[ominous music]

[loads gun]

Took you long enough to find me.

Where is it?

What's that?

Your suicide note.

[chatter and camera flashes]

[press shouting]
[patriotic music]

[Ella] That's all for today.

Thank you, ladies and gents.

- Was that okay?
- Great.

No comment.

I was just wondering if

we were eating together tonight?

No can do.

Busy this evening.

No PDA's in front of the boss.

How you can work for someone like

that is beyond me.

He's going to be the next Prime Minister.

Careful what you wish for.

And those two.

[Jake] What did he promise them?

No scoops, no insider info.

That's the only way this works.

Time to go.

Smile.

[goofy laugh]

Stop.

[Stylist] What?

If her hair's too big it makes her look jowly.

Right, you've got a phone call with the Mayoress at

three and an interview with

"Women's Own" twelve minutes later.

[Stylist] You're telling me this isn't 'Women's Own'?

We need to run through post result quotes.

The email you sent yesterday?

Which you've learnt?

[Ella] You'll be fine.

[Stylist] Give us the eyes.

Perfect.

Careful.

- I haven't set it yet.
- Sorry.

Never touch her like that again.

One phone call from me and you'll be

lucky if you can powder a Lib Dem.

Take a break.

Thank you.

We're down eight points.

A lot can happen in twenty four hours.

It's me, isn't it?

They don't like me.

Something about me.

My clothes, my smile?

Stay positive.

We could be living at number ten,

going to parties, dancing with kings and presidents.

I mean, why else would they

have given you one of these?

What' s that?

Push it and find out.

[high pitched beeping]

I'm so sorry.

I think Mrs. Stonesmith must have

pressed the panic button by mistake.

Not a problem at all Ma'am.

- There's a photographer in reception.
- Thank you.

He likes you.

That's very kind, but I don't

think my boyfriend would approve.

I wish I had your confidence.

What's wrong with me?

[camera snaps]

[Piers] Relax.

[Piers] You look constipated.

Oh Jesus Christ.

Oh useless.

Got it? Done?

Maybe slow down on these?

I sometimes forget who works for whom.

I don't think she's ready for tonight.

Then you better make her ready.

This is our last chance.

If this doesn't go well, I'll be

looking for a new head of PR.

What?

I need people I can trust to

work with me at number ten.

You'd better make this evening work. Got it?

When are you going to tell her?

Tell me what?

We've all seen the polls and it's not looking good.

[Piers] And I think if we are honest with ourselves,

we know why. Voters just aren't connecting with you.

We think a focus group with a cross section

of voters will get us over the line.

We just need to present you in

a way that people can relate to.

It's the final hoop we need to jump through.

I'm not sure I'm comfortable with this.

Every election campaign has bumps in the road.

This really could make a big difference.

To both of us.

Can I count on you?

Always.

It's fine.

No stone unturned.

[car engine]

Good evening.

You work with them?

No, I'm with the focus group.

Jackie.

Cyril.

Are we going to be late?

Whoa.

Focus group?

[suspenseful music]

What's going on?

This isn't on the schedule.

Focus group, for Mrs. Stonesmith.

Isn't it a bit late for that?

This is politics.

It's never too late.

[suspenseful music]

What if they hate me?

Don't be ridiculous.

Are we...?

Not you.

I'm their security officer.

- There's no one in the building.
- Ella?

We'll be fine.

[creepy music]

[security pass opens door]

Someone will be with you in a moment.

[Jackie] Thank you.

[door locking]

Well, that was weird.

[Cyril] What do you mean?

[Tim] Well, they're MP's and it's the night before an

election, so haven't they got anywhere better to be?

[ominous music]

Is that it?

I need you to do this next bit on your own.

I have spent an obscene amount

of money to make tonight possible.

I'm a focus group.

Think of it more as group therapy.

Do you trust me?

You're a politician.

I do love you, though.

Good.

I want you to go in there and focus

on what it is we both really want.

Right.

[security door unlocks]

Not you.

You're not going in there.

I am.

I mean, look at her.

You're going to send her in

with the general public alone?

They'll eat her alive.

Trust me, you don't want to be in that room.

If my job is riding on tonight,

I need to be in that room.

Fine.

You better do exactly as instructed.

I'll be watching you.

Hi, Caroline.

[security door unlocks]

[security door locks]

Can I have your attention, please?

You've all been invited to this very special event.

Thank you for accepting.

Piers would like you to read these.

With great gratitude for your attendance,

you will all be eligible for a one off,

tax free payment of £25,000 pounds.

[Tim] What's that?

[Cyril] Is that the money?

sinister music sting]

I knew it!

[Ella] Jake, what are you doing here?

He writes for "The Examiner".

You accused my husband of being an alcoholic.

Functioning alcoholic, actually.

And it wasn't an accusation.

I have my sources.

- What?
- Is this your boyfriend?

[Jake] Oh, sorry, god.

Now I'm pleased to meet you.

I've heard so much about you.

What have you been saying?

You were supposed to protect us.

I haven't been saying anything.

She is telling the truth.

Thankfully, she does have a habit

of leaving her phone unlock, though.

You won't be so pleased when you have

to face an ethics committee inquiry on the

first day of my husband's leadership.

And it would have to be a

miracle for him to be in charge.

I think you should leave.

[Jake] Ella?

He's on the list.

You can leave, though.

I didn't agree to this.

Last chance.

There's a lot riding on this.

I can't be in the room with him.

We need to stay.

Keep away from us.

[security door locks]

If I could draw your attention to the screen please.

There will be a short presentation. Thank you.

Welcome to what could be the

greatest night of your life.

[Man] You're being invited to unlock your potential.

What's going on?

As I'm sure your host explained,

if you make it to midnight, you'll receive

a one off payment of twenty five thousand pounds.

[Man] All you have to do is choose

a key and make your selection.

The right key in the right

lock, and you'll receive a wish.

Your wildest dreams fulfilled.

No limits.

[Man] Conversely, if you make a poor choice, as with

all bad decisions in life, there will be consequences.

[Man] Best of luck.

[Man] Remember to follow your gut.

You'll know when you have it.

You'll feel it in your bones.

Make the right choice for your future.

Good evening.

Could I trouble you for a favor?

What?

I need you to hand over your firearm.

I don't think that's a good idea.

You're a civilian.

What?

[crackling electricity]

I thought this was a focus group.

Yeah, it feels more like an escape room.

Yeah, it must be like a game show

What, we've got to pick the right key to get the money?

Nah, we get the money regardless

If we stay till midnight.

He said if we make it till midnight.

[scoffs]

What is this?

Something I've been working on for a very long time.

Like me?

None of this makes sense.

A magic box that grants wishes?

What's this got to do with people liking me?

[Helena] And what is he doing here?

I'm living.

There must be some sort of trick to this.

Anything written on it?

Oh, good thinking.

Hello Caroline?

You need to open the door.

You need to do as instructed by your husband.

I don't understand.

Piers knows what he's doing.

He's trusting you to help with the campaign.

I'd give my right arm to be in your position.

- I say we try one.
- Yes.

Hold your horses.

It's a process of elimination.

What if we choose the wrong one?

There is no we.

I think we're all playing our own game.

Typical youngsters.

We didn't say we couldn't have more than one try.

What about the consequences he mentioned?

Oh, I don't want to get gunged. Open the door.

This is absurd.

I'll call Piers.

Got a signal, have you?

No, but I have one of these.

[high pitched beeping]

[Helena] Hamish will straighten this out.

[beeping gets louder]

You are in big trouble.

[Ella] There are gonna be some serious consequences.

[clank-clunk]

[loud mechanical sounds and droning]

Do you want Piers to win?

Yes.

Then get back to it.

[mechanical sounds]

We need to do as she says.

[mechanical sounds grow]

[mechanical sounds stop]

I guess that wasn't the right one.

I told you.

[News man] Police are appealing for any witnesses.

In other news today, the proposed eleven fracking

sites across the country have been greenlit.

Representatives from the Bev Sand Corporation

have denied any potential environmental risks,

contradicting the scientific consensus.

Well, that was odd.

How many keys are there?

Why would that matter?

[Tim] We could count them.

Well as long as I get my twenty five grand,

I don't give a damn. Probably on television.

Everything's on telly these days.

Who would want to watch this?

Do you know what's going on?

Mrs. Stonesmith?

Helena, please.

Jackie.

Pleased to meet you, Helena.

Delighted.

And as to this, I honestly have no idea.

Cyril seems to think we might be on television.

Yeah, yeah, Beadles or something.

- Beadle is dead.
- And I keep losing

count with all this talking going on.

Oh, easy, tiger.

Maybe we could divide it up into a grid?

Kids, why do you always have to complicate things?

Maybe I could have a go.

Go for it.

But when I want to go, I've got to wait.

[ominous music]

[mechanical sounds and droning]

[Jackie] Oh I don't like this part.

Special effects.

Has to be.

[mechanical sounds stop]

[News man] There's been a serious accident involving

multiple vehicles on the M7.

We can confirm that at least twelve people have

died, with over 60 injured in the crash.

Thought to have been caused by

poor road maintenance and ongoing problems

with potholes on the busy interchange.

You've got to admire the production values.

They even got Peter Mann.

I hope you're writing down the grid reference.

I need some air.

Typical, eh?

[tries locked door]

Why are we locked in?

[Jackie] It must be for our own safety.

Since when is being detained for your own safety?

They've got no right to lock us in.

[Cyril] Oh look, it's Citizen Smith.

I guarantee you this.

step one foot outside,

You won't see a penny.

The rebellion is over as soon as money is mentioned.

We had some laughs though, didn't we?

Mainly about your boss.

- Go away.
- Oh come on

You have no idea how brutal the press can be.

I work in politics.

It can be pretty cutthroat.

Only because of us.

What are we even doing here?

That. It's something of a press room legend.

no one's ever seen in person before.

- It's called the Apocalypse Box.
- The what?

The Apocalypse Box.

It's ridiculous, I know.

I thought I'd be excited seeing it

in person, but it is quite unnerving.

Story goes, it's been around for thousands of years.

Turns up at all major events.

You know, natural disasters, wars, the fall of empires.

There's even a secret society that protect the box.

They supposedly kept it hidden for the past 20 years.

That's a bit far fetched.

That's what I thought.

But here we are, trapped.

MP's guarding the door, and the future

Prime Minister's wife stuck with us.

[Ella] I thought you said he couldn't win.

[Jake] Never say never.

I saw what they did to your driver.

They're taking this seriously.

Maybe we should too.

How are you even here?

I changed one of the names in your guest list.

You should really learn to lock

your laptop screen when you shower.

So you used me?

You'll want to talk.

You've used me to plant a story or two.

You've used her so much that she

doesn't even know who she is anymore.

Look at her.

She's not going out for this.

You won't get a signal.

I'm Jackie.

Pleased to meet you.

Khara.

- Khara, oh what a beautiful name.
- Thank you.

Where are you from Khara?

The surgery down on Burton street.

No, I mean where are you from originally?

This is gonna be huge.

Well, I hope it was worth it.

Oh, yeah.

We need to get out of here.

And we need to get that phone.

If this gets out, you'll be a laughing stock.

Midnight?

That's no good.

- Did you say you were a doctor?
- Yeah.

It's handy.

Um, I really need to be going.

Sorry everyone.

I need to leave right now.

[Jackie] I've got some shopping coming tomorrow.

Early tomorrow.

Can I leave now please?

I want to quit.

Can I please leave now? Hello?

If the press find out we're locked in,

this is going to be a PR disaster.

[Jackie] I want to go now, please.

[Jackie] Is anyone there?

Hello?

- Excuse me.
- Jackie?

[Jackie] I don't know if anyone's there. No one's...

Jackie?

I think you should stay.

But I want to go home.

How do I get them to take me home?

What about the money?

- I don't need money.
- Jackie?

- Yes.
- The thing is, we're supposed to

play the game by the rules.

Well, we know what I need to do, don't we?

[creepy whispers] Yes, yes that's it.

[creepy whispers] Thats the one.

It has to be this one.

It is this one.

Wait, wait, wait, wait.

I think you need to make a wish.

I wish I never made it here this evening.

[mechancial sounds - eerie droning]

[sounds stop]

[Tim] What the hell was that?

Special effects.

It must be part of the game.

Did I win?

I feel like I have.

[screen comes on]

What's this all about?

A clue, maybe we have to work out...

Shhh!

[Tim] Is that you?
[Jackie] Yes.

This was from earlier.

I was returning some shoes to Benson's.

That's not what happened.

This is silly.

This isn't what happened.

[Cyril] It's special effects.

Probably part of the game.

Well, it's not very funny.

Jackie, you're bleeding.

Are you okay, love?

I'm fine.

[Jackie] Absolutely fine.

[Cyril] Wait a second.
[Jackie] I.

[Ella] Please, let's just check you're okay.

Could everyone please stop staring at me?

[Cyril] Just wait will you?
[Ella] Jackie, come back.

[Ella] Just take a seat and I'll see

if I can get someone for you.

[Jackie] I just want to go home now.

I can't stay here.

I just want to go home.

Stay for a moment, please.

We just want to make sure you're okay love.

[loud bone snapping]

[Jackie] My arm!

Can someone please call an ambulance?

[neck snapping]

[Cyril] Look at all the blood.

Look.

- She's gone.
- What?

[Cyril] Her body, it's just disappeared.

What the bloody hell's going on?

That was amazing.

Why are you laughing?

Special effects.

Probably a trapdoor man.

But her neck, it broke on its own.

Ah, she was a plant.

- They always put one in.
- But it looked so real.

Typical boomer.

Causes all the problems and then fucks off.

Well played.

You almost had me fooled.

[Eerie whispers] Everyone's looking at you. She's dead.

[Eerie whispers] Watching, judging. Laughing.

[Eerie whispers] What are you gonna do?

[Eerie whispers] They're never gonna forgive you. Hide.

[Cyril] It doesn't make sense, where did the body go?

[Tim] It makes perfect sense.

[Tim] She got her wish and then she never made it.

[Tim] here, so why would there be a body?

[crying under blanket]

Helena?

Helena?

Helena?

I'm on reality tv.

I can't be on reality tv. I can't.

I know.

You don't know anything.

You didn't know you were spilling all

our secrets to your boyfriend did you?

How could you let this happen?

None of this is my fault.

I'm sorry.

I don't know what's happening and I'm freaking out.

This was meant to help me connect with people.

I'm supposed to be the first lady.

- Well then act like the first lady.
- What?

I can't do my job with you being like this.

If we are being recorded, then let's use it.

We need to show them that you can handle it.

We can't control the situation, but we

can control our reaction to it.

Give me a minute.

[Ella] Can I have everyone's attention please?

I am as confused by this

evening's events as all of you.

This wasn't how today was supposed to go.

But I am sure if we stay patient,

we will all be out by midnight.

Right, well, we should be concentrating on the box.

Cause she doesn't know anything.

Let her speak.

Why? Because her husband's a bigot. No thanks.

[Cyril] He's not a bigot.

He's a patriot.

- A breath of fresh air.
- And you've been brainwashed.

Are you alright mate?

[Jake] You don't look too well.

Ah, all the patriotism giving you indigestion?

I can write a prescription for that

if you would just let me speak.

Talk is cheap.

She is doing her best in a difficult situation.

Be quiet.

The video said to wait until midnight.

You just need to be patient.

No, this is a joke.

Stop.

No, I've had enough.

They'll hurt you.

What do you mean?

They'll hurt you if you try to leave.

Trust me.

Trust you?

They took out our security.

What those two?

As if. The whole thing is a test.

Can you not have a word with Mr. Stonesmith?

Find out what's going on.

Mr. Stonesmith.

You do love being so subservient, don't you?

Tell them to open the doors.

Do you really want a news story getting out

about a Pakistani doctor being held against her will?

It's on brand for them.

Sorry, I don't have any answers.

Did you know this was gonna happen?

No, of course she didn't.

Can we please just get back to the box?

Cos the sooner we open it, the

sooner we can all go home.

- I thought you were homeless?
- Get lost.

I've seen you begging in the high street.

Poncing off of hard working folk.

- Get a job.
- Why?

- What?
- Why should I have to take some

shitty job that I'm overqualified for?

We've all had shitty jobs.

Yeah, well, maybe I want to do something that I love.

Life don't always work out that way, son.

Don't call me son.

[Eerie whispers] You can do this. They're all stupid.

Maybe I should try again.

You're gonna be the big man.

I can do this.

I feel like I know what to do.

What do you want?

I just wanna get what I'm entitled to.

Entitled?

Now there's a word.

You're gonna open it.

Look at his ey es.

I'm gonna open it.

[Eerie whsipers] You can do this.

I can do this.

I've always been lucky.

Like I know when I'm gonna win something.

Tim just wait.

I just wanna be paid fairly for what I'm worth.

[loud mechanical sounds - spooky droning]

[sounds stop]

[screen comes on]

[Tim] It's OK.

That's my account.

[cash register sound]

Yes. Yes. I won. Yes. I won.

Oh, yes. Oh, yes.

You beautiful man.

I won.

Oh my god. Come here you.

[Tim] Oh man this is exciting.

I'm working up a sweat.

It's getting hot actually.

It's getting really hot. But I'm a winner.

Yes!

[Jake] What are you gonna do with the money?

I'm gonna go traveling.

I'm gonna go traveling.
I'm gonna see...

I'm gonna see...

[Flesh ripping]
[Tim screams in pain]

[Ella] Can you help him?

[Khara] Tim what is it?

[Tim] Ah it hurts.

[Khara} Oh my god have you had an operation?

No!

This is special effect.

[Khara] Oh no this is real.

This is a real wound.

[Tim screams in agony]

[cash register sound]

[Flesh ripping]
[Tim screams in pain]

[Khara] That wasn't here a second ago.

[Khara] How is this possible?

[Cyril] Help him.

[Cyril] It's alright, stay with me son.

[cash register sound]

[Jake] His organs.

[Ella] What?

I wrote a piece on organ trafficking.

Kidneys were going for like, a hundred thousand pounds.

Lungs for two hundred thousand pounds.

They're paying him for what he's worth.

They're taking his organs.

[Flesh ripping]
[Tim screams]

Do something!

[cash register sound]

[Flesh ripping]
[Tim screams]

[Tim] My eyes!

[Tim screaming in agony]

[cash register sound]

[Cyril] He's dead.

[Straining with ropes]

[Jake] You okay

Murderers.

Caroline this has gone too far.

I don't think we're on television anymore.

You.

- You call yourself a doctor? Coward.
- You saw him.

What could I have done?

You could have comforted him.

I couldn't help him.

I wonder what you would have done

- If he was one of yours Eh?
- Unbelievable.

Is everything about race with you?

We all know how this would work out, don't we?

This is madness.

[Eerie whispers] I love you. Ignore them.

[Eerie whispers] I love you. He loves you.
[Eerie giggling]

[Ella] Helena?

How did I get here?

Come over here.

Pathetic.

Leave me alone.

You could have done something.

Anything, even just a few kind words.

Cyril?

You.

You could have saved her.

[Jake] Her?

Cyril.

Doctor, help him, please.

[Jake] Cyril breathe. Breathe.

[Khara] He's having a heart attack.
[heart thumping]

[Khara] Do you take Nitroglycerin Cyril?

[Khara] OK we need some Aspirin, check his pulse.

[sound fades away leaving heartbeat]

[heartbeat slows]

[Khara] Calm.

[Khara] That's it.

[Khara] Keep breathing. That's it.

[Khara] Keep breathing.

[Khara] You're going to slow your heart rate down.

[Khara] Just let the drugs do the work.

[Khara] Calm down. That's okay. In and out. That's it.

[News man] Party leaders are still out on the campaign

trail, with the notable absence of Piers Stonesmith,

who has all but disappeared, prompting some voters

to assume he's already given up his

hopes of taking office

Given up?

Polls open seven am

we need to make bold moves Matthew.

It's time.

Can't have a Minister of Defence

who hasn't fired a weapon.

Yeah.

[Matthew] I want to use it.

[Matthew] I will use it?

I'll use it.

That's the spirit.

[unlocking the door]

[Matthew] Huh?

[gunshot]

[sinister music]

Is this what you wanted?

Is this what I wanted?

I am here for the box.

I didn't want anyone to get hurt.

I doubt you're the first

journalist to utter those words.

[labored breathing]

[Khara] What is it?

Don't touch me.

He's all yours.

Cyril, just breathe.

Sorry, this is all we have.

It's all right.

Thank you.

Has this happened before?

It's just a moment.

You had a heart attack.

Cyril she saved you.

What? She took my pulse and gave me a bloody Aspirin.

That's all she's bloody good for.

- But
- It's fine.

[Cyril] It's not fine.

[Cyril] I prefer my doctors to be British.

I am B ritish.

If you say so.

People like you.

What do you mean, people like me?

I've heard it all before.

All the hate disappears when you're in trouble.

But as soon as you're back on your feet.

Oh, you disgust me.

The feeling's mutual.

You could have died.

But we're on the same side.

Send them all back to the Congo.

That's why you've got my vote.

That's not what.

That's not what this means.

At least he's honest.

[Eerie whispers] Keep. This is your fault. British.

[Eerie whispers] You know it is.

[mechanical scraping sounds]

[Jake] Ella?
[Ella] Sorry.

I don't know what happened.

Come away from the box.

I can't remember walking over there.

I just wanted to disappear.

Just stay away from it, please.

How can he be like that?

She just saved his life.

That's not what we stand for.

It's like Piers says,

angry people vote, scared people vote.

It's all part of the game.

It's not what we wanted.

We wanted to get elected.

More pearls of wisdom for me.

You don't remember me, do you?

I remember you.

In fact, I think about you every day.

What are you talking about Cyril?

As soon as I saw you I knew

that I was supposed to be here.

Just leave her alone.

Might jog your memory.

I took my wife Doreen to see you.

She'd had a bad headache for days.

She wasn't herself.

We were both worried.

It's not like her to have a bad turn.

And after we'd finally managed to understand

the receptionist, she was one of yours.

We sat down.

We sat down for over four and a half hours.

And when you finally got to see us.

You were so rude.

You sent us away with a couple of Paracetamol.

And you made us feel so bad

that we were wasting your precious time.

She died in the night of a stroke.

You kiss the woman you love good night, and when

you wake up in the morning, they've just gone.

I do remember.

I'm sorry.

I should have been a better doctor, but I just.

I missed it.

Oh, worthless excuses.

I was seeing other patients for those four and

a half hours non stop, 12 hours a day.

[Cyril] Oh, boohoo.

Cyril?

If I can bring her back, it's worth the risk.

You've seen what it did to them.

They just didn't know the odds.

Please stop and think.

But there's a chance I could get her back.

[Eerie whispers] Bring her back.

[Ella] Look at how many keyholes there are.

Look at all the keys.

Your chances are too small.

Still worth it.

I'm taking back control.

You'd risk it all for the slim

chance that everything could turn out okay?

I'd risk everything for her.

Her not being with me.

Doesn't make any sense.

I've never felt more alone.

Let him do it.

No.

He could die.

You want him to risk his life?

It's his choice, not yours.

Please don't do this.

I've been sleepwalking my way through

my life since she passed.

What can they do to me?

They can't hurt me anymore.

And if I can't have her back,

then I may as well join her.

Do you want to give him another heart attack?

Let him go, Ella.

It's his choice.

[Eerie whispers] Bring her back. You can do it.

[Eerie whispers] Take back control.

[Eerie whispers] Bring her back. Bring her back.

[loud mechanical sounds - eerie droning]

[champagne cork pops]

I do hope that isn't the slop we served them.

[distant alarm sounds]

What's that sound?

Someone is trying to get in through the car park.

Go and get rid of them and

find out where Matt's got to.

[loud regular alarm]

Hello.

I think you're in the wrong place.

This is private property.

I'm exactly where I need to be.

Did it work?

Are you okay?

Yeah, I'm okay.

It worked.

He did it.

When will I know it worked?

Do we just wait?

[loud alarm sounds]

[blood dripping]

[pained groans]

Oh god.

Oh god.

[scary music builds]

[flesh ripping]
{Caroline screams]

[door rattles]

[Doreen] Cyril!

[Cyril] Doreen?

[door rattles]
[Doreen] Cyril!

[tense music]

[door rattles]

[door rattles]

[Cyril] It's her.

Doreen!

It's her.

[Cyril] It's my wife.

[Cyril] Doreen?

They wouldn't let me in.

Are you okay?

I've got you back.

Are you OK love?

Oh my wish has come true.

- I've got you back.
- No.

That wasn't your wish.

No, you didn't want me back.

You wanted revenge.

[Hamish] Ella?
[Ella] Hamish!

[neck grabbed]
[throat squeezed]

[neck snap]

[security door locks]

Where are you going?

[Cyril] What are you doing?

Doreen, no.

No, stop.

I don't want this.

You do.

You want to get even.

You want to feel powerful again.

Somebody help me please.

[Khara] Oh my God. Please, no.

[Khara] Please stay away from me.

What are you gonna to do Doreen?

[Cyril] Doreen?
[Khara] Don't come any closer please.

[Khara] Somebody help me.
[Cyril] No.

Khara] Please!

[Cyril] Doreen
[Khara] Please!

[Cyril] No don't.
[Khara screams]

[Khara choking]

Help.

Help me, somebody please.

[Khara coking]
[flesh ripping]

Please!

She has a daughter.

I wonder if she'll feel the same way you did.

Like she has a hole in her heart.

[squelch and crunch]

[Cyril strains]

[sad music]

[Ella] Oh god.

[Ella sobbing]

[loud alarm]

You wouldn't let me stop Cyril opening the box.

I'm sorry.

Be sorry for his family.

They were so proud when he got this job.

I thought if he opened the box,

we might be able to leave.

He seemed so sure he had the right one.

[alarm stops]

We need to regroup.

Figure out what our next move is.

You're still thinking about the campaign?

Look around.

If it wasn't already over, it is now.

This isn't my fault.

[News man] And while we can't categorically call these

elections yet, it would be hard for

Stonesmith to come back from these projections.

When this election is over, can the country come

together? Or will it still be one of deep division?

You should give her a break.

She's not interested in the politics.

She just wants the limelight.

Eva Braun wasn't allowed in the same

room as Hitler when he was plotting.

Yes but she still thinks he should be Prime Minister.

After all of this.

Piers Stonesmith has never been a good person.

You must have known that.

I was just doing my job.

I wonder how many people it takes

to say that before someone gets hurt.

Can I please have a moment with my head of comms?

Can I please have an exclusive interview if we

get out of here alive and advice against it.

I'd advise against it.

After you.

Is it really over?

I hope so.

Piers isn't a bad man.

He put us in this situation.

He's not the man you think he is.

I ignored all the other stuff because

I was thinking about my career.

I...

I knew it wasn't right, but I let it slide.

This is my last night working for you.

I understand.

[security door unlocks]

It's midnight.

We can leave.

There's still a chance.

We can put all this behind us.

- We can still get out of this intact.
- What?

We can still help him win.

You can go back to your old job,

and things will get back to normal. Okay.

If you don't want your job, I'll make

sure that Piers gives you an excellent reference.

What about all of this?

Like you said, every election campaign

has its bumps in the road.

Piers can keep this quiet.

You can trust him.

It'll be like we were never here.

If only it were that easy.

And that is the final shot in what is

going to be the story of a lifetime.

I mean, it's got it all, hasn't it?

Sleazy politician.

Racism, bigotry, violent deaths, and

even some dark magic.

I cannot wait to write this one up.

Maybe we can come to some arrangement.

There must be something you want.

Money?

A job?

Please, Jake, tell me what you want,

and we can make it happen.

Please.

Well, now I just wish I filmed this.

I'd much rather end with the footage of you begging.

And to think I didn't even need to

use the box to get my wish.

You.

You need to stop.

I won't let you do this.

I won't let you ruin piers.

I won't.

You won't?

I'll kill you.

I won't let you do this.

I will kill you.

[Ella] Are you mad?

Someone is.

[Helena screams]

[Helena] I'm ruined.

[Helena sobbing]

One night.

[Helena] We just had to get through

one night, and we would have been on top.

I've worked so hard.

I've given everything.

But they can still take more.

I've let him down so badly.

Now he'll never get what he wants.

I will never get them to like me.

I'm useless.

Stupid, stupid waste of life.

I just wanted to be more.

There's always a way through.

[Eerie whispers] There's always a way through.

[Eerie whispers] There's always a way.

Yes, I can see that now.

Go on.

[Eerie whispers] Yes.

Yes.

[Eerie whispers] This is your choice.

[Eerie whispers] Go on. Everything you want in there.

[Eerie whispers] One more hoop to jump through.

One more loop to jump.

Helena, no.

[Ella screams]
[Jake] Leave her!

I want to see what happens

[Eerie whispers] Yes, you can fix this.

I can fix this.

Make it all go away. Make it.

[Eerie whispers] Make it all go away.

It won't work.

You'd only end up getting hurt.

I feel like my whole life has been building to this.

[Eerie whispers] Yes.

She'll only get what she deserves.

[Eerie whispers] Do it. Do it.

Go on. Do it!

Helena no.

[Eerie whispers] You can do this.

This is gonna happen.

[Eerie whispers] This is your choice.

It's my choice.

[News man] Come on.

Be brave.

Open the box.

I know what I want.

[Eerie whispers] Do it.

[Eerie whispers] Do it!

[Eerie whispers] This is your choice.

I know what I want.

Do it!

Make them love me.

[mechanical sounds and loud spooky droning]

[sounds stop]

[from screen - crowd cheering]

[News anchor] Piers Stonesmith has just been elected

as our new Prime Minister.

Yes! Yes!

We did it. We won.

We did it.

That's tomorrow.

A victory speech from Stonesmith on

the most somber of evenings.

His wife having been brutally murdered in

the early hours of yesterday morning.

What?

The outpouring of love and sympathy has been said

to have given Stone Smith the votes he needed.

A beloved partner to the new Prime Minister.

Her face will be seen across the globe.

- My wife is dead.
- No!

[Piers] She will always be remembered for her

commitment to this campaign and her commitment

to what is best for this country.

And I know.

I know she is listening.

Thank you, darling, for helping me to make

it all the way to number ten.

You will always be in my heart.

[News man] She certainly will be remembered.

A first lady, taken from us before she got the

chance to step over the threshold of number ten.

How can they say that I can come back from this?

They can't keep this quiet.

It'll be a resurrection.

Like Christ.

A miracle.

[Helena giggles]

I've got to look the part.

Helena, enough.

[Woman] She's one of those people that you

actually cared about reading in the news.

And she was someone who.

When I saw a story or a picture of her, I

don't know, I felt a kind of connection to her.

Honestly, I don't know how I'm coping with this.

I've never voted before.

The only reason I was voting was

really because of what happened to her.

[Pat] People overuse the word icon all the time.

What other words could you possibly use?

I don't think one person in the public

sphere has had as much profound impact.

[Sam] To view Helena's legacy,

She was inspirational, passionate, just

a loving, warm lady.

And I think she'll be sorely missed by this country.

And I'm just.

I'm at a loss of words to

describe how I feel right now.

And I'm sure the majority of the country are as well.

They really love me.

Helena Stonesmith brutally murdered along with two backbenchers,

Caroline Wickford and Matt Harris, shot dead by

online reporter for the "The Examiner" Jake Isaacs,

who then turned the gun on himself.

[gun clicks]

[gunshot]

[gunshot]

[Ella screams]

[Jim] Well I hadn't really been following

the election until this happened.

It was really, really sad.

But I had to vote for them after that.

[Sam] I think it was only fitting that my

vote went to Mr. Stonesmith to continue Helena's legacy.

Everyone talks about like, oh, her

husband's racist, her husband's a bigot.

But that's not what's important right now.

What's important is that she's dead.

Maybe we don't all agree with him, but at the

end of the day, she was an incredible woman.

Thank you for your heartfelt messages of

support for this campaign, for which I

know we have all worked so hard.

You won't get away with this.

Yes, I will.

Bastard.

I'll tell anyone that'll listen.

This was never part of the plan,

but box gets what the box wants.

I would have preferred her alive.

Now I have to cook her some widower bullshit,

a lot of moping around for at least a year.

How can you be so callous?

You never loved her.

I did.

But I outgrew her.

She was holding me back.

She was holding us all back.

She did this for you.

Why do you think she was in the room?

I thought that she wished for us to win.

But she's achieved

So much more.

They're dead.

They're dead.

They're all dead.

People die every day.

It's the price of doing business.

You're not a victim here, Ella.

You're an accomplice.

She got her wish.

At least let her memories be loved.

Oh, and of course, you will be killed if

you utter a word of this to anyone.

That's up to you, though.

You always have a choice.

Well, I'm going to write my acceptance speech.

At least I know the first few lines.

And I'll have to think of a

new line up for the cabinet.

I want your help with that.

And I expect to see you back at hq within the hour.

[microphone clicks off]

[Piers on screen] Because of your determination

and your commitment

that we are where we are today.

For the next five years Stonesmith

will shape the future of our country.

And while his win is bittersweet, his message

has clearly struck a chord with voters.

Stonesmith's team have given

everything to get him elected.

And with the tragedy of his wife's death giving

unwavering public support, nothing can stop Stonesmith

from moving forward with his vision for our country.

[Eerie whispers] You need to stop him.

Now is the time for us to honor that memory

and to honor the sacrifices that we have all made.

[Eerie whispers] Stop him! Stop him yes!

We will make good on our promise and that

promise is

[Eerie whispers] You need to stop him!

that we will keep Britain british.

[loud mechanical sounds]

The hard work begins now.

Begins here with us in this room.

We together can move forwards.

[Eerie whispers] You know what to do with it.

[Eerie whispers] Yes you do. You know what to do.

And so now it is time for us to honor her

memory and to honour the sacrifices that I know many of

you have made in order to make this day possible.

[Eerie whispers] Kill him.

So we can make good on our promise to

make Britain british and to unlock our potential.

[gunshot]
[crowd screams]

[credits music]

So are we ready?

Or what are we doing?

[Jim] Just two seconds.

You'll know when you have it,

You'll feel it in your bones?

Know when you have it, you feel it in your bones.

You'll feel it in your bones.

You'll feel it in your bones.

You'll feel it in your bones.

You'll feel it in your bones.

You'll feel it in your bones.

[eerie box whispers]

Get off me!

I want to get a key in the box!

You piss off!

I'm getting a key in the box!

I want to get the key in the box!

I want to get one!

Get off me. Get off me you bastards!

Let me get the key in the box!
