00:00In November 2006, former Russian spy Alexander Litvinenko sat down for afternoon tea in a London
00:06hotel. Within hours, he was dying from the inside out. The tea contained polonium-210,
00:11one of the deadliest substances on Earth. Litvinenko had betrayed the FSB, Russia's secret
00:16police. He'd exposed their corruption and fled to London. Now they'd found him. As the poison
00:22spread through his body, Litvinenko left a trail of radiation across London. Every place he touched,
00:27every person he met, contaminated. His hair fell out in clumps. His organs began shutting down one by
00:33one. For three weeks, he lay dying in agony. Doctors couldn't understand what was killing him. On his
00:39deathbed, Litvinenko accused Vladimir Putin directly. Investigators followed the radioactive trail
00:44backward, through hotels, restaurants, airplanes. The poison led them to two Russian agents who'd
00:50flown in from Moscow. But polonium-210 doesn't exist in nature. It can only be made in nuclear
00:56reactors. This wasn't just murder, it was a message from the Kremlin. Cross Russia and
01:01they'll hunt you anywhere on Earth.
