The East Page #6
Thank you.
We have to sew that up.
(BOTH BREATHING HEAVILY)
Why did you come here?
BENJI:
Sometimes peopledie before they're ready.
Perfect relationships
end in ruin.
Adventures peter out.
Izzy always said
she wasn't scared.
She was scared shitless.
But she didn't flee.
That's what made
her braver than me.
LUCA:
Benji!Stop it! Stop it!
(OBJECTS CLATTERING)
Benji!
Where are you going to go?
What did you expect, that it would be easy?
That it would be painless?
No.
A revolution is never easy.
But that doesn't make it
any less important.
You can't just
walk away from it.
Yes, I can!
for Izzy any day.
That's it.
That's the difference
between you and me.
SARAH:
That was a Hawkstone jam.
It obviously has
not been released.
The group has unraveled without
executing their last jam.
(CLAPPING)
Her name was Kate Cannon.
Her cover identity was Isabella Duncan.
They called her Izzy.
She dropped out of Brown
her junior year...
...when she met William.
I'm subletting a basement
apartment in Georgetown.
(SIGHS) I don't
want to lie to you.
You can still spend
Christmas with my family.
You're still family.
But it's just been
a long time since
I knew what you were thinking.
I haven't been to Dubai.
I've been in an anarchist
collective not that far from here.
Why does someone
do a job like this'?
Tonight
You just close your eyes
And I just watch you
Slip a Way
(SOBBING)
How close am I
To losing you
JIM:
It looks like they're regrouping.You have to go back.
Sharon wants more intel. The
FBI's looking to make arrests.
Hey, are you awake
Yeah, I'm right here
Well, can I ask you
About today
How close am I
To losing you
Come sit.
I should warn you.
Remember when I said
you could just disappear?
I think it's time.
Izzy's dad was all over the news.
I think me and you...
I mean, Doc, everyone.
I think we have to
leave this place.
No. We can't do that.
Why?
I have something
planned for us.
A jam?
Could you just forget that for a moment?
For a month?
Leave with me.
This is going to be
our last jam here.
Then we'll take off.
But this has to happen now.
I need you.
I took a bullet out
of lzzy's stomach.
She's in a hole in the ground.
I don't want to keep going like this.
I can't.
No one will get hurt this time.
You can't promise me that.
Okay.
But I'll do this,
with or without you.
What's the jam?
I won't go in there blind.
You don't have to.
I'll take you there.
Tonight.
Are we almost there?
Yep.
So you can tell me
where we're going.
I think you know.
Since when?
I've been waiting for you
for a long time.
SARAH:
Did everyone know?
No.
Just me and Luca.
What do you want?
operative all over the world.
Their identities...
...locations,
assignments.
No. I'm going to
watch them.
Spy on us and we'll spy on you.
To even get into the building,
you need clearance.
What makes you so certain
I'll get you that list?
I'm not.
I'm not certain of anything.
I'm going to wait.
Here.
For whatever you decide to do.
Pigs!
I need to see Sharon.
She's in video
conference upstairs.
It's urgent. Please let
her know I'm here.
(MAN TALKING INDISTINCTLY)
It's urgent as in "Will you go
upstairs and get her?" Right now.
(TAPPING KEYS)
(CAMERA CLICKING)
(CAMERA CONTINUES CLICKING)
(ELEVATOR DINGS)
What is so important it
couldn't wait fifteen minutes?
The final jam.
It's Lyra.
They're going to
hack the satellite.
Turn all the cameras
in the sky against
the CEO, the CFO, the COO.
Spy on them.
They can do that?
Yeah.
Ooh.
And broadcast it online.
That's clever.
Safe.
(ELEVATOR DINGS)
Oh, the Bureau raided
The East house today.
I thought you'd want to know.
Another cell will
probably pick up the jam.
I was sharing some of your
report with the Bureau...
...and they reminded me of
something I wondered about.
Why all the dumpster diving?
Why not just
grow your own food?
He's got money. Why not
buy an organic farm?
They eat garbage on principle.
It's not rotten food.
It's good food that has to
be thrown away legally.
The system is broken.
And the evidence is the trash.
It has value.
I know... I've been eating three
square meals a day from it.
(BEEPING)
Step aside for
additional screening.
Oh, I'm grabbing something
for Sharon from her car.
Please spread
your arms and legs.
Greg?
(CELL PHONE CHIMES)
(CAR ENGINE STARTS)
We'll send your BlackBerry
upstairs when we're done.
Thank you.
(TIRES SQUEALING)
Wait!
(PANTING)
They raided the house.
Did you get it?
The FBI raided The East house.
Doc is probably
on his way to jail.
Not in vain if you wipe out
the agents on that list.
Did you get it?
No, I didn't.
(THUMPING REPEATEDLY)
They took my BlackBerry.
I know a lot of the people on that list.
We could go to them.
If some of them saw the
things that I've seen...
...they would turn.
They would turn.
Sarah, this was
supposed to be a jam.
We'd destroy Hiller Brood by posting
their agents' real identities online.
Those people work undercover.
You can't expose them.
You could get them killed.
You told me you
wanted to watch them.
I want them to feel the
consequences of their actions.
Then you should start with me.
I'm on that list, too.
You're burned there.
We have to get
across the border.
(TIRES SQUEALING)
I can't get on the truck.
We have to go. It's not
safe for you here.
I can't go.
Can't or won't?
I won't.
Jane.
Come with me.
We don't have that list.
But if we did...
...I think that you and I would want
to do different things with it.
(RETCHING)
Please give me
the strength to do well.
To not be arrogant.
But to not be weak.
Amen.
