FINGERS:

(to James)

Come on then Boss, what do you say can we start

drinking or what?

JAMES:

No, still on duty. R and R doesn't begin until Lane

finishes her debriefing. Then we R and R together.

MONK:

One in all in, yeah.

Throws the ball at James, who returns it with meaning.

JAMES:

That's correct Monk!

FINGERS:

(to James)

Easy…

IN:
10:08:17 INT. HOTEL ANNEX. DAY

Payne, Hare, Wray and James with Georgie. Payne is showing her images of white converts.

Georgie staring at the screen.

She shakes her head.

GEORGIE:

No. No. No.

MAJOR HARE:

Kenyan security forces are monitoring borders...

GEORGIE:

So he's still in Kenya?

CAPTAIN PAYNE:

Almost certainly.

BRIGADIER WRAY:

Lying low in a safe house somewhere, not knowing who

to trust.

MAJOR HARE:

Well he'll be aware that we have covert agents

embedded in Al Shabaab cells...

GEORGIE:

We know where he is? Or where he might be? How

many white converts have we got floating around...

MAJOR HARE:

We are aware of how urgent the current situation is...

Georgie nods, clearly anxious.

CAPTAIN PAYNE:

You hold the most significant of all intel. You can identify

the entire cell. Not just Abu but his superiors in their

chain of command.

Georgie nods knowing how key her evidence is. James looks at her and nods reassuringly.

GEORGIE:

I didn't have much time in their ops room... But enough

time to see detailed plans of this shopping mall... after

what happened in Nairobi at the Westgate Mall...

She senses them all studying her, clearly anxious as to the accuracy of her memory. Or whether

she is still in a state of trauma.

MAJOR HARE:

Well that's why you need to be as precise as you can be,

so we can identify the target.

She studies another potential Abu and shakes her head.

GEORGIE:

I saw photo's of a erm, a, a bird I think... Poppies..

CAPTAIN PAYNE:

Y, you think a bird?

GEORGIE:

Yes Sir. A statue. But I'm not a hundred percent sure! I

saw erm, Google images... aerial photographs printed

from an internet type of thing.

They look at her briefly before carrying on studying the faces. Shaking her head each time. She

flashes a look to James

BRIGADIER WRAY:

You'd definitely recognise him?

Georgie nods. More images.

MAJOR HARE:

Intelligence suggesting he's from London.

GEORGIE:

Yes sir. It's London.

MAJOR HARE:

All video surveillance, from Kenya and across the Somali

border is being scrutinised for white insurgents.

BRIGADIER WRAY:

He will be found. It's just a matter of time.

GEORGIE:

Exactly. Time. We need to get him before he gets us.

James nods at another face. Georgie gives a little shake of the head.

GEORGIE (CONT'D)
