This is clearly

a sophisticated terrorist attack.

Stop!

It'll take more than a bomb to stop me.

Hello, darling.

Hoist by his own petard.

We've lost our two key leads

that could have led us to the group.

What about Alex?

The cause is more important than any of us.

We have to lose anyone

who represents a threat to our mission.

It's all protecting your own neck, isn't it?

You don't give a shit about Alex.

You don't give a shit about the victims.

You don't even give a shit about your team.

Do you know what, I'm done.

I've been given a bomb with instructions

to hand deliver the device to the London Stock Exchange.

She won't stop until she brings

the entire criminal justice system crashing down.

It's my time, it's my time.

Do you know who I am?

Of course I know who you are.

Come on then.

Lana Washington.

You're good at your job, aren't you?

At least Alex brought you to us in the end.

Where is he?

Waiting for you.

Lana.

What are you doing?

Our friend Alex was playing both sides.

It's not true.

Leading us to you, you to us.

Hoping we'd cancel each other out and he'd get away with it.

No.

Trying to ride his luck.

I swear to you, it's not true.

So we may as well see how lucky he really is.

Don't do this.

I'm not doing anything.

It's up to you, Lana.

One of these triggers is wired

to the detonator inside Alex's helmet.

The other one isn't.

You're a fucking psycho.

I'm not the one who walks towards bombs.

Choose.

No.

Choose and you live.

Maybe he does too.

Don't.

I'm not doing it.

Even though he betrayed you?

I swear to you, Lana, I never did.

I never.

He'd swear on his dead family

if it saved his own skin.

I know what you did.

I saw it.

What?

You pushed Tom Youngblood down a shaft to his death

while he was helping people.

Go on, then.

You could have saved him.

You just had to choose.

She wants a word.

How much do you know about May 1968?

Group of French students unhappy about single-sex dorms

in the Vietnam War?

They started a wave of protests

that nearly brought down an entire country.

What, so...

So you and him wanna share a dormitory?

They struck at the right time.

Capitalism was failing.

There was ridiculous inequality.

The workers weren't being paid enough.

Does any of this sound familiar?

Add to that a lying political class

and I think you've got everything you need

to start an uprising.

You can't be serious.

The people are angry.

They just want a push in the right direction.

Once we overthrow the government, it's a clean slate.

Right, well, good luck with that.

Lana.

Under the streets, there is the freedom of the beach.

And you're going to help us.

You are going to deliver the decisive blow.

Sir.

I've just been notified by protection command

that the home secretary's coming in

for a meeting this afternoon.

That's correct.

She's asked to attend my 2:00 p.m. briefing

with the heads of section.

Could that not have been done remotely, sir?

What's your concern?

You don't refuse the home secretary.

Well, I mean, the raised threat level, sir,

and the fact that our officers are already being targeted?

I think she'll be safe here, DI Batra.

We've been watching him for a while.

He's the kind of man

whose pride will eventually give you an opening.

I can't argue with that.

The home secretary's visit to CTHQ this afternoon

allows us the perfect opportunity.

In one move,

we can decapitate so-called law and order in this country.

People have a right to know they don't need to live

with the repression that they're used to.

Instead, they live in a fair, don't they?

I think you're too indoctrinated by the system

to comprehend.

I think you use too many big words.

There's no way you're gonna get into CTHQ.

And definitely not gonna get anywhere

near the home secretary.

No, but you will.

I believe you call this a command operated device

in your line of work.

I phone it, I enter a code, it blows up.

Now?

That amount of explosives,

innocent people will get killed.

But didn't you know?

All cops are bastards.

So what, you want me to walk into CTHQ

with that briefcase?

This is the cleaning company

who have the contract for central government buildings,

including CTHQ.

Yeah, but it was an Oxford with a front bencher.

It's how we, well, you get in unhindered,

through the service entrance.

The bomb will go in there until we're inside.

You'll be in the back with all the cleaning gear.

Once we're in, you'll be able to bypass the main security

and head upstairs.

There's no chance I'm doing this.

Where have you been?

Out.

You might like to see this.

The whole house is wired.

If they try to leave, we'll detonate the device.

I'm gonna fucking kill you!

Not before I kill your mum and dad.

Easy, Lana.

Easy.

Do what I say and your parents live.

Yeah?

You...

You gonna make the right choice this time?

Hello.

Dad, it's me.

Lana.

What is it, love?

Listen, Dad.

It's okay, it's okay.

Whatever it is, it's gonna be all right.

Dad, listen, you can't leave the house.

What?

They're watching you.

There's a bomb in your house.

What?

In our house?

Yeah.

It's gonna be fine.

I'm gonna get you out.

So what do we do?

Tell us what to do.

Just...

Just don't leave the house.

Don't call anyone for help.

Just gotta do something for these people.

What?

But they're watching you.

There's cameras.

If you try and leave- - Lana.

Lana.

What's going on?

How did this happen?

They came yesterday while you were out.

Who?

They said they were from the Met.

It was, it was a precaution or something.

No, no, no.

Jesus, Val!

How can you be so gullible?

Well, they had ID!

So what?

Lana always says to check with her before we-

Well, maybe you'd have bloody remembered,

had you been here.

Hell, yeah, yeah, yeah.

And I was under the bloody impression

you couldn't stand the sight of me.

So what, you were just gonna stay out the way

till it all blew over?

Yeah, well, pretty much, yeah!

I mean, no, I suppose not.

Look, can you at least remember

roughly whereabouts in our house they installed a bomb?

All right, let's go.

Side door.

The back entrance is just over here.

Get ready, Lana.

Stop.

Whoa, watch it!

They've increased security.

There are dogs.

Can you hear me?

What do you expect?

Wait, dogs, are you sure?

Yes.

That, that's risky, that is.

They'll smell the RDX.

Turn around.

What, what, what's going on?

Why are we turning round?

I told you I'd figure it out.

Gimme a fucking chance.

Don't worry, your mum and dad aren't dead yet.

And your claim just now that you could figure something out,

was that just desperation too?

No, I can do it.

How?

I can build a bomb inside.

Out of what?

Collected evidence.

Explosives?

From data analysis.

They keep hold of tiny samples.

Not enough on their own, but put together, yeah.

And they could do the same job?

Enough to take out the home secretary

and anyone within three feet.

I will kill your parents if you're messing with me, Lana.

Alex did manage to leave us with something useful.

Access to all the main building security cameras

inside CTHQ.

We'll be able to see you wherever you go.

And put this in your ear.

It's so I can talk to you.

And you'll need to wear this around your neck.

It's the induction loop for the earpiece.

You'll be able to hear me anywhere inside 800 feet.

But you can't hear me?

No, one way.

So if I tell you what to do, you do it.

And wire this phone to the device

so I remain in control of the bomb.

You kidding me?

You'll find a way to get it inside.

What if someone else calls it?

It's code protected, same as the other one.

What are you gonna do with the device in the van?

When emergency services turn up,

we can park the van in the middle of them.

Make a nice secondary.

Fucking hell.

Home is just a phone call away.

Take it, Lana.

We wanna see you inside the building in one minute.

58 seconds.

You do like to take it to the wire.

Hi, Lana Washington, expo.

I forgot my lanyard,

but I'm here to see Dr. Reeves in bomb data analysis?

Is she expecting you?

No.

Got some evidence that needs a look at.

Dr. Reeves, there's a Lana Washington here for you.

Can you go through again,

please?

Okay, arms up.

It's probably all the shrapnel in my body.

Plenty of it.

Okay, turn around for me.

Wait for Dr. Reeves, please.

Yeah, sure.

I can take it from here, thanks.

Told you you'd find a way in.

You all right, mate?

Yeah, good.

I've got these.

I need to log them.

Okay.

Do you wanna bring 'em up then?

Cheers.

Wash, what's going on?

Do you trust me?

Yeah, of course.

I've got a favour I need to ask you.

Bring up the lift camera.

We haven't got it.

Why not?

They're installed by the manufacturer.

It's not a live feed.

I need your pass and the OME code.

That's quite a favour.

Yeah, well, I wouldn't ask if I didn't need to.

Okay, we've got you on the third floor.

Look to the camera on your right if you can hear me.

Hello, Lana.

Your mum and dad are counting on you.

- Lana? - Danny.

- What are you doing here? - Carry on as normal, okay?

We're being watched.

What?

This gang that we're after,

they're watching us through the cameras.

Just keep doing what you're doing.

What are you up to, Lana?

I hope you're sticking to the plan.

I need your help, Danny.

Don't react, but this gang,

they've, they've wired my mum and dad's house

and if I don't do what they say, they might die.

What do they want you to do?

Lana.

Pass me your snips.

What?

What the hell's going on here?

Just pass me your snips, Danny.

Don't make a thing of it.

Please.

Thanks.

Get Alice, go to my mum and dad's,

and don't do anything until Sonya calls.

Alright, you've got the tools, now let's build the bomb.

So, the room, this whole thing's packed with explosives.

No, what are you doing?

I'm just going for a tiny little look.

Don't be daft, you don't know about explosives.

I know about wiring.

No.

- It's all right. - No.

It's all right.

No!

Things aren't good between your mum and dad,

are they, Lana?

No, sorry, you're absolutely right.

It's none of my business.

I'm not like you.

I'm not ready just to give up.

Looks like our guest has arrived.

Thank you so much for coming.

We really appreciate it.

Right this way.

Well done, Lana.

Should have recruited you long ago.

Washington.

What the hell are you doing here?

Sir, apologies.

Sonya in bomb data analysis isn't able

to attend the meeting, so she's asked me to step in.

What?

You can't be serious.

I'm the person most qualified

to talk about the devices used in this campaign so far.

Well, no, I'm sorry.

This is, this is unacceptable.

Sir, I know we didn't leave on the best terms yesterday.

You called me a brown-nosing twat.

I know, sir, and I'm sorry, genuinely,

but the home secretary might want expert input

on the devices.

Alright, we'll park this for now.

Stay and fill in for Dr. Reeves.

It's appreciated.

Thank you so much for coming.

Thank you, a pleasure.

We'll start imminently, so please do take a seat.

Right.

Thank you very much, everyone.

Please sit down.

Yeah.

- Thank you. - No problem.

Hi, thank you.

Good afternoon, Home Secretary,

and thank you for giving us a moment of your time.

This situation is dynamic and moving at pace.

Therefore, we will be brief.

Thank you.

And thanks to all those present

for the work you've been doing

in the most trying circumstances.

Please continue, John.

Thank you, ma'am.

What's the plan, Lana?

Does he take it to her or she going to him?

We will speak by exception only.

The purpose of this brief is to lay out the progress

of this investigation.

Looking at the group behind the attacks

and the evidence we have as to their identity,

including the physical evidence,

which we believe will lead us to a swift resolution

without further loss of life.

We are dealing with a group not previously known

to the police or the security services.

Their bombing campaign has targeted

both in and around the city of London,

using a level of sophistication not seen before

on the UK mainland.

What kind of sophistication?

Well, I have here a few examples

of the improvised explosive devices they have employed.

We have been in communication with Interpol

and Five Eyes, who likewise have not seen this type

of ingenuity associated with domestic terrorism

and certainly not on this scale.

I'd like to ask our explosives officer,

Lana Washington, to join me.

Lana is the lead technical expert in this case,

in the absence of Dr. Sonya Reeves from bomb data analysis.

She has particular expertise

in defusing bombs and can offer specialist insight

into the likely identity of the group responsible

for the disa...

Experience tells us that improvised explosive devices

have an identity that is very particular to their maker.

I'm sorry.

I've had worse off your mother.

I'm just, just can't stop grieving.

Neither can I.

It's funny, how long we've been married,

we've got such different ways of dealing with stuff.

Well, I bottle things up, I think.

I push things down.

Keep myself busy.

Kind of person I am.

I'm not.

You can say that again.

Jeff.

I don't blame you for Billy.

It's not your fault.

No.

But it's not your fault either.

Hey, hey.

Val.

Listen, it's gonna be all right.

It's gonna be okay.

What's the plan, Lana?

The first device Lana is going to show you-

With all due respect, John,

I'm not interested in the type of bombs being used.

I want to know how you're going

to catch the terrorists behind this.

I understand that, Home Secretary,

but the nature of the devices used-

Is sophisticated, I get that.

But what measures are actually being taken

to hunt down the perpetrators? - Lana.

Of course.

If we examine the granular intelligence.

Forgive me, ma'am.

Sorry, but I, I agree with Commander Francis.

An understanding of the device is the only way

to establish who's behind it.

This is a command initiated device.

A bomb like this would allow the bomber greater control

to hit their planned target.

What's unusual about this is

it's not triggered just by calling the phone.

You have to enter a four digit code to set it off.

This is bomb making of the highest order,

so an understanding of how it's made is-

Yes, exactly, thank you very much, Lana.

Do it, now.

No, it's not close enough.

You're all clear.

Take positions.

DS Morgan.

Do we have everyone out?

Just those attending the briefing

and those in close proximity left.

Okay, have we been cleared to proceed?

We are authorised to use lethal force if required.

And of course, this device is only one of a variety

of initiation methods used.

You can clearly see the complexities

that we as a team have faced

in the course of our investigation.

Armed police are in the building.

Closing in.

You're gonna have to make a move, Lana.

It's you or your mum and dad.

And variety indicates either a bomb making team

or a very talented individual bomb maker.

As individuals tend to stick

to the type of device they have the most success with.

So whoever it is is a clean skin, someone new.

So while we have hundreds of personnel working this case,

it's true we have very few actionable leads.

Now, Lana.

But indication suggests that another attack is...

Now.

Ma'am!

This call is being redirected.

What?

Shit!

Armed police, stop!

Stay there!

Stay still.

Keep your hands where we can see them.

Move forward.

Stop.

Batra, will you call Sonya, please?

- Sure, yeah. - Move forward.

Stop.

IED, IED.

Stand back!

Everyone follow to your nearest exit.

All right, CTHQ.

That's it, house go.

Okay, now, very, very gently catch this, sir.

You got it? - Got it.

You guys all right?

Come on, Val, come on.

There we go, there we go, lovely.

Nice and gently, gently, gently, gently.

You got her? - Yeah.

Nice and gently, please.

Well done, Val, well done, well done.

Easy, easy, it's okay, I've got you.

You good?

Here we go, we got it.

Easy as pie, here we go.

- All right, guys, let's go. - Bye.

You wanna get that door for me, mate, please?

Tell Wash her parents are safe.

You diverted the call from the phone they gave you

and it gave you command of the device?

Yeah.

That's clever.

But why then did the bomb you built get all the way

to the home secretary?

Because I needed them to think it was them setting it off.

The real device required a four digit code

that only they had access to.

Why didn't you alert our officers

as soon as you entered the building?

Because they would've killed my mum and dad.

But you could have killed the home secretary.

I was trying to take control of the situation.

Control?

Lana- - And-

You took a hell of a risk.

In doing that, she saved other people's lives.

I think we'd do well to remember that, sir.

What about the others?

I gave you their location.

What?

Armed police, get down!

Don't move, don't move!

There you are.

Been looking for you.

You been hiding in the loo?

You all right?

No, I'm not.

Look, do you want to go?

I'm happy to cover for you.

No, I can't go, it's Danny's wedding.

I'm just gonna get shit-faced.

Well, that sounds like a good idea.

Thank you.

Cheers.

Who are you looking at?

I think he's one of Danny's uncles.

He's checking you out.

Yeah, look at them eyes.

Go and say hello then.

No, I'm not gonna leave you.

Sod off and go and say hello.

He's hot.

I'm gonna drag you there if you don't go.

All right, all right.

Go on, go on.

That'll be the last you see of her today.

Yep.

Here he is, man of the moment.

Come here.

It was nothing, it was nothing.

He's a very modest man, isn't he?

You and Danny only saved our lives.

And listen, Lana, she did all the work.

Yeah, I'm gonna take the credit 'cause I'm his boss.

This is unsettling.

I'm gonna go, bye.

You scrubbed up well, Dad.

Yeah, looking great, love, yeah?

Yeah, you all right?

Yeah, tip top, tip top.

No, how's Mum doing?

Look at her.

She's fine.

Nice to see her out.

Yeah.

Mind you, if she gets on the dance floor,

you'll have to help me restrain her before there's carnage.

- Hi, you all right? - All right, love?

Her outfit looks even cooler than mine.

Billy would've liked this.

No, he wouldn't, he hated parties.

He had two left feet, couldn't dance.

Yeah, true enough.

You okay?

Yeah.

All right.

No, Danny, listen, I'm, I'm happy for you,

but this is where I draw the line.

- Not taking no for an answer. - Right, Sonya.

Let's go, let's go.

I'm after you, come on.

- Thank you. - Fair.
