Gladys.

the drawer on the left.

If these walls could talk, huh?

All this history. I envy you.

You can be just like me.

- No, really.

The debt this country

owes you guys.

Chuck, are we gonna

dance all night with

your hand on my ass,

or are you gonna

make your move?

You used to run

an agent named Bishop.

- Tom Bishop. Yeah. How is he?

- We'd like to take a look at his files.

Did you try Records?

Of course, we have his main files.

It was your personals.

- What do you want to know?

- We'll have your Bishop

op reports downloaded...

and sorted in an hour ortwo;

for now, I'lljust takke your files.

Grab yourself a seat and

make yourself comfortable.

It's gonna take me a while

to dig 'em up.

Call my office as soon as

you have 'em. ASAP.

Oh, Muir?

Good luck

with the retirement.

The director sent this down.

Actually, it looks like

he signed it himself.

Oh, and Harkker said

I'm supposed to collect

allyour files on Tom Bishop.

Finally get to use

one of these burn bags.

Hold this, till

you hear otherwise.

- You didn't see what I put in.

- Are we feeling a little

paranoid on our last day?

When did Noah

Before the rain.

Before the rain.

[Security Code Beeping,

DoorSliding Open ]

Hey, Billy,

Chinese translator?

[ Radio Chattering

[ Man Continues ]

No, that lookks

L ookks good.

...as for the upcomi ng trade

negotiations in the Far East,

a team of negotiators has been

working with the Chinese...

in an effort to streamline

the proceedings...

and lay the groundworkk for

the President's trip next weekk.

In other world news...

Jeez.

now that the Cold War

is finally over, Berliners

are proclaiming a new era...

here where

Soviet and American tanks

faced each other...

in the darkest days

of the Communist--

Is this it?

It's all I could find.

Packed, misplaced--

you know how it is.

Moving day and all.

It's probably

mostly up here anyway.

Old school,

you know?

Muir?

Step this way?

Sit down here, please,

Muir?

Jesus, Aiken.

How long has it been?

[ Sighs ]

This task force

have a name?

- [ Blinds Whirring Open ]

- [Man ]

This is a tough one, Troy.

I'm gonna

see you later.

You got it, Cy.

[Door Closing]

[ Sighing ]

Good to see you.

Thanks for stoppin' by.

For the record, we've

been joined by Nathan Muir,

Near East ops.

[ Sighs ]

We're in the process

of dealing...

with a fairly specific...

international flap.

We brought you in here

as a stopgap.

- Fill in a few holes for us.

- So I'm like

the little Dutch boy, huh?

[ Chuckling ]

Yeah!

We just need you

to be a team player

on this one, Muir.

- [ Chuckling ]

- Why is that funny?

Every time my coach

told me that, I knew

I was about to get benched.

[ Chuckling ]

Due to the nature

of this task force, Nathan,

there will be

certain information which

you don't need to know.

A weekk ago, Tom Bishop

disappeared in Hong Kong.

Last ni ght he turned up

outside Shanghai.

He's been arrested

for espionage.

We're working up a profile

based on relevant personal

histories and op records.

This has to be handled

with kid gloves.

How long does the president

have to claim him?

- Twenty-four hours.

- Starting when?

As of now, Nathan.

Bishop has been classified

as a common criminal,

and will be executed

at 8:
00 A.M. tomorrow

morning, our time.

What about the press?

Why not leak it and throw

the spotlight on China,

and buy us some time?

We need the press on this

like we need a third teat.

- You using the other two?

- [ Troy Chuckling ]

We don't want outside influences

to... Iimit our options.

What was Bishop

doing in China?

He was with an operation

for Harry Duncan.

Was?

Yes.

Until he took matters

into his own hands.

Well, where are they

holding him?

- Oh, I'm sorry, Nathan.

- It would be nice to know

what gaps are filled.

I've only got ten fingers

here, you know?

[ Inhales Deeply ]

I guess, kind of

tough timing, hmm?

A week before

the president's road trip.

You guys afraid there's gonna

be a congressional hearing?

That's why we're transcribing

and videotaping. Right?

Are you gonna

want me to testify?

- No.

- No?

Absolutely not.

- You met Bishop in Vietnam, right?

- Yeah.

[ Sighs ]

Spring of'75.

Hue had just fallen. Danang

would go in a couple of days.

And I had flown in country

to get an ARVN sniper...

who'd been with us

throughout the Phoenixprogram.

He was a heavy hitter

named Binh.
