So, we think vortex generators should do the job.

Well. The quickest and cheapest option would be, yes,

to add some modified vortex generators,

or even sub boundary layer vgs, but...

But?

Optimization would still be severely

limited, particularly for long endurance

or low speed operations.

Or low speed operations.

So what would you recommend?

Boundary layer suction.

But this is an existing uav.

The wing space is already utilized.

Yes I know.

But if I can move the transition to

turbulence further along the wing

I can reduce the drag and more than offset the aum.

Alternatively you could rethink

the increase in payload.

Does the drone need both bombs as well as missiles?

The Americans have both on the reaper.

The Americans have both on the reaper.

So if the drone is to.

Drone is a media term.

We prefer to use "remotely piloted air systems."

If you want more than a second-rate

alteration, if you actually want to solve the

problem, this is the way you will have to go

boundary layer suction.

We need the re-design spec by

the end of the year.

You have eight weeks.

Eight weeks?

Not a problem gentlemen.

I'm part of the team too, you know remember?

Sorry. It's when they look at me like that,

it gives my adrenaline a kick.

It gives my adrenaline a kick.

Yeah well, good for you.

We made the last deadline.

We'll make this one.

But eight weeks?

Did we have a choice?

I'd say there's room to wiggle.

I don't wiggle. Especially not for them.

Anymore questions?

If you're going to work in aerospace it

seems you can't escape from the military.

I was wondering if that bothers you,

ethically speaking?

Ethically speaking?

No not at all.

None of us are outside the military-industrial

complex unless, that is you don't use the Internet.

The Internet is as much a military R&D,

as it is a promoter of knowledge.

It also promotes porn.

What do you think of porn, Dr. lethbridge?

Well I don't know if all this talk of

suction and drag has over stimulated

your adolescent brain...

But to go back to.

Yes any air-craft can be adapted for military purposes.

Yes any air-craft can be adapted for military purposes.

But I don't know, I'm not a philosopher;

I'm more interested in the beauty of flight rather

than our ability to fight.

Hi Robert, I'm going to be here till two;

So wait with the aerofoil tests till I'm back.

Thank you.

Do you need somehelp?

Oh, no thanks I've been a twit and lost my keys.

Do you want me to break into the car?

Do you want me to break into the car?

Are you serious?

No.

My dad's got a spare set he'll be here in a minute.

By the way, it was a good lecture, inspiring.

Thank you.

Really.

That edition is out of date.

Oh. Bye.

Hello.

Alex I've got the new data.

And you want me to put it in now?

Great.

Oh, no thanks. I can't.

Right. You meeting, you meeting what's his name?

Right. You meeting, you meeting what's his name?

No. What's his name and

I finished a couple of weeks ago.

He cried and said thank you after sex.

I'll make a note.

Hello.

What a coincidence?

Yeah. It's nice to meet you again.

Yeah. As long as you're not stalking me.

Yeah. As long as you're not stalking me.

Excuse me!

Excuse me! You forgot your money.

Oh my god. Thank you.

Well you must think I've got my head in the clouds.

Aeronaut. It's your job.

Did you get that new book?

The new edition?

No, no, no, it's little expensive.

Oh, well I could lend you a copy.

Give you a lift? I'm just around the corner.

Give you a lift? I'm just around the corner.

No thanks.

That's too much trouble.

Ok.

Ok I accept.

Oh I'll just be a minute.

Yeah.

Shit.

I'm a Muslim.

I'm sorry.

What?

What?

I mean about the drink.

It's OK.

You didn't know.

Also I'm a poor engineering student.

That you do know.

Not very exotic.

Well I don't see you as exotic.

You don't?

Not in the slightest.

I can belly dance. Would you like to see?

I can belly dance. Would you like to see?

No. Where do you live?

Easton. Under the motorway.

We've got Bristol city flags instead of curtains.

And where are you from?

And where are you from?

What?

Where are you from?

I've lived in Bristol all my life.

Say something to me in arabic.

Say something to me in Bristol English first.

Take your shirt off.

Take your shirt off.

Which means?

Is there anything you've just said

that should stop me from kissing you?

I'll be back in a minute.

Hello yes what can I do for you?

Excuse me, can you tell me what this says?

Let me have a look.

Sounds a bit romantic ...and complicated.

Do you know what it means?

Do you know what it means?

It's classical arabic poetry.

The hero is weeping.

No, no his wings are broken see here.

He has lost everything.

Where's it say wings?

A sandstorm destroyed his tent and his wings.

That doesn't make sense.

The sandstorm is in the shape of a woman.

It refers to this women.

She destroyed the weeping man's tent.

Let me try. I cry remembering my home and.

Let me try. I cry remembering my home and

my lover, like a storm, she broke my wings.

Yeah that makes sense.

Yeah it's a good translation.

Well it means damn, baby.

You're too much for me.

Twenty four.

You're not going to tell the other students

Yeah it is. I'll walk you home.

You want to come?

You want me to come?

I want you to come if you want to come.

Yes, yes... Just watching the telly.

Good. Ok I love you dad, I want to get

in the shower now. Bye.

In the shower now. Bye.

Ok well let's go back to structural weight

savings-we could switch to high modulus

prepregtape, alter steel hard points to cold forged

titanium, and we could consider-Frankie,

Frankie what's wrong?

I've met someone.

Well, that's, that's great isn't it?

I think so.

What's he do?

He's an engineer ...Ing student.

Right, well, if he has any thoughts on how to.

Right, well, if he has any thoughts on how to

improve the flight envelope on this project...

Is this OK?

Yeah.

Really?

Mmm hmm.

Great.

I've never had one of those before.

Shisha?

Mmm hmm.

You want to it try?

Please could you bring us a sheppan?

Of course.

Thank you.

You should try this one.

This is really good.

Is this like a tomato soup?

Yes, try it.

You both will be using it?

Yep.

Enjoy.

Thank you. Taste it.

What were you talking about with the

waitress tonight?

I... I don't remember.

I... I don't remember.

I didn't know she was working there.

Who is she?

Well she used to be my girlfriend.

In Algeria.

Are you jealous?

Fuck you.

Yes you are jealous.

I'm never fucking jealous.

Because I want you only.

Say it again.

Some in Algeria some in France.

I have a big family.

Do you go home a lot?

No.

You must miss it.

No.

It's just me and my dad.

He worked on concorde.

A long way before I can match that.

And your mother?

She died when I was young.

Car accident.

I can still remember her laugh.

�

Hey.

You're not supposed to see this.

Come to bed.

No I'm serious.

You're working on drones.

What type of payload is it?

What type of payload is it?

It's private.

Really?

Really.

And my work takes precedence over everything

and everybody.

Except for my body.

One more thing, then I join you. Ok?

Goodnight.

Goodnight.

Nice, yeah you modified the wings.

Nice, yeah you modified the wings.

Just tinkering.

I wasn't happy with it's maneuverability.

I know how you feel.

Don't give in to those vortex generators;

That Roberts a fool.

I won't and he's not.

It's still hard going.

It's meant to be hard going;

You're at the top of your game.

Well, nearly there ...how's the new boyfriend?

What?

You've got colour in Sex must be good.

Dad!

What's his name?

What's his name?

Kahil.

Kahil what? What kind of name is that?

French Algerian.

Engineering student.

Bit young for you.

How do you know he's a bit young for me?

Just assumed.

Do you think it's wise to have an arab boyfriend?

Given the nature of your work.

Dad come on, just because he's...

No hear me out Frankie.

I'm just thinking of your career.

I'm just thinking of your career.

Am I only allowed to date white middle-aged men?

What's wrong with white middle-aged men?

Yeah thank you this is a ridiculous conversation.

Frankie, you don't even know his surname.

I'm only looking out for you.

Wouldn't it be awful if this just crashed

into the ground.

Hey take care, be careful.

Hey, it's me. Can I come up?

No.

What?

No. I don't know who you are.

What do you mean?

Tell me your name.

Frankie.

Mr. kahil, tell me your last name.

Mr. kahil, tell me your last name.

Hey. Your neighbour just gave me a funny look.

Let me in.

Tell me your last name. Or else.

You refuse?

Othmani.

Othmani?

Can I help you?

Shit.

Shit.

Kahil othmani.

You're angry with me.

But you're not going to show your anger.

Am I that intimidating Mr. othmani?

Come on Mr. othmani, is that your anger?

Fuck.

Fuck.

That's unanimous then.

Let's call it a day. It's almost five.

We've got that meeting at five thirty.

Remember? The team has a meeting.

Reschedule. I have to go.

You're the boss.

Had enough for one day Dr. lethbridge?

First time for everything Terry.

Making your escape, are you?

See you tomorrow.

See you.

Hi I came over to your place to surprise you.

Hi I came over to your place to surprise you.

You're not here.

I thought you said you worked at home on

Tuesdays?

No matter.

Call me.

�

Hey Frankie.

Hi.

What are you up to?

Oh nothing studying... Computational fluid dynamics.

Something like that.

Frankie, I'm sorry someone's at the door.

I'll see you later OK?

�

�

Listen I was wondering could you do me

a huge favour?

There's a student in the engineering department who

I lent a book to ...Yeah generosity herself.

Anyway I've just realized I've got some notes in it

and I can't get in touch ...kahil othmani

I don't even know what year he's in.

I don't even know what year he's in.

Nothing?

�

Hi.

You've got a fucking nerve.

What do you mean?

You're not an engineering student,

you're a taxi driver.

I saw you lying to me, kahil.

I saw you in the taxi yesterday.

I saw you in the taxi yesterday.

Can we do this somewhere else?

No.

I was a student. My uncle in Paris was paying my fees.

He died.

So I had to give-up the course.

But I try to keep up with my studies,

so one day I can finish the degree.

So one day I can finish the degree.

I couldn't get my visa renewed so

I'm here illegally.

Malik lets me drive his taxi.

Sorry? You're illegal?

Yeah.

Oh.

It happens to many people.

It's not a big deal.

Not a big deal? Shit I don't believe this.

You want me to go?

Yes.

Just don't ever lie to me again, kahil.

Promise me.

Promise me.

Did you just tell me to piss off?

No. I said "I promise." "My love."

Kahil... kahil.

I want you to stop driving the taxi.

I want you to stop driving the taxi.

I can't. I need the money.

I can't. I need the money.

Yeah but if you get pulled over you're

gonna be arrested.

It's so dangerous.

I'm used to it.

You could work for me.

Work for you? You mean to research for you?

No, I meant re-painting my flat.

No I'm serious, I've been meaning to do it for months.

It would be a huge got paint I've got brushes, what?

Is this how you see me? As some kind of servant?

Oh Jesus, no kahil.

I just want to help. It would be temporary.

Before we sort something out.

Before we sort something out.

Morning, dr lethbridge.

Would you be so kind as to park on the other side?

Right now?

Yes, right now please. Thank you.

Sorry could I know what this is about?

Sorry could I know what this is about?

Drive on through doctor and I'll meet you

on the other side.

Dr. lethbridge, sorry about the wait.

Nina Simons.

Sorry what's this about?

How long have you known kahil othmani?

Why? What's going on?

Just answer the question please.

Just answer the question please.

How long have you known Mr. othmani?

Three weeks. He's a friend.

Right. He's twenty-four years old.

Algerian. A part-time taxi driver.

Yes.

Are you aware that he's an illegal immigrant?

No.

We are concerned that you're putting.

We are concerned that you're putting

yourself in an awkward position.

Are you asking me to stop seeing him?

His immigration status is really neither

here nor there to us-it's more an issue for our

colleagues in the borders agency.

We're here just to make sure that no-one takes advantage.

I see.

Anything that seems out of the ordinary.

A question, a phone call, an acquaintance.

A question, a phone call, an acquaintance.

Please don't hesitate to call me.

Night Frankie.

Frankie, you OK?

Frankie, you OK?

Just tired.

You staying on?

Yeah for a bit.

You sure you're alright?

Christ, you're not my father.

See you tomorrow.

Night boss.

Night boss.

Oh my god.

Oh my god.

It looks worse than it is.

Frankie.

Hey baby.

Now I look like a criminal, yes?

Now I look like a criminal, yes?

You like it?

What happened?

Well, I was happily painting your flat,

thinking to myself, "I'll be rich soon with such a job,".

Kahil, what happened?

Malik got into an argument with a couple of.

They wanted to kick Malik

out of the house.

I went over and I got into a fight.

That's it.

I didn't see Malik with a black eye.

Malik is like a brother to me.

Malik is like a brother to me.

Really? Now he knows where I live.

What do you mean?

Oh yeah, yeah, I just don't want strangers in my flat.

Malik is not a stranger.

I don't know where he is or what he's up to.

I don't know where he is or what he's up to.

What do you mean? Up to what?

I mean I hardly know you,

and now my flat is full...

What are you saying?

Don't you find it all a bit strange?

What?

Us.

The two of us getting together.

The two of us getting together.

Some people might find it a bit, you know, weird.

Perhaps you do ...After we...

After we make love I don't feel "weird."

I feel... quiet on every place on my body.

And for awhile OK a little while all the worries of

and for awhile OK a little while all the worries of

my life are gone.

�

Look, Frankie, I don't know what's been

happening with you lately...

It's none of your business...

But if we don't make this deadline- and

the way things are going we haven't got a fucking

prayer we can kiss goodbye to this company's chances

of ever getting another defense contract.

Of ever getting another defense contract.

Are you telling me how to do my job?

I'm telling you that it's not just your

career on the line.

His names raheem.

This one's Malik.

Malik is a friend of kahil's.

Raheem I've seen from a distance.

Where?

In easton.

In a football match.

In a football match.

Have they ever been to your flat?

No I don't know them,

I'm sorry what is this about?

They have become persons of interest to us

along with your boyfriend.

Person of interest?

Has it never even crossed your mind?

A women of your age, in a sensitive industry...

�

Hi.

Hi.

You OK?

We need to talk.

We need to talk.

About what?

I am behind on my work,

I've got a deadline I'm not going to make.

You didn't tell me.

Why should I tell you?

Why should I tell you anything?

Hey...

Hey...

The fact is I can't work with you here.

I need to work without distraction.

Are you breaking up with me?

My work keeps me going.

It has to come first.

Your work.

What about it?

What about it?

Do you know what your drones do?

Who they kill?

Uavs are targeted at the enemy.

And the neighbours, the wedding parties,

the village elders?

Do you even know the ratio of civilians to enemy deaths?

It's fifteen to one.

Fifteen civilians to one intended target.

This is not about your work,

this is about people like me who are down on the ground,

below your drones.

Below your drones.

This is your fucking sensitive work.

�

Get out, get the fuck out.

�

Fuck out.

�

�

For the painting.

Fuck you.

�

It's amazing what you've achieved, no?

With those toe rags at the mod.

I always knew you would crack it.

Where's that white vase?

Just use the other one.

How are things with kahil?

How are things with kahil?

We've broken up.

Who broke up with who?

I broke up with him.

I am sorry.

She would have been so proud of you.

I can't remember enough of her.

What did you love most about her dad?

Hmmm?

What did you love most about her?

What did you love most about her?

Remember that song?"

I love the way you always treat me, tenderly.

But darling most of all I love how you love me."

Her love was total, full on.

And you loved her back like that?

I don't know.

I don't know.

Is he in?

What if he is?

I need to see him.

Where have you been?

Missing you.

Missing you.

I should not forgive you.

I should not forgive you.

I looked at your computer.

I saw the islamic sites and I thought...

I keep up with the news in Algeria,

and those fundamentalist sites tell the truth about

the government.

You have so many secrets.

Yeah.

But secrets are not the same as lies.

�

Frankie are you OK?

Yeah I'm fine.

I'll be out in a minute.

�

�

Oh my god I've just noticed the time

I need to go.

Why? Stay. What's wrong.

Why? Stay. What's wrong.

Nothing. Really.

Malik and I are always arguing...

I just need to work.

You know me.

Ok.

�

�

Frankie.

I can't remember anything else. Sorry.

Thank you.

You've been very helpful.

Please will you tell me.

What's going on? Who is he?

Kahil othmani spent eighteen months in.

Kahil othmani spent eighteen months in

an Algerian prison.

Christ.

What did he do?

Can I have a word sir?

�

Subversive activity. What does that mean?

That's all I can tell you they've gone,

the house is empty.

What?

Do you know where he is?

No. No I've got no idea.

No. No I've got no idea.

Sir, we should go.

You'll tell us if he contacts you?

�

Hey. If there's anything

I can do anything at all...

What do you mean?

Your dad phoned me.

Your dad phoned me.

It's unbelievable.

But don't worry.

They'll find him and most likely they'll deport him.

Let the Algerians deal with it.

You're safe.

Sorry, excuse me.

I don't know if you remember me from the

restaurant?

Restaurant?

It's about kahil.

Look I don't know you I'm sorry.

Look I know there's no reason to talk to me.

Would you tell me, how did he get his scars?

He was tortured.

Why?

He was a student leader. Socialist.

So why are the police after him?

Why is he hiding guns?

They weren't his guns.

How could you believe that?

�

Listen to me.

What do you want?

It's important I talk to him.

I brought you some money; You could run.

I brought you some money; You could run.

I don't want your help.

Look I know that I...

You people always think you know

but you know nothing.

You're right.

�

We're very grateful to you, sir.

Well I just thought it for the best...

Here she is now. Alive and well.

Here she is now. Alive and well.

Fuck you.

Frankie.

Be very careful, dr.Lethbridge.

We could still charge you as an accessory.

You'd need real evidence for that.

You didn't contact us.

Look, look he's innocent.

We can hold him for up to 28 days,

then he'll be someone else's problem.

Why is she grateful to you, dad?

Let's go. It's been...

Why is she grateful to you, dad?

What did you do?

I never felt... I never...

I did it to protect you.

What?

I made a phone call.

I made a phone call.

To alert security.

What? Why? When?

At the very beginning.

Look I had to do it.

Frankie...

No don't touch me.

Just get away from me dad. Just leave me alone.

You just leave me alone.

Dr. lethbridge?

Hello.

We just need to make sure we've got all

our research.

Two minutes.
