Hey, sweetie. Come here right now.
- So fancy for breakfast. - Amina, breakfast!
Grandpa!
- Hey. Morning, dad. - ...the rain...
Let me be your whiskey. Kill the pain.
Thank you.
- Oh, be careful. - Yeah, yeah.
Oh, you reunited with your best friend.
Oh... If she sets her mind in something... Reminds me someone I know.
I don't know who that is.
Adorable.
Mina, do you want orange juice?
Daddy!
- I thought he was coming tomorrow. - What date is it?
Jesus, it's the 23rd.
Shit!
So, I conveniently forgot, sue me.
You can't stop her seeing her father.
- You're taking his side now? - It's not about sides.
Your daughter deserves to know her daddy.
You know you loved each other once.
Yeah, I wasn't the one who ruined it.
He was working late hours, doing God knows what with who.
I know.
Come here right now.
There's daddy. Okay, all right.
Daddy!
Hello, puppy.
10:00 am, as promised.
- I'll bring her back at 6:00. - Okay. Bye, baby.
Are you okay? You seem a little distracted.
Uhm... Yeah, yeah, I'm fine. Just work stuff.
I'm good.
Okay.
Watch your hands, Amina.
Hey, what you got there?
What's this?
Should we have a story? You want a story? Yeah.
Riky and Raky's adventure began at the zoo.
Dinosaurs live in the zoo!
- In our story, they do. - Yes!
- Do you like your new costume? - Yes, Mama!
Yes!
Now, what are we missing?
Drugs! For papa, of course.
- That's not what we pay. - But it is what your father's medication costs.
That may be. But I've never paid that before. I have all the records here.
Today's special discount...
...customers can get 20% off, please take your coupon to the checkout.
- Can I just see the manager? - I am the manager, Ma'am.
What happened to Frank?
He retired last week. Moved to Boca with his family.
- Just give me a minute. - Yeah.
Oh! Okay, I think I see what's going on.
You are right. We just update some details.
I'm so sorry about that, Ma'am.
- You can go and pay at the cashier up front. - Thank you.
Mina?
Amina?
Mina?
Amina?!
MINA!
Has anyone seen my daughter? She's dressed as a dinosaur...
Ma'am, I need you to step outside the store...
Have you seen her? Is she here? Fuck!
Mina! Have you seen a little girl? She's only four! Please, God, please, help me!
Oh, my God! Please!
- Did you find them? Where are they? - Give them a chance. What's going on?
We're doing everything we can to find Amina.
I know Karim took her.
I know he did. He was acting real fucking weird yesterday.
And then Mina told me he was talking about me to someone on the phone.
- He's threatened it before. - He has.
If that's the case, we're struggling to understand...
...why Karim didn't just keep Amina on one of his visits.
How am I supposed to know that?
Can you think of anything you may have done?
- Something I may have done? - Goddamn' it. This ain't her fault.
I didn't mean that.
She didn't do anything to cause this. What the fuck is wrong with you?
I think he's gonna take her home.
Home?
- Syria. - Syria.
He used to talk about it all the time.
Getting a job at a hospital near his family.
We got divorced, he tried to do it then,
I had to get a restraining order, to stop him taking her out of the country.
You need to check all the airports.
What? What is it?
There isn't a federal law that prevents a parent taking their child...
It's kidnapping. He's kidnapped her.
...their own child internationally.
If that's the case, I'm sorry, there's nothing we can do.
You've gotta be kidding? He can just... He can just take her?
So I just... I just... I lose my daughter?
We're following all the procedures...
...we have roadblocks in places...
What other possibilities? What?
You mean like a child-snatcher?
Yes, could you tell me which Ohio airport I'd need for a flight to Syria?
- Hold, please. - Ah-ah.
You can't hide from me. I see you.
- Ah! - There she is!
Flights to Syria depart from Port Columbus via Amsterdam
and rage from $750 to $1000.
Okay, thank you.
We went to Karim's house. I'm afraid it was cleared out.
There were just a few things left.
Did you check Port Columbus airport?
We found his car in long-term storage.
We're checking flight lists, but we now suspect he has left the country.
Karim Saleh Taleb.
She doesn't have any contacts for his family.
- Radiology. - Sorry, I don't understand.
He said his father lived in Riyadh, in Saudi Arabia, but there's no record of him being there.
Look, she never went there and they never came here!
Sorry, I don't have anyone by that name.
- Okay. - I don't know.
You're the lawyer, don't you have an investigator or something?
I don't like your attitude either, pal!
Oh, God...
When Karim took Amina overseas, it wasn't a crime, if you can believe that.
I've been without my baby girl for...
...(crying) over two years.
And every day I don't get to see her...
...it hurts like a bullet.
Thanks to your incredible generosity...
...I'm gonna get to go to Washington.
And I'm gonna knock on every door and talk to every suit.
And do everything I can to find my baby.
I won't rest until I bring her home, where she belongs.
My mum left me when I was little, I am not walking away from my own.
- I'm afraid to leave you. - No, stop right there.
You stick to your guns. Just like I taught you. Yeah.
- I love you. - I love you.
Take it.
- State your intent. - Petition for a Senate resolution.
And the support of your governor, then bring it back.
You can't block the door, Ma'am.
Excuse me, I can stand here, it's my First Amendment right!
An appointment will be sent to you within the next six months.
Six months? I think I'll wait.
Ma'am...
Do you speak English? I can't read the signature on my x-ray.
The majority of kidnappings in this country are committed by parents.
I think it says Karim Taleb.
Last year, over 25 thousand children were abducted by parents and nothing is being done!
There's no position here by that name.
Okay. Thanks anyway.
Mara Danning has returned to Washington to action a hunger strike...
...with the parent's protest group she formed...
...in the wake of the disappearance of her daughter, four years ago.
Mind if I sit?
- Can I help you with something? - No.
But I might be able to help you.
Look, cowboy, I just want to be alone, okay?
I'm in the child recovery business.
You did this?
Is it legal?
As legal as abduction.
I'm broke, so...
I know.
Keep that.
I have a proposition for you.
Come work for me.
You help me find other people's kids.
I'll help you find yours.
You know, it pays pretty good too.
Call me.
Mara, this is Carl. Heads up linguistics, pretty much anything I can't do.
He's my second-in-command.
- I'm your only-in-command... - Right.
- Nice to meet you. - Glad you called.
It's not a yes.
Okay.
It's for you.
Hey. This is a good thing.
I have contacts all over the Middle East. We'll find her. In time.
I haven't seen my daughter in four years, 86 days, four hours...
- How long has it been since you've eaten? - Nine days.
Here.
I can't.
We're your best option, Mara.
You alright?
Here.
I don't understand why you want me. I trained as a seamstress.
Well, if I can be completely honest...
...we need a woman in our team.
You rouse less suspicion in this line of work.
And you're tough.
That should get you started.
Enough to help with your dad's treatments.
Are you ready for your first case? Come with me.
This... This is Maya.
That's her son, JD.
Barely sees the father until one day he decides: "You know what? I want my kid back".
He beats her senseless and then takes the kid back to Mexico.
I need more intel. She's holding back.
Figure she's scared.
Well, of course she's scared. Look at you. You're like a goddamn sack of rocks.
No one knows what this feels like more than you, Mara.
He said you could get him back. Is it true?
Please. I just want him with me.
I can't sleep. I can't breathe.
We will try to get him back.
First, could you just tell me a little bit about your son?
He is gentle, you know.
He can spend hours drawing and...
...he really likes animals.
- What part do I play? - Your job is to keep the child calm.
At least until we can hand him back to the client.
You give us plausibility, keep everything looking normal.
- So I'm playing mother. - Exactly.
Let me run you through the plan, step by step.
Finding and recovering the target is hard enough.
Then you get him across the border with fake paperwork.
- How do we do that? - This is only Mexico to Arizona. It's easy.
A lot of stray dogs in Mexico.
Hey...
Okay, we're on. Let's go.
Keep a lookout.
Shit...
We're in.
Oh, oh. Hey, wait.
- Shit! - What?
Class must have cancelled. Move it.
Damn! We missed our window.
Means we're going to have to improvise.
- Hey, get ready. - We can't do it here, can we?
Hey.
Wanna play with her?
What is that?
Oh! No, no!
Take him! Take him!
You do it! Go, Go!
Come on, go! Go!
Come with me, it's okay! Come on!
Hey. What the fuck you looking at? Get out of here.
I'm not going to hurt you, okay?
I'm taking you home to see your mom. Mama. Would you like that?
Good boy. Hold my hand.
Shit!
Oh, sorry!
Mara! Mara. Hey.
This way. This way!
Here! Come on. Move, move, move, come on!
Come on! Go, go, go!
Hey, we just...
All right. Good boy.
All right, she's here.
Keep him here. Once we're paid, we'll bring her in.
Are you fucking serious?
Business first.
Two more minutes, I promise, alright?
- Thank you for your time. - Of course.
- May I go? - He is waiting for you.
Thank you.
Oh, my God. Oh! Oh, my God!
Oh, my God!
Oh! Oh!
Can I have what she's having, please?
Hey.
How you doing'?
Your cut.
- Thank you. - Wow. That's...
That's more than I make in six months.
Oh, that's just a fraction of what I need for Amina.
We did something good here. You know that, right?
So how come I feel like a mercenary?
We have to be paid for the risks we take.
She was desperate.
But she found the money. And that's good, right?
I could never afford that.
You won't have to.
Right. "Quid pro quo". It's the jobs they'll pay for it.
Eventually.
How long's eventually?
Sometimes it's cut and dry.
You know, you find the kid, you find a way in. It's pretty straightforward.
But not mine, right? Not Amina.
Well, your ex is pretty good at covering his tracks, but you know that.
I mean, you've been looking for him a lot longer than I have.
You don't have kids of your own, right?
- No. - So...
Why do you do it?
Well, I've just gotten out of the Marines. Panama City Beach.
Was pretty down and out. Didn't have a lot of transferable skills.
And I was hanging at the vet center, you know, looking for work.
Then one day, this guy comes in...
...and he's talking about this Washington mom who wanted her kid snatched back.
You know, it was really good money.
Turns out...
I was pretty good at it. You know, gave me purpose.
So then I don't know, formed the unit, hired Carl.
Rest is history.
You ever had a job go bad?
Let's not dwell on that. Okay? Today was a good day.
To your future.
Scotland?
The kid's grandmother gave evidence that the stepfather is violent.
Yeah, he has convictions...
...but he won't be in Edinburgh when we snatch back, he'll be traveling for work.
Okay.
- May I help you? - Yeah. Hi.
Could you tell me who I need to speak to get a list of all the hospitals in Lebanon?
We have a new case. Top priority.
Albania!
Thought it was getting pretty rough out there. It's in chaos.
Yeah, well, chaos is good cover.
- Where's the rest of the intel? - That's all I have.
It's got to be this one.
There.
Mara, grab her. Come on.
Aria?
- Come with me, sweetheart. - Come on. Come on. Come on.
Let's go. Let's go. Let's go.
- Stay close. - Let's go.
This way. This way!
Hey, hey, get the fuck back!
Get off her! Hey! Get out!
- Hey! Get the fuck out! - Go, go, go!
Against the wall.
Come on, Let's go.
- Let's go. - Come on.
- Come on, come on. - Come on.
Hey, we got to get to the car.
Go, go, go.
Hey, back. Back.
Stay back!
- Go, go! - Stay back!
- Don't fucking touch me. - Hey!
Hey! Mara!
Come on, run! We got to go. Go!
- Go, go, go, go! - Go, go!
Fuck!
Where's the transport?
- Mitch? - He pulled the plane.
Who?
Lewis.
This is CIA? Why the fuck didn't you tell us?
CIA? What? Who's Lewis?
- Hey. It was on a need to know basis. - Need to...
- Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey. - I'm your partner! I'm in need to know!
Stop it. What does this mean?
It means the CIA got us to do a dirty job and now that it's gone wrong, they're leaving us in it.
Is that true? They're not going to help us?
I'll figure it out.
- I thought we worked for parents. - We do.
It's still a father getting back his daughter, who pays us doesn't matter.
Doesn't matter?
What... what we do, who we do it for is all the fucking matters.
Get us the fuck out of here.
I hope you know what you're doing.
I'm helping people get their kids back.
And is this the best way to get Amina back?
Because you're just putting so much trust in this thing. I just worry that...
...you've lost track of where you're trying to get to.
Listen, I'll decide who or what I trust.
I have to go. Love you.
Then 500 feet and the venue is on the left.
At least I think, it's a little unclear.
- Yeah, Carl's out taking photos. - Okay.
Main entrance is on the main road.
But there's another way on the corner that takes us to the kitchen.
- What? - You're kind of a natural at this.
What if we're giving her to the wrong parent?
What if the mother is no good?
Where's this going?
I almost got rid of her.
Amina.
And now I can't bear to live without her.
I met Karim in the hospital, I had all these problems with my hands and feet.
He did all my scans.
We started seeing each other after that.
He was kind and funny and took care of me.
Made me feel safe. I never intended to get pregnant.
I freaked out.
I left Karim a message, and I drove myself to the clinic.
Right when I was about to sign the papers, Karim came rushing in...
...just... full of passion.
That's what he was like about the things that he loves.
He said: "We can do this. It's going to be okay".
And it was. For a while.
Then he started acting really weird, staying out late.
Wanted me to quit my job. I started drinking too much, I guess.
I mean, it's not really your fault. You didn't really know the guy.
How do you know what I should be punishing myself for?
Okay.
Here's what I do know.
Parents, they need you on these jobs.
What about you?
Do you need me?
Robeson.
What have you got?
- What about Romania? - I'm working on it.
Petra's father really wants his daughter back.
She's the most important thing in the world to him.
I don't object to your private cases, but not at the expense of what the CIA needs from you.
Okay, well, I think I'm helping these parents, too.
And I'm sure that they are very grateful.
But you're a military man, so I know that you understand...
...the plight of housewives and grandparents is not quite as vital...
...as keeping this country and its assets safe.
Stop deprioritizing my cases, Mitchell, or you won't have any.
All right, I'll move Romania to the top of the list.
- How're things going with Danning? - Good.
- She's still looking for her kid. - Of course.
Just remember to keep the trail cold for as long as possible.
Why would you say that?
Karim Taleb is a dangerous man.
She's better off without him in her life.
How dangerous, Lewis?
That's classified. You do your job and I'll do mine.
- Hi. Do you speak English? - Yes, ma'am.
Thank you. Ehm...
I have a patient at your hospital, but I can't read his chart.
I can only read the name of the radiologist.
Can I speak to him, please? His name's Karim Taleb.
- One minute, please. - Mm-mm.
He is not working today. Would you like to leave him a message?
- Taleb? - Yes.
T-A-L-E-B.
He does?
That's him?
That's him!
- What? Amina? - My God.
Come on.
- Mm... - Mitchell.
- Mm-mm?
I found him. Karim is in Lebanon.
How did you?
I tracked him down to a hospital just outside Beirut.
He's been working there for a whole year.
- Are you sure? - Oh, Jesus Christ, Mitch.
Do you know how many calls I've made to hospitals in Syria and surrounding countries?
Hundreds. And suddenly, just like that, there he fucking is.
He didn't even change his name.
Oh, so that's what this is. You come over. Use me.
No. This is the best lead I've ever had.
- I just want to get out there. - What am I always telling you?
- You have to stop and think! - Don't fucking yell at me.
This is finally something real for me.
Okay. I'm sorry. I didn't...
You're right.
It's a good lead. But you won't go out there on your own.
So when the time is right, we'll do it like all the others. Planned. Rehearsed.
And when will be the right time, Mitch? Because you keep saying that.
The fucking time is now. We need to get out there.
Is the Beirut job still on the table?
No. The Beirut job is too risky.
So you take it, and then the client will pay for you to pull strings to get us out there.
Please.
So, as far as we can tell, exit points are here.
And the rear trade entrance. That'll be our best bet to avoid our private security.
Right. Well, we only have one invite, so it will have to be me.
You get trapped, you have to fight your way out alone.
- Yeah. I've done it before. - No.
- I don't like it. - What?
You're kidding, right? It's the perfect setup and the biggest score we've ever gotten.
You know Lebanon is still unstable, right?
Beirut is militarized, and these people have money for private guards.
I'm the one that has to get us out if all goes to shit. Nah, this is a no go for me.
No. I may never have another chance to get out there.
- We'll find another way. - It's been eight years. Eight fucking years!
How much more time do you think I can wait?
Jesus Christ.
- What the fuck was that? - I told you.
I don't like it. It feels dangerous.
More dangerous than taking kids from rich-as-fuck statesmen?
Maybe she's better off if she lets this whole Lebanon lead go.
Are you serious?
She's done all those jobs with us because you made her a promise...
...that one of them would be her own kid.
Imagine that, Mitch, having a mother who loved you that much.
I sure as shit wouldn't have ended up here.
Come on, man. Help us figure out the snatch.
Then we'll go out there, do it as well as we usually do it...
...and then afterwards we'll help her get her daughter back.
Okay?
Come on, man, fuckin' do this.
Okay.
- We're good. - What?
You better know this house inside and out. Every room, every exit.
And this one's by the book. My rules. Okay?
Yeah.
Thank you.
Okay.
It's for you.
I've waited as long as I could for Amina.
When your mom left, remember?
I didn't know...
...whether either of us would be okay.
You were so tiny. Remember?
I took you to the park.
You climbed a jungle gym and you fell off.
I bashed my teeth.
And that woman, she came...
...rushing over.
She said: "Where is your mother?" And you said...
"My mom's gone. But my dad's here and we're just fine."
That's when I knew you would always be okay.
- You have to be strong for me. - No.
Dad, please, no.
You tell her I love her so much.
Hey, dad, dad...
I need to rest now.
Yeah.
You okay?
Hi! Mama!
- Who are you and what did you do with Soraya? - Hey!
You're so tall. Get over here. Your mom's here?
Yeah.
Oh!
It's so good to see you.
- Oh, long time. - Too long, Dasia.
- This is Mara. - Hi. - Hi.
Soraya, go and get the tea. Please.
Nothing changed around here.
No, it's like a zoo in here sometimes. I hope you don't mind.
- But you'll be sleeping in the living room. - Oh, no.
I didn't want you to have to share with the men.
That's very thoughtful. Thank you.
Come on.
Robeson told me that your ex-husband is living here. You are okay to talk about it?
Yeah, of course.
- For you. - Oh, thank you. Thank you.
Please.
- She's wonderful. - They grow so fast.
Do you know where your ex works?
At a hospital just outside the city, I think. But I don't know where he lives.
I'll take you there tomorrow.
See if we can find out.
Hey.
I think I might finally be under the same little patch of stars that she is.
I know you feel close to her.
I really need you focused on this job first. Okay?
I know.
He was on a temporary contract. He's not here anymore.
Hey. It's a process.
He's in the city.
We're going to find him.
- Can you move in it? - Think so.
Yeah.
Okay. No heroics tonight.
Grab the kid and you get out of there.
Be careful, Mara.
Thank you.
As-salam alaykom.
Wa Alykom As-slam.
- Are you from the embassy? - Oh, God, no. Fuck politics. I'm in finance.
Oh, excellent.
Please do tell me if you need an introduction to any of my other guests.
That is so kind of you.
In the meantime, could you point me the direction of the ladies room?
- It's down the hall. - Thank you. Oh!
Shukran jaziilan.
Come on. There's a good girl.
Okay, let's go. Come on.
It's gonna be okay.
What are you doing with my daughter?
- I'm not going to hurt her. - You're taking her away from me?
Don't.
Salma, come.
Salma.
- Oh... - Oh my God.
Is that her?
- You okay? - Drive!
I see 'em, hang on.
I got you, baby.
Get down!
Keep your heads down!
One way. Watch out! Shit.
What happened in there?
Mara, are you going to tell us?
That's a good girl.
Alright...
That's a good girl.
Okay, it's okay.
He's here.
Of course.
Thank you so much.
It was an accident, Mara.
You're not going to let me look for Amina anymore, are you?
Okay, I'm going out. See if I can find us a way home.
- I'll come. - No.
It's not safe. Stay here at the hotel. At least until I can find out if we're in the clear.
Who is it?
- Dasia. - It's Dasia.
- Dasia! - Okay, okay, okay. Hey.
- Hey. - Hey.
- You shouldn't be here. - I have a lead.
On what?
On Amina.
- No. No. Wait for Robeson. - We have to go.
No. You know, a lead only lasts so long. I'll go by myself.
- No. You heard what he said. - A couple of hours, tops.
Then at least we'll have some intel.
Shit.
You should wait here.
- In and out. Okay? - Yeah. Okay.
What are you doing out here?
This is my territory.
The more pertinent question is:...
...what the hell are you doing out here and not in Romania, like I ordered you to?
And at the center of all this is Denning...
...who's compromised us with a snatch back caught up in a bloodbath.
A woman who shouldn't be anywhere near here...
...but is at risk of destroying everything that I've worked for the last eight years.
And a woman who's the only one who could've gotten us in and out.
- Is that right? - That's right.
And you're telling me that you had to take a job in Beirut?
She goes to school with her youngest granddaughter.
Where? Have you met her? Amina.
Have you met Amina?
Once. She is... Rather a rebel, I think.
Once. She thinks that Amina is rather a rebel.
Is she? That's good.
What time do the schools finish?
- At 3:00 p.m... - Okay, could she give me an address?
Robeson, let me make it absolutely clear to you, as you don't seem to have got the message.
It is imperative to my interests and therefore to yours...
...that she does not find Karim Taleb.
So when you asked me to stop looking into Karim, I did.
But if you expect me to keep that mother from her daughter...
...you better tell me what the fuck's really going on right now.
How much do you know about your husband's life here?
What do you know about your husband's life here?
I mean, nothing. Why?
Why do you ask?
- It's late. I should go. - Why? Wait.
She should leave.
Wait. Give her the address. Please?
- I can't. - Please, please. As a mother.
As a mother, I tell you to go see your daughter.
See that she is well, but then you should leave.
As a mother she tells you: Go see your daughter, see that she is fine. But then you should leave.
The enemy of my enemy is my friend.
Good luck.
Listen. I cannot come to the school. I cannot bring trouble to my family. Do you understand?
Of course. Of course.
You've done more to help me in a few days than anyone in my own country did for years.
Go.
- You had me lie to her. - No.
It's not lying if you didn't have all the facts.
- Oh! - Fuck you.
I tipped you off to her...
...so you could give her an opportunity to get involved in something, right?
- Distract her. - Something that would give her life purpose.
- And then you let her lead you right here. - You used me.
You need to convince her that the leads she has are false...
...and you need to get her out of the country immediately.
And if I don't?
Then I can't guarantee that she or her family will be safe.
- From you. - From anybody.
Her desperation is making the situation unstable. And that's when people get hurt.
Do you really want that on your conscience?
I need you to serve your country right now, not her. I know you understand that.
And never put your hands on me like that again.
It's it.
It looks pretty secure. Heavy gates, guards, CCTV.
No back entrance.
School got out 10 minutes ago.
So she lives?
- Hey. - What?
Is that her?
Hey, hey, hey! They'll see you. Shut the door.
We have no plan. Anything you do now, we just tip them off and ruin everything.
Hide your face.
No! Hey! Hey! Fuck.
Amina! Amina!
What the fuck have you done?
Take her. Just take her to the car.
Amina!
Be careful! Be careful!
- Try to keep her calm. Try to keep her calm. - Go, go, go, go!
Come on!
- Hey, Mara, Come on! - It's okay. It's okay.
Nobody's going to hurt you, okay?
- Amina... - Fuck. Come on.
- What does that mean? Carl! - I don't know. I don't know!
Amina!
What are you doing, Carl?
- Carl, go! - Okay.
Come on, Come on, come on. Damn it, come on!
Fuck! Here we go, here we go.
No, no!
- No, no, no. She cannot be here. - No, no, no, no, let us in, let us in, let us in.
Just until we figure this mess out.
It's all right. Does she speak English? I don't know if she speaks English.
Amina?
Tell her I love her.
And tell her she should never have been brought to this country.
And I didn't know and I couldn't find her.
And I just... I just want to take her back to America...
...to be her mom, to be your mom.
She is your mother. She is your mother, Amina.
I don't have a mother. My mother is dead.
What?
She said: "I don't have a mother. My mother is dead".
What's going on?
- What the fuck! - It's not how it looks.
- Really? - We had to grab her. We had no other choice.
We can't stay here.
- Amina. Amina, you have to come with me. - No!
Take this.
You should have known better. It was the wrong way.
So, ehm... Carl just told me you speak good English.
You're stubborn, huh?
I guess you got something from me after all.
Maybe he's wrong. Maybe you don't speak.
I'm top of my class in English.
You were always super smart, Mina.
Amina.
Amina, sorry.
Ehm... I have carried this every day since you left.
Also...
This is me and you.
You're four, it's your birthday.
You're much older now. Do you have any hobbies?
You still like swimming?
- We have a pool. - Wow. Huh? You do?
I race on the team.
I'm... How do you say?
- Oh, Captain? - Captain.
Wow.
You know, I was the one who taught you how to swim.
At home, at the lake, with your grandpa.
I have my "jaddy" here.
Your "jaddy", that's what you call?
Where is he?
Oh... He died.
He'd been sick for a long time...
...but he wanted me to tell you that he loved you...
...very, very much.
You should have waited.
I'm done waiting, dummy. I saw an opportunity and I took it.
- You're reckless. - I'm her mother.
I saw her, you know? After all this time.
I'd imagined it for so long.
My heart, Mitchell. I couldn't wait
Mitchell, it's me. I imagined her running into my harms.
But now she's looking at me like I'm a fucking monster.
How do we get out of this country?
We have to take Amina back to Karim.
- Is that a joke? - I can't get her out.
We're all in danger if we don't return her.
Why? What's happened?
You have to trust me.
- Oh, what? Trust you? - Yes.
After I finally do the thing that no one was prepared to help me with...
...you're telling me to take her back?
What the fuck is going on?
If you try to get past me, I will kill you. If you play one finger on her, I will fuck you up.
- Stop! Stop! - Tell me what's going... Tell me!
Karim has ties to Muslim Brotherhood.
There, now you know.
What?
Apparently, he got caught up to his family's connections.
They blackmailed him into laundering money for them.
And that's when the CIA discovered him.
Oh, the CIA knew?
Mara, we're hired contractors.
My contact, Louis, told me Karim cut a deal with the CIA as an informant.
He works for them.
In return, he gets to keep Amina.
He's been relocating them out here.
Sorry. I just found this out.
All those dead ends.
He blocked my search in Washington, and hired you to keep me from her.
Yes.
Okay. Muslim Brotherhood.
I thought he was having affairs.
If we don't get you out and return her...
...I honestly don't know what he might do.
Oh! Oh!
- Please, stop... - OH!
You kept me working for you.
You slept with me.
I'm sorry, okay?
So what are you going to do now, Mitch?
Because I am not giving her back. And we both know it.
So either help me or let me go.
When this is over, I never want to hear from you again.
You're ready?
Here. Keep your faces covered.
Where are we?
We need to stop for papers so we can get across the border.
Thanks for being so quick. I owe you. I'll call you when I get to Damascus.
Is he your husband?
No.
Would he be with us in America?
No, we just... We just work together, that's all.
Hey, do you want a swing?
Come on.
It's okay. You on?
- Mm-mm. - All right, I got you.
Okay. Are you ready? One, two, three.
I have something similar.
Passport.
There are Americans here.
They want to see your papers.
Shit.
Fuck.
What is happening?
- We can find another route. - It will be like this everywhere.
Going somewhere?
Go, go. "Yalla"!
Are you American?
Are you traveling with anyone?
Wait. Damn, what are you doing?
What's best for us, Mitch. It's okay, come on, sweetie.
Mara...
Say whatever you need to say to keep us safe. I'm not losing her again.
- Hey! - Go, Amina.
Don't move!
Put the gun down! Put the gun down!
Go! Go when you have the chance! Go!
Where are we going now?
I'm going to find us somewhere to cross. It will be okay.
I'm hungry.
Here.
I only eat vegetables.
I don't have anything else.
- I want to go home now. - I told you.
We are going home.
Not to America.
I like it here. I like my friends and my house.
Listen.
You're going to make so many new friends in America.
"Jaddy" won't be there.
- Well, no... - Who will be?
Me, Mina.
Amina.
You and me.
I don't want to be with you.
Okay, well, you don't mean that.
I want to stay with baba. Why would you take me away from him?
Hey! Sit down.
Sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you. Are you okay?
It's just...
You don't know how hard it's been.
And...
...how long it has taken me to find you.
But I was never lost.
What?
I was just at home.
I never asked you to come and find me.
- Where are you going? - It's okay, I'm just... Wait there.
Where is she?
She's safe.
- Who's she with? - A friend.
- I need to see her. Now. - Yeah, it hurts, doesn't it?
Eight years of hurt.
- How could you do it? - I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry for what I've done to you, everything.
I swear, Mara. I was... I was cornered.
If I stayed, I would have put both of you in danger.
And now she's been protected by a very powerful organization.
Yeah. Who helped you to kidnap her. Do you understand how crazy that sounds?
The people I work for threatened me and the family if I didn't relocate...
...I couldn't face it without her.
And honestly, I wanted to give her a better life.
As long as I kept quiet and played by the rules, they gave us that.
You stole her from me.
My little girl.
Our little girl.
Don't you fucking come near me.
Sorry. Okay?
Did you know I was looking for you?
They kept telling me you were getting on with your life.
And you believed that?
It was easier that way.
You took my most...
...precious thing I've ever had.
You obliterated my life.
And you spent this whole time telling her that I was dead.
I don't... I don't get how you can hate me that much.
- I don't. I don't hate you. I thought... - Shut up!
I don't give a fuck of what you think, Karim.
I swear to God, if you say another fucking word, I will kill you.
You have no idea.
But she's not the little girl that I lost anymore.
She doesn't know me.
So I guess...
...I kind of am dead, aren't I?
Thanks to you.
Promise me she'll be safe with you.
Promise me!
I promise.
She's safe.
She's happy. She has a good life here.
You're seeing it for yourself.
Was it ever real? You and me?
Yes. I loved you, Mara.
I did.
All right, so you're going to tell Amina the truth.
You're going to tell her that it was your fault...
...if she hasn't had a mother to be there for her this whole time.
You're going to tell her everything that I did to try to find her.
You're going to beg for her forgiveness...
...and then you're going to help us rebuild our lives together, okay?
I will.
This is not for you.
This is for her.
I understand what my daughter needs.
I always have.
Amina, it's okay, I promise.
Hey.
...
...I've always loved you.
- Amina! - Baba!
