ALARM BLARES

SIRENS APPROACH

Any sign of him?

No, not yet.

And so far no terrorist group
has claimed responsibility.

If Michael Ezard has survived that,
we should go in and get him.

Only if he's dead.

If he's alive,
we need to let him run.

BARBARA: We can't afford to lose
him.

Let this play out as planned.

What's wrong? Are you hurt?

He's sick.

He had the jab, EZ759,

the same time as Nadir.

There. Got him.

And he's OK.

He said "sick". He's sick.

Come on. Everything turns on this.

Maybe he was hurt in the blast
or sick of the carnage.

Yes, but if it is the virus,
he could be dead in a few days.

I'll get the section filtered.

I grew up in a community
terrorised by men of hate,

and I will not allow
the children of today

to suffer
the same obscene barbarity.

Because they find it
harder and harder

to bomb our transport systems,

they attack so-called soft targets,
to carry out their mass murder.

Their aim, as always,
is to divide us as a nation

because they loath the very idea
of a tolerant, democratic society.

The criminals
who organised this atrocity

want to divide us by fear.

They will not succeed.

MAN: Sorry to hear about
what you've been through.

Anything else, just ask. Anything.

Thanks.

MICHAEL: It feels like flu.

YASIM: You've got a fever.

Is this how it started with Nadir?

I don't know how it started
with Nadir.

But we know how it ended.

So I've got, what...

two, three days?

You need to get to a hospital.

With what?

What name? What ID?

We have to try and find Cooper.

Get a blood sample to him,
maybe he can analyse it.

But he's disappeared.

There's no cure.

We don't know that.

We only know that no-one's been
allowed to analyse blood or tissue.

We don't know what it's hiding.

How do we get hold of Cooper?

'He's sick.

'He had the jab, EZ759,
the same time as Nadir.'

It must have just started.

So the next 48 hours should tell us.

'Sleep well,
it may be your last for a while.'

STEPHEN: Here, drink this.

Tell me about my funeral.

Come on.

It must have been a good one.

I was quite amazed,
if truth be told.

The crowd.

I suppose I must have been
imagining my own.

But, er,
yours was standing room only.

Came from all over.

And they loved you.

I mean,
they really, really loved you.

What about you?

You know, we were...

..we were never really
blood brothers.

I tried to think of one happy memory
with you in it.

We hated each other.

We still do.

I don't hate you.

You slept with my wife, though.

You did do that.

You see, that was something
that was bothering me when I...

when I came back.

You... You weren't the same.
You'd changed.

There had to be a reason
why you were...

why you were desperate to find her,
why you wanted to get involved.

It wasn't moral outrage...

or anger at an injustice...

She wasn't your wife.

She was your widow.

- When?
- After the funeral.

0n the same day?

- 0n the day of my burial?
- Yes.

What do you think's gonna happen
this time?

You think...
HE COUGHS

You think you're gonna
get lucky again?

HE SPLUTTERS

MICHAEL: Get off me.

Stephen...

Stephen here, was just telling me...

..about how he got laid...

..on the night of my funeral.

Is there anything particular
you'd like to throw in?

It happened.

It's something the three of us
are going to have to...

Have to what?

MICHAEL: Live with?

Oh, no, no, not me.

I'm not gonna have to do that.

Stay away from me!

CHILDREN LAUGH

What the fuck have I got inside me?

Where's Yasim?

I don't know.

I woke up and she was gone.

Get away from me.

Sit up.

I'm all you've got.

I'm not gonna let you die
a second time.

What can you do?

First thing tomorrow,
I'm gonna find Cooper.

I don't know how, but I will.

Black coffee, please. Toast and jam.

How did you find me?

Remember the clothes I gave you,
Nadir's clothes?

They're tagged.

All this time,
you've known where I was?

Yeah, pretty much.

Do you think you could maybe burn
this for me a wee bit more, darling?

Sure, no problem.

You know,
I'm all for the big melting pot,

but it's definitely been
the death of irony.

So, how are the brothers?

Bonding, are they?

Michael is sick.

Same as Nadir.

Well, that must be, erm...

Well, being so close,
it must be hard being the doctor.

I came here
to try and think like one,

to remember some basic training.

Walk away from the patient,
drink coffee,

reflect on how useless you are.

Look, I didn't get the chance
to thank you properly

for what you did for Nadir.

I appreciate it, looking after her.

What do you want?

You still looking for
Professor Cooper?

SATNAV: 'You have reached
your destination.

'You have reached your destination.

'You have reached your destination.

'You have reached...'

Michael...

That night...

..I was so alone.

Stephen was there.

He was...

..kind.

And I wanted him.

COMPUTER: 'Automatic tracking
active.'

OK, this was an hour ago.
He's worse than yesterday,

but with a little help,
he can still walk.

Now, we're getting somewhere.

They then clock up 15 traffic
violations in under four minutes.

They're driving like there's
no-one watching them. Then...

..the system loses them.

Same pattern as Russell.
He's in with them, got to be.

And you're certain
he wouldn't have seen

anything of any significance
at your house?

Certain.

This might tell us
what's inside your brother.

The files are marked
"Operation Tag Me".

I tried to break in,
but I'm no genius.

- Operation Tag Me?
- Yeah, you know it?

No, but if it's a tag experiment
hooked up to a hep B jab,

Tag Me makes a lot of sense.

Yeah, but why the Middle East?

Maybe it's nothing to do with
the location.

Maybe it's because they're refugees,
a small contained population,

easy to access, easy to monitor
through follow-up health checks.

Mass human experiment to see if
and how the group disperses.

- Whether the tag works.
- A deal, you said.

If Stephen tried to access the data,
you'd help us find Cooper.

Yeah.

I was concerned about
the number of fatal accidents

in Professor Cooper's line of work.

So, for his own good...

Hiya.

..I said I wouldn't kill him
if he kept his mouth shut.

Will somebody tell this maniac

I had nothing to do with his
daughter's death?

Nothing!

You see what the eminent professor
fails to understand is,

he's an endangered species.

And I...

..am his new best pal.

Get to work.

Michael, how are you feeling?

Any pain spasms?

Any disorientation, hallucinations?

No.

What do you know about it?

You give me 50ml of Michael's blood

and I'll be able to stop guessing
and start looking back at my lab.

But what would speed things up,

maybe even give us
a fighting chance,

would be blood samples
from other infected bodies.

Three or four would be ideal.

And then straightaway,

I'd be able to get a clearer picture
of what we were dealing with.

The refugees Michael came in with,
they all had the jab.

One of them was getting sick.

Maybe more of them are by now.

But they were all arrested.

If they're sick,
they'll be held at Brampton.

I've worked there,

it's not an easy place
to get in and out of.

Fingerprint access on every door,
internal and external.

Could we get fingerprints

of somebody who works
at the holding centre?

Yeah, sure, why?

In China, the university
had fingerprint security.

The students used to play tricks
on each other,

and the system, all the time.

Fingerprints aren't that difficult
to forge.

Now that I've made the master,

I can make as many sets of prints
as I want.

And the beauty of this is that
you just suck the finger

and eat the evidence.

- Stephen, are you sure...
- No, of course I'm not.

I can't think of anyone
less equipped to break in there,

let alone take blood samples.

What if I hit an artery?

You won't, they're deep-seated.

If you stay at the surface,
you can't go wrong.

And you won't go wrong.

Tighter.

Just under the skin.

Don't go through the vein,
just into it.

HE GASPS

Oh, God.

Come on, come on, please.

Can I help you?

I'm Dr Wallis.

Doctor Keane asked me to take a look
at Mr Haman Aljamal and his family.

She did?

Jesus.

Doctors, the same the world over.

You're all fists.

Perhaps you could take samples
from the children.

'Access denied.'

The other refugees
that came in with this family,

two single men,
what happened to them?

They died.

'Access denied.'

Nobody likes you, Jack, nobody.

Not even the system.

You can't get in
cos you're already in.

Did you finger out?

How else could I have got out?

It's got you coming back in
four minutes after you left.

Excuse me, doctor.

Yes?

Has Dr Keane come in yet?

She's still at lunch.

0h, no, wait, here she is.

Dr Keane?

- Can you pick up, please?
- OK.

COUGHS

MONITOR BEEPS

'Access denied.

'Access denied.'
Come on.

'Access denied.'

Just kill the bloody system
till we get there!

ALARM BLARES

This is fantastic, well done,
Stephen, well done.

Do you know he slept
for about 90 minutes last night?

Another obsessive compulsive.

Have you found anything
that might help Michael?

Small steps, so far.

But now...

How are you getting on
with Operation Tag Me?

Yasim?

Yasim? Michael?

Michael?

I beat it.

Thank God.

All gone.

He's through it!

Stephen, what happened?

I got the samples to Cooper.

You were gone such a long time.

How are the others?

Haman's dead.

The other men, too.

Nura and the children won't make it.

But it's not about
tagging Haman and Nura.

It's not about the refugees.

When I was driving around,
it became so obvious, it's about us.

An experiment done on them
for our benefit.

It's not a big step
from where we are now.

You can fake an ID,
you can steal a fingerprint,

but it's almost impossible
to fake an internal tag,

a tag that you can't dig out
when you ARE the tag.

Do you remember when we talked about
blowing whistles?

If Cooper finds any evidence
in the samples, we can do that.

We could blow this out of the Water.

BARBARA: These images were recorded
half an hour ago.

ELEANOR: Remarkable.
A full recovery.

To come this far at such a cost,

we could learn so much more
if he were allowed to live.

You took a risk with me.

Given the importance
of that young man

in the defence of the realm,

I think it was a risk worth taking.

You once told me
that general rule was

if the Prime Minister said
it was OK,

and the Attorney-General said
it was OK,

then it was OK.

No disrespect to them,

but I think full disclosure
on Michael Ezard

is something neither of them
could live with.

It would break both of them,
and this government.

I think you're underestimating
the strength of Cabinet colleagues.

It has to be shut down,
with immediate effect.

And if it wasn't?

Question...

..what did you know?

And when did you know it?

For goodness sake, Barbara.

We're on the same side.

PATRICK: Minister.

Amazing.

And terrifying.

Patrick...

This isn't a reflection of the trust
and admiration I have for you,

which is immense,

but there's something
you should know.

I used a sweeper.

I needed absolute surveillance.

COMPUTER BEEPS

We've been looking at this
from the wrong way round.

Operation Tag Me was one experiment,

but there was another one going on
at the same time.

EZ759, how many jabs?

1,000. Every batch has 1,000. Why?

I can't get past the encryption,

but I do know how many sets of data
we're dealing with.

Operation Tag Me was huge,
over 12,000 sets of data.

And within that,

there's another 1,000 sets of data,
with additional information.

I think that's EZ759.

Now, EZ759 was a tag, probably
the same one as Operation Tag Me

but with something else,
something fatal.

But not to Michael.

No, but to Nadir, Haman, his family,
and the other refugees who had it.

YASIM: But not to him.

Because he's not an Arab.

EZ759, it's not just a tag.

It's the ultimate sanction.

Hello, Lawrence.

Thank God.

I'd almost given up on you.

Take a look.

The difference in cell structure,
it's so defined.

How's Michael doing?

Walking and talking.

Solely because of
his genetic make-up.

This lays down a platform,

the science is sharp enough now
to differentiate between races.

Even a Jew and an Arab,

though they share
the same Semitic origin.

Taking blood samples
from the refugees was a huge risk,

and against everything
that we agreed.

I had to know.

And you let me get this far
because you had to know.

Barbara, I need more time with this.

This is insane!

We know that potential enemies
have the knowledge

to develop an ethnic bomb
and deliver it.

A virus, water contamination,
an aerosol...

Our research was cancelled.

You never agreed with that.

No, I didn't.

Sometimes,
the timid have the loudest voices,

and they won.

But I didn't agree
to you and your team

piggy-backing
into sanctioned experiments.

The test we carried out
was not armed, no harm was intended.

You know that, you know who I am!

One mistake
turned it into a lethal pathogen.

One mistake,
we've learnt so much from that.

With the best intentions,

a doctor makes a mistake,
a patient dies.

How often does that happen
in a medical career, huh?

Once? Twice?

A lot more?

The wrong social policy
can kill hundreds,

the wrong foreign policy,
hundreds of thousands.

Lawrence,
you don't have to convince me.

Can we at least
monitor Michael Ezard?

Just monitor him
for the next five, ten years,

some good could come of this.

If we'd known from the start that
Michael Ezard had injected himself,

if we'd known his value...

we could have been more strategic.

I know you've tried to square
an impossible circle,

and I appreciate that, I really do.

Lawrence,
I'm very sorry it ended this way.

We need to destroy all evidence.

You heard her,
she'll destroy everything!

Everything!

Barbara! Wait!

Please!

You never had a step-daughter.

No.

Do you want to help me out
with this?

Take a walk with me.

No, you're going to have to
look me in the eye...

Your daughter, lovely wee girl.

By the way,
that data you left lying around,

lucky for you, it was encrypted.

Don't worry. It's sorted.

'Authorisation failed
Encryption bypass failed.

'Deleting files.
Deleting all user data.'

I just lost Operation Tag Me,
the files ate each other.

The blood samples and Michael
are the only evidence we have now.

Michael's vulnerable,

he's not on any database
that includes the living,

if something were to happen to him,
it would be hard to prove anything.

We need to get him somewhere safe,
out of this country.

He won't go without you.

His ID is a risk.

YASIM: He might still
have the tag in him.

STEPHEN: Enter the transport system
away from a major hub,

that way there's less chance
of there being a reader.

We know what they're willing to do
to destroy evidence,

you can't hide in this country
any more.

We have to protect him.

I'll get my ID reinstated,
I'll follow.

I will find you.

ID, please, sir.

I don't have any.

Can you put your right index finger
on here, please?

I don't want to do that.

Then we can iris scan you.

I haven't broken any law.

I know who I am.

And I don't have to prove that
to anyone.

Mr Stephen Ezard.

UNAS.

UNAS?

What does UNAS mean?

How did you know my name?

There was some data on me, UNAS.
What does that mean?

MACHINE BEEPS

What do you think?

The desk facing the window
or the wall?

It's quite a mess.

I thought I'd give you a hand
straightening it up.

Operation Tag Me,
I know about it.

A trial of a harmless tag that
ceases to function after two years,

the body then flushes it out,
no side effects whatsoever.

But the guineas pigs weren't told.

These trials go on all the time,
Stephen, all over the world.

It killed 1,000 people and you burnt
the bodies, destroyed the evidence.

Because the real truth...

..that it was the criminal actions
of a few rogue scientists,

would never have been heard.

Could you imagine the consequences?

The hate for generations,

the fuel it would have given
terrorists.

Perhaps even the destruction
of sympathetic regimes.

Hundreds of thousands
could have died if we hadn't acted.

0f course we covered it up.

It would have been a criminal act
not to have done.

That's what happens when you view
a human as less than sacred,

when you treat someone
as a piece of data, a bar code.

When you violate them
with internal tags,

they become less than human,

and you start to imagine
the impossible

and then you find yourself doing it.

This is a good government.

What happens when it isn't?

I don't feel violated.

Or less human.

Smaller than a grain of rice.

That's where mine went in.

An ID that can't be lost
or forged or stolen.

Its content and function
can be adapted to suit my needs.

It can be my credit card,
it can be my door key, my car key,

so I'll never lose them again.

Eventually it'll become universal,
starting at school age.

A tag for life.

It'll be easy to update.
You won't have to keep renewing it.

And it won't cost a fortune
to enforce.

And it'll give back
to the honest ordinary citizen

freedom of movement.

I thought it would be
a price worth paying.

I had to persuade others
you were worth it.

That you belong on our side.

You're the last person
we want as an enemy.

When?

Your ID's been reinstated.

So has access to your bank
and all your utilities.

You're free to...

UNAS.

What does it mean?

It's an unaffiliated subversive.

It means access to certain
public buildings is denied.

So are certain forms of transport
and communication.

You won't be able
to leave the country.

And your movements and contacts
will be monitored.

But Stephen, you can go back
to doing what you do best,

being a brilliant mathematician.

Go back to your old life.

You won't even notice
the difference.

And in a few years,
your data can be upgraded.

What have you done to Michael?

Yasim?

Stephen, you really must
try and move on.

Michael died weeks ago
in a landmine accident.

And I assume
his wife went back home.

She'd find it very difficult
to come back here.

We are tightening up on UK entry.

Home Secretary,

I'm sorry to interrupt,
but we have to leave.

Of course.

Barbara, you know Stephen Ezard,
don't you?

Yes.

We'll always be grateful
for your work on TIA.

A life without distraction.

It's all you ever wanted.

Take it.

- You need feeding up.
- Yeah.

I'll get us something.

Don't look too surprised,
just shake my hand.

Are we being watched?

I hope not.

Take a walk with me.
