[OVERLAPPING VOICES BREAKING UP]
- [MAN 1] Dalton... - [WOMAN 1] Dalton...
[MAN 2] Public protests against Abigail Dalton have intensified
as backlash surrounding the NHS drugs crisis
enters its third week.
Critics argue Dalton has been distracted
by the abduction of her husband,
delaying government action.
Opposition leaders are demanding urgent intervention
as tensions escalate.
A vigil in Leeds turned violent with multiple arrests
and similar disturbances spreading nationwide.
Police are reporting a surge in public disorder,
but Downing Street has yet to announce new measures
as pressure mounts for immediate action.
[WOMAN 2] Oliver Bahrami is pulling no punches
as he seems to be holding Dalton personally responsible
for the growing crisis.
Now he's calling for drastic action,
warning that this crisis is worsening by the day.
[CROWD YELLING AND JEERING]
[THUMP]
Robin, what the bloody hell...
- [DRIVER] Some sort of protest, sir. - [BANGING]
- Back it up. - I can't, sir.
Just back it up!
- There he is! He's one of them. - [CLAMORING]
Dalton out! Dalton out!
It's Robin with the home secretary. We need assistance immediately.
Get him out! Drag him out!
[PROTESTOR 2] Grab him.
- [PROTESTOR 3] Out! Out you go! - [HOME SECRETARY YELPS] No!
[CLAMORING]
Dalton out! Dalton out!
[CROWD] Dalton out! Dalton out!
[ABIGAIL SIGHS]
[SIGHS]
[UNDER BREATH] Dad.
[GASPS]
[SIGHS] Oh, Dad.
[SOLEMN MUSIC PLAYING]
[SOBS] I'm so sorry.
[SNIFFLES]
I think I need some air.
Well, uh, take someone with you.
- [SYLVIE] I wanna be alone for a while. - Sylvie, I mean it.
"We're not done playing yet." That's...
That's what he said on the phone.
I'd like to stay here a little longer. [SIGHS]
Ma'am, the
home secretary's been attacked.
[OGILVY] Michael was dragged from his car.
They sprayed "Dalton out" on the windscreen.
Then they beat him in the street, fractured his skull.
[WOMAN] His wife called me earlier. Terrible state.
He's got a bleed on the brain. They're running more tests.
Uh, it... it's horrific.
Have there been any arrests?
Neither he nor his driver are in a fit state to identify anyone, so...
Order is falling apart, Prime Minister.
The majority of people renounce this kind of violence.
But even they think you've put them at risk by not resigning.
Dan's right.
Ever since the threat level was raised,
you've got armed police with assault rifles right outside your door.
We don't.
And I for one am not willing to be beaten half to death in the street.
Look, I understand that you're scared,
for your... yourselves and for your families,
but I'm doing everything I can.
- I'm so close to a deal with the French. - [SCOFFS]
You've been trying to recover your husband.
And... and the cost has been to the rest of the country.
That is bullshit, and you know it.
Were you or were you not prepared to offer Toussaint concessions
on the UK's border security to get her to bring Alex home?
We had a private conversation, leader to leader,
so any speculation on...
You've put your family before your responsibilities.
I put my husband in danger by not resigning.
I... I did the right thing for my country and for our democracy.
This Cabinet is unanimously of the opinion that you should step down.
[FOREBODING MUSIC PLAYING]
You know, you have no idea what you're dealing with.
We still haven't traced the men
who posed as police at Attaf Diwala's vigil.
What if Michael's attack was staged in exactly the same way?
Someone is orchestrating this to force me out.
Taking Alex hostage,
um... blackmailing Toussaint, and...
I think they murdered my father.
Uh, if that is really the goal, then how would murdering Max...
To hurt me. Look, this is...
this is personal.
These people are terrorists. We can't let them win.
I won't go. [SIGHS]
[WOMAN] Abigail, please.
Somebody needs to get a grip on the problem.
You mean him.
Dan has our support as interim prime minister
until a full leadership election is run.
[SIGHS]
If you want me gone, you are gonna have to drag me out of here.
[MAN] ... from Downing Street
- that the home secretary, Michael Hall... - Thank you.
... was admitted to hospital
after being dragged from his vehicle and attacked...
I'm so sorry about your father, Prime Minister.
Would you like me to draft a statement?
... physical assault on...
No, I... [SIGHS]
I wouldn't know what to say.
[AYESHA] Prime Minister, you need to see this.
[WOMAN] Speculation has been rife...
[AYESHA] This is what they had on her. It's everywhere.
- President Vivienne Toussaint... - Oh shit.
[AYESHA] We're trying to find the source.
- ... 28-year-old... - Has Pelletier given us anything?
She's being questioned at the embassy.
French soil. We can't get anyone in there yet.
... and you can see here...
- I need the car, right away. - ... the video appears to...
Alex'll be arriving at RAF Northolt soon.
- You'll be able to see him in the hour. - And I'll be there.
For God's sake, Ayesha, just do as I ask.
... whether it happened during Toussaint's presidency,
but it leaves many unanswered questions.
[INTERCOM BUZZES]
[SNIFFS]
[SIGHS]
[INTERCOM BUZZES]
[MAN 1] Yeah, see you.
[SHOUTING]
[MAN 2] Hey! Matheo, come down!
[INTERCOM BUZZES]
[MAN 2] Come on, come down and answer some questions!

[MUSIC FADES]
[MAN] You know, there's... It's not possible...
[TOUSSAINT'S HUSBAND] There you are.
The lady of the moment.
[IN FRENCH] What is all this?
[IN ENGLISH] April is my VP of Media in London.
Oliver heads up Legal.
I thought it would be helpful to have their input on the flight back.
- No luggage? - I'm not coming back yet.
I need answers from Pelletier first.
[SIGHS] What are you talking about? We have a campaign to save.
We can't limit the damage unless we answer these questions.
April, please, go on.
Madame President, did your stepson receive any gifts from you,
paid for by your office?
Of course not. What is this?
Is there any way you could be pregnant with his child?
[IN FRENCH] You piece of shit.
[IN ENGLISH] Play these games all you like.
The real story here is a plot
to destroy me and the British prime minister,
involving my own chief of staff, for God's sake.
They only released the tape because I helped Dalton.
We need to find the people responsible.
Well, that's all well and good,
but the only problem is that you fucked your stepson,
and that's all anyone is going to care about, my darling.
[IN FRENCH] Don't you dare talk to me like that.
[IN ENGLISH] Give us a moment, please.
[IN FRENCH] Good. All right, look.
If we generate some fresh ideas, we can head this off.
Discuss a formal coalition with Desmaris
in the national interest.
Is that what you want?
It's over, Elias, you and me.
I came to tell you that to your face.
You know I'm standing by our arrangement.
I'm not.
I want a divorce.
[SCOFFS]
And throw everything away over Matheo?
He's not worth it.
[SIGHS] This isn't about Matheo.
This is about us.
We don't see things the same way.
We never have.
We shouldn't have got married.
You wouldn't be President if we hadn't.
I made you.
No, I made myself.
I don't need your advice. Just the truth, and I'm going to get it.
[TENSE MUSIC PLAYING]
Without my news network to protect you, you'll be eaten alive!
[WOMAN, IN ENGLISH] French President Vivienne Toussaint
is under intense scrutiny
as leaked footage shows evidence of an alleged affair
with her 28-year-old stepson Matheo Lewis,
throwing her reelection campaign into chaos.
The footage puts pressure on an already intense international summit,
as Abigail Dalton battles her own domestic crises.
Rumors are circulating of turmoil in her Cabinet
in response to Dalton's handling of the hostage s...
I always thought gardening leave was a euphemism.
[SIGHS]
My wife loved it out here. I never really saw the attraction before.
Is your husband home yet?
Any time now.
Then what are you doing here?
MI5 finished their interim report on you.
Through your contacts at the Treasury,
you received a three-days advance warning of a tax loophole
that was about to vanish before the Budget was presented to the House,
and you made £72,000.
What did you spend it on?
[SIGHS]
Respite care during Titi's illness.
It was illegal, unethical, the worst decision of my life,
and I'd do it all again.
I need your help.
Dan Ogilvy is trying to replace me.
He has the entire Cabinet behind him. I got an ultimatum this morning.
Either I go quietly, or he gathers the signatures to drag me out.
- Ogilvy? - [SIGHS]
[ABIGAIL] This is exactly what the kidnappers wanted.
Maybe it's linked.
The men who took Alex and the other doctors were British.
They were disciplined, well-equipped, which could suggest ex-military?
It could.
Dan Ogilvy is secretary of defence.
I need to know if he's had a hand in this.
I need you to look into him for me.
You're asking me to spy on a member of your own Cabinet?
If he is involved in this and he succeeds me,
then the next prime minister of this country
will have caused the death of innocent civilians to win power.
[SIGHS]
Okay.
I'll help you.
Thank you.
And I'm sorry about your father.
[POIGNANT MUSIC PLAYING]
[PHONE BUZZES]
Yes.
Alex's plane just landed.
[BREATHING ECHOING]
[WOMAN, MUFFLED] Follow the light, please.
Good.
[POIGNANT MUSIC CONTINUES]
- [NURSE] And breathe in. - [SLOW HEARTBEAT]
[NURSE] Out.
Breathe in.
Dad!
[SOBBING]
What's happened?
Granddad.
He... he died.
- What? - It was last night.
- [SYLVIE SOBS] - Abi, I'm here.
[WHISPERS] It's okay.
- We're going home. - Yeah.
I just need a second with Mum, okay?
Okay.
[ABIGAIL SIGHS]
[SIGHS SHAKILY]
Tell me.
Uh, the doctor, uh... said that he died of complications,
and there'll be an autopsy, but...
I think the people that took you killed him.
- You have to rest. I'm so sorry. - It's okay. It's all right.
But I need you to talk to our intelligence team.
Someone called me last night.
A man.
He knew that you'd been rescued.
And then he said
now the country had to burn.
[TENSE MUSIC PLAYING]
What man?
[MUSIC INTENSIFIES]
[GASPS]
[BREATHING SHAKILY]
[GASPS]
[SIREN BLARING IN DISTANCE]
[RADIO] There's someone there with Toussaint now...
[MUSIC QUIETENS]
Toussaint just arrived at the embassy.
She's come to question Pelletier.
- She won't talk. - She could give them our names.
We can't take the risk. You know what to do.
She's one of us.
I gave you an order, Corporal.
[MUSIC INTENSIFIES]
[MUSIC FADES]
[WOMAN, IN FRENCH] Who are you working for?
[SIGHS] Whatever you know,
you need to tell us before you run out of options.
Or, if you'd rather, we've got you on conspiracy,
blackmail, corruption.
That's a life sentence.
[DOOR OPENS]
[DOOR CLOSES]
[BLEEP]
- Is she talking? - [WOMAN] No, Madam President.
She asked for a coffee 43 minutes ago.
That's all she's said since we brought her in.
Well, then we'd better get her one, don't you think?
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYING]
[DOOR CLOSES]
Adrienne, I need a name.
[ADRIENNE SIGHS]
- [IN ENGLISH] Welcome home, Dr. Anderson. - Thank you.
General Livingston, chief of the defence staff.
He'll be asking you some questions.
If I could give you more time, I would,
but we need to find the men who took you.
Fine.
Then let's get it over and done with.
We're going to play you something
to see if you recognize the voice.
Prime Minister, with your permission?
Have a seat.
[VIVIENNE, IN FRENCH] Let's start with how long?
I think I deserve to know when you chose to betray your country.
I love France. You're the one betraying your country.
You used to stand for something.
I believed in you.
At least your opponents are honest about who they are.
You're a fraud.
[LEADER, IN ENGLISH] I admired your honesty on the news, Abigail.
It's a breath of fresh air in a politician, I must say.
[ABIGAIL] We're onto you.
[LEADER] I doubt that.
[ABIGAIL] We know about Pelletier.
[LEADER LAUGHS]
She's one of many.
Loyal, dedicated.
- [IN FRENCH] You sold your country out. - I didn't have a choice.
I won't have my kids grow up in this rotten society
surrounded by corrupt politicians like you.
Because the people you're working for now are better?
[GASPS]
[ABIGAIL, IN ENGLISH] This is over. You've lost.
[LEADER] We're not done playing yet.
[CALL ENDS]
Do you recognize him?
Could you give us a minute?
[VIVIENNE, IN FRENCH] Give me a name. I can't help you otherwise.
You won't be able to raise your kids.
And when you do see them, they'll be visiting you in prison.
[SIGHS]
[IN ENGLISH] What can you tell me about that voice on the recording?
[SIGHS] He, um...
he executed Jacobs.
I was, um...
[WHISPERS] Like, I was...
[GASPS] I was... I was begging him to stop.
To let us go. [SIGHS]
I told him that we all had families.
[SIGHS] I told him I had a daughter.
He... he said,
"So did I."
[SNIFFLES]
[IN FRENCH] Give me a name.
Not until I see my family.

[TIRES SCREECH]
[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING]
[IN FRENCH] Who are these people? Give me a name.
Give me a fucking name!
[GASPING]
[SIRENS APPROACHING]
[IN ENGLISH] No, I don't care how many
letters of no confidence you've got.
- You have to give me more time. - Uh...
There are reports that shots were fired outside the French embassy.
- Where's Toussaint? - She's on her way.
Dominic, I have to go.
[REPORTERS CLAMORING]
[MAN 1] Why has the French embassy been locked down?
- Ma'am, tell us... - About the shooter, who...
... in love with your stepson?
[MUSIC QUIETENS]
- They tried to kill Pelletier. - Jesus. Wh... where is she?
[SIGHS] On a plane back to Paris. She gave me a name.
Shagan. She only met him once.
- Did she say who he was working for? - [TOUSSAINT] She didn't know.
But whoever it is doesn't want us working together.
I'll give you the drugs you need, but we need to do the deal now.
There's a confidence vote happening. I'm... I'm hemorrhaging support.
We can't lose control of this. If we stand still, we're dead.
We need to keep moving.
[INHALES] I'll pull the negotiating team back in.
- [PHONE BUZZING] - [SIGHS]
[SIGHS] Matheo?
Are you okay? Where are you?
I found something.
A... laptop. It was Saskia's.
There were surveillance photos of me from before we met.
You were right about her.
I'm sorry. [SIGHS]
There's more. Um...
I have to show you. This can't wait.
I'm at Downing Street.
[MATHEO] Okay. I'm coming to you.
Get that out straight away.

[MUSIC FADES]
- Prime Minister! - Prime Minister!
A few moments ago, inside Downing Street,
President Toussaint and I signed an emergency NHS drug agreement.
This will guarantee a swift and stable supply
of critical cancer drugs into pharmacies and hospitals
within the next 24 hours.
[ALL SHOUTING]
Prime Minister, what did you give the French in return?
Nothing.
[REPORTER] Madam President,
you're on record as coming here seeking changes to UK border controls.
You're right. The only reason I agreed to this summit
was to exact a high price for helping the United Kingdom.
I was led to believe that's what it would take to win.
[STIRRING MUSIC PLAYING]
For too long, I've listened to the wrong voices.
I've allowed myself to be led into making the wrong decisions
in an attempt to maintain my position.
And I've forgotten the candidate I was when my people first elected me.
I won't make that mistake again.
People want the truth from their politicians.
It's the least you deserve.
[REPORTERS CLAMORING]
- So here is the truth. - [CLAMOR DIES DOWN]
If this prime minister is removed from office,
these people will have won.
They'll have used blackmail and murder
to bring mayhem to the streets of this country.
But my faith in Abigail Dalton's leadership is absolute.
So we stand here today united
in defiance of the tactics used to intimidate us.
I would like to ask everybody involved in the violence
that we've seen across the UK in the last 48 hours
to please think about your communities,
think about your loved ones,
and to stop.
[REPORTERS SHOUTING]
I'm now... I'm now going back into Downing Street
to oversee the distribution of vital medication to those who need it.
That's my job, to protect the people of this country.
And I would ask my colleagues
to let me finish what I was elected to do.
[ALL CLAMORING]
It feels good. [SIGHS]
[AYESHA] Prime Minister.
You must be Matheo. Abigail Dalton. It's good to meet you.
- Likewise. - Ma'am, um, Kofi's on the phone for you.
- I need to get that. - [VIVIENNE] Yeah.
I'm divorcing your father.
I don't want him or his people influencing me anymore.
I need to listen to myself.
Gets my vote.
- What is this? - Uh, proof.
President Toussaint has suggested that the French will receive no...
... shock announcement, the prime minister stunned once again.
Kofi.
I've been through the MOD budgets
for Ogilvy's period as defence secretary.
He's been cutting spending, as you requested,
through gritted teeth, perhaps, but he's done what you asked
and maintained friendly relations with Livingston,
which is quite an achievement.
Everything else adds up. Not a penny out of place.
No miscellaneous accounts, slush funds, nothing?
He runs a tight department.
He's vain, ambitious, but that's hardly a secret.
Ogilvy may want your job, but there's no evidence he's behind this.
- [KNOCKING] - [DOOR OPENS]
They're announcing the no-confidence ballot.
- Did you call for Alex and Sylvie? - [AYESHA] They're on their way down.
Look, I've got a name for you.
Uh, or an alias, I don't know. Shagan.
Not much to go on, but he was Pelletier's contact.
Find out what you can for me?
I'm on it.
Good luck.
Thank you.
[BIG BEN CHIMING]
[SIGHS]
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYING]
[MAN] ... test is fair, if Abigail Dalton still...
... MPs must be...
[ABIGAIL SIGHS] Hey. They came back quicker than I expected.
[ALEX] Okay, all right. That's a good sign.
[SIGHS SHAKILY]
This is it.
Tris, what are they saying?
I lost the confidence motion by 22 votes.
How long do you have?
A few hours.
Abigail, I'm so sorry.
We're gonna get the medication that people need.
I'm proud of that.
Let's get these bastards.
What did you find?
I... I met a woman four months ago.
Last night, I got back to the flat,
and she packed everything in a hurry.
Only she left her laptop.
She stole the footage of us from Matheo's phone.
[MATHEO] She'd been tracking me for months before we first met.
What can you tell us about her?
Um... [SIGHS] She... Her name is Saskia Morgan.
She said that she worked in an art gallery.
She also told me that she wasn't on social media,
but today, my friend found a deleted Instagram profile
for a Corporal Saskia Morgan, 3rd Battalion of the Highland Guards.
- I'm on it. - Who was she messaging?
It's unclear. Their last communication was last night.
[MATHEO] "We lost P. You need to step up."
- [ABIGAIL] Pelletier? - Must be.
Um, and then, "Green Ward, room 19. Let me know when it's done."
My father's room.
- [GASPS] How the fuck did we miss this? - Ma'am, you should see this.
3rd Battalion of the Highland Guards was shut down
in the most recent MOD budget cuts.
Corporal Saskia Morgan was discharged along with the rest of her unit.
