00:00So, what's up?
00:16In 1995, the UK embassy in Dhaka was bombed.
00:20Do you remember it?
00:21Yeah, I do.
00:23Actually, I was there when it happened.
00:26In Dhaka?
00:27Mm-hmm.
00:28It was the year before I joined.
00:30I was finding myself.
00:32Isn't India usually the choice for that sort of thing?
00:35Not if you're a rally enthusiast.
00:44The bombing was blamed on a nascent AQ cell, but there was never any claim.
00:48There were also rumours of Egyptian involvement.
00:51Why would the Egyptians want to bomb a British embassy?
00:53Theory was they wanted to expedite Western involvement in the war against terror.
00:58It's far-fetched, but 17 people died on that day.
01:01Five of them were British nationals.
01:03It's a can of worms I would take great pleasure in reopening.
01:06So why are we meeting here?
01:08I believe it's called old school.
01:10Is your source reliable?
01:11His information's usually good, but I'd recommend an extremely long spoon.
01:24Harry Pearce, how are you, old boy?
01:26Old boy? That's a little outmoded.
01:28Who's this serious-looking fellow?
01:30Lucas North, my section chief.
01:35I wasn't expecting company, but the more the merrier.
01:38What's the nature of your information on the Dakar bomb?
01:41Everything.
01:42How, why, and most importantly, who.
01:45In return for?
01:47Well, rather vulgarly, this is a fundraising venture,
01:50so half a million?
01:52That's not going to happen.
01:54I can live with that if you can.
01:56Give me something for leverage.
01:58You've been looking too far afield.
02:00What does that mean?
02:01That means that your bombers were British.
02:03British?
02:04It's impossible. It's been 15 years. We'd have heard something.
02:07Working for who?
02:09You go and talk to Daddy.
02:11There's no rush, except a week from now the price goes up.
02:14750 and so on and so forth.
02:16What now?
02:18Now I go to the Home Secretary with a begging bowl.
02:21Although, given the great efficiency drive,
02:23half a million pounds to expose a national disgrace might be a hard sell.
02:27I'll check out the Dakar file, see if there's anything I've overlooked.
02:30No, I don't want you tied up with that.
02:32I'll give it to Beth.
02:35I'll catch you up.
02:40What the hell are you playing at?
02:42Had to tell you I was well-connected.
02:44It's Harry Pearce.
02:46I've got to go.
02:48I've got to go.
02:50I've got to go.
02:52I've got to go.
02:54I've got to go.
02:56I've got to go.
02:58I've got to go.
03:00I've got to go.
03:02I thought I'd got you connected.
03:04It's Harry Pearce.
03:05I'm just trying to refocus your mind.
03:07Listen. If Harry starts digging into Dakar,
03:09life gets more difficult for all of us.
03:12I might even decide it makes sense to come clean
03:14and then where's your leverage?
03:16The last I heard she was staying with you.
03:18Leave Maya out of this.
03:21Drive.
03:28Hello?
03:29There's a problem.
04:32You wanted to see me?
04:55Yes.
04:56This came for you.
04:57By the Greek Embassy.
04:59We set up a forwarding address under your alias, standard procedure after an extraction.
05:05It's about the house you owned, with George.
05:13His family need to sell it and they want your permission.
05:20There's a letter in there, too.
05:27I'm sorry, Ruth, this must be...
05:41It's fine.
05:42I'll take care of it.
05:43Ruth, you're busy, we've got a walk-in downstairs who says he's got some information.
06:00Since when do we deal with walk-ins?
06:03He's not a civilian, he's the RIPA authorising officer for New Cross Council.
06:06He's a council snooper.
06:09All right, you do the paperwork.
06:15Keith Deary, New Cross Borough Council.
06:17Louisa Ramsey.
06:18If you say so.
06:19Well, I'm sure you don't go giving out your real names, do you?
06:23But then maybe I didn't give you my real name either, but I did, obviously.
06:27I'm told you have some information for us.
06:29Right, well, I don't know what they told you, but I'm an RIPA officer.
06:34That's the regulation.
06:35Investigatory Powers Act, yes, I know.
06:37You probably don't approve, but I can assure you that I don't authorise the use of covert
06:40techniques lightly.
06:41Mr Deary?
06:42Yes, yes, this morning I had calls to survey a young woman who was of interest to us.
06:47Why was she of interest to you?
06:51Well, we had reports that she was allowing her dog to foul public areas.
06:56Dog mess is actually a serious public health issue.
06:58I'm sure.
06:59Well, anyway, during the course of this surveillance, something odd happened.
07:02This woman took the envelope from her handbag, placed it inside a newspaper, put the newspaper
07:06on a bench and walked away.
07:07Well, that's quite obviously a dead drop.
07:08A dead drop?
07:09A message left by one agent to be secretly retrieved by another.
07:10That's a dead drop, isn't it?
07:11Yes.
07:12Yes, it is.
07:13So I took it upon myself to intercept this communique, and what do you think it said?
07:14What?
07:15Nothing.
07:16Nothing?
07:17The note was blank.
07:18Well, at least it appeared to be blank.
07:19Obviously, my first thought that it was some sort of invisible writing technique, you know,
07:20lemon juice and so forth.
07:21So I decided to apply some heat to the note.
07:22And what did it say?
07:23Nothing.
07:24Nothing?
07:25Nothing.
07:26Nothing.
07:27Nothing.
07:28Nothing.
07:29Nothing.
07:30Nothing.
07:31Nothing.
07:32Nothing.
07:33Nothing.
07:34Nothing.
07:35So I decided to apply some heat to the note in the hope that it actually might reveal a
07:36message.
07:37Did it?
07:38It did.
07:39Less fortunately, it appeared that the note was made of some unusually flammable material.
07:40But I think you can see that there are one or two words that are clearly visible.
07:41Jet and archon.
07:42I wonder if that's some sort of military reference.
07:43Jet's archon.
07:44Archon.
07:45Archon.
07:46Archon.
07:47Archon.
07:48Archon.
07:49Archon.
07:50Archon.
07:51Archon.
07:52Archon.
07:53Archon.
07:54Archon.
07:55Archon.
07:56Archon.
07:57Archon.
07:58Archon.
07:59Archon.
08:00Archon.
08:01Archon.
08:02Archon.
08:03Archon.
08:04Jet's archon.
08:11I ran a background check on our walk-in.
08:13It's interesting, to say the least.
08:16Keith Deary.
08:17First applied to MI5 in 2002.
08:20Promising scores on the initial round.
08:22But at the time he applied, he'd recently suffered a bereavement.
08:25His wife had died.
08:26His application was rejected on the grounds that he was psychologically unfit.
08:30He didn't tell me any of this.
08:32Reapplied.
08:332006, 7 and 8.
08:35All applications turned down on the same grounds.
08:37He's got a history of clinical depression.
08:40And check this out.
08:41He was admitted to hospital March last year.
08:43Suspected suicide attempt.
08:45That's what we in the trade call an unreliable source.
08:48Why, did he lose his wife?
08:50Eight years ago.
08:51What's the time limit on grief?
08:53Not for normal people.
08:54Not for us.
09:03Come on.
09:26You call him a bluff, then?
09:29To what bluff do you refer?
09:32Sorry, I thought you were someone else.
09:34I see.
09:35But perhaps your question applies equally to us.
09:38Perhaps you are bluffing all sides in this arrangement.
09:42Your English is really coming on here, mate.
09:49I'm not in the mood for your jokes, Mr Edwards.
09:52Where's Albany?
09:54We're close. It's just a matter of time.
09:56You've had time.
09:58If you can't deliver it, we'll find someone who can.
10:02Now you're the one who's bluffing.
10:04It's my business to know every piece on the chessboard.
10:08The woman's a great beauty.
10:10Hard for any man to resist her.
10:13Bring us Albany.
10:15Bring it today,
10:17or I'll have my colleague here
10:19rape her
10:20and cut off her head.
10:23Some new information has come to light on the Dakar bombing in 1995.
10:28I want you to collate everything we have on it.
10:30I'll look into it.
10:31Yes. No, just collate the information and give it to Beth.
10:35Don't you need an analyst on this?
10:37Ruth, our personal history does not mean you can question everything I ask you to do.
10:42No, but it doesn't mean you can freeze me out, either.
10:44You can do it.
10:45I'm not going to do it.
10:47I'm not going to do it.
10:50You conducted unauthorised surveillance on a fellow officer.
10:52Now forgive me if I suffer a slight loss of confidence in your judgement.
10:55What I did was unethical.
10:56But it doesn't mean I'm wrong about Lucas.
11:03I didn't say you were.
11:05But it's business as usual.
11:06Ruth, look, neither of us are what you would call emotionally forthright.
11:11But this morning,
11:13when I saw how you reacted to that letter,
11:16a lot of things suddenly made sense.
11:20I think you still blame me for George.
11:27For not protecting the boy.
11:31I think you believe that had it come to a choice,
11:34I would have let you die, too.
11:41I don't see what this has to do with Lucas.
11:43I don't see what this has to do with Lucas.
11:45Maybe you feel I'm protecting him in a way I failed to protect you.
11:50And maybe that...
11:53is making you overzealous.
11:56I'll deal with Lucas, Ruth.
12:02For the record, it's not true.
12:05I'd do the same for you a thousand times over.
12:09And you'd be wrong.
12:13I'm sorry.
12:25Lucas!
12:38Yes?
12:39Hello?
12:40Is anyone there? Hello?
12:56Yeah, that's right, Mrs Wynne-Jones.
12:59She's on a regular prescription of cyclosporine.
13:01I just need to know when and where she last collected it.
13:06And do you have a temporary address for her?
13:10No.
13:15I could never believe that Lucas would betray his own country.
13:19No-one's suggesting that.
13:21But if Lucas is in trouble, we need to be ready to help.
13:24Find out why he was in Dakar, Beth.
13:35I'm busy.
13:36I need to talk to you while you get in the car.
13:38I don't think that's a good idea.
13:40There are things you need to know about me.
13:43About John.
13:44What things, Michael?
13:46Oh, come on. You really don't have any questions about what we do?
13:49What is it, so you're not to ask?
13:51Please, just give me a moment.
13:55Look, I know that I've hurt you, Michael, and I am so sorry.
13:58I am, but I have made my choice.
14:00Am I?
14:02You don't know the meaning of the word hurt.
14:05My name's not Michael. It's Vaughn.
14:07And John doesn't work for some security firm.
14:09He works for MI5.
14:10What are you talking about?
14:11He's a spy.
14:13Because of him, your life's in danger.
14:15I don't know what you're talking about.
14:17I don't know what you're talking about.
14:19I don't know what you're talking about.
14:21I don't know what you're talking about.
14:23Because of him, your life's in danger.
14:32I'm sorry. I didn't mean to scare you.
14:35This is not appropriate.
14:36To approach me in public like this.
14:38I know, and I apologise, and I would never do such a thing normally,
14:41except I found out something else.
14:42Mr Derry.
14:43Except that I went to her house,
14:45the woman who left the dead drop, and she's gone.
14:47With three months to go on the lease.
14:49Just upped and left without telling the landlady.
14:51Now what do you make of that?
14:52Nothing.
14:53You're making connections where there aren't any.
14:55Well, you don't think it's odd?
14:57Lots of things are odd.
14:58Lots of people too.
14:59Now, if you'll excuse me.
15:01Hey, just...
15:02Just stop.
15:03Sorry, for a second.
15:04I mean, what about the note?
15:06The words on the note?
15:08Passed it through GCHQ.
15:10No matches.
15:11So that's that?
15:13We have a huge amount of intel every day,
15:16and we don't have the resources...
15:17No, no, no, no, no, no.
15:18Miss, whatever your name is, look, I work for the council.
15:20I mean, I know a fob off when I hear one,
15:22and that's a fob off.
15:23Come with me to the woman's house.
15:25I mean, she might have left something.
15:28What is it that you want, Mr Deary?
15:31That I want?
15:33I know about you.
15:35I know that you've applied to us on four separate occasions,
15:37and that each time you've been turned down
15:39on the grounds that you're psychologically unfit.
15:41You've got a history of depression and mental health problems.
15:44Is that not true?
15:45I had a few problems after my wife died, but I'm not...
15:47They're not going to let you in.
15:50If that's what this is about.
15:52Sounds like you've spent more time investigating me than the note.
15:56Don't approach me in public again.
15:58If you do, I'll report you.
15:59Do you understand?
16:00Listen!
16:05I miss my wife.
16:08But that doesn't make me wrong about this.
16:21I've just been door-stepped by our friend from the council.
16:24Deary?
16:25Yeah, I feel bad about it.
16:26What, he door-stepped you and you feel bad about it?
16:28No, I was cruel to him.
16:29You're too soft, Evershed.
16:30No, isn't that?
16:31I mean, we've had cranks before,
16:33but the messages are always cod-Russian or Islamic.
16:36Those words look French to me.
16:37And if he's trying to impress us,
16:39then why bring us an incinerated note?
16:41Look, personally, I wouldn't pursue it,
16:43but your instincts are good.
16:45You should follow it up.
16:46I don't suppose you're up for some facial recognition?
16:48I'd love to, but I'm about to meet my first mafia boss.
16:51They just pulled him off a boat in the Thames
16:53with about 50 million in laundered euros.
16:55I'm going to pick him up.
16:56I'll start it.
17:07You're driving.
17:19This isn't convenient.
17:21We're out of time, John.
17:23Listen, I'm doing everything I can,
17:27but I've hit a brick wall,
17:29and we need to work together to get out of this.
17:33I'm sorry to hear you say that,
17:35but the Seminole will be sorrier.
17:41I'm sorry.
17:42I'm sorry.
17:43I'm sorry.
17:44I'm sorry.
17:45I'm sorry.
17:46I'm sorry.
17:48I'm sorry.
17:50Hello?
17:51Maya.
17:52John.
17:53John, he's got a gun.
17:55Maya, listen to me.
17:56John, he says that you're a spy. Is that true?
18:00You know these tactics are repulsively crude to me,
18:02but this is what you brought us to.
18:04You're not going to hurt her.
18:06I won't have to.
18:07It's the Chinese, John.
18:09I'm working for the Chinese.
18:10I'm taking you to them.
18:12They'll decide what happens.
18:14Bourne.
18:16Please don't do that.
18:17Finish this, now, for all our sakes.
18:46This is from the files of a fitness club in Dakar in 1995.
18:49Look at the name.
18:55Tarek, where's Lupus?
18:56I don't know.
18:57He just left.
19:16Michael, what are you going to do?
19:19Please, tell me.
19:20What are you going to do, Michael, please?
19:23What am I going to do?
19:26Maya.
19:28If John had done what he was supposed to do,
19:30you wouldn't be in danger.
19:31I'm trying to protect you.
19:32You said that you were going to give me to someone,
19:34to the Chinese.
19:36I had to say that.
19:37It's complicated.
19:39Maya, you're all right.
19:43You're safe with me.
19:46I promise.
19:48How long does it take?
19:49It varies.
19:52What's this?
19:54Dead drop, supposedly.
19:55Cool.
20:00You don't see that much.
20:02Paper?
20:03It's not paper.
20:04It's nitrocellulose.
20:05It goes up in the flesh.
20:06Proper spy stuff, that.
20:08Is it hard to get hold of?
20:09Well, they don't sell it in Rymans.
20:12When Dimitri gets back, time to call me.
20:14Where are you going?
20:15I see a man from the council.
20:25John.
20:26All right, everyone, you win.
20:28What does that mean?
20:29I was bluffing. I've got the file.
20:32I don't believe you.
20:33I don't see that you've got a choice.
20:35Where do we meet?
20:39Southwark Park.
20:44All right.
21:08Where is she?
21:10She's safe.
21:11Give me Albany and I'll have her released.
21:13Not here.
21:14John, the whole purpose of meeting in a public place
21:16is so that you can't torture me into telling you where she is.
21:19Stop taking me for an idiot.
21:21You're working with the Chinese. I say you qualify.
21:24They've certainly got better at surveillance.
21:26I know my apartment's bugged, and the car,
21:28but I'm damned if I can find them.
21:31What did you expect?
21:33I wouldn't get too smug.
21:35Looks like we could both do with some pest control.
21:40The Chinese are watching both of us.
21:44It's funny.
21:46It's hard for me to see, though.
21:48I must be getting old.
21:51You're always good at manipulating people, Vaughan,
21:53but there's one thing that you never accounted for.
21:57What's that?
21:58Passion.
22:02Don't make a fuss.
22:03I mean, she's away from the main artery.
22:04Any sudden movement would be very bad for you.
22:09Now,
22:11tell me where she is.
22:14Beth.
22:17Harry.
22:18Beth, where are you?
22:19I followed Lucas to a park.
22:21He's met someone.
22:22I'm going to send backup.
22:23Tell me where you are.
22:25John, listen, I...
22:27You've overplayed your hand, Vaughan.
22:29Maya means more to me than my job or my reputation.
22:32Now tell me
22:33where she is.
22:34You don't understand. I'm trying to protect her.
22:37By handing her over to the Chinese?
22:39She's not with the Chinese.
22:40But they're going to kill her if we don't...
22:43Where is she?
22:46She's...
22:47Where?
22:48She's in a safe house, but they don't know about it.
22:56Something's happened.
22:57I'm going in.
22:58Beth, no.
23:02Vaughan!
23:03Vaughan!
23:04No!
23:05Lucas!
23:06Beth, get out of the way!
23:07Lucas, put the gun down!
23:08Get out of the way!
23:09I said put the gun down!
23:15You idiot!
23:16You have no idea what you've done!
23:18Tell me.
23:19Tell me what I've done.
23:20Whatever's going on, we want to help.
23:23Harry will help you like he helped me.
23:25Now please, put the gun down.
23:32Lucas, you have to...
23:33You have to...
23:39You won't kill me, I know you won't.
23:41You don't know anything about me.
23:43Maybe not.
23:45But I've seen you risk your life to save others.
23:49And I believe in you.
23:51We all do.
24:03We all do.
24:33Mr. Deary!
25:04Mr. Deary?
25:23Michael?
25:29Mr. Deary?
25:33Mr. Deary?
25:34Michael?
26:04All right, I'll see you in a bit.
26:24Beth.
26:31If you wouldn't mind waiting outside.
26:33All right.
26:44One Lucas North in Dakar I can accept.
26:47Two is stretching credibility.
26:50Who is he, Lucas?
26:53Listen, Harry, I know this looks suspicious.
26:56Somewhat.
26:58Let me be clear.
27:01The Dakar bombing happened on my watch.
27:0317 people were killed on that day
27:05and for 15 years they've gone without justice.
27:08So you do not leave this room until you explain
27:10the full extent of your involvement in that atrocity.
27:13Do you understand?
27:28My name isn't Lucas North.
27:33My name's John Aitman.
27:38Damn you!
27:45God knows I've had my share of betrayal, but not you.
27:50I'm sorry.
27:54Why were you in Dakar?
27:57At university I fell in with a guy
28:01that fancied himself as a big-time drugs dealer.
28:04He was shipping cannabis from Dakar to Hamburg.
28:09He asked me to go with him.
28:10Which you did.
28:12Which I did.
28:14Of course, idiots that we were, we got caught.
28:16Luckily the military police were open to persuasion.
28:20They took the drugs, they just took everything.
28:23I was stranded in Dakar with no ticket home, no passport.
28:29I needed to pay my way back.
28:32And I'd done some creepier work in the UK,
28:35so I got a job in a casino.
28:37Place your bets.
28:38And that's where I met Vaughan Edwards.
28:49He was a regular.
28:50No more bets.
28:51He said he worked in the export business.
28:54He was always lucky.
28:58Bet number nine.
29:06It's for you.
29:09He seemed to have everything.
29:11I admit I was impressed.
29:17We met by chance, a few times.
29:22At least I thought it was by chance.
29:25John, join me.
29:30He took an interest in me.
29:33Eventually he told me what he really did.
29:36What governments say and what they do are two different things.
29:39They pay ransoms when they have to, they negotiate with terrorists.
29:43That's where I come in.
29:45Small, deniable errands for the British government.
29:47He asked me if I wanted in.
29:49I said yes.
29:51What sort of errands did you run for Vaughan?
29:54Career work, mostly.
29:56Taking briefcases to people, places.
30:02I never asked what was in them.
30:05It was exciting at first and very well paid.
30:10You had no qualms about what you might be doing.
30:13Vaughan told me that we were working indirectly for the UK government.
30:18I believed him.
30:19It suited you to believe him.
30:24Yeah, maybe.
30:28In those days my morality was fluid.
30:39Then there was Lucas North.
30:41Then there was Lucas North.
30:44He worked in the casino bar.
30:48He was the only other Brit on the staff.
30:52I think he'd had a tough life, but he was clever.
30:55Funny.
30:57And we became friends.
31:02I thought he was just another drifter, but he was in Dakar for a reason.
31:08Which was?
31:11Spies.
31:13Spies?
31:14Yeah, spies.
31:17Places crawling with them.
31:20If Graham Greene was writing today, he'd be writing about Dakar.
31:24That's why I'm here.
31:26I want to get the smell of it.
31:29Why? What was the interest?
31:31Vaughan.
31:33He knew all about Vaughan.
31:35All about Vaughan. He knew he was a mercenary.
31:37He told me to walk away from him. I didn't want to hear that.
31:39You're evading the question.
31:40Why was he so interested in the intelligence community?
31:46Because he was going to join MI5.
31:51Please tell me this isn't going where I think it's going.
31:55He'd already got through the first round.
31:56All the background checks were clear.
31:59The only thing left was the face-to-face.
32:05He really loved his country, you know.
32:10There's a laugh at him for that.
32:13He already knew something, but it took me 15 years to find out.
32:17So we should think this is uncool, John, but...
32:22You have to love something greater than yourself.
32:25God, country, ideal.
32:28It doesn't matter what.
32:30It's what makes us human.
32:32I've made more than enough money.
32:35I was all ready to come back to the UK.
32:37But Vaughan asked me to do one more job.
32:42It's more money than all the others combined.
32:45You trust me with this?
32:48Yeah.
32:50What was the job?
32:54Harry, what was the job?
33:01To take a package.
33:13To deliver a package.
33:20To the British Embassy in Dagenham.
33:32To the British Embassy in Dagenham.
33:50I saw them.
33:53Walking out of the dust like ghosts.
34:02You don't know what it's like...
34:03Don't you dare feel sorry for yourself.
34:0617 people were massacred on that day.
34:08Look at the faces of the people you killed.
34:10Mothers, fathers, daughters, and all the hundreds of people around them.
34:13Lives ruined.
34:14You sit there whining about your conscience.
34:16Conscience is a bloody luxury.
34:17It means you're alive.
34:18You think I don't know that?
34:19How do you think you get through eight years in a Russian prison?
34:21Eight years of beatings, torture, humiliation.
34:23How do you think you bear the simple physical pain of it?
34:25You bear it because you don't want to.
34:27You don't want to.
34:28How do you think you bear the simple physical pain of it?
34:30You bear it because you deserve it.
34:34So Vaughan Edwards is behind this.
34:35He set you up.
34:38Truthfully, I don't know.
34:40I went back to the hotel.
34:41I accused him of that.
34:42He denied it.
34:43He said that we'd both been set up.
34:44By who?
34:45Who was he working for?
34:46He said he didn't know.
34:47Come on.
34:48He said nobody knew.
34:49He said that we were just at the end of a chain of people
34:51so far from the source that we could never be traced.
34:53Absolute deniability.
34:54And you believe that?
34:55A man like Vaughan, I don't think he asks that many questions.
34:57Well, he's not alone in that, is he?
35:01So, you've been set up.
35:04You're supposedly horrified at what you've done.
35:06Why didn't you turn yourself in?
35:07Vaughan was scared.
35:08Don't tell me about Vaughan.
35:09Tell me about yourself.
35:10He was really scared.
35:11He said whoever had set us up would want to cover their tracks.
35:13Eliminate us.
35:14Even if we were taken into custody, they would get to us.
35:16We'd never live to stand trial.
35:17Then he must have known who was behind it.
35:19I don't know.
35:20That's what he told me.
35:21All I know is we had to get out of Dakar and quickly.
35:23There was a boat leaving for Europe in a couple of hours.
35:25He said that we would be on that boat and he would get me a passport,
35:27whatever it took.
35:28And what did it take?
35:33He killed Lucas North for a passport for you.
35:43It all happened so quickly.
35:46I told Lucas that I would just borrow the passport,
35:48that I would send it back to him,
35:50or that he could report it stolen.
35:53But he wouldn't do it.
35:56And at that moment, I was ready to walk away.
36:00I knew what he wanted from his life.
36:01He was going to join MI5.
36:02He couldn't get involved in this.
36:06I explained that to Vaughan.
36:11That's when he shot him, Harry.
36:16Vaughan was convinced that he would tell everything that he knew.
36:22And if I hadn't said, he might still be alive.
36:26He killed your friend and you did nothing.
36:28What do you want me to say, Harry? I'm just trying to be honest with you.
36:31Yes, I'd like to tell you that I felt something as normal as anger,
36:34that some sudden surge of nobility meant that I didn't take that passport,
36:39I didn't go to the docks and I didn't get on that boat and run for my miserable life.
36:47I'd like to say anything that would take that look of utter contempt out of your eyes,
36:50so please, don't tempt me.
36:56Michael, you need to get to a hospital.
37:01I'm all right.
37:05You know what they say?
37:06It isn't when the knife goes in that the damage is done.
37:08It's when they take it out.
37:10Let me take a look at you, please.
37:12You're losing a lot of blood.
37:15You know, it's funny.
37:17I'm wondering if I'm going to die.
37:20I'm not going to die.
37:22You know, it's funny.
37:24I'm wondering if you're saying that because you care,
37:27because you want to escape.
37:34Is there any way back from this, Harry?
37:36Honestly, I don't know.
37:38Your only hope is Vaughan. He's the prime mover in this sorry tale.
37:42We need to bring him in.
37:43Let me do it.
37:44Out of the question.
37:45I can find him, Harry.
37:47There are people who can help, but they won't talk to you.
37:52They're asking me to trust you.
37:55All you have to do is trust that I want to get out of this mess.
38:02And this is my only chance.
38:04By finding Vaughan?
38:06No, this may not mean much.
38:11You know that I've put my life on the line for this country.
38:14You know that.
38:17I tried to do all the good that Lucas would have done if he'd lived.
38:22That's never been a lie.
38:25That's the deal that I make with him every single day.
38:37There.
38:46Give me Lucas's sidearm.
38:49What are you going to do?
38:50It's all right. Just give it to me.
38:56Everything I've ever learned in this wretched business is telling me not to do this.
39:02Betrayal is a cancer. Let it eat your soul.
39:05Not mine.
39:21Who are you?
39:24What do you mean?
39:25What has he told you?
39:28Told me about what?
39:32Don't lie to me.
39:35I'm not. I'm not. I work at the cancer. We're kids.
39:40Liar!
39:42I'm not a liar.
39:44I'm not a liar.
39:46I'm not a liar.
39:47I'm not a liar.
39:48I'm not a liar.
39:49Liar!
39:51You work for MI5?
39:56Yes. Yes.
40:01How much do you know?
40:03Everything.
40:12More lies.
40:20That was a stroke of luck.
40:22Not often you stumble across a mafia money launderer sailing down the Thames.
40:25Not much luck involved. He gave himself up.
40:27Pretends he's safer with us.
40:29Safe from who?
40:31He says someone's got a contract out on him.
40:33That kind of goes with the territory, doesn't it?
40:34Yeah, but not in Italian.
40:36Says the hitman's French.
40:38French?
40:43I'm sorry.
40:45It's not your fault.
40:50It's not my fault.
40:56Is he going to kill us?
41:01Is that your wife?
41:07You'd be brave for her.
41:20You know, today we'll send over everything found on the vessel.
41:22Let's have a look at that.
41:49Harry, have you spoken to Ruth?
41:51No, she's not answering her phone.
41:53I think there might be a problem.
41:55There's a French assassin in London right now.
41:57His target is an organised crime boss.
41:59How does that relate to Ruth?
42:01I think she may have just crashed the party.
42:03Call CO-19.
42:08Tarek, get me Keith Deary's address. Now.
42:15I'm sorry.
42:16Now.
42:36Get out of the way!
42:41Run!
42:43Get out!
42:47Get out!
42:49Get out!
43:04Get the key!
43:06Get the key!
43:07No!
43:37Shoot him!
43:42Shoot him!
43:43Shoot him!
43:44Shoot him!
44:08Go on!
44:10Don't!
44:11John!
44:13Did he hurt you?
44:14No.
44:16They'd have followed you.
44:18Get those handcuffs off her.
44:24Go on!
44:26Go on!
44:27Go on!
44:28Go on!
44:29Go on!
44:30Go on!
44:31Go on!
44:32Go on!
44:33Go on!
44:34Go on!
44:35Go on!
44:37Go on!
44:40Maya, go outside. Wait for me there.
44:49What are you going to do, John?
44:51John, he needs to get to a hospital.
44:52Maya, outside!
44:54Be there in a minute.
45:01Maya?
45:03Maya!
45:09If you kill me, John, your life is over.
45:14It's already over.
45:19I told them.
45:21You told them?
45:23Everything.
45:26Well, I doubt that.
45:29I doubt that very much.
45:30I doubt that very much.
45:34What did you tell them, John?
45:43What did you tell them that you didn't know?
45:48Oh, no.
45:51No, I know what you did.
45:54You told them it was me, didn't you?
46:01No.
46:07I wonder if you can even remember the truth of what you were.
46:31You're a killer, John.
46:35You fell asleep.
46:38Dreamed he was a hero.
46:41Now it's time to wake up and remember the truth.
47:00John!
47:30John!
47:51The dream is over now.
47:55And the killer is awake.
48:00The killer is awake.
48:31How are you?
48:43You were very brave, you know.
48:48I've seen field agents be less brave.
49:00Shut up. You should try and sleep.
49:31Ruth, what are you doing?
49:33I'm leaving.
49:36I'm fine.
49:37How are you?
49:39Better than Keith, dearie.
49:41What do you mean?
49:43Well, he hasn't spoken since last night and they've put him on suicide watch.
49:47Me? I'm fine.
49:51Ruth, you mustn't blame yourself.
49:53He was already unstable.
49:55He was already unstable.
49:57Ruth, you mustn't blame yourself.
49:59He was already unstable.
50:01Exactly.
50:03Unstable. Just weak.
50:05Not like us.
50:07There's no chance of us mourning our loved ones for years.
50:11No chance of us killing a man, having his blood spray in our faces and being struck down by a ship.
50:17The horror of it.
50:19Far better to be like us.
50:20Strong and stable and dead inside.
50:24Ruth.
50:25You think I haven't forgiven you for George?
50:29That I still grieve for him?
50:31For Nico's loss?
50:33For the life I left behind?
50:37The truth is much worse.
50:39What is the truth?
50:41That I'm fine.
50:43That I'm ready to go back to work.
50:46That's what's worse.
50:49That I killed a man last night.
50:53And I'm fine.
50:56I'm fine.
51:09Harry, there's someone to see you.
51:14Malcolm.
51:15Hello, Harry.
51:16What are you doing here?
51:17Sorry.
51:18A bit dramatic to turn up in person. I wasn't sure if comms were secure.
51:20Why wouldn't they be?
51:23I had a visit.
51:24From Lucas, I'm afraid.
51:25He wanted a file.
51:26Gave me a story about you being in trouble. Didn't ring true.
51:29When was this?
51:30Three days ago.
51:31And you're only coming to me now?
51:33I was following your protocol.
51:34Not easy to stay on the move for three days, although I did get to see the Highlands at last.
51:38You're talking about Albany?
51:55Harry.
51:57Lucas.
51:59Where are you?
52:00You were supposed to stay in contact.
52:01Let's not pretend, Harry.
52:05I'll get you a deal.
52:06Whatever it takes.
52:09Now, who's the liar?
52:11No.
52:12You were foolish.
52:14But you're invaluable to me.
52:18Sorry, Harry.
52:20I really am.
52:22Don't do this, Lucas.
52:23Please.
52:26Lucas.
52:28North.
52:30He's dead.
