Iza and her parents waited

for you till eleven.

I'm sorry, I completely forgot.

You aren't drunk...

- Have you got a lover?

- What?

I'm asking if you have a lover.

I'm asking you, a person with whom

I've lived under one roof for

25 years, if you've got a lover!

Tell me straight to my face; it'll be

better than what you're doing.

What am I doing?

F***ing hell!

You don't respect me!

How long have you had a lover?!

I was at work...

Don't lie to my face;

you can't do it!

Don't you dare lie to me!

Where were you instead

of being home with your son?!

Is it serious?

Do you want to live

with her, have children with her?

Or is she one of your secretaries,

a 20-something doll for one night?

Hania, I was at work.

We've got a lot...

You don't love me; I can live

with that somehow,

but I will never forgive you

for not respecting me!

Welcome dear friends

from our allied army.

Let's go.

Attenion!

To work,

there's not much time...

You've legalized

through the courts

a subversive group named

"Solidarity," haven't you?

Are you going to do

something about it?

I don't see any such plans.

If you don't,

I have 15 Soviet

armored divisions,

two Czech, and one German

that will restore order here.

I'll stifle

your counterrevolution

before it cuts your heads off.

Just make sure, comrade general,

that you don't interfere

with my doing so in your backyard.

Thank you for your concern,

comrade marshal.

We'll consider it,

confer with party officials,

and let you know.

Thank you.

Sasza, how nice to see you.

The marshal wants to talk

to you before he leaves.

You Poles are fools.

Do you think Solidarity

will close the gulag?

We'll end up there!

All of us.

You are the brightest planner here,

comrade colonel.

- You exaggerate, comrade marshal.

- Modesty is good, in daughters;

in whores it's unbecoming

and unnecessary.

You planned the Czechoslovakia

invasion in 1968, didn't you?

Yes, I did, comrade marshal.

Listen to me carefully,

Kuklinski.

If we start to help you here,

the West will never accept

another Afghanistan here in Poland.

Not now, comrade general.

There will be war,

and no one will beat us

if we stick together.

Understand, Kuklinski?

War changes everything.

That's what your bourgeois

minister Beck said.

War it is! Everyday matters fade

into the background. Understand?

What I'm telling you

is top secret.

Only a few people in Moscow know.

Yes, comrade!

You'll get the plan I worked up

myself and you'll coordinate

the actions of your army

with our second-strike forces.

We worked this up once already

as part of operation "Shield 68."

KULIKOV IS PLANNING...

FOR 18 ARMIES TO BE READY

ON DECEMBER 8, 1980.

No, Marshal Kulikov is not playing

some sort of game.

The party rules here,

not Marshal Kulikov.

The army only implements

government and party decisions.

I wish you a good night too.

Comrade Marshal Kulikov,

are you planning an invasion

of Europe?

May I sit down?

Are you or not?

Sit down.

No.

Are there plans for

invading Europe?

What do you mean,

comrade general secretary?

If your plan is based

on the assumption that

intervention in Poland

will turn into a third world war,

they your plans have misfired;

the Americans have seen

through them.

They sent a note to Indira Gandhi,

who accepted it with understanding.

That's almost a billion people.

No war and no intervention!

Am I clear, comrade marshal?

- It's not so simple...

- So it's true!

There will be no war and

no intervention.

Such is the will

of the Communist Party of the USSR.

You are free to go, Comrade Kulikov,

for the time being...

What's wrong, comrade marshal?

Send a doctor to my office

for Marshal Kulikov immediately.

Ivanov.

Ivanov! There's a spy in Poland!

There's a spy working right

under your nose, Ivanov,

making a fool out of you,

which is no big deal because you

are a fool

but he's making

a fool out of me!

And for that heads will roll.

Yes, comrade marshal.

One more leak out of Poland

and rest assured what happens to you

will not be pleasant.

Find the son of a b*tch now!

- Ryszard, what's wrong?

- Got it?

Yes.

- Just one?

- It's more than enough.

- How does it work?

- You bite it and swallow.

You pass out in eight seconds;

they say

it's completely painless.

- Are you sure you want it?

- Yes. Thank you.

We can evacuate you immediately.

But this is my home...

Don't do anything rash.

Even if you can't see a way out,

we'll find it.

I promise you I'll find it.

If something happens,

I won't abandon you.

Go now.

- Colonel Ryszard Kuklinski?

- That's right.

- Does the colonel have a safe?

- Yes. Why?

Delivery from the Ministry

of Internal Affairs - top secret.

Keep the documents in the safe

and do not show them to anyone.

Do not remove them from this room,

copy them, or make any notes.

By order of the Minister

of Internal Affairs. Please sign.

OPERATION "SPRING"

The Military Council of

National Salvation...

arrest and intern 5897...

Solidarity activists

and so-called "dissident groups."

Bujak...

Kuron...

Wujec Henryk...

Walesa Lech...

- Leaving early today?

- Yeah, so long.

- Have the shops gotten deliveries?

- No, but this morning in the city...

- Are you hurt?

- No, but I feel dizzy.

- Careful! Can you stand?

- Yes, I have to get home...

Home? Your nose is broken.

- Go to the clinic; we'll join you.

- You really f***ing smacked it!

You might have a concussion.

- My papers...

- Forget them.

- Do you feel sick?

- Give me a hand.

- My papers, I have to...

- All right, all right.

- Does he have a concussion?

- Probably not,

but the colonel should go

to the hospital for observation.

I have to go home;

I have work to do...

Sit still or your nose

will be crooked.

Fine, we know it's a tough time,

a crisis, but you're working so hard

you're walking into walls.

What happened?

Did someone attack you?

Yeah, Solidarity.

Thank God. I thought you'd lost

your mind. Here are your papers.

I found them all.

What's going on?

The Soviets are evacuating

their civilian personnel.

Make sure this gets

to the pope in Rome.

Sit down.

- Eight people?

- Yes, comrade marshal.

- All from Poland?

- Yes, comrade,

according to my "Roman source."

You've got a spy

in the pope's closest circle?

My source in Rome reports

that the CIA

has the plans from martial law,

including Operation "Spring,"

which Gen. Siwicki presented

at the meeting of the Polish

National Defense Committee.

That's about thirty people.

Yes, but the text the CIA sent

to the Vatican does not include

the handwritten corrections

Gen. Siwicki made just before

his presentation to the committee.

The CIA's text is an early version,

which only eight people had.

- When are you going to Poland?

- The plane is waiting.

We have a traitor in

the general staff!

A f***ing spy working

for the Americans!

- Where's the suspicion from?

- It's no suspicion.
