You must be the only man in

this country who's fought the Reds.

Like I said, I was forced. I was

hauling off bodies others had made.

Did they force you to write to Strang

to America before he came here?

Was it then when you agreed

on this spying assignment?

Are you serious?

I know you had dinner with Strang.

Know what I ate?

Nope. But I can easily find out.

You can count on that.

Such a complex game.

I like simpler games.

Tomorrow. Big House. 2 pm.

Moscow comes to pitch.

Player 14 from

the Moscow Dynamo pitches...

"My dear wife, Sofia. I'm writing

this in a hospital in Petrozavodsk."

"After those men came in the

middle of the night..." Blah blah...

The letter you sent to Finland.

It's under investigation.

It didn't get sent? You're not

authorized to write abroad.

You are under surveillance.

Our decipherers

have cracked the code.

You might as well confess.

Confess to what?

You were sent here by

the Finnish Secret Police.

You were never abducted for real.

We're building the Soviet Union here,

and it has enemies everywhere.

Spies have been sent over

from America along with the workers.

They want to find our weak spots.

You speak English.

Doesn't make me a spy.

True. But it'll help you prove

you're not our enemy.

This is insane.

We want to know what

the Americans are saying.

And who are the ones saying it.

I've already told them you're coming.

We agreed I could return to Finland.

We haven't agreed anything.

If you want to return to your family

prove that you're on our side.

This isn't my passport.

It is now.

Jussi Ketola doesn't exist in the

Soviet Union, but Jussi Kari does.

From now on you go where

I tell you to go

and do what I tell you to do.

What gave them the idea

that we're spies? Well are you?

Of course not.

So there's no problem.

Never seen this before,

not even from Kallonen.

A Soviet passport is

a very valuable document.

Less trouble for you

if you play along with them.

Tell'em a few good stories.

What kind of stories?

The kind that keep them happy.

So they get to write their reports.

Jussi Kari.

Kari, Jussi. Nice short name.

Jussi Carry.

East Karelia, Soviet Union

John Hill.

COLLECTIVE FARM HOPEA

WORKERS OF THE WORLD UNITE

My wife, Martha.

Here's our pride and joy.

Laina.

Jussi, come.

The Soviet Union is a fine country.

This farm of ours, Hopea

we're prospering, the production

keeps growing all the time.

Everything you need is here.

Danes, Swedes, lots of Americans.

But most of them understand Finnish.

We're always building something,

to be able to house all the people.

Lots of workers will be coming

here for harvest time.

It's kind of modest.
