Argylle (2024) | Transcript

A reclusive author who writes espionage novels about a secret agent and a global spy syndicate realizes the plot of the new book she's writing starts to mirror real-world events, in real time.
Argylle (2024)

Argylle is a 2024 action-packed spy comedy that unfolds the extraordinary tale of Elly Conway, a reclusive spy novelist unknowingly entangled in a web of espionage and deception that mirrors her fictional creations. As Elly nears the completion of her fifth book in the Argylle series, her life takes a dramatic turn when an actual spy, Aidan Wylde, rescues her from an ambush, revealing that her narratives eerily forecast the sinister plans of a clandestine organization named the Division. The story propels Elly and Aidan from England to France, and eventually to Arabia, in a desperate quest to uncover a critical asset called the “Masterkey,” which could dismantle the Division. Along this perilous journey, Elly confronts shocking truths about her identity, her past as the actual agent Rachel Kylle, and her “novels” which are veiled accounts of her suppressed memories. With twists that blur the lines between reality and fiction, Elly/Rachel’s fight against the Division culminates in a daring escape and a battle that not only seeks to thwart their nefarious schemes but also redefines her understanding of family, loyalty, and her own identity. Amidst betrayal and revelation, the movie culminates with Rachel questioning her reality once more when the true Argylle surfaces, hinting at deeper layers of intrigue, alluding to a legacy intertwined with the Kingsman agency.

How I wish you were here to capture my heart, not simply to capture me, Agent Argylle.

(snaps)

(music stops)

I guess the whirlybird doesn’t catch the worm.

Any last words?

A little help, Keira?

Who’s Keira?

The girl who gave up being the next Steve Jobs to save his sorry ass.

(computer chimes)

(on comms): You’re welcome.

(gunfire)

Need a lift?

Legrange made me. She knew exactly who I was.

Well, then let’s get the hell outta here.

(motorcycle revving)

(tire squeals)

Keira!

She’s hit. Keira’s down.

Sending medevac. You need to stay on target, Argylle.

ARGYLLE: No, I can save her.

Let medevac do their job. You do yours.

That’s an order.

(car horn beeping)

(tires screech)

(tires screech)

(grunts)

(shouts)

(motorcycle retreating)

Wyatt, I lost her.

What’s your status?

I’m about to enjoy a delicious Greek coffee.

Well, I suggest you hurry up.

She’s inbound to your position.

WYATT: Oh, relax.

(motorcycle approaching)

(gasps, sighs)

(motorcycle crashes)

Bad news for you, this is the only exit route off the island.

The good news?

This place makes phenomenal karydopita.

Mmm, I hope you like it.

Because it’s about to be your last meal unless you tell us who told you that we were coming.

Who?

(Wyatt grunts)

You don’t answer, you’re gonna be the same temperature as my coffee right now.

Which, thanks to you, is icecold.

Phone.

You and I, we’re not so different.

You’re a terrorist.

Then what, Agent Argylle, does that make you?

Hmm.

WYATT: Argylle.

Be advised, Legrange,

Agent Argylle is en route to your location now.

(fingers snap)

It seems we serve the same master.

FOWLER (on comms): Argylle, Wyatt, complete your mission and return to base.

Argylle.

Cut your feed.

FOWLER: Think clearly.

Use your head.

You can’t believe a goddamn word she sa–

(audio distorts)

We’re on our own now.

The Directorate will come after us.

So we go dark.

VOICE 2: “So we go dark.”

Off the grid.

“Off the grid.”

Fully.

“Fully.”

We trust each other…

“We trust each other and no one else.”

“You understand me?”

“From this moment forward, it’s a whole new ball game,” warned Argylle.

For he knew there was no turning back.

That nothing would ever be the same again.

(crowd applauding, cheering)

MODERATOR: Elly Conway, ladies and gentlemen. All right.

ELLY: Thank you.

Okay, and, uh, now let’s take some questions.

So Oh. Yes?

Hi, Elly.

Oh, hi. Hi.

I’m actually an aspiring writer, but I can never seem to find the time.

Do you have any advice?

Oh, my goodness, I know how hard that can be.

Um, for me, when I was a waitress,

I was juggling so many shifts.

I never had the time to really write until the, um well, the the skating accident, which I’ve obviously spoken about.

And And I think when something like that happens to you, it makes you realize that tomorrow isn’t promised.

And that if you can’t find the time, you have to make the time to do the things that are important to you.

And once I did that, all the characters and stories and ideas that had been trapped in my head for so many years finally got let out onto the page.

All right, let’s take another question.

Uh, yeah?

Hello.

Hello.

It’s no secret that you are the spy novelist actual spies read.

You have even predicted real-life geopolitical events.

Hmm.

Fleming, Forsyth, le Carré, they all had the same touch and they turned out to be real spies.

So, what?

Are you a spy, too?

(crowd chuckles)

(groans, chuckles)

How do you do it?

Gosh, I wish. I wish.

That would make everything so much easier, but no.

As boring as it may seem, the secret is research, research, research.

Although, that is what I would say if I was a real spy, so…

(crowd, moderator chuckles)

MODERATOR: Okay, next question.

Yes? Young lady, down in front.

Uh, when are we gonna get book five?

(crowd murmurs)

ELLY: Oh. Well.

Sooner than you think.

(crowd gasps, chatters)

MODERATOR: Very exciting.

Uh, yeah? Gentleman in the gray hoodie.

Uh, sorry if this sounds a bit forward, but I don’t know if I’ll ever get another chance to ask, so, do you have any plans tonight?

Oh. (stammers) That’s

(crowd giggling)

That’s very flattering. Um…

But tonight I actually do have a hot date.

(“Now and Then” by The Beatles playing)

(meows)

Yep. Another hot date.

The stolen master file held more than enough proof to bring the Directorate down.

♪ I miss you… ♪

Although the hacker’s price was high, Argylle knew that it would be worth its weight in gold.

Half now, half on delivery.

As discussed.

This phone is the key to the master file.

Go to London.

Once you’ve arrived, you’ll receive a call on that phone from my employer, the world’s greatest hacker.

ELLY: Finally in reach of the silver bullet, which would destroy the Directorate once and for all.

The end.

Book five finished.

Cheers, Argylle.

(birds calling)

(computer chiming)

Mom, morning. Hi.

Did you see my email I sent you last night?

Oh, I read it.

Overnight? The whole thing?

Oh, sweetie, I’m your mother. Of course I did.

I took two Adderall, started, couldn’t put it down.

I was blown away.

You did it again, angel.

Mom, I’m so relieved.

I was going over and over it in my head and stressing and, ugh, I’m just glad you like it, honestly.

Now we can get it out to the publisher and just

Right. Well…

Oh, no.

What? (sighs)

Nothing.

The book The book is phenomenal, sweetie, but

(sighs)

You don’t think it’s ready.

Oh, Elly, it’s just it’s the ending.

Oh, God.

I’m reading this thing.

I’m on the edge of my toilet.

Argylle about to get the master file, defeat those SOBs, and then the big twist is it’s in London. Huh?

What? No. No, no, no.

Does he get the file or not?

What happens next?

It’s called a cliffhanger, Mother.

Elly, it’s called a copout.

And you can’t do this to your readers.

How about I fly in on Friday?

Make a weekend of it?

Brainstorm, work a little bit of our magic?

We’ll figure it out.

(sighs)

Friday’s fine. (sighs) I’ll just I’ll futz around with it until then.

You need to bring this story home, Elly.

Yeah, I think you have one more teeny tiny chapter to write.

It’ll be fun.

Hmm?

Bye.

You hear that, buddy?

One more chapter.

ARGYLLE: Miss Li,

the next flight to London doesn’t leave until morning.

Seeing as I have time to kill,

I thought…

Thought what?

That I’d stay here?

Enjoy the fireworks with you?

I’ll show you fireworks.

No.

God, that was bad.

You’re better than this, Elly.

Okay.

(sighs)

What about you, Alfie?

Any thoughts?

Anything?

(train horn blows)

(phone rings)

ELLY: Hey, Mom.

(over phone): Hi, dear.

Just wanna make sure you’re okay.

I know how stressed you get with work and–

CONDUCTOR: Tickets, please. Tickets.

Wait, Elly.

Are you on a train?

Surprise.

I figured I’d just come down to the city to see you.

Well, your father will be so excited to see you.

And dear little Alfie, of course.

We’ll take you out for a nice dinner.

Maybe you’ll even meet someone while you’re here, who knows?

As appealing as that sounds, Mother, I am in a relationship.

You are?

With who?

A relationship with my work.

Oh.

With Argylle.

Oh, it kills me, Elly.

What is the point of success if you have no one to enjoy it with?

There’s a reason I write about spies, not romance, Mother.

It’s less complicated.

Oh, what’s so complicated…

Uh, yeah.

…about falling in love, Elly?

I–I’ll, uh, I’ll call you when I get in, yeah?

Love you. Bye.

Hi.

Uh, sorry to disturb. Is this seat taken?

(softly): Is that seat taken?

Mmhmm.

Yes. Yes, um, unfortunately, it is.

That’s a shame.

(chuckles)

(sighs)

(groans)

(sighs)

I’m sorry, no. No. That seat is taken.

Hmm.

He got up, but a man was, um–w– is sitting there.

That’s fine. If he comes back, I’ll just get up.

(gasps) Whoa! Hey! There’s a cat in there.

This cat’s supposed to be in a hat, not in a backpack.

Look at this.

What are you doing, fur monster? Far out.

Oh, I love cats.

(purring)

What–what’s his name?

Uh. Alfie.

Excuse me. (grunts)

Alfie boy. Ooh, yeah.

Is enough oxygen in there?

Yes, of course.

I’ll leave you alone. You wanna be left alone.

I understand.

(clears throat)

Have you read this?

Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah?

Okay.

I get it. Okay.

(purring)

(train whistle blaring)

(mutters)

Wait

Excuse me.

Oh, my God. Are you Is this

You’re Elly freaking Conway.

Far out!

(chuckles)

How about that?

I am such a fan, and this is honest to God your best yet.

I’m not just saying that. I’m not.

How do you do it?

Book after book, you just crank ’em out, man.

You know, when you’re passionate about what you do…

You never work a day in your life.

Ain’t that the truth?

We’re both lucky that way, you and I.

Oh, yeah? What is it you do?

Espionage.

Right.

“The greater the spy, the bigger the lie.”

Hmm. That’s cheeky.

(sighs) Oh, not what you expected

a spy to look like, huh?

Well, yeah, in fairness, that is just about the only thing your books get wrong.

A male model in a bespoke Nehru jacket with a stupid haircut tends to stand out on a train, as opposed to everyone else in this car.

Them you don’t notice.

Have I lost you?

You all right?

Mmm…

No, I’m fine.

You know, I meant it when I said I was a fan.

But the next fan that comes over, he’s not just dropping by for a selfie, if you catch my drift.

He’s one of them.

Now, I realize this may be… hard to believe, but by the time I’ve broken his wrists… and his pistol falls into your lap, perhaps we will have built up a little trust with one another… and you’ll be able to accept two key realities.

Reality one, you are in grave danger.

Reality… two, when I say it’s time, it would really be beneficial for you to hold on to me as tight as you can. I’m talking… bearhuglikeyou’ve neverheldanyonebefore tight.

You understand?

You dig what I’m saying?

I am, uh, so sorry.

Uh, Miss Conway… (chuckles)

…would you mind, uh, signing my book?

We’re really gonna play this game?

Uh, yeah.

Um… (clicks tongue) …do you have a pen?

It’s embarrassing.

Yeah. Yeah, yeah. Yeah.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Whoa.

Okay, it’s me. It’s just me.

Remember the guy on the train? The kung fu

With the beard?

I shaved.

The guy from the train. Yeah, remember?

I know, I know, I know.

The lar

I recognize you.

(sighs) I’m sorry, I’m being rude. II apologize.

We haven’t been formally introduced.

My name’s Aidan. Aidan Wilde.

No, no, no! Stay back.

Okay. Relax.

Where’s my cat?

Alfie’s right over there

in the kitchen eating mercuryfree tuna.

Just like Mom feeds him.

He’s fine. You’re not.

You’re in big, big trouble.

ELLY: You…

You have cameras in my house?

You’re not a spy. You’re a pervert.

No, not a pervert. A spy.

I’m a spy, doing my job. I’m not a pervert.

That’s the bad guys’ feed that we’re tapped into.

Well, then, who who are these people?

You see that guy right there?

You remember him from the train?

His name’s Carlos.

He works for the Division,

the reallife version of those badguy spies in your books.

And the head honcho. He’s called Director Ritter.

Do I need to remind you what is at stake here?

What would happen

if that turncoat son of a bitch masquerading as an agent

were to recover our master file before we do?

I’ll find her. You have my word.

Deputy Director,

is that like when you gave me your word

Wilde would never get within a hundred miles from her?

We can still contain this, sir.

I’m overwhelmed with confidence.

ELLY: No, this doesn’t make sense.

Why would the Division care about me?

Because you’re a goddamn fortune teller, Elly.

I mean, come on.

Doesn’t take a genius to imagine a covert intel organization

the world doesn’t know about.

It sure as shit does to predict they’d go rogue.

Yeah.

Somehow, you wrote a story

that’s still unfolding as we speak. Book five.

You read book five?

Oh, yeah.

The bad guys too.

The Division has read book five?

The Division doesn’t miss a single keystroke of yours, Elly.

But your new manuscript kicked a hornet’s nest

you didn’t even know existed.

That’s why the Division wants you,

and once they have you,

they’re never gonna let you go, or worse.

Much, much worse.

Oh, Clementine.

You’re my only comfort.

Did you know that Clementine was my grandfather’s?

Yeah.

Ah.

He named it after his mother.

Oh, boy.

He was a very strict man.

But I always found him reasonable.

(chuckles)

And he had a policy.

He would only kill if it was absolutely necessary…

…for food

or to vanquish an enemy

or to eliminate an incompetent imbecile.

Mistakes were made. It won’t happen again.

Oh, I know it won’t.

(chuckles)

Of that I’m certain.

This isn’t happening.

Yeah, it is. It’s definitely happening.

But if you want a way out, if you want your life back,

I can help you.

I’m the good guy here.

But you gotta help me first.

What exactly is it you need me to do?

AIDAN: I’ll tell you on the way.

(sneezes) Goddamn, cats!

Had to bring your cat, man.

I thought you said you loved cats.

You have a hankie or a pocket square?

What, do you have allergies or something?

(blows) Never mind. It’s fine.

You lied.

You lied about liking cats.

Yeah.

How am I supposed to trust you now?

I’m a spy. Spies lie.

It’s part of the gig.

That and killing people.

Well, that’s really reassuring.

Okay, you want truth? Here’s truth.

What you wrote in your new manuscript actually happened.

But it wasn’t Argylle. It was me.

I brought in this hacker.

I hired this scumbag called Bakunin

to steal the Division’s master file.

Yeah, I’ve got all the dirt on ’em.

Everyone you asked for.

Ritter, Carlos.

I got proof of bombings,

election fraud, radioactive poisonings.

I mean, these lot make Darth Vader

look like Mary Poppins.

I’ve put your precious master file on a flash drive.

And I reckon the Division will give me a lot more

not to give this silver bullet to you.

So, the price just tripled.

We still got a deal?

(Aidan sighs over phone)

AIDAN: Yeah, okay, Bakunin, we got a deal.

Yeah, I thought so.

Spasibo.

The master file was my silver bullet

to bring the Division down,

the proof I was gonna use to expose them.

But when I went to London to meet Bakunin…

(sighs) …scumbag didn’t show.

So now the bad guys and I are racing to find him.

And we both think that your fantastic imagination

is the key.

So where is he now?

No, no, no, no. You can’t expect me

to know the answer to that.

Why not?

Just tell me what happens in the next chapter.

What you’re asking me to do takes months of research.

Years.

Reading, interviewing,

memorizing maps, getting to know a city.

I’ve never even been to London before.

Well, great.

Let’s start there. Yes. Tada.

I don’t do planes. (stammers)

I met you on a train for a reason.

AIDAN: The chances of you dying in a plane crash

are, like, one in 11 million.

Chances if you stay here

and let the Division find you, not so good.

Right now, that plane is your best friend.

What do you say?

I can’t do this.

(breathes deeply, exhales) Breathe. Breathe with me.

(breathing deeply)

AIDAN: Mmm, delicious.

More champagne, sir?

Oh, no, I couldn’t.

Okay. Twist my arm.

How about this plane, huh?

I’ve never been on a plane before, so

Well, this is one hell of a way to pop that cherry.

You know what I mean?

(P.A. system chimes)

PILOT (over P.A.): This is your captain speaking.

Please fasten your seat belts for takeoff.

Yeah, like this is gonna help us if we crash. (chuckles)

(jet engines whirring)

Uh, you okay?

It’s a It’s a tapping exercise.

It’s meant to bring my stress response under control.

It’s what Army Rangers do.

(engine rumbles)

(whimpering): Oh, God.

You ever try alcohol?

It helps.

No. (breathes shakily)

Hey, look at me. Hey!

Look at me.

One of my first Division ops, I’m in Algeria

cornered in a Sahrawi refugee camp

literally at the base of Mount “Tachat.”

No, n Taha Tahat.

It’s pronounced Tahat.

It’s “Tachat.” (stammers) It’s a Isn’t it a “cha”?

No, no, no. There’s no C. It’s Tahat.

It’s It’s (sighs) It’s

It’s just Mount Tahat, okay?

Okay.

Now I start freescaling this sucker.

I’m no mountain climber, so I know any minute

I’m gonna just, wham, freefall a few hundred feet per second.

Burst like a water balloon on impact.

So what did I do?

I stopped worrying about the 10,000foot rock face above me,

and I worked the threefoot space in front of me.

(exhales deeply)

So, when you feel that fear, remember…

to focus on the only thing that’s real.

What’s right in front of you.

(sighs)

Look at that.

(exhales sharply)

(chuckles) We’re flying. (sighs)

Yeah.

We’re flying.

Thank you.

You bet.

(Aidan sneezes, groans)

AIDAN: Oh, God.

Had to bring the cat.

What did you expect me to do?

Leave him to fend for himself?

Come on.

He’d be fine.

Cat ladies always die alone.

(sighs)

The cats figure it out.

I am not a cat lady. I’m not.

(Aidan sniffles)

And what’s your problem with my cat, exactly?

He’s really cute. He’s cuddly.

He’s loyal. He’s kind.

Oh, please.

You suddenly drop dead, that cat’s

chewing your ears off within 48 hours max.

Which, with you around, gets more likely by the minute.

AIDAN: This is the spot.

ELLY: The Albert Memorial.

Wow.

I showed up right on time.

Bakunin never called.

ELLY: Mmm.

The question is, what happened?

It’s a good question.

Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah, what happened?

It’s not a rhetorical question.

What happened?

I can’t just poof come up with the answer.

Sure you can.

End of book five, Argylle was on his way

to meet a hacker in London, right?

So you just write one more chapter

and tell me what happens next.

No.

This is not my process.

Well, we’re in a public park being pursued by assassins

hunting you on behalf of the most dangerous

spy organization on Earth,

so unless you have a better idea,

perhaps you could compromise.

Okay, let’s find a seat.

DIVISION AGENT: Sir, we’ve found them.

They’re at the Albert Memorial in Hyde Park.

This is live right now.

One of her fans is live streaming her.

FAN: That’s definitely her. It’s Elly Conway.

(chuckles) Carlos.

Yes, sir?

Deploy a local team.

I want all UK assets repositioned

and fixed on them now.

Get me the audio. I wanna hear this.

Digital lipread activated.

AIDAN: How are we doing there, boss?

ELLY: Please. Please, just don’t rush me.

Gotta think.

He’s getting her to write the next chapter.

It’s not War and Peace, you know?

We just need a chapter.

Maybe a couple of pages.

As Argylle arrived at the rendezvous point…

…he realized…

So, what, is this guy just a noshow?

Why would he give me the phone not to call? Unless…

The phone is the message.

Oh, there. Look. (grunts)

Why put a $2,200 encryption chip in a $20 disposable phone?

He’s trying to tell us how to…

…find him.

Could I see the phone?

You mean the flip phone? The burner?

Yeah. We need to open it up.

If I’m right, Bakunin could have fitted it

with an encryption CPU.

Sure.

Where is it?

Threw it out.

You don’t have it?

You threw it out?

That was a clue.

Ran out of juice. It’s a burner.

What kind of spy are you?

Clearly, I’m not working with Agent Argylle here.

With this chip, in theory,

could you make endtoend encrypted calls?

In theory, but the person on the other end

would have to have a matching…

…matching DiSEqC satellite dish. That’s it.

You heard them. DiSEqC database.

He picked the chip to lead us to his satellite.

We find the satellite, we find Bakunin.

(sighs) The question is…

How do we find a list

of operational DiSEqC satellites in…

…in the UK?

(sighs, inhales deeply)

Watch the master at work.

You know how to do that?

Keira did teach me a thing or two, you know?

So, I’m just gonna backdoor my way into the DiSEqC data…

…base.

Every satellite they sell would have to be registered with them.

If we don’t crack this before they do,

heads will roll.

Oh, look at this. Metasploit firewall.

That’s a Metasploit file.

Yeah, I can crack it.

Just hold on.

Well?

I can crack it. Hold on.

Challenge accepted.

Almost there.

Almost there.

There.

I’m in.

I’m in.

I’m in.

Like to see Argylle do that.

I’d like to see you try doing that. (chuckles)

So, what do we have here? How many…

…satellite locations are there?

A lot. That’sthat’s ninety…

…six to be precise.

Shit.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

But he would have picked this location,

the Albert Memorial, for a reason.

(sighs)

What’s the…

…closest one to here?

Well, then you’re looking for this puppy right here.

AAnd that that’s the absolute closest address…

…to the Memorial?

Yes, ma’am.

Yes, sir.

Coburg Street.

Coburg Street.

As in Prince Albert Saxe…

…Coburg. I…

…think we’ve found…

…our guy.

Let’s hope you’re right.

ELLY: Writer’s intuition.

(doorbell ringing)

(sighs) No one’s home. What should we do?

Well, I am a spy, after all.

All right. Writer’s intuition, huh?

(chuckles)

Notice anything?

Yeah, Bakunin was loaded.

He wouldn’t live in a dump like this.

Team one, what’s your status?

We’re two miles out.

ELLY: No, it’s wallpaper over brick.

Does that seem normal to you?

Uh, whoever lived here had bad taste?

Can we Ca Let’s Let’s split.

What are you doing?

ELLY: Look, look, look. There’s a line.

This is a clue.

Look at this.

That’s Spackle. That’s plaster. Let’s go.

(sighs) This is something.

We got 95 more locations to check.

Come on, let’s get outta here.

No. No, no, no, no, no.

Justjust wait. Letlet me figure it out.

I know this is the place.

Okay, you’re gonna waste my time, I’ll waste your time.

You like to dance?

No.

I do. Yeah!

(hollow thump)

(thumping)

Hmm.

RITTER (on comms): Team leader, report.

TEAM LEADER: Sir, we’re one mile out.

(creaking, snapping)

Can you see anything?

Uh…

Uh, wait a second.

ELLY: It’s a lockbox.

You can, um, pick it.

(sighs) Yeah.

Yeah.

Great idea.

(gunshot)

(yelps, breathes heavily)

Will you please give me just, like, a little bit of warning

before you start shooting?

What’s wrong?

What happened to all the spy lockpicking expertise?

That one looked harder.

Hey! All right.

Whoa.

Now we’re talking.

What’s this?

Oh, this is a boat key.

How do you know that’s a boat key?

I live on a lake.

IP addresses, VPN IDs, dropsites.

It’s all encoded.

(gasps) This is the anarchist symbol.

It’s Bakunin’s namesake.

It’s after the 19thcentury Russian anarchist.

This is it. ThThis is Bakunin’s.

Shit. This is his logbook.

Yeah, and it could lead us to the master file. Look!

(chuckles) You were right.

Huh.

You nailed it.

I figured it out.

Nice going.

You figured it out.

Whoa.

I figured it out.

Can you figure this out?

“This too shall pass.”

No, III know.

But I sort of think this one might not pass as, um…

…easily.

Oh?

Uh, okay.

So, something I wrote in my new book,

something II made up,

got too close to something very real.

And because of it, a rogue spy agency

A real Directorate

suddenly thought I could help them recover this digital file

they’d been searching for, and so they came after me.

Hmm. Well… how did you get away, dear?

Hmm.

Oh, well, another spy saved me.

He He promised he could protect me

if I helped him track down that same file first.

He convinced me he was the good guy

until I found out he was not.

So, I swiped the only lead we had on this file and

(stammers) It’s like a hacker’s logbook or something.

And, um, came here and

Well, I just…

IIII just don’t know who to trust.

No, Mom, you don’t understand.

These people, they have eyes everywhere.

RUTH: Well, we can’t just do nothing.

No, you have to take it to the press.

That’s what you do. Take it to Anderson Cooper.

Someone like that, they can They I don’t know

Barry, wha Barry, what do you think?

Barry!

God.

Pay attention, dear.

(grunts, sighs)

What do you think?

II’m just happy that

that you made it here safe and sound

and that psychopath didn’t hurt you.

God forbid something happened to you,

I don’t know what your mother and I would do.

I think you’d manage just fine.

What’s happening?

ALFIE: You a wine drinker?

ELLY: Yeah, sometimes.

ALFIE: Mmm.

Pinot noir.

One of the oldest grapes there is.

Been around since the Roman Empire.

Grown all over the world.

But you know why the wine we make

tastes so distinctly different

from a pinot made in, say, Napa or Tuscany?

Mmmm.

Same grape.

The difference is where it’s been.

A summer heat wave gets you a more exotic, tropical flavor.

High elevation gives you a an acidic varietal and so on.

They’re products of their environment.

The terroir, as the French call it.

Can’t know what a grape is

till you know what it’s been through.

This is how the ancients fermented their wine.

when a French farmer stumbled upon the ruins

of vats like these buried on his property.

Why are we here?

Because, Elly Conway,

it’s time for you to meet the real Agent Argylle.

Those books you write?

Aidan told you they were predictions.

They’re memories of who you truly are.

Welcome back, Agent R. Kylle.

I wanna know everything.

ALFIE: So, we meet again, LaiMassey.

My old foe.

(chuckles)

RITTER: What is taking so goddamn long?

I put myself out there in the field to capture these images.

There are my results. Where’s yours?

Decrypting a LaiMassey scheme takes time, Mr. Director.

RITTER: No, no, no. But there is no time.

Everything hinges on this.

ELLY: Why all the lies?

I mean, why didn’t you just come out and tell me?

We had to let your memories come back

in their own time, naturally.

Otherwise, you could lose everything

that’s buried in there for good. (sighs)

What happened to me?

Okay.

Last time I saw you was

the morning you left to rendezvous with Bakunin

at the Albert Memorial.

It wasn’t me who went there.

It was you.

And you never came back.

We still don’t know what went wrong,

how things went south that day.

We just know that you turned up in a local ER in a coma.

A Jane Doe, found on the banks of the Thames.

Which is where the Division found you.

By the time I tracked you down,

they’d already moved you to a hospital in the States.

RITTER: Rachel, open your eyes.

There you go.

Do you remember me?

Do you know who you are?

AIDAN: You weren’t Rachel anymore.

You were a blank slate. (sighs)

Couldn’t remember a thing.

So the Division tried a different approach.

One day, a woman I knew as Dr. Margaret Vogler,

Chief of Psyops for the Division,

walked in with Ritter.

We’re your parents.

Mmm.

Your family.

You are Elly.

Conway.

A smalltown waitress who survived

a terrible skating accident.

We brought in a few things

so that you can remember who you are.

AIDAN: They laid it on real thick.

(chuckles)

(winding, chiming)

Look at this, your music box.

AIDAN: Brought you mementos handpicked by Vogler.

Visual triggers to remind you

of the life they wanted you to believe you’d led.

VOGLER: Iceskating award. That’s right.

RITTER: Mmm. And this.

Lights, please, dear.

Oh, yeah.

Remember.

AIDAN: Vogler’s work was MKUltra on steroids,

Manchurian Candidate type stuff.

VOGLER: Elly.

RITTER: Iceskating.

AIDAN: They brainwashed you, Elly.

It’s as simple as that.

Hey.

Dad. Mom.

AIDAN: Which left me with only one place to turn.

Alfie, the man who trained us.

He opened an investigation,

but without the master file as proof,

Ritter had him dismissed as a conspiracy theorist

and has been hunting him ever since.

With Alfie on the run and no one else left to stop them,

the Division set about the last part of their plan.

Now that you’re starting to remember who you are,

we thought it might be time to give you back your journal.

Yeah.

So you can finally write all the stories

that you’ve wanted to tell.

AIDAN: The journal that they gave you was a phony,

written by Dr. Vogler.

All she did was give you the building blocks of your life

with just enough distance from the truth

to protect the actual names, places, events.

Hoping to get a glimpse of your real memories

Crazy part is it worked.

You started to write a novelization of your real life.

We just had to sit back and watch it play out.

Book by book, you got closer and closer

until, last week,

you were on the verge of giving the Division

exactly what they needed to know.

At which point they were gonna (clicks tongue)

They’d kill me.

I wasn’t gonna let that happen.

Not on my watch.

Wait, so, you’ve been watching me for the last five years?

Yeah, I guess I have, but, you know, not in a creepy way.

Just because you forgot who you were…

…doesn’t mean I ever did.

I know you better than you know yourself, kid.

Who am I, Aidan?

Well,

once upon a time, there was a CIA operative,

just about the finest field agent Langley ever trained.

Which is why you were recruited by the Division.

And just like in your books, there was a real Wyatt.

(chuckles): You’re the real Wyatt?

You’re welcome.

Oh, I just I pictured Wyatt so much…

AIDAN: Bigger? Stronger? Yeah.

Mmm.

I guess that’s how your unconscious remembered me.

I’m flattered, I think.

There’s a real Keira too.

Look familiar?

Unfortunately, Vogler didn’t need to change

the way you described her in your books.

Because of what happened in Greece.

So Keira… actually

Well, then let’s get the hell out of here. (grunts)

Killed in action. Shot through the heart,

just the way you wrote it, by the real Legrange.

Book six, III was gonna bring her back, you know?

A reader had

emailed in this insane, brilliant idea for a twist.

More insane than all of this?

(sighs) Guess not.

Agents! Get yourselves down here!

LaiMassey just got its ass whipped

by me!

(laughs)

The data in Bakunin’s logbook

tells us he left the master file

with the Keeper of Secrets, Miss Saba AlBadr.

According to the Koran,

to keep another’s secret is a divinely mandated duty.

To divulge it, an unholy sin.

Miss AlBadr has taken that belief to a whole nother level.

Now, Bakunin left specific instructions

that the master file is to be retrieved by one person

and one person only:

the agent he was making the deal with

and an old acquaintance of the Keeper’s,

Rachel Kylle.

ELLY: No. No. No, no.

If the Keeper is expecting Rachel Kylle,

she will know something’s up when she meets me.

I get anxiety, I have panic attacks.

Uhuh, only because you’ve been

systematically conditioned to by Vogler.

(chuckles) Well, whatever they did to my head worked,

because I am not okay.

I can’t pull off aaa spy mission.

I can’t even look at him without seeing Argylle.

Yes, Argylle speaks to me. (chuckles)

And you know what? I find it kind of reassuring.

I mean, don’t you get it? I am losing my mind.

You are not losing your mind.

You are finding it.

Argylle is your subconscious

fighting to tell you who you really are.

AIDAN: Elly.

Elly.

If you can write Agent Argylle for five years,

you can be Rachel Kylle for one night.

You got this.

I know you do.

We can do it together.

Good.

Let’s get you two suited and booted.

And if you can’t remember the reality,
