As I said, through
our mutual friend in Burma...
...I thought maybe everybody
could be understanding here.
We just want peace.
You guys have the whole of Burma.
Stay there, leave us alone
and tell my friend I said hello.
We respect him.
We're staying out of his face.
We run a really big operation here.
Sometimes things like this,
it happens.
We've been doing business
for a while.
You keep your territory,
we keep ours.
This arrangement works.
Right? War's never good
for business.
Yes, you're right. The last thing
we need is an enemy in the CIA.
Cross!
Help! Help!
Yeah, it's all clear.
Check the front gate?
Done.
- Check the north side?
- Yeah.
Done. It's clear.
- You don't see anything over there?
- I can't see nothing.
I checked it. It's clear.
- Hey, Daddy.
- Hey, baby, everything okay?
Everything's great. How are you?
- Hey, did you get the list I left you?
- Not yet.
I can't believe you.
Well, listen.
Don't forget to feed the fish.
And remember, Maria comes in
on Wednesdays.
And take care of yourself, okay?
- Don't drink too much coffee.
- Don't worry about me.
Hey...
...let me talk to Brice.
Dad, how did you know?
Baby, when are you gonna understand
I know everything?
Listen, Daddy, I love you.
Take care of yourself, okay?
All right. Love you. Bye.
- What?
- Nothing.
Shut up, asshole.
My dad's the best.
- Come on, guys. We've got to go.
- The train leaves in two hours.
All right.
- Let's go.
- Yeah, let's go.
Watch out over there, man.
Yeah. All right. It's not like
it's gonna break or anything.
It's time for you to die.
It's time for you to die.
You're giving me a headache!
- You all right?
- Yep.
Okay.
Hey...
...so why didn't you tell your dad
that I...?
That I was coming with you?
He's... He's protective.
After Mom died...
...I'm all he's got.
All right.
He's a good guy.
Like I hope you will be.
And now for the latest world news.
Officials search for evidence
after a bomb destroyed...
...a police station in Thailand
this morning.
Fourteen military police were killed.
- Gen. Jantapan of Special Forces...
- Come on, it's so boring!
- Music!
...assures the community...
...no stone will remain unturned.
- Music!
Enjoy yourself!
Yeah, that's more like it.
- Oh, my God!
- No!
No! Oh, my God!
Out of the water. Quickly.
- Hey, you can have all our money.
- It's not about the money.
- No!
- Brice!
- Hey, Tom.
- Hey, Jake.
Two days early.
Listen, the agency know
you're still using me?
No. No, this is just between
you and me.
Well, let's keep it that way.
Listen, there's something else.
- We got a tape today.
- What are you talking about?
There's no two ways to put this.
Jessica and the Winthorpe girl
were kidnapped.
You're kidding.
- Does this have to do...?
- No. Absolutely not.
- They don't even know who Jessica is.
- Well, is it money or...?
We don't know anything yet.
Well, is she okay?
She's alive.
The Abu Karaf can no longer
not do anything...
...when our brothers are tortured
and oppressed.
These prisoners of war
will be executed...
...within a week if our demands
are not met.
All members of the Abu Karaf must
be released with full pardons.
I demand an immediate response!
They got a list of demands
as long as your arm.
We have a good relationship
with General Jantapan.
He favors direct action
and is offering full cooperation.
Gentlemen, I'm sure you understand
the sensitivity of the situation.
We have to ensure
this stays in the family.
Nothing is released without
my express permission.
