The Recruit Page #5

even your voice

create vibrations

that a sophisticated laser

pointer in the building

-can read and translate.

I'll tell you, this card won't

get you into the good stuff,

but that little logo

definitely gets you laid.

Republican girls -- hot.

Here we go. This is you.

The manual's

pretty self-explanatory.

Log in as much data as you can

without getting carpal tunnel.

Any questions, I'm 1229.

Thank you.

Thank you.

I'll see you over there.

James.

Layla. Hey.

What ar--

oh, you're here?

Yep. Data entry.

Not exactly

what I'd imagined, but...

After you left...

we missed you at the farm.

Yeah.

Look, I'm late, so...

Oh, right. Okay.

It's good to see you.

Yeah. You too.

Take care.

-Hi, Frank.

-Hey, how's it going?

Good.

Take care.

-Thanks. See you tomorrow.

-Good night.

Hey, Joey. Cappuccino.

Sure.

James.

Hi.

Hey. Hey.

I'm not stalking you, I swear.

I come here all the time.

How you doing?

Good. You mind?

No, of course not.

Thanks.

Sure.

What are you reading?

-Good?

-Weird.

WOMAN:
Here you go.

Thanks.

So...

Hmm?

I'm in Science and Tech.

-Science and Tech?

-Yeah.

Not in the field?

The field is what you said

you always wanted.

Yeah, well...

found out it wasn't.

It's good to see you.

You too.

JAMES:

So, where you living?

LAYLA:
The company found me

an apartment in Georgetown.

What about you?

JAMES:

Uh, I'm over in Adams Morgan.

LAYLA:
When did you move down

from Boston?

JAMES:
A week ago.

I drove down.

Thanks.

You're welcome.

See you soon.

Yeah. You want a ride?

-Nah, I got my truck.

-Okay.

-All right. See you.

-Good night.

Good night.

BURKE:
Okay,

you re-established contact.

Now get into her office,

see if she's accessed

the program.

If she's got lce 9,

what's she doing with it?

She can't copy it.

Langley computers

don't have disk drives

for exactly this reason,

and she can't print it out.

There are no printers.

Company policy.

D.S. & T. is a secure area.

You're gonna need clearance.

I'll handle that.

Thank you, sir.

-Morning.

-Good morning.

James...a bunch of us are going

over to Senor Pepe's.

-Margarita Monday.

-Republican interns, huh?

Vaminos, muchachos,

Hi, this is Layla Moore.

I'm in a meeting until 4:30.

You can call me then or leave me

a message after the t--

-Hello.

-Hi.

Mike? Black, two sugars.

Right?

Thanks.

Hey.

-Oh, Sharon...

-Yeah?

I still haven't gotten

those files I asked about.

It's all right.

I'll look for them.

-How was the date?

-lt was great.

I just don't know where to go,

and -- I don't know...

You know, there's

this ltalian restaurant

down in Georgetown,

and it's authentic.

-Hi.

-Hey.

You dropped these in my car.

Must've just slipped

out of your hand.

Nah.

I dropped them on purpose.

You trying to manipulate me?

Maybe.

It's working.

-Frank.

-Hey.

-Good night, Layla.

-Good night.

Layla. Wait up.

Here you go.

Allow me, madame.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Where's your car?

Red pickup, over there.

Oh, nice. New?

Newish.

This your little baby?

-Yeah.

-All right.

-Night.

-See you tomorrow.

Hey, James?

Yeah?

I want to show you something.

That camera takes 30 seconds

to scan the room.

That one takes another

So if you stand right here,

you're ready to waltz

one step,

you could have 40 seconds

of complete privacy

where the cameras

won't see you.

Okay.

Closer.

Here?

There.

Now we're completely private.

What were you thinking about

when you figured this out?

You.

We have 20 more seconds.

That's not enough time.

Layla?

Sorry it's so early,

but, uh...

I don't sleep.

Piss like a racehorse --

every two hours.

Impossible.

What do you got?

You were right about Layla.

Some of the lce program

is on her home computer,

but it's not all there yet.

She's taking it out in pieces

and putting it back together.

How's she getting it out of the

building? That's the question.

And more importantly,

who's she giving it to?

I want you to take this.

Open it somewhere later.

You know, no matter

how sure we are...

about a person...

no matter how close or friendly

you think they are --

I know.

I believe Layla's a traitor.

Yeah.

It's just...

It's ugly.

This is an ugly business...

you know?

Can't pay us enough

for this kind of stuff,

and they don't.

The truth is,

at the end of the day,

it's what we do.

It's a job.

It's not who we are.

We decide who we are.

All right!

Morning...sleepyhead.

Sure, come right in.

Usually when a man ditches me

in the middle of the night,

he doesn't call the next day.

Imagine my surprise when

you're banging down the door.

Sorry. I couldn't sleep,

so I went to the gym.

Breakfast?

Yeah, sure.

I'm starving.

Hey, how about that breakfast

you promised me?

Huh?

Cheese eggs --

my dad's specialty.

He called 'em heart stoppers,

the breakfast of champions.

-Good?

-Mm-hmm.

So, do you still think

about it?

The farm, I mean.

I wanted Burke to stop.

I told him to stop.

Nope. Not about that.

I mean the training.

Do you think it changes you?

Learning to lie, deceive.

Yeah, sure.

I mean, I definitely think

about things differently now.

I mean, every person I meet

is a possible mark.

Sure.

I got an idea.

Why don't we do

stupid tourist things today?

Come on, we can go and sit

on Lincoln's knee,

Iook at

John Dillinger's penis.

I swear to God,

it's in the Smithsonian,

along with other weird Americana

like the Fonz's jacket.

What do you say?

I got to work.

Work? Wrong answer. What are you

gonna do on Saturday?

It's your taxpayers' dollars

in action, my friend.

You sure you got to go

to work?

Yeah.

I'll see you tonight, right?

Yeah.

See you later.

Bye.

Gorgeous dog.

Hey, fella.

How you doing?

-So nice to meet you.

-She's a sweetheart.

-She's pretty.

-Thank you very much.

-See you.

-Have a good day.

MAN:
You can't park here.

WOMAN:
The "A" train to

St. Petersburg is now boarding.

Oh. Hey!

Hey!

Stop! Freeze!

Freeze!

Zack.

Zack.

Hey, you! Stop!

Stop!

Suspect's Caucasian and 5'10",

wearing green jacket.

Ooh!

MAN:
The delayed "A" train

from St. Petersburg

will be arriving

in half an hour.

The "A" train from

St. Petersburg will be arriving

in half an hour.

-Hey!

-Sorry.

...will be boarding

in 15 minutes at Gate "D."

MAN:

No sign of the suspect yet.

Green jacket, male, Caucasian.

-Affirmative, 21.

-5'10", brown hair.

WOMAN:
This is

the Shady Grove Red Line.

Next stop...

Burke here.

JAMES:

Zack's dead.

I killed him.

Where are you?

I killed him.

He -- he was working

with Layla.

Oh, Jesus.

James, just tell me

what happened, now.

Uh, she met him.

I saw them.

Zack attacked me.

I killed him.

Well, I have to

pull you out, then.

I have to get somebody else

on this thing.

Look, let me do it.

This is what I trained for.

You said so yourself.

She's probably going back

to Langley to finish the job,

and if she's not,

I'll intercept her.

I'll get the material,
