This programme contains some strong language
There is strength in difference. I urge you, Crosses and Noughts,
to protect your identity.
Watch yourself, McGregor. It's time we regained order.
The cause has to be bigger than any one life.
Baba, I have been kidnapped. I've not been hurt.
The Callum that I knew was full of love and not hate.
Turning on your own kind, Jude. Jude, come on!
Callum, run. GUNSHOT
No. I'm trying to protect you.
Baba... You are threatening my entire world.
She loves him, Kamal. I'm going to help them.
And whether you join me or not, it's up to you.

Do you love me, Sephy Hadley?
I love you, Callum McGregor.

Wish what?
..it was you and me and no-one else.
Following his return to office,
Prime Minister Kamal Hadley has set out his priorities
for his term, including widening the use of the death penalty
for LM offences.
Hadley's daughter, Sephy, remains missing,
more than a month since her abduction and LM suspects
Callum and Jude McGregor remain at large.

You've got to stop! He didn't do anything.
Stand back. Stand back!
Sephy... Sephy, someone's coming.
We've got to get out of here. What? Get inside.
It's the owner. Get our stuff.
Quickly, Callum!
Who's there?
Who's in there?
Come out!
Yes!
Shit. Where are the keys?
Yes!
Shh, sh, sh, sh...

Pff... Another false sighting.
It was nothing.
Ki lo sele.
He got into her head.
Don't worry, we'll, erm...
We'll get her the best help.
She'll recover.
Soon be time for the parade.
Why don't you get some rest?
SHE CONCEDES
She's not going to believe that story of yours forever, you know.
Sephy's pregnant, Kamal. Pregnant.
Which way?
Wh... Where do we go now?
Well, there's nowhere we can go.
Not in Albion.
Or Aprica.
Well, what...?
What about Muscovy? Muscovy?
Yeah. It's thousands of miles away. No, that's crazy.
What, more crazy than anything else we've done?
Seph, me and you having a baby. That is pretty crazy.
Your baba can't reach us in Muscovy.
They're the enemy.
If we can find a way to get there...
I mean, there's...
There's traffickers...
Traffickers?
I know, but...
..they cost money, and I mean a lot of money.
What you doing?

Whoa... Where're we going?
London.
Hi, thanks.
Oh, hi. We've got a voucher.
Erm... We're low on okra, but that should last the week. Thank you.

Nobody wants to be out,
not with the OFA brotherhood on the streets.
OK. Early finish. Yeah.

Report me for what?
I'm sure you'll fink of something.
Crosses always do.
I'm not a Cross.
I mean, I'm half Cross, but I don't see myself as one.
Where'd you live then? Sikasso Town.
What are you doing?
I'm packing up.
Trying to hide from these OFA bastards.
And now it looks like this is no good, so...

The Vigilante of the Brotherhood today claimed
responsibility... SIREN WAILS
..for the murder of two Nought teenagers.
The incident will likely increase...
Are you sure they won't be at home?
Yeah. They'll be with the Empress.
The African Empress officially starts her state visit
with a traditional procession later today.
Her visit comes amid rising tensions...
I'm by the Empress. Stop. Put that down.
Olori mi. Mo Juba.

Prime Minister Hadley,
I'm sure you must consider this an unwelcome visit.
You're never unwelcome in Albion, olori mi.
I was surprised, o ya mi lenu die,
when I learnt that you had resumed your post as Prime Minister.
This must be difficult.
I am so sorry for the pain that your family is going through.
And I do hope that your daughter is found soon.
Ese, ma.
We in Aprica are concerned about Albion.
Fast-tracking the death penalty for LM members?
Oh, that's merely a proposal.
Gbe yen segbe kan. Let's talk about the OFA Brotherhood now.
Now, these are young men in high spirits, ma'am.
They are extremists, Prime Minister. You need to put them under control.
The situation is in hand.
This is it.
This is our chance to get the money.
You ready?
Yeah.
Hi, erm, can you help me?
Sephy Hadley?
Are you OK?
Give me the keys.
Move. All right.
Come on, we won't have long.
Up here.
Aminata said her parents keep money here.
Callum, check the other side.
Sephy. Yeah?
Bad news.
We need the code.
Sephy?
Don't move. Don't move. Don't do anything stupid.
Get back! Get back! Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Get over there now!
Callum, stop. Sit down! Duro!
Sephy?
Sephy Hadley?
What's the code to the safe?
Right, get up.
Come on, you know where to go. Go.
Ki lon se, Sephy?
What are you doing?
I'm so sorry.
Won wa e Ore ni wa. We're supposed to be friends.
He's making you do this, right?
Is he making you do this?
Listen, you can keep your jewellery. We just need the money.
WOMAN SHOUTS
How dare you?
Hey, get back. Get back!
Get over there. Get over there.
Move. Move!
Right, now, you stay in there.
You stay in there.
Sephy. Sephy, are you OK?
I got the money. Oh, the baby.
Sir?
I've got an urgent update for you.
What did you find out?
Oh! OK, Mum, I'm going to get you in this one.
As you can see, Shakara runs in the family.
Just let me explain.
Sephy's been brainwashed by her captors.
She's being forced to engage in their actions.
He didn't force her. Aminata.
Baba Kene.
I'm her friend. I know her.
Leave!
Now!
No.
DOOR SLAMS I understand.
Our families share a, a history.
It's an important history.
So, I'd appreciate your...
..discretion.
You'd be well compensated for your, erm...
..for the inconvenience.
THUNDER RUMBLES
Sir?
She's alive.
But she may be hurt.
I want you to check all the hospitals.
Right away, Sir.
Following her abduction by the Liberation Militia,
the Brotherhood has been linked to a number of crimes,
most recently, the killing of two Nought teenagers.
Here's what the Prime Minister had to say earlier.
Vigilante reprisals on the Noughts carried out by the OFA Brotherhood
in the name of your daughter - do you condemn it?
Look, the first thing to say is that it's the so-called
Liberation Militia who are seeking to divide Noughts and Crosses.
Security for all, that's what I believe in,
and what I'll be emphasising at the Aprican State conference today.
Only the biased media would call that unreasonable.
Listen, there's no bias here.
We try to bring both sides on each issue.
Any morning sickness?
No. Not recently.
The baby's fine, Mama.
But...do you want to keep it?
Well, let's just get out of here now. Yeah.
Callum.
Shit.
Walk, walk.
Please.
Come with me.
Did they come in here? Who?

E se.
Give me your update.
They've located the stolen car,
and surveillance have pulled footage from the hospital.
And?
Nothing yet.
But, sir, I...
..questioned the nurse.
Sephy's...
She's pregnant.
How are they this bloody useless?
So close, and still they miss them.
Either Sephy is fundraising for the LM,
or she's planning to run.
Either way, she's in London.
Find her.
Sir.
DOOR CLOSES
Mama.
Mama!
It's good to see you.
What are you doing here?
You shouldn't have come here.
They follow me sometimes.
I know.
Sorry.
Sephy, is everything all right
with you and the baby?
I'm fine.
Mama and Minerva,
are they all right?
I don't know, sweetheart.
I haven't seen them.
I haven't heard from them.
We need a place to stay.
What?
I'm sorry to ask.
Well, I wish I could take you home with me.
Yeah, me too.
I've got a friend who might be able to help - might.
It won't be for long. Just until we...
We can't keep running.
I'm going to leave Albion and maybe try Muscovy.
I need you to help me find Jude.
He has contacts that might help us get out.
I'll ring you.
OK. Give me a couple of hours.
Thank you. Just go.
I love you.
I love you too.
LIGHT BUZZES
What's your name?
Danny.
I'm Cara.
Why are you doing this?
You said you was hiding from the OFA Brotherhood.
I get that.
Mm.
What they did to these kids...
I saw.
It was terrifying.
Well, you're all right.
It's not like they're going to come after you.
You don't look like one of us.
I told you. I don't see myself as a Cross.
Doesn't mean other people are going to see it that way.
I mean...
..like, you can walk down the street without being hassled.
And I bet Noughts treat you better too - we hate ourselves that much.
Don't tell me what I am.
It's just the reality.

I unpacked Sephy's things,
when I moved in to the official residence...
..just so I could touch them.
I think they're in London.
Sephy and Callum.
But Kamal, he keeps things from me.
I don't expect you to tell me
if you know where they are.
But I need to know if they're safe.
They're safe.
As long as I stay close to Kamal,
and use my position,
I can try and bring them back home.
I'm sure that's what they want.
They're not coming back, are they?
Well, it's not safe.
Not in Albion.
Good?
Yeah.
Wait here, Seph.
Sure.
Bird Of Paradise by Cory Hanson
# I dream myself tonight
# A bird with wings of fire
# My jaw was swollen tight
# My jaw... #
Come here.
# I'd flown to every bar
# Yet hold me... #
Look at you.
Beard works for you!
Shut up.
I got Mama's message.
You could've got her in trouble.
I was careful.
How is she?
Putting a brave face on it, but you know.
Look...
..we need to leave Albion.
We were nearly caught.
And go where?
Muscovy.
Think you can help us? I mean, you've got contacts.
Even if I could find someone, who's paying?
I don't know about you, but I'm living off scraps.
We've got the money.
Why don't you come with us?
Bro, in Muscovy we can look out for each other.
I mean, what's here for you?
I've got plans.
I'm going to lay low for a while.
I going to see if the LM will take me back.
That's never going to happen. You killed Dorn.
They'll never forgive you for that.
Yeah, well, I heard there's a new crew running things now.
They've come down from Litherpole.
You need to think about the future.
Cal, you cannot run.
The fight's here.
Sephy's pregnant.
Let me talk to him.
I know it's not what you wanted to hear.
Jude, we love each other.
As long as he's with you, he's a target.
And you, Sephy Hadley, are the bullet in his head.
If I am, what choice do we have, then?
We have to leave Albion.
It's carnage out there cos of you.
I'll meet you here tomorrow,
if the OFA Brotherhood don't kill me first.
These Noughts, they're like parasites.
I know it's a strong word, right,
but that is the only word I can only use.
Honestly, all they do is worm their way into strikes that aren't
designed for them, and when they hear something they don't like,
suddenly we're racist - everyone's got a problem,
everybody's oppressive, everybody's this, that and the other.
There's only so much we can take, right? Exactly.
That's exactly what I'm saying. It's madness out there.
It's literally madness out there, and I don't.... E dake!
Everyone in this room
knows that our culture, that our heritage,
is under attack.
That it's not merely enough for it to be protected,
but championed.
And when we find such protectors,
when we find such champions...
..then we know that we have found the dearest of brothers.
Lieutenant Lekan Baako is such a brother.
A great protector and a great champion.
Sijuwola.
Guide us.
Oyaaa!
May we continue to protect and to champion.
May we continue to fight until Sephy is brought home.
May we continue to do so for Sephy.
For Sephy!
For Sephy, for Sephy!
So we're through here.
Erm, let me know if there's anything I can help you with
or if there's anything you need.
Meggie'd help me if it was my kids.
Thanks, Clem.
DOOR CLOSES
Everything will be different, won't it?
Muscovy.
The baby.
It'll be different but...
..we'll be fine.
Will it?
What are we going to do in Muscovy?
Well, you can speak some Russian, so that's a start.
Hey.
You can do anything you want.
I just wish I could say goodbye to Mama and Minerva.
You know?
And Baba.
Well, do you want to stay?
He'll never accept the baby.
And we've already made it this far.
Did you even think about what I asked you?
Yes. About doing something for Callum?
I think this is more about Sephy,
and I will find her. Unless she goes abroad or something.
Why would you think that?
TABLET ALERT Look, I...
We all can understand what the Prime Minister is going through.
But his response to these tragic events
suggests he's failing to maintain emotional distance.
I recognise that the colour of my skin brings certain advantages.
Even so, I feel I must stand up, and I am not alone.
12 of us are leaving Kamal Hadley's party and
forming a new one.
Atunbe, for both Noughts and Crosses.
So I found this guy who works down at the docks.
He knows some people.
Be here tonight.
Someone will meet you.
Listen, they want 50 grand.
20 upfront and then 30 to be owed.
And then the traffickers, they've got connections in Muscovy.
Well, 20 will clean us out.
You trust them?
Yeah.
It's safe.
So this is it, then?
Yeah.
You know, I hoped to change your mind.
So much for looking out for each other.
I should've known. It's only ever about her, isn't it?
She won't hack it in Muscovy.
She'll hate you for it in the end.
Excuse me.
Have you got any smartphones?
Yes.
Thank you.
PHONE RINGS
Baba.
I'm only calling to say goodbye.
Please don't go.
We've all been so worried about you.
Your Mama is beside herself.
We heard you were injured?
Please come home.
We're not a family without you.
Sephy, you can't want to live like this.
And you can have your life back.
University.
You...
You must know what's being done in your name.
The OFA Brotherhood, these innocent Nought deaths -
you can't allow it to continue.
Well, it's YOU that's allowing it to continue.
I just have one question I want you to ask yourself, and that's...
..are you doing this just to make Callum happy?
No good can come of a...
You know, your child will-will...
..will face scorn and hardship.
Do you really want that for it,
for people to look at it in disgust?
We will love our child, Baba.
Of course you will.
Of course you will, if you care for it
half as much as I care about you.
I'll make sure the charges against Callum are dropped.
There's just one condition.
You end the pregnancy.
E ma binu, E ma binu, E dari ji mi.
There he comes.
E dari ji mi. Your Imperial Majesty.
Mm. Shall we?
Excuse me, my ladies.
Thank you. We are an island here...
TEA POURS
..far from you, but close to the war in Muscovy.
Surrounded by enemies.
I completely understand the situation.
No, I don't think you do.
Crosses are a minority here.
If we lose the upper hand,
or they no longer fear us,
they will kill us all.
Paranoia ni gbogbo eleyi.
This is paranoia, Kamal.
We in Aprica...
..value harmony.
I do not want to hear any more about hunting Noughts
or hanging them
for Sephy.
It has to stop.
Failure to comply, Kamal,
we will intervene.
I'm on it. Sending backup now.
Ready to deploy.
Something is happening, Abi?
I...
I don't know what you're talking about.
You're loyal to him.
And he hired you because he likes to have someone around who says yes.
He doesn't tell you everything, does he?
Sometimes he keeps things from you.
I imagine it hurt to hear about the pregnancy.
And I bet he told you Callum forced himself on her.
Do you believe everything Kamal tells you?
He spoke to Sephy on the phone, earlier...
..and they're trying to work out a triangulation right now.
We'll know the location shortly.
Cara...
Cara?
What I said earlier...
If you say you don't see yourself as a Cross,
I respect that.
This way.
Come on.
Where are we going?
Up there.
I'll probably never see him again.
See who?
My brother.
He's leaving Albion.
And the last time I spoke to him
I didn't even say goodbye.
My mama hid it from me that Baba was a Nought.
By the time I went looking for him he'd died already.
I never got the chance to say goodbye,
and I've always, always regretted it.
Is it too late
for you?
Don't leave things on bad terms.
Jude.
It is Jude McGregor, isn't it?
You should go and see Callum.
Take my car.
It's the shitty silver one in the car park.
Thanks.
Meggie McGregor?
I'm Shashi Bandara.
Yes... Ah, yeah.
I know who you are.
I've got a proposition for you.
You spoke to her?
You should've told me.
I did what you asked.
I-I offered to drop the charges.
That's not all you said to her!
Kamal, where is she?
Can we talk about it later?
I'm making sure she doesn't leave Albion.
Are you good?
It'll be fine.
All right, you lot, get out.
Oi.
Go. Go, go, go, go!
Come on.
Move!
Come on, move.
I said hurry up!
Open up that crate.
Come on!
What's that? You'll see.
What... What are they doing?
I ain't getting in that box. I said, "Get in."
Get in!
You can't go in that. No, no...
I'll be fine. No, no...
No!
We don't know how long it will be for.
Oi...
You two. Hey, whoa.
Leave him alone. Shut it, dagger. Hey, hey, hey!
Look, we don't want any trouble. Yeah?
Yeah. All right. Let's go, then.
