Original subtitles

Michael Sharpe, I'm arresting you on suspicion of armed robbery.

It was my deposit box that they stole.

What was in it that was so valuable they wanted to steal it?

Evidence. Valuable enough to keep me alive.

You had Sharpe in your custody and now he's dead.

Guy had his kid dragged out his arms, fam. Yeah, she had her kidneys taken out

while she was still breathing.

That's him.

You're a good man.

Who did his best for his family.

Just here.

What? Here, good.

Ali's school just sent me a text. They're saying she's absent.

You did drop her off, right? Yeah, of course I did. What, at the gates? You

her go in?

I know your house.

Your children got to school.

They are safe.

As long as I'm safe.

Hey, bitch! No!

What the hell is wrong with you, man? We have to let him go, man. You don't

understand. I understand. He played you for a damn fool and you had him in your

house.

So, what do you want to do?

I want to keep my family safe.

Okay.

Arrangements are being made.

As of now, you're temporarily excused. I'm just saying a true officer would not

let a dangerous criminal go when he has a chance to catch him. And a fucking

true father would make sure their daughter gets to school safely.

This is on you, Bish.

I'm not having this.

You both made judgment calls.

Live with the consequences.

Bish.

Yeah, that's right.

Don't call me, usual.

Hey.

Look, there's some truth to what you're saying.

But you did act like a father and not a cop.

Your family is in danger until we take Baku down.

We'll move you to a safe house tonight.

It won't be for long.

I promise.

What's about being with you?

You have enough choice, sweetheart.

I think you'll keep the bed warm, okay? All right.

Go, go, go, go! Go, go, go, go!

It's gone.

Is Bacall really coming to kill her?

Ronald?

Your daughter's asking you a question.

It's okay.

We're safe.

Would you take a bullet?

Would you bite the hook on?

I've fallen to my knees and yes, the war's already won.

Through dark night we burn.

They're part of our detail.

Are they?

I appreciate the strain you're under.

It's my job to alleviate that.

It's important that you stay in the house at all times.

Yeah. Good luck with that.

Sure.

You don't know me very well, do you?

Bit of my phone.

What about Snap?

You should have done this last night.

Anyone could know we're here now.

But it's a piece of my human right.

Mum? Ali, give him the phone.

Give him the phone, Ali.

We'll do our best to make you comfortable.

Not much fucking chance of that.

Sorry, girls.

This isn't where we want to be right now.

Thanks for seeing me, sir. I just wanted to... I don't have long, Bishop. What

is it?

Well, I just came here to talk about your son, sir.

Well?

Well, I just, uh... I think he needs the... He is exactly where he needs to

Safe. Off the street.

Well, I was going to say that he needs you, sir, but you interrupted, so I

didn't get a chance.

As a father or director general?

A father.

What do you really want to say, Bishop?

I just think that right now, it's important that you are there for him.

You know what I've always admired about you?

Tell me.

You just say it as it is.

I do, yeah.

And you're comfortable with that. Mm -hmm.

And you are right where you are supposed to be.

You've reached your summit.

You've touched your zenith.

And along the way, you and my son have enjoyed a successful partnership.

Until now.

He has desires beyond today.

He has a lust for enhancement.

Some people might call that ambition.

And nothing is forever is it?

When he's ready, there are opportunities for him.

Anyway, I just came to tell you that your son needs you. I'm sorry if we got

wires crossed.

Gonna take one of these in case I need to holler at you.

Hold tight, King, yeah?

Are you following me? Do what?

Are you fucking following me?

No, mate. I'm just getting some crisps. Show me your ID.

Bacore sent you, didn't he?

Who do you work for?

I don't even know what I'm doing. You're working for Bacore, aren't you? Please.

I'm just a lorry driver.

He's scared of Bakur.

I really need him to fucking talk.

You're not helping yourself with him. You tell us where Bakur is and we can

discuss the deal.

You think about it.

Everything you've learned about ethical practice, your internal moral compass,

your compassion and understanding, your humanity, I want you to forget it all

and do whatever you need.

Do you think you can do that officer?

Bishop?

Yeah.

My man.

Um, CCTV in the compound.

It'd be great if it could break down for an hour.

I told those men what you do for a living.

That you make profit at the expense of innocent young lives.

And look, the CCTV cameras have stopped working.

Strange coincidence, don't know what happened.

So listen, I need you to tell me where Bakur is.

Okay. It's all yours, boys.

Okay, stop!

Are you serious?

You think you can intimidate me by using some random builders?

They haven't got the balls!

Okay, guys.

Guys, thanks, man. Don't worry about it. I'm gonna deal with it. Keep the money.

Can I borrow this?

Cheers. Thanks so much. Don't worry about it.

No, I'm not going to ask you again.

Okay, I don't!

You're a wise man.

Come on.

Come on, pipe, pick up. Jesus.

The person you are calling is not available.

Okay, thanks to Ghazim, this is what we found out about Bakur.

He owns this restaurant.

We pulled this image from CCTV from the off -license next door. It was grainy.

But it's definitely him.

No, he thinks he's safe.

Hiding in plain sight, using this restaurant as a front while making a

trafficking kids' body parts.

But you remember what he does and you keep that image in your head when we go

there.

Kamali Monroe, I need you in position A.

Nell, you're going to be with me.

What about me?

You're going to be in surveillance.

But back at base.

Any questions?

I need a word.

Shoot. Not with Jonesy around.

After what happened last time.

In private.

Prep.

What's up?

You want my ten cents worth?

You're going to get it anyway.

You think catching Bucco will make you feel better?

He harvests children's body parts now.

You think Pint's gonna forgive you for fucking up if you deliver his head on a

plate? It wasn't a fuck -up, all right?

Take the emotion out of it, all right?

He's a target, not some form of absolution.

Still want his head on a stick, though, wouldn't you?

Oh, yeah.

Good.

I'm here.

I'm trying to lay the table.

No, I was here first.

Dad!

Okay? Can I get your sign, Joan?

Hi. Thank you. Thank you so much for coming.

There

you

are, my darlings. A little surprise.

Thank you.

Oh, for God's sake. What a gift.

Did you manage to bring anything with you?

No, we had to leave immediately.

No work?

Um, of course I've had, I don't think, on my plate, Charlotte, but... I've just

got people breathing down my neck.

I suppose I can fend them off for a bit.

Oh, he's a barrel of laughs.

Oi! Ronnie!

Shh!

Did you hear that?

It's probably just the wind.

Ron, there's no one there. Is everything okay, sir? Take the kids upstairs.

Ron! Upstairs now! Go on!

They're going outside. There's someone out there.

Go. Sir? Get your fucking hands off me. What are you doing? Sir, you need to let

us deal with this.

We will not have a still man, all right?

Come on!

Show yourself!

Pull over.

Monroe, come early. I need you to go around the back. Make sure nobody gets

Let me know when you're in position.

Yo, bitch, we're in provision.

Make it quick. Think's around here.

OK.

I want you to cover the door. I'm going to deal with him. OK, you need to back

up and make sure he's out, yeah?

Hey, hey, stay there!

Stay there. Where's your boss? Where's Bakur?

Huh? Where did he... Lee!

Don't run or I'll be forced to shoot you.

Missile!

Suspect down

I

couldn't save him

Fuck with a man's family.

How are you enjoying your new living arrangements?

I can't do this anymore.

I'm out.

I want to jump.

Uncle, Bishop's here!

Come on, man.

We can get back to normal. He's gone.

Baker and his crew are finished, man.

Bishop.

I'm Albert.

I'm taking the job.

What do you mean you're taking the job?

I'm handing in my resignation, bro.

What about me?

What about me?

I can't drive that car on my own, no?

What about my family?

You can't just leave me, man.

What about Sharp's murder? You don't want to know what happened with that?

my three girls.

I can't put my family through this shit anymore, bro.

It's safe for you to go home, man. I bet you.

It's done.

It's too late.

Undo it, man.

Monroe, man, I just want to say you've been doing great work. Thank you so

Hug me back, man.

I appreciate it, seriously.

All right, let go, let go.

I'll drop you.

I knew this wouldn't have a fairytale ending.

Everyone has a breaking point.

And I totally respect your decision.

I'm really pissed off with you, Pike.

Not because I don't think you made the right call.

Not because I don't understand that you need to protect your flock.

And not because I don't think you're capable of great things in other

departments. But because I'll fucking miss you.

Because you're a really, really good copper.

You're just a good man, Ron.

I need to take my family home.

Ben.

Fancy a hot date?

I'm not a quitter.

Just dinner?

Dinner what?

I thought I'd introduce you to my family.

I don't love Chinese food, you know.

Fucking hell, you're all sick.

Have a dumpling, Aaron.

Oh, yes, thank you. Please.

Like a man who eats.

Especially an older one.

She usually only goes for the young, good -looking guys.

Mum, let's go and throw out dessert, yeah?

You like my sister?

I'm gonna eat you again, bro.

That was good, man. That was good, man. But do you?

Uh, well, I mean... You know, she's... Uh,

Marie.

You know, we work together, so, you know, she's... Yeah, you know, we're

of... Don't you like her?

I don't know why, because she's Chinese.

No, I didn't say it. I just, you know...

We're kind of, but... I'm only joking.

You're all right.

For a copper.

Older copper.

Sharp was killed for a reason, and we were taken off the case for the same

reason. I mean... And why was Sharp never charged?

I mean, he was arrested, but he was never charged. I mean, you know, he was

arrested once for drug trafficking.

Once I could figure out, but twice, no.

I tell you what, if Pike thinks I can't do this on my own... Then he's wrong.

I'm going to figure this out, even if it's the... What?

What?

I'm feeling quite fuckable about you when you're on one.

Yeah.

Yeah.

No.

Yeah.

Do you actually live here, or did you both live?

Well, I mean... It's a work in progress.

I couldn't stay at Pike's forever.

That looks comfortable.

It's romantic.

No, it's timeless, though.

Can you just not argue for one single solitary second? Can you just try that?

Well, can't you just shut up?

Best!

Graham Borla.

Get off my fucking property.

What are you going to do, spanner me to death?

I'm here to ask you about Michael Sharp.

Who? I think you heard me.

Name and rank.

You said I was on the force. I said name and rank.

Aaron Bishop, NCA.

Let's talk about Michael Sharp.

You arrested him twice, and both times he got off, and you don't strike me as

the type of person that would let that go.

I'm retired.

Leave me alone.

Never gonna happen.

Seems morality got the better of you, Aaron, eh?

The conscious can be a dangerous thing, son.

Why? What happened?

Why was Sharp never charged?

Told you. I retired.

For a peaceful life.

Good for you, mate.

But what about your conscience?

Why don't you let your sense of morality get the better of you and give me a

hand?

Off my property.

Top top.

In

fun respects,

you could call us the gatekeepers of the gatekeepers, whose job it is to keep

the whole show on the road.

Opportunity awaits young man.

A chance to emulate the concept of your father.

You all right? Yeah, yeah.

Uh, parcel for you.

Where is it?

At the front desk.

If you want a secretary, ask Monroe.

You all careful.

All right.

Bishop. No.

Are we cool?

Uh, yeah, we're cool.

As in everything between us is all right, yeah?

Yeah, why couldn't it be?

So, what happened last night, you know, we're good with that, yeah?

Yeah, we're good with that.

Business as usual?

Business as usual.

Okay. Good?

Mm -hmm.

That's not us.

I'm working.

Not sure I can live with you if you take this job.

You can't live with me if I don't.

is something I've got to do.

I'm not here to argue with you, Pike.

But you need to know the truth before you sign your life for me.

Sharp was never arrested because he couldn't be.

And there's a reason he was never arrested.

That's you and Sharp.

He wanted us off the Sharp case because he didn't want us to know the truth.

He humiliated me because we were getting too close.

I wanted to protect you.

No, you didn't.

Everything I've done is to protect you.

Yes, I knew Sharp back in the 80s.

Yes, he's always been bad news.

I wanted you off the case.

Because nothing good has ever come from our attempts to put him behind bars.

So why didn't you just tell us that you knew him, Dad?

Why didn't you tell us that he was an ex -cop?

That was 30 years ago.

I told you we came across him.

That he flipped the net a number of times.

And how did he manage that, Dad?

Huh?

You and Sharp were doing something together.

And now he's dead.

And I want to know why. I have no idea why he's dead, and I have no idea who

killed him. He's a bent cop, and you protected him.

Look, for once, just tell the truth.

For once in your life, just tell the fucking truth. Careful, boy. What was it

that you were shot with? You're on thin ice.

Son, there are things I want to tell you, but you want things to be simple.

Good, bad, black, white, but this is complicated, Junior.

Get off me!

All I've ever wanted was the best for you.

You made me leave jobs to get me out of the way.

To protect yourself, your image, your legacy.

It's always been about you, Dad.

Some wannabe middle -class white man's puppet with a fucking club tie.

And a secret handshake.

Fuck me.

I can't believe it.

Why did I ever look up to you?

All I ever wanted to do was make you proud.

More for me.

Do you know what?

I know who you are.

And I'm going to find out what you did.

Hey, what's happening, Pike?

Yo, Monroe.

Hey, hand Bish your phone. I need to talk to him real quick.

Uh, he's not at your desk, bruv.

We'll find him, Monroe. It's important, man. Come on.

It's Pike.

He needs to speak to you.

Only if you're sorry.

You do.

Only if you're sorry.

Nah, man. I need to know that he's sorry.

All right, all right. Look, I'm sorry.

Yeah? He says he's sorry.

He said that? Yeah.

Yo, man, I need to hear it with my own ears.

Bish, I showed my dad the photos.

He looks scared, man.

He was on his phone. He's acting all funny. I'm hailing him now.

Yeah, come on, you can track Pike's coordinates and meet us there. You're on

I've traced Pike's phone to Elizabeth Drayton Estate, June 08, SE 14.

No! Officer down!

Elizabeth Trayton and State, June away, SC -14!

Dad, no!

Bishop in pursuit of shooter!

Fuck!

Get a fucking ambulance in now!

I'm police! Get off the bike!

Get off the bike!

He said himself he's a hired gunner.

I said, look, it's not a reason.

What do you want me to do with this, Pike?

The right thing.

You do know what that means?

It's me.

I found something out. It stinks, and it's not right or fair.

I said, John, I'm not what you're doing.
