-Go, go. -We're going right.
Stop traffic up there. Let's go!
Approaching.
I think we have touchdown.
-A little to the right. -Going to the right.
Hello, mamma.
Now push it in.
-I can't. -What do you mean, you can't?
-Pretend it's your dick, man. -How about I pretend it's your dick?
You'd never get in if you did that.
-Here. Let me have a shot. -All right, give me a sec.
No, come on. Time's up. It's my dick, man.
Go.
You fucker.
-Got that? -Yeah.
There we go.
-Look at that. -Nice 155, huh?
-Yeah. -155?
It's going to do some fucking damage. Okay.
Hey, Eldridge, looks like we're going to need a charge.
I got that.
I figured four blocks, that'll give us about 20 pounds of bang, total.
That blast is going to roll straight out there.
The shell will probably kick out there, and most of the shrapnel
is going to shoot straight up in a beautiful umbrella pattern.
Yeah.
We're gonna get some smaller pieces and shell fragments this way,
but we'll be okay if we're behind the Humvee.
-Bring the bot back. We'll load it up. -No problem.
Bot is moving.
Let me know what you got, Eldridge.
-Good to go. -All right. Wagon's set up. Bot moves.
-Uh-oh. We got goats, guys. -Heads up. Goats.
-Watch out. -Blow them little bastards up.
-Oh, shit. -Shit.
-Oh, fuck. -Wagon's having a bad day, boys.
-Did you build that? -No, the U.S. Army did.
All right. Looks like I'm going down there.
You don't like waiting around this beautiful neighborhood?
I love it.
So, if everything looks okay when I get down there,
I'm just going to set it up and we'll BIP it.
Give these people something to think about.
Want them to know if they're gonna leave a bomb on the side of the road for us,
we're just gonna blow up their little fucking road.
Sounds good.
-Craving a burger, is that strange? -Not for you.
No, okay.
-Helmet on. -Happy trails.
-Fans on. -Blaster One. Can you read me?
Roger that, Blaster One. You're good to go.
You're looking good, Blaster One.
It's nice and hot in here.
150.
Roger that, 150 meters.
Hi. Where are you from?
Where are you from?
-California? -Hey, get out of here, man.
-Where? -Hey, this ain't a fucking meet and greet.
Now get out of here. Now.
Go.
-You making friends again, Sanborn? -All day long.
-Twenty-five. -Twenty-five meters.
Roger that. You are now in the kill zone.
-Thanks for reminding me. -That's what I'm here for, baby.
Okay.
-Okay, the dets are good. -Roger that.
Okay, I'm laying on the charge. Nice and sweet.
I'm good to go. I'm coming back.
-Five meters out. -Five meters. Roger that.
Hey, Sanborn. You know what this place needs?
-I'm listening. -It needs grass.
-We gonna start our grass business? -That's right, man.
I'm going to sell the grass, and you're going to cut it.
It's going to be called Sanborn and Sons.
We'll be rich.
I like that. Crabgrass, St. Augustine, man. I'm a scholar on this shit.
How about this? You sell it, I fertilize it.
-Twenty-five. -Twenty-five meters. Roger that.
Sanborn! Butcher shop, two o'clock, dude has a phone!
-Why is Eldridge running? -Make him put it down!
-Put down the phone! -Come on, guys. Talk to me.
-Drop the phone! Drop your phone! -Shit!
-Hey, burn him, Eldridge. Burn him! -Put down the cell phone!
Eldridge, burn him! Get out of the way!
-Drop your phone! -Tell him to put it down!
Go get it! Stop him, Eldridge!
I can't get a shot.
Thompson!
Anywhere's good.
-Is that everything? -Yeah.
Yeah?
Come in.
Sergeant James.
-J.T. Sanborn, my man. -Hey. Hi. How are you?
Will. Call me Will.
Welcome to Bravo Company. Welcome to Camp Victory.
Camp Victory? I thought this was Camp Liberty.
Oh, no. They changed that about a week ago.
Victory sounds better.
All right. Well, good. At least I'm in the right place, right?
-Yeah. -Well, while you're here, can you
-help me move this thing real quick? -Yeah, no problem.
Maybe you shouldn't take this down. You know, we get a lot of mortars at night.
You know, the plywood on the windows help with the lateral fray coming through.
-That's why it's up there. -Yeah, well,
it's not going to stop a mortar round from coming in through the roof, you know.
Besides, I like the sunshine.
Hey, I'm sorry to hear about Thompson.
-I know he was a good tech. -Yeah, he was.
He was a great team leader, too.
Yeah, I'm not trying to fill his shoes or anything.
You know, I'm just going to do my best.
Appreciate it.
All right. Cool.
Well, home sweet home, right?
Aren't you glad the Army has all these tanks parked here?
Just in case the Russians come, we have to have a big tank battle.
I'd rather be on the side with the tanks, just in case, than not have them.
Yeah, but they don't do anything.
I mean, anyone comes alongside a Humvee, we're dead.
Anybody even looks at you funny, we're dead.
Pretty much the bottom line is, if you're in Iraq, you're dead.
How's a fucking tank supposed to stop that?
Would you shut the fuck up, Owen? Please?
Sorry. Just trying to scare the new guy.
I saw a little bit in Afghanistan, too.
Should get your eyes on the road, Eldridge.
Copy that.
Move.
Blaster One, this is Victory Main.
Have you reached your 20 yet? Over.
Where the hell are the guys that called this in?
Victory Main, Victory Main, this is Blaster Mike.
Interrogative, do you have an update on position? Over.
Victory Main. Figures to follow.
3-4-5-3 is your grid. Over.
Well, that's exactly where the hell I am, and I don't see anybody in fatigues.
Give us a second to confirm grid. Over.
Watch your feet.
Set visual is 3-4-5-3, grid.
Over.
Got the Humvee.
Friendly!
Here we go.
-They abandoned their vehicle. -We got an empty Humvee over here, James.
Yeah. Yeah, I got it.
Let's move.
Friendly.
-Morning, boys. -Sir.
Don't tell me the bomb's in here with you guys.
Let's step out, and I'll show you what's going on.
-All right. -Down on that block 20 meters,
this side of the mosque, east side of the street, our informant says
he saw a pair of wires going into a rubble pile.
-It's a possible IED. -Yeah.
-I trust this guy. I know him. -Okay. I'll handle it.
-Do you want to talk to him or... -No. Good. Keep your boys back.
We'll be good. Thank you. Specialist,
-bring up the Humvee. -What's going on?
I'm going to break out the suit.
-What about the bot? -I'll take care of it.
Well, don't you want us to get the bot down there, see what it looks like?
-I'll handle it. -It's kind of tight down here, James.
All right, here we go.
Ready?
Good?
You know, you don't have to go down there, man.
-We already have the bot halfway out. -I'll be all right.
First day, figure you want to take it easy, right?
-How's it looking, Eldridge? -Good to go.
Let's do it.
-Got tools? -Got tools.
All right. Let's rock and roll, man.
-He's a rowdy boy. -He's reckless.
Blaster One, what's going on?
Blaster One! What are you doing?
Blaster One, this is Blaster Mike.
What's with the smoke on the side of the road? Over.
Hey, James, can you hear me?
What's going on with the smoke on the side of the road? Over.
-Creating a diversion. -From what? Is there a threat?
Eldridge, get up on the wall. Move!
Tell me what you see, Specialist.
All right. I got him. He's walking down range.
James, the smoke is killing my visibility. Where are you in relationship to the IED?
Are you within 100 meters yet?
Hell, I don't know, Sanborn. I'll tell you when I'm standing over it, cowboy.
Stop the car!
Stop the car now!
Take cover!
Oh, no. A car stopped in front of him, Sanborn.
Shit. James! James, come back, now.
EOD just pulled a nine on a haji in a car.
-Do you want me to send backup? -I got it.
-Sanchez, Harris. -Negative! Negative!
Stand down. The blast will come up the block.
Stay clear around the corner. EOD has the situation under control. Over.
-Where you going? -Hold your fire, on my command.
Want to back up?
Get out of the car!
What the fuck are you doing?
Back up.
Hello?
Want to get back?
Shit.
It's that way.
Back.
Three, four rounds fired.
The nine is now pressing into the haji's forehead.
-Taxi's moving. -Eldridge, get him out of here. Come on.
-Get him out of the car! -Stop! Stop the car!
Get out of the fucking car!
Get on the ground! On the ground!
-Get down there. -Stay down.
Well, if he wasn't an insurgent, he sure the hell is now.
Roger that. That's real funny.
Found something.
Hello, baby.
Got you.
All right.
All right. We're done. Good to go.
-Good to go. -Come down, Specialist.
Roger.
Got a wire. Hang on.
Where are you going?
-Secondary. -Shit.
Take cover. Get in the wall. Get in the wall.
Oh, boy.
That wasn't so bad. First time working together. What do you think?
I think us working together means I talk to you
-and you talk to me. -We going on a date, Sanborn?
No. We're going on a mission, and my job is to keep you safe,
-so we can keep going on missions. -It's combat, buddy.
Hey. It's just 39 days.
Thirty-eight if we survive today.
Hey, it's Mr. Be All You Can Be.
-What's up, Doc? -Not much. How are you?
I'm good.
Got a question about that song, though, Be All You Can Be.
What if all I can be is dead on the side of an Iraqi road?
I mean, I think it's logical. This is a war.
People die all the time. Why not me?
You got to change the record in your head.
You gotta start thinking about other things.
Okay. Stop obsessing. Right now, what are you thinking about?
You want to know what I'm thinking about, Doc?
-Yeah. -This is what I'm thinking about, Doc.
Here's Thompson, okay. He's dead.
He's alive.
Here's Thompson. He's dead. He's alive.
He's dead. He's alive.
Yo, what's up, my nigger? What's up, man? What's up?
You cool? Come on. You want the cool shit?
Man, come on, come on. It's the tight shit, man. Come on.
Wanna buy DVDs? Wanna buy DVD? Fuck you. Come, come, please, please.
New releases. Look.
Hey. Hello, hello. Want to buy DVDs? Very good. Very good.
-How much? -One for 5 and two for 9.
-Three for 12. -Three for 13, and I don't give you tax.
-Very good, man. Look. -No tax?
All right. What do you got? What do you got?
You know, you smart shit. You not like those stupid fuck-face...
Yeah, I'm a smart guy, huh?
You're a smart kid. Give me your best one, okay?
-Here, this the best one. -This is a good one?
-Yes. The best shit, man. -Okay. Here you go. I'll take one.
-Keep the change. -Thank you.
Want a cigarette? Get out of here. You shouldn't smoke.
Thank you. Take it easy.
I need to talk to you about something before we go out again.
What's that?
Yesterday.
Wasn't cool.
Yeah, I know. You'll get it, though. You'll get it.
-So, you're a ranger, huh? -Yeah.
I was in Intelligence seven years before I joined EOD.
We ran missions in every shithole that you could possibly imagine.
So, I'm pretty sure I can figure out a redneck piece of trailer trash like you.
Looks like you're on the right track.
See you out there, man.
Come on, let's go. Move it. Move it.
Shit. Get out of the way. Move.
-Hello. -Good morning.
-Where is it? -It's behind the wall.
-All right. See any wires? Any smoke? -No. I didn't look.
-So how do you know it's a bomb? -The car has been parked illegally.
The suspension is sagging.
There's definitely something heavy in the trunk.
Right. So, why don't you walk over there and peek inside
and tell me what you see?
You want me to go close to it?
Yeah. No. I don't. No, I'm kidding. I'm kidding.
Shit. It's coming from over here!
Third-floor balcony. A gun!
Blaster One, you there?
Blaster One, you hear me?
Here. Go!
Shit.
Let's go, guys.
-Sarge. -Yeah?
-Let it go. -I got top cover.
That's a negative, Specialist. Eldridge, you stay with me.
-Sanborn, you take top cover. -Shit.
Blaster Mike in position.
What do you got?
I got a through and through to the chest, but I got him stable.
He's not going to make it.
If we leave here in 15 minutes, he's got a survivable wound, sir.
He's not going to make it.
Oh, God.
-What's he doing? -I don't know.
What are you doing?
There's enough bang in there to send us all to Jesus.
If I'm going to die,
I wanna die comfortable. I need my kit and my cans, yeah.
-What's going on down there, Eldridge? -I'm getting his kit and his cans.
Cover me, please.
Kit and cans.
Got a lot of det cord, electrical.
All right, I'm gonna look for the initiating system.
Well, it's not in the back seat.
I don't think.
All right. It's not in the back seat.
Got a young man on the roof, your nine o'clock, keep an eye on him.
Roger that.
It's not in the front seat.
It's not in the door.
Not on the floors.
Not in the glove box.
If you haven't found it yet, it's probably under the car.
Yeah. No wire leads under the car. It's all in here somewhere.
-Hey, Sanborn. -Yeah.
You got eyes on some guy with a video camera?
-No. Where? -He's right at my 12 o'clock. You see him?
He's pointing the fucking thing right at me.
Shit. Negative. I don't see him.
Hey, Sanborn. He's right at my 12 o'clock. Look, 12 o'clock!
Roger that. I got him.
Getting ready to put me on YouTube.
-Little shady. -Yeah, he looks shady.
-Keep an eye on him. -Okay. So, what's the play?
Be smart. Make a good decision, over.
Got more wire that
leads fucking nowhere.
Fuck!
-Hey, James, how you doing? -I'm wonderful. How are you?
You know, we've been here a while.
-We need to get out of here soon. -Uh-huh.
We got a lot of eyes on us, James. We need to get out of here.
Roger that. I'm going to figure this out.
James, we need to get out of here.
-James, do you copy? -Fuck it. I get it.
Fuck me.
-Hey, how's it looking in there, soldier? -All clear.
James, the evac is complete. We can leave. Let the engineers handle this mess.
-We moving? -That's affirmative.
-Interesting. -What's up with James?
-He's not answering me. -Yeah. I think he removed his headset.
Will you tell him to put his radio back on, please?
Hey, James! Sergeant Sanborn is asking if you'll please put your headset back on.
That's a negative.
That, yeah, that's not going to happen.
Shit.
I got eyes on three guys at the minaret at six o'clock.
-What the hell is he doing? -I don't know what the fuck he's doing.
Looks like he's checking the oil.
They're communicating with your cameraman.
-This is real bad, man. -Get behind the Jersey barrier.
-I can't see James from here. -Get down now!
We can go!
Bastard.
We're done.
Sanborn, let's get out of here.
That was good.
-Hey, James? -Yeah, yeah.
Never turn your headset off again.
-You the guy in the bomb suit? -No, sir. Sir, that's Sergeant James.
-He's right here. -Hey, James.
-Yep. -Someone's here to see you.
You the guy with the flaming car, Sergeant James?
Afternoon, sir. Yes, sir.
Well, that's just hot shit. You're a wild man, you know that?
-Yes, sir. -He's a wild man. You know that?
-I want to shake your hand. -Thank you, sir.
Yeah. How many bombs have you disarmed?
-I'm not quite sure, sir. -Sergeant?
-Yes, sir. -I asked you a question.
-Eight hundred and seventy-three, sir. -Eight hundred and seventy-three.
Eight hundred and seventy-three! That's just hot shit.
-Eight hundred and seventy-three. -Counting today, sir, yes.
That's gotta be a record.
What's the best way to go about disarming one of these things?
The way you don't die, sir.
That's a good one. That's spoken like a wild man. That's good.
Hey, what's up, man?
Hey, wait a minute. Look who it is.
I want my 5 bucks back, buddy.
$5 for what, man? You crazy now?
Yeah. The DVD you sold me was crap.
You crazy, man. That's impossible. It's Hollywood special effects.
No. It was shaky. It was out of focus, buddy.
-What, you want donkey porn? -It's crap.
Girls on dog? Gay sex?
Man, anything you want, you get. I hook you up, man. Come on.
-All right. What's your name? -Beckham.
-Beckham, like the soccer player? -Yeah, man. It's like the soccer player.
-Now give me my ball. -Are you a soccer player?
Yeah, man. I'm best of the best. I'm better than Becks.
-You play goalie? -Yes. I play goalie.
Good. I'll make you a deal.
If you can stop the ball, I'm going to give you 5 bucks.
-But if you can't... -$5, man? What about 10, 20?
If I score... Listen to me. If I score, I'm going to keep your ball.
-Deal? -Deal.
Get up there. Go on.
Let's see what you got, hot stuff. Come on.
-Are you ready? On three. Ready? -Yeah.
One, two, three.
Shit.
Come on. Where's the $5? Man, come on.
All right. I got you. Good job, dude.
-There's 10. -You're an EOD?
-That's right. -It's fun, no? It's cool? It's gangster.
Yeah?
Yeah, I think so. Tell you what.
I'm going to buy... Let me see if I have enough money, yeah, 5.
I'm going to buy another DVD, okay?
But if it's shaky, look at me, or out of focus, or any way not 100%,
I'm going to chop off your goddamn head with a dull knife.
How do you feel about... I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding. Here.
You're a good kid, man. You're a good kid, aren't you?
Owen. Hi.
-Hey, sir. -How are you?
-I'm good. -Good.
-What's wrong? -Brakes are squeaking.
Don't trust the mechanics around here, you know?
-So, how you doing? -I'm good. I just want to check the oil.
Yeah, it's good to sleep, eating well.
Feeling pretty squared away, actually, Doc.
Well, I'm glad to hear it.
So, you getting along with the other soldiers in your unit?
Yeah. My team's great. My team leader is inspiring.
-You being sarcastic, soldier? -No.
He's going to get me killed, almost died yesterday.
At least I'll die in the line of duty, proud and strong.
You know, this doesn't have to be a bad time in your life.
Going to war is a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
It could be fun.
And you know this from your extensive work in the field, right?
-I've done my field duty. -Where was that? Yale?
Look, you don't want me to come around, I won't come around.
These talks are voluntary.
Look, I'm sorry. I appreciate what you're saying. I do.
I appreciate our sessions together,
but you need to come out from behind the wire and see what we do.
Well, if the circumstance calls for it, I will. Just like every other soldier.
Fire in the hole! Fire in the hole! Fire in the hole!
Firing now.
-Ready for second det? -Ready.
Fire in the hole! Fire in the hole! Fire in the hole!
Hold on a second.
God damn it.
-I think I forgot my gloves down there. -What?
I forgot my gloves. Hang on.
You know, these detonators misfire all the time.
What are you doing?
I'm just saying shit happens, they misfire.
He'd be obliterated to nothing.
His helmet would be left. You could have that.
Little specks of hair charred on the inside.
Yeah. There'd be half a helmet somewhere, bits of hair.
Have to ask for a change in technique and protocol,
and make sure this type of accident never happen again, you know?
You'd have to write the report.
-Are you serious? -I can't write it.
No. I mean, are you serious about killing him?
-Twelve o'clock, I see an SUV. -Roger that.
I got four armed men. They're in haji gear.
All right. Go slow and easy, man.
We're in it now.
All right. Careful now, guys. Careful.
-Eldridge, you stay on that 50. -I got them.
Put your gun down. On your knees.
Down. Put the gun down, now!
-Put up your hands. -Get down, motherfucker.
Put your gun down now!
Put your gun down!
Advance, advance.
Hands high!
-Eldridge, cover! -I got you.
Pistol off your hip, now.
What you want me to do? Keep my hands up or take off the pistol?
-Keep your hands up. -Okay.
Easy, easy.
Got it!
Can I touch my fucking head now?
Slowly.
We're on the same fucking side, guys.
Jesus.
You guys are wired fucking tight, you know that?
Right. Well, this is no place for a picnic, right?
-What are you guys doing here? -We have a flat tire. Can you help us?
Sure, yeah. You got any spares?
We have spares, but we used up our wrench.
How do you use up a wrench?
The guy over there with the red thing on his head, he threw it at someone.
-All right. -Thank you.
-This is Chris. This is the wrench man. -Hello, wrench man.
-That's Jimmy. -You know, you can shoot people here.
-You don't have to throw a wrench. -Fuck off.
Take a look at this. I picked these guys up in Najaf.
Nine of hearts, that's one. And the other, Al Rawi, jack of clubs.
-The same guys? -Yeah. That's them.
Does he need a little help there?
What's the problem with the tire? Come on.
No good, boss. This wrench is too small.
All right, solutions? Anyone?
I think there's another wrench in the back of the Humvee, if you wanna check.
-I'll give it a try. -All right. Let's do it.
How long you guys out here?
I don't know, Specialist, what do we got?
-We have 23 more days. -Oh, God.
We have 22 days after today, sir.
But no one's counting, right?
This trip never finishes.
Contact left.
Sniper!
Take cover.
Chris, take the 50. Jimmy, head back into the...
You got it.
Nice covering.
Lay it down! Lay it down!
Charlie, go! Go, go, go, go, go!
-Shit! -Rock and mortar.
They're on the sides, Charlie. Take this one.
-Get the van and the go bags, Jimmy. -Got it.
-What are we shooting at? -I don't know.
-Fuck. The packages are gone! -They won't get far on foot.
Bring them in, Sergeant, those fuckers. I'm out 500,000 fucking quid.
I forgot, it's 500,000 dead or alive.
-Okay. Jimmy, give me the Barrett. -Yeah.
Can't see a thing.
Come on!
Chris is shooting wild. Gotta conserve the ammo.
Hey, Chris, can you hear me?
Hey, Chris! Can you hear me? Chill out on the 50.
Roger that.
-Fifty's down. -He shot Chris.
It must be coming from that building.
I can't see anything.
Movement on the roof.
-Yeah? -Three meters higher.
I'm going to adjust.
My anchor fell out.
-Fuck, fuck. We need some help. -He's dead.
-We gotta get out of here now. -Damn it.
This is Alpha Nine. We're in deep shit.
-I'll get on the Barrett. -Go, go, go, go.
-Yeah, we're taking incoming fire. -Go, go, go, go.
No, Sanborn, Sanborn, don't go up there.
Go, buddy. Stay low! Stay low! Stay low!
I have two KIA... Correction, three KIA. Our grid last lock stat...
-Stay low! -Can you get me some help?
Roger that, Alpha Nine. Give me your post. Over.
-Behind you. -Yeah.
MGRF 5-5-4-2-9-7-3-4-2-0.
Alpha Nine, this is Big Dog Seven.
You're gonna have to sit tight. Over.
Just breathe easy.
-I've got movement. -Yeah.
On the ridge of that house.
-About 850 meters. -See it.
By the window. You got target?
Got it.
All right, you're a little left. Just breathe easy.
I'm out of ammo.
Eldridge, we need ammo.
-Where is it? -Check on the dead guy, man.
It's on the dead man.
-Eldridge! -I'm looking.
-We need that ammo, man. -All right, man.
Here.
Thanks.
Here.
-All right. Same target. -Got it.
-Fucking jammed. -Let me see.
Fuck.
Shit. The blood's making it jam.
Eldridge, shit.
You gotta clean the blood off, man. It's making them jam.
Specialist!
-Clean the blood off. -Okay.
Clean it. Clean it.
-You gotta clean it, man. -How?
Spit and rub.
-All right. -Spit and rub, buddy. Spit and rub.
It's not working. It's not coming off.
Just spit and rub. Spit and rub, man. Here, take it out. Take it out.
Use your Camel. Use your Camel. Where is it? You all right?
Here, use that.
Just breathe, buddy. Come on. Just breathe in.
You got it. You're doing good. Here, just squeeze. Got it?
Rub that ogive, baby. Come on, you got it. Here.
You're doing good, man. You're doing real good.
-Got them? -Yeah.
Hey, I'm going to keep you safe, buddy, all right? Now let's get these bastards.
Scan your sectors. Scan your sectors.
Kill that fucking asshole.
Son of a bitch.
Nice, he's down. Second one is out of range.
Twenty meters to the right of the building.
I got him.
Fire when ready.
He's moving. He's moving. He's moving. To the building. Follow him. You got him?
Got him.
He's down.
Good night. Thanks for playing.
Window, at the window, at the window.
He's still there.
Left window, left window. Got him?
Got him.
He's down.
-Hey, Owen. -Yeah.
Can you grab a juice out of the pack, please?
Sure.
I think we're out.
-Got anything left to drink? -You could try that one.
Here.
Thank you.
Drink. Drink it.
-Things are real quiet. -Yeah.
I don't like it.
-Hey, Will. -Yeah?
At your six o'clock, I see movement on the bridge.
-Right on the tracks. -Well, handle it.
Should I fire?
It's your call, buddy.
Good job.
Hey, Sanborn.
I think we're done.
-Okay? You all right? -Yeah.
That's what you get for hitting your fucking team leader, motherfucker.
-Come on, man. -I'll be right back. I gotta piss.
Owen. Another round, boy. That's an order.
Well, yes, sir, Sergeant James, sir.
You're not very good with people, are you, sir?
But you're a good warrior. Give me your mug.
-There you go, sir. -You acquitted yourself well
on the field of battle today, Specialist.
Cheers.
I'm too old for this shit.
-I was scared. -Yeah?
Well, everyone's a coward about something, you know.
You're good. You're real good.
Just what do we have here?
Will has possessions.
-I didn't know you owned anything, Will. -Let's see what you got here, Will.
-Who's that? -That's my son.
He's a tough little bastard. Nothing like me.
You mean to tell me you married?
Well, you know, I had a girlfriend, and she got pregnant, so we got married.
We got divorced.
Or, you know, I thought we got divorced. I mean, she's still living in the house,
and she says we're still together, so I don't know.
What does that make her? I don't know.
Dumb for still being with your ass.
Hey. She ain't fucking dumb, all right? She's just loyal.
She's just loyal. That's all. How about you guys? You got...
You got a girl? What do you got?
My only problem is the girl I do like,
I can't stop her from talking about babies, man.
Give her your sperm, stud.
Go on. Do it.
Come on, chicken shit. Just give it to her, man.
-No. Hell, no. -Make babies.
I know when I'm ready. I ain't ready for that yet. I know that.
Well, well...
-What do we have here? -Components.
They're, you know, bomb parts, signatures.
Yeah, I see that, but what are they doing under your bed?
Well...
Ah-ha!
Here we are. This one.
This one is from the U.N. building.
Flaming car. Dead man's switch. Boom.
This guy was good. I like him.
Relay... It's this guy.
This one, y'all, is from our first call together.
This box is full of stuff that almost killed me.
And what about this one? Where's this one from, Will?
It's my wedding ring. Like I said, stuff that almost killed me.
You know, I just think it's really interesting, you know,
to hold something in your hand
that could have killed any one of us.
Damn that. It's all shit from RadioShack.
-It's interesting. -I think it's interesting, too.
Well, I think you hit me harder than I hit you, motherfucker,
therefore I owe you a punch.
-Now get your ass up. Come on. -You know what? He's right.
Let's go. Come on.
Come on.
All right, hold on, boys. We need some rules.
Sanborn, no face shots.
-There's gonna be a face shot. -Sergeant James, take off your shirt.
-Yes, sir. -What happened?
-My momma dropped me when I was a baby. -Looks like frag scars.
Let it go, Eldridge.
-Come on. -All right.
Nice and big.
-You like that, huh? -That's all you got?
Come on.
Bring some. Come on.
God damn!
That's gotta hurt.
-You all right, man? -Yeah.
-He's all right. -Get up, bitch.
Get up, bitch.
-What do you got now? -Get the fuck off me!
-What do you got? -Get off me, you motherfucker.
What do you got? Come on, Sanborn. What do you got? He's a wild one.
We got a wild one.
-Let go. -That's right.
-Come on, Sanborn. -You get off me, you shit.
-Ride on him! -Get off me.
I'm riding him. Come on, bitch!
-Come on, guys. -Come on, Sanborn.
-Get off me! -Hey, hey, hey.
I'm just kidding, motherfucker. Shit.
You're all right, Sanborn. You're all right, man.
Owen, get this guy a drink. Come on.
-You got him? -Yeah, I got him.
-Right here. -All right.
-I'll see you later, man. -Get home safe. All right.
Come on, big boy. Damn, boy, you need to get on a diet.
He hurt his knee. Carry on.
Come on, man. Steps.
Come on. Step, step.
Jesus.
All right, lay down. Lay down.
-Get some rest. -Hey, James,
you think I got what it takes to put on the suit?
Hell, no.
Good night, boy.
-Morning, Colonel. -Morning. Mind if I ride along?
I'm sick to death of sitting behind a desk all the time.
It'd be a privilege. Hop in, Colonel.
Hey, Doc.
Not to insult your intelligence, sir, but if the shit hits the fan,
please don't fire out the Humvee.
The round will just bounce around and someone might get shot.
I don't like getting shot.
Understood, Sergeant.
It's a pretty standard mission.
We're just here to pick up some unexploded ordnance.
Sergeant James is gonna go see what the deal is...
All right, guys.
...and hopefully we're gone in a couple of minutes.
-We've gotta gear up. -For what?
Security hasn't gone in. We'll just go in quiet. Radios off.
-Roger. -Roger that.
-I'm glad you came. -Stay safe. All right.
Psst. Psst.
-Clear. -Hey, cigarette's still smoking.
It's all our shit.
Motherfucking goldmine.
Watch out for trips.
I got something.
I know this kid. His name's Beckham. He sells DVDs.
You ever see a body bomb before, man?
It's fucking disgusting, man. Let's get out of here.
Eldridge, why don't you grab all the C4
and det cord you can get your hands on, okay?
Let's get all this ordnance out of here.
And we're just gonna... We are gonna blow the place, got it?
-Roger that. -Let's blow it.
What are you doing?
Yeah? Putting the stones in to move?
Yeah. That's really wonderful, but it's a little unsafe today.
Yeah, it's a little unsafe. So, maybe... I don't know,
I'm thinking maybe we should move?
No?
Fuck.
-You all right? -Yeah. You?
Yeah.
-You all right, man? -Yeah.
No one in or out, okay?
Cancel the det. Cancel the det.
-Fuck is he doing? -I don't know, man.
I don't know.
-I'm coming out. -Roger that.
Hi.
-Where are you from? -New York.
-The Big Apple. -I'm from Iraq.
I love it here. This is a beautiful place.
But it's not too safe here, okay? So I think we need to move, please?
You think it's that little base rat?
-No, I don't. -You positive?
Sure. Hey, I don't know, man. They all look the same, right?
I don't know. Will seemed sure. That was weird.
Very weird.
Please, just move.
Move. Move.
Thank you. Move on.
Move on. Thank you.
I'm sorry.
Will's very weird.
I mean, he keeps bomb parts under his bed.
I bet you he won't keep any of these parts under his bed.
Bye-bye.
Yeah, bye-bye. Bye. Thank you.
Hey, Colonel. Let's go.
So long. Thank you.
IED.
-IED, IED. Fuck. -Cambridge!
-What happened here? -Clear it.
-Jesus! -Get back! Get down!
Stay back.
Stay back, Sanborn. Keep them back.
Is anyone hurt?
Cambridge! Fuck. Fuck.
Where's Cambridge?
-Cambridge, come on. We gotta go. -Shit. I think he's dead.
We got to find Cambridge. Doc!
-Eldridge. Eldridge. -Doc!
-Eldridge! -Doc!
-Eldridge, come on, man. Come on. -Doc!
I just saw him. He was walking right here.
He's dead, okay? He's dead. Okay?
It's all right, man. You're all right, buddy. You're all right.
Hello?
Will?
Hello?
Hey, let me ask you a question.
What happened to the little kid that used to work here?
Sorry, man. English... I, no English.
No English. You no speak English now.
Okay. Little kid. Beckham is his name. He sells DVDs.
DVD. One DVD, $5.
Jesus Christ.
-$5. -Excuse me, soldier.
-You in charge of this area here? -What's up?
You know this guy?
How do we know that he's not giving intel to insurgents,
telling them where to drop mortars?
-I think he's just selling DVDs. -Well, he's a security risk.
We should get rid of him. What are you looking at?
He's just selling DVDs, man.
-All the merchants are clear. -By who?
I couldn't do anything with him without the say-so from my CO.
All right. Fuck.
Fuck.
Change anything?
You speak English now, don't you?
-Okay. -Drive.
-Okay. -This is his house?
Beckham's house?
Wait here.
Fuck.
Shh!
You speak English?
-English, French, Arabic. -Good. Open your vest.
Stay there. Stay.
Tell me what you know about Beckham.
-For whom? -Beckham, 12-year-old boy, body bomb.
Stay right there.
-I don't know. -You don't know.
But please, sit down. I am Professor Nabil.
This is my home.
You are a guest. Please, sit down.
I'm a guest.
I'm just...
I'm looking for the people responsible for Beckham.
You are CIA. No?
I am very pleased to see CIA in my home.
Please, sit.
Look...
Be careful. The gun can go off.
-U.S.A. friendly coming in. -Stop.
-Get the fuck down! -Stop right there.
-U.S.A. friendly. -Halt.
-On your knees. -Get down on your knees, now.
You will be shot.
-Don't move. -Don't fucking move.
-Get the fuck down! -On your knees!
-Down now! -Open your jacket!
-Opening my jacket. -Cover. Get him down.
-On the ground. -I have a weapon.
-Don't fucking move. -Get him down.
-Tower, hold cover. Searching. -I have a weapon.
-Hands where I can see them. -Gun.
-Like I said. -Weapons clear.
ID?
-What the fuck are you doing? -I was at a whorehouse.
All right. If I let you in, will you tell me where it is exactly?
Yeah.
James, do you copy?
James, do you have your ears on?
James!
Yes, it's James. What's up?
-Hey. -What's up, man?
Look, we have a tank explosion in the Green Zone.
We have to do a post-blast assessment.
See if it was a suicide bombing, and if so, how the fuck did he do it?
Okay.
Where'd you say you were again?
I didn't, Sergeant. Let's go.
What happened to your head, James?
You ready? Game face, buddy. Let's go.
-You ready? -Let's do this.
-Rock and roll. -Moving out.
Good night.
Get somebody on the roof.
U.S.A. friendlies coming through.
Make room, guys. Make room.
Hey, Sanborn. Look.
Grab the other arm. Grab the other arm. Grab the other arm.
Sir, can I get a medic? Need a medic!
-An oil tanker? -Yeah.
-Pretty long flight, huh? -Yeah.
All right, eyes front, eyes front.
This is the edge of the blast radius.
Jesus.
-So, where's our trigger man? -Burnt up in the flames, man.
Suicide bomber. We'll never find a body in that shit.
What if there was no body? What if it was a remote det?
A really good bad guy hides out in the dark, right?
Right here.
The perfect vantage point outside the blast radius
to sit back and watch us clean up their mess.
-Wanna go out there? -Yes, I do.
-I could stand to get in a little trouble. -No, man. This is bullshit.
Look, you got three infantry platoons behind you
whose job it is to go haji hunting. That ain't our fucking job.
You don't say no to me, Sanborn. I say no to you, okay?
You know there are guys watching us right now.
They're laughing at this. Okay, and I'm not okay with that.
Now, turn off your goddamn torch, because we're going.
Fucking shit.
Now we know where their oil tanker came from.
No shit. Same kind.
-We're close. -Yeah.
All right, these alleyways are probably set up in a grid.
We're going to need to split up, flush them out.
Sanborn, you take one. Eldridge take two, I got three.
Rally point at your intersection. Ready, move.
Wait, rally point when?
Fuck.
Shit.
-Shit! -You got contact?
Who was it? What's going on?
-What do you got? -It's Eldridge.
Go, go. Man down. Man down.
-Shit. Shit. -All right. No, no.
-Negative, negative. It's not him. -Shit.
-He's gone. -It's not him.
Where'd they go? Where'd they go?
Tankers and troops are that way.
-Let's go this way. -Fuck!
Fuck.
Use your torch. On three.
Ready?
One, two, three.
-Fuck. -Shit.
Softly, softly, softly.
One, two, three.
Now, now, now. Go, go, go.
Eldridge, you okay?
-Fuck, dude, I'm hit. -Shit, he's hit, man.
They hit him in the fucking leg. Shit. Come on, come on, come on.
-Am I dead? Am I dead? -No, you're fine, man. You're fine.
-You're fine, man. -That's right. Just breathe.
Hang on, buddy.
-Okay, I got it, got it, got it. -You got it?
I'm gonna put some pressure now, come on. You're all right.
You're all right. Look at me, look at me. You're all right, okay? You're all right.
All right, buddy. You ready to get up? On three, ready? One, two, three.
Hey, what's up, man? Hey, man. What's up, man?
Wanna buy some DVDs? Wanna play some soccer?
Wait. What's up? Come on, man. Wanna play some...
-Hey, wait a minute! -Fuck.
-Hey. -How you doing, buddy?
Doc says you're going to be okay.
My fucking femur is shattered in nine places.
He said I'll be walking in six months, if I'm fucking lucky.
-Six months ain't bad, huh? -It's not bad? Fucking sucks, man.
Take it easy, buddy.
You see that? You fucking see that?
That's what happens when you fucking shoot someone, you motherfucker.
Sorry. Sorry, Owen.
Fuck you, Will. Really. Fuck you.
Thanks for saving my life, but we didn't have to go out
looking for trouble to get your fucking adrenaline fix, you fuck.
Hey, take care of yourself, Owen.
Come home safe, man.
-See you on the other side, man. -All right.
Let's get out of this fucking desert!
Don't move.
If you keep walking, we will shoot you.
Move him back.
-Keep that translator back. -But the bomb was forced on him.
Get back!
Don't move! Stay still!
If you keep walking, we will shoot you.
If you keep walking, we will shoot.
Get that translator back, now.
-He's not a bad man. -Clear.
Give him room. Give him room.
Hey, what do you got?
He came walking up to our checkpoint, said he had a bomb strapped to him.
But he's sorry. He doesn't want it to go off.
Then he starts begging us to take it off of him.
-Right. -Help this man. He's not a bad man.
He's not a bad man? He got a bomb strapped to him.
This is a joke. He's trying to pull us closer.
Yeah, I got it. I got it. All right. Look, tell him to open his shirt slowly
and see what's inside.
Slowly. Slowly.
Slowly!
Jesus.
All right, Sergeant, I need a 75-meter perimeter. Get these guys back.
-Get them back. -Give me 75 meters. Get back!
You tell him to get on his knees and touch the sky, okay?
Slowly!
Get down!
-Okay. I need your radio. -Can't we just shoot him?
-No, no, no. -No.
He's a family man. He's not a bad man. He's just asking for help, only help.
All right. Look. Just get back, like everyone else.
-He's asking for help! -You don't want to die, get back!
I got it.
-Listen. I know we've had our differences. -Yeah.
Eldridge... Look, it happened, all right? It's water under the bridge.
James, this is suicide, man.
That's why they call it a suicide bomb, right?
Let's do this.
He says the bomb may have a timer, please hurry.
-We're good. -You all right now?
Yeah.
-Go get them. -Let's do it.
-See you. -Watch for snipers.
Yeah.
Get your hands up.
He says he has a family.
Please help.
Now, listen.
-Please. -Look.
It'd be a lot easier for me to disarm this if I just shoot you. Do you understand?
All right. What's he saying?
He says, “I don't wish to die. I have a family.
Please take this off me."
All right. Tell him to put his hands behind his head
or I'll be very happy to shoot him.
Look, that's not what I said. Tell him to put his hands behind his head
or I will shoot him.
Listen.
Listen, listen.
Yes? Yes?
Yes? You understand?
Okay.
What do you got here?
He has four children.
Shit.
All right, Sanborn, we got a timer, and we got a lot of wires, man.
-I'm going to need a little help on this. -Roger that. Tell me what you need.
Bolt cutters. But you gotta get down here in two minutes,
-or we're all fucked. -Roger that. I'll be there in 30 seconds.
He says, "Please, I have a family."
I know. I know. Just...
It's okay, you're all right. You're all right.
Says, "Please don't leave me.”
-You weren't fucking kidding. -Nope.
What's this made out of?
Shit.
Oh, man. That's case-hardened steel.
Shit.
-What's our time? -We got two minutes.
-Shit. -We're gonna need a torch to get this off.
Well, we don't have one of those in the fucking truck, man.
-He's dead, man. -Hold on. Let me think.
Just let me think. Let's handle this. We're gonna...
It's okay. We got this. We got this. Just... Shh! Okay?
I'm gonna look at the back.
It's just... We don't got enough time, Sanborn. We don't have time.
I just gotta... I gotta get these bolts off.
No. We got a minute and a half, man. We gotta get out of here.
-I'll handle this. Just go. -Look, Will, come on, man.
Look, I'm right behind you. Just go.
Fuck him! Come on. Let's go.
-Sanborn, I got the suit. Just go. -James.
Sanborn, you have 45 seconds. You have 45 seconds, Sanborn, leave!
-He's a fucking dead man, Will! -Go!
-Everybody get back! -Go, go, go!
We got one.
Go! Get back! Get back!
Shit, I can't!
There's too many locks. There's too many. I can't do it.
I can't get it off. I'm sorry. Okay? You understand? I'm sorry.
You hear me? I'm sorry. I'm sorry!
Get down now!
I can't help him.
Everybody stay down! Stay down!
James! Everybody up and out. James!
You all right?
No, man.
I fucking hate this place.
Here, man. Have a hit.
I'm not ready to die, James.
Well, you're not going to die out here, bro.
Another two inches.
Shrapnel zings by, slices my throat.
I bleed out like a pig in the sand.
Nobody will give a shit.
I mean, my parents will care, but they don't count, man. Who else?
I don't even have a son.
Well, you're going to have plenty of time for that, amigo.
-No, man. -You know.
I'm done.
I want a son.
I want a little boy, Will.
I mean, how do you do it, you know?
Take the risk.
I don't know. I just...
I guess I don't think about it.
Every time we go out, it's life or death. You roll the dice.
You recognize that, don't you?
Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah, I do.
But I don't know why, you know.
I don't know, J.T.
Do you know why I am the way I am?
No, I don't.
Pizza. Pizza.
-You did some shopping. -Yeah.
I got some soda. We done?
You want to go get us some cereal and I'll meet you at the checkout?
Okay. Cereal.
Where...
Some guy drove his truck to the middle of an Iraqi market,
starts passing out free candies.
All the kids come running up, the families and stuff.
He detonates.
They're saying 59 are dead.
You know they need more bomb techs.
You want to chop those up for me?
Yeah.
You love playing with that.
You love playing with all your stuffed animals.
You love your mommy, your daddy, your nature pajamas.
You love everything, don't you?
Yeah.
But you know what, buddy?
As you get older,
some of the things that you love might not seem so special anymore, you know.
Like your jack-in-the-box.
Maybe you realize it's just a piece of tin and a stuffed animal.
But the older you get, the fewer things you really love.
And by the time you get to my age, maybe it's only one or two things.
With me, I think it's one.
-Welcome to Delta Company. -Sergeant.
