Midnight Man - The final episode
Thursday, 22 May 2008
Max suspects the death squad is being protected and funded by front man of The Validus Group, Donald Hagan (Alan Dale). The Validus Group is a hugely successful US private equity corporation and one of the world's biggest investors in the arms industry. Therefore, it is in the Group's interests to see that profitable global warfare continues.
The death squad and those behind it have so far tried to silence Max by killing his wife and framing him for her murder. However, Max is determined to expose the truth and prevent any more murders.
Alice Ross (Catherine McCormack), a former employee of Defence Concern fears her boss Daniel Cosgrave is being knowingly manipulated by Hagan and that together, they may be planning a dreadful event– possibly even a new 9/11 – to create a greater appetite for defence spending and neatly lining their pockets at the same time. However, Alice's collaboration with Max has put her in danger.
Worried that Alice has been killed or seriously injured by the death squad's leader, Blake (Reece Dinsdale), Max rushes to her aide. Alice has been left for dead, submerged in water in her bath. Max makes a desperate bid to save her.
Max believes Blake wanted a copy of the death list Alice stole from Defence Concern. Max decides the first thing they now need to do is warn Mamood Osmani, a civil rights lawyer, that he is the next target.
Next, Max must get the trophy video of the killing of Majid Danush. Together, he and Alice track down Lucy (Joanna Horton), the girlfriend of former death squad member Gary Elliott (Danny Nussbuaum). Lucy has the trophy video hidden in her daughter's teddy and Max manages to steal it. The video proves the death squad exists, but doesn't expose Defence Concern or The Validus Group.
This episode is on ITV1, Thursday 22 May 2008 @ 9-10pm.
