GIVE ME THE WALLET.

NOW.

YOU SPEAK ENGLISH, MAN?

YOU MEAN, "DO I SPEAK ENGLISH?"

AND, AND THE ANSWER IS, YES, BETTER THAN MOST, SIR.

GIVE ME THE WATCH.

THIS, THIS WAS A, A PRESENT FROM MY WIFE.

IT IS OF NO MONETARY VALUE, PLEASE.

JUST HAND IT OVER, MAN!PLEASE! NO!

STAY DOWN!

man 1: PLEASE TAKE, NO NEED FOR A FIGHT.

man 2: SHUT UP! JUST, JUST GIVE IT TO ME, MAN!

HEY!

GET LOST OR GET SHOT.

THANK YOU, SIR. THANK YOU.

I... I DON'T KNOW WHO YOU ARE

BUT I AM FOREVER IN YOUR DEBT, SIR.

DON'T MENTION IT... PROFESSOR.

Budrick: THE JACK RUSSELL TERRIER

IS FUN-LOVING AND EXTREMELY INTELLIGENT.

WHY ARE YOU SHOWING ME THIS?

I THOUGHT IT MIGHT BE NICE IF WE GOT A PUPPY.

A PUPPY?

LOOK AT HIS LITTLE FACE.

[ sighs ] OH, I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU.

YOU THINK THAT IF YOU CAN CONVINCE ME TO GET A PUPPY

THAT I WON'T WANT TO HAVE A BABY.

WHAT?

NO, NO, NO. THAT'S RIDICULOUS.

YOU KNOW I WANT KIDS.

BUT NOW THAT YOU MENTION IT,

WE MIGHT BE SMART BY GETTING A PUPPY, YOU KNOW...

KIND OF LIKE A DRY RUN FOR CHILDREN.

OH, I SEE.

SO, IF I DO A GOOD JOB HOUSE TRAINING A PET

YOU MIGHT CONSIDER ME FOR THE MOTHER OF YOUR CHILD.

NO.

NO?

I mean, OF COURSE NOT.Harriet: I CANT EVEN BELIEVE YOU.

Budrick: HARRIET, THAT'S NOT WHAT I MEANT.

male voice: PATRICIA, GIVE HUG, A BIG HUG AND A KISS FROM ME

AND BE STRONG, HONEY.

I'LL BE HOME SOON. I LOVE YOU, [ inaudible ]

HEY. UH...

UH, COME IN.

JUST...

FILING SOME STUFF AWAY.

HOW'S YOUR MOM?

GOOD. SHE'S...

REALLY GOOD, ACTUALLY, YOU KNOW.

YOU'RE STILL WEARING HIS MIA BRACELET.

YEAH.

YOU'RE NOT FILING AWAY MEMORIES, HARM.

YOU'LL HAVE THOSE FOREVER.

[ knock at door ]

SIR. MA'AM.

THE ADMIRAL WANTS TO SEE YOU ASAP.

reporter: ANGRY PROTESTERS CLASHED WITH POLICE FOR A SECOND DAY

IN THE SUDANESE CAPITAL OF KHARTOUM.

LAST MONTH THE US DESTROYED

A SUSPECTED CHEMICAL WEAPONS FACTORY IN THE CITY.

BEARING SIMILAR[ inaudible ] BY THE US.

MANY SUDANESE HAVE TURNED AGAINST THEIR GOVERNMENT

WHICH IS NO ROOT SUPPORT OF TERRORIST ACTIVITIES.

SEVEN WEEKS AGO, THE SUDANESE PRESIDENT WAS ASSASSINATED.

NO ONE'S CLAIMED RESPONSIBILITY, BUT EVER SINCE THEN

TWO PARTIES HAVE BEEN FIGHTING FOR CONTROL.

IN THE SOUTH, GENERAL HYAD ZULEKE

LEADER OF THE SUDANESE FREEDOM PARTY.

OLD SCHOOL HARD-CORE.

IN THE NORTH,

AMBASSADOR KI MOSHAK, NEW SCHOOL.

POLITICALLY SAVVY.

GENERAL ZULEKE IS ALL MUSCLE.

AMBASSADOR MOSHAK IS ALL BRAINS.

SOUNDS LIKE THEY SHOULD GET TOGETHER.

PROBABLY WILL AT TEN PACES.

WHICH WOULD LEAVE ROOM FOR PROFESSOR DUBOTU

WHO'S THE HEART AND SOUL OF HIS COUNTRY,

A POET WHO SPEAKS FOR THE PEOPLE.

WHOEVER HE ENDORSES WINS THE ELECTION.

WHICH WAY IS HE LEANING?

NOBODY KNOWS.

SOUNDS LIKE HE SHOULD RUN FOR ELECTION.

THE PROFESSOR DESPISES POLITICS.

HE WAS SUPPOSED TO SIT DOWN

WITH OUR PRESIDENT LAST THURSDAY,

BUT HE NEVER SHOWED.

KIDNAPPED?

MOST LIKELY.

AMBASSADOR MOSHAK AND GENERAL ZULEKE

ARE, OF COURSE, BLAMING EACH OTHER.

Albert: SUDAN HAS A STRATEGIC IMPORTANCE TO THIS COUNTRY.

IT BORDERS LIBYA AND THE RED SEA.

IRAN HAS A BASE IN THE PORT OF SUAKIN.

GENERAL ZULEKE WILL NOT ALLOW

AN AMERICAN PRESENCE IN HIS COUNTRY.

AMBASSADOR MOSHAK WILL.

GUESS WHO WE'RE ROOTING FOR.

COMMANDER, I UNDERSTAND YOU'VE BEEN INVITED

TO AN EMBASSY PARTY AMBASSADOR MOSHAK

IS GIVING TO SOLIDIFY HIS SUPPORT.

YOU KNOW THE AMBASSADOR?

NOT REALLY. I TOOK HIM FOR A RIDE

IN A TOMCAT ONCE, PART OF THE PENTAGON'S PLAN

TO WOO HIM TO OUR SIDE.

AND THIS IS A PERFECT OPPORTUNITY

FOR THE TWO OF YOU TO LEARN

IF HE KNOWS ANYTHING ABOUT

THE PROFESSOR'S ABDUCTION.

Albert: THE AMBASSADOR LIKES TO SURROUND HIMSELF WITH MILITARY TYPES.

HE THINKS IT HELPS BOOST HIS IMAGE AS A LEADER.

SO YOU AND THE MAJOR WILL HAVE THE PERFECT COVER,

GOING IN AS YOURSELVES.

COVER FOR WHAT?

WE NEED YOU TO ACCESS THE EMBASSY'S COMPUTER SYSTEM.

YOU WANT US TO BREAK INTO A FOREIGN EMBASSY COMPUTER.

WHAT AREN'T YOU TELLING US, WEBB?

THIS HAD BETTER NOT BE ANOTHER SETUP.

SECNAV HAS APPROVED THIS OPERATION.

MacKenzie: WHEN'S THE PARTY?

1900 TONIGHT.

TONIGHT?

MY DRESS UNIFORM'S AT THE CLEANERS, SIR.

I DON'T HAVE A DRESS. I HAVEN'T DONE MY HAIR.

YOUR HAIR'S FINE, MAJOR,

AND WEBB'S TAKEN CARE OF THE DRESS.

YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW MY SIZE.

36, 24, 36. FIVE FOOT EIGHT PLUS.

130 POUNDS.

120, THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

[ TENSE MUSIC PLAYING ]

[ mellow music playing ]

I DIDN'T MEAN TO SAY ANYTHING TO OFFEND YOU.

I THINK YOU'RE GOING TO MAKE A GREAT MOTHER.

IT'S ME THAT I'M WORRIED ABOUT.

I DIDN'T HAVE THE GREATEST OF ROLE MODELS GROWING UP.

I THINK YOU'LL BE THE BEST FATHER.

REALLY?YEAH.

I, I'M JUST A LITTLE BIT SCARED, AND WHEN I GET SCARED

I SAY STUPID THINGS AND WHEN I SAY STUPID THINGS

I START TO RAMBLE.

YOU KNOW, SOME PEOPLE OVEREAT AND... OR SMOKE

AND ME, I JUST TEND TO RAMBLE.

I'LL JUST GO...

WHAT DID I SAY NOW?

Webb: THE RECEPTION WILL BE HELD IN THE BALLROOM.

MOSHAK'S OFFICE IS ON THE SECOND FLOOR, HERE.

THERE'S A FIRE ESCAPE DOOR HERE, BUT IT HAS AN ALARM ON IT.

AT 7:46 THERE WILL BE A SIX-SECOND POWER OUTAGE.

THAT'LL GIVE YOU ENOUGH TIME TO GET INTO THE STAIRWELL.

THEN ALL YOU HAVE TO DO

IS GET PAST THE SECURITY ROOM, HERE.

IS THAT ALL?

THERE'S A MAXIMUM OF TWO MEN

WATCHING THE MONITORS AT ANY ONE TIME.

IF YOU CAN GET THEM OUT OF THE ROOM, YOU'RE HOME FREE.

NOW, HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO DO THAT, WEBB?

[ soft music playing ]

[ Albert clears throat ]

THERE'S A COMPUTER IN THE AMBASSADOR'S OUTER OFFICE.

YOU'LL NEED TO REBOOT IT.

YOU'RE A REGULAR JAMES BOND, WEBB.

USE THIS DISK, THEN HOOK UP THIS CELL PHONE.

IT'S PROGRAMMED TO SPEED DIAL A MODEM

WHERE WE HAVE A DATA SPECIALIST WAITING.

YOU MEAN A HACKER.

AND DON'T BOTHER TRYING TO MAKE ANY PERSONAL CALLS.

IT'S ONLY WIRED FOR HIGH-SPEED MODEM TRANSFERS.

AND IF THE COMMANDER GETS CAUGHT?

HE'LL BE IN AND OUT IN TWO MINUTES.

THIS IS STRICTLY A VOLUNTARY ASSIGNMENT.

NEITHER ONE OF YOU HAVE TO DO IT IF YOU DON'T WANT TO.

I DIDN'T GET ALL DRESSED UP FOR NOTHING, SIR.

WELL, I'VE, UH... I ALREADY SHAVED TWICE TODAY, SIR, SO...

[ classical music playing ]

[ speaking foreign language ]

[ indistinct chatters ]

THANK YOU.

COMMANDER RABB.

AMBASSADOR MOSHAK.

IT'S A PLEASURE TO SEE YOU AGAIN, SIR.

GLAD YOU COULD MAKE IT.

THIS IS A COLLEAGUE OF MINE

MARINE CORPS MAJOR SARAH MACKENZIE

ALSO WITH THE JAG CORPS.

AH, WELCOME, MAJOR.

I'M SURE YOU MUST GET TIRED OF PEOPLE TELLING YOU

YOU DO NOT LOOK LIKE A MARINE.

NOT REALLY, SIR.

IF YOU'LL EXCUSE ME A MOMENT, I THINK I SEE SOMEONE I KNOW.

AH, CHAMPAGNE, MAJOR?

MM. THANK YOU.

IN MY COUNTRY FEW WOMEN BECOME LAWYERS,

NONE BECOME MARINES.

THAT'S TOO BAD.

I THINK YOU WOULD INTIMIDATE MOST OF THE MEN IN SUDAN

BUT I MUST ADMIT, I FIND AMERICAN WOMEN FASCINATING.

[ classical music playing ]

[ indistinct chatters ]

THANK YOU.

IT'S PAST 19:46.

WHAT TIME YOU GOT?

19:47 AND 16 SECONDS.

DO YOU THINK THE MISSION'S SCRUBBED?

MAYBE WE SHOULD CALL WEBB.

LET'S WAIT A FEW MORE MINUTES.

YOU WAIT. I'LL MAKE THE CALL.

[ electricity zaps ]

[ tray clatters ]

Moshak: LADIES AND GENTLEMAN

I REALLY HAVE TO PAY THAT ELECTRIC BILL.

[ crowd laugh ]

FIND OUT WHAT'S GOING ON.

WHO'S THAT?

STOP!

THIS IS A RESTRICTED AREA.

OH, YEAH?

WELL, THEN, WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?

I'M GOING TO HAVE TO ASK YOU TO RETURN

TO THE BALLROOM.

NO WAY. I'VE HAD ENOUGH

OF THOSE PEOPLE.

WHAT IS GOING ON?

I THINK SHE PASSED OUT.

SHE'S DRUNK.

WHAT DO YOU WANT ME TO DO WITH HER?

WE'LL TAKE HER OUT THE SERVICE ENTRANCE.

HANG ON. I'LL BE THERE TO HELP YOU.

TAKE HER ARM.man: OKAY.

[ MacKenzie moans ]

[ door creaks ]

[ suspense music playing ]

[ groaning ]

I, I, I THINK I'M GOING TO BE SICK.

[ MacKenzie coughs ]

STAY WITH HER.

I'M GOING UPSTAIRS.

[ computer beeping ]

[ sighs ]

COME ON, WEBB.

[ elevator bell dings ]

[ bell dings ]

I THINK SOMEBODY SPIKED THE PUNCH.

PERHAPS IT WOULD BE BEST IF YOU LEFT NOW, MA'AM.

I'LL HAVE YOUR CAR BROUGHT AROUND FOR YOU.

OH, NO, NO. I'M FEELING MUCH BETTER NOW.

IF YOU COULD JUST SHOW ME THE WAY BACK TO THE PARTY.

I'M AFRAID I HAVE ORDERS TO ESCORT YOU OUT.

IS THIS HOW AMBASSADOR MOSHAK TREATS HIS GUESTS?

WELL, IS IT?

YOU KNOW, PERHAPS I SHOULD HAVE A TALK WITH HIM

ABOUT HIS SO-CALLED HOSPITALITY.

[ man on radio ] WHAT IS GOING ON?

SHE'S GOING BACK TO THE PARTY.

[ man on radio ] STOP HER.

WAIT!

[ computer beeps ]

FINALLY.

WAIT HERE. STOP!

AMBASSADOR.

-[ gunshot ] -[ crowd exclaim ]

[ ominous music playing ]

man: STOP! MacKenzie: AMBASSADOR.

COOPERATE AND NO ONE WILL GET HURT.

IT'S A LITTLE LATE FOR THAT.

WE WILL BE SPLITTING YOU UP INTO GROUPS

AND PUTTING YOU IN SECURE ROOMS.

NOW, I KNOW WE HAVE A NUMBER OF WAR HEROES HERE TONIGHT

BUT, I ASSURE YOU, THIS IS NOT THE TIME

FOR SENSELESS ACTS OF VALOR.

man 1: TAKE THEM AWAY.

man 2: GO, COME WITH ME. THIS WAY.

[ indistinct chatters ]

[ suspense music playing ]

man 3: MOVE IT.

man 4: COME ON, COME HERE. man 5: QUITE.

man 6: KEEP GOING, KEEP GOING.

HARRIET, ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?

NO. I FEEL TERRIBLE.

I CAN'T KEEP ANYTHING IN MY STOMACH.

YOU WANT ME TO DRIVE YOU HOME?

[ telephone rings ]NO. I'LL BE OKAY.

IT'S PROBABLY ONLY MORNING SICKNESS.

WOW, COMING THRU.

JAG, LIEUTENANT ROBERT.Harriet: EXCUSE ME.

BUD, IT'S HARM.

SIR, IT'S COMMANDER RABB.

HE'S ON LINE ONE.

HE'S GOT MORNING SICKNESS.

WHAT?

UH, I MEAN, UH...

COMMANDER, YOU'RE ON THE SPEAKER PHONE

WITH ADMIRAL CHEGWIDDEN, SIR.

WHAT'S GOING ON, COMMANDER?

SHOTS HAVE BEEN FIRED, SIR.

THE GUESTS ARE BEING ROUNDED UP BY THE EMBASSY GUARDS

AND LOCKED IN ROOMS.

CALL D.C. POLICE, SECRET SERVICE, SECNAV.

TELL THEM WHAT'S GOING ON.

AYE, AYE, SIR. WHERE ARE YOU NOW, COMMANDER?

WELL, SIR, I'M STILL IN THE AMBASSADOR'S OFFICE

PURSUING WEBB'S WACKY PLAN.

WELL, WHAT ABOUT THE MAJOR?

SHE'S BEEN ROUNDED UP WITH THE OTHERS, SIR.

STAY ON THE LINE.

WHAT'S OUR STATUS?

EVERYTHING LOOKS SECURE, SIR.

THINGS ARE GOING TO GET VERY INTENSE IN THE NEXT FEW MINUTES.

SO STAY RELAXED AND FOLLOW THE PLAN

AND CALL THE TV STATION.

WHAT'S WRONG WITH THAT CAMERA?

THAT'S THE AMBASSADOR'S OUTER OFFICE.

SEND SOMEONE TO CHECK IT OUT.

COMMANDER, DO NOT DO ANYTHING TO EXACERBATE THE SITUATION.

DON'T WORRY, SIR. YOU KNOW ME.

YES, I DO.

[ elevator bell dings ]

[ suspense music playing ]

[ footsteps approaching ]

[ siren wailing ]

reporter: JUST MOMENTS AGO A NUMBER OF POLICE VEHICLES

CONVERGE OUTSIDE THE SUDANESE EMBASSY

WHERE AMBASSADOR MOSHAK IS HOLDING RECEPTION THIS EVENING.

T HE POLICE ARE IN THE PROCESS OF CLOSING...

YES? WEBB.

DID YOU EXPECT THIS?

SOMEONE TAKING OVER THE EMBASSY?

OF COURSE NOT.

IF YOU DID, YOUR ASS IS MINE.

reporter: ...CALLS AT THIS TIME.

THIS IS JILL WARRINGTON, REPORTING LIVE FOR CNN.

[ tense music playing ]

[ sighs ]

[ sighs ]

are we ready? [ speaks in foreign language ]

NOTIFY THE TV VAN.

TELL THEM WE ARE SENDING THEM A MESSAGE.

THEN PREPARE TO BROADCAST.

HOW ARE YOU FEELING, AMBASSADOR?

LET'S GET THIS OVER WITH.

MY NAME IS COLONEL SHAHALA.

I HAVE TAKEN OVER THE SUDANESE EMBASSY

ON BEHALF OF GENERAL HYAD ZULEKE AND THE SUDANESE FREEDOM PARTY.

WE HAVE 38 INDIVIDUALS IN OUR PROTECTION

WHO WILL BE RELEASED UNHARMED

PROVIDED OUR DEMANDS ARE MET.

NOW, BEFORE THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT DECIDES TO LAUNCH

A RESCUE OPERATION, YOU SHOULD BE AWARE

THAT WE ARE PREPARED TO DIE

AND TAKE EVERYONE IN THIS EMBASSY WITH US.

I AM CONFIDENT, THEREFORE

THAT WE CAN REACH A PEACEFUL RESOLUTION.

YOU WATCHING THIS?

AS A GESTURE OF GOOD FAITH

I AM RELEASING AMBASSADOR MOSHAK

SO THAT HE MAY RECEIVE MEDICAL TREATMENT.

Moshak:NO.

I'M NOT LEAVING.

THIS IS MY EMBASSY, AND THESE ARE MY PEOPLE.

I'M NOT LEAVING THIS EMBASSY UNTIL EVERYONE ELSE IS FREED.

THEN YOU WILL NOT LEAVE UNTIL WE GET WHAT WE WANT.

reporter: WHAT YOU JUST SEEN WAS ALIVE--

THE AMBASSADOR'S A BRAVE MAN.

OR STUPID.

SOMETHING'S NOT RIGHT ABOUT THIS.

THEY TALK ABOUT MEETING THEIR DEMANDS

AND THEY DON'T MAKE ANY. WHY NOT?

WEBB. WHEN?

I'LL BE THERE.

WHERE ARE YOU GOING?

A D.O.D. CRISIS MEETING.

I'LL KEEP YOU INFORMED.

DAMN RIGHT YOU WILL, FROM THIS OFFICE.

EXCUSE ME?

MY PEOPLE ARE UP TO THEIR EARS IN THIS BECAUSE OF YOU.

YOU'RE NOT GOING ANYWHERE UNTIL I KNOW THEY'RE SAFE.

ARE YOU KIDDING?

DO I LOOK LIKE I'M KIDDING?

WHAT IS THE STATUS ON THE CAMERA, ANASH?

IT'S BROKEN, CORPORAL.

SEE IF YOU CAN FIX IT. QUICKLY.

OKAY.

ALL RIGHT. LET'S GO.

HEY!

THIS WAY. THIS WAY.

COME ON. ARE YOU COMING JUST--

OKAY.

WANT A DRINK?

NO.

IT MAY HELP CALM YOU.

I DON'T WANT TO BE CALM.

RELAX, THE WORST PART IS OVER.

YOU DID WELL.

THE WORST PART?

EVERY LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCY AND MILITARY GROUP

IN WASHINGTON NOW HAS THIS PLACE SURROUNDED.

OF COURSE, THEY DO THAT WAS THE PLAN.

DON'T BE GETTING COLD FEET, COLONEL.

EVERYTHING'S GOING AS EXPECTED.

RIGHT NOW, THE ENTIRE WORLD IS POINTING FINGERS

AND THROWING ACCUSATIONS AT GENERAL ZULEKE.

HE'LL DENY EVERYTHING, OF COURSE

BUT THE DAMAGE WILL BE DONE.

SO HERE'S TO SUDAN'S NEXT LEADER...

PRESIDENT MOSHAK.

I LIKE THE SOUND OF IT.

[ phone rings ]

COLONEL SHOHALA.

THE HOSTAGE NEGOTIATOR

FROM THE SECRET SERVICE IS CALLING.

RIGHT ON TIME.

HE'LL WANT YOU TO RELEASE THE HOSTAGES.

WHAT SHOULD I TELL THEM?

TELL THEM NOTHING.

IT'S TIME FOR ACT TWO.

SHUT DOWN THE SWITCHBOARD.

[ police siren wailing ]

[ helicopter whirring ]

[ door closes ]

[ punches buttons ]

[ sighs ]

THIS MESSAGE IS NOT ONLY FOR MY SUDANESE BROTHERS

AND SISTERS, BUT IT IS FOR EVERY OPPRESSED PEOPLE

AROUND THE GLOBE.

AMBASSADOR MOSHAK CALLS HIMSELF A MAN OF THE PEOPLE

BUT HE'S NOTHING MORE THAN A PUPPET

OF THE AMERICAN GOVERNMENT.

GENERAL HYAD ZULEKE IS THE ONLY MAN

WITH THE COURAGE, THE POWER AND THE KNOWLEDGE

TO SAVE OUR COUNTRY AND OUR PEOPLE FROM BEING DESTROYED.

DON'T LISTEN TO HIM.

GENERAL ZULEKE IS THE ENEMY.

HE MURDERED PROFESSOR DUBOTU TO SILENCE HIM

AND NOW HE'S GOING TO MURDER ME, TOO.

I OFFERED TO SHOW YOU THAT WE ARE MERCIFUL

BY RELEASING THE AMBASSADOR, BUT HE REFUSED.

NOW I WILL SHOW YOU THAT WE ARE DETERMINED.

[ gunshot ]

WE LOST PICTURE UP HERE.

WHAT'S HAPPENING?

WELL, FIND OUT!

THEY STOPPED BROADCAST.

I CAN SEE THAT!

[ footsteps approaching ]

[ both sigh ]

WHAT'S HAPPENING?

IT'S A SCAM.

THERE ARE NO TERRORISTS.

THE SHOOTING WAS FAKED.

IT'S ALL A PLOY TO MAKE THE AMBASSADOR LOOK LIKE A HERO

AND DISCREDIT GENERAL ZULEKE.

[ gunshots ]

EVERYBODY STAY PUT.

THIS IS AMBASSADOR MOSHAK.

GENERAL ZULEKE'S TERRORISTS HAVE ATTEMPTED

TO TAKE OVER THE EMBASSY.

WE HAVE DISARMED SOME OF THEM

BUT THERE ARE SEVERAL STILL AT LARGE.

IF MY PEOPLE ARE WATCHING BACK HOME

I ASSURE YOU WE WILL NOT LET

THIS SENSELESS ACT OF VIOLENCE GO UNAVENGED.

WHAT GENERAL ZULEKE HAS TRIED TO DESTROY

WILL BECOME EVEN MORE POWERFUL.

OUR COUNTRY WILL BE UNITED.

WE WILL OVERCOME OUR ENEMIES.

GENERAL ZULEKE WILL BE OVERTHROWN

AND THE SUDANESE FREEDOM PARTY WILL BE CRUSHED

ENDING THEIR REIGN OF TERROR

AND I WILL BRING PEACE TO SUDAN.

YOU HAVE MY PROMISE.

YEAH, I BET HE'S GOT A LOT OF PEOPLE FOOLED.

MM-HMM.

GET HIM OUT OF HERE.

HE REALLY KILLED HIM.

YEP.

THE ONLY WAY THIS THING WORKS

IS IF YOU HAVE AT LEAST ONE BODY.

HARM, WE'RE THE ONLY ONES WHO KNOW THIS IS A SCAM.

[ dramatic music playing ]

THE TERRORIST ATTACK AT THE SUDANESE EMBASSY

IN WASHINGTON, D.C.,

APPEARS TO BE THE LATEST ACTIVE AGGRESSION IN AN ONGOING JIHAD

AIMED AGAINST THE UNITED STATES

LAST MONTH THE AMERICAN EMBASSY IS INTENSE

AND THE[ inaudible ] WERE BOMBED.

KILLING OVER 260 PEOPLE

AND WOUNDED SEVERAL THOUSANDS.

BUT THIS IS THE FIRST TERRORIST ATTACK ON US SOIL...

YES, SIR. I'LL KEEP YOU INFORMED.

reporter: ...AUTHORITIES THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY ON FULL ALERT.

FOUR IRANIAN MIRAGE FIGHTERS

JUST LEFT THE SUDANESE PORT OF SUAKIN

AND ARE HEADING TOWARD GENERAL ZULEKE'S GARRISON.

IF THEY ATTACK, THERE'S A CHANCE THE ISRAELIS

COULD LEND THE GENERAL A HAND.

WE'RE GOING TO HAVE AN ALL-OUT HOLY WAR

THAT COULD ESCALATE BEYOND AFRICA

AND DRAW IN HALF THE MIDDLE EAST.

IT WAS A SIMPLE OPERATION, ADMIRAL.

I HAD NO WAY OF FORESEEING THIS.

[ knock at door ]

SIR, THE SECRETARY OF THE NAVY IS ON HIS WAY OVER HERE.

LOOKS LIKE YOUR PEOPLE ARE IN THE WRONG PLACE

AT THE WRONG TIME AGAIN ,ADMIRAL.

YOU APPROVED THIS OPERATION, SIR.

WHAT I APPROVED WAS A SIMPLE PIECE

OF INTELLIGENCE GATHERING

BUT YOUR PEOPLE HAVE AN UNCANNY KNACK

FOR BEING WHERE THE TROUBLE IS.

I PREFER TO THINK OF THEM AS WHERE THEY'RE MOST NEEDED.

WE'VE GOT A NASTY SITUATION HERE, A.J.

AND WHAT HAPPENS IN THAT EMBASSY COULD LEAD TO A CONFLICT

THAT MAKES DESERT STORM LOOK LIKE GRENADA.

WHAT'D YOU HAVE IN MIND, SIR?

THE POLICE AND THE FEDS NEED ANY INTEL YOU CAN GET

FROM YOUR PEOPLE.

THE SOONER THEY DIFFUSE THIS SITUATION, THE BETTER.

IF WE COULD GET PERMISSION FROM THE AMBASSADOR

WE COULD SEND IN A DELTA FORCE TEAM

END THIS IN EIGHT SECONDS.

BUT WE CAN'T. THAT EMBASSY'S CONSIDERED SUDANESE SOIL.

WE GO IN THERE WITH GUNS BLAZING, IT'S AN ACT OF WAR.

AND THIS ISN'T?

I AM ON MY WAY TO THE D.O.D. MEETING.

KEEP ME INFORMED.

YES, SIR.

[ suspense music playing ]

[ sighs ] DO WE HAVE A GAME PLAN HERE

OR ARE WE JUST IMPROVISING?

I SAY WE HEAD FOR THE ROOF.

GUARANTEED THERE'S AT LEAST

HALF A DOZEN CHOPPERS IN THE AREA.

SOMEBODY WILL GIVE US A LIFT.

WHAT ABOUT THE REMAINING HOSTAGES?

WELL, THEY DON'T KNOW ANYTHING

SO THEY'RE IN NO IMMEDIATE DANGER.

I THINK WE SHOULD SPLIT UP.

THIS EMBASSY IS FILLED WITH VIDEO CAMERAS.

WE DOUBLE OUR CHANCES OF ONE OF US GETTING OUT

IF WE DIVIDE THEIR FORCES.

ALL RIGHT.

YOU HEAD FOR THE ROOF.

I'LL TRY THIS BASEMENT.

OKAY.

NO, I'M BETTER OFF WITHOUT IT.

YOU BE CAREFUL.

ALWAYS.

OH, THERE YOU ARE.

COULD YOU SHOW ME THE WAY TO THE LADIES ROOM?

OH, I THINK I'M GOING TO BE SICK.

[ groans ]

GET UP NOW, OR I WILL SHOOT YOU.

[ man groans ]

[ keys clangs ]

PROFESSOR DUBOTU.

AND YOU ARE?

LIEUTENANT COMMANDER HARMON RABB

UNITED STATES NAVY,

JUDGE ADVOCATE GENERAL CORPS.

THEY SENT A LAWYER TO RESCUE ME?

YOU SHOT HIM.

HE SHOT AT ME FIRST.

AND THAT MAKES IT RIGHT?

VIOLENCE ONLY BEGETS VIOLENCE.

THANK YOU.

HOW WELL DO YOU KNOW THE LAYOUT OF THE EMBASSY?

I KNOW THIS ROOM VERY WELL.

THE REST, NOT SO WELL.

AMBASSADOR MOSHAK STAGED

A TERRORIST TAKEOVER OF THE EMBASSY.

HE SHOT COLONEL SHOHALA

TO MAKE HIMSELF LOOK LIKE A HERO TO YOUR PEOPLE.

AND PEOPLE WONDER WHY I REFUSE

TO BE INVOLVED IN POLITICS.

WELL LIKE IT OR NOT, PROFESSOR, YOU'RE INVOLVED NOW.

SINCE YOUR DISAPPEARANCE

YOUR COUNTRYMEN HAVE BEEN FIGHTING EACH OTHER.

[ sighs ] MY COUNTRYMEN HAVE BEING FIGHTING

FOR AS LONG AS I CAN REMEMBER.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

I'M HELPING THIS MAN.

YOUR COUNTRY WANTS AMBASSADOR MOSHAK

TO BE PRESIDENT BECAUSE HE PRETENDS

TO BE AMERICAN-FRIENDLY.

COMPARED TO GENERAL ZULEKE

HE IS THE LESSER OF TWO EVILS, BUT HE IS EVIL NONETHELESS.

WE JUST WANT TO HELP KEEP THE PEACE.

IT MAY BE TOO LATE FOR THAT.

IN AMERICA

YOU GO TO WAR, BUT IN MY COUNTRY...

WAR COMES TO YOU.

SHOULDN'T WE BE CALLING THE POLICE?

WHAT ABOUT THE TERRORISTS?

PLEASE, MAJOR. I SUSPECT YOU AND COMMANDER RABB

ARE ON TO MY OPERATION

SO LET'S NOT PRETEND, SHALL WE?

I THOUGHT MUSLIMS DIDN'T DRINK.

YES, I'VE PICKED UP SOME NASTY HABITS SINCE I CAME TO AMERICA.

SOMETHING TELLS ME YOU WERE NASTY

BEFORE YOU CAME HERE.

YOU KNOW, YOU CAN'T HOLD ME HERE.

SIT DOWN.

I'M A MAJOR IN THE UNITED STATES MARINE CORPS

AND AN AMERICAN CITIZEN.

THIS EMBASSY IS CONSIDERED SUDANESE SOIL

NOW SEAT DOWN.

[ sighs ]Moshak: THANK YOU.

[ groans ]

PROFESSOR.

TAKE IT.

I'M SORRY. I, I DON'T BELIEVE IN VIOLENCE, COMMANDER.

OUR LIVES MAY DEPEND ON IT, SIR.

I'M VERY WELL AWARE OF THAT.

PROFESSOR, WITH RESPECT,

IF SOMEBODY STARTS SHOOTING AT YOU

YOU TURN THE OTHER CHEEK

YOU'RE GOING TO GET YOUR HEAD BLOWN OFF.

NOW TAKE THE WEAPON.

I'M SORRY... BUT I CAN'T.

Moshak: DID YOU FIND HIM?

NO, SIR, AND WE HAVE LOST CONTACT WITH SABI AND HUSH.

YOUR COMMANDER?

RIGHT NOW, YOUR MEN ARE DISAPPEARING ONE BY ONE.

SOON, YOU'LL BE THE ONLY ONE LEFT.

THAT'S USUALLY WHEN HE TURNS OUT THE LIGHTS

AND COMES AFTER YOU ALL ALONE

IN THE DARK.

YOU AMERICANS WATCH TOO MUCH TELEVISION.

FIND ME COMMANDER RABB.

Moshak: NOW!

I'M ON MY WAY, AMBASSADOR.

DON'T SAY I DIDN'T WARN YOU.

NICELY DONE, COMMANDER.

I'LL BE WAITING FOR YOU...

WITH THE MAJOR.

Moshak: SAY SOMETHING, MAJOR.

[ grunts slightly ]

ANYTHING WILL DO.

[ groans ]

MAC?

[ grunts ][ groans ]

[ groans ]Rabb: MAC? MAC?

I'M AFRAID THEY DON'T MAKE MARINES

LIKE THE USED TO, COMMANDER.

YOU'RE A DEAD MAN, MOSHAK.

YES, YES. WELL, YOU BETTER HURRY

'CAUSE I DON'T THINK MAJOR MACKENZIE'S

GOING TO ENJOY THE NEXT FEW MINUTES.

DON'T DO IT, COMMANDER.

HE'S PLAYING ON YOUR RAGE.

HE'S COUNTING ON YOUR RETALIATING WITH VIOLENCE.

WELL, I WON'T DISAPPOINT HIM.

YOU'LL BE WALKING INTO A TRAP.

I COULD USE YOUR HELP.

[ tense music playing ]

[ sighs ]

[ gun clicks ]

BE CAREFUL.

[ sighs ]

[ monitor beeps ]

YES.

DO NOT... MOVE.

[ suspense music playing ]

[ indistinct chatters ]

Moshak: WE DON'T NEED TO WORRY ABOUT THE LIGHTS,

DO WE, MAJOR?

THIS IS STANDARD POLICE PROCEDURE

IN THESE SITUATIONS, CORRECT?

AH, COMMANDER RABB.

CORPORAL, WOULD YOU BRING DUBOTU HERE?

MAC, YOU OKAY?

YEAH, HE HITS LIKE A GIRL.

WOULD YOU LIKE A DRINK, COMMANDER?

NO, THANK YOU.

BUT, UH...

I TELL YOU, I WOULD LIKE A CIGAR IF YOU HAVE ONE.

OH... HELP YOURSELF.

THANKS, AMBASSADOR. YOU'RE WELCOME.

MMM...

VERY NICE.

[ sniffs ]Moshak: THEY'RE CUBAN.

YOU'LL BE SURPRISED BY THE MULTITUDE OF SINS,

ONE CAN HIDE IN A DIPLOMATIC POUCH.

ONE OF THE MANY ADVANTAGES OF BEING THE AMBASSADOR.

IT APPEARS TO BE SOMEONE IN THE WINDOW

BUT WE DON'T KNOW IF IT'S A TERRORIST OR A HOSTAGE.

THE FIGURE IS WEARING WHAT LOOKS LIKE A MILITARYUNIFORM

AND IT APPEARS TO BE LIGHTING A CIGARETTE OR A CIGAR.

SIR, THAT'S A NAVY DRESS UNIFORM

AND THOSE ARE JAG SHOULDER BOARDS.

Budrick: THAT'S GOT TO BE COMMANDER RABB.

Albert: WHAT THE HELL'S HE DOING?

LOOKS LIKE HE'S TRYING TO SIGNAL US, THAT'S MORSE CODE.

Webb: WHAT'S HE TRYING TO SAY?

P... W... R.

YOU BEHAVE LIKE A MAN WHO'S NEVER LIT A CIGAR.

TRY THIS ONE.

[ soft chuckle ]

POWER.

HE WANTS US TO TURN THE POWER BACK ON.

WHY?

WHO CARES?! PUT THE DAMN POWER BACK ON!

PUT THE POWER BACK ON.

SO YOU'RE PLANNING ON KILLING PROFESSOR DUBOTU, HUH?

EVENTUALLY.

THE PROFESSOR WILL REMAIN A GUEST OF THE EMBASSY

FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS UNTIL THINGS HAVE SETTLED

AND THEN HIS BODY WILL BE FOUND IN A MOTEL ROOM.

ALONG WITH THIS.

[ safety knob whirring ]

HE WILL HAVE SUCCUMBED TO THE DEADLY EBOLA VIRUS

WHICH HE WILL HAVE BEEN SMUGGLING

OUT OF THE COUNTRY FOR GENERAL ZULEKE, OF COURSE.

MURDERING HIM IN COLD BLOOD ISN'T ENOUGH?

YOU HAVE TO DISCREDIT HIS REPUTATION, AS WELL.

WHENEVER FORCED TO ELIMINATE AN OPPONENT

SUCH AS THE PROFESSOR, ONE RUNS THE RISK OF CREATING A MARTYR.

I'M SORRY TO HAVE BEEN SO MUCH TROUBLE.

AH, SPEAK OF THE DEVIL.

WE WERE JUST TALKING ABOUT YOU, PROFESSOR.

SO I OVERHEARD.

SO...

Dubotu: THIS IS YOUR NEW LEADER. [ electricity zaps ]

[ security camera beeps ]

[ monitors zap ]

reporter: WE'RE GOING TO INTERRUPT THIS BROADCAST TO GO LIVE

TO SOME IMAGES WE'VE JUST RECEIVED

FROM INSIDE THE SUDANESE EMBASSY.

NOW, WE BELIEVE THIS...

THAT'S COMMANDER RABB AND MAJOR MACKENZIE.

reporter: THE AMBASSADOR APPEARS TO BE IN THE OFFICE

WITH AT LEAST FOUR OTHER PEOPLE

ARE YOU GETTING ALL THIS?

TAKE A LOOK ON HIS DESK.

IT'S ON HIS DESK.

WE NEED TO GET THE CBIRF UNIT ON THE SCENE.

THERE WERE RUMORS FLOATING AROUND THE INTEL COMMUNITY

THAT THE AMBASSADOR HAD SHOWN SOME INTEREST

IN BIOCHEMICAL WEAPONS.

A FEW WEEKS LATER, SOMEBODY RIPPED OFF SOME EBOLA VIRUS

FROM A RESEARCH LAB IN DELAWARE.

YOU KNEW THIS, AND YOU ALLOWED MY PEOPLE TO GO IN THERE?

THEY WERE JUST RUMORS.

WE NEED HARD FACT.

WE NEVER EXPECTED THEM TO HAVE IT IN THE EMBASSY.

THIS WAS NEVER ABOUT THE MISSING PROFESSOR, WAS IT?

IT WAS ABOUT USING MY JAG OFFICERS TO DO YOUR DIRTY WORK.

YOU'RE JUMPING TO CONCLUSIONS...

I'LL JUMP TO MORE THAN THAT

IF YOU DON'T GET MY PEOPLE OUT OF THERE, NOW!

WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO, HIT ME AGAIN?

LIEUTENANT, WOULD YOU PLEASE EXCUSE US?

AYE, SIR.

WE GOT TO GET IN THERE, NOW.

YOU THINK YOUR VIRUS WILL KNOW THE DIFFERENCE

BETWEEN BLACKS AND ARABS?

IT WILL KILL EVERYONE WITHOUT PREJUDICE.

[ door opens ]

AMBASSADOR...

WHAT IS IT?

HOW...?

[ tense music playing ]

THEY'VE TAPPED INTO THE SECURITY CAMERAS.

VERY CLEVER, COMMANDER.

IT'S ALL OVER, AMBASSADOR.

Duboto: NO!

THE WHOLE WORLD HAS SEEN YOUR BETRAYAL.

Rabb: YOU'LL BE ARRESTED FOR MURDER, KIDNAPPING

AND TERRORISM.SHUT UP.

YOU'LL SPEND TEN LIFETIMES IN PRISON, MOSHAK.

HE'S RIGHT, YOU KNOW.

YOUR ONLY CHANCE IS TO RUN.

MAYBE THE IRANIAN EMBASSY

WILL GRANT YOU SANCTUARY, MIGHT EVEN HELP YOU

WITH SAFE PASSAGE OUT OF THE COUNTRY.

BUT YOU GOT TO GO NOW

WHILE YOU STILL CAN.

GET MY CAR READY.man on radio: YES, SIR.

AFTER YOU, MAJOR.

YOU DON'T NEED HER. LEAVE HER HERE.

THE MAJOR'S TAKING A LITTLE TRIP.

HAVE YOU EVER BEEN TO AFRICA, MAJOR?

IF THEY TRY TO LEAVE, KILL THEM.

YOUR BOSS JUST LEFT YOU HOLDING THE BAG.

HOW'S IT FEEL?

SO THIS IS WHAT YOU WANT TO BE?

A PUPPET TO A RUTHLESS CRIMINAL?

NO...

THERE HAS BEEN ENOUGH KILLING.

OUR PEOPLE ARE STARVING

STRUGGLING TO SURVIVE EVERY DAY

WITH NO FOOD, NO MEDICINE

NO HOPE.

AND YOU...

YOU'RE SENTENCING THEM TO DEATH,

YOUR OWN BROTHERS AND SISTERS.

WHAT LIES HAS HE OFFERED YOU?

MONEY?

POWER?

THE SAME LIES HE OFFERED COLONEL SHOHALA.

AND NOW HE'S DEAD.

YOU SEE, COMMANDER?

THERE IS AN ALTERNATIVE.

UNFORTUNATELY, NOT FOR MEN LIKE MOSHAK.

[ dramatic music playing ]

THEY'LL NEVER LET YOU DRIVE OUT OF HERE.

THEY WILL IF I HAVE YOU.

YEAH, WELL, I'M A MARINE.

MY LIFE IS EXPENDABLE.

AMERICA DOES NOT NEGOTIATE WITH TERRORISTS.

WE SHALL SEE.

FREEZE, MOSHAK!

LET HER GO. IT'S OVER.

I WOULDN'T SHOOT IF I WERE YOU, COMMANDER.

TOO MUCH TO THE LEFT, YOU HIT YOUR DATE.

TOO MUCH TO THE RIGHT, YOU UNLEASH A DEADLY VIRUS.

EITHER WAY, THE GIRL DIES.

[ gunshot ]

[ groans ]

MacKenzie: HARM! INCOMING!

DON'T EVER HIT A LADY...

ESPECIALLY IF SHE'S A MARINE.

ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?

I'M FINE.

GOOD.

GOOD.

ALL THIS VIOLENCE AND FOR WHAT?

MY PEOPLE WILL STILL SLAUGHTER EACH OTHER.

WHAT IF YOU SPOKE TO THEM?

WOULD THEY LISTEN TO YOU?

COULD YOU STOP THE FIGHTING?

MAYBE.

THE AMBASSADOR HAS BEEN BROADCASTING HIS PROPAGANDA

FROM THAT PODIUM ALL NIGHT.

IT'S YOUR TURN, PROFESSOR.

I'M TRYING TO FIND OUT ABOUT COMMANDER HARMON RABB, JR.

AND MAJOR SARAH MACKENZIE.

ADMIRAL CHEGWIDDEN WANTS TO KNOW HOW THEY ARE.

ARE YOU CERTAIN?

THANKS.

ARE THEY OKAY? UH, YEAH.

THEN CAN I TALK TO YOU FOR ONE SECOND?

UH, NOT RIGHT NOW.

PLEASE? IT'S IMPORTANT.

IS IT ABOUT WHAT'S GOING ON AT THE EMBASSY?

NO, BUT...

IT'S NOT IMPORTANT NOW. THANK YOU.

WEBB'S SUPPOSED TO BE ON SITE.

HAVE HIM CALL ME.

HAVE YOU HEARD ANYTHING?

INITIAL REPORTS ARE THAT THERE ARE

NO ADDITIONAL CASUALTIES, SIR.

IT IS IMPORTANT NOW,

MORE THAN EVER,

FOR US TO COME TOGETHER AS A PEOPLE,

NORTH AND SOUTH, MUSLIM AND CHRISTIAN

BLACK AND ARAB, EVERYONE.

FOR IF WE ALLOW

THE FORCES OF EVIL AND DESTRUCTION TO CONSUME US,

WE ARE ALL SURELY DOOMED.

THEY DID IT, SIR.

YES, LIEUTENANT LOOKS LIKE THEY DID.

[ tranquil music playing ]

YOU ALL RIGHT, LIEUTENANT?

I... I THINK I'M PREGNANT, SIR.

THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING, COMMANDER.

YOU ARE ALWAYS WELCOME IN OUR COUNTRY.

WELL, LOOKS LIKE I MISSED ONE HELL OF A PARTY.

THAT'S GOVERNMENT PROPERTY.

SO BILL ME.

WEBB, NEXT TIME YOU'RE THINKING

ABOUT ASKING US FOR HELP, DON'T.
