ALL ARKADY BROOKS CLAUDIA DISPATCHER ELIZABETH END FRED GAAD GOLDEN_EARRING HENRY JARED LARRICK MAN MARTHA MILITARY_OFFICER NINA OLEG PAIGE PHILIP POLICE_OFFICER SANDRA STAN THE VLAD WOMAN PHILIP Previously on "The Americans"... ELIZABETH He met with Kate. I saw him with her. Maybe they're just a step ahead of us. They're supposed to be taking care of him. LARRICK It's not you that I want. It's the scumbags who killed my friends. OLEG Our illegals are working on getting...their hands on radar absorbing material. But now the Centre needs 'Echo.' NINA Echo? OLEG It's a computer program. ARKADY 'Stealth' is what we want. STAN I understand it's some sort of computer program, but that's all I know. And the fact that the KGB wants to get their hands on it. PHILIP They want us to move on something -- now. Paint samples they use on a Stealth aircraft. PHILIP They make radar-absorbent paint, and we need a sample. ELIZABETH We have shoes with special soles that would pick up traces of what we need. STAN What the hell is going on here? ARKADY When you deliver the Echo program to me, I will let Nina Sergeevna go free. And you two love birds can fly off together. PHILIP Here you go. Anywhere on the factory floor, 45 seconds. The paint dust is microscopic. You won't see it, but it's everywhere. FRED Got it. PHILIP And more isn't better. Just get what you need and move on. ELIZABETH When you get back to your car, put them in here. PHILIP There's a Dumpster on Rockland between 11th and 12th. Just throw them in there, then call from a phone booth five blocks down on Purchase and 11th. This is the number for this phone booth here. You look ready. Are you ready? FRED I'm ready. PHILIP Great. We'll wait for your call. ELIZABETH Good luck. SANDRA What's going on with you? STAN Are you kidding? SANDRA N-- It's not just that. I know you. Something else is going on with you. STAN Well, maybe you just don't know me as well as you think. DISPATCHER 46-Alpha. Copy. PHILIP What do you want to do about Paige? ELIZABETH I don't know. I mean, she's 14. She's...going to give us a hard time. PHILIP I can't believe she's in Pennsylvania by herself. ELIZABETH When I was 14, my mother had diphtheria. I took care of her for 10 months. No one helped me. I went to school. I -- PHILIP That must have been hard. PHILIP There were these gangs in Tobolsk for years after the war. And I used to have to get milk from halfway across the city. And, sometimes, I'd get...jumped on the way back. I was a couple years younger than Henry is now. And one day, I noticed this kid following me, and I recognized him from the week before, which meant the others were waiting ahead. And I just decided, "That's it. No more." So I turned around. I double-backed, and -- DISPATCHER Attention, all units. PHILIP And -- DISPATCHER 127 zone, shots fired at 5327 Industry Concourse Boulevard. POLICE OFFICER This is 42-Alpha, dispatch. DISPATCHER Suspect has exited building, possibly wounded. Location unknown. Suspect is described as white, middle-aged male, balding, medium to heavy build. PHILIP Go. PHILIP Stop, stop, stop! PHILIP Hello? FRED I did it. I got it. I-I-I'm -- I'm shot. PHILIP Are you at the phone booth we talked about? FRED Yes, and I...put what you wanted where we said. PHILIP Were you followed? FRED No. No. I don't -- Oh, my God. I'm bleeding. The, uh, guard stopped me. I didn't have a pass for the floor. He grabbed me. I pushed him. And I ran. There's a lot of blood. PHILIP Stay where you are. We'll be right there. He dropped the package. He's at the phone booth. DISPATCHER North, south sides of location clear. Units converge on East 10th to East 15th. POLICE OFFICER Copy that on East 10th. PHILIP Go. GOLDEN EARRING It's 2 a.m. The fear has gone. ALL No more nukes! No more nukes! GOLDEN EARRING I'm sitting here waiting, the guns still warm. ALL No more nukes! No more nukes! No more nukes! GOLDEN EARRING Maybe my connection is tired of taking chances. POLICE OFFICER Copy that. Getting there now. GOLDEN EARRING Yeah, there's a storm on the loose. ALL No more nukes! No more nukes! GOLDEN EARRING Sirens in my head. ALL No more nukes! GOLDEN EARRING Wrapped up in silence, all circuits are dead. ALL No more nukes! No more nukes! GOLDEN EARRING Cannot decode. My whole life spins into a frenzy. ALL No more nukes! No more nukes! ALL No more nukes! GOLDEN EARRING And he says... ALL No more nukes! GOLDEN EARRING ..."Help, I'm stepping into the twilight zone." ALL No more nukes! GOLDEN EARRING Place is a madhouse, feels like being cloned.

ALL No more nukes! No more nukes! No more nukes! GOLDEN EARRING My beacon's been moved under moon and star. ALL No more nukes! No more nukes! GOLDEN EARRING Where am I to go now that I've gone too far? ALL No more nukes! POLICE OFFICER 44-Alpha. PHILIP He got it. POLICE OFFICER Suspect appears to be in a phone booth at the corner of Purchase and 11th. GOLDEN EARRING When the bullet hits the bone. DISPATCHER Copy that, 44-Alpha. GOLDEN EARRING Soon, you will come to know when the bullet hits the bone. When the bullet hits the bone. MAN We have a right to be here! POLICE OFFICER Dispatch, I'm on scene. DISPATCHER Copy that. POLICE OFFICER You have the suspect, Charlie? POLICE OFFICER Uh, suspect in custody -- bleeding bad. We need EMT. POLICE OFFICER Okay, paramedics are three minutes out. POLICE OFFICER Uh, he's code gray. Get the coroner out here. He's gone. GOLDEN EARRING When the bullet hits the bone. When the bullet hits the bone. MILITARY OFFICER I appreciate your concern, Agent Beeman, but I can assure you there's no way the Soviets can get near Echo. STAN It's not on the ARPANET? MILITARY OFFICER No. There is only one place where it runs. It's here. MILITARY OFFICER Single-compartmented vault. MILITARY OFFICER One mainframe. STAN Well, I want to interview anyone who works with the program, review their security files. MILITARY OFFICER DoD security reviewed all our personnel less than a month ago. Can't you just, uh, review those reports? All right. All right. Just trying to save a little time. You want to meet them, I can set it up. STAN Thank you. What about copies of the program? MILITARY OFFICER There are three disks in the world, each kept in an EMP-grade hardened safe...like this one. STAN So, this is it, huh? MILITARY OFFICER That's it. There's a copy at Cheyenne Mountain and another in a location I don't know about, so I can't tell you about it. But I don't think the KGB can find it without kidnapping the President. STAN And what exactly is on this disk? MILITARY OFFICER Code. STAN Code? MILITARY OFFICER Hard to believe the future of the free world rests on all those numbers and symbols, huh? STAN Yeah. PAIGE It was amazing. Two other church groups were there. Everyone was marching and singing. And not just at the base we were at. People were protesting at bases all over the country. PHILIP And was it, uh, peaceful? No problems? PAIGE We were peaceful. I mean, we were there to protest for peace. But the police -- You should have seen them. They didn't care. HENRY There were police? Cool! PAIGE It wasn't cool, Henry. It was -- Pastor Tim got arrested. PHILIP What? ELIZABETH How did he get arrested? PAIGE Well, he chained himself to the gate to keep them from moving their trucks and their weapons in and out. PHILIP Well, chaining yourself to the gate of an Army base is a pretty good way to make sure you get arrested. PAIGE It's called civil disobedience, Dad. ELIZABETH We know what civil disobedience is. PAIGE I'm not talking about the idea of it. I'm talking about doing it, making a difference. I don't expect you to understand. PHILIP Paige, we let you go. PAIGE This moved me, okay? I mean, this is the whole point of the church. It's not all about just Jesus and the Bible. It's about what He represents -- that He was willing to sacrifice Himself. Look, I-I'm sorry. I know you don't want to hear this, but...He was willing to sacrifice Himself for the greater good. And that inspires me. STAN ELIZABETH They in bed? PHILIP Out like a light. I don't think she slept the whole trip. If she said one more thing about nonviolent resistance, I was gonna punch her in the face. ELIZABETH At least she's got some passion in her. She wants to do something good. PHILIP She thinks a church pastor being arrested for loitering is some kind of hero. ELIZABETH I know. I wish I could tell her about the real heroes -- you know, people sacrificing themselves for this world, not some stupid children's story about heaven. PHILIP Someone sacrificed himself today. I got to go to Martha's. Still nothing from the Centre on Jared? ELIZABETH No. Uh...once they get the exfil set, I'll head up there and send him off. PHILIP Good. I'll see you tomorrow. PHILIP It's important you can share anything with me. MARTHA I know. It isn't always easy. PHILIP Well, marriage isn't easy, I guess. MARTHA I just thought -- I've always imagined a family. PHILIP I am who I am, Martha, and I've tried not to hide myself from you, and I've done the best I can. MARTHA I'm not accusing you of anything. PHILIP Well, I know. It's just you...did say you w-would love me as I am and accept me as I am. And...I guess this is who I am. And I don't see myself having children. And I don't see that changing. I am sorry. MARTHA Well, don't apologize. PHILIP Okay. But I am worried about you. Will you be happy with me without children? Will what we have be enough for you? MARTHA I don't know. I honestly don't. Let's have some wine, huh? PHILIP That's a good idea. Do you want a snack? MARTHA No, I just want a drink. PHILIP Where's your corkscrew? MARTHA Our corkscrew, Clark. PHILIP Yeah. Yeah. Um..."ours" -- I know. MARTHA It's in the drawer by the wall. Oh, I forgot to tell you. I-I finally did it. It's called a Lady Smith. PHILIP Martha, do you even know how to use this? MARTHA The man at the gun shop showed me. It's pretty easy. And the guys from the office are gonna take me to the firing range. MARTHA Hello? Oh, hi. Yes. Yes, he is. Of course. Oh, of course. Oh, I'm so sorry. It's your sister. PHILIP Hello? ELIZABETH Clark, I'm so sorry to call so late. PHILIP What happened? ELIZABETH It's Uncle Drew. He's wandered off, and no one can find him. Mother is beside herself. She just wants you to come home. PHILIP Yeah, yeah, of course. Um, I'll be there as soon as I can. I'm on my way. I'm s-- I'm so sorry. I have to go. It's my uncle. I have to go to Indiana. ELIZABETH I got a signal an hour ago. The Centre cannot find Larrick. PHILIP They can't -- They can't find him? What, he's not in Nicaragua? ELIZABETH He stopped sending reports. The Centre started working their contacts. Apparently, he asked the Navy for family leave, flew back to the States. Now he's AWOL. He got back just before George was killed and Kate went missing. PHILIP We have to get out of here. ELIZABETH Yeah. PHILIP Hey, kids! Get up. Great news. ELIZABETH Get your bags out. We got to pack. PHILIP Up, up, up, up. PHILIP Let's get dressed. This is gonna be fun. Come on. ELIZABETH We're gonna go out of town for a couple days. PHILIP Surprise vacation. Come on, Henry. Get up. PAIGE What's going on? ELIZABETH We're going on a trip. Come on, Paige. Can you help me? PAIGE What time is it? ELIZABETH One of our clients canceled a motel reservation upstate. PHILIP And if we leave now, you can sleep on the way. We'll have the whole day there tomorrow. PAIGE There's something wrong with you. PHILIP There's a lot wrong with us, but now we have to pack and go. ELIZABETH Paige, grab your shoes, okay? ARKADY This will tell you where to leave the Echo information -- by tomorrow, 3:00 p.m. STAN Am I supposed to just trust you? That you'll let Nina go? ARKADY Are we known to keep our word? I believe we are. It's for this very reason. You really love her, yes? When we have Echo, where should we tell her to go? STAN Tell her to meet me where we first met. ARKADY She will be there -- at 8:00 p.m. And...don't tell her "I love you" so much. A Russian woman doesn't like that. She won't respect you. MARTHA Agent Beeman? Agent Gaad is looking for you. STAN Martha. VLAD Nothing beats American fast food. Do you want something to drink? SANDRA STAN ELIZABETH This is what I really look like. You doing okay? JARED Have you...heard anything from Kate yet? ELIZABETH As soon as I know something for sure, I promise I'll let you know. We're almost there. JARED Thank you. MARTHA Morning, Agent Beeman. STAN Morning. BROOKS Hey. Morning, Stan. GAAD Hey, Beeman, come here. STAN Yeah? GAAD Take a look at this. Is it even? STAN Yeah, looks good. GAAD You all right? STAN Yeah. GAAD I mean, I know things haven't been good at home. STAN Yeah, Sandra moved out. GAAD Oh, shit, Stan. STAN 20 years. I don't know what happens now. BROOKS Just got a call from Virginia Beach P.D. Jared Connors -- His foster mother called in yesterday. He's missing. PHILIP I'm gonna go into town and get some groceries. HENRY When's Mom coming back from her hike? PHILIP When...she gets tired of the mountain air. Shouldn't be long. You guys want something special -- Pop-Tarts, Froot Loops? HENRY Strawberry-frosted. PHILIP Coming up. HENRY Thank you. MAN Uh, here. Why don't you -- Uh, let's take that over there. Now, we're -- I th-- I thought we were up here. Weren't we up here? WOMAN Ah. That's too high. PHILIP Need help figuring it out? MAN Ah. These backwoods roads can be pretty confusing. WOMAN Everything's ready. MAN We'll be set up 1/4 mile due north of town, ready to go in four hours. You bring him to us. PHILIP He'll be with a woman. Good luck with your trip. MAN Yeah. LARRICK Keep your hands out. PAIGE Where's Mom and Dad? HENRY Well, Mom's on a hike, and Dad went to the grocery store. You want to play Monopoly? PAIGE No. HENRY Mm. Chutes and Ladders? Parcheesi? PAIGE No. No. HENRY Well, then, what do you want to do? PAIGE I want to go back to sleep. Why don't you go on a hike? HENRY By myself? PAIGE Yeah. Or just sit here and wait for Mom and Dad to come back. If they're coming back. HENRY Of course they're coming back. What's your problem, Paige? PAIGE I think...Never mind. HENRY What? PAIGE You don't think it's totally weird? They wake us up in the middle of the night, drag us to a motel in the middle of nowhere, and leave. HENRY Mom's on a hike, and Dad went to the store. What's the big deal? PAIGE How long have they been gone? HENRY Where do you think they went? PAIGE I don't know. And I don't care. I don't. I'm done. I'm counting the days till I can get the hell out of this lunatic asylum, go to college, be with normal people. ELIZABETH I guess...16 years. I mean, I didn't see them all the time. But when we did...People like us don't have a lot of people to talk to. JARED I guess. ELIZABETH I never met anyone who loved their kids as much as your parents did. And...the risks that they took -- It was because they believed in something greater than themselves. You have to understand that. They wanted the world to be better -- for everyone, for you. JARED Yeah, Kate already told me all that. ELIZABETH But Kate didn't know them. It was just...They were amazing people. And they never -- they never thought anything like this would happen, Jared. JARED In what you do...does that happen...often? ELIZABETH Well, I guess...I mean, it's always a risk. JARED And nobody's heard anything from Kate? ELIZABETH How many times did you meet with Kate? JARED Uh, a bunch. ELIZABETH Be quiet. LARRICK Don't. Hands! Drop the wood. Walk. Walk! ELIZABETH It's okay. It's okay. LARRICK Don't look at me like that! I didn't start it. You force me to do all these things. And then, when it's finally over, you take the last thing that I give you and use it to kill my brothers. ELIZABETH That wasn't supposed to happen. LARRICK Over here. Put these on. Come on. I'm turning you and your partner in. I don't care what happens to me anymore. ELIZABETH Yeah. You're such a decent man. You kill his parents, his little sister. LARRICK I already told you -- I didn't do that. Believe what you want. I don't care. Get in the trunk. Now! ELIZABETH No! Aah! LARRICK LARRICK PHILIP JARED ELIZABETH H-Hang on a second. Hang on. Got 'em. JARED You -- You have to tell K-- You have to -- You have to tell Kate that I'm sorry. You have -- You have to tell Kate I'm sorry! ELIZABETH Jared, you're hurt. Just be quiet, okay? JARED You have to tell them. You have -- ELIZABETH Who? Tell who? JARED The Centre. You have to tell -- You have to tell them that I saved you. They have -- They have to know. ELIZABETH I will. I will. JARED Oh. I prom-- I prom-- I promised her we were gonna be together. I love her. I love her. And she loves me. We were g-- We were gonna -- We were gonna -- We were gonna work together. We were -- We were gonna do great things. My parents, they didn't under-- I tried to tell them. They didn't understand. They -- They just wouldn't listen. You have -- You have to tell Moscow that I saved you. You -- ELIZABETH You did save us. JARED You -- You said my parents loved me. They didn't love me. No. M-My own -- My family was a lie. My whole life was a lie. When they found out, my father -- my -- my -- my father, he -- he didn't understand...the truth. T-T-The -- The only truth. Kate -- Kate told me who -- who I am, who I really am. ELIZABETH Jared, where did you get that gun? JARED That day in the hotel, that's...when he f-- He threw me up against the wall. He said he'd never let it happen. He was screaming like a crazy person. He didn't think I knew where his gun was? ELIZABETH JARED My mother, she tried -- she tried -- she tried to grab me. PHILIP And what about Amelia? JARED She w-- She w-- She was hysterical, and -- and she would -- she would have gone straight to the police. And -- S-She -- She didn't deserve -- She didn't deserve that. PHILIP And you just cleaned up and went to the pool. JARED I-I had -- I had to. I-I had to protect my cover. What we do...it's for something greater than ourselves. K-Kate always -- K-- Kate alway-- Kate always -- Kate always said the work, the cause...that's what -- that's what ma-- that's what matters. You have to -- You have to -- You have to tell her. You have to te-- When you see her! PHILIP ARKADY This is what he left. PAIGE Great trip. Can't wait to do that again. PHILIP HENRY Well, I had a good time. PHILIP Yeah, me too. ELIZABETH Hen, why don't you go upstairs, and we'll be up to tuck you in in a few minutes. ELIZABETH PHILIP ELIZABETH What the hell is going on? CLAUDIA What happened with Jared was a tragedy. Last year, the Centre started a program to develop officers they're calling second-generation illegals. You do tremendous work, but your cover would never hold up to the type of background investigation required to join the CIA or the FBI. However, one of your children, born to an American citizen, would pass one of these investigations. The Centre asked Emmett and Leanne to bring Jared into the fold. PHILIP And they said no? CLAUDIA The Centre didn't take no for an answer. ELIZABETH So they sent Kate to Jared. CLAUDIA I want you to know I had nothing to do with this. I did not know about it. I would have fought it. ELIZABETH I believe you. CLAUDIA The Centre -- They want Paige to be next. PHILIP That is not an option. CLAUDIA Those are your orders. First, soon, you need to tell her who you really are, who she really is, get her ready. Then, develop her until the time is right for you to tell her that she will join our ranks. It was unforgivable for them to go behind Emmett and Leanne's backs, but don't forget what's at stake in this war. A second-generation illegal could change everything, and, for the right child, it could give their life a meaning and a purpose that they could never get in this country. ELIZABETH That's for us to decide. CLAUDIA Paige is your daughter, but she's not just yours. She belongs to the cause. And to the world. We all do. You haven't forgotten that, have you? PHILIP I'm Philip Jennings. ARKADY I am often under surveillance. PHILIP I know, so you'll appreciate the importance of what I have to say. If our organization ever gets anywhere near our daughter without our permission, my wife and I are finished. ELIZABETH How did it go? PHILIP I don't think they'll go near her. ELIZABETH She's our daughter. PHILIP I got that across. ELIZABETH Philip. She does need something. She's looking for something in her life. What if...What if this is it? PHILIP What? How can you even -- We swore. We swore we would never -- It would destroy her. ELIZABETH To be like us? Paige? Henry? Dinnertime. Paige, can you grab the potatoes? END
