Post by bunniefuu »

Let me show you what your father did.

He blew up the Skanda pub.

Alaric Henderson's confession

is on my phone.

He said they had to talk

you off a bridge.

Why did she lie to me?

She was trying to protect you.

When you get out,

anything you want,

call me and it's yours.

You should see the footage I've got.

The Black

Sea in June.

Holiday of a lifetime, until

something went wrong.

- We don't have to lose.

- How?

Theoretically, the voting system

could be hacked.

Tell me that's another deep-fake

recording.

Is this a joke?

Made for women by men,

like the rest of the world.

What was your role in the Skanda

bombing?

I vowed to protect the union.

I think you've done it!

Transfer of power at midnight.

Give an unhappy woman some hope

and she is yours.

If what you did, you did for the

union,

it's done now,

so you can be honest with me.

We'll discuss this in the morning.

Dad? Dad? Dad! Dad!

London 06:00.

Our newly won independence offers

freedom

but with that freedom there comes a

challenge.

Are we brave enough to take on

the challenge of independence?

Do we have the courage

to write a new chapter

into the

history of this country.

Let's for a second draw

on our past.

Our contributions to science

alone have been immense.

Can you imagine

a world without Penicillin,

televisions,

phones?

Once again our voice can be heard

on the global stage.

A voice for justice,

fairness and compassion.

And for those of you already

condemning these ideas as unrealistic

I don't blame you.

Yesterday, it was unrealistic.

But today we can make our

long cherished dreams a reality.

Are you ready to make history?

Yes. Are you?

The Head of Operation will meet you

at the power station.

His name is Mitchell McGuigan.

I have to wear this?

Our GRU friends will affect

an electrostatic discharge

causing a microchip burnout.

The repair call to Rieper Hansen

will divert to you.

This is the machine

you need to get to.

First opportunity,

type in the security code you got

from Torben's laptop.

We insert the USB, type in the code,

three minutes to upload and get out.

Redback, 1,000 to one shot.

But here we are.

This close to victory.

Hey! Dad! Dad!

Hey!

Last night,

I spoke with the Heads of Security,

Legal and Tech

and we are of one mind.

The Scottish referendum was stolen.

We must take every measure necessary

to reunite ourkingdom.

Get your bots-blitzing social media

and all news agencies

with stories

discrediting this result.

Wait. That's not their job. We're not

Russia.

We soon will be if we don't react!

And tell the

Prime Minister I'll be there by nine. Go.

Our job is to stop Redback.

You think this isn't Redback? I'm having

trouble seeing a future for you here.

Mr. Ogilvy.

Thanks for this. Short notice.

Take a seat.

No, no. It won't take long.

I've instructed the heads of

Technical Operations and Analysis

to begin a full-scale investigation

into how a

swing of the magnitude

you suffered last night was achieved.

I'm sorry, you're You're saying

the system actually was hacked?

The final count was consistent

with the exit polls.

I need you to make a statement

challenging

the validity of the vote,

instigate a moratorium

while investigations are carried out.

Unless

you think the country should be scythed in

half on the basis of a couple of exit

polls.

By challenging the result of the

vote, we'd be risking civil unrest.

I warned you about Redback.

You didn't listen.

Yes, we think Russia

hacked the system

to rig the vote and then release the

tape to explain the result.

- All I'm asking is for two weeks

- Where's the proof?

What? Well, that's what we need the

investigation for.

You believe the system was hacked.

Come to me with proof,

I'll give you two weeks.

I'll give

you as long as you need.

So, someone in this building

has facilitated a coup d'état

and you're OK with that, are you?

How f*cking dare you!

Special Branch examined the tape.

They said it was recorded by

a directional mic

200, 300 yards from here.

You knew what was at stake.

Why didn't you

just say the tape was fake?

Because it wouldn't have been the

truth.

Oh, the truth! The f*cking truth!

There are things more important

than the truth.

I couldn't disagree more.

Your naivety disgusts me!

This meeting's over.

Prime Minister, I implore you, I beg

you,

go to the cameras,

declare the result void. Please!

I believe in democracy.

I work for the British

people. And, unlike you,

I was elected to carry

out their will.

The result must stand.

You two you don't even know

what you've done.

Still here? Good. Saves a phone call.

As you said,

you did warn us about Redback.

Set up a designated team

to counter the threat.

Then you allowed a Russian mole

to operate in the heart

of this designated team.

I've commissioned a judicial enquiry

into you and your department.

I thought you should know.

IDs, please.

Go ahead.

Thank you, sir.

What you do today,

changes Europe for ever.

Katrine?

I'm in pain.

There are a thousand ways to k*ll

pain. In one hour you can buy them all.

It's mine.

Thank you very much, sir. Thank you.

Good morning, sir. My name is

I know who you are. You're late.

Hello? Hello? Look, I need to use the loo.

Can you let me out? Can you let me out?

What's with the banging?

Miss Ogilvy needs

to use the facility.

The system your company installed is

barely two weeks old.

Our CEO has asked me to

pass on his apologies.

Our diagnostics have

detected a ergostatic surge.

It completely burnt out your CPU.

How long is this all gonna take?

It's gonna take 30 minutes. In and

out.

Nila, Tyler, Benny, Kita.

Hi.

Glitch will be fixed very soon.

Hands.

Move.

Gonna grab a donut. Anybody want

anything?

Staying strong here.

Benny Sørensen?

Benny?

Ah, that's nice.

You are talking about

Benny from Skagen?

No.

- Preben?

- Gunst.

What are you doing here,

Preben Gunst?

Mitchell said I should say hello.

Where are you from?

Where are you from, Benny?

Kopenhem.

"Kopenhem"? You don't sound

like you're from Copenhagen.

Where's Tyler?

He heard a doughnut calling him.

Nice to meet you.

Stop!

Are you done yet? Is that blood?

Oh, it's mine.

What happened?

You see, they took out the stitches

too soon. I told them this would happen.

Nila, could you show Kita the

bathroom? There's a first-aid kit in there.

Thanks.

All right?

Have you seen this?

Adam's asked me

to polish his resignation speech.

Do you think we should congratulate

Isla Robson?

I think the less

we say about Scotland, the better.

Scotland no longer exists.

A message from Sir David.

The 1922 Committee would

like you as caretaker PM.

He says it's

unanimous

and for some reason he's added '

a smiley emoji wearing a monocle.

A symbol of royal ascent.

I want Chief Adviser.

Sorry?

When you're installed as Prime

Minister, I'm your Chief Adviser.

We've lined up a seat for you.

Mm. In the Cotswolds. f*ck the

Cotswolds. I know what I'm worth.

Nicky

You set me up.

Digital voting?

Do you think I'm stupid?

Do you think I was shocked when

the tape surfaced?

Non-negotiable.

Gavril.

All is ready.

Get comfortable.

Wait for the panic.

Look at you. This is

a momentous day for us. Smile a bit.

I will. I'll smile when William

Ogilvy, he is dead.

You don't need to do that now, you

know?

Oh, I do. With what I know,

I mean, he's not going to let me

live.

I've got a slight itch here.

You might have to give it a scratch.

You see that? When I increase the

feedwater.

Mm, the temperature went up. Do it

again.

Oh, that shouldn't happen. Um

Show me.

It's already Show me. OK. Give it

two minutes. See if it settles down.

Oh, hi. You haven't seen my phone,

have you? I put it down in the kitchen.

You've been helping Adam with his

resignation speech.

Yeah. A line here and there.

Maybe I could help you with your

acceptance address.

I'm sure you'd wanna thank us for

rescuing you.

Of course.

You were ready to quit. The next Tory

leader in the gutter.

What happened to you?

You know what happened.

I watched the Foreign Secretary leave

for that flight.

A trip to the Black Sea.

God knows

who came back.

I had a breakdown.

Why are you going on..

Etta here

doesn't think I'm up to the top job.

Either your friend is the king of

abysmal advice

or he's been shafting you.

The referendum was my idea, Etta.

Yeah, and what I remember is this guy

bullying you to stick to it.

Bullying?

And then there was that

fake-the-results chat with your

little accomplice.

She only had that

conversation because you told her to.

Absolutely not.

And worst of all,

you advise Adam to conceal Holly's

DNA results until after the vote.

- I'm not going to.

- Zac, hold on.

Which also somehow manages to get

leaked,

which almost leads to Holly k*lling

herself, you little sh*t!

What?

The police found her on Westminster

Bridge.

Why didn't you tell me?

She didn't want you to know. She said

she wasn't going to do it.

Well, I'll give her a call.

I wouldn't. She doesn't want you

anywhere near her.

Hard to believe, isn't it?

When you're so

f*cking wonderful.

Hello? Holly. Where are you?

I'm heading back to Scotland. Marcus,

I've done something stupid.

What have you What have you done?

Remember you told me you were

investigating Zac Clark?

Yeah.

Well, I kinda borrowed his phone.

- Tell me you're joking.

- It's OK.

I threw it in the Thames.

Marcus, they completely used me.

f*ck them.

Yes, we are aware. Yes. OK, will do.

Thank you. Bye.

350. You said if it got above

I know what I said.

That was the Head of Monitoring at Rosatom.

Apparently, we've got a problem. 350?

And rising.

These must be wrong.

We need to raise the control rods.

Shut down the reactor.

OK, if it gets above 400

What the hell?

Get that switched off.

Now!

It's almost three o'clock.

I canceled the speech.

You're challenging the result?

- No.

- Then why are you

I swore an oath of office. If they want to get

rid of me, they'll have to stage a contest.

That'll take months.

It'll take enough time for me to

persuade the membership

that Zac isn't the right person

to lead the country.

Me not trusting Zac isn't the same as

wanting you to stay on.

The country's at a crossroads.

Oh, for God's sake! Spare me the

speech. Why are you so incapable of change?

People don't change, Etta.

That's not true. I used to love you.

The control rods are not responding.

Try it again. Use the backup

generator!

Nothing, nothing is working!

Units 5 and 6 overheating.

sh*t. I need to speak to the Minister for

Energy. So, get him out of the meeting!

Your father's back.

How could you do that? What were you

thinking?

If you do not have a belief that you

would die for, you do not deserve to live.

What's happened?

The Prime Minister f*ck! I thought

we'd hit the bottom with Johnson.

Look, why did you lock me up in here?

Huh? I'm asking you a question.

I needed some time to think.

So, now I can leave, can I?

Miss Robson,

your Head of Operations confirmed

that if the temperature on the

reactor continues to rise,

you're six hours from

meltdown.

I'm at the conference

in Scotland right now.

Our state atomic energy board har

authorized any assitance you require.

We have mobilized a team of science

advisors

trained for this precise eventuality.

I need your permission

How can you know what the problem is?

We had an identical situation with

the same Rieper Hansen reactor in Sorgut.

The EDF have offered help.

The EDF Do I have permission to

What did the Prime Minister say?

He refused to challenge

the vote.

He didn't want to allow time for an

investigation.

Last night you didn't answer my

question. The b*mb.

Did I not?

No, you obfuscated. You danced round

it. You didn't answer me, did you?

Oh, well, yes, I gave the order.

Well, I insinuated it

I didn't think 11

God, no! But, yeah

Down to me.

And the attempts at assassination on

the Prime Minister?

How did they hack Etta

Cornwell's diary?

How did they get access to

those encrypted CPU calls?

Dad?

Well, that was an operation that was

always going to be a ba*ls-up, wasn't it?

I just thought

it would give, urm, Cornwell a boost.

Do you know the Cold w*r

was won in this room?

Strategies devised at this table

brought down the Soviet Union.

And then the politicians came along

and allowed Russia

to crawl out of the corpse.

Russia!

Whose only intention is

to forge a new reality

in which everyone loses.

You have to make a statement to the

police and tell them what you just told me.

Yes, of course.

- Where are you going?

- I just need ten minutes.

Why?

I'm not gonna top myself if that's

what you're thinking.

I need to phone the DG. Let him

know that you want a prosecution.

Well, it's down to the CPS.

No, no. This is what you want.

It's

down to you.

At least do me the honor of

acknowledging that.

Make the call here.

Ten f*cking minutes, Beatrice, for

God's sake.

News of a malfunction at the Gairloch

nuclear power station

in Scotland is coming

in.

Initial reports are saying the reactors

at the facility have lost the capability

of pumping

cooling water into the core.

If water levels

continue to drop,

there is a real danger of a

nuclear meltdown.

In an apparent snobb to the English

government.

First Minister, Isla

Robson,

has accepted the offer of help

from the Russian

State Atomic Energy Corporation.

What's the holdup?

Live from Inverness, we join Sabine

Mackenzie.

This is the seventh

There's a bear in our back yard. Have

you spoken to anyone?

Not yet.

Spetsnaz boots. Military issue.

Isla Robson's invited the Russians

to invade our country.

Redback's final metastasis.

The Russians are pumping in seawater

to cool the rods.

Mitchell McGuigan. You can go. Go.

Look, this is Scotland's problem.

No. Regnum Defende. The Defense of

the Realm as a whole.

Look, you were about to go to the

police and make a statement.

I'm not letting you

walk away from that.

Our country has never needed us more.

No!

Right, listen, this Skanda business

goes to court,

you spend the rest of your life

in prison.

I will?

You set up the attack.

Used a suicidal agent,

he survives, you hang it on Laird, he

gets away, you track him down,

sh**t him, make it look

self-inflicted.

Jelena warned me not to use

Kelvin

because she said it's too easy to

manipulate people when they love you.

Isn't it?

We are paid by the Crown to counter

by any means necessary

those who would overthrow

parliamentary democracy.

The Realm was

under threat, we took appropriate action.

What you did, that was the threat.

All right? People would be horrified

to know what you did in their name.

The British public would stand up

and applaud.

Would they? Well, let's take this now

to the police.

All right? See what response you get!

Well, obviously, I can't let you do

that now, can I?

Because you know that you'll lose.

Because we're at w*r!

Oh, Dad.

Listen.

I need you with me.

I want you with me.

You and me, Beatrice. We are a team.

No, no.

If you don't have a belief

you'd die for, you don't deserve to live.

That's what you

said, isn't it?

I would die for the truth.

Made my decision for me.

No, no. Dad. Dad! No, Dad! No. Dad.

Dad! No. Dad!

Find Sergov.

Tell him to call me immediately.

Gavriil, a favor you owe me.

It's your address.

Female. Thirty-seven.

William

There are two guards. I don't want

them implicated.

I never want to know any details.

Call me when it's done.

You have that?

Yeah, I got it.

Let me out! Come on! Let me out of

here!

Gavril, Beatrice wasn't

a part of the plan.

I will do it,

but it is total sh*t.

I will call you.

William Ogilvy?

I'll help you get him.

We need to talk.

What about?

Dead men who won't lie down. William

Ogilvy and Adam Cornwell.

What is she doing here?

We'll take care of her.

Get a drink.

Wait for her father.

Why are you here? You've won anyway.

Won because you're insane.

We're insane?

You don't think causing a nuclear

meltdown is insane?

I thought you were supposed to be

smart. We faked it.

Who sent you to k*ll me? Was it my

father?

So, you are smart.

Hey! I want them both.

She pointed a g*n at me.

Yeah, well but she actually shot me.

So, are we working for William now,

How much is he paying you?

Katrine!

Hey! If I wanted you dead, you would

have been dead.

Drop the blade. Look.

That's supposed

to make me trust you?

You got anything better?

Why did you k*ll him?

He played me.

Well

Yeah, imagine that. Trusting the

wrong man.

Where are you gonna go?

I don't know.

Are you beaten?

What?

Well, you've been betrayed and you've

been used.

I've been betrayed?

I'm asking you Are you beaten?

Of course I'm not beat. Ask him if

I'm beat.

OK. I know what we do.

Something's gone wrong.

I am honored. Scotland's first-ever

Prime Minister.

General.

Three-hundred men and women

have flown in to help you.

They will need

accommodation.

Three-hundred?

Miss Robson, we have 26-billion

rubles in Scottish banks.

England is intent on

destroying you.

Our investment must be

protected.

You need to close the border.

No. Absolutely not.

The sabotage of the nuclear plant

was an act of w*r

carried out by your oldest enemy.

If you don't close the border,

I will.

But it will look

better coming from you.

We were used. I didn't switch sides,

you did. I need to know why.

Well, sometimes one lie makes you

realize that everything you said was a lie.

What, and that's it?

In ten minutes we walk into the bear

cage.

If you're not 100 percent,

you're going to get me k*lled.

That cuts both ways.

You can't be thinking about what your

father did.

Don't worry about me. I'm going there

to do a job and then I put him away.

Madam Redback!

If I were to give military medals

you would want one.

Did you hear about the Ogilvy woman?

She wants to come home?

When your father orders your

execution, things change.

But, of course, that's That's

your decision.

I think I need to hear it from her.

OK.

She's here. She's talking to General

Groschev. Switch to video.

Oh, my brilliant girl.

- My friends, let's have a drink

- To us.

When powerful men set themselves

against truth,

they must be stopped, no matter who

they are.
