Killing Eve (2018–…): Season 1, Episode 4 - Sorry Baby - full transcript

- There's been another kill.
KENNY: His name was Zhang Wu.

He was a Chinese colonel,
visiting Berlin...

Take off your clothes.

Murdered during a very specific...

He liked having his balls clapped.

(GRUNTS)

KENNY: Our suspect a Caucasian
woman in her mid-twenties.

She's investigating your work.

KONSTANTIN: I want you to watch her.

- I need to know who she meets.
- Jin?

I don't know anything
about Colonel Zhang.



Promise you won't be naughty?

I promise I won't be naughty.

Where's my bag?

BILL: I'm on her tail,
we're moving through Cassiopeia.

Call me. I don't wanna lose eyes on her.

Think of this as a
friendly little mole trap.

I thought no one knew
about this department.

Not this department, just you.

CAROLYN: She said her name
was Eve Polastri.

BILL: I'm in a club called Funkeln,

she's here somewhere.

(MUSIC PLAYING)

Please be seated.

Shit.

Here.

(SIGHS) Thank you.

(SNIFFLES)

Oh, please, please.

Oh, God, no.

I worked with Bill for over 10 years.

I am honored to be speaking here today,

on behalf of his colleagues,
who I can say...

really, really liked him.

I think we can all agree
that Bill was a very loud man.

(CHUCKLES) (MOURNERS CHUCKLING)

FRANK: He was a good man...

patient...

hard-working.

(CLEARS THROAT)
A man who had time for everybody.

(SCOFFS) No, he didn't.

FRANK: I think most of that
was really reserved for his family.

In that sense, I would say that Bill was...

truly a traditional man.

(BABY CRYING)

Apart from perhaps his, uh, methods of...

of, uh, team leadership.

Which could really only be described as...

individual, to say the least.

For example,
we know how much Bill liked

- his biscuit Wednesdays.
- Shh.

I'd be lucky if I got
a chocolate finger by lunch...

(BABY CRYING)

But in his heart, see, he was a gentleman.

And, uh, he was deeply loved and admired...

so, let's not forget that.

(MUSIC PLAYING)

Everyone's going to think
I'm the other woman.

Oh, they've always thought that anyway.

Sorry, I'm bad with grief.

I know.

(CHUCKLES AND SNIFFLES)

I'll be fine for like two years

and then I'll have a complete
breakdown about this.

When are his family told the truth?

No one is ever allowed to know the truth.

(SIREN BLARING AT A DISTANCE)

Mugged in a club at 61. What a hero.

Jesus.

So what do you want to do now?

I want to kill her.

With my bare hands.

(TENSE MUSIC PLAYING)

(VIOLIN MUSIC PLAYING)

Villanelle?

(MUSIC PLAYING)

(THUDS)

What are you doing?

Happy birthday! (MUSIC PLAYING)

- It's not my birthday.
- Dance with me!

- Turn the music off.
- Dance with me!

What are you doing?

(VOCALIZING)

(GIGGLES)
Okay, lift me. Lift me.

No, I have a bad shoulder.
(SHOUTS)

No! (GRUNTS)

Turn this music off.

(MUSIC TURNS OFF)

I was just trying to do
something nice for your birthday.

- It's not my birthday.
- So, tell me when it is!

- We need to talk.
- Oh.

Okay.

Can we go somewhere with no balloons?

- Mmm.
- Good.

You're being very nice.

I've been excited to see you.

Really?

Or is it because you know I'm angry?

Very angry.

Whoa! Thank you.

These are very cool.

One more! Oh.

(SPEAKING RUSSIAN)

Konstantin.

Villanelle.

Are you sure?
So, it's not Eve Polastri?

Do you think I don't know everything?

As for a partner...

He was following me.

He was off limits.

So I don't think I can trust you anymore.

If you can't play alone,

you have to play with
your little brothers and sisters.

KONSTANTIN: Your next job.

This will tell you where to meet them.

You won't work alone again.

VILLANELLE: Open it.

Please.

(INDISTINCT ANNOUNCEMENT ON PA)

(TRAIN BEEPING RAPIDLY)

DIEGO: Welcome to England.

I'm so excited to see the
Siberian Chiffchaff.

DIEGO: It's unlikely.

They haven't been seen since 2009.

Mmm. Do I get one of these...

things?

You're a little late.

Well, I had to make a delivery.

- When is the kill?
- Tomorrow.

You're excited?

Where are we going to sleep tonight?

There's a cushion.

We take turns.

(INDISTINCT ANNOUNCEMENT ON PA)

I'm gonna do a thing behind the bush.

(TRAIN PASSING BY)

Oh. (CHUCKLES)

(TRAIN HONKING)

Your hair's grown.

(BOTH GRUNTING)

(BONE CRACKS) (SCREAMS)

(GRUNTING)

(SPEAKING RUSSIAN)

(DIEGO EXCLAIMS)

No fighting in the car.

She's a friend.

Are you?

(SPITS)

(ENGINE STALLING)

(DIEGO GRUMBLING)

(SOFT MUSIC PLAYING)

You want some stew?

No.

Wine or...

No. No, thank you. I'm okay.

(MUSIC PLAYING)

What?

What?

I'm sorry to bring this up now.

But you're not being honest with me.

About Bill.

Oh, Jesus Christ, really?

He was a friend, okay?

Please don't make this all about your...

How did he die?

I want you out of this.

If you value your life. Our life, you will.

I know you think you're honoring Bill,

but you looked me
in the eye and you told me

there was absolutely no risk in...

- Please don't tell me what I think.
- I just care about you...

I know you care about me,

we all know you care about me.

Sometimes I think it's all you have!

(MUSIC PLAYING)

EVE: Oh, God, I'm...

You don't have to apologize.

Oh, your suitcase
came back from Berlin.

It was on the doorstep.

I'll leave the stew out.

(SOFT MUSIC PLAYING ON STEREO)

So, what's the history?

Hmm?

Well, you keep it out of my car.

DIEGO: Only happy things in the car.

Okay?

Baby...

pass me a thing.

(MUSIC PLAYING)

Who is the target?

We don't know yet.

You don't know who our target is?

DIEGO: We will be told on arrival.

We just know we are here
to kill a member

of the British intelligence services.

(MUSIC PLAYING)

(SIGHS DEEPLY)

(SNIFFLES)

(SIGHS)

(OMINOUS MUSIC PLAYING)

(MUSIC PLAYING)

(GASPING)

- Eve, can we just...
- Get out!

Get out!

(MUSIC PLAYING)

There's a perfume called La Villanelle

and about five grand's worth of clothes.

What type of clothes?

Expensive clothes.

Amazing clothes. All my size.

- Jesus Christ.
- No. Don't open it.

We don't want any further contamination.

It's not good that she
knows where you live.

Yeah, well,

don't write your address on your suitcase

that gets stolen by a psychopath.

I want you to get the whole thing

fast-tracked with forensics.

Get any DNA checked and cross-referenced
with the other crime scenes.

EVE: I also want you
to check any stores in Berlin

who stock these clothes.
They have German tags.

Then contact the stores

and see if you can
find any security footage.

So, we are going to keep going?

Yes. We are going to keep going.

Okay, good, because I found a...

Don't you think that maybe
you should take some time to...

I mean, maybe you shouldn't
go to the office yet.

We're going.

Eve, I need to tell you...

Some of this stuff is niche.

There won't be that many
stockists in Berlin.

And let's check in with
the German authorities, too.

Will you do the door?

Who came in and out of the country
on the days either side of the kill?

And look up the perfume La Villanelle.

It was in the case, too.

That's what we are going
to call this asshole from now on.

- Villanelle.
- Okay.

I also, really need to show you
something that I found...

(BUZZER RINGING)

Okay. Show me.

I need, um, 30 seconds. Max 45.

Elena?

Yeah. I'm okay.
Just needed a minute.

So, this is beyond weird.
Jin Yeong, the Chinese agent.

The documents he gave you in Berlin

included statements from accounts
in the Cayman Islands.

Jin thinks they, whoever they are,

used these accounts to pay off
the insiders betraying his department.

- Okay.
- But then I'm poking around

on these transactions
and I notice this account number.

KENNY: British.

Receiving three payments a year
for the exact same amount.

Follow the money,
and we find it lands here.

KENNY: St Henry's,

a Prep School in Sussex.

School fees. That's as far as I got.

(BUZZER RINGING)

- Um...
- Take a minute.

- Okay.
- Look at the sausages.

Okay. So...

Wow, that's a lot of sausages.

So, I went to this party,
this must be about a year ago.

A big work birthday party.

Big marquees' thing, free champagne, etc.

- Lovely.
- Yup.

So everybody got drunk,
but Frank got really drunk.

You know his wife died.

Yes, this was while she was ill,

and I mean, he was like,
"Wow, Frank is drunk".

I had to put him in a cab at like, 8:00.

These ones have got chili in them.

Oh, delicious.

So, while we were
waiting for this cab outside,

he was very emotional,

telling me the pressure he was under
to send his kids to private school.

He said there was no feasible way
he could find the money.

And the big finish?

Kenny traced the lead Jin gave us

to payments made to a school
called St. Henry's.

Both of Frank's kids go there.

It's disappointing when the mole

is the one who looks most like a rodent.

Where is he now?

Kenny's on it.

But we will find him
and bring the bastard in.

We're not after blood, Eve.
We're after information.

In the grand scheme of things,
Frank is middle management.

There's a good chance he'll lead us
to someone far more important.

CAROLYN: We keep this in-house.

You've done brilliantly.

Bill would be proud.

- Thank you.
- Madam.

Stay nourished.

Get some chops.

I'll be in touch.

Have you checked the sights?

I shot a Dutch politician
with a Colt last Friday,

and he's, uh, definitely dead.

So, yes.

Thank you, sweetie.

Okay.

Everyone had a pee?

- There won't be time to later.
- I can hold it.

Okay.

But you'll regret it.

I'll be a minute.

Don't be freaky.

I thought I'd never see you again.

(GRUNTS)

- You hoped.
- I won't fight you.

Why?

You scared?

(GRUNTS)

No.

I just don't want you to get hurt.

- Okay?
- Oh, my God.

What is going on, guys?

She had a wasp on her nose.

Nadia?

It's fine. Let's go. (SNIFFS)

(GUN COCKS)

They told me one of you didn't matter.

Don't make me guess. Okay?

EVE: Okay, so where's our rat?

- He's in Buckinghamshire.
- What's there?

I don't know. Just a house.
I'm working on it.

KENNY: In the meantime though,
Frank's contacts and call records,

we know who he's calling,
when and for how long.

- Okay, what town's he in?
- It's a village.

About as English a village as you'll find.

It's called Bletcham.

We should go.

Both of you?
I mean, are you trained for that?

It's a surveillance job
in the Home Counties, Kenny.

We just need to be in the area.

Okay.

- We're going to Bletcham.
- Right.

(BIRDS CHIRPING)

(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYING)

(CELL PHONE MESSAGE CHIMES)

Mmm, darlings.

DIEGO: We've got a name.

Frank Haleton. Hmm?

MI5.

(SIGHS)
How are we gonna do this?

Bang, in the head...
..or whatever.

Okay.

You two go to the front,
and I'll cover the back.

I love you, baby.

(MUSIC PLAYING)

He's nice.

(GRUNTS)

- I'm glad you got out.
- You took my place.

We are both here now.

(WHISTLES)

(MUSIC PLAYING)

(GUN COCKS)

(KNOCKING)

(WITH BRITISH ACCENT)
Good afternoon.

Sorry to ambush you like this. Is Frank in?

No, he's gone out.

- Oh.
- I'm his mother.

Are you... (SIGHS) Who are you?

My name is Natalie.

This is Fanny.

We work with Frank.

A few of us are in the area.

He gave us this address.
I'm sorry, I thought this was his house.

We just wanted to... Drop up.

Drop in.

And say "Hi."

Of course.

I have some fruitcake in the freezer.

Oh, lovely.

Did she say anything about me?

Who?

Carolyn.

God, you have such a crush.

ELENA: And you don't? She's a legend.

In the '80s, she cultivated

one of the most powerful Russian assets
in British intelligence history.

She exposed an ex-KGB officer

planning to sell weapons-grade plutonium
on the international black market.

Apparently, she's saved the world
eight more times since then.

You want to save the world?

- Well, yeah, of course.
- Hmm.

You're quite a romantic
underneath it all, huh?

Talking about romance.

Kenny's about to explode.
(ELENA GROANS)

Poor guy.

I know it's gonna happen, too.

Don't be looking at me like that.

What? (CHUCKLES) I'm serious.

I've never had it hot before!

- It microwaves very well.
- Mmm.

Frank adores it.

Any idea when he'll be back?

I'll just give him a call.

No.

No. No. We can wait.

We don't want to pressure him.

No, that's fine!

He's probably just
getting cheese or something.

(DIALING PHONE)

PAULA: Yes.

Darling, you have lovely visitors.

A Natalie and a Fanny.

A Fanny.

From your office. Yes.

Oh, dear. That's a shame.

Shall I tell them to come
back another time? All right.

See you when I see you.

Love you, bye!

Oh, dear. He's been called back to London.

Something unexpected has come up.

He sends his best wishes and apologies.

Must have been in a hurry...

- Yes.
- ..to forget his car.

(CAR DOOR OPENS)

She says he's gone back to London.

- What does that mean?
- It means we wait.

DIEGO: I knew that.

Nadia, you watch the back.

(CELL PHONE RINGING)
Kenny, what have you got?

We've had some activity.
But it's strange.

Someone just made a call
to Frank's mobile from a landline.

- Okay...
- I've located him,

but the mobile's in the same house
as the landline that called him.

What does that mean?

Either this equipment is dodgy,
which it really isn't,

or it's just weird.

(DOG BARKING)

(CAR APPROACHING)

NADIA: (SHOUTING) Hey!

(POP MUSIC PLAYING)

VILLANELLE: Come on!

Come on! (GROANS)

(MUSIC PLAYING)

(GRUNTS)

There.

He's moving out of Bletcham.

What? We just got here.

Jesus. He's bombing it!

Why is he running?
Does he know we're here?

(MUSIC PLAYING)

Bye, pumpkin.

(DIEGO YELLS)

(GUN FIRING)

(WHIMPERS)

(TIRES SCREECHING)

DIEGO: That's a good pumpkin.

- That's a good pumpkin.
- Shh.

(YELLING INDISTINCTLY)

(BRAKES SCREECHING)

Come on, he's getting away! Come on!

(STATIC)

You guys there?

(LINE DISCONNECTS)

Pull over.

EVE: Get Kenny back
and I'll try and call Frank.

(MUSIC PLAYING)

(LINE RINGING)

- FRANK: Eve?
- Yes. Frank.

(FRANK HYPERVENTILATING)

Oh, my God, Eve.

Listen. Frank, it's okay.

We just wanna talk to you,
you don't need to run from us.

(WHISPERING) They're chasing me.

No, we're just...

Wait, who is?

Help me!

Who are you running from, Frank?

I should kill myself.

Uh, no! Frank, just breathe, okay?

Just calm down and listen to me.

(PANTING HEAVILY)

(MUSIC PLAYING)

- This way.
- Hey, hey, hey.

I give the orders. Okay?

This way.

(TENSE MUSIC PLAYING)

You okay, pumpkin?

(EXHALES)

(MUSIC PLAYING)

(GUNS FIRE)

(GUNFIRE CONTINUES)

Oh, my God!

(SIGHS)
That's very subtle. Yeah.

(SHOUTING)
Will you have some respect, huh?

(WHIMPERING)

EVE: (ON PHONE) Frank? Are you there?

(SLAMS)

Speak to me. Frank, say something.

Where are you?

They've got guns. I'm hiding.

Frank, listen.
We are tracking you, okay?

We can find you.
Just, uh, stay quiet.

(MUSIC PLAYING)

Uh, yeah.

Now what?

Say something stupid and I will shoot you.

Like you shot Frank bang in the head?

NADIA: Oksana!

She is the ex?

Now I have all the reasons
to blow her to pieces.

Why is she even here?

I was sent to get Nadia.

For what?

You gave me my way out of there.

Now I'm giving you your way out...

of that.

Hey, hey, hey.

You're not a pumpkin.

- Shut your mouth!
- You are beautiful.

Let me.

I've been wanting
to do this for a long time.

(GUN FIRES) (GROANS)

(NADIA SIGHS)

NADIA: I am not a pumpkin.

- Paris?
- Yes, Paris.

Florence, Vienna,
wherever you want to go.

First class.

Everything you deserve.

Check the boot.

I'll start the car.

FRANK: They're going.

Frank, I need you to move north.

What? Where is north?

Oh. Okay, sorry. I... (MOUTHING)

Oh, yes.

Uh, Frank, can you see, like a phone mast?

It looks like, uh, it has
a plastic bag on it.

Yes.

I can see that. I can get there.

Okay. Just stay low and run.

- (WHISPERS) "Stay low?"
- I don't know.

(MUSIC PLAYING)

(GASPS SOFTLY)

FRANK: Excellent. Shit.

They've come back.

Frank, we are on our way to you now.

You have got to run.

Frank?

Eve, I can't. I can't.

Do you prefer your other options?

Anything?

Just clothes and this kite.

Put it in the back.

We can use it on the weekend.

(SPEAKING RUSSIAN)

Put it in the back, let's get out of here.

(CAR BOOT OPENS)

(CAR BOOT CLOSES)

(NADIA SCREAMING)

(SCREAMING STOPS)

(ENGINE HUMMING)

Whoops.

(ENGINE STOPS)

(ENGINE STALLING)

(GASPS)

(PANTING HEAVILY)

VILLANELLE: Seriously?

(TENSE MUSIC PLAYING)

(MUSIC PLAYING)

(GUNSHOTS) (WHIMPERS)

(GUN CLICKING)

(MUSIC PLAYING)

Guys, the house in Bletcham
that called Frank.

It's already on our system.

KENNY: Belongs to a woman
called Veronica Hill.

She's suspected Russian intelligence.

He's up to his neck in this stuff.

GPS has him 500 yards away.

EVE: We have to get to him now, Kenny!

Stop at the next gate.

He's gonna have to get to you on foot.

Uh, Frank? Frank!

We're at the top of the field.

I don't think you can see us, but, um...

Um, just make a run for it

and trust that we're here, okay?

(PANTING)

Frank, are you running or are you crying?

Running and crying.

(GUNSHOT) (EXCLAIMS)

We're here, just run for it!

Oh, God! Frank! Frank!

Shit! Frank!

(GRUNTING)

Oh, God! Oh, God!

- They're coming!
- Oh, my God!

Elena, get in the back!

EVE: Oh, God. Frank!

(GRUNTING)

- Oh, God. Oh, God.
EVE: Get in the back!

Oh, thank you! Oh, thank you.

ELENA: Eve, go!

FRANK: Go!

FRANK: Eve, please!
- Oh, my God.

No, no. Drive.

(GUNSHOT)

No!

Who is she?

Her DNA is all over it

clear match with samples
from the other kills.

Either she's deeply arrogant,
or she knows she's protected.

- He said we were pumpkins.
- So?

VILLANELLE: I shot him.

Oh.

Hello Frank.

CAROLYN: Just tell me who these people are.

There is a sequence,
a pattern to these kills.

To what end?

VILLANELLE: You should never
tell a psychopath they are a psychopath.

It upsets them.
