00:00You took your time.
00:02Got a little tied up mingling with the locals.
00:04Pay the man bond.
00:05Here we are.
00:07Cash and crypto.
00:08Bavma thanks you for your contribution.
00:12Go on through.
00:14Make it a place where you live.
00:16If it sparks you don't.
00:18Your choice.
00:20I'm trying, okay?
00:21I don't know what's wrong.
00:30Fix it.
00:32Or I'll start pulling pieces off.
00:33You want it done right or fast?
00:35I'm one wire away from blowing everything up.
00:45Follow me.
00:46Please.
00:55Quite the operation your boss has here.
00:57Whatever your needs, my friend.
00:59We have it.
01:00If you want, we can help you overthrow a small country.
01:04At the right price, of course.
01:06Tempting.
01:13Would you look at that?
01:15My kind of trouble.
01:16She certainly is.
01:18Jaguar Type 00.
01:21Part of Bavma's special collection.
01:23A new model in a room full of relics.
01:26Ring any bells, Greenway?
01:28Keep talking like that.
01:30You might wind up buried out here.
01:32Worth it.
01:33Oh, yeah.
01:43You'd think a place like this would have been shut down by now.
01:45Control the chaos.
01:47Control the flow, Bond.
01:48Keep Palmer in play.
01:50Keep Palmer in play.
01:50You always have eyes on the game.
01:57Ben.
01:58Over here.
02:08Take a look at those markings.
02:10Serbian.
02:12You weren't kidding when you said Bavma's connections ran deep.
02:15That's why MI6 continues to let him operate.
02:19Here we go.
02:20Welcome, ladies and gentlemen.
02:24Have a seat and get comfortable so we can begin the auction.
02:28While some of you have been here before, I see some fresh faces amongst our buyers.
02:35So, humor me while I go over our simple yet strict rules.
02:41One.
02:42All bids must pass through the polygraph.
02:46Two.
02:47Should you fail the polygraph, you will be removed from the auction and forbidden to enter Aleph again.
02:56Well, at least we know what the polygraph is for.
02:58Shhh.
02:58Lastly.
03:00Bids are bound by blood.
03:03There are no retractions.
03:06Now.
03:07A quick technical trial.
03:10Place your hand on the polygraph machine in front of you.
03:15The truth, if you please.
03:17Miss Pakhani.
03:19I have to do this guy.
03:21Just tell him I need a drone.
03:23Your turn, Mr. Konyevich.
03:26I am Nikola Konyevich.
03:28Good.
03:30Mr. Lyok.
03:31If you please.
03:33Jan Le.
03:34I represent the Three Storms clan.
03:37And now to one of our newer faces.
03:41Go ahead please, Mr.
03:44Easy now.
03:50Call me James.
03:52I'm just here for the hors d'oeuvres and free drinks.
03:55Dial it down.
03:57Excellent.
03:58Now that we've gotten the formalities out of the way.
04:02We begin with an opening bid from our new guests.
04:06Gentlemen.
04:07The bid is yours.
04:16Three million US dollars.
04:18A cash bid.
04:20A cash bid.
04:22I'm afraid this isn't that kind of auction, my friend.
04:26You have forfeited your opening position and the bid is now free.
04:33Safe passage to, from and through all of our harvons.
04:38No inspections.
04:40No questions.
04:42Complete and utter diplomatic cover.
04:45Plus private jet with armed escort for Bhavna.
04:50For the rest of his life.
04:51Now that is a real bid.
04:55Anyone care to counter Miss Bahan's offer?
05:00Safe passage is useful, but only temporary.
05:04I offer permanents.
05:06My organization will help fund and implement the next stage of infrastructure in Aleph.
05:13A thrilling prospect indeed.
05:17Anyone care to raise the stakes?
05:21Two offers on the table.
05:23I don't have to tilt the table.
05:24Anyone care to beat them?
05:25Sabotage.
05:26The next offer.
05:27You read my mind.
05:28I offer the next election in Mauritania.
05:32The ruling seat will be delivered and gift wrapped.
05:36I also offer four European Union ambassadors.
05:41All of which have been compromised, of course.
05:44Well, that hasn't happened in quite some time.
05:48What is this?
05:49Something's wrong with this thing.
05:51And Mr. Leong, I'm very surprised.
05:55You may leave.
05:56Time to go, Mr. Leong.
05:59What's this, sir?
06:00Mr. Leong, you are making a scene.
06:06We are done.
06:08You have no idea what you're doing.
06:10We will not accept this.
06:12There will be consequences.
06:14Can't do that again.
06:16Apologies for Mr. Leong's transgression.
06:19Sometimes emotions do tend to run high when the stakes are raised.
06:23Would anyone else care to make a bid?
06:27Going once.
06:29How's your chance?
06:30Going twice. Anyone?
06:32Scorpius and all affiliated organizations expunged from a left.
06:37Now that is what I call a wonderful offer.
06:41The floor remains open, although the bar has certainly been raised.
06:47Surely someone has something to offer.
06:52From this, therefore, every weapon used by my soldiers,
06:57Drone, Vita Rifle, Drone, or Artillery, will come only from the hands of government.
07:04Exclusive contract with unlimited volume.
07:07I like it. Going once. Going twice.
07:12We're out of time.
07:13Three decades of MI6 intel.
07:17What?
07:19Always do the unexpected, right?
07:20Interesting.
07:23How do you propose delivering this intelligence?
07:27By giving you him.
07:28It would appear the honeymoon is over.
07:31One TX-1000 Marauder Drone sold to the boldest and newest buyer in the room.
07:40And I swear to...
07:42Thank you, everyone.
07:44Enjoy the rest of your stay here in Eleth.
07:48And you two gentlemen, please, join me over here if you will.
07:58Congratulations on your purchase, gentlemen. One of my men will be with you shortly to settle the bill.
08:05The Englishman. Where is he?
08:08You'll need to be a little more specific than that.
08:11The ex-spy Bhavna's hiding. Where is he?
08:16Look around. You have no power here.
08:22That man murdered three of our agents in cold blood.
08:26Bhavna broke the rules. He's finished.
08:30Your king's reign is over.
08:33Nice try.
08:34Pay attention, Picard. You only have one choice to make here.
08:38You could stay with Bhavna.
08:40But you'll go down with him and you'll watch as we turn this whole place to dust.
08:45Or...
08:46You could take the throne.
08:48And our superiors will continue to turn a blind eye to all that goes on here.
08:57Or don't you want to be king?
09:11Throw in box seats at the menu and we have a deal.
09:16Stratford End. Best we can do.
09:18Ah, we both know that's not true.
09:22Fine.
09:24Done.
09:28Well...
09:30It appears you have some sway after all.
09:34You coming?
09:35Again...
09:35I'll...
09:39I'll talk more with them...
09:41Not just I should go with those...
