Devils (2020–…): Season 1, Episode 6 - Episode #1.6 - full transcript
My mind races at night.
Looking for a way out of the darkness.
I think of all the paths I could have
taken
The sickness I could have seen but
didn't
The roads before me are infinite
But no matter what I choose
it leads to the same place.
Good morning.
Good morning.
You don't know that a kitchen is for
cooking, right?
Ah, yeah, I read that somewhere.
Where is the coffee? Over here.
If I were you, I wouldn't risk it.
It's OK. Okay.
You were right about Dominic. He had one
of his lawyers get Carrie out of prison.
How do you know? He admitted it.
He said he was trying to protect me.
You believe him?
Do you think he murdered Edward?
You need to watch your back.
They could be following you,
they might have followed you here.
They didn't. You sure about that?
So what you're gonna do?
The papers with Ed's notes.
I need them.
The police impounded them.
I know, but it's the only way I will
find out why he was killed.
I have to go. OK.
At one a.m. this morning, the City
of London police were contacted by UBS.
Kveku Adoboli was
arrested early this morning.
The last thing the City needed was
allegations of a rogue trader.
He'd rather stay in his old school.
His old school is a dangerous.
His new one is bloody expensive.
There's is no fun having money if
we don?t spend it, Toy?
Well, you have been
spending a lot of it lately.
What could be more important than
taking care of my little brother?
I love you, Oliver Harris. Yeah?
I'm fond of you too.
Wait a minute, I'll top up my stuff.
Good morning sir.
You allright?
Yeah.
Let's go.
Hey! Look here! Here! Just one photo!
Something wrong with this.
Please come with me.
Is there some kind of a problem?
Just come with me.
So what's this about?
Wait here with the others.
You guys see the news this morning?
Someone guy from UBS got busted
for hiding risky trades.
Yes, we saw. We did the same damn thing!
Just relax.
We'll find out sooner or later.
Well yeah yeah, relax.
The most they'll do is send you packing.
I'm the one who placed that Raspberry.
They could arrest me!
I'd be on the news!
You are not important enough to make the
news.
It's Massimo they'll hang in public,
the rest of us will swing behind him.
Anyone care to guess why we are here?
Beacuse we messed with the VAR.
I knew you were bright, Oliver.
How the hell did they find out?
It was a trap.
And you fell for it.
Who set the trap?
You four, come with me.
What the hell are you doing there?
Chris will be stepping up to serve as my
deputy CEO.
Congratulations.
Thank you, Eleanor.
Paul McGuinnan will be our new head of
trading.
Massimo is head of trading!
Paul doesn?t even work at this bank!
Paul was bee reinstated.
Massimo was the head of trading.
Effiective immediately he will be back
on the floor.
Any questions?
Yeah, uhm....
What the fuck?
What Kalim means is...
Paul is a good trader, but he is nowhere
near as good as Massimo.
No one bloody is.
I think you heard Mr. Morgan.
So we're not being sacked?
Not at the moment, but the day is young,
Mr. Harris
Will you leave us?
Why not just sack me?
So you can cash in somewhere else?
You think I won?t just quit?
If you do, I will prosecute.
I've done nothing.
Your team has.
Why are you doing this?
Why am I doing this?
You leave me no choice!
You pulled one stunt after another.
Did you really expect me to turn...
I?m not your boy.
You go out there and make me some money.
In time, you'll get your job back.
Nick? Hi Sofia.
Similar crimes could happen again,
?ause they're under pressure to make
profit...
How bad is the situation
on European markets?
Perhaps we are witnessing
the beginning of a new crisis?
Hi Sol, where is he?
The future of the next generation.
That UBS story is all over the place!
You've been a busy bee.
So have you, it seems.
Turn that off.
One has to admire your dedication.
Shut up, OK!
Don't turn your fucking computer on
when you're doing something like that!
You of all people ought to know that!
So what now?
Well, it seems our Italian friend
finally trusts you.
I think he does. Then I'd say
it's time to reel him in.
Yes, but I think we need to
give him what he needs first.
I... I hope you know I did not want
to take your place.
It's the only way I could get my job
back. I needed a job after you fired me.
Well, good luck, Paul.
Look, I know I'm not half the trader you
are.
Everyone knows that.
You say something. No,
he meeds some time.
Oliver!
What?
I just eh... scared shitless they gonna
turn me in.
You should have thought of that before.
Yeah, I know, I just been under a lot of
pressure, my little brother changes
school and...
I don't give a fuck about your brother.
I just get back to work.
Yes, you do that.
Which is one of the charges, that turned
Duval into a fugitive, right?
Insider trading.
The charge of revealing
state secrets is far more serious.
Which is why the US, The UK,
Germany and Switzerland -
have all issued warrants for his arrest.
My favorite Italian.
How are you, Massimo?
Fine. I have another job for you.
You know me, I like to be kept busy.
I want you to tell me everything you can
about a Subterrania activist called
Sofia Flores.
Sophia Flores. Allright, I'm on it.
Well, you don't look happy to see me.
I wasn't expecting you, that?s all.
I'll be quick then.
Did Dominic send you?
I heard about what happened and I'm
sorry.
But no, I wanted to see you.
Why? Because this war between you needs
to end.
Be fore you do something you regret.
You're being manipulated.
Just like Dominic manipulates everyone.
I know you think he made Carrie leave
you.
But it was me who told her to.
I did it for you.
I don't want to hear this. And do you
know why your wife listened to me?
Because she loved you. I, I...
She left because you she knew it was
better for you to remain with Dominic.
What the fuck are you talking about?
And why the fuck are you telling me this
now?
So you can move forward.
Just like I had to.
Your wife is dead.
My son is dead.
We must go on.
Together.
You'd better go.
Go!
Cool track! Really shakes?
Who's that? Is your brother there?
My boss could get you
some Ed Stewart's files.
What does he want in return?
You'd become his eyes and ears inside
NYL.
You think I'm now willing to spy
for an anarchist group?
Dominic demoted you this morning.
Word travels fast.
He must know you are a risk to him.
He could have sacked you.
You need those files.
It's a deal.
I'll tell him. On one condition:
I need to meet him face to face.
What for?
I am going to trust this man with my
life.
So I just want to know
who I'm dealing with.
You asking a lot.
So is he.
Quiet! Quiet! Back in the queue please.
It's now and do what I tell you
or your file will never be opened.
First, you need to take a number for the
queue,
the machine is over there.
Second, When your number is called,
go the agent and explain your case.
Is that clear? Yes! Clear.
I should have thought your visa was in
order, Mr. Ruggero.
I need to speak to you.
I've been demoted and reassigned ecause
of you.
I didn?t mean for that to happen, I'm
sorry.
Just say what you wanna say, and get
out.
You were right.
Ed Stuart didn?t kill himself.
Thank you! But I knew that allready.
But it wasn'tt me.
I need your help to find out who.
Do I look like someone that can help?
The papers with Ed's notes.
I need to see them.
Ed Stuart's handwriting?
Massimo Ruggero. Massimo Ruggero.
Massimo Ruggero. Massimo Ruggero.
You've got balls, I've gotta give you
that
Get the papers, and I'll give you
something in exchange. Or rather,
someone.
Not interested.
Daniel Duval.
Nab him and you've got your job back.
Maybe even a promotion.
How do you have access to Daniel Duval?
I am sleeping with his associate.
So now you stab her in the back?
Daniel Duval in exchange for the file.
Good morning. I spoke to Duval.
He'll meet you. I have to call you
tonight with the time and place.
Works for me. I guess we're
officialy on the same side now.
I guess we are.
He messed with the wrong people
and got himself into some serious shit.
The US is heading for
a prolonged recession.
Some experts suggest the government...
Where have you been all morning?
Paul put me in the freezer. Freezer?
Yeah, high frequency trading room.
These new servers are so powerful,
they have to keep them at two degrees.
And he gave me Southern Europe.
Stagnant nd depressed.
He hasn?t give me anything.
You think it's a bad sign?
Undoubtedly. You're screwed! That's
bad...
Mr. Harris? You are wanted in Mr.
Morgan's office. Immediately.
Mr. Morgan? What for?
Mr. Morgan does not
like to wait. Come on then.
In theory, a single currency favors
investment,
low interest rates, better
competition...
Just like a dollar does for the
States. The euro is not the dollar.
The Eurozone has neither a fiscal
nor a political unity.
California has the seventh
largest economy in the world.
If they went bankrupt
the US government
would come in and bail it out.
Spain, Italy, Portugal,
Greece, Ireland -
all have smaller economies than
California, but they're in the shitter.
And who's gonna come in and bail them
out?
But the euro is popular.
People think it levels the
playing field with the Americans.
The Euro and the
European Union are dogma.
It can be challenged,
perception can be changed.
Question is - how?
Well?
Do you realize the combined salaries
of everybody in this room?
I'm just looking for one goddamn answer
to explain to people
why these countries
are worthless pieces of crap.
Mr. Harris?
Now is your chance to explain
why Massimo thinks you're such a hot
shot.
Please.
Hey.
Can? Yes, go ahead.
PIGS. What?
Portugal, Ireland,
Greece, Spain.
PIGS.
All these countries with
disgusting amounts of debt,
with sloppy public accunts. Pigs.
Well, for a start, you left out out
Italy.
PIIGS with a double "I".
I dont 'get it.
Calling them pigs doesn't make them
pigs.
For the public opinion it just might.
Oliver, you are a a bit of a hot shot,
are you.
OK, can you get Paul an internal report
on Pigs.
By the end of the day, will you? Yes,
sure.
Good. Let's go! Let's get back to work
please.
Allright. Very good.
Hey. How soon can you meet?
My place, half an hour. I'll see you
then.
Here you go boys.
Hey Sam. Vic! What are you doing?
I just got a little tired of
shouting at people. Yeah.
Thought I'd come back here
and say hi to some friendly faces.
Yeah, well it's always good to see your
pretty face but I am finishing my shift.
Oh, give me a moment befor you go,
will you Sam?
What's up?
I just need a quick peek at the
evidence in the Stuart case.
I'm sorry, you know the rules.
And you?re not working that case any
more.
It's just a piece of paper I forgot
to photocopy before I left.
Copying evidence -
that's a little bit irregular.
I guess you've forgotten about that
little irregularity of yours I
overlooked last year.
Just a few grams were missing and just
that once.
I'm clean now, Vic. I swear.
Going straight.
If I'd cited the rules back then,
you would have lost your job.
Seems your little friend Miss Flores is
being monitored by our friends at
Interpol.
Mainly due to involvement with
Subterrania.
And? Got a drink?
Oh yes. Shot of have whiskey?
Better make it two. You're gonna need
one as well when you heard this bird's
story.
It's a thick file.
Where do you want me to begin?
How about the beginning.
Fair enough.
Both her parents were killed in a car
accident in Buenos Aires when she was
seven years old.
After that, she was cared for
by her brother, Ramiro.
He had a small leather factory.
Cheers.
Until two thousand and one...
Return my money! Ramiro went bankrupt.
No!
Leaving Sofia to a life on the street.
Fuck.
Told you it was a sad story.
How did she get by?
Same way a lot of girls do when they are
desperate. And so she met Daniel Duval.
Duval was an economist at the time,
in Buenos Aires for a conference.
His marriage had just fallen apart
And he'd lost his tenure at an Ivy
League college.
How old was she?
Sixteen, maybe seventeen.
He took her to bed?
No idea.
Only Duval started Subterrania whilst
paying for Sofia to go to university,
where she graduated with top marks.
Since then they travel the
world targeting bankers
and hedge fund managers.
They got their sights on you.
Possibly. Can I take this with me?
Sure. OK.
Come in.
This is the report that
Mr. Morgan asked for.
Oh... pigs.
Did you make it look good and sloppy?
Very sloppy Sir, very dirty.
Right! Go on, let's get a drink.
What, now? It's only five o'clock.
Should have just about enough time.
Time for what?
I've told my clients you're
shorting the Spanish banks.
And? They're holding firm.
We'll see.
Once the banks start falling your
smarter clients will jump in and then...
the others will too.
So we keep shorting?
Yes. Where is Kalim?
In the freezer.
Get him up here for me as soon as you
can. Please.
Allright. Thank you.
Massimo... Hey.
Thank god you called me. I was turning
into an ice cube, it's freezing in there
I need you to pull some old files.
I'm not sure that we have it digitized.
Allright, which ones?
On the Banco de Rosa failure in
Argentina in 2001.
Yes! I remember what on the back of my
hand. Oh you do?
Small bank, five billion dollars in
assets,
one of three that came down like
dominoes on March the 7th, 2001.
Pretty sure it was a Wednesday.
How do you remember it so clearly?
Massimo, you really don't remember, do
you?
What?
We bought all the non-performing
assets of Banco de Rosa.
It was your idea.
We bought all the non-performing assets
of Mercosur block banks,
and made a killing the killing doing it
too
We destroyed all borrowers.
Shit happens man. But it was beautiful
We made five hundred million dollars!
Rivers of champagne flowing at Turnmills
The trading floor came out, dancing.
And you got that bonus from Dominic -
that brand new Porsche. Remember that
one?
Yes.
I don?t know about you two, but I could
use a drink. I certainly could.
Massimo, what do you say?
I think we owe you one.
I've got some work to do here.
Let's go. Come on.
Emma. She must be a bait.
Back together now.
How long I have no fucking idea.
Have you got a ... partner?
Yeah, I've got a girl. Latoya.
Latoya is a lovely name.
Be nice to her, yeah, don't bullshit.
You know, you were lucky with this
today.
You're far from home free, OK?
Yeah, sure. I'm not under any illusions.
Right, I'm going to go drain the
lizzard. See you in a bit.
Don?t hang out with this guy, or you'll
get a criminal record. Mr. Potato-head.
Hey. Round nosing the new boss, are we?
If it weren't for Massimo, you'd still
be taking other peoples exams at uni.
If it weren't for you two,
Massimo would still have a job.
Well, if it weren't for... Just, ignore.
Detective?
We have a time and a place.
You remember my former partner, DS
Winks?
Mr. Ruggero. You have the file?
You'll get it when we have Duval.
We appreciate your public service, Mr.
Ruggero.
Helping to bring two fugitives to
justice.
Two? Yes.
If your girlfriend was helping him to
hide, she's an accessory.
They'll both be behind bars
for a very long time.
Feels good, doesn't it?
Being on the right side of the law, for
once.
Did you really get him that
case file he asked for?
I got it.
How?
Don't ask.
If he gets us Duval,
you really gonna give it to him?
We'll see.
And if he doesn't get us Duval?
We are already in the shit.
If he doesn't we just stay in the shit.
The address has changed.
Bankside Pier.
What the hell is he doing?!
Speeding! Go! Faster!
Get out of the fucking way!
Don't lose him, Henry!
Come on, come on, come on!
He is there, there!
I cannot keep up with this car.
Come on, come on, come on!
He's waiting for us on board. Hey.
What? You gotta get out of here.
What?
What are you talking about?
The police are coming.
They were ging to give me the CDO
in exchange for Duval.
I'm so sorry now, you have to go.
I'm sorry, now go!
Don't you fucking touch me!
What are you doing?
And where is Duval?
He didn't show up.
What do you mean, he didn't show up?
I'm sorry.
But I need those documents. Really.
Well maybe you should have kept your
part of the bargain.
Come on Henry, back to the shit.
Fuck.
You really need to invest
in a better alarm system.
I could call the police.
You already did that this morning,
when you paid a visit to Detective
Bale at the immigration center.
You weren?t even on that boat, right?
You know, we are a lot alike, you and I.
We're nothing alike.
Oh, I used to be an economist,
consultant to multinational
corporations.
Oh really? Our thing was,
that we'd identify some underdeveloped
country that had something of value,
like gold or rubber even.
Then I would persuade that country
to take up huge development loans
through the World Bank.
Only the money never reached the country
itself.
Instead it went to my real clients -
contractors.
So basically, we took their money
and they were left with massive debts.
And after that, I mean ...pfff -
taking their resources was like
taking candy from children.
I was a hitman. An economic hitman.
I killed people
without ever touching a gun.
I don't kill people.
Ah, but you do, Massimo.
You do. People like Sofia's brother.
You see, you're nothing but a pawn
in a rigged game,
where the poor get poorer
and the rich get superrich.
This bubble is going to explode.
Sooner than you think.
And when it does, you want to
be on the right side.
How many men have you had
Sofia fuck for the cause?
How many? What do you mean
how many men?
As far as I know,
she slept with you
because she wanted to.
But maybe that's just too
human for you to understand.
You know how to get in touch.
This is the largest
unauthorized trading loss in British
history.
And another scoop for "Subterrania" -
the controversial underground movement
founded by Daniel Duval.
According to the group's founder,
Subterrania's goal is
bring to light unethical actions by
governments, banks and corporations...
It's a confidential report,
an internal study from NYL,
one of the city's largest banks.
So what are these so-called P-I-I-G-S?
Pigs.
Largely they're the countries of
southern Europe:
Portugal, Ireland,
Greece, Spain. Plus Italy.
Insiders in the financial sector
consider them pigs to the slaughter.
That's is my report. Why are they
thought of as pigs to the slaughter?
Because these countries really have poor
fundamentals.
And they're sucking
the economies of Northern Europe dry.
Please be wasting your time!
You'll be doing things you don?t like
doing,
in order to continue doing
things you don?t like doing
You should be watching the news,
Margaret.
Oh? Something good I hope?
Someone leaked our confidential report
to the press.
Everybode is talking about the pigs.
Well done! But I have some news of my
own,
and it's not so good. Tell me.
"Standard & Poor?s" is going to
downgrade US debt.
They taking away Treasury's tripl-A
They wouldn't dare!
We have to move forward sooner than we
planned,
and this administration
will not help us.
Our friend The Reintaler
Bank is not going to be happy.
We've wasted enough time cuddling that
cry-baby
I?ll take care of it.
Thank you Dom, I know you would.
I didn?t think I'd see you again.
Why didn't you do it?
Why didn?t you just...
why didn?t you just go through with it?
Because I think
I still need you to work for me.
Well I just did, took care of your mess.
This is Edward Stuart's? Uhuh.
How did you get it? I broke
into Detective Bale?s flat.
Then she'll know that it's missing.
Shit happens.
Yes.
Let's work on this
They claim that the cause
of the crisis is terrible pigs!
Well, you know,
PIIGS? What other PIIGS?
Financial markets are shaking
from a group of European countries.
Called PIIGS. Or, otherwise, "Pigs."
The idea of ??Eurobonds is supported
representatives of the
so-called PIIGS countries,
Let me remind you, these are Portugal,
Italy, Greece and Spain.
"Pigs."
"Pigs."
Portugal, Ireland, Italy,
Greece, Spain. We are all pigs.
Looking for a way out of the darkness.
I think of all the paths I could have
taken
The sickness I could have seen but
didn't
The roads before me are infinite
But no matter what I choose
it leads to the same place.
Good morning.
Good morning.
You don't know that a kitchen is for
cooking, right?
Ah, yeah, I read that somewhere.
Where is the coffee? Over here.
If I were you, I wouldn't risk it.
It's OK. Okay.
You were right about Dominic. He had one
of his lawyers get Carrie out of prison.
How do you know? He admitted it.
He said he was trying to protect me.
You believe him?
Do you think he murdered Edward?
You need to watch your back.
They could be following you,
they might have followed you here.
They didn't. You sure about that?
So what you're gonna do?
The papers with Ed's notes.
I need them.
The police impounded them.
I know, but it's the only way I will
find out why he was killed.
I have to go. OK.

But no, I wanted to see you.
Why? Because this war between you needs
to end.
Be fore you do something you regret.
You're being manipulated.
Just like Dominic manipulates everyone.
I know you think he made Carrie leave
you.
But it was me who told her to.
I did it for you.
I don't want to hear this. And do you
know why your wife listened to me?
Because she loved you. I, I...
She left because you she knew it was
better for you to remain with Dominic.
What the fuck are you talking about?
And why the fuck are you telling me this
now?
So you can move forward.
Just like I had to.
Your wife is dead.
My son is dead.
We must go on.
Together.
You'd better go.
Go!
Cool track! Really shakes?
Who's that? Is your brother there?
My boss could get you
some Ed Stewart's files.
What does he want in return?
You'd become his eyes and ears inside
NYL.
You think I'm now willing to spy
for an anarchist group?
Dominic demoted you this morning.
Word travels fast.
He must know you are a risk to him.
He could have sacked you.
You need those files.
It's a deal.
I'll tell him. On one condition:
I need to meet him face to face.
What for?
I am going to trust this man with my
life.
So I just want to know
who I'm dealing with.
You asking a lot.
So is he.
Quiet! Quiet! Back in the queue please.
It's now and do what I tell you
or your file will never be opened.
First, you need to take a number for the
queue,
the machine is over there.
Second, When your number is called,
go the agent and explain your case.
Is that clear? Yes! Clear.
I should have thought your visa was in
order, Mr. Ruggero.
I need to speak to you.
I've been demoted and reassigned ecause
of you.
I didn?t mean for that to happen, I'm
sorry.
Just say what you wanna say, and get
out.
You were right.
Ed Stuart didn?t kill himself.
Thank you! But I knew that allready.
But it wasn'tt me.
I need your help to find out who.
Do I look like someone that can help?
The papers with Ed's notes.
I need to see them.
Ed Stuart's handwriting?
Massimo Ruggero. Massimo Ruggero.
Massimo Ruggero. Massimo Ruggero.
You've got balls, I've gotta give you
that
Get the papers, and I'll give you
something in exchange. Or rather,
someone.
Not interested.
Daniel Duval.
Nab him and you've got your job back.
Maybe even a promotion.
How do you have access to Daniel Duval?
I am sleeping with his associate.
So now you stab her in the back?
Daniel Duval in exchange for the file.
Good morning. I spoke to Duval.
He'll meet you. I have to call you
tonight with the time and place.
Works for me. I guess we're
officialy on the same side now.
I guess we are.
He messed with the wrong people
and got himself into some serious shit.
The US is heading for
a prolonged recession.
Some experts suggest the government...
Where have you been all morning?
Paul put me in the freezer. Freezer?
Yeah, high frequency trading room.
These new servers are so powerful,
they have to keep them at two degrees.
And he gave me Southern Europe.
Stagnant nd depressed.
He hasn?t give me anything.
You think it's a bad sign?
Undoubtedly. You're screwed! That's
bad...
Mr. Harris? You are wanted in Mr.
Morgan's office. Immediately.
Mr. Morgan? What for?
Mr. Morgan does not
like to wait. Come on then.
In theory, a single currency favors
investment,
low interest rates, better
competition...
Just like a dollar does for the
States. The euro is not the dollar.
The Eurozone has neither a fiscal
nor a political unity.
California has the seventh
largest economy in the world.
If they went bankrupt
the US government
would come in and bail it out.
Spain, Italy, Portugal,
Greece, Ireland -
all have smaller economies than
California, but they're in the shitter.
And who's gonna come in and bail them
out?
But the euro is popular.
People think it levels the
playing field with the Americans.
The Euro and the
European Union are dogma.
It can be challenged,
perception can be changed.
Question is - how?
Well?
Do you realize the combined salaries
of everybody in this room?
I'm just looking for one goddamn answer
to explain to people
why these countries
are worthless pieces of crap.
Mr. Harris?
Now is your chance to explain
why Massimo thinks you're such a hot
shot.
Please.
Hey.
Can? Yes, go ahead.
PIGS. What?
Portugal, Ireland,
Greece, Spain.
PIGS.
All these countries with
disgusting amounts of debt,
with sloppy public accunts. Pigs.
Well, for a start, you left out out
Italy.
PIIGS with a double "I".
I dont 'get it.
Calling them pigs doesn't make them
pigs.
For the public opinion it just might.
Oliver, you are a a bit of a hot shot,
are you.
OK, can you get Paul an internal report
on Pigs.
By the end of the day, will you? Yes,
sure.
Good. Let's go! Let's get back to work
please.
Allright. Very good.
Hey. How soon can you meet?
My place, half an hour. I'll see you
then.
Here you go boys.
Hey Sam. Vic! What are you doing?
I just got a little tired of
shouting at people. Yeah.
Thought I'd come back here
and say hi to some friendly faces.
Yeah, well it's always good to see your
pretty face but I am finishing my shift.
Oh, give me a moment befor you go,
will you Sam?
What's up?
I just need a quick peek at the
evidence in the Stuart case.
I'm sorry, you know the rules.
And you?re not working that case any
more.
It's just a piece of paper I forgot
to photocopy before I left.
Copying evidence -
that's a little bit irregular.
I guess you've forgotten about that
little irregularity of yours I
overlooked last year.
Just a few grams were missing and just
that once.
I'm clean now, Vic. I swear.
Going straight.
If I'd cited the rules back then,
you would have lost your job.
Seems your little friend Miss Flores is
being monitored by our friends at
Interpol.
Mainly due to involvement with
Subterrania.
And? Got a drink?
Oh yes. Shot of have whiskey?
Better make it two. You're gonna need
one as well when you heard this bird's
story.
It's a thick file.
Where do you want me to begin?
How about the beginning.
Fair enough.
Both her parents were killed in a car
accident in Buenos Aires when she was
seven years old.
After that, she was cared for
by her brother, Ramiro.
He had a small leather factory.
Cheers.
Until two thousand and one...
Return my money! Ramiro went bankrupt.
No!
Leaving Sofia to a life on the street.
Fuck.
Told you it was a sad story.
How did she get by?
Same way a lot of girls do when they are
desperate. And so she met Daniel Duval.
Duval was an economist at the time,
in Buenos Aires for a conference.
His marriage had just fallen apart
And he'd lost his tenure at an Ivy
League college.
How old was she?
Sixteen, maybe seventeen.
He took her to bed?
No idea.
Only Duval started Subterrania whilst
paying for Sofia to go to university,
where she graduated with top marks.
Since then they travel the
world targeting bankers
and hedge fund managers.
They got their sights on you.
Possibly. Can I take this with me?
Sure. OK.
Come in.
This is the report that
Mr. Morgan asked for.
Oh... pigs.
Did you make it look good and sloppy?
Very sloppy Sir, very dirty.
Right! Go on, let's get a drink.
What, now? It's only five o'clock.
Should have just about enough time.
Time for what?
I've told my clients you're
shorting the Spanish banks.
And? They're holding firm.
We'll see.
Once the banks start falling your
smarter clients will jump in and then...
the others will too.
So we keep shorting?
Yes. Where is Kalim?
In the freezer.
Get him up here for me as soon as you
can. Please.
Allright. Thank you.
Massimo... Hey.
Thank god you called me. I was turning
into an ice cube, it's freezing in there
I need you to pull some old files.
I'm not sure that we have it digitized.
Allright, which ones?
On the Banco de Rosa failure in
Argentina in 2001.
Yes! I remember what on the back of my
hand. Oh you do?
Small bank, five billion dollars in
assets,
one of three that came down like
dominoes on March the 7th, 2001.
Pretty sure it was a Wednesday.
How do you remember it so clearly?
Massimo, you really don't remember, do
you?
What?
We bought all the non-performing
assets of Banco de Rosa.
It was your idea.
We bought all the non-performing assets
of Mercosur block banks,
and made a killing the killing doing it
too
We destroyed all borrowers.
Shit happens man. But it was beautiful
We made five hundred million dollars!
Rivers of champagne flowing at Turnmills
The trading floor came out, dancing.
And you got that bonus from Dominic -
that brand new Porsche. Remember that
one?
Yes.
I don?t know about you two, but I could
use a drink. I certainly could.
Massimo, what do you say?
I think we owe you one.
I've got some work to do here.
Let's go. Come on.
Emma. She must be a bait.
Back together now.
How long I have no fucking idea.
Have you got a ... partner?
Yeah, I've got a girl. Latoya.
Latoya is a lovely name.
Be nice to her, yeah, don't bullshit.
You know, you were lucky with this
today.
You're far from home free, OK?
Yeah, sure. I'm not under any illusions.
Right, I'm going to go drain the
lizzard. See you in a bit.
Don?t hang out with this guy, or you'll
get a criminal record. Mr. Potato-head.
Hey. Round nosing the new boss, are we?
If it weren't for Massimo, you'd still
be taking other peoples exams at uni.
If it weren't for you two,
Massimo would still have a job.
Well, if it weren't for... Just, ignore.
Detective?
We have a time and a place.
You remember my former partner, DS
Winks?
Mr. Ruggero. You have the file?
You'll get it when we have Duval.
We appreciate your public service, Mr.
Ruggero.
Helping to bring two fugitives to
justice.
Two? Yes.
If your girlfriend was helping him to
hide, she's an accessory.
They'll both be behind bars
for a very long time.
Feels good, doesn't it?
Being on the right side of the law, for
once.
Did you really get him that
case file he asked for?
I got it.
How?
Don't ask.
If he gets us Duval,
you really gonna give it to him?
We'll see.
And if he doesn't get us Duval?
We are already in the shit.
If he doesn't we just stay in the shit.
The address has changed.
Bankside Pier.
What the hell is he doing?!
Speeding! Go! Faster!
Get out of the fucking way!
Don't lose him, Henry!
Come on, come on, come on!
He is there, there!
I cannot keep up with this car.
Come on, come on, come on!
He's waiting for us on board. Hey.
What? You gotta get out of here.
What?
What are you talking about?
The police are coming.
They were ging to give me the CDO
in exchange for Duval.
I'm so sorry now, you have to go.
I'm sorry, now go!
Don't you fucking touch me!
What are you doing?
And where is Duval?
He didn't show up.
What do you mean, he didn't show up?
I'm sorry.
But I need those documents. Really.
Well maybe you should have kept your
part of the bargain.
Come on Henry, back to the shit.
Fuck.
You really need to invest
in a better alarm system.
I could call the police.
You already did that this morning,
when you paid a visit to Detective
Bale at the immigration center.
You weren?t even on that boat, right?
You know, we are a lot alike, you and I.
We're nothing alike.
Oh, I used to be an economist,
consultant to multinational
corporations.
Oh really? Our thing was,
that we'd identify some underdeveloped
country that had something of value,
like gold or rubber even.
Then I would persuade that country
to take up huge development loans
through the World Bank.
Only the money never reached the country
itself.
Instead it went to my real clients -
contractors.
So basically, we took their money
and they were left with massive debts.
And after that, I mean ...pfff -
taking their resources was like
taking candy from children.
I was a hitman. An economic hitman.
I killed people
without ever touching a gun.
I don't kill people.
Ah, but you do, Massimo.
You do. People like Sofia's brother.
You see, you're nothing but a pawn
in a rigged game,
where the poor get poorer
and the rich get superrich.
This bubble is going to explode.
Sooner than you think.
And when it does, you want to
be on the right side.
How many men have you had
Sofia fuck for the cause?
How many? What do you mean
how many men?
As far as I know,
she slept with you
because she wanted to.
But maybe that's just too
human for you to understand.
You know how to get in touch.
This is the largest
unauthorized trading loss in British
history.
And another scoop for "Subterrania" -
the controversial underground movement
founded by Daniel Duval.
According to the group's founder,
Subterrania's goal is
bring to light unethical actions by
governments, banks and corporations...
It's a confidential report,
an internal study from NYL,
one of the city's largest banks.
So what are these so-called P-I-I-G-S?
Pigs.
Largely they're the countries of
southern Europe:
Portugal, Ireland,
Greece, Spain. Plus Italy.
Insiders in the financial sector
consider them pigs to the slaughter.
That's is my report. Why are they
thought of as pigs to the slaughter?
Because these countries really have poor
fundamentals.
And they're sucking
the economies of Northern Europe dry.
Please be wasting your time!
You'll be doing things you don?t like
doing,
in order to continue doing
things you don?t like doing
You should be watching the news,
Margaret.
Oh? Something good I hope?
Someone leaked our confidential report
to the press.
Everybode is talking about the pigs.
Well done! But I have some news of my
own,
and it's not so good. Tell me.
"Standard & Poor?s" is going to
downgrade US debt.
They taking away Treasury's tripl-A
They wouldn't dare!
We have to move forward sooner than we
planned,
and this administration
will not help us.
Our friend The Reintaler
Bank is not going to be happy.
We've wasted enough time cuddling that
cry-baby
I?ll take care of it.
Thank you Dom, I know you would.
I didn?t think I'd see you again.
Why didn't you do it?
Why didn?t you just...
why didn?t you just go through with it?
Because I think
I still need you to work for me.
Well I just did, took care of your mess.
This is Edward Stuart's? Uhuh.
How did you get it? I broke
into Detective Bale?s flat.
Then she'll know that it's missing.
Shit happens.
Yes.
Let's work on this
They claim that the cause
of the crisis is terrible pigs!
Well, you know,
PIIGS? What other PIIGS?
Financial markets are shaking
from a group of European countries.
Called PIIGS. Or, otherwise, "Pigs."
The idea of ??Eurobonds is supported
representatives of the
so-called PIIGS countries,
Let me remind you, these are Portugal,
Italy, Greece and Spain.
"Pigs."
"Pigs."
Portugal, Ireland, Italy,
Greece, Spain. We are all pigs.
