Utopia (2013–2014): Season 2, Episode 5 - Episode #2.5 - full transcript

With the revelation that her father is alive, Jessica and Milner set off to find him. Arby takes Grant and Anton to a place from his past, a remote mountainside where he came as a child.

- What do you mean, I can't have cheese?
- I can put cheese on it.

I'm just saying it doesn't come with...
But that's fine. I can...

Mate, I just want burger
with cheese and bacon, that's all.

- So, you want bacon as well?
- What, I can't fucking have bacon now?

No, you can.
I just need to...

It doesn't come with cheese and bacon,
so I just need to add it.

Well, add it, then.
Stop backchatting me.

I'm not. Honestly.

- I'm not.
- Look at you.

Grown man flipping burgers.

Is this what you wanted do with your life?
Fucking... Terrence.



Is it, Terrence?

Is it?

Janus wasn't in Utopia.
It was in me.

My own dad did that to me.

Nice jacket. How come a knob-face like you
has suddenly grown a...

Grant, for fuck's sake!
We're doing something. Just piss off!

When Ian discovers
that we've killed Roy...

Killed? No, wait.
Just hang on a minute.

Michael... I'm going to help you
get your family back.

I'm going to call either Paul
or one of the other two...

and in about 90 days that person
will release the most deadly flu...

- this world has ever seen.
- I chose.

You mean, a race? You chose a race?
And which race did you choose?

Dovadă. Dovadă.



- What does that mean?
- Dovadă means "proof" '.

It means "proof" '.

You're coming with us.

Grant!

Ian?

Ian!

Ian, please!
Ian, what are you doing?

I'm getting Grant back.

What? Are you trying to find a weapon?
Is that it?

Right. Well, that's a curtain pole, Ian.
You've got a curtain pole.

- On, so you just wanna leave him?
- Pietre is a killing machine.

If he wanted to kill Grant,
Grant would be dead. We all would.

We won't find him.

So, let's just calm down
and work out what to do next.

- Oh, that... that's not very good.
- We're not getting fucking married.

No, no, she was smiling.

Don't smile.

You just have to ask, Jessica.

- Who does he send that to?
- Leah Gorsand, Rochane Foundation.

- Are you really Mr. Rabbit, then?
- Surprising, isn't it?

I see the Americans
are entering the Yellow Sea.

- That's a worrying escalation.
- So, that story about you in China...

escaping, killing all those people,
is that true, then?

Are you asking me,
"am I a killer", Michael?

Yes, I am.

I didn't want to be.
It's just the way it turned out.

- Like Churchill or Lincoln.
- Or Hitler.

Always surprises me
how quickly these things escalate.

One minute, it's a disagreement
about wheat and land rights...

and the next
it's a nuclear standoff.

Jen and Alice are dead,
by the way.

You're killing them.

Right now. This minute.

Or you could untie me.

Don't send that from here, okay?

Tell them to back off,
or she dies...

and if I even smell them
near my dad or Ian, she's dead.

I don't want any attention
drawn to them.

None.

Too late.

- The body was discovered in a warehouse.
- Whoops.

Police say the victim
was tied to a chair...

and killed with a single gunshot
to the head.

Becky?

Do you think he had family?

We need to get rid of him.
Our DNA's all over this place.

What, like... dispose?

So, we get rid of bodies now?
We're like killers?

I'll do it. You... find out
how to get rid of the DNA.

Yeah.

Oh, my God.

Ian.

I'm so sorry.

Whoa. Whoa, whoa.
What do I do about Jen and Alice?

I mean, I have to get them out now.
You... you said you'd help me.

I can't stay. I planted a phone on Ian.
The battery will run out.

My dad's with him.
I have to, Michael.

Look, find out where they have them.
Take a mobile, the GPS.

They search me. They fucking search me.
How do I get a phone in there?

Shove it up your arse.

No, I'm serious.
You have to shove it up your arse.

It's the only way.

Don't use a big one.

So...

- th-they're saying I... I killed him?
- Ian, I'm so sorry.

No, no, no,
it's... it's all right. Um...

I mean,
it's... it's fine, it's just...

So... so what?
He's... he's dead?

Right... right.

Yeah, um... so, what...
what were we doing? We're...

And... and Marius,
I... I need to get rid of...

- Ian.
- No, no, no. No.

- What does my mum think?
- She... she thinks...

- you did it.
- What?

Should... should I tell her
I... I didn't, then?

You can't go near her.
That's what they want you to do.

So, I was doing...
I was doing something and...

Oh, yeah. Bl-bleach. Bleach.
Um... I was... I was bleaching...

So, what's the plan, then?

I don't have a plan.

I know this area.

It's remote.

There's an old base.
I trained there as a boy.

Sometimes they would
take me out here on the hills.

Holidays, I suppose.

So, what, we're just gonna wander round
like fucking twats?

If we meet anyone,
behave yourself.

I'm your dad.
He's your grandfather.

You're my dad?
All right, Dad?

- Were you going to kill Ian, then?
- You shouldn't talk about killing.

Why not?
I'm not like other people now.

I'm different, like you.

- You are not like me.
- Yes, I am. Why am I not?

Come on. We're leaving.

Why am I not like you?

Oi, dickhead!
Why am I not like you?

There are no clues
as to where it is.

Curtains closed, so you can't see out.
There is a child's drawing.

It's called "Ice".

Ice? Have you shown this
to anyone else?

I didn't think panic was good.

Why me? Why show me?

She believes in you, dear.

Janus is at a critical stage.
Commands need to be given.

By Mr. Rabbit.

But no-one knows
she is Mr. Rabbit.

I mean, she must lead at arm's length,
like, what? Dead drops and codes and...

Yes, there is a complicated and
highly secretive command structure.

And do you know it?

I know... some of it.

Tell no-one.

And Mr. Rabbit?

For the moment,
we are Mr. Rabbit.

Becky?

I ask question, yes?

Is there something here?

Is mark?

Tell you what.

Is okay.

I can keep my chips...

- in there.
- Oh, God, please...

Eat my fucking chip!

- Are you all right?
- I... I don't know where Donaldson is.

The Thoraxin's experimental.
He said it's like a secret lab in China.

I tried to find it once.
No good.

And without it?

Look.

There... there's gonna come
a time...

I mean, if...
if I want a choice...

then I'm gonna need to do it
when I'm well enough.

Will you help me...

please?

Come on, let's go and find out
what side Dugdale's on.

It's fucking nice, all this.

Mountains and shit.

Yeah... I like this.

What is it?

I remember a stone hut
somewhere near.

I thought it had grass on the roof,
but they said "moss".

It was nice.

The kind of place
a father takes a son.

Is that where we're going?
You and me?

Acesta este mirt de mlastina.

Bun pentru a tine
insectele la distanta.

Si puteti sa-I mananci.

Come on, you dumb bastard.

Let's go find
this stupid fucking hut.

There's no ice. Sun.

Fields. A horse.
There's no ice in this.

Something has come up.

What? What's come up?

Newsprint.

How very traditional.

I mean, they know. So, we have to pay
and this isn't a large amount.

20 million in cash is large.

Yes, but we can do it.
I mean Janus.

We've all worked so hard...

They don't say what denomination.
Dollars. Sterling.

- Euros.
- Sterling. It's sterling.

I mean, we're in England.
Of course he wants sterling.

Really?

Our highest denomination
is the £50 note.

One million of which
would weigh 24.2kg.

20 million would weigh
nearly half a tonne.

Now compare that to the 500 euro note,
which would be just 45 kilos.

He could fit it into a suitcase.

If he's a he.

Look, where is she? I'm a minister.
Why aren't I talking to her?

We'll pay. You're right.
Janus is more important than...

everything.

Did you want something else?

Er... no.

- I didn't think he was this stupid.
- Oh, he's not stupid. He's just...

He's just desperate.

Ice.

Oh, ya bastard!

I'm not with them.
They have Jen and Alice.

I've had no choice.
Oh! Just...

Look... look around.
They're not here!

- Ian.
- They've got Jen and Alice.

Ian, shall I take that?

Look, I think he might be telling
the truth.

Shall... shall I take
that knife, then?

Okay.
I think we all need to talk.

So, all this is sort of...

racist?

Well, does anybody else know?

No, just us.
We think if we take them that...

I mean, they have a virus, Russian flu.
They're gonna...

No, no, no, they faked that.

No, they're not faking it this time.
It's real.

That's how they get everyone
to take the vaccine.

And...

this is proof?

We think it shows what Carvel did to it,
like the racist bit.

We reckon if... if we take them that,
then they might, like... stop.

- Or they might kill us.
- So, Milner...

Milner's Mr. Rabbit?

She's responsible
for... for all this?

She played us.

Jessica has her now.

She's gone to find you, in fact.
They think you have Carvel.

She hid a phone in your jacket.

Shit. Grant's wearing my jacket.

Well, hang on.
When did she hide a phone in your jacket?

Oh, I...

I-I came here. I saw her.

- Right. You never said.
- Well, yeah, I didn't get time.

- I beg your fucking pardon?
- Sorry, is this really the time?

No, shut up, you!
Why didn't you say?

No, this... this isn't me.
I swear to Christ.

Go! Go! Go!

- Come on!
- Oh, my God!

Armed police!
Get on the floor!

Down on the floor!

Get down! Do not move!

All right?

- He gave that to you.
- So what? It's fucking stupid.

You shouldn't swear so much.
It's not good on a child.

I'm not a child, you cock.

Oh, shit.
We gotta kill 'em now.

Just behave and don't swear.

Hello there.

Go fuck yourself, fuck-chops.

Fucking tell me what to do.

Go on, do it.
You lost your bottle. They saw us.

You're wandering around to find
some fucking hut to show your daddy.

- He can't even remember you.
- You should be quiet now.

Why?
What you gonna do? Shoot me?

I'm already dead, me.
Anyway, you can't kill your partner.

- You are not my partner.
- Yes, I am.

- I'm like you now.
- You are not like me.

Stop saying that I am.

Give me the gun. Give me the gun
and I'll go back and show you.

Pietre?

Pietre?

There'll be no reception soon.
How will you find them?

I'll figure it out.

I imagine you will.

The way you escaped was...
was incredible, Jessica.

There's still time
to come with us.

You don't seem to get
the dynamic here.

You're tied,
I've a knife and a gun...

- and I'm going to kill you.
- So, why am I still alive?

Are you scared
he won't talk to you?

Has it been on your mind?
The adjustment?

Do you keep wondering
what it was he put inside you?

Don't lose control of yourself, Jessica,
when you see your father.

Your feelings...

What if I lose control now?

You think I'm scared
of being hurt?

Why do you think we did this?

Philip was a genius
but we sacrificed everything for this.

Including me?

Your generation's
so self-absorbed.

There'll be no statue
to Philip Carvel.

No-one'll know his name.

But we'll all survive
because of him.

You won't.

You won't survive.

And I'm supposed to believe this?
Where's Milner?

Wilson, you need to take them seriously.
What they're saying is...

- Where is Milner?
- What, you gonna torture us, Wilson?

Yeah.

I might. I might do, Becky.

Russian flu is real.

It's some psychopathic
weaponised virus from the '60s...

and they're going to release it,
did you know that?

- What? You did? You knew?
- We have a vaccine.

But some will die, won't they?

How many, Wilson?
How many people will die?

I tell you what.
Let's just get solar panels.

Recycle our paper.
Let's just go to bottle banks.

- You sound like Letts.
- Letts was right!

Your problem is that you want
to think that the world is nice.

That we can all just get along,
co-operate!

When the fuck
have we ever done that?

Wilson, Janus is not going
to do what you think.

It's a form of eugenics.
The numbers...

I'm here for Milner.

I know she was with Jessica,
I know she was here...

and I know you know how to find her,
so I'll ask you again.

- Where...
- Is Mr. Rabbit.

Where is Mr. Rabbit?

Leave us a moment.

Why not let me
have a go, Wilson?

I can be very effective.

- You know that more than anyone.
- I said "leave us".

Aye-aye, skipper.

Jesus Christ, why did you say that?
If he heard you...

My brother
was murdered yesterday.

I'm not grieving, I'm not trying to get
in touch with my mum to see how she is.

I'm not sitting and thinking
of all the good times.

I'm here, trying to get in touch
with the people who murdered him.

I'm here because of the numbers
on that drawing.

So, you need
to fucking listen, Wilson!

Okay. I've sent it to Leah.

We'll wait.
But if that comes back as nothing...

you are going to tell me
how to find Milner.

One way or another.

Cock-face.

Do you know who I am?

You ask him.

- Do you know who he is?
- No. Say "I".

- Do you know who I am?
- Yes. You're my son. Pietre.

No, let him touch you.

- Why did you leave me?
- This is fucking creepy, mate.

You weren't human.

You were...

horrific.

Where's Dad?

It's good to see you again.

I was worried about you.

I missed you.

I'm sorry
about your brother, Ian.

You shouldn't blame yourself.

I don't.

I don't blame myself.

I blame you,
you and your friends.

At least you've lost someone now,
like me and Becky have.

What the fuck is wrong with you?

I have to get
Jen and Alice out now.

Milner said she'd kill them
if I didn't help her.

If she comes back...

I need help.

Please.

So?

That prove what we say?

Er... yes. You are right.
It is exactly as you say.

- The numbers show the adjustment.
- Great. So, you can stop it, right?

What? What is it?

They also show something else.

Something worse.

Much, much worse.

- How much fucking worse?
- We have to find Milner.

We have to stop her now.

Jessica.

If he moves, shoot him.

We're family.
There's no need for that.

Aim for his chest.

What you did to me....

Jessica?

You...

- You know me?
- The eyes.

I know the eyes.

Don't touch me.

Don't you fucking touch me.

I love you.

I love you.

It was always like that.

He only ever had eyes for her.

She ruined everything
for you and me.

Do you want me to drive?

We're doing things our way now.

You should have let us
bring people with us.

They're dangerous.

We've got to get you
out of here now.

This, erm...
will give me your position.

You'll have to take a panel off
one of the windows.

I'm not sure which one.
I'll... I'll text you.

It's on silent, but make sure
nobody hears the buzzer.

Alice, can you, er...
make yourself sick?

- I feel like vomiting all the time.
- Good girl.

Right. They're in that building,
fourth floor.

There's a window up there.
I think it's a bathroom.

You get out that way
and you avoid all the security.

I'll be waiting.

And if no-one kills us,
then I think we should be fine.

Thanks for doing this, Becky.

Alice?

- Shit.
- Jesus Christ, Michael!

You first, Alice.

I have a heights thing.
I-I can't do that. I just can't.

You have a heights thing?
You... you never mentioned it before.

- We've not been high up before.
- We... we went on the London Eye.

- That was okay. It was an enclosed space.
- She has a fucking heights thing, Michael.

You okay in there?

- Yes!
- Right. Right.

Okay, okay. Plan B.

I think she's sick.
She's really sick.

Can you call for a doctor?

Okay.

I'll call.

Get up. Get up!

Right. Right.
Right, give me...

Here. Let's swap.
Go on, here.

Right.
You give... give me the code...

- or I'll kill you.
- I don't think you will.

See, people like you,
you don't do this kind of stuff.

It's not in you.

See, I don't think...

Give him the fucking code!

- Hi, Becky.
- Hey, Alice. Lovely to see you.

Scared of heights, then, eh? That's a
turn-up for the fucking books, innit?

- You okay? Are you all right?
- Yeah. Go!

He's not well.
I think things are coming back to him.

But it's slow.

- What's the adjustment?
- Ochii tăi.

- Te rog! Te rog, nu...
- You're scaring him, Jessica.

He speaks to Grant.
He thinks he's me.

You can trust me.
You know that.

You put Janus in me.
You did that to your own daughter.

I did. I had to.

- He says that...
- I know what he said, Grant.

- I only wanted to protect you.
- Protect me?

- You sterilised me.
- No. I saved you.

I saved you, my darling.
Everything was to save you.

Musai te zhav. Nashti...

- What's going on? What is it?
- I don't know.

- This is too much for him.
- Noi trebuie sa ne omoram!

Philip!

- Noi trebuie sa ne omoram!
- Philip!

It's me.

You haven't changed.

- You haven't changed a bit, Milner.
- I have.

Lots. And so have you.

Let me speak to him alone, Jessica.
He doesn't know you. He'll talk to me.

- No fucking way!
- Oh, Christ, Jessica!

I'm tied. You've got guns and knives.
What can I do?

We both need to find out
what he did to it.

We both need to know.

It's lovely to see you, Grant.

You've grown.
How have you been?

Did you miss Jessica?

It's not easy caring for someone like her.
I know that.

You turned me into a ghost.

What if I did the same to you?

I don't think
that's the sort of person you are.

I believe you were told
to give us some space.

So, do you have a plan, then?

Not really.

I just thought I'd keep moving
and hope that something occurred.

I didn't know it would be you.

How did you find us?
There's no reception.

I met an old couple down below,
said a boy swore at them.

- He's a massive pain in the arse.
- He is.

You've lost weight.
It's nice.

Don't like that beard, though.

You have everything in place?
All ready to go?

Everything you planned,
it's all happening.

What did you do to Janus,
Philip?

I located a racial grouping
in Southeast Asia.

Lower incidence of...
of cancer, heart disease.

Violence... less.

I felt... they were perfect.

- And you chose them?
- I... I wanted to. I did.

But at the very last moment...

I changed my mind.

I chose my own.

Roma.

Roma are the people
that Janus will leave fertile.

I chose, Milner.

I'm so, so sorry.

I said you were a god.

And you were.

Why shouldn't you choose?

You're not angry?

Do you remember
that beautiful separation we felt?

The biggest secret in the world.
Just us.

That feeling's never left,
and now I know I was always waiting.

For what?

For you.

We're nearly there, Philip.

We just have
one last thing to do.

I have this for you.

The person who did this
was very good.

Run, Jessica!

Please?

Now it's just you and me.

You'll be all right. Okay?

Breathe! Breathe!

Milner!

Wilson, thank Christ it's you.

I want you to meet a great man.

This is Philip Carvel.

What? He's Philip Carvel?

Have you given the command yet?

The command to release Russian flu.
Have you given it?

- Yes, I have. Why?
- Christ. Oh, Jesus fucking...

You have to reverse it.

Janus isn't random.
He changed it.

- Yes, I know.
- You know?

I don't agree with
the adjustment he made, I don't...

but it's only going to cost a few
thousand lives and we will have...

Is that what he told you?

Tell her what you found out.

- Janus stops the vaccine from working.
- No. No, no, no, that's not...

Listen to me. The flu vaccine we have
is practically useless.

He's right.

I discovered that Janus
hijacks the vaccine.

It attaches itself to it.

So, it means that
when you're vaccinated...

the antibodies you create to
fight the flu are the wrong shape.

They won't work.

Unless...

Unless?

Unless you are Roma.

The vaccine does
what Janus does.

Only Roma will be protected.

My love for Jessica
was like a physical thing...

an organ that didn't exist
until she was born...

and then
it controlled everything.

You did this for her?

- But we tested it. It worked...
- On Jessica. She's Roma.

Whoever you called to release it,
you have to call him back.

- Just a minute. Let... let me think.
- What's there to think about, Milner?

Make the call.

Dekendra Bilotti.

Access XYL52721.

Commence.

What?

But you said...

commence.

- You hadn't called him?
- It's not what I wanted.

Not at all. All those lives.

- It is unfortunate.
- Unfortunate?

The Russian flu vaccine
doesn't work.

That's millions of lives.
Hundreds of millions, even.

And there are seven billion
on this planet.

100 million
won't even make a dent.

We're trying to save the species.

If it costs a few million individuals,
isn't that okay?

It's not fucking okay!
Call back!

Call him back now!
Stop him!

I told you to call him back.

You can't shoot me.

I'm the only one
who knows who he is.

No, no, it's fine.

I understand.

I understand completely.

Throw the gun.

Get on your knees. Now!

It's easy, this.
You're next, mate.

- Grant, don't! Don't. Please?
- Why?

Why not you as well?

Because... I'm asking you.

Please.

- Fuck.
- It's all right.

What have I done?

No, no, no, no, no.

It's wrong...

Hey!

Hey, you! I'm talking to you.

You can't take a call,
not when you're serving.

Who the fuck are you,
taking a call when...?

And who the fuck
do you think you...?

Hey! I'm talking to you!

Who the fuck are ya?
Eh? Who the fuck are ya?
