Robert poses as an MI-5 agent, and asks three peopleSophie, Mae and Ianfor assistance in capturing members of the IRA. After a few months of training, he suddenly wakes them in the middle of the night and drives them away saying they would have to leave their old lives behind, as their situation has been compromised. A lawyer, Alice, meets a luxury car salesman, Robert Hansen, who seduces her. While they stay at her home, Alice notices a call to Robert's phone from a Sophie, but Robert picks it up saying it's his dad. Feeling suspicious, Alice hires a
private investigator to check on his name, which brings up nothing. Alice confronts Robert about the lack of credit history under his name, when Robert confesses that his real last name is Freegard, and that he is an undercover MI-5 agent who supervises his employee Sophie. Robert meets Alice's parents for lunch and tells them about starting a new business leasing cars. Although a bit unhappy at first, her parents finally approve of the entrepreneurship plans. Meanwhile, Robert tells Sophie that she has secured a position on the field officer training program. He then takes Sophie to a secluded place, gives her a phone for incoming calls only, and orders her to stay there until contacted. The investigator comes back to Alice and tells her he has dug up some past court judgments against Robertthat he was stalking and harassing a Julie Harper. Alice calls Mrs. Harper and learns that Robert had asked Julie to borrow £20,000. When confronted again by Alice with new evidence, Robert claims Julie drank a lot and disappeared the night before the wedding. Alice then gets a call from a man called Paul Jones who says he got her number from Julie Harper's mother, and that Robert kidnapped his daughter Sophie. Alice meets with Sophie's parents, who say she called them occasionally to inform them that she was safe, but they could tell that she was brainwashed, because she asked for her share of the inheritance£300,000only to promptly disappear again. One day, Alice wakes up to find Robert gone, and an email from her bank saying their joint business account has been closed. The policeman assigned to the case, Sonny, is unable to tell if a crime has been committed since it was a joint account, but decides to investigate anyway. As soon as Robert receives a phone call from Sonny, he throws the phone into a lake. Sonny promises to check on Mae Hansen. Robert is now with an American woman called Jenny Jackson, an academic in psychology. He again spins his story about being an MI-5 agent and asks her to join the organization as an intelligence analyst. She tells him about her student loan of $80,000, which he suggests should be cleared before applying for her new job, hence she requests her parents to wire her that amount. While waiting for the money transfer, he throws her medications into the fire, making her ill. Her father calls to tell Robert that the money has been transferred. Sonny and Alice meet with Mae, who now has two daughters from Robert. Alice tells Mae that Rob may be in danger due to his work, so they should try to warn him. Mae gives Alice a notebook containing some phone numbers. Sonny and Alice then visit the American embassy and hear about Jenny, who is now with Robert and has contacted her parents for money. They begin calling the numbers in the notebook taken from Mae's home, and Sophie answers. After locating her, they track Robert down to where is currently staying with Jenny. Robert makes a final plea by telling Alice he still loves her, but tries to flee in his car, only to be stopped by Sophie ramming into it with another car. Robert is caught and sentenced, while Alice starts a new business leasing luxury cars. ==Cast==
