(SPEAKING IN FRENCH) He received intelligence on the location
of a Taliban commander.
Pearce and his men were sent to kill him.
But they walked into an ambush.
(PANTING) Okay, let's go.
Simone?
I think you should be very proud of what you did tonight.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYING)
What do you want?
I need you to get a message to the President for me.
(VINCENT SPEAKING FRENCH) Pearce called me.
He asked me to deliver a message to you.
What did he say?
He says you have 48 hours to hand yourself over to him
or he's going to detonate a dirty bomb in the centre of Paris

(IN ENGLISH) Hey.
We found this picture on Simone's sister's Facebook.
This is Antoni Kaminski.
He served under Pearce in the Foreign Legion.
He was killed in the ambush.
How did we not know about this?
- They were dating? - RUBEN: Yeah.
We looked into everyone who served with Pearce.
They weren't married,
and there's no official record of their relationship.
- We should talk to the sister. - ZARA: Okay.
ZARA: Thanks.
At least Simone didn't sell out for money.
I guess that's something.
It's never been about money for Pearce.
He burned 100 million euros.
So why did DCX Capital finance his operation?
What's in it for them?
The best time to make money
is when there is blood on the streets.
- Someone said that. - Wow. You're so profound.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYING)
There somewhere you need to be?
Erm, I have a hospital appointment.
You're going away?
I'm going to stay with friends in Nantes.
I thought you said you had a hospital appointment.
I'm going after.
Simone told you to leave the city, didn't she?
No.
I-I told you, I haven't heard from her.
Did Simone give you this phone?
It's a burner phone, isn't it?
There's a bomb somewhere in Paris.
If it goes off, thousands of people will die.
Er...
Simone messaged me last night...
and she told me to go,
to, to leave the city.
I'm sorry.
(VINCENT SPEAKING FRENCH) Lucas? It's me.
We've got Simone's phone number.
It might help us find her. Trace this number.
Nuclear safety officers are continuing to search the city.
They haven't detected any traces of uranium.
If the bomb's detonated, what area will be contaminated?
It depends on the quantity of explosives.
And the wind speed and direction With this amount of uranium,
four square kilometres could be contaminated.
If it gets into the water supply, a much larger area would be affected.
So we could be forced to evacuate the entire city?
If we can't locate the bomb, yes.
Why not order the evacuation now?
It could spook Pearce into detonating the bomb.
There is another option...
I hand myself over to Pearce.
It might be the only way to stop him detonating the bomb.
We can't be seen to capitulate to terrorists.
It would do huge damage to the nation's credibility.
Surely it's my choice?
A choice we could never allow you to make.
You're all in agreement?
We have less than twenty four hours,
If the bomb isn't found by 6pm we give the order to evacuate Paris.
If I have to order the evacuation, my Presidency is over.
Years of work, the sacrifices I've made. All for nothing.
On the contrary,
if you show strong leadership, maybe you can come through it.
How many innocent people have to die in order for me to look strong?
We have to hope it doesn't come to that.
He wants to destroy my legacy, my reputaion.

ELINE: Yes. Very good.
Madame la Presidente.
The task force have located the bomb.
- Where? - Avenue de Saxe.
They're mounting an operation to disarm it.
Okay, So the bomb is inside a van parked in Avenue de Saxe.
According to Simone, Pearce has a spotter
in an apartment on the north side of the square.
He checks in with Pearce every 15 minutes.
And Pearce has cameras in the apartment and inside the van.
We're gonna intercept the feed from the cameras
and put them on a loop
before we move in and take out the spotter.
Bomb disposal officers will attempt to disarm the device.

The uranium is packed in plastic, probably Semtex.
There's seven bars of TNT and about 200 kilos of ammonium nitrate.
The contamination zone is going to be bigger than we thought.
Can you disarm it?
There's two separate anti-tamper devices.
I can bypass them, but it will take time.
- How long? - Twenty minutes.
If I rush it, there is a chance the bomb will detonate.
We don't have 20 minutes.
And Pearce is gonna know there's something wrong
when the lookout doesn't check in.
Okay.
If we can get the bomb to the tunnel Rue Citroen,
we contain the explosion, minimise the fallout.
We're really doing this?

Madame La Presidente.

My dear compatriots,
as you are aware, Paris has recently suffered a series
of deadly terrorist attacks.
The terrorists responsible for these attacks
have acquired a low grade uranium bomb
and are threatening to detonate it in the centre of Paris.
I know many of you will be scared,
I share this fear.
Together, we must show trust, courage and determination.
To help the security services deal with this grave situation.
I am declaring a state of emergency.
It is with deep regret
that I must order the evacuation of Central Paris.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYING)
NEWS ANCHOR: (IN ENGLISH) The French president has ordered
the evacuation of central Paris.
We'll let the markets slide lower,
before we cash out our position.
NEWS ANCHOR 1: One hundred thousand people
have been forced to leave their homes.
The roads out of the city are heavily congested.
ANCHOR 2: The French stock market has gone into free fall
as investors react to the news of the evacuation.
THEA: Zara, are you okay?
You sounded so weird.
I was so scared.
I know, I'm sorry.
I thought it might be the last time I spoke to you.
Don't say that, please.
When are you leaving Paris?
Soon.
Okay, well, come here.
Come to Charlotte's. It's away from the city.
JACOB: I don't trust Vincent to deliver The President.
We need her as an insurance policy.
Understood.
(SPEAKING IN FRENCH) On the Paris ring road traffic is at a standstill.
Everyone is leaving the capital and the traffic jams are enormous.
The motorways out of Paris are completely overloaded.
To help those trying to leave Paris, the polce have just opened...
(IN ENGLISH) It feels like we failed.
There's a way to stop Pearce detonating the bomb.
We pretend to hand the President over to him.
She gets close to him.
- And then what? - She kills him.
What?
Are you out of your mind?
Pearce will kill her.
She asks people to risk their lives all the time.
She'll never agree to it.
She wants Pearce dead more than anyone.
What if you can convince her
that this is the only way to save her presidency?
Pearce is blinded by his hate for her.
He won't expect it.
Even if I could convince her,
I mean, her team will never allow it.
Well, then you have to get her away from them.
The coward has to go!
(CELINE SPEAKING IN FRENCH) The evacuation's proceeding as planned.
We should have everyone out in the next few hours.
Have you seen what people are saying about me?
I'm a coward who has failed my country.
- Maybe they're right. - You should stop reading it.
There's nothing more you could have done.
- Really? - Yes.
Vincent's asking for clearance to enter the bunker.
He needs to talk to you. He says it's important.
Okay.
Vincent is here.
Show him in.
You can leave us alone.
That's the hardest decision I've ever made.
I know. But you had no choice.
How did you stop Pearce detonating the bomb?
I was told you offered to hand me over to him.
Is it true?
It was the only way to stop him.
I was playing for time...
And?
What if we pretend we're actually going to do it?
The only way to finish this,
is to hand you over to Pearce...
And then you kill him.
