First Blood Page #4

I talked to Mitch.

Galt and the others

must haVe treated the guy rough.

A**holes!

That doesn't change anything,

DaVe, and you know it!

If one of the deputy sheriffs

goes too far, the prisoner comes to me!

If he's right

I kick the deputy sheriff's ass!

I'm the law!

And that's how it should be.

If you trample on the law,

there's hell to pay!

Why does God create a man like Rambo?

- God didn't create Rambo,

It was me.

Who are you?

Sam Trautman. Colonel Samuel Trautman.

We haVe a lot to do. What do you want?

I'm here because of my boy.

- Your boy?

I recruited him, trained him and

commanded him for 3 years in Vietnam.

He belongs to me.

Why does the Pentagon send

a colonel to sort things out?

The army thought I could help.

I don't know how. Rambo is

a ciVilian now, so he's my problem.

You don't understand. I'm not here

to saVe Rambo from you,

But you from him.

Thanks for your concern, Colonel.

We'll take real care.

Amazing that some men survived!

Oh really?

Strictly speaking, he failed.

You were lucky!

Great! So you're just here to see

why your machine broke down?

You're dealing with an expert

in guerilla warfare.

He's the best with a gun, a knife

and his bare hands.

He was trained to ignore

pain and the weather,

and to eat things

a goat would puke up.

In Vietnam his job was to get rid of

enemy personnel, to kill them.

Winning by attrition.

And Rambo was the best!

Now we're afraid, what do you

and the special forces suggest

We do with the psychopath?

- Let him go.

What?

- First for now.

Defuse the situation, defuse him.

Let him get away.

You'll soon find him in Seattle,

working in a car wash.

That way no-one gets hurt.

I'll do my job myself, instead of

praying they catch him in Seattle!

Your people are gonna get killed!

We hillbillies do our duty same as

the heroes in the special forces.

We teach them to stay aliVe!

- I never thought of that!

Do you want a war that you lose?

- With 200 men against one?

If you're sending out so many people

get in enough body-bags!

You just want to save your own ass,

but whatever side you're on,

If you really want to get rid of Rambo,

then follow me.

State police to John Rambo.

Acknowledge.

State police to John Rambo.

Come in please. Acknowledge!

If you're listening, Rambo, this is

your situation:
You're surrounded,

Every escape route is blocked, all the

highways, street and fire breaks.

Your services to your country

will be taken into consideration.

Answer me, it can all be sorted out.

Please come in. - Anything?

He took a radio.

- He's sure to be listening.

I would try to pick up something.

- Sure he's listening!
