Synopsis: Jean Claude plays an official who's just been appointed as Second In Command to the U.S.Ambassador at an American Embassy in a small, turbulent Eastern European nation. When local insurgents attempt a coup d'etat, the nation's President takes refuge inside the embassy. The embassy is then besieged by the well-armed insurgents. The U.S. Ambassador is killed in the ensuing action, and it's now up to Jean-Claude and the embassy's small detachment of U.S. Marines to fend off the attackers.

Baldwin, cover us when we come out.

Copy, Sam, we're right behind you.

We've got movement.

With just a handful of guards

protecting the palace...

and his most loyal generals

many hours away...

the feeling in the insurgents

is one of "now or never."

God, Sam!

Keep your head down, sir.

Let's get out of here.

Yeah, we're out of here.

Tavarov.

Cover the US Embassy.

This is Tiger One, we got your back here.

Let's roll back to the Embassy, sir.

Copy that. Hang back and cover our flank.

- Gunny, we're coming in. Cover us.

- Roger, Sam. Ready to deploy.

Watch it, we're cut off.

I got the rear, Sam.

Hold on, sir, I'll get you out.

Brace yourself.

I got it, go!

Move out, cover the street!

Pazzini, cover me!

- Take him out!

- I've got it, go!

Get up on the wall.

Coming in from the left.

Coming around, move!

- Mr. President, are you okay?

- I'm fine.

Okay, come on.

Sir, we'll have to make a run for it, okay?

Grenade, give me your grenade!

Go, get the hell out of here.

Only shoot on my orders!

Follow me. Go, go! Cover!

Fire! Fire!

Get those goddamn gates open!

Over here!

Incoming fire! Get down!

Close the gates!

They're pulling back.

Welcome to the USA, Mr. President.

Thank you. I am in your debt.

Sir, the Ambassador is waiting inside.

Sir.

Corporal Zanger just radioed in.

He and Pazzini are still out there.

I'll assemble a reaction team

and bring them both in.

Negative, Gunny.

The city is crawling with militia

heading in our direction.

I need all available men right now.

Zanger and Pazzini are two of my best.

I'm sure they are, and they're marines.

- I'm counting on them out there.

- Yes, sir.

Jones, left flank, Red, right flank!

Move!

Hold your position.

Attention, please, all civilian evacuees...

please assemble in the lobby

for a security briefing.

- Here you go.

- Hi.

- Don't worry about me, I'll be fine.

- Are you sure?

Hell of a time for a tour group.

They're US nationals who work in the city.

We bussed them in for their own safety.

We need to get control of our defenses.

Is there a map of this place?

Yeah, the Marine Unit

is down the hall and to the left.

ACR is in the basement through Comms.

Come with me,

I'll show you the Embassy plans.

Would evacuees please remain in the lobby

and await further instructions.

They re-grouped

at the top of the street, Gunny.

Enough ammo to hold off

a troop of girl scouts.

Yeah, and the only anti-personnel weapon

we've got is bad breath.

I've spotted an RPG.

I'll give the Ambassador the great news.

Now, we do this the hard way.

We don't have much time.

Let us know immediately

if there's any change in your plans.

- Incoming!

- Get down!
