GRUNTING

CLAIRE: 'At least Martin
actually gives a shit about me.'

JOHN: 'Oh, that's where
you're going?'

No, wait. Wait, wait.
I don't think we should.

Fatemah's giving a talk at
a university in Liverpool next week.

You honestly think
they'd use a chemical nerve agent

as toxic and lethal as sarin?

I had my first threat to life
ten years ago.

If I don't see evidence,
I am not cancelling.

MEHREEN: 'I don't work
for Qasem Asadi.

'Qasem Asadi works for us.'

He needs to make it look like
he's going ahead with it,

but at the crucial moment,
the device won't work.

RUDY: 'That flag on Jordan's phone,
it's come good.'

BEESTON: Let me get rid of him.

I warned him not to come back.

QASEM: No.
I will handle the journalist.

DOOR RATTLES

Craig, show Hossein the device.

QASEM SPEAKS FARSI

I need to just check it all out
before we get some...

INDISTINCT CHATTER

I see you're doing all you can
to blow my cover.

I know you're playing Six.

I've seen the lab.
I'm not.

I'm on your side, John. Trust me.

Ehsan is dead. Jordan is dead.

You don't seem to care
who gets hurt along the way.

I know Mehreen
explained the plan to you.

The plan is bollocks.

You have no idea how fine
the line is I have to tread.

I must think of my family.

Your family? Why, what is it?

What is it with your family?

I appreciate
that you have to trust me.

Look, I'm sure you were one
of the good guys once.

You won't be the first agent
that's lost his way.

VOICES APPROACH
There is a way back.

Make sure everything's spot on,
and then we're off.

You will stay here
until our business is concluded.

We have come to an arrangement.

Keep him here until
you have disposed of Jordan's body.

What about Ehsan
and my missing drugs?

He knows nothing.

Right, we'll get you back
to the hotel.

Wes, you stay here and watch him.
WESLEY: All right, boss.

RINGING TONE

SIMONE: 'Where the fuck are you?'

I'm at some premises
near Warrington.

You need to get into them.

'The operation's been taken
out of our hands.'

What?

'Qasem Asadi's an agent
working for Six.'

I know he is.

I was informed last night
Mehreen's taken over.

She's running the whole show
from Six.

To be frank, I don't think
she ever stopped working for them.

We need to get to the university
and stop Fatemah's talk.

I found a lab here.
It must be for making sarin.

I found Jordan's body there.

But senior management have been
spoken to by the top at Six.

It's a done deal.

'You need to get back
to London now.'

Shit.
PHONE CHIMES

PHONE BEEPS

'Fatemah, you have to cancel.'

Look, some new intelligence
has come to light.

I'm not cancelling.

But I think there's a risk.
A real risk of mass casualties.

And what about the brave women
in Evin Prison?

Women who have actually
been silenced?

Someone needs to speak
for my sisters,

and I will give them a voice.

HE EXHALES

Morning.
Hm.

Can I help you, sir?
Oh, I'm looking for the bathroom.

Whoa!

Put your hands in the air.

Get down on your knees.
On your knees!

Where is it? WHERE IS IT?!

Where's what?

It's OK. Police. Move along.

Sorry.

Ladies and gentlemen, Fatemah Feyzi.

APPLAUSE
If I may...

Thank you for having me.

I'm delighted to be here
and speak with you

about the current state of Iran.

BEESTON: Wes?

Wes... Wes, what the...?
Where is he?

Sorry, Craig.

PHONE BUZZES

What?

'Wesley's fucked up.

'The journalist has escaped.

'Are you sure he knows nothing?

'General?'

Continue with the plan.

LINE DISCONNECTS

While the big men decide
what weapons Iran can have or not

and pontificate as to whether Iran

can ever have a civilian
nuclear power programme,

I speak about other things.

No less important.

Women in Evin Prison in Tehran...
SHUTTER CLICKS

...know they will face beatings,

solitary confinement
and be refused medical treatment.

SHUTTER CLICKS

But surely...

surely they are allowed
letters and food to be sent in

from relatives and loved ones.

Sadly, my sisters
will not be celebrating...

SHUTTER CLICKS
...this New Year, Nowruz.

But I will always give them a voice.

I will not be intimidated.

We must free Iran.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

THEY MURMUR

I'm glad you heard Fatemah speak.

She's a great supporter
of our Persian Centre

and the campaign against the regime.

MEHREEN: See, John?
Nothing happened.

This is my operation.

I found the lab
where they're prepping the sarin.

Qasem needs to make it
look convincing.

So convincing
that they killed Jordan?

You're being played for a fool.

I think there's only one of us
looking foolish right now,

and it's not me.

Qasem said the attack
wouldn't happen, and it didn't.

Yeah, well, maybe this event
wasn't the real target.

No, John, he saved my life.
I trust him.

Well, what do you know
about his life?

What do you know about his wife?
His children?

What's that got to do
with anything?

I spoke to him.

Why don't you do some digging?
You spoke to him?

I think his wife and children
are being threatened,

and he's being coerced
to go through with this attack,

and you're either blind to it,
or you're in on it.

Of course I'm not fucking in on it!

RINGING TONE

WOMAN: 'Mehreen?'

I need a favour.
I need you to track another phone.

RINGING TONE

CLAIRE: 'Hi.'
Where are you?

Just came back to collect my things.

'We're staying at my parents'.'
I didn't realise we were separating.

SHE SIGHS
'I think we should just...

'take some time...

'space apart.'

Please, Claire, don't do this.

No, John, I'm sorry, but...

SHE SIGHS
...we've hit rock bottom, and...

...I just... I just don't think
we can come back from it.

DISCONNECT TONE

'Come on.'

It's been used to communicate
with a burner that Beeston's using.

Sorry, Chief, I've been barred from
helping you with anything like this.

Well, then I need you
to get me some info

on the place I was held
near Warrington.

Check for any suspicious vehicles.
Look, I can't.

They know I dug up that shit
on the doctor for you.

RUDY SCOFFS
Look, at the end of the day,

being a rebel
doesn't come naturally to me.

Look, Rudy,
you don't defeat an adversary

obeying the rules
and following procedure.

You find the weak spot,
and you take them down.

Oh.

Chief?

RUDY SIGHS

Fucking rude of leadership
to go above our heads like that.

I think Mehreen
has either lost control of her agent

or she's colluding with him.

I'm not sure I buy either one
of those theories.

She obviously came over from Six
to keep an eye on you,

spike the investigation.

Everything you said checks out.

Well, except the attack
on Fatemah's event at the university

never materialised.

But I did see where the sarin
was being made.

And they killed Jordan.

This really isn't over. I think
they've simply got a different plan.

Yes, but so long as we have
no evidence to contradict Six,

we're obliged to accept that they're
in charge and acting in good faith.

What if Asadi and Beeston
have simply switched targets?

How many would die
in a sarin attack?

100, 200?

I'm not sure Simone
has a choice here.

I just don't believe Asadi would
spike his own attack last minute.

I can't justify making enquiries
when we've been told to back off.

We've never held a file
on Major General Qasem Asadi.

I know it's frustrating.

I'm not frustrated. I'm angry!
We have been fucked by our own side.

This arrived for you.
Thanks, Janice.

Was it nice sex at least?

Well, it was hardly Champagne

More like two shoves and a squirt.
MARTA LAUGHS

And then he wept with guilt
afterwards.

MARTA EXHALES

How did you and John meet?

We met on a night out.

Wow, old-school.

He chatted you up in a bar?

Not exactly.

He introduced himself.

I identified a vehicle of interest

It's being driven
by two of Beeston's top guys.

It's heading eastbound
towards Manchester.

I see.

We know Fatemah Feyzi
has a handful of other events today

over the Persian New Year.

My assessment is this isn't over.

What about that burner phone
that John left you?

My mate hasn't got back to me yet

on the burner-phone location,
but I've...

Have we really got to do this
all again but with him instead?

Yeah, OK, Greg.

Craig Beeston.'

Yeah.
'He's in Stockport.'

Cool. Cheers, mate.

RUDY EXHALES

Beeston's in Stockport.

Well, that's his patch.
That's where we'd expect him to be.

Fine, Beeston's in Stockport,
but that eastbound van's

making the hairs on the back
of my neck stand on end.

WHISPERING: Every instinct I have
is telling me

we got this wrong, Greg.

Asadi and Beeston are doing this.

And how dare Six
take this away from us?

Fuck them.

Fatemah Feyzi.

It's too late.

I know you don't wanna do this,
Qasem.

Where are they gonna attack Fatemah?

Fatemah Feyzi's not the only
Iranian dissident living here.

This is the biggest day of the year.

The regime is planning a big splash

against its critics in the UK.

On Nowruz, our New Year?

Where? There'll be hundreds
out celebrating.

If you tell me where the attack
will take place, I swear,

we'll get you and your family...
CLAIRE GASPS

Get back! No, please don't.
Take it easy. Let her go.

Qasem, let her go, please.

CLAIRE SOBS

Every year, I'm asking
to get out with my family.

But what I was giving you
was just so good, wasn't it?

All that military, scientific
and nuclear intelligence?

Yeah. It's saved hundreds,
maybe thousands, of lives.

And you kept me in my place.

CLAIRE WHIMPERS

If they'd got me out sooner,
we would not be in this situation,

as the Persians of Stockport
will find out.

sarin was present,

and he's spoken directly
with the President of Iran.

He'll move against the hardliners

They're on their way to the UK

I haven't had a chance

...I think you're staying
at State Threats.

Thank you, boss.

I know you took a big risk
yesterday.

Well, it was a reasoned decision.

And by the way,
I saved your fucking arse.

There are conditions attached to you
staying at State Threats.

You need to retake units one
to three of basic agent handling...

You're sending me back to school?
Don't push your luck, John.

You need to do a refresher on anti-
and counter-surveillance protocol.

Redo the course on security
and personal devices.

And Valerie
will be expecting you later

to go through the operation
beat by beat

from the perspective
of ethical counselling.

What is ethical counselling?

Well done. Rest up.

When are you heading back to Six?

I'm not.
What?

Now Asadi's gone,
Six won't touch me with a bargepole,

so I'm staying at Thames House.

In State Threats?

I know I underestimated you.

Did you really sign off
on Ehsan's death?

Did you kill Asadi to save Claire,

or did he just pose too much of
a threat to the reputation of MI6?

You know the game.
Game? Why, what game is that?

You think Asadi
is the only agent we've got

where innocent people have been
sacrificed to protect them?

And that makes it OK?
Oh, come on.

When you took out Ehsan's killer,
who spared you?

He was an MI6 agent.

You killed one of our own, John.

If you're asking that question,

maybe you should get out
of intelligence work.

Sometimes,
when a sign says "don't touch",

don't touch and walk away.

Good luck, John.

MONA: 'Before he died,
Ehsan asked me a question.'

He said, "If you knew someone
was trying to murder

"an Iranian woman with principles,

"would you do something about it?"

And I said to him, "You would
have to do something about it.

"Because the day after
they come for her,

"they come for another woman
with ideals.

"And the day after that,
they come for your wife.

"And the day after that,
they come for your daughters."
