SINGHAL:
You been home?
BURR:
Came straight from the airport.
SINGHAL:
Shame. Mr Burr would’ve been
excited to see you.
BURR:
Oh give over. Close the door.
She gets out the briefcase.
She signals SINGHAL to turn on the radio which he does. She
takes from her briefcase the envelope containing Pine’s
photographs of Roper’s accounts. She opens them. Stares at a
series of annotations made by APOSTOL.
She stares at them. SINGHAL joins her.
BURR (CONT’D)
Investors in Tradepass. Translated
by the Spaniard. Names on the left.
Numbers on the right.
They look at the total figure. Three hundred million. She
follows the numbers.
BURR (CONT’D)
Roper buys weapons at 300 million
dollars, cash-flowed by investors
who know nothing about what they’re
trading in. Or don’t want to know.
(MORE)
BURR (CONT’D)
The investors are guaranteed 20%
profit in twelve months. So Roper
pays back 360 million at the end of
the deal. But look what he’s
selling at.
STEADMAN looks down: Sees the number: ESP - 600 million
dollars.
SINGHAL:
What’s that?
BURR:
Estimated sale price. His dad was
an auctioneer.
SINGHAL:
That’s a profit of 240 million.
BURR:
Not bad for a year’s work.
They stare at each other.
BURR (CONT’D)
Now look at this. Consultation
fees.
In the expenses column there’s an expense marked:
Consultation Fees. Halo and Felix. 5 million dollars.
SINGHAL:
Who are Halo and Felix?
The office phone rings like an explosion. SINGHAL answers.
SINGHAL (CONT’D)
Singhal. IEA.
Looks surprised.
SINGHAL (CONT’D)
Yes of course. (holds out the
phone) It’s Mayhew. I think he’s on
the warpath.
12 INT. MAYHEW’S OFFICE. FCO. LONDON. DAY. 12
BURR and MAYHEW alone. MAYHEW is on his feet, furious, but
speaks in hushed tones as if the very walls are his enemy.
MAYHEW:
An unmarked van forcing me off
Swiss Cottage Road. Is that what
it’s come to? This is London for
Christ’s sake!
BURR:
that’s all.
MAYHEW:
Well they picked the wrong man.
They’re going to get a Whitehall
knife-fight like they’ve never
seen. Your budget is tripled, don’t
ask me where I got it from, best
you don’t know. How many more
people do you want?
BURR:
I need sigint, intelligence
gathering and analysis. Six
minimum. People I can trust.
MAYHEW:
You choose them. You choose
everything. Get Steadman back here,
tell him we’re joining forces. Get
a new office. Have it swept, new
company. New kit. Everything.
BURR:
Rex sit down. I have something to
show you.
BURR hands him the same annotated sheets. MAYHEW stares in
pure shock.
