PHONE RINGS

Pickford here.

This Russian ain't going
anywhere, boss.

He's usually gone by now.

We'll use a secondary location.

Any chance we could delay?

No.

The sediment plume never lifts more
than two metres off the seafloor.

After the mining machine passes,
the mud settles back down.

Yeah, but that...

...that doesn't tally with the number
you have here.

One thing or the other, isn't it?

I mean, this table shows that the
damage caused to marine life

will be fairly horrendous.

That's an old graphic.
It shouldn't be there.

It won't be in the final report.

Because the date is wrong or...?

If you give me more notice...
Just give me the raw data set.

I'll have to ask.

Well, I can't approve something...

Hodge, can I help you?

Aye. Can I borrow the spectrometer?

Not now, OK?

PHONE VIBRATES

Hey, Jia.

I have something for Vincent
before he goes.

Thank you very much.

I made it for you.

What is that?

It's a gift for my friend.

Will you stay for a few more days?

No, I... I think I need to go home.

Are you done?

Yeah.

Hey, dudes. You got evening plans?

Uh, I have to work on a paper.

Same. Hey. You know, I know you want
that Nobel Prize,

but is it really worth missing
my poker game for?

I'll take your money another time.

Sh.

What are you doing?

Get dressed. We need to go.

You're being flown back to China
in the morning.

No, I've still got a week.
I was just with Chen.

He knows. Probably been told to keep
an eye on you.

The plan's changed. We're extracting
you tonight.

I need to gather my research.

Not an option. We have to go now.

I have to get some things
from my lab.

I can't go without them.

HE SIGHS
Grab your outdoor gear. We're going.

If I don't have them,
it's pointless.

I may as well stay.

HE SIGHS

Two minutes. Make it quick.

OK. Thank you.

Shit.

This isn't the way to the airport.

Change of plan.

Different extraction point.
Can you tell me why?

We couldn't secure the airstrip.

Moving to a more discreet location.

Anyone see you go, Hodge?

No, boss.

Does she know the plan?

GUN COCKS
Aye.

You didn't give me enough time
to get all my files.

Well, we'll just have to live
with that.

Sorry. It had to be now.

Let's move out. With me.

Landing zone secure?

Basic sweep. Looks good.

They should have given us more time.

Yeah, why couldn't they?

They didn't want the ship
to deviate course.

Right. Anderson, you move
to overwatch.

Hodge, out front. Cunningham,
you follow the mission.

Helicopter will be here in less
than ten minutes,

then you'll be off.

Someone needs to collect the rest
of my research

and have it sent over to me.

My orders are to get you out.

Let's do this.

Anderson, report.

In position. All clear.

Blue Jay, this is Gannet.

Falcon secure.

I repeat, Falcon secure. Out.

Five minutes.

SHOUTING IN RUSSIAN

Put the gun down! Put down the gun!

THEY SPEAK RUSSIAN

Anderson, where the fuck did
they come from?

Nothing crossed the perimeter.

They must have been here before us.

Don't fire first, no matter what.

Lower your weapons.

We want to talk to you.

Come and talk, then.

Listen.

You're not here. We're not here.

We both understand that.

So this should be done
without blood.

We need to take the Chinese woman.

After that, you can go.

Why do you want her?

This is not a discussion.

You can give her to us or
we have to take her from you.

These are your choices.

Shen Jia, could you walk
to me, please? Don't.

If the helicopter comes,
we'll shoot it down.

Tell them to turn around.

How are you explaining that to the
Norwegian government?

They will ask why British soldiers
crashed on Svalbard.

And that question is only bad
for you.

Shen Jia, come over here.

Don't move.

But they'll kill everyone.

Oh, this is madness.
We could start a war.

You have to take my bag.

Don't do anything.

Please! You can't let them take it.

HE CHUCKLES
There won't be a war.

What will happen is all of
you will die

and we will bury you in the ice.

And your government won't
acknowledge you were ever here.

You can do nothing about this.

Ground team, confirm status.

HELICOPTER WHIRS OVERHEAD

I won't wait longer.

You have to give us the woman
and tell your helicopter to leave,

and do these things now.

Blue Jay, this is Gannet.
We are compromised. Abort.

Boss, what are you doing?

Copy that, Gannet.
Exiting the AO.

Thank you. And now the woman.
You have ten seconds.

Where do you want her to go?

Can't even see with those lights
in our faces.

Five seconds.

Anderson.

No more time.

GUNSHOTS

SHOUTING IN RUSSIAN

Here! Move, move, move, move, move!

Here! Stay down!

GUNFIRE

Have you got her?
Yeah, she's with me.

Suppressive fire. Hodge, move!

Grenade!

GRENADE EXPLODES

YELLING

Don't move.

Grenade!

Granata! Granata!

Get ready to move!

YELLING

Where is she?!

Huh? The woman! Jia!

Shit! Where'd she go?

She was just behind me.

Anderson, can you see Shen Jia?

No, boss. No sign of her.

We're going to make our way back
to the rendezvous. Cover us.

Copy that. Hodge, you copy?

Yes, boss!

Going to take a pop at
those propanes.

Wait out.

Shen Jia could be half a mile away
by now.

Or she could still be out there.
If she stays out here, she's dead.

Radial search for Shen Jia.

Meet back at the hub ERV
in 90 minutes.

90 minutes is nothing.

We'll cover a lot more ground
if we solo it. OK.

Hodge and Cunningham, you cover us
while we're on the move,

then you two split up to locate
Shen Jia. Yes, boss.

Try and give us 20 seconds.

Got it. They're going to have us
flanked in two minutes.

One clip each, yeah.

GUNFIRE

That's me. Good luck. Yeah.

CHILD GIGGLES

CHILD SQUEALS

Have you seen any of my shirts?
I can't find them.

Pff...

It's all changed in the
office anyway.

Robertson's mostly wearing chiffon
and taffeta.

What about you?

Mm, cocktail dress.
Unless it's a murder.

If it's a murder, then I'd wear
a wee ball gown.

You're just anxious about
going back.

Yeah, well, I've got a lot
of catching up to do.

It's not a race.

You can only say that cos

DOORBELL RINGS
SHE SIGHS

Any chance of a cup of coffee?

I won't ask how you got our address.

I was hoping to avoid the office,
at least to begin with.

Oh, God. Everything OK?

Sir Ian's popped round for coffee
at 7am.

It's not going to be good news,
is it?

Kirsten, this is my colleague,
Jasmine Kelly.

Hi. I'm just going to make
sure Poppy's OK with Ferg.

I'll be back in a sec.

What did you do with Ramsay?

He wanted to work abroad.

Luckily for him, I wanted
that as well.

Pops. All good?

FERGAL BABBLES

We'll get right to it,
if you don't mind.

Could you both turn off your phones
first, please?

This isn't a secured space.

The intelligence services don't
normally meet in people's homes.

Thank you.

This morning, a British contractor
was shot dead.

He was working for a minerals
prospecting company in Svalbard,

up in the Arctic Circle.

Was this contractor one of yours?

Daniel Hodge was serving as part
of a four-man special forces team

operating under cover.

Allegedly, he was shot trying to
break into a Russian-owned building.

Is that part true?

No. Shouldn't have been
anywhere near it.

There... is a bigger problem.

Svalbard is strictly demilitarised.

It's nominally under
Norwegian control

because of an historic treaty.

Military use is
absolutely forbidden.

If Russia prove that Hodge is
British military,

they'll claim we violated
the treaty.

That would give them grounds
to challenge

the Norwegians for control.

Does Norway know the truth?

They might suspect.

They haven't asked.

I signed off on the team
being there,

so this is very much my problem.

I assume you'd like it
to be my problem, too.

Actually, we were thinking
it would be best

if Detective Inspector Longacre
did the groundwork

with you overseeing things
from here.

Given that Hodge is established
as a civilian,

a police investigation is our
only way of investigating.

Norway has consented to a British
officer joining them.

You have a lower profile.

AMY EXHALES

Obviously, Kirsten would
be fantastic,

but she's only just going back
to work.

No, I'm ready. I'd love to do it.

And if it needs to look like a
civilian matter, it...

I mean, it works to send me
instead of a DCI.

So, will you help us?

We'll have to talk to Robertson.

Mm.

What kind of situation
are you proposing

to send to my officer into?

It would be a limited investigation.

No, I'm not asking what you
want from us,

I'm asking about the risks.

You've obviously got a problem
with somebody leaking operations.

Yes, we're... looking into that?

I'll bet you bloody are.

Are we breaking the law,
having soldiers there?

We're not breaking any British laws.

Russia obviously have soldiers
there, as well.

Why are the soldiers there?

We've been trialling a seabed
mining programme,

headed up by the Minister for Energy
and Green Transition, Gordon Laity,

scooping rare metals
off the seafloor.

They're the backbone of
green technology.

If we secure our own supply line,

then we can supercharge the push
for green energy.

If we can't, then either we carry
on burning fossil fuels,

or we allow our critical
infrastructure

to be controlled by foreign powers.

So this is a once-in-a-generation
opportunity for us.

Hence having the soldiers there.

The mining facility requires
protection from sabotage.

The Chinese scientist, Shen Jia,

the woman you were trying
to extract,

is she involved in the mining?

No. She presented us
with information relevant

to national security in exchange
for discreet relocation to Britain.

Our guys were trying to facilitate
that when they were ambushed.

So where is she now?

We don't know.

Flights out of Svalbard have
been stopped,

so there's a chance
she's still there.

We'll need a full briefing on
the Shen Jia operation.

I've told you everything I'm allowed
to say about it.

Look...

...even mentioning her name

could place us in a very sticky
situation with the Chinese.

I apologise for approaching
DI Longacre directly.

That was wrong.

But can we please now make
a decision?

Because if you won't help us,
then I'll have to look elsewhere,

and that would be a pity because
I'd be settling for second best

in a situation that could become
very ugly for the UK

if it's mishandled.

We have to keep things contained.

The job is to find out how Hodge
ended up dead in a Russian enclave.

That's it.

Well, this is a big first day back
in the office.

I'm not sure it's ideal.

Mum's going to come see you
tomorrow, by the way.

What?

Is that necessary?

Well, I mean... Well, tomorrow we've
got, what, nursery pick up at 3:30,

Poppy has a table tennis club
at 5:00,

and then, I mean, she's going
to need help with her maths.

I know. I just mean, can't she...?

Yeah. It's good. Thank you.

I'm sure we'll have loads
of fun together.

I'll speak to the Norwegians,

make sure you've got everything you
need by the time you land.

All the background stuff.

You can get a Sergeant to do that.

I know.

I think working below your paygrade
might be your love language.

Have you got a book for the flight?

Mm. Downloaded a manual on
Norwegian police protocols.

That's my girl.

You'll be all right, won't you?

Yeah, she'll be great.

Mm.

Just don't let anyone box you in.

If you struggle to get people
to talk to you...

Yeah, I know how to do the work.

I know.

Hey, I'm going to be safe. OK?

Don't need to worry about me,
all right? I'll look after myself.

And anyway, it's mostly
penguins there.

That's Antarctica.

There aren't any penguins
in the North Pole.

Just loads of polar bears.
Oh, that's a shame.

OK. They said ten minutes.
I've got to go.

I love you. I love you.

If you do need any advice, then...
I know where you are.

OK, let's go.

All right, come on, you.

ENGINE STARTS

PHONE RINGS

Yeah?

Is that Henrik Becken?

That's me.

My name's DCI Amy Silva.

I'll be overseeing the UK side
of the Hodge investigation.

I thought I'd introduce myself.
I'm pleased to meet you.

I'm the director here on Svalbard.

Chief of police, as well.

Is it you who'll be coming here?

No, that'll be one of my officers.

Detective Inspector
Kirsten Longacre.

She's... She's very good.

I see.

So, how can I help you?

I'd like to know where you're up to.

Should we start with the autopsy?

Well, of course, we want to do
an autopsy,

but the Russians refused to release
Mr Hodge's body.

The mayor in Baltegrad
has some trust issues.

He says Nato is plotting
against Russia,

so releasing the body means giving
up evidence

of British activity on Svalbard.

Surely that's illegal.

Oh, it is illegal.

But there's also a need to contain
the situation

and understand the provocation.

OK.

I'm looking at the travel manifest
you sent over to my team.

There's a chartered flight
that left Svalbard

a few hours before Hodge's body
was discovered.

A single passenger,
Professor Vincent Mair.

Yes, he's a professor at a
university in Scotland.

Uh... He spent many years
doing fieldwork here on Svalbard.

I-I know him quite well. He's, um...

He's involved in your seabed
mining project here.

I can also see that he had a
commercial ticket booked

for the following day. Do you know
why he left early?

I have no idea.

OK, well, that'll be all for now.

And, please, look after my officer.

I will collect her myself.

Thank you.

Kirsten Longacre.

I'm Henrik Becken,
director of Svalbard.

It's a very grand title
for so few people.

Thank you for meeting me.

With your red hair, you'll fit in
very well.

It's the colour of Vikings.

Oh. Well, my family's
from Stornoway.

We're probably cousins.

Cousin Kirsten, welcome.

Do you want to put your things
in accommodation first?

No. I'd like to talk to
Mr Hodge's colleagues

as soon as possible, please.

And then I'll need to visit
the crime scene.

I'm a bit worried they will try
to remove his body to Russia

when flights resume.

When will that be?

Two days, maybe. But I wouldn't rely
on that.

There's still boats coming in
and out,

and we can't stop those so easily.

Well, let's go straight there, then.

It's better that I
turn up unannounced.

HE CHUCKLES
Oh, they know you're here.

They have a man watching
the airport.

There's a road to Baltegrad, but...

...it's faster to get there by boat,
if the ice allows it,

so I'll... I'll take us there now.

You're required to carry a rifle.

I'm lending you one of mine.
Two magazines.

You can shoot?

In Britain, we prefer our police
hit people with sticks.

HE CHUCKLES

Well, that might not work
with a polar bear.

I've done firearms training.

Good. Keep it loaded and
on your shoulder.

They move fast.

UNTRANSLATED ANSWERPHONE MESSAGE

Please leave a message.

Do you understand how it is here,
the laws for this investigation?

I've read up on a little bit.

Norway has sovereignty,
but it's subject to conditions.

We have to grant equal access
to all resources.

So if I'm accused of doing
you any favours,

it won't go well in Oslo.

They're nervous about everything
in this situation.

I gather you don't normally have
much crime here.

Almost nothing.

People forgot about us
for a long time,

but now the ice melts
and that changes things.

You see that glacier?

It's three quarters the size it was
when I first arrived here.

And with that, comes the
new people and...

...well, new problems.

How so?

China wants ice-free trade routes,

and others, like your own
government, come in and mine

the seabed for rare metals.

And what about Russia?

Well, they want to control
Svalbard outright.

That's why Baltegrad exists.

It's a... foothold.

We can't give them any reason
to question Norway's sovereignty

on Svalbard. Do you understand?

I do.

I do.

Yep.

This will be the world's
last gold rush.

And we...

...we will be the frontier town.

Sorry.

Professor Mair?

DCI Silva.

Excuse me, do you mind if
I speak with you?

Can't talk now. The work I'm doing
is time sensitive.

So is mine.

You're not going to ask why
I need to speak to you?

It's fine. I can ask the questions.
I've got quite a few, actually.

Why were you on Svalbard yesterday?

Well, I'm a government adviser.

We're running a mining
project there.

I was there to review an
environmental impact assessment

we've commissioned.

Sorry, I-I can't take you in.
There's regulations.

Well, we can stay here.

So you booked a flight
to come back today,

but you came home early.

I'd finished my work.

You'd spent several thousand pounds
chartering a private flight.

Did you pay for that personally,
or is that taxpayer funded?

I paid for it.

I'm delivering a speech at the
UN Climate Change Conference,

so I felt I needed more
time to prepare.

Do you write your speeches for Cop
in your lab?

I'm sorry? It's just you're not at
your desk.

There was a death on Svalbard.

Who was it?

I'm going to ask you again why you
changed your travel plans

at the last minute.

Try to give me a credible
answer this time.

All right, five minutes, then I can
talk. Fine.

MAN GROANS

MAN COUGHS

It might make your injuries worse.

Slow down, slow down.

SHE GROANS

I know, it's OK. It's all right.
There's an ambulance coming.

There's people on the...

SHE COUGHS

I believe this is their land.

But they're under Norwegian law,
so that makes them unhappy.

But then they're always unhappy,
because they're Russian.

Ah. Mayor Korotayev.

May I present Detective Kirsten
Longacre from Great Britain.

She's attached to this
investigation as an observer

in accordance with Norwegian law.

I remain in charge of policing,
so nothing substantial has changed.

We also have a
police detective here.

He has come from Saint Petersburg.

Hello.

Fyodor Zamarin.
Director Henrik Becken.

Great pleasure to meet you.

Both of you.

The equal treatment of nations
is your obligation.

If Britain has someone,
then we have the right.

Well, I'm here to help.

And I trust that
my help will be welcomed.

What rank are you?

Detective Inspector. You?

I'm Colonel.

I'm not sure how our systems match
up here, but I think I outrank you.

Not that it means anything,
of course.

May I ask you, how did you
arrive in Svalbard?

I ordered flights to be stopped.

A boat delivered them here.

Hodge's body was found there.

I gather you're saying Daniel Hodge
shot at some of your people.

One killed, one injured. I'm sorry.

When did you arrive at the scene?

6:44 AM.
OK.

And when did the shooting happen?

Sometimes around six.

And the body wasn't handled
before you got here?

He was left where he died?
She's wondering why

she doesn't see the blood
on the ground beneath the body.

It's because blood was trodden in by
your men as they went to help him?

That is correct. Yes, yes.

I'd like to see the body now.

SIG Sauer MCX,

issued to British Special Forces.

Very nice gun.

Hodge was a civilian.

I doubt that he had access
to military grade weapons.

Anyone can place a gun next to a
body. It doesn't mean anything.

This is the weapon he used to shoot
at our civilians.

Where are the spent casings?
They are not available to you.

Daniel Hodge was a civilian employed
by a mining prospecting company.

We need to establish the cause
of death

so I'm going to examine him now.
No.

Unacceptable.

If you won't release the body
for an autopsy...

None of this was agreed.

It is reasonable
for her to examine him.

Director Becken, would you let the
killer to handle the evidence

to incriminate him?
Of course you wouldn't.

So you have to
understand our position.

I don't believe I'm a suspect.

Yeah, but you're British,

and you're here to secure the
cover-up for your government.

Well, if me handling the body
is the issue,

then I'm happy for you to do it.

Zamarin, perhaps you can
confirm the man's identity for us.

A British police officer
telling us who he is...

...on the record. What do you think?

As you wish, Mayor.

Bit further.

Further? Mm-hm.

Director, could you film this
also, please?

A minor wound to the shoulder.

Two shots to the chest,
about 10cm apart.

Just as I told you.

Could you turn him?
Not necessary for identify.

I need to check for exit wounds.
I think we're done here.

I'd like to see it.

Turn him, please.

It's OK.

Two exit points. Same spacing.

Have you recovered the bullets?

No.

The men who exchanged fire
with him - what alerted them?

A woman, wife of a coal miner.

She told her husband what she saw.

And he raised an alarm
and went to see the problem.

Then he was shot.
Luckily he's alive.

Good. We would like to speak to him.

Arseny cannot speak.
His wife, then.

It is a difficult time, director.

Yes.

For all of us.

HE SPEAKS RUSSIAN

He just told her
that I speak Russian.

HE SPEAKS RUSSIAN

So could you please tell them
what happened? That's all.

I went to start work.

I saw a man inside the building.

I call on Arseny.

He makes a phone call
to Mayor Korotayev.

Tells me he has his gun
and will come.

He works as coal miner.

Ah.

And at what time was this?

I start work at six.

Sometimes a bit before.

15 before.

Is that an army tattoo? Yes.

Many men go to the army
when they're young.

Everyone wishes to serve
their country. Yes.

You said your husband took his gun.

What kind of gun does he have?

He uses hunting rifle.
We all have them for...

...for the bears.

Oh, that makes sense.

I'm very sorry this happened,
Polina.

We will try everything to work
together and to find what happened.

See what happens. I told you she was
not ready to talk.

I understand this is emotional,
but we have to ask the question.

There's nothing else to say here
anyway, so I think we can go.

This is a murder investigation.

It's what you asked for.
It's what the law requires.

You cannot ask us not
to talk to the witnesses.

SHE WHISPERS

Just leave her with her husband,
all right?

PHONE RINGS

This is DI Kirsten Longacre.
Please leave a message.

SHE SIGHS

We're not getting anything
useful out of Regent's Park.

The mission stays the same.
We find Gia.

When are we going back out?
Today.

We'll search the area east of
the exfiltration point.

She's not taking calls.

I need you to get someone to open
her door and find out where she is.

Buddy, I don't know
what you want me to do about it.

I'm responsible for her.
Sure, I understand,

but I'm an administrator
at a research centre, not a cop.

You need to call someone
who can help you.

Call director Becken.
Director Becken?

He doesn't answer.
So keep trying him.

Thank you, Mayor. Your cooperation
will be noted in my report.

Cooperation is good for us all. Yes.

I'd like to interview the woman
we just met, Polina.

Can I talk to her on her own?
They would never allow it.

Asking for
that will only make it worse.

In the spirit of cooperation,

I'd like to interview the man
who worked with Hodge.

Mining contractors, yes?
Neither of us has jurisdiction here.

And I doubt they'll want
to talk to the people

they think killed their friend.

OK. Well, I expect you help me,
just as you helped her.

Yes, I will ask them.
Going there now?

Yes. I'll come with you.

Will save you a set
of introductions.

How thoughtful of him.

Are you all right to be here?
Yeah, I've been checked out.

It's mainly bruising.

Mainly? I'm good to continue.

All right,
I'd like to begin with a question.

You chose to visit Professor Mair.

I didn't bring up Cynthia, if that's
what you're worried about.

I asked him why he flew home early.
Did you ask him anything else?

No. He was dead
before I got the chance to.

Any progress on the suspect?
He's known to our friends.

His name's Jason Collyer.

Heavily involved in
the sharper end of eco activism.

Previous arrests for trespass
and criminal damage.

Are we calling this a terror attack?
I think that's premature.

Collyer let his face
get caught on camera.

He's an amateur.

Any connections with Vincent Mair?

Well, none that we know of. But
Mair's an adviser to Gordon Laity,

the Minister for Energy
and Green Transition.

As you'd expect, they get
a lot of attention from activists.

CLAMOUR ON VIDEO

That's him with Gordon Laity.

Does he know the minister?

Certainly knows of him.

The minister isn't engaging
with anyone else.

He only talks to Collyer.
What's Gordon Laity like?

As ministers go,
he's one of the better ones.

Ambitious, gets things done.

A lot of his peers
bend with the wind,

but he understands what's at stake
with energy security.

Look, Laity wasn't involved
in the operation on Svalbard,

apart from approving the idea of
bringing Shen Jia to the UK. Outside

of the MoD, ministers aren't able
to commission covert operations.

I'm sure some of them might like to,
but they can't.

There are rules.
Really? Yes, really.

My life is endless red tape.
That's what the knighthood was for.

A reward for endurance.

He's not responsible for Hodge.

Do we need to brief the minister?

I'll do it.

In person.

Can I ask you something?

Are you to accompany DI Longacre
everywhere she goes?

No. I'm needed on another matter.

A woman has reported missing.

Who?

A Chinese woman.
One of the scientists.

A colleague says she's
not answering her door.

So he's been calling me constantly.

So, sorry, I have to deal with this.

Chen, it's Henrik Becken.
I'm on my way to you now.

PHONE BUZZES
Got to take this.

Hi. Sorry I missed your call.
You OK?

Yeah, more or less.

Well, I survived a bombing.
Jesus. What?

Are you hurt? I mean, are you OK?

Oh, no. I'm fine. Sorry. That was...

That was a stupid thing to say.

Who else was with you?
I went to see Vincent Mair.

There was an explosion
in his lab and...

...he didn't survive.

Oh, my God. Amy.

I'm fine. Honestly, I am.

What's going on up there?

Right.

Aye. Erm...

Well, one of Shen Jia's colleagues
has asked Director Becken

to help look for her.

I feel like that's something
I should follow up on.

Yeah, I agree.

Look, whatever Sir Ian said,
she's part of this case now.

And I looked her up.

Shen Jia and Vincent Mair
were clearly close colleagues.

Now she's missing and he's dead.
That's...

That's hardly a coincidence.

Just be discreet, OK?

I will be.

Look, I better go.
I'm on my way to see Gordon Laity.

You'll get a full report
from Mitchell

covering everything our end.

You're OK, though?

No bombs?

No, none of those.

Bye.

So, what do you make
of Mayor Korotayev?

I met him for the first time today.

I appreciated his help. Really?

I found it frustrating.
Hmm.

If you... If you're
going to tell lies,

at least do it with conviction.
And which lies do you have in mind?

Oh, so many to choose from.

It's hard.

Anyway, I tried to help my guy,
but he's very stupid.

No.

Huh? No.

Did you really notice nothing?

The mayor said the body
hadn't been touched.

Didn't look natural the way it fell?

I agree.

Are you saying Mayor Korotayev
staged it?

Hi, Amy Silva for Gordon Laity.

Of course.

So shoes come off at the door.
Always.

You have to excuse me while I go
talk to Chen about his colleague.

I can join you if that's helpful.
Sure.

I think it's nothing,
but I have to be willing.

I called you five times.
It's been a busy day.

Please, we need to open Shen
Jia's door. She's not answering.

It's her room. I can't
be opening people's rooms

just because their bosses said so.

That's OK. I have a warrant.

I mean, I don't,
but I write the warrant

so you can save me a trip home.

So is there a master key?

DCI Silva? Yes.

Thanks for making time for me.
Of course. I'm afraid I've only got

a few minutes before I
have to return to my guests.

Who are your guests?

Just some early arrivals
for the conference.

Some of them have
invested in this project,

so I'm hoping to recruit
a few others.

We can use the space upstairs.

I've known Vincent
for more than a decade.

He was a scientist at heart.

I dragged him into advise us and...

If this is on me...

I gather you were going to present
something together at COP?

Yeah.

Yeah, that'll still go ahead.
It has to.

It'll be bloody strange
without him, though.

Please tell me he wasn't targeted
for anything to do with COP.

We don't know that,
but we do have a lead.

Do you recognise this man?

Yeah, he's an activist.

One of those guys who's
against everything.

Won't be happy till
we're all living in mud huts,

knitting clothes from our own hair.

Did he ever make threats?

No. No.

I can't imagine why Vincent
would even be on his radar.

Um, you know, he was an adviser.

He wasn't even a policymaker.

Sure.

When's the last time you spoke
to Vincent Mair?

Um, I think, uh, a few days ago.

What did you discuss?

Our talk. You know, how best
to unveil our plans.

Could I just check
one thing with you?

Your number is 07700 900749,
is that correct?

We have a record of a call
between that number

and Vincent Mair's phone
just before the blast.

Do you remember that call? No.

I think you're mistaken.

This has turned into a rather
unorthodox briefing.

If you're here to interrogate me,

I think you should just be
up front about that.

Do you deny speaking to him today?

I have to get back to my guests.

If you're going
to make me repeat myself,

I think my time
is better spent elsewhere.

Obviously, I want to help.

Why don't you email me any other
questions you've got for me, OK?

Thank you.

Hello?

Yeah, she's not here, Chen.
She'll be out doing field work.

She isn't.

Director.
What?

No-one else can enter.
There's blood there.

I mean, it's been wiped,
but it's there.

I'm going to need you to leave.

What's going on? I'll come see you
later. I'm sorry. Thank you.

They can probably sample it here.

They've got all the equipment you
need for a fast result.

Yeah. Good idea.

A little blood could be anything, though.

A small cut on the hand or...

What is it?
I think this has been moved.

OK.

Jesus.

What is this?

Two shots, closely grouped.

They match the ones
that killed Hodge.

No-one reported hearing
any gunshots. I mean...

It must have been subsonic rounds
and a silencer, then.

Not a hunting rifle.

You were right.

The whole story about Hodge's
death is rubbish, isn't it?

I think Hodge was murdered
here in this room.

And then he was moved.

But Russia already admits
to shooting him in self-defence.

Right? When I when I got to the
scene, Mayor Korotayev told me...

It was a lie.

Chance to play a victim
by making it a story

of a British soldier breaking in.

To make it look even worse
for the British.

I will deny saying this
because I have to work around

what Korotayev has already said.

But honestly, I...

My own interest, my only interest
is in solving this case.

Really.

It was so stupid of Korotayev

because Russia is
the victim of something.

I think someone brought
the man's body to Baltegrad

and it's a trap being laid
for somebody.

I think it's a trap
being laid for us.

Someone trying to push Russia
into conflict with NATO?

They might succeed.

Jason?

You murdered Vincent Mair.
What?

Jesus.

Jason, please don't do this.

You'll only make things worse.

You're coming with me.

GUNSHOT
SCREAMS

Outside.

Now.

You should have done your job.

They killed the professor
and they tried to kill me.

You were there. You saw that. Help!

Help. Help!

Help me, someone!
