00:00I thought you might need to be getting back.
00:12Is there a conference today?
00:15Work needs me.
00:18I don't even know what you do, John.
00:24Private security consultant.
00:27Makes sense.
00:28Obscure.
00:30Mysterious.
00:31Yeah, well, it's not as exciting as you think.
00:34Anyway, Dr. Lahn, last time I saw you,
00:37you were thinking about opening a tapas bar.
00:41I'd forgotten about that.
00:43It was a long time ago.
01:27Hey.
01:33What are we doing, John?
01:36We're doing what we're always supposed to do.
01:40What are we doing, John?
01:43We're doing what we're always supposed to do.
02:00The crest is sprouting late this year, gentlemen.
02:03Very funny.
02:05Listen, we had the best turnout ever at Tuesday's meeting.
02:09Ten free to retters, a dozen human rights bods.
02:12Hardly going to double the party, is it?
02:15Thanks for coming.
02:16I know this isn't easy for you.
02:18I can't stay long.
02:19I need to get back to the embassy.
02:21Kai, please would you think about actually coming to a meeting?
02:24Our group campaigns for democracy in China,
02:27but it's been years since a member actually set foot in the country.
02:30If we could get an actual party official...
02:31No.
02:32Look, I really feel that we're gaining momentum,
02:33and I feel that you could inspire us to the next...
02:35You know my position.
02:38I'm with you, just not...
02:40With us, yeah.
02:43Remember something, Claire.
02:45You're asking me to risk everything,
02:48when you risk nothing at all.
02:58First in for the meeting.
02:59Someone's trying to impress.
03:00I hear them a bit of impressing.
03:02Teachers pet.
03:04How's your asset?
03:06He's politically on side, but still loyal.
03:08He's not quite ready for the next step.
03:11We've had a Code Red border agency report.
03:14The UKBA database has flagged up three high-level CSS operatives
03:17entering the country yesterday on fake British passports.
03:21These three are a Chinese state security undercover cell.
03:24They're an aggressive unit that specialise in assassinations
03:26and high-level industrial espionage.
03:28There's no precedent for this,
03:29so we have to assume that it's something important.
03:31And their cover identities are due to leave the country in three days.
03:34Whatever they want, they want it fast.
03:35That's why we need good intel now.
03:36Sorry, my asset's a slow burner. She needs more time.
03:38That's not good enough. Beth?
03:40Kai is very promising.
03:41Ideologically, he's committed.
03:43And personally.
03:44His brother protested at Tiananmen and disappeared.
03:46Chinese assets are notoriously hard to turn.
03:48If there's the slightest chance that we can flip a CSS officer
03:51inside the embassy, then we have to take it.
03:53He needs to be pushed.
03:54Then you push him.
03:55But gently.
03:57I think I can do it.
03:58Think?
03:59Or no?
04:01I can turn him.
04:05It may just be my epic hangover,
04:07but I fail to see the urgency.
04:08Home Secretary,
04:09there are a million Chinese spies in the world.
04:11We've spent years trying to turn just one of them.
04:13Even so.
04:15Advise caution.
04:16Our relationship with China remains delicate.
04:18Chinese state security seem to have no problem
04:20sending three high-level field operatives to London.
04:23I don't even know what they're here for yet, Harry.
04:25They needn't be so sabre-rattly about it.
04:27So we should simply roll over for the bigger dogs?
04:30If you roll over,
04:31you sometimes get your tummy tickled.
04:34I don't think they put the hazelnut syrup in.
04:39Home Secretary.
04:52Bang! Bang!
04:55Have a witchy one.
05:00No time.
05:07Bang! Bang!
05:10Bang! Bang! Bang!
05:12Come, come, come.
05:29Mr Beecher.
05:30Sir Harry.
05:32I love that.
05:33Please, Harry.
05:34Harry is fine.
05:36I see you're plunging into the indigenous cuisine.
05:40It's the vinegar.
05:42Who knew?
05:43I wanted to talk to you about the Chinese.
05:46Any CIA dealings with CSS in London currently?
05:50CSS, huh?
05:52No.
05:53That's my people.
05:54Anything I should know about?
05:56We're not entirely sure what it is we don't know as yet.
05:59One of your unknown unknowns, I suppose.
06:02I'd bet it's industrial espionage.
06:04And I'm not talking toasters.
06:05Chinese are raising their game.
06:08Any thoughts on potential treasure?
06:11Look into it.
06:13I'd advise you tread on Chinese toes softly right now.
06:17Trade, Taiwan, human rights, no answer.
06:19You wouldn't want to upset them.
06:22Not as much as we have, anyway.
06:24We don't like to upset anybody.
06:34Alpha 2, turning this asset could be our only chance of finding out what the CSS want.
06:38He's not a person, but see him as an asset.
06:39He's just an asset, nothing more.
06:42Play whatever emotional cards you've got.
06:45You look awful.
06:49Listen, I'm really sorry about last night.
06:51Don't apologise.
06:53You know I want change in China more than anything.
06:56I'd betray my country.
06:57You wouldn't be betraying China, just the people in power.
07:01Let's walk.
07:02OK.
07:08I've got something to tell you.
07:10I need you to stay calm.
07:14My name isn't Claire.
07:16Give her a chance.
07:21Oh, no.
07:23I'm dead.
07:24No, no.
07:25You're alive and you're brave and you can help your country.
07:27You don't understand.
07:28If I'm seen with a British spy...
07:29You haven't been.
07:30We've been careful.
07:31Never contact me again.
07:32Never.
07:34I'm sorry.
07:35Never contact me again.
07:36Never.
07:38If you want true freedom, then you're going to have to take risks.
07:40You know as well as I do that China is only headed in one direction.
07:43More oppression and more control.
07:45Spare me the rationalisation.
07:46You are not interested in that.
07:47You lied to me.
07:48Pretended to care.
07:49Pretended to share my beliefs.
07:52He's walking.
07:53Shit.
07:54Out for two.
07:56I'm not going to lie to you.
07:58I know that you want to help.
07:59And if you do, I promise you,
08:00everything I tell you from now on will be the truth.
08:03Have some professional courtesy.
08:04If you're going to play me,
08:05you need a better strategy than this.
08:06This isn't a strategy.
08:08You're the first agent I've ever tried to turn up.
08:10I have no idea how to do this.
08:11If you're so inexperienced,
08:12then why are you my recruiter?
08:14Because you're not that important.
08:18I'm sorry.
08:19I told you I'm not going to lie to you.
08:21Goodbye.
08:27He's at stage right.
08:28He's gone.
08:29Okay, come home Elvis.
08:30We need something on what that Chinese team is here for.
08:32We've no idea what they're planning.
08:35There is something else we could do.
08:37Get hold of the CSS data archive.
08:56Ready?
09:01Yeah.
09:20Okay, Tariq.
09:21Ready for the tremolo switches?
09:22I'm going to cause a localised power surge
09:24to knock out perimeter security systems for a moment.
09:27There'll only be a blip inside the building
09:28and they won't even notice.
09:29A moment.
09:30When I say go,
09:31you'll have 1.8 seconds to open the window.
09:36Ready?
09:38Go.
09:39Start.
09:41Okay.
09:44Breathe in.
09:57What have they got?
09:58They've found the most recent archive.
09:59Kept offline on 3D optical disks.
10:01Makes it completely unhackable remotely.
10:03Good.
10:04You have no idea how pleased I am to hear from you.
10:06You have people in the embassy.
10:09You know I can't tell you anything.
10:10They're about to be caught.
10:11An alarm has been tripped.
10:16Alpha 1, I've just received intel from Kai.
10:18The Chinese are on to you.
10:20He came through.
10:21Copy that.
10:22We're leaving.
10:23Wade.
10:24Alpha 2.
10:25Do you believe him?
10:27Yes.
10:28Either way, they're on to you.
10:29Get out now.
10:30If you're caught, there's nothing we can do to protect you.
10:33I've got guards down here.
10:36You need to find a new exit.
10:57Alpha 2.
11:08Any ideas?
11:10Alpha 2, we have to use Kai.
11:12Your call, Alpha 2.
11:22Can you get our people out of the building?
11:24We'll protect you.
11:26Are you with us?
11:30Put me through to them.
11:35I'm patching through, Kai.
11:37We're in the northwest corner meeting room on the third floor.
11:39Okay.
11:40There's an interconnecting door opposite the window.
11:48Turn right.
11:49At the end of the room, there's a concealed door leading to a staircase.
11:57Top of the stairs.
11:58Turn left.
12:07Above you is the only unalarmed access to the roof.
12:09Okay.
12:10I'm hanging up.
12:17Wait, wait, wait.
12:19We can't both go this way.
12:20They'll know we had inside help.
12:21It's your only escape option.
12:22Use it.
12:23Harry.
12:24If Kai's a solid asset, he's too valuable to lose.
12:26It won't take the Chinese long to work out who helped us.
12:29I'll find another way out.
12:30Ruth, alert the police posted outside the embassy anonymously.
12:33You saw someone breaking in.
12:34Going off comms.
12:35Go.
12:45Police, please.
12:55Come on.
13:05Don't shoot, don't shoot!
13:07Who are you?
13:08Listen, mate, I didn't realise this place was...
13:10Whatever it is.
13:12Someone saw him before the British invaded.
13:20Search him.
13:21Take him away.
13:25Come on.
13:38Chinese by the burglar, eh?
13:39Probably not.
13:40But I've spent enough of my life in cells, so tell me last night wasn't for nothing.
13:43Well, we found something.
13:44It took me a while to translate the files.
13:45You speak Chinese?
13:46Mandarin and Wu.
13:47Except my Cantonese is horrible.
13:49Once I'd finished, one key word kept cropping up.
13:52Amphitrite.
13:54Poseidon's wife.
13:56Goddess of the seas.
13:57Amphitrite is the code name for a new desalination technology.
14:01It's super efficient and ultra low cost.
14:04Water filtration tech.
14:06Would the Chinese really send in a top assassination team just for that?
14:10It's the global drought map.
14:12Kenya hasn't had a wet season for four years.
14:14And it isn't just a third world problem.
14:16Australia is dry, it's California.
14:18This is what it could look like in 30 years.
14:20So whoever can make seawater drinkable gets very rich.
14:24We traced a connection to QMK Technologies.
14:27They're a biotech company.
14:30They're world leaders in desalination technology.
14:32And they're based in South West London.
14:34This is about more than money.
14:35It's about the power to control a basic human need.
14:38Empires have been built on less.
14:39I'll brief the home sec and talk to this QMK.
14:45Beth, you seem quiet.
14:46What's on your mind?
14:47Kai?
14:48Yeah.
14:49Listen, running an asset is all about psychology and emotion.
14:52You understand that.
14:53I know.
14:54I'm just surprised he turned quite so quickly.
14:56I know you feel contempt for his disloyalty.
14:59Use it.
15:00You trust your instincts.
15:01They've got you this far.
15:04The Chinese wouldn't dare launch an operation like this against a British company.
15:07Why not?
15:09They have to live up to being the world's premier economy.
15:11And all we do is moan about their censorship and nag them to stop building power stations.
15:15No wonder they're ready to steal from us.
15:17This little island's intellectual property may be the last meaningful global currency we have left.
15:21We have to hang on to it.
15:23Whatever it takes.
15:25Whatever it takes.
15:46Whatever happens, whatever you hear, just stand off.
15:48Let me do this my way.
15:51So you decided to help?
15:53I almost didn't.
15:55How did it feel?
15:57Purposeful.
15:59I want to do more.
16:01As soon as I took that first step, it felt right.
16:04I'm not sure if I believe you.
16:06Steady.
16:07What?
16:08Don't spook him now.
16:09Well, last time we met, you weren't exactly whistling God save the Queen.
16:12And then suddenly you risk everything.
16:14If you're lying to me, I'll kill you.
16:16Don't you think everything I told you about my brother and my family, my beliefs, that is a lie as well?
16:21Listen, I think we may have picked up a tail.
16:24I'll meet you at the lockup.
16:26Come with me.
16:27I need you to do something.
16:35Sorry about that stunt at your house.
16:37Bit dramatic, I know.
16:38You've got 30 seconds before I hang up.
16:40What do you want?
16:41Okay, okay.
16:43I need your help.
16:44Badly.
16:45Badly?
16:46What, and you think blackmailing me is the best way to get it?
16:48Look, John, I'll meet you till he promises.
16:52I need that Albany file.
16:54No.
16:55I told you, I'm not doing this.
16:58Please.
16:59They won't leave me alone.
17:00Do this for me and I'm gone.
17:01Forever.
17:03You can carry on with whatever life you want.
17:16Are you committed to the cause of your government?
17:19No.
17:23Does anyone else know about your involvement with MI5?
17:26No.
17:27The tail?
17:28There's nothing, I was wrong.
17:31Flying Colours.
17:32He's on the level.
17:34So, do I still call you Claire?
17:37Might as well.
17:39Okay.
17:41What do you want me to do?
18:04What do you want me to do?
18:35Well, QMK just about stopped short of patting me on the head
18:39and telling me to run along, thankfully.
18:41I warned them about the threat to their Amphitrite project,
18:44but apparently they're very confident in their security arrangements.
18:47Anything from our asset?
18:48Beth's got him looking into them.
18:50Surely they'd want our help if someone's planning to steal their crown jewels.
18:54I don't think so.
18:56I don't think so.
18:57I don't think so.
18:58I don't think so.
18:59I don't think so.
19:00I don't think so.
19:01Surely they'd want our help if someone's planning to steal their crown jewels.
19:04Tarek, we really need to get into their system and find out more about Amphitrite.
19:07Their core files are well protected.
19:09A couple of days to crack them remotely.
19:11If we could use a terminal inside their offices, I could upload an instant hack,
19:14bypass their firewall completely.
19:15So we go in.
19:16Security's tight.
19:17Have you got a list of QMK contractors?
19:18Because we'll need to borrow an identity.
19:20Got it. There's cleaners, temps...
19:21No, someone with higher access.
19:23Translator, starts tomorrow.
19:25Perfect.
19:26Name's Kendra Scott.
19:27Speaks French, German, Arabic and Mandarin.
19:32Alpha 2 in position.
19:35Okay Gazelle, Alpha's are in place.
19:37We've got your back.
19:38Eco, second count, still one.
19:40Speaking Chinese.
19:43Speaking Chinese.
19:46Speaking Chinese.
19:49Speaking Chinese.
19:51Speaking Chinese.
19:53Speaking Chinese.
19:55Speaking Chinese.
19:57All right. For Quark, it's more than enough.
20:01Well, it's good enough for Quark.
20:04Let's take a break. I need coffee.
20:07Let's take a break. I need coffee.
20:10All right.
20:17This is Gazelle. Mum will move.
20:20We haven't got long.
20:21You try remembering the Mandarin for Quark.
20:2314th floor, Grade 1 IT lab.
20:25There'll be a priority access terminal where you can hack into the system.
20:29OK. Well, there's a guard and a very locked-looking door.
20:32Sorry, there was no indication that would be secured.
20:37OK.
20:48OK.
20:55I'll do.
21:12God, are you all right?
21:13Sorry, I've got hyperglycemia.
21:16I need to get to a bathroom. I need to take my shot.
21:20Can you let me...?
21:22I'm sorry, I know you're not supposed to.
21:25Get some relief.
21:26I'll check on you in two minutes, OK?
21:28Thank you.
21:54OK.
22:12Kai.
22:13I searched for QMK on our systems like you asked.
22:15There's a bomb.
22:16Where?
22:17There, at QMK. We've planted it.
22:20You need to be sure about this.
22:22If they take out the whole building, it'll look like an accident.
22:26Alpha 2 to all units.
22:28I've just received a report from our asset.
22:30The Chinese have a bomb planted inside QMK.
22:32They could detonate at any moment.
22:34Gazelle, get out of there immediately.
22:36One minute.
22:38They don't want to steal the desalination tech. They want to destroy it.
22:41Tariq, jam the mobile network and GPS signal to the area
22:43to prevent remote detonation and red-flash the bomb squad.
22:46Alpha 2, prepare to evacuate.
22:48I'm in.
22:49It's moot. Leave immediately.
22:56Please stay your weight.
22:57The nearest exit could be concealed.
23:08OK, Hoang, you need to hear this.
23:09Amphitrite is not the code name for the desalination project.
23:11Amphitrite is its creator.
23:13It's a female scientist, Chinese-born, Zhang Li.
23:16Do you copy, Hoang?
23:17She's in the building. Lab T15.
23:19It's an assassination.
23:20Agreed.
23:21Gazelle, find that scientist fast and get both of you out safely.
23:31OK, everybody out.
23:32Move as quickly as you can. Step away from the building.
23:39Quickly, move.
23:40Don't move.
23:41Quickly.
23:48Miss Chang?
23:52Miss Chang?
24:01Who are you?
24:02What are you doing?
24:03Will you please stop pointing that gun at me?
24:05Let me see your access card.
24:06There's a fire in this building.
24:08There is no fire. We've done a thermal scan.
24:10Thermal scan? Who are these guys?
24:12Let me see your access card now.
24:17Come clean.
24:18I'm security services.
24:23Procol MOV6 Pelican.
24:25CIA.
24:27Gold 9 Cormorant.
24:32If you are five, you better tell me what you're doing here now.
24:37Tell them.
24:39We're investigating a possible Chinese operation against Miss Chang.
24:41We have a credible bomb threat against this building.
24:44Source?
24:45A trusted asset in the Chinese embassy.
24:47A trusted asset in the Chinese embassy.
24:49You need to get her out of here.
24:58All right.
24:59Let's go, Miss Chang.
25:01You had better be right.
25:08Lucas North, Section Chief. We need to talk.
25:09We secure the package first.
25:15Come with me, please.
25:23My son will be okay. You promise?
25:26Yes. The CIA are very, very good.
25:33Where are we headed?
25:34Nearby safe house.
25:35Randomly assigned location from HQ. We don't even know.
25:45SIREN BLARES
26:03Can't really call this relationship special if you don't even talk.
26:05Once I know what's going on, we can get all caught up, sweetheart.
26:08Wait. You said this location was randomly assigned?
26:11GPS transmission from our base.
26:13When?
26:14Just now.
26:17But we jammed the signal.
26:38Package on the roof!
26:40We delivered Chang directly to them.
26:42We knew we'd react to a bomb threat by shutting down the networks,
26:44enabling them to hijack CIA GPS.
26:46They just had to sit and wait.
26:47There was no bomb.
26:48So the intel from the embassy...
26:49It was fed to us. The Chinese let us steal it.
26:51It gave us the only thing that they knew about Chang,
26:54her code name Amphitrite.
26:56Which leads us to one conclusion about the entire operation.
26:58Kai's a triple agent.
26:59We've been on the end of their rope from the start.
27:01We've been manipulated by a foreign superpower on our own soil,
27:04not only with ease, but with contempt.
27:06There's no way we could have known.
27:07We may have a small window of opportunity to turn this round.
27:09Bring Kai in quickly and quietly before he has a chance to disappear.
27:17I'm sorry about your lip.
27:19Don't be.
27:27You couldn't have predicted this.
27:29I couldn't have got it more wrong if I'd tried.
27:35Tarek, have you got our phone tracking logs from yesterday?
27:38I can get them.
27:39Is there a problem?
27:40I'm sure it's just a glitch.
27:42Lucas followed a suspected tail onto the tube yesterday
27:44and he got on at Queensway,
27:45but the central line was suspended all afternoon.
27:47Maybe they restarted it when they saw him.
27:50I mean, he's pretty mean-looking.
27:59I need a code 7 protocol.
28:00You couldn't look it up for me, could you?
28:09Listen, don't worry. I'll do it myself.
28:11Thanks, Stephen.
28:15A CIA operation?
28:16No wonder QMK stonewalled me.
28:18And you didn't think I should be in this loop?
28:20Part of the deal, I'm afraid.
28:21CIA run Zhang's protection, no Five involvement.
28:24Beecher, light to my face.
28:26That's spying for you.
28:28Look, the US lose $300 billion every year to Chinese industrial espionage.
28:33It occurred to them that some of that filthy lucre could be flowing the other way.
28:36With the handy by-product of stemming China's escalating economic clout.
28:39By poaching Chinese scientists, we fit in how?
28:42We house them, we get a share of the spoils.
28:44We're the Guantanamo for boffins.
28:46And for trying to make the decision freely.
28:48She's a British citizen now.
28:49Don't underestimate the value of that.
28:51And if her technology works as promised,
28:53then our share in it will safeguard our energy supply for decades.
28:56Oil-rich countries do tend to be rather water-poor.
28:59A trade.
29:01Water for oil, so we can keep the Passat running and they can live.
29:06Harry, the agency wants Kai.
29:08No.
29:09He betrayed us.
29:10We'll deal with him.
29:11I don't want to jeopardise his deal with the Americans.
29:14Which is why we can afford to piss them off only for a little while longer.
29:17Should you get to Kai before they do.
29:26We already know the truth, so you might as well tell us.
29:28I don't understand. What happened to the bomb?
29:31What happened to Zhang now?
29:32Look, I don't know what you're talking about.
29:34I heard a story about your brother in Tiananmen.
29:36Was that just to get me on side? Do you even have a brother?
29:38Everything I told you has been absolutely true.
29:41I don't know what's happened. I have been a good traitor.
29:44I want Lucas in there. Where is he?
31:05PHONE RINGS
31:10I need you to take over from Beth. She's too close to this.
31:13I've been calling. Where are you?
31:15Just been following up a lead on the red CSS family on the way.
31:18Lucas.
31:23I've been digging in the GCHQ archive.
31:26If Kai's a triple agent, we'll have had a cleaned up file with her to us at some point.
31:30Kai's brother did disappear after Tiananmen Square.
31:33But look who led the police to his hiding place.
31:38Good work.
31:47You can drop the innocent out now.
31:52Why'd you do it, Kai? Patriotism.
31:55I don't know what you're talking about!
31:57You were the one who informed on your own brother when you were 14 years old.
32:01Yeah, your little friend here has been a party loyalist all his life.
32:04Tell me, what kind of fanatic gets up his own brother
32:08to a state he knows will imprison or execute him?
32:12OK.
32:15I spent hours and hours with Kai.
32:17Listening to him talk, feeling what he felt.
32:19I just can't believe it was all a lie.
32:21You came up against a better opponent, that's all.
32:24It could have gone worse.
32:26How is it worse?
32:27I don't know.
32:28I don't know.
32:29I don't know.
32:30I don't know.
32:31I don't know.
32:32I don't know.
32:33I don't know.
32:34I don't know.
32:35I don't know.
32:36I don't know.
32:37I don't know.
32:38I don't know.
32:39I don't know.
32:40How exactly?
32:43Well, in this job, every day you make it home in one piece,
32:48that's a little victory.
32:51Bloody hell.
32:52I can see why they don't let you write the prospectus.
32:56Your instincts were wrong on this one.
32:58But don't stop trusting them after one mistake.
33:10I don't know.
33:40I don't know.
34:01Beth, where are you?
34:02Kai's flat. It's bugged.
34:03We're not monitoring him.
34:04Neither are the Americans. They're Chinese bugs.
34:06Why would the CSS spy on one of their loyal officers?
34:09He's emotionally compromised because of his family background.
34:11Beth, he's a triple agent.
34:13Yes, he's the perfect triple agent because he doesn't know it.
34:15They used him.
34:16They knew we were cultivating him, so they let it happen.
34:19And when the timer was right,
34:20they fed him disinformation that he thought was the truth.
34:23Lucas, he's been on our side all along.
34:26All this time, I thought I was being brave.
34:32You were brave.
34:34I was stupid, disloyal and weak.
34:38That's why they chose me.
34:41I didn't disappoint.
34:43I'm so sorry.
34:44I was trying to help.
34:45I was really trying to help.
34:48I'm sorry.
34:50I'm sorry.
34:52I'm sorry.
34:53I was trying to help.
34:54I was really trying to help.
34:56You still can.
34:59Your flat was bugged.
35:01They would have one on your person,
35:02but we scanned you on the way in,
35:03so it's not with you now.
35:05Do you have a coat, a phone?
35:10My briefcase.
35:12They were always taking it away from security sweeps.
35:16I know we have no right to ask for your help.
35:18You have every right.
35:20I betrayed you.
35:23Just tell me what to do.
35:32You okay?
35:33Yeah, I'm fine.
35:34Good.
35:36So there's a woman at your embassy,
35:37a scientist called Zhang Li.
35:39Her codename is Amphitrite.
35:41We need her.
35:42Right now, the Home Secretary is drafting an emergency law,
35:45which means that we can legally enter and take her back.
35:47All I need you to do is make sure that she doesn't leave before tomorrow.
35:51I'll see what I can do.
35:53Okay.
36:12Still a vodka man, I take it.
36:15Come on, we don't need to be so unfriendly.
36:24Hello.
36:35Hope you covered your tracks.
36:37Did you use a full guy?
36:39Of course you did.
36:41Didn't have to do that, of course.
36:44You could have taken a risk.
36:45Talked your way out of it.
36:46Harry Pierce would have believed you.
36:48Still, better to be safe than sorry.
36:51Best to set someone up.
36:54Whose life did you ruin today, John?
36:56Look, I did what you asked.
37:00I helped you.
37:02Now you and I are done.
37:05You didn't do this for me.
37:08You did this for you.
37:19What are you doing? You shouldn't be here.
37:21Listen.
37:23I've done it.
37:24You've done what?
37:29I've fixed things.
37:32Everything's clear.
37:34We can be together.
37:36Do anything.
37:37John, you need to slow down.
37:39Sorry, I just had to tell you.
37:42I don't want to waste another moment.
37:48Okay.
37:49Okay.
37:51Okay.
37:56It's got to be forever this time, John.
38:19I'm sorry.
38:35Mr. Tan, I have good news for you.
38:38You've done well for your country.
38:41Thank you, Mrs. Tan.
38:42Are you going home today?
38:44Of course.
38:45But I'm no longer useful in London.
38:49You're too useful.
38:51We need you to go home.
38:54Congratulations.
39:00We're on.
39:02Looks like it worked.
39:04They're taking Jiang out of the embassy.
39:06Get CO-19 into position.
39:08They're loading her into a blue transit van.
39:10Reg, Victor 296.
39:14I've got Kai's with them.
39:15They're taking him too.
39:17Maintain eyeball. I'm on my way.
39:19I'm on my way.
39:43I'm on my way.
39:45I'm on my way.
39:51Jiang, Kai, out of the car.
40:06Harry Pierce.
40:07This is Xiao.
40:08You are interfering with the rightful repatriation of Chinese citizens.
40:12I'm outside Tem's house right now.
40:20Just had a call from the Chinese section chief.
40:23Tell Lucas to hold his position.
40:27Hold position, Alpha 1.
40:28Hold.
40:31Awaiting further orders.
40:36It's been a few months, Mr. Xiao.
40:38I have no interest in playing spies.
40:40You can pretend it's still the Cold War if you want.
40:42In fact, it suits us perfectly.
40:44Down to brass tacks then.
40:45If you think I'll let you walk away with Miss Jiang,
40:48you're making a catastrophic mistake.
40:50We were planning to destroy her resurgent explosion at QMK tonight.
40:54A truck loaded with industrial gases in the underground car park.
40:58But your act of aggression has forced us to abandon the truck elsewhere.
41:04We will detonate if you don't give her back.
41:07There'll be many casualties.
41:09That would be an act of war, Mr. Xiao.
41:11Jiang was removed from China on an operation that killed two civilians.
41:15So let us not talk acts of war.
41:17Stand by, Alphas.
41:20What the hell is going on?
41:22No idea. Stay sharp.
41:24I'll talk to the Home Secretary.
41:26You have ten minutes.
41:32Ruth, there's a truck bomb somewhere in London.
41:35The Chinese are threatening to detonate it
41:37unless we let them have Jiang and Kai.
41:39Harry, it's another bluff.
41:40I don't think so. Not this time.
41:42Now, QMK would never let a truck into their car park
41:44unless it was from an approved contractor.
41:46Get a list. See if any of them have had a vehicle stolen.
41:49Right.
41:55Sixteen companies.
41:57Only one with any vehicle unaccounted for.
41:59Check our CCTV on the way to QMK.
42:01Find that vehicle.
42:08Last camera pinpointed it approaching Elephant and Castle 15 minutes ago.
42:12Bomb squad will never get there on time.
42:14Dimitri, are you thinking what I'm thinking?
42:19Claire, what's going on?
42:20It's OK. Just stay calm.
42:29The eggs will crucify us.
42:31Annoy the Americans or risk British lives.
42:34There's no decision here, Home Secretary.
42:36I need you to be sure about this, Harry.
42:38Take her down to the wire. Confirm the bomb is real.
42:41If it is, give her back to the Chinese.
43:01Got it. I've found the van.
43:03South side of Borough Market.
43:05Need to be sure. How fast, Dimitri?
43:07Still two minutes.
43:11You are late.
43:12The Home Secretary is currently over the Atlantic.
43:14Getting through is proving quite difficult.
43:21I'm here. I can see the van.
43:24Go, go, go!
43:32You are delaying me to find the truck.
43:35I assure you I'm trying to get you an answer.
43:37I'm sorry, Mr Pearce, but with no decision, you leave me with no option.
43:47It's here. The bomb is real.
43:49OK, Mr Shaw, you win.
43:51Alpha 1 and 2, stand down.
43:52Alpha 3, evacuate the area and liaise with the bomb squad.
44:04Guys, I need you to clear this area immediately.
44:06Move away from the area. Please.
44:08Please.
44:22Kai's got a gun.
44:23He's fanned off. We may have time to defuse that bomb.
44:25You heard him, Alpha 3.
44:34Doesn't look too bad.
44:36The electronics will be hidden though, near the centre.
44:38I should tell you upfront, this is my first time.
44:41Be gentle with me.
44:56Beth, talk him down. Slow and calm.
44:59Triggers and fail-safes will be routed through that circuit board.
45:02You see the chip? That's bigger than the other.
45:04Yeah.
45:05We can melt it.
45:07Sounds like you just told me to melt the enormous bomb.
45:09It will kill the transmitter, and the bomb won't be able to detonate.
45:12Kai, please, just listen to me.
45:16Calm down.
45:18Just take some deep breaths.
45:26Just put the gun down. There's nothing you can do.
45:30Get back.
45:32Don't be cheap.
45:33No!
45:34There's something I can do.
45:35She's innocent.
45:36That's why you can't kill her, but I can.
45:38Then at least they don't get her.
45:40Be careful not to burn the other components.
45:41Yeah, thanks.
45:46Look, I know they killed your brother, but this is no way to survive.
45:49No, I killed my brother!
45:52You must have triggered the fail-safe.
45:53Get out now.
45:54Just a minute. I'm nearly there.
45:55I'm nearly there.
45:58What kind of fanatic gives his brother away?
46:01A boy impressed by words and ideas and lies,
46:05who every single day since has tried to make up for what he did.
46:11This is the only way that we can win.
46:15Don't you dare close your eyes!
46:16If you're going to shoot that woman, you damn well look her in the face!
46:26Shit.
46:31Bomb safe. Bomb safe.
46:40It's over. The bomb's defused.
46:56Okay.
46:57Thank you, Miss.
47:04For what it's worth, handing you over to the CIA like a piece of meat.
47:10None of us want that.
47:13I'm a commodity.
47:15If you're valuable enough to someone, you can never be free.
47:20Still, I'm a commodity.
47:22I'm free.
47:24Still, I have my son.
47:29Do you have children?
47:32No.
47:40Harry.
47:41If you don't start knocking, I'll have to have you fitted with a cowbell.
47:46Everything all right?
47:48The CIA are picking up Jang, but Beth asked to take Kai to them personally.
47:52I hate the way we're just handing them over like they're just things to be exchanged and moved around.
47:57Well, we're all being moved around by someone, Ruth.
48:00But I agree with you. Kai deserves better.
48:04I wish there was something we could do.
48:16Hello?
48:17If there is anywhere Mr. Kai would like to stop off on the way, do make sure he gets there safely.
48:22Okay.
48:31That's right. Where are we going?
48:34You tell me.
48:45Take a right up here.
48:53Take a right.
49:04Then the next left.
49:18You can't be serious.
49:19Just you.
49:23No.
49:25No, Kai, they'll take you back to China. This is insane.
49:27You know what? I've figured out what my purpose is.
49:30To betray.
49:31Listen to me.
49:32I didn't realise until now, but that's what I do.
49:35I betrayed my brother, my country, your country.
49:39Every idea I've ever had.
49:49Stop. You know what they'll do to you.
49:51Maybe. But I need to see my parents.
49:54Tell them the truth. Try and explain.
49:56Their forgiveness is not worth your life.
49:58Please, Kai.
49:59I can't let you do this.
50:00Just let me have this little bit of control over my life.
50:03Just for once. Just for today.
50:05This is suicide.
50:08Don't remember me too poorly, eh?
50:22Tarik, any news from the border agency?
50:24Three known aliases of the CSS snatch team left the country an hour ago.
50:27They've gone.
50:28Does anyone know Stephen Owen? G-section.
50:30He's been arrested.
50:32Crashed the mainframe and diverted £24,000 from one of our slush funds
50:35into his personal bank account.
50:37It's not possible, is it?
50:39I don't know.
50:40I don't know.
50:41I don't know.
50:42I don't know.
50:43I don't know.
50:44I don't know.
50:45I don't know.
50:46I don't know.
50:47I don't know.
50:48I don't know.
50:49I don't know.
50:51Well, his user ID and password were logged at the time of the crash.
50:56He's only 22.
50:57He'll serve time for that.
51:01Traitor's a traitor.
51:20Traitor's a traitor.
