Find him!
Move!
Khalid, where are we going?
Who is it?
It's Khalid. They've taken Omar.
Open, open.
They took Omar.
They took Omar.
Go in the kitchen
and boil some water.
So we can clean him up.
You should not have
brought her here.
What are we going to do
about her?
Leave her out of it.
I'm not going to her house.
You've got to understand,
she is not her father.
Then we will do it another way.
They have Omar.
They will make him talk.
Over.
It is over.
Then...
we must do it now.
Remember your brother.
Remember your brother.
She called you?
Yes, she did.
She didn't like the way you
approached her in public.
Well, she wouldn't return
my calls.
Well, Alan,
she's not obliged to.
You have a personal stake
in this...
so let me show you
what she gave me.
For a year,
NSA has been tracking calls...
from Rashid Salimi.
Last week, a number they say
was one of his...
was tracked connecting
to a cell phone...
registered to your guy.
- Salimi called Anwar?
- Maybe.
Maybe.
What do you mean "maybe?"
Did he contact him,
or didn't he?
I said maybe.
You know these guys.
They give away
their cell phones.
They switch numbers.
He could have passed the phone
to somebody related to Ibrahim.
We don't know.
Or somebody passed it on
to somebody...
who passed it on
to somebody.
- Who knows, right?
- Yeah. Who the f*** knows?
But there could be
a connection.
Now, you wanna bet your career
on something...
that could go either way?
I don't.
We got a bill
we're trying to get passed.
This business of yours
is just gonna muddy things up.
You wanna be the guy
who never has to compromise...
then go join
Amnesty International.
In this business here,
to get things done...
you gotta give,
and you gotta take.
You got it?
If we're gonna get
into a fight about rendition...
it's gotta be the right fight
at the right time...
and it's gotta be a watertight
case, and this ain't it!
But, listen.
I knew Anwar.
Okay? He was a solid guy.
We'll, isn't that interesting?
That's exactly what they said
about Mohammad Atta in Hamburg.
You start
pushing this thing...
they're gonna scream
national security...
at the top of their lungs...
and you and I are gonna be
called bin Laden lovers.
You want that? I don't!
Back off!
I got a meeting.
- Good morning.
- Morning, Samantha.
Alan, Isabella's here.
Can I get you a hot tea?
No, I'm okay. Thank you.
- Hi.
- Hey.
So, what's happening?
- Uh...
- What do you have?
Have a seat. Here.
Want some coffee?
No. I can't drink coffee, Alan.
That's right.
What is it?
What do you have?
Okay.
You need a lawyer, Izzy.
There is evidence that
Anwar has been in contact...
with a terrorist group
called El-Hazim.
What?
What evidence?
It's classified.
Classified.
What does that mean?
That means
that I'm the wrong person...
to be looking
into this for you.
Alan, I know everything
that you're doing for me...
and I'm sure
this must be hard for you.
I'm not naive.
Maybe I even expected the worst.
But please, please
don't let that happen.
Please don't be one of those
people who just turns away.
I'm sorry.
There's just nothing else
I can do.
What is it
they say he's done?
I don't really know.
You don't know?
Well, who does know?
Because I need someone
to look me in the eye...
and tell me exactly
what it is they say he's done.
What has he done, Alan?!
That's the name
of a lawyer...
who really knows
his way around Washington.
You should take it, Izzy.
Isabella.
Tomorrow at 11:
00,she'll be here.
Thank you.
Please.
Please! Please! God!
No more!
I want to know what else
Rashid is planning.
I want names.
I want addresses.
I want to know
about future attacks.
Do you understand?
I don't know.
If you died here today,
right now, who would miss you?
Your wife
would eventually remarry.
Your son would call
another man "father."
Why are you doing this
to yourself?
No, no. No, no, no, no.
Enough. Enough. Enough!
This is my interrogation.
You observe, Douglas,
nothing more.
Put the gag on.
- Put the gag on.
- No. No.
No. No. No. No.
No. No. No. No.
Wait! Wait! Wait!
He contacted me a year ago.
Who contacted you?
Rashid.
How?
He called me...
on my cell phone.
What? What did he want?
Information.
What information?
Chemical composition
to increase explosive power.
- Did you give him that information?
- Yes.
Did you ever speak
with any of his aides?
Yes.
Names.
Did he pay you?
How much?
Forty thousand.
Where is the money?
I haven't received it yet.
When was he
gonna give it to you?
When I was in South Africa.
Why South Africa?
I didn't want
a large amount of money...
being wired to me in America.
Where is the money?
I don't know.
The courier didn't show up.
Names.
Names.
Hey, it's the man of the hour.
- Congratulations, Alan.
- Didn't I tell you?
You beat 'em
on this one, huh?
- Yes.
- Congratulations.
- A great day for us.
- Did I tell you?
- You told me.
- Congratulations.
Come. I'm not going
to hurt you. Come.
Where?
To a bigger cell.
Come.
Do you know
what they will do to Omar?
Do you?
Douglas,
it's 5:
00 in the morning.What is this?
- I Googled it.
- Okay.
Anwar left Egypt for America.
Those are the men
that he said were members...
of the El-Hazim Brigade.
It's a f***ing soccer team.
This is why you've got me
out of bed?
To show me he's a liar?
He said that--that Rashid
paid him $40,000.
- Well, that's a big incentive.
- He makes $200,000 a year.
Why would somebody who--who
makes $200,000 a year...
risk his life and his family
for $40,000?
We have a saying.
"Beat your woman every morning.
"If you don't know why,
she does."
I don't know what that means.
If you don't have
the stomach for this...
then you should ask
to be reassigned.
Douglas, I can't help you.
We have a saying, too.
Do you know Shakespeare?
Of course,
I know Shakespeare.
"l fear you speak
upon the rack...
where men enforced
do speak anything."
Saeed.
In all the years
you've been doing this...
how often can you say...
that we've produced truly
legitimate intelligence?
Once?
Twice? Ten times?
I mean,
just give me a statistic.
Give me a number.
Give me--Give me
a f***ing pie chart.
I love pie charts.
Anything. Anything
that outweighs the fact...
that if you torture
one person...
you create ten, a hundred,
a thousand new enemies.
What are you doing?
Those are his release forms.
Yes, I can see that.
I need you to sign them.
We brought him to you.
He's my responsibility.
Now I'm asking you
to sign those.
Do you know
what this will mean for you?
- Morning.
- Good morning, Senator.
- Shall we go in?
- Mrs. Whitman.
Yes?
My name
is Isabella El-Ibrahimi.
I'm sorry.
My husband
is Anwar El-Ibrahimi.
Please,
just tell me where he is.
Please just
let me talk to him.
I have no information
on your husband, Mrs. Ibrahim.
Ma'am, I have a son.
