JORDAN:
North Korean beaches are the best
protected, most heavily monitored in
the world. The civilian population
is so propagandized that it acts as
an Early Warning system. Extraction
team has to be small and silent --
I'd go with Seals over Delta Force.
Problem is, don't want to hold a
conventional sub off-shore for
target practice. Where's The Polk?
INTERCUTTING:
ROYCE:
Halfway 'round the world. So that's
the problem -- we can get the team
in, just not out.
JORDAN:
(an inspired beat)
Unless you Whiskey Run.
ROYCE:
Blank faces here, O'Neil.
JORDAN:
Quick-hit technique used by Capone.
Rigged a getaway car with running
boards and handles. All his guys
had to do was jump on and take a
ride. Check the files -- DPRK-57 --
I doped it out as a contingency
plan:
Seal Team infiltrates, picksup the package, links up with
recovery sub. But don't waste time
opening and closing hatches. They
just grab the periscope and hang on
for neutral waters.
A dubious beat.
ROYCE:
You expect the extraction team to
ride the sub bare-back? Is that
correct, O'Neil?
JORDAN:
Only four minutes to neutral waters,
sir. Why not?
Silence on the radio: They're discussing her scenario
privately. During, Jordan's kayak reaches the junction of
the Potomac and the Anacostia rivers. On the far bank
lies...
Naval Intel Center (N.I.C.), bristling with communication
antennae.
Jordan stares at the complex, waiting for a response.
ROYCE:
All right, sending the
recommendation across the river.
Royce out.
The phone goes dead.
JORDAN:
No, thank you, sir.
EXT. SECURITY STATION - N.I.C. - DAY
Bundled in topcoat and scarves, military and civilian
employees transit a security station on their way inside.
Presently Jordan appears -- wearing a wetsuit and
balancing a collapsed kayak on her head. She flashes a
photo-badge and double-times inside.
INT. CORRIDOR - N.I.C. - DAY
Jordan exits a locker room. Smoothing out her Khaki
uniform, she heads down a broad corridor with cipher-lock
doors. Falling in step:
ROYCE:
That was good headwork, lieutenant.
JORDAN:
Thank you, sir. We hear back from
the Pentagon?
ROYCE:
(scoffing)
Probably hear back from CNN first.
JORDAN:
Hate this part. Just sweating it
out on the sidelines.
ROYCE:
Intel has its own glory, lieutenant
-- no matter how subtle.
Now they reach...
INT. BULLPEN - N.I.C. - DAY
A circular chamber. Dominating the ground floor is the
bullpen, a hive of cubicles an computer stations. On the
second floor are executive offices, ringing the bullpen.
ROYCE:
By the way, I'll need that option
paper by 11-hundred today so I can
review it with Admiral Hanover. And
do we have any of that breakfast tea
around here?
