♪♪

There's rioting breaking out throughout the city.

Fires continue to burn everywhere.

Troops are shooting people.

My God, I... I don't know why.

There's a woman dying in front of me, and no one's helping her.

There are conflicting reports about who or what started the chaos.

Will someone tell me what's happening?

This is madness.

What is this world coming to?

What the hell are you doing here, John?

- I told you to stay put. - I couldn't let you walk into this alone.

All right, but remember... This is a reconnaissance mission.

Take a look around and get out.

We're doing this my way... By the book, John,

or I go in alone.

Pay attention to details, John.

If the General's right, we're getting into something we can't predict.

Yeah.

- Max... - Not now.

Keep your mind on the job.

Johnny, no!

If it is effective,

we will have the army we need

without risk to our own people.

Disease-free and impossible to destroy...

You won't be disappointed.

Activate it.

He'll have a telescopic lens in one eye

and a small watcher in the other.

What about his human faculties,

his memory?

I don't know how our work has affected his brain.

He'll need to be tested.

I'm completing the final connections to his optical system.

This will enable us to see what he sees.

Good.

Are you certain he was the best selection for this experiment?

Look.

Our new warrior was part of an intricate

military network that has interfered with many of our operations.

He'll decimate them.

I had a bag full of gold coins from the wreck.

And I was making my way back up to the surface,

when out of nowhere came this 16-foot-man-eater.

- Come on. - Seriously, 16-foot-man-eater.

Practically lost it there... Nearly dropped everything.

No guts.

You got quite a nice commission, I hope.

Yeah, it was okay.

- What? - What?

John, you eat like a pig.

450 bottom line, that's my best offer.

That's all you can do for me... 450?

I can give you one better than that.

I'll include delivery with...

Take their weapons and their vehicle.

Use whatever means necessary.

You want plastic? You want power?

One pound of this will blow away...

magnum and silencer.

What the hell is going on?

Son of a...

He's ready to proceed to the next phase.

He'll seek out and destroy his former partners

including the soldier who eluded us the night of his capture...

John Kincaid.

He'll kill his own brother and never know it.

So, what are you going to do now?

Don't know, something will turn up... always does.

You've been lucky so far, John.

Things don't always turn up.

I'm not worried, Max.

I've got you to do that for me.

Yeah, but he might not always be around.

- Give me a break. I'm not a kid anymore. - That's just my point.

I'd like to know you've got something going on.

When was the last time I had to ask you for anything?

Last week.

Oh, yeah.

You're a pain in the ass, John.

Ah, thanks.

Oh, here.

- What's this? - Happy Birthday.

I didn't know it was your birthday.

Happy Birthday, man.

Well, open it.

I kept one.

Yeah?

I want a room.

No vacancies, pal. Sorry.

Hey, lighten up, man.

Check again.

Um... yeah, as a matter of fact,

I got something, yeah.

It's got a window and everything.

It's right up there at the top of the stairs.

Hey!

- AWOL? That's just great! - You don't know what it was like, man.

Don't be stupid, John!

I called in a lot of favors to get them to take you on!

- I didn't ask you to! - I ought to let them toss you

- into Leavenworth for a few years. - Don't do me any more favors!

- I just came to say goodbye! - Yeah, to go where? Do what?

Anything I like. I'm making my own decisions from now on!

- Very good job you've done. - And get off my back!

I'm going to do things myself! Can't you understand that?

Fine, but you do just that.

I'll be happy to listen to your explanation at the court-martial.

- What are you doing? - I'm calling General Wilson

- to see if I can get you out of this... - Hey, keep out of it!

This has nothing to do with you, you self-righteous...

You think you know everything,

but you don't.

You need discipline, education, and training,

and you're going to get them.

Why, because you say so?

What makes you so angry, John?

What are you trying to prove?

Fine. Choose...

My way or prison.

There you go.

- Ah, it's about time. - Join in, John.

Yeah, the more the merrier.

We used to play that game all the time when we were kids.

You and Max?

Yeah. He hated the game.

- What was he like? - The opposite of me.

We'll talk about it later. I have to go out.

I've got a date with Scoggs.

- Okay, we'll see you. - Yeah.

What's wrong with him? He's been acting weird all week.

Max.

He died a year ago today.

Hey, you, you can't go in...

Stop!

Open it.

♪♪

To Max, the best of friends.

To Max.

John, Max, and I were in Africa once.

I've heard it 100 times, Gomes.

Okay, so,

we got separated from our unit.

Here we are in the middle of the desert...

No food, no transport,

and hundreds of miles from water.

And then Max gets an idea.

Hmm. Here it comes, boys.

Hey, this is for real, guys, all right?

He started to sing Christmas carols

at the top of his lungs.

I thought he'd gone nuts.

But his voice carried through the desert

and led a caravan back to us.

Camels came back... camels, man!

Can you believe it?

And if you believe that one, man...

It's the truth. Cross my heart.

These are your targets.

Locate and eliminate the entire group.

Once you have stored their images,

burn the file.

Your primary target is John Kincaid.

Locate and eliminate them.

- To Max. - To Max.

He and I were in South America once.

Can you give us a break, huh?

It's a clean break.

It's the kind of training you get in a guerilla unit.

Tape from the security camera?

- A copy's being made, sir. - Good.

They ran a sweep already.

Run another.

- But, sir! - Run another.

♪♪

Jack. Good seeing you, John.

See you soon, Gomes.

- Scoggs. - Think I'll pack it in, too, man.

- Take care of yourself. - All right.

What's the matter?

Just keep wondering who set us up, Scoggs.

I don't know. It happened a long time ago.

You know, when Max recruited me for this line of work,

it wasn't hard to tell who your real friends were.

I let too much time go by. I should have looked into it right away.

Why? It wouldn't have changed anything.

Because I promised myself I'd do it,

but I just kept running into dead ends.

Maybe there was nobody to find, Johnny.

- What's that supposed to mean? - You keep looking for someone to blame.

What do you want to hear, Scoggs,

that I only had one real friend in the world and that I killed him?

- If I'd listened to him in the... - John, just stop.

You have to stop blaming yourself.

You've got to stop punishing yourself.

You had no idea that this would happen.

Max cared about you. He would never blame you.

No, he wouldn't.

Let me stay around.

Oh, give me one good reason why I should.

- Oh, never mind. - Hey, you got kicked out of school.

You can't hold down a job.

You get booted out of the military. I don't get it.

Hey, everybody's telling me what to do all the time

like they know what's best for me.

Well, I know what's best for me.

Yeah. Johnny, Johnny, Johnny,

you wouldn't know manure if you were standing in it.

- Say uncle. - No way.

- Say uncle. - No! Ow!

- Say it. - Go to hell!

- Say it. - Ow!

You're stubborn and bull-headed.

Yeah, well, look who's talking!

Try to be a little more responsible, huh?

- Does that mean I can stay? - Yeah.

Yes!

There are rules. You've got to pull your own weight around here.

- Absolutely. - All right, and there's one cardinal law

that must never, under any circumstances, be broken, John.

No one's allowed in the shelter.

No, I mean it, John.

I have too many enemies.

Max, I've got it.

Good.

So what are we going to do with you, Johnny?

Train me to be your partner.

Yeah.

There is your first target.

You must find John Kincaid.

Max!

John Kincaid... where is he?

Max, what the hell is this?

John Kincaid... tell me.

He showed no recollection of his friend.

Nothing that made him human remains...

No memory, no individual will

His actions are completely governed by us.

- So, what do... - tell the witnesses,

- then we'll interview them later. - Sir.

All these shots being fired,

you'd think that someone would have hit the bastard.

They did... several times.

- You know what's missing? - Only one file...

Special Agent John Kincaid.

This is Colonel James Bradley.

I have a level 15 clearance. I want information on John Kincaid,

operative retired.

Yeah, we all have our orders, Captain.

My next one will be to send a couple of MPs over to your place

and drag your butt out here.

Good.

This is our man.

Max Kincaid... missing, presumed dead.

Hello.

John Kincaid, please.

I'm Colonel Bradley, United States army.

Hold on.

Harrison!

- There's a... - What's up, Deb?

- Colonel Bradley on the phone for John. - Bradley?

We don't know any Bradley. How the hell did they find us?

- Colonel, what can I do for you? - I need to find John Kincaid.

It's very important.

- What do you... - John Kincaid... where is he?

John Kincaid.

And don't answer the vid phone.

We don't know if they can trace it, okay?

We'll contact you on the computer network if we have to.

- See you soon, honey. - Be careful.

You know what I was thinking about?

One of Max' favorite stories!

Shh! Someone's coming.

Hi, Max. You're home early.

The primary rule, Johnny.

- I told you... no one. - What do you mean?

Hi, Max.

Scoggs.

- You guys know each other? - Intimately.

Oh, great.

Oh, the look on your face.

Ah, those were good times.

No, no, no, no, no, no.

Time for you to go home, Johnny boy.

You've got people now who care about you.

Talk to them.

Hey!

Aah!

Thanks, Scoggs.

Get out of the way!

Max!

♪♪

Where's Kincaid? What the hell is going on?

What do you want with him? And how did you find us?

I'm asking the questions here, lady, and you'd better give me some answers.

- I want Kincaid! - I don't know where he is.

This isn't a game!

You're under arrest.

Damn.

You've got to be kidding. It's a joke, right?

- Aliens? - You saw the orders.

Max, someone at Mission Control's pulling your leg.

If you don't believe it, I'll go in alone.

- I'm your partner, man. - I don't a partner like you.

I need someone I can depend on.

Besides, we never really worked together,

we just sort of bumped into each other on the same missions.

Yeah, and whose fault is that?

You have all the meetings, receive all the messages.

It's your network, your agents,

your weapons, your house,

and even your whores!

Hey, do me a favor.

Sit this one out.

I don't want you there.

Fine!

Who needs you anyway?

Now, just hold it.

Now, tell me what's happening.

Scoggs is dead.

- Who did it? - I... I don't know...

but I think he was after me.

We've got to get back to the shelter and clear everyone out.

- Why? - I don't have time to explain.

Kincaid, the military's after you. What kind of trouble are you in?

I don't know, but I'll handle it.

It's too late for that. Now, tell me what's happening.

I have to get back to the shelter before he does.

Who?

We need John Kincaid.

Without him, we can't find his brother.

I've told you. It's impossible. Max Kincaid is dead.

Yes, you did tell me that. You told me that.

Let me tell you something. Dead men don't turn up on video tape,

they don't kill MPs,

they don't steal sensitive files.

And think about this... Two of Max's ex-partners

wound up dead on the street tonight.

Now, my money says that his brother is going to be next.

I can't believe, even if Max was alive,

that he'd have anything to do with hurting John.

He's been missing for a year!

A lot can be done to a man's mind in a year.

If it is Max,

he'll go home.

Oh, God.

Mom?

Mom?

Hi, Max.

Why did it fire? What happened?

- I don't know - It's a malfunction in the program.

Correct it.

Look, he's located his target.

- Debi! - Harrison, someone's in the shelter!

Get her out of here!

Suzanne! Get down!

Mom!

Okay, go.

No, get down!

- He's after me! - Mom! Mom!

- We've got to get after him. - After who?

Max Kincaid.

Max!

Max!

Max!

Your friend Kincaid just made one real big mistake.

Debi, go down to the shelter and get the first aid kit.

It's his brother, Colonel.

Let me go after him. I can reason with him.

No, you can't, Blackwood!

No human being could do what he did

or survive the number of bullets that were pumped into him.

He may look like Max Kincaid, but he isn't.

He's a cyborg.

We don't have that kind of technology.

No, maybe you don't...

but others do.

I'm going to call in bigger equipment.

Maybe he can stand up to bullets.

Let's see how he does against a grenade launcher.

And as far as I'm concerned, he and his brother are in this together.

Where would he have gone?

The place he died.

Let's get you inside.

Come on.

Max.

Max.

I'm not going to let you walk into this alone.

What's the matter with the unit?

- Why doesn't it fire? - I don't know.

The program... it needs more power.

Max, it's me...

John.

Pay attention to detail, John.

If the General's right, we're getting into something we can't predict.

It could be a vestige of human memory.

You told me he had none,

that he was completely under our direction.

This is your program, your cyborg, Mana.

I'll increase the power.

It's me, man... John.

John... your brother, man.

I know you remember me.

Remember this place...

What happened here?

It's going to be okay.

I'll take you someplace safe.

Walk into this alone... You guys know each other?

- Yes! - Things don't always turn out.

It's okay.

He's waited too long. Destroy it... now.

Destroy him!

No!

All soldiers with me now!

No.

He is my responsibility.

No!

What have those bastards done to you, man?

I won't let you walk into this alone.

Max.

John?

Max!

Can't locate... eliminate...

No hot-dogging!

I don't want a partner like you.

Eliminate!

Goddamn kid.

I need someone I can depend on.

By the book!

Sit this one out!

Eliminate him!

No!

I know you're going to have to kill me, Max.

And I don't know how much of this you can understand...

but I'm still your bother.

Max, you were right.

It was my fault.

I just didn't listen to you. It's my fault they did this to you!

I just wanted to be like you.

Now, do it! Now!

Johnny!

You remember.

This is a reconnaissance mission, John.

Take a look around you

and get out.

- No hot-dogging. - Max, there's no mission.

We're going to do this my way... By the book, John,

or I go in alone.

Pay attention to details.

If the General is right,

we could be getting into something we can't predict.

Max.

There's no Army, Max.

They'll move in on our signal.

Ready?

I'm going to do it right this time.

We'll stay together. I'm going to look after you.

Kincaid!

What am I going to do about you, John?

Fire!

Fire!

Fire!
