- OK.

- It's gonna be OK.

- All right.

- It's gonna be fine.

Try to keep this as long

as you can for a while, yeah?

Anything else, Commander?

Yeah. I'd like to be able to look into

your eyes when our first child is born.

You know I'll do my best.

I love you, baby.

Love you.

War is a country of will.

There's no room for sympathy.

If you're not willing to give up

everything, you've already lost.

Tell me, what is it

about you Americans that makes...

you feel entitled to f***

with the way I make my living?

I know who you are, Miss Morales,

and I know who you work for.

So why don't you

save us both some time

and tell me exactly

what you think you know?

How did that feel,

Miss Morales?

Have a great day at the spa.

Si, jefe.

- Hey, fellas, what's up?

- Hey.

It's hotter than two rats screwing

in a wool sock out there, yeah?

Africa-hot...

Tarzan couldn't take this heat.

Anyway, here's the deal.

Time to get your frogman on.

Lights. Three days ago,

two CIA agents, a Walter Ross

and a Miss Lisa Morales,

were ambushed inside their

hotel room here in Costa Rica

by a unknown amount

of heavily armed a**holes.

Unfortunately, Mr. Ross was murdered,

and Miss Morales has been abducted.

We believe that this has been the work

of a guy named Mikhail Troykavitch,

aka Christo.

LT's going to give you

the skinny on him.

Thanks, Senior.

Mikhail Troykavitch, aka Christo.

This guy is believed to have been

working cocaine-for-weapons deals

between the Russian mafia, the FARC

guerrillas, and the Mexican drug cartels

ever since the late 1990s.

Now, before she was captured,

Morales was working a possible link...

between our boy Christo

and this guy Abu Shabal.

Glory to Allah,

Lord of the worlds,

who has created us as Muslims

and delivered us with the jihad

on his direct path.

Peace be upon those who follow his

direct path till the Day of Judgment.

Let me explain this to you Americans.

We are not separatists.

We Chechens are not

a legal part of anyone,

but you Americans are willingly

or unwillingly assisting

in the genocide of our people

by demanding that we obey certain rules,

and by your continued

occupation of all Muslim countries.

With the grace of Allah,

glorious and exalted is he,

America will never be safe

until safety becomes a reality for us.

Allahu Akbar.

Abu Shabal

is a Chechen terrorist...

who's associated with

the Beslan School Massacre.

He's been jumping between training camps

in Indonesia and the Philippines.

Now, the connection

between Christo and Abu Shabal...

is still a little bit fuzzy,

but if this was the lead

that Morales was working on,

it could be why
