Spooks s03e02 Episode Script

I'm innocent, Harry.
I didn't assassinate Sir John Stone.
You are a dead man in the North Sea, and will remain so until you prove otherwise.
I won't let you win, and I won't let you destroy me.
I probably won't tell them how I set you up.
How could you do this to us, Tom? TOM: 'We lie a lot.
What's frightening is when someone lies about you.
' HARRY: 'This is Adam Carter.
I bulldozed a few rules and seconded Adam from 6 to help us sort out this mess.
' - Harry, it's my right to do this! - You're involved - you'll blow it.
- I'm going in.
- You are not! - You've got my life.
- It's not about your life, is it? I'm out of your world now.
Nah! Come on, no-one resigns from what we do.
It nearly destroyed me.
It IS destroying you.
Maybe there's a lottery committee somewhere, throwing a dice to decide what we'll be day by day.
Spy, tramp, hero, traitor, DISTANT SIRENS BABY CRIES Well, that should get somebody's attention.
- I was lucky to get a 2.
1 .
- Yeah, so was I, actually.
PEOPLE CONVERSE, CONVERSATION PARTLY INAUDIBLE - Let me! Let me! - Would you? Just look, Sophie! MAN: This is a wonderful day! - Hello, Fred.
- Harry.
"In the flesh, though that flesh be older.
" - Erm - This is my family.
My wife Helen.
- Darling, this is Harry - Pearce.
Pearce.
- Pleased to meet you.
- How do you do? - My daughter Jemma.
- Ah, the graduate.
Congratulations.
- Liz, Sophie.
- Hi.
Would you excuse us for a moment? - HE LAUGHS "Activate" me? - You knew this would happen some day.
- But, Harry, that was 20-odd years ago! - 24 years! It was bravado, saying yes to you.
I didn't take it that seriously.
I did - young MI5 officer, you were the first sleeper I recruited.
I never heard from you! We never contact sleepers till we wake them.
Ah, no, no.
Whatever it is you want me to do, no.
My life'sset.
Nobel Prize winner, but did you really deserve it? - What the hell are you suggesting? - The work that won you the Nobel.
Discovering the chemical imbalance between neurons in the brain.
That basic research came from nerve gas experiments at Porton Down, which we made sure you were given.
What? You're saying MI5 manufactured my whole career? We opened doors for you, and to your credit, you barged through them.
That was the agreement.
We'd help you become an expert in your field, and if we ever wanted to call on you, we would.
What am I? Faust?! I've sold my soul to the Devil for my success?! Sold your soul to your country.
What's wrong with that? - Are you coming to our party, too? - Yes, please! 'The explosion destroyed an entire floor of a residential block in the East End of London.
'Footage from an eyewitness and security cameras 'shows the impact of the blast.
Due to the extent of the damage, the building faces demolition.
The deputy assistant commissioner, head of the Anti-Terrorist Branch, Greater London Police, made this statement earlier.
All the indications are that the device exploded at about 8.
15 this morning.
Two people are believed to have perished in the explosion.
- MAN: So this is a bomb? - First indications are yes.
'The remains of two people who were in the flat at the time of the explosion 'have not yet been identified.
No-one else was injured' Thanks, sweetheart.
Mum, where's Dad? He's upstairs still talking to that vile man.
I thought maybe he'll ask me.
At first, I was prepared.
Then, as the years went by, I forgot.
- Harry, I retire next year! - You're one of the most famous chemists in the country.
- People will believe you've done it.
- Done what? - Made red mercury.
- Oh Red mercury is a scientific impossibility - it doesn't exist.
- There are rumours it does.
- I've heard that stuff.
It's poppycock! It's science fiction! It's meant to be an explosive trigger that can fire a nuclear reaction in plutonium.
Incredibly efficient and totally impossible! Is MI5 reading comics? - You can't believe this! - I don't, but there are others who do.
- What others? Schoolboys on the net? - Serious people.
- What do you mean? Terrorists? - Yes, and you're going to pretend to make it and sell it to them.
Oh, this is laughable.
No, it's a deadly serious operation of vital importance to national security.
You can't make me.
Go away! What is going to happen is going to happen.
- What do you mean? - First, you'll get a visit from the police.
Go back into the woodwork, youspook! With pleasure.
SIRENS BLARE I've been in a cell all night! No explanation.
No solicitor.
I'll say nowt without a lawyer.
Oh So you're saying nowt, too.
Right! Put that thing on! I want to make a protest! BUZZER SOUNDS Am I in England?! GATES OPEN My name's Michael.
This is Sally.
And John.
- Hi.
- Hello.
We'll give you backup throughout Operation Flytrap.
I told Harry Pearce I'm taking part in no operation! Don't you think you owe it to the service to at least let us brief you? Really?! What, after I've had policemen drag me out of my house in front of my family and friends?! All right Brief away.
An explosion took place yesterday in Mortimer Street, EC22.
- We caused it.
- That bomb on the news? - Two people died.
- It's the top story for public consumption.
So no-one died? It was big lie.
No, the big lie is the bottom story we put out as a rumour - left-wing magazines, the net I had no idea lying had such a complex molecular structure.
- What's the bottom story? - That the two dead bombers Who never existed.
Yeah.
.
.
had an accident handling red mercury.
Red mercury is a myth! - But plutonium isn't.
- COMPUTER BEEPS Five weeks ago, some kids playing at the back of a house in Fulham found this.
One of them took it home.
And three days later, this happened to him.
Radiation burns.
He's critical.
The street was evacuated, the public told it was a gas leak.
But expert analysis later concluded that a quantity of plutonium was discovered in the basement.
There was an accident - and whoever was responsible had fled.
- Plutonium.
A terrorist organisation in London are trying to make an atomic bomb.
Puts cosy family parties into perspective, doesn't it?! The technical people have gone over the bits and pieces we've found.
They conclude that those behind this are having trouble making a trigger to set the device off.
- So who's doing this? - We don't know.
You don't know? None of the groups we're monitoring has nuclear material.
- These people are off our radar.
- We're blind.
God! We staged the explosion to create a rumour on the terrorist underground.
Red mercury has been made.
The perfect trigger for an atomic bomb is up for saleby you! But Even if it were possible to make this vile material, I'd never sell it to terrorists.
- Why would anyone think I would? - Your gambling habit.
You owe Park Lane Casinos PLC £600,734 and 42 pence.
- I've never been in a casino.
- You do the gee-gees and dogs, too.
And your wife doesn't know it, but you've taken out a second mortgage.
We have papers to prove it.
Er, your latest bank statements.
As you can see, your two savings accounts are cleaned out and your current account is rocky.
£1 1 ,052 Your money and savings'll be transferred to a special account at the Treasury.
- It's routine for agents in the field.
- I am a citizen in a democracy.
The security services can't go rummaging through my bank accounts! We can.
And so can the terrorists.
Your cover has got to be perfect.
You're selling the red mercury to get out of a desperate position.
That's why we've made it look like you've been questioned under the Anti-Terrorism Act.
- No, no, I'm walking away from this.
- Come on, Professor! You let Harry Pearce recruit you.
Don't you fancy it? Famous scientist? Famous spy? Oh, is that what's on my file? "Vain, susceptible to flattery"? You can do this.
We'll be with you every step of the way.
Catch these bastards.
You'll be a hero.
If I don'twhat'll happen? Well, we made you - we can destroy you.
Your reputation'll be mud.
Sign the Official Secrets Act.
- REPORTERS SHOUT AT ONCE - Stand back! Stand back! This man has been helping us with our enquiries on a serious matter.
But no charges have been brought and he's not under arrest.
- That is all I can say at this stage.
- Was it red mercury? No comment.
Well, you've really re-arranged the furniture in his life.
Brave guy.
He's an idiot.
He lived a lie, now he's paying.
- We could use you on obo.
- Excellent.
- Danny, time to hit the wife.
- Right.
CAMERAS CLICK, PEOPLE CHATTER They're in the garden! They're actually in the garden watching us! Oh, Fred - Talk to me! - Helen, you've got to trust me! You were arrested, in front of our children! - They just wanted to interview me.
- Yes, about an explosion in which two people died! You're all over the news! Fred Tell me what this is! - TELEPHONE RINGS - Don't answer that! I've got to read over tomorrow's lecture notes.
- Hello? - 'Mrs Roberts?' - Yes? - 'I'm ringing about your Visa card.
' Oh, yes.
Joint account with your husband? I'm afraid there's a problem.
Problem?! 'If I could take you through some security checks' 'From your password, could I? .
.
£7,612 and 45 pence in debt.
'I'm afraid charges will be levied for exceeding your overdraft.
' SHE SOBS - What was the point of rattling the wife? - A test.
If he tells her about the gambling debts, we're on.
Do you approve? - You're gamekeeper in this op.
- Yes, I am, aren't I? Malcolm! Am I patched through for image and sound? Insert jack plugs into line three.
Thank you very much, Malcolm.
Inserting now.
SHE SOBS Tell me! Fred?! .
.
Tell me! I I gamble.
YES! Yes! Game on! We're game on! HE LAUGHS - Where you going? - Work for flies! OK, great.
- 'When would you gamble?! - I'd tell you I was in a faculty meeting.
' And you'd be at the casino? Oh And the card being over its limit? Oh, no, no, no! You've not touched Not the Nobel money and the girls' trust funds! It's going to be OK.
- Oh, Fred - SHE SOBS If you love me at all, then tell me what it is you're involved with! I gave up my career for you! For the children, this house Then after all these years, you suddenly! Get away! I beg you! I can't bear the sight of you! WellI'll go to Aunt Julie's house in Leeds.
Good.
Right, then.
- All right? - Yeah.
Yeah.
Dandy.
Listen, Adam Carter? I've asked him to stick around.
There's nothing for him over at 6 at the moment.
Flytrap.
How's Fred Roberts bearing up? - He's playing the cover story to his wife.
- I mean emotionally.
Er I, er Fine.
I dunno.
Yeah, good, fine.
Tom, this is a vital and a dangerous operation.
Are you happy running it? You mean am I up to running it? After what happened with, er, Herman Joyce? Why wouldn't I be? Good, then.
Tom did you put another team on the house? I think we've got our first flies.
- They look professional.
- The car had false number plates.
- Surveillance means organisation.
- We must know who these people are.
- Lift them and ask them.
- No! They can see we're crawling all over Fred.
Our interest makes it seem like he can make the red mercury.
Do we get the family in Leeds to a safe house? No, we hang them out to dry.
- Don't we, Tom? - Yes, that's the trap.
Good.
Now we wait, we watch.
You'd think we'd blown a hole big enough to get someone's attention.
But nothing - nothing at all.
No.
- Photographed them? - Yeah.
Don't look like the local branch of al-Qaeda to me.
No, that's the trouble these days.
Anyone could be anyone.
- SHE SIGHS - How do you think Tom is? Oh, let's not even go there.
How do YOU think he is? - He kind of sets my teeth on edge.
- Yeah.
Hello? Who's this? It's more press.
- Mmm.
- What? Oh I think he's spotted us.
- No, can't have that! - I'll go! - I will - No, no! I'll go! Call of the wild, Zoe.
Ahem - Oh, she's mad! - HE SNIGGERS - I'm afraid I can't let you do that, sir.
- Why not, miss? - Are you accredited? - Agence Presse Français.
- Why France? - POOR ACCENT: Because I am French! Well, I freelance there a lot.
I'm going to Paris this weekend.
You could come.
- Just give me the camera.
- What are you - 6? picky about their glamour shots(?) - The camera.
- How will I get it back? It'll be returned to Presse Français tomorrow.
I could come to Thames House tomorrow to pick it up.
- Just give me the camera! - Or what? You'll karate chop my sensitive parts(?) Be gentle with it.
My camera is part of my body.
We'll submit it to routine tests.
- For red mercury? - Really.
Come on! That's what this is about, isn't it? Sites about red mercury are being pulled off the net! - You're just a fund of information! - Yes, I know.
What's your name? .
.
I mean, obviously, give me a false name.
Just one that I can think of.
- It's Zoe.
- Zoe! Is your real name as pretty? - Yeah! - Don't you wanna know my name? No, I'll find out your name.
And everything else about you.
Well, you do that.
Turn around.
Yes! Yes, yes, yes! Result.
It'll be all right.
It will.
What's he done? What's all this about him gambling? - I don't know.
- Tell me, Mum.
I want to help.
I don't think you can.
Go on, get inside.
It's cold.
Helen, Helen What am I doing? - What is it? - I don't know.
There's someone - Come to collect Daddy's gambling debts.
- Oh, Jemma.
- She can't sleep.
- Oh, come on.
My mobile's still dead.
Well, I see the molecular transfer of energy is suddenly wildly popular.
I'm sorry to disappoint anyone who's here to be stunned by details of my criminal career, but in this lecture we shall be considering questions of solid absorption or OPERA MUSIC PLAYS Where are they? Why don't they contact me?! They're waiting, like we are.
- Oh! I'm no good at this! - No, you're doing very well.
Oh! Bugger! .
.
Resonance.
- Right, I'll get a - How do you live like this? - How do you deal with the fear? - You get to like it.
Destroy you, though, won't it? - Perhaps.
- You know what Nietzsche said? "If you look into the abyss "the abyss will look into you.
" Pizza or lasagne? Please yourself.
HE SIGHS Will North? You really want to go out with this man? Yes.
Takes a good snap.
He's obviously troublesome.
Then again, if he wasn't, you wouldn't like him.
Have you filled in your S24? - Motion for Socialisation? - Embarrassing form, - but I'm glad you went through channels.
- Thank you, Harry.
- Any news on the op? - No, not yet.
Well, while we're waiting, you may as well live your life.
Er I'll try.
Thank you, Harry.
DOOR CLOSES, HE SIGHS ALARM BEEPS ALARM BLARES, TELEPHONE RINGS - ALARM STOPS - You'll have to change that now.
- Yeah.
Because of you.
- HE SNIGGERS So, Zoe What's your real name, then? - Zoe.
- Yeah, right(!) - Yeah, it is, William Regis North.
- How d'you know my second name was? Oh You've checked me out.
What, have you had me vetted? - Oh! - Very naughty.
Next you'll be telling me that 5 searched my flat.
Oh, wow! We've demonstrated already that a layered distribution of active catalyst is coupled with a diffusion barrier.
Therefore, one has to conclude, we're looking at a novel biphasic process.
Immiscible when cold, yet homogenising when heated, allowing ascillation to take place.
Thank you all very much.
Er Professor Roberts? Yes? Um I'm worried about the molecular structure of the gas under -21 4 Celsius.
He's talking to a student.
He'll be out in a mo.
- Enjoy your lecture? - It was really good, yeah.
- I've just got one more question.
- Well Are MI5 running you? We know they're watching you.
They're all over the campus.
If this is some kind of adolescent game you're playing, I suggest you stop.
I have the honour of being a messenger from the AI-F Command.
- We want to buy red mercury from you.
- That is a very serious request.
We're serious people.
What happened in the East End? I, um I made a small quantity.
They ignored simple handling instructions.
- But the red mercury was stable? - As much as it ever can be.
- You really have made it? - Oh, yes.
The holy grail of terrorism.
If there was a Nobel Prize for warmongering I'd pick that up as well.
- How much do you have? - None.
- What do you mean? - I use the university lab.
I'm not gonna pop it into a test tube on a rack at the end of the day, am I?! I want you to make us 5g.
You'll have to give me a lot of money for that.
$5 million.
- I want my family's safety guaranteed.
- Of course.
AndI wanna disappear.
The casinos of the world await you, Professor.
But if you are an MI5 trap, be very afraid for your family.
# We know where they are! # - 10 Elmet Crescent, Leeds.
- No How do you know that?! The revolution also has its spies.
Three days.
- Er How will you take delivery? - You'll get instructions.
DOOR OPENS Thanks for the advice, Professor.
- There's something wrong.
- What's going on? Tom, he's just standing there against the column.
All right, leave it to me.
They know where Helen and the girls are.
A student.
Danny.
.
.
Zoe.
What's his name? The student who talked to you, what's his name? I don't know him.
- I've got a visual.
- Want me to track him? Tom? - Do I track him? - Uhno.
Back off.
- Repeat - back off.
- Are you sure? I've still got a visual.
Yeah, we can't risk it.
Let him think he got away with it.
Come on, I'll take you home.
I haven't got a home.
I haven't got anywhere.
He must be a student somewhere.
Probably a postgrad.
Well, get on the network and help me, people! I tried to ring Helen.
The phone didn't work.
I tried her mobile, that didn't work either.
Is that you? Yes.
Don't you think of us as human beings at all? FredI know this is difficult for you, but can we just go through what this young man said to you again? He wants the red mercury in three days.
He'll let me know how it'll be collected.
What about my family? - They'll be all right.
- Can you guarantee that? - Yes.
- Liar! I can't go through with this.
We cannot stop this operation now.
The only way out now is to make it work.
I'm to go calmly into the lab and pretend to make more red mercury(?) Yes.
You know the really horrible thing? I could almost enjoy this.
When I was talking to that young man, I was this gambling, criminal chemist.
I was this other self.
People in the field in a foreign country have to do that for years.
Oh? And do they love it? What, like you think you do? No.
I warn you, Fred - that way madness lies.
No, you .
.
you have to put your real self in a box .
.
and only when you come home .
.
do you open up the box and say, "Hello, real me.
" What if the box got lost? You'd have to reinvent yourself.
I think you lot are clinically insane.
- No, we're professional.
- Bollocks! A spy's got to have a fatal flaw.
I think I'll make mine this.
He's asleep.
Look, I think we need to keep Fred Roberts happy.
- I think we ought to move his family.
- You know we can't do that.
- He'll go to pieces.
- Then lie to him! I'm destroying a man.
We still linked? Not linked.
Not any more.
HARRY: 'Tom, are you with us?' I can hear you.
What have we got on the student? So he's got CCTV still coming in.
We'll talk later.
Oh! Oh, I'm going to be sick! Fred, I've had your family moved.
They're in an MI5 safe house.
- They're not in Leeds any more? - No.
- Why didn't you tell me? - Security rules.
- So they're safe? - Yes, they're safe.
Thank God! Oh! Oh, everyone, I've got him! Lawrence Sayle.
24 years old.
Postgraduate chemistry student.
- His address is in Bristol.
- Well done, Sam.
Disappeared? We don't want to alarm you, Mrs Sayle.
Lawrence is a brilliant postgraduate, but sometimes students are highly strung.
- Not Lawrence.
- Any idea where he'd have gone? - Friends? - No.
- He wasn't going anywhere? - No.
If he was going back to Asia, - he would have told me.
- Asia? - Yes.
It sounds lovely.
- Where in Asia? It's called Kyrgyzstan.
I think he's got a girlfriend there.
Look.
- Would you like a cup of tea? - Very much, thank you.
Thank you.
Danny.
Chocolate biccies? Uh Mrs Sayle .
.
we have some very bad news.
Y Division have translated the cards for us.
They're all signed "AI-F Command".
They're in two groups.
Some make up a handbook on handling explosives.
The others are ideological.
They look forward to the overthrow of Saudi Arabia and the establishment of the House of Islam.
Al-Qaeda's stated aims.
These postcards They were sent from several towns in the Fergana valley.
A number of al-Qaeda personnel are known to have settled there.
- I've seen this postcard thing before.
- How do you mean? The Syrian secret service use it.
This AI-F Command, I think it's new.
I think it's operating like us, - surveillance teams - You mean, like a terrorist MI5? Yeah.
We've activated our sleeper.
They've activated theirs.
Lawrence Sayle.
OK, we let Lawrence contact Fred.
Don't pick him up till the money's paid.
Criminal evidence is the key.
The family, put Special Forces on the house in Leeds but out of sight.
This is about waiting.
Wide awake.
Hello, Professor.
These are the details of how to access an account in the Cayman Islands.
The money will be in the account one hour before I collect tomorrow night.
- Can I check that? - Oh, they'll pay.
They're honourable.
We want to collect it from you personally.
He's tortured about his family, so I told him we moved them to a safe house.
- Good.
- Well, we haven't.
- They're still in this house in Leeds.
- He can't ring to check.
We blocked lines.
You don't get my point.
We are tearing this man apart, putting his family at risk.
- We've got a unit 500 yards away.
- It was his choice to be a sleeper.
- He knew what he was doing.
- I don't think he did.
I don't think he does.
- Part of him wants to play the spy - What's your point? My point is the service is exploiting him.
- We're crucifying a man here.
- Fred Roberts or you? What? Nothing.
- I think we should cancel the operation.
- Why? - We're asking this man to walk off a cliff.
- What is wrong? - I don't have faith in the operation.
- Then you don't have faith in yourself.
- What? - Flytrap is working better than we hoped.
- We flushed out a vicious terrorist group.
- Have we? Our only lead is a set of postcards.
Have we found their base? No.
Do we know when they'll contact Fred again? No.
We're running a henhouse waiting for a fox to call.
- The university lab is one huge flypaper.
- Exactly.
So we're using Fred Roberts as bait.
- Of course! - Well, what are we? We're just automatons scared to wake up.
Tom when did you last sleep? - No! - I'm relieving you for eight hours.
Go home, have a few glasses of decent Médoc, sleep and be back in the morning.
Right.
You're doing a brilliant job.
We're going to have a great success.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Adam, when Tom's left the grid, would you come in here, please? BUZZER Tom.
- Is Zoe here? - She's at Thames House, of course.
- What's up? - I think Harry's going to take me off the operation.
- Probably put in Adam to run it.
- Why? - Cos I wanna close it down.
- But it's going well.
No, it'll end with everything shot to pieces and innocent people dead.
- I don't know what we're doing any more.
- Running an entrapment scam.
- It's immoral.
- We've done it often enough.
- No, it stinks.
- You were really hot for this! You worked the professor hard.
Come on! Immoral? What is this? All I want to know .
.
is are you for me or against me? Oh, Tom.
In doing what? You are one of them.
You're not awake.
You think you're awake, but you're not.
You think you know what you're saying, but you don't.
You're being really scary here, Tom.
I know.
I know.
OK.
It's brilliant, the op.
It's brilliant.
You're doing great work.
Thanks.
- Oh, Mike.
- We've got to leave.
- What? - Your family is still in Leeds.
- You said they were safe.
- We thought if we moved them AI-F Command would suspect you.
- You bastard.
- I'll take you to them.
- What? - You can all go somewhere safe.
I I don't know.
Professor you and your family are at risk.
I'm closing this operation down.
- I want you to come with me now.
- Is this a crisis of conscience? I thought you left all that in a box.
Please, I must do this for you.
Come with me.
I'm begging you.
Now.
All right.
- Is everything all right? - Yeah, we're just going for a cup of tea.
- Log yourself out, sir.
- OK.
- Maybe he took the professor home.
- No sign of him.
- Has he snatched him? - This happened to someone at GCHQ.
- What? - Their conscience exploded.
An exploding conscience? Tom?! I don't think so.
Three agents got killed.
- Danny? - I think Ruth may be right.
Right about what? Look, I'll explain to your wife what we asked you to do.
So you'll say, "Look, MI5 asked your husband to pretend to be a terrorist, but I personally don't think that's a good idea.
" And you, me, Helen and the girls are gonna run away from everyone forever.
- Fred, I have to get you out of this.
- Maybe I don't want to.
You don't realise what lengths the service will go to.
The war on terror changed the way they think.
- Look, Mike - My real name's Tom.
Peeling the onion, are you? Layer after layer of lies.
Yeah.
He's in a pool car.
He's trashed the tracker device.
- Went through four speed cameras.
- What's he doing? Making the professor disappear.
- Is that a guess? - A certain guess.
He's wrecking this operation.
What's the situation at the Leeds house? - Two AI-F Command men are watching.
- Tom's going to blunder in.
When he arrives, Special Forces lift everyone out.
No, sorry, Harry.
Let's try and save this.
How long to get to the house? - I want to go on with what we've started.
- No, you don't realise.
I realise a nuclear bomb could go off at any time.
The operation will go pear-shaped.
- They'll spit you out.
- Bloody hell! GUNFIRE - They'll do anything.
I told you.
- SIREN WAILS Get out.
I'm so sorry, Fred.
- Sir, can you go with these officers? - He's not going anywhere! - I'm collecting his family.
- Tom, this is wrong.
That will tell the terrorists the professor is working for us.
- What's the matter with you?! - I've woken up to this job! I'll go back.
I want to finish this.
- Thank you, Professor.
- They're right.
You'll have nothing! - He knows his own mind.
- No, he doesn't, cos we've pushed him! - Just stop it! - This is your operation.
Why wreck it? - After all we've been through, please! - You owe this to us.
