be deported,
because they were kind to you,
because they invited you in to their home.
Explain it to me, Issa!
God's will?
Explain to me why that man who killed
those women and children in Baghdad
is any different from your own father?
I came to Hamburg to make a new life.
No. You came to Hamburg
to find Mr. Tommy Brue.
You came to claim your father's money.
I told you, I do not want his money.
Forgive me.
Maybe
there's a way
to leave your past behind, Issa.
Take your father's money...
Take your father's money,
and turn it in to something good.
And turn it in to something good.
Your goat is tethered.
It's just an ordinary pen.
Looks like a pen, writes like a pen
and listens like a pen.
Take it apart, it's still a pen.
Are you clear?
Are you clear?
You are acting on behalf
of a wealthy Muslim client.
We've been over this.
You are acting on behalf
of a wealthy Muslim...
Several times.
Who has come in to
a considerable inheritance
and the source of the money
is questionable.
He seeks to distribute these funds
in a spiritually correct manner.
For Christ's sake!
I'm not doing this for you.
Whatever it takes, Tommy.
Hello.
Put your arms up.
Bag?
Hi.
- Hi.
- Hello.
- Mr. Brue?
- Yes.
- Welcome.
- Thank you.
I'm Jamal.
My father is expecting you.
- Can you take off your shoes?
- Of course.
I'll take care of the coat.
Mr. Brue.
- Mr. Brue.
- An honor.
You have met my son Jamal?
Yes, and another at the door, I believe.
Please sit.
Please.
As explained to you,
my client's situation
in Germany is delicate.
These are the details of his offer.
As you can see, there are specific requests
for some money to be sent to Chechnya.
Hospitals and schools.
Perhaps this is a joke?
You have added a zero to test me.
The figure is correct.
Where did this money come from?
It has come to him
in the form of an inheritance.
My client has come to regard it as unclean
and seeks your guidance in disposing of it
in a manner befitting your religion.
You're an honorable man, I believe that.
But tell me, why should I trust you?
We must trust each other surely.
I am willing, under my
client's instruction,
to arrange for significant funds
to be transferred to you.
You are known as a religious man.
A trusted man.
I accept you will direct this money
to the purpose he intends.
Why this urgency?
My client's legal status in Germany
is insecure.
I would recommend
you accept this gift now,
because he may not be
in a position to offer it much longer.
Mr. Brue.
- Here.
- Thanks.
