Synopsis: Tough guy Thomas Beckett is a US Marine working in the Panamanian jungle. His job is to seek out rebels and remove them using his sniper skills. Beckett is notorious for losing his partners on such missions. This time he's accompanied by crack marksman Richard Miller, who's more of an office-type. Together they plan to seek out an important rebel leader, whilst avoiding a rogue marksman who frequents this part of the jungle.

Thanks. You mean, there's a wrong way

to fall down a f***ing mountain?

Your weapon, Miller!

lt's your life!

You knew that, and you saved it.

You're learning, son.

Our drop point from the railway

was east.

- Now, we're heading west here.

- l know that.

That's not the plan.

- The plan was no good.

- Now, what?

We're changing directions.

Okay. l was given

very specific orders...

by the staff at the N.S.C.

First it indicated a chopper insertion,

which we won't get into.

But then we were supposed to head east,

you know? Due east?

You think Washington knows

the best way to get through this jungle?

You think they know which streams are

flooded, which trails are booby-trapped?

What l know about this place, son...

is because l'm here.

Changing directions.

Good. North.

Holy sh*t.

What the hell is that?

"Hotel Europa.'

What kind of wacko builds a hotel

in the jungle?

Sure is a hell of a lucky break for us.

l got ammo and he's laughing?

Ease up, young agent.

They've been with us

since we left the train.

lf you drop the hammer on him, we'll be

dead before we can take ten steps.

He wants my eyes?

He means ante ojos.

Your shooting glasses.

Give them to him.

- Why?

- Because he likes them.

F*** him!

F*** me.

This area's swarming with rebel patrols.

These lndians can help us avoid them.

Give him the glasses.

May you go blind.

Following these lndians

is f***ing crazy.

- Their agenda works with ours.

- What agenda?

Do you see Cacique's hand-

the way it's cut up?

The animal who did that

is el Cirujano.

The Surgeon. He's headed this way,

and we're gonna take him out.

ln return, they'll lead us

passed the rebel patrols.

We'll cut off hours on our time

to Sangre.

Our mission isn't about assassinating

people for lndians!

El Cirujano's listed

as a target of opportunity.

That means, we see him,

we take him out.

Listed where?

lt's not in my orders, man.

El Cirujano's gonna be at this

river up ahead, and Miller-

You're the designated hitter on this.

So batter up.

Hold on a second now!

l'm not buying into this.

And l don't buy that you shot a man

from a moving helicopter.

It's got nothing to do with anything!

You're gonna look Cirujano in the eyes

and put a bullet through his heart...

because until l see you kill a man

you're a liability to this mission!

That's not my purpose here!

Maybe, but when we get to Alvarez's

hacienda there's gonna be two targets!

- Now, what?

- That's right.

lntelligence changes all the time.

Alvarez is setting up a meeting

with a man called Raoul Ochoa.

He's a Colombian drug lord

that's financing the rebels.

- We got a chance to get them both.

- Where does this information come from?
