5.

He’s pressing down hard. Choking the man. The man’s familybegs and screams. Shah studies the Afghan deep into his eyes.

Decides he’s lying...Shah nods to Taraq.

Taraq yanks the Afghan to his feet. As his children watch

Taraq leads the pleading farmer outside. Into the woods.

Taraq and his men throw the Afghan down over a fallen log.

Face up.

Two of Taraq’s men hold him by the beard as Taraq stands over

him. Razor sharp machete up.

Shah backlit. Ignoring the man’s pleading...as Taraq hacks

down with brutal fury.

Tight on Shah, tight on Taraq, blood dripping from his hand.

EXT. BAGRAM AIR BASE - DAWN 8

Sun just beginning to rise over the Base.

Beautiful.

Camera moves though the sleeping base. Guards man posts.

Aircraft static on runways in Hangars’. Tent after tent

soldiers’ sleep.

We come to a small base within a base. 10 foot rebar framed

dirt walls. Barbed wire. Heavy Iron gate.

A fortress within a fortress.

Graphic.

Rooms a mess. Clothes and gear everywhere. Grenades on a desk

next to a copy of GATES OF FIRE. New York Rangers flag next

to a SEAL Flag, 8 x 10 head shot of Ron Burgundy.

Tight on Murphy. His eyes slowly open. Hold a moment. Murphy

checks watch. 0500. Slow and smooth Murphy rises. Body

strong. Not ripped. Effortless power.

Murphy goes to his computer. Opens it and checks his mail.

Tight on Murphy’s inbox.

A picture of an Arabian Horse. Murphy studies the picture.

Murphy now in shorts and a Navy T-shirt. Holding his laptop,

eating a banana. Stops by Luttrell’s door. Opens it.
