Revolution: Episode 2
1 Gracie, it's me.
Zoey.
Something's come up.
Could really use your advice.
- (GUNSHOT BLASTS) - (GRUNTS) - You're being deployed? - Malaysia.
(YELLING) Colonel Alexander Coltrane! MAN: Basically, special forces.
They were the last to see her alive.
- MAN 2: Move! - MAN 3: Just wanna talk.
- (BULLETS RATTLE) - (GRUNTS) Sergei! Inspector Amy Long.
You were lucky we showed up when we did.
See if you recognize any of these faces.
SGT.
THOMAS MCALLISTER: He was at the ambush.
You're sure? ALEXANDER COLTRANE: Shun-Ko Triad.
At the top, Kim Wei-Fong.
Lao Shu is his enforcer.
Davis mentions Alpha Group looking for a missing package.
GRACIE NOVIN: I know what the Russians are looking for.
250-killaton warhead.
Do you know where the Triads are keeping this missile? That's where they're hiding the nuke.
Now, who's paying the Triads? - Kingfisher.
- Kingfisher? COLTRANE: Additional tangos inbound.
- (KNOCKING) - MCALLISTER: Move in.
(YELLING) Every exit's compromised! (BULLETS RATTLE) Can you hear that? - (SNIPER RIFLE BOOMS) - (HELICOPTER WHIRRING) - (INDISTINCT SHOUT) Go! - Go away! Let's go! [SHIP HORN HONKS.]

Intel better be solid, especially considering the mess your team left at the Hanto Building.
- Radio check, over.
- Good check.
Appreciate being allowed to participate, Inspector.
Intel retrieved from the Hanto Building places a package matching the stolen missile specs at Warehouse Foxtrot.
GPS coordinates have been provided.
Must be nice, getting back in the saddle.

- Clear left! - Moving forward.
[INDISTINCT SHOUTING.]
Zero, there is nothing in here.
Repeat, nothing.
Well, that was worth getting out of bed for.
[BOTH SPEAKING FOREIGN LANGUAGE.]
It's a transport crate from the plane.
Yeah, it was definitely here before.
[TENSE MUSIC.]
Let's get eyes on any local surveillance in the area, see if we can't see when and where it was moved.
We'll handle that.
Not you.
I put myself on the line to get this op sanctioned based on intel from an illegal raid.
I have no choice.
It's got to be a total lockdown with citywide checkpoints.
All British military operations here are effectively suspended.
Inspector Leong.
[THE HEAVY'S "SHORT CHANGE HERO".]
I couldn't see where you coming from But I know just what you runnin' from And what matters ain't the "who's baddest" But the ones who stop you falling from your ladder Come on, feelin' like you're feelin' now And doin' things just to please your crowd When I love you like the way I love you And I suffer, but I ain't gonna cut you 'Cause this ain't no place for no hero This ain't no place for no better man This ain't no place for no hero to call home This ain't no place for no hero This ain't no place for no better man This ain't no place for no hero to call home [BIRDS CHIRPING.]

[SOFT DRAMATIC MUSIC.]
You okay? We'll get whoever's responsible for this.
[SIGHS.]
She was 27 with a kid.
You know, it was a routine op.
She didn't deserve it.
[RISING DRAMATIC MUSIC.]
[GUNFIRE ECHOES.]
Well, that's a very interesting read.
You seem like a decent soldier.
Military Intelligence, Spetsnaz field training, seconded to Alpha Group.
Going to give me a medal, Colonel? I'm gonna ask you why you're still here, why you've ignored direct orders from your CO to return home.
My mission is not complete.
You've been recalled, op shut down.
Colonel Beshnov is only worried about his reputation.
I'm not surprised.
An illegal Russian op going loud and public is the kind of thing that fuels sanctions down the line.
Frankly, you're something of an embarrassment.
We were set up.
[SIGHS.]
Triads don't want this missile for themselves.
It is this Kingfisher.
And have you any idea who or what that might be? But if they can pay to steal a missile, maybe they can pay someone off in Moscow, find out my team's safe house location.
Colonel, we we are both looking for the same thing here.
Maybe we could be of some use to each other.
And why on earth would we want to work with you? 'Cause you are at a dead end and I have the way out.
Directorate A files on the missile theft.
You're offering to share classified Russian intelligence.
Isn't that technically treason? Only if I come home empty-handed.
I will need to contact my handler, Lieutenant Pavel Kuragin, Alpha Group support.
[KEYS TAPPING.]
"Kuragin.
" There we go.
Former FSB counterterrorism.
Basically a go-between for Alpha field agents and their CO.
So he's their computer guy.
That's a little reductive.
Let's see, he trained with the Foundation for Advanced Military Research, specialized in telecommunications, information infrastructure, network operating system, variants of SQL, Python, and, uh, yeah.
He's a computer guy.
If you do go to see your handler, you wouldn't be going alone.
This is on our terms.
Part of me thinks she's legit.
I mean, we all saw what happened to her team.
But part of me also thinks this ends with us putting a bullet in her, or her putting one in us.
Oh, you're a little beaming ray of Aussie sunshine today, aren't you? Now, before anyone puts a bullet in anyone, why don't you two go and have a word with this computer guy? [DISTANT SIRENS WAILING.]
[CAT MEOWS.]
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC.]
[KNOCKING ON DOOR.]
Pavel.
Katrina.
[SIGHS.]
Come on.
Put down the gun.
They're with me.
- [SPEAKS RUSSIAN.]
- Novin, Wyatt.
British Military Intelligence.
Yeah, I know who the fuck you are.
I was asking her what she is doing with you.
Let's call it a cross-cultural exchange.
[SPEAKING RUSSIAN.]
Hey, if you're gonna whisper, you do it in English.
Our terms, remember? Did you tell the Colonel? I told him I couldn't contact you, which was pretty much the truth.
Katrina, think about what you are doing.
Someone doesn't want us to find this missile.
You saw the others killed in front of you.
Maybe it's affecting your judgment.
I'm sorry, I No, I can't let you take that.
[TSKING.]
[TENSE MUSIC.]
You promised you would help.
Pavel, for what it's worth, you know, - we all want the same thing.
- Really? Because I would like you not to be here stealing information that does not belong to you.
They will think we are defectors.
What do I tell the Colonel? Just tell him you are still looking for me, Pavel.
Okay? I will be in touch.
[OVERLAPPING CHATTER.]
- You okay? - Fuck you.
Got anything? Yeah, a bad feeling.
We report to Coltrane.
Coltrane reports to High Commissioner McKitterick.
And right now, McKitterick is looking pretty damn cozy with the Triads.
[SIGHS.]
Son of a bitch.
That's why Davis kept McKitterick in the dark.
She knew he was dirty.
You're accusing the British High Commissioner of colluding with the Triads, passing on intel.
Well, they knew we were coming to that warehouse.
Someone tipped them off.
I agree, but this is circumstantial.
So because he's a High Commissioner, we just sit on our hands and say "fuck it"? No, we find corroborating evidence, like his financial records.
I don't think that's gonna be easy, sir.
No, it's not.
Unless, of course, you were concerned about how Davis didn't trust him, so you requested access to his system, ostensibly to review her field reports but, in reality, to install proprietary software to brute-force access to his private accounts.
[LAUGHING.]
- Oh, I like you.
- Thank you.
Looks like McKitterick has six-figure gambling debts to various bookmakers and casinos, and I would take an educated guess that these are all run by the Shun-Ko.
And if I was trying to smuggle a nuke out of the country, a diplomatic pass would be a big help.
Brings you right through those borders and checkpoints.
McKitterick has the power to shut us down.
We're going to need backing from local authorities.
McAllister, see if you can't convince Inspector Leong to give us her support.
Uh, that might be a bit tricky.
She's not exactly my biggest fan at the minute.
Well, then lie to her.
Tell her what she needs to hear.
You've got this.
You're one of the most capable soldiers I've ever worked with.
Thanks.
See? It's easy.
The rest of you, on me.
I need to hear what our High Commissioner has to say for himself.
[SOFT LAUGH.]
Hmm.
Good one.
[SOFT LAUGH.]
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC.]
[OVERLAPPING CHATTER.]
I meet a lot of people.
Every day, I mean.
- Comes with the job.
- This isn't "people.
" This is Kim Wei-Fung, head of the Shun-Ko, an organization that you coincidentally owe thousands in gambling debts to.
Alexander, you've already ruined your career once.
Are you sure you want to double down on that? I wish I could help.
You know, there was a time I might have broken your bloody arm for lying to me.
Thankfully I have calmed down.
Do you know, I think I know what this is all about.
- James - This is Afghanistan If they want something from you This is the Arbakai, this is IEDs on the road.
This is you trying to make amends for what you did.
I am trying to fucking help you! [SIGHS.]
Please.
We have a limited window in which to track this missile down.
The Triads will need your help to get it out of the city.
Let's say they did want something from me.
And I refused.
Who do you think they'd target? [CHILDREN LAUGHING.]
We could protect them.
There's, what, four of you? Once you've gone, I mean we already live behind walls and gates, and it's not enough.
[PHONE BUZZING.]
Something important? I'm backing the recommendation for your team's removal.
Sorry.
Truly.
Zero, we have eyes on Alpha.
Vehicle is on the move.
Stay on him.
Copy that.
[ENGINE TURNS OVER.]
So now we grab him, yes? Without the backing of the authorities we'd just be a bunch of rogue operatives running around waving guns, kidnapping people.
Works for me.
We just need Mac to come through for us.
[DISTANT CHILDREN SHOUTING.]
[TENSE MUSIC.]
Inspector Leong.
How you doing? McAllister.
Come inside.
Interesting décor.
These all concerning Laoshu? [SCOFFS.]
I mean, there's dedication, then there's personal.
Laoshu is my father.
My mother thought he was an insurance salesman.
She had no idea about his real life, until the day a rival Triad gang tried to take him out.
They missed him.
Didn't miss her.
How old were you? I was only four.
But I was lucky.
Brought up by a lovely couple who didn't even mind when their daughter announced she wanted to be a cop.
Day of graduation from the Academy, he's outside, waiting for me.
Must have been an interesting conversation.
He said he was sorry, said he'd do anything to make amends.
So I asked him to leave, for good.
And now he's back.
If my team was reactivated, we could take him down.
[LAUGHS.]
If you're going to try emotional manipulation, at least make it subtle.
Look.
That that wasn't meant like that.
Come on, you don't really give a shit about me.
I'm just another obstacle for you to overcome.
Look, this was a courtesy call.
A nuke like that in the wild is a six-figure death toll on a good day.
You're exactly what I expected.
Whoa, what you don't know anything about me.
- How can you say that? - Really? What have you got outside all this? Friends? Family? A real life? Uh, you've got criminal profiles on your fridge and you want to give me a lecture? You're very perceptive, Sergeant McAllister.
What are you gonna do? Arrest me? Again, very perceptive.
If I have to.
[HANDCUFFS CLICK.]
I don't have the keys to these, you know.
[SCOFFS.]
You're kidding me, right? Yes.
I'm kidding.

He's leaving his security detail behind.
He's getting inside the racetrack.
Apparently the Shun-Ko own a majority share in the place.
I have a bad feeling McKitterick may be meeting with them.
Stay on him.
And remember: strict rules of engagement.
We can only observe unless something goes wrong.
Copy that.
Which means we can't touch McKitterick until the Malaysian police give us the okay.
Consider that underlined twice.
[OVERLAPPING CHATTER.]
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC.]
- Oi! - What? What are you doing? You know our orders.
Your orders, not mine.
To observe until we get permission to engage, but what if the crazy Russian wants to just grab the High Commissioner and Well, we'd be forced to intervene.
It's not gonna happen, all right? Our op, our rules.
When it comes down to it, Zarkova, you're kind of expendable.
Thank you for reminding me, Sergeant.
- Hey, hey! - Nicely handled.
Zarkova's moving in, we're following.

You're the one who killed the British soldier.
Who are you here with? Well, unfortunately, I am alone.
[SIGHS.]
Because you took out my team, as well.
[SPEAKING RUSSIAN.]
[GRUNTS.]
[SPEAKS RUSSIAN.]
She just gave us a sit-rep.
Third floor, six Tangos.
And she's with Davis' killer.
Well, that's not our op.
We stay on mission.
[GRUNTS.]
[SPEAKING FOREIGN LANGUAGE.]
Zero, we have Alpha target on the third floor.
I got a visual on multiple Tangos.
Permission to engage.
Thanks to Bravo, Inspector Leong has got us permission to engage in exceptional circumstances, so extract and secure the target.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC.]
Sign.
You understand what happens if I give your vehicle diplomatic clearance and then my actions are discovered? A man in debt to the Shun-Ko cannot walk away.
You could hide your family, but we will find them.
Of this I am sure.
If I agree to sign? They will be safe.
You have my word.
No one can know about this.

Moving to extract Target Alpha now! Moving! I'll hold back till you're clear! Bravo's en route.
Rendezvous at the underground car park.
[TIRES SQUEALING.]
Keep left.
- Bravo, Tangos on their way.
- [PEOPLE SCREAMING.]
Stay sharp.
I'll make my own way.
Get the target to withdraw any diplomatic decrees that he's issued.
What did they want? The Shun-Ko, what did they want? Diplomatic clearance for a vehicle.
All right, we're gonna have to get you to cancel that, okay? - [MACHINE GUN FIRING.]

All right, we can't stop the diplomatic clearance but we track it, see if it's been used.
- Novin, sit-rep! - En route, mate.
Wait a minute.
Eyes on Laoshu.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC.]
Diplomatic pass was used on a road leading to the Serendah region outside the city.
It's a 20-minute drive from here.
- We can make it in ten.
- Go.
Novin! Novin! - Novin, sit-rep! - Go on without me.
You heard her.
Let's go.
- [ENGINE REVVING.]
- [TIRES SQUEALING.]
All right, it's just you and me on the line.
I want you to think about what you're doing.
Disobeying a direct order that's how a career ends.
She knew McKitterick was dirty.
She had nowhere to turn but me.
I let her down.
I've read Davis' file, saw what it did to her.
She had a family, a life, and to die like that in some filthy alleyway I'm not letting him walk away.
Laoshu is not the mission.
That's why it's on me.
Listen, I understand how you feel.
I know how losing someone stays with you.
Believe me, I know.
But this isn't the way.
She deserved better.
I'm sorry.
[DEVICE BEEPS.]
[SIGNAL BEEPING.]
It's the Hulu Langat Forest Reserve, and the nearest significant landmark is the disused Hutan Besar palm oil plantation built on land owned by the Wei-Fong family.

Copy that.
[MEN CHATTERING.]
Looks like Triad command and control.
[HELICOPTER WHIRRING.]
Transport helo is heading to a plantation landing site.
We need to get to that helo.
There's too many of them.
Can't go through there.
All right, me and Amy'll provide cover.
You and Zarkova flank left, make a direct line to the landing site.
"Direct line" meaning "run like hell and hope for the best"? You've got this.
You're one of the most capable soldiers I've ever worked with.
Holy shit, that does work.
All right, fuck it.
I was the one that wanted more action, right? Yeah.
Go over there.
With the racket from that helo, they won't hear a thing.

Means we fucked the mission up.
I know that, Sergeant.
Helo's gone, the warhead with it, and all this shit was for nothing.
[SIGHS.]
Well, maybe your new Russian friend knows where it is going.
What are you talking about? What are you talking about? Zarkova! Zarkova! Just had word from Novin.
[SOLEMN MUSIC.]
Your father.
I'm sorry.
He wasn't my father.
He was just a man who shouldn't have come back.
Was thinking about what you said earlier.
About having a life outside of all this.
[LAUGHS.]
We wouldn't work out.
Wow, uh I mean, do you want to think about it? That was pretty brutal.
Yeah.
I'll probably regret it later.
See you around, Sergeant.
See ya.
[SOFT DRAMATIC MUSIC.]
You fixed a tracker to the missile crate? [GUN COCKING.]
We were outnumbered.
Seemed the best tactic.
That's a ballsy move.
So? - Where's it heading? - And I would tell you because? Because you wouldn't have got anywhere near it if it wasn't for us.
[SIGHS.]
Have the Shun-Ko said who's paying them? According to local police, helicopter didn't belong to the Shun-Ko.
None of the Triads knew where it was headed.
And the only name they managed to recover was the same as the one from the Hanto Building: Kingfisher.
So I find this Kingfisher, this missile.
Otherwise, how can I go home? [LAUGHS.]
No team.
Disobeyed direct orders.
[SOFT LAUGH.]
Captain.
If you're willing to share your intelligence, I am willing to discuss some kind of a deal.
We have a word, "poputchik.
" "Strangers who form a bond over a long journey.

Signal's good.
Heading northwest over the water.
So how do we do this, sir? Straight-up dismissal? Court martial? Well, normally I like to start with a conversation.
You know I screwed up.
Left you in the dark, disregarded orders.
Unless those orders were to track down and eliminate whoever killed Lance Corporal Davis.

She didn't deserve it.
[RISING DRAMATIC MUSIC.]
[GUNFIRE ECHOES.]
Well, that's a very interesting read.
You seem like a decent soldier.
Military Intelligence, Spetsnaz field training, seconded to Alpha Group.
Going to give me a medal, Colonel? I'm gonna ask you why you're still here, why you've ignored direct orders from your CO to return home.
My mission is not complete.
You've been recalled, op shut down.
Colonel Beshnov is only worried about his reputation.
I'm not surprised.
An illegal Russian op going loud and public is the kind of thing that fuels sanctions down the line.
Frankly, you're something of an embarrassment.
We were set up.
[SIGHS.]
Triads don't want this missile for themselves.
It is this Kingfisher.
And have you any idea who or what that might be? But if they can pay to steal a missile, maybe they can pay someone off in Moscow, find out my team's safe house location.
Colonel, we we are both looking for the same thing here.
Maybe we could be of some use to each other.
And why on earth would we want to work with you? 'Cause you are at a dead end and I have the way out.
Directorate A files on the missile theft.
You're offering to share classified Russian intelligence.
Isn't that technically treason? Only if I come home empty-handed.
I will need to contact my handler, Lieutenant Pavel Kuragin, Alpha Group support.
[KEYS TAPPING.]
"Kuragin.
" There we go.
Former FSB counterterrorism.
Basically a go-between for Alpha field agents and their CO.
So he's their computer guy.
That's a little reductive.
Let's see, he trained with the Foundation for Advanced Military Research, specialized in telecommunications, information infrastructure, network operating system, variants of SQL, Python, and, uh, yeah.
He's a computer guy.
If you do go to see your handler, you wouldn't be going alone.
This is on our terms.
Part of me thinks she's legit.
I mean, we all saw what happened to her team.
But part of me also thinks this ends with us putting a bullet in her, or her putting one in us.
Oh, you're a little beaming ray of Aussie sunshine today, aren't you? Now, before anyone puts a bullet in anyone, why don't you two go and have a word with this computer guy? [DISTANT SIRENS WAILING.]

I was asking her what she is doing with you.
Let's call it a cross-cultural exchange.
[SPEAKING RUSSIAN.]
Hey, if you're gonna whisper, you do it in English.
Our terms, remember? Did you tell the Colonel? I told him I couldn't contact you, which was pretty much the truth.
Katrina, think about what you are doing.
Someone doesn't want us to find this missile.
You saw the others killed in front of you.
Maybe it's affecting your judgment.
I'm sorry, I No, I can't let you take that.
[TSKING.]
[TENSE MUSIC.]
You promised you would help.
Pavel, for what it's worth, you know, - we all want the same thing.
- Really? Because I would like you not to be here stealing information that does not belong to you.
They will think we are defectors.
What do I tell the Colonel? Just tell him you are still looking for me, Pavel.
Okay? I will be in touch.
[OVERLAPPING CHATTER.]
- You okay? - Fuck you.
Got anything? Yeah, a bad feeling.
We report to Coltrane.
Coltrane reports to High Commissioner McKitterick.
And right now, McKitterick is looking pretty damn cozy with the Triads.
[SIGHS.]
Son of a bitch.
That's why Davis kept McKitterick in the dark.
She knew he was dirty.
You're accusing the British High Commissioner of colluding with the Triads, passing on intel.
Well, they knew we were coming to that warehouse.
Someone tipped them off.
I agree, but this is circumstantial.
So because he's a High Commissioner, we just sit on our hands and say "fuck it"? No, we find corroborating evidence, like his financial records.
I don't think that's gonna be easy, sir.
No, it's not.
Unless, of course, you were concerned about how Davis didn't trust him, so you requested access to his system, ostensibly to review her field reports but, in reality, to install proprietary software to brute-force access to his private accounts.
[LAUGHING.]
- Oh, I like you.
- Thank you.
Looks like McKitterick has six-figure gambling debts to various bookmakers and casinos, and I would take an educated guess that these are all run by the Shun-Ko.
And if I was trying to smuggle a nuke out of the country, a diplomatic pass would be a big help.
Brings you right through those borders and checkpoints.
McKitterick has the power to shut us down.
We're going to need backing from local authorities.
McAllister, see if you can't convince Inspector Leong to give us her support.
Uh, that might be a bit tricky.
She's not exactly my biggest fan at the minute.
Well, then lie to her.
Tell her what she needs to hear.
You've got this.
You're one of the most capable soldiers I've ever worked with.
Thanks.
See? It's easy.
The rest of you, on me.
I need to hear what our High Commissioner has to say for himself.

I meet a lot of people.

- Comes with the job.
- This isn't "people.

Alexander, you've already ruined your career once.
Are you sure you want to double down on that? I wish I could help.
You know, there was a time I might have broken your bloody arm for lying to me.
Thankfully I have calmed down.
Do you know, I think I know what this is all about.
- James - This is Afghanistan If they want something from you This is the Arbakai, this is IEDs on the road.
This is you trying to make amends for what you did.
I am trying to fucking help you! [SIGHS.]
Please.
We have a limited window in which to track this missile down.
The Triads will need your help to get it out of the city.
Let's say they did want something from me.
And I refused.
Who do you think they'd target? [CHILDREN LAUGHING.]
We could protect them.
There's, what, four of you? Once you've gone, I mean we already live behind walls and gates, and it's not enough.

I mean, there's dedication, then there's personal.
Laoshu is my father.
My mother thought he was an insurance salesman.
She had no idea about his real life, until the day a rival Triad gang tried to take him out.
They missed him.
Didn't miss her.
How old were you? I was only four.
But I was lucky.
Brought up by a lovely couple who didn't even mind when their daughter announced she wanted to be a cop.
Day of graduation from the Academy, he's outside, waiting for me.
Must have been an interesting conversation.
He said he was sorry, said he'd do anything to make amends.
So I asked him to leave, for good.
And now he's back.
If my team was reactivated, we could take him down.
[LAUGHS.]
If you're going to try emotional manipulation, at least make it subtle.
Look.
That that wasn't meant like that.
Come on, you don't really give a shit about me.
I'm just another obstacle for you to overcome.
Look, this was a courtesy call.
A nuke like that in the wild is a six-figure death toll on a good day.
You're exactly what I expected.
Whoa, what you don't know anything about me.
- How can you say that? - Really? What have you got outside all this? Friends? Family? A real life? Uh, you've got criminal profiles on your fridge and you want to give me a lecture? You're very perceptive, Sergeant McAllister.
What are you gonna do? Arrest me? Again, very perceptive.
