to the French Embassy.

Samir is going to flip.

- Sure is! What can you do?

- I'll have to find a way.

It's only 10:
15.

These gentlemen are very worried,Jim.

- There's nothing to worry about.

- Good.

No,No, I won't go into details!

All right, I came 4 times.

The great total amount of this year.

- What do you mean by this year?

- I mean this year.

Tune in to Canale 5.

Luisa is on TV.

- Why isn't the bag back?

- What was that?

WCT wanted the head of Rome office to send

Marines in to retrieve it,Embassy Marines!

Oh, for crying out loud.

This girl is not an industrial spy,

She's not a blackmailer...

And she's certainly not a terrorist.

She's just doing

these jerks a favour.

- How long?

- I don't know.

It'd probably be a good idea if the

Italian police didn't see the manuals.

Phil,we're not corporate security.

Just do me a favour and cross-Feed

her coordinates to John real time.

Sure.

- Miss Savelli?

- Si.

- Speak English?

- Yes, I do.

No news.

Come say goodbye

before you leave, Jim.

I'll be sleeping here again tonight.

That's not healthy.

Well, apparently I have a lot of work

to catch up on tomorrow.

Yeah, yeah.

- Are you sure we are missing a manual?

- Yes, sir, the fourth one.

Okay, Bryden. It's your show.

Let's do this.

- I really fancy leaving...

- I'll call you back in a minute.

Francesca.

- Where did you put the fourth manual?

- I really don't know.

Who is Sameer Ben Saffar?

Sameer is a buyer.

He is Syrian,He buys sculptures

from the art gallery I work for.

And why did you not return

the briefcase immediately?

I had other stuff to do.

What can you tell us about

the photo copies you made.

- What? When?

- Just answer the question, please.

Who is your contact

at the French Embassy?

We know you made copies...

And sent them to the French

Embassy via local courier.

- What's going on?

- I'm sorry, this is a private.

- It's okay. He's blue.

- Woman took something from the case,jim.

- No, she didn't.

- That's right, I didn't!

- We know that, Miss Francesca.

- She can hear us?

- So are we finished?

- Yes, we are.

- Well, turn the damn speakers off.

- No dont.

- They're just asking her some questions.

Who,Who's asking? Who are these?

That's Frank Vaughan and our fantastic

logistical support team.

- Is that her house?

- She let them in,Jim it's okay.

No, I think they should

leave there right now.

- Mr Wagley, is it?

- Yes.

As you yourself demonstrated,

Tumbleweed is still very fragile.

You have no threat from Ms Francesca,

I can guarantee you.

She made copies this afternoon,

that was in your report.

- Those were invitations

to an art show. - So you say.

But our company is targeted for

industrial espionage every month...

So I think we know

when we're under attack.

Listen to me, your company and your

product are not under attack.

At least of all from her,

And I'm going to

tell you what happened.

No,no I tell you something.

You don't have the right to act

on our intelligence product...

- That's like revealing a source.

- This was an informal interrogation.

- Jim, why do you even?

- Why do I what?

I do, that's all,Okay.

Ask your men to leave, Mr Ashe.

Fine,my bad.

- Vaughan, discontinue Q,A.

- Yes,sir.

- Okay, Mr Wagley?

- Yes. Thanks.

Actually, Vaughan, put her on,

would you? - Roger.

- Ms Savelli?

- Hello? - Hi.

Listen,I just wanted to say

I'm sorry for all the trouble.

My boys are gonna scoot off now.

And you have been really,really helpful.

- Okay. So it's finished.

- Once again I'm sorry.

- Ellison, do you have a brochure.- yeah-

- Please, give one to Miss Savelli.

- Sure.

So miss,should you or anyone in

your family ever need a hearing aid...

just call us and ask for Anthony.

Sure, yeah.

- Okay.

- Bye bye.

- Thanks, Phil.

- You bet.

Yeah,see you.

What f***ing company?

What company?I want a name!

A name! Who did you talk to?

A name! Tumbleweed!

What f***ing company

wanted Tumbleweed?

Who's the guy inside our company?

Wendell Cranshaw! There's a name!

Who is he?

I want a name!

I want you to talk now!Now!Now!

Louis,patch me through to Rome.

What's the f***ing name

of the company?

What's to stop her pressing for her

government to raise a shitstorm?

They're about to take care of that.

What f***ing company wanted

Tumbleweed?Where's the fourth manual,

The one you copied?

I'm talking to you!Don't drift away!

I want you to talk now! Now!

Look. Speakto me now,

you f***ing wop c*nt!

This is getting us nowhere.

I don't think she knows

anything either, sir.

Well, she does now, doesn't she?

Maybe there are other options

we should be considering.

But can you do the thing, Vaughan?

- I can do it. I just wanted

to be clear on this. - We're clear.

- This would be permanent, Mr Ashe.

- I get that.

She would never talk or walk. Ever.

Well,Jump up and bite that frisbee, Frank,

I thought that was the whole f***ing point!

Okay,Thank you.

You can't get good help

these days. Can you, Mike?

- John.

- Right.

Carabinieri! Open the door!

- Hide the kit, Vaughan!

- Be cool!

It might be wise to cut

the Satlink about now.

- What are the police doing there?

- I called them.

- I thought this link was secure.

- I used Tumbleweed.

- You did what?

- I'm asking you...

For a signed agreement

as to the safety of this girl.

Mr Wagley...

I would feel compelled.

To expose your system.- Right.

Which you must understand

would make it unsellable.

Good luck.

You're never going near

my system again, Mr Wagley.

Why can't you relax?

It's not like we wanna kill anyone!

They had a lobotomy kit in there!

Chemical lobotomy you

all agree is non-Lethal.

This is a citizen, an allied

citizen, a civilian!

Spy,Yes lndustrial espionage

does carry 5 to 10.

You are way out of your

depth here Mister.

Please, Mr Wagley,

this is national security. - Nat!

We are National Security!

You are a company!

And we must protect our sale,

- And ourselves and you from litigation.

- But this girl is no threat.

Yeah, well, we're just gonna have

to agree to disagree on that one.

Now, while I appreciate

Mr Wagley's seal...

He seems to be having

some allegiance issues.

Jim's allegiance

is not in question.

Whatever. The point is it be really nice

if he stopped popping up all the time.

Im going to report you.

- Are you hearing me, Phil?

Or do I need to say it on the phone.

- So you can snoop it?

- Mr Ashe.

His clearance, Gone Now.

John, call security.

Even assuming

that she was acting alone..

We need to know what

that girl did and why

What we do not need

is a lawsuit.

And we especially

do not need this guy

Commendring our proto-Type

by making silly treaths

Okay, Phil,Because if the girl

blows the system,i mean..

Even if she does so by accident!

You aren't going to buy it,are you?

And that guy over there,he is gonna have

to call my bosses. And then guess what?

Those are my guys in Rome,

I handpicked them.
