If we give up on this baby, we give up on everything.
You and Callum, it's real, isn't it?
We want immunity for Callum and Jude. You have till tomorrow.
Whatever grubby deal you're planning, it won't work.
This is for Ryan McGregor.
SCREAMING
Revenge, that's all that matters to you, is it?
You don't belong in her world, Callum.
And I want to believe that you actually care about me.
Is this it, then?
It's time you make some difficult choices.
What are you doing?
The right thing.
Omo mi, I know you don't want to be here.
But security insisted.
If you want to help Callum, perhaps you should speak to your baba.

Mama.
Cal.
No touching.
What have they done to you?
It's nothing.
Sephy... Seph. You go.
Sephy's fine. She's at home.
Is she still angry with me?
I know she wants to see you.
Kamal, they want me to say I set him up. Attempted murder.
Jude.
Yeah.
They're building a whole story about me and Jude.
I don't know who he is any more.
They want me to give him up.
That's why they let you in here.
They want you to persuade me to give up Jude.
I'm going to fight this and I'm going to win, yeah.
I'm going to win.
You said he was out.
Well, now that he's here,
there's no harm in talking to your baba.
Is he going to let Callum go?
Callum's... I've told you before.
I can't be seen to interfere with the law.
You interfere all the time, Baba.
At least be honest about that. Don't try and hide behind others.
Hiding? Who's the one who's been...
Callum had nothing to do with it.
All these excuses. They're both as bad as each other.
They're both liars. They're both violent.
Callum's guilty,
and the most honest thing he ever did was give himself up,
because he knows what he is,
it's only you who can't see it.
My intelligent, my beautiful daughter.
You've thrown your life away for these people.
None of them are worth a damn.
Not compared to you.
You're the victim here.
They stole your life from you.
You did that.
You.
I'm Stokes.
I'm Callum.
BANGS ON DOOR Cara.
Cara, please.
I know I fucked it. It's my fault.
Yes, it is. It is your fault.
Please. Look, I don't know what to do.
I've told the LM I'm out.
They've moved Callum to prison.
My mama, she's not speaking to me. Please, Cara.
I need to come in. I want to see you.
You could have talked me out of it.
Don't...put that on me.
I need to sort my own life out, Jude. I can't fix yours as well.
I don't even know what you want.
I want them gone. I want them off this island.
Does that include me?
No.
You do know Crosses will never be gone, right?
You keep doing the same thing -
breaking things, then breaking things again.
Insulting me, then apologising.
Then insulting me some more.
Maybe try something different.
Like what?
Talk to your mama.
My mama doesn't want to speak to me.
I've called the lawyer.
He's already on his way to the prison.
I'll pay him whatever he asks to represent Callum.
Thank you.
Sorry.
I just feel like we've only just been here with Ryan.
BANG ON DOOR
Come in.
Shashi Bandara.
Oh. I didn't expect you to...
My husband hates you.
He'll hate me to when he finds out we're in the same room.
Jas.
Have you come to help Callum?
Yes, I have.
Good. Sit down.
Thank you.
Three in a row. How's that even possible?
You stay alive and you'll beat me, in a decade or two.
And how do I do that?
Make a deal.
Plead guilty.
Maybe they'll go easy on you.
Easy?
Jesus, Stokes, how long have you been in here?
Longer than you've been alive, probably.
Listen...
..anything they're offering, take it.
There is no beating the system.
Your baba was in here, wasn't he?
Yeah.
Different wing, same old story.
McGregor.
Sephy.
Hi.
Hello.
It's good to see you.
It's good to see you too.
I wish you hadn't done it.
I really wish you hadn't.
I had to do it, Seph.
Running all over the place again,
I just couldn't do that to you.
Or the baby.
But I'm fine.
I'm moving into my mama's place.
And yours is coming to stay too.
At least until the baby comes.
You should be careful around her. She's a feeder.
She starts on lunch before you've even digested breakfast.
SHE CHUCKLES
I miss you so much.
I miss you too.
I wanted to tell the truth in front of everyone
so Kamal would have to face it and own it.
They're telling me if I plead guilty,
they might take that into account.
It would mean years in here.
I'd wait for you,
however long it took.
For what, 20 minutes of happiness a week?
Kamal's been pushing for more use of the death penalty
for LM offences. What if the Elders give me that?
He'd never do it. Come on, Seph.
He'd never do that.
DOOR OPENS Miss Hadley. What?
I've been asked to remove you.
We've got 20 minutes. It appears you're not supposed to be here.
It's OK, Sephy. You should never have been allowed in.
This is my father, isn't it? No, don't touch him...
The trial of Callum McGregor opens today.
McGregor is charged with the attempted assignation of Prime Minister...
NEWS TURNS OFF
Minerva?
I'd rather you didn't go.
I just...
Koda. It's not right, what's happening to Callum.
Minerva...
he's, he's guilty or he's innocent.
It's...
I mean, I know what I think, but it's the law.
Don't leave your baba.
I'm sorry.
I have to go.
PROTESTORS SHOUT INDISTINCTLY
Wo bi.
Callum McGregor, you are charged with the attempted murder of Kamal Hadley,
the Prime Minister. What do you say? Ki lo ni lati so?
I didn't do it.
I admit I was angry at the unfairness of it all,
and believe me, I've done some stupid things that I'm not proud of.
But I didn't do what you're accusing me of.
Mr Balogun,
Albion has made a submission that the case be heard in private.
What? That's not fair!
On the basis that the defence will bring evidence
potentially detrimental to national security.
Elder Kaba,
now, given the high profile nature of this case,
it's all the more important that this evidence be heard in public.
Now, with all due respect,
this national security argument is meritless.
We shall decide that.
Oh, man. This is all just a game, innit?
But there are only a few moves allowed.
All you up there, you're all trapped in it just as much as I am.
The only difference is that
the rules are designed to make me lose.
Wo bi.
All this effort, all this waste of life,
you're just about trying to stop... Mr McGregor.
..two people from loving each other. Mr McGregor. Da ke je.
Listen, Seph, see that time we had together, yeah...
I want everyone to listen.
I wouldn't do anything different. I love you, Sephy.
I love you.
This is classic Kamal,
misusing the law to hide inconvenient truths.
We should challenge it.
No. Even if we won, it would be too late,
and he knows that.
He just wants us to waste our time trying.
I'm worried the LM won't stay quiet.
I'll talk to Jude.
Minerva.
Yes.
What's this?
I look cute.
I'm really not playing with you.
I was supporting my sister.
Sit down.
We don't make each other happy.
Don't do that. Do we? Don't do that.
I think I liked the idea of us more than the reality.
And it's not me you want, it's being with a Hadley.
A Nought took something from you, and you can't stand it.
But I can't replace her. I'm sorry.
I'm sure your job is safe,
with your connections.
Baba can't do without you.
You see, you and that sister of yours, eh...
You are a disgrace to your family. SHE SNICKERS
O da bo.
I wasn't sure you'd come.
We're worried the LM are going to do something to jeopardise the trial...
..something that will play into Kamal's hands.
Can you please talk to them, Jude?
I told them I was out.
Jude.
I am doing everything I can to try and help.
You should be too.
Yeah.
Why did you do it?
We had a chance at a better life.
And you did that.
I'm just so fucking angry.
It's all the time.
It's always been there.
I don't know what's wrong with me.
No, it hasn't.
HE SOBS
It's not always been there.
HE SNIFFS
I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry. Jude.
Here, Stokes.
Yeah?
See that thing, there.
The thing. What, that?
Yeah, you don't really use that, do you?
No.
Is it all right if I have it?
Yeah.
It's just... Thanks.
GADGET BLEEPS
Hi, Sephy.
And hello, little baby.
It's me, Callum.
I'm your baba. HE LAUGHS
It feels weird to say.
Look, there's...just a few things I have to explain,
and I hope you'll understand.
PROTESTORS SHOUT INDISTINCTLY
Upon the careful consideration of all evidence...
..we have come to a decision.
E te ti yin ke gbo.
Callum McGregor,
you carried out an attempt on the life of Kamal Hadley.
You should know that an attack on our dear Prime Minister
is an attack on Albion itself.
Your accomplice in this,
your own brother, is still at large.
This was a heinous act.
O si taku pe o lowo be.
Not only have you denied any involvement in it,
you have shown no remorse whatsoever.
And now Albion is asking
for the most severe of punishments.
Harsh penalties threaten unrest.
But to treat lightly a crime of this magnitude
would invite a different form of disorder.
Callum McGregor...
..I hereby sentence you...
..to death by hanging.
COURT MURMURS INDISTINCTLY
I love you.
RECORDER BLEEPS
Hey, little one.
It was a big day today.
It's not going to happen.
I promise I'm not going anywhere because...
..I've got to see that beautiful face at least once.
It's just a small setback, that all.
We get caught up in those and we miss the big picture sometimes,
but we'll get there.
Slowly, but we'll get there.
ALL CHATTER INDISTINCTLY
Jo, let me see him.
It's just like I told you yesterday and the day before.
He's off the visiting list.
I wonder who did that.
I'm sorry.
I'd let you in if I could.
I'll see you tomorrow. Pele.
Kamal might be angry, but his revenge has gone too far.
A sentence like this will turn McGregor into a martyr.
The Muscovites must be laughing at us.
Kamal is making Albion look weak.
How can he run the country when he can't even run his own house...
Airport.
Free Callum! Free Callum! Free Callum! Free Callum!
Free Callum...
Shashi. Any news?
I'm about to see her.
Just...don't get your hopes up.
Mo Juba, olori mi.
You should not have come, Shashi.
By now, Kamal knows that you have made this trip.
He also knows that I have agreed to see you.
Mo kuku mo eni ti mo ni.
For a man like Kamal, that is enough provocation.
Olori mi. Ah-ah!
Oro yi soro die.
The power of pardon is rarely used, and certainly,
not for one who is accused of what Callum McGregor is.
Aprica cannot afford to further alienate Albion.
Kamal is perverting the justice system for revenge.
Callum McGregor, a young Nought, is facing an unjust death.
If you allow this to happen, it won't be forgotten.
With respect, Albion has become a backward outpost.
Forgive me, Olori-mi, I...I forget myself.
You think that you can defeat Kamal in an election.
The gap is narrower than you think.
SHE SUCKS AIR THROUGH TEETH Politicians.
The situation in Albion is untenable.
Kamal knows it.
More Noughts will get the vote,
change is inevitable,
whatever you decide.
So why not save a life?
Free Callum!
It's been going really well. Thank you.
We've had so much support from the public.
There are more people arriving every hour now.
We'd urge more Crosses to join us too.
You know, just cos they're less likely to come for us if Crosses are here.
She's been at the entrance gates every day,.
One of the guards said.
There's loads of them out there now. I can hear it.
I'm not surprised.
How did she manage it?
You see, Sephy can do anything.
We just want to send a strong message about
the politicisation of justice. And we just really...
BLEEPING
A stunning intervention.
The Empress has used her authority
to commute Callum McGregor's sentence.
And there it is.
McGregor will no longer face the death penalty.
The Prime Minister has been blindsided.
And he doesn't take losing well.
The Empress commuted the sentence.
Sephy. Sephy. You will never believe it.
What?
The sentence has been commuted. The Empress of Aprica. We did it.
What? What?
I can't believe it.
Can you hear all that? What's going on out there?
It's been commuted.
What?
Aprica intervened.
No way.
You've done it, Cal. Stop it!
THEY LAUGH HAPPILY
DOOR CLOSES
You've seen it?
Uh? Yes.
Erm... Sir....
When this is over, I'd like to end my secondment.
Sir.
Mr Hadley...
Sir. Yes.
I'd like to return to the army.
You...
You think this is all over.
You, erm...
You want to try and save yourself, is that it?
The army's my family.
This isn't over.
Not yet.
PROTESTORS SHOUT Tell you what, little baby,
your mama is something else
and you're half of her so you're very lucky.
You can probably hear it all going on outside.
I thought you'd like to hear.
She's bought us time,
and that's all we've got, to be honest.
I promise that I'm going to fight. I'll never stop fighting for you.
PROTESTORS GO QUIET
Why'd it stop?
PHONE BLEEPS
The recent attempt by Aprica
to intervene in our legal process is unacceptable.
We send our soldiers to fight
and to die in Aprica's wars.
We deserve more respect.
It is time that Albion took control of its own destiny.
Therefore, from today,
we will no longer accept Aprican authority over Albion.
Our justice will be fair.
Our justice will be swift.
He's bringing it forward.
How?
I know what I said. I tried, didn't I?
But it's not enough.
They're going to kill Callum.
You promised your mama that you... I have to do something.
Yeah, it's Jude.
Listen, Morgan, I need your help.
It's a lot to ask but I need it.
What do you need?
Three or four people and as many as we can get on the inside.
DIAL TONE
This is Kamal Hadley. Please leave a message.
DIAL TONE
This is Kamal Hadley. Please leave a message.
He's not picking up.
I really hope you'll get a fair go.
And Noughts won't have to spend all their time wondering what life would have been like,
if things were different.
Your grandfather, he wouldn't have had to worry all
the time about providing for his family.
Sorry. Sorry.
Excuse me. Sorry.
It should have started by now.
I'm coming for you, little brother.
Your grandmother wouldn't have been fired for no reason.
Uncle Jude, he would have had his own garage somewhere
fixing up cars.
You know, he always said I could've been a teacher or
a doctor or something.
Well, that went wrong, didn't it?
INDISTINCT ARGUING OUTSIDE
What's going on?
Sounds like it's kicking off.
McGregor, they're coming for you.
It's the LM.
It's Jude.
What?
Only my brother would do something this crazy, trust me.
SIREN BLARES
Is something meant to be happening?
I'll go get McGregor.
If anything happens, make sure Sephy gets this.
You're too late. They moved him.
DOOR SLAMS SHUT
It's over.
Get away from me, you dagger.

Today is historic.
It's been a year since Kamal Hadley committed a terrible wrong.
But today, finally,
he has been asked to step down, by his own party,
at the direction of Aprica. CROWD CHEERS
An election will be held.
When the results come out, Atunbi may yet lose.
But something bigger was won today -
a first step towards true equality.
Come on.
Thank you. You got this.
I'm....
I'm not much good at speeches.
But Callum would've told me not to bottle it. So...
I wish he could have seen you all.
We'll never forget you, Cal.
You'll always be an inspiration to us.
We're only just getting started.
It might take a while,
but we'll do our best to try and fix things.
That will be a fitting tribute to my boy...
..my Callum.
They took Callum.
We haven't forgotten. The war goes on.
KNOCK AT DOOR
Sir...
Sir, I need your help, please.
The army's calling a court martial...
..because of the Ofa Brotherhood.
They're going to strip me of my commission
and I could face criminal charges.
It was your responsibility, Kamal.
I only have this because of you. Because of you.
