Nobody knew anything

about the mother.

I took her as my own.

I fed her.

I taught her.

Everything was fine

until three months ago.

The doctor came and gave her a pill.

He was with her for 10 minutes...

...and then she slowly started...

To change, huh?

Schizophrenia.

Spasms.

Nothing as violent

as what you saw today.

Now, how could she know how

to operate a 30-year-old Russian sub?

She's always known things

that she never experienced.

Aurora could speak

when she was 2 years old.

Yeah, but there are kids

that can speak at 2 years old.

Nineteen different languages?

Who else knows about this?

Nobody but the doctor.

He told me to keep it a secret

to protect her.

He said...

...that we would get

the best medical help in America.

She needs help.

Crew, prepare to surface.

Get her ready.

You know, two years ago...

...in Uzbekistan,

I saw this viral bomb go off.

I saw it from the air. It was...

...incredible. Everybody died.

She's carrying, ain't she?

All the symptoms fit.

All that weird behavior.

I'm telling you, man,

she's carrying a weapon.

Do you have any idea

how much money she's worth?

If she's carrying a virus...

...l'll kill her myself

and burn the body.

What happened to them?

Fighter drones.

Anything that moves

is shot on sight.

It's 10 miles to the DMZ.

Then let's make it 10 fast miles.

Let's go.

Toorop, they're coming.

Sh*t. Finn, we're spotted. Hit it!

Brake!

Finn, get close to me.

Jump onto his bike.

I'll draw them off.

- What are you doing?

- Toorop cleared our way out.

We're only a mile from the border.

- Toorop, we need help.

- Don't worry.

We're almost there.

Toorop, we need you now.

Hang on, I'm getting there.

Stop! We have to get Toorop.

Toorop.

He's not dead.

Oh, sh*t.

Hey, stay with me.

He's not reacting.

He's bleeding to death.

I need your help. Okay.

We gotta get out of here now.

It's a small piece of metal.

I'm gonna take it out.

- What do you need?

- Just hold him.

Look, we don't have time

for this, okay?

They're gonna send more drones.

Aurora?

- You got it?

- I got it.

- He's okay.

- Give me a bandage.

We should never have turned back.

He knows the rules.

I'll sew it up later.

Hey...

...now you

and the passport are mine.

- What are you doing?

- You, I don't need.

Like I said...

...trust no one.

Remember that.

It's good.

Where did you learn to cook?

Rule number one

in the mercenary handbook.

You never had a woman

take care of you?

Sorry.

No, not in my line of work.

Finished.

- She gets pleasure out of this.

- Crybaby.

Crybaby?

What is that?

Painkiller?

No, thank you.

- Live a little.

- No.

- Aurora, stop.

- Wait, let...
