BASSAM:
All right.

Looks like it's parking right up ahead.

Yeah, it stopped. The van stopped.

FERRIS:

Can I turn around?

BASSAM:

Yeah, yeah, Nizar's getting on his bike.

There's like four or five guys

getting out of that van.

FERRIS:
Can you identify any of these guys?

- I've never seen these guys before.

We gotta move.

[CROWD SCREAMING]

[SPEAKING IN ARABIC]

[NIZAR YELLING]

MAN 1:
Did you see a flash?

MAN 2:
What?

WOMAN:

Did somebody get hit?

MAN 1:
Let's see a playback on that.

MAN 2:
Stay with him.

[CELL PHONE VIBRATING]

HOFFMAN:
Hello.

- In case you didn't see it, I executed him.

You did what you had to do.

If you hadn't, he would be describing you

down to your eyebrows to them right now.

I did it, all right? It's done. I killed him.

He was always gonna get killed

no matter what he did.

Besides, you'd milked him and he was dry.

Excuse me.

Ferris?

Is your silence supposed

to say something?

Because you do know we're at war, right?

Your friend, who you must have had some

intense cross-cultural eye contact with...

...was a terrorist a-hole,

who turned out to be a coward...

...who wanted to go to Disneyland.

Listen, Ed, we're going north now,

do you hear me?

- We're going north to the Balad safe house.

- No, no, no, buddy. No, you're not.

You're blown. There's chatter.

Well, if I'm blown, Ed, that means

you should've sent a team here...

...the minute Nizar got shot,

but you didn't send a team, did you?

Well, not since we've been talking, Ferris.

You and I, we're going to that safe house,

you understand? Now.

- Ferris?

- Where's the goddamn car, huh?

Let's get out of here.

[BRAKES SQUEAL]

It's time to move.

I'm coming back to you, all right?

If something happens,

you'll shoot me, right?

- Yep.

- Good.

[IN ARABIC]

BASSAM:

Got you.

Don't you f***ing do it.

MAN:

Hassan! Hassan!

Urgent request you dispatch Chili, Speck

or Nitrate to these coordinates.

North, 34 degrees, 20 minutes,

East, 44 degrees, 24 minutes,

14.4 seconds.

This is a live target, a known

operational base of an Al-Saleem cell.

- A high-value target.

PILOT:
Copy that, on approach.

[GRUNTS]

[DEVICE BEEPING]

[SPEAKS IN ARABIC]

Aah! Get back!

[BOTH GRUNTING]

BASSAM:

Come on!

- Gotta go! Gotta go!

FERRIS:
I'm getting the intel!

Get in the f***ing car, man!

Come on! Come on!

[ENGINE STARTS]

FERRIS:

Go! Go!

BASSAM:
I've got guys coming down

the hill! Two trucks! On the right!

FERRIS:

I got it.

Keep moving!

[MEN SHOUTING IN ARABIC]

FERRIS:

F***.

We're in some serious

f***ing trouble here.

We're on Highway 1, south of Samarra.

We're being pursued by two vehicles.

We have valuable intel in our possession!
