Fay's an American citizen!

Only Fay has this number.

Come on, let's do it then.

Fay?

Put Bebe on.

I can't. It's dangerous right now.

I'll call you back.

No.

She's not letting me.

Put Bebe on.

Fay... don't let them send me away.

Bebe, no one is going to hurt you.

Do you understand me?

- But they...

- They will let you go.

I promise.

When they do...

...go to where the sweet things are.

Understand?

If you understand don't say anything.

Understand?

Put Fulbright on.

Fay, let me bring you in.

This has gotten out of hand.

Let Bebe go.

Where is Jallal Said Khan?

I don't know. Nearby. I think.

But he's going away.

Khan's nearby and he's on the move.

Fulbright, let her go, she's unimportant.

No! Where's Fool?

We need Fool! You don't understand!

We cannot help suppress related

terror groups if Khan is not in custody.

We must have Khan.

Fay, you're in no real position

to strong arm anybody, you know.

Bebe has told us everything.

Listen, you jerk,

that entire building is wired to explode.

Bomb threat.

She's bluffing.

Maybe, but she's been able

to make contact with Said Khan.

None of us in London have managed that.

Not even us, with all our contacts in Moscow.

It seems she's better connected

than we imagined.

Sh*t, what now?

Sir, the power's been cut.

All communications are down.

Fay, listen... take it easy.

Let Bebe go. Now!

And if anyone else leaves

that building before 15 minutes...

...the entire place explodes. Got it?

Okay. Where are the books?

Let Bebe leave the building.

She's gone.

Give me that quick...

Call back the number.

We'll have the exact coordinates.

Angus?

Wait! They've got Khan!

- Where?

- In Diyarbakir.

On his way to the border with Iran.

- Captured?

- Surrounded. He's wounded.

You must keep him alive!

Let's go!

To the airport! Call ahead for ground support!

Oh, I just knew you would be good.
