:04:00
Why else would they
approach us this way?
:04:03
It's deniable
:04:04
The Soviets have done nothing
but lie to us
:04:05
This could just be more of the same
:04:07
That may be
why Kruschev's introducing this guy
:04:11
We're been burned by his usual players
in the formal channels
:04:14
so he brings in an honest broker
:04:16
That may be what they want us to think
:04:19
The truth is
:04:20
we don't really know
who Fomin speaks for
:04:23
It could be Kruschev
:04:24
It could be some faction
in the Politburo
:04:26
Or the KGB itself
:04:28
We just don't know
:04:30
By the way, Scali
your activities now fall under...
:04:33
the secrecy codicils
of the National Security Act
:04:35
Sorry, John
:04:37
No Pulitzer
:04:40
Mr. President, we haven't much time
:04:43
I'm scheduled to meet with him again
in three and a half hours
:04:46
So it seems the question of the day is
:04:48
is the offer legitimate?
:04:51
And if it is
:04:52
we can't afford to ignore it
:04:56
So, John...
:04:59
We'll have instructions for you
in a couple of hours
:05:03
Thank you
:05:06
Thank you
:05:10
We don't have much time
to play out back-channe
:05:18
Kenny
:05:22
I want you to get over
to your old stomping grounds...
:05:24
and go through everything
the FBI has on Fomin
:05:27
I need your best call
Is the guy legit
:05:29
and is he speaking for Kruschev?
:05:32
So what we've got here is this guy
:05:33
Alexander Feklisov
AKA Alexander Fomin
:05:36
delclared Consul to the Soviet Embassy
:05:39
but in reality the KGB Papa Spy
:05:42
An illustrious tour of duty
during the Great Patriotic War
:05:45
gets him on the Party fast track
:05:47
Various tours of duty in KGB
American postings
:05:52
He's an expert on us
:05:54
And that is all we got on Papa Spy
