0:00:06 > 0:00:10- NESSA STEIN:- 'Who do you trust?' - Samir Meshal. He's dead. Suicide.

0:00:10 > 0:00:10'How do you know?'

0:00:10 > 0:00:14The Israeli Government has, er, had no hand in this.

0:00:14 > 0:00:15Nessa Stein.

0:00:15 > 0:00:19Not quite the woman she appears to be.

0:00:19 > 0:00:20'By how they appear?'

0:00:20 > 0:00:22DOOR SLAMS

0:00:22 > 0:00:23Kasim!

0:00:23 > 0:00:25'What they do?'

0:00:25 > 0:00:29Seven years ago, The Stein Group launched its first phase

0:00:29 > 0:00:33of the telecommunications roll-out into the Palestinian territories.

0:00:33 > 0:00:37How come it was Ephra Stein that launched it and not his sister?

0:00:37 > 0:00:39Lay the cable. And when they're down,

0:00:39 > 0:00:42there's something else we want you to do.

0:00:42 > 0:00:45How come he was in the lead back then,

0:00:45 > 0:00:47but now their roles are reversed?

0:00:47 > 0:00:49If it gets your sister out,

0:00:49 > 0:00:52you'll have to step down as head of the company

0:00:52 > 0:00:53and then you have to put Nessa in your place.

0:00:53 > 0:00:55What does she want Nessa Stein to achieve?

0:00:55 > 0:00:58Equality of opportunity between Palestine and Israel.

0:00:58 > 0:01:01Jalal El-Amin. To what do I owe this honour?

0:01:01 > 0:01:05Your third-phase cabling contract into the West Bank.

0:01:05 > 0:01:09We're now in a position to bid for this.

0:01:09 > 0:01:11TRANSLATED FROM HEBREW:

0:01:24 > 0:01:28Your sister's kidnapping, the child's kidnapping, your academy -

0:01:28 > 0:01:29I think it's all connected.

0:01:29 > 0:01:32It's a wiretap, Mr Zahary.

0:01:32 > 0:01:33You asked me to trust you!

0:01:33 > 0:01:35And you should, you should!

0:01:35 > 0:01:37Not this time.

0:01:37 > 0:01:39For Christ's sake, Nessa.

0:01:39 > 0:01:43One thread to pull it all together. And all I have to do is find it.

0:01:43 > 0:01:45'So, when you think about it like that...'

0:01:45 > 0:01:47Nessa Stein's leaving her house.

0:01:48 > 0:01:49Alone.

0:01:50 > 0:01:52'..it's a wonder we trust anyone at all.'

0:01:52 > 0:02:01This programme contains strong language, scenes which some viewers may find disturbing

0:02:01 > 0:02:08and some scenes of a sexual nature from the start.

0:02:34 > 0:02:36SHE GROANS

0:02:39 > 0:02:41Do you have a bed at least?

0:02:41 > 0:02:42Not for you.

0:02:44 > 0:02:46OK, I'm used to a sofa.

0:02:48 > 0:02:50How about the floor?

0:02:52 > 0:02:55You might have to warm me up a bit first.

0:02:56 > 0:02:57Maybe I want you cold.

0:02:59 > 0:03:00Aah...

0:03:10 > 0:03:11NESSA MOANS

0:03:18 > 0:03:21Now I want you to try and get out.

0:03:34 > 0:03:36I don't know if I want to play this game.

0:03:36 > 0:03:37Who said it was a game?

0:03:47 > 0:03:49I know you.

0:03:49 > 0:03:52I knew you the minute I first saw you.

0:03:53 > 0:03:54OK.

0:03:56 > 0:03:59So how do you think you're going to look on TV

0:03:59 > 0:04:00after I've broken your nose?

0:04:00 > 0:04:02Don't break my nose.

0:04:03 > 0:04:05Not a good look for all those good deeds?

0:04:08 > 0:04:10I said the fucking floor.

0:04:18 > 0:04:22I bet you've been doing this for years, haven't you?

0:04:23 > 0:04:24SHE LAUGHS

0:04:25 > 0:04:27And you've always got away with it...

0:04:29 > 0:04:31..because people didn't know who you were.

0:04:36 > 0:04:38But now they do...

0:04:40 > 0:04:44SHE GASPS ..and you didn't think about that, did you?

0:04:44 > 0:04:46SHE MOANS

0:04:46 > 0:04:48Big, clever girl.

0:04:49 > 0:04:53Still, I bet it won't happen again, will it?

0:04:54 > 0:04:56So I'd better make the most of it.

0:04:56 > 0:04:58Let me go.

0:05:00 > 0:05:02Baroness Stein...

0:05:02 > 0:05:03Let me go.

0:05:05 > 0:05:06No!

0:05:32 > 0:05:34Modeh ani l'faneykha.

0:05:47 > 0:05:48ATIKA: Don't be afraid.

0:05:51 > 0:05:54KASIM: I'm safe.

0:05:54 > 0:05:56- NESSA, TEARFULLY:- I can't do this.

0:06:03 > 0:06:06ATIKA: If it's the price... for a nation.

0:06:10 > 0:06:14RADIO COMMUNICATION IN ARABIC

0:06:51 > 0:06:53PHONE RINGS

0:06:57 > 0:06:59Hello?

0:07:12 > 0:07:13Nessa Stein?

0:07:13 > 0:07:15SHE LAUGHS

0:07:18 > 0:07:23Er, my, my name's Max Boorman, we need to get you to hospital.

0:07:23 > 0:07:24Go away.

0:07:24 > 0:07:25You need help.

0:07:25 > 0:07:27I know who you work for. Go away.

0:07:27 > 0:07:30- You need help.- You think(?)

0:07:32 > 0:07:34We need to get you to a hospital.

0:07:37 > 0:07:40- SHE LAUGHS - No hospitals.

0:07:40 > 0:07:43No, no, no, no. Somewhere private. I can take you somewhere private.

0:07:43 > 0:07:49Ah, so what, they'll sell the story to The Telegraph instead of The Sun?

0:07:49 > 0:07:51No-one's selling any stories.

0:07:53 > 0:07:57Why? Are they bound by the Official Secrets Act?

0:07:57 > 0:07:59Er, something like that.

0:07:59 > 0:08:00It owns them.

0:08:03 > 0:08:05And not a damn thing they can do about it.

0:08:11 > 0:08:14DOOR OPENS

0:08:17 > 0:08:19DOOR CLOSES

0:08:37 > 0:08:38Baroness Stein.

0:08:38 > 0:08:41SHE LAUGHS

0:08:50 > 0:08:52(Fuck's sake.)

0:08:52 > 0:08:54His name's Tom Crace.

0:08:55 > 0:08:59He's an accountant with two HMRC investigations pending.

0:09:00 > 0:09:05Married 11 years, two children - youngest, two, a girl, Melanie.

0:09:07 > 0:09:10The flat he attacked you in belongs to his company.

0:09:10 > 0:09:13There's a culture of casual sex and blind eyes.

0:09:13 > 0:09:15But not for rape.

0:09:16 > 0:09:18That's off books -

0:09:18 > 0:09:20even for a bent accountant.

0:09:22 > 0:09:24He's tidying up now. A blood sample's been taken.

0:09:24 > 0:09:28He says he's not got HIV or Heps

0:09:28 > 0:09:30or anything.

0:09:31 > 0:09:32You arrested him?

0:09:32 > 0:09:35Do you want us to?

0:09:39 > 0:09:40No.

0:09:41 > 0:09:42Sure?

0:09:45 > 0:09:46Mm-hm.

0:09:47 > 0:09:50So, you'll be given a number to call in 48 hours

0:09:50 > 0:09:52for the full plethora of results.

0:09:52 > 0:09:55You need to give me a code word.

0:09:56 > 0:09:57Fucking idiot.

0:10:01 > 0:10:02Atika.

0:10:02 > 0:10:06A-T-I-K...

0:10:06 > 0:10:09Doesn't matter - you just have to say it when you phone.

0:10:09 > 0:10:14A-T-I-K-A.

0:10:19 > 0:10:20OK.

0:10:22 > 0:10:23Let's get you home.

0:10:33 > 0:10:34I know what happened...

0:10:35 > 0:10:37..in Gaza...

0:10:38 > 0:10:39..to you and Atika.

0:10:47 > 0:10:49Can I ask you a question?

0:10:50 > 0:10:53You're going to anyway, so just do it.

0:10:54 > 0:10:57What happened tonight, has it happened before?

0:10:59 > 0:11:01Did it happen then?

0:11:01 > 0:11:03What does it say in my file?

0:11:05 > 0:11:06It doesn't.

0:11:08 > 0:11:10Why do you need to know?

0:11:12 > 0:11:14I want to help.

0:11:15 > 0:11:17You want to help me or you?

0:11:21 > 0:11:22Both of us.

0:11:26 > 0:11:29All you spies need to co-ordinate better.

0:11:31 > 0:11:33Co-ordinate with who?

0:11:33 > 0:11:36With your colleague - Monica Chatwin.

0:11:39 > 0:11:41I wouldn't say she's a colleague.

0:11:42 > 0:11:44More a competitor.

0:11:44 > 0:11:46Ah.

0:11:46 > 0:11:47So she wants your job.

0:11:49 > 0:11:52Unless, maybe...

0:11:52 > 0:11:54you help me out a little.

0:11:55 > 0:11:57Why would I want to do that?

0:12:04 > 0:12:05Oh, my God!

0:12:07 > 0:12:09I was hit by a car.

0:12:12 > 0:12:14Deliberately?

0:12:15 > 0:12:16What?

0:12:17 > 0:12:19Who hit you?

0:12:21 > 0:12:24Frances, aren't you supposed to be in Tel Aviv?

0:12:27 > 0:12:30- (There's something you need to see.) - What?

0:12:31 > 0:12:33BROADCAST IN HEBREW:

0:12:39 > 0:12:40OK.

0:12:41 > 0:12:43Thank you.

0:12:47 > 0:12:48It's been claimed.

0:12:49 > 0:12:50Who by?

0:12:50 > 0:12:52Samarian Defence League.

0:12:56 > 0:12:58Yaniv Levi.

0:12:58 > 0:12:59You've heard of him?

0:13:02 > 0:13:03Horrible...

0:13:04 > 0:13:06..horrible Israeli terrorist.

0:13:07 > 0:13:09Mm, he's a very bad boy.

0:13:09 > 0:13:11Why did they kill him?

0:13:12 > 0:13:16Pro-Palestinian statements to the press

0:13:16 > 0:13:18intent on exposing Israeli corruption.

0:13:18 > 0:13:20Our institution's not corrupt.

0:13:23 > 0:13:25Except that's not what he found, is it?

0:13:27 > 0:13:28But it isn't.

0:13:28 > 0:13:30Who told you that?

0:13:30 > 0:13:31Your brother?

0:13:34 > 0:13:36Because he runs that side of things now, doesn't he?

0:13:36 > 0:13:40Has done for, what, seven years?

0:13:40 > 0:13:42And do you trust him?

0:13:42 > 0:13:43He's my brother.

0:13:43 > 0:13:45That's not what I asked.

0:13:46 > 0:13:48Yes, it is.

0:13:49 > 0:13:52So you think if he'd been targeted covertly by the Israeli military,

0:13:52 > 0:13:55he'd have had the strength to stand up to them?

0:13:56 > 0:13:57All on his own.

0:13:57 > 0:13:59He's not on his own.

0:14:01 > 0:14:03Mmm... He's got me.

0:14:03 > 0:14:05Couldn't that be the problem?

0:14:08 > 0:14:10What if he wishes he was?

0:14:11 > 0:14:14What if he wanted to feel he was in control of things again,

0:14:14 > 0:14:18like he used to be, before his little sister took his job?

0:14:18 > 0:14:19He didn't want it.

0:14:19 > 0:14:21And why was that?

0:14:22 > 0:14:24Are you trying to help?

0:14:24 > 0:14:26Oh, yeah, I really am.

0:14:28 > 0:14:29Doesn't feel like it.

0:14:31 > 0:14:34Feels like you're trying to put a split

0:14:34 > 0:14:36right in the heart of this business.

0:14:36 > 0:14:38Unless it's already there.

0:14:42 > 0:14:45- SHE SIGHS - Oh, I need to rest.

0:14:48 > 0:14:50What about the press?

0:14:53 > 0:14:55I'll do it.

0:14:55 > 0:14:57Looking like that?

0:15:00 > 0:15:02Give it to your brother.

0:15:02 > 0:15:03Although, be careful,

0:15:03 > 0:15:06that's a lot of pressure.

0:15:06 > 0:15:07Are you sure he can take it?

0:15:09 > 0:15:11- What are you trying to prove? - My point.

0:15:11 > 0:15:13But you don't have to answer.

0:15:14 > 0:15:17I'll just wait until I see who you decide to put in front of the camera.

0:15:26 > 0:15:29- Kasim's kidnappers...- What?

0:15:33 > 0:15:34You don't think this is connected?

0:15:34 > 0:15:36Do you?

0:15:36 > 0:15:39When it comes to Israel and Palestine...

0:15:39 > 0:15:41isn't everything?

0:15:46 > 0:15:49Thank you for taking me home.

0:15:55 > 0:15:56SHE WINCES

0:16:34 > 0:16:36LOCKS CLATTER

0:16:41 > 0:16:44Obviously, this tragic event is of huge concern

0:16:44 > 0:16:47to the Stein Foundation and to the Kidma Academy.

0:16:47 > 0:16:50But at this point, I am sure you'll understand,

0:16:50 > 0:16:52it is not appropriate for us to make any comment

0:16:52 > 0:16:57on anything until the facts of this situation are completely understood.

0:16:57 > 0:17:00Except, of course, for us to reiterate

0:17:00 > 0:17:03our heartfelt condolences to Shimon Ben-Reuven's family -

0:17:03 > 0:17:07the private expressions of which, I'm sure you will agree,

0:17:07 > 0:17:08should remain just that.

0:17:09 > 0:17:10- MAN:- Was he murdered?

0:17:10 > 0:17:13CAMERA SHUTTERS CLICK

0:17:17 > 0:17:20JALAL EL-AMIN: Your person is making a statement to the press?

0:17:20 > 0:17:22Yes.

0:17:22 > 0:17:24Denouncing these terrible things, I'm sure.

0:17:26 > 0:17:28What happened was undeniably a tragedy.

0:17:28 > 0:17:32We're not yet in a position to pinpoint exactly the cause.

0:17:34 > 0:17:36Your academy was in cahoots with the IDF.

0:17:37 > 0:17:39We can't say that for sure.

0:17:39 > 0:17:42I can reassure you, without a doubt,

0:17:42 > 0:17:45that if we discover anything to support that claim,

0:17:45 > 0:17:48I will condemn the academy without reservation.

0:17:49 > 0:17:54IF you discover? Isn't that exactly what this teacher's done?

0:17:54 > 0:17:55What else got him killed?

0:17:55 > 0:17:59It appears to be because of the comments that he made to the press.

0:17:59 > 0:18:02We don't know yet if what he said was true.

0:18:02 > 0:18:05Yaniv Levi is an Israeli attack dog...

0:18:05 > 0:18:07and they just let him off the leash.

0:18:08 > 0:18:11We don't know that. Not yet.

0:18:11 > 0:18:14- I- know it. Someone had to pay him.

0:18:14 > 0:18:16I'm not sure he's a gun for hire.

0:18:17 > 0:18:21He always has a price, of course he does. What Jew doesn't?

0:18:24 > 0:18:27- SHE SIGHS - The contract you're bidding for.

0:18:30 > 0:18:32For obvious reasons,

0:18:32 > 0:18:36the companies we work with need to be scrupulously neutral.

0:18:36 > 0:18:38HE SCOFFS

0:18:38 > 0:18:42A comment like the one you just made could devastate our activities.

0:18:42 > 0:18:46Which brings me to the background check

0:18:46 > 0:18:49I've had drawn up on your company.

0:18:50 > 0:18:53It doesn't exactly make for an even-handed read, does it?

0:18:57 > 0:18:58It doesn't matter.

0:18:59 > 0:19:01Well, it matters to me.

0:19:01 > 0:19:05It doesn't matter what I say or what you read there.

0:19:06 > 0:19:08You're going to give me the contract.

0:19:08 > 0:19:11No, Jalal El-Amin, I'm not.

0:19:12 > 0:19:13Yes, you are.

0:19:13 > 0:19:17Because then your secret will be safe.

0:19:21 > 0:19:23Mm...

0:19:25 > 0:19:27SHE SIGHS

0:19:32 > 0:19:34Why have you taken so long?

0:19:37 > 0:19:39We didn't expect to have to do this.

0:19:40 > 0:19:41(To take a child.)

0:19:42 > 0:19:46- Replace Samir Meshal. - And what is he supposed to do?

0:19:46 > 0:19:48We need a Palestinian standing by your side.

0:19:48 > 0:19:51- Looking over my shoulder.- Yes.

0:19:52 > 0:19:53Why?

0:19:53 > 0:19:55Because we have to be certain.

0:19:55 > 0:19:56Of what?

0:19:58 > 0:20:01That you are everything you say.

0:20:12 > 0:20:14TRANSLATED FROM HEBREW:

0:20:15 > 0:20:16Mr Zahary.

0:20:19 > 0:20:21Looks like we're flying out together.

0:20:25 > 0:20:27How did you find that out?

0:20:27 > 0:20:29Luck! Lady Luck!

0:20:29 > 0:20:32She's been chasing me all my life...

0:20:32 > 0:20:33brazen hussy!

0:20:33 > 0:20:35My daughter.

0:20:36 > 0:20:38Would you please be so kind as to offer me

0:20:38 > 0:20:40one of your pomegranate shakes?

0:20:40 > 0:20:42No ice, please, and a straw.

0:20:43 > 0:20:48It's good for the grey cells, pomegranate, stops you going gaga.

0:20:48 > 0:20:50We shouldn't be talking, Mr Zahary.

0:20:50 > 0:20:52Oh, the fuck?

0:20:52 > 0:20:55I once got caught in Sao Paulo in fog.

0:20:55 > 0:21:00For six whole hours, I did nothing but talk to Nazis.

0:21:01 > 0:21:02Thank you, darling.

0:21:07 > 0:21:11You see, people think I'm very stupid...

0:21:11 > 0:21:12I'm sure they don't.

0:21:12 > 0:21:16Oh, no, no, they do, they do - on the technical side of things,

0:21:16 > 0:21:19they think I don't know my Tier IIIs from my PSTNs

0:21:19 > 0:21:25to my PABXs...and, let's face it, it is fucking boring.

0:21:25 > 0:21:28But I'm going to let you in on a secret now.

0:21:31 > 0:21:32I do know.

0:21:34 > 0:21:35Everything.

0:21:35 > 0:21:39But I don't allow them to know that I know

0:21:39 > 0:21:41because then I can look at them

0:21:41 > 0:21:45without THEM knowing that I really do.

0:21:45 > 0:21:48- You follow me?- I think so.

0:21:48 > 0:21:51OK, so let me say this in plain English,

0:21:51 > 0:21:53so we don't have to speak in capital letters,

0:21:53 > 0:21:57even though now you know that I can.

0:21:57 > 0:22:00That sniffer you've found - is it still up and running?

0:22:00 > 0:22:01Yes.

0:22:01 > 0:22:06So whoever's listening doesn't know that you've found it.

0:22:06 > 0:22:07Correct.

0:22:07 > 0:22:09Good.

0:22:09 > 0:22:13So what that device does is it duplicates all the information

0:22:13 > 0:22:15that goes along the mother line

0:22:15 > 0:22:18and then this material is re-routed back into the system

0:22:18 > 0:22:23until, eventually, it reaches the decoders of whoever's listening.

0:22:23 > 0:22:25Am I right?

0:22:26 > 0:22:27You're right.

0:22:30 > 0:22:31See?

0:22:34 > 0:22:38So, do you know why I'm a billionaire?

0:22:39 > 0:22:44Cos everything, every single thing on a telecommunications network,

0:22:44 > 0:22:46is monetarised.

0:22:46 > 0:22:48Every little bit of traffic that uses a line

0:22:48 > 0:22:51is paid for by someone, somewhere.

0:22:51 > 0:22:54And in order for that to be done,

0:22:54 > 0:22:59every single one of those lines has to have a number.

0:23:00 > 0:23:03Now, do you know who does the itemised billing

0:23:03 > 0:23:05for all those millions of numbers?

0:23:07 > 0:23:09My company.

0:23:09 > 0:23:13So if you look into that sniffer,

0:23:13 > 0:23:16you'll find the lines and the numbers that it uses

0:23:16 > 0:23:20and then, if you give those numbers to me...

0:23:21 > 0:23:24..I can find out who is paying the bill.

0:23:26 > 0:23:28Does that make sense to you?

0:23:34 > 0:23:37Ugh, truly, that is disgusting!

0:25:06 > 0:25:09I am engineer, I understand there are risks,

0:25:09 > 0:25:12particularly working where I do. But this...

0:25:15 > 0:25:17Am I safe, Baroness Stein?

0:25:17 > 0:25:19From whom?

0:25:24 > 0:25:25From you.

0:26:12 > 0:26:16Daddy used to play on this as a boy, so be very careful...

0:26:17 > 0:26:21..and, er, you know, watch where you're putting your feet.

0:26:24 > 0:26:27Nessa! The woman in black! Are you all right?

0:26:27 > 0:26:29Oh, Ephra...

0:26:29 > 0:26:31What?

0:26:32 > 0:26:34You've ruined us!

0:26:35 > 0:26:37Go inside, girls.

0:26:38 > 0:26:42Did you let them put that listening thing on our lines?

0:26:44 > 0:26:47Let them set up a secret department

0:26:47 > 0:26:51to decode in our university?!

0:26:51 > 0:26:53I had no choice!

0:26:53 > 0:26:56Oh, no, because this secret owns YOU, does it?!

0:26:56 > 0:27:00- That's what it cost to get you out! I got you out!- You're blaming me?

0:27:00 > 0:27:02- No, you're the one who went to Gaza. - I went to Gaza

0:27:02 > 0:27:04because other people were sending money there first.

0:27:04 > 0:27:06Yeah, and I got him out, too.

0:27:06 > 0:27:08Who?

0:27:12 > 0:27:13The soldier.

0:27:27 > 0:27:30No-one was going to help him, Nessa, no-one.

0:27:30 > 0:27:33And no-one was going to help you either.

0:27:33 > 0:27:36That makes you the big man, does it(?)

0:27:36 > 0:27:38You wouldn't be here if it wasn't for me.

0:27:40 > 0:27:43With what, Ephra, with what?

0:27:46 > 0:27:47You turned me into a puppet...

0:27:47 > 0:27:51- and you never said a word.- You've got secrets of your own, Nessa,

0:27:51 > 0:27:55- nothing to do with me.- I wouldn't have been there if not for you.

0:27:57 > 0:27:59Want to know why they've taken the boy?

0:28:01 > 0:28:03Because the Palestinians were suspicious

0:28:03 > 0:28:06that this is what you and the Israelis were up to all along.

0:28:06 > 0:28:09Oh, my God! It's true.

0:28:09 > 0:28:12- You're blaming me for Kasim's kidnap? - No!

0:28:12 > 0:28:18They wanted Samir Meshal close enough to watch over us.

0:28:18 > 0:28:21And so now they've got someone else.

0:28:21 > 0:28:22Who?

0:28:26 > 0:28:27Who do you think?

0:28:27 > 0:28:30Oh, El-Amin...

0:28:30 > 0:28:32And you want to know what my choice is?

0:28:34 > 0:28:35I haven't got one.

0:28:37 > 0:28:40Cos every fucking road on this leads back to you!

0:28:42 > 0:28:45And I'm sorry. But I just wanted...

0:28:45 > 0:28:46- What?- Help...help...help...

0:28:46 > 0:28:48What did you want? You wanted to be Papa?

0:28:48 > 0:28:51- No!- The great Eli Stein?

0:28:51 > 0:28:56- Please...- Look at you. You couldn't even be my brother.

0:29:00 > 0:29:01You know what I think?

0:29:01 > 0:29:04All this big "World Stage Reconciliation" stuff - why don't you

0:29:04 > 0:29:05take a good, hard look at yourself first?

0:29:05 > 0:29:08- Get that from your therapist? - Well, tell me it isn't true.

0:29:08 > 0:29:11What would you do if you met the man who ordered Papa's death?

0:29:11 > 0:29:13Would you just give him a big hug, Nessa?

0:29:13 > 0:29:15I certainly wouldn't stick a knife in his neck.

0:29:15 > 0:29:17- Wouldn't you?- Would YOU?

0:29:17 > 0:29:18Yes, I would!

0:29:26 > 0:29:29Well, then, whatever happens from now on,

0:29:29 > 0:29:31you're no longer a part of it.

0:29:34 > 0:29:35Nessa...

0:29:36 > 0:29:40Fine, fine, get rid of me, then. Get rid of everyone.

0:29:40 > 0:29:44But when you're standing there all on your own, ask yourself this -

0:29:44 > 0:29:45was it them, or is it me?

0:30:17 > 0:30:20We have absolutely no knowledge

0:30:20 > 0:30:23of the group operating within your university.

0:30:23 > 0:30:25None.

0:30:27 > 0:30:29Do you know, there are moments in a diplomat's career, Daniel,

0:30:29 > 0:30:32when the only thing to do is just to tell it straight.

0:30:32 > 0:30:35We have absolutely no knowledge of the group...

0:30:35 > 0:30:39Is it also your policy to allow military veterans into universities

0:30:39 > 0:30:41at the expense of Israeli Arabs?

0:30:41 > 0:30:44- We have absolutely no... - Could you fucking shut up?

0:30:47 > 0:30:49Is that how it is, to tell it straight?

0:30:49 > 0:30:52SHE SIGHS

0:30:54 > 0:30:56No.

0:30:59 > 0:31:01THIS is how it is.

0:31:03 > 0:31:06I've been set up as some kind of a front, haven't I,

0:31:06 > 0:31:09seven years ago, by your government and my brother

0:31:09 > 0:31:12and you've both colluded to make sure I never found out?

0:31:12 > 0:31:13- We have absol...- I haven't finished!

0:31:13 > 0:31:17Now that I HAVE found out, this is what you're going to do about it.

0:31:17 > 0:31:20One. Your government will continue to support

0:31:20 > 0:31:23the Stein Group in all its activities.

0:31:23 > 0:31:25From now on, there will be no preferment policy

0:31:25 > 0:31:28in any institution to which my name is attached.

0:31:28 > 0:31:33Two. As we speak, our entire cable network is being swept

0:31:33 > 0:31:36and that will continue with your government's full support.

0:31:36 > 0:31:40Three. If, for whatever reason, this happens in the future,

0:31:40 > 0:31:43it doesn't matter what you do or what you say,

0:31:43 > 0:31:47you will be doing it in public - because that's the stage I'll be on.

0:31:47 > 0:31:52And believe me, I'm very good on a public stage.

0:31:54 > 0:31:55SHE CLEARS HER THROAT

0:31:55 > 0:31:58Now you can speak.

0:32:00 > 0:32:03Your claim would damage you more than us,

0:32:03 > 0:32:05- no matter what. - You want to put that to the test?

0:32:05 > 0:32:09Because, believe me, I've got nothing else to lose.

0:32:16 > 0:32:18Your points have been noted, Miss Stein.

0:32:19 > 0:32:22Not that it matters, but I am a baroness.

0:32:22 > 0:32:26I was made one for my public efforts in international reconciliation.

0:32:26 > 0:32:28My marriage status really doesn't come into it.

0:32:30 > 0:32:32One last thing. Whoever I choose

0:32:32 > 0:32:36as partner for the next phase of this project, you will support.

0:32:36 > 0:32:38Who have you chosen?

0:32:41 > 0:32:44Because of the recent, tragic loss of Samir Meshal,

0:32:44 > 0:32:47the Stein Group has had to re-launch our search

0:32:47 > 0:32:50for a partner on the Phase Three roll-out

0:32:50 > 0:32:54of fibre-optic broadband into the Palestinian territories.

0:32:54 > 0:32:58After an extensive process, I am delighted to announce

0:32:58 > 0:33:02that Jalal El-Amin and Tahet Technology has won the contract

0:33:02 > 0:33:06to share in the next stage of this exciting journey.

0:33:44 > 0:33:47Whatever it is you think you're going to find, you won't.

0:33:47 > 0:33:49It's gone. So's my brother.

0:33:49 > 0:33:52- JALAL EL-AMIN: Good. - So give the boy back.

0:33:52 > 0:33:53Soon.

0:33:54 > 0:33:56When?

0:33:56 > 0:34:00Go to Hebron. Open Phase Three.

0:34:00 > 0:34:03Do that and all will be well. Trust me.

0:34:03 > 0:34:05All you have to do is shake my hand.

0:34:19 > 0:34:21OK, same to you.

0:34:21 > 0:34:24That was Monica Chatwin

0:34:24 > 0:34:28calling to congratulate me on my brave choice of partner.

0:34:30 > 0:34:32Well, maybe she should be advising you, then,

0:34:32 > 0:34:34because you're certainly not listening to me.

0:34:34 > 0:34:36It took your analyst, what,

0:34:36 > 0:34:39three strokes of a keyboard to link the El-Amin family to the PLO?

0:34:39 > 0:34:42- PLO run the Authority now. - You know what I mean.

0:34:45 > 0:34:47Where are we?

0:34:54 > 0:34:56A sniffer on all international traffic

0:34:56 > 0:34:58in and out of the Territories.

0:35:00 > 0:35:03Are you sure the Israelis put it there?

0:35:03 > 0:35:05Well, they'll deny it anyway.

0:35:06 > 0:35:08And the Palestinians had suspicions of their own

0:35:08 > 0:35:11so they decided to get a man in on the inside of the Stein Group.

0:35:13 > 0:35:15Night before he left Washington,

0:35:15 > 0:35:19Samir Meshal made a call into the Palestinian Territories.

0:35:19 > 0:35:23It lasted four seconds, and whatever he said...

0:35:24 > 0:35:26..someone heard.

0:35:26 > 0:35:27And that got him killed.

0:35:27 > 0:35:32Now, with him, his people had all the time they needed to discredit me

0:35:32 > 0:35:35and put him in with Nessa.

0:35:35 > 0:35:39But after they lost him, the new fucker - what's his name?

0:35:39 > 0:35:44El-Amin. They had to be more blunt.

0:35:45 > 0:35:46And take the child.

0:35:47 > 0:35:48Is my guess.

0:35:48 > 0:35:51Which is why she agreed to make him a partner -

0:35:51 > 0:35:54- to get the boy back.- Yeah.

0:35:55 > 0:35:58All this for a housekeeper's kid?!

0:36:00 > 0:36:04In a child's eyes, the world entire.

0:36:04 > 0:36:06I wouldn't know, I don't have one.

0:36:13 > 0:36:15This doesn't add up.

0:36:15 > 0:36:18If the Palestinians were suspicious of the Steins,

0:36:18 > 0:36:21why didn't they just say it out loud?

0:36:21 > 0:36:23Maybe they want proof.

0:36:23 > 0:36:25They're not going to get that. Not now.

0:36:25 > 0:36:27Whatever it is they want,

0:36:27 > 0:36:32they want it with Nessa Stein staying exactly where she is.

0:36:38 > 0:36:40Why?

0:39:35 > 0:39:36That's me.

0:39:45 > 0:39:46(You want to touch it?)

0:39:57 > 0:39:59I didn't want it.

0:40:01 > 0:40:03I didn't want any of it.

0:40:19 > 0:40:20Do you think you can do that?

0:40:22 > 0:40:24Yeah, very good. Give it to me.

0:40:30 > 0:40:32I have a boy your age.

0:40:35 > 0:40:37I hope he is brave too.

0:40:41 > 0:40:42Just like you.

0:40:45 > 0:40:47HE SIGHS

0:40:55 > 0:40:59HAYDEN-HOYLE: Just before he left America, and the day before he died,

0:40:59 > 0:41:03Samir Meshal made a telephone call into the Palestinian territories.

0:41:05 > 0:41:07Which your lot hear.

0:41:10 > 0:41:14So, what did he say that meant you had to go and kill him?

0:41:15 > 0:41:16We didn't kill him.

0:41:23 > 0:41:27You've probably heard the rumour that I only got this job

0:41:27 > 0:41:29because I slept with my boss.

0:41:30 > 0:41:32No, I hadn't.

0:41:35 > 0:41:37Oh, well, it's true, I did.

0:41:38 > 0:41:40It cost me my marriage.

0:41:42 > 0:41:43Well, what really cost me

0:41:43 > 0:41:47was because actually my wife didn't think I stood for anything.

0:41:48 > 0:41:50And the joke was, of course...

0:41:52 > 0:41:54..I didn't have to because all I had to do was...

0:41:56 > 0:41:58..lie down for it.

0:42:00 > 0:42:04Anyway, I'm a biddable night-watchman, that's me.

0:42:04 > 0:42:08And I know pretty soon someone's going to bowl me a googly

0:42:08 > 0:42:09and I'll be out.

0:42:11 > 0:42:13It's cricket. It's a cricket analogy.

0:42:13 > 0:42:15I don't know why I said it, I don't even play the game.

0:42:17 > 0:42:19But when that happens...

0:42:21 > 0:42:23..when it's all over...

0:42:25 > 0:42:30..I just want to be able to walk towards the pavilion thing,

0:42:30 > 0:42:32you know...

0:42:33 > 0:42:35..with my head held high.

0:42:38 > 0:42:39Just for once.

0:42:41 > 0:42:43I'd really like to do that, Judah.

0:42:45 > 0:42:47I really would.

0:42:52 > 0:42:54If that makes any sense.

0:43:00 > 0:43:03We didn't kill Samir Meshal.

0:43:07 > 0:43:09OK.

0:43:09 > 0:43:11Someone else did.

0:43:15 > 0:43:18We had heard something and we did want to pick him up,

0:43:18 > 0:43:20but, er, we didn't get the chance.

0:43:20 > 0:43:23- Because somebody else got there first.- Yes.- Who?

0:43:24 > 0:43:27- Whoever else was listening. - How would they do that?

0:43:27 > 0:43:29We don't know.

0:43:34 > 0:43:35What did you hear him say?

0:43:37 > 0:43:41"She...has...agreed."

0:43:44 > 0:43:47- That's it?- That's it.

0:43:48 > 0:43:50Who's "she"?

0:43:50 > 0:43:52What did she agree to?

0:43:52 > 0:43:54That's why I'm telling you.

0:43:55 > 0:43:58But someone knows, and whoever it is,

0:43:58 > 0:44:00they killed Samir Meshal.

0:44:14 > 0:44:17Ah! Delicious!

0:44:20 > 0:44:23So there is this service line.

0:44:23 > 0:44:28It's used for software updates, maintenance, that sort of thing.

0:44:28 > 0:44:33It's also another way in for someone to listen.

0:44:33 > 0:44:35Piggy-backing onto the same device?

0:44:35 > 0:44:37Seems so.

0:44:39 > 0:44:44- Who?- Well, you think I would have waited this long if I had that news?

0:44:46 > 0:44:51There's no number attached to it, so we can't tell where it goes,

0:44:51 > 0:44:54and it doesn't come back for billing.

0:44:54 > 0:44:58So all we can say is that it goes through us,

0:44:58 > 0:45:00and then...

0:45:00 > 0:45:02HE WHISTLES AND SPEAKS IN YIDDISH

0:45:02 > 0:45:05On its own sweet way.

0:45:07 > 0:45:09Is it still live?

0:45:09 > 0:45:11Mm-hm.

0:45:14 > 0:45:15Good.

0:45:16 > 0:45:18Then, let's switch it off.

0:45:18 > 0:45:21No, you do that, the whole thing goes kaput.

0:45:21 > 0:45:23(No, no, no...)

0:45:23 > 0:45:27Like it's a technical fault, completely innocent.

0:45:27 > 0:45:28Mm.

0:45:28 > 0:45:34Then all we have to do is wait and see who comes to fix it.

0:45:57 > 0:45:59Shouldn't take him a minute.

0:46:15 > 0:46:17BEEPING

0:46:20 > 0:46:21BEEPING

0:46:21 > 0:46:22They're back on.

0:46:45 > 0:46:47BEEPING

0:46:52 > 0:46:53Let me know where they end up.

0:47:04 > 0:47:07SLOW BEEPING

0:47:11 > 0:47:14We'll get something new, I know we will.

0:47:14 > 0:47:17And this time it won't be for anyone else -

0:47:17 > 0:47:19not your father, your sister.

0:47:21 > 0:47:23It'll just be for you.

0:47:23 > 0:47:24And me.

0:47:26 > 0:47:27And the girls.

0:47:29 > 0:47:32You're a wonderful father, Ephra.

0:47:32 > 0:47:34Don't let them see you like this.

0:48:07 > 0:48:10I'm stuck in a loop, aren't I?

0:48:10 > 0:48:12Playing Neil Diamond records?

0:48:12 > 0:48:14Thinking about it.

0:48:14 > 0:48:16Then, yes, you are.

0:48:17 > 0:48:19I can change.

0:48:19 > 0:48:21Would that involve black denim?

0:48:21 > 0:48:24- It could if you wanted it to. - I don't.

0:48:24 > 0:48:25Then it won't.

0:48:27 > 0:48:28Do you spy on me?

0:48:29 > 0:48:32I mean, not like that...

0:48:32 > 0:48:33I mean like this.

0:48:34 > 0:48:36What a question!

0:48:39 > 0:48:44I've just texted you the address of a restaurant.

0:48:46 > 0:48:47Thursday, 8pm.

0:48:47 > 0:48:49It'll be a window seat.

0:48:50 > 0:48:53- Great.- For you to spy on.

0:48:54 > 0:48:56There's something I want you to see.

0:49:00 > 0:49:02TEXT ALERT

0:49:06 > 0:49:08MONITOR BEEPS

0:49:12 > 0:49:16REPEATING SEQUENCE OF BEEPS

0:49:19 > 0:49:21You'd better come and look at this.

0:49:43 > 0:49:46Tell me it's not that fucking easy!

0:49:49 > 0:49:51DOOR SHUTS

0:50:01 > 0:50:02America.

0:50:02 > 0:50:06May I say you look particularly fetching in that shade of blue?

0:50:06 > 0:50:09The Americans killed Samir Meshal.

0:50:13 > 0:50:16I thought we'd agreed to look away from that particular direction.

0:50:16 > 0:50:18I did. I looked so far the other way

0:50:18 > 0:50:20I seem to have come round full circle.

0:50:24 > 0:50:25BEEP

0:50:37 > 0:50:39I trust you don't need me to translate.

0:50:39 > 0:50:43SHE REPLIES IN ARABIC

0:50:44 > 0:50:46If only my arsehole were big enough.

0:50:48 > 0:50:50Who did you get that from?

0:50:52 > 0:50:53Really?

0:50:53 > 0:50:56Who has agreed to what?

0:50:56 > 0:51:00Ah, well, no, that bit I really can't tell because I simply don't know.

0:51:02 > 0:51:05Don't go growing a pair of balls on me, Hugh, not at this late stage,

0:51:05 > 0:51:07I might get jealous.

0:51:07 > 0:51:10Do you think maybe that's why my hair's falling out?

0:51:10 > 0:51:13I think what you're doing now could have a serious effect on your health.

0:51:13 > 0:51:18As long as I have your support, Julia, I'm happy to live dangerously.

0:51:19 > 0:51:22I do have your support...

0:51:25 > 0:51:26..don't I?

0:51:29 > 0:51:31Stay away from the Americans, Hugh.

0:51:31 > 0:51:32Seriously.

0:51:34 > 0:51:38Got a nice little Ivy League chancellorship hiding up your sleeve?

0:51:41 > 0:51:44I have a strange concern for a long-term colleague

0:51:44 > 0:51:46with whom I once used to sleep.

0:51:48 > 0:51:49Oh.

0:51:50 > 0:51:52Now, that IS a surprise.

0:52:20 > 0:52:21Something will happen.

0:52:21 > 0:52:23I'm sure it will.

0:52:25 > 0:52:26Soon.

0:52:29 > 0:52:31But if it was me...

0:52:33 > 0:52:37..well...you know what it would be like if it was me.

0:52:47 > 0:52:49There's something you should know.

0:52:55 > 0:52:57How many other lies are you going to keep

0:52:57 > 0:52:59- in this house? - She shouldn't have told you.

0:52:59 > 0:53:01And that's supposed to make me feel what?

0:53:01 > 0:53:04- I only just found out myself. - And you didn't tell me!

0:53:04 > 0:53:05It wasn't mine to say!

0:53:05 > 0:53:07Your own wife!

0:53:07 > 0:53:11Which secret is the one you don't tell your own wife?

0:53:11 > 0:53:14I have no secrets from you.

0:53:14 > 0:53:16I tell you everything.

0:53:16 > 0:53:19If your sister swore you to secrecy, you'd keep it, I know you would.

0:53:19 > 0:53:21- The child belongs to her.- Yes.

0:53:21 > 0:53:23I wouldn't keep that secret, not that one.

0:53:23 > 0:53:27Not when our whole life's been turned inside out because of it!

0:53:27 > 0:53:29And why did SHE agree to it?

0:53:29 > 0:53:31I don't know, Rachel! I don't know!

0:53:32 > 0:53:36What those two have been through, we can't even begin to understand, can we?

0:53:36 > 0:53:38I do, when it's wrecking my marriage.

0:53:38 > 0:53:39It's not.

0:53:43 > 0:53:46I said I'd support you, but what does that mean?

0:53:49 > 0:53:51You lied to your sister.

0:53:51 > 0:53:53You lied about your business.

0:53:53 > 0:53:56You've lied about the Academy, you've lied to everyone. Ephra...

0:53:58 > 0:54:00And now you've lied to me.

0:54:00 > 0:54:05I'm the one who got them out, Rachel! Me! I got them out!

0:54:06 > 0:54:08If I hadn't, they'd have died!

0:54:09 > 0:54:12Do you understand that? They would have died!

0:54:12 > 0:54:16And there's nothing you or anybody else could have done about it.

0:54:16 > 0:54:17Except I did. I did!

0:54:19 > 0:54:21And all this, all this shit...

0:54:21 > 0:54:23this is what it cost me!

0:54:26 > 0:54:28You shouldn't have lied to me.

0:54:29 > 0:54:32Not under my own roof.

0:54:42 > 0:54:44Have I caught you at a bad time?

0:54:44 > 0:54:45What do you want?

0:54:45 > 0:54:49What, no vampire comparisons?

0:54:49 > 0:54:51Just...get on with it.

0:54:53 > 0:54:54OK.

0:54:56 > 0:54:57I know what you did.

0:54:59 > 0:55:01To get your sister out of Gaza,

0:55:01 > 0:55:04the Israelis nailed you for a sniffer on your cables

0:55:04 > 0:55:07and a listening unit within your Academy.

0:55:11 > 0:55:13That's quite a price to pay.

0:55:15 > 0:55:17It was worth it.

0:55:23 > 0:55:24That must be hard...

0:55:25 > 0:55:28..to be a hero that nobody thanks.

0:55:29 > 0:55:31Tell that to my wife.

0:55:32 > 0:55:35Yes, well, not many people will understand.

0:55:37 > 0:55:39But you do.

0:55:42 > 0:55:44Nothing I've done...

0:55:44 > 0:55:47I can ever say it was worth it.

0:55:53 > 0:55:54But I'd like to.

0:55:56 > 0:55:57Even now.

0:56:00 > 0:56:01What is it that you want?

0:56:03 > 0:56:07Who else did you tell? About the wiretap?

0:56:12 > 0:56:13One of yours.

0:56:16 > 0:56:18Who?

0:56:21 > 0:56:22Monica...

0:56:22 > 0:56:24BOTH: ..Chatwin.

0:56:36 > 0:56:37SHUTTER CLICKS

0:56:39 > 0:56:41SHUTTER CLICKING

0:56:56 > 0:56:57GUNSHOT

0:56:59 > 0:57:01Tariq! Tariq!

0:57:01 > 0:57:03BOY WHEEZES Tariq!

0:57:03 > 0:57:05Tariq!

0:57:05 > 0:57:07SHOUTS IN ARABIC

0:57:09 > 0:57:11- OK, OK, OK. - SHOUTS IN ARABIC

0:57:13 > 0:57:14Tariq!

0:57:14 > 0:57:16THEY SPEAK IN ARABIC

0:57:29 > 0:57:30Hey, where are you going, huh?

0:57:30 > 0:57:32- REPLIES IN ARABIC - No, no, no.

0:57:32 > 0:57:35You cannot tell them about me, you have to say the gun was yours, OK?

0:57:35 > 0:57:36You kept it loaded!

0:57:43 > 0:57:46The gun is yours.

0:57:46 > 0:57:47OK?

0:57:47 > 0:57:49OK, huh?

0:57:50 > 0:57:51Say it, OK?

0:57:57 > 0:57:59Call the ambulance when I'm gone.

0:57:59 > 0:58:00Your boy is strong.

0:58:00 > 0:58:02He will survive.

0:58:02 > 0:58:04But I was never here.

0:58:26 > 0:58:27I need help.
