- Good day, Lieutenant Roberts.
- Good day, commander.

- Is the major in yet?
- No, sir, not yet.

- What are you up to there, mate?
- Emergency travel arrangements.

Tehran. Tricky place.

I had an assignment there
sometime ago.

Once those Iranian feathers
get ruffled,

they're a little tough to put down.

How did you manage, commander?

I did a fair job of it, sir.

I understand that from your record.
Major, my office.

Commander Brumby,
why don't you join us?

I want you on the first flight
to the Persian Gulf.

What is it, sir?

Iranian version
of the Gary Powers incident.

Have you lost a spy plane over Iran?

Iranians have our pilot.

Major, you'll be lead counsel

with Commander Brumby working
under you. Any problems with that?

Can't imagine
anything I'd like better, sir.

Fine with me, sir.

- Sir.
- Thank you. Good morning.

- Hey, Bud.
- Morning, sir.

Hey, where's Major Mackenzie?

She's in the admiral's office
with Commander Brumby, sir.

Did they ask me to join?

He didn't say, sir.

- What's going on?
- Lost an aircraft over Iran,

and they're going to try the pilot
for espionage.

- Navy?
- Yes, sir.

A Lieutenant Commander
Jack Keeter.

Weren't you
at the Academy with him, sir?

Yeah, he was my roommate.

Commander,
can I see you a minute?

Yes, sir. Bud, you take care of this?

Aye, aye, sir.

- Morning.
- Morning.

- You heard?
- Yes, sir.

When I became JAG
three years ago,

I gave you the first case
that came across my desk.

Keeter's F-14 went down in Cuba, sir.
He was working with the CIA then.

I assume
this is more of the same, admiral.

With Webb involved,
I'd say that's a good guess.

When do I leave, sir?

- You don't.
- Admiral--

I am assigning the case
to Major Mackenzie

and Commander Brumby.

Mac speaks Farsi.
Brumby has operated in Iran.

The Aussies have an embassy there.
We don't.

Admiral, I have known Keeter
for 17 years, sir.

He is my oldest friend.

It's a done deal, Rabb.
You're too close.

With all due respect, sir.

The admiral
is very close to his daughter,

yet that did not prevent him
from coming to her rescue in Italy.

Enter.

Excuse me, sir,
I don't mean to interfere.

For the sake of morale, I was
wondering whether you'd consider

sending Commander Rabb
instead of me, sir.

Commander,
do you feel inadequate to the task?

No, sir.

In fact, I'm sure the major and I
would make a knockout team.

But if that was my mate in jeopardy,
it'd kill me not to be there for him, sir.

Well, thank you, commander.

But I'll determine
what's best for morale at JAG.

Understood, sir.

Dismissed.

Aye, sir.

Did you put him up to this?

No, sir. I didn't even know
he had the assignment until just now.

Of course, you didn't.

- All right, commander, you go.
- Thank you, sir.

- You're dismissed.
- Aye, aye, sir.

Rabb.

Don't let your friendship
with Commander Keeter

affect your judgement.

No, sir, I won't.

The hell you won't.

I found a few citations
that might prove useful, major.

Thank you, commander.

Brumby?

Look, I don't hold a grudge.

That's good to know.

Since I hung you out
to dry defending Colonel Farrow.

What I'm saying is,
I hope you didn't back out

because you thought we couldn't
establish a working relationship.

Not at all. It's like I told the admiral.

It's Commander Rabb's messmate
who's in the hole.

He should be the one
to go after him.

I agree.

Besides,

you and I are gonna have
a great relationship, Sarah.

I said working relationship.

We believe Iran is only two years away
from nuclear capability.

Last week,
we received satellite photos

showing a reactor
in the Dasht-e-Kavir desert

may be producing
weapons-grade plutonium.

Since the data was inconclusive,

the CIA
consulted Naval Intelligence.

SECNAV agreed
to sponsor a recon mission

using the F-117 Stealth aircraft.

I thought the Navy abandoned
that programme years ago, sir.

That's what everyone
was supposed to think.

It was undergoing
carrier-suitability tests

in the Persian Gulf,
40 miles off the coast of Iran.

It was diverted to gather
infrared pictures for closer analysis.

The Iranians shot it down?

No, Lieutenant Commander Keeter
had control failure. He had to eject.

He was found in the desert
by Bedouins.

He was taken to a police station
and traded for arms.

What's his condition, sir?

According to the Iranians,
sound enough to stand trial.

It will be a kangaroo court, sir.

Iran is offering an olive branch here.

Full U.S. Consultation
in the pilot's defence.

What's the quid pro quo, Webb?

Maybe they just
wanna improve relations.

Yeah, and maybe they just
wanna embarrass us further.

Either way,
I expect you'll find out rather quickly.

Any of you familiar
with the punishment for espionage

under Iranian law?

Same as under our law, death.

The plane was catapulted
at 2005.

At 2046, Commander Keeter
shifted into stealth mode.

At 2104, he attempted to change
altitude to avoid leaving a contrail.

That's when he encountered
his first malfunction.

The yaw trim stabiliser failed.

He broke radio silence to inform us

he was having difficulty
controlling the aircraft.

- We ordered him back to the carrier.
- Did he go?

He started to. Then the second
malfunction occurred.

Automatic roll stabilisation failed.

I thought the flight stabilisation system
had quad redundancy.

It does. If one system fails,
there's three more to take over.

He had to have experienced
a drastic computer malfunction.

I'd say.

Okay, chief, shut her down.

Not bad for your first time.

Commander Keeter's last radio call

reported losing pitch control
and ejecting over Lake Namak.

Couldn't he have landed
in the desert?

With all three stabilising assists out,
that bird flies like a kite in a twister.

- What caused the failures, sir?
- We don't know.

Our technicians
are trying to replicate the problem.

So far, no luck.

Hopefully, Commander Keeter can
tell you more when you get to Tehran.

Think he could've put her down
in one piece, sir?

- Possibly.
- Pretty confident.

A good pilot has to be.

But in the F-117,
that kind of thinking can get you killed.

Can't believe my grandmother
used to dress like this.

I remember her as this cute
little old lady in leisure suits.

Well, the two agents following us
seem to think you look pretty hot.

The Tehran High Court
could have prosecuted

Lieutenant Commander Keeter
for committing an act of war.

But I've opted instead
to pursue only the espionage charge.

It's quite strong, commander.

That would be an understatement.

Minister,
the distinction you're making is moot

since both charges
are punishable by death.

If this were an Iranian military pilot
down in, let's say, Texas,

I doubt your government
would be willing to dispense of it

with just a wink and a smile.

But, hopefully, your presence here
will help to open a dialogue

between our two governments.

The best way to do that, sir,

would be to consider this incident
a mutual mistake

and to release Commander Keeter
into our custody.

Iran admits no mistake in this matter,
commander.

Your country
is developing nuclear arms, sir.

The United States is trying to prevent
a widespread Middle Eastern crisis.

You are very forward, major,
for a woman in my society.

Your Farsi is perfect.

Only the trace
of an American accent.

We in the moderate government
are trying to implement change.

But there are hard-line clerics
in this country

who do not want
that change to come.

We need something
to appease these forces.

A trade agreement, perhaps.

Or release of Iranian assets
in your country. Something.

Unfortunately, Minister Nassan,
we don't have authority to negotiate.

We are here, sir, to assure that
Commander Keeter is alive and well,

and that he stays that way.

I have always enjoyed the intricacies
of American diplomacy.

I'm no diplomat, sir.

My point exactly.

What the commander is saying

is that it would be unproductive
to discuss anything

until we've spoken
with Commander Keeter.

Well, then
why didn't he just say that?

I expected to find
Commander Keeter in a hospital.

Oh, his injuries were superficial.

From his account,

we believe the plane went down
somewhere near Lake Namak.

When we've gathered all the pieces,
we'll be sure and return them to you.

Oh, a personal correspondence
from Commander Keeter to his father.

I pass it on
as evidence that we are civilised.

This letter's been resealed, sir.

Oh, it's Iranian glue. It never sticks.

Keeter.

Keeter.

Keeter.

You told me
his wounds were superficial.

Oh, they are.

His vital signs are all acceptable.

Why is his arm in a sling?

I believe he broke that
when he ejected.

Why wasn't it set?

It's a simple fracture.

Keeter.

Martin.

No, it's Harm.

No.

Martin Baker.

Commander Keeter,
I'm Major Mackenzie.

We're here to help you.

No.

Martin Baker.

I want him in a hospital now,
and I want that arm set immediately.

He'll be fine in time for the trial.

Why are you treating him like this?

He's an accused criminal.

- Even accused criminals have rights.
- Not in Iran.

However,
as yet another gesture of goodwill...

The trial will begin as scheduled,

unless your government
is willing to discuss other options.

Keeter, we're gonna get you
out of here soon,

I promise, buddy.

No Martin Baker.

Room service.

We didn't order anything.

I believe that you did, Mr. Webb.

May I set up near the window?

As you wish.

- This chicken looks good.
- It's excellent, madam.

Would sir and madam
like to have dessert after dinner?

We have an excellent cr�me br�l�e.

That would be nice.

Soviet-type listening devices.

I am Sina Kazzari. Webb sent me.

- You work fast.
- I have to.

You are being watched
by two agents.

Yeah, we spotted them.

Can you get this letter to Webb?

Yes, we are using
the Australian Embassy as a conduit.

Encrypted in that letter
Keeter has put the coordinates

to where he landed the Stealth.

What?

Keeter's father died

a week after we graduated
from Annapolis, Mac.

The letter isn't to his dad. It's to us.

And this is not an ejection chute,
it's a drag chute.

It's used to slow
the aircraft after it lands.

Martin Baker
manufactures ejection seats.

When Keeter kept saying,
"No Martin Baker, no Martin Baker,"

he was trying to tell me--

He didn't eject.

He landed the Stealth,

and he walked away from it
to conceal it from the Iranians.

So there's an F-117
parked somewhere.

Somewhere out here.

That's Dasht-e-Kavir.

Dasht-e-Kavir?

It means big desert.

More coffee?

Hey.

My third-class year at the Academy,

it was all getting
to be too much for me.

I was 19, I didn't even remember
what my father looked like.

Didn't think I had what it took
to become a Naval officer.

That doesn't sound
like the Harmon Rabb I know.

Just before Christmas leave,
during finals, I went UA.

Before anybody even found out
I was gone,

Keeter came out, got me,
brought me back.

We'll get him out of this, Harm.

May I pick up
your room service cart?

I delivered the letter
to the Australian Embassy.

You told them Commander Keeter
probably landed in the desert?

Yes. They are trying to locate
the F-117 by satellite.

- To destroy it?
- They may have other plans.

They would like you and the major
to come to the embassy for tea

at 4:00 this afternoon.

Good day, mates.

Somehow, I knew you'd be here.

Mr. Webb needed an escort.

That'll be the day.

Good work
on getting that letter to us.

Keeter was able to encrypt
the coordinates

through a special code we taught him
for just this kind of situation.

So how are you gonna destroy
the Stealth, Webb?

We're not. We're gonna retrieve it.

Or rather, you are.

Oh, no, no, no.
I am here to help Keeter.

- The priorities have changed.
- Mine haven't.

As a pilot,
you've got two crucial qualifications:

Access and ability.

Harm's never even flown a Stealth.

Neither had Lieutenant Commander
Keeter until a month ago.

All you've gotta do
is get it off the ground.

The computer's autopilot
will take care of the rest.

The computer is the reason
it's on the ground in the first place.

The technicians on the Seahawk
believe a heat sink worked loose

from the repeated carrier landings.

That could have overheated
an integrated circuit

in the flight stabilisation system.

Replacing the circuit
should bring the system back online.

Yeah, till it overheats again.

By that time you'd be back
onboard the Seahawk.

Harm, if you go,
I can represent Keeter.

Rabb may need your Farsi skills
to reach the plane, major.

- I'll represent him.
- Too risky.

Once we go after that plane,

anyone we leave behind in Tehran
will be vulnerable.

So you're gonna sacrifice Keeter.

He knew
it was a dangerous mission.

Is that the going rate of exchange,
Webb?

A man for a plane?

Do you think you're gonna change
anything in the Tehran High Court?

His fate's already been decided.

State will do the best it can
to negotiate a deal after the trial.

You know I'm right.

Progress between our two countries
isn't likely

if your government executes
an American pilot for taking pictures.

I agree with you completely,
commander.

But your country
seems willing to sit on its hands

while this incident
heads towards a tragic end.

Harm.

When did you get here?

Two days ago, buddy.
This is our second visit.

Oh, wow, I must have
really been out of it, huh?

Do you remember
Major Mackenzie?

Wish I did.

How's your arm?

Broken.

Tell the commander and the major
of your freely-arrived-at decision.

I'm gonna plead guilty,

throw myself
on the mercy of the court.

It's a gesture that would be meaningful
to my people, commander.

If they've tortured
this confession out of you...

No torture. No pressure.

There are times you have
to recognise the truth and move on.

This is one of them.

Well, I wish you would've waited
to speak to us.

Well, I didn't know you were here.

Did you give him
my letter to my dad?

Of course.

Did Dad get it?

He did.

Then I know
I'm doing the right thing.

If Commander Rabb
flies the Stealth out,

this is the route he'll take?

That's right.

Why not fly to an air base
in Turkey or Saudi Arabia?

Too far.

They can't repair the heat sink, so
the new integrated circuit will overheat.

We believe he can reach the Seahawk
before that happens.

And if he can't?

There's always risks, Roberts.

What about Major Mackenzie?

Or haven't you thought about that?

We'll get Mac out.

And Lieutenant Commander Keeter?

This conversation is like d�j� vu.

Like I told Rabb, State will do the best
it can for Commander Keeter.

I hope Commander Rabb
chooses not to do it.

He'll do it.

Rabb knows
that national security

has to come
before the welfare of any individual.

Mr. Webb,
Commander Rabb lives by a creed:

Duty to his country,
loyalty to his friends.

You're asking him
to choose between the two.

No man should have to do that.

There has to be a better way.

The plan has changed.

Webb has decided to get
both the Stealth aircraft

and Commander Keeter out of Iran.

So the Tin Man has a heart.

A Jeep and supplies, including
a satellite radio and GPS receiver,

will be waiting in the desert
at a rendezvous I've used before.

From there, we will follow
the coordinates to the plane.

Webb didn't give me the coordinates.
He hadn't finished decoding it yet.

What does it matter?
We'll have Keeter with us.

That's right.

Here is the circuit board
and instructions on how to insert it.

Well, that's the easy part.

How do we break Keeter
out of prison?

We don't. The Iranians do.

At noon tomorrow, they will transfer
Commander Keeter

from Bakkar Prison to the Judicial
Ministry Building for trial.

We rescue him here,
from the garage.

I wore a tie like this
to my high school graduation in '81.

I guess the Iranians
are a little behind the times.

Live fast, die young,
leave a good-Iooking corpse.

Whoever said that first
is a freaking idiot.

I'm coming, all right?
Don't push, don't push.

Quick. Quick.

You never could
follow orders, partner.

All right, we got the APU generator,
satellite radio, GPS receiver.

No weapons.

Maybe Webb didn't want us
to start an international incident, huh?

We'll use the ones
we got off the guards.

All right, ladies, let's go.
I got a bird to fly.

- Was he always this cocky?
- Only around women.

So you're Iranian?

American citizen, major.

After the Shah was deposed,
my father was killed by Khomeini,

and my mother
brought me to the States.

When I joined the agency,

Webb found a way
to plant me in Tehran.

Listen, Kazzari-- Sina, right?

I'm sure this isn't a typical mission,
and thank you.

When I have a job to do,
I see it through to the end,

regardless of the consequences.

But you are welcome.

Your accent, it's barely detectable.

I set her down a hundred miles
from the coast on a dry lakebed.

About here.

Well, we should be there
by noon tomorrow.

You hungry?

Starving.
I think they fed me camel fodder.

Well, I didn't think that'd bother you.

I've seen you eat things out of the back
of the fridge I wouldn't even touch.

No guts, no glory.

Yeah, I figured Cuba
would've cured you of that philosophy.

So, Keeter,
you think that circuit board will last

until I get to the Seahawk?

It started to cook
about 30 minutes into my flight,

but you should be onboard by then.

If you're not and she starts to go,
punch out.

You didn't punch out.

Yeah, well, I had miles
of dry lake to land on.

You only have 750 feet of deck.

Don't even think of trying
without the stabilisation system.

I don't wanna be a pallbearer.

Well, what makes you think
I even want you at my funeral?

You know, Webb, it would be nice
if for once you'd spit on your own fire.

It was a Navy aircraft, admiral.

On a CIA operation.

Authorised by the SECNAV.

I've just about had it with you using
my people to clean up your messes.

I use them
because they're the best, A.J.

You don't sacrifice your best
on a suicide mission.

I agreed that, if willing,

Commander Rabb
could retrieve the aircraft,

but not stage
some damn jailbreak.

Time was too short to run it by you.

I felt we could recover
both the Stealth and the pilot.

This doesn't sound like you, Webb.
What aren't you telling me?

You know it all.

Except, sir, how Major Mackenzie
and Lieutenant Commander Keeter

are going to get out.

My man will drive Mac and Keeter
across the Turkish border.

You can't send them
across hundreds of miles of Iran

with an army after them.
They'll never get out.

I did request sending in the Marines
to extract them,

but SECNAV said it would only inflame
the situation if anything went wrong.

They did. We'll see about that.

Tiner. Get me the SECNAV.

You knew the admiral wouldn't go
for a ground extraction through Turkey.

You set him up to fight your fight
with the SECNAV.

A good operative never takes a fight

that somebody else
is willing to take for him.

How do you sleep at night?

On the right side.

You might have mentioned
you left it with Bedouins.

I didn't.

What's going on?

Kazzari just insulted him.

These Bedouins
think they own the desert.

We do.

Sir.

I represent the United States Navy.

We are here to recover our plane.

It is our plane.

We found it. That is Bedu law.

What good is this aircraft
to the Bedouin?

I did not say
you could not buy it back.

But first, I, Faisal Muhammad,
leader of the Bedu,

would like to offer
the hospitality of my tent to all,

but this dog.

Easy. They can kill us in a second.

Could he and this man here
check the plane over

to see that nothing is missing
that might affect our trading?

As you wish.

Which one is it?

Gotta read the instructions first.

What is it?

Camel milk.

It's delicious.

I'm glad you like it. Have another.

Looks like a burnt piece of toast.

Hand me the new one, will you?

These Bedouins are thieves.

They could damage the APU
trying to steal something off it.

I got this. You watch the Jeep.

Look, this plane
is of no value to the Bedouin.

You can't fly it.

Its wings make good shade.

That Jeep
has a very powerful generator.

We need it only to start the plane.

When we leave, it is yours.

That plane is worth $80 million.

We may be nomadic,
but we are not stupid.

What's your price?

One million American dollars
in gold.

That can be arranged.

When I get the gold,
you get the plane.

It could take days to get the gold.

By then, the Iranians
might find the aircraft.

No gold, no plane.

It is a deal.

What'd you say to him?

I offered to stay behind as collateral.

I am not leaving you here, Mac.

I'll be fine. This is about commerce,
Harm, not about sex.

You were found not guilty
in your husband's death.

What does that have to do with this?

Well, sometimes people take risks
they shouldn't

when they wanna punish
themselves.

I'll pay my dues, Harm,
at the Article 32 hearing.

I'm doing this
to complete the mission.

I'll be fine.

Well?

She's our bird.

What'd you give him?

The promise of a million dollars
in gold,

Mac as collateral until he gets it.

You'd leave Mac alone with him?

Well, you're gonna be with her.

I always did wanna spend
a few nights alone

in the desert
with a beautiful woman.

She'd be safer alone with Faisal.

Come on,
let's get this bird in the air.

Let's not.

An Iranian armoured unit
has been following us,

waiting for my signal to move in.

I had a feeling breaking Keeter out
was a little too easy.

You should have acted
on your feelings.

Oh, I did.

If this bird isn't in the air
in ten minutes,

the Navy's gonna take it out
with a Maverick missile.

I hope you don't play poker,
commander.

Look, even if I am bluffing,

what does it hurt to stand
a couple of hundred yards away?

Nothing.

Good.

Oh, you probably want me
to take this pistol out, right?

Don't move. Either of you.

I forgot.

You used to live in the States.

Familiar with the American Western.

Yes, I liked them too.

Except I always thought
the good guy

should wear the black hat.

So you can drop your pistol,
but don't kick it.

See? He knows that if I dropped
the pistol and kicked it toward him,

he'd be distracted long enough
for you to rush him.

No, it wouldn't work. I wouldn't
be able to grab him with my cast on.

I'd have to hit him
over the head with it like this.

You were bluffing about the Maverick,
weren't you?

Only about the time.
We got 20 minutes.

Too bad.

You deprived me the pleasure
of shooting him.

- He was a double agent.
- Signalled the Iranian Army with this.

They should be here
in a few minutes.

Mac, Keeter's going with you.

For what? To protect me?

If Keeter was being held as collateral,
would you send me with him?

- Yeah.
- You would?

It's safer than trying to make it
to the Turkish border alone.

If it will make you feel any better,
major,

I'll place myself
under your protection, ma'am.

Strap him onto the wing,
will you, Harm?

Flight deck, move out.
142 at 200.

Flight deck, move out.
142 at 200.

Our latest satellite tracking
shows an Iranian armoured patrol

closing in on our people.

If Mac doesn't get out of this,
Roberts...

- I know.
- What do you mean you know?

It's his bloody op that went sour,
mate, not yours.

I sort of talked him
into rescuing Commander Keeter.

I see. Don't get your knickers in a knot,
mate.

Mac will be back. I'm sure of it.

How can you be sure?

I promised I'd take her skiing.

We'll rendezvous in two days.

Here, in Turkey, on the coast.

What is this instrument?

GPS.
It tells you where you are in the world.

Allah and the stars tell me.
I do not need batteries.

- Take care, Marine.
- You too, sailor.

Your gold will be
at the rendezvous point in 48 hours.

Let's do it, Keeter.

May Allah be with you and my gold.

All right, any last-minute pointers?

If the stabilising warning light
comes on, get out.

I mean it, buddy.
First flashing red light, you punch out.

Come on, come on.

Iranians.

Anytime, Keeter.

What's wrong?

It needs to be primed. Come on.

Yes.

What's taking so long?

He can't put fuel into the engines until
they spool up to 18 percent power.

Yes.

Woman. Give me your hand.

- Hey.
- Come on.

Shadow, this is Guardian.
You are clear to take off.

Roger. Understood.

Seahawk Strike. Shadow 24.

Feet wet.

Roger, Shadow 24.
We have your transponder.

Seahawk Strike,
what's my Charlie time?

- We're ready for you now, Shadow.
- The computer's gonna land him?

Yeah, if the heat sink
doesn't fry the circuit board.

He could try to land manually,
couldn't he?

Not and live.

Shadow 24, state your altitude.

Angels Ten, Seahawk.
About seven minutes out.

Commander, you're the second pilot
to land this bird on a carrier.

- You in position?
- I'm lined up and in the cone.

To automatically land,
you have to activate two systems.

The ACLS switch
outboard of the throttle

and the autopilot button on the stick.

Shadow 24. I'm coupled up.

Sit back, enjoy the ride.

Seahawk, I got a problem.

Yaw trim stabiliser's malfunctioned.

Get out of there, Rabb.

I'm able to maintain control
with the rudders.

There goes the roll stabilisation.

You're running out of time. Get out.

Not while I have air under my wings.

Eject, Rabb. Eject.

I can make it.

I told you to eject.

I really thought I could make it.

No one could, commander.

Tell me, if that system had failed
when you were landing two days ago,

would you have stuck with it?

Probably.

You just learned a valuable lesson.
