[tense dramatic score]

[news reporter] After surviving relentless attacks from mercenary forces

in the escalating oil wars,

sources tell us that pleas have finally been answered

for the besieged employees of Yutime Chinese oil refinery

in the Middle East.

Professor Cheng, Yutime's Director of Operations,

tells us that a private security team from China has volunteered

to carry out the high-risk mission of extracting her trapped oil workers,

who are facing certain death,

and escorting them to the safety of the Green Zone.

[helicopter blades thumping]

[sighs]

Commander Luo,

we're approaching the LZ.

Copy, Captain.

[tense score continues]

[automatic rifle clicks]

- [Cheng in Chinese] Dragon Luo. - [Luo in Chinese] Yes.

[in Chinese] Professor Cheng, head of Yutime Oil.

[in Chinese] Hello, professor.

[in Chinese] Thank you for coming to rescue us.

[in Chinese] Can you bring me up to speed?

- [in Chinese] Of course, follow me. - [in Chinese] HaiMing, unload.

You two, follow me. Hurry up.

[in Chinese] Yes, sir.

[Cheng in Chinese] We are only safe inside the refinery.

[Luo in Chinese] Don't worry, we're here to escort you out.

Our planes are waiting for you in the Green Zone.

Do you know who the rebels are?

[Cheng in Chinese] I don't know.

They want us to give up the refinery.

We've been surrounded for two weeks.

They launch an attack every couple of days.

We've increased our security

but if they launch another attack like yesterday,

we won't make it.

We must evacuate immediately.

[in Chinese] How many are we evacuating?

[in Chinese] Four hundred and ninety eight including the children.

[Luo in Chinese] There's a lot of things to do before we go.

We plan to leave at dawn.

Gets it all and is happy with it.

Looks happy, looks concerned. He's concerned now.

It's in the sand.

[boy in Arabic] I made it.

How's it going, Chris?

You're late, Henry.

Jesus, Chris.

Here's your money, as promised.

We go in and out. Nobody hurt.

You're gonna count it?

Hell yeah, I'm gonna count it.

Listen, you're family but you're a thief.

Ah.

Bald Eagle over there, he doesn't care if I count it.

Bit of a misread on me, I think he does care if I count it.

Or-or was it the nickname?

You guys do nicknames?

You guys don't do nicknames.

Are you kidding me? Nicknames are like the heart of team camaraderie.

Huh, you guys are in luck, nicknames are like my superpower.

I've been giving 'em out since peewee football.

Yeah, bro,

these guys are a little bit on edge.

I'm gonna take the edge off.

Okay, [clears throat]

Bald Eagle,

like the one from the Muppets.

Toothpick.

There's a double meaning. You'll figure it out.

Uh,

Tomb Raider, because I just--

I just feel like you'll haunt me long after I'm dead.

[tense score]

[sighs] Uh...

Full disclosure, there's a lot going on here, uh...

I'm drawn to "Graffiti"

'cause it looks like some teenagers vandalized your face.

That's not it.

It's just a start for me, but I got you.

Bro,

can you be serious for one second?

Have you given any more thought to my plan?

Like, one more mission, five times the money?

Can't do it. I've already done way too much.

You're telling me this place couldn't use more money to fix things up?

Don't start.

Yeah, well, it's a big job.

- No. - Moving target.

No.

And it's for Unicorp, bro.

Not interested.

You remember that rebel attack on Area Seven, don't you?

When five of our guys got popped.

This is the son of a bitch who armed them.

And right now

a team of mercenaries is escorting this dirtbag back to China.

You wanna take on the Chinese?

No, no, no. It's not the Chinese.

It's an international criminal, all right?

She's being extracted on the Highway of Death

back to the Green Zone.

[boy in Arabic] Big Dog, come on.

Stay there, I'll pick you up.

Highway of Death?

The most dangerous road in the country.

You know that.

You're an idiot for even thinking about it.

Yeah, Dad would've done it, though.

[Chris sighs]

[tense score]

That was low.

Even for you.

[truck engine starts]

[boy yells excitedly in Arabic]

Keep your eye on the ball, okay?

Almost, almost.

Now let's let it rip. Hit the mitt.

Whoa.

- Fantastic. - [car horn honking]

You got it, Funhouse, come on.

Hey, Soraya.

Hello, Owen.

You look beautiful today.

What? No!

I hope you don't mind me saying, but that, um, abaya,

it really makes your, your skin glow.

Owen, stop.

Always working.

No harder than you, my friend.

[briefcase clatters]

So what about the pipe?

It's bone dry.

And you're wasting your time.

Pump's rusted.

Pipe's disconnected.

- [grunts] - [valve squeaks]

[goat bleating]

[sighs]

Damn, I hate this company.

Well, I hate we don't have water.

Yeah.

I mean, I have a little.

I got buckets and charcoal, so we bring a little at a time, but

it's not enough. I mean, they built that dam.

- They cut this place off. - [Owen sighs]

If you want, I can go talk to Unicorp headquarters

but you know how that goes.

You want us to bribe 'em for water?

There's only one thing more expensive than oil.

Water.

The more desperate, the more expensive.

How much?

[Owen sighs]

Probably a 100 grand.

[tender score]

I'm sorry, I'm doing all I can.

It's just that it--

I'll get a crew together if you guys can get the money.

Okay.

Do what you can.

This place is gonna die without water, man.

[ominous score]

[in Chinese] The weather conditions are clear.

[in Chinese] Let them know we'll arrive at the Green Zone in two groups.

One at nine a.m., the second at four p.m.

[in Chinese] Got it.

English, please.

What about air recon?

Your primary and secondary routes to the Green Zone are hostile.

[Pilot] Sir, all the other options are rebel controlled.

[comm clicks off]

Then we're still taking the Highway of Death.

It's the fastest way

from here to the Green Zone.

Nonstop, eight hours.

[dramatic score]

[tender score]

Chris,

where are we going to get the $100,000?

- [in Chinese] Do a head count. - [in Chinese] Yes, sir.

Come on.

[children chattering]

Follow me.

Come on, come on.

[in Chinese] Professor, there's still another seat on bus eight.

You can go with your assistant.

[in Chinese] Excellent. Let's go.

[in Chinese] But you are on bus one.

[soldier shouting]

[in Chinese] Okay.

I'll see you in the Green Zone.

[in Chinese] Please be careful.

[cap clicking off spray paint can]

[hissing]

[in Chinese] Dr. Mei.

I saved a seat for you.

Shadow Squad.

Let's go!

[in Chinese] Yes, sir.

You hold tight.

[ominous score]

The Highway of Death.

It looks so tragic.

[in Chinese] A lot of people died here during the war.

Please sit down.

Hm?

[Mei scoffs]

Seatbelt please.

[condor screeches]

[tires squealing]

[explosion]

[excited chatter]

[dramatic score]

[excited chatter]

You see?

It's all a trap.

They want to lure you in

somewhere you think is safe and take your life.

Mei,

I'm here to protect you.

[in Chinese] You are here to be a hero not for me,

but for them.

[in Chinese] Your name was on the evacuation list.

[unbuckles seatbelt]

[in Chinese] So,

you brought your team all the way here to save me

just for my forgiveness?

It's not gonna happen.

You broke my mom's heart.

And mine as well.

I'll never forgive you.

[in Chinese] It was your mom who took you away from me.

[in Chinese] That's just because you never cared about us.

My mom was lying there in the hospital,

she couldn't get out of bed

but you never bothered to visit her, not even once.

How could you be so cruel?

[in Chinese] I was on a top secret mission.

Our country needed me.

[in Chinese] Our country needed you?

Right.

What about me?

I was so little.

Mom was in the hospital, she needed you more.

But what have you done for us?

As an engineer here,

I'm grateful for you.

But as your daughter,

there's nothing left to say.

[in Chinese] Dragon, on your one o'clock.

[dramatic score continues]

[in Chinese] Attention, everybody.

There's a sandstorm up ahead.

QiXing,

didn't you say the weather was clear?

[in Chinese] I've been keeping an eye on the data.

It shows the chance of a sandstorm here is zero.

[Luo in Chinese] If we don't keep going, we'll miss our window.

Jing and Yan, close the hatches.

We need to get through as fast as possible.

[dramatic score continues]

[soft boom]

This sandstorm is very unusual.

HaiMing.

HaiMing?

HaiMing, do you copy?

[in Chinese] I don't copy either.

Yan?

Strange, there is no signal.

[in Chinese] Hey, is that--

[Luo in Chinese] What?

[in Chinese] Huh?

Nothing. I thought I saw something.

[engines revving loudly]

[Chris] Should be close to the target.

Tell me what you see.

[Henry] There it is.

Our objective plus four of her core crew.

[Chris] Toothpick, Tomb Raider, we're on the X.

Scribblehead, extract and drop. Let's go.

[in Chinese] Our comms went completely down just now.

[in Chinese] What about you guys?

[in Chinese] There's nothing. No signal.

[in Chinese] Are all the buses here?

[in Chinese] I saw bus eight leave the convoy.

[in Chinese] Where did it go?

[in Chinese] East.

- [in Chinese] Where is Yan? - [in Chinese] Bus 11 is gone too.

[in Chinese] What's wrong with you?

You lost two entire buses in a sandstorm.

[in Chinese] That storm is not natural.

[score swells, fades out]

[in Chinese] Hurry up, hurry up, go!

Go. Go.

Hey, these the guys that armed Area Seven?

- Yeah, why? - These guys?

[Henry scoffs quietly]

What's a criminal supposed to look like, bro, huh?

You remember Typhoid Mary?

She killed like a 100 people.

Yeah, she was just a cook.

[beeping]

[in Chinese] We got it!

[in Chinese] Dragon!

Captain Azir, we lost two buses.

We need both helicopters here.

Copy, Commander.

We are circling back.

Okay.

- [in Chinese] Take the second helicopter. - [in Chinese] Okay.

- [in Chinese] Follow me. - [in Chinese] Where?

[in Chinese] You're familiar with this desert.

Isn't this part of your job?

[in Chinese] Yeah,

I have surveyed this area with Professor Cheng before.

Why?

[in Chinese] I need your help finding the missing buses.

[in Chinese] I...

[dramatic score]

[in Chinese] Don't worry, I will protect you.

[helicopter blades whirring]

[dramatic score continues]

It's breaking up.

This doesn't happen in the canyons.

Look!

[wind blowing]

[in Chinese] ShenWei,

the sandstorm was man-made.

They used jet engines to push the sand.

[in Chinese] Copy.

Azir,

head north.

[exciting score]

[in Chinese] Dragon, Dragon!

Dragon!

Can you hear me?

We were ambushed by mercenaries.

[in Chinese] Who were they?

[in Chinese] Americans. They were very fast.

Very organized.

[in Chinese] You stand down.

Connect with HaiMing.

[in Chinese] Copy.

[in Chinese] HaiMing,

can you get a GPS position on bus eight?

[in Chinese] GPS can't locate it.

[in Chinese] ShenWei,

scan a 10-mile radius

for any fast-moving vehicles.

Report if you find anything.

[in Chinese] Copy.

[in English] Circle around.

[engine revving]

What's your problem?

I knew I couldn't trust you.

Bro, you are paranoid.

Shit. Incoming!

[helicopter blades thumping]

Cover fire.

Must be them! Go, go, go.

Copy!

[dramatic score]

[gunshots]

[in Chinese] Dragon Luo,

there's suspicious mercenaries and they're firing on us!

Let's go. Head east.

My name is Knox!

Shit!

He's moving too fast.

Hold on!

[boom]

Tomb Raider, cover me now.

Tramp Stamp, I'm drawing this helo away

and you stay behind and take it out!

[tires skidding]

We need to keep going.

We got no chance with that thing in the air.

You take care of the bird.

I'll get 'em to the exchange site.

Copy!

Set.

Tramp Stamp, take it out.

[helicopter blades whirring]

I'm out.

[rapid beeping]

[Tomb Raider] I'm out.

Who hired us?

- Unicorp. - Don't lie to me, Henry!

What are you mixed up in?

Go easy on him, Chris.

[dramatic score]

It's like you said,

no one works harder than me.

Owen?

[Owen laughing]

[helicopter blades thumping]

[excited chatter]

[in Chinese] Hey, Mei,

they took Professor Cheng and her assistant.

[in Chinese] What?

[Cheng gasps]

Professor Ying Cheng.

Finally.

I'm very, very thankful you could make it.

Have we met?

No, I'm afraid I haven't had the pleasure until now.

I hope my men didn't cause too many problems for you.

It was you attacking our refinery?

Please understand, professor,

it's not personal.

Knox!

Let's talk.

[indistinct chatter]

I've been all over this country.

You know what I've found?

This isn't a desert.

Everything here is a gold mine.

And I'm wiping the company out, Chris.

What?

I watched them get rich while I busted my ass off.

Sixteen years of false promises.

[sighs]

I even gave up having a family for them.

And for what?

Nothing.

But now it's my turn.

I'm taking this war private.

I'm taking back what they owe me.

What they owe us.

Listen, Owen, what you got going on here that's your business.

It's between you and her.

Hm.

Dragon Luo is leading the Chinese security team.

He's gonna come after the professor.

If you can keep him off my tail, I can make you rich.

Not interested. I just want my money.

When the job is done.

The job is done. Henry said dropping--

Henry's young and desperate!

You can't trust people who are desperate.

It's our time.

You don't want to pass this up, my friend.

And remember,

no money,

no water.

Selfish son of a bitch.

I'm selfish?

[dramatic score]

You know what selfish is?

Staying here and hiding.

I'm done with you.

Whatever you want.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, you're just gonna let him walk?

He's your brother.

You stop him.

Chris, wait.

I-I need to collect our money and we gotta finish.

Get out of here while you still can.

[engine starts, rumbles]

Well, go on then.

Quit.

Just like you did when you bailed on our old man.

[engine revving]

Be at the village at 1600 sharp.

Bring the rest of my money and don't be late.

[revs engine]

[tires skidding]

Owen.

We don't need him.

I can handle this Dragon Luo guy on my own.

You failed, Henry.

That makes me so sad.

[dramatic score]

[metallic ting]

[grunts]

Stop!

We need the hostages.

Idiot.

Take him back to the radio tower

and make it look like Chinese payback, okay?

Also, close the loop on Henry's bullshit with the French.

We can't have them interfering with the plan.

Let's go!

[man yelling in Arabic]

Hey.

[dramatic score]

Follow that car.

Copy, sir.

What's up ahead?

I don't know.

[in Chinese] There's a village there in Area Four.

But it's dangerous.

Follow him.

We're low on fuel.

I can make it, but that's it.

[in Chinese] You stay in the helicopter, okay?

I come for my people.

What are you doing in my village?

What are you doing in the desert?

I'm fishing.

What are you doing in the desert?

[cell phone rings]

[in Chinese] Hello?

I'm fine.

I'm playing baseball with a bangchui (idiot).

I came for my people.

You got the wrong guy.

Chris, we play.

[goat bleating]

Whoa.

[tense score becomes more gentle]

You caught it, Funhouse. That was awesome.

[Soraya in Arabic] I told you many times to behave yourself.

You will get punished next time.

Listen to me.

Listen to me.

You killed my people.

They killed your people. They killed my brother too.

[in French] What's going on here?

Where is my money?

[in French] Hello.

You speak French?

That's all.

Where is my money, Mr. America?

For the weapons.

Looking for money?

- Get in line. - [pin rings]

Hurry up. I think they're gonna shoot you.

Why?

Because the first time I see you,

I wanted to shoot you.

Hurry up, grenade!

I gotta find it!

It's in the bin.

What?

In the bin.

Pull the pin?

Okay, here!

[high-pitched ringing]

Huh?

Why'd you pull the pin, man?

- Pull the pin? - I said "the bin."

I pulled the pin already.

[score fades out]

How do you know?

No more shooting.

You closer.

Yeah, I think they're gone.

Don't look one direction.

Owen Paddock runs everything for Unicorp.

He's got your people.

Which company? This company?

No, that one.

Get in the car.

Hey, no time! Come on, come on, come on.

Let go!

Where you learn Chinese?

[in Chinese] I was in Shanghai working for a dead man company.

[in Chinese] What?

[in Chinese] A dead man company.

[in Chinese] Dead man company?

Yes, private security.

Not "funeral parlor".

Private security company. First tone, not third tone.

Why take two buses?

You only needed bus eight.

Distraction.

Hey, man, your friend dropped her book.

I'm no idiot, I don't see any chemistry there between you two

so I figured I would use the book

as like an in, you know.

I mean, I put my number in the back or something, 'cause I mean,

look at her, man.

She is hot.

That booty.

I mean, I'm no freak kind of guy but--

She's my daughter.

Huh...

[Chris clears throat nervously]

Uh, of course she is. I--

You-- Now that you mention it, she--

she looks just like you.

She is your daughter.

How did I not see that?

[gentle, poignant score]

Mei and I,

complicated.

Her mother died.

For Mei, maybe I'm dead, too.

Wait, you said you never give up.

In war, yes.

In life, not so easy.

Why are you here?

Yeah.

Me and my brother used to work for my dad.

Private contractors?

Yeah. Damn good too.

Every one of us, Special Ops.

Two years ago, my old man got a job on the Highway of Death.

Turned it down.

First time I ever heard him say it.

So I convinced him to take it.

And we... drove right into a rebel ambush.

Forty-eight hour firefight.

In the end, I... hatched up a plan to get us out of there.

I-I-I needed to hold the line

so my dad could move.

But I signaled to him that I needed to move.

And we both moved at the same time.

And everybody got wasted.

My dad got killed right there in front of me.

Your father and your men,

they died because it was their time.

This is the life we choose.

Don't look for reasons why.

Yeah, before, man, we...

fought for honor or a flag or something.

I fight for my family,

my people, my country. That's all.

They were my family.

The village is your family now.

By the way, what's your real name?

It's not bangchui (idiot).

It's Chris.

Let's go.

Don't you know what this means?

Yeah, call you, have a beer, relax. What do you mean?

One, two, three, four, five, six, six o'clock.

How does that mean six? Just say, "Behind you."

Looks like we got ourselves an old-fashioned standoff.

Look, here's your tracking device

but you don't know where the girl is and you're not gonna find her.

[grenade pin clatters to ground]

I'm only here for the bag.

The bag?

Hey, where are you going?

Ah, no, no!

What are you doing?

Chris!

Hey.

What are you doing?

[in Chinese] This is my family!

I protect this village!

If they want that bag,

I'll just give them that bag.

You speak--

[in Chinese] You can speak Chinese?

Yes, that's how mad I am right now.

[emotional score]

[Luo sighs]

What's so important about that bag anyway?

The bag has the USB key and the passwords

to open the flow from the refinery.

How much oil?

Millions of barrels.

Yeah, who cares?

To get that much oil out of the refinery they'd need like... 500 trucks

and then they gotta drive it to the coast.

There is an underground network

that flows across the country.

That's what those pipes are for?

[tense score]

[rooster crows in distance]

They use the pipes

and fill tankers.

Each tanker holds a 100 million in oil. That would make it--

The biggest oil heist in history.

We gotta get to the refinery.

But we need something that can drive through the gate.

I got something.

You in position yet?

We're on the station. Standing by.

[Owen] Copy.

[captain] Gentlemen, prepare to dock.

[dramatic score]

[in Chinese] I'm coming too!

I know the refinery better than you do.

I can help you guys.

[in Chinese] It's dangerous there.

You should wait here.

[Luo sighs gently]

[tender score]

I promise, I'll come back for you.

[in Chinese] Fine.

Be careful.

The refinery is very flammable.

Don't use guns.

You have to remember never to use guns.

[in Chinese] Okay.

- Take it s-- - Shut up.

Okay, you're right, you're right.
