This is
President Jeffrey Michener.

As usual, I speak to you
from the historic Old Courthouse

in St. Louis, Missouri.

On this, the 154th day of my presidency,

I'm happy to announce
that our American reconstruction plan

continues on pace.

In fact, if you're hearing me

over an electric radio
in the four corner states

or seeing me
for the first time on television,

you already know
that the Johnson hydroelectric plant

is back online,

providing consistent power
to much of the Southwest.

And from all over the country,

we have more reports
of Americans joining forces

to fix the broken pieces of our nation.

Yes, the American spirit
is alive and well.

Today, many of you will receive
your newly printed ration cards

to be used for all essential purchases.

A reminder. These are not
a replacement for US currency.

We continue to work with the banks

to ensure everyone has access
to their money and their property.

But until our productivity
can keep up with demand,

these cards will ensure

citizens are granted
equal access to available goods.

We ask for your continued patience
and your help with this implementation.

Dr. Rachel Scott's murder
came as a shock to us all,

but she died knowing that she brought life
back to this great nation.

And her sacrifice will not be forgotten.

This St. Louis radio hub will continue
to bring you updates and information,

along with your local stations
as they come online.

Of course, I'll be back tomorrow
to speak with you directly.

Until then, I thank you
for your contributions and your courage.

This project will succeed because of you.

May God bless you
and the United States of America.

Hello, my little angel.

- Try it now.
- Hey, Danny?

Danny, can you hear me?

Kara, can you...

Danny, are you there?

Kara.

- Nothing. Still nothing.
- Kara, nothing's coming through here.

- Can you see me?
- Mom, here.

Danny, if you can hear me,
I'm here with our son.

Tell him, Frankie almost
rolled over yesterday.

He didn't almost roll over yesterday.

Yes, he did. He's so smart, Danny.
He's so smart.

We're gonna try to find Daddy, okay?

Problem's not on your end.

The voice comes over okay,
but when we try to send video,

there's something jamming up the line,
like another signal crowding the channel.

- Kara.
- Can't tell what it is.

Danny.

Kara, nothing's coming through here.
Can you see me?

If you can hear me, will you

tell Frankie that Daddy loves him?

And that I can't wait to meet him.

- Can you hear us, Danny?
- We were so close.

Kara.

- Yeah, I'll keep trying. Sorry.
- Okay. Frankie.

Daddy's coming home soon, okay?

Frankie, I love you guys.

You just couldn't wait to come out,
could you, Frankie?

See you, Frankie.

Diaz, when did you get the booster?

- I don't know, sir. About four months ago.
- Exactly.

Which means you are no longer contagious.

Take it easy with the boxes.

- Precious cargo.
- Sorry, sir.

Not good, Seaman Apprentice Diaz.
Not good at all.

Aren't you curious
as to how heavy these boxes are?

See this? E-5, my friend.

I do the pointing now, not the lifting.

Lieutenant, Lincoln's gassed up the helo.

She's carrying the.22mm and Hellfires.
Let's hope we won't need them.

The only thing
we'll be dropping on Vietnam

is a whole lot of the cure.

Amen to that.

Captain's on the bridge.

Master Chief, how we looking?

All squared away, sir.
Wind's light out of the southwest.

- Probably an easy 9-iron to the green.
- Outstanding.

OOD, bring us around 2-7-0, please.

Helmsman, steady course 2-7-0.

Right standard rudder,
steady course 2-7-0.

Aye.

I want to watch the sunset.

- Good morning, sir.
- Mrs. Green, how are things?

Actually hit a little traffic
coming in today.

That's a good sign.

Took the liberty of picking up
your new rations book.

- They did a good job.
- Yes, sir.

It's a nice way to honor her memory,

though hardly enough, considering.

No.

Not enough.

President Peng hoarded the cure,
kept it for the Chinese,

and is now letting the virus mutate

and burn itself across Japan
and probably the rest of Asia.

You don't know that, Alex.

Tom.

I'm sorry, sir.

Did I hear you right?

The virus has mutated?

Captain, we're getting word
from the southern islands of Japan

that suggests the doses were ineffective
against the virus.

The death rate is skyrocketing.

Dr. Scott said the virus cannot mutate.
She was very clear about that.

We're gonna need some proof if we plan...

Sir, we have two destroyers
returning to Okinawa from Amur Bay.

They can be on the ground right away.

We sent Peng a million doses
two months ago.

He just never delivered them to Japan.

By the time our ships got there
with the cure, it was too late.

You think Peng's making a play for Asia,
using the cure as leverage?

That's exactly what I think.

Listen, Peng is a thug, plain and simple.

We've already had reports
of the Chinese bombing North Vietnam.

Unconfirmed.
Before we throw Peng overboard,

let's remember that we don't have
any alternative partner in the region.

For now, Peng is our best hope.

Unfortunately, Allison's right.

Sir, Nathan James is one day from Vietnam.

They're carrying enough cure
to cover the coast,

parts of Laos and Cambodia.

It was a good idea to send them, Tom.

China can be their next stop.

One ship can't get that cure
across that continent.

We need Peng,

which is why I've arranged
a summit in Hong Kong.

Peng will be there,

along with leaders
from what's left of Asia.

I think that's a good idea.

VP's in South America.

Alex is the Secretary of Foreign Affairs.
You sending him?

I'd like you to go.

Me?

Without a Secretary of Defense,
you're the best choice.

You can speak to the strategic importance
of spreading the cure,

the risks, the benefits,

and, well, it doesn't hurt
that you're an international celebrity.

My Chinese isn't what it used to be,
and it used to be awful.

We have an asset in-country
that can help ease your path.

But you need to make it clear
that we mean business.

If the virus has really mutated,

we're looking at another pandemic.

And without Dr. Scott...

You can let Peng know

that if he won't be the kind of partner
this world needs,

we will find and support
a leader inside his own country who will.

Yes, sir.

Sir, you've got an incoming over Navy Red.

This is Nathan James actual. Over.

Captain, this is
your Chief of Naval Operations.

How's my ship?

Some would say she's never been better.

Although I'm still getting used
to running the ship

from the starboard side of the bridge.

Look to the right
and there's nobody there,

you know it's all up to you.

Yeah, I'm really beginning
to understand that.

About that other project
I've been working on.

You should know
I haven't stopped looking for them.

The second I find anything,
you'll be the first to know.

Appreciate that.

Hey, you're not calling from home.

Last-minute trip.

I'm headed to your neck of the woods.

Maybe when I'm done,
I'll arrange a formal INSURV,

see just how good our ship is looking.

We'll have sideboys standing by.

Oh, and, Mike,

strange forces at work
in your part of the world.

Until I understand them myself,
watch your six.

Roger. Nathan James out.

Just so you know, as of five seconds ago,
we are now in Chinese airspace.

Any call you make won't be secure

and will most likely
be intercepted by Peng.

Well, you're gonna change all that,
right, Valkyrie?

Getting close to Vietnam.

Need to pick up our local pilot
to guide us in.

Subsurface, what do you hear?

Dozens of small vessels in the area, sir.

From the spin of their engines,
I'd say nothing larger than a 50-footer.

Small fishing boats,
some outboard engines.

A lot of reports about pirates
running swarm attacks.

Even on military ships,
10, sometimes 20 on one.

Ain't nothing Cobra team
can't handle, big brother.

- Is that right?
- Yeah.

You know, just 'cause
y'all are American heroes

doesn't mean you're bulletproof.

Wait, did I ever tell you
about that time I got shot?

Bang. Right in the chest.

- Bounced right off me.
- Why don't you...

Why don't you go do
some push-ups or something?

Let the thinking folks do their jobs.

Get out of here.

Mr. Binh says
drop your speed to three knots

and adjust your rudder five degrees right.

OOD, drop to three knots.

- Turn starboard five degrees.
- OOD, aye.

Helm, all ahead one-third to
three knots, right five degrees rudder,

- steady course 3-3-0.
- All ahead,

one-third for three knots.
Aye, my rudder is right five degrees.

Water's crowded for people
without the cure.

In Vietnam, sailors, fishermen and pirates
always find a way to get the cure first.

Pirate steal everything.

Tell him to make sure we stay clear.

Any of those local tin cans
come close to us,

we'll cut them in half with the laser.

Got it. Hold on.

Oh. Laser.

Pew.

Yes, I know.

Mr. Binh wants to remind you
of the big celebration tonight.

The Vietnamese government
wishes to thank you and honor you.

Nathan James.

Governor will be there
to meet the famous crew of Nathan James.

Well, you tell him thank you.

As soon as we unload the cure,
get it where it needs to go,

we'll be there with bells on.

"With bells on."

I, forget. How do you say your name?

- Ai.
- Ai. That's a beautiful name.

You going to the party tonight?

With bells on.

What did he say?

Oh, my God!

- What the hell?
- Hello, gorgeous!

You were in Sydney.

Just a hop and a skip
to Hong Kong from there.

I can't believe it.

- Did you know?
- I ordered it.

I counted one in the tower
and two at every entrance.

And I take it the guys on bikes
aren't the only ones watching us.

No, sir.

You can expect eyes on you from now on.

What's he saying?

Oh, let me help.

Okay.

Yep. He says he doesn't like your face.

The hell should I know what he's saying?

"Captain Chandler.

"Welcome to Asia.

"It is such an honor to meet you.

"I've been waiting a long time
for this moment."

His words.

"Tom Chandler.

"Handsome, smart, noble to a fault,

"and the most stubborn sailor
you'll ever meet."

God, this guy really knows you.

Please thank him for me.

And tell him, as I recall,

there was one sailor
who was even more stubborn.

And could break your heart
without breaking a sweat.

Sasha.

Tom.

They told me our liaison
had survived for months on her own

in one of the hottest zones in Asia.

I should have figured it was you.

And you,

the man who saved the world.

I just drove the ship.

Dr. Scott performed the miracles.

Come. President Peng is waiting.

So, Chief of Naval Operations,
and they only made you Captain?

My choice.
Captain suits me better.

Humility always did look good on you.

Cooper. Your married name?

Believe it or not,

I found love after you.

Took a while.

Your decision, I'm sure.

We were barely back
from our honeymoon

when I got dispatched to Southeast Asia

to investigate
the mysterious viral outbreak.

Things fell apart pretty quickly,
and when I came up, well...

Everybody lost someone in the fire.

I was sorry to hear about Darien.

President Peng says
it is a great honor to meet you,

and he wishes to welcome you to New China.

Thank you for hosting this event.

I look forward to speaking with you.

"Wonderful. But first, we eat."

Attention on deck.

All right, all right.
Listen up.

Coast of Vietnam
has been delivered the cure

and is spreading it as we speak.

Bravo Zulu to each and every one of you.

Now... The good people
of this nation wish to thank us.

You lucky bastard.

Hey, someone's got to stand watch, my man.

So, let's remember
this is a formal goodwill visit.

They see us as beacons of hope,

and we will behave ourselves accordingly.

Understood?

Yes, ma'am.

Remember who
you're paired with. That is all.

Still the Wild West.

I want the CIC fully manned,
all eyes peeled.

Yes, sir. Rally point's set.

If you're not home by 2330,
we'll send the cavalry.

Very well.

Ship's yours, Lieutenant. Don't lose her.

- Be careful out there, baby bro.
- Oh, always.

Valkyrie.

Wolfman. Got you something.

Codes to this joint's security system.

Because I could.

What I can't figure out
is the cause of this noisy channel.

You know, it's a big house.

Once the party's over,
two people could get lost,

find themselves alone
in the dark somewhere.

Ooh, espionage and romance
in a foreign locale.

A girl could get used to that.

All of Asia is here.

Laos, Cambodia, India.

Even Vietnam showed up.

They're on the brink of war with China.

They all came to kiss the ring
and bring home the cure.

As of nine months ago,
Peng was the Minister of State Security.

He's clearly moved up in the world.

Perks of being the only one
to survive in the state bunker.

Rumor is he killed all the top leadership

and waited out the plague
next to their rotting bodies.

That's his new head of State Security.

His name, Lau Hu,

it's Mandarin for "Tiger."

I'm not worried about tigers.

I brought a wolf.

Japan's a no-show.

Makes me wonder
if there was anyone left to sit.

So the rumors are true,
about the virus mutation?

You're our man in Havana.
I was hoping you would tell me.

Information is hard to come by
in Hong Kong, even for me.

And Peng will talk about everything
but the elephant in the room.

Well, let's poke the elephant.

To our host,

President Peng.

"And to you, Captain Chandler."

"The man who brought the cure
to the world."

Hi.

I came to China with more.

But I wonder, Mr. President,

if I haven't done enough.

"I'm afraid I don't understand."

Are you aware of the Scott Effect?

It's a scientific formula
used to determine

the critical number of people needed

to receive the contagious cure
for it to spread effectively.

Not enough people get a dose,
cure burns out,

and whole populations
are left unprotected.

From what I hear,

that may be happening here in Asia,

which means the cure we've been sending

hasn't gotten to the people who need it.

Captain, if you are implying
that I'm not doing enough to spread...

I'm a military man, Mr. President.

I don't imply.

As I have told your president
several times,

we are doing everything we can,

but even China
cannot deliver the cure so quickly

over so large an area.

Due respect, Mr. President,

I don't think you're trying hard enough.

- Captain...
- Sure,

Hong Kong may get the cure.

Shanghai, maybe.

But what about the countries around you?

Doses of the cure languish
inside Chinese warehouses as we speak.

While the rest of Asia goes begging,

nobody here seems to be complaining.

I don't know if they're afraid of you.
I'm certainly not.

If you won't spread the cure,

my president wishes you to know
that we will.

Does China really want to be
on the wrong side of history?

Excuse me.

I have pressing business.

How'd I do?

The elephant has been poked.

I was expecting a garden party,
maybe some iced tea.

This is more like a strip club.

I guess this is their apocalyptic idea
of a goodwill visit.

More like a liberty call.

I don't want to insult anybody,
but we're out of here in 30 minutes.

- Hey, hey, hey!
- You're cute!

Lots of pretty girl!

Make that 20.

- You got a little...
- What?

Chua. Does that mean "cure"?

I don't know what you're saying,
but I'm very happy to be here.

Oh! Lasers.

Not quite the kind we use, but, yeah.
This place is great.

Before the virus, best club in town.

From here, people will rush
in every direction, spreading the cure.

You bring life back to Vietnam.

Sir?

Standard
military attack formation.

- Gator, you seeing this?
- Yes.

Their AIS codes are vastly different.

First one's a chemical tanker
flying a Liberian flag.

The second's an oiler
from Marshall Islands.

Bottom's a Chinese Class B fishing boat.

They're headed right for us.

Keep an eye on them.

Just water, Skipper.

Lieutenant, we shove off tomorrow,
gassing up at Pho Kong.

It's all ahead to Okinawa.

Be a cargo plane bound
for St. Louis there, with your name on it.

- Sir...
- Orders from the CNO.

You're going home.

Be with Kara. Meet your boy.

Thank you, sir.

Yes!

What? Got to see his boy.

What time is it?

Ten more minutes.

Surface, where are those boats?

Still in formation, sir,
but they diverted.

They're heading around the bend here,
toward Bach Dang River.

There's no way
a tanker's getting up that river.

No, but they could anchor in this inlet.

Why do that
when there's a deep water harbor here?

- I think they're hiding.
- I concur.

We should radio the CO.

No, not on an open line.

- The threat's at sea, not on land.
- Unconfirmed.

We'll send the helo to the rally point.
It can be there in 10 minutes.

ASTAC, prep the Romeo.

By not calling the CO,
we're not giving him any warning.

Ten minutes.

China is still a great nation.

President Michener hoped that you would be
our partner in this endeavor.

And we are.
But there is only so much we can do.

We are under constant attack
by warlords, pirates

and our own neighbors.

Vietnam continues to confront us
on our southern borders.

And what does America do to help, Captain?

You deliver more cure to my enemies.

I think you got the wrong idea.

Nathan James landed
in sovereign Vietnamese territory

on a humanitarian mission.

A humanitarian mission.

And yet, you deliver the cure
using a guided-missile destroyer.

So tell me, Captain,

do I really have the wrong idea?

Sabrehawk touchdown.

I have Sabrehawk touching down at the LZ.

Lincoln's on his way to the club.

You guys ready? CO wants to shove off.

- Now?
- Yeah.

- Where's Miller and Diaz?
- I haven't seen them.

Mr. Binh has a van
pulling up for us out back.

I'll find the others. I'll meet you there.

Finally, they let us come,
have a good time tonight.

- You know when I found...
- Where's Diaz?

On the verge
of a life-changing experience.

- And then I saw you...
- Get to the van.

You've got to be kidding me!

I'll come back for you, okay?
All right, don't forget me.

The bogies have stopped squawking.
They're trying to hide.

Okay, now we should alert the CO and
have him meet the helo at the rally point.

Excuse me!

No contact with the CO.

- Captain!
- Something's wrong.

Stay down.

Nathan James, do you copy?

Nathan James. Sabrehawk One.

We have no contact with Lincoln
or the landing team.

They got away.
I chased them as far as I could.

I circled back to the club.
Lincoln's dead.

So is the security detail.

My radio's dead. They must've
blasted the place with an EMP.

Mercs got the CO, XO, Miller.

I didn't see who else.

They got in a van and headed
north-northwest, then I lost them.

These guys are pros,
and they wanted hostages.

We'll call the James from the helo,

then we'll fly over
and try to find that van.

Couldn't have gotten too far.

RPG!

Sir, communications
with the helo are down.

- What do you mean, down?
- She just stopped squawking over IFF.

Not answering my hails.

We've lost contact
with everyone on the ground.

Six miles to the pier.

Let's move.

I say again, Sabrehawk One,
this is Nathan James.

Do you copy?

Sir, six miles to the rally point.

- I can take a few guys in a jeep...
- Negative.

Not when we don't know
the situation on the ground.

- Sir...
- Our entire senior leadership

is radio-silent.

Just give me a minute.

- Do you copy?
- Lieutenant.

Sabrehawk One, this is
Nathan James. Do you copy?

That's our translator.
She was at the club.

What do you think?

He's saying all the right things.

I don't believe a word of it.

What is she saying?

Vietnam is not responsible. She swears it.

- For what?
- I don't know.

Captain, there's been
an attack in Vietnam.

- The James?
- The president just broke radio silence.

He's ordered you back home.

You see, Captain.

You see now
who is the true enemy of peace.

CO, XO, Master Chief,

Mason, Rios,

Diaz, Lincoln, Miller, Riley,

Harris, DaCunha.

Carlton Burk and Green officially MIA.

Nathan James must sortie
into international waters.

We can't do that.

If there is a coordinated attack,
you are too vulnerable in the harbor.

Stand down until support can arrive.

Support? We're 8,000 miles from nowhere.

Those are CONPLAN standing orders.

You do understand
what you're asking me to do?

Sortie 25 nautical miles offshore

and check in for further instructions.

Consider this a direct order
from the Commander in Chief.

Nathan James copies all.

Roger, out.

OOD,

come to emergency full power
and get the shafts rolling.

Aye, sir. CCS, bridge,
come to emergency full power.

Attention all hands,
station the sea and anchor detail.

- So, you'll be okay?
- Yeah.

I need to stay and talk Peng out of
using this as an excuse to invade Vietnam.

Give me a few days
and I'll see you in St. Louis.

Don't do anything stupid.

Roger that.

I'm sorry our reunion was so brief.

And I'm sorry about Nathan James.

We're gonna figure this out.

What are you doing?

They didn't say they were dead.

Message from POTUS.
They didn't say the sailors were killed.

I don't know. I mean, I guess not.
We don't know what happened.

Standing orders will have Nathan James
sortie for its own security.

It'll take days for any reinforcements
to get to Hai Phong.

If our crew was taken somewhere,
being held hostage,

the trail will run cold by then.

I'm going to Vietnam.

But, how?

I'll figure out a way.

Get a message to POTUS.

Let him know we're going to hook up
with Nathan James.

- I'm going to find Slattery and his crew.
- Okay.

But wait till we're in secure airspace,
you understand?

Yeah, yeah, I get it.

Hey! Stop the plane! Open it up!

What?

Let's go.

Tom, are you insane?
That's the only plane home for weeks.

I need you to get me to Vietnam.

Holy shit.

I have contacts,
other side of town.

We can't go back into Hong Kong
without raising a few eyebrows.

You haven't changed a bit, have you?
Still the cowboy?

And you're no translator.

I saw the Glock tucked into
the back of your pants.

You must have friends
in the Chinese Air Force

or access to a less conspicuous
set of wheels.

I can make a few calls from the road.

Hey.

Hey.

Ma'am, you need to stay buckled.

You got to turn the plane around.

- What?
- You heard me.

If we turn around,
we need to call St. Louis.

You cannot call anyone.

All right? It'll be four hours
before we're in secure airspace, okay?

You got to just go back.

This is a matter of national security.

It's your ass if CNO's pissed.

I'll take the heat.

HKG, this is Cowboy 3-7-2-2.

We are declaring an in-flight emergency.

Requesting immediate landing
on runway 2-5.

Hang on.

What are they doing?

They've turned around.

Val.
