But if you awaken it....
You have but one objective:
You must reach
the Krasnokholmskiy Bridge...
...at precisely 10:30
with your KGB tail in tow.
They will see you make the rendezvous,
and then you must obey...
...the people you meet completely.
Whatever they tell you to do...
...you do.
Mr. Cunningham.
This to any Soviet policemen will appear
to be a cheap transistor radio.
It will even pick up
the local radio stations.
In actuality,
this is your life in the air.
Because once you're airborne,
you have just two objectives:
Avoid their tracking systems
and find your refueling point.
This little radio is a highly
complex one-way homing device.
It will be scanning the airwaves,
seeking out a complicated set...
...of alternating frequencies
coming from Mother 1.
The Soviets will be listening
for any transmission up in the air.
So this is your only link
with the outside.
Once it picks up the signal, you're within
100 miles of your refueling point.
You will then follow it home.
It must never leave your person.
If you lose it, if it is confiscated,
you'll never make it out of Russia.
You will run out of fuel
and you will die in the Arctic Ocean.
Well, get up and walk around.
Let's have a look at you.
Mr. Sprague,
can you be comfortable with it?
-Yes.
-Good.
Bloody damn good.
-The flight recorder.
-Huh?
The flight recorder.
Oh, yes. I nearly forgot.
Yes, one last thing.
We just learned this from Baranovich:
There will be a recording device
in the cockpit.
A "black box"
I believe you Americans call it.
It is voice-activated.
It was installed for their test pilot.
We'd like you to use it.
In the event that, well....
If it should happen, and we were
somehow able to salvage the aircraft...
...it might be possible to reconstruct
enough from your diary, as it were...
...to be helpful.
-Sir?
-Yes, yes, yes, I'm coming.
Now, Mr. Gant, I suppose this is
the end of the road for us.
Actually, let me rephrase that.
Let's say the beginning.
I'll be with you every step
of the way, Mitchell.
Your papers.
-Yes, Mr. Sprague?
-Yes.
What is the nature of your
visit to Moscow?
-Business.
-Yes, what business? Specifically.
Carburetors. Bearings.
It's all right in there.
Mind telling me what you're looking for?
You have been to the Soviet Union
several times in the past few months.
Is that correct?
I've been here six times
in the past few months.
Nothing like this has ever happened.
What's going on?
We apologize for the delay.
But every international airport
has its own set of...
...unique problems.
I've been in every airport in the world.
I've never been insulted like this.
I'm a businessman.
I do business with your superiors.
-Are you threatening me, Mr. Sprague?
-No.
And why do you bring this?
Perhaps you are hoping to receive your
stock market report in Moscow?
Moscow Hotel.
Stop over here.
Why here?
Across the square is Hotel Moscow.
Thanks. I'll walk.
Thank you, sir.
I agree. We cannot be too cautious
at this late point in time.
You will pass that on?
Consider it done, sir. It will make
a fine complement to the dog patrols.
Very good. Now, tell me...
...where will our traitors be
in the hours before the flight?
The three scientists will be
inside the hangar itself, sir.
Baranovich himself will be working on
the weapons system during the night.
He will be working on the aircraft
until takeoff.
Yes, comrade colonels.
And what of the others?
Natalia and Semelovsky will be concerned
with refueling and loading the missiles.
Also, the rearward defense pod.
They are most familiar with the systems.
Not easy to replace.
I understand,
let them continue working.
-Your men will be ready.
-Yes, sir.
Our informers will be with them all night.
They'll be armed.
As long as they can recognize
attempted sabotage when they see it.
-They do, comrade colonel.
-Good flight back, Viktor.
I want the Moscow end of their pipeline
arrested at dawn. Wait until then.
I don't want our friends in Bilyarsk
to disappear.
Very well, sir.
I will have their warehouse watched,
and move in on your orders.
Very good, Dmitri.
I should like to see them
before I fly to Bilyarsk.
Just to see their faces.
Your best Havana, please.
Mr. Sprague?
Yeah?
It's him.
I'm Leon Sprague.
How many followed you?
Three of them on foot
and one car up above.
What are they doing now, Pavel?
The one on the steps
has returned to the car.
The short one is wondering what to do...
...since there are four of us now.
I think he is frightened.
He'll call for assistance.
We better get him out of here.
-Take his cigar.
-What?
His cigar! Smoke it.
Smoke it!
Your papers, quickly.
Your papers!
Come on!
Quickly, follow us to the metro station.
Quickly!
They have killed him, Stechko.
They have killed Mr. Leon Sprague.
Your name is Michael Lewis now.
You are a tourist staying
at the Warsaw Hotel.
It is all arranged.
Do not worry, just stay calm.
Passport.
-Mr. Lewis, you're American?
-Yes.
You do not look like yourself in this
photograph. Your hair is darker.
I was a little heavier then too.
-St. Louis is a fine city, I understand.
-Yes, nice summers.
You do not appear to be
in the best of health.
I've had stomach problems.
The food is....
-The food at the Warsaw is not good?
-It's fine. Just a little rich for me.
Ah.
Thank you, Mr. Lewis.
You look terrible, Mr. Lewis.
I watched your performance.
It was not very convincing.
-You kill Sprague and dump a cover--
-Hide in the toilets, over there.
Get yourself together.
There will be more KGB on the way.
We shall leave only when they are confident
we have been searched three or four times.
Go.
No.
No. No.
I'm busy.
English or American? State Security.
Your papers, please.
-Can you wait a minute?
-Very well. Quickly.
Your papers, please.
Are you ill, or maybe frightened?
I've been having some
stomach problems.
Your papers are not in order.
-They're in order. Look at them again.
-No.
They are not in order.
You stupid American. You've killed him!
He went for his gun. He knew.
He's KGB!
Do you understand what that means?
Do you?
Now go up the stairs,
make your way quickly to the exit!
If anyone stops you, obey them.
Show them your papers.
And pretend you are ill, as before.
Understand?
He said my papers werent in order.
You damned fool!
They are in order!
I was stopped by the KGB.
My papers also were in order!
Now get out of here.
When they find this,
no one will be allowed to leave. Go!
I'm an American, I didn't know
what I was supposed to do.
-You're an American?
-Yes.
Why are you out of line?
Papers, please.
You should wait in line, Mr. Lewis.
You have been most uncooperative
in your behavior.
-Well, I'm sorry--
-Well, well.
Let's see what we have here.
We don't want to...
...delay you unnecessarily, do we?
No.
