Ma'am, it's Ruth.
There's been a death on Flight 357.

You need to drop out the plane.

You'd say anything not to
go to Beijing and face charges.

I want to know if he had a
pre-existing heart condition or not.

So, it was fine, wasn't it?

I was stabbed by a bouncer
in a Beijing club.

Club? Were you with a girl?

She was not in the car with me.
Bloody hell, mate.

Can I borrow your phone?
What's going on?

SPEAKING OWN LANGUAGE

Madam, did your dog eat
any of that man's food?

Somebody help him!

There's been a second death
on-board 357. Steven Hurst.

He's only on this plane
because of you.

My editor saw the video
of your prisoner at Heathrow,

and I've been assigned to it.

I can't go over this again.
I'm working.

Easy, Detective Lee.

Who are you?
Officer Tom. I'm the air marshal.

So sorry. Sorry that he's dead,
or that you were screwing him?

What are you doing here?

You're colouring way outside
your lines on this one, Madeline.

MUFFLED SCREAMING

Somehow, it relates to this woman,
Shen Zhao.

We need you to tell us everything
you remember about that night.

SPEAKING IN MANDARIN

Another Jack Daniels, please,
and a glass of champagne.

Matt, get your head out of those
cards. Let me introduce someone.

Hi. Matthew Nolan.
Shen Zhao.

Pleased to meet you.

So, are you mind or body?

Both, I hope.
I meant your specialty.

Shen isn't a doctor,
she's a friend of Sir George.

Ah, right, yes,
should've noticed, no name tag.

What are you reading so studiously?

These? Oh, erm,
I'm giving a lecture in the norming

on the connection
between statins and surgery,

but I'm not really
the most confident public speaker.

Yet you agreed to fly halfway
around the world to do exactly that.

I guess the pros outweigh the cons.

You like China?

I like the people.

Does anyone care what I like?

Not even your wife, Chris.
CHRIS LAUGHS

Cheers.

Well, we're going out to eat,
Matthew, join us.

A little place
that George recommended.

Authentic cuisine.

Do you know her?

Know who?

Am I talking to myself?

What do you say? Matthew?

I've invited Amber and Steven.

I'd love to, Chris,
but I can't tonight.

INDISTINCT WHISPERING

Shen.

Steven, Amber, have you met Shen?

I don't think so. Nice to meet you.

Oh. Hello?

LAUGHING

Actually, it's goodbye,
I'm afraid.

You're leaving? You just got here.

I thought we were gonna have
a late dinner.

You can count us in.
I love a good meal.

How about you just stay for a bit,
Shen?

Are you all right?

I'm fine.

Did you remember the gift,
for Sir George?

SPEAKING IN MANDARIN

It was lovely to meet you all.
You, as well.

She does know that
that's not the exit, doesn't she?

Got yourself a strange one there,
Chris.

Well, I hope she's OK.

Yeah, me too.

Ready for your presentation, Matt?

No.

On that note...
I should probably retire.

Genius doesn't write itself.
Neither does mediocrity.

You should know.
See you all back at the hotel.

DISTANT SIREN WAILING

SPEAKING IN MANDARIN

Hello.
Sorry to intrude.

Are you going back to the city?

I am.

Do you need a ride?

That would be appreciated.

OK, then.

Is everything all right?

Of course.

Where to, then?

Where are you going?

Back to my hotel. I need to work.

But it's so early.

Let me buy you a drink
for being so kind.

I really shouldn't.

I insist, Dr Nolan.

Well, in that case,
you'd better call me Matt.

So, where to?

Heilong. It's a club.

DANCE MUSIC PLAYS

Interesting place.

DANCE MUSIC CONTINUES

Do you come here often?

Only when I want to disappear.

From what?
Life.

My father is a man
of great influence.

He has ears everywhere.
You mean eyes.

Those too.

So, tell me.
How well do you know Sir George?

We've only really met
a couple of times over the years.

Has he ever given you a gift
to deliver for him?

The odd bottle of single malt.

Why?

Because that tells me
I can trust you.

Shouldn't you have decided that
before you hopped into my car?

You make a good point.

And that's when I got my things

and took a car to the airport.

You stapled your wound?

To stop the bleeding, yeah.

That's, uh, impressive.

I re-stitched it properly
at the airport lounge.

So, you said Shen Zhao
is the one who drugged you?

Or someone at the club, I...

I think she was working with them.

Unfortunately, Beijing has many
of these mob-run nightclubs.

But you're sure
you left her at the club?

Mm-hm.
You're not confused?

I was trying to get away from her.
Why would I take her with me?

Right.

And you think
that's why she drugged you?

So they could rob you?

Or I wake up in a bathtub
missing some vital organs.

Either way,
I was not gonna wait to find out.

So, you crashed the car
without Shen Zhao in it.

And when the police arrive,
there she is.

So they say.

I saw the photos. She was there.

What does any of this have to do
with what's happening up here?

I don't know. But I'm sorry, Nolan,

so much of what you say
just doesn't add up.

I'm telling you, it is the truth.

OK, fine, but why target you if...

this Dr Peele
already had dinner plans with her?

And who is Sir George?

Sir George Chapman,
he owns World Pacific Medicine.

Why would she know that?

She did her research.
OK, fine.

So, if she is a honey trap
for wealthy tourists,

why kill her?

I should talk to Kate Ward.

See what she remembers.

Where is she?

I'll find her.

Someone should check on Amber, too.

She was hitting the booze and pills
pretty hard.

Yeah, I'll go.

GRUNTS AND SIGHS

WHISPERS: There she is.

Dr Ward?

Could I talk to you again?
DR WARD: Yeah, sure.

DR WARD SIGHS
Thank you.

I'm interested in
what you remember about Shen Zhao.

Is that the name of the girl
that Matt's supposed to...? Yeah.

Nothing, really.

She wasn't part of our conference,

or at least,
I don't remember seeing her before.

I saw her talking to Chris
and Matt at the bar.

Did you talk to her?
Only to say excuse me.

She bumped into me
as I left the bathroom.

Did she seem in a hurry?

More distracted, I'd say.

And what about later?

I don't remember seeing her after
that, but I wasn't paying attention.

I do remember there was
a bit of commotion, though,

among the waiters.

What do you mean?
A couple of them ran out.

Any idea what that was about?

Not a clue. And then...
Dr Ward.

What are you doing?
I'm placing you in custody

for the suspected murder
of Amber and Steven Hurst. What?!

Amber's dead?
Ah!

This way, now.

Tell Dr Nolan I need him right now.

EXHALES

SOFTLY: Oh, damn.

INDISTINCT ARGUING

SPEAKING IN MANDARIN

Get your bloody hands off me!

I didn't do anything!

Ow!

SHE GRUNTS

Don't make this worse for yourself.

Oh, shit.

Oh, Jesus.

Amber.

Can you tell how she died?

Does it matter?

She's been murdered,
just like the others.

And the first death
was supposed to be me.

I can't be here.

I've gotta get off the plane,
I need to talk to the captain.

He has to land.
No, he won't do that.

I'll bloody well make him!

Now get out of my way!
No, calm down!

I can't be here!
Calm down!

HANDCUFFS CLICK,
MATT EXCLAIMS

I know! I know.

What?

I believe you. OK?

HE EXHALES SHARPLY

OK? I believe you.

Matthew?

I'm gonna uncuff you.

Are you all right?

Yeah?

So, what happens now?

You can start by telling me
who the bloody hell you really are.

You know who I am.
No.

You said I only know
what they told me.

So, now's your chance.

Who are you,
and who are these people?

We're just doctors.

People don't try to poison
and murder doctors for no reason.

I am a vascular surgeon.

I went to Oxford, I...
I play golf on Sundays,

I do the Times crossword.

I swear... I don't know why any of
this is happening to me, or to them.

There's something
you're not telling me.

But right now, I need your help.

Help me... help you.

Examine her.

OK.

INTERCOM BEEPS

RECORDING: 'The offices for World
Pacific Medicine are now closed.

'Thank you for your visit.'

SOFTLY: Crap.

She definitely asphyxiated.

Choked or was choked?

It's hard to tell.
If we were on the ground...

Yeah, OK.

Were her wrists bound?

They wouldn't need to be,
the amount of alprazolam she took.

How about defensive wounds?

Multiple avulsion fractures.

Her metacarpal's broken.

Same here.

What about Steven?

Yeah, it's the same.

I don't understand.

Where's Dr Ward?

Handcuffed in the rear galley.
Why?

Because she's a suspect.

Nolan, step away from the body, please.

You can't actually believe
she did this?

I'm a police officer,
and so are you.

It doesn't matter what we believe.

She had motive, she had opportunity.

We both saw her coming up
from down here.

There isn't a crime of passion,
Officer Zhang.

In fact,
these deaths are staged

to look like anything but murder.

I'll leave Beijing forensics
to tell me what they are.

Right now, she's one of
only two people on-board

who I can think of
could mean them harm.

And seeing as Nolan
hasn't left your sight,

she stays in custody.

Why would I wanna kill them?

To stop them testifying against you.

Testifying to what?

They weren't at the club, they
weren't in the bloody car with me,

I don't understand
why any of them are here.

And... And what about Daniel Lomax
and the dog?

Unless you think I poisoned
my own bloody food as well?

That's something to consider.

LAUGHS
You can't be serious.

Hana.

Take your prisoner back to his seat
and keep him there.

I don't want him wandering around
for the remainder of the flight.

You're making a mistake.

I'm doing my job.
I suggest you do the same.

Ma'am.

Hana, what's happening?

Amber Hurst is dead.

Quiet, everyone, please.

How did she die?

'It was made to look like she
overdosed, grieving her husband.'

But her fingers were broken.

I'll call you back.

We missed it earlier, ma'am, but...

Steven Hurst's were, as well.

So he wasn't just restrained,
he was interrogated.

Amber, too.

'This isn't just about murder.'

The killer thought they knew
something. Yeah, but knew what?

I don't know yet.

Erm, where are we on that fourth
doctor that refused to return?

Christopher Peele.
Yeah.

Alpha team's
just arrived at his house.

Hana.
Ma'am, what's the status

on getting this plane to land?

'We're working on it.'

Listen,
have you questioned Kate Ward yet?

'Briefly.'
Well, talk to her again.

The air marshal's arrested her.

Why?

She was having an affair
with Steven Hurst,

and the idiot thinks that
she killed both husband and wife

in a fit of jealousy.

Listen to me.

We have no way of knowing
if Amber Hurst had what they wanted,

or if the killer's still looking.

'You need to question
Kate Ward again.'

Explain that she's in danger,
get her to talk.

PHONE DISCONNECTS

Ma'am, we have a problem.
Christ, what now?

Peele's wife says
he never came home.

Well, have we run
cell-site analysis?

His phone's dark.
What about his car?

Never left Heathrow.

Whoa, whoa, whoa,
where are you going?

I told you, I want
your detainee back in his seat.

I need to talk to Kate,
and right now.

Nolan is the only person on-board
she will trust.

I'm not letting him near her.

She could be in danger,
we need to talk to her.

She's perfectly safe.
Move.

Detective Li,
you have no authority here.

Then arrest me.

Detective Li!

Where is she?
Zhang, where did she go?

SPEAKING IN MANDARIN

Tell the Captain,
for his own safety,

he should remain in the cockpit
while we search.

Yes, sir. Start back here. There's
only so many places she can hide.

She's not hiding.

I'll start in business class.

You should go back to your seat.
And do what?

If Kate's in trouble,
I have to help.

OK.

DISTANT SIREN WAILING

What the hell?

Oh, crap.
Hey!

Let's go. I want that phone.

TYRES SCREECH

We've been following up
on Dr Peele, ma'am.

This is CCTV of Peele
at the conference in Beijing.

Here he is with the Hursts, Nolan,
and Shen Zhao, the victim.

Shen Zhao seems intimate
with Peele here.

What's she looking at?

Hm, something spooked her.

Follow her.
I want to see what she does.

Pause it.

Did you see that?

Megan, bring up all Shen Zhao's
interactions with the group.

There, look.

Every time.

She didn't just talk
to each of those doctors

that was asked to return.

She physically touched
each one of them.

No, there's something else
going on here.

This isn't about
what one of them knows,

it's about
what one of them was given.

Right, I want everyone
to focus on this woman, Shen Zhao.

Up until now, we've been
looking at her as a victim,

taking what the Chinese
presented to us at face value.

Let's turn that on its head.

If Shen Zhao was there
to pass something off to someone

at that party,
that means she's an operative.

Now, I want to know for whom
and what she had.

Where could she be?
This doesn't make any sense.

Nothing about tonight makes sense.

Anything?
No.

Well, she's not Houdini,
we know she's here.

Yeah, we must be missing somewhere.

PHONE CHIMES
What about the luggage hold?

Could she access that?
Impossible.

She'd need to go through a hatch
in the cockpit.

She's not getting in there.

PHONE VIBRATES

Let's just keep looking.

Jess.

'Did you get the video I sent?'

I told you, I am busy.
Just watch it!

I don't care about your story.

Men with guns are looking for me,

so can you just shut up
and watch it?

What men?

'I went to
World Pacific Medicine offices.'

World Pacific? Why?

Because that's what journalists do
when their sisters won't help them.

These guys showed up.

They looked government,
went up to the third floor,

and they started
removing computers and documents.

How do you know? Did you go inside?

Of course not, I filmed them
from across the street.

You filmed them?
That's what's on the video!

OK...

WHISPERS: Hang on.

Jesus, Jess.

'I know, right?'

This is some Watergate-level shit.

OK, get off the streets,
go to Dad's.

I'm not dragging him into this!

'Then go to Simon.'

What's the name of the woman
that died in China?

'Jess, you need to drop this.'

OK? It's dangerous.
'I need this story.'

Three people are dead,
and I don't want you to be next

because you're sticking your nose
somewhere it doesn't... It's three?

'Jess...'

If I promise you
I will share everything with you

when this is over, will you please
just leave it and go home?!

That'll be too late.

Don't be so stubborn!

'I only have till morning,
so if you won't help me,'

I'll just keep going myself.

As always, thanks for nothing.

CAR BEEPS

Hi. Richmond, please.

TENNANT:
Minister Tang, excuse the hour.

TANG: 'I don't think any of us
are going home tonight.'

You're aware there have now been
three deaths on-board 357.

'I am.' And are you also aware
that two of them

were on the shortlist of passengers
you asked to return to China?

'Yes.'

Can you explain that?

'That sounds more like an accusation
than a question, Director General.'

And that sounds like an avoidance.

'Our government is very sorry
for your loss.

'But the woman responsible
has now been apprehended.'

Dr Kate Ward?
'Correct.

'We will investigate fully once
the plane is safely in Beijing.'

As the victims are all British,

and, in your opinion,
so is the perpetrator,

my government would like
the flight to land

at the closest airport,
so that WE can investigate.

'It is not possible.'

Why?
'The plane is in Russian airspace,

'and I'm sure
neither of our countries

'would like to add that complication
to the situation.'

Then can we request
the plane return to London?

'You can request.'

Minister Tang,
can I be straight with you?

You know that I was against your bid
to build power plants in Britain

just as I was against
returning Nolan.

Madeline, I'm handling this.

But John here did vote for your bid,
and he did trust you enough

to return those citizens to you

on the understanding
that no harm would come to them.

'This nuclear deal benefits Britain

'far more than China,
Director General.'

We both know that Britain's
seal of approval

opens doors
to other Western countries,

and that's worth far more
than money to you.

'What is your point?'

My government
has played ball with you,

now you play ball with us

and return the damn plane.

'May I now speak plainly?

'How stupid do you think we are?

'Do you really think
we believed everything

'that was presented to us
in Beijing?

'Shen Zhao's forensic report
shows conclusively

'that she did not die
in that car crash.'

What are you talking about?

'She was tortured, murdered,

'and planted in the vehicle.'

You know Shen Zhao slipped something
to one of those doctors,

so that's why you wanted them
returned immediately.

Don't collect luggage,
don't pass through immigration.

'You say "slipped,"
I say "stolen". '

What was taken?
'Well, you tell us.'

If Shen Zhao was murdered,
as you're implying, Minister Tang,

it wasn't by us.

'And I trust you believe that,
Director General.

'Like you believe your government
couldn't possibly be responsible

'for the deaths on 357.

'Try not to get blindsided.'

COMPUTER BEEPS

What the hell was that?

Well, he's lying, Madeline.

He's trying to throw shade
and confusion

and cover whatever they're doing.

But why would China kill people
on that flight

when they'll have them soon enough?

For precisely that reason -
creating doubt.

In the air,
they get to act with impunity,

as long as they can
point the finger elsewhere.

But what could warrant this risk?

There's... something about this.

It seems desperate.

EXHALES

Oh, Jesus.

Explain this.

Where is this?

You don't recognise
the World Pacific Medicine office,

even though you've worked with them
for ten years?

Never been there.

What are they doing?

Why do you think
they're clearing out the office?

I don't know.

But doesn't this prove
exactly what I've been saying?

That someone is trying to frame me.

Government offices
don't steal files and computers

unless something's gone very wrong.

So if you're keeping anything
from me, Nolan,

now's the time.

I'm as in the dark as you are.

Songyun, what's going on?

Food service?

You have got to be kidding me.

MAN 1: Did it never
occur to you to tell me?

MAN 2: You can't be serious.

I suppose that is what you mean
by the "special relationship".

My personal life
is none of your damn business!

Mike.

Am I interrupting?
No. It's nothing.

It didn't sound like nothing.

Sir, here's the report
on the incident

at World Pacific Medicine.

What incident?
Thank you, Doyle, I'll take that.

When was this?

About an hour ago.
There was a break-in.

Would you excuse us, Mike?

I'll wait in your office.

Nolan and the other doctors' files
were taken.

Why am I just hearing about this?
You were busy.

Who's this?

We don't know yet.

And who are you, Doyle?

He works for me.

At OSCT he might, but not here.
Send him home.

I'll decide what I do
or don't have time for, John.

I'll respect that.

But check your tone, Madeline.

I don't work under you any more.

SPEAKING IN MANDARIN

What is going on?

My crew have searched everywhere,
Detective Li.

Multiple times.

If you wish to keep searching
with Officer Zhang, be my guest.

But I want all flight attendants
to return to their assignments.

We haven't searched everywhere.
She isn't in the luggage hold.

Let me check.

I can assure you,
there's no way she's in there.

We've searched everywhere else.

Unless you think she just vanished?

It's a restricted area
with a lot of sensitive equipment.

Then imagine the damage a
dangerous woman could do down there.

I'll go.

So, erm,
what were you shouting about?

Us.

Oh. What about us?

He knows.

I see. He's trying to feel out
where my loyalties lie.

And where do they lie?

You gotta ask?

What are you doing here?

Do I need a reason?

You're CIA,
you always have a reason.

Here's everything we have
on Shen Zhao.

Beijing socialite,
studied at Oxford, never married.

Staunchly pro-China,
like her father.

I just wanted you to have this
and not Tennant.

Right, so what are the chances
that a woman like this

would turn
and betray her own country?

Honestly? Zero.

A woman like her
would rather die than do that.
