FX presents

"Tyrant."

Previously on "Tyrant"

This land you betrayed me for, your own brother,

I give it to you.

Jamal!

You found him in the desert?

Get your father.

And don't talk about this to anyone.

The sons of Tal Jiza will become soldiers

in the Army of the Caliphate.

I thought this wasn't my fight.

Come back, okay?

If you don't...

- Sammy, hold this tourniquet. - Please just let me die.

Dad, that's not just some prisoner.

- Sammy... you know who that is? - I know who it is.

The man you know as Khalil,

the man who's been fighting the Caliphate

inside Ma'an...

that's Barry.

It's over.

The ICC is issuing a warrant of arrest

for five counts of crimes against humanity, Jamal.

It's what you always wanted, isn't it?

This job, this power.

No, it really isn't.

Don't fool yourself, brother.

What did Jamal say?

It's over. He's stepping down.

Crowd's been gathering all morning.

They all started chanting your name,

calling for you to be the next President.

Bassam! Bassam! Bassam!

The chemical weapon in question

were deployed without my knowledge or consent.

I did not

commit this crime.

Therefore,

why should I step down?

Second drawer, I believe.

If you're looking for a spatula.

You are everywhere, Aziz.

It's my job to anticipate your every need.

Mm. You should be asleep.

It's 5:00 a.m.

We all should.

Tomorrow's speech...

it's not exactly, um... done.

Then focus on that.

There are people who can make an omelet for you, Mr. President.

"Mr. President."

Still sounds so strange.

You should get used to it.

Call you as soon as I know anything.

Where's Sammy?

Rami assigned him a security detail. He's safe.

Barry, I know you want to go with your brother,

but I think you should stay.

Hey.

There's no news.

He's been in there for over an hour.

Bassam?

Things are moving very quickly.

We need to get you back to the Palace.

This is no longer a negotiated political process.

In one form or another, there's about to be a coup in Abuddin.

Now, it can be orderly or it can be very unpleasant,

but you need to get on television tonight,

and you tell this country you're in control.

Look, I know this is more than you wanted to do,

but look how close we are

to achieving everything you fought for.

Take charge now, or someone else will.

Tell Rami I want to meet with him in an hour.

Oh, there you are.

- Help me with this. - What are you doing?

Your father's computer, his records, bank accounts.

I don't want any of it getting into the wrong hands.

I... I can't do this right now.

I have to see Nusrat.

Ahmed, listen to me.

I need you to stay focused.

The people and the Army will support Bassam,

but there will always be the person who comes next.

And that could be us.

I know power comes before people in this family,

but I'm not going to abandon...

Ahmed, for God's sake!

This is a dangerous time.

- Work with me. - She's still my wife.

Yes, but she also tried to assassinate your father,

and such women do not become first lady.

And that was her choice.

What are you doing here?

You no longer have the right to be in this office.

How dare you. This is our home.

Arrest them.

Of course now all of you appear like cockroaches.

Sir, this way.

You will answer to me for this, Colonel.

You are wrong, madame.

This time, it's the other way around.

He'll be here in an hour.

He's ready to talk.

Rami, I need to know there's not gonna be any problems here.

I know you had presidential aspirations yourself.

- The Army will support your husband. - Thank you.

I'll have television cameras set up in the office.

General.

Colonel Maloof.

Do you wish to explain yourself?

Explain your treason, Colonel.

General Said, sir, I speak for the officers of your Army

when I say that you are our commander

and we will follow you and whatever government you form.

But only if the enemies of the State

are finally and properly punished.

"Enemies of the State"?

I risked my life to bring my husband to justice.

We had a deal, General.

Me, you and the Arab League.

Your husband reneged.

You delivered no one. There's no deal.

Colonel, you do not speak for me or for the Army.

Sir, I realize I'm exceeding my authority here.

This is the price

for your officers' cooperation.

I wouldn't celebrate too quickly.

You're married to an Al Fayeed.

One day they will come for you, too.

Tyrant S03E01 "Spring"

Sync and corrected by Gianluca Belfiglio

You have our full support.

Under these conditions?

That my extended family is arrested?

For what crimes?

They ruled together.

They got rich off the suffering of this country together.

A court can set them free, but not us, not you.

Bassam, your brother...

my father... is still alive.

He could live.

But that makes for a very dangerous situation.

Those who might be unhappy

with what we do could make things difficult and bloody

if left free to oppose us.

I'm ready.

Mr. President?

We're going live.

Three, two, one.

People of Abuddin...

my brother is in surgery.

Whether he will live or die,

we do not know.

That is in God's hands.

But he will no longer be able to carry out

his duties as your President.

Nor is it acceptable that he should.

Starting as of this moment,

I am, with the support

of the Abuddinian military,

assuming the office

of President of Abuddin.

I saw my sister die at the hands of Jamal Al Fayeed.

My friends at the hands of the Caliphate.

I cried too many times.

I waited for this day and never believed it would come.

But Bassam Al Fayeed has kept his promise.

Bassam is promising us democracy.

The same thing his brother promised us a year ago.

But our holy book does not teach us to be fools.

25 years ago, Abuddin turned away

from God's law towards man's.

Now one Al Fayeed replaces another.

And they call it progress.

This is a holy place!

Sheik Al-Qadi,

you are under arrest.

We have a list of men who will come with us.

Under whose orders?

By order of the general of the Army, General Said.

And mine, as governor of Ma'an Province.

And what are the charges?

Treason.

Encouraging your followers to support the Caliphate

- during their occupation. - This is nonsense.
