"[Man] In 1979, Congress authorized... the formation of a contingent of elite Special Forces soldiers... who answer only to the president of the United States." "Their missions, and their very existence, are closely guarded secrets... protected by the soldiers themselves... and their wives, who possess secrets of their own." "You do not tell your mother, your best friend, your priest what your husband does." " Army regulations state" " You aren't in the army." "You're in the Unit." "Red." "Green." "Blue." "You have one shot." "And as it says in the Bible, harm no chicken but thine own." "Blue, you are up first." "You have 40 seconds." "Go." "[Clucking]" "Fifteen seconds." "And" "Twenty-five, your target's pointing and laughing by now." "You're stalking someone, do not take your eye off the sights." "Your bird only." " The Nazis got your mom." " Do it like my life depended on it." "No, I want you to do it like my life depended on it, as one day indeed it may." "You didn't account for flight time." "How long does it take for a bullet to travel its first hundred meters?" " One-tenth of a second." " Right." "And in one-tenth of a second... your target's not where it was in your sights." "You gotta adjust." "Now, a chicken- same size as a man's head." "And that's what you want- a head shot- 'cause it's more sincere." "Chicken moves like a human." "Pick a chicken out of a crowd, you can pick a man out of one." "Does he ever stop being so adorable?" "Only when Teddy doesn't get what he wants." " Theodore Roosevelt Brown." " Yes." " Where'd your mom put the chips?" " Molly brought" " Molly!" "Thank you." "Charlie team just had a man killed." " Who?" " Billy Gill." " Where?" " I heard South America." "Who knows?" "I know Billy." "His daughter Amber was in Lissy's class." "And Jen was in a play group with his other one, Melody." "He and Annette were getting married in three weeks." "Does she know?" "I believe she's been informed." "[Whispers] Bob." "Billy Gill was killed." "I'll get the girls." "I'm sure Molly's making a list of what we have to do." "Called Hank Lubatch over atJAG... to see if we can get something legal that states as Billy's fiancée... you could qualify to stay in the house a little bit longer." "Miss Terry, we can't do that then." "I have to vacate immediately." "Only wives get 90 days on base." "The girls can stay." "They're dependents." "Unfortunately, they're not" "They may not be my blood, but I'm their mother." "They go where I go." " The military" " Takes care of its own." "I'll arrange for travel for you day after tomorrow." "I'm sure we can find accommodations for you in town nearby." "You'll be close to your girls." "The girls just lost their father." "You want me to pack up, leave and call 'em from the road?" "Is there anything I can do for you?" "No." "I found my list." "Roger that." "Snake Doctor out." "FRAGO." "Mission shift." "Eliminating the rebel leader will have to wait." "Charlie team in enemy contact." "One's down." "One's unaccounted for." "We're going to the village." "Diamondback, Team Anaconda." "Diamondback, Anaconda, over." "Any contact with Diamondback?" "Damn building's sucking all the R.F.'s." "[Rifle Shots]" "Not one of ours." "Enemy sniper." "That's our direction of movement." "Clockwise sweep." "We're looking for two of our own- one alive, one not." "Bounding overwatch." "If I were a shooter, that's where I'd want to be." "[Gunshots]" "We got our body." "In a courtyard of the next building." "Blond hair." "It's Billy." " Where's Dauber?" " If Dauber's alive... he's in overwatch, in that building." "[Gun Blast]" "That's the sound of a 7-6-2." "That's ours." "That's Dauber." "He's alive." "No muzzle flash from our friend." "He's not a complete idiot." "No." "Not remotely." "[Creaking]" "[Speaking Spanish]" "Pronto." "Vaya." "Vaya." "I've got a rough location on Dauber." "In that building." " What about the enemy sniper?" " Couldn't get an exact on the shot." "We gotta let Dauber know we're here." "Try him on the alternate freq." "Diamondback, Diamondback, this is Dirt Diver." "If you can hear me, break squelch twice." "Okay, his radio must be dead." "Give him a visual." "[Yells] Son of a" "That aim, that's Dauber, all right." " Been up there a long time." " Yep." "Long enough to be hunting anything that moves... including us." "## [Call And Response]" "## [Call And Response]" "## [Singing Ends]" "He's gone native." "He's stuck to the scope, and he thinks we're the enemy." "How do we let him know we're friendlies?" "There's gotta be a bona fide that Dauber recognizes." "We get one try." "Your lucky hat." "Dirt Diver, when I break squelch..." "I want you to put 10 shots into the roof of the building across from here." "Go down a couple rooms." "You're cover fire." "When I fire these shots, the sucker's gonna fire back on my ass." "[Radio:" "Static Burst]" "[Return Gunshots]" " Snake Doctor!" " Stay down!" "[Gunshot]" "[Groans]" "Stay still." "Oh, can you pick up the girls'school records?" " Yes, I will." " Kim, medical and dental records?" "They see Dr. Reinstein on base?" "That's-That's right." "Since they were tiny." "Okay, thanks." "Okay, then, uh, burial." "Army does it, I get to pay." "Life insurance, T.B.D. Survivor benefits" "Molly, can you call Social Services?" " Of course." " Thanks." "Girls'll get Social Security automatically." "Uh, I.D. Cards for health insurance, bank account." "Huh." "Okay, girls'll keep the I.D. Cards till they're 21." "It'll give them P.X. And commissary privileges... which won't do 'em any good when we move off base." "You make it on the child support?" "Uh, if I get it." "What's that- 1,200 per month per girl." "It's not much, but we move, get settled in and I get a job, it'll work out okay." " What's funny though?" " I'd say nothing." "You get an extra hundred thousand, your man dies..." ""in a combat zone, or of combat- or operations-related causes."" "Unit men's combat related." "I don't understand." "Anywhere they go, they get shot." "Someone has a gun, I'd call that combat." "Look, I know they don't tell the real story about how they die." "It says here he died "during a training run."" "If he died during a training run... why can't they tell me when his body might get here?" " Do you know about this?" " Bob's done the paperwork the Unit requires before going out." "And you think that's enough, do you?" "First, they lie to you." "Standard active duty death- $12,420." "Enough to maybe saddle up." "Not enough to ride." "He gets a military funeral." "The wife has to pay first, then wait for reimbursement." "But the good news- Hell, we get a death gratuity of six grand... and his pay from the previous month to help cover expenses." "Only there's no telling how long it takes to get the check." "Well, won't that work out just fine?" "In short, I am screwed." "[Knocking]" "And the word spreads." "[Molly] As it's supposed to." "Did Survival Assistance come over, help you to understand?" "Sure did." "Helped me understand as a mere fiancée I have no rights to any benefits." " [Door Closes]" " I wanted to pay my respects." " I know my husband was here earlier." " Much appreciated." " Ms. Ryan." " Ms. Gerhardt." "I won't stay." "If there's any way, official or unofficial, that I can be of any assistance... please, please call." "I'm so very sorry for your trouble." "And if I can be of any- If" "If you find that you need me" "Thank you, Mrs. Ryan." "Thank you." " Billy's out there." "We gotta get his body." " Gonna take care of you first." "Take overwatch." "See if you can get an angle." "We gotta get this guy and move on." "How you doing, Dauber?" "We were tasked to block this end of town, close your back door as you swept forward." "We got ambushed." " How many snipers?" " Only one." "Son of a bitch moves like a jackrabbit." "Movement." "I see movement." "[Gasping, Whimpering]" " What was that?" " Hold it." "She's not armed." " Sniper got her." " I got the muzzle flash." "White." "Bravo." "Four." "[Exhales] He's got human shields." " White." "Bravo." "Three." " Red." "Yellow." "Yellow." "He just went behind someone." "White." "Bravo." "Two." "Red." "Damn." "Drive him my way." "We need to steer him." "Flush him left on my command." "Sniper." "Ready." "Fire." "[Gunfire Burst]" "Moving." " Move." " Sniper." "Ready." "Fire." "Only gotta miss him by a millimeter." "Keep him moving." "Where'd he go?" "Hank Lubatch called me." " Mmm." "How much more time can I wrangle on base?" " None." "I'm sorry." " I can take the girls off base with me though." " No, ma'am." "The military's responsible for the girls." "I've been responsible for Melody and Amber since they were five and one." "Tom, Christine drowned when the girls were still babies." "Billy was all alone with the" "I know that." "But what Miss Terry didn't do-what Billy didn't do... was change the legal guardianship for those girls." "What's legal?" "Morally is, they've been in my care since they were" " Under their father's care with you in the house." " But there is m" " Do you have legal guardianship of Melody and Amber Gill?" " At the moment, I do." " Are you their legal guardian?" " Not on paper, but" " That's what "legal guardian" means." " Can't you buy time?" "At least let 'em go with her to the motel till" "Miss Terry... do you know a Mr. And Mrs. Don Rohmer?" "Don and Lee Rohmer." "Do you know them?" "They're- They were Christine's parents." "They're the girls' maternal grandparents." " They're the guardians of record." " That's ridiculous.!" "They live 20 minutes from here, they've never even seen the girls." "Tom, I'll take in the girls." "They can stay with us" " Are you the legal guardian?" " I have letters" " Are you their legal guardian?" " I have letters from friends who know Annette... who knew what Billy intended." " It won't fly." " We'll get a lawyer." "We can do that." "Who will read what legally stands as Billy Gill's wishes" "In the event of his death, his daughters go to Don and Lee Rohmer." "They're demanding custody of Amber and Melody." "I've been doing some looking." "If we organize things this way, we can make provisions." " Private life insurance." "A hundred thousand dollars" " No." " It's not enough?" "Too much?" " No, it's not necessary." "I think it is." "Something happens to you, it's me that's gonna need that." " Baby." " Mm-hmm?" "Yes?" " Life insurance." " No." "Not today." "Well, um, only time to do it's today, if you think about it." "Yes." "Not today." "Nothing's gonna happen to you today, or you don't wanna sign this today?" " 'Cause you never know, God forbid" " Please." "Not today." "It's just a piece of paper, Bob." " It's just a simple request." "Not today." " What's so scary here?" "A life insurance policy." "A living will." "A donor thing for your driver's license, they don't send you home in pieces." "Not today." "Please?" "All right." "All right." " Why?" " "Why?" and "Just sign it" are out of the same drawer." " Can I get some work done?" " Who is gonna be taking care of this family if, God forbid" "Not today!" "Top, he's wrapped himself with hostages." " Wait him out?" " We're not gonna be here that long." "Get him a stretcher." "Mack, you got overwatch." "Draw his fire." "Get him to a central position." " Seen pictures from Fallujah?" "We can't leave Billy out there." " Don't intend to." "I'm up!" "He sees me!" "I'm d" "I'm up!" "He sees me!" "I'm down!" "Go.!" "Dirt Diver, give us some love!" "Get him prepared to go." "We still got time to track our rebel leader, give him a calling card." " You said you weren't gonna leave Billy out there." " We'll be back for him later." " When the sniper's bug-eyed and tired." " I ain't leaving'." "Look, Beau..." "Gill is dead." "Can't get any deader." "We got a mission to complete, and we're not leaving you here to follow in his footsteps." "Well, my mission's Billy Gill." "He's lying out there, and I ain't leaving him." "[Mack On Headset] Snake Doctor, get eyes on Gill." "Mission change." "Gill's alive." " We gotta haul him in." " We gotta deal with that sniper." "One more time." "Bounding overwatch." "[Gunshots]" "Mack, time feels right... you and Williams grab Gill." " I'll break squelch twice." " [Gunshot]" "You pop smoke, two seconds, I'm in the room." "[Gunfire Continues]" "I held this in front of your face... told you what it was, asked you to sign, and what did you say?" "Not today." "Which is the same thing you're gonna tell me tomorrow, isn't it?" " I gotta go to work." " Why won't you deal with it?" "When is the time?" "After you're dead and the family's broke?" " When is the time?" " For this?" "Yes." "Excuse me if I'm ignorant." "Though I've been any army wife a long time." "Grew up uniforms hanging on every wash line in town." " Well, then perhaps you should know better." " Don't patronize me!" "Who the hell do you think you are?" "I'm protecting this family." "I'm not in your command." "I'm not one of the Rangers you can impress with your know-how." "I have a life here." "Two kids here." "You fail to come home from a mission, I got myself a mission- how to support myself and your kids." " Oh, not now." " Sign the damn paper!" "All right!" "It is bad juju." "All right?" "There." "I said it." "I said the damn word." "Now you wanna laugh at me?" "I pleaded with you not to press me on this." "I would expect that that simple request was sufficient!" "It's okay, punkin." "We're just talking loud." " You were fighting." " You're right." "We were." " But it's- it's okay." " But you were fighting." "It's okay, darlin'." "It's all right."

" Been by to see the fiancée?" " Been busy, sir." "O.T.C. Training." " You had time to make it home?" " Yes, sir." "You got time to make yourself available to pay condolences... on behalf of the Unit before Gill's fiancée leaves the base." "Am I right for this, sir?" "You're Unit and you're here." "You knew Gill." " I did, sir." " That's right." "Family members appreciate anyone knew their loved one comes around, pays respect." "Jonas would've done this." "Who do you think he'd tap to do it in his absence?" "I will follow orders, sir." "That's what we do." "We don't just train 'em." "We mourn 'em." "Yes, sir." " Now, but, sir" " You frightened of death, soldier?" "A lot of work and thought just to draw us out." " It worked." " But he was doing just fine without it." "They baited us in." " Why?" " Dauber, can you move?" " Yeah." " Check the back door." "[Grunting]" "[Speaking Spanish]" "No threat here." "Just his junk." "He put something back there." " He put what?" " Don't know." "Something." "Behind the door." "Booby-trapped." "[Vehicle Approaching]" "Snake Doctor, we got company." "[Spanish]" "Go on." "Yeah." "They set the trap, all right."

"[Shouting In Spanish] Move it!" "Move it!" "[Shouting In Spanish] Move it!" "Run, run, run, run, run!" "Run!" "Run!" "If she paid extended medical coverage." "Military coverage." "No." "No, it's" "No." "Thank you." "Every nook and cranny of the military, and can't find anything that'll help Annette." "[Annette] So, you'rejust gonna give the girls to them?" "You're gonna give 'em away?" "They don't even know those people.!" "Oh, thank God." "Come here." "Those people were estranged from Billy when Christine was alive." "The Rohmers say differently." "Even if it's true, doesn't matter." "How can it not matter?" "You're gonna put 'em in a new home, school, new state?" "What chance do they have of a normal life?" "Military can't concern itself with that." "Well, what can the military concern itself with?" "[Molly] Mr. And Mrs. Rohmer?" "Uh, I was a friend of Christine's." "Oh." "Those girls are all we have left of her." "You must be devastated, of course." "You know, I'm a room mother at the girls' school... and I thought you'd like to have these." "Oh, Lord." "They grow so fast." "They are the prettiest girls." " Doesn't she look just like Christine?" " Yes." "Christine at that age." "You know, if I may, it steams me..." "Annette claiming it's about the money for you." "She's not even related to them." "Christine was their mother." " This woman was just shacking up with Billy." " The money'll help." "Death benefits, insurance, Social Security." "Girls can be expensive." "I know." "Yes, I remember." "But it doesn't matter what it costs." "They're our blood, and we're taking them home." " You're taking these girls home?" " Oh, you bet we are." "But these aren't yours." "This little angel here, she's Jen Gerhardt." "This is her sister, Lissy." "You don't even know what your grandchildren look like... and you sure as hell don't give a rat's ass about their welfare." "And what does that make you?" " [Jonas] In here." " [Children Whimpering]" "[Speaking Spanish]" "All right, force on force." "Let's push 'em back so we can get these nice folks out." "Frag 'em." "Gonna cook 'em out for a two-count on my command." "Ready?" "Pull." "One, two." "[Groaning]" "Go now!" "Everyone!" "It's not safe!" "Do not come back!" "[Speaking Spanish]" "Go!" "Isn't that our original mission heading this way?" "Yep." "And it looks like he's coming to have a talk with us." "Annette's name's not on the account." "She has one credit card." "I went through the bank records." "Billy wrote all the checks." " How'd she expect to pay the bills without checks?" " That's my point." "She wasn't thinking about money." "Annette's worry is those children." " [Knocking]" " Uh-huh." "I'll get it." "You think the grandparents even met those girls?" "It's hard to believe, but I doubt it." "I take it this is official." " For the Unit." " She's packing." "She'll be right out." "If you'll wait in the living room, we'll bring you some coffee and whatnot." "Okay." "Afternoon." "L" " I wanted to pay my respects." "Bob, thanks for coming." "Is there anything I can do for you?" "I was with Billy four years." "I know what you do and how you do it." "Can you get my kids back?" "Hmm?" "Can you give me some rough justice?" " [Gunshot] - [Shouting In Spanish]" "[Groans]" "They gotta think they can beat us." " Movement to contact, then a peel-off." " Affirmative." " We're gonna buy you a few minutes, then bring 'em back." " Gotcha." "[Shouting In Spanish]" "Pull it!" "[Whistles]" " [Groaning, Screaming]" " Yeah, I bet that hurt." "[Children Chattering, Yelling]" "[Chattering]" "I'm sorry to intrude." "I'd like to speak to Molly Blane." "[Women Murmuring]" "My husband says that this whole thing with the grandparents is about the money." " Is that what you think?" " I do." "They don't care about kids." "They just want what comes with them." " Then might I make a suggestion?" "Give them the money." " She can't just" "Why not?" "I have the number of a friend in Washington." "She's a lawyer." "She specializes in family law." "She suggests Miss Terry file a formal legal objection to the grandparents... alleging bad faith and asking the intercession of the court." "That's the stick." "Here is the carrot." "Meanwhile, you approach the grandparents with this offer- that they keep the money and the allotments and you keep the girls." "She did not suggest- as it is illegal- that when you meet with the grandparents... you also have somebody filming the meeting." "To blackmail them in case they want to try to back out of the deal." "But the tape won't be allowed in a court of law." "Yes, well, that's not what I'm suggesting." "What are you suggesting?" "[Women Continue Chattering, Faint]" "How you doin', kid?" "[Wheezing]" "We're going home." "[Children Chattering, Yelling]" "[Murmurs] Okay." "Colonel Ryan's here." "You want me to send them in?" "Or you wanna come out and say good-byes?" "[Exhales]" "Who would have thought when I made this list... the last thing on it would be "Say good-bye to the girls"?" "Just give them up?" " We can negotiate." " We don't negotiate the welfare of children." "As their guardians, money goes to you" "Social Security, pension, death benefits, support- till they're 21." "To help raise them." "What if you got the money, didn't have to raise them?" "Annette's filing for legal custody." "It might take a year, 18 months to be decided." "If it's decided in her favor, your money stops." "You willing to take that chance?" "It's not about the money." "If you sign them over to Annette now, paper stays the same." "All the money goes to you till they're 21." "Or you could keep the kids now... spend the next couple of years fighting over the money, maybe never see a dime." "I want it in writing." "You want it in writing you give up the girls, never see them again... long as you get their allotment." "That's right." "Isn't it interesting... you never even asked... how Annette could raise those sweet girls without any money?" "That'll be her concern." "But, all right, what's the answer?" "The answer is this:" "She gets the kids, she gets the money, you stay out of their lives." "That should be just fine." " [Don] What's that?" " Nanny-cam." "Works perfectly well on greedy grandparents too." "What do you think you're gonna do with that, show it to a judge... if we don't just hand over the kids and the money?" "No, I'll show it to the Ranger battalion Bill used to belong to." "You two will learn how they take care of family." "Colonel." "You couldn't sleep?" "Thought I could." "What a thing, huh?" "What a thing." "Couldn't sleep, huh?" "Felt you gone, woke up." "How, uh" "How'd everything work out with Annette and the kids?" "Colonel's wife stepped in today." " Did she?" " Yep." "She did good." "That took some spine." "That's absolutely right." "I, uh, cleaned out the burn box from Billy Gill's locker today." "What's that?" "Just some stuff he didn't want his family to see in the event" "What was in it?" "I didn't even think twice about looking in it." "I just burned the thing." "You got one of them?" "I do not." "And I" "I ain't that, I think... afraid of dying." "No, I ain't afraid of death." "But I'm terrified of letting you down." "And I will not let you down." "[Teddy Crying]" "Guess he's hungry." "I'll see you later?" "Why, Sergeant." "## [Call And Response]" "## [Singing Ends]"
