INT. CIA - COMMUNICATIONS ROOM - EVENING
Tech guys and analysts are grabbing their coats, chatting,
leaving for the day, others arriving to take over the shift.
Sandy’s guy is packing a briefcase. Sandy approaches him.
CIA TECH:
(not looking up)
Don’t you have a home to go to?
EXT. IZMAYLOVKSY PARK - FOOTPATH - NIGHT
Poleshchuk walks along the footpath. The night amplifies
every sound - the crunch of gravel, his breath in his ears,
the hum of power cables overhead.
As he approaches a footbridge, he scans the surrounding
darkness for possible surveillance: a jogger running in the
opposite direction... a drunk sleeping on a bench... lovers
sharing a blanket under a tree.
He walks beneath the bridge... and is swallowed in darkness.
EXT. IZMAYLOVSKY PARK - FOOTPATH / BRIDGE - NIGHT
Poleshchuk slows as he comes to the deepest part of the
bridge, the only light from the sodium lamps either end of
the tunnel.
Kneeling just long enough to locate by feel a particular
brick, he fumbles with it and gets it open. It’s an artfully
constructed fake. Inside, he finds a plastic-wrapped deck of
Russian currency.
Poleshchuk pockets the cash, replaces the brick, and then
continues on, out of the tunnel, toward the light at the end.
It has taken seconds.
INT. CIA - COMMUNICATIONS ROOM - NIGHT
It’s late. A few analysts around. Sandy sits, sipping
coffee, near to the telex machines, waiting for word from
Moscow.
INT. CAR - NIGHT
Poleshchuk gets in, takes a moment to look at the money in
his lap. Then, stowing it under his seat, he tries to start
the car. Nothing.
10.
POLESHCHUK:
(Russian)
Come on...
He tries again. Still nothing.
POLESHCHUK (CONT’D)
(Russian)
Goddamnit...!
He freezes... as, through the windshield, he sees shadows
moving in the treeline at the edge of the parking area.
Poleshchuk tries the engine a third time. Then, with a bad
feeling now, he reaches suddenly for the money under the seat
and climbs out of the car.
EXT. IZMAYLOVSKY PARK - NIGHT
As Poleshchuk moves away from the car, trying to keep calm,
trying not to run, he hears a squealing of brakes to his
right - a VAN pulling up in a spray of gravel.
Poleshchuk keeps walking, still fighting the impulse to run,
as behind him, the van door bangs open and a KGB SECURITY
TEAM explode from inside, weapons drawn.
More shouting in Russian from in front of him, a second
SECURITY TEAM, these with dogs snarling on leashes, cutting
off his egress...
INT. CIA - COMMUNICATIONS ROOM - NIGHT
Later. Sandy is alone in the communications room. The telex
machines silent. It’s too soon to know anything, but still -
she is concerned.
