That was very...grown-up of you.

Yeah. Wasn't it?

It was clever of you to connect

Rogers with Beasley.

It was clever of you, too.

How did you do that?

Oh, I had help. You?

Oh, I had help too.

I knew Stirling would leap to

defend his friend Beasley.

He seemed to trust you completely.

You're right.

What was the reason for that?

All right, you don't

have to tell me.

Why? Would you rather not know?

That reassures me. I'm pleased.

After all, it means you can

still be hurt.

Oh, I can be hurt.

Good evening, sir.

You're on private property.

You're going to have to show me

your papers. That's not a problem.

At the station.

I can't come to the station now.

I'm afraid you don't have

a choice.

Listen, erm...one way or another,

I've got bad news.

Well, you wouldn't be Johnny

if you didn't.

I don't think we'll be able

to stay on the island.

How long have we got?

Maybe...three minutes.

Because you're English,

they don't actually kill you.

But they do make your life

unliveable. Can I say something?

Of course. Just so we're clear?

Please.

I didn't give up everything

because of you.

I know what this is about.

It's about British

collusion in torture. Isn't it?

Partly.

And the corruption of intelligence.

It's about all

the lies of the last ten years.

It's about the lying. Yes.

I am against torture.

So am I.

And I'm against it being covered up.

So anything I choose to do

isn't just because of you.

It's also

because it's time it was done.

We're going to have a go on

the run...

Looks like it.

We both know what that means.

We do.

Hand-to-mouth is putting it mildly.

One day to the next,

never being secure.

Margot, I've seen

the price people pay.

We'll pay that price.

An awful lot of things went wrong,

didn't they? Between us?

They certainly did.

This time it's going to be

different, I promise.

I'm going to give you no reason to

leave. None whatsoever.

I'll hold you to that.

Do we have too much luggage?

No. There's two of us now.

TANNOY:
'This is the final call

for Jet Blue flight 856.'

That's us.

Well, what do you think?

Give him a few minutes.

Are you sure? Sure. He'll come.

Face it, it's an island,

there's nowhere else he can go.

Hey. Hey, man. How was your lobster?

Oh. It wasn't for me. It was a gift.

Er, you haven't met.

This is my friend Margot Tyrell.

Hello.

This is Jim Carroll.

He's a policeman.

Show me your passports?

"Her Britannic Majesty's

Secretary of State requests

"and requires in the Name

of Her Majesty all those whom it may

"concern to allow the bearer to pass

freely without hindrance, and

"to afford the bearer such assistance

and protection as may be necessary."

These are British islands.

And you're holding British

passports.

You're free to go.

Thank you. Thank you. No, really.

Thank you very much.

Come back soon.

Goodbye.

Another?

Thank you.

Two more.

Well?

I'm all at sea

How can it be?

What happened to me?

I'm all at sea

Oh, my good Lord

I'm on board

Wind and wave make a wintry grave

Send in a chopper,

drop me a line

Winch me up, I'll be fine

I don't want to drown,

take pity on me

How did it happen I'm all at sea?

I'm all at sea

How can it be?

What happened to me?

I'm all at sea

Oh, my good Lord

I'm on board

Wind and wave make a wintry grave

Send in a chopper,

drop me a line

Winch me up and I'll be fine

I don't want to drown,

take pity on me

How did it happen

I'm all at sea?
