The Day of the Jackal (2024) s01e09 Episode Script
Episode 9
1
The following programme contains
strong language and violent scenes.
(GLASSES CLINK)
JACKAL: You're an artist, my friend.
BIANCA: 3,815 metres.
You need military training
to make a shot
at even half that distance.
- There is one guy.
- Alexander Duggan
was an outstanding sniper.
ISABEL: But he's dead.
BIANCA: He went to Afghanistan.
The entire unit was wiped out.
But there was no body.
Something's not right.
So, Isabel tells me you want to
have a look at a STRAP 2 file,
because you think it'll
help you find the Jackal?
Yes.
ISABEL: I'll take the file, Osi.
This way, Mr. Halcrow.
- We need to talk.
- BIANCA: It a full blown mole hunt.
- I don't want her here, Paul.
- No one's trying to speak to you.
- I'm trying to talk to my husband
- Please, just go back inside, yeah.
Are you coming home?
Or are you staying here
with your fucking ex-wife?
Fuck you, you tyrant!
Tallinn was our one chance
and he missed.
UDC wants the world to know
that River will flow.
(SPEAKS SPANISH)
- Are you coming tomorrow?
- Yes.

What happened?
Morning.
You know, as far as they're concerned,

Does that concern you at all?
Because it should.

UDC: When I was a little boy,
my grandmother, my mum's mother,
from Hebron,
told me there's a fine line
between being revered
and being spat on.
And here we are,
it's a beautiful day
and no one's spitting on me.
They're just trying to kill me.
- (LAUGHS)
- They can try, but they'll never do it.
But
if I don't make it
promise me
you'll make River happen.
Ulle, I could promise,
but we both know I'd be lying.
The board hates River.
They do what you want
because they're afraid of you.
You mean in awe of me.
Yes, that's what I meant.
They're not in awe of me.
So, I suppose you'll just have to
stay alive, won't you.

(MONITOR BEEPING STEADILY)
Captain Baldwin, how you feeling?
Fucking terrible.
Mm.
Lung cancer
from the burn pits
in Helmand, is that right?
Eight of your men died there,
didn't they?
I'm so sorry that happened.
That must have been
a hellish experience for you.
What can you tell me
about Alexander Duggan?
You're not a doctor.
Who are you?
I'm with Six.
I need to ask you some questions
about what happened in Helmand.
It's all in the report.
I think you should leave now.
(SIGHS) I can't. Not until
you've answered my questions.
I'm not talking to MI6. Get out.
(BREATHES HEAVILY)
I want the nurse.
I want the nurse.
Of course. The nurse will come
once we've had our chat.
I need more morphine.
Then talk quickly.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
(KNOCKING ON DOOR)
Yep?
Ah. Come in, Bianca.
I've been trying to get into plants.
But I keep killing everything.
Ah, tough habit to break.
Also it's boring as fuck.
I want to update you
on the Jackal investigation.
I have some more information on Duggan.
Apparently, he was a loner.
Sit down.
The only person he was close with
was his spotter,
a guy called Gary Cobb.
So if Duggan's alive,
it's possible that Cobb is alive, too.
It's possible, but it's unlikely.
There's no evidence.
But it's a lead.
It's a theory more than a lead,
let's be honest.
Well, I'd like to test that theory
and see if I can find anything.
I don't think
that's going to be possible.
Why?
Because I'm closing the investigation.
You can't do that.
I can't make decisions
based on hunches.
- People have died.
- Too many people.
But I have a limited
amount of resources
and one man is not worth all this loss.
So we just admit defeat?
You really must learn to think
in a less binary way.
I am closing in on him.
It's not about you, Bianca,
and your need for closure.
This is about the big picture.
The greater good.
I just need a little more time.
And I need you to move on.
And if I don't?
(SIGHS)
I don't think you'll like
the answer to that question.
(PHONE LINE TRILLS)
Hi, this is Osita Halcrow,
please leave a message.

No.
Have I heard what?
It's

- OSI: Why am I here again, Carver?
- (HUSHED) Pick up, pick up, pick up.
Well, we still have
unanswered questions
about information
getting into the wrong hands.
- About Norman, about Belarus
- (SIGHS)
- about Hungary.
- We've been over that.
What you haven't told us,
is why your phone records
showed you received texts
from a number in the United States.
But when we looked for the texts,
- you had deleted them.

(SOFTLY) It's not.
But now we can have a conversation.
(EXHALING SHARPLY)
BIANCA: So you're not dead.
Why have you not been
answering your phone?
I've been busy.
I found out that Duggan and his
spotter Gary Cobb were inseparable.
- So?
- So?
This operation has been closed down.
As I'm sure you know.
I'm sorry, what is going on, Osi?!
Someone clearly doesn't give
two shits if the Jackal kills UDC-
Don't take this personally,
but please shut the fuck up!
No.
I can't.
(BREATHES SHAKILY) I
I-I'm not having this conversation.
Look, you can ignore me all you want
but I'm just disappointed.
I thought out of all the fucking

were the one that was different.

different is inadvisable.

(INHALES DEEPLY) No.
No, nothing's "OK" right now.
I've always been
clear about what I want
- and and why I'm doing it
- About your work?
Yeah, but everyth
I don't wanna talk about
your work, Bianca.
OK.
Because that's what a husband does.
And I don't know what I am
to you right now.
- I don't know where we're headed.
- I know where I wanna be headed.
Yeah, I know where I wanted
to be headed, too.
But what we want
and what's actually possible,
- they are two very different
- I miss you.
Yeah, I miss you, too.
(EXHALES HEAVILY)
And I know I'm a nightmare.
And this is where you say,
"You're not a nightmare, Bianca.
You're great."
- You ARE a nightmare.
- But you love it though.
No?
(GENTLE MUSIC)
- You love me.
- I do love you.
And I love you,
and isn't that what matters?
No. (SCOFFS)
Bianca, you're not here
you're not here because of us.
You're here because of
a problem at work.
That's that's not
that's not completely true.
(SCOFFS)
(SIGHS) Look, you were
really young when you had Jasmine.
- OK, you were really young
- Yeah, exactly.
- to make that choice.
- Exactly.
But it's not a one-time choice.
OK, you've got to keep
choosing it every day.
Not just when things
aren't working out for you.
But bec
because it's what you really want.
Erm
Look, if
Y'know, if Angela
sees you here, she's
she's gonna lose her shit, so

He's a fucking gangster.
He's dangerous.
The worst person you can meet in Cadiz!
- Alvaro was talking about me?
- Yeah.
I don't trust Alvaro.
He's He's made
some promises to Jimmy,
because he knows that
that you have money and

I don't know what else!
If Jimmy knows about you,
we're not safe.

for you, for me, for everybody.
OK, so where and when d'you need me?
- So you're coming?
- Yeah.
- You're coming?
- Yeah.
OK. OK, OK.
Where? Uh, you know La Victoria?
- Yeah.
- The beach?
You know the big hotel
with the restaurant
- Oh, the Sierra.
- in the beach.
Sierra. Hotel Sierra, yeah.
OK, what time?
Mm, one?
One o'clock at the Sierra.
One, Sierra Hotel,
- you and me?
- Yeah.
- OK?

And don't worry that
we have wine, good time,
and you pay nothing, eh?
This one I pay.
(CONTINUES INDISTINCTLY)
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
UDC: So, Marjorie, what's on your mind?
The Board wants you
to postpone River
- for one month.
- Absolutely not.
The DagHaus share price is in freefall.
In the last three days
you've personally lost
1.2 billion dollars.
This is media driven panic.
DagHaus is much more than River.
Our technologies and applications
are fundamental to the world economy.
But
let me make one thing
perfectly clear.
If a level playing field,
like the one River will make possible,
means that super rich people
like you and me
will have to give up
our yachts and private jets
so that young people
can have a decent future
well, personally,
that's something I embrace
with open arms.
OK.
If you launch tomorrow,
the entire board will walk.
I am here with their explicit approval.
Well, if you all wanna go
I guess you'll just have to go.
You really won't consider
a postponement?
River launches tomorrow.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
WHITELOCK: Thank you.

- Jeremy. Good to see you again.
- Pleasure as always, Tim.
- Please.
- Thank you.
(GRUNTS)
(CLEARS THROAT)
Yes, yes. I'm sorry
I don't have better news.
But, um
Well, I did speak to my colleague,
the Business Secretary,
about the possibility
of the European courts
placing an injunction
to stop the release of River.
But, um, well frankly,
he's not optimistic,
and neither am I.
Sorry.
"When we would accomplish great things,
the best policy
is to work by an engine
which the world never sees."
(CHUCKLES) Yes.
- I forget, who said that?
- Well, it's
It's very true.
(CHUCKLES) Rather brilliant.
Oh! Maybe it was me?
(BOTH CHUCKLE)
Yes.
Yes, maybe it was you.
So, all we have left
is our Hail Mary
- the Jackal.
- Yes, quite.
Where is the Jackal now?
Oh-ho-ho!
Charles.
(SPEAKS SPANISH)
Since a long time.
- Fine.
- Yeah!
- You?
- You look very well. You look trim.
Oh, thank you.
Thank you so much
for sorting this last minute.
- For how long you want to fish?
- Just a couple of hours, I think.
Yeah, I just need to
disconnect a little.
- So, you have a big relax.
- Yeah.
Water's perfect. So, just
- leave the keys in the usual place.
- Great, will do.
- OK.

The only person he was close with
was his spotter,
a guy called Gary Cobb.
So if Duggan's alive,
it's possible that Cobb is alive, too.
It's possible, but it's unlikely.
There's no evidence.
But it's a lead.
It's a theory more than a lead,
let's be honest.
Well, I'd like to test that theory
and see if I can find anything.
I don't think
that's going to be possible.
Why?
Because I'm closing the investigation.
You can't do that.
I can't make decisions
based on hunches.
- People have died.
- Too many people.
But I have a limited
amount of resources
and one man is not worth all this loss.
So we just admit defeat?
You really must learn to think
in a less binary way.
I am closing in on him.
It's not about you, Bianca,
and your need for closure.
This is about the big picture.
The greater good.
I just need a little more time.
And I need you to move on.
And if I don't?
(SIGHS)
I don't think you'll like
the answer to that question.

UDC: So, Marjorie, what's on your mind?
The Board wants you
to postpone River
- for one month.
- Absolutely not.
The DagHaus share price is in freefall.
In the last three days
you've personally lost
1.2 billion dollars.
This is media driven panic.
DagHaus is much more than River.
Our technologies and applications
are fundamental to the world economy.
But
let me make one thing
perfectly clear.
If a level playing field,
like the one River will make possible,
means that super rich people
like you and me
will have to give up
our yachts and private jets
so that young people
can have a decent future
well, personally,
that's something I embrace
with open arms.
OK.
If you launch tomorrow,
the entire board will walk.
I am here with their explicit approval.
Well, if you all wanna go
I guess you'll just have to go.
You really won't consider
a postponement?
River launches tomorrow.

But, um, well frankly,
he's not optimistic,

Sorry.
