True Lies (2023) s01e02 Episode Script
Public Secrets
1
I'm Harry Tasker,
husband, dad, computer salesman,
and for 17 years the most
important person in my life
didn't know I was also something else.
Omega Sector's top spy.
I'm Helen Tasker,
wife, mom and professor.
After an unfortunate incident
where I found out our
whole life was a lie,
now I'm also a spy.
Honey, all those things are true.
- They're just, you know
- What?
True lies.
Gib, maybe we should call it.
I don't know, Harry.
Training isn't supposed to be easy.
Come on, Helen, you can do it.
Is she tapping out?
I think she's tapping out.
You know what, training's a journey,
not a destination.
Maybe we should call it.
Uh, Luther,
I think that's enough choking for today.
Okay, just to be clear,
I was just doing exactly what it
says to do in the training manual.
Yeah, I know.
I read the training manual.
Honey, are you okay?
-
- I guess that's a no.
Why do I have to go to this meeting?
Is it because of the training?
Because that was a disaster.
Oh, it wasn't that bad.
Come on, Harry.
I sounded like a cat with a hairball.
Yeah. Just remember,
in the real world, you can't tap out.
- You do anything you can to win a fight.
- Yeah.
All right?
Go for their eyes if you have to.
The eyes? Ugh.
It's kind of how we do
things in Omega Sector.
Good morning, everyone.
Shall we get started?
Hey, Trilby, I just want to say
if this is about Helen's training,
- she did
- This isn't about Helen's training.
This is about her first mission.
What? My first
I'm sorry, I thought
I thought the entire plan
was that we were gonna go slowly.
He almost killed me.
This is slow.
Fast would be we'd send
you to North Korea
with a pocketknife
and a list of targets.
Is that a joke? That's a joke, right?
All eyes on screen, please.
Omega Sector has determined
that the terrorist
International Liberation Front
is planning to launch a genetically
engineered plague in western Europe.
Mission was referred to Omega Sector,
which has identified a cryptographer
who can decode the relevant files.
Your mission:
find the cryptographer,
decode the files, locate weapons,
and stop the attack.
Who's the cryptographer?
It's an old, uh,
contact of yours, Harry.
Based in Madrid.
Ximena Diaz.
Oh. Good.
Yeah, good. She's really good.
Um, huh. Okay.
Are you sure she's the only one?
Yes, and that's the problem.
The ILF knows she's the only one
who can decode it and stop the attack.
They also know that
the CIA's been tracking her.
We have to get to her before they do.
What's our cover?
That's where Helen comes in.
No.
Cover identity.
The team will travel
to Madrid undercover
as representatives of
Telonyx Computer Systems,
where they will be selling computers
at an academic conference.
Omega Sector trainee Helen Tasker
will be attending under her cover
as a linguistics professor
at Shoreton University.
La Conferencia Linguüística?
That's like the Coachella
of linguistics conferences.
Isn't that exciting?
You leave in 24 hours. Good luck.
Hey, guys, I know there's
been a lot of changes lately,
with mom's new job at Shoreton,
but I guess this conference
is kind of a big deal.
Kind of? Yeah.
No, it's a huge deal.
Well, there you go.
It's bigger than I thought.
Anyway, we're just gonna
be gone for a few days.
Sounds good.
If it's for mom's job,
why are you both going?
Well
uni-universities need computers.
Yeah, but you've been a professor for,
like, a million years.
Big school, Jake.
Huge opportunities for computer sales.
Okay, but, like, it's just happening
I think it's great that you guys
are going together.
Right? It'll be so romantic.
Dana.
We'll be fine.
I swear, when I
found out you were a spy,
I was like, "Oh, finally,
everything makes sense," you know?
17 years into marriage, we can
finally be honest with each other.
And we are. I mean
- it's better, right?
- No. I mean, yes.
Between us, yes. We can be
honest with each other,
but now, you know, now I feel
like I'm lying to everybody else.
Like this conference. It's special.
I've always dreamed of
going to this thing, but not,
you know, not like this.
Honey, it's just how these things work.
This is the perfect cover ID.
And Omega's giving us
excuses to be in foreign countries.
I know, but now I'm the excuse.
I'm the lie. Everything's a lie.
The night stand is a gun safe,
there's a signal jammer in the toaster.
The bathroom is some
- What is the bathroom?
- A safe room, but no one knows.
The bathroom is a safe room.
Bathroom is a lie.
Honey, I think it's healthier
if you don't think about it as lying.
It's just leaving out details.
I know, but I'm not good at it.
I'm bad. I almost broke tonight.
With Jake, you know,
looking at his little eyes.
And that's a 14-year-old
just asking me questions
- while I'm eating mashed potatoes.
- Honey. Honey, look.
- We're protecting people.
- Mm-hmm.
We're doing something important here.
- Focus on that.
- Mm.
I know.
So, who's this person
that you're meeting in Madrid?
Oh, just, you know, some cryptographer.
Mm-hmm.
Hey, bud.
- Ready to go?
- Almost.
You know, Helen's got an entire bag
and half my bag.
Speaking of Helen,
you, uh, get a chance to talk to her
about the whole Ximena situation?
- Shut up!
- Whoa.
- She's downstairs.
- Okay, guess that's a no.
Come on, Harry, you can't be
keeping secrets at this point.
Hey, man.
There is no secret about Ximena.
Then why are we whispering?
Okay, look,
I didn't tell Helen about Ximena
because Ximena is need-to-know,
and Helen doesn't need to know.
You see,
the thing about that is, Harry,
I happened to pull Ximena's
dossier to prep for the meeting.
Ran across a recent pic.
You really gonna try to tell me
that Helen doesn't need to know
that this is the asset that
you've been working with?
"Worked with," past tense.
It's nothing.
I know your history, man.
It's may not be everything,
but it's not nothing.
That "almost nothing" was
before we were even together.
I can't tell her about Ximena. I can't.
Gib. Gib,
I just got out of the doghouse
for not telling her that I was
a spy for our entire marriage.
Helen's not even gonna meet Ximena.
It's not that big a deal.
Oh, it's not that big of a deal?
Look at that, here comes
Helen up the stairs,
so why don't I just open the door and
Hey. What is this?
Big spy meeting? Oh.
Big spy meeting. In the safe room.
No, no. Well, yeah, kind of.
We're just going over
the details of the trip.
- We should go.
- Yeah, yeah.
But this is the safe room?
Is it?
All right, mission review.
Team touches down in
Madrid at 0800 hours.
Harry will reach out to our contact,
Ximena Diaz, via the dark web.
She will send an address
using a one-time code key
an hour before the meeting.
Until then, we establish our cover
selling computers at the
academic conference.
While Helen does
whatever linguistic professors
do at a conference.
Mom, there's no "update".
Jake's playing video games, and I'm, uh,
I'm making popcorn. Okay? That's all.
Okay. Well, you're
obviously doing something,
so I want to know what you
guys are getting into tonight.
Look, go nerd out with
your professor friends.
I have to go, okay?
My, uh, my popcorn is burning.
Okay, bye.
Well, something's up.
She's using her sneaky voice.
What? She sounds fine.
No, she sounds like
she's hiding something.
Why, because she's not
telling us everything?
Helen, when you were a kid,
did you tell your parents everything?
Uh, no. That's why I'm worried.
When we were in Paris,
you had Omega Sector monitor the house.
Can they tell us what she's doing?
Well, technically.
I did ask Mrs. Myers
to spy on Dana once,
and it's a bad idea.
What do you mean, bad idea?
She's burning popcorn right now.
It could be dangerous.
Helen, what's dangerous
is where we are,
in Madrid.
We're here to stop a terrorist attack.
- Okay, listen. I was in Lebanon once.
- Uh-huh.
- And I was worried Dana was vaping
- She's vaping?
No, no. She just tried it once.
But I was a mess the whole time.
I was always wondering
if I should do something,
and in the end, she stopped anyway.
Okay, well, what if she hadn't, Harry?
You know? It goes vapes
crack cocaine, meth.
I-I'm just trying to make sure
that our kids are safe, okay?
Is that too much to ask?
Identify.
Harry Tasker requesting
security protocol Orange.
Orange? You sure?
Well, Helen is, so
Copy that.
Initiating protocol.
Thanks, Mrs. Myers.
Not every day someone
gets an endowed professorship
at Shoreton University
from a graduate thesis.
You are the talk of the conference.
Thank you. It's a great opportunity.
Speaking of great opportunities,
Telonyx Solutions is offering
ten percent off Internet routers.
And if you'd like a demo,
we can stop by your hotel room later.
Uh thanks.
Uh, I'll keep it in mind.
That is one of the most
important linguists in the world.
Do you really need to sell him routers?
- We are trying to maintain our cover ID.
- Yeah?
Did Ximena make contact yet?
No, nothing yet.
But, speaking of Ximena
Helen?
Is that you?
Harold? Harold, oh, my gosh!
- It's so good to see you.
- Wow.
Harold, this is my husband, Harry.Oh.
And this is his work colleague Gib.
Hey, what's up, man?
Yeah, so, I got to take this.
Harold and I went to Columbia together,
where he was the superstar.
Oh, hardly.
You were the superstar.
The only reason I passed syntactic
theory is because I was living with you.
Oh, you lived together?
Yeah, you remember I told you
about my boyfriend from
grad school, Harry.
So, I hear you're still at Harvard?
- Mm-hmm.
- And did I hear
- that you also got a genius grant?
- Well, as they say,
"Pole pole"
Yeah.
- "Ndio mwendo."
- Aw, yes!
"Ndio mwendo."
So great. Amazing.
Pole pole ndio mwendo.
Oh.
Harry, um, so you in academia too?
Oh, no, no. I'm in computer sales.
Amazing.
Yeah.
Uh, it's so great to meet you.
- Really.
- Thanks.
And, uh, I have a talk to get to.
- Oh, yeah.
- But I'll see you around?
- Yes, for sure.
- Okay, great.
So good to see you.
Oh, he's wonderful.
So that's your ex-boyfriend?
Yes, Harold. He's great.
I haven't seen him in forever.
Oh, funny, 'cause you
knew he went to Harvard,
you knew that he won the genius grant.
And it's so adorable you two have
your own little secret language.
Yeah. It's Swahili, Harry.
Literally millions of people speak it.
I don't know, just think
it's kind of weird
that you never mentioned
that we have the same name.
I don't tell you everything
about all of my exes.
Well, I know that your
junior year boyfriend
was named Curtis and that he
was allergic to Sharpies.
Then you dated Rick
and he had a mole that
looked like a VW Bug.
Uh-huh. I dated Harold
a very long time ago.
You don't have to be threatened.
- Threatened?
- Yeah.
Helen, I am so not threatened.
I just don't understand why you
never mentioned him before.
I don't know, Harry. You know?
You kind of get a little weird
when you think someone
is smarter than you,
so I just usually just leave it alone.
Oh! You think he's smarter than I am?
I didn't say This is the weird
- this is the weirdness.
- Yeah.
Hey. Sorry, am I interrupting?
That was Ximena with the code.
We got to go. Now.
All right, Harry.
Luther and Maria are in place.
You good in there, man?
In position. So far, so good.
Nah, I mean, what was
up with you and Helen
back at the conference?
No, it's fine.
Helen just, uh, ran into an ex.
You don't say?
Kind of sounds like the perfect time
to bring up the whole Ximena situation.
There is no Ximena situation.
Which one is Helen's ex?
Was it the tall guy? He was hot.
Who broke up with who?
That doesn't matter, guys.
Aren't you supposed to
be doing surveillance?
I'm trying to focus on the mission here.
- Could you just
- Harry,
spotted Ximena.
Incoming to your position.
Harry. Querido.
Thank you for coming.
Gracias.
So tell me, what is so
urgent that I get a visit?
- Ximena, you're in a lot of danger.
- Ay, Harry, you worry too much.
All these years, you swore
the world was about to end,
and yet here we are
eating oysters.
Aw
Está bien.
Ximena, look, this is different.
- Have you heard of the ILF?
- Oh, those idiots
who think that if they blow up the world
anyone that's left is
gonna put them in charge?
What about them?
Those idiots are planning
a high-tech terror attack
with bioweapons planted
in a dozen countries.
The CIA got into their system,
but it's encrypted.
So you just need to crack it?
Of course, Harry. For you.
The thing is, the ILF knows the
CIA has been following you,
which means they know you're
the only one standing in their way.
You think they'll come after me?
Not if we can take 'em out first.
These are all the details of the
encryption that we need you to break.
Harry.
We got a problem.
Four guys, incoming. Looks like ILF.
How did they track her?
I-I don't know,
but you got to scramble now.
- Move!
- It's too late. They found you.
Harry, do you need us to come in there?
Negative. There's too many civilians.
I can't afford a firefight.
No back door? What, Madrid
- doesn't have fire codes?
- Come on.
Do we have to fight our way out?
No, it's too risky. I got an idea.
Go, crack the encryption.
Bring me the plans tomorrow.
1400 hours, the corner
of Flores and Carretas.
I'll be there.
Adios.
Sorry about this.
So, I poked around and got some info
on our friend from last night.
Grozdan Ivanov. Bulgarian.
Convicted of war crimes.
Recruited by the
Liberation Front in '16.
Oh, oh, and his buddies.
Almost as bad.
I brought Helen in just in
case they show up to the hotel.
- Okay.
- Do we know that
- Ximena made it out?
- Yeah, she's good.
She's gonna be at the meeting.
And what about this encryption
expert shouldn't I see her, too,
just in case?
Well, I mean, these covert assets
They get weird when you photograph them,
so I don't even think
we have pictures of her.
Isn't that right?
- Harry.
- Yeah?
It seems like Dana's not the only one
using her sneaky voice.
Maybe I should see some of
the surveillance from last night.
- Right?
- Harry?
For recognition purposes?
- Sure, fine. Show her.
- Okay.
Okay.
Last night's op coming up.
Helen, it was nothing.
It wa-it was
it was purely professional.
Ah. Yeah.
So, it was just professional oysters
and professional champagne.
Professional hip dip.
I saw the hip grab.
Let's just look at some
of your old missions.
A romantic bistro,
a darkened bar. Oh, yes.
Look, a nice little stroll
down the Seine in Paris.
Honey, our meetings
have to look personal.
We can't show up in spy
trench coats and sunglasses.
Okay, well, there's a middle
ground between trench coats
and spaghetti strap evening gowns.
I wanted to tell you
so bad over the years,
but it was literally illegal for me
- to say anything.
- Mm.
Well, it's not like you
told me everything, either.
I
The security line.
It could be an emergency with the kids.
Harry Tasker.
Surveillance update.
Fox Cub One observed purchasing
a pink tube top.
Communications intercepted
about a gathering at the home
of a Barry Weems, alias Zoner.
Age 18, arrested
for possession of a water pipe,
commonly known as a bong,
age 16. Charges dismissed.
See? This is why I wanted to know.
This is why I didn't want to know.
How am I supposed to run an operation
when all I can think about are
the words that rhyme with Zoner?
Har
Are we calling her?
Are we stopping this?
If we call her she'll
know we're spying on her.
Continue surveillance or not?
Honey, come Are you
Continue surveillance. Over and out.
All right, we got to go
to the meeting. Let's go.
Remember, you're maintaining our cover,
so when you go to the conference,
do what you do best. Mingle, say hi,
smile with that
beautiful smile of yours,
mention me, mention the team,
say we're selling computers.
Okay, and what are you gonna be doing?
We got to go see Ximena.
Hopefully she decoded
the ILF's encryption by now.
- Oh.
- Helen!
Great news. Hey, Harry.
Hey, Harold.
I got you a guest lecture
at my department at Harvard.
Oh. That-that's amazing. Thank you.
- Really? Wow.
- Yeah.
My department chair's at the bar.
We can discuss the details,
have a glass of champagne to celebrate?
Oh, yes.
Who wouldn't love a
professional glass of champagne?
- You know about those.
- Very funny.
Enjoy your meeting, honey.
Thank you, honey.
Harry.
I don't want to say I told you so
about the whole situation with Ximena,
but, wow, did I tell you so.
Thanks, man. I really appreciate that.
With everything going on, I just
could use some support.
Harry, I am on your side, dude,
'cause Harold is a smoke show,
and he's a genius,
and-and they lived together,
so that is way worse
than having dinner with an asset.
Great. I don't know what you're trying
to do to me,
but that's not helping at all.
You should feel good, bro.
She could have settled
for a lot of other guys.
She settled for you.
Yeah, good one, Luther. Thanks.
Can we just focus on the,
uh, mission at hand here?
Right, mission.
All right, so here's the plan.
I'm gonna set up on a nearby street
out of sight. Harry, you're with me,
while Luther and Maria
position themselves
and cover the area from
a sniper position.
I'll run surveillance with the drone
while you go get the plans
and bring in Ximena for exfiltration.
And there she is.
Look at that.
You know, it's like she's
immune to helmet hair.
All right, Harry, you're up.
Get out of here.
Hold up, hold up, hold up.
Picking up some radio signals.
Uh, I think I can hack in.
Foreign chatter.
What is it?
Sounds like a tactical team.
I think someone may be following Ximena.
Scratch that.
Someone is definitely following Ximena.
Guys, cover her.
Harry! Harry, where you going?
We can't stop it. It's armored.
Ximena turned down a side street.
Doubling back on Avenida Monterrey.
Perfect. I can cut them off.
Uh, not perfect.
What are you gonna do
when you get there?
Trust me, Gib, I've got an idea.
How do you say "chicken" in Bulgarian?
Well, you don't say "chicken" in
You can't play chicken with
an armored SUV, Harry.
Well, I'm gonna try. Wish me luck.
I wish you would not do this.
Whoa!
- Are you okay?
- I'm fine.
- Just a little road rash.
- Harry. You could have died.
I still can't believe
that you wedged yourself
under an armored SUV to save
to save Ximena.
Honey, I actually did that
to save the entire operation.
Hopefully, Ximena will call soon.
Yes, we would not want to
lose touch with Ximena.
- For the mission.
- For the mission.
- For the mission, honey.
- For the mission.
She has information we need
to stop bombs from going off
in a dozen countries.
Omega Security.
Helen Tasker.
Update on Fox Cub One.
Subject about to leave
for Zoner's party.
Is she wearing the tube top?
Can I get a read on
the approximate tightness, please?
Mm
Affirmative on the tube top,
appears to be within normal
tightness parameters.
The cookies are in the jar.
Hang on.
Fox Cub One is apparently getting a ride
with the driver of a muscle car,
yellow, black stripe.
Male, approximately 17 years old,
like a Zack Morris vibe?
Do we have any intel
on this muscle car driver?
Uh, an ID? A GPA?
Helen, we got a problem.
Yeah, our daughter is getting
into a yellow muscle car.
Gib, what's going on? What's wrong?
Uh, you know how yesterday,
I cracked into the ILF's comms systems
- with an RTL-SDR?
- Yeah.
Well, I placed an electronic
geo tracker on them, and
we found them, and they're here.
Here? How?
I have no idea.
All I know is that
there's a team of guys
talking Bulgarian about
going after a Harry,
and they're in the hotel.
- What am I gonna do with this?
- Use it.
Harry, I was grading papers,
I didn't even finish weapons training.
Well, you're about to
finish weapons training.
Just point it at
the bad guys and shoot.
Harry, you guys ready?
Ready as we can be, Gib.
Harry, they're coming.
I can't see them, but I can hear them.
H-Harry? Helen?
Um
yeah?
What's going on, Gib? They're not here.
Whose hotel room
did these guys just break into, then?
Please, my name is Harold Winslow!
I'm a linguist here for a conference!
I'm a MacArthur Fellow. Uh
Um, guys?
I think the International
Liberation Front
just abducted Helen's ex-boyfriend.
What? Why?
I don't kno
Harry, meet me
at the tac van. Now.
Well, looks like they stopped.
We have any idea where we're going?
The GPS is following
their radio signals.
Just stay on 'em.
- Gib, how did this happen?
- Uh, well,
the Bulgarian translation's iffy,
but basically,
the ILF was listening in
on Ximena's cell phone somehow.
That's how they've been finding her.
Yep. And then,
when she called the hotel,
they were listening.
So she calls, asks for Harry,
they accidentally send
her to Harold's room,
she leaves a message,
the ILF guys come,
bust in the doors looking for you.
What's the message?
It's a date.
October 19, 2005.
We met at a safe house on that date.
Okay. Okay.
Harry, we got to get
somebody over there
to get the location of those
bioweapons from Ximena.
Gib, we're going up
against a terrorist team
armed with machine guns.
We can't spare anyone.
Wasn't thinking one of us.
- No.
- Yes.
- No. No.
- Yes.
- No!
- Listen to me.
Sending Helen is the safest option.
- She can't
- Yes.
The clock's ticking on
this terrorist attack.
Do you really want
thousands of people to die
because you're uncomfortable
with your wife
speaking to your ex?
- Harry? Are you okay?
- Yeah, I'm fine.
All right. Did you save Harold?
Uh, well, we're working on that.
Listen,
Helen, um, we need you to do something.
Wh I-I My hands are
still shaking. What do
I-I know. Um,
we need you to go to a safe house.
It's near the hotel,
and we need you to get
the ILF's decoded plans.
It's a safe house where I met Ximena.
- Wouldn't she be expecting you?
- Honey,
there-there's really no other way.
Okay. Where am I going?
A romantic cafe? Lingerie
- store dressing room?
- Very funny.
I'm kidding. I ju
Give me the address.
2626 Calle de Marta.
She's hiding, so she may not answer.
Okay, all right.
I'm gonna bring the, uh,
door unlocker thingy.
What is it called?
"Unlocker thingy's" fine. Be safe.
Okay, bringing it to the
Safe houses look a lot
like love nests, I guess.
Hello?
Ximena?
No! I'm not
Wait, I'm a friend! I'm a friend!
Wait! I'm Omega Sector!
Where's Harry?
What did you do with him?
He sent me here. I'm his wife.
I know all about you.
You like oysters and champagne
and you look very lovely
in a thigh-slit dress.
All right, any idea
what's going on in there?
I'm working on it.
Just got to get eyes on the situation.
Watch this.
Not a lot of cover for an approach.
Yeah, but we got skylights right there.
Yeah, but we're sitting ducks
till we hit the ground.
Not if I turned out the lights.
Let's be careful in there.
I don't want to die saving
Helen's ex-boyfriend.
You got this message
from this woman Ximena at the hotel.
- Where is she?
- I-I don't
I don't know who you're talking about.
Then why?
Why she send you message, huh?
I don't know!
Liar.
No games.
Tell me where Ximena is.
Guys, we got to move fast or this
man's gonna have a serious limp.
We're in position. How's our cover?
Uh, I got an AI hacking
into the local power grid.
I think I can buy you about 30 seconds.
That enough?
It'll have to be.
You decoded the file?
We can find those bombs?
I just need to take care
of something first.
So, is your ear okay?
Feel like I might have
poked your brain a little.
It's fine. How's your throat?
It's fine. Yeah. No, it, uh
happens all the time.
I'm sorry I attacked you.
I thought you were an ILF assassin.
A An assassin?
So, um
that code that you had with Harry.
The date?
What was that all about?
I figured the ILF was listening,
so I left a message that
only he would understand.
Mm, mm, mm.
We were here the day I
fell in love with him.
So, this was kind of like a
like a your love nest?
No. No, no, no. There wasn't any time.
He kissed me, then he said he'd be back.
Okay.
So then, when he came back,
you both did
Broke my heart.
He said he'd met someone
in Puerta del Sol.
Was that you?
Yeah-yeah, that was me.
I always thought that Harry's new love
would be some American suburbs lady.
You know, she just
raise his kids, go to yoga class.
At least he left me for a spy.
Yeah, well
you know Harry.
Are you sure he said Puerta del Sol?
Self-destruct armed.
There are some things you never forget.
But sometimes
you have to let go of the past.
Yeah.
Oh! Oh
She left a message for you.
Your name is in it.
I d-I don't know why.
Th-There's millions of Harolds.
At the hotel, there was
Harry the computer salesman.
A computer salesman?
Who is this computer salesman?
I don't know him. I-I just met him.
Guys, heads up.
Lights coming up in three, two
Guns down, everyone!
Everyone, or I kill him!
Okay. Okay.
Calm down.
Gib, I need a distraction.
I only need one second.
Yeah, I'm on it.
Uh, I'll do my best. Um
Uh
Oh, okay. Okay, okay, okay, okay.
Harry, do you know who Ximena is?
Harold, stop. Hey, just let him go.
You don't want to hurt
anybody. You have us.
This is computer salesman?
Salesman who shot all of my men.
I'm sorry to do this to you, baby.
I love you.
We got him.
Guys? We all right in there?
Yeah, Gib. It's over.
Hey, Harry.
- Hey, Harold.
- Hey.
Just so you know,
I'm not threatened by you.
So, you're a spy?
That's classified. But yeah.
It's starting to make more sense
why Helen broke up with me.
She broke up with you?
Kind of seemed like you
guys had a lot in common.
Don't you speak 30 languages?
Well, she said she didn't need someone
who spoke 30 languages.
She needed someone who
spoke her language.
- Think I'm gonna throw up again.
- Do what you got to do, man.
Looks like Helen
finally made it, which is nice,
'cause I got to get this
hard drive back to Omega.
From Ximena, the ILF plans decoded.
Mission accomplished.
Also, I think it was
her last day on the job.
She blew up her entire system.
She said that if the
ILF can hack her phone,
she needs to find a new line of work.
It was really dramatic.
Wow.
- Harold.
- Helen.
You doing okay?
Eh, yeah, just a little
sick to my stomach.
Harry saved me.
So, you're a spy, too?
That's classified.
But kind of.
- Huh.
- Yeah, yeah.
Okay, you done? All right.
You know, we should probably
get you debriefed, buddy.
Come on, come with me.
They're gonna ask you
a lot of questions,
you're gonna have to
sign a bunch of stuff
that says you'll never
speak about this again.
But it's not all bad.
You get soft serve ice cream.
- Oh.
- All right?
- Sounds nice.
- Yeah.
I liked Harold. Smart guy.
Speaks a lot of languages.
Yes. There was one he didn't speak.
Yeah, he mentioned something about that.
Oh. Well, Ximena mentioned
a couple of things.
- Oh, you spoke to her?
- Yeah.
We had a rough start,
but then, you know, we warmed up.
She said that you
met someone
in Puerta del Sol?
Huh. Isn't that where I met you?
Yes, I think that it is.
Oh! Also, I invented a new move
to get out of a chokehold.
- Well, you got to show me.
- Yeah.
Oh!
That's what I did.
That's exactly what
That's my move.
You're becoming quite
the spy, Helen Tasker.
So how'd you guys
do while we were gone?
Fine.
How was, um, wherever you were?
So great.
Your mom was the star of the conference.
She's guest lecturing at Harvard.
Cool.
So, what'd you guys get into?
You know, just hung out with friends.
I'll get it.
Hey, kitty cat.
Mom, Dad, Mrs. Myers is here.
It's good seeing you, sweetheart.
- You, too, Mrs. Myers.
- All right. You take care, now.
- I'll see you soon, all right?
- All right.
- Hi. Yay.
- Thank you, Mrs. Myers.
Hope you had a good trip.
Brought you cookies
- and a surveillance file.
- Okay.
So photos?
- Of Dana and the muscle car boy?
- Yes, dear.
Is there anything on there
that we need to know about?
Hmm. I would say no.
But if you're wondering
if there's anything that would
make you uncomfortable?
Definitely.
But enjoy the cookies.
So, we should probably
give Dana her privacy,
you know? Right?
It's like Mrs. Myers said
There are some things
we don't need to know.
I'm so glad we're on the same page.
Me too.
I'm Harry Tasker,
husband, dad, computer salesman,
and for 17 years the most
important person in my life
didn't know I was also something else.
Omega Sector's top spy.
I'm Helen Tasker,
wife, mom and professor.
After an unfortunate incident
where I found out our
whole life was a lie,
now I'm also a spy.
Honey, all those things are true.
- They're just, you know
- What?
True lies.
Gib, maybe we should call it.
I don't know, Harry.
Training isn't supposed to be easy.
Come on, Helen, you can do it.
Is she tapping out?
I think she's tapping out.
You know what, training's a journey,
not a destination.
Maybe we should call it.
Uh, Luther,
I think that's enough choking for today.
Okay, just to be clear,
I was just doing exactly what it
says to do in the training manual.
Yeah, I know.
I read the training manual.
Honey, are you okay?
-
- I guess that's a no.
Why do I have to go to this meeting?
Is it because of the training?
Because that was a disaster.
Oh, it wasn't that bad.
Come on, Harry.
I sounded like a cat with a hairball.
Yeah. Just remember,
in the real world, you can't tap out.
- You do anything you can to win a fight.
- Yeah.
All right?
Go for their eyes if you have to.
The eyes? Ugh.
It's kind of how we do
things in Omega Sector.
Good morning, everyone.
Shall we get started?
Hey, Trilby, I just want to say
if this is about Helen's training,
- she did
- This isn't about Helen's training.
This is about her first mission.
What? My first
I'm sorry, I thought
I thought the entire plan
was that we were gonna go slowly.
He almost killed me.
This is slow.
Fast would be we'd send
you to North Korea
with a pocketknife
and a list of targets.
Is that a joke? That's a joke, right?
All eyes on screen, please.
Omega Sector has determined
that the terrorist
International Liberation Front
is planning to launch a genetically
engineered plague in western Europe.
Mission was referred to Omega Sector,
which has identified a cryptographer
who can decode the relevant files.
Your mission:
find the cryptographer,
decode the files, locate weapons,
and stop the attack.
Who's the cryptographer?
It's an old, uh,
contact of yours, Harry.
Based in Madrid.
Ximena Diaz.
Oh. Good.
Yeah, good. She's really good.
Um, huh. Okay.
Are you sure she's the only one?
Yes, and that's the problem.
The ILF knows she's the only one
who can decode it and stop the attack.
They also know that
the CIA's been tracking her.
We have to get to her before they do.
What's our cover?
That's where Helen comes in.
No.
Cover identity.
The team will travel
to Madrid undercover
as representatives of
Telonyx Computer Systems,
where they will be selling computers
at an academic conference.
Omega Sector trainee Helen Tasker
will be attending under her cover
as a linguistics professor
at Shoreton University.
La Conferencia Linguüística?
That's like the Coachella
of linguistics conferences.
Isn't that exciting?
You leave in 24 hours. Good luck.
Hey, guys, I know there's
been a lot of changes lately,
with mom's new job at Shoreton,
but I guess this conference
is kind of a big deal.
Kind of? Yeah.
No, it's a huge deal.
Well, there you go.
It's bigger than I thought.
Anyway, we're just gonna
be gone for a few days.
Sounds good.
If it's for mom's job,
why are you both going?
Well
uni-universities need computers.
Yeah, but you've been a professor for,
like, a million years.
Big school, Jake.
Huge opportunities for computer sales.
Okay, but, like, it's just happening
I think it's great that you guys
are going together.
Right? It'll be so romantic.
Dana.
We'll be fine.
I swear, when I
found out you were a spy,
I was like, "Oh, finally,
everything makes sense," you know?
17 years into marriage, we can
finally be honest with each other.
And we are. I mean
- it's better, right?
- No. I mean, yes.
Between us, yes. We can be
honest with each other,
but now, you know, now I feel
like I'm lying to everybody else.
Like this conference. It's special.
I've always dreamed of
going to this thing, but not,
you know, not like this.
Honey, it's just how these things work.
This is the perfect cover ID.
And Omega's giving us
excuses to be in foreign countries.
I know, but now I'm the excuse.
I'm the lie. Everything's a lie.
The night stand is a gun safe,
there's a signal jammer in the toaster.
The bathroom is some
- What is the bathroom?
- A safe room, but no one knows.
The bathroom is a safe room.
Bathroom is a lie.
Honey, I think it's healthier
if you don't think about it as lying.
It's just leaving out details.
I know, but I'm not good at it.
I'm bad. I almost broke tonight.
With Jake, you know,
looking at his little eyes.
And that's a 14-year-old
just asking me questions
- while I'm eating mashed potatoes.
- Honey. Honey, look.
- We're protecting people.
- Mm-hmm.
We're doing something important here.
- Focus on that.
- Mm.
I know.
So, who's this person
that you're meeting in Madrid?
Oh, just, you know, some cryptographer.
Mm-hmm.
Hey, bud.
- Ready to go?
- Almost.
You know, Helen's got an entire bag
and half my bag.
Speaking of Helen,
you, uh, get a chance to talk to her
about the whole Ximena situation?
- Shut up!
- Whoa.
- She's downstairs.
- Okay, guess that's a no.
Come on, Harry, you can't be
keeping secrets at this point.
Hey, man.
There is no secret about Ximena.
Then why are we whispering?
Okay, look,
I didn't tell Helen about Ximena
because Ximena is need-to-know,
and Helen doesn't need to know.
You see,
the thing about that is, Harry,
I happened to pull Ximena's
dossier to prep for the meeting.
Ran across a recent pic.
You really gonna try to tell me
that Helen doesn't need to know
that this is the asset that
you've been working with?
"Worked with," past tense.
It's nothing.
I know your history, man.
It's may not be everything,
but it's not nothing.
That "almost nothing" was
before we were even together.
I can't tell her about Ximena. I can't.
Gib. Gib,
I just got out of the doghouse
for not telling her that I was
a spy for our entire marriage.
Helen's not even gonna meet Ximena.
It's not that big a deal.
Oh, it's not that big of a deal?
Look at that, here comes
Helen up the stairs,
so why don't I just open the door and
Hey. What is this?
Big spy meeting? Oh.
Big spy meeting. In the safe room.
No, no. Well, yeah, kind of.
We're just going over
the details of the trip.
- We should go.
- Yeah, yeah.
But this is the safe room?
Is it?
All right, mission review.
Team touches down in
Madrid at 0800 hours.
Harry will reach out to our contact,
Ximena Diaz, via the dark web.
She will send an address
using a one-time code key
an hour before the meeting.
Until then, we establish our cover
selling computers at the
academic conference.
While Helen does
whatever linguistic professors
do at a conference.
Mom, there's no "update".
Jake's playing video games, and I'm, uh,
I'm making popcorn. Okay? That's all.
Okay. Well, you're
obviously doing something,
so I want to know what you
guys are getting into tonight.
Look, go nerd out with
your professor friends.
I have to go, okay?
My, uh, my popcorn is burning.
Okay, bye.
Well, something's up.
She's using her sneaky voice.
What? She sounds fine.
No, she sounds like
she's hiding something.
Why, because she's not
telling us everything?
Helen, when you were a kid,
did you tell your parents everything?
Uh, no. That's why I'm worried.
When we were in Paris,
you had Omega Sector monitor the house.
Can they tell us what she's doing?
Well, technically.
I did ask Mrs. Myers
to spy on Dana once,
and it's a bad idea.
What do you mean, bad idea?
She's burning popcorn right now.
It could be dangerous.
Helen, what's dangerous
is where we are,
in Madrid.
We're here to stop a terrorist attack.
- Okay, listen. I was in Lebanon once.
- Uh-huh.
- And I was worried Dana was vaping
- She's vaping?
No, no. She just tried it once.
But I was a mess the whole time.
I was always wondering
if I should do something,
and in the end, she stopped anyway.
Okay, well, what if she hadn't, Harry?
You know? It goes vapes
crack cocaine, meth.
I-I'm just trying to make sure
that our kids are safe, okay?
Is that too much to ask?
Identify.
Harry Tasker requesting
security protocol Orange.
Orange? You sure?
Well, Helen is, so
Copy that.
Initiating protocol.
Thanks, Mrs. Myers.
Not every day someone
gets an endowed professorship
at Shoreton University
from a graduate thesis.
You are the talk of the conference.
Thank you. It's a great opportunity.
Speaking of great opportunities,
Telonyx Solutions is offering
ten percent off Internet routers.
And if you'd like a demo,
we can stop by your hotel room later.
Uh thanks.
Uh, I'll keep it in mind.
That is one of the most
important linguists in the world.
Do you really need to sell him routers?
- We are trying to maintain our cover ID.
- Yeah?
Did Ximena make contact yet?
No, nothing yet.
But, speaking of Ximena
Helen?
Is that you?
Harold? Harold, oh, my gosh!
- It's so good to see you.
- Wow.
Harold, this is my husband, Harry.Oh.
And this is his work colleague Gib.
Hey, what's up, man?
Yeah, so, I got to take this.
Harold and I went to Columbia together,
where he was the superstar.
Oh, hardly.
You were the superstar.
The only reason I passed syntactic
theory is because I was living with you.
Oh, you lived together?
Yeah, you remember I told you
about my boyfriend from
grad school, Harry.
So, I hear you're still at Harvard?
- Mm-hmm.
- And did I hear
- that you also got a genius grant?
- Well, as they say,
"Pole pole"
Yeah.
- "Ndio mwendo."
- Aw, yes!
"Ndio mwendo."
So great. Amazing.
Pole pole ndio mwendo.
Oh.
Harry, um, so you in academia too?
Oh, no, no. I'm in computer sales.
Amazing.
Yeah.
Uh, it's so great to meet you.
- Really.
- Thanks.
And, uh, I have a talk to get to.
- Oh, yeah.
- But I'll see you around?
- Yes, for sure.
- Okay, great.
So good to see you.
Oh, he's wonderful.
So that's your ex-boyfriend?
Yes, Harold. He's great.
I haven't seen him in forever.
Oh, funny, 'cause you
knew he went to Harvard,
you knew that he won the genius grant.
And it's so adorable you two have
your own little secret language.
Yeah. It's Swahili, Harry.
Literally millions of people speak it.
I don't know, just think
it's kind of weird
that you never mentioned
that we have the same name.
I don't tell you everything
about all of my exes.
Well, I know that your
junior year boyfriend
was named Curtis and that he
was allergic to Sharpies.
Then you dated Rick
and he had a mole that
looked like a VW Bug.
Uh-huh. I dated Harold
a very long time ago.
You don't have to be threatened.
- Threatened?
- Yeah.
Helen, I am so not threatened.
I just don't understand why you
never mentioned him before.
I don't know, Harry. You know?
You kind of get a little weird
when you think someone
is smarter than you,
so I just usually just leave it alone.
Oh! You think he's smarter than I am?
I didn't say This is the weird
- this is the weirdness.
- Yeah.
Hey. Sorry, am I interrupting?
That was Ximena with the code.
We got to go. Now.
All right, Harry.
Luther and Maria are in place.
You good in there, man?
In position. So far, so good.
Nah, I mean, what was
up with you and Helen
back at the conference?
No, it's fine.
Helen just, uh, ran into an ex.
You don't say?
Kind of sounds like the perfect time
to bring up the whole Ximena situation.
There is no Ximena situation.
Which one is Helen's ex?
Was it the tall guy? He was hot.
Who broke up with who?
That doesn't matter, guys.
Aren't you supposed to
be doing surveillance?
I'm trying to focus on the mission here.
- Could you just
- Harry,
spotted Ximena.
Incoming to your position.
Harry. Querido.
Thank you for coming.
Gracias.
So tell me, what is so
urgent that I get a visit?
- Ximena, you're in a lot of danger.
- Ay, Harry, you worry too much.
All these years, you swore
the world was about to end,
and yet here we are
eating oysters.
Aw
Está bien.
Ximena, look, this is different.
- Have you heard of the ILF?
- Oh, those idiots
who think that if they blow up the world
anyone that's left is
gonna put them in charge?
What about them?
Those idiots are planning
a high-tech terror attack
with bioweapons planted
in a dozen countries.
The CIA got into their system,
but it's encrypted.
So you just need to crack it?
Of course, Harry. For you.
The thing is, the ILF knows the
CIA has been following you,
which means they know you're
the only one standing in their way.
You think they'll come after me?
Not if we can take 'em out first.
These are all the details of the
encryption that we need you to break.
Harry.
We got a problem.
Four guys, incoming. Looks like ILF.
How did they track her?
I-I don't know,
but you got to scramble now.
- Move!
- It's too late. They found you.
Harry, do you need us to come in there?
Negative. There's too many civilians.
I can't afford a firefight.
No back door? What, Madrid
- doesn't have fire codes?
- Come on.
Do we have to fight our way out?
No, it's too risky. I got an idea.
Go, crack the encryption.
Bring me the plans tomorrow.
1400 hours, the corner
of Flores and Carretas.
I'll be there.
Adios.
Sorry about this.
So, I poked around and got some info
on our friend from last night.
Grozdan Ivanov. Bulgarian.
Convicted of war crimes.
Recruited by the
Liberation Front in '16.
Oh, oh, and his buddies.
Almost as bad.
I brought Helen in just in
case they show up to the hotel.
- Okay.
- Do we know that
- Ximena made it out?
- Yeah, she's good.
She's gonna be at the meeting.
And what about this encryption
expert shouldn't I see her, too,
just in case?
Well, I mean, these covert assets
They get weird when you photograph them,
so I don't even think
we have pictures of her.
Isn't that right?
- Harry.
- Yeah?
It seems like Dana's not the only one
using her sneaky voice.
Maybe I should see some of
the surveillance from last night.
- Right?
- Harry?
For recognition purposes?
- Sure, fine. Show her.
- Okay.
Okay.
Last night's op coming up.
Helen, it was nothing.
It wa-it was
it was purely professional.
Ah. Yeah.
So, it was just professional oysters
and professional champagne.
Professional hip dip.
I saw the hip grab.
Let's just look at some
of your old missions.
A romantic bistro,
a darkened bar. Oh, yes.
Look, a nice little stroll
down the Seine in Paris.
Honey, our meetings
have to look personal.
We can't show up in spy
trench coats and sunglasses.
Okay, well, there's a middle
ground between trench coats
and spaghetti strap evening gowns.
I wanted to tell you
so bad over the years,
but it was literally illegal for me
- to say anything.
- Mm.
Well, it's not like you
told me everything, either.
I
The security line.
It could be an emergency with the kids.
Harry Tasker.
Surveillance update.
Fox Cub One observed purchasing
a pink tube top.
Communications intercepted
about a gathering at the home
of a Barry Weems, alias Zoner.
Age 18, arrested
for possession of a water pipe,
commonly known as a bong,
age 16. Charges dismissed.
See? This is why I wanted to know.
This is why I didn't want to know.
How am I supposed to run an operation
when all I can think about are
the words that rhyme with Zoner?
Har
Are we calling her?
Are we stopping this?
If we call her she'll
know we're spying on her.
Continue surveillance or not?
Honey, come Are you
Continue surveillance. Over and out.
All right, we got to go
to the meeting. Let's go.
Remember, you're maintaining our cover,
so when you go to the conference,
do what you do best. Mingle, say hi,
smile with that
beautiful smile of yours,
mention me, mention the team,
say we're selling computers.
Okay, and what are you gonna be doing?
We got to go see Ximena.
Hopefully she decoded
the ILF's encryption by now.
- Oh.
- Helen!
Great news. Hey, Harry.
Hey, Harold.
I got you a guest lecture
at my department at Harvard.
Oh. That-that's amazing. Thank you.
- Really? Wow.
- Yeah.
My department chair's at the bar.
We can discuss the details,
have a glass of champagne to celebrate?
Oh, yes.
Who wouldn't love a
professional glass of champagne?
- You know about those.
- Very funny.
Enjoy your meeting, honey.
Thank you, honey.
Harry.
I don't want to say I told you so
about the whole situation with Ximena,
but, wow, did I tell you so.
Thanks, man. I really appreciate that.
With everything going on, I just
could use some support.
Harry, I am on your side, dude,
'cause Harold is a smoke show,
and he's a genius,
and-and they lived together,
so that is way worse
than having dinner with an asset.
Great. I don't know what you're trying
to do to me,
but that's not helping at all.
You should feel good, bro.
She could have settled
for a lot of other guys.
She settled for you.
Yeah, good one, Luther. Thanks.
Can we just focus on the,
uh, mission at hand here?
Right, mission.
All right, so here's the plan.
I'm gonna set up on a nearby street
out of sight. Harry, you're with me,
while Luther and Maria
position themselves
and cover the area from
a sniper position.
I'll run surveillance with the drone
while you go get the plans
and bring in Ximena for exfiltration.
And there she is.
Look at that.
You know, it's like she's
immune to helmet hair.
All right, Harry, you're up.
Get out of here.
Hold up, hold up, hold up.
Picking up some radio signals.
Uh, I think I can hack in.
Foreign chatter.
What is it?
Sounds like a tactical team.
I think someone may be following Ximena.
Scratch that.
Someone is definitely following Ximena.
Guys, cover her.
Harry! Harry, where you going?
We can't stop it. It's armored.
Ximena turned down a side street.
Doubling back on Avenida Monterrey.
Perfect. I can cut them off.
Uh, not perfect.
What are you gonna do
when you get there?
Trust me, Gib, I've got an idea.
How do you say "chicken" in Bulgarian?
Well, you don't say "chicken" in
You can't play chicken with
an armored SUV, Harry.
Well, I'm gonna try. Wish me luck.
I wish you would not do this.
Whoa!
- Are you okay?
- I'm fine.
- Just a little road rash.
- Harry. You could have died.
I still can't believe
that you wedged yourself
under an armored SUV to save
to save Ximena.
Honey, I actually did that
to save the entire operation.
Hopefully, Ximena will call soon.
Yes, we would not want to
lose touch with Ximena.
- For the mission.
- For the mission.
- For the mission, honey.
- For the mission.
She has information we need
to stop bombs from going off
in a dozen countries.
Omega Security.
Helen Tasker.
Update on Fox Cub One.
Subject about to leave
for Zoner's party.
Is she wearing the tube top?
Can I get a read on
the approximate tightness, please?
Mm
Affirmative on the tube top,
appears to be within normal
tightness parameters.
The cookies are in the jar.
Hang on.
Fox Cub One is apparently getting a ride
with the driver of a muscle car,
yellow, black stripe.
Male, approximately 17 years old,
like a Zack Morris vibe?
Do we have any intel
on this muscle car driver?
Uh, an ID? A GPA?
Helen, we got a problem.
Yeah, our daughter is getting
into a yellow muscle car.
Gib, what's going on? What's wrong?
Uh, you know how yesterday,
I cracked into the ILF's comms systems
- with an RTL-SDR?
- Yeah.
Well, I placed an electronic
geo tracker on them, and
we found them, and they're here.
Here? How?
I have no idea.
All I know is that
there's a team of guys
talking Bulgarian about
going after a Harry,
and they're in the hotel.
- What am I gonna do with this?
- Use it.
Harry, I was grading papers,
I didn't even finish weapons training.
Well, you're about to
finish weapons training.
Just point it at
the bad guys and shoot.
Harry, you guys ready?
Ready as we can be, Gib.
Harry, they're coming.
I can't see them, but I can hear them.
H-Harry? Helen?
Um
yeah?
What's going on, Gib? They're not here.
Whose hotel room
did these guys just break into, then?
Please, my name is Harold Winslow!
I'm a linguist here for a conference!
I'm a MacArthur Fellow. Uh
Um, guys?
I think the International
Liberation Front
just abducted Helen's ex-boyfriend.
What? Why?
I don't kno
Harry, meet me
at the tac van. Now.
Well, looks like they stopped.
We have any idea where we're going?
The GPS is following
their radio signals.
Just stay on 'em.
- Gib, how did this happen?
- Uh, well,
the Bulgarian translation's iffy,
but basically,
the ILF was listening in
on Ximena's cell phone somehow.
That's how they've been finding her.
Yep. And then,
when she called the hotel,
they were listening.
So she calls, asks for Harry,
they accidentally send
her to Harold's room,
she leaves a message,
the ILF guys come,
bust in the doors looking for you.
What's the message?
It's a date.
October 19, 2005.
We met at a safe house on that date.
Okay. Okay.
Harry, we got to get
somebody over there
to get the location of those
bioweapons from Ximena.
Gib, we're going up
against a terrorist team
armed with machine guns.
We can't spare anyone.
Wasn't thinking one of us.
- No.
- Yes.
- No. No.
- Yes.
- No!
- Listen to me.
Sending Helen is the safest option.
- She can't
- Yes.
The clock's ticking on
this terrorist attack.
Do you really want
thousands of people to die
because you're uncomfortable
with your wife
speaking to your ex?
- Harry? Are you okay?
- Yeah, I'm fine.
All right. Did you save Harold?
Uh, well, we're working on that.
Listen,
Helen, um, we need you to do something.
Wh I-I My hands are
still shaking. What do
I-I know. Um,
we need you to go to a safe house.
It's near the hotel,
and we need you to get
the ILF's decoded plans.
It's a safe house where I met Ximena.
- Wouldn't she be expecting you?
- Honey,
there-there's really no other way.
Okay. Where am I going?
A romantic cafe? Lingerie
- store dressing room?
- Very funny.
I'm kidding. I ju
Give me the address.
2626 Calle de Marta.
She's hiding, so she may not answer.
Okay, all right.
I'm gonna bring the, uh,
door unlocker thingy.
What is it called?
"Unlocker thingy's" fine. Be safe.
Okay, bringing it to the
Safe houses look a lot
like love nests, I guess.
Hello?
Ximena?
No! I'm not
Wait, I'm a friend! I'm a friend!
Wait! I'm Omega Sector!
Where's Harry?
What did you do with him?
He sent me here. I'm his wife.
I know all about you.
You like oysters and champagne
and you look very lovely
in a thigh-slit dress.
All right, any idea
what's going on in there?
I'm working on it.
Just got to get eyes on the situation.
Watch this.
Not a lot of cover for an approach.
Yeah, but we got skylights right there.
Yeah, but we're sitting ducks
till we hit the ground.
Not if I turned out the lights.
Let's be careful in there.
I don't want to die saving
Helen's ex-boyfriend.
You got this message
from this woman Ximena at the hotel.
- Where is she?
- I-I don't
I don't know who you're talking about.
Then why?
Why she send you message, huh?
I don't know!
Liar.
No games.
Tell me where Ximena is.
Guys, we got to move fast or this
man's gonna have a serious limp.
We're in position. How's our cover?
Uh, I got an AI hacking
into the local power grid.
I think I can buy you about 30 seconds.
That enough?
It'll have to be.
You decoded the file?
We can find those bombs?
I just need to take care
of something first.
So, is your ear okay?
Feel like I might have
poked your brain a little.
It's fine. How's your throat?
It's fine. Yeah. No, it, uh
happens all the time.
I'm sorry I attacked you.
I thought you were an ILF assassin.
A An assassin?
So, um
that code that you had with Harry.
The date?
What was that all about?
I figured the ILF was listening,
so I left a message that
only he would understand.
Mm, mm, mm.
We were here the day I
fell in love with him.
So, this was kind of like a
like a your love nest?
No. No, no, no. There wasn't any time.
He kissed me, then he said he'd be back.
Okay.
So then, when he came back,
you both did
Broke my heart.
He said he'd met someone
in Puerta del Sol.
Was that you?
Yeah-yeah, that was me.
I always thought that Harry's new love
would be some American suburbs lady.
You know, she just
raise his kids, go to yoga class.
At least he left me for a spy.
Yeah, well
you know Harry.
Are you sure he said Puerta del Sol?
Self-destruct armed.
There are some things you never forget.
But sometimes
you have to let go of the past.
Yeah.
Oh! Oh
She left a message for you.
Your name is in it.
I d-I don't know why.
Th-There's millions of Harolds.
At the hotel, there was
Harry the computer salesman.
A computer salesman?
Who is this computer salesman?
I don't know him. I-I just met him.
Guys, heads up.
Lights coming up in three, two
Guns down, everyone!
Everyone, or I kill him!
Okay. Okay.
Calm down.
Gib, I need a distraction.
I only need one second.
Yeah, I'm on it.
Uh, I'll do my best. Um
Uh
Oh, okay. Okay, okay, okay, okay.
Harry, do you know who Ximena is?
Harold, stop. Hey, just let him go.
You don't want to hurt
anybody. You have us.
This is computer salesman?
Salesman who shot all of my men.
I'm sorry to do this to you, baby.
I love you.
We got him.
Guys? We all right in there?
Yeah, Gib. It's over.
Hey, Harry.
- Hey, Harold.
- Hey.
Just so you know,
I'm not threatened by you.
So, you're a spy?
That's classified. But yeah.
It's starting to make more sense
why Helen broke up with me.
She broke up with you?
Kind of seemed like you
guys had a lot in common.
Don't you speak 30 languages?
Well, she said she didn't need someone
who spoke 30 languages.
She needed someone who
spoke her language.
- Think I'm gonna throw up again.
- Do what you got to do, man.
Looks like Helen
finally made it, which is nice,
'cause I got to get this
hard drive back to Omega.
From Ximena, the ILF plans decoded.
Mission accomplished.
Also, I think it was
her last day on the job.
She blew up her entire system.
She said that if the
ILF can hack her phone,
she needs to find a new line of work.
It was really dramatic.
Wow.
- Harold.
- Helen.
You doing okay?
Eh, yeah, just a little
sick to my stomach.
Harry saved me.
So, you're a spy, too?
That's classified.
But kind of.
- Huh.
- Yeah, yeah.
Okay, you done? All right.
You know, we should probably
get you debriefed, buddy.
Come on, come with me.
They're gonna ask you
a lot of questions,
you're gonna have to
sign a bunch of stuff
that says you'll never
speak about this again.
But it's not all bad.
You get soft serve ice cream.
- Oh.
- All right?
- Sounds nice.
- Yeah.
I liked Harold. Smart guy.
Speaks a lot of languages.
Yes. There was one he didn't speak.
Yeah, he mentioned something about that.
Oh. Well, Ximena mentioned
a couple of things.
- Oh, you spoke to her?
- Yeah.
We had a rough start,
but then, you know, we warmed up.
She said that you
met someone
in Puerta del Sol?
Huh. Isn't that where I met you?
Yes, I think that it is.
Oh! Also, I invented a new move
to get out of a chokehold.
- Well, you got to show me.
- Yeah.
Oh!
That's what I did.
That's exactly what
That's my move.
You're becoming quite
the spy, Helen Tasker.
So how'd you guys
do while we were gone?
Fine.
How was, um, wherever you were?
So great.
Your mom was the star of the conference.
She's guest lecturing at Harvard.
Cool.
So, what'd you guys get into?
You know, just hung out with friends.
I'll get it.
Hey, kitty cat.
Mom, Dad, Mrs. Myers is here.
It's good seeing you, sweetheart.
- You, too, Mrs. Myers.
- All right. You take care, now.
- I'll see you soon, all right?
- All right.
- Hi. Yay.
- Thank you, Mrs. Myers.
Hope you had a good trip.
Brought you cookies
- and a surveillance file.
- Okay.
So photos?
- Of Dana and the muscle car boy?
- Yes, dear.
Is there anything on there
that we need to know about?
Hmm. I would say no.
But if you're wondering
if there's anything that would
make you uncomfortable?
Definitely.
But enjoy the cookies.
So, we should probably
give Dana her privacy,
you know? Right?
It's like Mrs. Myers said
There are some things
we don't need to know.
I'm so glad we're on the same page.
Me too.
