(PANTING) Okay, let's go.
Simone?
I think you should be very proud
of what you did tonight.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYING)
What do you want?
I need you to get a message
to the President for me.

We found this picture
on Simone's sister's Facebook.
This is Antoni Kaminski.
He served under Pearce
in the Foreign Legion.
He was killed in the ambush.
How did we not know about this?
- They were dating?
- RUBEN: Yeah.
We looked into everyone
who served with Pearce.
They weren't married,
and there's no official record
of their relationship.
- We should talk to the sister.
- ZARA: Okay.
ZARA: Thanks.
At least Simone
didn't sell out for money.
I guess that's something.
It's never been about money for Pearce.
He burned 100 million euros.
So why did DCX Capital
finance his operation?
What's in it for them?
The best time to make money
is when there is blood on the streets.
- Someone said that.
- Wow. You're so profound.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYING)
There somewhere you need to be?
Erm, I have a hospital appointment.
You're going away?
I'm going to stay
with friends in Nantes.
I thought you said you had
a hospital appointment.
I'm going after.
Simone told you
to leave the city, didn't she?
No.
I-I told you, I haven't heard from her.
Did Simone give you this phone?
It's a burner phone, isn't it?
There's a bomb somewhere in Paris.
If it goes off,
thousands of people will die.
Er
Simone messaged me last night
and she told me to go,
to, to leave the city.
I'm sorry.

SIMONE:
At least now I have a hostage.
VINCENT: Zara! Zara!
We know about Antoni.
We know he served with Pearce.
He was killed in the ambush.
You wanted to help Pearce
get revenge on the people
responsible for his death.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYING)
If Pearce detonates the bomb,
thousands of people will die.
You don't want that.
Your sister's still in Paris.
She's with friends in Nantes.
She's at her apartment with Ruben.
(BREATH TREMBLING)
She's waiting to talk to you.
You call Ruben.
You tell him
to get her out of the city.
I'm gonna take out my phone
You should talk to her.
Get him on the phone now.
She chose to stay
because of you! Talk to her!

Zara, are you okay?
- (SIMONE GROANING)
- Yeah, I'm fine.

Simone?
Simone?
(PEOPLE CHATTERING INDISTINCTLY)
Madame la Presidente.
Okay, So the bomb is inside a van
parked in Avenue de Saxe.
According to Simone,
Pearce has a spotter
in an apartment
on the north side of the square.
He checks in
with Pearce every 15 minutes.
And Pearce has cameras
in the apartment and inside the van.
We're gonna intercept
the feed from the cameras
and put them on a loop
before we move in
and take out the spotter.
Bomb disposal officers
will attempt to disarm the device.
You all know what you have to do.

RICHARD: We can't risk
our involvement being exposed.
If Pearce survives this,
you know what you have to do.
FREJA: I don't think he has
any intention of surviving this.
I hope you haven't
got too close to him.
I'll handle it.
(DIAL TONE RINGING)
THEA: I can't talk.
I'm late for work. Sorry.
Thea, listen to me.
You need to leave Paris right now.
THEA: Why?
I can't tell you.
But you need to trust me.
Please, just trust me.
THEA: Okay.
Go to Charlotte's.
THEA: Okay. Fine.
What's going on?
Call me when you're there. I love you.
(MOBILE BEEPS OFF)
You gonna report me?
If I were you
I'd do the same.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYING)
I remember watching a documentary
about nuclear war when I was a kid.
I had nightmares about it
until I was 12.
What happened at 12?
I watched Jaws.
My irrational fear shifted to sharks.
I hate swimming anywhere
I can't see the bottom.
What you scared of?
Nothing.
Drop the macho bullshit,
we could be blown to pieces.
Horses.
- You're afraid of horses?
- Terrified.
Why?
The way they look at you
They
- They creep me out.
- (ZARA CHUCKLING)
That's just weird.
(CONTINUES CHUCKLING)
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYING)
LUCAS: Okay, I've hacked
into Pearce's video feed.
We're monitoring the cameras.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYING)
(SPEAKING IN FRENCH)

(PEOPLE CHATTERING INDISTINCTLY)
There's no time to deploy the robot.
I will have to take a look myself.

(TOOL WHIRRING)
(BREATHING HEAVILY)
There is a metal container,
approximately 100 litres.
I see an IMO dash mobile phone
attached to the motherboard.
There seems to be
a coded signal generator.
I need an X-ray to see what's inside.
(POLICE RADIO
CHATTERING INDISTINCTLY)
The uranium is packed in plastic,
probably Semtex.
There's seven bars of TNT and about
200 kilos of ammonium nitrate.
The contamination zone is going
to be bigger than we thought.
Can you disarm it?
There's two separate
anti-tamper devices.
I can bypass them,
but it will take time.
- How long?
- Twenty minutes.
If I rush it, there is a chance
the bomb will detonate.
We don't have 20 minutes.
And Pearce is gonna know
there's something wrong
when the lookout doesn't check in.
Okay.
If we can get the bomb
to the tunnel Rue Citroen,
we contain the explosion,
minimise the fallout.
We're really doing this?
- Fuck
- Okay.
(SPEAKING IN FRENCH)
(ENGINE STARTS)
Where did you learn to do that?
I stole a lot of cars
when I was younger.
(SIRENS WAILING)
(MOBILE RINGING)
It's Thea.
Thea?
THEA: You said I should call you
when I arrived at Charlotte's.
Where are you?
I'm with Vincent. I'm driving.
THEA: Are you okay? You sound weird.
Yeah, I'm fine
I have to go.
Okay, but call me back later, please.
- Wait.
- What?
I-I just
want you to know that I love you.
THEA: Why are you saying that?
Are you in danger?
Do you remember when we
went dancing at Les Nuits?
And we walked home as the sun came up.
Wh-why are you talking about that?
I don't think I've ever been
as happy as I was then.
You're scaring me.
I love you.

Pearce must have reset them.
(MOBILE RINGING)
PEARCE: You have something
that belongs to me.
You're prepared to kill
thousands of innocent people,
is that really what you want?
Your President's
chosen to save herself,
rather than her own people.
- How can that be right?
- Don't do it.
There must be another way.
Bring her to me.
I can't do that.
You told me she trusts you.
She listens to you.
You can get close to her.
It's impossible.
I'll never get her away
from her security.
Then I'm arming the bomb.
Hundreds of innocent people
will die in her place.
(MOBILE BEEPS)
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYING)
(CARS HONKING)
(PEOPLE CHATTERING INDISTINCTLY)
Okay
I'll bring her to you.
Walk away from the van.
Pull the police units back.
The deadline still stands.
You bring me the President,
or I will detonate.
(CARS CONTINUE HONKING)
You said you'd bring him the President.
He was going to detonate the bomb.
I had no choice.
It buys us some time
to evacuate the city.
(SPEAKING FRENCH)
(MOBILE BEEPS OFF)
Madame La Presidente
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYING)
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYING)
The French president has ordered
the evacuation of central Paris.
We'll let the markets slide lower,
before we cash out our position.
NEWS ANCHOR 1:
One hundred thousand people
have been forced to leave their homes.
The roads out of the city
are heavily congested.
ANCHOR 2: The French stock market
has gone into free fall
as investors react
to the news of the evacuation.
THEA: Zara, are you okay?
You sounded so weird.
I was so scared.
I know, I'm sorry.
I thought it might be
the last time I spoke to you.
Don't say that, please.
When are you leaving Paris?
Soon.
Okay, well, come here.
Come to Charlotte's.
It's away from the city.
JACOB: I don't trust Vincent
to deliver The President.
We need her as an insurance policy.
Understood.
(REPORTER SPEAKING IN FRENCH)
There's a way to stop Pearce
detonating the bomb.
We pretend to hand the President
over to him.
She gets close to him.
- And then what?
- She kills him.
What?
Are you out of your mind?
Pearce will kill her.
She asks people to risk
their lives all the time.
She'll never agree to it.
She wants Pearce dead more than anyone.
What if you can convince her
that this is the only way
to save her presidency?
Pearce is blinded by his hate for her.
He won't expect it.
Even if I could convince her,
I mean, her team will never allow it.
Well, then you have to
get her away from them.
