All language subtitles for Salting The Battlefield (2014)

(alarm sounding)

Cobra at 8:00.

Education secretary at 9:00.

Then to leicester,
factory visit, lunch,

Press conference,
back to london, the house.

I'm not doing
the backbenchers.

They don't
interest me.

Anthea can do them.

Sir, you agreed.
I'm not doing it.

6:30, french president.

Reception, dinner,
bilateral talks,

And it's your
mother's birthday.

Okay, and she gets?

A handbag.

It's very nice,
I've seen it.

All right...

Oh, I was promised
news of worricker.

None.

(speaking german)

(bell tolling)

I heard you come in.

Are you all right?

Yeah, I'm fine.

How was it?
Pretty brilliant.

I was brilliant,
I mean.

And them?
Yes.

They responded brilliantly.

Good-- I'm glad
you're back.

Let's go to bed.

Good morning.

Prime minister.

Express-- there was some
trouble in kiev.

Independent-- deputy prime
minister's husband

On bribery charges.

The sun-- billy whizz
does a runner.

Deputy pm's man
flees questions.

Times-- catcheside faces kiev
bribery allegations.

Guardian-- anthea catcheside's
husband accused by kiev.

(alarm sounding)

(all asking overlapping
questions)

Reporter:
Is it true your wife

Is planning to resign?

You're up.

Yes.

I'm surprised.

I left you sleeping.

Here.

We could make
coffee, you know.

I never make coffee.

I buy it.

I've noticed.

It's better;
I see more.

(reporters asking
overlapping questions)

Sorry, prime minister.

It's my fault,
I overlooked this.

Yes?

It's in the
independent.

Well?
It's about the bridge.

Strangely worded,
but it's asking

Where the financing
comes from.

Is stirling rogers
mentioned?
He is.

And the americans?

Yes.

It's suggesting that
you might be preparing

To move out of
downing street.

Well, I'm not.

So?

So what shall I say?

Well, we say nothing.

If we go near the fire,
we feed it.

If we ignore it,
it dies.

That's what I've learned.

But in this case?

In this case
specifically?

In this case as others.

By the way, what's
the journalist's name?

And when will she be
back in town, do you think?

Allegra, how are you getting on?

This little story of yours,
where does it come from?

I see, you're not
saying anything.

Well, when we get in court,
will it stand up?

Let's hope so.

You've run it very small.

That's not me--
that's editorial.

Okay.

(phone rings)

Well, of all people.

I thought you weren't
answering your phone.

I saw who it was.

Is there somewhere you can go
to be private?

You're crazy.

Have you read the papers?

Obviously.

Well, there is no private.

There hasn't been private
for getting on for a month.

I need to see you.

All right.

(phone ringing)

Rollo, bad news, I'm afraid--
we've had to move on.

Again? What is this,
grand tour of europe?

They're onto us.

Who? How do you know?

Because I recognized
a jogger in heidelberg.

I actually recruited her
five years ago.

Sure don't get any cleverer,
do they?

No, but we've all done worse
things in our time... Or I have.

Rollo, I need to know,
is the item in print?

Yeah, this morning.

Vague?

Well, suitably.

Any reaction?

Not yet-- too early.

And never underestimate
the british journalist's ability

To miss a good story.

Rollo, we need to get going.

This is feeling urgent-- can
you come out and see me?

Don't think so.

Because I've now got
an admirer of my own.

Well, my impression is
the entire service is working

To one remit--
find johnny worricker.

Let me know as soon
as we get a reaction.

It may take time, but I'll bet
the farm he's going to jump.

Morning, everyone.

Morning.

I don't believe this.

You told me we had a deal.

We did have a deal.

And?

Those friends of yours paid back
200 million.

That's what you told me.

It's true, to the cia.

And in return
we were promised

The end of the story.

I mean, we know
who's behind this.

Worricker.

Alec, think of it his way--
he's trapped.

They're both trapped,
the two of them, him and her.

They're panicking.

They can't live in exile
for the rest of their lives.

I have to deal with all sorts
of people, truly--

People I can't even begin
to describe to you.

I'm sure.
Yeah, all right.

Fair enough,
that's the job.

It costs me nothing.

I can do it in my sleep,
honestly.

But I demand one thing-- people
have to stick to their word.

Now, what's he up to?

What does he want?

And this has happened before.

He was meant to hand back
that file.

And he went back on his promise.

And now here we are.

He's done it again.

But you don't
actually know that.

What, you think this item
could be coincidence?

Don't jump
to conclusions.

It may turn out
to be innocent.

Look at the wording--
it's all pretty vague.

We don't even know the name
of the journalist.

Well, exactly.

But we know the paper,
we know its editor.

Yeah.

You're a friend of belinda's.

Everybody's a friend
of belinda's.

What, pony parties, is it?

Going up to oxfordshire
for barbecues and gin?

Her mother's a marchioness--
lady sheep-dip, lady cotswolds,

I don't know-- which means
she's not easy to reach.

She's so rich, so posh,
she doesn't give a fuck.

Well, that's the last thing
we need.

Alec, I don't like
to see you rattled.

You've done nothing
wrong, remember?

You're not on trial.

Not yet.

What charge are you meant
to be facing?

You've started a foundation,
which is for when you leave

Office to address major global
issues of war and peace.

It's been part funded by a group
of american entrepreneurs

Who work in many diverse fields,
including the security business.

So perhaps you'd like to tell me
what's wrong with that.

Well, you know what's wrong.

The world is complicated--
people have different interests.

Public, private-- it's just
how things are nowadays.

It's not a question
of how it is.

It's a question
of how it appears.

Especially when
these same americans

Have been caught ripping off
the american taxpayer.

They haven't been caught.

Not in public.

Which is why it's essential
that you remain the public face

Of the foundation.

Stirling, your hands are clean.

Certainly are--
spotless.

What's happening here?

I am trying to do something
important for my country.

Because we're at war,

If only people
would admit it.

In one year iran will have
a nuclear weapon.

And what, and I'm just supposed
to ignore it?

Just sit back, let it happen?

Alec, you are the greatest
politician of the age.

Your enemies are plankton,
truly.

Some rogue mi5 man
with a file--

Is this what the prime minister
of great britain

Should be worrying about
first thing in the morning?

Some tie-dyed arsehole

From the turks
and caicos?

Was he wearing tie-dye?

No, he wasn't.

Then why did you say it?

Because it's a metaphor.

And it's a joke.

Joke.

Alec, think about it,
seriously.

Your people are out there.

They've got europe locked down.

By our count he's already
moved at least five times.

There's no plan to it.

Worricker's moving zigzag.

His brain's cotton wool.

He's just a rat on a map.

And when we get him?

What?

I mean when
we've caught him.

Have you thought
about that?

Do you have any serious idea
of what we then do with him?

And the girlfriend?

I've thought about it.

Good, because that's
the next stage.

Alec, you're getting this
out of proportion.

No, getting him's
the easy bit.

It's what we
do with him then.

What do you think?

Pretty nice.

You'd better
enjoy it.

Why?

How many more flats
do we have?

None.

Well, don't look at me.

By my reckoning,
wiesbaden's our fourth.

You never could count--
tenth.

You're including hotels.

Yeah, how could I forget?

And we're running out of money.

Great.

So can we go home?

(chuckles)

Brian, I've got an
unscheduled meeting.

I want somewhere secure.

Not in your
own office?

I said.

There's a room
in the basement.

Come on, then.

I need to be
left on my own.

It's national
security.

It's kind of you
to make time for me.

I wanted to see you
because I'm deeply concerned.

Have you seen this?

Tell me about it.

I know security is
no longer your remit...

I still get to see a lot
of high-grade intelligence.

It passes across my desk.

Yes, that's at
my insistence.

Is it really?
Yes.

I didn't know that.
Well, it is.

I believe it's
important in government

That the most
sensitive material

Is always seen by more
than one pair of eyes.

You'll have to explain.

The prime minister's judgment
has always been faultless.

It certainly has.

Don't get me wrong.

He's a man who's called
every major issue

Of the last ten
years correctly.

And you're close to him.

I am, I'm very close;
I owe him a great deal.

He made you acting head
of the service.

More than that,
he protected you...

...When you most
needed protecting.

I'm in his debt.
But?

But it's also healthy
for government

If there's a little air,
a little ventilation

Around important
decisions.

That way things
don't get cramped.

I don't know
if you heard

About a murder
in the caribbean

A few months ago.

Yes, I think I heard
something about it.

A man with
a strawberry mark.

That's him.
Yes, I saw a picture.

But to be honest,
it hasn't been my priority.

I'm sure.

I've had problems
of my own--

Well, of course, we may be
able to help you there.

Sorry, help me?

I mean, we may be able
to give you information

You may not have
about your husband.

Stuff you don't know.

What sort of stuff?

Go on.

What you were saying
about the murder.

Have you heard
of the bridge,

The prime minister's plan
to continue statesmanship

Beyond his formal period
of elected office?

Yes, I've heard of it.

Well, it was one of the donors
to that project that was killed.

Do we know who by?

And we've had some
questions recently

About the project's
financing.

Its financing?
Yes.

How it's financed?

Forgive me, but I'm going
to ask a question,

Because time is short.

Oh, by all means.

It's this-- what's the subject
of this meeting?

What's the subject?

Yes, give me a headline.

Say I'm going home this evening
in the car, or in the bath,

And I think "I met jill tankard
today, and we talked about..."

What?

What did we talk about?

What was the subject?

I've come in to
open up a channel.

What sort of channel?

A channel of communication.

To flag up potential trouble.

It seems to me any trouble
you're talking of isn't for me,

It's for alec.

I think it may be.

Frankly, jill, what you're
saying doesn't add up to much.

Doesn't it?

I don't think so.
Why not?

Because what's the beef here?

In his eagerness for a life
beyond downing street,

The prime minister may have
accidentally befriended

Some dubious characters.

Crooks.

What he'll do when he
leaves government isn't strictly

A matter for the government.

Isn't it? Maybe not.

But if people find
out about it--

And this reference
is the first sign--

Then we may
enter rough water.

And in rough water it'll be
to your personal advantage

To be briefed about
what's coming up

Before it actually happens.

Okay.

And another thing.

Yes?
The cia's got a new boss.

How does that affect us?

He wants to draw a line
under the excesses

Of the last ten years.

Private contractors ripping off
the american public.

And that's been bad news

For a couple of the prime
minister's friends.

Tell me one thing.

Is johnny worricker
mixed up in this?

Of course.

And is he still
on the loose?

He's in germany.

He was in switzerland

With a former
intelligence officer.

A woman?

We have real hopes
of bringing him home.

Very-- we nearly had him
this morning.

An agent was out running.
But?

We lost them.

How?

Incompetence.

So...

...Meanwhile, you're offering me
an inside track.

You have it.

For what reason?

For the obvious reason.

Because you're beasley's
natural successor.

Hardly.

Not at the moment I'm not.

Not while my husband's
all over the papers.

We can deal with that.

You can deal with the british
press in full cry?

I don't see why not.

At mi5 we've never had
any problem with the press.

Really?

Politics is fair game.

National security isn't.

They're like all bullies-- they
don't like being bullied back.

My whole point--
the closer you get to us,

The easier your life will be.

If I agree to this channel,
what's going to happen?

I'm going to call you,
we're going to meet.

Where?
In this room.

When?
Whenever we need to.

One thing-- do your colleagues
know what you're doing?

No.

Do yours?

Here.

I got you these-- herrings.

The ones you like.
Your favorites.

I'm going to make a salad.

Okay.

I'm going to go for a walk.

After lunch?

Yeah.

Do you want me
to come with you?

Great idea--
and double the risk.

I got you this.

It's at the local museum.

From raphael to dali.

It started last month.

It's not too late to join.

Aren't you interested?

Well, of course
I'm interested.

Well?

I started one art class
at lausanne.

I started another in heidelberg.

I'm tired of starting things
I don't get to finish.

Margot, we both know the rules.

Keep our minds active.

Exactly.

Keep doing things.

Oh, god.

Is that your idea
of making a salad?

Sorry?

Here.

Can't I send you on a
salad-making course?

That'll keep your mind active.

We can retire and grow lettuces
in suffolk and you can practice.

This is all an attempt
to break us.

Think of it that way.

We're feeling like prisoners.

That's how they want us to feel.

And do we have to stay
relentlessly cheerful

All the time?

Once or twice,
can't we be moody?

You can be moody.

Gherkins.

Another thing you like.

"essiggurke speziell
fur feinschmecker."

I remember one thing
about spying.

What's that,
what do you remember?

What do I remember?

Spies work alone.

(phone ringing)

Margot: (on phone):
Julianne?

Yes?

It's margot.

Hey-- where are you now?

Don't tell me.

Is everything all right?

Yes, it's fine.

I haven't heard from dad
for weeks.

Well, no.

He can't call you--
he's frightened.

And I shouldn't--
I couldn't resist.

It's kind of you.

Don't be silly.

I'm glad one of you cares.

We both care.

Its just johnny's in
an impossible position.

He's been in impossible
positions since the day

I was born.

He thrives on them.

How big are you?

I'm big.

I'm due in a couple of months.

How's it going with jez?

Oh, day by day.

Life with a dj-- gets in
when I'm getting up.

You're living together?

Almost, not quite.

Otherwise?

I'm superstitious.

I don't quite dare.

It does feel like this time
I fell on my feet.

I just don't want
to push it too far.

It's lovely to hear
your voice, julianne.

I'll call you again.

I don't know when,
but I will.

Margot?

Take care of yourself.

(speaking german)

Freddy:
What?

Belinda:
Seen this?

You know who wrote it?

I have a strange feeling
she's been talking

To our brothers
in millbank.

How do you know that?

I don't--
I sense it.

How?
That's how she came to us.

From the bbc, remember?

She broke that
jake pierpan story.

The peacenik with
the drippy sister.

Have you ever asked yourself
why the sainted allegra

Got that story?

Or more interesting,
why did they give it to her?

Maybe she's just a virgin
who got lucky.

Yeah, right.

I wonder, would you
take her out for a drink?

If they're using us, let's
see if we can use them.

All right,
let's get going.

Oh, ted, one thing--
the diary story.

Scan the internet
to see if it spreads.

Do it yourself--
no one's to know.

Yes, sir.

Sorry, I thought you
said to ignore it.

Well, no, well,
we are ignoring it.

I also want you
to keep me informed.

You're back.

Nice walk?

Yes.

Sweet town, isn't it?

Yeah, very sweet.

Bath, only in germany,
and more genteel.

I didn't know what you wanted
to do this evening.

What do you want to do?

You could go
to a movie.

Do you want me to cook supper?

You don't have to entertain me,
you know.

Yeah, I know.

I was two years in belfast--
never spoke to a soul, remember?

I'm perfectly happy
being unhappy, if you know

What I mean.

You're very unfair.

Unfair? How?

About my cooking.

Oh.

Years ago, remember?

I made you a carbonara.

How could I forget?

You made me a milanese.

I'll make you another.

They were good times.

They are good times.

When we move,
we're going to move so fast

You're not going to believe it.

Oh, I think I will.

(loud music playing)

How kind, thank you.

You're the first person at the
office even to admit I exist.

It's a newspaper--
you'll get used to it.

Yeah.

Editor's something, though,
isn't she?

You only have power
if you don't give a bugger.

Belinda doesn't give a bugger.

That's what
makes her special.

When politicians ask her to
lunch, she doesn't go.

Let's face it-- you can
only do a job properly

If you're not frightened
to lose it.

Are you trying
to tell me something?

No, I'm trying to ask you
something.

What?

What are you asking?

Whether you work
for the security service.

Or whether your boyfriend does.

If I have a boyfriend.

Whether you've been
planted on us.

Is this a serious question?

Like that story this morning.

What about it?

Where did you get it?

It's not a bed thing, is it?

One of two
possibilities--

A bed thing or
a family thing.

I'm going to lay
a thousand to one it's family.

Why?

Because when a journalist
goes out on a limb,

It's always family.

Daddy works in intelligence,
does he?

No.

Is he with the dumb ones
in millbank

Or the clever ones in vauxhall?

And I'm not out on a limb.

What are you planning to do
with the story?

I'm not sure--
I haven't decided.

You haven't decided?

Okay.

You don't spell it out.

You leave it for the
reader to join the dots.

But you're implying
the prime minister takes money

From dodgy businessmen
who fall in the sea

In mysterious circumstances,
and you haven't decided?

What does the look mean?

I'm trying to work out
if you're a great deal stupider

Than you appear,
or a great deal cleverer.

(phone rings)

Hello?

Allegra?

Rollo.

Are you home?

Yes.

You'll find something
which moves the story on.

It would be great

If it can go in tonight.

Rollo?

Yeah?

I'm getting frightened.

People are asking questions.
What people?

The editor sent a journalist
to take me out for a drink.

Well, that's great,
that's exactly what we want,
who did she send?

Freddy lagarde.

Oh, freddy.

Did he take your virtue?

For a pinot grigio?

People have done it for less.

One thing-- get a new phone.

As from this morning,
your name is out there.

Always assume

Someone is listening--
and allegra?

Yes?

With a bit of luck, there's
going to be a lot more of this.

Interviewer (on tv):
You've endured
weeks of headlines.

Do you really believe
you can hold on

As deputy prime minister?

To be honest, I see no reason
I shouldn't.

I stand up for my husband;
I don't stand in for him.

Interviewer:
Yes, but if he does appear
in kiev on charges

Of bribing government
officials...

Catcheside:
It's a very different
culture from our own.

And by the way, if people
do have questions of him,

Then I'm confident bill's
going to have

Perfectly satisfactory answers.

Interviewer:
But can you be sure of that?

Do you know, as a matter
of fact, I can.

Cool?

Hip.

Well, I think this has been
a very worthwhile evening.

It's good for the cabinet to
meet informally for a change,

Kick some ideas around.

We appreciate you coming in,
anthea.

Things must be heavy
on your plate.

If things can be heavy
on a plate.

Full on my plate.

Yes, yes.

Loaded.

It's been an ordeal, hasn't it?

Yes.

But you're bearing up.

Jock:
I wonder what you feel
about the item

In the independent this morning,
prime minister.

What item was that?

I don't think I saw it, did I?

Remind me.

You didn't see it, sir.

You have time to read the
independent, do you, jock?

Justice must be
very underworked.

(laughter)

It put up a red flag.

I'm amazed no one in your office
picked up on it.

Anthea, did you see it?

No... No idea what he's
talking about.

Jock:
Well, I'll tell you
what it's about.

It says some of the people
who are financing the bridge

Have dubious backgrounds.

It seems to be implying they're
not above murdering each other.

Well, I mean, that's the way
the world is.

There's always someone who can't
wait to fling a bucket of mud.

(laughter)

Get used to it.

I'll take a look at it.

Let's get out of here.

Oh, worricker?

Okay, this is going to be
very simple.

The simpler we keep it,
the better.

It's not going to be difficult.

It's going to suit me, then,
that's what you're saying.

We pick up cars...

Okay.

...From different cities.

Okay.

This is your europcar card.

Thank you.

This is a map
of the route.

Marked it.

You return the car
as designated.

Usual drill, except
this time we stay separate.

Credit card, passport.

Ah, excellent.

Who am I this time?

You're joking.

I liked it.

Made me laugh.

And who are you,
cilla black?

You don't need to know.

By the way, I wanted to say
this, but I haven't said it.

What haven't
you said?

I wanted to tell you that
I minded it

When you looked at my phone,
when you checked my calls.

I hated that.

Well then, I won't be
doing that again.

And also, just asking,
how was my daughter?

Julianne?

Julianne's fine.

You're up.

Mm-hmm, yeah.

You okay?

I'm fine.

I was just reading this stuff
about beasley.

What a dag.

Dag?

Yeah, dag's the stuff that
hangs off the end of a sheep.

You like him that much?

I just don't like people
who invent threats to justify

Doing what they wanted to do
all along.

Look at that face-- he looks
like a russian mobster.

You don't think this country's
under threat?

It's because I take real threats
seriously that I don't want

To be blackmailed by phony ones.

Politicians who cry wolf
are the most dangerous kind.

I'm interested-- how can you
know so much about it?

I'm interested--
how can you not?

Sometimes I feel I really
don't know anything about you.

Don't you?

No-- no, I don't.

But I'd like to.

Well, you'll have plenty of time
to find out.

(speaking german)

Here's the phone.

Danke schoen.

Good luck.

(phone rings)

I hope you're moving.

We are; I just said
goodbye to her.

As a matter of interest,
who told you today was the day

To get going?

Because, believe it or not,
I still have some friends.

I'm amazed.

Johnny, you'd be even
more amazed if you knew

How many people in millbank
are rooting for you.

Good afternoon, I believe
you may have a car for me.

Do you speak english?
We do.

My german is rusty.

(speaking german)

Marsden, okay.

Gerry marsden.

Oh!

Do you mind?

I guessed you
were english.

Where are you going,
you don't mind me asking?

Um... Back to school.

I'm a teacher.

Where?

Where?

I was asking,
where do you teach?

I'm sorry.

I'm tired.

I need to sleep.

You're well loaded up.

Isn't that what
the continent's for?

We all love a booze cruise.

Group singing:
♪ we'll all follow the arsenal
on to victory, hey ♪

♪ we'll all follow
the arsenal... ♪

Thank you.

Miss springfield.

Thank you.

Ah, you must be
belinda kay.

Yes, I am.

How kind of you
to see me.

How are you?

And who are you?

I'm the man
who telephoned.

Yes, of course
you are.

24 bottles of wine.

Thank you.

How thoughtful.

Because I'm a journalist
I must be alcoholic?

You've come from abroad?

Um, I hope you like

Bourgeuil.

Well, aren't you
the welcome guest?

Come this way.

Goodness, this is
quite imposing.

Barry:
Hey.

This is barry.

He's my boyfriend
or some such thing.

Hey.

Barry.

I was just
making some tea.

You're going to
have to hop it.

Sorry?

This is confidential.

Hop it.

You never saw this man.

He doesn't exist.

He's none too bright.

Come through.

Or perhaps you'd prefer whisky.

Not right now--
I need a clear head.

Look, first of all,
I want to thank you for all

Your paper's done already.

It's been a wonderful job.

Do you know how lonely
that makes an editor feel?

You run a story
and no one else touches it.

I'm hoping we
can change that.

People have low expectations.

You'd be surprised.

Beasley's feathering his nest,
so what?

He's got disreputable friends,
so?

He's a politician.

I'm hoping to make the story a
little more specific than that.

A newspaper's not
a blog, you know.

I know that.

It's not just
whatever you think,

Or whatever anyone
happens to tell you.

There are editorial protocols.

You ever heard of them?

Of course-- I'm hoping
to satisfy those.

And somehow you're going
to do that without telling me

Your name?

Unlikely.

The girl's a plant, isn't she?

No, I don't think so,
if you mean allegra.

The one with the damask cheek.

She of the butter-wouldn't-melt
brigade.

Allegra isn't a plant,
she's a conduit.

As a matter of fact, she's the
niece of a colleague of mine.

Well, there you are.

That's England--
one big family.

And I suppose now
she's served her purpose,

It's time to move on to me.

All right, go ahead.

Make your pitch.

Okay.

I don't know much you know about
britain's intelligence service.

Funny, I had a feeling
you might start there.

Well, the last ten years
have been kind of bumpy.

It used to be very clear
who the enemy was,

And so also it was
clear what the job was.

And then?
And then we got caught out.

Trouble came from
an unexpected direction.

Or rather it started coming
from every direction.

Suddenly we were told
we were meant to be fighting

A worldwide movement.

Let's just say we got a bit
careless about distinguishing

Between people who would like
to do terrible things

And people who were
actually doing them.

We became indiscriminate
about the methods we used.

It was dog eat dog.

The only problem is,
we're not dogs.

Is "indiscriminate methods"
a euphemism for torture?

Torture's just part
of an apparatus--

An apparatus of bad practice

And which I don't believe is
helping anyone, least of all us.

Meanwhile, politicians
want to cut corners.

Sure.

Alec beasley's been trying
to reorganize the service.

Reorganize it?
And bypass it.

His mind's made up,
and the facts don't bother him.

Well, that's his
right, isn't it?

After all, he won
a couple of elections.

Because people
like his strength.

He has a mandate--
that is democracy.

And speaking for myself,
I have a great deal more faith

In someone I've elected
than some disgruntled

Intelligence officer-- I'm
assuming that's what you are--

Who arrives at my house
with two cases of wine

And an outsize grievance.

I'm too young,

But you may remember a prime
minister called harold wilson.

I do remember him.

Didn't the security services
spend a great deal of effort

Trying to get rid of him?

I don't think
that's ever been proved.

I didn't ask if it was proved--
I asked if it were true.

And I'm not trying
to get rid of beasley.

I'm trying to put the facts
in front of the public.

You're a very plausible fellow,
aren't you,

Whatever your name is.

Remember, I'm a rat catcher
myself.

It takes one to know one.

And everything you say
stinks to high heaven.

Tell me why.

No editor likes to be used.

You may be burning to bring down
a prime minister, but I'm not.

That's not my intention.

All I'm trying to do
is throw a little light

On some of his activities.

Oh, I see.

This is assisted killing, is it?

You put the pill in the hand but
you don't put it in the mouth.

I mean, just one more question:
Aren't you rather overstretching

Your remit?

I thought you were meant
to gather secrets,

Not give them away.

So far, I don't remember
giving you any secrets.

No, everything you've been told
has been on the public record.

Only just like most
newspapers nowadays

You've lacked the diligence
to go out and find it.

Or maybe the motivation?

All right, these
are the facts.

Great.

Let's hear them.

The prime minister is linked
to a series of interlocking

Charities which are partly
financed by a firm

Called gladstone.

Gladstone has built
an international complex

Of detention camps
which don't officially exist,

And for which they've therefore
been able

To overcharge.

Now you're telling
me something new.

The american government has put
pressure on them to get

Some of its money back--
a great deal of pressure.

Well, that's something you're
going to have to look into.

Okay.

That's an interesting story.

I'm sure we'll want to cover it.

We all love
laughing at the yanks.

But I still don't see how
it reflects on alec beasley.

Don't you?
No.

I'll tell you.

But if I do, I'll be
crossing a line.

What sort of a line?

The secret line.

I need to know
you're at peace with that.

Shouldn't that question
be directed at you?

Very well.

It's going to be hard to unpick,
because beasley's affairs

Are tangled up in companies
owned by stirling rogers.

But I can promise you somewhere
there's a paper trail

Which leads directly back
from the building of the camps

To the prime minister's
own personal finances.

Really?

Yeah.

I wonder.

Would you be interested
in staying to eat?

(phone rings)

Amber (on phone):
Miss tankard?

Yes?

It's amber page.

We've got margot.

How?

Luck, pure luck.

One of our people
got on a train at frankfurt.

He was on holiday--
he wasn't even working.

Listen, here's the good news.

She's heading home.

Where is she?

She's getting in
at stansted from paris.

And we've got people waiting?

They're in place.

And him?

No, he's not with her.

But it's all right.

One thing I can promise is

He won't be without her
for very long.

Keep in touch.

(phone ringing)

Man:
Amber.

Yeah?

It's jez.

Jez, where are you?

I'm alone; I haven't got long.

Julianne's forgotten her phone.

And?

You remember that call,
the one from margot?

Of course, last week.

That's it.

Unidentified caller?

Yeah, the office has broken it.

You've got margot's number?

We do.

Jez, I've got good news.

We've also got margot tyrell
in person.

(door closes)

She's heading back to the uk.

Good, then we're in business.

Text me that number.

Hold on, I have to go.

Jez?

Are you awake?

Ah, good.

Welcome to barry's
running buffet.

He's perfect,
isn't he?

Heaven to live with.

We lack for nothing.

Thank you, barry.

My pleasure.

I'm afraid you're going
to have to leave us again.

The coriander goes
with the chicken,

And the dressing goes
with the rocket.

Don't worry,
we'll manage.

Enjoy.

(door closes)

You have everything.

And you?

Friends and family?

None of my business,
but you seem rather sad.

I'm not sad.

It's just...

I suppose I was doing
a job I loved

And now it's been taken away.

You're an editor.

I imagine it's pretty good fun.

And you were a spy.

Correct.

And you're wondering,

"if I'm not a spy,
then what am I?"

Shall we get back
to the matter in hand?

There's a rule of thumb
for this kind of campaign.

What do they say?

"it's never the crime,
it's the cover-up."

Well, there isn't
a cover-up yet.

We haven't got that far.

Right, so we have
to force him into one.

We have to ask him questions
which he can't answer.

Do you know what
those questions are?

The other rule is,

As you say,
a campaign isn't a campaign

If it's only been picked up
by one paper.

Well, no one else is going
to touch it until they have to.

Well, then we'd better make sure
the questions are good.

(pop music playing)

Nice, guys.

How nice to meet you.

We were at cambridge

Goodness.
Yes, oh, yes.

Johnny was a very real loss

Of course you can.

Sorry, but I've got

We've been told tomorrow,

The charges

Dropped?

All of them?

The ukrainian court has decided

It's not in the public interest
to proceed.

Meaning what?

Meaning someone's done a deal?

I guess.

What sort of deal?

A trade deal?

What sort of trade?

What is it always?

Weapons, of course.

Arms.

It's always arms.

With one bound,
I'm free.

Jill?

Yes?

We need to meet urgently.

Yes, of course.

You know what's happening
to bill?

I told you, didn't I?

Stick close to us.

I need to be clear.

Is this your doing?

Anthea, can I say something?

It's one thing to go around
saying what you want.

The test comes

When you're actually given
the chance to get it.

That's when you're tested.

When they wanted to get rid
of margaret thatcher,

John major got toothache so he
didn't have to answer his phone.

A week later,
he was prime minister.

How are your teeth?

Just beginning to ache.

Good, I'm glad to hear it.

(sighs)

You see him often?

When he's in trouble.

But you know
how johnny is.

Once you're his friend,
you're his friend forever.

He's loyal above all things.

But you know that.

Yes.

We were together
a long time.

He wasn't threatened by me.

The stronger I was,
the more he liked it.

That's rare.

Good for him.

You know him well?

I helped him through
some difficult days.

When he was a student,

He loved the idea of faith,
the life of the church.

So someone had to point out
that he didn't actually believe.

(laughs)

And that was you?

Mm-hmm.

And he didn't?

No.

He wanted to,
more than anything.

But sadly, that's
not the same thing.

Thank you.

No, thank you.

Barry, good night.

(birds chirping

(shoes squeaking against floor)

(grunting)

Come on, stirling.

Your backhand's
normally terrific.

What the hell's going on?

My mind's elsewhere, sorry.

I need you
to give me a game.

Do you want
to play properly?

Because if you don't want
to play properly,

There's no point in playing.

Oh, come on, stirling,
you can do better than that.

All right,

You know what this is.

No, I don't.

You bloody well do.

Ah, it's that again, is it?

I've reached a decision.

Alec, I'm roadkill.

I don't mean a thing.

Lose me,
you'd lose nothing.

Think-- the press are after us.

It's only a question of time...
So I issue a statement.

No.
It's simple.

"everything I've done,
I've done in good faith.

"my only interest
has been in safeguarding

The prime minister's legacy."

Stirling, no.

However, unknown to you--

And this is
the crucial part--

Unknown to you,

I took money from certain people
in the states.

No!

But why not?
It's a clean cut!

You know what it sounds like.

Unknown to me,
you took dodgy money,

And I'm so stupid
I didn't even know.

Alec, you know
where this is going.

No, I don't.

It's going where every

Political scandal
always goes.

The press doesn't give a fuck
about the issues--

They just want a kill.

Oh, clearly.

Well, here I am.

I'm offering myself.

No.

And for one
very good reason:

If I go, the
screaming's over.

But it doesn't
work like that.

Then how does it work?

If you give them fresh blood,
then they always want more.

Now, a week ago you told
me this wasn't important.

A week ago it wasn't!

Jesus.

Everything I do,
I do for my country.

Oh, and that makes it
all right?

What did you say?

Nothing.

Stirling,
you going weak on me?

No.

You going soft?

I'm the only person who
takes this threat seriously.

If you saw the files,
if you saw the evidence...

Now, I can't show you
the stuff that I'm seeing,

But the intelligence
is frightening.

It is.

And people have a choice:
Help me or help them.

And now we're being told
keep our hands

Tied behind our backs
while they kick our lights out.

"stick to the rules.

Bring on the lawyers."

Is that what you want?

No, what I want is
for you to survive.

I want you to be prime minister
at this time next week.

That's what I want.

No, they won't get me.

I'm ahead of them.

Always have been,
always will be.

Finch:
I'm sorry, sir.

You really are needed.

That's the whole point,
do you see?

They want both things.

Like children, they need me
and they resent me.

Both things.

Before you do anything,
speak to me first.

Ted.

Belinda (on television):
Well, the situation
is quiet clear.

Everybody knows
what's going on.

The prime minister has been
evading our questions.

We have to conclude he's not
answering because he can't.

There are five questions
we've asked the prime minister

That he has to answer.

If he can't answer them,
he should say so,

And he should say so now.

If he can and there's
a simple explanation,

Then no one is going to be
happier than the independent.

(door opens)

So what do you think?

He's wounded.

Have you seen
the five questions?

I have.

"has the prime minister met
with church and bethwaite?

"did the prime minister
know the murdered man?

"did the prime minister know of
their donations to the bridge?

"was the prime minister aware

"of a network of illegal
detention centers

"built by gladstone?

"has the prime minister
benefited personally

From gladstone?"

They're not bad questions.

Has he said anything
in private, in cabinet?

He's refusing on the grounds
of national security.

(scoffs)

It's not going to wash.

Are you sure?

Certain.

I've known from the start,

From the minute I first
saw the evidence.

I am going to have
to rally round him publicly.

If you feel it's necessary.

I do, very much so.

Be careful.

Careful of what?
Your own future.

Meaning?

Hostages to fortune,

How everything will look
in a week.

How's bill?

He's fine.

You're not going
to divorce?

I'm not, not yet.

Good-- you shouldn't.

I won't.

Good.

Why do you ask?

What's that phrase about
getting your ducks in a row?

I'll take one more question.

I hope I've already
made everything clear.

I've returned all money
received from gladstone,

And I have personally
resigned from the foundation

To leave its reputation
unharmed.

At all times, alec beasley
has been separated

From the day to day activities
of the bridge, and any...

He shouldn't
have done it.

He didn't need to.

He said he was going
to talk to me first.

I don't know, perhaps he found
the pressure unbearable.

Pressure?

Pressure is like whiplash--
it doesn't exist.

Rogers:
I'm not in any way

Admitting liability,
or even error.

I want to be clear
about that.

I've made my decision.

We still need to find worricker.

Until we find him,
we're not out of this yet.

It's eerie.

It's quiet, yes.

Can we turn on the news?

We heard it
an hour ago.

So?

I wouldn't do that.

Why not?

Because it's the road
to destruction.

You always
look out for me.

Always.

Where's bernard?

He's saying matins.

No doubt alone.

He doesn't mind.

He's talking to god--
he doesn't care

If anyone's listening.

Why are you smiling?

I know you better
than anyone knows you, johnny.

I know where you're heading.

I can see your endgame.

(phone rings)

Rollo?

He's gone.

Who's gone?

Stirling rogers.

Rogers has gone.
What happened?

He's giving a press conference

Saying that whole thing
was his fault.

Better still, he's saying
the prime minister knew nothing.

He's walking into the trap,
it appears.

You trust it?
You think we've got him?

Let's hope so.

(phone rings)

Margot, don't touch it.

I've got to go.

You don't know
who it's from.

It's not safe--
leave it!

We should have
destroyed it!

I need to see you,
desperately.

Are you in the country?

Something terrible's happened.

Julianne, is the baby all right?

Yes, yes, but can you tell dad

I need to see him?

Yes, of course I will.

And he must call immediately
before you get here.

Promise me.

Don't worry,
we're on our way.

See you soon.

Okay, we're in business,
it's good.

I think we've got them.

Where are they?

We've got a signal.

I'll know more in a minute,
but it seems to be kent.

Johnny, we have to go,
julianne says it's serious.

Hold on a minute,
give me time to think.

There is no time to think.

She said, "can you tell dad
I need to see him?"

Margot, we need
to be careful.

Johnny, it's your daughter!

I'm concerned that the phone
isn't safe!

Oh, fuck the phone!

We can't go together.

What difference does it make?

When julianne calls,
you go.

Do you have a problem
with that?

How long have you been
working on this?

Four months.

Just the four?

Exactly.

Okay, good.

Here we go.

Here's the location.

Let's get going.

Rogers (on tv):
I vehemently reject
all allegations.

But I don't understand.

If you're innocent
of everything,

Why do you have to resign?

(laughter)

Yeah?

Finally, we've got them again.

But he's coming into town
to see his daughter.

Then please baby them in.

I don't want anyone
moving towards them.

I've been working on this
for months.

I know.

I thought the idea was
we were trying to catch them.

We are, but don't detain them.

Keep them under surveillance.

Keep your distance--
that's an order.

Nobody's to go near them
until they get an order from me.

I don't believe this.

Rogers (on tv):
If there was any offense,

It's just from caring too much.

Julianne.

Margot.

You okay?

You were right.

You were right
to call us.

It's jez.

How do you know?

I've suspected for weeks.

Well then why didn't
you tell me?

Why didn't I tell you?

Why do you think?

Because you never ring!

And also, sorry,
I don't want to live like that,

Being suspicious
of everyone.

Do I ever get a life
that's not about you?

"what does your father do?"

"oh, I can't say,
he's in the civil service."

As long as I can remember.

"what's dad doing?"

"don't know, can't say."

You ruined mom's life.

You ruin the life
of everyone you're close to.

I was in love with him!

You've never known
what that means.

Human drama.

She doesn't seem happy.

He did really work
as a dj?

He did really play
in the evenings?

Yes.

Everything else
was a lie.

Like he said he'd be here
for the birth.

Julianne...
Which he won't.

And never had any
intention of being.

Okay.

Right from the start!

Julianne...
Just leave me.

Please...

Every time she moves,

She gets closer to us.

Can you hear anything?

No.

Lip read.

Don't come near me.

Don't touch me.

And then, "when she's calm,
I'll have dealt with her."

That's not fair.

Why don't you just say,

"julianne, I'm sorry,
this is my fault?"

Julianne, I know
it's my fault.

Good!

Why do you think
I'm in agony?

Oh.

Oh, you're in agony?

Oh, really?

Great, and for how long?

He's standing there.

Why can't we move in?

(johnny's phone ringing)

Can anyone tell me
what's going on?

Yeah?

Where are you?

I'm in london.

I can't explain,
it's a mess.

Sorry, comrade, but we need
to jump five stages.

I've just had
a very interesting call.

Who from?

You need to call it,
because he's ahead of us.

He's nine miles ahead.

Is this who I think it is?

10 downing street.

My name is worricker.

I think you'll find
if you tell him,

The prime minister will want
to have a word with me.

What name again?

Johnny worricker.

Hold on, will you, please?

Mr. Finch, there's a man on the
line called johnny worricker.

Yes, thank you,
please put him through.

Hello, who am I speaking to?

Is that you, mr. Worricker?

Yes.

Would like you to come in
immediately.

Come in?

To downing street.

Good.

Are you far away?

Not at all.

Less than a minute.

Just one thing.

Could you come in the back?

My name is johnny worricker.

I'm expected.

Okay, sir.

(knocking)

Ah.

Here you are at last.

Prime minister.

The missing piece
of the jigsaw.

You can leave us.

How was your spell
as an émigré?

Disconcerting.

I'm sure.

I needed to see you
one more time.

Me too.

Please.

We had a good talk
in cambridge six months ago.

But then you went off

And did the very opposite
of what I asked.

You defied me.

Sir, if I may...

I accept in the circumstances
that I'm fair game.

Of course.

But my daughter's flat
is being bugged.

An mi5 operative
seduced her

When she was already
pregnant.

My daughter
isn't fair game.

Go after me,
don't go after her.

I agree.

I'm sorry?

You're right--
mutual hysteria.

Isn't it time
it was defused?

I'll tell you
what I've been thinking:

I've accomplished pretty much
all I set out to do.

We've modernized the country

And we may even
have alerted its people

To some of the dangers
they face.

I don't understand.

Are you resigning?

You're not getting my scalp,
if that's what you hope.

I'm not moving out,
I'm moving up.

It's iran we have
to deal with now.

And I'm not fussy
about what platform I work from.

Perhaps a sympathetic american
president means more to me

Than an ambivalent
british electorate.

You're planning to move on
to another job?

Correct.
What job is that?

Consul-general to iran.

I run the peace talks.

Peace?

Well...

Preferably peace.

Answering to whom?

Financed by the americans,

But given cover by the u.N.

Forgive me, I'm not sure
you're going to be able

To cut free as easily as that.

Aren't you?
No.

Is that a threat?

Not at all.

Tell me, are you
running a campaign?

Because that's how it looks.

A single intelligence officer
determined to stop me.

What are you?

A loose cannon?

A traitor?

Well then,
what are you doing?

Judiciously pointing out
the dangers.

Such as?

There's a new boss
at the cia.

Yes, you're right.

With new plans.

Wants to make a clean break.

The president's already had
a word with him.

I think you'll find that
any future cia investigations

Into private contractors

Will get bogged down
pretty quickly.

People don't like
investigating each other

Because they are aware
that later,

They may be investigated
themselves.

If you talk
to the president,

You'll find he's pretty clear
on the subject.

After all, one day he's going
to be an ex-president too.

And here?
In the uk?

You don't think
you face problems here?

I don't see any.

My favored successor
is hardly likely

To waste her first hundred days
digging too deeply

Into the financial affairs
of the bridge.

To what end?

Anthea's experiencing a period
of personal good fortune.

Maybe you read about it?

When it comes
to sleeping dogs,

Anthea's the kind
who'll let them lie.

What is it they say?

"the establishment always wins."

You should know that.

You're a distinguished member
of the establishment yourself.

What did you think
we were going to do?

Bleach you?

We don't bleach people
in England.

No home.

No bank account.

No security.

No way of life,
100% surveillance.

You know the drill.

You've done it to others,
now we'll do it to you.

What are you offering?

Good question.

An amnesty?

Johnny...

In the last few years,

The government moved
at a certain speed

Because we faced
an overwhelming threat.

This is the real world.

There's always a tension
between aims and means.

Maybe even a contradiction.

I'll live with that.

The question is: Can you?

We need your silence.

I'm to be silent
about lawlessness?

Permanently.

And guaranteed.

You've got to think
what that means.

I've thought about it
a great deal.

You make a deal,

You go back on it.

In my world,
you only do that once.

Now, if you will forgive me,
I have to go to the palace.

I'd offer you a lift,

But you might be
conspicuous.

And anyway, I imagine
you have to report

To that crapulous scot
in the park.

I don't report to him.

No?

You say you'd like
your daughter left alone.

I would.

And your girlfriend too,
I should think.

She's a very interesting
woman, isn't she?

This one really is something
more than run of the mill.

You're a lucky man,
aren't you?

You never seem to suffer
for your mistakes.

What a gift.

We're both cats
who fall on our feet.

Ted!

Mr. Worricker's leaving.

We won't be seeing him again.

So what's happening?

He's quitting.

Quitting?

He moves onto iran.

Promotion.

Promotion, is that what
he is calling it?

This doesn't feel
like a victory.

Why does it not feel
like a victory?

Obvious: Because I don't think
we've ever been in control.

You're to call jill tankard.

She wants to see you.

Where?

Wherever you say.

She knows I'm with you?

Seems to.

Well of course,
that fits.

All the time,
they've known everything.

Are you going to go?
I don't know.

I'm trying to get hold of
julianne; she's not answering.

Fuck!

I'm trying margot.

I left them together.

Shit!

Johnny...

Yes?

If you do see jill,
could you do me a favor?

Try and get me back in.

Welcome back.

I heard you had
a nice time with alec.

Jill.

It's a shame you two
never got close.

They always say it's difficult
if two men are too alike.

One of those boys'
love/hate things, is it?

It's happening now.

Even as we speak.

What is?

He's seeing the queen.

You must be pleased.

Why?

Well, wasn't it your idea

To bring him down?

Interesting
you should say that.

As a matter of fact, jill,
I rather thought it was yours.

Waitress:
Mr. Worricker!

Ah.

We haven't seen you
for such a long time.

I've missed you too.

We still have a bottle
of scotch in the back.

Do you mind fetching it?

I tell you, I had my suspicions
for quite a long time.

I noticed things
were strangely easy.

As if our paths
were being smoothed.

I mean, the choice
of amber page...

Never our most brilliant agent,
was she?

She did the job.

Yeah, badly.

Amber did her best.

Yes, that's what I mean.

And that business
in kiev...

Kiev, yes.

Had your fingerprints
all over it.

You think so?
You liked that, did you?

I liked it.

I wasn't sure why beasley
had agreed to it.

It wasn't in his interest.

I didn't ask beasley;
I didn't need to.

How did you do that?

I've been a long time
in whitehall, remember?

I'm a data bank, johnny.

And please, don't make this out
to be some sort of coup.

Why? Wasn't it?

No, I wouldn't dream

Of messing
with the electorate's wishes.

That's way above my pay grade.

What would you call it, then?

All I did was make
some preparations.

That's all I did
for an orderly handover.

As any good democrat would.

That's very good.

Thank you.

I smoothed the way.

I made what would have been
difficult easy.

What I don't understand:
Why did you do it?

Beasley was on your side.

Your whole life,
you owe him everything.

He was the one
that put you in place.

Why did I do it?

Yes.

Simple.

Same reason as you.

Johnny, I saw the evidence.

When I saw the evidence,
I knew he was finished.

Ah, thank you.

You're very kind.

It belonged to mr. Baron.

We didn't know
what to do with it.

We all loved mr. Baron.

I'll look after it,
thank you.

I miss him.

We all miss him.

Looking back at the events
of the past few years,

I don't think either of us
has been wholly right or wrong.

Life doesn't work like that,
does it?

I can see
your point of view

And I suspect that
you can see mine.

You know what I want
for you?

I've got a fair idea.

You're the best intelligence
analyst I ever met.

And I'm the best administrator.

The new prime minister's
coming in with warm feelings

Towards the intelligence
services.

You've made sure of that.

Yes.

After what I've done for her,

These are going
to be golden years.

We get everything we want.

I'd like you to join me.

You're forgetting,
I've got other obligations.

People depend on me.

What sort of people?

My daughter.

I can promise,
come back to work

And she won't be
troubled again.

Rollo.

Well, I'm sure
we can bring him

Back into the fucking fold.

And most important of all,
there's margot.

Ah yes, margot.

You hugging that scotch
to yourself?

Hasn't worked out,
has it, johnny?

What makes you say that?

Oh, come on.

I mean, give us
some credit please.

We are professionals.

You love falling in love,
don't you?

Just not so good
at being in it.

Come back to millbank
and you're going to be able

To make her a very
attractive offer.

What offer is that?

For the rest of her life,
she's going to be able

To walk down the street
and not look behind her.

That's not nothing, johnny.

I have a feeling
she's going to take it.

You don't know her.

Oh, I think I do.

I am going to keep
this statement brief.

I've always said that
I would leave office

At a time of my own choosing

And only when I had finished
the job I was elected to do.

This is that time.

I leave you strong
and I leave you secure.

(cheering)

Congratulations!

You just brought down
a government.

Did I really?

I know someone did,
but I'm not sure who.

Any mp will tell you that

The most important people
in their life

Are the people who elect them.

Shall we go out and celebrate?

All right.

I'll finish the story,
then yes,

Let's go and get drunk.

(sighs)

(door opens)

What are you doing?

I was going
to leave you a note.

What kind of note?

A goodbye note.

You knew it was coming.

I feared it,
but I didn't know.

Where's julianne?

She's at the hospital.

What?
It's all right.

She doesn't want you to go.

All right?
Why is it all right?

Because her mother's with her.

It's going to be
a long labor.

Can I call?

No.

She's still angry.

She says you can call
in the morning.

Okay.

Then I will.

And you?

Where are you heading?

Oh.

A start-up in hong kong.

Really?

Yeah.

Well, that's a long way.

Yeah, well I've been approached.

A guy I knew through stirling.

He wants to sell clothes
on the internet.

He sees a gap in the market.

Does he have
a lot of money?

Not a penny.

That's why he needs
somebody smart.

Margot, I made you
a lot of promises

Back in turks and caicos.

I want to keep them.

Say the word and I will.

I knew when it came down to it

You'd always want
to go back to work.

What, I just walk away
from everything, do I?

Is that the right
thing to do?

I don't think so.

These days,
everyone feels powerless.

I understand that.

That's how they
want you to feel.

But if we don't fight,
who will?

Johnny, you know these people.

They slide around,
they have nothing solid.

For them, it's simply
one day to the next.

They believe what they have to,

And then when the time comes,
they believe something else.

For them,
nothing is ever at stake.

Look, I know what you're saying,
but even so,

If it's what you want,
I can get you back in.

I've watched you
the last few months.

You're brilliant at it.

You love it.

Yes.

But I love you more.

It was quite an adventure,
wasn't it?

Yeah.

I wouldn't
have missed it.

Me neither.

I wish we'd done more.

Oh, johnny.

We did plenty.

I'm going in the morning.

Why don't you just leave?

I'll miss you.

Yes.

I'll miss you too.

(door closes)

(lively jazz music playing)

All right?

(groaning)

There, there...

Okay, okay...

(groaning)

(yelling in pain)

(reporters shouting)

I just want to say,
it's far too early for me

To be making any decision
about the future.

I'm part of a family and I want
to talk to my family first.

Meanwhile, let's remember
alec beasley.

It's his night.

Let's leave it with him.

(yelling in pain)

Well done.

Big one now, big one...

(baby crying)
