Commando Page #2

Synopsis: A retired special agent named John Matrix led an elite unit and has left the armed forces to live in a secluded mountain home with his daughter Jenny. But now he is forced out of retirement when his daughter is kidnapped by a band of thugs intent on revenge! Unbeknownst to Matrix, the members of his former unit are being killed one by one. Even though Matrix' friend General Franklin Kirby gives Matrix armed guards, attackers manage to kidnap Matrix and Jenny. Matrix learns that Bennett, a former member of his Matrix' unit who was presumed dead has kidnapped him to try to force Matrix to do a political assassination for a man called Arius (who calls himself El Presidente), a warlord formerly bested by Matrix who wishes to lead a military coup in his home country. Since Arius will have Jenny killed if Matrix refuses, Matrix reluctantly accepts the demand.

with your daughter.

You're a funny guy, Sully.

I like you.

That's why I'll kill you last.

Move!

Hasta luego, fellas.

First class, 7 a.

And you're 7b, sir.

Any carry-on luggage?

Just him.

Open your mouth again,

I'll nail it shut.

Fasten your seat belt, sir.

Thank you.

Could I have

a blanket and a pillow?

Sure.

- There you go.

- Thank you.

We're now preparing

for departure.

Please make sure

your luggage...

is safely stored

in the overhead compartments.

Fasten your seat belts

and extinguish all cigarettes.

Once we reach

our cruising altitude,

we'll be serving

complimentary beverages...

and then our dinner.

After that, we'll be showing

our feature film.

Your flight attendants are

Susan and Lance, and I'm Debbie.

We're here to make

your trip comfortable.

Have a safe

and enjoyable flight.

Excuse me.

How long is the flight?

We land in Val Verde

in 11 hours.

Thank you.

And do me a favor...

Don't disturb my friend.

He's dead tired.

Upright, please.

Thank you.

Sir, during takeoff,

you must remain seated.

I'm airsick.

Yeah, the bird has flown.

The cargo's aboard.

Now go to the drop-off point.

Yes. Gracias, Sully.

We are right on schedule.

With any good fortune,

today will be my last day

as a civilian.

Your father seems

to be cooperating.

You will be together

with him soon.

Won't that be nice?

Not nearly as nice as

watching him smash your face in.

Take her below.

Yeah!

Well, my 7:
40 flight

to Vancouver was canceled.

So, how about dinner?

Yeah.

I could go to bed early, too.

- Maybe another time.

- Sounds like he's mad at you.

OK. Well, I like you, too.

All right.

Talk to you soon. Bye.

Love and careers. It's tough.

Sounds like you need a date.

Well, I don't.

Girls like you meet

a lot of nice boys at airports.

Listen, you're really

bugging me.

Hey!

Hey, slow down.

- I got something to give you.

- I'm not interested.

You don't know

what you're missing.

It looks like a nightmare.

Please leave me alone!

You f***ing whore.

Don't move.

I'm not going to hurt you.

- Step aside.

- You said, "Don't move."

Do it. Get in the car.

Ah!

Ah!

Do exactly what I tell you.

- I've got a 7:
30 karate class.

- You're not going to make it.

Follow him.

I knew you would say that.

Don't get offended, but are you

going to kill me or something?

No.

You wouldn't tell me

if you were.

- Sure, I would.

- Really?

Trust me.

Stay close to him. Faster!

That's good.

Can you tell me

what this is about?

A guy I trusted for years

wants me dead.

I've only known you 5 minutes,

and I want you dead, too.

Out. Come on.

Hurry up.

- If you're in a hurry, I can...
