"Name's Sergei Dima." "Flew the coop last night from Sarajevo Central Prison." "Got himself on the top of the Hit Parade." "CIA put him on the Threat Matrix, which nominates him to the "Capture/Kill" list." "For escaping prison?" "For selling processing equipment that turns anthrax into aerosol." "To the Taliban."

"We're meeting with Lovett this afternoon, right?" "has been more aggressive against bio-terrorism than he has." "If we put together a mission to take down Dima, it would go a long way towards gaining the Congressman's financial support." "GERRITY:" "For Special Ops and International" "Security Affairs." "ALGAZI:" "But, Colonel, are you prepared to support our MFP11 numbers when we sit down with the Congressman?" "Yes, sir, but those damn budget books are so heavy," "I thought I'd let Major Tisnewski carry 'em down to the meeting for us." "Think you can handle that, Major?" "Been working out, sir." "Make sure you also exercise discretion." "We do not discuss pending operations." "Not even with the Chairman of the House Permanent" "Select Committee on Intelligence." "Roger that, sir." "This is an opportunity, gentlemen." "Do I need a hearing check, or did Mr. Gerrity just come out in support of ecia" "GERRITY ( over phone ):" "Yeah, it's me." "Meet any resistance?" "I don't think Sergei Dima should be making any long-term plans." "Get the 411 on anyone who made contact with Dima in the prison." "I'll get military affairs at CIA on the horn." "rgeall be roaming" "I need you to hook me up with a secure cell phone." "Yes, sir." "You need me, I'll be down at Defense Intelligence." "Yes, sir." "Dima was an officer in the old Soviet 14th Army." "He leveraged those contacts and experience into an arms-trafficking empire." "Third World Dictators look at him as their personal superstore" "SAM's, gunships, AKs." "So why does a savvy businessman flying u the suddenly get involved with weapons he knows will assified as an enemy combatant in the war on terror?" "He's on the Threat Matrix for a reason, Major." "ah, the rix is a summary written by analysts." "I need specifics about what Dima can deploy in the field." "Do my boys need inoculations, gas masks?" "You want the raw intel, you'll have to ask CIA." "You'd think after 9/11, in~telligence kids would learn to share your toys." "You can submit a priority request for information to Langley." "They'll get it to you... eventually." "WONG:" "My guess Dimg back to his dacha in Trans-Dniester." "He's got to know that home is the first place we're gonna look." "Major, Trans-Dniester is the Wild West." "Soviets left behind 40,000 tons of weaponry when they bugged out in '91." "Our Embassy in Moldova doesn't even let our people spght there." "And Dima's dacha?" "e a fortress." "You send your guys t here, tell them to shoot first." "JT:" "I need shoot-to-kill orders if we can ve thaor his men are armed." "Hell, if we even hear the word "oruzhya," we're gonna take him out." "I'm guessing that's "gun" in Russian." "The Major's right, Sam." "We're sending good men into a nasty situation." "They deserve a little wiggle room." "I'll take it under advisement." "I'd" "Thanks for your support, Mr. Gerrity." "It's nice to see you boys playing well, for a change." "He's right on this one." "ess two tickets to La Boheme at the Kennedy Center this weekend?" "Oh!" "You know, I admire your perseverance, but you know my policy on office romances." "Does this policy only apply to suits?" "Come again?" "Well, is it the uniform?" "You mean Major Tisnewski?" "Well, first of all," "I'm not interested." "And second..." "I'm pretty sure he's involved with someone." "I found it." "JT ( over phone ):" "The meaning of life?" "The most romantic BB in Charlottesville, smart guy." "Oh, hey, Ange, about this weekend, listen." "I just got handed a high-priority op." "Unless you have SAT photos of Bin Laden and Zawahiri in a Jacuzzi together..." "It's an arms dealer, Sergei Dima." "He's helping the Taliban cook anthrax." "Listen, I just sent a rush" "RFI over to Langley requesting intelligence, but I can't get anybody to move on it." "And why are you telling me this?" "Aren't you coming over to the Penn to for that Interagency Task Force meeting?" "Uh-uh." "No way." "I'm not feeding you intel." "This is the CIA, not the JT-IA." "That's too bad." "I was really looking forward to snuggling with you in front of that fireplace." "at that BB." "There Major." "You're going to be late for the Congressman." "ALGA In conclusion, sir, we're asking to fully fund the ne minced elicopter." "We believe it's vital to the success utf e operations." "Well, as you know, Black Ops is a priority of mine." "Rest assured I'll do my damnedest to get you guys the funding you deserve." "We can't tell you how much we appreciate your support, sir." "GERRITY:" "Speaking of Black Ops, Congressman, you may be interested to know we're working on a plan to take down a certain Sergei Dima..." "You'll have to excuse Mr. Gerrity, sir." "ms to have forgotten that we do not discuss current missions for security reasons." "all right, Colonel." "I've already been briefed on this Dima character by Director Metcalfe here." "I understand his CIA spooks have provided you boys with some actionable intel." "Actually, sir, I submitted an RFI on Dima to the Agency, but I'm having trouble getting a response." "Maybe you could expedite it for us." "Major." "I'll makre m gi allration you need." "CONGRESSMAN LOVETT:" "Appreciate that, Ray." "We're all on the same team here, Colonel." "Yes, sir." "Seth is here, sir." "Oh, gentlemen, if you'll excuse me, I'm having lunch with my son." "Hey." "Hey." "Hey, man!" "What are you doing here?" "Good to see you." "GERRITY:" "You look good, Seth." "That new job agrees with you, huh?" "Yeah." "Princeton Club Thursday?" "Wouldn't miss it." "Ass-kissers club is more like it." "ALGAZI:" "Major, you've just been schooled in Political Science 101." "Sir?" "You want to explain it to the man, Colonel?" "McNULTY:" "TDemocrat congressman wants, to show the voters that he's a hawk in the war on terror." "So he gets a couple of his political prot\g\s to find him a victory that he can crow about at the Rotary Club." "Aaron Gerrity used to be Lovett's congressional aide." "Lovett pMehetcalfe's last three promotions." "There are a lot of bad guworld, sir." "You sure Dima's worth sending our boys into harm's way just to serve the political interests of a bunch of fat cats?" "Well, it serves our interests, too, Major." "Those new choppers could save a lot of lives." "Captain Wilkerson and his team are waiting to bbrie on the Guatemala mission, sir." "That's today?" "Great." "I thought you'd be happy to see him." "When he hears what I'vey," "oing to be JT:" "Special Forces has a two-man rule for a reason-- it saves lives." "e all sitting here, right?" "We're all breathing." "JT:" "You let Epps Thago off on his own." "He could've been captured or killed." "But he wasn't." "You got lucky." "You know, it's pretty easy to play Monday morning quarterback fromnomic desk chair, JT." "You fellas want to give us a minute?" "You know, Bobby, you're the closest thing" "I have to a brother, so I don't like pulling rank." "But when you're in this building, you need to show this uniform some respect." "You want me out as Detachment Commander, say the word." "That's nhat ." "I get it, man." "I get it." "'Cause you're in the big building now, so why would you treat soldiers any different than the rest of these politicians?" "Wh you, man?" "Everything all right with Beth and the girls?" "Just save me the concerned-friend routine, will you?" "Everything at home is just great." "This is about you, man, forgetting your roots." "You are out of line, Captain." "Yeah, you know what?" "I'm going to go home." "to be with my family." "You want to bust me for, uh, disobeying an order, then you just call one of your MP buddies." "Bobby..." "Bobby!" "Ms. Aaronson, what a surprise." "Major." "Have you met my colleague, Brendan Turrill?" "No, but I've heard a lot about him." "Nice to meet you." "Brendan works above me in the DI." "He's cleared to give you the intel you're looking for." "I'm not." "This one's by the book, JT." "Thank you." "I'm going to need you to sign for this, Major." "Of course." "This is the latest intel analysis on Sergei Dima." "JT:" "Hmm." "This suggests that Dima isn't in the bioweapons business." "Footnoted by an analyst to that effect, yes." "This is a Threat Matrix given to the President this morning." "You noticethindifferent?" "No footnote." "Must've been removed." "Dou t find that strange?" "The Threat Matrix is compiled like a newspaper." "If one of the editors wants something out, it's out." "Who ditors"?" "Normally, the only two people who can make that call are the Director of Intelligence or the Director of Operations." "Since the Director of Intelligence has been in Asia all week, it must have been..." "Metcalfe?" "I believe so, sir." "the Deputy Director of the CIA accus of manipulating intelligence?" "Like you said, Colonel, the Congressman wants Dima n oupo litical points." "So he gets Metcalfe ign warrant." "That's really inflammatory, kid." "Well, think about it, sir." "Aaron Gerrity never met a mission he liked, but all of a sudden he's pushing this one like we're going after Osama himself." "d ift for a personal connection at Langley, we still wouldn've I from the CIA." "Sir, it's one thing to do the politis' d when they have the intel to back it up, but we can't send our boys into the lion's den on this one." "Sounds like our new mission is to kill this mission." "Sergeant, who do we have in Eastern Europe?" "We have a Special Mission Unanother in Prague." "We have a Joint Special Operations Task Force in Sarajevo and a SEAL team in Gdansk." "Sir, if we're trying to get tmiss, why do you want a list of available operatives?" "Did you hear me say anything about available, Major?" "Sergeant, I want you to find out" "And whoever that is, we give Dima to them." "We slow roll the op till we find t whallygoing on." "We're gonna have o it" "Wtill the higher-ups tput the screws to us." "Um, Major?" "thought you were taking off." "Look, I'm sorry about before." "I was, uh..." "I was out of line." "And you're right." "I have been slipping." "I guess I'm just burnt." "It happens to the best of us, Bob." "You need some RR, just the" "I appreciate that, but, uh..." "I'm thinking about something a little more permanent." "You want out?" "I've served almost ten years, JT." "It's beehell, but I think it's time to get off the bus." "Look..." "look," "I know how you feel." "Okay?" "I've been there myself." "Yeah, but you've got yourself a nice, new gig here." "You want me to put in a good word to Colonel McNulty?" "Requisition you an ergonomically-designed desk chair?" "Put it right next to mine." "I tell you, uh, Jamie's playing peewee basketball?" "Point guard." "Oh, yeah?" "How's her jumper?" "Don't know." "Never seen her play." "So, what are you gonna do?" "Well, uh..." "Beth's brother and I, we've been talking about, uh... starting Well, that, sounds auto p buinteresting." "Come on, don't bust my chops, man." "I know it's not as much of a rush as dropping out of an airplane at a buck fifty, but..." "I'm ready to make some dough." "Yeah, I hear that." "I hear that." "Anyway, we're gonna go to Green Bay and stay with Beth's parents until we get set up." "That way Beth can spend some time with her mom." "The girls can get to know their cousins." "Sounds like you got it all worked out." "'s all good things." "Know what I'm saying, bro?" "See you, buddy." "Want to explain this?" "It looks like a receipt for intelligence." "Delivered to me by one of my analysts, Brendan Turrill." "Recognize the signature of the recipient?" "So?" "So, I can't believe there's more than one Tisnewski working at SOD." "This is the same guy who was pumping me for intel in Lovett's office." "The man's just doing his job, right?" "It's my job to get intelligence, his job to do what he's told, and it's your job to make sure this operation doesn't run into any speed bumps at the Pentagon." "You're overreacting." "Aaron, can you handl thki?" "Or do I have to tell Congressman Lovett that his confidence in you is misplaced?" "Look, Ray, before you start sling outo g own house in order." "What are you talking about?" "You know who Major Tisnewski is shacking up with?" "ANGELA:" "You think he's dirty?" "That's crazy, JT." "Metcalfe is the only person who had the authority to delete the dissenting opinion from the threat assessment." "Well, even if he did shape intelligence," "I'm sure he had a good reason." "Such as?" "Did it ever occur to you that he has access to intelligence you're not cleared to receive?" "Look, if I could find one shred of evidence that Dima actually was dealing in bio-weapons," "but I talked to the NSA, DIA, FBI." "Nobody has anything." "He So, what, you think Metcalfe's trying to have our Russian friend sent to the big ranger in the sky because he doesn't like his macheAnge, this is seriou" "Fine, there's nothing to eat in this apartment." "I have to get back to the office to pick up some paperwork." "Buy me some red meat at Osbourne's and I'll indulge your conspiracy theories all night long." "Great." "I'll see you in an hour." "Counselor." "anat I do for you, Major?" "Well, I have this friend." "Oh, you've got to be kidding." "What, you think I don't have friends?" "I think you have interests." "Go on." "So, what would this friend's options be if he thought that a senior official at a certain agency in Langley was cooking intelligence nga mission that didn't add up?" "Well, first of all, Ithe S" "He has lawyer-client privilege." "ur fdoesn't." "Good to know." "And second," "I'd let your buddy know he'd better have his facts down cold before he starts slinging accuons werful, well-connected people." "If he's wrong, his career could be over." "What if he's right?" "His career could still be over." "Oh, sorry." "Brendan?" "at's going on?" "They say I've lost a secure lap op secret files on the hard drive." "That's crazy, Brendan." "Nobody's more meticulous than you." "Tell that to the inspector general." "Well, it's a misunderstanding." "It'll get cleared up." "You think my career can recover from a black mark like this?" "Playing a little Commando, Major?" "Wish I had time for video games." "It's tsionima." "Yeah, how's that going, anyway?" "Well, we hit a couple of snags." "Chopper e doing ordnance to the mission unit." "That's why we need the congressman to get you those new birds, right?" "Which unit are you using for this op, anyway, Major?" "The JSOTF out of Sarajevo." "You're sure this" "JSOTF has time for the Dima op, Major?" "for the job, Mr. Gerrity." "Best or busiest?" "You forge bein the building long e to learn most of Colonel McNulty's little tricks." "You know what's funny?" "sually the advcaution and diplomacy, but wht coa, seems like you can't wait to turn him into compost, Mr. Gerrity." "Why is that?" "Did you know that Sergeant found out Dima just walked out that of prison?" "No guns, no blood, no alarms." "Do you know anything about that?" "If I find out you've been intentionally stalling this mission, Major, I will enjoy watchiou e to the Joint Chiefs." "Where the hell have you...?" "Didn't mean to scare Mr. alfeyou, Ms. Aaronson." "I'm here with friends." "I tht yo like to join us." "Well, that's very nice, sir, but I'm meeting somebody." "Not a dashing young major from the Pentagon, by any chance?" "Sir, I'm not following you." "You are in current intelligence." "The major is in current operations." "If there were to be aleak you th" "NGthe investigation would start?" "I had the opportunity to review your record." "Exemplary." "I did notice that, uh," "this same Major did put you in harBack in your operative days." "I hope he's not doing that again." "Sir, I've neve a more dedicated officer than Major Tisnewski." "Then I c ima he'd want to jeopardize his career either." "Speaking of careers, did you hear what happened to poor Brendan Turrill?" "Suspended for losing a laptop." "Sir, just so I'm clear... are you threatening us?" "You and the major obviously have bright futures Angela." "of you." "I'd hate to see anything get in the way of that." "Angie." "What the hell's going on?" "Why weren't you at Osborne's?" "I was." "But so was Metcalfe." "He threatened areehreatened you." "How?" "What did he say?" "He implied that if we continue our relationship, that we could be investigated." "So I was right about him." "t you get it?" "They could've listened to every converLook, if they had we've ever hadeanything, they would have done something by now." "Did you find a wire?" "Not yet." "Brendan Turrill was suspended today and has to be because he brought you intelligence." "This is why I need your help to nail this guy." "You don't nail people like Raymond Metcalfe." "They nail you." "Angie, you went to Pakistan." "You helped take down a drug cartel in Colombia." "Now you're afraid of some white-collar thugs?" "You're damn right I am." "( sighs ) I got to go." "Perfect." "Look, I'm sorry about your colleague." "I'm sorry this came back on you, but these guys are playing with my men like they're, like they're a bunch of toy soldiers." "I'm to roll over for them." "Neither should you." "ALGAZI:" "Who do you report to, Major?" "Colonel McNulty, sir." "And you, Colonel?" "I report to you, sir." "And I report to the Undersecretary of Defense for Policy, who reports to the Deputy Secretary of Defense, who reports to the Sec Def rts to the President." "Sounds like you have the chain of com dow." "The question is, do you, Colonel?" "When the Undersecretary rips me a new one over a mission that shoved been underway hours ago but is still drift the building, the message is from the President to you." "And that message is, "Get your ass in gear."" "Message received, sir." "I'll pass it on." "What's with the foot-dragging, gentlemen?" "There is no foot-dragging, sir." "The Joint Staff issued a warning order." "The JCOTF Sarajevo is in isolation, at Butmir, and they're ready for deployment just as soon as Dima's location is verified." "Pictures of Dima at his dacha in Transdniester." "Just received from Gerrity's office." "How's thatHeverifica" "That's not bad, sir." "And how does Aaron Gerrity get mission-critical intel before you, Colonel?" "!" "Are you stalling this op?" "!" "Sir, I have strong doubts about the validity of this mission." "Oh, boy." "Excuse me?" "I believe that Director Metcalfe has manipulated intelligence to justify png Don the capture-or-k" "And I believe that Mr. Gerrity is colluding with him to push this mission at the behest of Congressman Lovett." "And why do you suppose these very important men to all that trouble just to kill one arms dealer?" "I'm not certain yet, sir." "I see." "Do you have any credible evidence" "Director Metcalfe has removed a footnotehis m?" "that casts doubt on Dima's involvement with bioweapons, sir." "A footnote?" "Yes, sir." "Colonel, please escort Major Tisnewski out of my office." "Roger that, sir." "Well, stall time is over, kid." "We need proof." "What do you have in mind, sir?" "Gerrity gave us Dima's location." "g et eyes ears on him." "He mightll us why ybody in Washington wants him dead." "BRENDAN:" "I just can't believe" "Metcalfe would do something like this." "ANGIE:" "Do you think your suspension was a coincidence?" "He's the best of the best:" "Kennedy School, The Farm," "Mogadishu '93, Sarajevo '94, New ' 98." "Metcalfe served in Sarajevo?" "He was Station Chief during the war." "Why?" "Why do people always want the good news first?" "Delayed gratification is o, NGGreg." "So, what do you got?" "We intercepted a call from Transdniester." "It's Dima." "I'm all ears." "But I can't let you listen." "Why not?" "Dima was talking to an American." "Who?" "Can't tell ya." ", I got to be honest with you." "You're starting to get on my nerves." "You want to eavesdrop It'son an American citizen, you got to jump through some legalps f" "You could request a Title 50 warrant from Justice." "Don't jargon me, Sonny." "callssion slip that allows you to listen to the American side of the conversation." "So let's get one." "No problem." "I'll draft it up." "As long as you're okay with destroying the careers of your operators." "Excuse me?" "If you listen to that call, and the American gets arrested, his attorney has the right to review the named sources and methods of your operators." "And that becomes public record." "SOCOM's methods are out in the open my guys in the field.er blown,e usele" "This isn't "Whocaresitstan," Major." "It's America." "We have laws." "Stall her till I get back to you, will you, Helen?" "You're a peach." "( chuckles )" "That was Helenersonnel." "She tells me NOC #9 is requesting a waiver on his stop-loss order." "That's Bobby Wilkerson, sir." "Yeah, I know who it is, but the question's why, Major?" "Burn-out." "Wants to start a business, take his wife dancing, catch some Little League games." "Sit down." "Major,noouw as well as I do guys like Wilkerson don't leave the Special Forces to hang out with wife and kiddies." "They're adrenaline junkies." "They get ants in their pants if they spend thanateside." "I hear that." "This is a warning sign, JT" "If we let Wilkerson go tomorrow, he's sleeping till noon." "Next thing you know, he'shis wife with one hand and holding a bottle of tequila in the other." "That's not Bobby, sir." "Son, maybe you don't want to believe it because this guy's your buddy." "Or maybe you're too busy trying to protect a bunch of boys out in the field, but the fact is you're missing a cry for help right here at home." "Now, my advice is you get Wilkerson to see someone." "Wait a minute." "Like a shrink?" "Bobby would never for." "I believe they're calling it "resiliency ning." "You ever get any resiliency training bk in the day, sir?" "What did NSA get for us?" "They intercepted a call to Dima from an American." "Get out of town." "e problem is we can't listen to it." "Says who?" "Samantha Liston." "It's illegal to eavesdrop on Americans..." "You went to a lawyer for legal advice?" "What the hell were you thinking?" "Pierce." "Yes, sir." "Tell the Major here our favorite provision of the Patriot Act." "It allows the government to spy on U.S. citizen me cases." "For example, if there's suspicion of involvement in terrorism or WMD." "Get the necessary paperwork down to NSA." "What do you want?" "You have my word,o make sure Mr. Dima.I'm not being follow" "Burn me again and I promise you our private partnership becomes very public." "Traced the American side of this call to an ONSTAR cell phone in a leased Town Car." "Who was it leased to, son?" "?" "?" "JT here." "Guess who used to be Chief of Station at Sarajevo." "Who?" "Metcalfe." "His closest HUMINT was a guy named Vlaski." "Worked security for the Mayor." "But Mr. Vlaski has moved up in the world." "Oh, yeah?" "He's a warden now at Sarajevo Central Prison." "You're doing the right thing, Angie." "Better n upl for it." "Sergeant Pierce says you have an update for me on the Dima mission." "That's right, Mr. Gerrity." "I have a recording that puts the op in a new light." "Let's have a listen." "I need you to sign this first before you hear it." "It's classified." "Sorry." "You know us military guys." "We're lost without procedure." "I borrow your pen?" "Now, this conversation was traced to an ONSTAR phone ongressman Lovett's Town Car." "DIMA:" "You're a hard ch." "LOVETT:" "What do you want?" "I want to make sure I'm not being followed." "You have my word, Mr. Dima." "Burn me again and I promise you our private partnership becomes very public." "This is a mistake." "Do you want to see thdataNow,conversation that Ds blackmCongressman Lovett," "Congressman Lo has is why Lovett interest we all do-- removing bioterrorists from the battlefield." "Except Dima isn't a bioterrorist." "We all read the Threat Matrix." "Which Director Metcalfe manipulated." "caushis political Why hpatrked" "This is crazy." "Are you implying that Dima isn't a criminal?" "He escaped froonpr, for God's sake." "Yeah, I was wondering about that, too." "I jua sothat Director Metcalfe was CIA Chief of Station in Sarajevo." "And that's significant why?" "alfeusted personal contact there is now the warden of the prison Dima walked out of." "It's pretty brilt, ally." "Metcalfe conspires with his old pal the warden to let Dima buy his way out of j making him an international fugitive." "Then Metcalfe gets him added to the capture-kill list" "You push a mission through the Pentagon to get Special Operations to take him out." "And whatever dirt Dima has on the Congressman goes right to the grave." "Major, you've read too many spy novels." "This isn't a fiction, Mr. Gerrity, and I'm not about to let my men risk their lives for a bogus operation." "What do you want?" "Well, you and your little cabal gave birth to this mission," "I want you to kill it." "I've known you for 20 years." "recognizce." "So I talked to Dima." "That's not illegal." "How could you get mixed uy like this, Seth?" "Dad got me a job with the defense contractor." "They sent me to a sales conference in Prague." "I met Dima in a hotel bar." "He's your kind of guy, Aaron." "You'd like him." "s a joke to you?" "No, it's business." "Those night vision goggles were collecting dust in a warehouse somewhere." "I figured out a way to make them profitable." "Until Dima got arrested." "He called, said he'd tell the FBI about our deal unless I got Dad to help him get out." "Seth, it's one thing to ask your dad to clean up your mess when you get a DUI driving home from a kegger." "He doesn't give a crap about me." "All Hal Lovett cares about is Hal Lovett." "n't really Sure, I do.ve that." "That's the way guys like him are." "You ought to know." "You're one of them." "Hello?" "Beth, hey." "It's JT" "Mr. Pentagon." "Hey, so Bobby told me about the big move to Green Bay." "He told you we were moving?" "Yeah, you must be pretty excited." "When did you talk to him?" "Oh, he was over here yesterday." "Told me all about starting up ths with your brother." "J.T, Bobby hasn't talked to my brother in ten years." "And he hasn't been home in two weeks." "He told me that you sent him on a mission." "Oh, no." "You know what, Beth?" "He probably just wants to surprise you." "JT, I am worried sick about him." "fin" "anI was right.m." "It wasn't Congressman Lovett on that call." "It was your Princeton buddy, Seth." "I think this is yours." "ve mine back?" "Transmitter." "Sometimes it pays to be an operative." "Look, Major..." "I might have pushed this operation because the Congressman asked me to, but I swear, I did not knoth e Dima intel was bad." "You can slap a lie detector on me." "Oh, I believe you, Mr. Gerrity." "Guy like you would never put his career at risk." "Of course, you're going to have to explain this to the General Counsel's Office, the Joint Staff." "Major, please." "Isn't there another way to solve this?" "We're hoping you'll do the right thing." "And what exactly would that be, Major?" "Use your influence to put a stop to this fraudulent mission." "Do you have any idea how many people have been killed with the weapons that Dima has sold?" "That doesn't give you permission to use Special Forces as your own personal army." "Mr. Chairman..." "Seth made an illegal sale of restricted technology to a foreign national." "He's going to jail." "It might be best to get ahead of this scandal and resign." "I'm not going to resign." "And my son isn't going to jail." "After all, he's not the one who spied illegally on an American citizen." "I assume you're aware of the Patriot Act?" "I helped write it." "The section providing leeway for spying on Americans is being challenged in court." "It won't survive." "Of course, if you followed U.S." "Intelligence Directive 18, you'll do fine." "Did you do that?" "Did you obtain a Title 50 warrant from the Attorney General?" "No?" "I'll have Justice all over you like a cheap suit, Major." "If it means protecting my men," "I'll take my chances." "Oh, and what about Ms. Aaronson?" "You two using classified intel as foreplay?" "Anything we've discussed is simply the sharing of intelligence betwegenc" "That kind hari a CIA career very fast." "Not to mention land an agent in jail if we find any evidence of a leak." "And trust me, whatever we seek, we shall find." "I expect an execute order in the next three hours." "Gentlemen." "What's it gonna be, Major?" "We ready?" "This is J-3 SOD to SOCEUR." "?" "He You got him, Colonel." "Congratulations." "Thank you, sir." "But it was Tisnewski's plan." "Well done, Major." "We got Dima." "I heard."
