He can't ever return to the U.S.
I haven't spoken to Ben
since we cut him loose.
What's going on?
This is our black vault in Brussels.
We were using it as a repository
for sensitive documentation.
It was burgled two nights ago,
our most advanced security systems.
That canister contained
top-secret documents
we were collecting on behalf
of The Department Of Justice
in conjunction with the
Belgian secret service.
Collecting evidence for what?
for negligence in Belgium
against The Halgate Group.
sank six months ago.
The families of the crewmen
want compensation.
Halgate is willing to settle, but one family's
holding out and putting together their case.
The investigators for the family's lawyers
discovered something bigger
than a class action,
something in the ship's manifest.
Incriminating Halgate?
On direct orders from the White House, this
is a top level classified investigation.
What did you find?
A smoking gun.
shipping illegal arms
to destabilize countries for
their own economic gain.
Naturally, the White House thinks it
is our job to destabilize countries.
Someone stole your smoking gun.
Someone breached into the CIA.
Halgate is a criminal.
Without that evidence, the investigation
against The Halgate Group will collapse.
Stakes are too high.
The only thing we have to go on is
that Logan, a top security expert,
was in Belgium at the time of the break-in.
Can you find him?
It's no secret you knew him intimately.
I'll get on it.
Derek?
You said this wouldn't happen.
What wouldn't happen?
You said no one was gonna die.
This was all wrong!
And that means what?
- It means they're all dead.
The company, all the employees.
And they're gonna kill me too.
You said this would end in pink slips.
This wasn't pink slips!
Nothing was supposed to go
down without my approval!
They cut you out of the equation.
Who gave the order?
Braymer.
Where is Logan?
Derek, speak to me!
Derek!
Did you secure the cargo?
Yeah, I have it. But now, this
is gonna play out on my terms.
Tell the consulate in Brussels I'm
coming in and raise a local team.
Now!
Your mom and I were
trying to protect you.
Yeah, from the truth.
Did grandpa know?
Yeah, he always knew.
What exactly did you do for the CIA?
I got people in and out of...
difficult situations.
I'm sorry we lied to you.
Your mother took that photo.
Yeah, she told me.
She could see things I never could.
I miss her too.
Why'd you quit your job?
- To be a father.
I'm not doing too good
of a job of it, am I?
I wouldn't know.
- Oh, really?
We can't go back home, can we?
- No.
We go back home...
they'll find us again.
Who are these people?
I'm not sure.
All I know, those products were real.
And if Halgate wasn't making them,
then somebody else was.
Somebody wanted them compromised.
Look at this.
That's a patent number.
It's etched into some of the products.
We have to find out what's that all about.
Then there's my place of work.
Addresses have owners, clues.
where we're to stay tonight.
Can I have some change?
Nabil said he'd help.
Yes?
Come on.
Karim, this is my dad.
Dad, this is Nabil's brother, Karim.
Hello, Karim.
It's a pleasure.
Nabil said you'd help.
You found us a place in Brussels?
I don't help criminals.
- That's good, 'cause we're not criminals.
Yet you're fugitives.
- Victims of circumstance.
Cash.
Half now, for two nights.
Gimme the money.
Nabil said your sister keeps all the
money and you're up your ass in debt.
Nabil's got a big mouth.
Come on, let's go.
My daughter is just a friend
or you want to tell me something?
No, it's ...
Hey, no fair, what'd you say?
- Go ask him.
Abdul will make sure you get a place.
And it seems to me, you
probably need this more than I.
We are not all mercenaries.
Who are they?
You're not the only one on the run.
Good luck.
It's okay, you can stay
for two days in kids' rooms.
Alright?
Thank you.
When she was sick,
you're all she talked about.
I think...
Sorry to get you guys up at this hour.
Everything we found in his apartment.
Hello?
What have you found?
He was an expatriate living
in Antwerp with his daughter.
Records show, he moved here two
months ago on a business visa.
Don't worry.
I'll find him.
My feeling is there's
really no need to press
for an excavation of the boat.
Self-combustion is a
common risk when you ship
construction materials.
I'm sure we can find a way to
compensate you for this tragic event.
This is not about money,
Mr. Braymer.
I want Mr. Halgate
to appear here personally
and look me in the eye.
And I want him to apologize
for my son's death.
Where are you?
Where do you think?
You told me the CIA had
something you wanted.
I arranged to get it.
Why did you murder these people?
- Let's meet.
One hour.
You dismantled the covert operation
I was running for you.
You used my agents to kill.
You've made Logan the subject of a manhunt!
What the hell got into you?
He was about to find out
the company was a fake.
It was an executive decision.
Logan was looking into the patents.
owned the security systems.
What possessed you to get him involved?
- Because you wanted something done quick!
And he's the best there is.
Tell me you at least have the evidence.
You know what was in the container?
Do you have it?
- We're working on it.
Kohler has the container but we can't find him,
he's not answering his phone, he's...
He's gone.
You don't have Kohler.
You don't have the evidence.
If Logan finds out what we got him involved in...
- He's just an engineer.
CIA Black Ops, you idiot.
We don't make engineers.
Our employer wasn't sure your
personal feelings for Logan
wouldn't cloud your judgment
If Halgate goes down, I go down.
No matter how much security you surround
yourself with if Logan finds out,
he'll get to you.
I can fix this!
Find Kohler, bring in the evidence.
We'll get you his last known location.
What about Ben?
We've got that covered.
We brought in an expert.
Give me the number.
- Okay.
Hold on, hold on.
Alright. Give me the patent number now.
- Okay.
X-D-N
Mei Ling was right.
Halgate doesn't own the patent.
Belongs to Total Security in New York.
Write that down:
785506.Central Intelligence Agency,
may I help you?
Central Intelligence Agency,
may I help you?
Alright, are you ready for this?
Your office address, the address for
Halgate Security System was short-leased,
six months ago to a company
called Markus Wolf Investments.
That company also has another
local registered address
