[bird caws]
[shivering, gasps]
[sniffles, panting]
[car approaching]
[grunts, panting]
- Come on, girls.
- Shit.
- [dog barks]
- Oh, God. [pants]
She'll not get far out here.
Not on foot.
- We should call Lang.
- What?
And tell him you fucked up? Come on.
- [Marsha grunts]
- [barking]
[grunts]
[grunts, pants]
[barking continues]
[radio chatter]
[in German] What happened?
They got away. But I made contact.
[in English] Whoa, whoa, whoa. Contact?
[in German] Control. What's going on?
[in English] Who did you shoot?
Hey! Where's the train?
[Murnau, in German]
We're locating the train.
- No update on casualties.
- [in English] What did they say?
[Murnau, in German]
Stand by for further instructions.
[Clara] They must have
changed lines somehow.
So much for your "dead-end".
Commander Wolf had
a positive ID on both of them.
He had a shot, he took it.
Yes, but we don't know who he hit
Either way, it's one hijacker down,
one to go.
And as soon as they find the train,
we finish the job.
[Ada] Clara
[Clara] 2600 please come in.
Otto, are you there?
Is everyone ok? Where are you?
[in English] Otto, no, don't answer that.
- [Otto] Let me stop and help you.
- No.
No, no stopping.
- This isn't for me.
- Fuck.
[grunts] Why did they shoot me?
- [Sam] He was aiming for me.
- [sighs, groans, winces]
He must have missed.
These people don't fucking miss.
- Jesus.
- We can't go on like this.
[Sam] We have to.
We're this close. We're this close.
If we can get everyone off this train.
Give these people what they want.
[panting]
[exhales] As long as
they've got Marsha
then that's what we have to do.
[Jess breathes shakily]
[groans]
[winces]
["Kiss The Sky" plays]
I hold my head up
Just enough to see the sky ♪
And when we go We won't go slow ♪
We'll put up such a fight ♪
And you will be one day
Exactly what you are ♪
Just keep your head held high ♪
Kiss your fist and touch the sky ♪
Too late to keep the world from dying ♪
One day ♪
Whoo ♪
We'll all be there ♪
Yeah, yeah, yeah Yeah, yeah, yeah ♪
[song ends]
[Ada, in German] So, where's that train?
He changed the points
just before Bergmannstrasse.
We're assuming he's somewhere on the U6.
Let's not assume anything. Find him.
If we locate the train,
they will kill him.
That's out of our hands, Clara.
[Jess] How did they know?
Come on.
How did they know?
They would've never shot me
unless they thought I was a hostile.
Tell me.
Come on!
- [sniffles]
- How did they know?
Yeah. We told them.
We did.
Okay?
Well, we had to.
What did you expect?
Fuck. [sobs]
Fuck!
[Ada] I'm in a difficult situation here.
It seems you were right about Sam Nelson.
[Faber] He didn't kill that passenger?
It appears he has an accomplice.
Sam's not the aggressor here.
He's being coerced.
Okay. And what intelligence do you have?
[scoffs] We know
he was lured here to Berlin.
This whole thing is
it's a set up to frame him.
[Ada] Regardless,
there's still hundreds of lives at stake.
GSG 9 will be raiding that train
at the next opportunity
and their principal target is Sam Nelson.
Right now, I have no reason
to call them off.
But if he's not in control
then how does killing him save lives?
If he's not in control, then who is?
Get me that proof.
Guess this handover ain't happening then?
You better hope it happens,
'cause this is your ticket out.
What?
This is all for you.
So, if you play along, you'll be
a free man by the end of the day.
I'm going to get some air.
[line ringing]
- [Jess sniffles]
- [phone buzzes]
[sniffles]
[grunts]
[sighs] Well, we're all dead now.
No. No.
[Jess grunts, sniffs]
No, he needs me alive, okay.
If he wanted to blow the train,
he would've done it ages ago. Pick it up.
Convince him that everything's okay.
- [chuckles]
- [phone buzzing]
Stop fucking about. Pick it up.
We avoided the ambush.
Who was shot?
[Sam] We're fine.
Are you sure about that?
Look, if I don't hear her voice
I'm gonna assume the mission
is compromised, and I will end it.
No evidence. No loose ends.
And that includes Marsha.
[beeping]
[Lang] I'm waiting.
[sighs, inhales deeply]
We can still make this handover.
We just need a new destination.
Ideally somewhere they can't put
another fucking bullet in my shoulder.
Get above ground.
[Jess] We'll be sitting ducks.
They won't attack you
if they've got an audience, will they?
He's right.
Otto, is there is there
a way to bring the train to the surface?
Uh
[panting] There is a depot at Britz-Süd.
- It's a big train yard.
- Perfect.
Can you get us there?
- I can try.
- [Lang] All right.
Tell the control center
that's where you're headed.
No. No, no, no, no.
No more talking to them
until we get somewhere
where they can't screw us over again.
Look, just get the train there
and I'll take care of the rest.
- Hi.
- Hey.
- How you doing? It's cold, right?
- Good. It's freezing.
Have you got some information for us?
Um Possibly.
- Uh, can we talk off the record, please?
- Yeah.
I've pulled the evidence
from the German police.
They're not delighted about it, but I
promised I'd have it back within the hour.
If it takes an hour, it'll be too late.
It looks like it's all here.
Um, his phone, his passport,
the briefcase he left at Alexanderplatz.
Ah, yes, the bomb.
[laptop chimes on]
Boom.
[beeping]
[alarm buzzes]
[in German] No, please no
[in English] What's happening?
[sighs] We're losing power.
[Otto sighs]
The explosion?
I reckon.
I guess we better check it out.
- [grunts]
- No.
I'll go.
Just wait wait.
[sighs] You should know
Know what?
[Otto] I tried to help her.
[Sam] Tried to help who, Otto?
[speaking German]
I'm so sorry.
Get us off this train.
[train wheels screech]
I thought you said
this would be over soon.
[Sam] I'm working on it.
[kisses]
[breathes deeply, sucks teeth]
[alarm buzzing]
- [speaks German]
- [Jess] You need to keep going.
If we stop and they find us,
they'll strike again.
What do you expect me to do?
[Sam] Hey.
This isn't one train. It's two.
[stammers] Uh, technically, yes.
[Sam] Yeah. Two pairs of carriages,
joined in the middle.
The problem's in the back two. So
if we could ditch them we can keep going.
[Jess] You Is it possible?
Can we decouple the train?
Yeah, yes, but we don't have much time.
So then we have to be quick.
[dogs barking]
We need to tell him we've lost her.
When Lang hears she's figured it out,
he'll want her dead.
And if he hears we've lost her,
he'll want us dead.
So let's find her.
[dog barking, growling]
Where are you going?
If I'm Marsha, I'm calling for help.
I'm heading to high ground.
Come on.
[reporter, in German] These are
live pictures from a U-bahn depot
in South East Berlin
which our sources claim is going to play
a pivotal role in this train hijacking.
What do they know that we don't?
[sighs]
The press seem convinced
something's about to happen there.
That's Britz-Süd.
On the U7.
He must have switched lines.
Well at least now we know
where he's heading
But we can't attack
while everyone's watching.
And he knows that.
He's forcing our hand.
The only question is
Can we catch him before he gets there?
And when you catch him
what then?
Target is on the U7, west of Britz-Süd.
Prepare to deploy.
Let's go, people!
[in English] Hey. Are we going?
[Wolf] You're not going anywhere.
Stay here and wait for orders.
You have a new target.
We're heading east along the U7.
Copy.
Most of this stuff is older than me.
Hey, can we talk?
One intelligence operative to another.
Look, let's compare notes.
'Cause in my experience it's always
better when everyone's on the same page.
- Yeah? Yeah.
- Mmm.
So, GSG 9. Have they been stood down?
No. They're redeploying.
They're redeploying.
Do we know where?
Okay. My turn.
Why have you been briefing the press?
I can see you don't understand
the concept of sharing. We're done.
What about all the phone calls?
Who else are you talking to?
One intelligence operative to another.
[Murnau, in German] Linder, come in.
[grunting]
[grunting]
[grunting]
[dog barking]
[panting]
That's it. Good girls. Come.
[panting, grunting]
[panting]
[grunting]
[grunts] Please. Come on. Come on.
- Come on.
- [chiming]
Come on, come on. [panting]
[chuckles]
His transport just pulled up.
- They'll send him out shortly.
- Cheers.
[phone buzzing]
It's Marsha.
Hey.
I was worried about you.
You with Nick?
[panting] Nick's dead.
[Daniel] You what
Look, you were right
to be worried about me.
I don't know how they knew I was
gonna be here or-or what they want.
But they they've got dogs
and they've got
- Okay, Marsha, listen to me.
- they've guns
You stay there. We'll
get a helicopter up.
[panting] Why are
they doing this, Daniel?
[Daniel] I don't know.
It sounds like they're using you
to make Sam do whatever they want.
And they're choosing
today because of wh
Because of Kai.
[Daniel] Yeah. Now, I'm sorry Marsha. But
look, we're doing everything that we
- I need to talk to Sam.
- Not possible.
Heidi, get me
the Air Support Unit in Glasgow, please.
Drop me your location now.
I don't know how long
my phone's gonna last.
Listen, you-you-you just
You just stay there, okay.
We're coming to you. It'll be all right.
I love you.
I love you too. [panting]
[phone chimes]
This is DCI Gahfoor.
I need an aerial search 50 miles
north of Inverness.
I'm sending you the coordinates now.
Kidnapping family members,
using them as collateral?
If that's not Cheapside,
then I don't know what is.
Let's go.
- Call 'em off.
- [alarm sounds]
- Daniel.
- What are you talking about?
Get this prick off me.
[grunts] If anything happens to Marsha,
I will personally guarantee
that you fucking die just
like the rest of your family.
These cameras all on, are they?
Are we getting all this?
He murdered my mate. He was one of us.
You know how we usually deal
with cop killers, don't ya?
Arrest me.
- [grunting]
- No. Daniel. Not like this.
- Right. Get him out of here. And him.
- Scary man.
Come on.
- Muppet.
- Move.
[gate buzzes]
Look, we'll get her, okay?
And if he's involved, we'll get him too.
[breathes heavily] But we
have to catch him in the act.
[breathes heavily]
[sniffs]
[phone ringing]
[prison officer] Belmarsh HSU?
Yes, ma'am, we got the request.
Yep.
Yeah, it's happening now.
[gate buzzes]
If they find anything,
you'll be the first to know.
[gate buzzes, unlocks]
If he finds out you've been here,
he will not be a happy boy.
[scoffs] Let me help you.
[reporter] stranded across
the entire network
after reports of a possible explosion.
We're in.
[clicks tongue]
Okay. We'll start to scrape his emails.
- This is the bit that could take a while.
- [phone buzzing]
[Faber] Is someone gonna answer that?
It's her.
[panting]
[Olivia] Hello, is that Marsha?
- [breathes shakily] Who who is this?
- My name's Olivia.
I work with the British
embassy in Berlin.
We have been trying to reach you.
I-I need to get a message to Sam.
I'm afraid he's been caught
up in a terrible incident.
No, no. Please. He needs to hear
my voice. I haven't got much time.
Y Yes.
[sighs]
[tape recorder beeps, clicks]
Okay. Marsha, go ahead.
[breathes shakily]
Sam
it's me.
Look, I know you're going to be
worried about me, but I'm okay.
Don't let them use me against you.
Not today.
- [dog barking]
- Oh, God. I've got to go.
[Olivia] This is the proof
Winter was asking for.
Take these to the control center
along with the other evidence.
Graham will arrange a police escort.
[dog barking]
[dog barks]
Maybe she'll freeze to death.
Look, can you tell me
who sent Sam these emails or not?
I don't think I'll ever be able to say
exactly who Nelson was talking to.
You broke into his laptop easily enough.
What's the problem?
Well, let's just say,
whoever Nelson was talking to,
they were using a lot more
sophisticated protection than he was.
[sighs]
Look, I didn't want
to say anything earlier,
but I spoke to a contact at GCHQ,
and they agreed with my assessment.
[sighs] They covered their tracks well.
Used P2P encryption, fake identities.
With tradecraft like this,
it only points to one thing
You think it's someone who works
within the intelligence community?
Military intelligence, most likely.
German?
Certainly someone with
boots-on-the-ground knowledge.
Someone on the inside.
[screeching]
[alarm buzzing]
Okay.
It won't go much further.
If we're going to do this, do it now.
You'll talk us through the process?
Yes. Like I said, one person in each cab.
I can tell you what to do
when you get there.
You gonna be okay?
[sighs] What do you think?
[Otto] We'll need both of you.
All right. You help me do this one thing,
and then you get off.
You get the help you need.
[Otto] We should do it
after this next station.
- [intercom chimes]
- [electronic voice] Karl-Marx-Strasse.
[Murnau, in German] Murnau to Wolf.
What is your location?
- [horns honking]
- [sirens blaring]
[Wolf] We're following the U7 eastbound.
Good. The train's been sighted at
Karl-Marx-Strasse. Prepare to intercept.
Understood.
Make ready.
[horn honking]
- [Colin] Make some space, please.
- [Sam] May I get by, please.
- [Lukas] Give the man some space.
- [Colin] Come on, wake up.
[Colin] What's going on?
What's wrong with her?
Coming through.
- Hello!
- Hey, hey, hey, hey!
Keep going. You've got this.
[passenger 1] I got this. I got this.
Everyone else?
- Look at me.
- Jess, come on.
[Lukas] Please, just tell us
what's going on.
Follow me.
- Why?
- Just do it. You and all the kids.
No way. No. We're not following you.
They will
if they want to get off the train.
This could be your only chance.
Let's L-Let's do it, come on.
- Let's do-do Guys, come on.
- Go on.
Are you all right?
[groaning]
Benji Dönitz
Yeah Yeah, Benji, my boy,
you helped us, remember?
- Yeah
- Can you tell me if I'll see him again?
Let's go. This way. Quick.
Just move quick.
All right. Quickly, please. Come on.
[groans]
Can I do something? Is there anything?
- [Jess groans]
- You're hurt badly.
[Sam] All right. Let's go. Move. Quickly.
- Hurry up. Come on. Let's go.
- Hey, where are you guys g
- Hey [speaks German]
- And you.
Go. Go.
All right, that's it.
Through the driver's cab
to the rear carriage.
[grunts]
- We have to keep moving or we're dead.
- [Jess groans]
All right?
We got to get to the depot.
- Okay.
- Okay?
- Mm-hmm. [grunts]
- Let's go.
[Sam] Move, please. Keep going.
Keep moving.
Move out the way. Move out the way.
Okay. Uh. Go to the back of the train.
[in German] We're getting off!
We're getting off!
We're getting off!
Did you hear that, my love?
We're getting off.
Keep going.
Come on. Come on.
Just keep going. Come on.
[clamoring]
Let's go. Let's go.
Keep going. Keep moving.
- [Jess] Wait. What are you doing?
- Come on.
- Wait. No, no. I didn't agree to this.
- It's okay.
If he finds out you're letting
people off, he'll lose his shit.
Listen, we have to lose
half of this train to keep going.
He'll understand that. Okay?
We've still got collateral.
And if we can get some of these kids off,
it's worth trying.
Come on. Come on.
Keep going. Just keep going.
Come on. Becca?
Come on.
Becca.
- Rebecca, come on. You can do it.
- I can't. I can't!
Hey. This is your chance to get off.
G Get back.
Hey! Come here!
Stay.
What's happening?
- Come on!
- We're staying.
Okay. Time's up.
- Colin!
- Just go that way.
Keep moving. Keep moving, let's go.
- Shut the door. Shut the door.
- [groaning]
No, no. Ot Otto.
[Jess groans]
Otto, don't stop the train yet.
[Otto] It's not me
It's stopping itself.
[dramatic music plays]
- [Sam] Shit.
- [train powers down]
All right. We have to do this now. Now.
[Otto] Look for a button marked "E-K-V."
When I push mine, yours will light up.
Yes, got it.
Then you need to both push yours
at the same time.
- [chimes]
- [Jess grunts]
Now, you go.
[beeping]
No, it's not working.
Some
- [groans]
- [beeping]
Jess. Jess, push the button,
so we can get out of here.
- [groans]
- Jess.
Just do this one last thing,
and then I'll take it from here.
We go our separate ways.
You never have to see me again.
- Come on, if we stay here, we're dead.
- [winces]
[Wolf, in German] Visual on train.
500 meters West of Neukölln.
[Murnau] Very good. Secure the perimeter.
Understood?
[Wolf] Understood.
In position.
[Murnau] Hold there and be ready.
- Understood.
- [elevator dings]
[Ada] They've located the train?
Yes. It's west of the depot
it's come to a stop in the tunnel.
[in English] Wait. [panting]
You need to listen to this.
[Murnau, in German] Ada.
We don't have time for distractions.
Wolf's team are in position.
Thirty seconds.
That's all I'm asking for.
[Marsha] Sam It's me.
Look, I know you're going to be
worried about me, but I'm okay.
Don't let them use me against you.
Not today.
- Oh, God. I've got to go.
- [dog barking]
[Wolf, in German] Still in position
Copy. Standby
[in English] That was Marsha?
- The mother of his child?
- Yeah.
This explains everything.
If we're going to strike,
we need to do it now.
This is our last opportunity.
This is the proof you needed
that Sam is being coerced.
That may be the case,
but it doesn't change the fact
that he has taken hundreds of hostages.
- Strike team are ready.
- Good.
On your word, Mr. Diehl kills the power
and they will take the train.
Ada, please.
This isn't Sam.
Someone else has their finger
on the trigger.
Finding them is the
only way to stop this.
[Sam] We can still do this.
Come on.
Even if I escape, when he finds out,
he's-he's never gonna let me live anyway.
No loose ends, that's how it works.
Look, you might be prepared
to die today. I might be too.
But you and I, we made a choice.
These people didn't.
[chuckling]
You didn't make a choice to be here.
No, but I had to accept the risk
to save other people.
You can too.
[Sam] Come on. Let those kids go.
[groaning]
Okay, Otto. Otto, we're back on.
[Otto] Okay. I'll press it again.
[chimes]
[grunts]
- Yeah. You did it. Good job.
- [groans, pants]
All right. Good.
Let's just get out of here.
Okay.
Otto, tell me that was you.
[Otto] This wasn't me.
[breathes heavily]
They're coming.
[sighs] They're coming. [inhales sharply]
[suspenseful music playing]
[Wolf, in German]
Entering the rear carriage now.
[breathing heavily]
Looks like heavy explosives.
[in English] Jesus.
- [in German] Moving up.
- [Murnau] Do you have a visual?
[breathing heavily]
[Wolf] No targets. No hostages.
- Pushing into Carriage 3.
- [Murnau] Copy.
[music continues]
[breathing heavily]
[Wolf] Holy shit.
[hostages clamoring]
Carriage 3 is full of hostages.
At least 50, mostly youngsters.
Extracting them now.
[Murnau] Very good. Proceed.
[Wolf] Move.
[whispering] Move. Move. Move.
Let's go. Quietly.
Keep going. Quickly.
[shushing]
Go. Go. Go. C'mon!
Move, move.
Move. Move. Move. Move.
It's all good, I'm right behind you.
C'mon! Move!
- But there's more up there
- Move!
There's more of us up there!
[Wolf] Two more people. Alive.
Correction. One alive.
Come! Come with me!
- Sorry you have to go.
- [grunts]
We've got her.
[troops speaking German]
Preparing to breach into carriage 2.
[in English, breathes shakily]
They're here.
[Wolf, in German] Breach!
Move, move, move.
[tense music plays]
[Sam, in English] I'm not armed.
[Wolf, in German] Tango 1 acquired.
Tango 2 identified
She's holding something
[Sam, in English] Jess, no!
[gunshots]
[Wolf, in German] Tango 2
neutralised.
[in English] Don't move!
[Sam] I'm not armed. I just want to talk.
[Wolf] Slowly.
[radio beeps]
[Sam] Clara
Can you hear me?
[Clara] Yes, Sam, we are listening.
[Sam] I've been speaking to you
since the beginning.
I've not lied to you.
I've not hurt anyone. You know that.
Now, you think I want to be here.
You think I want to have control.
You think if you shoot me, then
you save these passengers, but you don't.
You sentence them to death.
[Wolf, in German] I have a clear shot.
Awaiting orders.
[Murnau, in English] He's bluffing.
That's what he does.
He's not. It's exactly like I said.
Sam's not the real threat here.
[scoffs]
What is the alternative?
We continue with the handover?
[Sam] Clara, I promise you.
The only way to save these hostages
is to let this hijack continue.
Let's finish this properly.
Let's send this train
to the end of the line.
- [beeping]
- [train powers up]
Otto.
[beeping]
[intercom chimes]
[captain] Morning, ladies and gentlemen.
And welcome aboard this afternoon flight
from Berlin to Warsaw.
We are just boarding the last
of our passengers
then we'll be taking off shortly.
We should have you safe on the ground
in Warsaw in one hour and ten minutes.
Thank you.
Cabin crew, please prepare for departure.
- [intercom chimes]
- Let me help you with that
Marko.
Or is it Jozef?
It's really hard to keep track.
Who the hell are you?
You left your apartment
in kind of a mess.
But don't worry
we cleaned it all up for you.
And now you're going to help us.
[operative, in German]
Keep moving, this way
- [indistinct radio chatter]
- [hostages clamoring]
Hey, hey.
The hijackers, are they dead?
I can't tell you that.
And what about the kids?
Are they okay?
I'm afraid I can't tell you that either.
[phone buzzing]
[line ringing]
[tense music playing]
[Murnau] All units
We're moving the prisoner to Britz-Süd.
The handover is back on.
[Frohms] Linder,
we're leaving without you.
[chuckling] It's over.
They know you're innocent.
She's dead. [breathes heavily]
So we So we can just stop
and let everybody else off?
No. Not yet.
We continue.
We co
Why? Everyone knows
you're not the bad guy.
You have to keep pretending like I am.
Otherwise, none of these people are safe.
Neither is Marsha.
I'm just someone's puppet.
[gate buzzes, unlocks]
Move.
[gate buzzes, unlocks]
Who's touched my stuff?
Come on.
It stinks like cheap cologne and fags,
which means you fuckwits
have been in here.
Wash your mouth out.
Good job.
