it's about what's right.

It's about what's just.

Whatever you think I did,

I can assure you I didn't do it.

See, that's where you're wrong, Henry.

You can't assure nobody of nothing.

I will always place the mission first.

I will never accept defeat.

I will never leave

a fallen comrade behind.

That sound familiar?

I'm telling you this

so you'll understand.

I always knew I was gonna be

a f***-up like my old man.

And I did not disappoint.

No, sir. So I had to make sure

my baby brother was the opposite.

In school, he get a

"B" I'd belt him one,

make sure he raised it to an "A."

He was everything I wasn't.

He was a f***ing all-star

at everything.

He enlisted so he could go to college.

And I told him,

if you're gonna be a soldier,

you're gonna be the best soldier.

I pushed him...

the way I wish somebody

had pushed me.

When he made Special Forces,

it was the proudest day in my life.

Few months later, I got locked up

for this bullshit assault charge.

That's where I got the letter...

telling me Decker'd been killed...

- in a firefight in Afghanistan.

- Decker!

- You're Decker's brother.

- I said shut the f*** up!

Now that's a hard pill to swallow,

finding out your baby

brother's been killed.

But what made it even harder...

was learning he had been abandoned

by his commanding officer

and left to die at enemy hands.

They sent us in,

without knowing the risks.

It wasn't my fault.

It wasn't anyone's fault.

So why did you resign?

The military acted on bad Intel.

They gave the order, it went crazy.

I don't know I...

I guess I just couldn't

take it any more.

That is f***ing bullshit!

Admit it.

Admit you got my brother killed.

Confess it right now,

and I will make sure

your death is quick.

But you keep lying to me,

and I promise you,

it will be anything but.

They ordered us into a shitstorm,

your brother got separated,

and if we'd have gone in there,

we'd have all been shredded.

I had to protect my team.

You had to protect yourself!

You're a f***ing coward.

You should've been leading

the charge, Henry,

not falling behind it.

Hey, Henry, it's Kayla.

Um, I just wanted to tell you

that I'm running a few minutes late,

but I...

You don't have to do this.

We can work this out.

No, we can't.

Oh, you guys.

Now that is good, pure, crisp air.

Eto, are you ready to dive?

Just about.

- Francois.

- We're getting close.

And how are we for time?

The next shift arrives in three hours,

twenty minutes.

We are clear till then.

I want to be gone in two.

We have to retrieve

fifty pounds of pure,

white, uncut heroin,

and pound for pound,

it's worth more than each of you.

So make yourselves worth a lot.
