He is an assassin for the CIA.

It'll be over before his men

even raise their rifles.

I highly doubt it.

Okay.

Give me a gun. No bullets.

This is wrong.

I need you to

tell some things.

First tell me what

you know, as promised.

You said you remembered everything.

Now, where is Al Wasir?

What happened

with my family?

This is bigger than you think.

Where are the nuclear trigger?

Do not lie to me.

He knew that his wife was here

and she is not helping things.

She is your agent?

- His wife came on their own.

- It's not my wife and you know it.

She is your agent?

If you know everything, then

should know who she is.

What happened

with my family?

Are you crazy?

What happened

with my family?

Were killed, right?

Who?

- I need to know where Al is Wasir.

- Who killed them?

I do not know.

So shoot me if you want.

But no, that's all your fault.

You are alone in this.

What did you do?

You come with us.

No, wait. You got

the wrong guy.

This is the guy you

're looking for.

Right here.

He is Al Wasir.

He's lying.

No one knows how Al Wasir ...

except that it is in Bosnia

and educated in Europe.

I'm American.

The name on his identity,

Nicholas Hanshick is Bosnian.

He was injured when I was

in his camp.

I was working for you.

You never worked for us.

John Reilly worked for us!

He's lying.

You do not even know who you are.

You do not know what kind

monster you are.

His family was killed by a

Allied bomb in Sarajevo

and since you have been in

personal crusade against the U.S..

You are responsible for

death of hundreds of people.

I've been tracking for years.

If this is true

it killed me yet?

Because you are not sure.

I'm sure.

I'm sure now.

Only a terrorist with a brilliant mind

could put us against each other.

Khodorov, I, you ...

This man is the devil.

Can I deliver

Al Wasir true.

You are the real Al Wasir.

Great.

Kill us.

Do not do it. He's lying.

You come with me.

Do not do it. He is a monster.

He is a monster. Do not let it go.

Come. Get in there. Fast.

I'll get you out, sir,

but they can not see you.

Sorry, sir.

But I have to do it.

It was a pleasure to work

you, Mr. Al Wasir.

We need to find. / i

Where?

Instead of always. / i

Sure.

Coffee?

Chocolate.

I prefer grinding my own coffee.

It's much better that way.

Of course, the coffee bean

not edible

but the cultivation and

Pressure roasting

can extract its

unique flavor.

Fantastic!

Coffee originated in Africa.

This is my planting there.

We, the Arabs, have developed.

Today is one of the goods

most actively traded in the world.

Second only to oil.

Europeans add milk and cream ...

but I prefer the original

Turkish coffee, the better.

The problem is that must be baked

right way, you should not burn it.

As you can see, the work

hundreds of men ...

for many years and at the end is

just a question of timing.

Enjoy.

Where are the nuclear trigger?

The transaction is in progress.

I need the money.

Where are the nuclear trigger?

Is not how we operate.

- Then you need to change.

- I disagree.

I want you to know that

matter what happens to you,

're like a son to me.

- I'm sorry.

- What did you do?

If you could choose again.

Who would you be?

Remember what I told you.

You are not what they

want you to think it is.

You got it.

What are you talking about?

- John, you're at home.

- I'm not at home.

You are the perfect spy.

That they think

is one of them.

You're the only spy in the world

to believe his own legend.

What is this?

When he began having doubts?

I have no doubt.

How long?

Three weeks?

Maybe four?

Think ...

No one knew how the Al Wasir was.

As far as we knew,

might even be more than one.

And you were perfect.

All we had to do,

was to convince one of us

that he was Al Wasir

and infiltrate it.

This is impossible.

John.

John.

You know it's true.

You will remember better now.

Your system is clean,

without the effect of drugs.

Do not shoot! Do not shoot!

Nobody shoots!

Sure.

Sure.

- John, let me show you something.

- Show me what?

Here. Relax.

It's okay.

Okay.

Are you ready?

Where am I?

Naval Base, Kuwait City.

This is impossible.

All we had to do was

convince him that it was Al Wasir, John.

My family?

They died, John.

Were killed by Al Wasir

the bombing of the embassy.

Sorry.

John, why not give me the gun?

You do not need it here.

- John, no! No!

- Do not do it.

Not worth it.

Last time I gave you

ears, you betrayed me.

There is reason to kill.

I think you need to look at it.

I, John Reilly,

will be "reprogrammed" as a

undercover agent of the United States.

I understand that drugs

mind-altering, and

techniques for changing the

personality, will be used.

I know, that I

infiltrate the Department of Defense may

be unable to recover.

That?

Ah, yes ...

If you

watching this tape, so ...

we succeeded in seep as

Al Wasir. I know it sounds crazy but ...

Do you remember any of these things?

Should have remembered.

Where is the real Al Wasir?

We got him in

Beirut, remember?

You thought we had achieved.

But the memories are not gone.

They kept coming back.

You agreed to be

"reprogrammed".

Then he signed some papers

and went to Africa for a while.

To assemble your "disguise".

Nicholas Hanshick.

The man who would become Al Wasir.

Our Al Wasir.

Experience created some

important memories for you.

We even had the Biran and the use

later to infiltrate you.

So what?

Then we'll we hit on the head.

"We"?

I did.

Then you induced to raves.

And I brought her here.

And there you were.

Out of memory. Abandoned

a hospital in Nakuru.

Ready to become Al Wasir.

- It will take a while to readjust.

- No time.

Why?

Triggers are here.

There will be a change in 5 days.

We need you.

Stop!

Down!

Down!

If you play on the floor.

- Al Wasir.

- Get out of here.

- Triggers ...

- Go. Get out of here.

Scared me for a moment there.

They need to know

I am not a traitor.

You are a hero.

Your case will be studied at the Academy

for years. What more can you ask for?

I wanted to forget.

I'm not

the type that forgets.

I do not forget.

And I do not forgive.
