## History

### Season 1

Jackson Lamb is awoken by his own fart and he lights up a cigarette as a woman makes it into her office. Jackson calls Standish into his office and complains about "MI-useless".

River walks up to Lamb's office and tells him that he does not know what he is looking for in the trash, to which he is told that he is looking for the remnants of a once promising career. Lamb wonders hat he has found, to which River responds that he has not found many things. He wonders if they wanted their suspect to know they were onto him, but Lamb tells him that there was no "we", but only him telling River what to do. Lamb laughs when River asks if he would be watching Hobden, saying that things did not go well last time he had had any sort of responsibility. He is reminded of the gravity of the bombing at the train station, which he says is a daily occurrence and Lamb says he would do it on the weekends as well if he did not hate him as much. He tells River that he is surrounded by fuckups in their building, but he is the biggest one. Lamb says that he does not like him and wants him to quit, so River goes back to the trash.

Sid walks up to Lamb, who congratulates her on what she had done with Hobden. River asks what was on Hobden's flashdrive, but Lamb tells them to get out of his office. River wonders why they were both assigned to Hobden, but Sid reminds him that he was not really doing much.

Lamb calls Diana and tells her that they have Hobden's laptop files. Diana says that she would not be sending a courier, but tells him to send one of his "donkeys" instead. She asks him to send Sid who was the "least shit". Lamb tells her that she owes him.

River walks up to Lamb's office, who says he meant to call Sid. However, he tells River to deliver the package to Regent's Park, which he found strange, since he could not believe it had been passed to them. Lamb says that they did not want him to deliver it, but he is being sent because Sid is not there. Lamb tells him to take the package to Webb.

Lamb is woken up by Catherine and he pours them both a drink, which she does not take. The employees walk out of the Slough House and go about their lives, not wanting to get a drink.

Lamb walks into Sid and River's office, saying that if people did not leave the building by 5 then he was not doing his job properly. He tells them that if he finds out they are taking part in extracurricular that activities that could ruin the balance of the Slough House, then he would make it so they wished they were in a Siberian gulag.

Roddy calls River and Sid, telling them that there was a hostage that had been picked up yesterday and had popped up on a Middle East chat a while ago. All the Slough House starts watching the video, which makes Lamb wonder why. He tells them that whatever was happening would be assigned to real agents, not them since they are fuckups. They wonder what they should do, but Lamb says that nothing. River tells Sid that Hobden's old crew was the British Patriotic Party and one of them might have something to do with it. It is announced that the young man's head would be cut off the next day, but Lamb tells that that changes nothing. He asks where River is however, but he was already gone.

Lamb opens his window and is approached by Catherine, who tells him that Cartwright was not answering his phone. Lamb tells her that when Cartwright comes back, he wants him tied to his desk doing nothing.

Lamb lights up a cigarette as Catherine wonders if he is not only worried about River, to which he replies that it was not a coincidence that Diana Taverner ran a special op on a right-wing reject just as some nationalists kidnapped "a brown kid".

Lamb asks Catherine to get him Taverner on the phone, however, Diana does not pickup. He tells her that he wants to tell her about the results to her test. He asks when Cartwright had left and is told that about two hours ago. He invites Catherine for a drink, but she does not want it.

Catherine walks into Lamb's office and puts out his cigarette. He asks for Ho, but she says that he is gone. Lamb asks her to get him back then.

At a hospital, River is followed by a man, who makes sure he is secure. The man is attacked by another man Lamb, who opens the door only to see River with a shoe in a bag and says he is embarrassed for him. Lamb tells him to take all the time he needs as they walk towards reception and River asks for Sid. River tells Lamb that they could not leave without knowing how she is, but Lamb simply responds that she is still on the table, also berating him for having gotten in the ambulance with her. He tells her that the dog had been following him because he had gotten in the ambulance. River asks Lamb how he knew he was there, to which Lamb simply responds that he had gotten Ho to monitor the Park's alerts in case he did something as stupid as he did. Lamb says that the doctors were saying she might live.

River and Lamb drive around. River asks him why he had brought him back to Slough House, to which Lamb responds that he is one of his agents and was there when another one of his agents was shot, so he wanted to know what they were doing at Hobden's. River explains that he has something on his laptop and speculates that he has something to do with the kidnappers. Lamb wonders if Sid thought that as well and River tells him that Sid followed him. When Lamb asks who shot Sid, River says that the man had a balaclava on and tactical gear, so he was not able to see who it was. River says that it was strange, almost as if the man wanted him to think he was one of the Dogs, but he thinks it was not quite right and he did not speak.

At the Slough House, Lamb and River see Min and Louisa, with Jed Moody on the floor - dead. Lamb says that he is not sure that the murder could be considered defense, but Min explains that he had a gun. Lamb says that is better for their case and adds that he had shot Sid earlier as well. River explains why Sid had been shot and asks why Moody was there. She says that they did not get the chance to ask, but tells Lamb that he had been in his office. Lamb asks if they could account for their movements and Louisa explains that they were in the pub across the road. Lamb wonders if it seemed like Moody was going to use the gun, saying that it would be better for their case to say that it did seem that way. Lamb sees that Moody had been cleaning up and sees that he had two phones, using the one that only had one call from it. He calls it and Diana picks up, telling her that they need to talk.

Diana meets Lamb at a discrete location. She asks if he is alone, but he simply says that he does not know why they never clean the canals. She asks him what he is playing at, to which he responds that it's choice considering he had lent her an agent and now she has a bullet in her head. He She says that the brief was not for her to be on Hobden 24/7 and he says that the brief was to be on Cartwright 24/7, which now makes him think that Sid was her agent all along. He tells her that Sid had been shot outside of Hobden's house by Jed Moody, another one of her recruits, so he turns the question around and asks her what she is playing at. She tells him that he runs Slough House, but she is Second Desk, head of ops, which means directing all personnel. Lamb wonders what to do with the body on his staircase, which surprises Diana. She asks who took him down and Lamb says that the funny thing is that he forgot to tie his shoelaces, which makes him laugh. Diana says that it would not be so funny in front of Limitations. He asks her if they should call in the Dogs since it is a death and he says he could call the police, but the odd thing is that the only phone number on it is hers. He lights up a cigarette and tells her that she has until he finishes it for him to start making calls. She tells him that she was talking to his brother at the Frontline Club, where she mentioned that they are developing operations to neutralize the nationalists. Lamb finds this unbelievable, but Diana says that her plan is not half-assed since she saw Hobden in the booth behind them at the bar and she says that it is bad tradecraft on her part.

Lamb tells Diana that she seems pretty calm for someone who setup a false operation to behead an innocent kid in a few hours. She says that they would not do it, but Lamb says that their core messaging suggests that they are. Diana says that their agent told them that they did not need a beheading, just that they could if they were pushed. Lamb says that he does not fancy her odds, but she says that the kid was chosen carefully - Mahmud Gul's nephew. Lamb says that he knows Mahmud Gu is number two in Pakistan's military intelligence. Diana says that they would rescue his nephew, which she hopes would get them 10% more cooperation with the Pakistanis. Lamb cannot believe it, telling her that that was not a sactioned service op, it is off the books and they have Hobden around.

Lamb tells Diana that if the Sons got wind of what she is up to, both her man and the kid are dead. He tells her to bring the Dogs early, but she says it is not possible. Diana tells him that he would help her, but he says that he would not and his agents would not help her either. Diana says that Hassan is being held in a house on their side of the river, so all he would need to do is literally knock on the door. She says that his face would be the signal, since he is a legend in the service. Lamb says that he has other things he could do, but Diana simply asks if Moody was alone when he died, saying that if he had company, it might come under intense scrutiny. He tells her to call the Dogs and after they ripped her apart, they might stil have enough strength to pick at the rest of what had happened, saying that either way, he does not care. She asks if that would be the case even if it was Standish, which he finds surprising. She says a lot of things could happen if the case was reopened, but he says that that is not a can of worms she wants to open, which she agrees with. She says that like it or not, Slough House was a part of what was happening and Standish should not find out. He says that he would knock on the door, but wanted the Standish file. He adds that he does not want Slough House to be her playground anymore, Moody gone, Baker a victim of street crime, and anyone with him that night fireproof. He says that she is also in his debt until she is old. She realizes that he really cares about his agents, but he says that he does not and thinks that they are a bunch of losers, but they are his losers.

River, Louisa, and Min wait for Lamb, who asks what happened to the gun. River hands it to him and they all follow their boss, who tells them that they were going to Roupell Street, which was at the south of the river since they would be assisting in the rescue of Hassan Ahmed.

Diana makes it back to the office, where she is told that they had less than four hours to rescue Hassan. She calls a man, telling him to proceed with the plan after Lamb knocked on the door. The Dogs start moving after that.

In Lamb's car, River asks if the money he took from Moody was his flight fund in case he needed to make a run for it. Lamb says that there were 1500 pounds, a passport and a key to a box which was in a bank in a small French town four hours away from Paris. Lamb wonders why he is telling him all that and River figures it is in case he needs an excuse to kill him, which Lamb says is probably correct.

Lamb, River, Louisa, and Min make it to the house, where Lamb loads a gun, which River finds strange. Lamb says that the whole op is fucked, however, and walks towards there, stroking a cat as he makes his way towards the house. He walks to the front door, which opens and the three agents go after him. River follows Lamb to the kitchen, where they see blood everywhere and Moe's head on the table.

River pukes while Lamb asks Louisa for her phone. Min gives it to him, as Lamb tells them all that they need to disappear. Lamb orders them to get Ho and Loy, also telling Cartwright that he would see them later. Cartwright tells Min and Louisa that he recognized the head as Louisa says that he was one of them. As they leave, the Dogs make it to the house. Lamb walks through the streets, buying a hat from a man.

Catherine gets knocks at her door, seeing it was Lamb there. He tells her to get dressed immediately. At Catherine's house, Lamb sees a van approach as Catherine hears messages left by Diana asking her to come to the Park since Lamb had gone rogue. Lamb tells her to hurry up and she asks what Taverner meant with Charles' death, but he says that she could leave with him or people that are less friendly, so she goes with him.

Catherine asks Lamb if River had gone rogue, but he says that Baker had been hurt and Moody is dead. He adds that there is probably a C&C out on all of them at that very moment. They get off an elevator and into the street, where Duffy and Webb see them. Webb asks to see if he had a weapon and Lamb tells Duffy to shut the kid up. Duffy pats him and tells Webb that he could drive as they escort the two to their car.

Diana gets a call from Duffy, who tells her that both he and Webb had caught Lamb and Catherine. Lamb asks to be interrogated in a room with a window as Diana removes Loy from his chair, telling him that Catherine would be coming in. When Diana tells Loy that she would be telling his family that he was linked to Black's murder, says that he definitely remembers Black and Lamb together.

In the car, Lamb sneezes, asking if they would be taken to the basement cells. He says he knows that Slough House would be blamed for the disaster, also adding that of course she would rather have the kid die than admit it was her fault, asking Duffy what he believed. Duffy says that the last time he was in the Park, Diana was in charge, so he would do what she said until that changed, but he says that finding the kid is more important. Sneezing, Lamb wants a tissue, but Catherine wants a question answered first, wondering about the voicemail she had received. Lamb says that he would tell her later and she pulls a gun out, telling Webb that she would shoot his foot if she needed to. Duffy and Webb get out of the car and are left behind after that.

As Lamb and Catherine drive away, Lamb congratulates her on how she is full of surprises.

Min and Louisa climb over a fence and walk through a cemetery, while Catherine and Lamb walk in as well. Catherine asks about Charles' death, but Lamb tells her that it was not the best time to talk about it. Louisa tells Lamb that the Dogs got to Loy before they did. Ho reaches the group and tells them that Cartwright had tried to see Sid. Lamb tells them that they need to leave, since Taverner and Black had a plan and now that it had failed, she would try to play it as Slough House gone rogue. Louisa asks about Hassan, who Lamb says would be dead soon. River makes it to where the group is and tells Ho that he is a dickhead.

River tells Lamb that he remembers where he saw Black and Taverner together, saying that he had seen them talking at her gym café when he followed Taverner secretly. He says that he was following her for surveillance training, so he took a photograph. He says that he might have a copy, but Min says that that is hopeless. Lamb tells the group that he usually does not do speeches, but recognizes that it is a big moment and might not see them again. He tells them that they are useless and that working with them has been the lowest point in a disappointing career, telling River to follow him. Louisa says that they could try to save Hassan in the meantime, but Lamb says that that would be a sure way to get him killed, so he instructs them to hide in a toilet somewhere.

Lamb asks River if he left the lights on, but he does not remember. They walk back into the Slough House, where Lamb tells River to walk in alone and tell him if Dogs were there.

Lamb drives in a van into the Park, where he is immediately stopped. Lamb says that he does not want to get out of the vehicle since it is comfortable, wanting the security guard to fetch his boss and tell him that he had brought the car back, but they need to go over the damage waiver.

Lamb keeps singing in the car when Duffy shows up and tells him to get out, saying that he had pointed a gun at him. However, Lamb says that he delegated that and she had pointed the gun at his boy. Lamb finally gets out of the car and hands Duffy his gun.

Diana tells Lamb that Alan Black's body had been found and he pretends to not know who she is talking about. She tells him he was involved in capturing Ahmed and Lamb says that he remembers her telling him that she had a man on the inside. She tells him that she has a statement from someone who saw him and Black meeting after he had left Slough House. He wonders if Struan's word stacked up against his, but she says that Standish would show and turn when she knew why he is at Slough House. She tells him that Sid is dead and tells him that she would make him an offer, which he says make sense because she needs to have everything wrapped up before Tearney lands and he could blow the whistle on her, which she says he does not have. He says that he is not sure her career would survive the death of Ahmed and tells her to make her pitch. She tells him to sign a statement that matched Loy's and that would be the end of it, but Lamb knows it would be the end of him. However, she tells him that he would be fired, but with no charges and a good enough pension. Lamb asks when Tearny would get back because he would love to run all that by her, but she says that they could also just wait for the Slow Horses to walk in and accept a job back at the Park while he festers in the basement. He says that the deal sounds wonderful and asks for her to print the statement, but suddenly remembers that he was going to tell her that the car he brought in has a bomb. Diana moves and tells Duffy to take a look.

Diana walks into her office and hands Lamb his fake bomb, also saying that Duffy and his men were sweeping the building, thinking it is probably Cartwright who was smuggled in. However, he says that it is to test her security because her guys are not very good. Diana gets a call and asks for someone to be put in the basement next to Loy. Lamb says that if his men were as good as hers, they would be hers. She offers to have him sign the confession while he asks who she had sent to the basement as River walks into the office. He tells her not to call anyone and hands her the Fiasco file. She tells them that she could have a dozen guns pointed at their heads in seconds, but Lamb knows she would not do that because she would not want anyone to see her with Alan Black. He tells her that he now has evidence and hands her the confession, saying that it now had her name. She says that meeting with an ex-agent means nothing, so River says that she probably would not mind if they sent the photos to Tearney, everyone else at the Park, and River suggests that they could even send it to Hobden, but Lamb says that news desks would be better. Diana asks them what they want and Lamb says that he wants Ahmed found and alive, but thinks her attention has been split between finding the boy and burning him. Diana tells Lamb that there were three cars they were targeting, and they had lost all three. Lamb says that she could do more, since it turns out that Hobden had called someone when it all went to shit, so he tells her to pay that person a visit.

Peter is awoken, told that Diana Taverner is downstairs waiting for him. In a car, River looks towards Peter's house, wondering what the others were up to. However, Lamb is not listening since he is asleep.

Ho and Catherine reach Lamb and River, saying that they must have the photographs, which River confirms. Catherine tells them that Ho had worked out a way to track the kidnappers, so Min and Louisa had gone to look for them, which Lamb does not agree with, saying that he hopes they only get themselves killed and do not set an orphanage on fire. When Diana leaves Peter's house, Lamb tells her that they are headed to Harwich, knowing this thanks to Ho. He tells Diana that he would be going to bed and leaves Ho and Catherine behind. Ho hands Diana the van's plate number and the theft locator's ID. Catherine refuses to work with Diana unless she tells him about Partner's death, but she tells her that the ship had sailed when she pulled a gun on the Dogs.

Ho tells Lamb and River that the van is twenty miles ahead of them and Min and Louisa are 10 miles ahead. River wants to know how Sid is, but Lamb grabs his phone and throws it to the back of the car, telling him that he needs to hear from him that Sid is gone. Lamb tells him to count himself lucky, which River does not agree with at first, but Lamb says that when he was River's age, he had lost many partners and would not forget Sid because she was the only one of them who was not complete shit. Lamb tells him to get used to death because he would see a lot more of it.

Min and Louisa wait at the side of the road when the former tells Louisa that it had been a while since he had been with someone that did not completely hate him and both of them kissing had been great. He liked that they had had each other's back, but Louisa complains that without gas they could not catch the kidnappers. However, Min says that they were never going to actually catch them, since it just felt good being a part of something. Louisa says that it had been two years since somebody had her back. Lamb and River pass them on their car, but Lamb does not stop for them because he says that they have little time.

Ho calls River, telling him that the Dogs had shredded a kidnapper, adding that Taverner was not taking any prisoners. River asks about Hassan, but Ho says that there was no sign of him. When Lamb asks where the van had last stopped, Roddy tells him that that had happened five miles behind him.

Lamb and River pick Min and Louisa up, telling them to get into the car quickly.

Lamb, River, Min, and Louisa reach the last place where the van had stopped, which Lamb confirms was the right spot after seeing a dead body near them. Lamb hands River a gun and all of them except for Lamb move through the woods.

Curly is put in an ambulance as Hassan is taken away in another one. River, Lamb, Min and Louisa drive away as news vans fill the location.

Back at Slough House, River, Lamb, Min and Louisa see Ho and Ingrid watching the news. Catherine congratulates the Slow Horses and herself as Min says that he has a bottle of wine if anyone wanted to celebrate. Lamb asks why they would celebrate if they were useless. However, Ho says that he tracked the van, while River says that he had actually saved him, but Lamb replies that the kid had saved himself with a rock. River sarcastically says that he loves their team talks and Lamb tells them to get back to work, only to tell them to piss off instead when he learns it is Saturday.

Lamb has Taverner's pictures with Alan Black, which he puts in a bag.

River reaches his office and looks at Sid's desk. Wearing gloves, he sees Lamb leave with a bag and starts picking up the trash.

Lamb waits for Diana, who greets him. He congratulates her for managing to keep the name Alan Black out of the headlines. She tells him that he never existed and corrects him, calling him Dermot Radcliffe, a Son of Albion. Lamb hands her the bag and she hands him an envelope. Lamb wonders if Hassan had heard anything strange, which she says is possible, but his student debts had been cleared and his comedy club would receive a large donation. He tells her that what he does not like is that she won, but she simply asks him what he would tell Standish about what was in that file and the photographs on Cartwright's phone. He tells her that the photos were deleted and she also asks if he wants Struan back. He tells her that she put him in a difficult position because she had offered him a return to the Park, but they both agree that he could be let go. After that, Diana asks about Cartwright, which Lamb does not answer.

Lamb walks back into Slough House and walks into his office, opening Charles Partner's file, which had both Catherine and himself inside it. He puts it in a drawer and smokes as Catherine joins him. She asks him about Charles again and he reveals that he had given him the gun because he had asked for one and he was his friend. Lamb says that it had been after the wall came down and Charles had told him that he had seen some unfriendly faces. Lamb thought he was being paranoid, but it threw him off and put a dent in his armor. Lamb admits that he did not want to be in the field and wanted to be a civilian even less, which is why he asked for Slough House, where he could just run out the clock and nothing mattered and nobody got hurt.

In the past, Lamb walks into Charles' home. When Charles gets into the bathtub, he forces his head underwater and shoots his head, making it look like a suicide. After that, he gets into his car and meets with David Cartwright, telling him it was done, but so was he. David tells him that they could not find out, which Lamb says he hopes does not happen for his sake.

### Season 2

In Last Stop, when she gets to Slough House, Catherine Standish kicks in the door just to enter the building, and the place is eerily quiet. As it turns out, Jackson and River Cartwright are nowhere to be seen.

In From Upshott with Love, Lamb meets with ex-KGB member Nikolai Katinsky, the Russian defector mentioned the term cicadas in his British debrief and Lamb wants to investigate further. They head to the pub for a private chat. Nikolai explains how the Brits weren’t interested in his information, but Lamb wants to know everything. Lamb and Diana have another one of their casual canal meet-ups. Diana is curious to hear what Slough House wants with Nikolai. Lamb explains the debriefing from twenty years ago. They then chat about Richard Bough and his note about cicadas. Diana calls it all nonsense, yet Lamb thinks they have a match on Popov’s goon and Richard’s killer. Later, River's driver ditches him in the middle of nowhere and Lamb has to come and pick him up. Lamb thinks the whole cover up has been handled clumsily, as if on purpose. Proposing the notion that he is trying to get Lamb’s attention for some reason. Lamb states that they may need to walk into the trap to see why it was set in the first place.

In Drinking Games, Lamb wants the Russians to grow more suspicious and eventually make their presence known. Our secret agent is instantly suspicious of this man and speaks with Lamb about his concerns later that day. Lamb is informed that one of his team members has been killed. The agent, who was clearly on to something, becomes the second casualty in this Russian saga. Lamb and Catherine Standish drive over to the scene of the crime. She asks Lamb if she can stay busy and keep on with the Russian job. Later, Lamb accepts and offers up Marcus in Min’s place. Lamb knows Min’s death wasn’t an accident and he kick-starts his own private investigation. Lamb questions the driver, who admits that she didn’t actually drive the car and Min didn’t actually die in a car crash.

In Cicada, Jackson Lamb believes wholeheartedly that Min Harper was killed by Russian spies, but he doesn’t quite know how it all played out just yet. Thus, he and the rest of the Slough House elite continue to investigate this Russian conspiracy in more depth. Lamb interrogates Rebecca Mitchell, the woman who was involved in the car crash that apparently killed Min. Lamb shows Rebecca images of Pashkin’s security guards and Andre, confirming their involvement. Rebecca asks for help with her future safety, now that she has snitched on the Russians. He passes her a phone number to call. It happens to be that of his favorite takeaway restaurant though. Lamb follows up on a seemingly insignificant piece of information that Rebecca gave him. She was paid for her participation in the cover-up by the Russians, at Nikolai Katinsky’s business. He breaks into Katinsky’s office, but the spy is onto him. Via a phone call, he admits that he has been hired to distract Lamb. The Slough House boss runs outside, but he’s too late, Katinsky is gone. Lamb updates Catherine Standish on the situation. Eventually, Lamb inspects this shady business firsthand. Later, Lamb and Shirley simply drive up to the mansion of their enemy. Lamb is shocked when none of Nevsky’s guards come over to interrogate him further and then he sees that the front door is open. Lamb and Shirley enter the property and find dead bodies in the kitchen. Then Shirley discovers Nevsky’s bloodied corpse by the pool. Lamb believes he is radioactive, having been pumped with some deadly material. The remnants of this are found on a table by the pool. The two agents sprint out of the mansion, worried they are now infected. Lamb thinks Pashkin has had Nevsky and his men killed, as well as Min. Later, Lamb then calls and tells Louisa to stand down. He’s going to the Park to see what the hell is going on and needs Louisa on her best behavior. She is ordered to attend the meeting tomorrow as if everything is hunky dory.

In Boardroom Politics, Lamb weasels his way into MI5, where he hunts out Nikolai’s file. Lamb is informed of the bomb scare and quips how he’s going to be filling out a lot of paperwork at this rate. He tries to contact Louisa Guy, but she isn’t picking up. Elsewhere, once Victor spills the beans, Standish contacts Lamb with an update; Nikolai Katinsky was pulling the strings, not Pashkin. Which means that Katinsky is after Lamb next. The Slough House boss thinks this is ludicrous and tells her to warn Marcus and Louisa instead.

In Old Scores, Nikolai and Lamb have long overdue chat. Nikolai asks for Lamb to return to his office for a friendly conversation, but Lamb knows Nikolai wants him dead because he’s already murdered one of his men. The ex-KGB spy says that one drop of radioactive poison killed Nevsky, imagine what he could do with a bomb of the stuff. That’s enough of a threat for Lamb, who offers to meet with Nikolai at the Russian’s offices. Eventually, Lamb and Nikolai meet up for their final showdown. Both veterans greet each other with raised guns. Lamb admits that he knew the threat was a lie, but he had to see it in person, with his own eyes. Lamb is impressed though, Nikolai had them all fooled for years. What Nikolai really wants to know, is about the man Lamb killed. It is then revealed that Charles Partner was an undercover agent for the opposition. Lamb killed Charles because he was a traitor. Nikolai is sad that Charles was killed and Lamb mourns for Dickie. The dying Russian has one last question, was he responsible for Charles’ death? Thus, Lamb, admits that he was the one that slipped up, not Nikolai. The Russian spy then confesses to wanting revenge for Charles’ death and he attempted to professionally humiliate Lamb and his employees first. Lamb quips that the gang is already disgraced, what more can he do to them? Meanwhile, the streets of London are teeming with panicked protesters and office workers, fleeing the looming attack. Standish heads in the opposite direction, towards the danger. Lamb has ordered her to go and save Marcus and Louisa, who are trapped in the targeted building.
