I understand that.
I do.
But this guy, he's not cut like that.

We've got agents staking out the pay phone where she made the call, churches in her area.
What about her ex-roommate? They haven't talked in two years.
Deputy Attorney General went to the Director, told him I can't control you.
What'd you say? I said the Deputy Attorney General needs to get the hell out of my department.
I bet that went over well.
Mm.
One thing I learned in Khe Sanh don't fall down and play dead.
Then again, with the bug in my office and Gene and now Martha I'm pretty much dead already.
She's all right.
Where is she? Bedroom.
PHILIP: Martha? Martha? What happened? Oh, no, it's It's just a bruise.

Nothing is broken.
(sighs) (sniffles) What's your name? (sighs) Philip.
The name you were born with.
Mikhail.
But everyone called me Mischa.
Mischa.
I'll get some ice.
(sniffles) (sighs) (door opens, closes) (door closes) Philip.
If she runs again I know.
I know.
You should tell her that you'll join her, that you'll have a life together.
She needs that hope to get her on the plane.
If you could go back Back? What do you mean, back? With Martha.
If our kids were grown and you could just get out of this whole life? W-What What are you talking about? Would you go with her? Are you crazy? M-Martha and I I'd understand.
It is not like that at all.
It's different, I know, I know.
Yes.
You should get her that ice before it melts.
I love you.
I'll be home in a few hours.
You need to stay.
You should stay.
(knock on door) Who's that? That's Martha.
Martha? Mm-hmm.
Why'd they draw her? Misunderstanding.
Didn't know we knew her.
Carlotti did this? Yeah, based on the Super's description.
This is the boyfriend, Westerfeld.
Not boyfriend.
They married her.
Martha is married to a KGB officer.
Blood tests and everything.
Witnesses.
They seduced and married my secretary.
Maybe we're seeing it wrong.
Maybe Maybe Maybe they fell in love somehow.
Maybe Maybe they knew each other fr-from way back when and reconnected and I'm in charge of FBI Counterintelligence, and my secretary married a KGB officer.
It could have been for a million reasons.
Like what? Money? Sex? Is the Kama Sutra that good? Or was she that unhappy? (inhales sharply) Tomorrow morning, early you will leave for Russia to begin a new life.
Russia? I know it's not easy.
It's the only way.
Okay.
(sniffles) Okay.

I can't.
Not even to visit? No.
(inhales deeply) (sighs) My parents.
They'll wonder w-what happened.
We'll get a message to your parents.
I don't know that I can do this.
You can.
You have to.
There will be people there to take care of I don't speak Russian.
They'll teach you.
I'll be alone.
Just the way it was before I met you.
They'll take good care of you.
Treat you with respect and honor.
They know your sacrifice, Martha.

They'll take good care of you.
Treat you with respect and honor.
They know your sacrifice, Martha.
