Danny Hunter: You will never win. If I'd been born somewhere else, it might have been me holding the gun now. If you'd been born somewhere else, it might have been you sitting where I am. For all your talk about choices, we don't get to choose those things. But I guess you're just unlucky, because somehow you've lost your humanity and now have no kindness or pity left in you. But I still have those things. Acts of hatred also produce acts of love, so you, my friend, will never win.
Ahmed: I'm unlucky?
Danny Hunter: Look at all the cake and presents, Fiona.
Fiona Carter: [crying] Oh, no, Danny, no, please don't! Danny please don't do this!
Danny Hunter: If I weren't chained to this chair, I would be right up in your face. And you know what I'd be saying to you? Fuck you, you death-worshipping fascist!
Iraqi nationalists have been tracking Adam and Fiona and it is her birthday. They both met in Syria and Adam has bought a special present for her.
However Danny and Fiona follow a lead and walk into a trap. Fiona had to shoot a video message. Adam has to meet one of the captors and follow their instructions.
Only Ruth Evershed realises something is wrong when Adam rings her and leaves a coded message.
Harry needs to act fast especially as the Prime Minister is to due to have an important meeting and give a speech.
This one really is a race against time. All three characters, Fiona, Danny and Adam are in jeopardy. A new character Zafar is introduced which again gives the idea that someone is going to be replaced.
The villains are ruthless, they threaten to burn Danny and Fiona alive. However given that this was broadcast just over 18 months after the second invasion of Iraq. It was clear by then the death and destruction that ordinary Iraqis suffered. Wedding parties that were inadvertently bombed by the allies. As one of them tels the operatives. You cannot hold the moral high ground just because you bomb from a distance and leave carnage behind.
