01x07 - Episode 7

[bunniefuu]

ARCHIE: You can't

turn back time

to stop what happened to Sarah.

REBROV: And are you willing

to burn down everything

- to start again?

- Yes.

WES: A nuclear warhead

nicknamed 'Big boy'

was h*jacked while in transit

REBROV: the key's

the detonator.

You worked out

where Big Boy is

Agh!

- (ENGINE ROARING)

- (SIREN WAILING)

It's Janet. He's been

sending money to her.

(TIRES SCREECHING)

Shiv would never

betray The Lazarus.

I used to say that about Rebrov.

(CLICKS)

Multiple m*ssile strikes

GRETA: Troops have moved

across the border

- They are resetting the clock.

- (ALARM BEEPING)

Now there are two

things: we lose Rebrov.

Second thing: Shiv.

(LAUGHING)

(TIRES SCREECHING)

(BRAKES SCREECH)

Agh!

I'm gonna bring her back, Shiv.

I'm gonna bring you back too.

The first thing I'm

gonna do is come for you.

I know.

(g*nsh*t ECHOES)

(EXHALES)

Son of a bitch.

- (GEORGE MOANS)

- (SARAH GIGGLES)

(SARAH LAUGHING)

(BOTH LAUGHING)

(CELL PHONE BUZZING)

(KISSING)

Er I'm I'm sorry.

I need, I need to run.

You have to leave

now? Right now?

Yeah, I know it's

imperfect timing.

I'd say (GRUNTS)

(GEORGE LAUGHS)

You're acting really weird.

(LAUGHING MANIACALLY)

I just really want to be

here with you, right now.

I want that so much.

And I'm gonna come back

and I'm gonna kiss you

and I'm never gonna

let you go. I promise.

I'm probably going to

wank and go to sleep.

Yeah, no, that's

understandable.

(SARAH LAUGHS)

(DOOR SLAMS)

(PANTING)

(g*n COCKING)

(ELEVATOR DINGS)

(TENSE MUSIC PLAYING)

(g*n COCKING)

I told you I'd bring you back.

And I told you I'd come for you.

(EXHALES)

So what's the plan now, George?

- Are you gonna sh**t me again?

- Nah, man, that's not me.

Everyone I ever k*lled

just came back to life.

I'd like to keep it that way.

And how do you think you're

gonna get away with this?

Oh, Shiv, I already did.

Everyone thinks you were

the one who let off Big Boy.

(LAUGHS)

Well, I'm happy to let

them know it was you.

What the new guy?

The app developer? No, no

one's gonna believe that.

The woman you love just

came back from the dead.

That's a pretty

big f*cking motive.

Yeah, what about the woman

you love? I met Janet.

You send her money.

Look out for her and the kid.

- She was my friend.

- And you ruined her life.

Now you owe her.

And why would we want to

set off a nuclear b*mb?

Maybe something happened

to her daughter.

Maybe right after

the checkpoint.

Just like Sarah. f*ck me, man,

she already lost one

kid because of you.

What were you supposed to do,

just let the other one die too?

- That's bullshit.

- No.

It's motive.

f*ck you, George.

I just wanted to save

my girlfriend's life.

You had to be an

arsehole about it.

- Grow up, you stupid prick.

- Oh, f*ck off!

No, you f*ck off,

you f*cking dickhead.

I'm a dickhead? You're

a f*cking dickhead.

- Look, I'm sorry

- No.

Don't f*cking apologise to me.

Shiv, what are you

fighting for here?

You don't even want this.

Look at what Lazarus

has done to you.

Janet was happy.

She'd made a little life

for herself and it worked.

You could have that too.

I could f*cking sh**t you.

That's hardly gonna make

you look less guilty.

Everyone's on their

way here now, Shiv.

You know how this ends.

What was it like?

Getting everything

you wanted back again.

Worth it.

Yeah. Yeah, well

We'll see.

- (SIGHS WEARILY)

- (DOOR OPENS, CLOSES)

(CAR HONKS IN DISTANCE)

Hey.

Is this an apology hug

for running out

on me last night?

No, more than that.

Well, I forgive you.

Where did you go?

Uh, I had like a work call

that I completely forgot about.

They called you at

midnight on your day off?

Uh yeah.

sh*t, I forgot it's my day off.

Your boss treats you like sh*t.

- I'm self-employed.

- I know.

- STUDENT: Hi, Miss.

- Morning!

Ah, sh*t. Babe, I

need to talk to Karl.

About what?

A f*cking investment thing.

Just wait here for a second.

Oh! And and watch the road.

Trucks will be coming up here.

Okay, dad.

GEORGE: Karl, Karl look,

before you say anything,

listen, I looked at my

portfolio last night

and I saw DeWhitt

and Weston tanked,

and you don't need to panic.

I moved some shares around,

I've secured your investment.

You don't need to

worry about a thing.

- Are you sure?

- Yeah, man, sure as can be.

Look, you're in safe

hands man, I got you.

(EXHALES)

(LAUGHS IN RELIEF)

Oh, wow.

Okay. Thank you, man. I

was I was pretty worried.

Ah, no, look,

sometimes you've

gotta take a risk

but there's always a

safety net. (LAUGHS)

All right, I'll

see you later, man.

See you, man.

- Is he okay?

- Yeah.

STUDENTS: Whoo!

I'll be hearing about that

for the next six months.

Sorry.

It's okay. Let's

make it a year.

- STUDENTS: Whoo!

- (SARAH CHUCKLES)

Uh, come on, go inside

(WHOOSHES)

(STUDENTS CHATTERING)

Oh, you're grinning like

an idiot, please stop it.

(CHUCKLES) Sorry.

It's disgusting.

(CHUCKLES) Maybe you

just need to get some.

Don't make me report you to HR.

Do we have an HR department?

- We did but I f*cked them all.

- (CHUCKLES)

How's Sarah?

Yeah, she keeps asking me why

I'm hugging her all the time.

- That poor woman.

- She's good, she's

Not squashed under a truck?

Not squashed under

a truck, yeah.

That's it, that's

exactly how she is.

Long may it continue.

Um, did you did you

manage to talk to Ryan?

Dead Ryan, the IT guy? Yeah.

- And?

- And your story checked out.

It was all Shiv.

It wasn't a story.

Yeah, no, I didn't mean that.

So, um, do you think

we're gonna find him or

- Shiv?

- Yeah.

If he doesn't want to be

found, he won't get found.

Rebrov didn't want to be

found and we found him.

I'm not so sure Rebrov

didn't want that.

What, you think he just let

us catch him on purpose?

Why would he do that?

To get a look at us?

To check out our weaknesses?

Honestly, I don't

know what he knows now

that he didn't before,

but I do know he's more

dangerous than he ever was.

Right.

I hadn't I hadn't

actually considered that.

Yeah, it's just a theory.

- (KEYS CLANKING)

- (DOOR OPENS)

Hey, babe.

How was work?

Fine.

Uh, one of my Year Fours tried

to put a crayon up his bum,

so that took up most

of the afternoon.

Oh, yeah, are we not

supposed to do that?

You're a grown man, George,

you can put whatever

you want up there

Okay.

I'm meeting Tash and

Susie at the pub later.

Oh, cool. I'll come.

Yeah? If you want.

We're just gonna be

talking about work mostly.

- You'll probably be bored.

- I don't mind.

Okay.

- (INDISTINCT CONVERSATION)

- (MUSIC PLAYING IN PUB)

Babe, uh I I think

I'm gonna head off.

SARAH: What? Already?

Yeah, uh, I I've

got a banging headache.

SARAH: Oh, no

Do you do you

wanna come with?

SARAH: No, I'm gonna

stay for a bit.

I won't be too late.

All right. I I'll see

(KISSES) I'll see you later.

- Bye.

- OTHERS: Bye!

- Is he all right?

- Yeah. I think so.

- D'you wanna get smashed?

- Yeah! (GIGGLES)

(INTENSE MUSIC PLAYING)

WOMAN (OVER RADIO):

Teams get into position.

Try and take Rebrov alive.

SOLDIER 1 (OVER RADIO):

Roger that. Approaching.

SOLDIER 2 (OVER RADIO):

Oscar three six, sit rep

(g*ns f*ring)

(SOLDIER GRUNTING AND GROANING)

- (g*nsh*t)

- (SOLDIER GRUNTS)

(g*nsh*t)

(SOLDIER GROANS)

BLAKE: He didn't

need to be there.

What do you mean?

ARCHIE: He knew we'd

send a team after him.

He waited there so

he could k*ll them.

- Why?

- To let us know he could.

- What about Shiv?

- Trail's cold. For now.

These cases don't close.

We never stop looking.

(SOFT INSTRUMENTAL

MUSIC PLAYING)

Are you going

anywhere this summer?

You know where I was thinking

I've never been in years. Paris.

Oh, it's so easy to get to.

City of romance, George.

Someone's angling for something.

Wow, but Paris?

I don't know. I haven't

been there since

(expl*si*n)

a while ago.

MAN: The Eurostar's the

best way of getting there.

Don't fly, honestly.

(INDISTINCT CONVERSATION)

I wish I could have a cigarette.

What, you used to smoke?

In university, I used to

smoke Silk Cut menthols

and think I was Greta Garbo

(BOTH LAUGH)

I didn't know that about you.

You didn't know I used to

smoke, Silk Cut menthols

and think I looked

like Greta Garbo?

- No.

- Huh.

Why'd you quit?

Ah, well it turned out I did not

in fact look like Greta Garbo.

I looked like my aunt Pat.

And I smelt like her too.

But I want one now.

Must be Paris.

I could smoke a cheroot.

Do you wanna do

that? Do you wanna go

buy a packet of cigarettes

and go smoke 'em by the river?

We could do a runner from here.

What, without paying?

Well, it's not doing

a runner if you pay,

it's just leaving promptly.

Er, I was kind of looking

forward to my dessert.

Yeah, okay.

Smoke cheroots then

runnings from restaurants.

Who are you and what have

you done with my girlfriend?

WAITER: Monsieur, dame,

vous avez termine?

- SARAH: Oui.

- Oh yeah, very terminated.

- SARAH: Merci.

- GEORGE: Merci.

- Great accent. You want some?

- SARAH: Thank you. I know.

Yes, yes, thanks.

Do you think I'm exciting?

Er, yeah. I think

you're really exciting.

No, I'm not, am I? I used to be.

(CHUCKLES) I mean,

maybe, maybe you grew up?

(SIGHS)

Do you remember

when we first met?

Yeah.

It feels like a

million years ago.

I wonder if I met

myself back then

if I'd even recognise myself.

I wonder what old me

would think of me now.

There's nothing wrong with you.

I know. I'm great.

Thank you.

Oh, are you sure

you don't want some?

I'm full.

It looks delicious though.

Sorry, I'm just

gonna go to the loo.

What do you remember

from the night we met?

I remember you following me

to the bus stop like a creep.

Ah, I did not follow you!

I don't even remember

whose party it was.

I was actually there

for someone else.

- What?

- Yeah.

I had a friend who I fancied

who I was planning on

getting off with that night

- Ah, I did not know that.

- (LAUGHS)

Another thing you don't know.

So what, you just, you

just went to this party

wanting to get off

with this guy and

- And I met you.

- Yeah.

And I'm glad I did.

I'm glad we came here.

What if instead of

going home tomorrow,

we went somewhere else?

Like where?

Er, I don't know. Anywhere.

We could get the train to like

Russia or Israel or Thailand.

Er

I don't think you can

get a train to Thailand.

I just think we should go to

more places and take more risks.

Is this cause I made

us pay for dinner?

No.

I just

I don't know, I

don't wanna stagnate?

Do the same job, be the

same person. Like

I need to do more

living. Go on adventures.

D'you know what I mean?

Yeah.

I mean I did just eat

a very big creme brulee

so I think I know a little about

- living life adventurously.

- (LAUGHS)

Marry me.

- What?

- I want you to marry me.

And if you're going

on adventures,

I want you to take me with you.

Marry me.

- Okay.

- Okay?

(GIGGLES) Okay.

Hi there.

I can't marry you, George.

I love you, I really do,

but lately I've been thinking,

I've been

wondering about us and

I don't know if I'm

happy really.

Not in the way a

person should be.

And it's not just you, it's

not, because you're great.

Great's such a sh*t word,

I'm sorry but you are.

And I kept thinking

maybe it's me

and it's a phase

and it will pass,

and maybe it will,

but then you asked

me to marry you

and I just had this

voice in my head,

this f*cking foghorn going

off telling me not to do it.

And I know I should have

said this to you last night,

because it's too cruel.

I know, but I can't.

(SARAH EXHALES)

I can't marry you because

I don't think we

want the same things.

I think we're

different people now.

You're just so content with

all the things I wanna change.

I'm sorry.

Er I I can

I mean, I can do

whatever you need me to.

We can go places. We can

We can do whatever you want.

I can change

things. I can change everything.

I don't want you to do that.

I don't want you to

break yourself apart

to just re-fit yourself

into something that I need.

No, no, I I am what you

need, me and you, we're

what each other needs.

We're f*ck it, we're

we're George and Sarah.

We we met at the party

and we fell in love and we

It's us.

This doesn't make any sense.

People change.

We just do.

I think we both have.

Please. Please, please

don't do this. I

I can't

We're meant to be together.

I don't think we are.

Not forever.

I'll send you the

money for this trip.

(DOOR CLOSES)

- ARCHIE: Just like that, huh?

- Just like that.

- ARCHIE: sh*t.

- (ARCADE GAME SOUNDS)

You're not gonna

like this. But

You thought this

was gonna happen.

It isn't the first time

a relationship has been

destroyed by time loops.

T's not even the first time this

relationship has been destroyed

by time loops.

I just thought,

after everything

(EXHALES)

If it's meant to be, it must be.

Assume for a minute

I'm the sort of person

who believes in the notion that

something is "just meant to be."

Maybe she did come

back for a reason.

But maybe and this might be

hard for you to comprehend,

so gird your loins,

maybe she has some

higher purpose

that is actually

nothing to do with you.

There might be some grand cosmic

plan for her that does not bear

any relation to whether

or not she's going out

with George Addo.

Women can, and again,

this is a radical

notion, so hang in there,

they can have an identity

and a reason for existing

that is completely separate from

who they're in a

relationship with.

Sit with that one

for a little while,

It's a bit of a noodle twister.

Can't I just mope about

my girlfriend dumping me

without being accused of

internalised misogyny?

Not with me, no.

Right well, remind me,

if you ever get dumped,

to take you to a pub

and make you feel worse.

Well, I won't need your

help for that, but okay.

Ah!

Shiv popped up.

(ARCADE GAME NOISES)

Hamburg.

- Doing what?

- Using his credit card

in a crowded pub

with CCTV cameras.

I don't understand.

He wants us to know he's there.

Why?

No idea. Not a f*cking clue.

Glad he's alive though.

Do you erm do you do you

really think he was a mole?

I'm not gonna sit here

and say it's impossible.

If I've learnt a single thing,

it's that any f*cking person

is capable of any f*cking thing.

Shiv included.

I will say this though,

something stinks.

Look, Sarah's alive.

I'm glad about that.

I don't know her,

I'm kind of tired of listening

to you talk about her,

but I'm glad she's with us.

It's a victory. And we

don't always get them.

And you won't feel

like this forever.

- Just feels like it right now.

- (SIGHS)

(DOOR SLAMS)

(GEORGE READING)

What the f*ck?

Oh f*ck, f*ck. f*ck,

f*ck! f*ck, sh*t!

(SIGHS)

- How do you get by?

- We manage.

WES: Professional job.

At least one of them came back

with links to a mercenary group

that's been working out East.

- Where was it?

- Hamburg.

Oh.

You don't think

this could be Shiv?

That's what you're

gonna go and find out.

COP: No one saw anything.

There was a camera

down the street

but it was disabled.

Interpol are sending someone,

so we have the bodies

on ice at the morgue.

Has anyone else

come to see them?

No. Just you and Interpol.

You're MI5, right?

No.

COP: Okay. Here we are.

GEORGE: Thanks, mate.

GEORGE: Glass on the inside.

Someone smashed the window

and came in this way.

Hmm, snuck in on them.

(CROWS CAWING)

This guy closest to the door

was sh*t seven

times in the chest.

And then ones at the

far end of the room

are all single

sh*ts to the head.

- Human shield.

- Human shield.

So, what, these guys

are all mercenaries?

From what we can tell, they

worked mostly out of China

and the Middle East.

Security jobs.

Some nastier stuff.

So, what are they doing in

a garage in a German suburb?

Whoever was in this room fired

at whoever was coming in.

Hmm.

They had a hostage.

So, this was a rescue.

Rescue attempt.

They went out this way.

Without the hostage?

ARCHIE: With.

It could all just be a

coincidence though, right?

Shiv could have been in Hamburg

for any number of reasons.

How many reasons are there

do you think to be

in Hamburg, George?

I don't know.

WES: We took a DNA

sample from the hair

that you retrieved

from the scene.

It was Janet.

So if it was a coincidence

that Shiv was in the same

area at the same time,

then it's a pretty big one.

These are the four men that

were k*lled at the scene.

But we now know there was

another person there, too.

Security camera. On the

morning of the sh**ting.

- ARCHIE: Who's this?

- WES: Zhang Rui.

A former agent for the

Ministry of State Security.

Are we sure she's retired?

That's what I'm

trying to find out.

A group of unaffiliated

mercenaries

kidnapping a former Lazarus

agent is bad enough.

But if it's the

Chinese government,

then I think we can say

that we have ourselves a

situation.

(TENSE MUSIC PLAYING)

So, what are we gonna

do? What's going on?

Nothing. I'm gonna go

talk to some people.

You're gonna talk

to some people?

- Yeah.

- Alone?

Wes wants to keep

this small for now.

Right.

Okay.

Hang tight.

Should we be worried?

ARCHIE: Always.

(CELL PHONE VIBRATING)

- Hello.

- SARAH: Hi.

Erm, everything alright?

SARAH: Yeah. Erm, er, yeah,

it's weird to hear you.

I'm sorry for calling

out of the blue.

That's That's fine.

SARAH: I just wondered,

could we meet?

Tomorrow, maybe, or

Er, yeah, yeah, yeah. I

can I can do tomorrow.

SARAH: Great. Er, thanks.

It's nothing important.

I just, erm, wanted to talk

to you about something.

- Okay.

- SARAH: It's nothing important.

SARAH: I just erm, yeah.

Meet you at the cafe at 09:00?

Yeah, yeah. I'll

I'll see you then.

SARAH: Okay. Bye.

Bye.

(SHIV GASPING FOR BREATH)

(KNOCKING ON DOOR)

Hey, Reggie! Er, how's it going?

Yeah, is everything all right?

Yeah.

Oh, I just Well, I,

erm I heard a commotion.

Oh, er no, I was I'm sorry,

I was just watching a movie.

- Oh, yeah?

- Yeah.

That's some good

speakers you got.

It sounded like a g*n went off.

I just I didn't

realise how late it was.

(CLOCK TICKING)

- Well, I should probably

- Yeah.

(WHISPERING) f*ck's sake.

GEORGE: Hi.

(SARAH CHUCKLES SOFTLY)

(GEORGE CHUCKLES)

(GEORGE LAUGHS NERVOUSLY)

- How have you been?

- Good.

Uh yeah, you

know. Working hard.

How's the app?

Oh, the app. (CHUCKLES)

Er, yeah Great, great.

Doing really good.

Strength to strength.

- That's good.

- How is school?

The same. Er, the

kids are great, but

Are you still in the flat?

Er yeah. Why, where are you?

Other side of town.

So, er What's up?

What did you wanna talk about?

I've met someone.

Oh.

We're getting married.

Okay, er, that's

I didn't want you to

hear it on the grapevine

or see it on social

media or anything.

Yeah. Er, okay, I see.

I I don't stalk you

on there or anything.

I know.

Okay. Look, that's That's

You don't have to say anything.

I know this is

really weird. I know.

I just I wanted to tell you.

I wanted to tell you and I

I wanted to say I'm

sorry for how we ended.

I never wanted to hurt you.

Who Who are you marrying?

No one you know.

I hope you don't hate me.

That'd be so much easier.

Um

This could probably

have just been a text.

- All right?

- All right.

(DOOR SLAMS)

(LINE RINGING)

ARCHIE'S VOICE:

This is Archie.

Leave a message.

Archie, it's George.

Just call me back.

Just wondering where

the f*ck you are.

(TENSE MUSIC PLAYING)

OFFICER: Mr. Addo?

Yeah?

DS Cooper.

Okay.

Do you have five minutes?

- No.

- I wanted to chat with you

about, uh, an incident that

occurred about three weeks ago.

Reports of a disturbance.

Yeah, I wouldn't know

anything about that.

You don't recall

your whereabouts

three weeks ago, George?

Huh?

Would've been the night of

June the 30th, about midnight.

Erm, I I was at home.

Yes, you were that night.

Do you remember

using the lift in your apartment

at 12:30 a.m.?

Do you like

paperwork, DS Cooper?

I f*cking live for it. Right

George Addo, I'm arresting

you on suspicion of m*rder.

Now you don't have

to say anything

(RUMBLING)

(CLOCK TICKING)

What the f*ck was that?
