Boney!

Keller?

Keller?

Echo 3, this is Echo
3, do you read me over?

Priority.

My cover may be blown. Essentially
determines status of former SAS sergeant.

Active service record 71 to 76.

His name is Bodie. B-O-D-I-E.

Morning, Doyle.

Morning, sir.

We've got two of them down here.

One face we don't know and one we do.

Carl Spellman.

Lorry.

Only two of them, eh?

Well, there were three of them,
but you'd better ask him about that.

This is a lot interesting.

Connects with the bombings last month.

Passports, false IDs,
copies of government clearances.

And the photographs.

Very well organized. Recognize him?

Alex Richardson.

Well, I've been keeping a pretty close
watch on him. Look, here he is with his wife.

On his way to work in the city, that
kind of stuff. Terrorists. Italian at that.

Trailing one of our Whitehall
mandarins. Alex Richardson.

Yeah, in the, uh, Chair, Boards of
Inquiry, uh, Arbitration, that sort of stuff.

Used to be Principal
Inspector of Taxes. Oh,

we'd all like to put a
bomb under that lock.

Don't tell me you resent
paying your taxes, Doyle.

Well, with my bank balance,

I've got three and a half pound
of plastic explosives down here.

Assorted fuses, detonators,
timers, you name it, you got it.

You never know what you're gonna
find in someone's engine room, do you?

Not bad for a nice work.

Not bad at all.

Apart from the third man.

Yeah, well, I think we've got
a bit of a problem there, sir.

Keller?

Yeah, Jimmy Keller.

We were in the service together.

Yes, he is.

Yes, sir.

Yeah, we're a good team.
Worked together a long time.

Intelligence, demolition.

Yeah, but he was ambitious, moved on.

Of course, I jacked it in round
about then. Turned out with you.

The last time I heard of Jimmy,
he was in special, I think, Italy.

You've no doubt it was him this morning.

Ah, it's beginning to get messy.

The development with Richardson. I know
we're treading on the toes of the SES.

Or rather, they're treading on ours.

I think I'd better have a
talk with your old boss, Brodie.

Well, Major Nunn.

Aye.

He's a bit of a
handful, old Freddy, you know.

Shall I give him your respect?

I don't think he'll accept them, sir.

That man's hopping mad,
George, and I can't blame him.

Your boys jeopardized
his entire operation.

Now, hold on a minute, Freddy.
Let's get our perspective right.

They were acting under my orders.

We've been on to the PLA for
months now, and you knew that.

If we're trampling on
each other's territory here,

it's because you had a man on the
inside and I didn't know about it.

All right, okay, let's
save the recriminations.

No damage done.

And for a while there, Keller
didn't know how safe his position was.

How much do you know about him?

Only what Bodie's told me.

Bodie?

Is he towing the line
nowadays? Oh, pretty well.

He gets a bit exuberant now and
again. I know all about that, young man.

Well, that Keller, he's been working
pretty extensively in Italy since 1978.

During that time, there have been
periods, and I'm talking about months, George,

when he's been unable to
feed us any information at all.

He's very much in
isolation on this one. What

kind of a position is
he in? A damn good one.

Level of trust some of their
own people are envious of.

Which makes it even
more dangerous for him.

But let's bring this up to
date. What about Richardson?

That's a good question. I haven't
got a good answer. I can only think.

It's a recent development.

Keller hasn't given us the gen on it yet.

We've got the men we captured in the boat.

Spellman in particular.

We'll get it out of him.

I'd like to be present when you do.

All right.

Since we're pooling resources, we
might as well put our boys together.

Keller's not gonna like the
idea of a joint operation.

We all do things we don't like, Freddy.

I'm looking forward to meeting this bloke.

Oh, yeah? Yeah. Oh, you've always
been pretty cagey about your past.

Made me feel enlightened.

I wouldn't count on it, mate.

What's he like?

Oh, he's OK.

Oh, he's OK. That tells me a
lot. What about some details?

Look, you've read his
file. You've had details.

Something about him being
shot, what was all that about? Oh,

just on a recce one night, farmhouse.

He took a bullet and the
back meant for me, that's all.

That's nice of him. Yeah, and
he's never let me forget it either.

That's where he hangs out, is it?
Oh, yeah, he always did have toast.

You sure this is the right address?

You stupid bastards. Do you realize how
long it took me to set up that operation?

Two years. Two years' work
almost flushed down the can

because you two cowboys
came charging on that boat.

And I've been ordered
to work with you idiots.

Well, at least I hope your luck got
something out of that little fiasco.

She said, I'm not sure.

Keller, I knew you had some manners.

This one's all mouth, not a bit grateful.

Grateful? That's good
coming from you, Bodie.

I could have put a
bullet in you this morning.

Yeah, what about the
one I stopped for you?

See, I told you, didn't I?
Never lets me forget it.

What are you trying to do,
Carly? Make a deal with me?

With your record and what
we turned up in the boat,

there's not a lot of room to trade.

But we might alleviate matters.

If?

If you were sensibly cooperative.

What a nice place you got here.

Rent-free.

You handle the bombings last month?

Yeah.

Had nothing to do with it, you know.

Well, that's comforting.

You figured it out yet?

Yeah, rival faction. PLA just
knocking off the opposition.

They don't pay you for nothing, then.

What is it you want to know?

To begin with, the significance of this.

Right, let's get down to business.

Since you knocked off the
boat, I've been in the hot water.

I'd like to get out of it.

Yeah, well, anything we can do to
help, you know. How very considerate.

What were you setting up with Spellman?

Have you heard of Alexander Richardson?

Yeah.

High-class troubleshooter,
mediator. You know, arbitrator.

Everything from pay awards to
plumbing in the corridors of power.

They had a lot of photographs on him.

Wouldn't have thought he
rated a terrorist hit.

Well, the PLA's sometimes
moving to Mafia territory.

Matter of finance.

Easier than robbing banks.

You were going to
execute Alexander Richardson.

Got it in one.

That's what I was arranging. But
since you lot so nicely cocked it up,

I'm going to have to find
a replacement. I'm going

to have to be a good man. Up to scratch.

Got anyone in mind? Yeah.

You.

Welcome to the PLA.

Still on. I've got a new
man. What sort of man?

Ex-army. He's not too bright,
but he's a damn good marksman.

That's how you're going to set it up?

The two of you, together? Yeah, more
compact. Gives me less to worry about.

Just the working of the thing
and the when and the where.

Which are?

I'll tell you when I know.

I want to see this man!

Okay.

Who on earth would put out a contract on
a man like that? Hardly a public figure.

One of the faces... Wielders of
considerable power and influence.

What's happening?

We're transferring you.

That's it.

That's good shooting.
Yeah, not bad. Average.

You know what's expected of you?

Yeah, the basics.

What about payments?

I'll handle that.

Okay, fair enough.

You're in. You know, if I
didn't know any better,

I'd say you actually like
this kind of work. You're right.

You don't know any better.

What's it like, this
place we're holed up in?

Isolated.

It's pretty comfortable as farmhouses go.

Well, not sleeping with the cattle, then?

You can if you want,
whatever turns you on.

Listen, when we get up to
this place, play it pretty cool.

I've got somebody out there with me. I
just don't want you to overreact, that's all.

What do you think of it?
Yeah, it's not bad here, is it?

Great.

Ella?

Hi.

Bodhi, I want you to meet... I know.

Bodhi's gonna be
staying with us for a time.

You won't be too much trouble, will you?

What the hell do you bring him here for?

Business.

It's okay, just to ease off.

You've got nothing to worry about.

What is this?

You're really something, aren't
you? Don't overreact, he says.

I've got someone with me.
Just play it nice and cool.

Look, she's wanted by
Interpol on a load of dope

charges and association
with known terrorists.

Okay, great, so you've
done your homework. Now,

here's something you might not have read.

She was only marginally involved.

She's managed to
convince you of that, has she?

Well, only I know how you
don't. Oh, wonderful, isn't it?

I leave you alone for a
couple of years. What happens?

You get shacked up with some
half-baked terrorist groupie.

You all right? Yeah, fine.

Buddy, why? Mike, make them move it.

Amazing.

Absolutely bloody amazing.

How the hell did you lay it on?

I was out of there before
I knew what was happening.

What the hell are you talking about?

What are you doing here? What do you
mean, what am I doing here? I was sprung.

You idiot!

Going somewhere?

You'll never do it. Told you.

I get the feeling we
don't have much of a rapport.

No.

Why is that?

Maybe it's something to do
with your friends in Munich.

They're no longer my friends.

They never really were.

Just fell into bad company, did you?

Something like that.

You don't believe me, do you?

I have no real
involvement with them. Look.

I believe you. Even without looking
between your toes and behind your knees.

Can I trust you? There's
got to be something in it.

What about you?

I don't trust you as
far as I could throw you.

And how far is that?

I'm afraid there's no doubt about it,
Mr. Richardson. They want you dead.

In God's name.

Why?

Because you're
politically dangerous to someone.

Someone rich enough to put out a
very lucrative contract on you.

Go on.

The contract was
placed outside the country.

A neat way of confounding the
authorities in the event of your demise.

The PLA picked up the job.

I'd like to know who the devil it is.

James Sutherland.

Sutherland and Secker Industries?

The man's a multi-millionaire. What
would he want having me? Oh, yes.

The Ligny inquiry? Yes, indeed.
I'm all perhaps forewarning him.

How did you get on to Sutherland?

Oh, staged a little escapade,
which led us to the local broker.

He talked.

So what happened? We go through with it.

We've got a man on the inside.
With him pulling the strings,

we can arrange the whole thing.

You mean rig my assassination?

Yes.

Why don't you just arrest Sutherland?

Not enough on him. But we will
have. We've got his office bugged,

his home phone tapped, both
places under constant surveillance.

And we're setting up a monitor in the
radiophone in Sutherland's car right now.

There's not a move he can make
without us knowing about it.

What's the matter?

He's got a frequency scrambler operating.

Oh, great. Now what do we do?

Well, you're just
going to have to go around

and unscramble your scrambler, aren't you?

I won't need the car for a
couple of hours. Thank you, sir.

We've got a meeting with Benedek.

He wants to start the ball
rolling on Richardson's head.

Sounds like he's getting impatient.

Simms, testing.

Can you hear me?

Loud and clear.

You'd better not hang about.

All right.

What's this?

I've prepared the plan. It can be
put into operation quite quickly.

This is a blueprint of Richardson's home.

You can see the security system
marked in here in... Wait a minute.

This is my
responsibility. If you want to take

over that
responsibility, you better say so.

I'm not disregarding your position.

My only motive is to make sure
that there are no more delays.

There will be no more delays. If you
want to organize this whole thing,

then count me out. Either it's down to
me or you find yourself another man.

If he walks out, I
suppose you walk out with him?

That's right.

All right.

All right, but I can't
afford to waste any more time.

You won't have to.

Richardson is chairing an
inquiry. They meet tomorrow at three.

He's made the trip before.
He never varies the route.

He always passes along
here. That's where we take him.

Follow them. I want to
know every place they go.

The signal's coming
through from Sutherland's

car now. Switch it on to the speaker, sir.

Jonathan, about the Italian
transaction, I'm still waiting for a call on that.

Sounds like a lot of money. Doesn't it?

Yes? Mr. Sutherland, I'm phoning
on behalf of Renato Trabaioli.

We can now confirm our operation.

It's set for tomorrow afternoon.

Good.

Tell Trabaioli I'll be there to meet him.

It was arranged. I will.

Goodbye. Trabaioli.

Defense lawyer at the Milan trials.

Yes, all right. Thank you very much.

Travioli's in Rome.

Arriving here tomorrow, 1500 hours.

Better let Bodhi know
what's happening at this end.

Yeah, he's calling me later. All right.

Four-five?

Four-five?

Come on, Doyle, wake up!

Doyle, where the bloody hell are
you? All right, all right, calm down.

I was just getting some air.

How's things with you,
Robert? Listen, it's tough

out here, mate, you know, in the country.

I'm really rough in it. No
creature comforts at all.

Still, we're struggling along.
Any news on Richardson, over?

He's gonna get an
interrupted journey on his

way to the inquiry
tomorrow. I see. Busy day.

One of the boys in Rome is coming
over with a bundle for Sutherland.

Oh, that's
interesting. That's very useful.

Hey, do you know who Keller's got
staying with him here at the farmhouse? No,

but I've a feeling
you're just about to tell me.

Sheila Kaufman. What, this Sheila Kaufman?

Yeah, not exactly a hard case,

but a bit of a handful to have
travelling round with you. Yeah,

he's got a lot of
nerve, that mate of yours.

Where are they going to hit Richardson?

Are you sure you've got
the energy left to do this?

It's not as heavy as I thought it
would be. It'll do the job. Are you sure?

Of course you're sure.

Didn't see old man
Benedict. He was there all right.

You enjoyed that, didn't
you? Come on, admit it.

Are you all right?

I couldn't breathe
again, I think. Just winded.

I should be black and blue
all over. Yes, I'm sorry

about that.
Unavoidable. It could be worse.

The next thing we have to do is
issue a bulletin to the media,

informing them of your assassination.

And then?

And then we move in in
Sutherland, right up to the top there.

What are you stopping here?

You know the
rendezvous, eh? We can go direct.

37 and 12 for one.

Go ahead, 37.

I don't know what's going on.
There's something bloody funny happening.

The killer's gone mad. What do you mean?

Well, he's just hit me over the
head and dumped me out the car.

That doesn't make sense.

It's not a man. Send
someone to get me, will you?

Senior government official
Alexander Richardson was shot

and killed on his way to
a meeting this afternoon.

The car in which he was
travelling suffered a puncture,

and he was about to be transferred to a
second car when the gunman opened fire.

It's understood that
Mr Richardson was about

to chair a session of the
Lidney Inquiry, one of the long...

I'll keep it, thank you.

May I take your case, sir?

He's turned into the building.

Ayori's car has just arrived.

Okay, Alpha One, they've done it.

Excellent.

You know where to go, yeah?

I don't know.

Bob's about 70 miles an hour.

Where were you going?

I'm not going to tell you.

500,000 pounds.

Wait a minute!

Bloody hell, what's
going on? I don't know.

I don't know any of the details.

Of course you know.

I was just supposed to
meet him, that's all. Where?

Where? At the warehouse. How long's
that been going on? I don't know.

A long time, maybe. Come on, tell me.

Yes, of course, on the inside he would.

It's a payoff, isn't it? Eh?

Come on, isn't it?

You knew about it! It's a
payoff! It's time to rip him off!

What are you doing? All right, I'll set a
car for you in a day or two, maybe three.

You can't leave me here
like this, you bastard!

You're supposed to be his friend!

Go ahead, 37.

Keller's found a way to rip him
off to the tune of 500 grand!

Bodie, he already has it.

Dentro là, l'ultimo piano.

Su di là. And let's go.

Shut up!

How bad is it?

It's not good.

No, you're all right.
It's going to clean through.

I'm floating. Listen. Yes, talk later.

That's... that's another
one you owe me, Bodhi.

No wonder he resented a joint operation.
