The Berlin File Page #3
You're the one that wanted
some private time with the guy.
We're gonna head to
the U.S. Embassy,
And enter the safe-house.
- You mean the laundromat?
- Excuse me. Do you speak English?
No.
We've got about the three hours
until the official time of contact,
so, factorin' in travel,
I can spare you about an hour.
We can say you work for the company
and that you're interrogating him.
That's as far as you
and I take this.
After that,
it's every old dog for himself.
And regardless of
what happens here,
the ClA has no affiliation
whatsoever with this operation.
There should be absolutely no records,
do you here me?
- What's he offering you?
- We're not sure yet,
But he mentioned a file, some kind of
shady account they've been managing.
The Kim Jong-il account?
From Macau?
Oh sweet Jesus.
I wouldn't that
make everyones f***in' day?
You owe me pal big time.
3737 G406.
11 o'clock
Target's location confirmed.
Don't stand out Blend in, idiots!
Did you tap my phone?
You're out of your mind
to interfere with ClA business.
How is North Korean ambassador
a ClA business?
It's ours.
Stand back if anything happens.
I'll take over.
Hey!
Hey!
You, son of a...!
Target is getting away
He's heading to the subway.
Team A follow the subject.
Team B go across.
We gotta snatch the bastard
before anybody else.
Jong-seong.
Think about what you're doing.
We'll talk later.
Freeze!
Put the gun down.
This is our turf.
You don't want any more trouble...
Motherf***er!
Take it easy, man.
Listen to me carefully now.
Go back to the headquarter.
Find everything you can on
the ClA agents out here.
- But it's ClA...
- Shut the hell up.
Another word from your mouth
and I'll chew your brain out.
Hi, Daddy.
I love you.
Good bye.
No.
Come on, Cindy.
You knew my team was
tracking Asim and his network!
Way to bend me
over the barrel, pal!
Send me the address
of the travel agency.
Why did you do it?
I want you to think hard
why Dong Myung-su is here
why your wife is being suspected.
You were planning to abandon
your family and defect to the West.
This is all part of a scheme
set by Dong Myung-su...
No, his father Dong Jung-ho
to take over the Berlin office.
Dong's father wasn't an ally
with the new leader
and yet, he survived.
How?
When Kim Jong-un's men pocketed
profit from illegal weapons trade.
The deal was handled
by Dong Jung-ho.
When the Americans tracked down
the Macau account.
Dongs had to clean up the mess
in order to stay in the game.
What did you get her to do?
But you don't believe
anything I say.
Questioning is in progress.
You can go in.
Jong-seong,
when you're blocked by the sea,
sing 'Arirang' a semitone down
and 'whistle' the chorus.
The Party wants to see
and hear for themselves.
Tell me what you want to hear.
I'll give an answer you want
Your family is never
your concern even to the end.
There is nothing
I can do about them.
He talks as
if he's being framed.
Your name and position.
Lee Hak-su.
I'm an ambassador of
Democratic People's Republic of Korea
to Germany.
Why did you betray your country?
I just sent you the address
of the travel agency.
Frequent address changes
suggest it's a front company.
Shouldn't we notify Chief Kang?
I'll take care of it.
Hello.
There is a break-in
in my building.
The address is Einstenufer 9D.
It's the travel agency building.
What happened here?
Why did you lie to me
about where you were
going this afternoon?
Do you have anything
to say to me?
You knew about it all?
You weren't going to say anything
if I didn't?
I don't know where to begin.
I suppose I missed the right time.
Tell me how it started.
It was an order
from Comrade Ambassador.
Not out of my will.
You're not giving me an answer.
Perhaps I don't know
what you want.
What have you been up to?
What am I supposed to do?
Entertaining guest was an order.
But I assure you.
This baby is ours.
This man was asking me
about an event at the square.
And this is
where my obstetrician is.
Why didn't you tell me?
I thought you wouldn't believe
it's ours.
What I think is not important.
Tell me the truth.
This is the truth.
Why didn't you say
anything earlier?
Did you ever listen?
Do you know what it's like
to endure this kind of filth?
Our first child
It's been two years since
we lost her
How much the little thing
must have suffered...
Have you ever thought about that?
So what?
Were you going to
have an abortion?
How can you say such a thing?
We'll go to the hospital tomorrow.
If it turns out to be false...
You'll report me as a spy?
That will give you
a peace of mind.
That's what the Party
wants to hear.
Today,
Comrade Ambassador made an attempt
to defect to the West.
Write down all your whereabouts
in the last seven days.
Did you get her confession?
We still have time.
I must have interrupted
at an inconvenient time.
How did the interrogation go?
Successful, thanks to you.
His body will be
repatriated to Pyongyang.
Good work, Comrade.
I haven't found any evidence tying
Jung-hee to her charges.
Relax, man.
Congratulations.
You have passed
the loyalty test.
All this was necessary
because of Lee Hak-su.
After Comrade Chairman Kim Jong-il
passed away,
foreign funds coming into
Pyongyang dropped considerably.
While all focus was on ensuring
successful transition of power,
there was a suspicion that
Lee Hak-su
would smuggle his
private assets and defect.
And your name popped up
in the process.
A group of us including
myself insisted
that you would never
betray the Republic.
The Party's position, of course,
is not the same.
So, I suggested that
we test your loyalty.
How can we suspect the loyalty of
a man who will report his own wife
if there are
suspicious circumstances?
Agents from Security Department
will pay you a visit shortly.
You'll return to
Pyongyang and be promoted
in recognition of your loyalty.
Congratulations, Comrade.
You have saved me also.
How much did you hear?
You're a coward.
What the hell are you doing?
Once they find out what you're doing to me,
you're a f***ing dead man.
what do you think
will happen to you?
Today
a North Korean f***ing commie
blew a hole through my friend's head.
At Brandenburg Gate?
My friend was
ClA tracking Asim's group.
If I report your lD
and tell them that
Israel is working with
the North Koreans who took Asim,
your f***ing face will be on every ClA
watch-list in the world within 48 hours.
What now?
Do you want a cool diplomatic dispute
with America over this?
About a month ago,
Pyongyang contacted
Mossad Collections.
I'm not here about your wife
How can a perfectionist like you
let this happen under your nose?
The guilty will stand
for their crime.
They told us that
if we gave them the opportunity
to replace a few of their
people in Berlin...
Then they'd hand over the man
