Rachel and David present themselves as an ethnic German married couple from Argentina and Rachel plants herself as a patient at Vogel's obstetrics and gynaecology clinic. Both Stefan and David develop an attraction to Rachel, and Stefan reveals to her that David lost his entire family in the Holocaust. At her third appointment, Rachel injects Vogel with a sedative during an examination and induces the nurse (Vogel's wife) to believe Vogel suffered a heart attack. Stefan and David arrive dressed as ambulance crew and make off with the unconscious Vogel in an ambulance, barely ahead of the real ambulance team. Under cover of night, the trio attempt their exfiltration at Wollankstraße Station, on a rail line along the sector boundary between East and West Berlin, and next to a mail depot. However, as they prepare to load Vogel onto the train, Vogel suddenly awakens and sounds the horn of the stolen mail truck where he was being held, alerting East German guards to their presence. In the ensuing shootout, David sacrifices his chance to escape in order to collect a compromised Rachel, leaving the agents with no choice but to bring Vogel to their apartment and plan a new extraction.

The agents take turns monitoring Vogel, who attempts to psychologically humiliate and intimidate them. During one of David's shifts, he becomes violent after Vogel discusses the reasons why he believes that Jews had many weaknesses, making them an easy target. David breaks a plate over Vogel's head and repeatedly beats him only to be stopped by Stefan. In the next scene, while Rachel is in charge of the monitoring, Vogel manages to loosen his binds and ambushes Rachel with a shard from the broken plate, leaving her with a permanent scar on her face. He escapes into the night as the agents are left to assess their failure. Panicked and hoping to save face for both himself and for Israel, Stefan convinces Rachel and David to go along with the fiction that Vogel was killed. They agree to lie and use the cover story that Rachel shot and killed Vogel as he tried to flee.
