You don't want to miss out on this story.

A passenger is dead.

A fucking bomb.

Okay. You didn't hear it from me.

What have you done?

Just trust me.

I want the network evacuated.

Lines cleared. And the train that's blocking me moved.

Yes, we can do that.

I need your assurance no one else will be hurt.

And I want visual confirmation in the next 30 minutes

that you have Bailey-brown in Germany.

A photo. I'll give you a number to send it to.

Listen, we've tried to locate him. I cannot guarantee I can find him so fast.

Sam, please...

okay, okay. So you've seen what happens when you fail.

You do not wanna see what happens when you fail again.

You have 30 minutes. All right?

Now, you fucking find him.

All right. Need you to tell the passengers

that there's been a small fire on the network

and that we've had to divert to another line.

Come on! Now.

Hey. Calm down.

Sir.

All right, everyone, listen up.

"Attention, this train has been diverted onto the u8

following a small fire on the network.

This is purely a precautionary measure.

Will the passengers in carriage one please vacate

"and move down the train immediately."

All right, kids. You've heard it. Grab your bags.

- Guys. - Let's move. Let's move.

One after the other, please.

I repeat... All right. Everyone in the front...

Please move down into one of the rear carriages.

Thank you.

You okay?

- Come on. Quick, quick, quick. - All right.

Okay, good.

Let's get going.

Hello?

Hello?

There he is. There.

What the hell are you doing?

Hey! I need you to listen very carefully.

Come on, come on. You're okay...

We need to get out of here.

Go. Go.

You told them half an hour?

Yeah. Because half an hour is all we've got

before they come down here and figure it out.

I hold my head up just enough to see the sky

and when we go we won't go slow

we'll put up such a fight

and you will be one day exactly what you are

just keep your head held high

kiss your fist and touch the sky

too late to keep the world from dying

one day

we'll all be there

yeah, yeah, yeah yeah, yeah, yeah.

Who is this Sam Nelson?

He's a lawyer based in London.

Specializing in m&a. Corporate negotiations.

He was on kingdom 29.

The hijack.

Why aren't they letting paramedics down there?

We need to deal with the fire first.

He's been trying to get German police

to take him seriously for months.

Gsg 9 are still on hold for orders. What shall I tell them?

Just wait. For now.

The chancellor and mayor's office are waiting for updates.

We have three million people with no transport system

and panic starting.

The chancellor will not wait.

This is now an operational command center.

Anyone who doesn't report to me, set up elsewhere.

Everyone else, out.

- Mr. Diehl. - Yes?

The map.

I wanna see where he is and where he's heading.

- Nothing else. - Okay.

Okay, good.

I want a direct line to all tactical units.

Of course.

And I want confirmation that the whole network has been evacuated.

- That's today. - What?

Nelson's son, Kai,

was killed in a car accident a year ago today.

He believes Kai was murdered

by John Bailey-brown.

And now he wants, what, justice?

Or...

Revenge.

Okay, so this is the man who Sam believes murdered his son.

It's dated 25th July.

Immigration at the port of Hamburg.

And he thinks it's John Bailey-brown?

He spent months tracking him.

He says this proves Bailey-brown is in Germany.

And now Mr. Nelson is a murderer too.

Check Hamburg border records, cctv.

I'm going to speak to him again.

You're going to use the girl?

Unless you have a better idea?

I can help. Guide her.

Reading men like this, extremists of all kinds,

it's what I do.

If we can get under his skin, maybe we can end this.

Jannowitzbrücke.

Who has access to this camera?

No one. It's internal.

You sure?

- Doesn't go to control? - No.

They can't see us in here?

No, it just goes to this hard drive.

- Where? - There's a hard drive in there.

Exactly.

Sam?

How we doing, Clara?

I'm sorry, we haven't been able to locate the man you're looking for yet.

We're trying.

Okay, he will have very powerful people working for him.

You need to be asking yourself who that is.

We're looking into the Hamburg cctv. But we need more time.

And your assurance that no one else will be hurt.

Photo first.

Okay.

I know you're a father, Sam.

There are families on this train.

Children.

They must be so scared.

Who's there with you?

We want to understand. So we can help.

Because I don't think you want to hurt anyone.

- Not really. - You...

You do not know anything about me, okay?

We know why you want John Bailey-brown.

We know what he did to your son.

I'm sorry...

About Kai.

Whoever's there with you, I want to speak to them. Now.

Hello, Sam.

My name is Peter Faber.

I'm with British intelligence.

I want to end this without anyone else dying.

Okay, Faber, you don't know anything about me

or what I'm fucking capable of. Okay?

What happened to that passenger, it can happen to someone else

if I do not get exactly what I need.

They haven't got the fire under control. We can't go down there.

And the robot?

Thank you.

Excuse me...

Thank you.

I must interrupt you to bring some breaking news.

With the police refusing to comment officially...

we are now hearing reports from an anonymous source:

there has been a fatality following an explosion at alexanderplatz.

Great, so now we have a leak.

Get your shit together.

If the passengers find out, it might force Nelson's hand.

It's all over social media.

You said it's all about control, what did you mean?

The stuff in his file.

Every detail, it is meticulous.

He spent a year putting this together.

So he's a clever man.

Patient man.

And he kills an innocent passenger randomly,

within an hour.

No way back.

Does that strike you as odd?

He's angry and desperate.

But he didn't flinch.

We all saw that.

He showed absolute self-mastery.

Killing someone for the first time, it exacts a price.

I've seen it.

Not for him.

Where are we on Bailey-brown?

We have the Hamburg entry lists.

Okay, and?

Nothing that's flagging as an alias, or counterfeit.

We're waiting for the footage

but I doubt we'll find anything conclusive.

We're gonna run out of time.

Shit.

Sorry, whose bike is this?

He went into your carriage. Freddie, I think.

The mandarin.

Whatever he is. He's... He's gone to check on the driver.

Then he won't need his bike. Can I? Sorry.

Sam went too. The English guy.

What?

There's been an incident on the u-bahn.

- Sorry, what did you say? - What?

It says a bomb threat on the u8.

Well, that's not us.

Well, it is now. Since we diverted.

What if we're the incident?

You've seen this thing in Berlin?

What?

Reports are coming in of a suspected terrorist incident...

- Subway hijack. - On Berlin's u-bahn.

There are rumors of an explosion. The entire network has been closed...

What the hell?

Hello!

Hello!

Not a fucking word. Okay?

- Yeah? Hey. - Hey.

Is everything all right with... With the train?

The passengers are getting a little worried.

No, everything's under control.

The driver asked for my help.

- Okay. - Yeah.

Just because

there's some stuff on the news about a terror alert.

Really?

I haven't heard anything about that.

I would just get back to your seat, yeah?

- Yeah? - Yeah.

Everything's fine.

- All right. - Yeah.

Okay.

Is everything okay up there?

- I just told you. - I'm just checking.

All good, thanks.

All right.

What's going on?

Something's up with this train.

Is Sam okay?

I don't know, but something weird is going on.

All right. Let's go. Kids, who's up for a quick quiz?

You heard an explosion?

I don't know. I just couldn't hear anymore.

We were already halfway out of the station when they said it detonated.

It's all a bit of a blur.

Well let's try to get some clarity...

They're sending the robot in right now.

Good, although it won't help us find John Bailey-brown.

And we don't have long...

I spoke to a contact in the justice department.

And the reason there is no record of John Bailey-brown

is that no one at all entered the port of Hamburg

between 8:00 A.M. and 9:00 A.M. on the 25th of July.

Which is, I'm gonna say, unlikely.

Someone deleted it?

The data was accessed from an ip address outside of your organization

traced to schwäbische strasse?

Schwäbische strasse?

Schwäbische strasse.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I'll call you back.

It was you who deleted the records from Hamburg.

- This is above her security clear... - schwäbische strasse.

It's the location of a very unremarkable building

loaned by the German government to the British

for deniable operations, shall we say?

That's why you're here in Germany, isn't it?

MI5 have John Bailey-brown.

And you're protecting him.

Why?

I don't think you grasp the situation.

A man is dead,

and we are about to become a global news story because of you.

Give me what I need, right now,

or I will brief the media that British intelligence have Bailey-brown

and are gambling with the lives of innocent civilians.

There's a few minutes left, Clara.

Have you got me what I need?

I'm sorry, Sam. We're still working on it.

- Lang. - They know we've got him.

How?

Lock him down, take a photo.

Find out who the fuck talked.

Okay, chief.

- We have a visitor. - Copy.

Okay, so MI5 has come to see how German intelligence handles things.

Where is he?

Can't even piss in peace.

What?

What?

Sam?

You were right.

John Bailey-brown is here. In Berlin.

Send a photo to the number I gave you.

As soon as I receive that we can talk about ending this.

Here.

Actually really horrible.

Well, it's a beer and a double cheeseburger for you then after this.

Once this is over.

I'm plant-based.

You might even make it to your very important meeting.

I'm a sustainability consultant.

But it's bullshit, really. Just...

Green washing for rich companies.

Well, once I get this photo...

You'll be able to do what you want.

I received something.

You got it?

Yeah.

Is that it, Sam? That's what you wanted, yes?

Yes. Thank you, Clara.

So...

Nelson contacted you directly at the embassy?

With the cctv still?

Yeah.

You're new to all this.

Let me guess, no one there takes you seriously.

They foist all the oddballs and eccentrics off on you.

Tell me why you have Bailey-brown. Why he isn't in prison yet.

We've been working with German intelligence to bring him in.

He's a known flight risk...

So we had to keep it under wraps.

We're going to extradite him to the UK where he will go to prison.

Just need to get my ducks in a row first.

Right.

Anyway, Nelson's given you a rather more interesting day

than you could have imagined.

And, well, you'll appreciate the irony, Ms. Thatcher.

Sam and I.

We both want the same thing.

Bailey-brown to be brought to justice for what he did.

I'm in position.

Got eyes on her now.

Yeah, copy that.

Look at this.

Could be something?

How?

So where's the smoke coming from?

I could open a bike shop, or a juice bar.

Yeah.

Berlin needs more of them.

A bike shop with a juice bar inside.

Okay, Sam. You have the photo. What now?

I...

Sam?

Are you there?

Sam?

Sam?

Are you there?

Now I need John Bailey-brown brought to me.

Or what happened to Freddie...

Will happen to someone else.

That won't be necessary.

Because I have a better offer.

Fuck.

I will have John Bailey-brown brought

- to the public prosecutor's office today. - Ada. What?

In full view of the media.

He will face justice.

True justice, for what he did.

I swear I'll do this for you.

For your son.

That's what you want, isn't it?

But it's not what I asked for.

Now bring him to me.

This is a good outcome, isn't it?

If this guy really killed your son, you can say it sent you crazy.

- They'll go easy on you. - You don't understand.

Take what she's offering.

You think this is me?

That if I just wanna let you go, I could, but I can't.

Because this isn't me doing this.

It's the mother of my son.

- Okay? - These people they...

They want the police to believe it's all you?

That's why they chose today.

The anniversary.

These people killed my son, and now they're gonna kill his mother.

- You all right there, pal? - You lost or something?

No, no. Just enjoying the scenery.

Fire brigade are saying it started in the bin.

Okay.

And he shut off the cameras?

No bomb?

Looks like it. We will know more soon.

What's the latest?

He faked it all.

There were no explosives, so go ahead.

You can say, "I told you so."

We have units in position at the next station.

If he really is bluffing, it's time to take back control.

You all right there?

Is there a knack to this that I'm not getting?

It's called a chainsaw.

You didn't order a cab, did you?

- No, why? - I wondered.

Just... it's that bloke down the Lane.

- What bloke? - Some twat in a black SUV,

too clean to be local.

It's probably nothing.

- This is winter. - We found a burner phone

in the bomb maker's apartment.

The last number called was Sam Nelson's.

It was arson at alexanderplatz.

The whole thing looks like a hoax.

No, no, no. It can't be.

The briefcase the hostage carried had no bomb.

Listen to me. There is a bomb.

If it wasn't in that briefcase, then it's somewhere else.

This is your chance to end this.

I am not sending marksmen.

- If there's another bomb... - not marksmen.

Let me speak to him face to face.

Let me end this without anyone dying.

It's too risky.

Let an old spy ply his trade.

I've worked with killers for 30 years.

And Sam Nelson is not one of them.

Thirty-five minutes.

What?

You said it would take 30 minutes before they realized you were bluffing.

But it's been 35.

How will we know?

That they've figured it out.

- I hate this. - What the fuck?

Well, there's your answer.

Everybody stay calm, all right? Kids, stay calm.

Use your phones if you have to.

Everybody... we're gonna stay calm.

Sir, sir, what's going on? Are we stuck?

We're staying calm.

What happened to the power?

It's a fail-safe. Automatic.

Because of the fire spreading.

We are trying to get the power back on for you.

How quickly can you get the power back on?

A few minutes.

Listen to me. If this train is not moving very, very soon,

I will hold you responsible for escalating this.

Understood.

Yes, all your demands will be met.

We just need a little time to fix the power.

They won't turn it back on.

The power cut, does it kill everything?

Yeah. No Wi-Fi, no live feeds.

It's a complete black hole.

The only thing is... Hey, hey, hey. What are you doing?

It's only a switch for the emergency light. Here.

- Wi-Fi and phone signal's gone. - No way.

Shit.

And there's no way we can turn the power on ourselves?

No. No way. It's all centralized.

Do we have anything we can use?

Like a real bomb? Weapon?

They're not gonna arm a guy they're trying to set up.

They gave you nothing?

This is a game of poker.

You don't have to have the best hand to win, you just have to have the best bluff.

And what if they call that bluff?

What then?

Do I have to die for real?

Excuse me.

Where are the trains parked at night?

Lost property is rudolfstrasse.

I'm looking for a bomb.

Ladies and gentlemen. This station is closed.

Please head to the nearest exit.

Ladies and gentlemen. This station is closed.

Please head to the nearest exit.

And you're sure it was parked here last night?

Yes.

Is that snow?

Sir, I need to get off the train.

- Right now. - It won't be long.

You've been saying that for two hours now, and we all know it's bullshit.

They're talking about a bomb, sir. I'm scared.

Listen, we're... we're all scared.

Okay? We're all scared.

Shit.

I...

I need to talk to you.

Outside in the tunnel.

What about me?

We're just gonna make sure that the tunnel's safe.

They haven't blocked us in like last time. Okay, I just need you to stay here

just a little bit longer. Okay?

It'll be over soon, right?

Hey.

I'm not gonna hurt you. Or anyone on this train.

All right, but I just need you to trust me.

And if you can do that, I'll make sure everyone gets home... safe.

So, you want to check they're not trying to block us again?

No. On the train they've got eyes on us somehow.

I don't know how...

But they're listening to us.

With the power off in the dark, I think we can end this.

How do you want to do this?

You've got landlines right?

Down in the tunnels?

- Yes. They're like - every 500 meters. - Okay.

I want you to run to one of these landlines.

Okay, get the British police on the line.

All right. Tell them Marsha Smith-Nelson is in danger.

Okay, Marsha Smith-Nelson.

Is that your...

- Your kid's mother? - Yes, that's her.

If we get Marsha to safety, everyone goes home.

Okay.

- Okay. - Okay.

- Shit. - I'm sorry.

What is that?

What do you mean?

Sam, come in. Are you there? Sam?

Otto, what's going on?

Fuck.

What is it?

They told me Marsha would die if I failed.

It's... it's all of us, too.

- I say we open the doors. - It isn't safe, guys.

If the power comes back on...

I'll take my chances, thank you.

All right, Fran. Get your fingernails in there...

- Hey. Hey. You'll get people killed. - Fuck off!

Hey! Oi, what are you doing?

Wait. Otto, come here.

Otto.

Otto, can you hear me?

Why aren't you answering?

Is someone there?

- Hello? - Hello?

- Hello? - Hello?

- What are you doing? - You wanted me to go. I can still go.

- Alert the police. - No. No fucking way. Okay?

You see all those people on that train? Your passengers?

Okay?

We just gotta keep going.

How? By killing Freddie?

They're not paying me enough for that.

- Let me go. - Hey. Listen.

No one is dying today.

If you need help and you're unable to talk...

Just press the green button.

Hey! Wait... no... no...

Shit! Hey!

Wait!

Just do it!

Fucking kill me! I don't care!

This will go a lot easier if you just listen to me.

Who sent you?

What's going on?

Come on!

- Come on. - Yeah.

Fuck.

What the fuck?

- Why did you... why did you do it? - Go back to your seat.

No. No, why did you...

I'm so sorry.

What are we going to do?

Where's the train?

Down the tunnel. One hundred meters.

- Go, team. - Follow.

Stay close. Tight formation.

Stay right behind me.

If anything happens, we'll pull you out.

This way.

They're in position.

Faber is nearing the train now.

Gsg 9 are moving into position to cover him.

I hope this is the right decision.

Get me wolf. Faber may be down there, but this is my operation.

And Sam?

What'll happen to him?

My primary concern is the 200 passengers on the train.

Hang back.

It's fine.

Sam.

It's me, Peter Faber.

Come and talk to me, Sam.

Let's resolve this.

I know you're not a killer, Sam.

You don't want to hurt anyone.

I know you're just a father grieving his son.

Go on, keep coming...

On the platform...

What is that?

Stay here, we'll check it out.

We have a visual. Somebody on the platform.

What do you mean? Who is it?

Move up. Cover me.

Wolf, do you copy? Who is it?

It's the passenger. The one with the briefcase.

What? He's alive?!

Negative.

Now what?

Clara, I warned you what would happen if you escalated things.

Sam.

I would like to end this now.

As I'm sure would you.

If only it was that easy.

This train is rigged with explosives.

Turn the power back on and let me pass,

or you'll have a lot more than one dead body on your hands.

What happened?

Hello? What happened?

Thank fuck for that.

Our orders are to stand down.

Listen up!

We've got to let the train go through.

Call me Mr. Pitiful

baby, that's my name now

call me Mr. Pitiful

that's how I got my fame

but people just don't want to understand that

what makes a man feel so blue?

They call me Mr. Pitiful

'cause I lost someone just like you now

they call me Mr. Pitiful

this everybody know now

they call me Mr. Pitiful

'most every place I go

but nobody seems to want to understand that

how can a man sing such a sad song?
