Okay. [SIGHS] Delete a flight plan.

- Turn autopilot off.
- [BEEPS]

Altitude to , .

[BREATHES SHAKILY]

Okay. [INHALES DEEPLY]

- [BREATHING HEAVILY]
- [PASSENGER] Stay down!

- Who was that? Who was that?
- [PASSENGERS CLAMORING, CRYING]

Come on, tell me! Tell me! Who?

I don't know.

- [PANTING] You're sure she's not with you?
- [KATE] Somebody needs to help him!

- No?
- [KATE] Help him!

[STUART] What?

What?

- They're coming to k*ll you.
- [CLAMORING CONTINUES]

[NASIR SHOUTS]

[STRAINING, GRUNTING]

- [DEEVIA BREATHING HEAVILY] She sh*t him.
- [COLETTE] Who?

- Some random woman, she sh*t him dead.
- [COLETTE] She sh*t who dead?

Who did she sh**t?

We're gonna need you.

What? [BREATHES HEAVILY]

[SAM] You can't k*ll them all.

Give me the g*n.

[SCOFFS, BREATHING HEAVILY]

That g*n is the only g*n that's loaded.

All right? That's what
I think. Y-Yes? Right?

What should I do?

[PASSENGER] Cable tie
his f*cking feet together!

- [DAVID BREATHING HEAVILY]
- [KATE] Put it down!

- Put it on the ground!
- [PASSENGER ] Help me!

[KATE] Just put the g*n down!

Give it to me before they take
it off you and k*ll you with it.

- [JONTY] Give me the g*n!
- [PASSENGER ] I can't...

Give me the f*cking g*n! [PANTING]

- Move! Move! Get down!
- [PASSENGER ] No! No! No!

- Where are you going?
- [JONTY] You're blocking me.

- Move out the f*cking way!
- Come on.

I'm tired of you f*cking with me!

- Come on!
- Let's go!

[EDDIE] We've got to get
through the door hatch.

- [JONTY] Stop f*cking with me!
- [GRUNTS]

- [PASSENGERS SHOUTING]
- [GRUNTS] Move!

Back. Back, back, back!

You have got no idea
who you're dealing with.

I'm not joking, mate! Time
to let someone else have a go!

- [PASSENGERS SCREAM]
- [INHALES SHARPLY]

It's all right. It's all right.

Oh, I don't know who I'm
dealing with? You don't!

No, mate. This g*n is the
only g*n that's loaded.

This g*n.

Okay?

So now you listen to
me. This hijack is over.

It's over!

We have a different
problem. A bigger problem.

But we've got less
than an hour to fix it.

[BREATHES HEAVILY] Got it?

[OVERLAPPING RADIO CHATTER]

["LONELY SOUL" PLAYING]

[SIMON] Yeah, I get that, Tina, but
it's not the only plane in the sky.

Yeah. Yeah. And when we have that
information, we'll let you know.

Okay. We're confirmed on the bubble.

That's a -mile exclusion
zone around Kingdom - ,

the moment it enters our air space.

[CARMELLA] That's seven minutes.

Let's have all the London airports
keeping a runway free, please.

Stansted is our preference
if they give us any choice.

- Stansted already standing by.
- [CARMELLA] And Bristol?

It won't have the fuel for Bristol.
Not after its Hungarian detour.

- [SIGHS]
- [ALICE] Kingdom - , how do you read?

Are you still trying every
mobile on the manifest?

Trying everything we can.

Then if we make contact, we're
handing it over to the RAF.

- Simon, this is my flight.
- It's a m*llitary situation.

- It's a commercial aircraft.
- They've already scrambled jets.

I'm not talking to the jets,
am I? I'm talking to the plane.

Alice, I'm not gonna
argue with you about this.

Aw, thank you. I'm glad about that.

Kingdom - , how do you read?

[SIGHS]

[ALICE] Kingdom - , how do you read?

[GARY] Tell her.

- g*n down. Do what I say.
- Get off him. Get back!

It's over, Jay. They know
it's not loaded. It's over.

Just give it here. All
right, listen to me carefully.

Find the woman that's the
head of the cabin crew.

Tell her to find that doctor in Economy.

Go and help her colleague
that's been sh*t. Got it?

All right, you.

- Call her and tell her it's over.
- What?

Tell her that the passengers
have control of this plane

and if she doesn't come
out there in seconds...

[STUART] It won't work.

I told you. She's not one of us.

No. She has to be, okay? This
can't happen twice in one flight.

He doesn't mean it like that.

He means whoever she is, we
don't know. We've not been told.

"Not been told." [SCOFFS, SIGHS]

Come here. Tie 'em up.

Whatever happens, we restrain
the rest of them. Agreed? Yeah?

All right. Come on. [SIGHS]

[KNOCKS] Come on!

- [SAM BANGING] Can you open up?
- [PHONE RINGING]

[ALICE] Kingdom - , how do you read?

- [SAM SPEAKS INDISTINCT]
- [BREATHES DEEPLY]

[ALICE] Kingdom - , this
is London. How do you read?

[SUPERVISOR] Well, there was always,

always gonna be more to
this. There had to be.

[INHALES SHARPLY] If
you want to break two men

out of prison, whoever they may be,

you don't need to hijack an airliner.

You just kidnap the
governor. Or a guard.

Now, this... this here
is known as a "bear raid."

- A what?
- A bear raid. "Bear" as in the animal.

Yeah, there was a major short trade made

the moment the markets
opened this morning.

So, they hijack the plane

- then leak it to the media.
- Mmm.

Not a major outlet that
we've put under blackout

but some trigger-happy financial
journo who goes straight onto Twitter,

and before you know it,

shares in Kingdom Airlines are
falling faster than the plane itself.

But if a share price is
dropping don't you lose money?

Not if you bet the other way.

Exactly.

Hijackings don't exactly do much
for an airline's share price.

What's the best outcome for the OCG?

Oh, financially?

[INHALES SHARPLY] Well,
the best outcome for them

is the worst outcome for the plane.

A crash?

The worse it is, the
more they make. [SIGHS]

- [DANIEL] Marsha, hey.
- [RADIO CHATTER]

[SIGHS] Listen, these guys,
they're serious operators.

I need you to be careful.

I need you to look after
yourself and look after Kai.

Is he with you?

[MARSHA] He's gone to his dad's
place. At least, I think he has.

[DANIEL] Think. Is there
a-anything suspicious?

Anyone call at the house?
Any strange calls or anything?

[SIGHS] There was one.

From who? Marsha, from who?

- What did they want?
- [BREATHES SHAKILY]

Marsha, what did they want?

They wanted me to confirm Sam's address.

[POLICE RADIO CHATTER]

[PANTS]

What's happening?

[TIRES SKIDDING, SCREECHING]

[JADEN STRAINING]

- [GRUNTING]
- [STRAINS] Keep him down.

Tie him up. Tie him up. Quick.

- [DEEVIA] No, it's locked.
- It can't just be locked.

- [DEEVIA] That's the system.
- So, what if the pilot gets locked out?

Then there's the first officer.

- Well, this is her bag.
- [SAM SIGHS]

And there's no ID, but
she's clearly a mum,

'cause there's, uh, pizzas,
yogurts, family shop.

She is a mum.

She is. And she... she told me she
wants to get back to her family.

- What's her name? Uh, it was...
- Well, what seat was she in?

Opposite me. Um...
[CLICKS TONGUE] Uh, A.

- Amanda. Amanda.
- [DEEVIA] Quite sure?

[SAM] This is good. That's our way in.

[RINGING]

- [RINGING CONTINUES]
- [SIGHS]

Amanda, it's Sam. Look, you-you
don't need to speak, okay?

You don't have to talk. You
don't have to tell us anything.

[SIGHS] All I ask is that you, um...

Just want you to hear us
out, okay? That's all we ask.

Can you keep this line open?

Amanda?

Amanda?

Amanda?

[KNOCKING]

[SAM] Amanda. Amanda.

Come on. Amanda.

- [PASSENGERS CRYING]
- [SAM] It's me, Sam.

[KNOCKING CONTINUES]

Amanda?

- [PASSENGER] Look. On the map.
- [SAM] Come on, please.

[SAM] Just talk to the police.

It's been doing that for
the last five minutes.

[SAM] Amanda?

This is now a code one situation.
Kingdom - has changed its heading.

Repeat, Kingdom -
has changed its heading.

[ZAHRA] What do you
mean changed its heading?

- Changed it to what?
- [ALICE] Kingdom - was due to arc south

- to Heathrow...
- Hello?

... but is now heading
directly for Central London.

And, uh, Alice, is that
definitely intentional?

It cannot be anything other
than completely intentional.

- Kingdom - , how do you read?
- I have RAF command.

- They've okayed a Quick Reaction Alert.
- [ALICE] Kingdom - , how do you read?

[LYDIA] That's two Typhoons airborne.

- Thank you.
- Kingdom - , my name is Alice.

- You'll then have five minutes...
- Please identify.

... to give an order or not.

[REPORTER] ... Government
unlikely at this stage

to confirm anything publicly,

but one would imagine
usual protocols will apply.

Houses of Parliament,
The Shard, The London Eye.

- [DOORBELL RINGS]
- We're talking about a massive

and urgent evacuation
of key sites in its path.

[NEWSCASTER] Could you give us
a picture of what would be...

[DOORBELL RINGING]

[POLICE RADIO CHATTER]
That's affirmative, over.

- Hi.
- [OFFICER] Hello.

- This your property, sir?
- [CHUCKLES] I wish. I'm just working here.

Working, as in?

[CLEANER ] Cleaner. The, uh...
The owner, he does short-term lets.

Uh, the last lot had
some sort of house party.

Only we had a call from a
landline registered to this apartment.

This apartment or this building?

[OFFICER] This apartment.
Twenty minutes ago.

[CLEANER ] I don't think so, mate.

[OFFICER] I wouldn't make it up.

[CLEANER ] I'm not saying
you would, but as you can see,

nothing doing here.

[KAI BREATHING SHAKILY]

Do you wanna come in?

[RADIO CHATTER]

No. No, we'll check
some of the other flats.

Probably some kind of mistake.

Okay.

- [BREATHES SHAKILY]
- [DOOR CLOSES]

[CLEANER ] Check this out!

[CHUCKLES] His son.
Hiding the whole time.

[CLEANER ] You'll
never guess what, mate.

Daddy's on the telly.

Look. Look.

- I'm looking.
- No, there. Look.

[PASSENGERS CLAMORING]

[KACEY] Oh, my God.

[BREATHING HEAVILY]

[NEIL] There are
people on that plane.

If it strikes Central London,
it would k*ll twice that again.

You can't say that.

[SIGHS] The choice is simple.

- There is no choice.
- Either we let it go, or we stop it.

We sh**t it down while it's over
water. But not over the capital.

- The Prime Minister decides.
- No, she acts on advice.

She will make the statement,
but let's be clear,

the decision is ours.

Our phones. Where are they?

- [BREATHES HEAVILY]
- Everyone needs their phones back.

[SAM SIGHS] She's right.

- [DEEVIA] Needs to phone home.
- [SAM] She's right.

No, she's not.

- Where are they?
- [STUART] She's wrong.

- You f... Where are they?
- Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey!

- [SAM] It's okay. Stop that.
- Tell her!

[BREATHES HEAVILY] Tell her
what? Why? Why no phones?

'Cause they'll all tell
the ground what's happening.

[PHONE RINGING]

[STUART] They'll know that we
don't know who's flying the plane.

When they hear that,
they'll sh**t us down.

- [PHONES BUZZING, RINGING]
- Right?

Due to the deviation over Hungary,

Kingdom - 's fuel levels
are dangerously low.

[ALICE] Uh, an endurance...

This is Flight Path Control.
Is that Kacey Turner?

Kingdom - , once again, how do you...

This is Alice Sinclair. Who
am I speaking to, please?

It's, um, Sam. Sam Nelson.

[ALICE] Sam. I'm an air traffic
controller assigned to your flight.

I'm aware of your situation,
and I want to help you.

[SAM] Okay.

I need to speak to the captain.

The captain is unavailable.

- [ALICE] Unavailable?
- [MOUTHING] No.

Mmm. There was...
[STAMMERS] ... an incident.

He-He got injured.

[CLICKS TONGUE] Then I need to
speak to whoever is flying the plane.

The o-other pilot...

- First officer.
- [SAM] The... The first officer...

[ALICE] Is she flying the plane?

[SAM] Yes.

Okay, Sam. Listen to me.

If me and you are gonna
get along, I need the truth.

All right.

One more time. Is the first
officer flying the plane?

[EXHALES DEEPLY]

Sam?

No.

No?

[SAM] No, because you
have eyes on the plane.

You're gonna see it for yourselves.

Alice. Come on, give me the phone.

The woman at the controls
is not the first officer.

Good. So, who is she?

[SIGHS] Um, her name is Amanda.

She's a passenger, a mum. [STAMMERS]
That's all we know about her.

[ALICE] But why is she flying the plane?

[INHALES DEEPLY] Sam, listen to me.

No one wants those jets to do
anything but leave you well alone.

But in order for that to happen,
you're gonna need to talk to me.

Yours are not the only
lives in danger here, Sam.

Yeah. Um, well, she...
[SIGHS] she k*lled the pilot.

Locked herself in the
cockpit and we can't get in.

We cannot stop this plane.

[SNIFFLES]

[PILOT] Kingdom - ,
this is Trojan formation.

I have been authorized by
His Majesty's government

to take lethal action
if you do not respond.

Kingdom - , please acknowledge.

- We sh**t it down.
- We can't.

- The best outcome for them...
- [BREATHES SHAKILY]

... is the worst outcome for the plane.

We cannot stand by and watch
it crash into the capital.

I cannot be part of that decision.

- No? Well then, let it be mine.
- [BREATHING SHAKILY]

I'm Home Secretary. It's over
London. It can come from me.

- [PERSON] We need you back in.
- [NEIL] I've had my turn.

I've also just let two
of the most wanted men

in the country drive out of prison.

So I am damaged goods as it is.

I mean it. If I'm wrong...

I'll take the hit.

[PASSENGERS WHISPERING, CRYING]

[PILOT] Control, this is Trojan.

Moving into position.
Awaiting your command.

Plane is still h*jacked. It's
still heading for Central London.

Passengers have no way
of stopping the plane.

RAF Command need your call.

You have the PM holding.

[LYDIA] Right now.

[BREATHES HEAVILY]

Prime Minister.

No.

We stay clear.

We evacuate key sites.

But we do not, cannot act
against our own people.

If that...

If this is wrong, or
weak, then this is on me.

But that is the advice
you are being given.

[PASSENGERS MURMURING, CRYING]

Thank you. Understood.

That is a negative. Repeat, that
is a negative. Do not engage.

[SIMON] You heard her.
Get your jets to back off.

Trojan, this is strike command.
Pull back and maintain visual.

Copy that. Maintaining visual.

[ALICE] Sam, are you
there? Can you hear me?

Sam? The jets will not engage.

Sam, can you hear me? Are you there?

- The jets will not engage.
- [SAM] Um...

[ALICE] Sam, can you hear me, please?

- The jets will not fire.
- Um, yes. I can hear you.

- Good. Sam, are you near the cockpit?
- Uh, why?

Because we've still
gotta land this plane.

- [DOG BARKING]
- [CHICKEN CLUCKING]

[SIGHS]

Come. Come on. Let's go. Come on.

We're meeting the helicopter in an hour.

With every penny the shares
drop, we make another million.

Jesus. How much do you need?

Look, it's dropping
three points a minute.

How much do you wanna turn down?

- No, she needs an answer.
- And we need to make some money.

We're not here just to pay people off.

Don't go soft on me now.

[REPORTER] For those
of you just joining us,

we are continuing in our
coverage of the KA story.

Now with detrimental
effects upon the markets...

- [PHONE BUZZING]
- ... with drops in share prices

across the travel industry.

Kingdom Airlines themselves, of course,

- and other associated stocks.
- [EXHALES]

It's unclear at the moment how long
these stocks will continue to fall,

- but it's concerning...
- [TELEVISION MUTES]

[BUZZING CONTINUES]

Detective Daniel?

[LINE RINGING]

Kai?

Are you okay, Kai?

Listen, if you can hear me,
there's some serious stuff going on.

But I'm... I-I'm on my way over there.

You're at your dad's, yeah?
I'm coming over now. Okay?

No.

[DANIEL] Kai, your mother
wants me to come over there now.

No. No. Please. I'm okay.

Um... I'm coming home anyway.

I'm gonna get on my bike.
The one I was on this morning.

You...

[KAI] The bike that
I was on this morning.

And I'm gonna ride as fast as
I can, and I'm coming back home.

[DANIEL] Okay, mate. You ride sensibly.

Make sure no one pulls you over. Okay?

- [SIREN WAILING]
- f*ck me.

[INTERCOM CHIMES]

- [COLETTE] Take one. Turn it on.
- [PASSENGERS CHATTERING]

If you can work out who it belongs to,

then try and get it back to that person.

Pass it on. Pass it on.

[PEOPLE SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY]

[KACEY] I can't see mine.
Mine's got a blue case.

- Okay. All right.
- Try that one.

So, if we can't be sh*t down,

then we're handing the
passengers back their phones.

[ALICE] Sam, the
priority is the cockpit.

Kingdom - now too
far north for Heathrow.

No obvious airport in sight.

- Sam, the cockpit.
- [SAM] Look, I can understand...

- Whoa, whoa.
- [BREATHING HEAVILY]

- [ALICE] Sam?
- [PASSENGER] She'll never talk to you.

- [ALICE] Sam, you there? Can you...
- She'll never say anything.

- She's been told. They'll have her family.
- [SAM] Hang on, Alice.

They'll be holding them hostage,
so she does exactly what they say.

How do you know that?

Because they've got my family too.

They wanted the g*ns brought on board,

and I had to do it or they'd...
they'd sh**t my partner.

They've got my partner right now.

Why you?

- Sorry?
- Are you... Are you with them?

- No. No... No!
- Co... Come in here.

- No!
- Just... Just stand there.

- [STAMMERS] Are you with her? No?
- No.

So then why you?

Because he's clean. If he gets caught,
we just move on to the next guy.

Why you? Who picked you?

Who the f*ck are you?

[BREATHES HEAVILY] I'm a trader.

I'm the one that did the deal.

What deal?

What's he talking about?

What deal?

[JOHN] She needs an answer, and
we need to leave. So we close it.

Not yet.

No. Now. They'll be here soon. This
place is gonna be f*cking crawling.

- Wait.
- Just give me the phone, will you...

You f*cking f*ck off!

We lie low, until the plane
crashes. End of conversation.

[WHISTLES]

Change of plan. We do this early.

- [DOG BARKING]
- [CHICKENS CLUCKING]

- [ENGINE STARTS]
- [LINE RINGING]

- Devlin.
- [JOHN] Make the trade.

They make their money, and it's
over. It's just about money.

- And then they k*ll us?
- No.

What, they crash the plane
just to get rich? What?

That's the thing. It
should be over by now.

As soon as we're over London,
it's meant to be finished.

That's what I don't understand.

[WHIMPERS] Call me back, Mum. Please.

[CRYING] Go on.

I don't have anyone, okay?

[PASSENGER] What?

I don't have anybody to call.

Call Mum. Oh, Mum. Oh, Mum. [WHIMPERING]

Hey. I'll sit here, eh?

Hands up if you've got some
coloring-in stuff in here, eh.

- Yeah, you both have, haven't you, hon?
- [DAVID] Yeah?

That'll keep us occupied, won't it?

[IN ARABIC] Alia?

Daddy and I love you so much.

[SNIFFLES]

We are proud of you.

We are proud of what
you do with your life.

[SNIFFS]

- [SIGHS]
- [CURTAIN OPENS]

[HUGO, IN ENGLISH] Guys,
you've got to see this.

"Happy birthday Elodie."
Her daughter. Of course.

- [ALICE] Sam, the cockpit. Sam?
- I... I'll call you back.

- No, no. Sam, please don't...
- [CELL PHONE DISCONNECTS]

Give me that.

Amanda, we know about
Elodie. We've got your phone.

He said he'd call me back.

[PANTING] Anyone come into Flat ?

- Flat ?
- Sam Nelson's flat.

You seen anyone walk in there? Anyone?

- A kid.
- A youth. Eighteen. Sam's boy?

Oh, and some cleaners. Two of them.

[CELL PHONE RINGING]

- Hey.
- [ZAHRA] Sam Nelson.

He's your partner's ex. That's
how this whole thing started.

He's the only person in
touch with the ground.

He just hung up on Air Traffic Control.

He's not involved.

[ZAHRA] The trust
needs to work both ways.

He's not involved.

Based on?

Based on the fact that the OCG
have got Sam's boy up there.

Zahra, I need backup at Sam's flat, now.

- What's your name?
- Kenny.

Kenny, come with me. [BREATHES HEAVILY]

[LINE RINGING]

Marsha? I'm here. Stay away,
okay? I'll call you back.

[BREATHING HEAVILY]

Amanda? Amanda? Amanda! Hey.

[DEEVIA SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY]

Move out of my way!

[DEEVIA] Stop. Please,
go back to your seats.

It doesn't make sense,
everybody being in here.

I tried to stop them. [BREATHES HEAVILY]

- We're kicking it down.
- Yeah, too right.

We smash it down. All of us. Even
him. We've got no f*cking choice now.

- He's right.
- [GARY] Eddie, come on. Get them out.

Right, where we going?

- [NASIR] Just get these here.
- I'm gonna have to move your hands.

- [DEEVIA] He doesn't need to be untied.
- [GARY] Open up!

- Move out the way!
- [DEEVIA] It's not gonna work!

[INHALES SHARPLY]

- [JONTY] Move out the f*cking way!
- f*ck. [SIGHING]

Passenger flying plane is
confirmed as an Amanda Taunton.

Aviation Consultant.
Used to be in the Navy.

[SIMON] Altitude's still dropping.

Kingdom - is set to
reach unmaintainable height

over West London. Paddington, Kilburn.

Crashing?

If "unmaintainable height" means
crashing, just say crashing.

- Crashing.
- [NEIL] Uh, but when though?

[ALICE STAMMERS] Four minutes.

But if it's intentional,
it could be any second.

[KNOCKING]

[PASSENGERS CLAMORING]

[SNIFFLING, SIGHS]

[HUGO] Help! We need help in here.

- Keep them out the way. That's it.
- [DEEVIA] It doesn't make sense.

- It's not gonna work.
- [NASIR] Move out...

[PASSENGERS CLAMORING]

- Move!
- Stop it.

- [DEEVIA] No. It's steel. [GRUNTS]
- Calm down, please. Just wait. Just...

[CELL PHONE RINGING]

[HUGO] Wait, wait, wait, wait.

[RINGING CONTINUES]

Do you think it's her?

Hello?

[AMANDA CRYING] Sam, I k*lled a man.

- Oh, listen, it wasn't your fault...
- But I sh*t him. [SNIFFLES]

And he was a dad. He
was a man with a family.

Amanda, they've got
your family. All right?

They've got your family.

Isn't that right? Yeah?

You do exactly what they
say, or they k*ll Elodie.

- [SNIFFLES]
- I'm right, aren't I? Amanda?

Yeah.

Um, and this?

What I'm doing right now? This is
what I do for a living. All right?

I do this in business.
I, um... I close deals.

I... I get people to do
exactly what I want them to do.

I find ways...

- [EXHALES SHARPLY, BREATHING HEAVILY]
- ... to make them change their minds.

All right? But I can't do
that here. Do you know why?

Because if my kid was in danger,
I would not open this door.

If my family was in danger, I
wouldn't open the door either, okay?

But these people out here,
they need to know something.

They need to know what's happening,

so they can speak to their families.

- Hear their voices. Say goodbye.
- [CRIES, SNIFFLES]

Amanda, we, um... We
know about the deal.

Yeah? The deal?

So they get the deal, then what?

Amanda, they get their
money, and then what happens?

[INHALES, EXHALES DEEPLY]
They send a message.

And they say that they've done
it. That the... the deal is done.

And then once I get the
message, that's when I land.

- So we do land?
- [EDDIE] Yes!

- Only if I get that message.
- [SHUSHES]

[SAM] And if you don't get the message?

I-If the message doesn't come
through, what happens next, Amanda?

Then I crash it. [BREATHING HEAVILY]

I fly into the middle of London.

Otherwise, they k*ll
Elodie, and they k*ll Tom,

and I'm sorry, I won't let
that happen. [BREATHES SHAKILY]

[NEWSCASTER] But one would imagine
usual protocols will be in place.

Houses of Parliament,
the Shard, The London Eye.

We're talking about...

- Ah, ah, ah.
- ... a massive and urgent evacuation

of key sites in its path...

- Think of something. It's your job.
- [SAM] Hey...

- [SAM SHUSHES]
- Battering down!

Amanda, that noise,

there are these people out here
and they're trying to get in,

but we can stop that. You
and me. Right now. Okay?

I... I'm sitting right opposite
one of the-the main hijackers,

and he's told me something. And
it's something I need to tell you.

I don't want to, but I
feel like I have to, okay?

It's something about Elodie.

Amanda, he's told me
that whatever happens...

- [EDDIE SHOUTS]
- ... they're gonna k*ll her anyway.

Okay? That's who these people are,
and that's what they're gonna do.

Amanda, listen to me, okay?

They will make sure
she is not a witness.

All right? Whatever you do,
whether you crash this plane or not,

that is what is gonna happen, okay?

So, I can get these people out of here.

You can land this plane. We
can do this, okay? All right?

And you... [SIGHS]

... y-you will save everyone else.

[NEWSCASTER] They said
the air travel industry...

Face the f*cking front.

[ALICE] Sam, I'm gonna
put you on speaker.

Yes. I'm doing the same.

That's gonna help us help you.

But mine will be the
only voice you hear.

You are my plane on my flight

You're flaming out?
You've burnt all your fuel?

Yeah. We b*rned the fuel.

I don't know what she's talking about.

- Do you understand? Exact heading.
- [ALICE] Can she hear me?

- Can you hear me, Sam?
- What code... What does that mean?

- Look at me. Okay.
- I can't do it.

- [SAM] Um...
- [ALICE] Can she hear me?

- Can you hear me?
- [CRYING]

Listen to me. Alice, do me
a favor, listen to me, okay?

Amanda, she sh*t and k*lled the
pilot. Not because she wanted to,

but because they're holding
her family, all right?

They're holding her daughter,

and she needs some assurances

that she's not gonna go
to jail as soon as we land.

- Can you help with that?
- I can't do that. We don't have time to...

No. Excuse me. Listen to me.

I need you to tell me
that there's someone there,

that is listening, that can offer
some assurances to the pilot.

Right now. Please.

S-Sam, if-if what you're
saying is true then...

then Amanda will-will face no charges.

- Who is that? Sorry... Sorry, who is it?
- I'm Neil Walsh, Home Secretary.

I repeat, no charges.
You have my word for that.

That... That is a resigning matter.

- You hear that, yeah?
- Okay.

So, now you can bring this home.

- All right? Okay?
