\u2013 who he thought had died decades ago \u2013 on the phone, who tells him to lead a different life. Kostas decides to listen to the hallucination of his brother instead and tries to kill Luci. Elliott (Jamie Dornan) grabs Lachlan\u2019s (Damon Herriman) gun but there\u2019s a struggle.<\/p>\n<p>Kosta is fatally shot and Lachlan drives off in search of his wife, while Luci takes a shot to the stomach. Elliott puts her in his car with the bag of money and drives her to a hospital, however she dies before he can get there.<\/p>\n<p>Elliott calls Helen (Danielle Macdonald) for help, however Ethan answers and tells him to leave her alone. Helen tells her fianc\u00e9e that she wants to go to Elliott\u2019s aid before Ethan (Greg Larsen) threatens to break up with her if she calls him back. She tells Ethan that if he really loved her, then he wouldn\u2019t keep making ultimatums and ends their engagement before calling Elliott.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Lachlan tracks down his wife, kills Kosta\u2019s men and sets her free. He then goes to the police and blames Helen for Rodney Lammon\u2019s (Kamil Ellis) death, showing officers footage of her enjoying Elliott\u2019s company in a Mexican restaurant and telling them she was in cahoots with Elliott.<\/p>\n<p>Just before Helen sets off to find Elliott, she sees new reports revealing they\u2019re both wanted for murder, with Lachlan leading the investigation, and the pair decide to go on the run together. When they\u2019re chased down by police, they take customers of a restaurant hostage as Helen asks a friend of her\u2019s to find evidence of Lachlan\u2019s corruption.<\/p>\n<p>To buy time, Elliott asks the hostage negotiator to bring him Lena Pascal \u2013 a woman he keeps seeing in the fragmented memories that return to him. Just as the police begin to swarm, Helen receives a photo, taken by a speed camera, of Lachlan driving away after killing Lammon with Elliott hand-cuffed in the passenger seat \u2013 contradicting his version of events.<\/p>\n<p>The police arrest Lachlan, Helen is let free and Elliott is at the police station awaiting bail when Elena Pascal visits him, having been brought there from Adelaide. She reveals that she was a trafficking victim of Elliott\u2019s, having been coerced into smuggling bags of heroin into Australia in her stomach which were then cut out of her by one of Elliott\u2019s colleagues.<\/p>\n<p>She tells him that he would make her smile at him to rehearse acting relaxed at the airport, which explains why his memories show her looking happy, and that he made two other women smuggle heroin however they died after the bags exploded in their stomachs.<\/p>\n<p>Disgusted with who he really is, Elliott leaves the bag of Kosta\u2019s money to Sue (whose husband was killed by Billy) (Genevieve Lemon) and tries to kill himself by crashing his car. He wakes up in hospital, this time remembering who he is, and Helen visits him to say that she wants nothing to do with him after reading his police report.<\/p>\n<p>After his release from hospital, Elliott drinks a bottle of vodka and swallows a handful of pills, while Helen speaks to her coworker, who tells her that while she can\u2019t forgive Elliott for what he did in his previous life, everyone deserves a second chance. Just as Elliott has resigned himself to death, he receives a text from Helen, an emoji of a burrito, and smiles.<\/p>\n<h2>Who is Jamie Dornan\u2019s character The Man?<\/h2>\n<div class=\"&quot;image-handler__container\" image-handler__container--aspect=\"\" style=\"&quot;padding-bottom:\" calc=\"\"> <picture><source media=\"&quot;(max-width:\" data-srcset=\"&quot;https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2021\/12\/the-tourist-jamie-dornan-fa09f9b-e1641206058917.jpg?webp=true&amp;quality=90&amp;resize=298%2C199,\" https:=\"\" type=\"&quot;image\/webp&quot;\"><source media=\"&quot;(max-width:\" data-srcset=\"&quot;https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2021\/12\/the-tourist-jamie-dornan-fa09f9b-e1641206058917.jpg?quality=90&amp;resize=298%2C199,\" https:=\"\" type=\"&quot;image\/jpeg&quot;\"><source media=\"&quot;(max-width:\" data-srcset=\"&quot;https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2021\/12\/the-tourist-jamie-dornan-fa09f9b-e1641206058917.jpg?webp=true&amp;quality=90&amp;resize=354%2C236&quot;\" type=\"&quot;image\/webp&quot;\"><source media=\"&quot;(max-width:\" data-srcset=\"&quot;https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2021\/12\/the-tourist-jamie-dornan-fa09f9b-e1641206058917.jpg?quality=90&amp;resize=354%2C236&quot;\" type=\"&quot;image\/jpeg&quot;\"><source media=\"&quot;(max-width:\" data-srcset=\"&quot;https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2021\/12\/the-tourist-jamie-dornan-fa09f9b-e1641206058917.jpg?webp=true&amp;quality=90&amp;resize=403%2C269&quot;\" type=\"&quot;image\/webp&quot;\"><source media=\"&quot;(max-width:\" data-srcset=\"&quot;https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2021\/12\/the-tourist-jamie-dornan-fa09f9b-e1641206058917.jpg?quality=90&amp;resize=403%2C269&quot;\" type=\"&quot;image\/jpeg&quot;\"><source media=\"&quot;(max-width:\" data-srcset=\"&quot;https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2021\/12\/the-tourist-jamie-dornan-fa09f9b-e1641206058917.jpg?webp=true&amp;quality=90&amp;resize=553%2C369&quot;\" type=\"&quot;image\/webp&quot;\"><source media=\"&quot;(max-width:\" data-srcset=\"&quot;https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2021\/12\/the-tourist-jamie-dornan-fa09f9b-e1641206058917.jpg?quality=90&amp;resize=553%2C369&quot;\" type=\"&quot;image\/jpeg&quot;\"><source media=\"&quot;(min-width:\" data-srcset=\"&quot;https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2021\/12\/the-tourist-jamie-dornan-fa09f9b-e1641206058917.jpg?webp=true&amp;quality=90&amp;resize=619%2C413&quot;\" type=\"&quot;image\/webp&quot;\"><source media=\"&quot;(min-width:\" data-srcset=\"&quot;https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2021\/12\/the-tourist-jamie-dornan-fa09f9b-e1641206058917.jpg?quality=90&amp;resize=619%2C413&quot;\" type=\"&quot;image\/jpeg&quot;\"><source media=\"&quot;(min-width:\" data-srcset=\"&quot;https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2021\/12\/the-tourist-jamie-dornan-fa09f9b-e1641206058917.jpg?webp=true&amp;quality=90&amp;resize=406%2C271&quot;\" type=\"&quot;image\/webp&quot;\"><source media=\"&quot;(min-width:\" data-srcset=\"&quot;https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2021\/12\/the-tourist-jamie-dornan-fa09f9b-e1641206058917.jpg?quality=90&amp;resize=406%2C271&quot;\" type=\"&quot;image\/jpeg&quot;\"><source media=\"&quot;(min-width:\" data-srcset=\"&quot;https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2021\/12\/the-tourist-jamie-dornan-fa09f9b-e1641206058917.jpg?webp=true&amp;quality=90&amp;resize=555%2C370&quot;\" type=\"&quot;image\/webp&quot;\"><source media=\"&quot;(min-width:\" data-srcset=\"&quot;https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2021\/12\/the-tourist-jamie-dornan-fa09f9b-e1641206058917.jpg?quality=90&amp;resize=555%2C370&quot;\" type=\"&quot;image\/jpeg&quot;\"><img class=\"&quot;wp-image-1542659\" align=\"\" size-landscape_thumbnail=\"\" image-handler__image=\"\" image-handler__image--aspect=\"\" no-wrap=\"\" js-lazyload=\"\" data-src=\"&quot;https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2021\/12\/the-tourist-jamie-dornan-fa09f9b-e1641206058917.jpg?quality=90&amp;resize=619%2C413&quot;\" width=\"&quot;620&quot;\" height=\"&quot;413&quot;\" alt=\"&quot;Jamie\" dornan=\"\" in=\"\" the=\"\" tourist=\"\" title=\"&quot;Jamie\"\/><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/picture><\/div> <div class=\"&quot;caption-hold&quot;\"> <span class=\"&quot;im-image-caption&quot;\"> <i>BBC\/Stan\/HBO Max &amp;

He hid the money at a place in the Outback, hid his phone in a koala at a petrol station with the location of the money on for Marco to find and then drove away. This was when Billy ran him off the road and he lost his memory.<\/p>\n<p>We later learn that Billy found out about Marco tipping Elliott off and subsequently buried him in a barrel underground \u2013 and so it was Marco who had been calling Elliott, asking him to rescue him.<\/p>\n<p>As for who blew up the diner, Luci had planted the explosives as Marco had asked to meet up with her there and she didn\u2019t know if she could trust him.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Tourist is available to stream on BBC iPlayer.
