Do you know why you're here?

- I was ordered to be here. - That's not what I meant.

OK. Well, look, my new CO thinks that he's gonna make Admiral one day

with his "pioneering approach to the management of combat stress.”

So you're not a fan of psychotherapy?

No.

So... what should we talk about?

I don't know. That's your nickel. Your time.

All right. Tell me about Nate.

Jackpot!

You know...

even if I wanted to talk about that night, the op and what happened,

I don't think you would be cleared.

Mr. Hayes, I read the After Action Reports.

I know about the weapons on the ship and where they were going.

I'm cleared to know anything you do.

TOC, we have confirmed Jackpot.

I'm looking at 14 Javelin missiles. Request permission to move the demo.

Copy, Bravo One. Wait one.

Bravo One standing by.

War on Terror, baby. War on Terror.

TOC did give you the authorization to move to demolition.

You set the charges, but instead of proceeding immediately to exfil...

Bravo Two, this is Bravo Four.

- Go for Two. - What's the story on those skiffs?

Still out of our hair for the moment.

Beautiful. There's no reason we can't look inside that safe on the bridge.

Bridge safe is not our mission.

We get into that safe, maybe we find something

that lets us go after the guys on both ends of the shipment.

Bravo One, this is Bravo Two. What's your status? Over.

Bravo Two, hold one.

Let's do this.

Let's go.

This is Bravo One. We're going for the ship's log.

We're gonna find out where these arms were headed.

Sonny, you owe me that bottle of Macallan.

Nate talked him into it? Why do I feel like you just hustled me?

Because I did.

Nate really wanted to get a look in that safe.

It doesn't matter what Nate wanted.

I made the call.

- Clear. - Clear.

You guys get back to exfil.

Alpha Team, moving to exfil.

We got names, numbers. I mean, that's the stuff we can halfway read.

Bravo One, this is Bravo Two.

You have three enemy boats inbound. You need to exfil immediately.

Copy. We're moving to the secondary extraction point. Let's go.

Go, go!

Hey!

- We lost the bag. - Nate, leave it.

- I got it. - Don't do it!

- Jase, I got it! - Don't do it, kid!

- Let me go! - Get in.

Go, go, go, go!

Fire in the hole, boys!

Where's that blood coming from?

I understand that you're still in touch with his wife and child.

He's my godson.

And they're living in Wyoming now?

Mm-hm. That's where she's from.

Molly.

That'd be Nate's, uh, wife. I mean...

widow, so, yeah.

And she's bringing the boy back here this weekend for his First Communion.

Will your family be there?

Well, look at that. Time's up.

So we're clear, the fact that you refuse to talk about Nate's death

is the most obvious way of telling me

that that's exactly what we need to be talking about.

It was really nice meeting you, Julie.

- Dr. Kruger. - Right.

I trust you agree that I fulfilled my obligation here this morning

and you will relate that to my chain of command.

OK.

The body of Christ.

The body of Christ.

The body of Christ.

Aha, look at that, ladies and gentlemen!

Our First Communicant, Landon Massey. Come here, buddy.

Bud. Blow it up. Boom!

- You know he's sleeping on our fold-out? - I heard.

I miss seeing you guys. It sucks. That's the way it works.

If any of us thought there was a chance you two

wouldn't get past this, we'd be taking it pretty hard.

All right, buddy. Enjoy it while you can, OK?

Because in a few years, you wanna sip a wine,

you're gonna start copping to Father about all your sins.

Maybe not all of them.

- We're gonna go. - I'm sorry,

you can't spare a Saturday afternoon

to celebrate your god-brother's First Communion?

We watched him eat the wafer.

We really got to stay till he drinks the Kool-Aid?

What you say in private is one thing. In public, you represent this family.

- Hey, Daddy. - Hey.

- We're gonna go. - OK.

And they're off.

Well, you know what, I'm just gonna go... be somewhere else.

So, Molly and Landon are gonna stay at the house for a couple of nights

- after her parents go back. - OK. I don't live there any more,

so it really doesn't matter.

And I realize it's a long shot,

but it'd be great if you could come by one evening.

It's the first week of new rotation.

Also, Emma's recital is this week and I know she won't say anything,

but it would mean a lot if you could just be there.

Pll try. Twill try.

We got to go.

Sorry, you'll have to excuse us.

Go.

Let's move.

Just be safe. Call when you can, OK?

1 will.

Come on.

The agency believes we have an opportunity to snatch Abu Samir.

Yes, I know some of us have been down this road before,

but for anyone needing a refresher, Abu Samir Al-Masri.

High-level ISIL commander, responsible for dozens of attacks

on coalition forces in Iraq.

Last several months, we've had sightings of Samir

throughout Central Africa, meeting with various local jihadi leaders.

He's due to sit down with some guys from Boko Haram in two days.

That's our window.

- We're going into Nigeria? - Not Nigeria... Liberia.

Samir doesn't trust Boko enough to meet on their turf. General Lionheart.

He's guaranteeing security for both sides at his compound outside Monrovia.

We've got 24-hour drone surveillance on the place.

They'll let us know as soon as Samir is on site.

We're looking for a snatch-and-grab, live capture of a high-value target.

So you believe the moment of truth comes and Abu Samir just passes on martyrdom?

Martyrdom's a young man's game.

Samir's talent for self-reinvention is part of what's allowed him

to survive in the game for over 20 years, but that means...

20 years of gold floating around his head,

and if you can bring him to me still breathing,

I'm gonna get it all.

- Clear. - Reset.

- Yo, mama. - Get on the ground.

- Whatever. - Get on the ground!

- Stop worrying about me. - Now!

You should worry about your hostage! Cause you dead!

Hold there.

It appears we have a problem, Mr. Spenser.

- Big problem, Big Chief. - For you and me both.

Matter of fact, mine might be the bigger problem.

See, you get taken in the prime of your life while you still have your hair.

I have to live the rest of my life with these fellas

whispering behind my back how I got you killed

on account of I went easy. What do you think of that?

I think the name "Big Chief" is meant to be ironic.

How's that now?

Well, Big Chief in the movie. I mean, the guy barely talks.

Matter of fact, he even kind of seems like maybe he can't talk.

Whereas you...

Please step out, Miss. Thank you for your service.

Mr. Spenser, would you care to save us a little time

and tell us the mistakes you're already planning to correct

so as not to get yourself killed in some dumbass way.

I can't think of one.

Do you believe you are right not to assess as a threat

the woman we just saw with a gun to your head?

I believe I was correct to prioritize the military-age male

as the greater threat,

but I guess I should have considered the possibility that she was muling him.

You know, even then, I don't think that I would have turned around to search her

before I got him on the ground

and if I had, I bet you would have dinged me for it.

Reset!

I'm telling you, he's not ready.

- So he's a wiseass. - Wiseass? More like a smartass.

OK. Do you remember what we were like when we were in Green Team?

I'm sorry, but we just watched him get killed...

You and I know that scenario was a no-win.

I don't know.

Big Chief says the kid sees the matrix, just like his old man.

Is he gonna write a book too?

Mm-hm. Anybody see a way to hit this place from the ground?

Well, not with Humvees or APCs, that's for sure.

Little Mogadishu for my taste.

We could patrol in. Insert somewhere on this beach.

- Uh-uh. - What?

All that garbage on the surface is a problem for the outboards.

Guys, stop. You're way overthinking this.

We're not swimming the prisoner out. OK?

We're going in the same way we're going out, that's with choppers.

Rotors are gonna make awful racket coming up that valley.

Give everybody in the house time to get set to repel boarders.

It's not Samir's house.

- It's not Samir's house? - Uh-uh.

So?

Why is he gonna dig in when he hears the rotors?

He's not gonna dig in when he hears the rotors. He's not into martyrdom.

So we come straight up the valley, buzz the compound,

drop right down on them, and then what? Samir's gonna squirt.

Instead of landing on the X, Blackhawk's gonna come about for the VI.

Boom. Bam.

Davis, you got a basic sense of what we'll need?

For a helo-based vehicle interdiction? Don't insult me.

Oh, I wouldn't go down that path if I were you.

- You heard about your strap? - Wait a second.

I don't have a strap. Carlo's Team has got the strap.

What am I getting, the DNA Tech?

No, she's still with Carlo. You're getting the translator.

But they speak English in Liberia.

Yeah, but the general's guards don't speak English.

This weird bastard's apparently so paranoid about being betrayed,

he only hires bodyguards who can't communicate with the neighbors.

OK. So what do they speak?

Intelligence just said "local tribal dialects.”

But turns out there's about 200 of those.

Yeah, of course there is.

Good news is, Commander Blackburn found a guy that grew up over there,

so he speaks a lot of the big ones.

Wait a second. Last time that I was in the Tribals,

it took two days to find a translator who could speak Urdu.

So, you're telling me, in 19 hours, you found someone

who could speak the local tribal dialects?

- It's better to be lucky than good. - You got to be kidding me.

- Any word on wheels up? - Strictly hush-hush.

You know how it is, first spin of a new rotation.

- What time do you pick in the pool? - 2200.

Gives us about four hours.

I have an idea what we can do.

Uh, no, no, no!

The doctor said it was fine. Good, even.

Didn't he also say that it could trigger labor?

Oh, maybe.

No, we need this kid to wait in here till daddy's home to catch him.

You hear that, son?

Any idea when that will be?

Timeframe for the op is awful tight.

Just so as long as you make it back home to us.

Roger that.

So, the ISUs are all loaded and I just got off with the advanced team.

- Great. TOC up and ready? - Oh, yeah.

What do you say, Jedi? Are you ready? Let's go, brother, huh? Come on, man.

Clay Spenser, Jason Hayes. Meet your strap.

We've had worse straps.

Remember Captain What's-his-name? Froze on a HAHO ramp?

At least this kid's a team guy.

Team guy? That's Ash Spenser's kid, you realize that?

You're gonna hold it against him because his dad got PNG?

His dad's only persona non grata because he had the bad manners

to write a book without being an officer.

Big Chief already signed off. It's one mission.

One mission? I don't wanna get in this kid's head

like this is some kind of an audition. One mission. Here.

You got a problem with your accommodations?

You know how many times I've made a hammock on a C-1307?

Yeah, the new CO says straps get straps, so...

But I'm not a strap.

According to the Navy, until you graduate Green Team,

you're a member of Chalk Two, Alpha Platoon, SEAL Team Three.

- Damn right. - Yes.

And as impressive as that is, if you're working on an operation

and you're not a Tier-One operator, you're a strap.

So... how about you sit back down, buckle up back here

with the rest of us support personnel,

and don't make me kick your ass up and down this aircraft?

Can I at least get an Ambien...

if I'm gonna sleep sitting upright for the next 19 hours?

It's gonna be 22 hours.

And Ambien, I can do.

I might even able to rustle you up a Seconal if you treat me real nice.

Clay. Strap-hanger... for now.

Mandy. Strap-hanger always.

Are you guys with the CIA?

We can neither confirm nor deny.

Hey, just wanna introduce the new hair missile,

get his scent on you while he's still calm.

This is Cerberus. He's a pussy cat.

Now, if he accidentally bites you,

well, in the unlikely event that he does, do not say "no."

Part of their training is that biting is never wrong. Ain't that right?

Yeah, I should probably tell you where we keep the broom handle

in case we got to pry open his jaw.

Thank you, Sonny.

- Hey... - Hey, whoa, whoa, whoa! No.

Listen, pal, you never tell him to sit.

The only time he's supposed to sit is when he smells explosives. Are we clear?

Those aren't clouds.

Smoke. City is in the middle of burning time.

There's no way we get a green light unless we can confirm Samir's presence.

Until a few hours ago, we had no problem finding holes in the smog.

Finding holes? I'm not seeing any holes in here.

That's because now Lionheart's guys have joined in the burning.

And you failed to mention that to us because why?

I told you, till a couple of hours ago, our optics weren't compromised.

He means about the guys in the compound starting to burn.

You think they're using the fires to cover Samir's arrival?

I say we get a little sneak and peek.

A ground recon? You wanna go out into the city on foot?

Yeah, we'll take the Scooby Van. Davis?

Seriously? I know Monrovia's supposed to have gotten better

the last couple of years, but it's still Mad Max out there.

That was racist. That sounded racist to me. How about you?

Mad Max is wall-to-wall white folks. Definitely racist to ask a black guy

to rule if something's racist or not, just FYI.

- OK, mocha latte. - See? That's racist!

Guys, guys, you're punking us, right?

You're not actually considering going out there?

Let's set up the camera and I'll get first watch.

Let's get some sleep.

- Morning khat delivery? - Possible.

Most of Lionheart's guys are a bunch of speed freaks.

Shocking.

Look, my, uh...

my dad's book.

I know a lot of guys had a problem with it.

Man survives the things he did, he should write a book about them.

Your watch. Get in here. Let's go. Hey, come on. Move over, will you?

You're crowding my space now.

Stay right there, strap, so I can lean back into you, like that. There you go.

We got movement.

- White kufi. Take a look. - TOC, this is Bravo One.

Confirming you're seeing what we're seeing here.

Roger that, Bravo One. We're seeing it. Positive ID on Abu Samir Al-Masri.

Congratulations, TOC. He is exactly where you told us he was gonna be.

Tell you what, we're gonna pack up and then we're gonna exfil. How copy?

Strong copy, Bravo One. Great work.

- Let's go. - I don't get it.

What do you mean you don't get it?

I mean, Samir's legendary for his tradecraft.

Kept him alive all these years while his friends got turned into pink mist.

Why's he coming out in the open now?

We don't know it's khat they're selling.

Bravo One, this is TOC. Current video feed appears to show

subjects unloading a hooded prisoner. Can you confirm?

Affirmative.

Freeze it there.

Enhance.

Oh, God!

I know who that is.

Believe everyone's properly situated here now, Miss Ellis.

So please tell us what we know about this poor woman, Miss...

Marshall, sir. Stacey Marshall.

Abducted April last year from her NGO's distribution center in South Sudan.

We're not certain how she came into the possession of this particular group,

but it's not uncommon for hostages to be sold and resold

through various pipelines, particularly attractive Western females.

Hmm. Thank you, Miss Ellis.

Now, Eric, how are we planning to bring this young lady home

- to her loving parents? - Sir.

- Yes, Miss Ellis? - Abu Samir's continued survival

would almost certainly mean hundreds of deaths,

both of civilians and of Coalition personnel.

In fact, we believe he may have knowledge of planned attacks already in motion.

I'm gonna cut you off there, Miss Ellis.

It sounded like you're about to suggest we do nothing for Miss Marshall

and instead adhere to our current operational plan to snatch Abu Samir.

Eric, I'm gonna ask you a very simple question.

Do we have the resources to rescue the hostage

and perform a successful, non-lethal snatch of the HVT?

Well, sir, it's difficult to be definitive

till we've had enough time to fully revise our ops plan,

- but I think at the moment... - We can do both.

- Uh, I'm sorry, who's that? - Senior Chief Hayes.

Jason. You were saying?

I'm saying that we can accomplish both objectives.

Now, son, needless to say, your reputation precedes you.

But that's mighty hard to imagine.

Assuming that Samir digs in. But according to the CIA,

he's gonna pick flight over fight. Isn't that right, Miss Ellis?

- That's correct. That's our projection. - So Helo One and Helo Two

are gonna fast-rope the assault team on top of the building.

They're gonna clear down and secure the hostage.

Helo Three is gonna go after Samir when he squirts

and Helo Four is gonna maintain our close-air support.

Eric, clearly your op-planning is much further along

than you led us to believe. Nice work, son.

Thank you, sir.

- You'll launch this evening? - As soon as the sun goes down.

Good. Good luck. Thank you, gentlemen.

We miss out on this guy, right.

We miss out on Samir. Who knows how many more people he's gonna kill?

I get that. This may be our only shot. What do you think?

I almost had him in Baghdad two years ago.

I was meeting with this Deputy Economic Minister,

coffee shop in the Mansour district.

We're getting ready to go, door opens.

It's Samir.

Walks right by our table, not much further than where you are right now.

I'm close enough to see the crystal's cracked on his Rolex.

- That's close. - And then I look at my source.

Take out Samir, even if I get away, my asset's a dead man.

Probably tortured for a month first, right?

So, as soon as we're on the street, lcallitin,

but turns out our intrepid local partners at the state security services

had been infiltrated by extremists.

Hey, there's nothing you could have done. Nothing.

Well, a week later, one of Samir's cells blows up a school bus in Mosul,

kills 26 teenagers. Week after that, my source, the guy I was protecting...

Samir's guys grab him and his family.

They sent the death videos to Langley.

We got this.

- The hostage? - Like I said... we got this.

This is Chalk Four. I'm having some kind of trouble with my pedals.

I'm getting a lot of shake in them.

It's affecting our stability. I'm trying to hold her steady.

All right, Chalk Four, I need your honest assessment.

Can you continue this mission?

Negative. I need to put her down.

Copy. Chalks One, Two, and Three, your birds are still functional, correct?

Roger. Five-by-five.

- Chalk Two, five-by-five. - Chalk Three, five-by-five.

All right. All call signs, initiate bump plan.

Mission is now exclusively hostage rescue.

Snatch-and-grab operation has been scrapped.

Sorry, ma'am. We'll have to get him next time.

Confirming, hostage rescue only.

RPG, 12 o'clock.

Clear.

Clear.

Put it down, now! Put it down!

Translator.

- I'm gonna ghost him. - Try another dialect.

- Jase. - Try another one.

It's OK. It's OK.

It's OK. We're here. We're American. We're gonna take you home, OK? Shh.

- [WHIMPERS] - You're safe. All right?

- I'll get this off of you. - Thank you.

We're gonna take you home, all right? It's OK. Hey, hey.

All Chalks, this is Bravo One.

We have secured the hostage. We're gonna move her to exfil from here.

Roger, Bravo One. Nice work.

This is X-Ray One. We're on the first deck. The dog's found something.

- Sonny? Sonny! - Roger.

You and the strap, you exfil her. We're gonna go see what the dog has

and we're gonna go home on Chalk Two. Let's go.

Boss, we run into another one of the General's guys,

it would be great to have the translator with us.

You want the strap on my back, don't you? OK. Let's go. Let's go.

Samir?

Chalk, this is Bravo One. We still have a chance to grab Samir.

We good?

You can run but you can't hide.

You need to stay here and watch our six.

- Are we clear? - Yeah.

All right. Cool.

Go.

Clay!

Clay!

Bravo One, this is Sierra Hotel One. The tunnel is not secure.

Do you copy? Over.

Bravo One, tunnel not secure. Do you copy?

OK, easy, easy.

Hey, easy. Hey. Hey.

Easy.

Put your hands up. What's wrong? Hey. Raise your hands. Put them up.

Easy.

Look at me, look at me. Right there. Raise your hands. Raise your hands.

Listen to me! I told you to stay out of the tunnel. No?

Jase! Jase!

Walk me through it, OK? When I left you at the tunnel's entrance,

I told you to watch our six. Ready? Go. Ten now. One...

I caught a dude trying to creep on you,

so I needed to clear the rest of that tunnel section in case he had a partner.

Really? OK. Then why did you decide to shwack some HVT

when we were sent 5,000 miles to bring him in alive?

I came on the room, I saw the S-vest.

I assessed all three of us were in imminent threat.

- You assessed why we weren't shooting? - Figured you didn't have a clean shot.

Did you check his hands?

I didn't wanna give him time to clack off the vest.

What? Come on! The guy was wearing an S-vest. That's got to be clean, right?

/ told him to stay outside, watch my six.

- Yeah, I know. But the kid made a call. - What kind of call did he make?

- And he's got a point. - A point?

Guy trying to creep could've easily had a friend.

Plus he got Samir straight through the light switch. I mean, come on!

You know what? If Samir is all about martyrdom,

that detonator, bam, right when we entered the room. Boom.

Maybe he was trying to draw us closer.

Know what? His thumb wasn't on the detonator, OK?

- How was it with the hostage? - Got her number.

- Got her number. - That's why you didn't smoke him?

Wait a second. Slow down, stop. You're saying that's why you didn't smoke him?

No. No, man. The kid was right as far as my position. I didn't have a clear shot.

Well, I did. 1 did. I had the shot. I could've brought him in.

Bottom line, kid saw a guy in an S-vest, had the drop on him, took the shot.

White noise right now in my head. I am not hearing you.

You gonna call him out in the AAR, say he got it wrong?

You know that's gonna follow him, Jason.

Your name and an AAR saying it was a bad shoot?

Look, you might actually be the best damn gunfighter who ever lived.

- If not, you're awful close. - I'm listening now. What was that?

So if you're telling me even when you were in Green Team,

you were good enough to give a guy in an S-vest

the pregnant pause before smoking him because of where his thumb was...

Samir's thumb wasn't on the detonator. Did you see his thumb?

- I couldn't see his hands. - I could see his hands.

You're honor-bound to call him out cause he missed something

that you and a half-dozen other guys on Earth are good enough not to miss?

Just make sure you're not doing it because of who his father is.

All right, OK.

Or who he reminds you of.

Nate's death isn't on you.

Hell of an op, gents. Outstanding.

Thank you very much, sir.

Listen, obviously, most of the AAR

is gonna be about the chopper problems. Comms we obviously know about.

Intel turned out to be solid. Eight enemy KlAs,

including one HVT wearing an S-vest.

All clean, correct?

Roger.

Eight clean kills, sir.

That's good work.

Look, we should've brought him in for you.

I told you he'd choose surrender over martyrdom. Almost got everyone killed.

You just saved a woman from probably being tortured to death on the internet

in front of chat room trolls and budding sexual sadists

and her friends and loved ones.

You also, by the way, found time to rid the world

of one of its few dozen or so most evil people.

I call that a good night's work.

Yeah.

I' A year from now we'll all be gone

I Our friends will move away

I And they're going to better places

I But our friends will be gone away

I Nothing is as it has been

I And I miss your face like hell

I And I guess it's just as well
