Original subtitles

While you two are playing Frankie and Annette go camping, I'm getting my tail

trounced.

Look at this place. Is it so different from the one I left?

I'm sorry, the lady is upset, but this is a matter of national security.

Now get this car through the gate.

Give me full combat mode.

Roger.

What the hell is wrong?

Oh, Dom, I'm sorry. Did I wake you?

Oh, did I wake you?

Come on, don't give me that innocent face.

You did that on purpose.

Me? Yeah, you.

No, you didn't wake me.

I didn't?

You worried about string two?

Yeah. You'd think it'd get better after all these years.

But right now, I gotta...

Butterfly's as big as a space shuttle.

Did you get any sleep?

Yeah.

I've been up and down all night just like a yo-yo.

I wish we'd just stuck to the original plan. You and Hawk zip down to Mexico,

pick up the Janiks, and we're all here for breakfast.

I just wish I knew why Archangel suddenly decided that it was too risky

for Airwolf to fly down at a pickup site.

Yeah. What did he call it?

Oh, a special situation.

What the hell ever that means.

He was stonewalling us.

Dom, why don't we just leave right now and get to the new rendezvous a little

early? It'd be better than sitting around here waiting.

We can't do that.

So we have to just let String go it alone?

Look, don't worry about String. He can take care of himself.

I won't if you won't.

Mr. Hawk, in person at last.

So good to be on dry land again.

Listen, we're almost two hours away. We better get going.

Congratulations, Mr. Hawk. This is a brilliantly camouflaged helicopter.

I had a little change of plans. We'll get the job done anyway.

Most interesting land here.

We have nothing like this in Czechoslovakia. Well, Baja's real

pretty, but there's too many hiding places down here to suit me.

Yeah, this looks like your cowboy movies.

Wrestlers, ambushes, shoot-em-ups.

I didn't know that wrestlers were popular in Czechoslovakia.

My mother was American. I used to live in New York as a child.

When Inga Mothers died, she returned to Czechoslovakia to stay with me.

against my wishes.

You were my only family, Papa.

Yes, I know, but it was still a mistake.

How long before we reach the helicopter?

Well, we've got a band of special radar surveillance we're going to have to

clear.

Isn't that a long time to be out in the open?

A lot longer than I'd like.

At least I wouldn't be expecting anything like this.

He's right, Inge. You are the laser expert. He is the security expert. Just

leave it to him.

we lost them yeah we probably lost them but now they know we're here for sure

well they haven't got us yet huh mr hawk

Looks rough and deep down there.

I don't think anybody could survive.

Maybe yes, maybe no.

You okay?

Yes, yes, thanks.

Well, you saw for yourself.

Maybe I saw what I was supposed to see. Let's not be in too big a hurry to give

up. You may be right, but I still think it's a waste of time.

A waste of time.

Victor and Inga Janik are the top experts in the world in laser

miniaturization. They have a plan with them for a high-powered laser no

larger than a briefcase.

So what?

Can you imagine a whole company of soldiers with such weapons? All right,

all right, you made your point.

We will not take anything for granted.

Order more reconnaissance aircraft into this area. If they're down there in the

water, there is one thing.

But if they're not, we can afford to miss them.

I've got bad news.

We don't know yet whether the leak was on our end or theirs, but the whole

thing has gone wrong.

How wrong?

Firm operatives in Mexico indicate that divers discovered the vehicle assigned

to Stringfellow Hawk in 30 feet of water off the San Cristobal cliffs.

They retrieved from the cab the body of Victor Yannick, dead of gunshot wounds.

And Hawk?

No other bodies were found.

However, both doors apparently opened on impact.

Severe riptide and substantial turbulence in the water make it very

likely that other bodies have been washed out to sea.

Come on, come on, Michael.

What is she trying to say? That Stringer's...

I wish to God I could come to some other conclusion, but I'm not in the fairy

tale business.

Every shred of evidence we've got says that Hawk...

I

don't believe it.

I don't, I...

Shortest ways, right up over that mountain.

You up to it?

Why did it have to be Papa?

He loved life, so why couldn't it have been me?

I can't get it.

Sometimes you just aren't answers to questions like that.

You don't understand. He did it for me.

He could have lived in his homeland until the end of his years, and

he died because of me.

I know you're real upset, and you're not thinking too clear right now.

But you're wrong about your father's motives.

You're an expert on my father's motives.

You barely met him.

That's true.

But when I did meet him, I saw a man that...

Looked like he just got out of prison and still had a smile on his face Yeah,

he risked his life for you But he did it for himself, too

He looked

like a hell of a guy Well,

let's get going for gets too hot

I just don't buy it. I don't care what Archangel said.

String may be in a jam, I'll buy that.

But he's not dead, not yet.

I knew something was wrong.

I just knew something was wrong, Dom.

You can take all those IFF scanners and those matrix scanners and those infrared

scanners, but this scanner right here...

This is the one that tells me that he's not dead. Not yet.

Okay, Dom.

He's not dead.

Could you not say it anymore?

Then I'll do better than say it.

Let's go get the lady. When we get down there, I'll prove it.

Come on.

Yeah.

Listen, maybe we can get a ride to Huerco.

You stay here until I make sure it's safe.

Thank you.

Tom, could you say it once more?

Kate, he's not dead.

If he was, I'd know it.

Now give me turbos. Let's go.

Turbos.

Chompers are all over us.

You know that?

That did take a lot of guts to do what you and your father did.

Some people would say it took more guts to stay in Czechoslovakia.

You don't really believe that, do you?

I don't know quite what I believe.

Give it time.

Come on.

Not a place to take a break, anyway.

Oh, God.

Looks like we'll be safe here for a while.

Dom, we're approaching the rendezvous area.

And I'm picking up lots of other air traffic.

It figures.

We'll have to search for string while we dodge everybody else. Keep me posted,

huh? Roger.

Take a heading 020 degrees.

I was born in Czechoslovakia, so I hold dual citizenship.

My parents separated and my mother brought me to New York as an infant.

I returned to live with my father in 1969.

Must have been tough.

I was 12 years old and scared to death.

But Papa was wonderful.

We were so much alike that we hit it off from the very first.

He was more like my older brother in many ways than my father.

He loved to joke.

He could always make me laugh so hard.

Yeah.

He got a tickler or two out of me.

It seemed quite natural that I should also share his ability in physics.

I was groomed to carry on his research.

We've worked side by side for the last six years.

No more, though.

Never again.

For Pop.

You could always carry on his work.

Maybe.

Our last project was on microfilm in Papa's suitcase.

It's gone.

And you can't reconstruct it?

In time I could. I'm not sure I want to.

You know, Inga...

You risked your life to cross over to our side.

That ought to tell you something.

I thought it did.

Now I don't know.

Hi. Garcia.

You've taken care of the farmer.

My men have him under protective custody, and unfortunately,

he will be killed trying to escape.

A local farmer is looking

for a stray cow.

He says he spotted an Anglo man and woman less than an hour ago. That's

excellent. Gracias. Now put everything you've got into that area.

Give me full combat mode.

Roger.

From the start, they knew every move we made.

They had planes, helicopters, or works.

I can't believe Archangel could screw up like that.

It's not his fault, Dom.

It was just a liaison.

A national security agency was in charge.

There was some suit named Hoffman.

I met him at the briefing.

Bet you'd like to meet him again.

Damn right I would.

I don't suppose you want to contact Archangel right now, would you?

Oh, please, no.

enough spy game for one day.

So she's completely eluded you, eh, Shrenkov?

And you call yourself a profession?

Spare me the kind words.

She has not escaped us yet.

No, that's right, she hasn't. But not because of anything you're doing about

it. You're being very unreasonable.

You bungle a mission as critical as this and you call me unreasonable?

The only reason Ingi Yannick hasn't escaped us totally is me.

I have a special understanding of this woman. I know what makes her kind tick.

Mark my words. Now that her father is dead, she won't be so eager to work for

the Americans.

And that is what may keep you from being called home to explain your failure.

I'm not worried because I have a hundred men tracking her down, and we'll see who

finally takes her in. I like your style, Shrenkov.

Now see if you can match it with brains and ability.

I'm well aware of Mr. Hawk's fondness for the unconventional, but all

defectors must be debriefed as soon as possible.

Huffman.

I hope you're not presuming to tell me how to handle an intelligence operation.

Not after this pathetic farce you call the Janak defection.

The mission was betrayed by a double agent in Czechoslovakia. Maybe so, but

you botched your end, too. First, you bought all that misinformation about MiG

-29s testing advanced radar in the pickup area.

Second, once you had changed the mission, you should have provided full

ground support for Hawk in Mexico. And third, I've already told your bosses

that I will never risk... any of my people in one of your operations again.

You're forgetting, Archangel, that I succeeded.

Not fully, but we do have Inga Yannick in this country.

Thanks to Stringfellow Hawk.

He saved your bacon, Huffman.

He performed acceptably, yes.

A vehicle approaching, sir.

Stop, Hawk, please.

I can't do this right now.

I didn't think so.

But maybe it's better to get it over with.

I don't know.

What's he doing?

Let's go ask him.

Once I go in there, it's all out of my hands. I have no more control.

Do you understand?

If I were in your shoes, I don't think I'd go through with it either.

Good to see you, Hawk.

You too, Michael.

Is there a problem?

The lady's having second thoughts.

Second thoughts?

What the hell's that supposed to mean?

Just what I said, Huffman.

By the way, you get anybody else killed lately?

Not now, Hawk.

Miss Yannick, I'd like to express my condolences on the loss of your father.

I know this is a most difficult time, but I promise we'll do everything we can

to make it easy for you.

Now, what's going on here?

I'm sorry the lady is upset, but this is a matter of national security.

Now, get this car through the gate. Huffman, you even try to give me one

more order.

I'm gonna climb out of here, and I'm gonna win. Whoa, gentlemen.

Please, let's not make this any tougher than it already is.

This is a free country, no matter what anybody says.

I need more time.

I'll be in touch, Michael.

That man's a lunatic. We gotta stop him.

That's okay. Let him go. I'll take full responsibility.

No chance.

Woman driver.

Listen, Huffman, Hawk will take good care of the lady. I'll hear from him in

a day or two. Trust me.

Trust you?

I'll have you up on charges.

I'll turn your career into confetti. You won't have enough security clearance

left to shine shoes in the Pentagon barbershop.

I gotta take a little time A little time to think things

over

Better read between the lines in case I need it when I'm older

It

is beautiful, isn't

it?

When you're somewhere like this, you want to thank God for all your senses.

For being able to see and to taste and to smell.

And... To feel.

Yes.

And feel.

a lovely surprise.

Cut the comedy, Hawk. I'm not in the mood.

What are you and Miss Janik doing up here?

Resting.

No time to recuperate. Wonderful.

While you two are playing Frankie and Annette go camping, I'm getting my tail

trounced from here to Washington.

I told them I'd hear from you in two days.

It's been five.

Michael, she's not ready to come in yet.

I mean, you have to remember, Inga doesn't have to work for us.

I think eventually she'll come right to our side.

Eventually? Hawk, I don't have time for eventually.

Two more days, that's all I can give her.

Michael, I'll try.

All right.

I don't believe it.

What?

I told you not to play with that fairy dust.

Damn it.

That's surveillance dust.

What? They treat this granular material with low-level radiation.

Both sides are using it now.

Somebody's dusted my helicopter in order to track it.

Are you telling me they know you're here?

You get the girl out of here right away, I'll take my chopper to several other

landing sites that might confuse them.

Hawk, be careful.

Listen, it looks like we've got to get out of here. I heard.

Maybe you can stay with Caitlyn or... Oh, I know someone, a family friend, a

man named Garrett Coulson.

And you trust him?

Absolutely. When my mother and I first came to New York, he took us under his

wing. I would trust Garrett Coulson with my life.

I hope so.

But that's what it's going to be.

We're out of options.

I'll get my things.

Yeah, I still don't like the idea of leaving you here.

I'm Inga. Yes, ma'am. You're expected.

Inga, it's really you.

You're here at last.

Oh, Gary, Gary.

Oh, Gary.

Well, goodbye, but only for a while.

If there's anything that you need.

Thank you very much. Thank you.

Let me have a look at you.

I haven't seen you since you were 12 years old in New York.

Incredible.

I was absolutely stunned when you telephoned.

It's so good of you to take me in on such short notice. Oh, nonsense. It's my

pleasure. I was so sorry to hear about your father.

Thank you.

I suppose you can guess why I'm on the run like this.

Well, obviously there are people that you wish to avoid.

American intelligence, Soviet intelligence, perhaps both.

Well, don't worry about a thing.

You're safe here with me.

Where's Inga Yannick?

Are you sure it's safe to talk in here?

Yes, I'm sure.

That surveillance dust wasn't KGB activity.

It was Huffman. The little twerp was trying to follow me to Inga. The firm

has filed a protest with the National Security Agency about its conduct.

I told them I'd rather have ten minutes in a locked room at a little.

Michael, I need a favor.

Oh, just one?

No, actually, I need two.

I need access to your computers.

And I need you to turn your back while I check it out.

Turn my back? Why?

Inga's staying with this guy.

And if he checks out, I don't want anyone to know where she's staying.

And that includes you.

Are you really pushing it, Hawk? I've taken a lot of heat for you on this one.

Michael, act like the spy that you are.

It's better that you don't know.

Okay.

Just type in the name

Michael, this is all in code.

What does that mean? This guy's had, I think, a security problem?

Hard to say from here.

Well, then get over here and tell me what it means.

He's KGB.

Don't tell me she's involved with him.

Involved?

I dropped her off with him two hours ago.

Oh, great.

I'll activate our hostage rescue squad, but Coulson will try to get her out of

the country as fast as he can.

I'm not gonna let that happen.

You call Dom.

Tell him me.

I'm gonna get the lady.

Yes, I do remember that.

I was quite a little terrible back then. Oh, no, no.

You were a delightful child.

Well, it's getting late.

Oh, how stupid of me keeping you away from your work. I should go unpack

anyway. That won't be necessary, my dear. You'll be leaving soon.

Leaving? I don't understand.

You will.

Dennis.

Well, Ingrid, soon you'll be seeing all your old friends back home again.

Our ETA for the house is 11 minutes.

Roger. Let's hope it's soon enough.

from the area headed north along the coastline if that's them they're trying

to get her out over the water let's see if there's anybody waiting

bingo

submarine that's what they're headed for they're gonna try and put her aboard or

the hell they will running id scan scan maximum radius tom we can't afford to

miss him

It's Russian, Delta III class, SSBN nuclear-powered, 621-inch torpedo tubes

and 16 SSN-18 ballistic missiles.

What's up, Sniper?

Better be ready, huh?

Roger. Bringing up the harpoons.

up a speedboat on a direct line to the sub.

That's her in the speedboat.

Yeah, they're going to that sub.

Missile launch string, three up. Give me a sunburst.

Taking evasive action.

It didn't take the sunburst. It's still closing.

Hellfire, now.

What's next?

Submarine instituting evasive action.

That launch has nowhere to go.

All we want is your prisoner.

Take the boat to the shore.

Remember one thing. Your asylum doesn't depend on making a deal, but we would

appreciate an opportunity to talk.

I understand. You'll have my full cooperation.

Thank you.

See you later.
