SEAL Team (2017) s07e04 Episode Script
Heroes and Criminals
1
Previously on SEAL Team
Tell me about the
namesake, Spenser House.
Clay Spenser.
He was a Navy brother of
mine we lost a few months ago.
Oh, he was the young man who was killed
by a veteran you were treating here?
No, that's, uh, not
what ha what happened.
You're being assigned
full-time to Bravo Team.
- I'm committed to an intensive PRODEV itinerary.
- That ends now.
SONNY: 100 bucks to the
first person that gets Drew
to tell us something real about himself.
- You make that $200.
- Yeah. 200 bucks.
How'd it feel to be babysat by Bravo 1?
Well, actually, it was
the other way around.
- Tango had the drop on him.
- JASON: Fuck.
DREW: I hit his light-switch
with one 40-yard shot.
OMAR: It's pretty twisted that
it takes more of an emotional toll
to help people than to kill them.
I heard you had a close call.
Close call spun me out
for a minute, I guess.
RAY: You'll shake it off.
- [SCREAMING]
- [GUNSHOTS]
[GASPS]
MANDY: I can't imagine you're eager
to ramp back into battle so fast.
According to Davis, this is
a whole new era of warfare.
Sweden was supposed to be safe, too.
It's not like I'm
going to Fallujah here.
WALCH: Bravo is a bunch
of washed-up renegades.
You haven't earned any
sweat equity with me.
Consider this to be your best
and final chance to do so.
Bravo Team will be
partnering with the DEA
for a joint task force
focused on the fentanyl trade.
This op will allow the
U.S. to strike a blow
against our most
formidable rival: China.
[TRAFFIC PASSING]
CHELSEA [ON PHONE]: Welcome
back to Against the Wall
with Chelsea Wallen.
I'm your host, Chelsea,
and today we continue our
♪
SONNY: Time to shine, boys.
- OMAR: How's the arsenal?
- congressman with - a shadowy past
SONNY: Robust as a Texas turkey buzzard.
And I got me some grenades.
OMAR: Eggs? I thought we were toasting
to Drew's first
successful op with Bravo,
not hazing a pledge.
They're hardboiled. Okay?
And if you want to be
Jason's right-hand man,
then you need to know how to
show the new guy the Bravo way.
- All right.
- [SONNY CLEARS THROAT]
Hello, Drew.
Now that the, uh, first
mission of Bravo is complete,
there's only one thing that remains.
- It's your victory lap.
- [SIGHS SOFTLY]
Prepare to run the Bravo gauntlet.
The op was four days ago.
And we didn't exactly
end the Siege of Carthage.
Yeah, but we did prove that
after months on the sidelines,
Bravo's still worthy
of repping the Trident.
And the only question
that remains: Are you
worthy of Bravo?
You know, proving my Bravo-worthiness
isn't something that
keeps me up at night.
I know the whole, uh,
Blue Falcon is your deal,
I get it,
but the protruding nail
always gets hammered down.
But you are really lost ♪
Yeah.
Mm.
Man. [GROANS]
- JASON: Yep.
- Must've hit every food stall
in Lumphini Park.
You cannot get Khao Kha Mu
with a view in J-Bad, brother.
I'll tell you the biggest
fight in this deployment
might be our waistline. Ooh.
Don't know about you, but I'm happy
to dodge calories instead of bullets.
The shadows definitely has
its perks over the sandbox.
- That's for sure.
- MILES: Gentlemen.
Given the work you'll be
doing in the Golden Triangle,
I have arranged for
you to meet Ross Curtis,
one of the DEA's most reliable
informants in the region.
Ah, Agent Miles, uh, Tier
One units rely on intel
sourced by professionals,
not CIs looking for a buck.
He's worked as a private
security contractor
for some of the biggest
players in the area.
I highly doubt a
disillusioned trafficker
is gonna give us anything of value here.
He's a former Green Beret,
and the intel he's fed us
has led to some of our biggest busts.
I'm asking, not ordering,
but listening to Curtis can't hurt.
- Can he get here today?
- He's coming in at 3:00.
As long as you're asking.
Would've bet my pension
you were gonna tell her
- to shove it.
- Well, you know, given my whole TBI issues,
I'm trying to cut back
on the headbutting, Ray.
[CHUCKLES]
[BEEPS]
[CHUCKLES]
What the hell is this?
New frog's rejecting his Bravo baptism.
- JASON: Oh.
- Come on, Jace,
you got to tell Van Damme that
he's got to do the gauntlet.
Well, you know, I, uh,
graduated Green Team years ago.
I don't need initiating.
Well, if saving us the other
night didn't baptize him,
I don't know what will.
Yeah. Starting to regret that.
Pushing an initiation rite
that doesn't exist, Sonny.
"In order to become a
team on the battlefield
you got to become a team
off the battlefield."
♪
You know who said that?
- Bravo 1.
- [CHUCKLES] You're right.
You're absolutely right, I did say that.
But things change.
New war.
New Bravo.
- That's cute.
- Thanks.
♪
Since when did Bravo
start taking briefings
from a South China Sea Serpico?
OMAR: Serpico got paid by the good guys.
Sounds like this dude fills
his pockets with dirty money.
I mean, mercenaries are shady as hell,
but at least this guy was a Green Beret.
Just another guy to boss
Bravo around with Miles,
ain't that right, Jace?
Listen, you know,
fortune cookie I had for lunch, it said,
"Knowledge is power."
So maybe this guy is gonna
enlighten us, huh, Sonny?
DREW: How do we know this guy's legit
and not some pirate stealing valor?
CURTIS: Fighting at Tora Bora count?
Nobody pretending would
take credit for being
a part of the great escape.
[CHUCKLES]
How many SEALs it take
to change a lightbulb?
- [MURMURING]
- [LAUGHS]
Six. One to change it, five
to write books about it.
- SONNY [CHUCKLES]: Yeah.
- JASON: Joke was about as old
as somebody bragging that
they were at Tora Bora.
[CHUCKLES]
We don't get a lot of Tier
One types in these parts.
What cake-eater did you
piss off to get exiled here?
- All of them.
- Hmm.
My kind of team.
[CHUCKLES SOFTLY]
Let's start with the basics.
Golden Triangle, it's
known for its brutality.
Place is crawling with soldiers,
pirates, traffickers, local militia,
Chinese crime syndicates.
What about, uh, what
about flesh-eating crabs?
- [LAUGHTER]
- CURTIS: Yeah, uh, I mean, if it's lethal, yeah.
You can assume it's here.
Most of the syndicates,
they send their drugs down the Mekong
to fishing vessels
conscripted by the Chinese
to traffic the drugs abroad,
sometimes to the cartels.
But there are some exceptions.
The Myaway, they send yaba
over land into Mizoram.
And the Shu, they funnel
heroin down the Irrawaddy.
And the way you're talking,
it sounds like you're part
of all of their operations.
In a way, I am.
I just pulled security for
the Shu's ships last week.
God, country, and Chinese syndicates
wasn't the oath I took.
- [CHUCKLES]
- RAY: What about the locals?
Do they support the drug traders?
Most of the locals I
know are good people.
Violence and famine forced
them into the drug trade
to feed their family 'cause,
you know, the factories,
they pay cash.
One plant dries up, they
just move on to the next.
What else can I read you in on?
Well, maybe you, uh
could come up with some
restaurant recommendations
- for these two over there.
- [LAUGHS]
I think we're good, thanks. I
appreciate your, uh, insight.
All right.
Well, look, you reach out
if you need anything else.
[DOOR OPENS]
Target package came across my desk.
You want to use Bravo to do
more of the DEA's dirty work?
Intel developed after
tracking phone data
captured in the Spratly Islands
revealed a Sai Lou route from Myanmar.
You sent a Tier One Team into
Chinese-controlled territory,
risking a geopolitical nightmare,
and proved what?
Myanmar is involved in
Chinese drug activity?
A fact we've known for years.
Convince me this new package will yield
something more valuable
than another win for the DEA.
Perhaps you and Admiral
Rivas measure the value
of incremental progress
differently, sir.
You can only play the Admiral Rivas card
so many times, Lieutenant.
If this target package
doesn't produce new intel,
I'd feel it was my duty to ask him
if he chose the right person
to run this pet project.
You'll have results.
♪
[BEEPS]
Look alive, boys.
Oh.
Hey, you got any more washed-up
operators for us to meet?
You know, present company excluded.
Must've caught a target package.
SONNY: Please tell me we're gonna
go hunt some fucking pirates.
Target's a Sai Lou fentanyl
precursor factory in Myanmar.
DEA backtracked geotags
you captured at Heron Reef
and used sat images to ID
a Yi Pharmaceuticals plant
in an industrial district
in the Shan State's Kutkai Township.
JASON: All right, what? So, basically,
you want us to infiltrate
the factory, perform SSE,
- so we could connect Beijing to the Sai Lou.
- MILES: Mm-hmm.
Couldn't a local asset handle this?
I mean, seems a little
below our pay grade.
"Our"?
Ooh, careful there, Drew.
You're starting to sound like you're
maybe part of this team.
JASON: Just because the
nature of the war has changed,
this doesn't make it any
less important, you got it?
And we're gonna do this
with zero footprint.
Actually, you will be
leaving a sizable one.
Ma'am?
After pulling SSE,
you will destroy the plant
to disrupt Sai Lou's
trafficking operations,
using indig explosives to
cover U.S. fingerprints.
Let's go. That's some old-school
teams shit right there.
It's about time.
OMAR: Well, I've been pining
for some War on Terror ops,
but don't we risk killing
everyone in the area
by blowing up a chemical plant?
MILES: The plant produces
N-BOC-4-Piperidone.
Only people in the kill zone
will be inside the plant.
I know SEALs love
admiring their own work,
but I suggest you be long
gone before detonating.
All right, before we
start blowing shit up,
we got to get eyes on the factory.
Well, we're gonna have
some time in Myanmar
to really get to know each other.
[SLURPING]
SONNY: I bet you went to one of
them, uh, snooty boarding schools,
didn't you?
Mm, probably a few,
given the way he goes through teams.
Okay, be straight with us here, Drew.
- [CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKING]
- Okay?
What rich kids sports did you play? Hmm?
You look like a fencer. Or crew?
No, no, no, nope. You know what it is?
The dancing horse thing.
Dressage.
See, Omar?
You owe me money right there, buddy.
- What?
- Okay? Anybody that knows
a fancy sports word like that is rich.
- That doesn't prove shit.
- It does prove shit.
Maybe, maybe he dated an equestrian,
- or is a hippophile.
- A hippo what?
A hippophile.
[CHUCKLES]
I have what appears
to be two armed guards
- approaching the southwest corner.
- [CAMERA CLICKS]
SONNY: Well, I have what
appears to be a fellow frogman
that doesn't want to
bond with his teammates.
Keep telling you, letting the boys in
when I joined Bravo helped
them trust me outside the wire.
Did you guys ever hear
about the, uh, coconut crabs
that ate Amelia Earhart?
Yeah, ten times this watch.
Yeah, when Sonny locks
in on a conspiracy theory,
he's a dog with a bone.
Just be glad he's off Stevie Wonder.
Everyone knows that Stevie can see.
If you promise to shut up,
I will answer one
question about my life.
- Oh!
- All right.
Okay, well, what question do I ask here?
Should it be about the yacht scandal?
The pickle fortune?
Mmm, no, no.
The senator.
Yes, the senator. Is your daddy
Senator Franklin from West Virginia?
No, you mean from Delaware.
- Oh, no way.
- [LAUGHS]
That's your daddy. Mm, mm,
- mm, mm, mm
- No.
What?
[LAUGHS]
Fuck you. That wasn't even funny.
I, uh, slow-rolled
a lot of poker hands,
but, you know, that
may be my best work yet.
- Fuck you, man.
- Yeah.
[INDISTINCT CHATTER]
There we go.
Looks like we got two
guards with a pistol
coming around the east corner.
Yeah.
We should see them again in four mikes.
Then another four mikes,
and another four mikes.
Figured an old-school op
would have you giddy, brother.
You know, enthusiasm
leads to mistakes, Ray.
Then this truck is the
epicenter of perfection.
What's up with you, man?
I mean, yesterday you were singing
this deployment's praises,
now you're deep in your feels.
How's Spenser House?
Well-funded, thanks to a, uh,
massive check that just got stroked.
- Yeah?
- Yeah.
Congratulations.
Eh, it's nothing I did.
I actually scared away
a deep-pocketed donor.
Naima cleaned up my mess.
Something throw you off?
Just rust.
Yeah, well, you better
shake that rust off, because, you know,
Spenser House is gonna be
your all in, all the time
real soon, brother.
Real soon.
SONNY: You know that them
flesh-eating coconut crabs,
they are considered to be
the sharks of the crustacean world.
They can grow up to two and a half feet.
[CHUCKLES] You know, you are giving me
a shellfish allergy with
all this crab talk, Sonny.
Yeah, I'm sorry, man. I-I
I'm just running out of material, man,
I'm sitting on my ass
for the last two days.
How's, uh, how's Leanne?
She's great. She's up and walking.
Right into the arms of
Hannah's new fiancé.
Hannah's engaged?
Yep.
I'm sorry, brother. That's rough.
Yeah, I'm just the back-up
daddy to my own daughter.
Even more so now that Bravo is my past,
present and future. You know?
Could really use your help getting Drew
to understand the Bravo way.
My main focus right now is making sure
Jason doesn't miss a beat
with Bravo when I'm gone, okay?
Miss a beat?
We just stood up to
Command to save a job
that he's acting like
he doesn't want anymore.
Bravo may have some
question marks, brother,
but Jason Hayes will
never be one of them, okay?
Plant operates 24/7.
About 50 locals run the day shift
And, uh, 25 come in
and take over at night.
Ten armed guards per shift.
Half inside, half patrol the exterior.
With fewer workers and
the cover of darkness,
a night op gives us a greater
chance of going undetected.
SONNY: Well, you don't got to sell me
on things that go boom in the night.
RAY: So, uh, we split into two groups.
One for SSE, one for demo.
Sound good, boss?
Mm. Op's no good.
I'm canking it.
You're canking a perfectly good op?
After I spent hours stuck
in a truck with these bozos?
How's this any different from
the power grid we hit in Indonesia?
In order to crack this nut,
it'd be nice to know
your issues, boss dog.
It's no good. Too many
eyes, too many guns.
You know, the last time I checked,
Bravo will run into the fire,
and not away from it.
- We're not running from anything.
- SONNY: Mm.
If Bravo 1 says we need a better plan,
we give him a better plan.
Airtight. Minimum risk and exposure.
[DOOR CLOSES]
What the fuck was that, man?
The team leader looking after his team.
Bullshit. We've all run ops
with way more red flags than this.
That sure isn't the almighty
Jason Hayes I've heard about.
RAY: The man's evolved.
No, the man's spooked.
No way.
I've never seen Jace scared of anything.
Well, you weren't there in Sweden.
That shitbag
had Hayes dead to rights
before I popped him.
It's not the first time
he's been in the crosshairs.
We've all heard of snake-eaters
who suddenly lose their nerve.
Once it's gone, they're
fucking finished.
Is that what happened to you?
The reason why you've been dodging teams
like the plague?
TRENT: Look, my money says
Jason's being overprotective of us.
Why's that?
Uh, Clay.
Spenser wasn't killed on Hayes' watch.
It was a freak accident.
Fallen brother's always
gonna haunt Bravo 1.
Probably why he has his hands
off the wheel more than usual
and is letting Miles run things.
I don't know, man.
Jason's
It's just he's working
on himself, his guilt.
Seems more at peace
with his past than ever.
So he's he's gun-shy
because he's happy?
This close to my retirement
[SIGHS] he may be
doing everything he can
to make sure I get there.
He did the same thing when RJ was born.
DREW: Whatever his issues,
how do we plan a mission
he doesn't want to run?
[SIGHS]
[BEEPS]
Master Chief,
Lieutenant Davis wants you on VTC.
Should I link her to the briefing room?
I'll take it in my room.
Hey, you're working late.
DAVIS: I wanted to touch
base on that factory hit
before heading home.
You got a plan in place?
The, uh, the op may not be achievable.
Miles didn't mention any complications.
Miles doesn't have tactical control.
It's a straightforward hit.
Don't overcomplicate it.
Okay, how could we overcomplicate
fifth generational warfare with China?
So your concerns are political?
No, my concerns are my concerns.
Therefore, we may have to, uh,
point the spear in a
different direction.
I got enough people sandbagging me
from inside of Command.
How many times have you
pressured me to find intel
to support a target
that you wanted to hit?
It is time to reciprocate.
I'm sorry, but our operational
priorities aren't aligned.
All right, look, what
if we douse the computers
that run the precursor mixing program
with hydrochloric acid?
No, no, it-it That
decreases our visibility,
but it doesn't take the factory offline.
What if we pull the fire alarm?
Clear the plant out before we blow it?
SONNY: Yeah, got me out of
a test or two back when I was
in school. That's good thinking.
Whoa, whoa. We don't even know
if they have safety standards,
let alone a working fire alarm.
Well, it's hard to hit a bull's-eye
when the team leader
can't see the target.
Something you're trying to say?
Nothing he hasn't said himself.
That TBIs influence behavior.
They make people impulsive, aggressive.
So does hanging out with you.
Look, you got to be part of this team
before you question its leader.
Look, Jason's head is a non-factor.
He's working that problem.
I'm just saying, it may explain why
he hasn't lived up to his reputation.
I mean, come on, Sonny.
You know something's off.
I mean, you've been talking
shit to Jason since
All right, guys, let's cool down.
Keep working the problem.
[BEEPING, CHIMING]
RAY: Wow.
Playing Guitar Hero while
the team has a cage match?
[CHUCKLING]: Right.
I had my own with Davis.
Look, brother, I'd never question you
in front of the fellas,
but, uh, in all my
years of being with you,
I've never seen you
cank anything like this.
55 out of 60. [LAUGHS]
Look, Jace, if your TBI symptoms have
I'm good, I'm solid.
So, uh, how are the boys with the op?
- Banging their heads against the wall, and each other.
- Yeah.
Could probably use their
team leader for inspiration.
All right.
All right, first, we sabotage
the factory's computers
using HCl.
SONNY: Then we execute
a surgical demo strike
on the loading dock right here.
OMAR: That stops the Sai Lou
from distributing precursor
and receiving replacement equipment.
Nearly zero footprint. Boom.
Come on, guys, that only shuts
down the factory for a few months.
DEA wants a permanent fix, boys.
We could throw smoke
grenades in the vents
to clear out the workers.
Omar came up with that
idea hours ago, man.
Yeah, plus we still don't know enough
about the ventilation system.
The payroll truck arrives
twice a week during shift change.
Thought we could hit the
plant while the workers are
outside getting paid.
That's an awfully tight window.
RAY: Gives us enough time to pull SSE,
but setting up charges
for a blast that size
is gonna take a minute.
Especially since we don't know
what kind of support structure
we're fixing to knock down.
You know, Curtis says
the locals aren't gonna work for free.
What if this payroll
truck doesn't make it?
What if it doesn't show up?
The workers might walk off the job,
leaving the factory empty.
Looks like Bravo's gonna
rob a money truck, boys.
Look, so you cank our
op, but authorize a crime?
I'll take two rent-a-cops
over ten armed guards
and a crowded factory.
Interesting judgment call.
Yeah. A call that means
that we have to execute
two ops instead of one now.
Y'all need to stop your yammering, okay?
'Cause this is the Bravo
1 I've been missing,
dialing up some
Marcinko-era renegade shit.
No payday means we'll be
hitting an empty target.
Minimizes risk.
Hitting an armored
vehicle in broad daylight
minimizes nothing.
It's unorthodox, but
we all got to DEVGRU
by thinking outside the box.
Just proves the Navy trained us
to be heroes or criminals.
All right, look, I got no issue
stealing from drug traffickers.
But how are the workers
gonna feed their families?
Would you rather they lose
their paycheck or their lives?
Guys, it's a victimless crime.
I mean, we're heroes for a good cause.
I'd hate to steal Omar's role
as the team's cold shower,
but we're already on
Command's shit list.
I mean, if this Ocean's 11
hit gets back to Vah Beach
Yeah, some job we have when, uh,
stealing's more of an offense
than slaughtering a workforce.
That's why we're gonna
roll with indig gear.
I don't think we packed for that.
You know, fuck it, I
know someone who's got
some shady connections around here.
CURTIS: So I'm guarding
this fishing boat,
like, miles out. Not a soul in sight.
- Dead fuckin' calm, until
- [BANGS TABLE LOUDLY]
[LAUGHS]
And then it's just screeching.
We hear screeching,
we hear boxes crashing.
I look over at the local guards.
They're spooked. They
run down to the galley.
They think there's, uh,
like, an evil spirit on board.
I go searching, and it's a mess.
There's There's bags
of heroin everywhere.
And then I see the intruders:
Two fuckin' monkeys.
[LAUGHTER]
They jumped on ship.
It was the longest sail of my life.
You sure do, uh, pick
colorful clients, brother.
You work for drug dealers,
and that monkey story's
the best you got?
I gotta keep it PG
for the Navy's finest.
And just to be clear,
not all my clients are criminals.
Yet they undermine
American interests, right?
[CHUCKLES]
The world looks a lot different
when you stop drinking
the Pentagon's Kool-Aid.
You can't eat honor, fellas.
Well, I'm hoping we
can use some of those
underworld connections of yours.
We need indig vehicles and
weapons in the Shan State.
Uh, no questions asked.
Think a non-Kool-Aid
drinker can handle that?
Yeah. Yeah, everything except
the "no questions" part.
Who's fucking shady now, huh?
[LAUGHTER]
Based on payroll drops
of the past two months,
we know the armored
truck's route to the plant,
and the rate of speed that
it's gonna be traveling.
Truck rolls with two armed guards.
They're rent-a-cops,
so not real shooters.
Yeah? Tell that to the
bullets flying at us
if we get in a gunfight.
No, there aren't gonna
be any shots fired.
Not between us, not between the guards.
We're gonna him 'em with
speed and surprise. Understood?
Yeah.
We're gonna run three teams:
Base, maneuver and follow car.
Sonny, Drew, you set the shape charge
along the truck's route.
Then you're gonna get in position
as the base element
for an L-shaped ambush.
[GRUNTS]
All right.
SONNY: 1, longhorn's in the corral.
JASON [OVER COMMS]: Good copy, 3.
Omar and Trent will be with Jason
in an overwatch position,
ready to be the maneuver element
once the truck lands on the X
and Sonny incapacitates it
by clacking off the charge.
Road is clear. Mako,
how far out's our bird?
OMAR: Ray and Brock
are in the follow car
tracking the truck's
route to the factory.
Dirty bird's two mikes out.
After the charge disables the vehicle,
we wrap up the guards, take the cash,
head to target.
JASON: And once we get confirmation
that the workers are out of there
we run an SSE and set the charges.
RAY [OVER COMMS]: Bird
is one mike out. One.
Who's this dickhead?
[INDISTINCT CHATTER FROM PICKUP TRUCK]
O.P. 1, a pickup is
turning onto the road.
Headed your way.
What the fuck is that?
What the fuck is that?
Hey, uh, truck's all over the road, 3.
SONNY: You're fucking kidding me.
If that truck goes over the charge,
this op is tits up.
[MUSIC BLARING FROM TRUCK RADIO]
Oh! Damn it.
1, bogey ran over the corral.
Not sure what condition it's in.
We're about to find
out. Bird's closing in.
Get down. Fire in the hole!
No.
SONNY [OVER COMMS]:
Bevo's been dehorned.
This op is fucked.
Road warrior damaged the
charge when he clipped it.
RFD must've come loose
from the blasting cap.
We can repair it and
still stop the truck.
Ah. Don't have time
to set another ambush.
Besides, they could have made
us and be alerting the Sai Lou's
death squad right now.
All right. Mako, the
driver change course?
MAKO: Negative, 1.
Driver's maintaining speed
and the route.
Turning onto the hardball road now.
All right, look, we've still
got the element of surprise.
Taking another run at a
moving, bulletproof target
in broad daylight exposes
us to more eyes, more risk.
The factory op doesn't
work unless the heist does.
SONNY: We can probably do it
on the next payroll delivery.
We go home emptyhanded,
Agent Miles and Command
will have questions.
All Bravo elements, we're running a VI.
Let's move.
RAY: Say again, 1?
JASON: We're doing a
vehicle interdiction.
[VEHICLE STARTS]
♪
RFD reconnected. Good to go.
Good with your hands. There

Bravo Team successfully
executed a target package
in Myanmar that not only destroyed
a Sai Lou fentanyl precursor factory,
but also, and more importantly,
recovered vital intel.
The plant is run as a shell company,
but we now know that it is controlled
by Jun Yilin, a Chinese national.
Documents pulled off the target
connect Jun to some of the
deadliest cartel in Mexico.
And further research by my team revealed
deep ties between Jun and Beijing.
So, you can now tie Beijing
to a major fentanyl precursor supplier?
It appears we're one
incremental step closer.
Future target packages
will lay the groundwork
to expose China's support
of fentanyl trafficking,
outing their shittiness
to their neighbors
and forcing a realignment
of alliances in the region.
Good work, Lieutenant.
You can count on our

You know, I don't need any

Considering I don't
have to worry about you
actually telling anyone, I'll confess.
Closer I get to the finish line,
harder walking away seems.
And it's not because I'm gonna
miss the action or the impact.
It's because of the brotherhood.
You're only hurting yourself

All your lip-flapping

Could I get a shot of whiskey?
Yeah, but did you have to

Technically, we were throwing away kyat.
Uh, technically, it was our beer money.
SONNY: We used to play,
uh, Butch and Sundance

give our money back.
Okay? It kind of takes the

Chinese crime syndicates.
What about, uh, what
about flesh-eating crabs?

You can assume it's here.
Most of the syndicates,
they send their drugs down the Mekong
to fishing vessels
conscripted by the Chinese
to traffic the drugs abroad,
sometimes to the cartels.
But there are some exceptions.
The Myaway, they send yaba
over land into Mizoram.
And the Shu, they funnel
heroin down the Irrawaddy.
And the way you're talking,
it sounds like you're part
of all of their operations.
In a way, I am.

wasn't the oath I took.

Do they support the drug traders?
Most of the locals I
know are good people.

they pay cash.
One plant dries up, they
just move on to the next.

Perhaps you and Admiral
Rivas measure the value

differently, sir.

About 50 locals run the day shift
And, uh, 25 come in

Ten armed guards per shift.
Half inside, half patrol the exterior.

It was a freak accident.
Fallen brother's always
gonna haunt Bravo 1.
Probably why he has his hands
off the wheel more than usual
and is letting Miles run things.
I don't know, man.
Jason's
It's just he's working
on himself, his guilt.
Seems more at peace
with his past than ever.
So he's he's gun-shy
because he's happy?
This close to my retirement
[SIGHS] he may be
doing everything he can
to make sure I get there.
He did the same thing when RJ was born.
DREW: Whatever his issues,
how do we plan a mission
he doesn't want to run?
[SIGHS]
[BEEPS]
Master Chief,
Lieutenant Davis wants you on VTC.
Should I link her to the briefing room?
I'll take it in my room.
Hey, you're working late.
DAVIS: I wanted to touch
base on that factory hit
before heading home.
You got a plan in place?
The, uh, the op may not be achievable.
Miles didn't mention any complications.
Miles doesn't have tactical control.
It's a straightforward hit.
Don't overcomplicate it.
Okay, how could we overcomplicate
fifth generational warfare with China?
So your concerns are political?
No, my concerns are my concerns.
Therefore, we may have to, uh,
point the spear in a
different direction.
I got enough people sandbagging me
from inside of Command.
How many times have you
pressured me to find intel
to support a target
that you wanted to hit?
It is time to reciprocate.
I'm sorry, but our operational
priorities aren't aligned.
All right, look, what
if we douse the computers
that run the precursor mixing program
with hydrochloric acid?
No, no, it-it That
decreases our visibility,
but it doesn't take the factory offline.
What if we pull the fire alarm?
Clear the plant out before we blow it?
SONNY: Yeah, got me out of
a test or two back when I was
in school. That's good thinking.
Whoa, whoa. We don't even know
if they have safety standards,
let alone a working fire alarm.
Well, it's hard to hit a bull's-eye
when the team leader
can't see the target.
Something you're trying to say?
Nothing he hasn't said himself.
That TBIs influence behavior.
They make people impulsive, aggressive.
So does hanging out with you.
Look, you got to be part of this team
before you question its leader.
Look, Jason's head is a non-factor.
He's working that problem.
I'm just saying, it may explain why
he hasn't lived up to his reputation.
I mean, come on, Sonny.
You know something's off.
I mean, you've been talking
shit to Jason since
All right, guys, let's cool down.
Keep working the problem.
[BEEPING, CHIMING]
RAY: Wow.
Playing Guitar Hero while
the team has a cage match?
[CHUCKLING]: Right.
I had my own with Davis.
Look, brother, I'd never question you
in front of the fellas,
but, uh, in all my
years of being with you,
I've never seen you
cank anything like this.
55 out of 60. [LAUGHS]
Look, Jace, if your TBI symptoms have
I'm good, I'm solid.
So, uh, how are the boys with the op?
- Banging their heads against the wall, and each other.
- Yeah.
Could probably use their
team leader for inspiration.
All right.
All right, first, we sabotage
the factory's computers
using HCl.
SONNY: Then we execute
a surgical demo strike
on the loading dock right here.
OMAR: That stops the Sai Lou
from distributing precursor
and receiving replacement equipment.
Nearly zero footprint. Boom.
Come on, guys, that only shuts
down the factory for a few months.
DEA wants a permanent fix, boys.
We could throw smoke
grenades in the vents
to clear out the workers.
Omar came up with that
idea hours ago, man.
Yeah, plus we still don't know enough
about the ventilation system.
The payroll truck arrives
twice a week during shift change.
Thought we could hit the
plant while the workers are
outside getting paid.
That's an awfully tight window.
RAY: Gives us enough time to pull SSE,
but setting up charges
for a blast that size
is gonna take a minute.
Especially since we don't know
what kind of support structure
we're fixing to knock down.
You know, Curtis says
the locals aren't gonna work for free.
What if this payroll
truck doesn't make it?
What if it doesn't show up?
The workers might walk off the job,
leaving the factory empty.
Looks like Bravo's gonna
rob a money truck, boys.
Look, so you cank our
op, but authorize a crime?
I'll take two rent-a-cops
over ten armed guards
and a crowded factory.
Interesting judgment call.
Yeah. A call that means
that we have to execute
two ops instead of one now.
Y'all need to stop your yammering, okay?
'Cause this is the Bravo
1 I've been missing,
dialing up some
Marcinko-era renegade shit.
No payday means we'll be
hitting an empty target.
Minimizes risk.
Hitting an armored
vehicle in broad daylight
minimizes nothing.
It's unorthodox, but
we all got to DEVGRU
by thinking outside the box.
Just proves the Navy trained us
to be heroes or criminals.
All right, look, I got no issue
stealing from drug traffickers.
But how are the workers
gonna feed their families?
Would you rather they lose
their paycheck or their lives?
Guys, it's a victimless crime.
I mean, we're heroes for a good cause.
I'd hate to steal Omar's role
as the team's cold shower,
but we're already on
Command's shit list.
I mean, if this Ocean's 11
hit gets back to Vah Beach
Yeah, some job we have when, uh,
stealing's more of an offense
than slaughtering a workforce.
That's why we're gonna
roll with indig gear.
I don't think we packed for that.
You know, fuck it, I
know someone who's got
some shady connections around here.
CURTIS: So I'm guarding
this fishing boat,
like, miles out. Not a soul in sight.
- Dead fuckin' calm, until
- [BANGS TABLE LOUDLY]
[LAUGHS]
And then it's just screeching.
We hear screeching,
we hear boxes crashing.
I look over at the local guards.
They're spooked. They
run down to the galley.
They think there's, uh,
like, an evil spirit on board.
I go searching, and it's a mess.
There's There's bags
of heroin everywhere.
And then I see the intruders:
Two fuckin' monkeys.
[LAUGHTER]
They jumped on ship.
It was the longest sail of my life.
You sure do, uh, pick
colorful clients, brother.
You work for drug dealers,
and that monkey story's
the best you got?
I gotta keep it PG
for the Navy's finest.
And just to be clear,
not all my clients are criminals.
Yet they undermine
American interests, right?
[CHUCKLES]
The world looks a lot different
when you stop drinking
the Pentagon's Kool-Aid.
You can't eat honor, fellas.
Well, I'm hoping we
can use some of those
underworld connections of yours.
We need indig vehicles and
weapons in the Shan State.
Uh, no questions asked.
Think a non-Kool-Aid
drinker can handle that?
Yeah. Yeah, everything except
the "no questions" part.
Who's fucking shady now, huh?
[LAUGHTER]
Based on payroll drops
of the past two months,
we know the armored
truck's route to the plant,
and the rate of speed that
it's gonna be traveling.
Truck rolls with two armed guards.
They're rent-a-cops,
so not real shooters.
Yeah? Tell that to the
bullets flying at us
if we get in a gunfight.
No, there aren't gonna
be any shots fired.
Not between us, not between the guards.
We're gonna him 'em with
speed and surprise. Understood?
Yeah.
We're gonna run three teams:
Base, maneuver and follow car.
Sonny, Drew, you set the shape charge
along the truck's route.
Then you're gonna get in position
as the base element
for an L-shaped ambush.
[GRUNTS]
All right.
SONNY: 1, longhorn's in the corral.
JASON [OVER COMMS]: Good copy, 3.
Omar and Trent will be with Jason
in an overwatch position,
ready to be the maneuver element
once the truck lands on the X
and Sonny incapacitates it
by clacking off the charge.
Road is clear. Mako,
how far out's our bird?
OMAR: Ray and Brock
are in the follow car
tracking the truck's
route to the factory.
Dirty bird's two mikes out.
After the charge disables the vehicle,
we wrap up the guards, take the cash,
head to target.
JASON: And once we get confirmation
that the workers are out of there
we run an SSE and set the charges.
RAY [OVER COMMS]: Bird
is one mike out. One.
Who's this dickhead?
[INDISTINCT CHATTER FROM PICKUP TRUCK]
O.P. 1, a pickup is
turning onto the road.
Headed your way.
What the fuck is that?
What the fuck is that?
Hey, uh, truck's all over the road, 3.
SONNY: You're fucking kidding me.
If that truck goes over the charge,
this op is tits up.
[MUSIC BLARING FROM TRUCK RADIO]
Oh! Damn it.
1, bogey ran over the corral.
Not sure what condition it's in.
We're about to find
out. Bird's closing in.
Get down. Fire in the hole!
No.
SONNY [OVER COMMS]:
Bevo's been dehorned.
This op is fucked.
Road warrior damaged the
charge when he clipped it.
RFD must've come loose
from the blasting cap.
We can repair it and
still stop the truck.
Ah. Don't have time
to set another ambush.
Besides, they could have made
us and be alerting the Sai Lou's
death squad right now.
All right. Mako, the
driver change course?
MAKO: Negative, 1.
Driver's maintaining speed
and the route.
Turning onto the hardball road now.
All right, look, we've still
got the element of surprise.
Taking another run at a
moving, bulletproof target
in broad daylight exposes
us to more eyes, more risk.
The factory op doesn't
work unless the heist does.
SONNY: We can probably do it
on the next payroll delivery.
We go home emptyhanded,
Agent Miles and Command
will have questions.
All Bravo elements, we're running a VI.
Let's move.

Fire in the hole.
[EXPLOSION]
Bravo Team successfully
executed a target package
in Myanmar that not only destroyed
a Sai Lou fentanyl precursor factory,
but also, and more importantly,
recovered vital intel.
The plant is run as a shell company,
but we now know that it is controlled
by Jun Yilin, a Chinese national.
Documents pulled off the target
connect Jun to some of the
deadliest cartel in Mexico.
And further research by my team revealed
deep ties between Jun and Beijing.
So, you can now tie Beijing
to a major fentanyl precursor supplier?
It appears we're one
incremental step closer.
Future target packages
will lay the groundwork
to expose China's support
of fentanyl trafficking,
outing their shittiness
to their neighbors
and forcing a realignment
of alliances in the region.
Good work, Lieutenant.
You can count on our
support for those packages.

Did Sonny send you to dig up dirt?
Nah.
Nah, this is a solo

I told you, I don't need guardrailing.
Having each other's backs
is what teammates do,
in case you forgot.
There's a shiny Wurmple nearby
I need for my collection,
- if you don't mind.
- [CHUCKLES]
You know, rolling with
you these past two missions
is a very good reminder
of how little actual time
you've spent downrange.
You know, I don't need any
rah-rah speeches from the guy
choosing not to go downrange ever again.
Considering I don't
have to worry about you
actually telling anyone, I'll confess.
Closer I get to the finish line,
harder walking away seems.
And it's not because I'm gonna
miss the action or the impact.
It's because of the brotherhood.
You're only hurting yourself
by being more of a frogman
than a team guy, Drew.
All your lip-flapping
is making me thirsty.
Could I get a shot of whiskey?
Yeah, but did you have to
throw away every last dollar?
Technically, we were throwing away kyat.
Uh, technically, it was our beer money.
SONNY: We used to play,
uh, Butch and Sundance
when, uh, we were kids
at my daddy's ranch,
and never once did we
give our money back.
Okay? It kind of takes the
spirit away from the heist.
All right, look, factory got destroyed,
workers got paid. Win-win.
Got to watch it with this whole
"workers of the world"
bullshit there, Karl O-Marx.

That's some personal growth.
Yeah, and, hopefully,
some financial. Yeah.

Private sector's the way to go.

New era of warfare, Ray,
