1
00:00:01,000 --> 00:00:02,558
- Stay where you are!
- Get down!
2
00:00:05,280 --> 00:00:07,077
A specialist escort agency
for the very rich.
3
00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:08,792
Alex didn't use escorts.
4
00:00:08,920 --> 00:00:11,309
I have to buy a battery for my laptop.
5
00:00:12,600 --> 00:00:14,591
I stole something from the attic.
6
00:00:14,720 --> 00:00:16,597
It's a locked cylinder.
7
00:00:16,720 --> 00:00:19,359
- It needs a code.
- Which you don't know.
8
00:00:19,480 --> 00:00:20,833
No.
9
00:00:20,960 --> 00:00:23,758
I've gone over
every conversation, every word.
10
00:00:23,880 --> 00:00:27,429
You've got to figure it out.
You're the only one who can.
11
00:00:28,840 --> 00:00:31,195
Did you know
that I suffer from depression?
12
00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:33,910
Did you know
that in the past I drank?
13
00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:35,951
I didn't know Alex well personally.
14
00:00:36,080 --> 00:00:39,038
There aren't many students
who start their degree at 15.
15
00:00:39,160 --> 00:00:40,718
He was murdered.
16
00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:44,395
So, I take it you want to speak
to his professor.
17
00:00:45,160 --> 00:00:46,195
Marcus Shaw.
18
00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:48,197
Why did they murder him?
19
00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:49,955
I don't know.
20
00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:52,913
Whatever Alex discovered,
whatever it was, whatever it is,
21
00:00:53,040 --> 00:00:55,474
no one wants in the open.
22
00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:57,955
We're not up against
one intelligence agency.
23
00:00:58,080 --> 00:00:59,638
We're up against them all.
24
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:02,956
I need information.
25
00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:06,072
What does it mean?
It means we are quite alone.
26
00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:07,997
Get in the car.
27
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:10,599
It's for you.
28
00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:13,715
Not here!
29
00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:30,229
You're looking for answers.
30
00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:34,798
But are you ready for them?
31
00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:39,238
Get in the hotel.
32
00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:45,077
Room 116.
33
00:01:54,000 --> 00:02:00,000
Ripped By mstoll
34
00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:12,238
The bathroom.
35
00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:23,837
Get in.
36
00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:25,598
Clothes on.
37
00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:47,871
Now, you're clean,
we can talk a little freer.
38
00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:51,799
Get changed.
39
00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:02,268
Outside.
40
00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:06,992
Where are we going?
41
00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:10,679
Do you want to know
who Alex was or not?
42
00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:21,432
The doors are locked, Danny.
No way out.
43
00:03:22,920 --> 00:03:24,478
No way back.
44
00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:36,399
I want to take you on a journey
into Alex's past.
45
00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:45,716
Remember this place?
46
00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:54,997
Are you sure you know
what really happened in there?
47
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:02,038
Walk.
48
00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:19,079
A reservation for two.
49
00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:12,394
Here I am.
50
00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:17,391
Alex's past.
51
00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:14,315
Well... this is weird.
52
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:29,429
Never done anything like this before.
53
00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:30,788
Like this?
54
00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:34,388
What is this?
55
00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:41,111
Being paid to tell someone how I...
56
00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:45,193
their boyfriend.
57
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:51,996
They said you wouldn't believe me.
58
00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:56,232
- Who are they?
- Who are they?
59
00:06:58,840 --> 00:07:00,990
They are the people pulling my strings.
60
00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:04,835
I have no control
over what I'm about to do.
61
00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:08,595
Like this.
62
00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:29,518
No control.
63
00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:37,634
Alex ate breakfast here...
almost every morning.
64
00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:40,194
You can even tell me
what he liked to order.
65
00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:42,880
What? Oh, to be convincing, you mean.
66
00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:45,869
- You watched him?
- Serving.
67
00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:49,035
- The waiter?
- Me? No.
68
00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:51,833
Please. I was pretending.
69
00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:08,632
The service... it's very expensive
because the people we...
70
00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:13,595
don't know that we are escorts.
71
00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:17,998
How is that possible?
72
00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:23,039
We pretend. We pretend
to meet them by chance.
73
00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:26,712
We pretend to be won over
by their charms.
74
00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:29,353
We pretend to...
75
00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:33,478
for pleasure, which takes
some serious pretending.
76
00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:34,953
Who pays you?
77
00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:37,674
Our clients aren't the people we...
78
00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:41,551
We report back.
79
00:08:41,680 --> 00:08:47,471
"So-and-so... likes it like this."
80
00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:51,593
"So-and-so likes a little of this."
81
00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:00,271
Blackmail?
82
00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:03,756
- But that's not my business.
- You just do the fucking.
83
00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:06,913
I just do the fucking.
84
00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:22,675
They told me to meet him
in the way you met him.
85
00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:23,869
I'm sorry.
86
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:25,194
An accident.
87
00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:30,590
They told me to be like you.
88
00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:34,754
They told me to act like you.
89
00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:40,553
In the end, Alex wasn't so tricky.
90
00:09:40,680 --> 00:09:42,591
He just needed to believe...
91
00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:45,312
he was being good.
92
00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:48,794
All the way up until he was being...
93
00:09:49,560 --> 00:09:51,391
a little bit bad.
94
00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:56,111
How do you seduce a good man?
95
00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:58,231
My approach was simple.
96
00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:00,555
I told him a sad story.
97
00:10:00,680 --> 00:10:01,954
I tell him
98
00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:05,197
it's the will and last testament
of my mother,
99
00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:08,392
and my mother,
she never loved me. Bitch.
100
00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:11,956
In her will, the bitch leaves
just three things to me.
101
00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:14,878
Just three paintings, that's all.
102
00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:18,276
And Alex, listening like a puppy dog,
103
00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:21,517
and I tell him, heartbroken,
104
00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:25,315
"They are the three paintings
I painted for her."
105
00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:27,431
"I'm an artist," I say.
106
00:10:27,560 --> 00:10:31,439
"No, not yet an artist. Aspiring to be."
107
00:10:31,560 --> 00:10:33,437
Pretending to be.
108
00:10:33,560 --> 00:10:36,358
That's a true story.
109
00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:39,677
I am an artist. What?
110
00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:44,432
What do you think?
I grew up wanting to be an escort?
111
00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:47,309
Enough, Danny.
112
00:10:48,560 --> 00:10:50,630
Enough with not believing.
113
00:10:51,560 --> 00:10:55,235
What do you need?
I'll give it to you. Hmm?
114
00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:57,430
You need those little details?
115
00:10:57,560 --> 00:11:00,199
A birthmark on the inside of his thigh?
116
00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:04,477
Something whispered, something moaned?
117
00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:09,193
He had a thirst, I can tell you that.
118
00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:12,394
Like a man crawling out of the desert.
119
00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:14,639
Yeah?
120
00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:17,354
Throat dry, lips dry.
121
00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:21,080
Gulping up all those missed years.
122
00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:27,199
Where?
123
00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:28,992
My place.
124
00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:32,919
- Your place?
- My fake place.
125
00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:34,393
Why'd he come around?
126
00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:38,195
To see my paintings, of course.
127
00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:45,199
What did you do?
128
00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:49,955
You hate yourself for asking,
but you had to know.
129
00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:51,957
I'll be right back, OK?
Give me a second.
130
00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:55,311
You had to ask, "What did we do?"
131
00:11:57,200 --> 00:11:58,997
We played a game.
132
00:11:59,840 --> 00:12:02,400
How long can we talk
without mentioning
133
00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:05,193
the only thing we were
both thinking about?
134
00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:10,398
The first game lasted an hour.
135
00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:13,558
The second game...
136
00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:16,999
... lasted a little longer.
137
00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:32,316
I rang him afterwards,
138
00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:35,351
but he didn't answer.
139
00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:40,838
The client wanted more,
but Alex wasn't interested.
140
00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:43,474
Why won't you tell me
that he kept coming back?
141
00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:46,910
Because I can see
you are good at sniffing a lie.
142
00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:49,235
So, I told you the truth.
143
00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:51,430
Why'd they hire you?
144
00:12:51,560 --> 00:12:55,394
I don't know. I don't care.
It's just a job.
145
00:12:56,840 --> 00:12:58,751
He's dead.
146
00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:01,993
Your job... he was murdered.
147
00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:06,994
You think you're not involved?
Because you seem like a loose end to me.
148
00:13:11,560 --> 00:13:13,676
I was told to pay for our dinner.
149
00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:17,109
Hey!
150
00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:21,872
How else are you going to let them know
what a great job you did?
151
00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:24,790
I can see strings on you, too.
152
00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:45,799
What are you thinking?
153
00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:54,999
Say it again.
154
00:13:57,600 --> 00:13:59,079
What are you thinking?
155
00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:18,713
Nothing.
156
00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:25,960
You were Alex's
first experience of love.
157
00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:29,197
If he enjoyed a second,
would you seem less important?
158
00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:35,711
Could the thrill of the new
replace the comfort of the old?
159
00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:41,392
Watergate wasn't just
about bugging the opposition.
160
00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:44,796
They used prostitutes to collect
information on rival candidates
161
00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:48,959
to shame them, manipulate them,
destroy them.
162
00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:51,878
Sex has always been
a means of control.
163
00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:59,194
In the end, your relationship became
a threat to their relationship with him.
164
00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:04,314
He changed you. You changed him.
Priorities altered. Loyalties altered.
165
00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:07,193
I noticed it in our friendship.
166
00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:11,190
The two of you were besotted.
167
00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:13,992
The rest of the world ceased to exist,
168
00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:18,272
but Alex was one
of their most important minds.
169
00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:21,790
Did you imagine
they'd just allow him to drift away?
170
00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:24,597
I didn't think about it.
171
00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:26,915
It's all they would have thought about.
172
00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:30,191
"What binds
this brilliant young man to us?"
173
00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:33,198
"The Queen, our history, his parents?"
174
00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:42,195
I accept that I didn't know
anything about his work, his job.
175
00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:46,990
The truth is, I didn't really know him
as a person either.
176
00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:51,312
I didn't know him.
177
00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:57,515
Of all the attacks they've used,
including your health,
178
00:15:57,640 --> 00:16:00,632
the one that has proved
most effective is smut.
179
00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:02,998
For you, of all people.
180
00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:06,990
He made a mistake. That's not it.
181
00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:09,998
Why didn't he tell me?
182
00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:13,398
Some of it. Any of it.
183
00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:18,793
Because you wanted him to be perfect.
He saw that more clearly than you.
184
00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:23,795
It was his funeral last week.
185
00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:27,271
Do you know how I found out?
186
00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:28,992
I heard about it on the news.
187
00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:35,715
He was buried at a private ceremony
for close friends and family.
188
00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:38,835
I can't count
how many men I've comforted
189
00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:41,315
when their partners were dying
190
00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:44,477
and the family wouldn't allow them
into the hospital...
191
00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:47,834
or the church where they're buried.
192
00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:50,428
I'm tired of it.
193
00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:53,313
I'm tired of hearing about it.
194
00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:55,874
He wasn't close to his parents.
He was close to you.
195
00:16:56,560 --> 00:16:59,233
Hold your own funeral.
Say your own goodbye.
196
00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:04,474
That's what I should be doing.
197
00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:05,999
Saying goodbye.
198
00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:18,029
What am I doing
all this other stuff for?
199
00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:21,197
Because Alex discovered
some government secret? So what?
200
00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:25,950
Because they lied about a war?
201
00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:29,038
They spy on us?
What's it got to do with me?
202
00:17:39,120 --> 00:17:40,917
And, you know,
I don't know any code.
203
00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:42,837
I don't.
204
00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:50,589
So, I don't know.
205
00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:56,118
Maybe whatever those secrets are,
maybe they weren't meant for me.
206
00:17:59,000 --> 00:17:59,989
Then that's that.
207
00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:06,352
Do you believe in soul mates?
208
00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:11,595
No.
209
00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:18,716
Not only do I not believe in them,
210
00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:20,478
it's not even a nice idea.
211
00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:23,518
Not a nice idea?
212
00:19:24,120 --> 00:19:27,874
That there's only just one
other person out there for you.
213
00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:31,194
What are the odds this person
would be in the same country?
214
00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:34,278
Or the same city?
That their paths would even cross?
215
00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:37,597
It would mean almost everyone
in the world is with the wrong person.
216
00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:41,511
If it's a way of saying
we're good together,
217
00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:44,996
why not just say,
"We're good together"?
218
00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:47,633
But if you mean it literally...
219
00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:49,751
You think there are better people
out there for you?
220
00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:51,199
There might be.
221
00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:54,193
For both of us.
222
00:19:57,320 --> 00:20:00,073
But since we don't know them,
it's just a theoretical.
223
00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:05,230
Yes, it's... a sentimental idea.
224
00:20:08,320 --> 00:20:10,675
The maths doesn't add up.
225
00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:11,994
But...
226
00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:16,197
We're by the fire,
we're under a night sky.
227
00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:18,792
Couldn't you just have said "yes"?
228
00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:21,990
Is that what your soul mate
would have done?
229
00:22:49,800 --> 00:22:51,358
Can it be opened?
230
00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:53,471
If you know the code.
231
00:23:10,360 --> 00:23:11,918
This is us.
232
00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:06,476
I've done a lot of things
with a lot of different people, and...
233
00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:11,391
that's part of the reason I'm sure
that we're something special.
234
00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:15,199
But, for you, it...
235
00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:22,472
I don't want you to stay with me
just because I'm the first.
236
00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:26,879
So, you should see other people.
You should.
237
00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:30,592
I don't want to.
238
00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:33,632
- I only meant...
- I don't need to.
239
00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:44,998
That there's only just one
other person out there for you.
240
00:26:36,360 --> 00:26:37,634
Scottie?
241
00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:43,999
Scottie!
242
00:26:47,880 --> 00:26:48,995
Scottie?
243
00:26:55,880 --> 00:26:57,393
Scottie!
244
00:26:58,040 --> 00:26:59,029
Scottie.
245
00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:07,750
I was just remembering...
246
00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:09,313
Huh?
247
00:27:12,360 --> 00:27:14,078
A place...
248
00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:25,190
I was remembering a place...
249
00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:29,313
We need to get you to the hospital.
250
00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:33,194
Will you just listen to me
for once, Danny?
251
00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:42,196
You were remembering a place.
252
00:27:57,960 --> 00:28:00,599
A place where no one cares.
253
00:28:19,200 --> 00:28:20,633
Pathetic.
254
00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:23,589
Pathetic.
255
00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:26,393
Thank you.
256
00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:38,189
My parents used to chide me.
"You were such a happy child."
257
00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:41,999
How long?
258
00:28:43,360 --> 00:28:44,759
Like this?
259
00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:48,472
Three weeks.
260
00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:53,589
Worse and worse each day.
261
00:28:55,760 --> 00:28:57,591
Now, as bad as it's ever been.
262
00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:04,075
It can't be coincidence, can it?
263
00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:07,795
Thirty years I've been OK,
and now, like this.
264
00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:14,674
Why might someone who has
managed depression for 30 years,
265
00:29:14,800 --> 00:29:19,191
suddenly suffer a relapse
for no reason?
266
00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:24,391
This is what we're going to do.
267
00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:25,873
We'll get new pills,
268
00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:29,879
real pills from a different doctor.
269
00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:32,195
You can keep them on you at all...
270
00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:35,594
Unless they switch them
before they give them to you.
271
00:29:37,280 --> 00:29:39,714
I'll get them illegally.
272
00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:42,991
I know someone.
He can get anything.
273
00:29:49,320 --> 00:29:51,311
On your shell...
274
00:29:53,280 --> 00:29:55,794
until they find a crack.
275
00:29:57,160 --> 00:29:58,991
A frailty.
276
00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:02,590
A vulnerability.
277
00:30:03,880 --> 00:30:06,235
No matter how small.
278
00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:10,711
And then they pick away.
279
00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:21,030
How do you kill an alcoholic?
280
00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:22,912
With alcohol.
281
00:30:23,040 --> 00:30:27,716
How do you kill a drug addict?
With drugs.
282
00:30:27,840 --> 00:30:29,796
How do you kill a depressive?
283
00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:34,034
Where did you get them?
284
00:30:34,160 --> 00:30:39,792
People tell the doctor whatever story,
collect a prescription, sell it to me.
285
00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:44,072
They're good. It's all good.
Always good for me.
286
00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:48,990
- Do you want something else?
- No, nothing else.
287
00:30:58,800 --> 00:30:59,994
Thank you.
288
00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:41,712
Have you examined the
contents?
289
00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:43,990
We're going to need help.
290
00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:47,992
With help comes risk.
291
00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:51,556
The more people you involve...
292
00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:54,717
Look what they've done to us.
293
00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:57,798
That was before they knew we had this.
294
00:32:02,480 --> 00:32:03,754
I can do this alone.
295
00:32:11,920 --> 00:32:13,592
There are rumors...
296
00:32:14,640 --> 00:32:18,155
about how the Kremlin guarantees
297
00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:21,590
the loyalty of its most
important citizens.
298
00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:27,231
Under the pretext of celebrating
an election to the State Duma,
299
00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:31,990
the individual is treated
to the finest meal Moscow has to offer.
300
00:32:33,200 --> 00:32:37,113
At some point during that night,
301
00:32:37,240 --> 00:32:40,710
this prized individual blacks out,
302
00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:47,075
waking in a hotel suite, on a bed,
beside a terrified naked child.
303
00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:51,714
Before he can say anything,
the FSB storm the room, arrest him,
304
00:32:51,840 --> 00:32:56,630
and take him to an interrogation cell
in Moscow's Butyrka prison,
305
00:32:56,760 --> 00:32:59,433
where the individual swears
he is not a pedophile.
306
00:32:59,560 --> 00:33:04,680
"My drink must have been spiked!
I've been framed by my enemies!"
307
00:33:04,800 --> 00:33:08,918
He doesn't know. He can't explain.
"But it is a mistake!"
308
00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:14,034
And, to his surprise, the FSB officer
agrees that it is a mistake,
309
00:33:14,160 --> 00:33:18,233
but it is a mistake
they will hold on record forever,
310
00:33:18,360 --> 00:33:19,679
a mistake no one will ever see,
311
00:33:19,800 --> 00:33:25,511
unless the individual
makes a mistake of a political kind.
312
00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:29,758
With that, the man's choice is clear:
Privilege or disgrace.
313
00:33:30,520 --> 00:33:32,431
Destruction or survival.
314
00:33:32,560 --> 00:33:35,074
The FSB officer believes he's won.
315
00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:37,475
The individual believes he's lost.
316
00:33:37,600 --> 00:33:41,309
But those systems of oppression,
317
00:33:41,440 --> 00:33:45,672
as ruthless as they appear,
as unbeatable as they seem,
318
00:33:45,800 --> 00:33:49,076
never hold, never last, never survive,
319
00:33:49,200 --> 00:33:52,510
for we will not live in fear!
320
00:33:55,440 --> 00:34:00,673
I would like to finish this particular
adventure with you, Daniel Edward Holt,
321
00:34:00,800 --> 00:34:02,279
if you'll have me.
322
00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:10,428
We're being watched.
323
00:34:10,560 --> 00:34:13,313
We will be followed.
324
00:34:13,440 --> 00:34:17,558
So, we separate, shake them off,
325
00:34:17,680 --> 00:34:24,233
and meet up at a place where no one can
follow us without revealing themselves.
326
00:34:57,280 --> 00:34:58,759
The place where no one cares?
327
00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:05,512
I've always taken comfort
from the idea that people don't care,
328
00:35:05,640 --> 00:35:07,596
that they have better things
to think about,
329
00:35:07,720 --> 00:35:11,076
that there are more important
matters to worry about.
330
00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:14,317
I like it when people walk past me
and couldn't care less what I'm wearing
331
00:35:14,440 --> 00:35:17,273
or whose hand I'm holding.
332
00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:19,914
The place where no one cares.
333
00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:23,476
When I was young,
I spent a lot of time searching for it,
334
00:35:23,600 --> 00:35:28,071
and I promised myself,
if I ever found it, if it ever existed,
335
00:35:28,200 --> 00:35:30,589
that's where I'd make my home.
336
00:36:04,280 --> 00:36:05,793
What do you think?
337
00:36:08,200 --> 00:36:11,556
Ambition. No conviction.
338
00:36:13,360 --> 00:36:17,148
You skip from short stories to lyrics,
339
00:36:17,280 --> 00:36:19,669
from poems to sketches,
340
00:36:19,800 --> 00:36:21,711
hoping the world will tell you
who you are.
341
00:36:21,840 --> 00:36:24,752
You must tell the world.
342
00:36:37,680 --> 00:36:40,752
- Ah.
- There you are.
343
00:36:40,880 --> 00:36:45,237
- Well done. You weren't followed?
- I hope not.
344
00:36:45,960 --> 00:36:51,478
- So, will Marcus help us?
- He didn't say.
345
00:36:55,520 --> 00:37:01,629
"Kickback", and then that gives you
your "B" for "baritone".
346
00:37:01,760 --> 00:37:04,593
- Oh, I see. Four, of course.
- Yes.
347
00:37:05,440 --> 00:37:07,670
- And that's got...
- Where did you two meet?
348
00:37:07,800 --> 00:37:08,789
Cambridge.
349
00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:12,196
We shared a flat.
350
00:37:14,920 --> 00:37:18,799
I was the first person he shared
the secret of his sexuality with.
351
00:37:18,920 --> 00:37:21,559
At that time, it was illegal.
352
00:37:21,680 --> 00:37:23,591
And there were rumors.
353
00:37:23,720 --> 00:37:28,669
So, then I agreed to play
the part of his lover.
354
00:37:28,800 --> 00:37:31,155
And we walked around arm in arm,
355
00:37:31,280 --> 00:37:34,989
and we had picnics
in the Scholars' Garden, and...
356
00:37:37,560 --> 00:37:40,199
It was supposed to last
about two months or so.
357
00:37:40,320 --> 00:37:42,788
It lasted two years.
358
00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:45,228
Are you gay?
359
00:37:46,480 --> 00:37:48,072
No.
360
00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:51,956
Did you see other people?
361
00:37:52,080 --> 00:37:53,832
No.
362
00:37:53,960 --> 00:37:57,316
I tried to become the man
I was pretending to be.
363
00:38:01,400 --> 00:38:04,198
You know, I prayed
for the right kind of desire?
364
00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:09,437
A sham romance, you might say.
365
00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:11,198
No!
366
00:38:12,360 --> 00:38:14,191
No, no.
367
00:38:16,280 --> 00:38:18,999
We're friends.
We have been ever since.
368
00:38:19,880 --> 00:38:22,792
We can't be sad about that.
I refuse to be sad about that.
369
00:38:22,920 --> 00:38:25,070
It's all very touching.
370
00:38:27,840 --> 00:38:32,630
Marcus, this is Danny,
Alex's partner, and Scottie.
371
00:38:32,760 --> 00:38:34,557
Where is it?
372
00:39:49,880 --> 00:39:50,869
Cheers.
373
00:40:06,560 --> 00:40:10,997
You didn't know, did you?
How smart he was.
374
00:40:11,120 --> 00:40:14,192
- I knew.
- But not really.
375
00:40:17,320 --> 00:40:19,038
Not in the way you did, no.
376
00:40:22,160 --> 00:40:23,991
His partner...
377
00:40:24,680 --> 00:40:27,478
without any appreciation
of his intellect,
378
00:40:27,600 --> 00:40:31,957
beyond some generalized idea
that he was good with numbers.
379
00:40:32,760 --> 00:40:34,637
Love without knowledge.
380
00:40:35,560 --> 00:40:39,473
Popular culture might depict that
as a romantic notion, I suppose.
381
00:40:41,240 --> 00:40:43,834
He never spoke about his work.
382
00:40:43,960 --> 00:40:46,758
- What did you talk about?
- Everything else.
383
00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:49,194
I see.
384
00:40:50,040 --> 00:40:53,635
No, I don't. I don't see at all.
385
00:40:57,320 --> 00:41:00,835
Well, what did you two talk about,
outside of work?
386
00:41:00,960 --> 00:41:03,428
We didn't.
387
00:41:03,560 --> 00:41:05,949
Look, try to understand.
388
00:41:06,080 --> 00:41:09,550
I was sure, absolutely certain,
389
00:41:09,680 --> 00:41:15,391
that he was going to change the world
in some way. Not my world, the world.
390
00:41:16,240 --> 00:41:18,834
Can you imagine
the enormity of that feeling?
391
00:41:18,960 --> 00:41:22,748
Being in the company
of someone like that?
392
00:41:28,040 --> 00:41:31,828
- We knew different people.
- Hmm.
393
00:41:31,960 --> 00:41:34,918
The man I knew was exceptional.
394
00:41:35,040 --> 00:41:36,314
The man you knew was not.
395
00:41:36,440 --> 00:41:39,113
Unless you're going to tell me
how many sugars he took in his tea
396
00:41:39,240 --> 00:41:41,310
or how he liked to be fucked.
397
00:41:43,960 --> 00:41:46,554
Are these the details that define us?
398
00:41:46,680 --> 00:41:51,549
I think that... being admired is lonely.
399
00:41:51,680 --> 00:41:55,958
You're right, I'm sure,
but that was the price he had to pay.
400
00:41:56,080 --> 00:41:58,799
The ordinary world wasn't for him,
401
00:41:58,920 --> 00:42:03,994
and his flirtation with it...
was always going to end badly.
402
00:42:09,160 --> 00:42:10,593
Professor.
403
00:42:12,920 --> 00:42:14,797
I miss him, too.
404
00:42:48,720 --> 00:42:49,994
He did it.
405
00:42:50,760 --> 00:42:55,959
The 9/11 attackers sent emails
using pre-arranged code words.
406
00:42:56,080 --> 00:42:59,152
The Faculty of Urban Planning
was the World Trade Center.
407
00:42:59,280 --> 00:43:02,078
The Pentagon was
the Faculty of Fine Arts.
408
00:43:02,680 --> 00:43:06,434
Mohammed Atta's final message
to the other terrorists
409
00:43:06,560 --> 00:43:09,757
referred to their semesters
beginning in three weeks
410
00:43:09,880 --> 00:43:13,589
at the faculties of urban planning
and fine arts.
411
00:43:23,880 --> 00:43:25,871
Two emails.
412
00:43:29,040 --> 00:43:32,316
In this one, "zoo" means zoo.
413
00:43:32,440 --> 00:43:34,829
In this one, it means airport.
414
00:43:34,960 --> 00:43:37,190
How do you tell them apart?
415
00:43:38,720 --> 00:43:43,510
When... people who go to the zoo...
416
00:43:44,440 --> 00:43:48,228
also visit museums.
417
00:43:49,840 --> 00:43:52,752
They watch animated movies,
418
00:43:52,880 --> 00:43:59,069
buy children's clothes,
uh, and donate to animal charities.
419
00:43:59,200 --> 00:44:04,320
Convert our entire online history
into numbers,
420
00:44:04,440 --> 00:44:10,595
and a visit to the zoo looks like this.
421
00:44:12,760 --> 00:44:15,115
A coded message looks...
422
00:44:18,960 --> 00:44:20,393
like this.
423
00:44:25,040 --> 00:44:28,476
The 9/11 terrorists used innocent words,
424
00:44:28,600 --> 00:44:31,319
but they didn't use them
like the rest of us.
425
00:44:31,440 --> 00:44:35,149
We like to think of ourselves
as individuals.
426
00:44:37,160 --> 00:44:38,275
But we're not.
427
00:44:38,880 --> 00:44:40,359
We're a pattern.
428
00:44:40,480 --> 00:44:45,998
We are... married, gay, straight,
429
00:44:46,120 --> 00:44:49,795
professional, rich, poor.
430
00:44:52,360 --> 00:44:58,276
Our online DNA revealing
our true nature,
431
00:44:58,400 --> 00:45:01,676
even when we lie.
432
00:45:04,600 --> 00:45:06,989
I told him he would change the world.
433
00:45:08,800 --> 00:45:11,598
I just didn't tell him
how dangerous it would be.
434
00:45:15,960 --> 00:45:20,715
Alex decided to apply
his concept to speech.
435
00:45:20,840 --> 00:45:25,436
Words don't occur in isolation.
They're part of a series of actions.
436
00:45:25,560 --> 00:45:29,075
Your intake of breath, facial gestures,
437
00:45:29,200 --> 00:45:30,997
pupil dilation, hand movements.
438
00:45:31,920 --> 00:45:34,673
Alex theorized they formed patterns,
439
00:45:34,800 --> 00:45:37,872
and these patterns would be different
if we were telling the truth
440
00:45:38,000 --> 00:45:39,115
or telling a lie.
441
00:45:39,640 --> 00:45:40,629
A lie detector?
442
00:45:41,560 --> 00:45:43,596
Important lies are told
by important people.
443
00:45:43,720 --> 00:45:45,995
They'd never consent
to a test of any kind.
444
00:45:46,120 --> 00:45:48,076
Alex didn't need their consent.
445
00:45:48,200 --> 00:45:50,395
They've already provided
all of the information.
446
00:45:50,520 --> 00:45:54,229
The most important people in the world
are also the most documented.
447
00:45:54,360 --> 00:46:01,072
Study every word they've ever spoken...
mundane, profound, it doesn't matter,
448
00:46:01,200 --> 00:46:03,270
analyze every variable possible,
449
00:46:03,400 --> 00:46:07,916
translate that information into numbers,
and identify the patterns.
450
00:46:08,040 --> 00:46:12,272
A fingerprint...
for our truths and our lies.
451
00:46:12,400 --> 00:46:14,960
You'd be able to analyze
every statement.
452
00:46:15,080 --> 00:46:16,513
Every political claim,
453
00:46:16,640 --> 00:46:20,519
uh, every case for war,
every court case verdict.
454
00:46:21,280 --> 00:46:23,350
The end of lies.
455
00:46:32,480 --> 00:46:36,837
If the four of us survive a week,
I'd be very surprised.
456
00:46:52,520 --> 00:46:55,193
You're a thoroughly nice guy,
aren't you, Danny?
457
00:46:57,160 --> 00:46:59,071
So was Alex.
458
00:46:59,200 --> 00:47:02,590
For all of his intellect,
an innocent, really.
459
00:47:04,640 --> 00:47:07,791
When he told me he was going to work
for GCHQ, I knew it was a mistake.
460
00:47:07,920 --> 00:47:10,309
He didn't belong in that world,
461
00:47:10,440 --> 00:47:13,193
and I could feel him
wanting me to tell him so.
462
00:47:16,080 --> 00:47:18,036
Why didn't you say something?
463
00:47:18,840 --> 00:47:21,229
We didn't have
that kind of a relationship.
464
00:47:22,240 --> 00:47:25,391
I take it you have some kind of plan?
465
00:47:25,520 --> 00:47:26,953
We must prove it works.
466
00:47:37,240 --> 00:47:40,232
- You don't have a plan, do you?
- No.
467
00:47:40,360 --> 00:47:44,069
He needed to believe I did
and we need him.
468
00:47:44,200 --> 00:47:46,668
You see? Proof.
469
00:47:46,800 --> 00:47:50,713
The orderly functioning of society
depends on our ability to lie.
470
00:47:50,840 --> 00:47:52,876
Given the choice of no lies or lies,
471
00:47:53,000 --> 00:47:57,198
every organization, every person
of power, without exception,
472
00:47:57,320 --> 00:47:59,117
will choose lies.
473
00:47:59,240 --> 00:48:01,515
Maybe Alex imagined
a better way of doing things.
474
00:48:04,600 --> 00:48:07,194
I wonder when he began work
on this project.
475
00:48:08,680 --> 00:48:10,238
Why does that matter?
476
00:48:10,360 --> 00:48:13,636
Maybe he was ashamed
of the lies he'd told you,
477
00:48:13,760 --> 00:48:17,435
ashamed that your relationship
was built on lies.
478
00:48:17,560 --> 00:48:21,519
Maybe, on some level,
he thought he was making amends.
479
00:48:21,640 --> 00:48:23,710
- To who?
- To you.
480
00:48:31,640 --> 00:48:33,392
Danny...
481
00:48:44,720 --> 00:48:46,995
- I'm to blame?
- I'm sorry.
482
00:48:49,080 --> 00:48:51,992
- I'm to blame?
- I never said to blame.
483
00:48:54,160 --> 00:48:55,718
He did it for me?
484
00:48:56,800 --> 00:48:58,472
It's possible.
485
00:49:00,240 --> 00:49:01,514
I never asked for it.
486
00:49:01,640 --> 00:49:06,350
He knew you'd find out
that he'd lied about much of his life.
487
00:49:06,480 --> 00:49:08,675
He must have worried
that you'd end up hating him.
488
00:49:08,800 --> 00:49:11,633
He must have worried
about that moment every day.
489
00:49:11,760 --> 00:49:16,470
Would you still love him if you knew?
Could you still love him if you knew?
490
00:49:16,600 --> 00:49:22,311
Would you re-examine your love story,
Alex's only love story,
491
00:49:22,440 --> 00:49:25,193
and decide, in the end,
it was nothing but a lie?
492
00:49:26,880 --> 00:49:29,440
He was never sure?
493
00:49:29,560 --> 00:49:31,312
How could he be?
494
00:49:35,440 --> 00:49:37,192
I wish I could have told him...
495
00:49:38,040 --> 00:49:40,235
that none of it mattered.
496
00:49:40,360 --> 00:49:42,715
The lies, the mistakes...
497
00:49:44,200 --> 00:49:47,829
That I loved him, just the same.
498
00:49:47,960 --> 00:49:52,192
That I... I love him still, now,
knowing it all.
499
00:49:54,440 --> 00:49:57,273
I wish he could have heard me say it.
500
00:49:57,400 --> 00:49:58,992
Yes.
501
00:50:02,920 --> 00:50:05,150
He'll never know.
502
00:50:05,280 --> 00:50:06,633
No.
503
00:50:54,480 --> 00:50:56,789
This is going to sound a bit...
504
00:50:58,360 --> 00:51:01,989
But it occurred to me
I'd never said it out loud before.
505
00:51:04,480 --> 00:51:05,913
I love you...
506
00:51:07,400 --> 00:51:08,992
very much.
507
00:51:53,480 --> 00:51:55,710
You're not going to be charged.
508
00:52:03,040 --> 00:52:04,393
Is that it?
509
00:52:06,440 --> 00:52:07,793
You're free to go.
510
00:52:11,000 --> 00:52:13,389
You brought me here like this
to tell me that?
511
00:52:18,400 --> 00:52:20,311
Will anyone be charged?
512
00:52:25,600 --> 00:52:26,999
Danny...
513
00:52:28,480 --> 00:52:30,072
For you...
514
00:52:31,560 --> 00:52:33,596
this is over.
515
00:52:33,720 --> 00:52:36,439
This isn't over.
516
00:52:46,800 --> 00:52:48,597
This isn't over.
517
00:54:26,720 --> 00:54:28,551
- Scottie?
- Danny...
518
00:54:37,440 --> 00:54:39,351
- Danny...
- Scottie?
519
00:54:39,480 --> 00:54:41,994
There will be a note.
520
00:55:38,500 --> 00:55:46,500
