Slow Horses

Lamb arrives at Catherine Standish’s flat. He tells her that everyone associated with Slough House is in trouble. She dismisses the news about Jed Moody’s death, though she is upset that Sid has been injured.

They are intercepted by Duffy. Spider Webb is driving, and Duffy informs the two that they will be taken to Regent’s Park for questioning. Loy has falsely confessed that the slow horses are responsible for the operation. Lamb sneezes and asks Catherine for a tissue. She reaches into her bag and pulls out a gun she finds that Lamb had earlier placed there. She aims it at Spider. Duffy and Spider exit the car.

The group reconvene at Blake’s grave. White and Loy have been picked up by Regent’s Park, but River, Min, Louisa, and Ho gather to wait. Lamb and Catherine quickly appear. Lamb confirms River’s earlier suspicions: The kidnapping was an op headed by Taverner. Now that Black has been killed and Hassan is in mortal danger, she is pinning the blame on Slough House. Worse, because she has been running the operation in secret, she has not informed the police of the whereabouts of the kidnappers or the hostage. Now that Alan Black is dead, nobody knows where the hostage has been taken.
