you for your help, once more.

This is the business,

we've chosen.

Conolly's great game,

is still being played.

We need men,

with your particular skill set.

Until today we had no idea,

that the plot you uncovered, even existed.

But we should have.

Do you recognize this young woman?

Her name is Alayna Wallace.

- Yeah, I saw her with Abdullah.

- She's our informant.

Informant? We were told that

al-Qaeda never use women.

Every parasite adapts

to its host and evolves.

It's only a question of time.

Why her?

Why's she so special?

Because she bridges

two worlds,

east and west,

and she can move freely in both.

She met Abdullah, at the University

of London, as a student.

He, uh...

wanted to... radicalize her.

Instead she came to us.

We've been unable to make contact

with her, for the last three months.

We think there's another plot,

but what that is exactly,

we haven't been able to assertain.

- What does she do for Abdullah?

- Whatever he requires.

- Do you trust her?

- We want you to make contact with her.

And find out what's going on.

Fahad! Fahad! What the f*** you're doing?

That's Jones' drug hole.

- So what?

- You want to get yourself killed?

I'll burn his f***ing drugs.

You happy?

- Ramush.

- That's a big order my friend.

- I know.

- Are you planning a war?

It's necessary,

I'm starting an army.

Gotta get

my people trained up.

Where you training,

here, in this sh*t hole?

Wherever.

Stay away from Jones.

Yeah?

Oh...

Who'd you upset?

What is it Tse-tung says,

about warfare?

You never... let your enemy

impose his win on you.

You need any help, Miller...

you let me know.

This tracker is magnetised,

so it's great for use in all cars.

Just pop in the sim card

and call it from your mobile.

Black coffee, please, mate.

- Alana Wallace?

- Alyana.

- You're one of Turner's men?

- That's right.

- What's your name?

- Miller.

Interesting meeting place.

- You often hang around women's toilets?

- Yeah.

- What do you want?

- Information about Abdullah.

Your people seem to have

a good enough handle on that.

Tell Turner...

I don't know anything...

Miller.

- She's terrified.

- Abdullah stepped up her security too.

He's hired a bunch of Chechens.

They're not here for the Jihad,

they're here for the money.

Also, we have to consider

the possibility...

that she's been feeding us false intel,

maybe even from the start.

- You don't trust her?

- You earn trust.

What does she gain

by feeding us false intel?

She came to us two years ago.

Since then, she's been working

with these people non-stop.

Who knows

what effect that could have.

- And she's perfect cover for him.
