You wanted to see me, sir?

Close the hatch.

I just got off the phone with the deputy director of the CIA.

He's got a report from the station chief in Ciudad del Este.

Mac has vanished somewhere in the hinterlands of Paraguay.

Is she alive?

Unknown.

Webb?

You knew she was with him?

Well, I knew he sweet -talked her into going to Paraguay with him as his

pregnant wife.

If he got her killed... And he's probably dead as well, and you won't

track him down.

If she's dead, there'll be some sort of a claim of responsibility. If she's

alive, there'll be a demand.

Ransom. A prisoner exchange interview with Mike Wallace. This isn't about

No. I haven't asked yet, sir. Then don't. Admiral, I can't stay here and do

nothing.

Send me T .A .D. to Paraguay, sir. You're needed here.

That's not acceptable, sir.

Excuse me?

We're talking about Mac, Admiral.

All right, make your case. I can do jack business in Paraguay, sir. Such as?

International military education and training like I did in Russia. Look how

well that turned out. I can find her, sir. How? I'll find a way.

Then I request emergency leave, sir.

Denied.

Then I quit, sir.

Consider my commission resigned and my status as terminal leave.

Paperwork will be on your desk in the hour.

Do what you gotta do.

Commander.

You're willing to give up your career and possibly your life to get her back.

What if you're successful?

What if you can bring her home?

What are you willing to risk to keep her?

I haven't thought it through, sir.

These have no use to me dead.

We were forced to hurt him badly.

It's amazing the amount of pain stored in a car battery.

I offered to put you in his place, but he would not hear of it.

He must love you very much.

Yes, he must.

Don't hurt him anymore.

Please, I beg of you, spare him.

Please do not kneel before me.

There will be no more pain today.

Thank God.

Yes. Praise be to Allah, the compassionate. He has given each of you

day.

Perhaps you can spare him a repeater today.

I'll do anything.

Then just answer these questions. Who is he?

My husband.

Well, your husband treats you very well.

Yes. You have just contributed to the war effort.

I will sell these stones to buy arms.

Now, who is the man you were trying to rescue?

He owes us money.

Really?

He must owe you a lot of money for you to kill six of my men to get him back.

Unfortunately, he is dead.

Now, I wanted to ask you, you're wearing the same clothes in both these

photographs, and your hair, the same.

Now, what are the chances of that happening?

Both those photographs were taken right after my wedding.

If you had answered my questions truthfully, you would have spared your

more pain.

But perhaps you do not love him as he does you.

Excuse me, I'm looking for Edward Hardy, Harmon Rabb.

He's here, sir.

I was told to expect you, Commander Rabb.

What can I do for you?

I need help finding a couple friends.

What's your security clearance?

Well, it was high enough to get through to your boss back at Langley.

High enough that he accepted my offer of help.

How well are you acquainted with the situation down here?

Only what I've read in the papers.

Triple frontiers, as lawless as Tombstone was 100 years ago.

Except Wyatt Earp didn't have to deal with terrorists and drug dealers armed

with automatic weapons.

It's a dangerous place, I know that.

A lot of people missing down here.

Recently, two British missionaries were taken hostage and held for ransom.

You ever drink caña?

Not at 8 .30 in the morning.

It's a mixture of honey and distilled sugar cane.

Nasty stuff.

You know who I'm looking for?

Yes.

Will you help me find him?

All right, you won't talk to me. I'll tell you what I know.

United States Marine Corps Lieutenant Colonel Sarah McKenzie, a JAG lawyer,

volunteered to help recover 100 stolen Stinger missiles. There's no way we used

her. If armed U .S. uniformed personnel are caught operating without host

country knowledge, it's an act of war.

You must be mistaken about the colonel's whereabouts.

You and I both know you bend that rule when it suits your purpose.

She was undercover with another one of your agents, Clayton Webb, as his

pregnant wife.

I can neither confirm.

nor deny.

Are you even trying to get them back? My company has a policy.

We do not negotiate with terrorists.

So if anyone falls into their hands, they can consider themselves beyond

Life is cheap down here.

You can trust no one.

Is that any way to greet an old friend?

Gunny, what are you doing here?

I'm waiting for somebody to show up. Never figured it'd be you, sir.

You look like hell. Are you okay?

Long story, sir.

You can drop it, sir.

I'll resign my commission.

Sir?

I'll tell you about it later. Let's hear your story.

Transferred down here to Marine Barracks at the American Embassy in Asuncion.

Is this a warm weather uniform?

I'm working undercover, sir.

I gotta sign T .A .D. to Mr. Webb.

Where is Webb?

I don't know for sure, sir.

Where's Mac?

With Mr. Webb.

Hello,

sweetheart.

What can I do?

What you're doing is pretty good.

What did they do to you?

I had no idea it would get this bad.

I'll do whatever I can to keep them away from you.

Colonel McKenzie and Mr. Webb left Raul Garcia's camp after exchanging the

Stinger circuit boards for the diamonds.

Garcia's the arms dealer.

I'm trading as a middleman to Sadiq.

So Garcia sent you to Sadiq's camp?

Yes, sir. I drove the truck with the circuit board to Sadiq's Hacienda on the

Chaco Boreal.

I was supposed to wait for a shipment of uncut coke to return to Garcia.

And what was Webb's plan?

Once I confirmed the Stinger missiles were in Sadiq's Hacienda, he was going

call in for a predator strike.

Yeah? Instead, Sadiq had the missiles moved out by truck and I got jumped.

Well, how did Webb and Mack get caught?

It was on account of me, sir. They came in to rescue me, and it almost worked.

They made it to a car.

A grenade hit.

That was the last I saw of them. I got shot.

How'd you get away?

Nope. In all the confusion, I crawled out of the camp.

Next thing I knew, I woke up in the middle of a field, and a Mennonite

and his wife found me. They got me patched up.

Mennonites? Yes, sir. There's a large religious German community in the Chaco

Boreal.

So what happened next?

I hit back to Ciudad del Este.

Why didn't you go for help?

Mr. Webb told me to trust no one. I think Sadie knew we were coming.

There was a leak somewhere.

In Garcia's camp?

Or in the CIA.

How bad is it?

A little worse.

They think we're Israelis.

Why?

Because Israel's their enemy.

They see their enemy everywhere.

What are they asking you?

Questions I can't answer.

I think there's something big in the works.

A strike against the U .S.

Sadiq needs to know if his mission has been compromised, and he needs to know

soon.

I'm sorry about all this.

I agreed to be here. Yeah, I know.

Sarah... I don't know how much of my asking you here had to do with your

credentials.

And how much had to do with just wanting you with me.

I don't know what to say.

I just wish I could die for both of us. I don't want you to die.

interrupting no i uh i could use the company you look how i feel

yeah it's hard to keep up appearances i'm worried about them too i just wish

there was something that i could do i mean there is a time i mean i knew when

this happened that i'd be limited by my disability that there would be things

that i couldn't do but i didn't expect to feel so useless you know when the

came that they

They actually need me.

Oh, they need you here.

You're doing something they can't do. You're keeping JAGOPS running.

It's important.

There's more than one way to be a hero.

This might be a breach of protocol.

It might get me transferred right back to the IG's office.

But I won't tell if you won't.

He needs Menaka.

What is that?

Bomb of the Menaka plant.

The Chaco need is abused as an analgesic for a thousand years.

Last year an American pharmaceutical company patented it. The Indians got

nothing.

You should sit down.

I'll get you some water.

The water here is brackish.

That's all we have.

Thank you for sharing.

I know the kind of pain he's in.

They used me the same way.

I'm Warren Robinson. This is my wife, Carla.

The kidnapped missionaries. They came here to help the Iorio and the Navacale,

and now we've gotten caught in your war.

My war?

You're Americans, aren't you? It's neither here nor there, Carla.

We're victims of some kind of fundraising for the jihad. They want two

pounds for us.

They might as well just kill us now because our church can't raise that kind

money.

It isn't my government that moved these people to violence.

You're forgetting the battle for a court.

I have no idea what you're talking about.

We're not politicians.

We're people of God. It's our calling to help those in need.

Even if they're Americans.

You know what worries me?

Aside from oncoming traffic?

You ever wonder what Sadiq Fahd's up to?

What his targets are?

I'd lay my money on a large -deck amphib.

Or maybe a carrier.

You want to keep your eyes on the road, all right? We want to get there in one

piece, right?

Don't try to blend in with the locals, sir.

If we blend in anymore, we'll be weird all over the landscape.

There's trouble.

Documentos. American.

Business?

Pleasure. Tourista.

They call this country the Green Hell.

Why do you want to come here?

Birds.

And you came to the right place.

What have you seen so far?

Well, we saw some parrots, a bluebelly and a scaly -faced peoness about a mile

back.

Have you seen an alicanto yet?

Yeah, we saw one yesterday.

It is a mythical bird.

AJ.

The chairman wanted you to know that the Secretary of Defense has approved the

ROE changes for Persian Gulf Ops.

Including use of the new weapon systems?

Reviewed and approved.

We've also been working with the Department of Justice to fine -tune our

for trying suspected terrorists.

Well, thank you, Admiral.

Been a great help. Glad to assist any way we can.

Carry on. Yes, sir.

Excuse me, Admiral.

I was just wondering if there was any news, sir. No news.

What if?

Don't deal in what ifs, Tyner.

For food and all thy gifts of love, we give thee thanks and praise.

Look down, O Jesus, from above, and bless us all our days.

I'm sure this isn't what you're used to.

This is more than we've had for a day or two.

I'm so grateful to the both of you.

Will you be able to pay your ransom?

It's not about the money.

We're prisoners of conscience.

You must be about halfway there.

Yeah, six months.

I hope you weren't here when the baby calmed you.

But I've worked as a midwife with the Chaco.

I can help you if you let me.

Hopefully, like you said, they won't be here.

I can find no fault with you, but you may continue your journey.

That is Capitan.

Enjoy the bird.

We're about 70 miles to the turnoff.

After that, we'll have to take her one road at a time.

motherhood.

Carla.

What have you done?

You misunderstand, Sadiq.

He tempers his cruelty with kindness.

He knows what's best for us.

He tortured your husband.

He videotaped it and sent it to your church to show that he was serious. He's

keeping you captive, and it doesn't look like you're ever going to get out. Is

that what's best? Is that Islam and Christianity have much in common?

We're all people of peace.

Well, I hope your God is a loving one, Mrs. Robinson, because he's going to

a lot to forgive.

I'm fine.

How are you feeling?

I'm great.

I like having babies.

I didn't mean that, ma 'am.

I know.

You're talking about Colonel McKenzie.

And Commander Rapp, ma 'am.

I'm just so afraid for them.

How do you feel?

All you can do is hope and pray and then trust in God.

My father was a minister, ma 'am. He kind of soured me on God.

Maybe you should give him a second chance.

I know.

I never want to see my father again, ma 'am.

That's not the him I'm talking about.

Yes, ma 'am.

I'll take that under advisement.

Ma 'am.

This place is the only real home I've ever known.

It's pathetic as that sounds.

The truth is, Colonel McKenzie and Commander Rabb and you and Lieutenant

are... The first people who've given a damn about me.

Pardon my language.

I just... I couldn't stand it if something happened to one of you.

Things happen, Jennifer.

My husband stepped on a landmine, and you stayed with him so he wouldn't bleed

to death until help came.

You handled that situation better than anybody else, and you can handle this.

That's just it, ma 'am. That was a war zone.

I thought here, coming back, it would be safe, and bad things wouldn't happen to

people I care about.

I'm sorry. It's okay.

It's going to be okay.

Excuse me, ma 'am.

Things have changed.

I will leave it up to you.

I will take one of you or the other. You choose.

Sarah.

Sarah.

The name on your passport is Jane.

But before you decide, Sarah, know that one of you will be placed in a room with

one of my men.

He will put you through hell, and no one will be there to call him off.

I thought you believed in a compassionate God.

Oh, he is.

But I have no interest in debating you.

Because I'm a woman. A woman, an infidel, perhaps even a Jew, Sarah.

Are you a Jew, a falsifier of words, the occupier of the holy places, denier of

prophecies, one of the so -called chosen people?

Okay.

I will try again. So you say you are Mr. Williams.

You claim you are an arms salesman. You sell circuit boards to Raul Garcia in

exchange for diamonds. That is your story? Yeah.

Explain this.

After the sale, Raul Garcia's house exploded in the middle of the night.

That... That has nothing to do with me.

Why did you shoot your way into my hacienda?

Who was the man you were trying to rescue, and where is he now? And who are

working for?

I'm self -employed.

It's the American way.

You live in a free country.

Yes. Well, that's so -called... freedom is going to drag your nation to the

bottom.

And I, whose country you have taken, will show you no mercy.

Peace be upon you.

Your lord has laid down for himself a law of mercy, so that if any one of you

commit a fault through ignorance and afterwards turn and amend, he will

be gracious and merciful.

You know the Quran?

As do I.

And this I say.

And so we write in blood a language you can understand.

I have to settle a matter with the Robinsons. Where are they?

I've made them more comfortable.

I will be back in an hour.

You decide, woman.

Your blood or his.

Enter. Excuse me, Admiral.

Lieutenant Sims would like to see you, sir.

She did say it wasn't important, Admiral.

Then why the hell are you bothering me?

Because I believe the lieutenant believes otherwise, sir, on the

scale.

Tyler, are you, uh, are you clairvoyant?

I don't know, sir.

Read my mind.

Aye, sir.

Lieutenant, the Admiral will see you now, man.

Is this a bad time, sir?

Bad time for what, Lieutenant?

Sir, I just wanted you to know that if there's anything I can do, I'll do it.

Other than your job?

Here's the thing, sir.

I know at times like these you normally turn to Colonel McKenzie or Commander

Rabb. Sir, I just wanted you to know that if you ever wanted to talk, that

Lieutenant Roberts and I are here.

Have you mentioned this to the Lieutenant?

No, sir.

Good. Then don't.

Dismissed.

Aye, sir.

How'd it go with the Admiral, ma 'am? Ducky. Just ducky.

Is that good or bad, ma 'am? Great if you're a duck, Tyner.

Did I tell you I was sorry about all this?

About a million times.

If we ever get out of this... When? When? Not this.

Aren't you the cockeyed optimist?

I can't accept dying here, Clay. I won't.

And I won't leave you behind.

There's something I need to say to you, Sarah.

You don't need to say anything.

Sarah!

It is her choice and she has made it. The grant teaches you to protect women

they can't protect themselves.

They can't do this!

There's no more than you have done to us for centuries.

Sarah!

I believe

it

is your custom to kneel when you pray.

Get on your knees.

What is going on? Your church has given its answer.

They will not pay to free you.

I did everything that you asked.

In your scriptures, there was Jesus and there was Judas.

You followed the wrong example.

Carla!

Who was that, sir?

Can't tell, but it couldn't be good.

Have you no mercy?

I have mercy on those who deserve mercy.

The poor, the widowed, the homeless.

You are none of these things, so you do not deserve my notice.

There's Mac.

What can I say that will stop this? Nothing.

I am not interested in you.

But I will sit with your husband.

And when your cries for help go unanswered and your shrieks become

he will tell me what I need to know.

This goes against everything your religion has taught you. Don't tell me

my religion!

There is a fatwa.

It says that I can kill Americans when and where I find them.

So my hands are clean.

Shalom, Sarah.

At least she's alive.

But she won't be for long. If we don't do something, let's go.

Let's get this thing in.

You take the house out there, man.

We gotta get you out of here.

I'm too far gone, Johnny.

Help's too far away.

What happens now, sir?

We get webbed to a hospital.

There's no ambulance here.

We're a long way from a hospital.

You'll make it.

I have to.

My mother never forgave me if I died before her.

Neither would I.

I liked having you for a wife.

I liked having you as a husband and a friend.

There's something about sharing the same bed.

Same toothbrush.

You used my toothbrush?

I didn't think you'd mind.

You've been single too long.

Maybe we both have.

I'll see you back home, Clay.

Take care of her, Brad.

It's more than I was able to do for her.

Well, whatever you did do, she's obviously very appreciative.

It was a pleasure working with you, gang. You too, Benny.

Semper fi, ma 'am. Semper fi.

Good luck, gang.

Thanks.

They think they'll make it.

Depends on how fast Gunny can get him help.

So what do you know that I need to know?

I overheard one of the guards talking about the Stingerman.

From what I could make out, they're in a Mennonite cattle farm about 20 miles

from here.

They didn't happen to mention an address, did they?

No, all I know is that they're near the Rio Verde, the Green River. That covers

a lot of ground.

I can't wait to not be pregnant.

I'd, uh, I'd wait on that and make them at hand.

Sorry about the ride. I can slow it down.

Eddie, I need help with that.

Well, look at that, man.

All right, you're going into labor, so let me help you out.

One last in your...

You don't have any money, do you? No, I had to pick a queen.

A few days ago, I had a diamond necklace worth half a million dollars.

And where is it now?

Sadiq Fahd took it. You got anything?

300 guarani and a credit card.

Senor, good talk.

Mynheer, we would like to rent your aircraft.

I don't understand.

I want to rent your plane.

No, you have to spray the fields.

It's very important.

Okay.

Give him all the money.

And your passport and the car keys.

The hospital in Pozzagrande is 100 miles to the east.

I will fly you myself.

Oh, no, no. My husband flies. He's a pilot, U .S. Navy.

Hornet? F -14.

Off the Patrick Henry, the Seahawk.

Luftwaffe.

I was a glider pilot before the war.

On religious grounds, I never wanted to fight.

You're a Mennonite?

Ja.

But I did not want my family put on a boxcar to Dachau.

I'll get our things, sweetheart.

Oh, I learned how to fly a Messerschmitt.

B -F -1 -10 -C. They assigned me to a fighter -bomber unit,

Gruppe 12 -10, Stuttgart, by Spitfire, near Karlsruhe.

13 August 1940.

Now this is my new life.

Garden from the desert.

We get to go?

Yes. Have

a

safe flight.

Thank you.

You ready?

I'm never ready for this. The last time you took me up, you crashed and I got

stabbed in the leg by a deranged hillbilly. I still have the scar.

Try closing your eyes this time.

Roadblock up ahead.

Who are they?

They're Paraguayan military, sir.

I've seen

you

before.

You're the man who claimed to know about Parrot.

Only then you were driving a nice Land Cruiser and now it is full of bullet

holes. Now, why don't you tell me who you are and what you are doing here?

a long story, Capitan.

This man's hurt badly. He needs medical assistance immediately. Please. First, I

need to see his papers.

We have a problem with that, Capitan. He doesn't have them.

And I cannot help you. Por favor, Capitan. How do I know you're not

drugs? If you don't help that man, he's going to die.

The only way you can help him is to tell me a story I can believe.

Revisen el auto!

I'm going around again. When I give you the signal, take the stick.

What? I can't fly this thing.

You can do it, Mac. Just take the stick and hold on.

to stick back again.
