Scorpions in a Bottle

1 Previously on "Six" Aah! Aah! Aah! It's really nice to meet your family.
So when does your dad get back? [EXPLOSION.]
You have a serious brain injury.
The next one could be fatal.
There's something I need to tell you.
We've been ordered to trade Nasry for Andrew Hall.
Understood? - I'm here, aren't I? - Yes, you are.
Trevor: Beautiful downtown Khishnet.
ORTIZ: Six armed unknowns approaching the village.
No sign of Andrew Hall.
GRAVES: The exchange isn't supposed to happen for another half-hour.
Get Michael inside.
Keep an eye on him.
[GUNSHOT.]
[RAPID GUNFIRE.]
- GRAVES: It's an ambush! - Aah! [EXHALES SHARPLY.]
- You good? - Yeah, I'm fine.
Let's go! They came for me.
They knew my name.
I'm letting Nasry go.
The Prince kills Nasry, you get what you want.
What's option two? Nasry kills The Prince, and I get what I want.
Pretend you escaped the attack.
Get them to take you in.
- I'd never last a day.
- I'm giving you an opportunity.
No, this isn't an opportunity.
You give me The Prince, and I'll give you his kingdom.

I was with Akmal when he was killed in Chad.
He was like a brother to me.
He died a hero, for a just and noble cause.
If it was so noble, perhaps you should have died with him.
[VEHICLE APPROACHING.]
You did the right thing.
That was a hell of a ride.
ORTIZ: Hell of a lot bumpier than it had to be.
GRAVES: Look, we're all pissed, and we should be.
But we did our jobs.
You remember that.
- Yeah, that makes you wonder.
- Wonder what? I don't think you understand what happened out there.
We got suckered, Sleeper.
Oh.
Female on deck.
Look, I know it was rough, but letting Nasry go was the last shot we had.
"We"? You mean you.
- Decision's on me.
- Yeah, damn straight it is.
Buddha.
She did what she had to do.
[LATCHES CLICKING.]
- [CHUCKLES.]
- [MEN PATTING BAGS.]
You got something to say to me? I'm just wondering whose back you got, hers or ours? Buddy, you have to move on.
I'm sorry, Jefe, but I can't do that.
I'm never gonna do that.
Ever since Rip died, you have questioned every decision that I have made for this team.
That has to stop.
Now.
Hughes wants a hot wash in 10.
[GATE RATTLES.]
- North swell's coming in.
- [SURF ROLLING.]
What are you doing? Drinking wine.
[CHUCKLES.]
My wine.
Put it away.
Done.
[LAUGHS.]
Check this out.
What is that, a fixer-upper or a hurricane relief ad? Seriously, Alex? It's a surf shop in Santa Cruz.
It's for sale.
Let me guess You're gonna buy it.
Nope.
You are.
- [LAUGHS.]
Yeah, right.
- Come on, Alex.
Think about it.
Let's find that girl you can't stop talking about.
- Dawn? - Yeah.
She sounds cool.
Let's find her and head out to California.
I get how important the team is to you.
I really do.
But it took me 18 years to get a dad.
I don't want to lose him now.
You could do this.
We can do this.
I'll think about it.
Show me some more pictures.
Okay.
Inside.
[DOOR CREAKS.]
Got something I want you to see.
[TURNS ON MONITOR.]
Turn it off.
We know how it ends.
[TURNS OFF MONITOR.]
[REMOTE CLATTERS.]
I have an affidavit from Kilcannon that you shot that man in cold blood.
He was trying to kill my asset.
Your asset? Michael Nasry, the asset you let go? The asset that was supposed to bring back Andrew Hall? The President's Andrew Hall? Letting Nasry go was our best shot at getting Hall back.
So you put us on the line because you have faith in a terrorist.
We have video of Nasry working with us.
He knows that if he doesn't bring us Hall, we release the tapes.
He could end up being our highest placed asset.
Your clearance has been revoked.
H.
R.
will give back your retirement contributions, give you a head start on the rest of your life.
This is complete bullshit.
This is still in play.
We still have a shot at getting Andrew Cline! This is how this is gonna work.
We have to do a Justice referral on this shooting.
You keep your mouth shut, you never contact Nasry again, you don't lawyer up, this affidavit stays in a vault, and the video disappears.
Otherwise, the charge will be murder.
[BRAKES SQUEAL.]

[LAMB BLEATS.]
[MOUTHS WORDS.]
Akhy.
As-salamu alaykum.
Wa 'alykum as-salam.
Michael [SIGHS.]
Allah the merciful has saved you and brought you to me.
Allah's Will be done.
Allah's Will.
It's difficult to know what that is sometimes, isn't it? Why did you ask for me? To trade.
To get you out of the clutches of the CIA.
I can't begin to imagine what that bitch did to you.
She killed Vlad, after she broke him.
He told her about the safe house for Andrew Hall.
Did she break you, Michael? You've never been taken.
Everyone breaks.
The only thing you can do is give them as little as possible.
As little as possible? [SCOFFS.]
SEALs raided my club in Sarajevo, Michael.
They killed Timur, killed his detail.
But you know this, don't you? [SNIFFS.]
The infidels, they came to the field in Bosnia, where my family my son Was executed by Christian murderers.
They came to the field that only my most trusted associates have been to where you pledged your loyalty to me.
How did they know? How did they know?! You ordered Muttaqi to have Boko Haram kill me.
You tried to kill me two days ago with those amateurs you sent against the SEALs.
Do you know why I box? [CLEARS THROAT.]
It isn't about violence or politics.
[UNSHEATHES KNIFE.]
It is an art.
It has meaning.
And it is as intimate as fucking a woman.
To land a meaningful blow, you must stand close enough to be hit.
Before you kill me, you should know the CIA wants me to infiltrate you.
They want me to be their mole.
[LAMB BLEATING.]
And I bet you they gave you the name of someone in my organization, someone on their payroll.
And to prove your bona fides, or whatever they call it, you'll tell me that name, to gain my trust, huh? Javed Osmani, your Pakistani courier.
And now he's dead.
- But I still don't trust you.
- Okay, but she does.
So feed her false Intel through me.
- [LAMB GRUNTS.]
- [SPEAKING ARABIC.]
The FSB would love that.
- [CONTINUES SPEAKING ARABIC.]
- [GRUNTS.]
[CONTINUES SPEAKING ARABIC.]
[THUD.]
Dazur, Fyodor, take Michael.
Put him with Andrew Hall.
[THUD.]
[ZIP TIE WHIRS.]
[DOOR CREAKS CLOSED.]
Who are you? [SIGHS.]
Well, that was some shitshow.
Always is when the President gets personally involved.
- Yes, Sir.
- Here's my take on how this went down.
You were unexpectedly attacked.
You defended your HVI and your team.
Then your CIA officer big-footed you, let Nasry go, on her own.
Is that right? - That is correct.
- Yes, Sir.
You made the best call you could, given the circumstances, right? - That's right.
- Right? This is going way upstairs, boys.
Mm.
I'm gonna have your back.
So is there anything else I should be aware of? No, Sir.
No, Sir.
- Okay, then.
- GRAVES: Thank you, Sir.
I still think you made the wrong call.
[DOOR CLOSES.]
You get your own team, and you make your own calls.
[DOOR SQUEAKS.]
[DOOR CLOSES.]
Bear.
- Hey.
- You let Nasry go? [INHALES DEEPLY.]
Yes, Alex, we let Nasry go.
He cut a deal that's above our pay grade, okay? That's insane.
After everything we did to bring Rip home, and his killer just walks, just like that? Hey, who the hell made the call? Who do you think made the call, Alex? Son of a bitch.
He's got a week to give us The Prince.
- If he doesn't, he's dead.
- [GRUNTS.]
I should've killed him in Chad.
Every time I saw that shitbird, I thought of Rip, and I wanted to empty a magazine into his face.
Okay? I'm sorry, man.
I'm sorry I wasn't there.
Yeah, me, too.
Me, too.
[SIGHS DEEPLY.]
I saw Lena.
Where? Out.
Was she alone? You know what? I don't wanna know.
[SNIFFS, GRUNTS.]
How's the hand? Great, 'cause I'm a miracle, and we already knew that.
Uh-huh.
You all right? I need you back on the team.
So can you clear medical and be good to go? [SCRIBBLING.]
- Bear - Can you clear medical and be good to go? I'll be good to go.
All right.

No, man.
We just call him Chase.
Hmm.
Does it bother you, killing people? See, the thing I noticed is that everyone is surprised at the moment of their death.
Everyone.
You can see it in their eyes, thinking that this has to be a mistake, that they're special to the very end.

He will be returned to the United States as a peace offering, one president to another.
In exchange for what? Credit, trust both of which you've lost.
