Professionals (2020) s01e09 Episode Script

1
Previously on Professionals.
You will need somebody on the board
to push Peter out.
And I get, what?
-What's the hell is wrong with you?
-What's wrong with me?
I came all this way because
there is a man who helped
a murdering psychotic freak.
Have a nice day!
I'm going to make him pay.
It's not like you caused an
international incident. Right Kurt?
agent Neumann!
Looking forward to our partnership.
I work with Tariq now.
With? Or for?
You'd better know the difference.
-What are you doing?
-Something my partner needs done.
I need to find Swann
before he gets out of the hot zone.
Or I'll have to answer
awkward questions to my boss.
Are you okay, Doc?
You're looking a little shaky.
Grace is sick. Marburg's disease.
In 24 hours we're gonna be
in our bed.
You'll have all the time in the world
to get better.
For me?
For you.
Something beautiful
for someone beautiful.
I don't bite!
But I might.
Hey, Kurt! It's me, Martha.
Hey, baby! Do I know you?
From the academy.
Gun!
Should her eyes be open?
There's no way she's awake.
Not after that elephant drink
they pumped into her.
Pretty freaky though.
Nurse, can we check her vitals?
Grace?
Hey, are you in there?
How many fingers?
Thank you for calling me back,
Madame Secretary.
I have a favour to ask you.
I have a family issue.
I need your help.
This is a passenger announcement.
Please do not
leave luggage unattended.
Hey.
Graciela, stop playing! Graciela!
Graciela, stop playing,
or we're going to be late.
I'm not playing, I just don't
want to step on any ants.
What a funny little girl you are.
Come!
I'm not stepping on any ants.
Not stepping on any ants.
-Hey!
-Hey
You're in there. She's awake.
Easy, easy. Easy.
-Hello.
-Hi.
Hi.
You've been asleep
for a little while now.
How are you feeling?
-Well, this is not Kinlasha?
-We're not in Kinlasha.
Kinlasha is about 9,000 miles
that way.
-Where are we?
-We're in New Zealand.
Surprise!
You look great.
It's so good to see you.
So happy to see you guys.
What happened?
Dr Feza is fine.
-Strong man.
-He is.
Yeah, he made it.
And
The
The outbreak has been contained.
For like eight or ten days now.
-You did it.
-That's good.
Yes, that's very good.
You scared me.
I'm sorry.
Don't do that again.
I'm sorry.
Thanks for doing this.
Did you talk to Elias?
Can I swing by?
She said "any time".
-Do you want to get cleaned up first?
-No, I want to see her.
Make sure she's okay.
Well, if you're not
going to take a shower,
rub this all over.
Maybe chew on it too.
That's very funny.
Ha, ha.
Hey, what does your boss use,
to get the stink off him?
Or don't you like
to think about that?
-So, you like shrimp?
-What?
Seems like you do.
The perfect food. Right?
Wow. You got me.
Guilty. What does that have to do
with your boss being a scumbag?
Nothing, really.
Except, all that shrimp you eat,
it gets farmed by slaves.
Slaves who work 20 hours a day,
knee-deep in mud,
so you can stuff your face
whenever you want to.
Your moral high ground, Kurt,
it doesn't exist.
Not for you or me,
or anybody.
If Vincent broke the law,
put him in jail.
But your shallow judgement
it bores me.
Shallow, I get.
But boring? That hurts.
Marburg is still threatening.
She is still critical.
-We need no phone calls in or out.
-Sure.
Hey.
Thank you.
Look at you eating toast.
So, I'm okay to travel?
Or is there another surprise
waiting for me?
We need you to stay here, Grace.
Which means, we need to keep you
isolated a little while longer.
I'm okay, I promise.
It's not about you, Grace.
My sister, Zora, is killing people.
Or having Luther Bruhn do it anyway.
Six board members.
Possibly Abe Geller.
And you could be next.
Listen
If Luther finds out that you're sick
with Marburg disease,
he won't stop until he finds you.
And my sister, Zora,
really wants to hurt me.
She knows the one way to do it
is to come after you.
Okay, I'll wait for you guys.
As long as it takes.
But you have to promise something.
You are bringing him back.
Okay.
-You got it.
-Okay.
Can I ask you something?
From professional to professional.
Were you actually interested?
Or was I just part of the mission?
See if you can tell.
I knew it.
Get out.
How about lunch again some time?
I promise, no shrimp.
Agent Neumann, I presume?
You tell me. Do I still have a job?
So good to see you.
I'm making a wheatgrass latte.
Wanna join me?
Why should you suffer alone?
Do I wanna know what happened
to your shoe?
Back in Africa, some place.
It was stolen by a one legged guy
in my cell.
The joke's on him.
Because he grabbed it
off the wrong foot.
So, everything's cool
with the hatchling?
Yeah, all systems go.
We have to make sure
nothing happens again.
Yeah, absolutely. Of course.
So, I've had to make
some pretty tough choices.
I'm leaving Europol.
Actually, I'm gone already.
It's the best thing, Soph.
And just to be sure,
I had to make an arrangement
to keep me and my family safe.
An arrangement?
That sounds ominously vague.
I'm sorry, Kurt.
I know how to shave, Zora.
You know it your way.
Maybe I can teach you
something better.
This little scheme of yours,
to ransom my brother back to me,
why did you do it?
I saved your brother's life.
Why did you do it,
knowing you were betraying me?
Exactly!
You don't even know.
You just wanted it.
Just keep the ransom.
I'll pay two billion dollars less
for Parallax.
How is that for a shave?
-Hey, Zora!
-Peter!
How are you?
Much better, now that your
boyfriend's not trying to kill me.
If you're referring to Luther,
I sent him in to help you.
Really?
The same kind of help that you wanna
give my friends at the fundraiser?
Peter, when are you gonna learn
that I'm your only friend?
You made that clear when you tried
to push me out of my company.
Our company, Peter.
If you keep chasing me,
it will be my company.
We will settle this soon Zora,
and face to face.
Stay away, Peter.
And don't come back.
Hi, Luther.
It'll only be worse for you.
Yeah? How about you and your
Bag of Hey!
Your father's recovering at home.
-Good.
-Maxwell's with him.
Jane?
Jane's been indispensable
in dealing with your father.
He won't listen to anybody else.
Jane's being helpful?
Maybe there is hope for her.
That's the good news.
Your sister's consolidating
a hold on the company.
She's announcing the acquisition
of Bruhn's security company.
We'll see about that.
First, take me to my father.
-Take him to AJ's after. No detours.
-Roger that.
What about you?
Gotta deal with my brother
once and for all.
Got something in mind?
Maybe something that takes care
of old business and saves him too.
-As long as I'm not too late.
-Good luck.
-He's in here.
-Good.
I've got it from here, guys.
-Watch the doors.
-Nobody's getting in here.
I'm more concerned
about somebody getting out.
-How's he doing?
-I think he's okay.
I always wished that he'd shut up.
Now I'm desperate for him
to say something embarrassing.
Don't rule that one out.
Of all the people in this family,
he's got the hardest head.
Apart from maybe you.
-I was really hoping I was adopted.
-You too?
I'm gonna top off his water.
I put tequila in. It's literally
the only way he drinks it.
Unbelievable.
Hey, Dad.
How are you doing?
-Zora.
-No. Don't worry about Zora.
Let me take care of Zora.
All you have to do is get better.
Too late.
Zora's gone.
Everything's gone.
Just rest. Okay?
There's no Swann Corporation
without Reggie Swann.
Dad?
Dad?
He's cool.
Grandpa sleeps with his eyes open.
Creeped the hell out of me
in the beginning too.
So, listen, Ponytail,
I need to ask you a question.
-And I want you to answer truthfully.
-Here we go
Relax, it's not
a father-daughter thing.
Do you know if there's an exclusive
entrance and exit into this house?
You mean, like a secret door that
Grandpa used to bring in girls?
I don't know what it's used for.
I don't wanna know.
-Yes.
-It does?
-Would you show it to me?
-Yes.
-Lead the way.
-Okay!
That does not taste good.
It's you?
If you prefer Tariq Basari,
I can make that happen.
Then, why don't you?
Because we both want him to go away.
And that can happen
if we work together.
You want me to trust you?
You're just a muscle man.
A paid thug who gives his word
to anybody.
Former agent Elias thought my word
was pretty good.
I got her a very tidy contract over
at Khan and Associates.
Health benefits, signing bonus,
eight weeks' vacation.
But what really sealed the deal, I
think, was the paid maternity leave.
Who did you give your word to,
Neumann?
Are you sure they're worthy of it?
You help me nail Basari
in return I do what?
Nothing.
You take your promotion
and your raise,
and you walk away,
while my brother and I, we disappear.
We become a distant memory.
After all, we're just dumb muscle.
And if I say no?
If you say no
So, what's it to me?
A stick-up gone wrong? Or do I
shoot myself for disgracing Europol?
Take a closer look.
You've met before.
Europol piglet!
Help!
Help!
This whole time You had it?
I'd never do a deal
with a psycho like Tariq
without an insurance policy.
So, what's it gonna be?
Are you gonna help me nail Basari?
Welcome to Swann Corp.
As you know, the Panacea project
has vaulted the company
to the forefront of medical
and technological advancements.
We are the future.
But with progress comes change.
Our strategy is to look forward,
create, pioneer, learn from our
mistakes and be visionary.
-Mr Swann.
-I know where we're going.
With that in mind,
I'm thrilled to announce,
on the last day of next month
Swann Rocketeering will send
another rocket into orbit.
The rocket will be fitted
with a telecom satellite
for a private client,
heralding the commercial exploitation
of Swann Rocketeering.
Please turn your attention to the
screen
for a special message
about our future.
-Nice speech, Zora.
-Leave
before you lose everything.
Or what?
Are you gonna choke me?
Are you gonna poison me too?
Are you gonna push me
down the stairs?
For you, Peter, something much worse.
Hello, everyone!
I am so sorry I am not there
to usher in this exciting new epoch
of the Swann corporation.
New challenges are best met with new
vision and new energy.
Please join me
in welcoming my brilliant sister Zora
as the Swann Corporation's
new Executive Chairperson.
I would also like to dispel any
misinformation about my departure.
It has nothing to do
with any financial impropriety.
I look forward to the audit, so I can
put these baseless rumours to rest.
Thank you very much.
It's called a deep fake.
Courtesy of your proprietary AI.
I warned you to stay away.
Good timing.
What are you gonna do, Peter?
Choke me?
Push me down the stairs?
-Mr Swann?
-Not now.
-I need to get you out of here, sir.
-Not now.
Sir.
The police are on their way, sir.
Whoops! I wonder what they'll find
when they open the books.
You know that Luther's
gonna steal it all. Right?
Luther works for me.
You poor kid!
You poor, poor kid.
What are the charges?
All financial crimes,
from what we know.
We've got trouble.
Let's go down here.
Mr Swann?
In here, sir.
Follow that Jeep.
Where's Danny?
Where's Danny?
Very close.
Not what I asked.
Danny, come on!
-Am I a trade now?
-Come on, you're coming with me.
-Where?
-Anywhere but here!
Come on! Let's go!
-Hey, take it easy.
-This is for wasting my day.
Where is it?
Here.
Very good.
Come on.
Well, it was very nice
to meet you guys.
And I will have
some great memories with this.
Kill them both.
You'll die first, Basari!
Right here, or in a cell.
It's your choice.
You think I came here
with no protection?
-Like a sniper?
-He's bluffing.
-You wanna take a chance?
-Why not?
You mean that sniper?
That's amazing, Vincent.
This is why you're the best.
But guess what!
I've got backup too!
-That hurts.
-Hurts more when they go through.
Come on!
Danny!
Danny, stop!
Come on!
Let me go!
You know I can't.
-You know I won't.
-Then I'll make you.
Danny, wait!
I mean it! I will kill you!
Danny!
Danny, get out of there!
There's a train!
Move!
Danny!
Finish the job!
Do it!
Do it!
-Is this some kind of joke?
-No.
If you want, I'll give you
his number. It's certified.
You can threaten me all you like.
Is this him?
-Sorry, Peter.
-Peter Swann?
-Yes.
-I have a warrant for your arrest.
No, no, no, no.
And?
This way, please, sir.
Where is Vincent?
Hello.
Peter is in custody.
Hey.
Get in there.
Where's your brother?
He took off.
Lucky for him.
Oh, that's too good.
-Too good.
-Shut up.
Really?
I wanted this for so long.
You need to get a life. Seriously!
Hey, put him back here with me.
Just one minute. Hey!
How does it feel to face the
consequences of what you've done?
For that, you've got to do
worse than handcuffs.
The problem is, you, of all people,
saved my life.
I won't say thank you for that.
But I will keep my word. I always do.
But never forget
I had you.
You can pick up your ride at the
police station if have the cojones .
Yeah
-Wrong side.
-Hey!
I'm German.
Do you actually like that guy?
Mm
Oh. Is it deep already?
Hmm
Don't get all mushy on me.
What's the good news?
Hey! I finally got you, Tariq!
You'll regret this.
-You guys never heard of deodorant?
-Kurt.
You stink!
Director Hans.
No one told me you were here.
That's because no-one knows I'm here.
Come.
-Please, sit down.
-Thank you.
What a great day for Europol.
We finally got him.
Do you suffer from migraine
headaches, Neumann?
Or do you just cause them in others?
Sir, if this is about Africa
Tariq Basari is going free.
Right now.
What? Why?
I'm not authorised to tell you.
So, if you repeat it, I'll deny it.
Tariq Basari
is a confidential informant.
And he has been since his trial.
He's a what?
Not just for us, for Interpol too.
Even the FBI.
He's an invaluable resource.
-You can't be serious.
-You were warned, Neumann.
You were told to leave him alone.
He murdered four people
trying to kill me.
He was this close.
His gun was right in my face.
Four people, because of me.
And I sympathise, Kurt, I do.
But we weigh
these decisions carefully.
Now, you've got to do the same.
You leave Basari alone,
and the Congo will be forgotten.
Maybe we can vest
your pension early.
-Trust me, your future is coming
-No, I don't trust you!
And you can take my pension
and shove it wherever you like.
Baby, it's time to wake up.
No breakfast?
I'm late to meet my boyfriend.
-You can't mean Luther.
-We're partners.
Partners are equals.
And Luther Bruhn is not your equal.
And you are, Alexi?
Maybe you and I
should talk about the future.
And what future is that?
One without Luther Bruhn.
So, you saw the press conference?
Yeah
And you do know that was not me.
You didn't hand over your duties
to Miss Swann?
No. No, I did not.
Of course not. Why would I do that?
That was a deep fake video.
Hyper realistic CGI generated image
that's nearly impossible to detect
as false these days.
Not bad work.
And these charges?
Zora's trying to frame me.
She and that parasite, Luther Bruhn.
Peter's experience in Africa
traumatised him.
Delusion is a common symptom om PTSD.
It breaks my heart
to watch him like this.
He's a danger to himself and others.
You're so right, Luther.
He needs to get locked up.
But that doesn't make it any easier
to watch him like this.
I'd do anything for him.
I can assure you, Mr Swann
will be looked after at all times.
Thank you, officer.
Madame Secretary sure delivered.
Well, let me gather the team,
get a judge's order,
try to sort this mess out.
I'll be back. Yeah?
I'll be here.
Once Peter's in the system,
we'll never get to him.
And there's a good chance Luther is
planning a jailhouse attack on Peter.
We need to spring Peter before goes
to court for his arraignment.
-From the station?
-That's our window.
Good afternoon, sergeant.
I am Mr Swann's legal counsel
with associates to see our client.
We have a judge's order.
-That all looks to be in order, sir.
-Thank you.
-Right!
-Mr Swann's legal team are coming up.
Counsel's here.
Well, your charges are 17 counts
of financial malfeasance
with intent to defraud.
Conspire
Later this afternoon
you'll be moved to the central jail.
Until then, you'll be placed
in a holding cell.
Stay there.
More instructions will follow.
How will you get instructions to me?
Are you gonna tap on a pipe
in Morse code?
I thought we'd do this
the new fashioned way.
Via cell phone.
They took three cell phones
off me when I got here.
Not the one under this table. Slide
it down your sock after we leave.
Somebody pushed the wrong buttons.
I think that's it.
They'll have it by the morning.
Thank you very much, Mr Swann.
Can I get a drink of water?
You're up.
Hi. Jack Smythe, solicitor.
Mind if I do a little outreach?
-Be quick.
-I'll be quicker than quick.
And be quiet too.
Jack Smythe, if you need a lawyer.
Jack Smythe, if you need a lawyer.
Hi.
Hi. Jack Smythe,
if you need a lawyer.
Jack Smythe. Give me a call.
Alright.
You wanna fill out the top part,
as well as the two bottom parts.
Give me a shout if you need any help.
No problem.
Out!
Everybody get out. Get out now!
Get out! Get out!
Move, move, move!
Get those guys out of here now!
Go, go, go!
Guys! Get the hell out!
Come on! Move faster!
We don't have time for this!
Hey!
Hey!
Please, Ma'am, this way.
Get out!
Stop taking so much time! Come on!
-What's going on?
-There's a possible chemical bomb.
Shouldn't you let me out?
There's no need to panic.
Why are you panicking?
I'm up.
-What?
-Got a call.
There's a bomb scare
where Swann's being held.
It's a diversion. Corbo's trying to
spring him. Get somebody there now!
EMERGENCY GC BOMB DISPOSAL
Okay, we've got three minutes.
Let's keep it short and sweet.
-Romy, you're with me.
-Got it.
-Trig, you clear the building.
-Copy that.
Stand back! It's poison.
It's spreading. It's gonna blow.
Alright, let's go.
Over here!
Hi.
Stay down.
Pull the mattress over you.
What? Just a minute! Wait.
Romy, can we talk about it? Romy?
Hey! What the? Wait! Wait.
Just wait a minute.
Romy!
We're supposed to be the cops.
But that's so unsatisfying.
Yeah, I know.
That's what Hacksaw would say.
Peter, we're gonna need you
to put this on.
What?
Okay, explain to me how this is
easier than posting bail.
-It's faster.
-Can we go?
Everybody move!
Bring it on!
Is that all you've got?
Sir, get in the car!
Get into the car!
Don't push your luck, Iron Man!
Come on!
Let's go! Come on! Go, go!
Out of the way!
Damn it!
They sprung him.
-What?
-They got to him first.
Your brother, he escaped!
-But
-Don't you say a word to me!
Not one word!
Okay, you have my full confidence.
I don't need
anything of yours anymore.
Clean that up!
Here's our drinks, Alexi.
Here are your drinks, gentlemen.
Enjoy.
To our big blazing hot future.
But we have to stick together.
These rich people don't come
from nothing, like you and me.
They don't understand loyalty
or trust.
Even Zora?
Especially Zora.
You watch, she'll stab me in the back
the first chance she gets.
I will die before I let that happen.
Miracle.
Half full, half empty.
At least not broken.
Who did you give your word to,
Neumann?
Are you sure they're worthy of it?
Your moral high ground, Kurt,
it doesn't exist.
Not broken.
Not broken.
To a great team!
Batman and Robin.
Sundance and Butch.
Cain and Abel.
Come with me.
-Where to now?
-Trust me, it's heaven.
I have a little surprise for you.
Nice.
You know why I said Zora
will betray me?
Yes.
She wants you to know
she will stab you in the back too.
-What?
-We're here.
Where is here?
Bet you never thought
you'd be back here again.
I'm too tired to think.
Home, sweet home.
I guess you get the bed.
Let's just be grown ups about this.
Gotta get you out of Ireland.
No way!
Every cop is gonna be looking
for you. Every cop in the country.
Luther too.
Let them look. My sister
is not getting away with this.
I hate to break it to you,
but she already has.
Hey, what would you do
if you were in my situation?
Go dark till I figured it out.
-Figure out what?
-How to hit back.
-It's what you want, right?
-No.
No
But it has to be done.
Will you help me?
-On one condition.
-What?
Don't snore.
Okay.
