ARCHIE: You can't turn back time

to stop what happened to Sarah.

Summer 2018?

I was on a mission summer 2018.

Didn't go well.

Summer 2018, did

you reset the clock?

- ARCHIE: Yeah.

- Hi.

- How many times?

- A lot.

We have to go again.

We have to try again.

The mission was successful.

REBROV: I remember

you from Paris.

Last one standing.

WES: Dennis Rebrov.

He's on almost every terror

watchlist in the world.

- He's ex-Lazarus?

- One of our brightest and best.

You want to turn back time?

Yes.

Okay.

Oh, hey, Faye.

Hey.

Everything all right?

Everything's great.

WES: Okay, people,

people, let's gather.

It's a group called

the Lost Glory.

They've got a name like an

impotence awareness campaign

but they're a serious outfit.

And we believe, at some

point, in the next few months,

they're gonna be in

possession of Big Boy.

Rebrov's confirmed

they are the group

he was working with in Paris.

Oh, Virgil Isaacs.

Leader of the Glory since 2015.

If anyone knows where Big

Boy is, it's this man.

So, do we have a lead

on where they are?

Well, we haven't got anything

concrete from Rebrov,

but Interpol have given us

a lead on a possible base

in the Czech Republic.

Fifty miles from Prague.

So, we're going hunting.

- GEORGE: Hey.

- Hey.

Look, um, I want in on this.

What, the mission?

No. You're not going.

Ah, come on.

Archie, I need this.

Why? Why do you need it?

What part of joining a wet team

in a scraggy bit of

land in Eastern Europe

to fight with t*rrorists

do you need right now?

Uh, I wanna be useful.

Well, you're not

useful. Not currently.

- Not in the field.

- Why not?

What, you think

'cause I lost someone,

that makes me weak?

I can do this.

Look, I trust you, okay?

This isn't about that.

But I'm not going

to rush you back.

And that's my final word on it.

REBROV: They're

a pseudo-fascist,

libertarian,

free-the-people-

from-the-shackles-of-whatever,

and so on,

f*cking nonsense group.

The Lost Glory. Jesus.

I'm offended to be

working with these people.

Well, Interpol gave us

a lead on their base

so, pretty soon they won't

be working with anyone.

If they get wiped out,

that's my best chance of

getting to Big Boy gone.

Relax. The b*mb's

not going anywhere.

The key's the detonator.

- That's the endgame.

- (METAL CLANKS)

So, how do I get it?

I give you a contact

who can make it for you.

Who?

Someone who's as likely to

slit your throat and bury you

in an unmarked

grave as help you,

but I guess that's just a risk

I'm going to have to

be willing to take.

Yeah, that sounds great.

What if Lazarus get to

the b*mb before then?

Tell the Lost Glory

they're coming.

Well, do they have

a phone number?

They have a YouTube page.

You're sh1tting me.

No.

Write them a convincing

message. They'll scatter.

And the detonator?

Carrer de Santa Teresa,

08012, Barcelona.

That's the address.

When you get there,

you tell her from me,

this couldn't have

gone any other way.

(TYPING)

(TYPING)

(CLICKS)

Sorry, it's a bit cold.

JANET: Yeah. I suppose

that's the worst part

of pregnancy, right? Cold tummy.

Until there's a medicine

ball coming out your vag*na.

TECHNICIAN: That

part's arguably worse.

(CHUCKLES)

And how many nights will it

be till the baby is sleeping

through the night do you reckon?

Week at most?

(MONITOR BEEPS)

TECHNICIAN: Do you want to

know what you're having?

(CHUCKLING) Having a real good

f*cking time is what I'm having.

She talks a lot

when she's nervous.

- What is it?

- (MONITOR BEEPS)

A little boy.

A little boy.

Oh, wow.

(SARAH GIGGLES)

(COIN CLATTERING)

(SCOFFS)

I don't know what to say.

Congratulations is traditional.

ARCHIE: f*ck, Janet,

you know the deal.

Time your conception to

just before the checkpoint.

It's so romantic when

you put it like that.

- Janet

- Archie.

We didn't exactly

plan it, you know?

I mean, there are reasons

these rules get put in place.

Get pregnant between

January and June,

and if we go back to

the previous year,

the worst thing you lose

is probably a pregnancy.

Get pregnant between

July and December

and you could lose

something a lot worse.

I know.

The worst thing you lose

could be a lot worse.

Firstly, I've lost

a pregnancy before,

so let's not dismiss that

as no big deal, okay?

And secondly, don't talk to me

like I don't know the rules.

I've been doing this

longer than you.

I'm sorry.

- That's fine.

- (MACHINE CHIMING)

So, when are you due?

Pretty much July 1st.

What happens if it's early?

What happens if you have your

baby before the checkpoint

and we have to jump

back 12 months?

Why not get a termination

and follow protocol?

Why take the risk?

This is my baby.

This one. That's all there is.

Well then, congratulations.

(GLASSES CLINK)

(EXHALES)

GEORGE: Just going away

for a little bit, love.

Got something I need to do.

Think it might all be a bit

f*cking mental, to be honest,

but there you are.

I'm not gonna lie, it's

sh*t packing without you.

Who's going to tell me I

don't need that many t-shirts

for a weekend away?

"Don't pack that size deodorant,

"you'll only have to

chuck it at the airport."

What am I gonna do?

Blow up the plane with

my Sure Ice? (CHUCKLES)

I checked in online.

Printed off my boarding pass

so I'll put that

in with my passport

in the front of my bag.

Like you always tell me.

f*cking hell.

(EXHALES)

(DOOR CREAKS)

Hello?

Hello?

WOMAN: Who are you?

GEORGE: Rebrov sent me.

He told me, "This couldn't

have gone any other way."

How much?

How much what?

How much trouble is he in?

GEORGE: So, we got a tip-off

and picked up some

of his friends.

One of them gave him up.

He doesn't have any friends.

- GEORGE: Clearly.

- After the checkpoint then.

You know about the checkpoints?

I was in Lazarus, just like you.

- When?

- JANET: Long time ago now.

- Dennis didn't mention that?

- GEORGE: No.

What did he mention about me?

That you're as likely to

slit my throat as help me.

Uh, look, I need you to make

me a detonator, I need a

(GIRL SPEAKING SPANISH)

(JANET SPEAKING SPANISH)

(SIREN WAILING)

Dennis and I haven't seen

each other for a long time.

But we have a system.

Phrases that we pass

on to each other

with different meanings.

"Trust this person,"

"Be wary." "k*ll on sight."

Different messages

that only we know.

"This couldn't have gone

any other way." Huh.

What does that mean then?

Will you stay for

dinner, George?

(SIREN WAILING)

How much blood?

- Not much. It's just spotting.

- What's spotting?

Read the f*cking

leaflets and you'd know.

Well, I haven't read

the f*cking leaflets,

so why don't you tell me?

Spotting! It's what it

sounds like. Spots of blood.

Is it a lot? Is it too much?

I don't know, I'm not a doctor.

They need to make those

damn sirens louder.

(SIREN WAILING)

It's fine.

You're totally healthy,

the baby's fine.

- Oh, thank God.

- Are you sure?

Because I think I ran over

some people on the way here.

(CHUCKLES) He's joking.

Look, it happens sometimes

and we do get a lot of very

panicked mums coming in,

but you have nothing

- to worry about.

- It's just

It's a delicate pregnancy.

But it's also a healthy one.

Any more bleeding or any

questions or concerns,

always come straight back.

Try not to run anyone

over, though, hmm?

REBROV: Mmm. (EXHALES)

SHIV: I'm in position.

Awaiting orders.

Affirmative. We're here, Shiv.

What's going on?

Got a tip-off that a

rogue state's planning

on selling chemical

weapons to North Korea.

Shiv's on the ground

now. Where have you been?

- Nowhere.

- She had a bleed.

- What?

- It's fine. We saw the doctor.

- You sure?

- Absolutely.

REBROV: I drove very fast.

JANET: He really did.

- You okay?

- Fine.

She had a bleed.

THE DANE: She's bleeding?

- What's going on?

- JANET: Nothing.

- Everything's fine.

- Janet's bleeding.

I I'm not. I'm fine.

Everything's fine.

You went to the doctor?

REBROV: He said it was

actually quite common.

- I have leaflets.

- WES: I can confirm

Agent Rebrov has leaflets, Shiv.

Any movement there?

SHIV (OVER SPEAKER): Yeah.

Yeah, I've got the car

coming from the West.

Looks like the drop

off's happening

SHIV: I've got

eyes on the target.

Looks like he's

closing the deal.

Do I have a green light?

Green light.

Shiv. You are go for extraction.

Copy that.

(JANET SCREAMING)

NURSE: And one last push.

Really well done!

Ooh. Ooh.

(BREATHING HEAVILY)

NURSE: One last push.

(GRUNTING AND SCREAMING)

NURSE: And here's your boy.

(BABY CRYING)

(JANET PANTING) Hi. Hello.

Oh.

(EXCLAIMS) Hi.

(BABY COOING)

(BABY COOING)

(KNOCK AT DOOR)

We sh*t the wrong man.

He uses decoys.

Intel f*ck-up.

What's the next move?

We're going back out there.

There's talk on the channels

that he may have made

the arms sale already.

The North Koreans

have the weapons?

No. We think that

was a decoy, too.

That's a lot of

f*cking decoys, Shiv.

I know.

Who has the weapons?

We don't know.

Well, you need to find them.

We're working on that. Promise.

I'm getting on a plane

I don't need you

to talk about it,

I need you to do it.

So, what, what's

your story then?

All I know about you is that

you have a history with Rebrov,

might want to k*ll me

and you can make detonators

for nuclear warheads.

Well, what else is there?

Could start with your name.

I don't want to

tell you my name.

Is that little

girl your daughter?

I don't want to talk

about her either.

Do you have a favourite

football team?

Crystal Palace.

I wasn't actually expecting you

to have an answer to that one.

Go Eagles.

Palace?

Makes sense why you want

to blow up the planet.

I don't want to

blow up the planet.

Oh, just the nuclear detonator

thing suggests differently.

I won't be the one pressing it.

That'd be you.

Yeah.

Do you want to

blow the planet up?

No. I just want

to turn back time.

There you go then.

Your name's Janet, isn't it?

Archie told me about you.

Told me what happened.

I'm sure she didn't

tell you all of it.

REBROV: Maybe we should

go out for a walk.

Take our minds off things.

I don't want to go

for a f*cking walk,

I want to find out what's

happening with the arms deal.

Two days. Less than that now.

This isn't a "No news

"is a good news'

situation, Dennis.

What if they're

already all dead?

What if they're

giving the order now?

I've talked to Wes,

I've talked to Archie,

I've spoken to everyone,

and I've told them to

keep us in the loop.

Less than 48 hours

till the checkpoint

and there's a missing

chemical w*apon out there.

Keeping us informed

isn't the priority.

In fact, I'd say it's the

exact opposite of that.

(BABY CRYING THROUGH MONITOR)

(SOFTLY) I'll go.

(BABY COOING)

It's okay. Hey.

In the end, it wasn't

Lazarus that told us.

It was a contact of

Dennis' at the CIA.

(CELL PHONE RINGING)

JANET: He'd picked

up wire reports

of a detonation in China.

(PHONE CONTINUES RINGING)

We were just hours

from the checkpoint.

Hours from our son being safe.

(BABY COOING)

(SHUSHES)

(SHUSHES)

I'm not sure you should be here.

What is going on?

There was a chemical

weapons att*ck.

That's just countryside.

That's a rural area.

WES: It's a Chinese

m*llitary compound.

(BABY COOING)

What are the casualty reports?

What's Beijing saying?

Their fleet has been

made att*ck-ready.

No one's claimed credit for it?

We've intercepted communications

between the Russians

and the Chinese.

They're blaming the Americans.

They can't substantiate that.

They don't have to.

The wheels are

already in motion.

(SCOFFS)

This is ridiculous.

It's a code black.

I'm authorising us to go back.

(BABY COOING)

(TYPING)

(DIGITAL CHIMING AND BEEPING)

(ALARM BEEPING)

(CHIMING)

Wes, we don't know how

it's going to pan out.

WES: No.

And we don't have the

time to wait and see.

Please, please, please.

Wes, Wes, please

It's too risky. I'm sorry.

Faye, make the call.

(BABY COOING)

Look at him. Look at him.

(CRYING)

You'll k*ll him.

- Help.

- (CHIMING)

You're k*lling him.

(BABY CRYING)

You don't know how this

is going to play out.

There's no evidence linking

this to the Americans,

this is This is

just Chinese posturing.

We can use diplomatic

channels

If I had a week, yes,

even if I had a few

days, but I don't.

I don't even have a

day, I've hours left,

and the Chinese are making

all the wrong kinds of noises,

and our window of opportunity

to undo this is vanishing.

- I don't have a choice.

- (INCESSANT BEEPING)

- JANET: Please

- Faye, make the call.

Please don't do this. Please,

please, please don't do this.

Wes.

JANET (CRYING): Please, please,

please, please don't do this.

Get back to work!

(SOFTLY) Jesus f*cking Christ.

Jesus f*cking Christ.

JANET: Please, please.

JANET: I want to have

a funeral for him.

Other mothers get

that, don't they?

When their baby dies, they

get to have a funeral.

(KNOCK AT DOOR)

SHIV: I didn't know what to

We tracked down

the buyers, but

JANET: I don't need

a debrief, Shiv.

All the intel pointed to

that man being the target.

There was no way to know that

- f*ck, I am so f*cking sorry.

- JANET: Yeah.

People keep saying that to us.

f*cking hell.

JANET: That wasn't

the end of it.

Not by a long sh*t.

You can sleep on the sofa.

Tomorrow I'll start work.

MAN (OVER RADIO): units

approaching the compound.

ETA 20 minutes.

MAN (OVER RADIO): Stand by

Hold your position.

SHIV: George seem okay to you?

ARCHIE: Better than he was.

SHIV: That's what concerns me.

Pretty keen to come on

this mission, wasn't he?

He just wants to be useful.

- What?

- SHIV: You know what.

This guy was in an office

making shitty phone

apps a year ago.

Now he thinks he's

James f*cking Bond,

and his girlfriend's dead,

and he's screaming at us

to let him join a mission

he's totally ill-equipped for.

He wasn't ready for Paris,

he isn't ready for this.

None of it. Tell

me if I'm wrong.

I think you're wrong.

Well, I hope so.

Eagle 4-2. Go.

ARCHIE: They left in a hurry.

Someone must have told

them we were coming.

WOMAN: Found something.

Might not be a wasted trip.

(CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKS)

I lost a baby, too.

It wasn't the same,

but it wasn't born, really,

if you think about it.

(SIGHS) It was

It's okay.

How do you know how to do that?

(INHALES SHARPLY)

I went to night classes.

(CHUCKLES SOFTLY)

I'm good with machines.

Good at understanding

how things work.

Do you know how the

time loops work?

I've got an idea.

- And?

- I hope I'm wrong.

(BUZZING)

Why are you helping me?

Because I owe Dennis.

And because

even though he's not perfect,

he deserves better than being

stuck in a Lazarus cell.

He wants to destroy the world.

JANET: He doesn't want

to destroy the world.

He's hurting.

People lash out when they hurt.

I went to the doctor.

It worked.

I'm pregnant.

How's he looking?

TECHNICIAN: Everything's

exactly right.

Except your pronouns.

(MACHINE BEEPS)

You're having a girl.

- A girl?

- TECHNICIAN: Mmm-hmm.

Would you like a copy?

Erm

We've made it.

(SIGHS IN RELIEF)

(STRAINING)

(JANET GRUNTING)

NURSE: Here we go.

(CONTINUES GRUNTING)

There we are.

(PANTING)

(BABY COOING)

(BABY COOING)

Hey.

Welcome home, little one.

(BABY COOING)

GEORGE: I take it

you're not drawing

a pension from Lazarus?

- JANET: No.

- How do you get by?

We manage.

This is nice. It's nice

to get out of the house.

Take a break from

the nuclear detonator

for a bit.

You like to make a joke

of things, don't you?

Yeah. I guess.

You remind me of him.

Of Rebrov? (SCOFFS)

He doesn't seem like

the joking kind.

Oh, he used to be very funny.

f*ck, I used to be funny.

You know how you said

you two had phrases that

you'd give to people

to let you know if they

could be trusted or not.

What phrase would Rebrov

have had to plant on me

to make you, like,

k*ll me on the spot?

"Big plans are afoot."

And then, what,

you'd have just

Beaten you to death

with a saucepan.

Ouch.

(WOMAN SPEAKING

FOREIGN LANGUAGE)

(ZIPS)

(SIGHS)

A fighter jet got sh*t down

and the Modeen are

being blamed for it.

Ah.

They think it could

snowball into something

- if we don't step in.

- No one told me.

We don't think it's

gonna be a big deal.

You're not keeping me out

the loop, are you, Archie?

No.

(PLANE ENGINE STARTS)

- How's the little one?

- Good.

- And Janet?

- Fine.

You'll tell her I'm thinking

of her? We miss her.

I'll tell her.

(LINE RINGING)

- (LINE CLICKS)

- ARCHIE: There's been a problem.

What kind of problem?

ARCHIE: Things are

escalating here.

There's talk of

a m*ssile strike.

REBROV: Is it

ARCHIE: It's a

code black, Dennis.

You need to talk to Janet.

(JANET GRUNTING)

NURSE: Well done.

That's it, well done.

That's it, my love.

Hello again, kiddo.

Sorry about that.

ROSS: I was

thinking, by the way,

I want you to move in with me.

She's called Sarah.

- (JANET SCREAMING)

- NURSE: There we go.

There we go, well done.

What the f*ck's going on?

They're trying everything

they can, I promise.

They're not trying hard enough.

- (JANET SCREAMING)

- NURSE: One last push.

JANET: They told

me I had a gift.

That I could use it for good.

But it's not a gift,

it's a f*cking nightmare.

- (BREATHING SHAKILY)

- (BABY COOING)

JANET: And as I went back,

time and time again, to

give birth to my daughter,

I could see it in her eyes.

She had it, too.

Get this f*cking done.

(HORN BLARING LOUDER)

(CRASHES)

How could you?

How could you do that?

(SOFTLY) How could

you f*cking do that?

JANET: In the end, neither

of us could take it anymore.

- There you go.

- (BABY COOING)

JANET: It all became

NURSE: Janet, can you hear me?

One experience.

NURSE: Push now.

- Pain and blood and screaming.

- (JANET SCREAMING)

And my daughter,

ripped from inside me,

again, and again,

and again, and

For the longest time,

I truly believed

it would never end.

(MUTED THUD)

(GLASS BREAKING)

We have to go again.

We have to try again.

WES: The opposition just took

the Parliament building

and the TV station.

Our intelligence

shows it worked.

ARCHIE (CRYING OVER PHONE):

No, Wes, please, no.

(CRYING)

It's not giving us anything new.

Okay.

- Dennis?

- Hey. You're all right, Faye.

Sit.

I need to see it. I

need to see the machine.

There is no machine.

There's got to be something.

Who are you calling?

Who's on the other

end of the line?

You know I can't share

that information with you.

What is it? A shadowy

cabal of billionaires?

Secret society?

Alien spaceship?

I need to know who the

f*ck I'm working for.

You work for me.

I'm as high up the

chain as you go.

Dennis.

I am so sorry for what

happened to you

Shut up, Wes, just shut up.

You need to go

home to your family

and you need to rest.

(FAYE AND WES SCREAM)

(BREATH TREMBLING)

The world wants to die.

It wants to die and

we keep stopping it.

(SHAKILY) Please

- Please put the g*n down.

- We're not in control here!

We don't get to decide when

we live and when we die!

(BREATHING HEAVILY)

I'm going to stop

you playing God.

I'm gonna destroy

that f*cking machine

and I'm gonna let the world do

what it so desperately

wants to do.

We've saved millions of lives.

Lives that weren't

meant to be saved!

We're not supposed to

be here! We're a pox!

What are you willing

to lose, Wes?

What are you willing

to sacrifice?

Just take me to

it, for God's sake.

No.

(WES GASPS)

She had more time than my son.

Take me to it.
