MARCUS: Darling Violet.
It's time to say goodbye

to the land of Illyria.

(MAN SPEAKING FRENCH)

DEMIR: They closed
the Galata Bridge today.

They're looking for someone.

(BOTH GRUNTING)

-Where is she?
-Here.

The target claims to be
Adilah El Idrissi from Paris.

She left behind a daughter.

So guess what? At 8:15
this morning, a 10-year-old girl

was intercepted
on her way to school.

Strands of her hair were taken,

all I need you to do
is analyse them.

IMOGEN: We're here
to see Mr Demir.

This lady needs to get to Paris.

$2,000 now, $8,000 when you
give us the passport and papers.

"The Book of Surprises"
from the fourteenth century.

It's about Djinn
and devils and shapeshifters.

IMOGEN: There's seven
Djinn Kings.

One for each day of the week.

They can change into anything.

Using DNA evidence,
the Americans

have proven
that the woman you are with

really is Adilah El Idrissi.

The woman I am with is the ISIS
commander we are looking for.

The woman I am with
is the Djinn al Raqqah.

And I will prove it.

GUY: Black Aces and eights.
Dead man's hand.

-MAN: I'm not having any luck!
-(ALL CHATTERING)

(ALL PROTESTING)

WOMAN: Shut the door, man.

GUY: Shut the door, mate.
What are you doing?

There's some guy out there
I've never seen before.

Yeah. All right.
I'm out.

-WOMAN: Yeah. Of course.
-(INDISTINCT CONVERSATION)

(COUNTING TO SELF IN ARABIC)

(GRUNTS)

(PANTING, GRUNTING)

GUY: Hello, salaam...
(CONTINUES IN ARABIC)

It is customary
for all visitors to this camp

to report to the UNHCR.

So could I see
some identification

right now, please?

Hey, mate. (CLAPPING)

Identify yourself.

HASAD: My name?

My name is...

-(GUNSHOTS)
-(BOTH GRUNT)

(MOBILE PHONE BEEPS)

(HASAD ON PHONE)
I have her cell phone.

So...

It can begin.

And, so it can begin.

SAMHURES: I got the call.

It's time.

(ANNOUNCER ON PA SYSTEM
IN BULGARIAN)

(CLASSICAL MUSIC PLAYING)

You can't move into check.

And yet I so often do.

Gosh, you know what I've missed
most living in the camps?

The smell of a Western pharmacy,

when you walk in.

The soap, the perfume,
the... the cleanliness,

it's just... (SIGHS LOUDLY)

It's the finest achievement
of civilization.

Why would you
regularly help people

cross international borders?

I didn't say I did it regularly.

I did it once before.

It was a woman and her baby.

I went to Istanbul,
got them passports

and crossed the border
with them.

Because you are an angel.

Yes, I am an angel
of the pharmacy,

The Church of St Boots.

You and I've been together
for far, far too long.

We've actually only been
alone together for 77 hours.

Can we help you?

MAN: I love chess.

I am obsessed.

(CLICKS TONGUE) Mmm-mmm.

That's cheating.

He might be bad at chess.

He might be a grandmaster.

I am somewhere in between,
but closer to grandmaster.

Your King is now
where he should be.

All will now fall into place.

(BORDER OFFICER IN FRENCH)

(BORDER OFFICER IN FRENCH)

Hi.

(SIGHS, EXHALES)

IMOGEN: Adilah,
don't leave the apartment

I've arranged for you.

Just stick to the plan.

We'll speak tomorrow.

(ON PA SYSTEM) Welcome
to Charles De Gaulle...

Yasmina!

-Yasmina!
-YASMINA: Mama!

(CRYING)

(CONTINUES CRYING, SNIFFLING)

(SPEAKING FRENCH)

(NOOR IN FRENCH)

(IN FRENCH)

Bonjour.

Bonjour.

(IN FRENCH)

(FRENCH SONG PLAYING)

(IN ENGLISH) You look terrible.

-Why are you still in Paris?
-(CLEARS THROAT)

I thought your DNA miracle
closed the case.

Oh, the investigation into
Adilah El Idrissi was closed.

And then...

Two NGO workers
were executed

next to the tent
where she was detained.

Is it true that
the French intelligence systems

close at 5:00 and open at 9:00
like a grocery store?

What has happened?

Okay, I am...

declaring this intelligence
briefing official

at, let's see...

8:15 French time

as the rep
of the Paris Station of CIA.

-No.
-I am opening

a briefing session with...

with... Okay. He doesn't
want to give us his name.

With a representative
of the DGSE

to officially inform him

of pertinent developments

in an anti-terrorism
investigation

that took place
early this morning,

and as the sole source
of this intelligence,

CIA Paris Station
hereby claims primacy

in the consequent investigation

into the anti-terrorism
investigation

referred to previously
as "Operation Genie of Raqqah."

I now ask my French colleague
to respond to my request

to share fresh and relevant
intelligence with him.

-Fuck you.
-Okay.

Copy that.

WAITER: Monsieur.

(WAITER CONTINUES IN FRENCH)

I'm sorry, I don't know...
parlez-anglais?

(IN ENGLISH) Your friend,
he did not pay for his coffee.

You're kidding me.

Of course, he didn't.
I am so sorry, my man.

-How much was it?
-4.60.

4.60. Okay.

I'll tell you what?
You keep that.

All right? Keep the change.

America always
picks up the tab, baby.

(GUNSHOT)

When you're dead,

no one will be able
to touch your bodies

because of contamination.

These are your death shrouds.

Put them on now so you're
wearing them when you die.

So you will be
appropriately dressed

when you reach heaven.

Remember, once you've exposed

the cores
of the radiology machines,

you will have three minutes
to get them out of their casings

and into the water
inside the lead containers.

Within one minute
of exposure to the cores,

you'll be very sick.

After two minutes,
you may be blind.

After three minutes...

you will be dead.

So the task must be completed
within three minutes.

We need both cores.

You've practised the movements
and seen diagrams many times.

In the three minutes
you have before death,

think only
of the final consequence.

(MALIK CLEARS THROAT)

It must be nice
to be yourself again.

I need two things, Malik.

I need a shower...

and I need to be left alone
to pursue this.

Imogen, I was shown

a photograph
of two dead bodies in the snow

by an American who is always
12 hours ahead of me.

Early this morning,
the director of the refugee camp

was shot dead, along with
his head of communications.

And we believe
that it was no accident

that their bodies
were found next to the tent

where Adilah El Idrissi
was kept in isolation.

The body of
a low grade ISIS volunteer

known to the MIT
was found dead.

It was a single gunshot
to the head,

45 kilometres away
on a mountain roads.

Ultimate intelligence hygiene.

In the manner
of the Russian FSB.

WAITER: Voila.

-Sante.
-Merci.

As of course,
you must understand,

the murders at the camp
have changed things.

The case has been reopened.

It's not reopened

because it was never
closed for me.

I knew it was her,
and not Sabaine.

You were right, okay?
You were right.

-Say it again in French.
-(CHUCKLES)

Tu avais raison.

Tu avais raison. Tu avais
raison. Tu avais raison.

(IN ENGLISH) But,
you can't keep going rogue.

We are now on French soil.

The DGSE will not allow
a lone British agent

to handle a high-value target
without French supervision.

It simply cannot happen.

Also, the DRSD,
the BRGE and the DCPJ

will need to be involved,

and also the Americans.

(MALIK INHALES)

They believe that
inside the head

of whatever the fuck
she is to you,

there is a plan to kill
a massive amount of people.

And you're still sure
she's capable of that?

Everyone is capable
of everything.

Adilah El Idrissi's apartment

has already been wired
with devices

and her phone is tapped.

She isn't going back
to her apartment.

Why not?

Because I warned her not to.

I told her she'd be
under surveillance.

MALIK: Fuck.

I mean, know where she's going.

So where is she going?

Imogen, the President
of the United States

is briefed on the progress
of this investigation

every fucking day.

Then tell the President
of the United States

that no one else can achieve
what I can achieve.

And what is it
that you can achieve?

(IMOGEN CLEARS THROAT)

(WAITER SPEAKING FRENCH)

(CHAMPAGNE BOTTLE POPS)

(IN AMERICAN ACCENT)
Ladies and gentlemen,

may I please
have your attention?

My wonderful boyfriend,
just asked me to marry him!

(ALL CHEER)

And I said, yes!

(CHEERING, APPLAUDING)

To true, true love!

-ALL: To true love!
-(ALL APPLAUDING)

(IN USUAL ACCENT)
Adilah El Idrissi

is a shape-shifter,
and so am I.

You can tell the President
of the United States

I know
what the fuck I'm doing.

(SHOWER RUNNING)

My Violet.

Can you remember her face?

Emir.

(ADILAH ON PHONE)
I'm not sure who she really is.

I need to find out if she knows
anything about our plan.

So...

what is this woman like?

There's something...

intangible about her
that I can't name.

Sounds like someone I know.

Even though we're lying
to each other,

I feel like I've been
more honest with her

than most people.

You and I are the same.

We're all the same
in this thing we do.

But you...
You always go too far.

You disappear.

Even to yourself.

Even to me.

I'm here now.

When you were in Istanbul,

I was worried that...

it would bring back
too many memories.

(MOBILE PHONE VIBRATING)

My calls
are being intercepted.

Of course they are.

Don't take the call.

-Please don't...
-Hello?

ADILAH: Hi, it's me.
How are you?

I'm drinking champagne
and scotch.

What about you?

I imagine it's a little bit
overwhelming being back home.

ADILAH: (SIGHS) It's everything.

I just had the longest bath
with Yasmina.

She's sleeping now.

So, let's meet.

IMOGEN:
I know the perfect place.

It's a restaurant
called Guy Savoy.

It's on the Quai de Conti.

ADILAH: Okay.

IMOGEN: Okay, let's say 7:30.

-ADILAH: Yes.
-IMOGEN:
Perfect.

I'll see you then.

If you know
you're being surveilled,

why did you make a rendezvous?

To help your department
maintain control.

-How very kind of you.
-You're welcome.

We arranged the real rendezvous
on the plane

because I knew
my phone would be bugged.

Now that I've done that
on a tapped line,

you can send your people
there tonight at 7:30.

Find out who else
is listening to my calls.

I do these things purely
in the interest

of Anglo-French relations.

So, in the interest
of Anglo-French relations,

you now tell me where
you're really meeting her.

I will debrief you
tomorrow morning.

Fine. No problem.

I'll have you followed.

Ooh! Good luck with that.

(CHUCKLES)

(MOBILE PHONE RINGING)

(SPEAKING FRENCH)

(MAGRITTE SPEAKING FRENCH)

ADILAH: Boo!

Salut.

Salut.

Why did you choose here?

You're a big Morrison fan?

No, it's on all the maps.

It's easy to find.

I'm taking you to a grave
that's more obscure.

Come.

(SNIFFS)

The grave of my grandfather.

I often used to come here
to talk to him.

The grandfather
who was in the revolution.

A hero of the revolution.

What does the line
in Arabic say?

You already know what the line
in Arabic says, Imogen.

If Imogen is even
your real name.

Still here.

The revolver he used to fight
the French colonisers.

Instead of burying it with him,

I put it in a place
where I could reach it.

When I was young and fucked up,

I thought
someday I might do this...

Or when people
made me really angry,

when people lied to me,

I thought I might do this.

Now, I would love for you
to explain to me

why you're helping me.

I want you to explain in
the presence of my grandfather.

He was always able
to tell the truth from lies.

If your grandfather
decides I'm lying?

Then one of the bullets he put
into the chamber 70 years ago

will serve its original purpose.

Can I sit down?

Annihilation of the self...

has always fascinated me.

When I was younger,
my father was assassinated

and I became
very familiar with death.

He was a British diplomat.

I grew up all over the world.

When I was 16,
we were in Istanbul,

and he was blown to pieces
in a diplomatic car.

They said there was...

absolutely nothing left of him.
(CHUCKLES)

He was just made of... dust.

You see,
I think, being a diplomat

was just my father's cover.

So, who assassinated him then?

IMOGEN: The TDKP.

The Revolutionary
Communist Party of Turkiye,

which, the rumour is,
was controlled by the CIA.

The thing that stuck with me,
really struck me,

was that there was nothing
left of him for anyone to bury.

So, I couldn't understand
what they put in the coffin.

(CHUCKLING)

One day the person is there

and then the next,
they're just not.

Strangest thing...

That was not an answer
to my question.

Erm...

When I grew up, I followed
in my father's footsteps.

Er, I worked in embassies
around the world,

and then I was recruited

as an operative
for British intelligence...

MI6.

You are a British agent?

IMOGEN: Yes.

I was sent to the camp
to make contact with you.

The French
and the Americans thought

you were someone very important.

Then, apparently some DNA test

proved that
you weren't important at all.

And so, it's all over.

(CHUCKLING)

I'm just
a mid-level British agent

whose assignment
has been terminated

and you're a woman who made
a terrible decision long ago.

On the other hand,
maybe not entirely innocent.

So, why are you
still helping me?

Obsession with annihilation,

and those who seek it.

I do want you to
hold your daughter again

Without being under
constant surveillance.

And I like you.

Never really liked anyone.

The inscription says,

"One day the common people
will prevail."

What's your
grandfather's verdict?

Am I telling the truth,

or am I lying?

Grandfather says...

"the woman
is telling the truth."

(SPEAKING BULGARIAN)

(MOBILE PHONE VIBRATING)

Is it done?

DAVID: Michal and Farroukh
sacrificed their lives

removing the cores and
putting them in the container.

We will be with you
within 24 hours.
Inshallah.

(EXHALES)
Hi. I'll have a whiskey, double.

(IMOGEN SPEAKING FRENCH)

It is so interesting

that they thought you could be
the Djinn Al Raqqah.

So, who is this Djinn?

She's brilliant.

Smarter than
any of the male commanders.

She may have designed
the entire plot.

Very impressive.

But I need the truth about you
as soon as I saw you.

What is the truth about me?

You're just a mother
who loves her daughter.

You could never be
the kind of woman

who would plan a plot
to kill thousands of people.

Adilah, the Americans,

they are never gonna
let you just walk away.

Even if they don't think
you're the Djinn.

If they know you're ISIL,
they will capture you,

and interrogate you,

and probably torture you.

So will you help me
and my daughter get to safety?

I need a cigarette.
I'll be back in a second.

(BOTH IN FRENCH)

(IN ENGLISH) Do you ever
wonder how we'd do this job

if we didn't drink?

No. Don't be ridiculous.

I think she's playing
a double game.

She's still working for them
and she knows everything,

but she's also trying
to escape with her daughter.

I need her to believe
I'm helping her with that,

and she'll stay close to me.

And I know she's going
to tell us what we need to know.

Oh, yeah, I forgot, you can
just feel these things, right?

The deal you and I have is that
I do what the fuck I need to do

and you report what I find out
back to Langley.

I will report...

that you're in a good place
with the target

and you're reporting directly
to the CIA Paris station.

And keep the French Intelligence
at a distance

till you have something to share

that we think
they can be trusted with.

You know your task,
you know?

You can move to phase two
with my permission.

I'm officially moving
to phase fuck you!

The only reason
I'm working with you

is because in order to operate,
I need to know everything,

and I've calculated
that the Americans know the most

because they have
the most money,

and superior equipment.

Copy that.

Have you thought about the fact
that the camp assassinations

was done in the style
of the Russian FSB?

Of course, coincidence.

Hmm, never trust those, myself.

By the way...

I do need you
to do something for me.

I want confirmation
that the TDKP

was a cover for the CIA,

and they assassinated
Marcus Seabright.

And I want to know why.

That's a mighty big ask for you
to work out some daddy issues.

You've done your research.

MAX: That's highly classified.

Why would I do that for you?

IMOGEN: Because I've done
my research as well.

Morocco, 2013.

When do you want it?

5:00 p.m., your hotel bar.

The martinis are the best
in Paris.

From one who knows.

And here I just thought
you liked me

for my winning personality.

Some guy came
and sat next to me.

I paid the bill.

I can help you,
but I need some time,

and I need you to stay with me.

I can protect
you from the Americans

but the deal is Yasmina
has to go back to Noor

until we know exactly
what we're doing.

She's not safe with us.

I need you to believe me.

Everything depends
on her safety.

So, what's your real name?

The best lies are mostly true.
