Get those men

out of the warehouse immediately.

Palmer?

Stop, Major.

Don't say a word or I'll kill you.

Shut the door.

Don't say a word, not a word.

Right, over here.

There.

Get back to the wall, under the light.

Put it down.

- What the hell are you doing?

- Shut up.

Didn't tell me Dalby'd be here.

What has happened to you, Palmer?

One of you knows exactly

what has happened to me.

One of you is a double agent.

You're right, Palmer.

Who wanted you

to microfilm the Ipcress file?

I did that to test you.

Ross killed Carswell.

Don't be bloody ridiculous.

Ross couldn't have known that

Carswell had cracked the Ipcress file.

Courtney told him.

Jean was working for you?

Yes. I'd suspected this one

for some time.

It won't work, Ross.

You used Courtney

just as you've tried to use Palmer.

Ross killed the CIA man.

He framed you.

- You bastard.

- Oh dear!

You used to call me

a passed-over major.

Now, listen to me. Listen to me.

Shoot Ross.

Shoot the traitor now.

I was counting on you being

an insubordinate bastard, Palmer.

You used me as a decoy.

I might have been killed

or driven stark, raving mad.

That's what you're paid for.

Thank you.
