Cheers.
See you later, mate.
How you doing in there?
JESSICA: I’ll be fine.
Did they go?
JAMES: Uh-hmm.
All gone.
You sure you’ve got the passports?
I’ve got the passports.
Show me the passports.
( horn honks ) I don’t believe it.
JESSICA: Did you give them a tip?
JAMES: Yeah, I gave them a tip.
There--this is a different lot.
( intercom buzzes ) Sure.
On the floor!
Floor now!
EVANGELINE: Shut up!
I said shut up.
Don’t move.
James Carrodus.
Dealer of fine art.
Quite the reputation, but not above the odd privately brokered deal, selling fakes to Russian billionaires who don’t know any better, huh?
And his cash, James has liquefied in the form of 18 cut diamonds of outstanding quality.
Because that’s the best way to carry serious wealth, am I right?
Now, you’re off to start a new life in Rio with your beautiful bride, Jessica.
The limousine arrives in what, James, 15 minutes?
Ten.
Ten.
In 10 minutes you could both be in that limo.
All I need you to do is give me those diamonds.
I don’t have them.
Okay.
Okay.
There’s nothing.
DANIEL: You go get me those diamonds, James.
In two hours, let’s call it 10:15.
I’ve got those 18 diamonds in my hand, or we start cutting your lovely Jessica here.
Alright!
Alright!
Alright!
At this point, I’m sure you’re asking yourself, "Is he bluffing?"
I know you’ll appreciate, that it’s in my best interest to prove that I’m not.
Apologies in advance, Jessica.
JAMES: You don’t-- you don’t have to do this.
JESSICA: No, no, no please no.
Look, you don’t have to I’ll get you... JESSICA: No.
MAN: Guv.
Guv.
JOHN: Justin.
Hello, sir, can I help?
Ian Reed?
I need to see Ian Reed.
JOHN: Er, I’m afraid, DCI Reed is elsewhere.
I’m DCI John Luther, I share an office with Mr.
Reed, this is DS Ripley.
Can I help you?
Come on.
It’s her tongue.
TOM: Are you sure you want to play it this way, Dan?
It’s pretty hard-core.
The police, they get involved.
Kidnap, it’s gonna be... DANIEL: Did you just use my name in front of the victim, Tom?
JOHN: James, the fact of it is most kidnappings don’t come to our attention.
Because when it comes to family members, people pay up pretty fast.
You think I don’t want to do that?
You think I don’t want to give them what they asked for and get my wife back?
Do you think that?
James, I just need to understand what’s happening.
I came to see you because I haven’t got what they want, and have no way of getting it.
JOHN: What are you saying?
Jessica swallowed them.
The diamonds are inside her right now.
If I had have told them that they’d have cut her open on the spot.
Sorry.
Oh, yeah, that’s Bill Winingham.
He sent Carrodus directly to you.
Oh, yeah?
Now, how well do you know him?
Yeah, pretty well.
He’s a money launderer, basically.
Bit of a gent, as it goes.
Never involved in any bloodshed, not to my knowledge.
JOHN: Right.
Thing is, he was the one that procured the diamonds for Carrodus in the first place.
And he’s the only third party to know that they even exist.
So if anyone set this up.
I think he’s our man.
Turns out, no one seen Winingham for three or four days.
So we can’t find our sole lead?
No.
And the kidnappers want their ransom in just over an hour.
ROSE: You think they’ll make good on their threat?
Absolutely.
Listen, Bill knows me, so do his friends and family.
Do you want me to go out there, see if I can round him up, find out what the hell’s going on?
Yeah, see if you can do that.
So, they won’t give us what we want.
We can’t give them what they want.
JOHN: No, can’t give it to them, but we can lend it to ’em.
Meaning?
Let’s visit the evidence safe.
Don’t want to hear it.
Boss, these are very special circumstances.
Same rules do not apply.
Chain of evidence is like the Ten Commandments; it applies unto time and all eternal.
Anything in the evidence safe is sacrosanct.
We tamper, we risk voiding active cases.
Only if we get found out.
Am I actually having this conversation?
Are you actually saying this to me?
JOHN: Boss, listen, listen to me carefully, if we do not have any security to play with then, Jessica dies.
If I start stealing evidence... Borrowing.
If I start borrowing evidence to use for my own purposes... It won’t be out of my sight for a second.
MARK: Of course, I understand.
He’s your husband.
No.
No, he’s not.
MARK: Let me say it.
Let me get it out, when it’s said, it’s said and done.
I don’t want to ever have this conversation again.
I’m going to go away for a couple of days, I’m gonna give you time to think.
There’s nothing to think about.
MARK: Yes, there is.
And if you decide to stay with me there’ll be no recrimination.
No blame, no nothing.
We pick up where we left off, and we carry on.
But?
But, you can never see him again.
Not ever.
That means no phone calls.
No emails.
No nothing.
It’s necessary for me.
I can’t let you do this to me again.
I can’t.
How much are these worth?
JOHN: Oh, about three and a half million.
I appreciate the effort, but these people want something very specific, they--they want 18 diamonds of a particular size, quality and value.
That’s the best we can do.
It--it’s not what they want.
JOHN: James, I’m gonna need you to understand that unless we find a way to open up lines of communication with the kidnappers, they’re going to kill Jessica.
Not tomorrow, or the next day, but before this hand gets here.
So you will deliver these diamonds, but you will attach a note that says, "Give me Jessica and you’ll get the rest."
They won’t go for it.
JOHN: No, they won’t go for it.
But we’ll give them good enough reason to keep Jessica alive a little longer, and we will have made our first contact.
Once we can achieve that, then we can think about the next stage.
Ian.
It’s not my fault!
It’s not my fault.
Look, we all know the rules alright.
You rob a thief of stolen money, he thinks of that as cost of business.
He’s not going to the police, nobody gets hurt, no innocents are involved!
And that’s the way these things have always worked since I was a woodentop.
But this is kidnapping, Bill.
They took his wife.
They cut out her tongue.
Oh, sweet Mary.
So what happened?
BILL: I don’t know.
All I know is that they’re... supposed to call with the all-clear but... I’ve heard nothing.
Where are they now?
I don’t know.
No, that’s not good enough.
Okay, you need to listen to me, alright you need to forget about the money.
The money’s gone.
The money doesn’t matter.
You need to tell me what you know.
Who did your nephew recruit for the job?
Some American he hooked up with over there when he was at school.
He’s a bright boy.
He’s a clever boy.
"Some American."
That’s it?
I don’t know where they are!
Bill they are going to kill her.
Oh, Jesus.
Okay.
And I can’t be responsible for her death, not because the chance to make a few... easy quid went wrong.
So I have to make sure she gets through this.
Do you understand me?
Whatever it takes, I have to get her through this!
Of course.
( mobile phone ringing ) Do you have it?
JAMES: Yes.
Alright, Westfield Shopping Centre.
Central Hall.
Twenty minutes.
Twenty minutes?
Er... I don’t think I can make it-- I need... ( line goes dead ) JOHN: What’s he waiting for?
ROSE: I’m watching.
Benny, what’s he doing?
I don’t know.
But we don’t like it.
All right, he’s made his drop.
Yeah.
ROSE: Cover all 2nd-floor stairs and escalators.
JUSTIN: Okay, I’ve got an eyeball two live ones.
One male, one female.
Here we go, here we go.
BENNY: Subjects approaching drop point.
They have the bag.
Son of a bitch!
TOM: What’s wrong?
She’s not happy.
Something’s wrong.
I don’t know ROSE: Get in closer, can you?
No diamonds.
What do you mean, no diamonds?
I mean, run the bastard down.
Go!
Go!
JOHN: Justin, if she makes that call, Jessica’s dead!
Don’t lose him.
MAN: Excuse me.
You’re under arrest for the kidnapping of Jessica Carrodus.
You do not have to say anything... Benny, Benny, come on.
Boss, come on.
John, I’ve lost him.
I’m sorry.
JOHN: We’ve lost him?
We’ve lost him.
Oh, [...].
( mobile phone ringing ) Listen, I don’t know who you are or where you are.
You’re still in control here.
So don’t put the phone down.
Prolong the situation.
Ensure the safety of the hostages.
Foster relationship between negotiator and hostage taker, but most importantly, keep things calm.
Look, I know you’re no amateur.
Alright, so I’m not going to try and play you, here.
Yeah, I will try and trace the call, but it’s gonna take me a couple of minutes to get in motion.
By the time I do that, you’ll be long gone.
You’ve got one minute.
Carrodus kept the ransom.
He did, huh?
JOHN: Last minute calculation.
The way he sees it.
Jessica was going to die, even if he gave you the money.
So, why give you the money?
It looks like we both lost him, right?
JOHN: Look, I don’t care about him.
I want Jessica back.
That’s all we want.
DANIEL: No, it’s not.
No, you want to arrest me and send me to prison.
JOHN: Yeah, I do want that.
But that’s not an outcome I can expect, not right now, not given the circumstances.
So I’m gonna go for plan B. Right, which is get Jessica back alive.
What’s your name?
JOHN: John.
But don’t doubt that I can get you what you want.
I--just give me three hours.
I tell you what, you give me a number and I’ll call you on it.
In one hour.
I’ll need proof of life.
DANIEL: No, you won’t get it John.
You see this is a game of trust now John.
Do you think you can manage that?
JOHN: Alright, take this number down.
Uncle Bill, it’s gone bad.
What do you mean?
TOM: There’s no ransom.
There’s hot and cold running police.
[...].
What?
TOM: They’ve nicked Evie.
Right, Daniel’s lost it.
If I go back to him empty-handed, no diamonds, no Evie, right, that’s it, That’s it.
I’ve had it, I’ve had it.
Tom, I’ve got somebody here that needs to talk to you.
Jesus, Bill, who’ve you got there?
BILL: Don’t panic.
He’s a friend, alright.
He’s a friend.
Who’s there?
IAN: Okay, Tom you need to listen to me now.
Okay, are you listening?
TOM: Who are you?
Are you listening?
Yes, yes.
I’m listening.
Where are they keeping her?
I’m not gonna tell you that, am I?
Okay.
Tom, you can still get out of this with the money.
Do you understand me?
No.
No look, I’m sorry no, I don’t--I don’t understand.
I don’t get it.
The woman, okay, the woman, Jessica Carrodus.
She has the diamonds.
Just get her away from wherever she’s being kept.
Get her away safely and you can have it all.
I can’t!
IAN: If you don’t do this, if you don’t do this, hand to God, I’ll kill you myself.
ROSE: The evidence won’t leave our sight for a second?
We’ll get it back.
ROSE: We better, because right this second, I’m peddling thin air like Wile E. Coyote.
I’m sorry.
Can I get five minutes?
You can have two.
How are you?
ZOE: Good.
Nice to see ya.
Buh-bye then.
Hello.
Hello.
I haven’t seen you in here, forever.
I know.
It was a long time back.
I need a moment.
I can’t.
It’s a madhouse today.
Can I see you later?
Not really.
Are you really going to do this to me today?
In front of everyone?
Because I can’t make a scene, yeah.
Because you’re safer here.
What do you want me to do?
Beg you?
ZOE: I don’t want that.
Because I’ve done that.
I don’t want that.
You want me to ask you why?
You already know why.
Zoe, you say that.
And I don’t.
I mean, I think about it and then... I don’t really do think and just nothing, I don’t know why you keep doing this to me... ZOE: What do you mean?
These last few days.
It’s just been-- it’s just been a way of saying good-bye properly.
And I think we, we both knew that.
Deep down.
We knew it, didn’t we?
JOHN: Zoe.
I didn’t know.
Do you know who she is?
Do you have any clue what she might be going through right now?
Where she is?
Do you want to see her tongue?
Cause I have it somewhere here.
And then, get out... John... Get out!
Get out!
Get out!
Alright, back to work!
The clock is ticking!
JUSTIN: Evangeline Nixon.
Long history of violence, extortion, suspected kidnap.
Married to this man, Daniel Sugarman, 36.
Even longer history, armed robbery, extortion, kidnap.
More than one murder.
Yeah, that’s him.
But no facial tattoo.
No, I bet it’s fake.
Just look at his face, that’s all you’re gonna remember.
When’s he due to call?
JOHN: In about four minutes.
Oy, Winingham?
No sign of him.
All right.
All right.
( mobile phone ringing ) Alright.
I’m here.
Do you have it?
Most of it.
DANIEL: Most of it is not what we agreed, John.
Deal’s off.
What about Jessica?
DANIEL: You have to get this into your head.
Alright, I don’t care about her.
If I no longer believe her to be of sufficient value to you, then her value to me diminishes sharply.
Do you understand?
And right now, it seems to me that she’s verging on worthless.
Well, okay.
We’ve got Evangeline.
I mean, what’s her value?
DANIEL: To you, Evie’s an asset of very limited benefit.
I know she’s safe.
I know you can’t hurt her.
I know she’s strong and won’t say a damn word about me so keep her.
She’s not in play here.
She’s just a captured piece.
You bring me the money.
Last chance.
Alright, okay.
I can get... three or four million.
But it’s going to take some time.
DANIEL: You have one hour.
Plus, here’s a revised deal, you give me a hundred percent of what I want, you get back a hundred percent of Jessica.
You bring me eighty percent of what I want, you get eighty percent of Jessica, so on.
You take longer than an hour, you don’t get to know how she died or where I dumped her.
Alright, how long?
JUSTIN: Two to three minutes.
Make it two minutes.
Shhh!
Shhh!
Shhh!
Please, Jessica!
Hey I’m trying to get you out of here alright.
I’m trying to get you home!
Thank you.
We offered Daniel a swap, you for Jessica.
Do you want to know what he said?
"We’ve got Evangeline, I mean what’s her value?"
DANIEL: You have to get this in your head, alright.
I don’t care about her.
I no longer believe her to be of sufficient value.
And right now it seems to me that she’s verging on worthless.
So keep her and bring me the money.
I don’t have the patience or the time to feel sorry for you, so this is a one-time offer.
You tell me where Daniel’s staying and I’ll make sure you’re looked after.
You’ve got 10 seconds.
Then after that, I walk out of that door and you’ll never see me again.
I want to serve my term in the States.
I can arrange that.
( mobile phone ringing ) It’s the burn code.
That means, he’s on his way.
Well, that worked, and so what now?
Jessica’s being held alone, at worst being guarded by a third kidnapper, Tom Meyer.
Come on.
Get down.
Come on!
Come on.
Almost there.
TOM: [...].
( sirens blaring ) You okay?
No, I’m not.
Are you?
No.
What a God Almighty mess this is.
Have we erm, put it together?
Well, best guess?
Jessica sees Meyer as a nice guy.
You know, her best way out of here, classic Stockholm response.
So she tells him about the diamonds.
Meyer decides to rescue her, maybe keep the diamonds for himself.
And then just as they’re leaving, Sugarman comes back.
Turns on Meyer.
Tortures him until he gives up what’s happening.
So the only possible link to all this is the money launderer, Bill--what’s his name?
Winingham.
So track him down, throw accessory to multiple murder, kidnap, extortion.
In the face of that, he will give it up in five minutes.
JOHN: Mate?
Are you alright?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I’m fine.
It’s just er, what a mess, eh?
Yeah.
Erm, so listen, do you want me to erm, track down Winingham?
Yes.
And I’ll go for Sugarman.
He’ll vanish, John.
You know that, he’ll be gone.
No, he won’t.
No.
He knows we’ll be watching the airports and the ports.
He’ll probably go underground somewhere, lay low.
Are you sure you’re alright?
Yeah, yeah I’m fine.
You don’t look it.
No.
No... bad day.
Bad, bad day.
Your nephew’s dead.
Sugarman cut off his fingers and his ear.
And then they gutted Jessica and they took what was inside her.
Do you understand what I’m saying?
Tom only did what he did because I told him to.
If I had said nothing, my friends would have got there in time.
They had got to Jessica.
Tom would still be alive.
I made a really bad mistake, Bill.
I made a really, really bad mistake.
BILL: That’s all right son.
You didn’t mean to, Ian.
I know you didn’t mean to.
Okay.
Alright, so I need you to concentrate, okay.
I need you to concentrate because I have to start trying to clear up this mess, alright.
Does Daniel Sugarman know about me?
He asked if anyone else knew and... I told him no.
But he knew I was lying.
It’s okay.
It’s okay.
That’s okay, you know what, I know you had no choice.
I know you had no choice.
What did you tell him?
I told him I knew a copper who could smooth things over for us if we need it.
As long as nobody gets hurt.
I told him, I said, I said that is a deal-breaker.
No violence, no bloodshed.
Did you give him my name?
No, I wouldn’t do that.
Is there anything he asked you to do, anything that might help me find him before my friends do?
I don’t know.
He said something about passports, and I told him to get in touch with Patrick Holguin.
That’s good Bill.
That’s really, that’s really, really good.
That might help us.
Do you want a drink?
Yeah.
I’m so sorry, son.
Me too.
Thanks for coming.
Well, how could I not?
You sounded... This is just such an interesting place.
Where is this leading?
All those things you said to me about Zoe, about me, about us, about all of us.
You were right.
There is no love, not really, you know, most of it is just cruel and deceitful, just matter.
There’s absolutely nothing.
You know you hurt me very badly.
Don’t.
Okay.
No games.
No games.
Listen.
I did what I did to Henry Madsen because I wanted to help you.
It’s you who’s right.
There is love in the world.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Any progress on Carrodus?
No activity on the credit cards or the mobile.
All right now, I need to see Evangeline’s stuff.
It’s fake.
Erm, how quickly can we find out who made this?
Batches of forged passports tend to have defects specific to the forger.
So, Benny should be able to identify it pretty quickly.
Alright, cool.
Do you want me to come with?
No.
Stay here, stay on Carrodus.
Oh, get the diamonds back in the evidence room, save the Duchess’s sanity.
If I get a line on Sugarman, I’ll call ya.
Patrick, yeah?
Yeah.
Can you make me a passport?
A good one?
Best you’ll get.
Yeah?
There, you see that?
Oh no, not again.
All right.
Now, I don’t have much time so I’m not going to drag this out.
How many fingers do I have to break before I get you... He’s staying at The Renaissance.
The big hotel.
How’d you know that?
He wanted a total of nine passports for three people.
So?
So nobody buys in that volume except terrorists and whatever.
They have a lot of aircrews at the Renaissance and I thought, I don’t want anything to do with any of that, thank you very much.
So then what?
So I followed him.
What, you were going to make him pay for the passports and grass him up?
Too right.
I’ve got to live in this city, you know.
I’ve got family.
Not even forgers are honest these days.
Go on get out of here.
Wait a second.
What did you mean, "Not again"?
( mobile phone ringing ) Hey John, what’s up?
JOHN: Ian.
Don’t do it.
Don’t do what?
I know what you’re about to do.
And what am I about to do?
JOHN: Look I saw your face at the crime scene alright.
I know it did something to ya.
I know how that feels.
But if you hurt Sugarman, you’ll go down for it.
Alright.
It’ll finish ya.
Who says I’m going to hurt Sugarman?
I spoke to the passport forger.
I know you’re looking for him.
So?
So look, if you want two minutes with him alone, break his legs, whatever but, just let me be there to tell you when to stop, mate.
Alright.
Okay listen, let’s, let’s meet at the fountain.
JOHN: Fountain yeah, alright.
I can be there at three o’clock.
Alright but just you.
Alright, not Teller.
Not Ripley.
Just me and you.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Just me and you.
No Ripley, no Teller.
Alright, three o’clock at the fountain.
Okay, bye.
You’re not going to be at the fountain are you Ian?
Excuse me, no time to bull[...].
Is this man here?
Oh, you lying bastard, John.
You lying bastard.
Which room?
Listen.
Listen to me, listen to me, listen to me!
Listen, someone’s coming here for you, okay.
He’s coming, he’ll be here very soon, if he isn’t here already.
You know, ordinarily I’d let him do whatever he wants to you.
But he’s my mate, okay, and I don’t want to see him go to prison.
So if you want to live, Daniel, I need you to listen to me, come with me.
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Ian, Ian, Ian, Ian, Ian, listen, if you kill this man, that’s it for you, you know that right?
IAN: What are you going to do, John?
Arrest me?
JOHN: No that’s not what I mean and you know that.
No, I’ve known you too long, mate.
I know how your mind works.
Ian, this is not a play.
All right.
This is not a tactic.
Do you have any idea of the lies I’ve told for you, over the years for all the [...] you’ve done.
Yeah, well, I’ve never killed anyone have I?
Yeah.
Not for lack of trying.
And it was you Ian that stopped me every single time.
So here I am alright, returning the favor.
Don’t do it.
No matter how much he’s earned it.
It’s not worth it.
Hold on... What did this turd say to you?
JOHN: What?
What did he say about me?
JOHN: What do you mean?
IAN: What did he say?
What?
DANIEL: It now makes sense, you must be... Shut up.
[...].
Whatever... What did he say?
I don’t know what you mean.
What did he say?
I don’t know what you mean Ian!
I don’t know what you mean, all right, help me here I’m lost.
I’m just lost.
Whatever this is, whatever this is alright, we can make it go away.
I was here to make an arrest.
Sugarman was armed.
All right, you thought my life was in imminent danger and you took appropriate action.
Don’t say that.
Why?
Because you don’t know what I’ve done!
JOHN: I do know what you’ve done and I don’t care about it mate.
He’s nothing... No, not that!
JOHN: He’s nothing!
What?
Look, I knew about the robbery, all right?
Ian, you what?
Yeah, I let you go ahead for a percentage, and that’s why I’m here.
Not for revenge but to shut him up.
Now, still want to help me?
Still want to make it go away?
Did you know about the kidnapping?
No.
Alright, well, then good, cause I don’t care.
We can still make this work.
I didn’t want any of this, John.
You know that.
I tried to make it right.
I wanted it to be right.
I know.
I, I know.
How can I believe you?
You know how much I want to.
Because you know when I’m lying.
And right now, I’m not lying.
Take it.
All right.
You lying bastard.
You set me up.
No, I didn’t, Ian!
Ian.
Did you see him?
Did you see anyone?
No?
Ian look, it’s just the maid!
( mobile phone ringing ) Ian, Ian, Ian, listen to me, listen to me, we need er, we got to start talking mate, we got to start talking, otherwise this is going to bring us both down.
All right, I need you to talk to me.
MAN: Put these away in the safe, would you?
Ah, hello, Sir.
And you were going to value some diamonds for me?
MAN: Ah, yes, erm... They’re fakes, James.
They’re good fakes, but they’re fakes.
Evidence in a fraud trial.
Best we could do at short notice.
Jessica?
Thanks.
MARK: Hi, it’s me.
I’m not going to stay at Heather and Allan’s, it’s silly.
I’m going to come home.
I’m going to get in the car now and I’m going to come home.
I love you.
See you soon.
( knock on door ) Ian?
Hi, can I erm ... Yeah, yeah, of course.
Of course.
Come in.
Erm, tea?
Er, yeah, yeah, tea sounds, tea sounds great.
Unless you’ve got anything stronger.
ZOE: Oh, so what’s wrong?
Oh, bad day.
For everyone, apparently.
Er, listen Zoe, I need you to, I need you to call John for me and er ask him over.
Why?
Just do it, please.
Would ya?
But you can’t tell him I’m here.
Why not?
It’s complicated.
And it’s my house.
So what’s going on?
Okay, you er, you ever had one of those days, you just wish it would end but somehow it never does?
More than my share.
Well, that day’s today.
Cheers.
And if you do this for me, all right you’re going to help end it.
So please, please, will you just call John?
I can’t.
Why not?
Because actually, you’re scaring me.
Look I don’t mean to, I don’t mean to.
You know me and John are friends right?
Well, so call him yourself.
I can’t.
I can’t, I just can’t.
It’s just things have got really complicated.
Look Ian, I can see things aren’t right, that you’re in trouble.
All I can do is tell you to trust him because he’s your friend and that means a great deal to him, but, I can’t call him up and lie to him and, and pretend you’re not here.
I can’t do that.
You have to.
No, I don’t!
Just do it!
Just get your phone.
Zoe, please, please get your phone!
I don’t want to hurt you.
That’s not what I’m here for.
I just need you to call John, all right.
And ask him over.
And when he comes, will you be pointing that thing at him?
Yeah, I might have to.
Just for a bit.
Just so I can sit him down and make him hear what I’ve got to say.
All I want is to trust him.
And if I don’t?
Don’t make me answer that question please.
Look at me, hear what I’ve got to say.
Don’t make me answer that question.
Ian, please don’t.
Just do it!
