00:00:37,412 --> 00:00:38,413
[knocking]

3
00:00:42,709 --> 00:00:46,463
Ingrid, how simply delightful to see you.
I would offer you tea or coffee,

4
00:00:46,463 --> 00:00:50,300
but I think what you really need is
a big slice of humble pie. What's this?

5
00:00:50,801 --> 00:00:53,804
My resignation. Let's get this over with.

6
00:00:53,804 --> 00:00:55,472
Oh, no need to go that far,

7
00:00:55,472 --> 00:00:58,058
unless there's some personal scandal
I don't know about.

8
00:00:58,851 --> 00:01:01,436
You set a tiger team on MI5.

9
00:01:01,436 --> 00:01:03,397
What's that?
I'm not familiar with the jargon.

10
00:01:03,397 --> 00:01:04,397
[Ingrid sighs]

11
00:01:06,149 --> 00:01:11,488
A tiger team is a unit employed
to test an organization's defenses.

12
00:01:11,488 --> 00:01:14,199
So, sort of set a thief to catch a thief.

13
00:01:14,199 --> 00:01:16,910
Pay someone to check whether
your security systems are any good.

14
00:01:16,910 --> 00:01:17,995
That's it.

15
00:01:18,871 --> 00:01:21,874
In that case, yes, I did do that.
Guilty as charged.

16
00:01:22,499 --> 00:01:25,085
But isn't it more to probe weaknesses,

17
00:01:25,669 --> 00:01:29,173
test whether said organization
can pass muster under pressure?

18
00:01:32,092 --> 00:01:34,219
Yes. All of that.

19
00:01:34,219 --> 00:01:36,138
And how did MI5 fare?

20
00:01:37,806 --> 00:01:40,309
One of our agents was blackmailed
into breaking into the Park

21
00:01:40,309 --> 00:01:43,562
to steal the PM's vetting file.

22
00:01:43,562 --> 00:01:45,898
So far, so bad. Did they get it?

23
00:01:45,898 --> 00:01:47,608
- [Ingrid] No.
- Shame. I'd love a gander.

24
00:01:48,150 --> 00:01:49,776
Is it true he gets
his wife to piss on him,

25
00:01:49,776 --> 00:01:51,612
or is that just a rumor I started?
I forget.

26
00:01:53,697 --> 00:01:58,202
They got close enough that this counts as
a major security breach on my watch,

27
00:01:58,202 --> 00:01:59,536
which is why I have to go.

28
00:02:07,002 --> 00:02:09,003
I don't want you to go, Ingrid.

29
00:02:11,465 --> 00:02:12,674
Then what do you want?

30
00:02:14,968 --> 00:02:16,261
[door buzzing]

31
00:02:16,261 --> 00:02:20,057
Oh. Finally. [groans]

32
00:02:24,353 --> 00:02:27,856
You made me look like a muppet
by bringing me a fake diamond

33
00:02:27,856 --> 00:02:29,775
just so you could sneak into the Park.

34
00:02:29,775 --> 00:02:33,529
Look, this has just been
one big misunderstanding. Okay?

35
00:02:33,529 --> 00:02:36,198
Please. For the 1,000th time,

36
00:02:36,907 --> 00:02:39,326
I believed that Catherine Standish's life
was in danger.

37
00:02:39,326 --> 00:02:43,372
Relax. Chieftain are handing her over now.
Standish is fine.

38
00:02:43,372 --> 00:02:44,873
I know she's fine.

39
00:02:44,873 --> 00:02:46,375
[grunts]

40
00:02:47,042 --> 00:02:51,380
F-- God's-- [groans]

41
00:02:52,297 --> 00:02:53,924
Come on! Fuck.

42
00:03:06,770 --> 00:03:10,524
Well played, mate. Well played.
Mission accomplished.

43
00:03:10,524 --> 00:03:14,319
Tiger team are a roaring success.
And the beers? On me.

44
00:03:14,945 --> 00:03:16,154
I don't drink.

45
00:03:16,154 --> 00:03:18,991
Okay, well, have a shandy then.
But a celebration is in order.

46
00:03:18,991 --> 00:03:21,994
Chieftain beat the spooks.
They're supposed to be the professionals,

47
00:03:21,994 --> 00:03:24,288
and we turned one of them into our puppet.

48
00:03:24,997 --> 00:03:26,206
This is great for business.

49
00:03:26,874 --> 00:03:29,084
Gonna get a lot of contracts out of this.
A lot.

50
00:03:29,084 --> 00:03:31,044
And you, my friend, can have first dibs.

51
00:03:32,004 --> 00:03:34,006
I think I might have a rest after this.

52
00:03:34,590 --> 00:03:38,302
Okay. Well, let me know. Well done, son.

53
00:03:40,929 --> 00:03:43,056
Who is this? Am I going with him?

54
00:03:45,517 --> 00:03:47,644
Maybe you don't know.
You're obviously not in charge.

55
00:03:49,021 --> 00:03:51,440
Miss Standish, I'm here to take you
wherever you want to go.

56
00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:54,193
- [hammer cocks]
- She's not getting out, you're getting in.

57
00:03:54,193 --> 00:03:56,069
[Sturges] What the fuck are you doing?

58
00:03:56,612 --> 00:03:58,322
The operation is over.
This isn't part of--

59
00:03:58,322 --> 00:04:00,782
Hands on your head.

60
00:04:02,117 --> 00:04:03,076
Don't.

61
00:04:04,620 --> 00:04:06,788
Hands on head.

62
00:04:08,207 --> 00:04:10,000
Have you lost your fucking mind?

63
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:11,502
[Sean] Take his gun. Tie him up.

64
00:04:12,044 --> 00:04:13,629
You move over, please.

65
00:04:13,629 --> 00:04:15,672
[grunting]

66
00:04:16,464 --> 00:04:18,634
- [Sean] Stop! [grunts]
- [grunts] No!

67
00:04:35,317 --> 00:04:37,903
- Come on! Fucking come on!
- [engine sputters]

00:04:41,031 --> 00:04:42,699
[Sturges] The fuck are you playing at?

70
00:04:44,368 --> 00:04:46,703
[breathes heavily, chuckles]

71
00:04:49,498 --> 00:04:50,832
Oh, perfect. Brilliant.

72
00:04:50,832 --> 00:04:53,168
- [Sean] Head down.
- All right. Fucking hell.

73
00:04:54,962 --> 00:04:56,171
[Sturges groans]

74
00:04:56,171 --> 00:04:57,339
- [Sean] Yeah?
- [Sturges] Yeah.

75
00:04:57,840 --> 00:05:00,133
So am I now an actual hostage?

76
00:05:01,260 --> 00:05:02,302
[groans]

77
00:05:13,814 --> 00:05:16,817
["Strange Game" playing]

78
00:05:58,942 --> 00:06:02,237
MI5 has become rather stuck in its ways.

79
00:06:02,905 --> 00:06:06,658
So I'll be bringing in advisers from
the private sector who can help

80
00:06:06,658 --> 00:06:11,914
with streamlining and efficiency
so that the taxpayer gets value for money.

81
00:06:12,581 --> 00:06:18,045
I see. And am I to assume
these people will be from Chieftain?

82
00:06:18,629 --> 00:06:20,881
Having just got the better of
your security systems,

83
00:06:20,881 --> 00:06:24,218
I feel that they're more than qualified to
tell you where you might be going wrong.

84
00:06:24,801 --> 00:06:26,553
The CEO is an old friend of yours.

85
00:06:27,429 --> 00:06:29,640
I happened to be at school
with Sly Monteith,

86
00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:31,266
but I was at school with a lot of people.

87
00:06:31,266 --> 00:06:33,977
Do you have
any financial links to the firm?

88
00:06:34,811 --> 00:06:38,565
That's a very impertinent question,
Ingrid, and one I'm unable to answer.

89
00:06:38,565 --> 00:06:41,985
As you know, all my financial assets
have been placed in a blind trust.

90
00:06:43,737 --> 00:06:45,489
If you have any more questions,

91
00:06:45,489 --> 00:06:48,784
I wonder if I should fish
that letter out of the bin

92
00:06:48,784 --> 00:06:50,577
and give Diana Taverner a call.

93
00:06:51,161 --> 00:06:53,580
No, that won't be necessary.

94
00:06:53,580 --> 00:06:57,459

a new phase in our relationship...

[Marcus] Geez,
it's like being out with my kids.

What, you check gambling websites
when you're out with your kids?

104

Mmm.
Looking after their financial security.

Ho told me.

00:07:39,168 --> 00:07:41,420
I'm remortgaging
'cause we're getting the loft done.

108
00:07:42,087 --> 00:07:43,255
Nothing to do with my gambling.

109
00:07:43,255 --> 00:07:45,382
Not that it's any of
your fucking business, by the way.

110
00:07:45,382 --> 00:07:46,842
You're the one that wanted to partner up.

111
00:07:46,842 --> 00:07:48,302
You're hardly selling yourself
as a prospect.

112
00:07:48,302 --> 00:07:50,721

- I never get high on the job.

- Hey, where you going? Why?
- In there.

116

To see what we can learn
about the man that's got Standish.

117
00:08:00,564 --> 00:08:01,690
We don't have a warrant.

118
00:08:01,690 --> 00:08:03,775
We didn't have one for Catherine's flat.

119
00:08:03,775 --> 00:08:06,695
That's different. We knew her, and
technically, we shouldn't have done it.

120
00:08:07,362 --> 00:08:08,739
Stay in the car then.

121
00:08:09,323 --> 00:08:10,324
Shut up.

It was a tiger team.

00:08:52,115 --> 00:08:55,619
They took Standish to pressure
Cartwright to break into the Park.

134
00:08:55,619 --> 00:08:57,663
Shit. Did he do it?

137
00:09:06,922 --> 00:09:09,633
What, so we staked this place out
and broke in for no reason?

138
00:09:10,384 --> 00:09:11,969
Well, at least it got us
out of the office.

I think there's websites for that.

for the tiger team op.

he's gonna keep hold of Standish

<i>till he gets a look at them.</i>

166
00:12:07,060 --> 00:12:09,730
Well, document everything
and get it to Ho. Right?

of Slough House know about this

- [Sean] Yep.

172
00:12:47,142 --> 00:12:48,227
Through there.

173
00:12:54,858 --> 00:12:55,859
Stairs.

174
00:12:58,237 --> 00:13:00,739
There's a similarity
between you and that other man.

175
00:13:00,739 --> 00:13:02,282
- Is that a coincidence?
- Shut up.

176
00:13:02,824 --> 00:13:05,786
Clearly a sore point, which makes me
think it's not a coincidence.

177
00:13:06,286 --> 00:13:07,412
I said, "Shut up."

178
00:13:11,416 --> 00:13:13,418
[Catherine] You didn't have to look
for the light switch,

179
00:13:13,418 --> 00:13:16,380
so this is your house, isn't it?
Your family home.

180
00:13:16,380 --> 00:13:21,301
And that other man must be Ben,
so you're either Sarah or Alison.

181
00:13:27,975 --> 00:13:29,643
- [door lock clicks]
- [sighs]

182
00:13:30,143 --> 00:13:32,062
Stinking pile of dog shit.

183
00:13:33,272 --> 00:13:35,107
- [Sturges groans]
- Smile.

184
00:13:37,484 --> 00:13:38,735
[shutter clicks]

185
00:13:38,735 --> 00:13:40,362
Let's see what Chieftain make of this.

186
00:13:41,655 --> 00:13:43,574
They'll rain blood and fire on you.

187
00:13:43,574 --> 00:13:46,326
Oh, yeah. [sighs] Can't wait. Get in.

188
00:13:49,121 --> 00:13:50,289
[sighs]

189
00:13:50,289 --> 00:13:52,583
Sit tight. Wait it out, and it'll be fine.

190
00:13:55,294 --> 00:13:57,004
How long before Chieftain call?

191
00:13:57,004 --> 00:13:58,088
No idea.

192
00:13:58,088 --> 00:14:00,215
[cell phone ringing]

193
00:14:01,508 --> 00:14:02,718
[Sean breathes deeply]

194
00:14:09,975 --> 00:14:11,977
Now we've got one of yours
and one of MI5's.

195
00:14:12,686 --> 00:14:16,273
If you want them both released unharmed,
you need to do exactly what we say.

196
00:14:16,273 --> 00:14:17,482
Are you listening?

197
00:14:18,483 --> 00:14:19,860
- [cell phone ringing]
- [Diana] Lamb.

198
00:14:19,860 --> 00:14:21,236
[Jackson] <i>Well, you got nerve.</i>

199
00:14:21,236 --> 00:14:25,657
<i>First you turn Slough House into
a sorting office, then you stand me up.</i>

200
00:14:25,657 --> 00:14:29,494
Well, they're doing a total
security reset. It's mayhem down there.

201
00:14:31,788 --> 00:14:33,832
Yeah, I can see that. What's the fallout?

202
00:14:33,832 --> 00:14:38,545
[Diana] <i>Remains to be seen.
Tearney's with Judd as we speak.</i>

203
00:14:38,545 --> 00:14:41,089
Well, what are you doing?
Measuring curtains for her office?

204
00:14:41,089 --> 00:14:46,303
I have learned never to underestimate
Dame Ingrid. She is a survivor.

205
00:14:47,012 --> 00:14:49,973
Yeah, she is,
and Judd may have crowed too soon.

206
00:14:49,973 --> 00:14:53,894
Tiger team's gone rogue.
They won't let Standish go.

207
00:14:54,728 --> 00:14:58,232
Why on earth not?
Surely the operation is completed.

208
00:14:59,149 --> 00:15:03,362
Well, I thought they might have already
been in touch. They want the Grey Books.

209
00:15:03,362 --> 00:15:04,530
They told you that?

210
00:15:05,155 --> 00:15:10,160
<i>No, uh, kidnapper's wall planner.
Name of Sean Donovan.</i>

211
00:15:11,995 --> 00:15:13,413
Well, I haven't heard anything.

212
00:15:14,581 --> 00:15:16,708
And if they were demanding the Grey Books,

213
00:15:16,708 --> 00:15:21,547
I'd know 'cause they've been relocated
to the facility under my supervision.

214
00:15:22,506 --> 00:15:24,967
Uh, yeah, which means
they're one up from toilet paper.

215
00:15:24,967 --> 00:15:27,052
[clears throat]
In return for the heads-up,

216
00:15:27,052 --> 00:15:28,554
<i>I would like Cartwright back.</i>

217
00:15:31,682 --> 00:15:33,183
As I'm sure you're aware,

218
00:15:33,183 --> 00:15:35,686
I do not have command of
the Dogs right now.

219
00:15:36,645 --> 00:15:39,439
Send him out, Diana, or I'm coming in.

220
00:15:41,984 --> 00:15:45,654
[grunts, coughs]

221
00:15:47,406 --> 00:15:48,407
Get up.

222
00:15:50,242 --> 00:15:51,285
Get up!

223
00:15:51,285 --> 00:15:54,204
You know, I'm kinda fine down here,
you know?

224
00:15:54,204 --> 00:15:55,581
- [coughs]
- [chuckles]

225
00:15:56,665 --> 00:15:58,667
I'm not gonna ask you again.
River, get up.

226
00:15:58,667 --> 00:16:00,586
Whatever, uh, issues you have--

227
00:16:00,586 --> 00:16:03,463
That you clearly have,
that you're working through--

228
00:16:04,089 --> 00:16:05,716
Maybe you should just talk to someone.

229
00:16:06,425 --> 00:16:09,970
Because based on this, I just-- I don't
think violence is making you happy.

230
00:16:09,970 --> 00:16:11,930
[groaning]

231
00:16:12,431 --> 00:16:14,516
[grunts, coughs]

232
00:16:14,516 --> 00:16:17,227
Don't know why you're crying, son.
You got nothing between your legs.

233
00:16:17,227 --> 00:16:19,271
[grunts, groaning]

234
00:16:19,813 --> 00:16:23,859
[coughing, sighs]

235
00:16:24,943 --> 00:16:27,362
Yeah, you need to get this
out of your system quickly

236
00:16:27,988 --> 00:16:29,823
before Lamb comes to get me. [groans]

237
00:16:30,324 --> 00:16:32,242
You think I give a fuck about Lamb?

238
00:16:32,242 --> 00:16:33,327
I kinda do, actually. Yeah.

239
00:16:33,327 --> 00:16:38,207
What is he, some sort of twisted fucking
father figure to you, eh?

240
00:16:38,207 --> 00:16:39,958
Because you never knew your own dad,

241
00:16:39,958 --> 00:16:42,878
and you'll never fucking be as good
as your grandfather, eh?

242
00:16:42,878 --> 00:16:44,463
[both breathing heavily]

243
00:16:44,463 --> 00:16:47,216
- You wanna hit me, don't you?
- [breathing heavily]

244
00:16:47,216 --> 00:16:48,800
You want to have a fucking swing at me?

245
00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:51,553
Come on, champ!
Fucking have at it! Come on.

246
00:16:51,553 --> 00:16:54,640
[chuckles, breathing heavily]

247
00:16:56,558 --> 00:16:59,561
Sorry. [breathing deeply]

248
00:17:01,980 --> 00:17:03,690
Attack a senior agent now?

249
00:17:04,942 --> 00:17:07,361
A head Dog. Nah.

250
00:17:08,654 --> 00:17:10,696
No, that would definitely
get me kicked out.

251
00:17:11,448 --> 00:17:15,327
[sucks teeth] So you have at it, champ.

252
00:17:15,327 --> 00:17:16,537
[chuckles]

253
00:17:17,204 --> 00:17:21,208
Because any minute now,
that door is gonna open

254
00:17:22,416 --> 00:17:24,252
and I'm just gonna walk right out of here.

255
00:17:25,378 --> 00:17:27,422
[clears throat, groans]

256
00:17:27,422 --> 00:17:31,343
And until then,
I can take whatever it is you've got.

257
00:17:38,851 --> 00:17:39,977
- Are you feeling what--
- [grunts]

258
00:17:39,977 --> 00:17:43,939
[grunts, coughing]

259
00:17:43,939 --> 00:17:45,524
[wheezing]

260
00:17:53,907 --> 00:17:55,284
[knocking]

261
00:17:55,284 --> 00:17:56,243
[Nick] Come in!

262
00:17:56,243 --> 00:18:01,415
Ah, right. Right on cue.
My ticket out of here.

263
00:18:01,415 --> 00:18:02,708
- [door buzzes]
- [chuckles]

264
00:18:02,708 --> 00:18:04,501
[sniffs, sighs]

265
00:18:05,043 --> 00:18:07,171
[breathing heavily]

266
00:18:07,754 --> 00:18:08,672
Got his bollocks yet?

267
00:18:08,672 --> 00:18:10,883
- Yeah, I've softened him up for ya.
- [Hobbs grunts]

268
00:18:11,466 --> 00:18:12,301
[River coughs]

269
00:18:13,135 --> 00:18:15,053
No, wait, listen-- Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

270
00:18:15,053 --> 00:18:17,222
[wheezes, groans]

271
00:18:17,222 --> 00:18:19,224
Look, I know we've had our differences...

272
00:18:19,224 --> 00:18:20,142
[shushes]

273
00:18:20,142 --> 00:18:23,896
...but I've just gotta warn you,
I do have very tough balls.

274
00:18:24,396 --> 00:18:26,690
And I'm only saying that because you're--

275
00:18:26,690 --> 00:18:28,692
- [Hobbs screaming, grunts]
- [groans]

276
00:18:31,028 --> 00:18:33,238
[Shirley] Okay, let's get this to Ho,
see what he can turn up.

277
00:18:33,238 --> 00:18:35,449
He's just gonna read this
and agree with most of it.

278
00:18:35,991 --> 00:18:37,492
Probably wrote some of it.

279
00:18:38,452 --> 00:18:39,828
- [siren blares]
- [door opens]

280
00:18:39,828 --> 00:18:42,122
- [police officers] Police!
- We're in here.

281
00:18:42,122 --> 00:18:43,373
- [Marcus] Did Lamb send you?
- Whoa.

282
00:18:43,373 --> 00:18:45,834
- [officer 2] Don't know a Lamb.
- [Shirley, Marcus groaning]

283
00:18:45,834 --> 00:18:48,212
Neighbor called.
Said he saw you creeping in.

284
00:18:48,212 --> 00:18:49,755
- Wait. This is a crime scene.
- Idiots.

285
00:18:49,755 --> 00:18:52,257
- [officer 1] Yeah. You done a burglary.
- We're MI5.

286
00:18:52,257 --> 00:18:53,342
Yeah. Check my pockets.

287
00:18:53,342 --> 00:18:55,511
So I can get spiked by a junkie needle?
No, thanks.

288
00:18:55,511 --> 00:18:58,722
Do I look like a junkie?
Look, I've got an MI5 ID in my pocket.

289
00:18:58,722 --> 00:19:00,682
Check it now
before it gets really bad for you.

290
00:19:00,682 --> 00:19:01,767
[scoffs]

291
00:19:02,518 --> 00:19:03,936
[officer 2] Check his. I'll check hers.

292
00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:06,730
- Yeah, or you could make some calls.
- In the back pocket. Right there.

293
00:19:08,273 --> 00:19:09,525
[breathes heavily]

294
00:19:10,108 --> 00:19:11,109
[sighs]

295
00:19:11,693 --> 00:19:14,029
- Okay, boss. Looks legit.
- Mmm.

296
00:19:14,029 --> 00:19:16,907
[clicks tongue] What's this then?

297
00:19:17,783 --> 00:19:19,159
Got to be fucking kidding me.

298
00:19:19,159 --> 00:19:20,869
- I'm undercover. I've got it for a sting.
- Uh-huh.

299
00:19:21,912 --> 00:19:24,623
- [Shirley, Marcus groaning]
- [handcuffs clinking]

300
00:19:24,623 --> 00:19:27,709
- [radio chatter]
- [cell phone buzzing]

301
00:19:39,012 --> 00:19:40,347
[police officer 2] <i>Jackson Lamb?</i>

302
00:19:41,181 --> 00:19:44,351
- Maybe.
- <i>This is Officer Moseley of the Met.</i>

303
00:19:44,351 --> 00:19:48,272
I'm calling 'cause I've arrested
Marcus Longridge and Shirley Dander

304
00:19:48,814 --> 00:19:52,568
for breaking and entering,
and possession of class-A drugs.

305
00:19:54,278 --> 00:19:55,112
Uh-huh.

306
00:19:55,112 --> 00:19:58,365
Longridge says he had the go-ahead
from you to enter the flat,

307
00:19:58,365 --> 00:20:01,451
and Dander says, uh,
the drugs were for a sting.

308
00:20:01,451 --> 00:20:07,207
[sighs] All right, you can let 'em go
and then give 'em a message.

309
00:20:07,207 --> 00:20:08,584
Yeah, go ahead.

310
00:20:08,584 --> 00:20:09,668
[sighs]

311
00:20:11,211 --> 00:20:13,213
Yeah. Uh-huh.

312
00:20:17,426 --> 00:20:19,428
[sighs]

313
00:20:21,346 --> 00:20:23,265
Sorry about that. You're free to go.

314
00:20:23,265 --> 00:20:25,350
No hard feelings. Just doing your job.

315
00:20:31,106 --> 00:20:33,108
[groaning]

316
00:20:35,110 --> 00:20:37,112
[groans, sighs]

317
00:20:37,112 --> 00:20:38,113
Flush it.

318
00:20:38,113 --> 00:20:39,740
[officer 1]
You don't need it for your sting?

319
00:20:40,365 --> 00:20:42,367
[sucks teeth] Flush it.

320
00:20:47,164 --> 00:20:50,125
Oh, uh, before you go,
Lamb had a message for you.

321
00:20:51,460 --> 00:20:52,961
"You're fucking fired.

322
00:20:52,961 --> 00:20:55,589
I got fucking hemorrhoids
that are more fucking use than you."

323
00:21:05,599 --> 00:21:06,600
[turnstile clanks]

324
00:21:09,811 --> 00:21:10,812
[turnstile beeps]

325
00:21:16,318 --> 00:21:17,319
[door beeps]

326
00:21:26,703 --> 00:21:27,538
[clears throat]

327
00:21:35,587 --> 00:21:37,548
- [Jackson chuckles]
- Got some rubbish for you.

328
00:21:37,548 --> 00:21:38,757
[Jackson coughs]

329
00:21:38,757 --> 00:21:39,883
What kept you?

330
00:21:39,883 --> 00:21:43,053
Thanks for giving him a good kicking.
Saves me the bother.

331
00:21:43,053 --> 00:21:44,096
[River groans]

332
00:21:44,096 --> 00:21:48,350
You're gonna bring me that diamond
and the name of the idiot fucking horse

333
00:21:48,350 --> 00:21:50,352
that took it,
or I'm gonna come over there,

334
00:21:50,352 --> 00:21:53,647
and I'm gonna open you up
like a tin of beans. Do you hear me?

335
00:21:56,191 --> 00:21:59,027
[stammers] I'm trying to place you. You--

336
00:22:00,445 --> 00:22:04,199
[scoffs] You're the bloke that walks
around our local park picking up dog shit.

337
00:22:05,909 --> 00:22:07,119
We danced once.

338
00:22:08,161 --> 00:22:09,663
Next time I'll put you down.

339
00:22:10,163 --> 00:22:11,164
Dream on, sir.

340
00:22:12,082 --> 00:22:13,876
I could take you down with an eyelash.

341
00:22:14,585 --> 00:22:15,586
[sighs]

342
00:22:19,256 --> 00:22:21,008
[River] Right. Before you say anything,

343
00:22:21,008 --> 00:22:23,427
what would you have done
if you'd been sent that?

344
00:22:24,136 --> 00:22:26,388
Well, I'd done what they said.
Then once they let her go,

345
00:22:26,388 --> 00:22:28,307
I'd have killed every one of the bastards.

346
00:22:28,932 --> 00:22:31,393
- [driver] Yes, mate?
- Uh, Chelsea, please, mate.

347
00:22:31,393 --> 00:22:33,520
If they threatened to kill you,
on the other hand,

348
00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:35,564
I'd buy 'em a beer and the bullets.

349
00:22:36,732 --> 00:22:37,900
[both sighs]

350
00:22:37,900 --> 00:22:39,318
Eh, hang on a minute, mate.

351
00:22:39,318 --> 00:22:40,402
[River sighs]

352
00:22:40,402 --> 00:22:43,155
Wait, what are you doing?
Come on, out you get.

353
00:22:43,822 --> 00:22:45,532
Why? Where are you going?

354
00:22:46,491 --> 00:22:48,535
Chelsea. Did you not hear me?

355
00:22:50,120 --> 00:22:51,580
- Where am I going?
- [sighs]

356
00:22:52,122 --> 00:22:53,916
Go meet Louisa at Chieftain.

357
00:22:54,416 --> 00:22:57,211
They're the twats behind all of this.
She'll fill you in.

358
00:22:57,211 --> 00:23:02,382
But the headline is they hired a team with
a hidden agenda, still holding Standish.

359
00:23:02,382 --> 00:23:05,802
[sighing]

360
00:23:10,682 --> 00:23:12,476
Is it not on the way?
Can I not just come with you?

361
00:23:13,393 --> 00:23:14,561
Yes...

362
00:23:15,646 --> 00:23:16,897
and no.

363
00:23:16,897 --> 00:23:18,023
[grunts]

364
00:23:19,399 --> 00:23:20,776
[sighs, groans]

365
00:23:21,902 --> 00:23:22,903
[groans]

366
00:23:54,268 --> 00:23:55,269
Ma'am.

367
00:23:58,313 --> 00:24:00,274
- Afternoon, ma'am.
- I need to address the hub.

368
00:24:01,024 --> 00:24:03,110
[agent] It seems Cartwright
got out through the car park.

369
00:24:03,694 --> 00:24:04,528
Yeah.

370
00:24:04,528 --> 00:24:06,822
So, I thought we could start
an interim report, ma'am.

371
00:24:07,364 --> 00:24:08,657
[Ingrid] Yeah.

372
00:24:08,657 --> 00:24:10,492
I paused comms for your address.

373
00:24:10,492 --> 00:24:12,619
[chattering]

374
00:24:15,122 --> 00:24:18,250
As many of you are aware,
there was an incursion this morning.

375
00:24:19,543 --> 00:24:23,130
An uncleared agent acquired access
to a restricted area.

376
00:24:23,130 --> 00:24:27,593
This was part of an exercise that neither
I nor anyone else in MI5 was aware of.

377
00:24:27,593 --> 00:24:29,178
An exercise we failed.

378
00:24:30,262 --> 00:24:34,641
Pending this, there will be a full review
of security systems.

379
00:24:34,641 --> 00:24:35,726
Back to work.

380
00:24:44,776 --> 00:24:47,029
[Diana] You're still here. Well done.

381
00:24:47,029 --> 00:24:48,113
Do you mean that?

382
00:24:49,198 --> 00:24:50,782
We've had our differences, Ingrid,

383
00:24:50,782 --> 00:24:54,036
but I would hate to see you forced out
by someone like Judd.

384
00:24:54,036 --> 00:24:57,289
My ultimate loyalty lies
with you and the Service.

385
00:24:58,332 --> 00:25:00,334
I can't believe I'm saying that out loud.

386
00:25:01,293 --> 00:25:05,506
[sighs]
Well, I'm not sure how long I'll last.

387
00:25:06,340 --> 00:25:09,968
Given he now has this failure to use
to push me around.

388
00:25:11,678 --> 00:25:13,305
- What does he want?
- [sighs]

389
00:25:14,556 --> 00:25:16,266
To bring in the private sector.

390
00:25:17,017 --> 00:25:18,268
Specifically Chieftain.

391
00:25:18,268 --> 00:25:20,562
Oh, he'll never get that through. Not now.

392
00:25:21,146 --> 00:25:22,314
There's been a holdup.

393
00:25:22,981 --> 00:25:25,275
Lamb says the tiger team have
their own agenda.

394
00:25:25,859 --> 00:25:27,736
Have they made contact
with him over Standish?

395
00:25:27,736 --> 00:25:29,738
No, he found a flat with their prep.

396
00:25:29,738 --> 00:25:31,573
Apparently they want to see
the Grey Books.

397
00:25:32,074 --> 00:25:33,492
Well, that's never gonna happen.

398
00:25:34,451 --> 00:25:36,370
Have you heard anything from Chieftain
about any of this?

399
00:25:36,370 --> 00:25:39,665
Not a peep. Do you want me to ask?

400
00:25:39,665 --> 00:25:40,749
No.

401
00:25:42,334 --> 00:25:44,169
If there's any mess, it's theirs.

402
00:25:44,753 --> 00:25:46,296
They can clean it up.

403
00:25:47,381 --> 00:25:48,590
That's what I thought.

404
00:25:54,596 --> 00:25:57,558
Thank you, Diana. We have to limit
the collateral damage here.

405
00:25:58,767 --> 00:26:01,436
Oh. Poor Standish.

406
00:26:01,436 --> 00:26:05,774
I wasn't meaning her,
I was talking about us. But yes.

407
00:26:07,109 --> 00:26:09,820
Hopefully she'll come through unscathed.

408
00:26:19,454 --> 00:26:20,706
[chauffeur] Good afternoon, sir.

409
00:26:25,294 --> 00:26:26,587
Afternoon, Sly.

410
00:26:26,587 --> 00:26:27,713
[grunts]

411
00:26:29,047 --> 00:26:30,299
[sighs]

412
00:26:30,299 --> 00:26:33,635
Fuck me.
This is bigger than my flat. [sniffs]

413
00:26:33,635 --> 00:26:35,220
Do you mind if I smoke?

414
00:26:36,388 --> 00:26:38,056
- Yes.
- [sighs]

415
00:26:38,056 --> 00:26:41,226
So, Sly.

416
00:26:42,686 --> 00:26:46,273
Now, that is a-- that's a terrible name.
What's it short for? Slime?

417
00:26:46,273 --> 00:26:47,733
[Sly] I don't know who you are,

418
00:26:47,733 --> 00:26:49,985
but you should know
that I own a private security firm,

419
00:26:49,985 --> 00:26:52,446
which means I have some
very dangerous people in my pay.

420
00:26:52,446 --> 00:26:55,282
Yeah. Too fucking right
they're dangerous. [sniffs]

421
00:26:55,282 --> 00:26:58,827
That Sean Donovan, one of your
tiger team, is an absolute fruit basket.

422
00:27:00,078 --> 00:27:01,622
Catherine Standish.

423
00:27:01,622 --> 00:27:04,583
One of my team, in case
you're wondering why I give a shit.

424
00:27:04,583 --> 00:27:05,667
I see.

425
00:27:05,667 --> 00:27:07,753
No, I don't think you do.

426
00:27:07,753 --> 00:27:10,339
[clears throat] Donovan's gone rogue.

427
00:27:10,964 --> 00:27:13,717
Won't let Standish go
until he's had a look at the Grey Books.

428
00:27:13,717 --> 00:27:15,761
Standish should have been released
hours ago.

429
00:27:16,345 --> 00:27:17,513
Oh, well, it hasn't happened.

430
00:27:17,513 --> 00:27:19,306
And what the fuck are the Grey Books?

431
00:27:20,766 --> 00:27:24,686
The Grey Books examine every
conspiracy theory from the last 100 years.

432
00:27:24,686 --> 00:27:28,065
And, uh, you know, surprise, surprise,
decide that they're all bollocks.

433
00:27:28,065 --> 00:27:31,360
But there are some nut cases out there
who think the Grey Books will prove that

434
00:27:31,360 --> 00:27:36,114
Elvis shot JFK,
and Hitler built the pyramids.

435
00:27:36,740 --> 00:27:38,575
I don't know anything about this.

436
00:27:38,575 --> 00:27:41,411
Jesus Christ. This is a fucking disaster.

437
00:27:41,411 --> 00:27:45,040
Yeah, ain't it just.
That's why I thought I'd pay you a visit.

438
00:27:45,040 --> 00:27:47,918
[inhales deeply]
And nothing's happening, you see.

439
00:27:47,918 --> 00:27:52,005
No Standish,
no request for the Grey Books.

440
00:27:52,005 --> 00:27:54,383
[scoffs] Nothing. [stammers]

441
00:27:54,383 --> 00:27:55,926
I need it all unblocked.

442
00:27:56,593 --> 00:27:57,803
Yeah, speaking of which--

443
00:27:57,803 --> 00:27:59,763
- [farts]
- Ooh.

444
00:27:59,763 --> 00:28:01,682
[sniffs] Anyway...

445
00:28:01,682 --> 00:28:04,768
[exhales sharply, sniffs] ...get it sorted.

446
00:28:05,936 --> 00:28:08,480
I imagine neither of us wanna see
the other again.

447
00:28:10,190 --> 00:28:15,070
Fucking hell. Oh, God,
I hope that don't go into the groundwater.

448
00:28:15,070 --> 00:28:17,072
Here, you wanna keep that? Mask the smell?

449
00:28:17,573 --> 00:28:19,449
- No.
- [grunts]

450
00:28:20,033 --> 00:28:21,410
I advise you to leave quickly.

451
00:28:21,410 --> 00:28:24,496
[scoffs]
I'd advise you to leave the windows open.

452
00:28:34,923 --> 00:28:36,008
[River clears throat]

453
00:28:36,008 --> 00:28:38,093
What the hell happened to you?

454
00:28:38,802 --> 00:28:42,764
Oh, just Duffy.

455
00:28:43,432 --> 00:28:44,892
[sniffs] Then Hobbs.

456
00:28:45,559 --> 00:28:46,935
What? Did they beat you up?

457
00:28:48,604 --> 00:28:49,730
Yes, obviously.

458
00:28:50,314 --> 00:28:51,982
- Wow.
- [River] So why are we here then?

459
00:28:52,858 --> 00:28:54,943
Lamb wants us to get Chieftain's file
on the op,

460
00:28:54,943 --> 00:28:56,945
background on Donovan and the team.

461
00:28:56,945 --> 00:28:59,239
Seems that they have their own agenda.

462
00:28:59,990 --> 00:29:02,534
- Are they gonna give that to us?
- Yeah, they are. We're MI5.

463
00:29:02,534 --> 00:29:03,869
Who the fuck are they?

464
00:29:04,369 --> 00:29:07,831
A multimillion-pound security firm
with connections to the Home Secretary.

465
00:29:08,498 --> 00:29:11,710
Well, I don't give a shit.
Bankrupting myself having four coffees,

466
00:29:11,710 --> 00:29:16,006
hanging out here watching these cocks
swan in and out. So, come on.

467
00:29:17,716 --> 00:29:18,759
[groans]

468
00:29:22,429 --> 00:29:23,931
[Webb] Hey, listen, fuckers.

469
00:29:23,931 --> 00:29:27,142
Yeah, you've kept me waiting there
for hours, and I want answers.

470
00:29:27,768 --> 00:29:30,562
You people-- You can't put me
through the wringer like that, yeah,

471
00:29:30,562 --> 00:29:33,148
and expect it to be all smoothed over
with a fucking phone call.

472
00:29:33,148 --> 00:29:36,485
I want money. I want moola, moola.
You understand? I don't-- [stammers]

473
00:29:36,485 --> 00:29:38,028
- I know, actually--
- Hey! Whoa, whoa, whoa.

474
00:29:38,028 --> 00:29:40,155
- What are you doing here?
- Oh, my God. River.

475
00:29:40,155 --> 00:29:42,199
[scoffs] And the lovely Louisa.

476
00:29:42,199 --> 00:29:43,408
Go fuck yourself.

477
00:29:44,159 --> 00:29:46,328
Need to speak to whoever's
in charge of this morning's op.

478
00:29:46,328 --> 00:29:48,455
- I'll see if they're free.
- [Webb] Oh, what? Okay. What?

479
00:29:48,455 --> 00:29:51,750
So you jump when MI5 ask,
but Joe Public can go whistle, can he?

480
00:29:51,750 --> 00:29:52,918
- Fuck's sake.
- Shut up.

481
00:29:53,752 --> 00:29:54,795
- [Webb sighs]
- Listen.

482
00:29:55,546 --> 00:29:58,715
- So, you-- you know it was a tiger team?
- [Webb sighs]

483
00:29:58,715 --> 00:30:01,385
I do now, yeah. I didn't when
I was standing on that bridge

484
00:30:01,385 --> 00:30:03,262
with a fucking sniper sight on my chest.

485
00:30:03,262 --> 00:30:06,014
These people-- They've been--
They've been paid a fortune for this op.

486
00:30:06,014 --> 00:30:08,183
And after what I've been through,
I want a taste.

487
00:30:08,183 --> 00:30:10,269
- [scoffs]
- You should get some too.

488
00:30:10,978 --> 00:30:13,564
Hey, do you wanna go in together?
Whatever they offer we ask for triple.

489
00:30:13,564 --> 00:30:15,190
No, I'm fine, mate.

490
00:30:15,190 --> 00:30:16,483
- Hey.
- I'm here to do a job.

491
00:30:16,483 --> 00:30:19,278
- Hey, I know we've had our history, right?
- [scoffs]

492
00:30:19,278 --> 00:30:21,655
But for once we're on the same side.
We both got played.

493
00:30:21,655 --> 00:30:23,073
You always get played, Spider.

494
00:30:23,073 --> 00:30:24,199
There's a good point.

495
00:30:24,741 --> 00:30:25,993
Did you get the file?

496
00:30:26,618 --> 00:30:28,579
- [phone ringing]
- No. But I coulda done.

497
00:30:28,579 --> 00:30:30,330
- Lamb pulled me out.
- [Webb] Oh.

498
00:30:31,915 --> 00:30:33,375
[River]
How's your sister then? Is she okay?

499
00:30:33,375 --> 00:30:35,919
[Webb sighs] Oh, she's fine, mate.
Standish okay?

500
00:30:37,713 --> 00:30:39,882
Well, there's been a bit of a holdup.

501
00:30:39,882 --> 00:30:43,510
But of course, um, can't go into that
because you're not in the Service anymore.

502
00:30:43,510 --> 00:30:46,180
- [Webb chuckles] That's told me.
- So. Yeah.

503
00:30:47,097 --> 00:30:48,140
[Webb sighs]

504
00:30:48,140 --> 00:30:49,725
Talking of which, um--

505
00:30:51,018 --> 00:30:54,062
I know we, um--
we never had a chance to chat after

506
00:30:54,062 --> 00:30:55,939
- that whole disaster with the Russians.
- No, save it.

507
00:30:55,939 --> 00:30:58,066
- No, no, no, this is long overdue, and I--
- [clears throat]

508
00:30:59,526 --> 00:31:02,863
I feel terrible that I didn't reach out
and say this earlier.

509
00:31:02,863 --> 00:31:03,989
But...

510
00:31:05,490 --> 00:31:06,575
I forgive you.

511
00:31:06,575 --> 00:31:07,951
[River clears throat]

512
00:31:08,619 --> 00:31:09,995
- Excuse me?
- I got shot

513
00:31:09,995 --> 00:31:13,081
while you were running security,
but I forgive you.

514
00:31:16,960 --> 00:31:18,086
Okay. Okay.

515
00:31:18,086 --> 00:31:20,631
- He's not worth it, is he?
- [receptionist] You can go through now.

516
00:31:20,631 --> 00:31:23,842
The Command and Control Executive Officer
is ready to speak to you.

517
00:31:23,842 --> 00:31:25,594
God, that's a twat-y title.

518
00:31:26,762 --> 00:31:28,972
- That's the private sector for you.
- If you'd like to follow me.

519
00:31:30,390 --> 00:31:32,601
Uh, Mr. Webb,
you can come through now as well.

520
00:31:37,439 --> 00:31:39,066
So you were a while in hospital then?

521
00:31:40,192 --> 00:31:41,360
Couple of months. [sighs]

522
00:31:43,237 --> 00:31:44,446
Lucky for some.

523
00:31:46,573 --> 00:31:48,242
I'm truly sorry for your loss.

524
00:31:50,077 --> 00:31:52,329
I heard you quit
before they could fire you.

525
00:31:52,329 --> 00:31:55,999
Not quite in that order.
They gave me the option.

526
00:31:56,500 --> 00:31:59,211
Slough House or leave the Service.
So I left.

527
00:32:02,005 --> 00:32:04,424
- No offense.
- Literally none taken.

528
00:32:05,300 --> 00:32:07,678
- [elevator bell dings]
- [doors open]

529
00:32:09,346 --> 00:32:11,181
[people chattering]

530
00:32:13,183 --> 00:32:14,184
[River sighs]

531
00:32:16,478 --> 00:32:18,188
So where are you working now then?

532
00:32:18,188 --> 00:32:20,774
Well... [sighs]

533
00:32:21,859 --> 00:32:22,860
...here.

534
00:32:23,735 --> 00:32:28,448
Say hello to your Command
and Control Executive Officer.

535
00:32:28,448 --> 00:32:30,868
- [chuckles]
- [cheering]

536
00:32:38,959 --> 00:32:42,337
[chuckling]

537
00:32:43,380 --> 00:32:46,425
You fucking-- Fuck off.

538
00:32:46,425 --> 00:32:47,634
I weren't lying.

539
00:32:47,634 --> 00:32:51,138
I am here for compensation.
A big, fat fucking bonus.

540
00:32:51,138 --> 00:32:53,056
[people cheering]

541
00:32:53,932 --> 00:32:56,560
[chuckles]

542
00:32:56,560 --> 00:32:58,562
I should split it with ya, but I won't.

543
00:32:58,562 --> 00:33:00,272
How'd you know we were coming?

544
00:33:00,272 --> 00:33:02,774
Didn't.
Saw you outside staking the place out,

545
00:33:02,774 --> 00:33:06,195
told everyone to play along
if you came in and you did...

546
00:33:06,195 --> 00:33:08,614
[inhales sharply]
...with Cart-wrong. [chuckles]

547
00:33:08,614 --> 00:33:11,700
- The gods are smiling on me today.
- Oh, my God, you're so pathetic.

548
00:33:11,700 --> 00:33:12,618
- Am I?
- Yeah.

549
00:33:12,618 --> 00:33:17,122
With my six-figure private sector salary,
company car, and massive penis.

550
00:33:17,122 --> 00:33:18,582
[people laughing]

551
00:33:18,582 --> 00:33:23,545
Thank you, River.
Thank you. You were magnificent.

552
00:33:23,545 --> 00:33:25,839
Judd wanted Chieftain to run
a tiger team on the Park.

553
00:33:25,839 --> 00:33:27,633
They reached out to me as an ex-employee

554
00:33:27,633 --> 00:33:31,887
and set me the task of selecting
the biggest sucker on the books.

555
00:33:31,887 --> 00:33:34,264
I got to say, it didn't take long.

556
00:33:34,264 --> 00:33:36,183
- R to the I to the V-E-R.
- [laughing]

557
00:33:36,183 --> 00:33:37,351
God, you know what?

558
00:33:37,351 --> 00:33:40,187
I almost feel guilty about accepting
that huge consultancy fee

559
00:33:40,187 --> 00:33:42,064
for literally a minute's work.

560
00:33:42,064 --> 00:33:44,942
I knew you'd take the bait again.

561
00:33:44,942 --> 00:33:49,029
Tear off and try and be a hero.
[blows, breathes shakily]

562
00:33:49,029 --> 00:33:52,074
River, please believe me.
Please believe me.

563
00:33:52,074 --> 00:33:55,494
They're gonna kill my sister
and her-- her-- her kids. [mock crying]

564
00:33:55,494 --> 00:33:58,539
[chuckling] Rafer, you fucker.
Come here, mate. Come here.

565
00:33:59,122 --> 00:34:00,207
- [chuckles]
- Oh, mate.

566
00:34:00,207 --> 00:34:04,169
[laughing] Rafer was the sniper.
Show 'em your rifle.

567
00:34:04,169 --> 00:34:06,839
- [imitating gunshots, groans]
- [imitating gunshots]

568
00:34:06,839 --> 00:34:08,715
- [laughing] Nice one, mate.
- [laughing]

569
00:34:08,715 --> 00:34:10,509
[chuckles] Oh, God.

570
00:34:11,134 --> 00:34:13,219
You don't even have a sister, do you?

571
00:34:13,219 --> 00:34:17,431
No, I do. But we haven't spoken
in years. She's a total bitch.

572
00:34:17,431 --> 00:34:19,685
Are you gonna give us your files
on Donovan and the team?

573
00:34:19,685 --> 00:34:22,603
[inhales sharply, blows]

574
00:34:22,603 --> 00:34:24,857
Nah. You can kiss my unwashed anus.

575
00:34:24,857 --> 00:34:27,234
Je-- They're not letting her go, Spider.

576
00:34:27,234 --> 00:34:28,777
All under control.

577
00:34:28,777 --> 00:34:30,487
Now, if you'll excuse me,

578
00:34:30,487 --> 00:34:33,866
the boss and I have a lunch with the...
[clears throat] ...Home Secretary.

579
00:34:34,449 --> 00:34:39,580
I'm gonna be part of an advisory committee
on improving MI5's efficiency.

580
00:34:39,580 --> 00:34:42,416
Do you wanna know my first recommendation?
It's a good one.

581
00:34:43,917 --> 00:34:45,293
Shut down Slough House.

582
00:34:45,293 --> 00:34:48,005
[chuckles] I'm gonna fucking break
your neck you f--

583
00:34:48,005 --> 00:34:49,797
- [clamoring]
- [Louisa] All right. Let's go.

584
00:34:49,797 --> 00:34:51,717
[chuckles] You should be thanking me.

585
00:34:51,717 --> 00:34:54,969
You don't want to be there, River, mate.
Time to move on to your true calling.

586
00:34:54,969 --> 00:34:57,306
Shoving fruit up your arse on OnlyFans.

587
00:34:57,306 --> 00:34:59,349
[people chuckling]

588
00:34:59,349 --> 00:35:01,268
If you ever want a job, Guy,
just drop me a line.

589
00:35:01,268 --> 00:35:03,812
You'll at least get an interview.
Microphone drop.

590
00:35:04,855 --> 00:35:06,064
It's mic drop you--

591
00:35:06,064 --> 00:35:07,733
- [people laughing, cheering]
- [exclaims]

592
00:35:09,610 --> 00:35:13,363
Yeah! Ah, yes, mate. Love it.

593
00:35:13,363 --> 00:35:15,490
- [River] Fucking Spider.
- Fucking you.

594
00:35:16,491 --> 00:35:18,410
- [River] What?
- It was Spider, again.

595
00:35:18,410 --> 00:35:20,495
- You should have known.
- What do you mean I should've known?

596
00:35:20,495 --> 00:35:22,414
- So fucking humiliating.
- How did--

597
00:35:23,707 --> 00:35:24,958
[Webb] Literally the number of times

598
00:35:24,958 --> 00:35:27,753
I wanted to punch him in the face
and that-- It was just better.

599
00:35:27,753 --> 00:35:30,923
It was better than a punch in the face.
It was better than a dart in the face.

600
00:35:30,923 --> 00:35:35,219
Do you know what I'm saying? Oh,
you just missed Cartwright. It was butane.

601
00:35:58,659 --> 00:36:00,994
I have just been threatened
by a Jackson fucking Lamb

602
00:36:00,994 --> 00:36:02,829
because Standish is still being held.

603
00:36:05,916 --> 00:36:08,126
- Oh, that?
- What do you mean, "Oh, that"?

604
00:36:08,794 --> 00:36:10,712
You told me it had
all gone like clockwork.

605
00:36:10,712 --> 00:36:12,297
It has and it will.

606
00:36:13,006 --> 00:36:15,384
Nothing is gonna happen to Standish...
[inhales sharply]

607
00:36:15,384 --> 00:36:16,718
...or our guy that they're holding.

608
00:36:17,678 --> 00:36:18,679
What guy?

609
00:36:20,347 --> 00:36:23,809
Jesus. This gets worse and worse.
Tell me where we're at. No bullshit.

610
00:36:23,809 --> 00:36:25,185
[chuckles] It's actually quite--

611
00:36:25,185 --> 00:36:30,148
Anyway, they demanded a meet with me,
due to begin shortly,

612
00:36:30,148 --> 00:36:33,235
from where I will escort them
to have a look at something

613
00:36:33,235 --> 00:36:36,613
- called the Grey Books.
- Yes. Lamb told me about the Grey Books.

614
00:36:37,239 --> 00:36:38,365
How does Lamb know?

615
00:36:39,032 --> 00:36:41,076
Oh, God knows.
He seems to know everything.

616
00:36:42,327 --> 00:36:43,579
What are you going to do?

617
00:36:44,621 --> 00:36:46,915
Well, not show, obviously.

618
00:36:48,375 --> 00:36:53,338
[chuckles] They have two fucking hostages,
and you propose to stand them up?

619
00:36:53,338 --> 00:36:56,175
There is no way MI5 are gonna
open up the Grey Books for them.

620
00:36:56,175 --> 00:36:58,427
And they're not
actually gonna kill anyone.

621
00:36:58,427 --> 00:37:01,430
They'll realize they're making twats
of themselves and release her soon enough.

622
00:37:01,430 --> 00:37:03,432
You're going to the meet.
I want this sorted.

623
00:37:04,141 --> 00:37:05,851
We have our lunch with Judd.

624
00:37:05,851 --> 00:37:08,228
No. [chuckles] I have a lunch with Judd.

625
00:37:09,229 --> 00:37:12,149
You're not going unless our guy
and Standish are both released.

626
00:37:12,149 --> 00:37:14,276
[scoffs] How am I supposed to do that?

627
00:37:14,276 --> 00:37:17,696
You're ex-MI5.
Pull some strings or pay them off.

628
00:37:17,696 --> 00:37:21,325
- Uh, w-- with what?
- Your fucking fee. I don't give a shit.

629
00:37:27,915 --> 00:37:29,917
Donovan really believes some of this shit.

630
00:37:31,793 --> 00:37:33,921
- As do I, by the way. [chuckles]
- [typing]

631
00:37:33,921 --> 00:37:36,340
There's no way we've been to the Moon.
[scoffs]

632
00:37:38,175 --> 00:37:41,678
He posts on conspiracy sites
under a handle, obviously.

633
00:37:42,596 --> 00:37:44,431
I might have even interacted with him.

634
00:37:47,392 --> 00:37:51,188
Where would a twat
like Peter Judd have lunch?

635
00:37:54,107 --> 00:37:55,984
[typing]

636
00:37:59,571 --> 00:38:01,114
[tires squeal]

637
00:38:03,367 --> 00:38:05,369
[tires squealing]

638
00:38:15,963 --> 00:38:17,464
[tires squealing]

639
00:38:29,852 --> 00:38:30,853
[Webb sighs]

640
00:38:34,147 --> 00:38:35,148
What's that?

641
00:38:35,649 --> 00:38:38,402
That's my beautiful bonus,
which I'm giving you.

642
00:38:39,486 --> 00:38:40,487
It's not about money.

643
00:38:40,487 --> 00:38:42,865
Oh, fuck off. It's always about money.

644
00:38:44,700 --> 00:38:47,953
By the way, did you bribe Taverner
to ring me with that reference?

645
00:38:48,662 --> 00:38:51,248
She got me the job at Chieftain.
Christ knows why she wanted you.

646
00:38:51,248 --> 00:38:53,876
- I want to see the Grey Books.
- Not gonna happen.

647
00:38:55,836 --> 00:38:58,797
- Then we have a problem.
- Okay. I've tried the carrot.

648
00:38:58,797 --> 00:39:01,466
- Do you want me to get out the stick?
- I'm the one with the stick.

649
00:39:01,967 --> 00:39:05,179
We have two hostages. If you wanna see
them again, you know what you have to do.

650
00:39:05,179 --> 00:39:07,055
Sorry. Can we just cut the bullshit, okay?

651
00:39:07,055 --> 00:39:09,433
They're not hostages,
and you're not gonna do anything to them.

652
00:39:09,933 --> 00:39:12,603
It's just a game, mate.
A big fucking stupid game.

653
00:39:12,603 --> 00:39:16,231
Now, I don't know why you're doing this,
and I don't care, but I want it to stop.

654
00:39:18,692 --> 00:39:21,528
Don't walk away from me, dickhead. Stop.

655
00:39:22,696 --> 00:39:24,740
I command you to stop.

656
00:39:27,868 --> 00:39:30,579
[sighs] I'm late for a lunch
at Anna Livia's with the Home Secretary.

657
00:39:30,579 --> 00:39:32,539
I can't show my face
until Standish is released.

658
00:39:32,539 --> 00:39:34,750
Now stop fucking around
and tell me where she is.

659
00:39:37,211 --> 00:39:38,462
Go to your lunch.

660
00:39:39,755 --> 00:39:41,298
Enjoy your hors d'oeuvres.

661
00:39:42,007 --> 00:39:44,927
But don't play the big man,
you slick twat.

662
00:39:46,136 --> 00:39:49,473
I'm not gonna take lessons on being a man
from someone who couldn't hold it together

663
00:39:49,473 --> 00:39:51,808
when their secret fuck buddy
killed herself.

664
00:39:51,808 --> 00:39:54,728
Yeah, I read your file, twat.

665
00:39:56,230 --> 00:39:57,439
Now listen to me. I--

666
00:39:57,439 --> 00:39:59,107
[shouts, grunts]

667
00:40:01,026 --> 00:40:02,486
And I'd advise you to stay down.

668
00:40:06,949 --> 00:40:07,950
Hey.

669
00:40:11,912 --> 00:40:12,913
[sighs]

670
00:40:16,917 --> 00:40:17,751
Hey.

671
00:40:18,335 --> 00:40:20,420
[Sly]
You sure it makes sense to keep Tearney?

672
00:40:20,420 --> 00:40:22,339
[Peter] Well, for the time being.

673
00:40:22,339 --> 00:40:26,093
We need to make sure the cultural changes
you propose are bedded in enough

674
00:40:26,093 --> 00:40:28,387
that her successor cannot reverse them.

675
00:40:29,054 --> 00:40:31,390
Your guest, Mr. Webb, is here.

676
00:40:31,390 --> 00:40:32,933
[Peter] Mmm. Send him over.

677
00:40:33,475 --> 00:40:35,644
I reminded him
the dress code is smart-casual,

678
00:40:35,644 --> 00:40:37,896
but he was quite curt and dismissive.

679
00:40:38,397 --> 00:40:42,150
I will allow it because he's your guest,
but if you could have a word...

680
00:40:46,321 --> 00:40:47,906
What the fuck are you doing here?

681
00:40:47,906 --> 00:40:50,534
I have to keep going higher up
to get this sorted out.

682
00:40:50,534 --> 00:40:53,620
Fuck me. Every ponce and his brother.

683
00:40:54,746 --> 00:40:57,249
I thought the tiger team operation
was successfully concluded.

684
00:40:57,833 --> 00:41:00,752
It is. Small hiccup.
Webb is dealing with it.

685
00:41:00,752 --> 00:41:03,297
[sighs]
Well, once you've delivered her back,

686
00:41:03,297 --> 00:41:05,048
I'll leave you be. Give us a chip.

687
00:41:06,300 --> 00:41:08,510
I'm not sure we've ever properly met.

688
00:41:09,761 --> 00:41:12,431
Yeah, well... [chewing]
...it feels like we have.

689
00:41:13,432 --> 00:41:16,059
I've met plenty of your sort before.
[grunts]

690
00:41:16,059 --> 00:41:17,936
If you've come to tell me
what you think of me,

691
00:41:17,936 --> 00:41:20,230
I should warn you,
I have an incredibly thick skin.

692
00:41:20,230 --> 00:41:23,567
So your barbs might not wound
as much as you hope.

693
00:41:24,067 --> 00:41:27,738
Oh, I'm sorry to disappoint.
I don't think of you at all.

694
00:41:27,738 --> 00:41:28,947
[chuckles]

695
00:41:32,576 --> 00:41:34,411
Christ, that's good. [sniffs]

696
00:41:34,912 --> 00:41:36,038
How much does that cost?

697
00:41:36,038 --> 00:41:38,040
More than your monthly salary.

698
00:41:38,624 --> 00:41:41,502
What do you want? Other than Standish.

699
00:41:41,502 --> 00:41:43,921
I just wanna be left alone.
[inhales sharply]

700
00:41:43,921 --> 00:41:45,881
But then you came along
and fucked with my chi.

701
00:41:45,881 --> 00:41:49,468
You see, Standish runs my diary.

702
00:41:49,468 --> 00:41:51,845
Now, without her, I don't really know
what I'm supposed to be doing.

703
00:41:51,845 --> 00:41:56,266
So I've got all this spare time...
[sucks teeth] ...to come and fuck with you.

704
00:41:58,602 --> 00:41:59,728
[horns honking]

705
00:42:13,283 --> 00:42:14,535
[horn honking]

706
00:42:16,078 --> 00:42:18,539
- [people chattering]
- [witness 1] Check his pulse.

707
00:42:20,207 --> 00:42:21,208
I can't find a pulse.

708
00:42:22,042 --> 00:42:23,669
His airways are clear,
but he's not breathing.

709
00:42:24,253 --> 00:42:25,754
Jesus Christ. That's Webb.

710
00:42:26,839 --> 00:42:29,132
[scoffs] Who was it who said, uh,

711
00:42:29,132 --> 00:42:32,511
"You cannot reason with a tiger
when your head is in its mouth"?

712
00:42:32,511 --> 00:42:33,595
Churchill.

713
00:42:34,638 --> 00:42:35,889
[buzzing]

714
00:42:38,725 --> 00:42:40,227
Oh, but that won't be Webb calling,

715
00:42:40,227 --> 00:42:42,938
seeing as he's now
outside impersonating roadkill.

716
00:42:42,938 --> 00:42:47,025
[sucks teeth] No, that'll be
your tiger team, looking for your head.

717
00:42:54,825 --> 00:42:57,452
