Killing Eve (2018–…): Season 1, Episode 6 - Take Me to the Hole! - full transcript

Nadia is in a Russian prison, and Villanelle, Eve, and Konstantin need to get to her for different reasons. Eve starts wondering if there's more to working for Carolyn than she anticipated at first.

We know you're on the payroll.
Might as well start talking.

Frank said the organization
calls themselves The Twelve.

One of the girls was called Oksana.

Oksana Astonkova.
Fits the profile perfectly.

I know you're a psychopath.

She was in my house.
She took my phone.

And she'll have the location
of the safe house.

They found a male body near
where you picked up Frank.

There are three of them.
One is unaccounted for.

- Where is Nadia?
- Nadia is still alive.

Russia. You have to go there.



Okay. Your name is Natalia Popova.

- Mm-hm.
- Don't fiddle with that.

You're in because you stole some hats.

Wow!

I am dangerous.

They were controversial hats.

When you're inside, you have
to find a way to see the doctor. Okay?

That's important.

Say it back to me.

Why did you never
try to have sex with me?

Stop doing that!

Is that for me?

This is a very important job for you.

It is... to protect you.



- I know you're nervous.
- I'm not nervous.

I know you're nervous.
But you don't have to be.

You go in, you find the doctor,
kill Nadia and come out.

And what if someone recognizes me?

They won't.

It's been years since you were here.

You will collect me afterwards?

I swear in my heart.

Just a few days... and I pick you up.

I don't need a few days.

I will see you tomorrow.

Enjoying this?

Oh, dear.

I want to see the doctor.

Could it be Oksana?

No, we don't know where Oksana,
um, Villanelle, is.

Her name is Nadia Kadomtseva.

Russian intelligence
picked her up near Bletcham

and took her out of the country.

Wait, hold on.
Are we calling Villanelle, Oksana now?

It's her real name.

So Nadia was the other
assassin with Villanelle?

She's been taken to a prison
outside Moscow.

The same one Villanelle
was in three years ago.

What? Can we... Is there
any chance we can speak to her?

She might know how to get to Villanelle.

If this girl is a lead to anything,

it's The Twelve.

Can we go?

Well, there are some
delicate strings I could pull.

Perhaps they're worth a tug.

All of us?

- I think...
- I'll let...

- I'll let you guys go on.
- Better stay here

in case you need
anything from the base.

Better not after last time.

- I'm better here.
- No, thanks.

Just you and me, then.

To Moscow.

Yo!

Okay.

- Are you smoking?
- Yep.

Are you allowed to in here?

Are you okay?

Hey.

Wasn't he at Bill's funeral?

Listen...

Look, I don't want to be
the boring dick husband type.

I don't want to stand between you

and what you want to do with your life

but it is actually my job

to stand in the way of something

- that puts it in danger.
- No, we're making progress.

Oh, good. Mm.

How many more people have to die

before you complete this level?

- Wow!
- Yeah!

- Wow.
- Why are you so angry?

I'm not angry, I'm scared!

I don't want to wake up
to your face on one of those!

Damn it, I don't want to shout at you.

- No, I think you should.
- What?

- Shout at me. Come on.
- Why, to make you feel better?

No, to make you feel better!

It doesn't make me feel better!

You alive, at home,

without scary ladies
breaking into our house

- makes me feel better!
- She will keep breaking in

and she will keep hurting people

until I catch her, okay?

I have to find her.
She wants me to find her.

Jesus! Do you want me
to hold back your cape a little bit

so you can go down on yourself
a bit more?

What?

You're not saving the world, honey bunch!

You're getting off
on sniffing out a psycho!

Oh...

You don't want that in your life.

Whatever that is.

Trust me.

It's okay. Um...

Let's just get a curry

and forget that happened

and go home and apologize with tea.

I can't.

I have a work thing.

What work...

God, my bones
come alive in this country.

Have you got any lip balm?

Flying dries my skin out something rotten.

Eve.

Oh, uh, sorry, no.

What could The Twelve want?

Well, certainly rolling up to something.

I can feel it in my buttocks.

Me too.

So,

Nadia was at the same prison

as Oksana at the same time.

She got an early release
for good behavior.

What did she go in for?

Uh, drugs and GBH.

Looks like she just got
mixed up with the wrong people.

Have you got any lipstick
or anything moisturizing at all?

Uh, yeah.

- It's a bit...
- Oh, it's fine. Thanks.

How long have you known Vladimir?

Oh, beyond forever.

We've been counterparts for about 10 years.

He'll pounce on us
the moment we arrive.

Why would he give us access to Nadia?

Good old traditional tit for tat.

And when you say "tit"...

It's an expression.

- Yeah, sorry.
- Meaning I'll give him something in return.

- Yes, I know. It was a joke.
- It's a very English expression.

- What's the joke?
- No, I... It doesn't matter.

Hm. Okay.

I just thought it was
a very well-known expression.

Mm, that's rather good.

27 years in British intelligence,

I just can't bring myself
to book a good hotel.

I rather like the grubby ones.

Ah, Vladimir.

The bar across the square in half an hour.

Told you.

Uh, do you think
we've got time to change?

Yeah, but you look great.

No, give me 15 minutes.

We'll get a head start on the cocktails.

Hey, it's Niko.

Leave me a message,
then text me to tell me you have

because I always
forget to listen to them.

Oh, my God. What is this?

Well, they've been
making it for decades.

- Oh...
- Isn't it vicious!

Oh, God, I want 10 of them.

Personal life?

Best not to have one.

Sorry, I should have told you that.

We can't help what we are.

Yes, we can.

I'm not very good
at this sort of thing but...

there are some people

who are just simply going
to do the thing they want to do

because they know
that in the long run

it's better for everyone
that it happens that way.

But that's hard.

For the individuals
and their lives to swallow.

It's hard...
for their families to understand.

But don't for one second forget

that you're trying to make
the world safer for everyone.

Not just...

- Niko?
- Niko.

I mean, they all die in the end anyway.

Turns out I am rather good at that.

Oh, God.

Whoo!

- Vladimir Betkin.
- Eve Polastri.

Pleased to meet you. Okay, okay.

So, am I in trouble

or do you want something
I can never give you?

- Both.
- Oh, good.

I have an agent from the office joining.

- I don't want you...
- Off the leash?

- Wanting for anything.
- Aw.

Well, that's thoughtful of you.

Oh, I wish it could just be me

but America is keeping us on our toes.

You can trust this guy.

Who is it?

Oh, I think you may have heard of him.

Ah...

My good associate Konstantin Vasiliev.

Good evening.

- Konstantin.
- Eve Polastri.

Mm. And look at you.
I wish I'd worn my lipstick too now.

Hello, you old ass.

It was a warm night.

No, it wasn't.

And it wasn't even a pool.

It was...

Where do frogs go?

- A pond?
- Yes, a pond!

It was a pond.

Very good. Very good.

Ohh. Okay...

Here she goes.

Why did you take Nadia Kadomtseva?

Who?

Alright.

We know that this woman has
been working as a secret agent

for Russian intelligence in the UK.

- She is more of a friend.
- Oh.

Well, now she's rather friendly with us.

She told us that she was
helping Frank Haleton with safe passage.

Why did you want to talk to him?

He was relevant for
a special investigation we had here.

We were sad
we didn't get to speak to him.

Well, we did get to speak to him.

He gave us some information
about an organization

we believe is behind
a number of assassinations.

Including your Victor Kedrin.

Is your investigation
looking into that too?

I thought so.

Right. Well, I believe
rather extraordinarily

that we're on the same side here.

Isn't that nice?

Do you have a name
for this organization?

- Yes.
- What is it?

Just set up a meeting
with Nadia tomorrow morning

and we will give you the name

and everything else we got from Frank.

- Just give us Nadia.
- It's not appropriate.

When Konstantin interviews her,

you can see for yourselves
via video link.

Uh, no, I want
to interview the girl with Eve.

And what is so special about Eve?

Another female operative
broke into my house and attacked me.

What?

Really?

What did she want?

Dinner.

I believe Nadia knew
this other operative. Oksana.

- And I know Oksana.
- Their conversations

are something we can share
with you too if you're interested.

I have to go.

One interview.

- But you go with her.
- Oh, thanks, Vlad.

And you can trust that
we will share anything that we find.

Oh, no, trust is not necessary, Carolyn.

We will record you.

I will pick you up tomorrow, then.

These drinks are vicious.

Oh, they hate that
we know more than they do.

They just hate it.

Okay, well,

- good night.
- Good night.

I don't like him.

Vlad's alright.
Just wishes he was higher up the...

No. Konstantin.

- I don't like him.
- Oh.

Alright.

Well, they're
no more slippery than we are.

I suppose.

Are they old friends?

No.

Good night.

I need to see the doctor.
I think you broke my rib.

Good.

Wow, you are such a flirt.

Mm?

You see? Look at that.

You are shameless.

How do I work in there?

I'll cook you dinner.

I can do crazy things with a carrot.

- Can you scrub potatoes?
- Yes.

You can scrub a toilet, then.

You just want to see me bending over.

You know me so well.

I really need to see the doctor!

Do you speak English?

Yes.

It's easier if you swizzle it.

- You've done this before?
- Oh, yes.

Have you been to the doctor here?

I have cancer
and she has only seen me once.

You have to be actually dying to go.

Why are you here?

I stole some hats.

Why are you here?

I'm spontaneously violent.

Mm.

We will be friends.

Okay.

I'll be listening from the other room.

It's better with just the women.

Good.

We don't have much time,
so I'm getting straight to the point.

My name is Carolyn Martens.

This is my colleague Eve Polastri.

We're from the British
Intelligence Service.

We want to ask you some questions

about your recent trip to Bletcham.

We want to know
anything you can tell us about

who you're working for.

You may take some seconds
to think what your terms are.

We don't have long.

And we're not going
to accept anything silly.

- Terms?
- What can we give you?

We can secure
your release from this prison.

We can have you
transported back to the UK,

where you'll be protected.

If you give us information.

- I don't trust you.
- Fair enough.

We don't trust you either.

So how about we strike a deal?

You give us something now,

so that we can verify you.

If the information proves useful,

then in a few days we'll have
you removed from the prison.

And we take you to the embassy.

We'll continue the interview there.

Who do you work for?

Tell us about Oksana.

Were you friends
when you were here together?

Did you help her escape?

It was meant to be me.

- What was?
- He was meant to take me.

She wanted to meet him.

To be sure I was safe.

Because she loved me.

But she...

I don't know what she did to him
but he took her.

If you want to know about Oksana,
you need to find her.

The sound is not working in there.

Please carry on.

It's okay. He's with us.

We need to find who?

Who do we need to find?

Tell us.

Tell us.

Anna.

You said it was a man.

Anna who?

The reason she was here
in the beginning.

Nadia, Anna who?

Tell them.

Do it.

- No.
- Please, you are my friend now.

I will get shit for it.

No, I started it. I provoked you.

Say I told everyone
you were a big tasty lady

but your fanny smells.

There she is.
Come on, you giant ball sack.

May the best man win.

- That was immoral.
- What?

Offering her something
we can't give her.

You don't know
what I'm able to offer her.

I do.

You certainly don't.

It doesn't matter.

He won't do it.

Make it quick.
People are asking why you're here.

Nadia's information.
She won't give it up

without immunity
and safe passage back to the UK.

You are joking.

She has names. I know it.

What is the name of this organization?

The Twelve.

This is good for you, Vlad.
We'd have a lot more

if you let us get her out immediately.
Trust me.

You lost me at "Trust me."

I am sorry.

I cannot sanction it and you know that.

You don't have the authority?

Do not test the limits
of my authority, Carolyn,

and I will not test yours.

I hope you appreciate our help so far.

We will look into everything
from now and update you.

The girl stays in Russia.

What is the phrase in your country?

Don't be a smug asshole.

Yes, that's it.

He'll change his mind.

We just need to find
something for him to nibble on.

Well...

You were certainly committed
to getting yourself in here.

Konstantin said
you prefer English these days.

You look fresh... for a dead woman.

Do you remember
the room they call The Hole?

- Vividly.
- Good.

When the job is complete,

get yourself put into The Hole
for 9pm tomorrow.

If my memory serves me well,

it won't be hard for you.

Konstantin will meet you.

The target is in Wing B.

Cell 21.

I suppose I'm keeping this up my ass. Mm?

I'm not going to help you with that bit.

No.

Say it.

- I don't like Vlad either.
- Oh.

- No, he's a good one.
- Really?

Then how can we convince him?

I mean, he's got to have
something we can tug on,

- so to speak.
- Leave him to me.

Let me tell you about Vlad.

In the '70s,

a journalist called Mary Kenny

was found tangled in the arms
of a former cabinet member

of the Ugandan government.

And Private Eye printed it.

And the phrase "Ugandan discussions"

quickly took on a more illicit meaning.

Let's just say that Vlad and I

had one or two
"Ugandan discussions" ourselves.

I spent the whole time thinking
it was some sort of honey trap.

He spent the whole time
thinking the same.

Which if anything just made
the whole thing more thrilling.

I know.

We're not the most obvious match.

But the man is extraordinarily...

agile.

And now?

Well,

I discovered a little
sort of plutonium plot.

Some years ago.

And the rumor mill thought
he'd given me the information.

He hadn't but I had
to protect my source, so...

I let them believe it.

He's never forgiven me.

Hm. Who was your source?

Konstantin.

No one believed it wasn't Vlad.

Poor agile Vlad.

So you slept with them both.

God, I'm... I'm sorry
I don't like your boyfriends.

I'm sorry you don't like your husband.

- What?
- It's alright.

You can still love him.

For me...

it was always the ones
I liked the least I loved the most.

Maybe it was the fact
that I loved them made me...

dislike them so much.

Oh, dear.
I'm bordering on the profound.

- Bed.
- Bed.

Well done today.
You just about held your nerve.

Hey. Kenny, it's me.

Have we found anything on Anna?

Hey. Yes.

She is the wife of the man
Oksana murdered and, um...

- Castrated.
- Yes. Six years ago.

Okay. Um...

I also need you to look into
any private correspondence

between, uh, Konstantin Vasiliev.

V-A-S-I-L-I-E-V. A member
of Russian intelligence here.

Anything on him at all.

And who?

Your mother.

Sorry.

No. Not now.

No.

- Nyet.
- Uh, yes.

Give it to me.

- Give it to me now.
- No!

She wants to kill me.

Look what you did.

Oh, my God! Look what she did!

Be careful. She has a knife.

Thank you for coming.

Excuse the meeting place.

It's right between my son's school
and the office, so...

It's lovely.

Very... Russian.

Carolyn doesn't
know you're here, does she?

I need Nadia.

I can't give her to you.

This organization murdered my colleague.

Oksana broke into my house.

The home I share with my husband.

She didn't kill me.

She connected with me.

I believe she wants
a way out of this thing.

Same as Nadia.

These are young women
manipulated into this job.

Nadia means nothing to anyone in there.

Out here she could
be the key to The Twelve.

Give her to us

and we will release your
secret agent who helped Frank

and, I swear, if we get a lead,
it is yours to chase.

Yours to own.
You can be the heroes.

I don't give a shit about that.

- I just want the girls.
- Why?

Because one of them is a little prick
and she's keeping me up at night.

I don't care how you sleep.

You're wasting my time and yours.

Goodbye.

I know it wasn't you.
Who told Carolyn about the plutonium.

I know who her source was.

And I can prove it.

He's one of yours.

Kenny, literally any correspondence.

Emails, birthday cards.

And, you know, look everywhere.

Under her bed, her pillow cases.

I-I've got to come up with something.

Need a hand?

I can get us out of here.

I'm good. Thanks.

The British, they are helping me.

Why?

I'm going to give them everything.

You have something to give them?

Konstantin?

He's working with the British.

- He's helping them get me out.
- What?

She's going to help me.

She wants to help you too.
She was asking about you.

Who?

Was it an Asian woman with amazing hair?

What did you tell her?

I could have shot you.

In England.
I could have shot you but I didn't.

What did you tell her?

I told her to speak to Anna.

Okay.

Are you going to kill me?

Mm-hm.

Now?

How?

With this, I guess.

Please, I can get us both out.

I'm already out.

I'm just here for you.

Maybe we should hang you.

But I do have to be quick.

Take me to The Hole!

- Kenny...
- Is she with you?

No. Why? Have you spoken to her?

Kenny... Kenny, what have you found?

Are you alone?

Can you just... go to your room?

What?

I found something from Konstantin.

What?

Some letters.

What sort of letters?

Hey.

Let me out! I did it!

Hey! I have a visitor. Let me out.

Hello!

Okay.

Let me out. Where is he?

Konstantin.

- Konstantin?
- Konstantin. He is coming.

Hey!

Let me out!

Let me out! Let me out!

Hey!

No, let me out!

Let me out!

No!

Let me out!

No! Let me out!

Nadia has been murdered in prison.

- How?
- Just a fight.

Happens all the time in those places.

Really?

A word of advice: Don't fall asleep.

There's no longer anything
to investigate here.

- Wait. What? What?
- Go back to London.

- Are we leaving?
- Of course we're not leaving.

I'm investigating Oksana Astonkova.

She's dead.

I'm going to get into
the prison's security cameras.

I'll scan the footage
for anyone matching Villanelle.

Where are they taking her?
