SEAL Team (2017) s03e06 Episode Script
All Along the Watchtower: Part 2
Previously on "SEAL Team" Goodbye.
You and Davis.
How long have you two been playing house - behind the team's back? - It is so good to see that you're back on your damn high horse again.
We look at the way you move, fight, sleep, eat, breathe, and we figure out ways to help you do every single one of those things better.
Everything about you so clean and tight, I don't trust it.
You have to prove yourself to me, and the only way to do that is by showing up when our ass is in the fire.
Till then, just stay out of my way.
U.
S.
Ambassador Nicole Marsden is traveling to North Yemen to ease tensions between two tribes there, the Bakil and the Hashid.
The Bakil are led by a madman! It is an insult to me that you would meet with such a man.
Meeting is the only way to talk.
"Diplomacy's a process.
Don't rock the boat".
Navy's not real big on vessel rocking.
We all got to start rocking it.
Lady's something else.
More focused on the task at hand than her career.
Not exactly following the politician playbook.
There's a situation developing near the compound.
This is Bravo 2.
We got troops in contact.
I say again, troops in contact.
I've got a man down.
Move, move, move, move.
Ensign Davis, do you believe you can find them a safe path to the airport? This is verging on a Blackwater Fallujah scenario, and I don't want these boys hanging from a bridge.
- You understand? - Yes, sir.
Three soft-skin vehicles evading an unknown number of enemy - for six miles.
- And we'll be with them for every inch of it.
Sonny, Brock, Metal, pull the cars around here.
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Incoming! Cover! Havoc, this is 1.
We have no way out of here.
Stand by, 1.
Working on it now.
We got to move these people! Go! Go, go, go! Fall back! Come on! Go, go, go! Last man! All stations, this is Bravo 5.
Be advised My people are all accounted for.
They're terrified but alive.
Keep them down here and keep them calm.
- Got it? - Got it.
- What's the word, brother? - All right.
Clay, Brock, Vic, Metal, - up on the roof.
- Let's go.
Sonny, you're with me.
Time to put some numbers on the board, boys.
Chief? Sir? Sir? Uh, I don't need to tell you the urgency of evacuating - the ambassador and her immediate staff - No, you sure don't.
There-There's still a car on the property.
Hey, go sharpen some pencils, all right? And put some earplugs in.
Is Daniel causing problems? Oh, Bill Nye the Science Guy's exactly - what this situation ordered.
- Sonny, shut it.
Daniel's greater good is Daniel.
However, he steps out of line again, we send him out as target practice.
- Yes, ma'am.
- Ooh-ee.
Ambassador's got some swag.
Mortars, rockets.
The Bakil forces are mounting a full coordinated assault.
Five minutes, everyone.
I need anything even resembling an exfil option on my desk.
Wheels, rotors, whatever's gonna get our people the hell out of there.
Yeah, without escalating the situation.
Bravo 2, this is Havoc.
Radio check, over.
Good check.
Go for 2.
Yeah, I need a sitrep.
ISR feed is clouded with smoke.
We're working on an exfil platform now, but we need to know what we're looking at.
We've got eight evacuees along with Athena, plus one DSSA, wounded but stable.
We're strong-holding the compound from three positions.
Taking rockets and mortar fire from an unknown number of enemy combatants with SAF and at least three vehicles with heavy guns.
We've seen enough of this place, Havoc.
Uber out of here would be real nice right about now.
Yeah, we're working on it now.
Hang in there.
Havoc out.
Rocket.
They're probably loading it.
What is it? Think it's a GTB-7S.
You do realize the fact that you can tell that from here is a bit freakish, right? I like freakish.
- Ready? - Yeah.
They're gonna ram the gate, boss! Hit 'em! Hold what you got.
Hold what you got.
Save your ammo.
We're going nowhere fast.
Roger that.
Contact rear! Contact rear! What the hell is that? Technical.
Vehicle-mounted Triple-A.
Eats new guys for breakfast.
That means move, Vic! Hey.
Hey, north side, get some fire on that guy.
Moving.
Competent.
You think they're retreating? Where the hell'd they all go? I was just getting in the zone.
Hey, it got awfully quiet.
They're reloading.
They're regrouping.
Bravo 2, what have you got? I don't know, it looks like they all pulled back.
Bravo 6, need a sitrep.
Yeah, enemy bugged out all at once.
They're all on comms.
They're coordinated.
They're planning a second attack.
Let's go.
Back in the residence.
Sir, I've got three helos spinning up.
Polish PZL W-3 Falcons on a UN aid mission 100 klicks outside the city.
Capacity to pull everyone off of the compound and get them back to the airfield.
- 100 klicks, we're looking at - They're gonna be there within an hour.
- Nice work, Ensign Davis.
- Sir, there is an issue.
Let me guess: they won't fly into a hot LZ? - Not in daylight hours, at least.
- Understandable.
Well, let's hope the LZ stays quiet.
40 minutes until help arrives? Long as everything remains quiet.
Fact that we're still standing is a testament to you and your team.
We're just doing our job.
Wish I was as good at my job as you seem to be at yours.
Well, it's a lot easier to convince people to pick up guns than it is to put them down.
They need to evacuate you right now, okay? There's still a car on the grounds.
- We can be transported out.
- Daniel, I'm not jumping into a lifeboat before my staff.
I don't go until everyone goes.
Uh, yes, ma'am.
Why don't you go see if any of our dear colleagues need help.
Amazing how fear can reveal a person.
I'm sure he'll be the first one out when our helos arrive.
Not first, but only because his lips are permanently attached to my ass.
Yo.
How you holding up? Kid bagged a couple barbarians at the gate.
Always be careful of the quiet ones.
They were just chumming the waters with the old B team on that wave.
Not exactly heavy lifting.
There will be more coming for sure.
Yeah, well, we all pull our own weight and pull in the same direction, we'll be good, right, Spenser? Yeah, I'm-a go upstairs.
Hitting the roof.
You know, I don't think he likes me much.
Neither do I.
Don't take it personal, though.
Ain't nobody like the new guy.
It's true.
I like the kid.
Now clean that up.
Ain't a good look for you, Clay.
What's that? Look, I'm all about putting Green Team meat through the grinder.
Holding up the standard, guarding the gate, but how you're treating Vic, man, there something sideways with you? I'm fine.
I get it.
You're not the new guy on the team anymore and you're not in a place where you can be calling the shots.
Is that it? And? And ambition is a dirty word.
You just got to be happy where you are, brother.
Why are we talking about me right now when-when you're the one who's going sideways? Since when do you beg to work PSD? Since Yemen has been on my bucket list, Clay.
They got this brown-meat stew that's supposedly to die for.
There's no frickin' way that you volunteer to work a personal security gig unless something's up with you, man.
Hey, nothing's up.
I just didn't want to miss out on the fun.
Yeah, okay.
Go ahead, sit there and suffer in silence, but I know something's up with you.
She ended it with me.
- Your girl? - Yeah.
- Why? - Ain't no why.
Uh, just out of the blue.
It is what it is.
Serves me right, though.
Why do you say that? I just I ain't ever opened myself up like that with anyone before.
And I ain't ever gonna do it again.
But I'll tell you what.
I'll go get myself a dog.
Yeah.
'Cause the worse thing that little thing can do to me is crap in my Stetson.
It's all right, man, you'll bounce back.
The only bouncing that's in Sonny Quinn's future is in the champagne room.
Why do you think she did it out of the blue? You think someone got in her ear? Bravo 6, what's your sitrep? Yeah, it's, uh, it's all quiet up here.
Roger that.
Bravo 2 out.
Yeah.
I think maybe someone did get in her head.
Anything good on TV? A little too much action for my taste.
Well, it's a good thing - that the enemy took a commercial break, huh? - Yeah.
The cameras outside the wall don't show much.
All clear for now.
Hey, I scrounged up some coffee in the kitchen.
You want some? Yeah, I would kill for some.
New gig wasn't supposed to put you in the action so deep.
Ray was saying you were practically Bravo 3 while you were held up.
I wouldn't go that far, but I did develop a sudden taste for Skoal and human anatomy jokes.
I knew you had it in you.
I'll get a little worried, though, if you start chugging beer out of Bojinka's leg.
Uh, this kind of work is what drew me to the Agency to begin with.
Sitting behind a laptop is not why I joined.
Never saw you as a desk jockey, that's for sure.
Never saw that Mandy.
Maybe that's why we've always gotten along so well.
Mm.
I haven't seen much of you since Belgrade.
How's it going? Good.
Well, the team is, you know, keeping their edge, kicking in doors, taking care of business.
Good.
Okay, well, how about you? Outside of Bravo? Me? Yeah.
You know not exactly what I thought I would have drawn up 20 years ago, but guy like me? Guess I'm good.
Yeah, I'm good.
Well, we all want life to happen on our own terms, - but how often does that actually work out? - Well, this type of work never, that's for sure.
What was that? What's that? Play that back.
Whoa.
Enemy's in the compound.
All Bravo Team, we got Tangos on the inside.
- How many? - Least two that I saw.
It's gonna be tough keeping eyes on the outside when we're hunting enemy inside.
All right, Metal, this is 1.
Meet us at the main entrance of the residence ASAP.
Bravo 6, at your six.
How copy? Bravo 6 to Bravo 1.
I've got you.
You owe me, Ray.
I had him.
Compound's clear.
How'd they gain access? Must have jumped the east wall.
I found a section of carpet - tossed over the razor wire there.
- Look, this can't happen again.
Full Metal, what do you got? GPS tracker.
All right, I'll go get this to Mandy.
Check the blind spots, get a roving patrol.
Check.
Then keep trying, work your sources.
- Find a way to get through.
- Ma'am, we've resecured the compound.
Helos are ten minutes out.
Nice work, but I may need longer than that.
Longer is not an option.
I tracked down a Hashid elder that might have some influence.
- They're getting him on the line.
- Tell me when you have him.
You have to get your people together.
- We got to evacuate.
- They're ready.
I'm not.
The Hashid tribe is mobilizing to assault any remaining Bakil forces.
That's good.
We could get our helos in then.
Open war between these tribes will bulldoze any hope of peace in this region for generations.
If I leave before getting the Hashid to stand down, this devolves into a bloodbath.
Now that bloodbath will be on my hands.
Our country's hands.
I can't leave until I've completed my mission.
I understand that, but we got to roll.
- Don't have time.
- Hey, wait a minute.
See, you're a lot like me.
You could be riding a desk in some air-conditioned op center instead of dodging bullets at your age.
So you understand exactly why I can't leave.
Everyone's set.
Holding fast.
Helos are eight mikes out.
You got eight minutes.
Come on.
Let's go! Come on! Yeah, sorry I didn't clean off the blood.
It's their blood, not ours.
Doesn't bother me.
Let's see what our intruders were up to.
They weren't inside long, you know.
We took 'em out fast.
Cell phone sent one text before we spotted them.
Message went to a dozen contacts.
What does the message say? It's a string of numbers.
Well, they definitely weren't playing Keno.
GPS coordinates.
They were tagging targets.
They only sent one location.
This building.
- We've got to get everybody out of here.
- Got to move.
Ma'am, the helos are inbound.
Two mikes.
- Bravo should have a visual on them soon.
- Thank you, IT2.
Sir? Come take a look at this.
Sir, the enemy appears to be prepping for a second-wave assault.
I see it.
Looks like they're setting up mortar positions.
The compound is not under fire, the LZ is still clear.
Well, you're looking at the same picture I am, Ensign.
The helos'll probably make it in, but once those mortars start dropping Helos are gonna get torn up along with everyone in 'em.
Exactly.
I need to wave 'em off.
Orzet 1-8, this is Havoc Base.
Be advised you have multiple enemy mortar positions on target.
This is a hot LZ.
Abort extract.
I say again, abort extract.
Havoc Base, this is Orzet 1-8.
We copy.
Hot LZ.
We are RTB.
All right.
I'll call the boys.
Sir, it was my call.
I should tell them.
Bravo 1, this is Havoc Base.
Be advised you have major enemy activity surrounding the diplomatic compound, including at least three mortar positions.
That's a good copy, Havoc.
How far out is the exfil? The helo extract has been waved off.
I say again, your helo extract has been aborted.
We can't bring 'em into a hot LZ.
Ah, that's a good copy, Havoc.
Havoc, this is 1.
They're dialing in on the residence.
We have to move everybody to the south building.
Copy, 1.
- Move! Move.
- What happened with the helicopters? - Where are they? - Move! Got to move.
Let's go.
Move! Move! South building.
Everyone in the back.
On your left.
Move! Move! Move! Move! Move! Move! Move! Move! Move! Everybody inside! Move! Let's go! Let's go! Let's go! Stay with me, everyone! Basement, get 'em to the basement.
Everybody.
Everybody, stay with me! Stay with me! Hey, what the hell was that? I don't know, let's go find out.
- VBID just ripped this wall right open.
- Yeah, yeah.
Take that guy out.
Havoc this is 1.
They breached the outer compound.
We're gonna be overrun.
Soften us up with mortars, then send a VBID through the wall.
Somebody's out there thinking, brother.
Okay, tell you what.
We'll flank 'em.
Hey.
You guys stay here.
Clay, with me.
Move.
They're trying to take that DShK.
We got to keep them out there.
I got an idea.
Spense, hold! Stop! Damn it.
Spenser, move! Think we bought ourselves a little time.
Yeah, but tell you what, you get an idea like that again, you come to me first, you understand? Sounds good, boss.
Hey, you good? - I'm fine.
- You're limping.
Overwatch, keep an eye on the breech point.
Our guys ain't gonna hold out much longer now that I called off their lifeline.
Yeah, well, look at the residence.
Helos would've suffered the same fate.
Then why do I feel like I just left our team out to dry? 'Cause you did.
Feeling that way's better than having two birds downed with everyone inside, your team included.
Bravo's still alive, and they are fighting.
We're gonna get them out, but only if you're at 100%.
I'm there.
Let's bring them home.
Let's bring them home.
All right, listen up, hey.
Suggestion box is open.
What do you think? I say we pull the pin on this Atomic Blond and throw it over the wall again.
Sun's down, dark might let us try the helo exfil again.
We can't hold that long.
When I was outside, there was a bus parked about 50 feet from the wall breach.
Yeah, I don't know.
I say we avoid all transportation right now.
It's big enough, it can fit everyone.
Does it run? There's no way I'm gonna run a gauntlet with these people, so they end up sitting in a bullet sponge.
I saw it pull up right before everything popped off.
- It'll run.
Yep.
- You sure? We can't play Alamo much longer.
Next wave is gonna be their hardest punch.
- Yeah.
- We got a secondary vehicle still running.
We use that to pull security for the Partridge Family exfil.
Sounds good.
Okay.
Convoy it is.
Let's go.
All right, let's go.
Bravo 4, how's it going up there? Good for now.
They're still hanging back.
All right, look, Sonny, you and I will get the SUV, understand? And we'll drive to the breached wall right here.
You two, get everybody ready, and do not collapse the roof position till you hear my cue.
Sonny and I, we're gonna lay down fire right here - to clear a path to the bus.
You got it? - Okay.
Just about to make our move, Ambassador.
I still haven't connected with the Hashid tribal leaders.
From all reports, they're mobilizing forces.
Full-blown tribal war will poison this entire area.
You can call the Hashid when we get to the embassy.
It'll be too late by then.
Now, I came here to put out this fire, not run from it.
Ambassador, you've done your best.
Let us do ours now.
There's a hardline phone on the second floor of this building.
I cannot leave without making one more attempt to get through.
The opposition's gonna start lobbing mortars on this building.
We don't have time.
Master Chief, if you're half the leader I think you are, you know I can't throw in the towel without firing my best shot.
Jace, we got to go.
I wouldn't ask if this wasn't life and death.
I need to use that phone.
We don't have the time.
Jason.
If Ambassador Marsden believes that one phone call can make a difference, that's good enough for me.
I'll go with her.
Like I said, Clay, ambition's a dirty word.
Look, we'll go up, we'll make the phone call.
You guys get everybody ready.
We'll meet on the first deck.
J I'll go with them, too.
Five minutes.
- Let's go.
- Thank you.
Yes, sir.
You have my word.
Withhold your forces, and I will not leave your borders until we've secured the lasting peace your people deserve.
I promise you that.
Yes, sir.
Yes, sir.
Thank you.
Thank you, sir.
I will contact you from the embassy as soon as I arrive.
Okay.
They're standing down for now.
Well done, ma'am.
Well done.
I'd rather stare down the bad end of an AK than have to make that call.
You have balls of brass, Ambassador.
No matter how dark it gets, always have to convince yourself you can see the light.
Well, ma'am, if you're done working miracles, we need to get back downstairs.
- Now.
- Thank you for standing up for me, Clay.
Thank you, Senior Chief.
You have changed the lives of the people in this region.
Yeah, well, the people outside shooting at us have a funny way of showing their appreciation, so we do need to move.
How's that for vessel rocking? Second floor.
That's where Clay and Ray were headed.
Bravo 2, status? Come on, Ray.
Bravo 6, status? Ambassador, come on.
Stay with me.
Stay with me.
Stay with me, Ambassador.
Ambassador! You'll be okay.
Her pulse is barely there.
Got abdominal laceration, neck laceration, compound rib fracture.
Ray.
- Hey.
She's bad.
She's bad.
- Damn it.
Stay with me, you hear me? Ambassador, stay with me.
Bravo 2, radio check, over.
You hear me? You're gonna be all right.
Bravo 1, I hear you Lima Charlie.
Athena's down.
Trying to stabilize her now.
Copy all.
Get outside ASAP.
We're moving.
Check.
Stay-stay with me.
Ambassador.
- We got to move her outside.
- If we move her We don't have a choice.
- All right.
- Let's go.
Smoke out.
The only move we have.
Bravo 2, heading your way.
I thought the plan was to exit through the breached wall.
It is.
Look.
A distraction.
Draw the enemy, go out the back door.
Smoke's working, but they're wising up, boss.
Let's see how wise they are to this.
Coming inside, coming inside.
Stay.
Stay here.
Go, go, go, go, go! Go, go, go, go, go! Move, move, move! Oh! Clay! I got you! Move! You'll be all right, Ambassador.
Easy.
Easy.
You'll be all right.
All right, anyone without a gun, get low, and stay out of the windows, okay? Havoc, this is 1.
Hitting the road.
We could use your help.
Best route to the airfield.
Bravo 1, this is Havoc Base.
We read you, Lima Charlie.
Baker, widen out.
Give me a four-block radius.
Bravo 1, I'm tracking your position.
Everything looks clear up ahead.
Good copy.
Ma'am, we have a trailing vehicle.
Damn it.
Bravo 1, be advised, you have what appears to be an enemy technical vehicle on course to intercept your convoy.
This isn't over.
Enemy technical is two blocks north, moving fast in your direction.
Advise you turn left in 300 meters.
They're not shaking 'em.
Havoc to Bravo 1, that enemy technical is approximately 100 meters behind your trail vehicle.
Everybody get down! Vic, you got the well gun.
We got the trail.
Bravo 2, you got the lead.
Roger that.
Coming up on your right.
Light 'em up, Vic! Bravo 4, we need some distance between us and them.
Pick up your speed.
Bravo 1, we're already redlining up here.
Can't push this thing much harder, J.
Good copy.
The hell are they? They break down? Can't tell.
They stopped responding to my calls.
Get Orzet 1-8 back on the horn to stand by.
We may still have to fly 'em out of there.
On it.
Keep reeling 'em in, J.
Execute.
Everyone hold on.
We're moving out.
How's she doing? Such a loss.
What's up? You all right? I failed her.
No, you didn't.
You didn't fail her.
Look, she stopped a war from happening.
That's a good thing.
She would want us to celebrate her victory, not mourn her.
Got it? Hey.
Let's go home.
That was a, uh that was a rough one, huh? Yeah.
You did good, new guy.
Thanks.
You, uh, you pull something? Groin, I think.
Minute I stop thinking about it, it'll fix itself.
The age-old Hayes method, huh? You got that fancy physiologist hanging around base.
Might be worth a visit.
I'm fine, Ray.
All right.
Yeah.
Love you.
Naima and the kids are at her folks' for the weekend.
Got to fend for myself.
You want to grab a beer? Nah, I'm good.
Sonny, I'm buying, brother.
Said no once.
Don't see why I need to say it again.
Ray, I'm in if you're buying.
Yeah? All right, let's do it.
Let's, uh You know what, we can pour one out for the ambassador.
She was, uh she was different, wasn't she? They broke the mold with that one.
It's not every day you meet a politician you want to run into a fire for, right? Yeah, I think she had more door kicker in her than politician.
Yeah.
Just, um I wish there was more we could do for her, you know? Me, too, brother.
Me, too.
Come on.
You and Davis.
How long have you two been playing house - behind the team's back? - It is so good to see that you're back on your damn high horse again.
We look at the way you move, fight, sleep, eat, breathe, and we figure out ways to help you do every single one of those things better.
Everything about you so clean and tight, I don't trust it.
You have to prove yourself to me, and the only way to do that is by showing up when our ass is in the fire.
Till then, just stay out of my way.
U.
S.
Ambassador Nicole Marsden is traveling to North Yemen to ease tensions between two tribes there, the Bakil and the Hashid.
The Bakil are led by a madman! It is an insult to me that you would meet with such a man.
Meeting is the only way to talk.
"Diplomacy's a process.
Don't rock the boat".
Navy's not real big on vessel rocking.
We all got to start rocking it.
Lady's something else.
More focused on the task at hand than her career.
Not exactly following the politician playbook.
There's a situation developing near the compound.
This is Bravo 2.
We got troops in contact.
I say again, troops in contact.
I've got a man down.
Move, move, move, move.
Ensign Davis, do you believe you can find them a safe path to the airport? This is verging on a Blackwater Fallujah scenario, and I don't want these boys hanging from a bridge.
- You understand? - Yes, sir.
Three soft-skin vehicles evading an unknown number of enemy - for six miles.
- And we'll be with them for every inch of it.
Sonny, Brock, Metal, pull the cars around here.
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Incoming! Cover! Havoc, this is 1.
We have no way out of here.
Stand by, 1.
Working on it now.
We got to move these people! Go! Go, go, go! Fall back! Come on! Go, go, go! Last man! All stations, this is Bravo 5.
Be advised My people are all accounted for.
They're terrified but alive.
Keep them down here and keep them calm.
- Got it? - Got it.
- What's the word, brother? - All right.
Clay, Brock, Vic, Metal, - up on the roof.
- Let's go.
Sonny, you're with me.
Time to put some numbers on the board, boys.
Chief? Sir? Sir? Uh, I don't need to tell you the urgency of evacuating - the ambassador and her immediate staff - No, you sure don't.
There-There's still a car on the property.
Hey, go sharpen some pencils, all right? And put some earplugs in.
Is Daniel causing problems? Oh, Bill Nye the Science Guy's exactly - what this situation ordered.
- Sonny, shut it.
Daniel's greater good is Daniel.
However, he steps out of line again, we send him out as target practice.
- Yes, ma'am.
- Ooh-ee.
Ambassador's got some swag.
Mortars, rockets.
The Bakil forces are mounting a full coordinated assault.
Five minutes, everyone.
I need anything even resembling an exfil option on my desk.
Wheels, rotors, whatever's gonna get our people the hell out of there.
Yeah, without escalating the situation.
Bravo 2, this is Havoc.
Radio check, over.
Good check.
Go for 2.
Yeah, I need a sitrep.
ISR feed is clouded with smoke.
We're working on an exfil platform now, but we need to know what we're looking at.
We've got eight evacuees along with Athena, plus one DSSA, wounded but stable.
We're strong-holding the compound from three positions.
Taking rockets and mortar fire from an unknown number of enemy combatants with SAF and at least three vehicles with heavy guns.
We've seen enough of this place, Havoc.
Uber out of here would be real nice right about now.
Yeah, we're working on it now.
Hang in there.
Havoc out.
Rocket.
They're probably loading it.
What is it? Think it's a GTB-7S.
You do realize the fact that you can tell that from here is a bit freakish, right? I like freakish.
- Ready? - Yeah.
They're gonna ram the gate, boss! Hit 'em! Hold what you got.
Hold what you got.
Save your ammo.
We're going nowhere fast.
Roger that.
Contact rear! Contact rear! What the hell is that? Technical.
Vehicle-mounted Triple-A.
Eats new guys for breakfast.
That means move, Vic! Hey.
Hey, north side, get some fire on that guy.
Moving.
Competent.
You think they're retreating? Where the hell'd they all go? I was just getting in the zone.
Hey, it got awfully quiet.
They're reloading.
They're regrouping.
Bravo 2, what have you got? I don't know, it looks like they all pulled back.
Bravo 6, need a sitrep.
Yeah, enemy bugged out all at once.
They're all on comms.
They're coordinated.
They're planning a second attack.
Let's go.
Back in the residence.
Sir, I've got three helos spinning up.
Polish PZL W-3 Falcons on a UN aid mission 100 klicks outside the city.
Capacity to pull everyone off of the compound and get them back to the airfield.
- 100 klicks, we're looking at - They're gonna be there within an hour.
- Nice work, Ensign Davis.
- Sir, there is an issue.
Let me guess: they won't fly into a hot LZ? - Not in daylight hours, at least.
- Understandable.
Well, let's hope the LZ stays quiet.
40 minutes until help arrives? Long as everything remains quiet.
Fact that we're still standing is a testament to you and your team.
We're just doing our job.
Wish I was as good at my job as you seem to be at yours.
Well, it's a lot easier to convince people to pick up guns than it is to put them down.
They need to evacuate you right now, okay? There's still a car on the grounds.
- We can be transported out.
- Daniel, I'm not jumping into a lifeboat before my staff.
I don't go until everyone goes.
Uh, yes, ma'am.
Why don't you go see if any of our dear colleagues need help.
Amazing how fear can reveal a person.
I'm sure he'll be the first one out when our helos arrive.
Not first, but only because his lips are permanently attached to my ass.
Yo.
How you holding up? Kid bagged a couple barbarians at the gate.
Always be careful of the quiet ones.
They were just chumming the waters with the old B team on that wave.
Not exactly heavy lifting.
There will be more coming for sure.
Yeah, well, we all pull our own weight and pull in the same direction, we'll be good, right, Spenser? Yeah, I'm-a go upstairs.
Hitting the roof.
You know, I don't think he likes me much.
Neither do I.
Don't take it personal, though.
Ain't nobody like the new guy.
It's true.
I like the kid.
Now clean that up.
Ain't a good look for you, Clay.
What's that? Look, I'm all about putting Green Team meat through the grinder.
Holding up the standard, guarding the gate, but how you're treating Vic, man, there something sideways with you? I'm fine.
I get it.
You're not the new guy on the team anymore and you're not in a place where you can be calling the shots.
Is that it? And? And ambition is a dirty word.
You just got to be happy where you are, brother.
Why are we talking about me right now when-when you're the one who's going sideways? Since when do you beg to work PSD? Since Yemen has been on my bucket list, Clay.
They got this brown-meat stew that's supposedly to die for.
There's no frickin' way that you volunteer to work a personal security gig unless something's up with you, man.
Hey, nothing's up.
I just didn't want to miss out on the fun.
Yeah, okay.
Go ahead, sit there and suffer in silence, but I know something's up with you.
She ended it with me.
- Your girl? - Yeah.
- Why? - Ain't no why.
Uh, just out of the blue.
It is what it is.
Serves me right, though.
Why do you say that? I just I ain't ever opened myself up like that with anyone before.
And I ain't ever gonna do it again.
But I'll tell you what.
I'll go get myself a dog.
Yeah.
'Cause the worse thing that little thing can do to me is crap in my Stetson.
It's all right, man, you'll bounce back.
The only bouncing that's in Sonny Quinn's future is in the champagne room.
Why do you think she did it out of the blue? You think someone got in her ear? Bravo 6, what's your sitrep? Yeah, it's, uh, it's all quiet up here.
Roger that.
Bravo 2 out.
Yeah.
I think maybe someone did get in her head.
Anything good on TV? A little too much action for my taste.
Well, it's a good thing - that the enemy took a commercial break, huh? - Yeah.
The cameras outside the wall don't show much.
All clear for now.
Hey, I scrounged up some coffee in the kitchen.
You want some? Yeah, I would kill for some.
New gig wasn't supposed to put you in the action so deep.
Ray was saying you were practically Bravo 3 while you were held up.
I wouldn't go that far, but I did develop a sudden taste for Skoal and human anatomy jokes.
I knew you had it in you.
I'll get a little worried, though, if you start chugging beer out of Bojinka's leg.
Uh, this kind of work is what drew me to the Agency to begin with.
Sitting behind a laptop is not why I joined.
Never saw you as a desk jockey, that's for sure.
Never saw that Mandy.
Maybe that's why we've always gotten along so well.
Mm.
I haven't seen much of you since Belgrade.
How's it going? Good.
Well, the team is, you know, keeping their edge, kicking in doors, taking care of business.
Good.
Okay, well, how about you? Outside of Bravo? Me? Yeah.
You know not exactly what I thought I would have drawn up 20 years ago, but guy like me? Guess I'm good.
Yeah, I'm good.
Well, we all want life to happen on our own terms, - but how often does that actually work out? - Well, this type of work never, that's for sure.
What was that? What's that? Play that back.
Whoa.
Enemy's in the compound.
All Bravo Team, we got Tangos on the inside.
- How many? - Least two that I saw.
It's gonna be tough keeping eyes on the outside when we're hunting enemy inside.
All right, Metal, this is 1.
Meet us at the main entrance of the residence ASAP.
Bravo 6, at your six.
How copy? Bravo 6 to Bravo 1.
I've got you.
You owe me, Ray.
I had him.
Compound's clear.
How'd they gain access? Must have jumped the east wall.
I found a section of carpet - tossed over the razor wire there.
- Look, this can't happen again.
Full Metal, what do you got? GPS tracker.
All right, I'll go get this to Mandy.
Check the blind spots, get a roving patrol.
Check.
Then keep trying, work your sources.
- Find a way to get through.
- Ma'am, we've resecured the compound.
Helos are ten minutes out.
Nice work, but I may need longer than that.
Longer is not an option.
I tracked down a Hashid elder that might have some influence.
- They're getting him on the line.
- Tell me when you have him.
You have to get your people together.
- We got to evacuate.
- They're ready.
I'm not.
The Hashid tribe is mobilizing to assault any remaining Bakil forces.
That's good.
We could get our helos in then.
Open war between these tribes will bulldoze any hope of peace in this region for generations.
If I leave before getting the Hashid to stand down, this devolves into a bloodbath.
Now that bloodbath will be on my hands.
Our country's hands.
I can't leave until I've completed my mission.
I understand that, but we got to roll.
- Don't have time.
- Hey, wait a minute.
See, you're a lot like me.
You could be riding a desk in some air-conditioned op center instead of dodging bullets at your age.
So you understand exactly why I can't leave.
Everyone's set.
Holding fast.
Helos are eight mikes out.
You got eight minutes.
Come on.
Let's go! Come on! Yeah, sorry I didn't clean off the blood.
It's their blood, not ours.
Doesn't bother me.
Let's see what our intruders were up to.
They weren't inside long, you know.
We took 'em out fast.
Cell phone sent one text before we spotted them.
Message went to a dozen contacts.
What does the message say? It's a string of numbers.
Well, they definitely weren't playing Keno.
GPS coordinates.
They were tagging targets.
They only sent one location.
This building.
- We've got to get everybody out of here.
- Got to move.
Ma'am, the helos are inbound.
Two mikes.
- Bravo should have a visual on them soon.
- Thank you, IT2.
Sir? Come take a look at this.
Sir, the enemy appears to be prepping for a second-wave assault.
I see it.
Looks like they're setting up mortar positions.
The compound is not under fire, the LZ is still clear.
Well, you're looking at the same picture I am, Ensign.
The helos'll probably make it in, but once those mortars start dropping Helos are gonna get torn up along with everyone in 'em.
Exactly.
I need to wave 'em off.
Orzet 1-8, this is Havoc Base.
Be advised you have multiple enemy mortar positions on target.
This is a hot LZ.
Abort extract.
I say again, abort extract.
Havoc Base, this is Orzet 1-8.
We copy.
Hot LZ.
We are RTB.
All right.
I'll call the boys.
Sir, it was my call.
I should tell them.
Bravo 1, this is Havoc Base.
Be advised you have major enemy activity surrounding the diplomatic compound, including at least three mortar positions.
That's a good copy, Havoc.
How far out is the exfil? The helo extract has been waved off.
I say again, your helo extract has been aborted.
We can't bring 'em into a hot LZ.
Ah, that's a good copy, Havoc.
Havoc, this is 1.
They're dialing in on the residence.
We have to move everybody to the south building.
Copy, 1.
- Move! Move.
- What happened with the helicopters? - Where are they? - Move! Got to move.
Let's go.
Move! Move! South building.
Everyone in the back.
On your left.
Move! Move! Move! Move! Move! Move! Move! Move! Move! Everybody inside! Move! Let's go! Let's go! Let's go! Stay with me, everyone! Basement, get 'em to the basement.
Everybody.
Everybody, stay with me! Stay with me! Hey, what the hell was that? I don't know, let's go find out.
- VBID just ripped this wall right open.
- Yeah, yeah.
Take that guy out.
Havoc this is 1.
They breached the outer compound.
We're gonna be overrun.
Soften us up with mortars, then send a VBID through the wall.
Somebody's out there thinking, brother.
Okay, tell you what.
We'll flank 'em.
Hey.
You guys stay here.
Clay, with me.
Move.
They're trying to take that DShK.
We got to keep them out there.
I got an idea.
Spense, hold! Stop! Damn it.
Spenser, move! Think we bought ourselves a little time.
Yeah, but tell you what, you get an idea like that again, you come to me first, you understand? Sounds good, boss.
Hey, you good? - I'm fine.
- You're limping.
Overwatch, keep an eye on the breech point.
Our guys ain't gonna hold out much longer now that I called off their lifeline.
Yeah, well, look at the residence.
Helos would've suffered the same fate.
Then why do I feel like I just left our team out to dry? 'Cause you did.
Feeling that way's better than having two birds downed with everyone inside, your team included.
Bravo's still alive, and they are fighting.
We're gonna get them out, but only if you're at 100%.
I'm there.
Let's bring them home.
Let's bring them home.
All right, listen up, hey.
Suggestion box is open.
What do you think? I say we pull the pin on this Atomic Blond and throw it over the wall again.
Sun's down, dark might let us try the helo exfil again.
We can't hold that long.
When I was outside, there was a bus parked about 50 feet from the wall breach.
Yeah, I don't know.
I say we avoid all transportation right now.
It's big enough, it can fit everyone.
Does it run? There's no way I'm gonna run a gauntlet with these people, so they end up sitting in a bullet sponge.
I saw it pull up right before everything popped off.
- It'll run.
Yep.
- You sure? We can't play Alamo much longer.
Next wave is gonna be their hardest punch.
- Yeah.
- We got a secondary vehicle still running.
We use that to pull security for the Partridge Family exfil.
Sounds good.
Okay.
Convoy it is.
Let's go.
All right, let's go.
Bravo 4, how's it going up there? Good for now.
They're still hanging back.
All right, look, Sonny, you and I will get the SUV, understand? And we'll drive to the breached wall right here.
You two, get everybody ready, and do not collapse the roof position till you hear my cue.
Sonny and I, we're gonna lay down fire right here - to clear a path to the bus.
You got it? - Okay.
Just about to make our move, Ambassador.
I still haven't connected with the Hashid tribal leaders.
From all reports, they're mobilizing forces.
Full-blown tribal war will poison this entire area.
You can call the Hashid when we get to the embassy.
It'll be too late by then.
Now, I came here to put out this fire, not run from it.
Ambassador, you've done your best.
Let us do ours now.
There's a hardline phone on the second floor of this building.
I cannot leave without making one more attempt to get through.
The opposition's gonna start lobbing mortars on this building.
We don't have time.
Master Chief, if you're half the leader I think you are, you know I can't throw in the towel without firing my best shot.
Jace, we got to go.
I wouldn't ask if this wasn't life and death.
I need to use that phone.
We don't have the time.
Jason.
If Ambassador Marsden believes that one phone call can make a difference, that's good enough for me.
I'll go with her.
Like I said, Clay, ambition's a dirty word.
Look, we'll go up, we'll make the phone call.
You guys get everybody ready.
We'll meet on the first deck.
J I'll go with them, too.
Five minutes.
- Let's go.
- Thank you.
Yes, sir.
You have my word.
Withhold your forces, and I will not leave your borders until we've secured the lasting peace your people deserve.
I promise you that.
Yes, sir.
Yes, sir.
Thank you.
Thank you, sir.
I will contact you from the embassy as soon as I arrive.
Okay.
They're standing down for now.
Well done, ma'am.
Well done.
I'd rather stare down the bad end of an AK than have to make that call.
You have balls of brass, Ambassador.
No matter how dark it gets, always have to convince yourself you can see the light.
Well, ma'am, if you're done working miracles, we need to get back downstairs.
- Now.
- Thank you for standing up for me, Clay.
Thank you, Senior Chief.
You have changed the lives of the people in this region.
Yeah, well, the people outside shooting at us have a funny way of showing their appreciation, so we do need to move.
How's that for vessel rocking? Second floor.
That's where Clay and Ray were headed.
Bravo 2, status? Come on, Ray.
Bravo 6, status? Ambassador, come on.
Stay with me.
Stay with me.
Stay with me, Ambassador.
Ambassador! You'll be okay.
Her pulse is barely there.
Got abdominal laceration, neck laceration, compound rib fracture.
Ray.
- Hey.
She's bad.
She's bad.
- Damn it.
Stay with me, you hear me? Ambassador, stay with me.
Bravo 2, radio check, over.
You hear me? You're gonna be all right.
Bravo 1, I hear you Lima Charlie.
Athena's down.
Trying to stabilize her now.
Copy all.
Get outside ASAP.
We're moving.
Check.
Stay-stay with me.
Ambassador.
- We got to move her outside.
- If we move her We don't have a choice.
- All right.
- Let's go.
Smoke out.
The only move we have.
Bravo 2, heading your way.
I thought the plan was to exit through the breached wall.
It is.
Look.
A distraction.
Draw the enemy, go out the back door.
Smoke's working, but they're wising up, boss.
Let's see how wise they are to this.
Coming inside, coming inside.
Stay.
Stay here.
Go, go, go, go, go! Go, go, go, go, go! Move, move, move! Oh! Clay! I got you! Move! You'll be all right, Ambassador.
Easy.
Easy.
You'll be all right.
All right, anyone without a gun, get low, and stay out of the windows, okay? Havoc, this is 1.
Hitting the road.
We could use your help.
Best route to the airfield.
Bravo 1, this is Havoc Base.
We read you, Lima Charlie.
Baker, widen out.
Give me a four-block radius.
Bravo 1, I'm tracking your position.
Everything looks clear up ahead.
Good copy.
Ma'am, we have a trailing vehicle.
Damn it.
Bravo 1, be advised, you have what appears to be an enemy technical vehicle on course to intercept your convoy.
This isn't over.
Enemy technical is two blocks north, moving fast in your direction.
Advise you turn left in 300 meters.
They're not shaking 'em.
Havoc to Bravo 1, that enemy technical is approximately 100 meters behind your trail vehicle.
Everybody get down! Vic, you got the well gun.
We got the trail.
Bravo 2, you got the lead.
Roger that.
Coming up on your right.
Light 'em up, Vic! Bravo 4, we need some distance between us and them.
Pick up your speed.
Bravo 1, we're already redlining up here.
Can't push this thing much harder, J.
Good copy.
The hell are they? They break down? Can't tell.
They stopped responding to my calls.
Get Orzet 1-8 back on the horn to stand by.
We may still have to fly 'em out of there.
On it.
Keep reeling 'em in, J.
Execute.
Everyone hold on.
We're moving out.
How's she doing? Such a loss.
What's up? You all right? I failed her.
No, you didn't.
You didn't fail her.
Look, she stopped a war from happening.
That's a good thing.
She would want us to celebrate her victory, not mourn her.
Got it? Hey.
Let's go home.
That was a, uh that was a rough one, huh? Yeah.
You did good, new guy.
Thanks.
You, uh, you pull something? Groin, I think.
Minute I stop thinking about it, it'll fix itself.
The age-old Hayes method, huh? You got that fancy physiologist hanging around base.
Might be worth a visit.
I'm fine, Ray.
All right.
Yeah.
Love you.
Naima and the kids are at her folks' for the weekend.
Got to fend for myself.
You want to grab a beer? Nah, I'm good.
Sonny, I'm buying, brother.
Said no once.
Don't see why I need to say it again.
Ray, I'm in if you're buying.
Yeah? All right, let's do it.
Let's, uh You know what, we can pour one out for the ambassador.
She was, uh she was different, wasn't she? They broke the mold with that one.
It's not every day you meet a politician you want to run into a fire for, right? Yeah, I think she had more door kicker in her than politician.
Yeah.
Just, um I wish there was more we could do for her, you know? Me, too, brother.
Me, too.
Come on.
