Bulletproof (2018–…): Season 1, Episode 6 - Episode #1.6 - full transcript
Brace yourself for a car chase, a hostage crisis and a prison break as Pike and Bishop are thrown into a dangerous race for answers.
KAMALI: Ray killed Dan Brown,
Curtis Cox and Michael Sharp.
BISHOP: Sharp was killed
for a reason.
We were taken off the case
for the same reason.
PIKE: It makes no sense. Bruv,
we could have been killed.
BISHOP: So why weren"t we?
PIKE: What did Sharp have to say
that was so important?
What do you think
"access denied" means?
It means we"re no longer
on the case.
This stays low. No one else
knows. But we don"t stop.
Graham Borlock? I"m here to ask
you about Michael Sharp.
I"m retired. Leave me alone.
Bish, fancy a hot date?
- Are we cool?
- Yeah, we"re cool.
I"m taking the job.
I"m out, bro.
- Undo it, man.
- No.
[Horn blaring]
You and Sharp was
in something together
and I"m gonna find out
what you did.
Then I"m coming for you.
No!
Dad, no! Dad!
Armed Police. Get off the bike!
[Engine revs]
[Steady beeping]
[Ventilator hissing]
All right?
- How"s he doing?
- He"s stable.
But blunt-force trauma from
a bullet ruptured his spleen.
Big internal bleed.
He was lucky.
If it wasn"t for
the stab vest...
[Low chatter]
- You all right?
- Yeah. You OK?
Thanks for staying with him.
Anything I can do, Ronnie.
You know that.
Any information on the gunman?
That scum"s gonna be in there
forever.
Well, we"d better be
getting back.
Yeah. Sure.
Sure.
- All right?
- Yeah. I"ll see you at home.
Bish, man... You wanna talk?
Yeah, we can talk about how to
find out who Ray"s working for.
Nah, nah, nah, I"m talking
about me and you - us.
- We can do that another day.
- No, no. Bish...
I"m sorry about the Bakur thing.
Yeah?
I had mad pressure on me
and I made the wrong call.
You know I don"t like it
when we"re not talking, man.
- Yeah, man. Thanks, man.
- Hold on? Thanks?
I just poured out my heart,
you"re walking away
and telling me thanks?
Bruv, you know I don"t have
anyone else except you.
You know that.
I know.
And I... I wanna find out
who Ray"s working for.
- Are you in?
- Bruv, I was never out.
We need to find out
who my dad was calling.
Tanner"s on it. Also,
there"s someone you should meet.
Who?

[Door opens]
You"ve got a fucking nerve.
- Desperate times...
- [Clinking]
Desperate measures.
Why don"t you tell my man
what your name is?
I"m Ronald Pike...
Junior.
Now, you gave me a picture
of Sharp and his dad.
He"s now lying
in a hospital bed,
eating his dinner
through a straw.
Yeah, I saw it on the news.
He"s alive, then?
PIKE: Just.
We can put you in
Witness Protection.
Tell us the story.
How you ended up here
in this fucking shit hole.
Who are you scared of?
Ah...
Him, yeah?
Yeah, we"ve got him in custody.
Never seen him before.
He killed Sharp.
And he tried to kill my dad.
I want to know why.
BISHOP: If we hadn"t caught him,
you may have been next.
So... I"m not gonna
ask you again.
Sharp was part of
a cocaine smuggling ring...
and I ran the unit
that brought them down.
But I could never put him away.
Every time, he walked.
So I dug into him,
like any good copper would.
And the further I dug...
the uglier it got.
Turns out he was untouchable.
When he was police, he was part
of an undercover unit.
With your father.
Doing what?
They were set up to fight the
war against organised criminals
but ended up becoming
organised criminals themselves.
You set out with good
intentions. These things do.
But money corrupts.
Your father never mentioned
Black Heart to you?
That was the name of the unit.
So, apparently,
this little bitch used to be
in the top five
of Europol"s most wanted list.
I guess your rep"s been knocked
since I arrested your
pandemicking arse.
But if Sharp and Director Pike
were contracts...
who hired you?
I won"t lie.
I feel a little giddy...
sitting here with you two.
I"m such a fan.
That"s why I spared you.
I"ll be real with you, man.
We"re busy guys and you're not
gonna get out of this.
So why don"t you just tell us
who you work for?
What about Black Heart?
You heard that name before?
Who hired you?
In another life,
we three could be... partners.
Partners? You wish!
Well, are you gonna tell him,
or shall I?
My old man...
he"s still alive.
[Pike exhales]
What you thinking?
A man like Ray will be pissed
off he didn"t finish the job.
I mean, you look at him -
his hair, his nails,
the way he grooms himself.
He feels pride in
everything he does.
Fuck him. He don"t feel nothing.
Nah, he does.
He does, man.
We all feel something.
Let"s take this to Tanner,
see what she says.
[Gate buzzing]
Got the diagnostics back
on the phone your dad used.
Dead end.
How"s your father doing, Pike?
Since you asked...
BISHOP: Found a retired officer
called Borlock.
He arrested Sharp twice but
could never make charges stick,
so he did a bit more digging
and realised that Sharp
wasn"t just a criminal,
he was a police officer.
He was in an undercover unit
called Black Heart.
And guess who else
was in that unit?
Pike Senior knew Sharp.
- They were working together.
- Hang on.
This Borlock.
I mean, do you trust him?
Cos this is some fucking wild
conspiracy.
Well, explain the photos, then.
An undercover unit
called Black Heart?
Doing... Doing what exactly?
I don"t know. It's clear
they didn"t want it getting out.
They hired Ray
to clean up anyone
and anything to do with it.
Fuck, I thought I"d seen it all.
Well, I hate to be the one
who said I told you so, but...
Why don"t we find out who's been
trying to keep this all quiet?
I know someone who worked with
your old man back in the day.
I"ll see if I can find him.
[Chatter]
Does that bug you?
Huh? That bug you?
[Chuckles]
I need your phone.
What phone?
[Keypad beeping softly]
[Ringing tone]
It"s me.
[Siren wailing in distance]
[Ringing tone]
- Hello.
- Nellios.
Are you erm...
What er... What you...
Er... What you doing?
Er... currently purchasing some
er... very high-end lingerie.
- Really?
- No, you emotional juvenile.
I"m just picking up
bread and milk.
Well, I"m just... calling,
really, to...
to see how you"re doing.
I haven"t seen you in a couple
of days, so I thought I would
call and check in...
see how you are.
Good, yeah. It was good.
Cool.
Cool.
[He laughs] It"s funny
that you mentioned the lingerie.
I know you"re not buying it,
cos you said you"re not,
but if you were...
you know, I just wanted to...
let you know that...
I liked the ones
you had on the other day.
- They were nice.
- Oh, fuck off, Bish!
Too soon for that sort of chat?
Yeah, definitely too soon.
I"ll see you tomorrow, yeah?
OK. See you tomorrow.
I"m in with a chance.
[She sighs]
[She mutters]
[Calling tone]
Just tell him I"ll ring back.
Hi, Charlotte.
Sorry if it"s a bad time.
Arjana, can I call you back?
I"m in the middle of something.
- Unless it"s really important.
- It"s the development.
There"s a few things
I"m not entirely happy about,
and I want to talk them through.
Look, this has got to be
signed off.
All right? So just do
what you need to do and...
I"m sorry,
I"ve really got to go.
Call me when it"s been signed
off. OK? Thanks, bye.
[Video call ends]
Sh...
Oh!
[Whirring]
[Microwave bell pings]
[Whispers] Ow, ow...
Babe, dinner"s ready.
I know it just came
out of a microwave
but I promise it"s organic.
- [Exhales]
- Babe?
Are you OK, baby?
I"ve got to do something
that I don"t want to do.
I don"t know if it's right to do
but I know I have to do it.
- Does that make sense?
- Absolutely not.
I"ve found something out,
and whilst not strictly illegal,
it... stinks and
it"s not right or fair.
Has this got something
to do with Charlotte?
There are people
who will be unhappy with me.
I"ve got to do something
about it.
I"m sure you'll make
the right decision.
You always know right from
wrong. That"s why I love you.
You"ll be fine.
Yeah.
[Monitor beeping steadily]
[Doors being unlocked]
[Engine off]
Where would you know
this guy from?
He was my boss in Paddington.
- He"s a complete arsehole.
- [Central locking beeps]
Do you know
how bodybuilders put on bulk?
Muscular hypertrophy.
You force it,
really get your pump on,
and what that does
is cause microscopic damage
to the muscle,
which then repairs
and gets larger.
Not stronger.
That"s funny.
They always say that.
Until I fucking hit "em."
[Groaning]
- Fucking mug.
- You might look big, but...
you"re as much use
as a glass hammer.
What?
That all you got?
[Panting]
[Groaning]
You"re a small fish in
a fucking big pond, you prick.
- [Alarm bell ringing]
- [He groans]
Hello, Eddie.
Well, Sarah Tanner.
- Looking good.
- These are my colleagues.
This is Aaron Bishop
and Ronnie Pike.
Ronnie Pike?
They"d like to ask
a few questions.
Yeah, I"m sorry to hear
about your dad.
- How is he doing?
- He"ll live.
What do you know
about Black Heart?
Not a lot. Long time ago.
Was my dad part of the unit?
Yeah.
Yeah, he was. They tried
to recruit a few of us.
What about Michael Sharp?
TANNER:
We know he was a part of it.
We just want to know
who"d want to kill him.
- Who else was involved?
- You mean who"d want him dead?
It"s quite a long list.
Who was in the unit?
There were six guys.
There was your dad, Sharp,
there was er... some older bloke,
a Glaswegian...
Jeff Sterling,
a bloke called Dodds.
I don"t know about
the other two.
You absolutely sure about that?
Yeah. I never knew
the other two names.
Where can we find
Sterling and Dodds?
Well, Sterling was killed
in a car crash.
Er... Dodds - cancer.
So, what went wrong?
You know, you gotta understand
it was a war back then.
Something had to be done.
They gave the units free rein.
Unfortunately,
this one got out of control.
Who were the last two members
of Black Heart?
I"ve told you.
I don"t know any more.
Hey, hey, hey! Boys. Boys!
- Start talking.
- What were they doing?
- [He sighs]
- Come on.
Extortion. Dealing.
Fitting people up for crimes
they hadn"t committed.
Ended up with half
the Black Heart squad
involved in a robbery
in Plaistow.
The security officer got killed.
Your dad blew the whistle
and the shit hit the fan.
They pulled the unit
and your dad gave evidence...
and Sharp never came back.
- So was my dad on the take?
- What, Ronnie?
No.
Your dad wasn"t corrupt.
You"ve gotta remember what it
was like then for a black cop.
He had to turn a blind eye
to a lot of stuff.
So, who was?
Rumour was that the corruption
went to the top.
A lot of things were hushed up,
but Sharp was the dirtiest
little secret.
He"d been blackmailing people
for years.
- With what?
- He had enough evidence
to sink a few careers.
Maybe he finally rattled
the wrong cage.
You better not be lying.
[Phone rings]
Hello.
- Two Black Heart members...
- What? Shit.
Ray"s been stabbed. He's being
transferred to a hospital.
There"s no way
a man like Ray gets attacked.
- No way.
- OK.
[Heavy breathing]
- [Siren wailing]
- [Horn blares]
They"re not picking up.
[Engine revving]
[Tyres screeching]
BISHOP: Can you hurry up,
please?
Yo! Service!
[He taps on window]
- I heard you the first time.
- Why didn"t you answer, then?
Don"t worry about him.
I"m Officer Pike.
We"re here to stop Ray Schmitt
from leaving this facility.
- You"re too late.
- If we could just come in.
- I can"t help you.
- Why not?
Because he"s not here.
He"s in there...
on his way to London Central.
That"s where my dad is!
[Tyres squealing]
[Siren wailing]
How badly injured?
Stab wound to the lower abdomen.
Not as bad as I"d have liked.
- Which hospital?
- London Central.
- Where your dad is.
- Where my old man is, yeah.
I"ll send a squad immediately.
We"re not taking any chances.
We need to know
where that ambulance is.
Get us a location
and we"ll intercept it.
Get on it.
Kamali, stay here with me.
Nell, make sure those boys
don"t get into trouble.
Kamali"s on that ambulance
location.
Nell, for Bish.
I"m gonna join you en route.
- Jonsey"s heading to hospital.
- Copy.
- [Horn beeps]
- Fuck you, you piece of shit!
[Horn blares]
We"ve got it.
Ambulance on Kirkstall Road,
five minutes from the hospital.
We"re on it.
[Siren wailing]
Tracing the call from Ray"s
phone now, ma"am.
- Tanner for Bishop.
- Yeah, boss. Speak to me.
Prison guards found a phone in
Ray"s cell with one logged call.
As soon as we know who it was
to, we"ll let you know.
Got it.
[Siren wailing]
Oi! Come on, mate!
[Heavy breathing]
[Whirring]
BISHOP:
What the hell is going on?
This guy ain"t getting away
again!
- Fuck!
- [Tyres screeching]
Oi!
Hurry up!
- [Gunfire continues]
- Too much heat.
We"ll finish the old man later.
Go! Go!
[Gunfire continues]
Go, go, go!
Let"s go! Come on!
You! Fucking get out!
Police! Get out!
We need the car. Go on!
Come on, man!
- Tanner for Bishop.
- Speak to me!
They traced the call
to City Hall.
Get there ASAP
and I"ll send more backup.
All units to City Hall.
- City Hall?
- Fuck.
DRIVER: Here you are, love.
Great. Thank you.
Bishop for Tanner.
We"re at City Hall.
- Where"s this back-up?
- Nell"s on her way.
Hey...
That"s Arjana, man.
What"s she doing here?
Arjana!
Arjana!
Shit.
Nell for Bish.
I"m five minutes away.
Got it.
- You gotta call her, bro.
- I am.
- Hi.
- Hi.
Arjana Pike for
Charlotte Carmel.
Sorry to disturb you.
I have Arjana Pike in reception.
[Phone buzzes]
Ms Carmel"s actually busy
at the moment.
[Phone buzzing]
- It"s gone to message.
- We should"ve taken the lift!
Charlotte, we need to speak.
I don"t mean to be rude, Ms...?
Pike.
Mrs.
Mrs Pike...
but I"m afraid my business
comes first.
Arjana, I really must insist
that you wait outside.
Well, I think
you should take a seat.
CHARLOTTE: Arjana, please leave.
You shouldn"t have come.
Sit down.
This has gone too far.
I didn"t want this.
You lied about the value
of that deposit box.
You should have told me
you were running for Mayor.
That doubles the price.
RAY: You wouldn"t want me
to expose you
as a corrupt ex-cop.
[Ringtone and buzzing]
- Yeah, where are you?
CHARLOTTE: It"s over.
- I "ve paid you what we agreed.
- It"s not enough.
You wouldn"t want your
association with Black Heart
to ruin your election campaign,
now, would you?
It"s Carmel.
- Good morning. How can I help?
- Morning, Rebecca.
Deputy Mayor"s office, please.
No, no, no. Don"t call her.
[Whispers] Bish, Bish.
[Over speaker] Nell for Bish.
I"ve just arrived at City Hall.
[Screaming]
[Arjana gasping fearfully]
Go, go!
This fucker"s dead, man.
Stay there.
[Gunfire and screaming]
Stay down, man.
RAY: Open that door!
Get the card. Get the card!
The key card!
Open it!
Open the door!
[Screaming nearby]
- You need...
- Open it!
You need a code!
You need a code!
Go.
[Rapid gunfire and shouting]
Move it!
Aarghh!
Move it!
[Gunfire]
[He roars]
[Groaning]
[Screaming]
- You all right?
- Yeah.
All right, all right, all right.
It"s all right.
Calm down. Calm down. It"s all
right. It"s all right. Sorry.
Armed police!
[Grunting]
[Groaning]
Nell! Nell!
[Gunshot]
- Nell! No!
- [Gunshots]
Nell. Hey. Hey. You all right?
Speak to me. Nell. Nellios.
Baby, please...
Hey, come on.
Babe, talk to me.
Please.
Oi! Bruv!
Go on! Go and get him!
- [He roars]
- Officer down! City Hall!
Oh, shit!
Nell, Nell, Nell.
Oh, shit. Fuck!
Shit.
Oh, shit.
[Panting]
[Gunshot]
[Ray groans]
Aarghh!
[Ray groaning]
Argh!
[Groaning]
[Groaning continues]
[Ray gasping]
[He groans]
[Shell casings
rattling on floor]
[Sirens approaching in distance]
[Sirens approaching]
[Radio chatter]
VOICEMAIL: You have
one new message. [Beep]
NELL: Bishop.
About what you said.
Well, I think I was wrong
about it being too soon.
So I did find a lingerie shop
and purchased a little um...
Well, whatever I bought,
I thought you might wanna see it.
Maybe even tonight.
I mean, unless you"re busy.
Sitting in that empty flat
of yours.
Anyway... Call me back.
[Beep]
It should be you lying
in there...
bleeding out all over the floor.
Ronnie... you"ve really got to
listen to what I have to say.
Sharp was blackmailing me.
Deposit box?
- Yeah.
- I really don"t give a shit.
- There was enough there to...
- Black Heart?
You and my Dad and a bunch
of corrupt cops, yeah?
Yeah, well...
Sharp had been
blackmailing us for years.
I got a tip-off
where the box was
and decided to end it
once and for all.
He had enough on us to bring
down the whole Met, me included.
There was no choice.
So you killed four people?
What about my dad?
Why did you order Ray
to kill him?
He just... He just couldn"t take
the lying any more.
He was gonna tell you
everything. I couldn"t let...
I didn"t want to.
He left us no choice.
I feel sorry for you.
I really fucking do.
Do you know
what the problem is with you?
You"re a ruthless, corrupt,
self-serving, fucking bitch...
and my dad was always
better than you.
[Birds squawking]
[Car door shuts]
You know I got you, innit?
And I"m never gonna
let you down, you know.
Whatever happens.
We know shit goes down
in this job.
You"re family.
My family.
I miss her too, man.
But we"re here.
We"re alive.
She"d want you to move on.
You good?
Yeah, man. I"m good.
PIKE:
Don"t make me cheer you up.
[Engine revving]
BISHOP: Hey! What you doing?
Pike! Pike!
- Stop! Stop!
- Let"s go. What's wrong?
[Screaming]
[Screaming continues]
Oh! Oh, oh! Stop it!
- Stop being stupid!
- [Chuckling]
What"s wrong with you, man?
I just enjoy driving, bruv.
Pike! Pike, don"t do it!
Don"t you do it!

Curtis Cox and Michael Sharp.
BISHOP: Sharp was killed
for a reason.
We were taken off the case
for the same reason.
PIKE: It makes no sense. Bruv,
we could have been killed.
BISHOP: So why weren"t we?
PIKE: What did Sharp have to say
that was so important?
What do you think
"access denied" means?
It means we"re no longer
on the case.
This stays low. No one else
knows. But we don"t stop.
Graham Borlock? I"m here to ask
you about Michael Sharp.
I"m retired. Leave me alone.
Bish, fancy a hot date?
- Are we cool?
- Yeah, we"re cool.
I"m taking the job.
I"m out, bro.
- Undo it, man.
- No.
[Horn blaring]
You and Sharp was
in something together
and I"m gonna find out
what you did.
Then I"m coming for you.
No!
Dad, no! Dad!
Armed Police. Get off the bike!
[Engine revs]
[Steady beeping]
[Ventilator hissing]
All right?
- How"s he doing?
- He"s stable.
But blunt-force trauma from

Yeah. Sure.
Sure.
- All right?
- Yeah. I"ll see you at home.
Bish, man... You wanna talk?
Yeah, we can talk about how to
find out who Ray"s working for.
Nah, nah, nah, I"m talking
about me and you - us.
- We can do that another day.
- No, no. Bish...
I"m sorry about the Bakur thing.
Yeah?
I had mad pressure on me
and I made the wrong call.
You know I don"t like it
when we"re not talking, man.
- Yeah, man. Thanks, man.
- Hold on? Thanks?
I just poured out my heart,
you"re walking away
and telling me thanks?
Bruv, you know I don"t have
anyone else except you.
You know that.
I know.
And I... I wanna find out
who Ray"s working for.
- Are you in?
- Bruv, I was never out.
We need to find out

Tanner"s on it. Also,
there"s someone you should meet.

What you thinking?
A man like Ray will be pissed
off he didn"t finish the job.
I mean, you look at him -
his hair, his nails,
the way he grooms himself.
He feels pride in
everything he does.
Fuck him. He don"t feel nothing.
Nah, he does.
He does, man.
We all feel something.
Let"s take this to Tanner,
see what she says.
[Gate buzzing]
Got the diagnostics back
on the phone your dad used.
Dead end.
How"s your father doing, Pike?
Since you asked...
BISHOP: Found a retired officer
called Borlock.
He arrested Sharp twice but
could never make charges stick,
so he did a bit more digging
and realised that Sharp
wasn"t just a criminal,
he was a police officer.
He was in an undercover unit
called Black Heart.
And guess who else
was in that unit?
Pike Senior knew Sharp.
- They were working together.
- Hang on.
This Borlock.
I mean, do you trust him?
Cos this is some fucking wild
conspiracy.
Well, explain the photos, then.
An undercover unit
called Black Heart?
Doing... Doing what exactly?
I don"t know. It's clear
they didn"t want it getting out.
They hired Ray
to clean up anyone
and anything to do with it.
Fuck, I thought I"d seen it all.
Well, I hate to be the one
who said I told you so, but...
Why don"t we find out who's been
trying to keep this all quiet?
I know someone who worked with
your old man back in the day.
I"ll see if I can find him.
[Chatter]
Does that bug you?
Huh? That bug you?
[Chuckles]
I need your phone.
What phone?
[Keypad beeping softly]
[Ringing tone]
It"s me.
[Siren wailing in distance]
[Ringing tone]
- Hello.
- Nellios.
Are you erm...
What er... What you...
Er... What you doing?
Er... currently purchasing some
er... very high-end lingerie.
- Really?
- No, you emotional juvenile.
I"m just picking up
bread and milk.
Well, I"m just... calling,
really, to...
to see how you"re doing.
I haven"t seen you in a couple
of days, so I thought I would
call and check in...
see how you are.
Good, yeah. It was good.
Cool.
Cool.
[He laughs] It"s funny
that you mentioned the lingerie.
I know you"re not buying it,
cos you said you"re not,
but if you were...
you know, I just wanted to...
let you know that...
I liked the ones
you had on the other day.
- They were nice.
- Oh, fuck off, Bish!
Too soon for that sort of chat?
Yeah, definitely too soon.
I"ll see you tomorrow, yeah?
OK. See you tomorrow.
I"m in with a chance.
[She sighs]
[She mutters]
[Calling tone]
Just tell him I"ll ring back.
Hi, Charlotte.
Sorry if it"s a bad time.
Arjana, can I call you back?
I"m in the middle of something.
- Unless it"s really important.
- It"s the development.
There"s a few things
I"m not entirely happy about,
and I want to talk them through.
Look, this has got to be
signed off.
All right? So just do
what you need to do and...
I"m sorry,
I"ve really got to go.
Call me when it"s been signed
off. OK? Thanks, bye.
[Video call ends]
Sh...
Oh!
[Whirring]
[Microwave bell pings]
[Whispers] Ow, ow...
Babe, dinner"s ready.
I know it just came
out of a microwave
but I promise it"s organic.
- [Exhales]
- Babe?
Are you OK, baby?
I"ve got to do something
that I don"t want to do.
I don"t know if it's right to do
but I know I have to do it.
- Does that make sense?
- Absolutely not.
I"ve found something out,
and whilst not strictly illegal,
it... stinks and
it"s not right or fair.
Has this got something
to do with Charlotte?
There are people
who will be unhappy with me.
I"ve got to do something
about it.
I"m sure you'll make
the right decision.
You always know right from
wrong. That"s why I love you.
You"ll be fine.
Yeah.
[Monitor beeping steadily]
[Doors being unlocked]
[Engine off]
Where would you know
this guy from?
He was my boss in Paddington.
- He"s a complete arsehole.
- [Central locking beeps]
Do you know
how bodybuilders put on bulk?
Muscular hypertrophy.
You force it,
really get your pump on,
and what that does
is cause microscopic damage
to the muscle,
which then repairs
and gets larger.
Not stronger.
That"s funny.
They always say that.
Until I fucking hit "em."
[Groaning]
- Fucking mug.
- You might look big, but...
you"re as much use
as a glass hammer.
What?
That all you got?
[Panting]
[Groaning]
You"re a small fish in
a fucking big pond, you prick.
- [Alarm bell ringing]
- [He groans]
Hello, Eddie.
Well, Sarah Tanner.
- Looking good.
- These are my colleagues.
This is Aaron Bishop
and Ronnie Pike.
Ronnie Pike?
They"d like to ask
a few questions.
Yeah, I"m sorry to hear
about your dad.
- How is he doing?
- He"ll live.
What do you know
about Black Heart?
Not a lot. Long time ago.
Was my dad part of the unit?
Yeah.
Yeah, he was. They tried
to recruit a few of us.
What about Michael Sharp?
TANNER:
We know he was a part of it.
We just want to know
who"d want to kill him.
- Who else was involved?
- You mean who"d want him dead?
It"s quite a long list.
Who was in the unit?
There were six guys.
There was your dad, Sharp,
there was er... some older bloke,
a Glaswegian...
Jeff Sterling,
a bloke called Dodds.
I don"t know about
the other two.
You absolutely sure about that?
Yeah. I never knew
the other two names.
Where can we find
Sterling and Dodds?
Well, Sterling was killed
in a car crash.
Er... Dodds - cancer.
So, what went wrong?
You know, you gotta understand
it was a war back then.
Something had to be done.
They gave the units free rein.
Unfortunately,
this one got out of control.
Who were the last two members
of Black Heart?
I"ve told you.
I don"t know any more.
Hey, hey, hey! Boys. Boys!
- Start talking.
- What were they doing?
- [He sighs]
- Come on.
Extortion. Dealing.
Fitting people up for crimes
they hadn"t committed.
Ended up with half
the Black Heart squad
involved in a robbery
in Plaistow.
The security officer got killed.
Your dad blew the whistle
and the shit hit the fan.
They pulled the unit
and your dad gave evidence...
and Sharp never came back.
- So was my dad on the take?
- What, Ronnie?
No.
Your dad wasn"t corrupt.
You"ve gotta remember what it
was like then for a black cop.
He had to turn a blind eye
to a lot of stuff.
So, who was?
Rumour was that the corruption
went to the top.
A lot of things were hushed up,
but Sharp was the dirtiest
little secret.
He"d been blackmailing people
for years.
- With what?
- He had enough evidence
to sink a few careers.
Maybe he finally rattled
the wrong cage.
You better not be lying.
[Phone rings]
Hello.
- Two Black Heart members...
- What? Shit.
Ray"s been stabbed. He's being
transferred to a hospital.
There"s no way
a man like Ray gets attacked.
- No way.
- OK.
[Heavy breathing]
- [Siren wailing]
- [Horn blares]
They"re not picking up.
[Engine revving]
[Tyres screeching]
BISHOP: Can you hurry up,
please?
Yo! Service!
[He taps on window]
- I heard you the first time.
- Why didn"t you answer, then?
Don"t worry about him.
I"m Officer Pike.
We"re here to stop Ray Schmitt
from leaving this facility.
- You"re too late.
- If we could just come in.
- I can"t help you.
- Why not?
Because he"s not here.
He"s in there...
on his way to London Central.
That"s where my dad is!
[Tyres squealing]
[Siren wailing]
How badly injured?
Stab wound to the lower abdomen.
Not as bad as I"d have liked.
- Which hospital?
- London Central.
- Where your dad is.
- Where my old man is, yeah.
I"ll send a squad immediately.
We"re not taking any chances.
We need to know
where that ambulance is.
Get us a location
and we"ll intercept it.
Get on it.
Kamali, stay here with me.
Nell, make sure those boys
don"t get into trouble.
Kamali"s on that ambulance
location.
Nell, for Bish.
I"m gonna join you en route.
- Jonsey"s heading to hospital.
- Copy.
- [Horn beeps]
- Fuck you, you piece of shit!
[Horn blares]
We"ve got it.
Ambulance on Kirkstall Road,
five minutes from the hospital.
We"re on it.
[Siren wailing]
Tracing the call from Ray"s
phone now, ma"am.
- Tanner for Bishop.
- Yeah, boss. Speak to me.
Prison guards found a phone in
Ray"s cell with one logged call.
As soon as we know who it was
to, we"ll let you know.
Got it.
[Siren wailing]
Oi! Come on, mate!
[Heavy breathing]
[Whirring]
BISHOP:
What the hell is going on?
This guy ain"t getting away
again!
- Fuck!
- [Tyres screeching]
Oi!
Hurry up!
- [Gunfire continues]
- Too much heat.
We"ll finish the old man later.
Go! Go!
[Gunfire continues]
Go, go, go!
Let"s go! Come on!
You! Fucking get out!
Police! Get out!
We need the car. Go on!
Come on, man!
- Tanner for Bishop.
- Speak to me!
They traced the call
to City Hall.
Get there ASAP
and I"ll send more backup.
All units to City Hall.
- City Hall?
- Fuck.
DRIVER: Here you are, love.
Great. Thank you.
Bishop for Tanner.
We"re at City Hall.
- Where"s this back-up?
- Nell"s on her way.
Hey...
That"s Arjana, man.
What"s she doing here?
Arjana!
Arjana!
Shit.
Nell for Bish.
I"m five minutes away.
Got it.
- You gotta call her, bro.
- I am.
- Hi.
- Hi.
Arjana Pike for
Charlotte Carmel.
Sorry to disturb you.
I have Arjana Pike in reception.
[Phone buzzes]
Ms Carmel"s actually busy
at the moment.
[Phone buzzing]
- It"s gone to message.
- We should"ve taken the lift!
Charlotte, we need to speak.
I don"t mean to be rude, Ms...?
Pike.
Mrs.
Mrs Pike...
but I"m afraid my business
comes first.
Arjana, I really must insist
that you wait outside.
Well, I think
you should take a seat.
CHARLOTTE: Arjana, please leave.
You shouldn"t have come.
Sit down.
This has gone too far.
I didn"t want this.
You lied about the value
of that deposit box.
You should have told me
you were running for Mayor.
That doubles the price.
RAY: You wouldn"t want me
to expose you
as a corrupt ex-cop.
[Ringtone and buzzing]
- Yeah, where are you?
CHARLOTTE: It"s over.
- I "ve paid you what we agreed.
- It"s not enough.
You wouldn"t want your
association with Black Heart
to ruin your election campaign,
now, would you?
It"s Carmel.
- Good morning. How can I help?
- Morning, Rebecca.
Deputy Mayor"s office, please.
No, no, no. Don"t call her.
[Whispers] Bish, Bish.
[Over speaker] Nell for Bish.
I"ve just arrived at City Hall.
[Screaming]
[Arjana gasping fearfully]
Go, go!
This fucker"s dead, man.
Stay there.
[Gunfire and screaming]
Stay down, man.
RAY: Open that door!
Get the card. Get the card!
The key card!
Open it!
Open the door!
[Screaming nearby]
- You need...
- Open it!
You need a code!
You need a code!
Go.
[Rapid gunfire and shouting]
Move it!
Aarghh!
Move it!
[Gunfire]
[He roars]
[Groaning]
[Screaming]
- You all right?
- Yeah.
All right, all right, all right.
It"s all right.
Calm down. Calm down. It"s all
right. It"s all right. Sorry.
Armed police!
[Grunting]
[Groaning]
Nell! Nell!
[Gunshot]
- Nell! No!
- [Gunshots]
Nell. Hey. Hey. You all right?
Speak to me. Nell. Nellios.
Baby, please...
Hey, come on.
Babe, talk to me.
Please.
Oi! Bruv!
Go on! Go and get him!
- [He roars]
- Officer down! City Hall!
Oh, shit!
Nell, Nell, Nell.
Oh, shit. Fuck!
Shit.
Oh, shit.
[Panting]
[Gunshot]
[Ray groans]
Aarghh!
[Ray groaning]
Argh!
[Groaning]
[Groaning continues]
[Ray gasping]
[He groans]
[Shell casings
rattling on floor]
[Sirens approaching in distance]
[Sirens approaching]
[Radio chatter]
VOICEMAIL: You have
one new message. [Beep]
NELL: Bishop.
About what you said.
Well, I think I was wrong
about it being too soon.
So I did find a lingerie shop
and purchased a little um...
Well, whatever I bought,
I thought you might wanna see it.
Maybe even tonight.
I mean, unless you"re busy.
Sitting in that empty flat
of yours.
Anyway... Call me back.
[Beep]
It should be you lying
in there...
bleeding out all over the floor.
Ronnie... you"ve really got to
listen to what I have to say.
Sharp was blackmailing me.
Deposit box?
- Yeah.
- I really don"t give a shit.
- There was enough there to...
- Black Heart?
You and my Dad and a bunch
of corrupt cops, yeah?
Yeah, well...
Sharp had been
blackmailing us for years.
I got a tip-off
where the box was
and decided to end it
once and for all.
He had enough on us to bring
down the whole Met, me included.
There was no choice.
So you killed four people?
What about my dad?
Why did you order Ray
to kill him?
He just... He just couldn"t take
the lying any more.
He was gonna tell you
everything. I couldn"t let...
I didn"t want to.
He left us no choice.
I feel sorry for you.
I really fucking do.
Do you know
what the problem is with you?
You"re a ruthless, corrupt,
self-serving, fucking bitch...
and my dad was always
better than you.
[Birds squawking]
[Car door shuts]
You know I got you, innit?
And I"m never gonna
let you down, you know.
Whatever happens.
We know shit goes down
in this job.
You"re family.
My family.
I miss her too, man.
But we"re here.
We"re alive.
She"d want you to move on.
You good?
Yeah, man. I"m good.
PIKE:
Don"t make me cheer you up.
[Engine revving]
BISHOP: Hey! What you doing?
Pike! Pike!
- Stop! Stop!
- Let"s go. What's wrong?
[Screaming]
[Screaming continues]
Oh! Oh, oh! Stop it!
- Stop being stupid!
- [Chuckling]
What"s wrong with you, man?
I just enjoy driving, bruv.
Pike! Pike, don"t do it!
Don"t you do it!
