[helicopter blades spinning]

REPORTER 1: North Korea is beginning to pose

a genuine threat to the West.

And at this point, there seems to be

no way to stop that threat.

REPORTER 2: South Korea's military

is now saying that North Korea has

successfully test fired ballistic missiles

from a submarine.

REPORTER 3: This is clear provocation by North Korea,

and the international community has

a responsibility to respond.

We will not accept North Korea as a nuclear state nor

as a nuclear-armed state, and nor will the international

community abide by that.

We're coming up on the ship now.

Get ready to jump.

Ready.

[knocking on door]

MAN: Max, wake up!

Hello?

[shouting]

[speaking korean]

Back to work!

Hey, what's going on?

[speaking swedish]

You OK?

Aye-aye.

[speaking swedish]

OK, keep coming!

The Inshin Co. have ordered me to give

the Americans everything they need,

and that includes the Aurora.

I'm sorry, Captain.

It's just, none of this worries you?

Of course it worries me.

I have to worry about everything that happens on this ship.

This ship doesn't belong to me.

And the Aurora doesn't belong to you.

You need to remember that.

I do.

I just like to know what's going on before I hand her over.

You have to do this for me.

Without resistance or incident.

On a six hour dive?

Potentially.

With a bunch of guys that I don't know,

two more ballasts than equipped to carry,

overloaded in weight with whatever the hell

they're rigging to the side of the Aurora right now.

No prep time, no clue what the hell I'm supposed

to be doing down there.

Not to mention, we're sneaking around right

on the edge of international waters with North Korea.

"Without resistance."

That means I have to be happy about it?

Of course not.

You're not an idiot.

Hell, I don't know.

I know what I'm asking you here.

I know it's a lot.

I trust you.

If you say it's OK, then I do it.

Mats, I trust you.

Your instincts aren't wrong on this.

This is shaky, at best.

But you're wrong about one thing.

We're not on the edge of international waters.

We're about to cross the 38th parallel.

Oh shit.

You stay in contact, hm?

Get back quickly.

Yes, Captain.

ANDY (ON RADIO): Mats, Mats, do you want us

to leave any of the weights on?

No, no, no.

Take them off.

Take them all off.

ANDY (ON RADIO): Are you sure?

Have you seen the size of these guys?

We're too heavy already.

Andy?

Hey, Andy!

[speaking swedish]

Yeah, all the weights off.

Get a move on!

You must be the pilot.

Nice to meet you.

Look, we're all going to get to know

each other real intimately in about half an hour,

which is three hours less than it usually takes.

So I think we can save the instructions till then,

and I can get on with, you know, making

sure this big hunk of steel doesn't sink with the weight

of an extra passenger and all that God knows that you're

rigging to the side of her.

Look, I know it's not an ideal situation.

And believe me, if there was any other option here,

we would of course be taking it.

But right now this sub, with you as its pilot,

is the best shot we've got at completing our mission.

So like it or not, we're going to be stuck with each other.

And I'd like it if we didn't get off on the wrong foot.

OK.

And this mission of yours, you want to tell me about it?

Absolutely, Matt.

Just not yet.

It's "Mats."

Our location puts my crew and myself at very great risk.

Now, it's my duty to look after every man

and woman aboard this ship.

Of course, Captain.

When that sub goes down there in an hour,

I'm trusting you'll take on that duty towards its crew.

Absolutely.

We have understanding, then?

Yes, Captain.

Hey, you're not gonna need shoes in there.

If you kick something in wearing boots, you're gonna break it.

'Cause you'd should notice in here.

I need you to take them off.

Honestly, I don't think you want him to take off the boots.

I've been in confined spaces with him before,

and it's the last thing you want.

She's right.

They've got a unique odor.

[inaudible]

Let's not kid ourselves, people.

After three hours on this trip, it's

gonna be the odor from my feet that you're complaining about.

Jesus.

Hey, I'm just saying out loud what we're all thinking.

Just put a cork in it, would you?

Be my guest.

Park it.

Yes, boss.

OK, people, the hatch is shut.

You're now stuck with me.

Then I guess this would be a good time to do

our impolite introductions.

So welcome aboard.

I will be your pilot on this descent,

and I'll be running through some of the safety

features of this craft.

Overhead storage should be nonexistent, so

dump all your shit to the back.

If you look under your seats, you

will find that there are no real seats, so don't

put anything there either.

Anyone with bulky carry-on baggage or anyone wearing

big-ass boots better actually have

a big ass, because this is where these actors

are gonna have to live.

OK, thank you.

I think we get it.

No, I don't think you do.

Some things in here are just suggestions, things

I don't care about, like whether or not

you get foot cramp after three hours

of sitting on your own boots.

Some things I will tell you to do,

and you're going to have to do them,

because this isn't some fancy Navy SEAL submarine.

She ain't a hi-tech sporty thing.

Ain't that the truth.

She's very old, very scrappy, and very fragile.

If you kick her, she's going to break.

So in summary, guys, we're gonna have to try really

hard not to break my sub.

Are you done?

Yeah.

We understand.

You're in charge.

But on this dive, we're gonna need to do our own thing

in the way that we have to.

Sometimes it's fair that you're in control,

but sometimes I'm gonna need to be in charge, OK?

I need your help with that.

Well, you may be in charge of this mission,

but I know this sub.

You're gonna have to accept I know the ins and outs of her.

You can't do your own thing without running it by me.

We appreciate that.

OK, fine.

So let's knock off this deep, meaningful shit

and get this show on the road, shall we?

Amen to that!

Andy, you reading?

We're good to go.

ANDY (ON RADIO): Roger that, Aurora.

Hello, Mats.

We're clear of the edge. Taking her down now.

Roger that.

Start taking her down.

ANDY (ON RADIO): Aurora just coming into the water now.

Roger that.

Air pressure five, carbon dioxide scrubbers

are actually working well.

Onboard temperature good.

Outer lights, check.

Video feed connection, testing cameras 1, 2, 3, and 4.

Check.

Master arm, check.

81, system check complete.

Onboard batteries at 98%, giving approximately 12 hours

on the main cells.

All other systems are good and ready to go.

All clear for starting descent.

BOOMER (ON RADIO): Copy that, Aurora.

All clear.

Roger that, Boomer.

What is that?

You're got an extra comms link through your guy?

Is that gonna be a problem?

Could be.

My comms run on a hydrophone through Yung-Gang.

You can't run another signal through it.

It won't work.

It's not going through your pick-up.

It's a separate line.

We dropped our own boy with a transceiver.

It's not gonna interfere with your comms link in any way.

OK, ready?

Good to go.

We're good to go.

Good to go.

ANDY (ON RADIO): Aurora, we are unhooking you now.

Last minute check before descent.

You OK there?

You guys ready to tell me what we're here for?

We need to start searching this area here.

38.628, 124.289.

Oh, searching for what, exactly?

What are we looking for?

If we just survey this area, I can identify

what we're looking for.

Well, you guys better keep your eyes peeled.

Grid references aren't usually that accurate below water.

We're looking at a large area.

Control 81.

We're coming up on the seabed now.

Slowing down our descent.

Over.

ANDY (ON RADIO): Roger that, Aurora.

Already?

Yeah, the Yellow Sea is mostly only about 300,

400 meters deep.

Great for fixed oil rigs.

Is that why you're out here?

Yeah, kind of.

I'm part of the research team.

We're here to assess the area, see if it's

suitable to support structures.

What, the private sector actually bought this thing?

I didn't buy her.

But considering she was built in the Cold War,

she's in pretty damn good shape.

This wasn't in the Cold War.

I meant in the '70s.

She was originally a DSRV.

That's a deep submersible rescue vehicle.

Yeah. Yeah.

I know. I know what that is.

I don't know where it was from originally, but the Norwegian

Navy got a hold of it in '82.

Decommissioned in '89.

Reappropriated by the commercial companies Stoldt-Virgin a year

later, and now rented out cheap to the Inshin Company

and the Koreans.

It was built by the Brits?

Hm?

Before Norway got it, she was British.

Yeah, right.

So basically she's patched up tin can.

Great.

Recommissioned.

Most sea-vessels are.

Planes too for, that matter.

Yeah, but this is a lot easier to fly.

Ah, it's actually a pretty tricky.

Please.

My kid could pilot this thing.

The basic principle, sure.

It's when things go wrong you need real skills.

And a lot of things can go wrong.

One inch or two out of position on a rocky seabed and you

can easily punch a hole in the hull.

What's your kid's name?

Did that happen?

What?

Hitting the rocks.

We'll need to watch out for the outcrops.

By the looks of your search area,

we'll be getting even shallower.

Visibility is still pretty good here, but with these lights,

we could easily fly right something that was small.

How big is the thing we're looking for?

It's not important.

Well, it could be.

I mean, if it's big like a sunken ship or something,

then I can afford to take it up a little bit.

It's not a ship.

Just keep us at a safe distance as you are now.

You'll know when you see it.

If you say so.

[beeping]

Grab that for me, will you?

You're a quick learner.

Thanks.

So what's the story, Denholm?

The map.

Where are we heading?

Why don't we quit the chitchat, ladies,

and keep your eyes peeled?

Is he always this much fun?

I'm fucking hilarious.

Control 81, this is Aurora.

We're descending to 225 meters at 39.223 and 124.376.

Still nothing.

Over.

Do you really have to keep doing that?

ANDY (ON RADIO): Roger that, Aurora.

What?

The relaying our positions every two seconds.

It's fine.

His line is not as secure as ours.

Look, if someone was listening in...

Matt, could you give us our position

so Holmes here can translate them

back through our comms link?

Do you mind telling me why?

There's a slight possibility that someone

might be listening in.

And these updates do give away our position clearly.

And I thought I was paranoid.

Yeah.

Whatever.

Control 81, come in.

I'll be giving instructions to relay our position

through our passengers.

I think he likes the idea as much as I do.

81, do you copy?

I know it's a bad idea, but they seem real keen on it.

81, do you copy?

Andy, if it's a bad line, respond in clicks.

Boomer, this is Ahab.

Come in.

Boomer, do you read?

Over.

What the fuck is going on?

Just wait.

Wait a second.

Holmes?

Nothing.

What is that?

ANDY (ON RADIO): Aurora, come in, we've been boarded.

Repeat, we have been boarded!

[radio static]

81, come back.

81, please respond.

Say again?

You've been boarded.

Boarded by who?

81, do you read me?

[speaking swedish]

- Back off! - Hey, you've got to calm down!

[beeping]

Me?

Whoa!

Shit!

Shit.

What is going on up there?

Who's boarded them?

Fuck.

I'm shutting down propulsion.

Wait, wait!

What?

It's time.

Holmes.

Time for what?

Hey, can somebody fucking talk to me?

Sit down!

It could just be a routine boarding of the ship.

If it's a commercial and no threat to the North.

This was part of the contingency plan.

We hold.

Yeah.

What contingency plan?

MAN (ON RADIO): Aurora, come in.

This is Yung-Gang.

Come in, Aurora.

This is Yung-Gang.

Back off!

OK? Back off!

I need to answer that.

ANDY (ON RADIO): Aurora, if you can

hear me, you need to report to surface

and reboard the Yung-Gang.

He's not using a sign-off or the previous

sub designation 81.

That's bullshit!

We can't risk it.

Kill it.

ANDY (ON RADIO): Aurora, please respond.

They're threatening the crew.

Shut it off!

You hear that?

We need to surface now.

Hey, is anybody listening to me?

Yes, I heard you.

And everything is going to be fine.

In all likelihood, the Yung-gang has been boarded

by the North Korean Navy.

It's probably just scare tactics.

We don't know that they're even aware of us.

So we don't need to start panicking, not just yet.

Yeah, we do.

What do you think is gonna happen if we lose our top ship?

We have factored in all the contingencies.

And if that happens, we'll still be fine, OK?

No, it's not OK.

If there's no top ship, if we're stuck in here...

Now, wait a minute.

We still have a job to do.

I don't.

I understand this is some kind of secret mission,

but Aurora does not belong to you.

It does now, buddy.

Hey, shut up.

I need that uplink.

If this ship gets sent back home, we're in deep shit.

And what do you think we're in now?

We need to surface.

And we will.

But we need to finish what we came here for.

Listen, we can just say that you

are a part of the research team and you can come back later.

I'd be happy to pilot you.

You don't get it, do you?

No, I don't.

So why don't you fucking tell me?

We're wasting time here!

If they found Boomer, it may not be long before they

figure out we're here. - Boomer's too smart for that.

Hey, I'm not kidding.

We need to surface now!

And we will!

I appreciate you're not in the loop

and you're unaware of the full picture here.

But you have got to understand that with these sorts

of players in this kind of game, we're looking at a very

large geopolitical situation.

Do you understand me?

Yeah, fuck you.

Look, I am asking you because...

Yeah, I understand.

I'm not a fucking idiot.

We are on our way to North Korea,

and I'm happy to go along with that.

What I'm not happy to go along with

is us losing our tether to the top ship.

This is our fucking lifeline!

And we're willing to cut it.

The deal you went along with and that your captain,

that your company signed you up for

included the scenario that we lose this tether

and we lose this sub!

This is what is happening.

I don't care what kind of situation this is.

You know, I don't care what you think.

This is our operation!

You are still my passenger, and I'm still

the pilot on this fucking sub!

What are you doing?

He was going for you!

What is wrong with you?

Well, I'm sorry, but he's right.

We're wasting time.

Still, I don't think that was the appropriate option.

And we still need him.

Oh, bullshit!

Any one of us could pilot this sub.

You know that. - That's not the point.

This wasn't part of the plan.

The plan's coming loose.

You're coming loose!

What the hell's going on with you?

Nothing.

Pull it together.

Is he OK? - He's fine.

He's gonna have one hell of a headache

when he comes around, though.

As unnecessary as it was, I think we need to restrain

him for when he comes around.

I mean, he's... he's gonna be pissed when he does.

It's a small space.

Yeah, do it.

No, you do it.

I want you back on control.

Parks, you know, you better hope this doesn't take us that long,

because if he comes around, we're

gonna want him on our side, and I'm not

sure how cooperative he's gonna be after your little fucking

stunt.

And get back on that uplink.

I want communication.

Roger that.

[beeping]

We're still not getting anything.

I've checked it three times now.

There's just... there's no signal coming through.

So either Boomer's had to cut us loose

or unfriendlies found the buoy, took it out.

Either way, we're not gonna be able to get feedback

via the satellite without it.

Just keep trying.

OK, I think I found something.

What?

There.

See?

No, can you shine some more light on it?

Uh, maybe.

Shit.

Yeah, yeah, I see it.

She looks to all be in one piece.

Almost.

The left side is damaged.

What do you think?

Are we gonna be able to salvage anything?

It's hard to say at this point.

Well, are we still considering that as an option?

I mean, without the uplink, we won't be able to get

word back to command.

Just let me worry about that.

Let's see what we can find first.

I mean, salvage or not, we still need to confirm what

we can to report back later.

I don't wanna know what kind of trouble ran into this thing.

Think our... our pilot's awake.

You can stop holding your breath!

Go easy on him, Parks!

You OK?

I apologize for his actions.

It wasn't my intention that you get hurt.

Whatever this is, I hope it's worth dying for.

If we get stranded out here...

Stranded?

That's what you're worried about?

Look, I know you're a little out of your comfort zone.

You're finding it hard to understand some of our actions.

But let me assure you, we are now in control of the sub.

You do as we say, and there won't be

any more unpleasant surprises.

We don't need you anymore, Matt.

That means you don't have to be awake.

So if you continue this line of questioning and obstruction,

I'm gonna have to let Parks here put you out again.

Understand?

Yeah.

Can you please untie me?

I need to check that this guy isn't damaging my sub.

The sub is fine, and he's fine.

Please let me help.

I understand, and I won't be a problem.

Untie him.

Boss, I don't think that's...

That's an order.

Everything is OK.

Hey, hey, what did you just do?

Turn it on!

What did I just say?

Something about that you were in control

and that you don't need me anymore.

I... I... I don't know what he's done.

Turn it back on.

Not until you tell me what's going on here.

And if you don't get that ape out of my face,

I'm not giving you what you want.

You wanna know what I want?

Go ahead.

Take a look.

What is that?

Jesus.

The RQ4, a global hawk UAV, a US

unmanned aircraft with full targeting

and surveillance capabilities.

[inaudible]

I think he gets it now.

It's a drone.

Beautiful, isn't she?

So this is your big secret?

Why can't the US just come and get it?

They did.

You make a big song and dance about it,

and suddenly everyone knows why you're here

and what you're looking for.

The op needed a cover, and you're it.

I mean, why come for it, anyway?

It's the perfect hiding place.

No one's gonna find it.

You'd be surprised.

Well, look.

Here's the deal, Matt.

You help us get what we want form the UAV,

and we'll surface.

And when we get picked up, and will get picked up,

I'll leave it out of my report that you saw anything,

ensuring that you don't spend the next three

months in lockdown answering questions

from a bunch of guys in black suits with no sense of humor.

And what if we get picked up by the North Koreans?

Then I'll make sure you've got a ticket

on the chopper that comes in full of Marines

to rescue our asses.

And the crew of my ship?

I don't give a fuck about your ship, Matt, or your crew.

I guarantee you everyone on board will be fine.

And if they have been boarded by the be KNP or whoever.

They will back off at the first sign of our people.

But before of that can happen, we need to finish

what we came down here to do.

So the sooner we get it done, the sooner we can get the fuck

out of here and go home.

OK, what do you want from me?

We're in position.

Well, we need to unhook the gear

and use the arm to place it near the drone.

Do you now how to use that?

Yeah.

OK.

So what is the thing you are hooking?

We want to extract the information from the UAV.

You can do that?

It's a localized tool for ripping data

from secured physical drives.

It has to be attached to a specific point

to be able to make the connection.

It's a failsafe extraction port on the aircraft.

Jesus, fuck, why don't you just tell him, everything?

So that's why you're here, to get the data onboard?

Doesn't that shit get beamed back

to the Pentagon or something?

Not in this case.

Well, the RQ4 does have satellite feed capabilities,

but this one was damaged and...

That's enough, Holmes.

Matt, you gotta believe me when I

say you really don't wanna know anymore than you already do.

You're right.

I don't wanna know.

So let's get this done.

[whirring]

OK, we're in position.

Activating now.

Machines

Received intact.

Prepping delivery of the scrambler.

Do it.

Done.

What about... what about the...

The other thing?

Any luck with the topside feed?

Can we do it remotely from down here?

Well, maybe, but without the topside transceiver,

we're gonna have a serious problem with the signal.

Meaning what?

Meaning we probably won't be able to make

the minimum safe distance without the boost turbo.

We'd be struggling to maintain a connection even at half

the distance we discussed.

What are you talking about?

Well, can we set it on a timer?

No, that would have to be set directly to the device,

and we can't do that with the arm.

Well, is there anything we can get outside of the sub,

manually adjust our equipment?

Hey, you're kidding, right?

Well, no.

We haven't got any equipment onboard,

and we're not... we're not pressurized for it

if there was. - OK, OK.

That's a no.

Red, this scenario didn't factor in detonation.

We needed that uplink to complete the full op.

I'm sorry.

A detonation?

Look, uplink or not, this is the full op.

What the hell are you guys talking about?

Technically, can it be done?

- Technically, yes. - Hello?

Shut up!

OK, OK.

Technically, yes.

But at what cost?

Holmes, what are we saying?

It can be done.

Parks is right, but we're seriously risking ourselves.

I mean, the effects of the blast, it could be...

Could be catastrophic.

This was never part of the plan.

The op was the safe return of the data.

Find the UAV, scrub the data, and destroy if possible!

And it is!

You and I both know what's on the line here

and the procedure for loss of communication.

I disagree!

Noted.

The operation still stands.

I think that we're making a mistake.

We'll prepare to destroy the UAV.

I think that we are making a mistake.

I don't care what you think.

We will complete the op in full.

[beeping]

Parks!

Think about what you're doing.

What did I tell you?

Shut up, or I will shut you up!

That's enough!

Because you know he's right.

I said, that's enough.

We are doing this.

You understand?

Confirm.

Affirmative.

OK, Denholm, take us out.

I want an exact reading of how far we can be whilst retaining

remote detonation capabilities.

Parks, keep our guest under control.

I want quiet while we're doing this.

You lied to me.

Wake up, would you?

All you've had from the beginning is lies.

That's the business we're in, making

sure secrets stay secrets.

Parks, listen to me.

This is a mistake.

And you're not...

Shut up!

Parks, please.

Think about your kid.

What did you just say to me?

If you let her do this, we're all gonna die.

Think about your kid.

What did I just say?

I can't do it.

I can't do it!

Hey, hey, hey, look at me!

OK, OK, that's it.

17 meters.

That's not enough!

Could be OK.

It's not enough.

I said shut up!

Shut up, goddamn it!

Listen to me.

I don't know anything about your calculations,

but I know my sub.

She's weak, and she's old.

She's not gonna take the shockwave of the blast.

Are we set?

Yeah.

Well, just wait just a moment.

We're not doing this!

We're low on time.

We punch it, we go home.

No, we don't.

Stop!

You're making a big mistake.

Have you forgotten what's at stake here?

If this falls into the hands of the Koreans or the Chinese?

This is our responsibility, gentlemen!

This is the op.

This is what we came halfway across the world to do,

and we are going to get it done!

Now.

Set the prime.

Now, You listen to me.

I'm not a part of this.

You can't take me down with you.

I'm sorry, pal, but you're up to your neck in it.

Red, you're way off on this one.

And you're insubordinate.

[beeping]

The package is primed.

Punch it.

Wait!

No, we do it now!

Don't do it.

Holmes, I'm not gonna say it again.

Don't do it.

Shut up!

Red!

RED: No!

Listen to me!

If you do this, we're dead.

We're all dead!

Punch it!

[beep]

[muffled explosion]

Get us moving!

Now!

[screaming]

Fuck!

Hey, hey, come on!

Help me!

[explosion]

Shit, put that out!

Come on!

You holding it?

OK, come on.

Hold it tight!

You got one minute before it starts to holler, OK?

OK, got it.

Make sure it's sealed.

Check out the hatch seal isn't broken!

Anything?

No.

A hissing sound, nothing?

No.

OK, don't touch the wheel!

- OK, I think it's fine. - Come on!

I think it's fine.

I'm going to pump the ballast and try to get us out.

Shit!

Holmes, you OK?

Yeah?

Well, that went well.

Are you OK?

Does that work?

No.

Can you fix it?

I can try.

OK, great.

Mayday, mayday, mayday.

This is research submersible Aurora on a broken

tether to the Yung-Gang 81.

Does anybody read me?

[radio static]

81, do you copy?

Over.

Got that?

Yeah, yeah, repeat.

Mayday, mayday, mayday.

This is research submersible Aurora on a broken tether.

What happened?

I think it's gone on through.

Oh, fuck.

Can you lean forward?

Mayday, mayday, mayday.

This research submersible Aurora on a broken tether

to the Yung-Gang 81.

Does anybody read me?

Over.

OK, I need a compress.

OK, we're gonna plug the wound, OK?

It's clean, and it's not pumping.

I'll stop the bleeding, all right?

OK.

I think it slipped around.

I... I... I can feel the blood in there.

OK, lean forward for me again.

There you go.

So what are our options?

Well, I was trying to shift our weight

with the ballast tanks, but they weren't responding.

I guess they're pretty much useless when we're upside down.

Well, can we right the boat?

I can't get any camera feeds to respond,

but I think we're wedged on something.

Wedged?

Yeah.

I think the top hatch got crushed.

I think we're wedged on the seabed.

Well, can we use main props to move us out of it?

Our main propulsion isn't working.

But I've got side rotors.

Will they work?

It's worth a shot.

Oh, this should be interesting.

We're wedged in pretty tight.

[whirring]

Fuck!

Will that work?

I'm not sure.

It's worth a shot.

Let's try.

On three.

One, two, three!

Fuck!

[shouting]

Parks!

Wait, wait.

Let me think, let me think, let me think!

OK, the main power's fried, but we're got backup batteries.

Well, can you use main propulsion on a backup battery?

I can divert backup battery to the manipulator arm.

Maybe we can use that to push us off.

[creaking]

[screaming]

Shit!

You OK?

No!

No, I'm pretty far from OK.

Calm down.

You fucking killed us.

Hey, come on.

I did what I had to do.

Yeah.

Yeah, you got your wish, and now we're all gonna die.

This is the job!

No one is going to die, OK?

No one.

He's right.

We just... we're in a bad way, and we just need to figure

out, what we're doing.

Any ideas?

Yeah, I'm working on it.

Radio's dead.

But not the lights.

The lights are on the backup battery.

I need to shift the battery to the pumps.

You can switch it back to the radio after, right?

Well, take that switch.

I need the battery to try and pump the air to the subtanks.

With that and the ballast tanks we might break free.

OK, let's give it a shot.

Flip it.

[creaking]

Oh yeah.

Come on.

Oh yeah.

No.

- Shit. - What?

What's happening?

The pumps are working, but the tanks aren't filling.

They must have ruptured in the blast.

We need to conserve the batteries.

What?

Wait, wait.

No, he's right.

I'm turning it off.

[clicking]

Fucking.

You're kidding.

The pumps must have used more battery than I thought.

It's totally screwed.

And what about the radio?

Oh, that's just great.

That is just great.

I can't access the emergency power from in here.

Outstanding.

It doesn't matter.

The Yung-Gang would be the only ship listening to us,

and we don't even know if she's still up there.

Do we?

Yes.

You don't know that for sure.

Yes, I do.

She's out there.

She knows we're here.

And so do our guys.

How long, realistically, do we have to wait

before they come rescue us?

That's hard to say.

36 hours.

Oh, Jesus.

Well, Alpha Team are less than 36 hours away.

They won't send Alpha Team.

It was always us out in the vanguard.

We're on our own.

Only hope is that his ship is still able to come for us.

Yeah, but since you didn't let me report where we are,

they don't even know we're here.

Well, what about the emergency backups in this piece of junk?

I mean, will we even last 36 hours in here?

Emergency backup will last more than twice that,

but the seal won't.

And what about him?

It's OK.

You don't have to tiptoe around it.

I know I'm screwed.

Holmes, don't say that.

It won't be that long.

We'll find a way.

In fact, as soon as his ship was boarded,

our guys would have put something into play.

We're still ahead of our worst case scenarios.

We should get him out of the water.

He's gonna get cold soon.

No, no, no, no, no, no.

I'm not an idiot.

I know what's gonna happen to me.

It doesn't matter if it's 36 hours or six.

I'm not gonna last three.

My left lung's filling up with blood.

I can feel it.

Soon, I'm gonna start choking on it.

So if it's all the same to you, I'd rather stay where I am.

The cold will help.

Holmes, I am not gonna let that happen.

And how are you gonna move me anyway, Red, huh?

Just... just let me sit here.

So what about getting out?

Out?

Forget Forget rescue.

What about swimming back out to the surface?

You said so yourself, we're shallow.

Yeah, shallow in terms of oceans,

not in terms of escaping.

The last time I checked, we were around the 100 meter mark.

What, 100 meters?

That's what?

Like 300 feet?

That's possible.

328.

And you are not swimming 328 feet back up

to the surface on one breath.

Your lungs will explode.

Hey if it comes to it, then it's worth a shot!

You're not gonna make it.

And even if you did, they'll have

put you in a hyperbaric chamber within minutes.

Well, there's one on your ship.

Yeah, and that ship might be gone!

You're not gonna make it.

Then what the hell else are we supposed to do?

Huh?

Hey!

He's right.

If we're assuming the top ship is there and able to pick us

up. then we have a better chance of waiting for them

to come down and find us.

In what?

There is no second sub.

We have to think of something else.

Is there anything onboard?

Oxygen tanks, breathing systems?

Yeah, there's a BIBS, but it doesn't work.

[cough]

Hey, didn't you guys do your homework?

Nothing on this sub works!

If you wanted a better one, you should have found one.

Yeah, well, it wouldn't have been very difficult, would it?

Enough!

Look, what about escape suits?

Your manifest said you had them onboard.

Yeah, we have SEIE suits.

Why the fuck didn't you say that in the first place, huh?

That's it. We use them!

- Wait a minute. - Oh, what?

You're gonna tell me they don't work, huh?

I don't know. I don't know.

Maybe not.

100 meter is still too deep to use them safely.

Jesus, I'll take my chances.

It's better than nothing!

Hey, listen!

There are only two suits.

What?

There are only two.

Why the fuck are there only two suits?

Why are there only two suits?

Because the Aurora usually only takes two people.

Two people, two suits!

You stupid asshole!

Hey, you pushed for this!

You're forced my hand to take you down here,

and then you forced us to detonate that bomb!

This is the consequence!

Fuck it.

We're drawing straws.

Are you insane?

We are not drawing straws.

Look, I am not just gonna sit here and wait to be rescued!

That is exactly what we're gonna do.

It doesn't matter.

Even if you get to the surface, and that is a big if,

you have half an hour before you get the bends.

Can you bank on them being up there?

I don't need to draw a straw.

Jesus, Holmes, nobody is drawing straws, OK?

Nobody.

Don't worry.

We're gonna get out of this.

[coughing]

Hey, who's worried?

Also, it seems me we're missing something important.

Oh, shit.

What?

Rose We're upside-down.

So?

So what?

It's the wrong fucking hatch.

We're upside-down.

What's the difference?

This one still works, though, right?

Yeah, but the top hatch is the only one

with two skins, two doors so you can fill up between them.

Yeah, yeah, I know what it is, but you don't need it.

Yeah, without a double skin, you

won't be able to pressurize. - Sure, you can.

You just flood the sub.

You got a million cubic tons of water above you.

You open that hatch, we'll be crushed in a second.

Yeah, but you flood it first, slowly, pressurize,

and then open it.

So we let the water fill up on the inside

to equalize with the outside pressure,

and then we can open the door, right?

Yeah, but it's gonna get real uncomfortable first.

I say we flood it.

We pull the stopper on that leak and flood the fucker.

And what about the lack of suits?

Hey, that is your fuck-up!

Why is it my fuck-up?

Look, we draw straws for the suits, and then the others,

they just...

They take their chances with the free ascent.

Look, I told you...

No, I'm not just sitting here and waiting to die!

And what makes you think you'll win the draw?

Well, two out of three ain't bad, OK?

He's already dead.

You fuck!

Says the stone cold bitch who pulled the pin!

Just wake up!

He is dead already!

OK, I'm sorry.

I'm sorry as hell, man!

OK, I truly, truly am, but he's not gonna last.

He sure as shit ain't gonna make it up to the surface

with a damned pneumothorax.

Oh, just shut the fuck up!

And you, you're the reason that we're all stuck down here!

Do you think you deserve to get out of here?

You know, Parks, you just need to calm down.

I'm making it out of here, Red.

OK?

I'm making it out.

I know.

I have to get home.

I gotta see my kid.

Take a deep breath for me, OK?

Now, I need you to look at your friend, OK?

Now, he's not some obstacle.

He's your brother, OK?

Now, listen to me.

We need to find a way to make contact with the top ship.

You need to find a way to get us that uplink back.

How?

I don't know.

Just find a way.

OK?

Hey.

Are you OK?

You need to worry more about him.

He's twitching.

His hands are shaking.

It looks like the onset of pressure sickness,

but... but he's done this a thousand times.

It doesn't always present.

Or he could just be an asshole, you know.

It's definitely the last one.

I guess we're all assholes, really.

We dragged you into this thing.

Don't worry about it.

It's a strange job to have.

Yours or mine?

Listen, don't take this personally,

but I really don't wanna die in your shitty submarine.

Anything you can think of, I'll take it.

You got it.

You should take this.

It's the data from the UAV.

Make it count for something.

I need you to get word to my wife.

You know the drill, boss.

Do this for me, OK?

OK.

You need to think about him.

Don't let your guard down.

I'm sorry.

Fuck you, Red.

Is that him?

Is he dead?

You really are a shit, you know that?

- Hey, come on, come on! - Yeah, I do.

'Cause that's the way they made us, remember?

And that's the way they made you too.

That's why you did what you did.

That's why you risked all our lives.

And that's why you detonated that bomb,

because you just kept thinking about the bigger picture.

Just park it, will you?

And don't think that i... that I can't see

what's happening here.

Hey, this isn't the right time.

And who the fuck put you in charge, huh?

Fish boy!

You need to shut up and sit down.

And that's an order.

Fuck your orders!

You're ordering me.

You really think that that still stands?

In case you haven't realized, we are at the bottom of the ocean.

We are still on a mission, and I am still in command!

This isn't some covert operation anymore.

This is a fucking disaster.

This is something out of your command.

We're just trying to stay alive and not

drown in this fucking tin can!

Hey, easy.

Come on.

Are you really gonna sacrifice one of your own

for this civilian?

You are out of control.

Do you even know what you're saying?

Do you know what you're doing?

I mean, Jesus Christ, look at your hands!

I'm perfectly fine.

I don't need you to tell me otherwise, OK?

Survival takes precedence here, not you.

Fuck your orders.

Are you done?

Because guess fucking what?

That is exactly what we're trying to do down here.

We're trying to find a way out!

No, you are coming around to the idea of ditching me.

And if that's... no, don't fucking laugh at me!

And if that happens, I would just

like to remind you that I could quite easily

snap your neck in a heartbeat.

I could go through you and this... don't fucking touch me!

You need to stand down.

You are not leaving me to fucking die down here!

I said, "stand down!"

And I said, "fuck you!"

MATS: You need to calm down!

Hey!

Fuck, you broke my heart!

It's just dislocated, you fucking baby!

Fuck!

Maybe if you just calm down, Parks,

I'll pop it back into place.

This is getting out of hand.

Do you have anything onboard we can give him?

Maybe some sedatives?

Got it.

Here.

Here, take these and stop whining.

Denholm, Denholm?

He's gone.

I'm sorry.

You gonna calm down?

Or I'd sooner leave your shoulder out of its socket.

Give me a hand.

Yeah.

What should I do?

Just restrain him.

OK.

- Three. - On three.

You ready?

OK, OK.

One, two, three.

Oh, I think I overestimated how much time we had.

RED: What do you mean?

At this rate, we won't even another couple of hours

before the sub is full.

Well, what do you suggest?

Well, what about...

No, you can't do that.

Well, let's try and think of something that we can do!

Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm working on it.

RED: Look, you know this sub better than I do.

There must be something onboard that we can use for an ascent.

We need to forget about trying to get the sub (MUFFLED)

[inaudible] and focus on getting to the surface.

Wait.

Wait a minute.

This is a life preserver with compressed air. it's not much,

but maybe we can use it and try to pump air

into some kind of [inaudible] (MUFFLED) or something

[inaudible] make it as an escape suit.

RED: Wait, what about if we ripped out the line of one

of the escape suits, turn it into a [inaudible]

Would that work?

No, we would risk ruining the seal.

Come on, give it to me.

Oh, fuck.

It's not working.

RED: Oh, God. There's got to be something.

MATS: Yeah.

What are you doing?

I can't let you do this.

Do what?

You think I'm just gonna let you take my place?

What?

Put the knife down.

And you!

You're the reason that we're in this mess.

Put the knife down!

Parks, listen to me.

Hey, shut up!

OK, you're figuring out how to ditch me,

and I won't let that happen, OK!

I have him, I have him!

[screaming]

You should never have been given command!

Parks, Parks, Parks, what are you doing?

Get his fucking legs!

Jesus!

Fuck.

You killed him?

Would you rather it was us?

He's trying to open the hatch, for chrissakes.

Yeah, I know.

Are you OK?

Yeah.

I really thought we were gonna get out of this.

We still can.

We should unplug the leak.

We fill up the sub fast, and then

we get out of here quicker.

We stand a chance of rescue that way.

You really think there's gonna be

anyone up there at this point?

Yeah.

That ship is long gone.

It'll be there.

It won't.

You don't know that.

We're gonna get out of here.

They're going to pick us up.

Either way, we stand a better chance up there than down here.

Are you listening to me?

I killed my friend.

What the fuck was that?

Me saying thank you.

I thought it would take your mind off everything as well.

Did it work?

No, it didn't.

I'm gonna get something for your hand.

Come on, let's see it.

Yeah, hold tight.

It's OK.

Is that OK?

Just hold it.

So why are you down here, Matt?

Because a bunch of bloody Americans stole my sub.

That's why.

No, I mean, why do you do this job?

No, it's "Mats."

I'm sorry?

Well, you're calling me "Matt."

It's actually "Mats."

Mats.

Oh God, I'm so sorry.

I thought it was... - No, no.

I've been calling you "Matt" this whole time.

I've been calling you "Matt."

No, it doesn't hurt.

It's fine. it's fine.

So it's like "Mutts?"

Mutt?

Yeah, "Mats."

Mats.

Hm.

And what about you?

I mean, Edwards?

That's just a bullshit name, right?

Red, what's your name?

Alice.

Alice, nice to meet you, Alice.

Mats.

God, no one's call me Alice in forever.

I think my mom is the only person who calls me "Alice."

So what do they call you?

"Red."

Why "Red?"

It started back when I was training.

Not a lot of women do what I do.

I thought none.

Yeah, well, I never quite knew how to quit,

so they had to let me in.

And because I was a girl, some guy

joked that I'd probably show up to training

in stilettos and red lipstick.

Fucker.

So like, "Red," "Rouge," whatever.

And it kind of stuck.

I didn't really mind so much.

One of the guys I was training with,

everyone used to call him "Mickey Mouse."

"Red" isn't so bad.

It's a good nickname.

My dad likes it.

He's a Sox fan.

Red Sox?

Baseball?

Hm.

You don't have that in Sweden, do you?

No, we don't.

Never mind.

Yeah.

Good?

Mhm.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Jesus, ti's cold.

Yeah, we should put on the suits.

It'll help against the cold.

So these are pretty much like wetsuits.

They fill up with air instead.

Yeah, I know.

I trained in them.

Yeah, of course.

Here.

Keep this toggle out of reach.

Yeah, I got it.

OK.

You OK?

Yeah, I got it.

Oh shit.

Oh my God.

Parks's knife.

It must have happened in the struggle.

Yeah.

- Let me take that one. - No, no, no, I'll take it.

- You take this one. - I'll take it.

Don't argue with me.

Hey, I'll fix it.

It fucking won't stick.

I must dry it.

Take it out.

[gurgling]

It's OK.

They do that sometimes.

OK.

[screaming]

[hissing]

[screaming]

Oh God!

Are you OK?

You OK?

Yeah.

Are you OK?

Yeah.

Your ear.

[inaudible]

He set off the air in my suit.

I couldn't stop it.

I don't suppose there's a backup air supply?

Well, I guess that's that, then.

Come on.

Take this. - No.

- Come on. - No.

Come on I want you to take it.

No, Mats, no!

To I want you to take it.

No.

I want you to take this, OK?

Give it back to my people.

It's important.

-

Hey, you can give it to them yourself.

This isn't over.

Yes, it is.

Hey, no drawing straws, remember?

I am not gonna let you die for me, Mats.

Well, I'm not gonna let you die for me either,

so shut the fuck up and help me think of something.

Jesus, you're more stubborn than I am.

Yeah.

Are you forgetting that it was me who dragged you down here?

My team, my responsibility, my fault!

I got it.

It's your fault. I'm not disagreeing with you.

I'm still not gonna leave you here to die, OK?

I can't.

I don't know how to do that.

It's real easy.

You just gotta give up.

I never learned how to do that either.

We're not done yet.

OK.

Anyway, I'm sure you made it out from worse

situations than this.

You seem pretty tough.

I got lost in the desert once.

MATS: Yeah?

Yeah, I was on some bullshit training exercise,

and I got separated from my unit in a sandstorm.

I was on my own for 27 hours.

No food, no water, scorching heat,

and freezing cold at night.

I finally had found my way back to a small town,

but I was convinced that was the end of me.

You see?

This isn't as bad as that.

That time you were on your own.

This might work.

Come here.

All right.

OK, come on.

What are you looking for?

Things we're going to need.

Take this flare.

Flash.

The air is going in here and it's going out here.

We'll take this suit and find a way to pass

the air from yours to mine.

OK, that sounds like a good plan,

but I'm not taking the suit.

Yeah, come on, take it.

No.

Come on, I want you to take it.

No.

If we're doing this, then this is

the way it's going to get done.

OK.

Hey, it might even work.

It'll work.

I promise.

RED: Don't do that.

What?

Promise things.

It'll work.

OK, so how are we going to get the air from your suit

into mine?

Yeah, that's the tricky bit.

We feed the pipe in here, and then under your suit.

It will strain your belt.

OK.

So long as we hold on to each other, we'll be fine.

It's not gonna work.

Pipe's just gonna come right out.

We need to fix it with something.

OK, wait a minute.

OK.

Hold this for me.

Who would have this would come in handy?

OK.

Pull it hard.

You've got everything, the data drive?

OK, good.

I wonder.

If you'd have known what we were retrieving whether you

still would have helped us.

I didn't want to help you at all, remember?

Yeah, you did.

You're a good man, Mats.

You don't know me that well.

Are you kidding?

How much more intimately can you get

to know a person than being tied together

at the bottom of the ocean?

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry for everything.

You asked me before why I was down here.

I don't really know how I got here.

I don't think about it, and I never look back.

So whatever happens to us, don't ever look back.

Oh, you gotta be kidding me.

Anything else?

[powering down]

RED: Oh God.

MATS: Shit.

OK.

OK, it's OK.

Hold on.

I got this.

[panting]

Hold this.

Come here, come here.

It's just a little tight in here.

Yeah, just a little.

Listen to me.

Everything is good.

We're fine.

OK?

OK.

Just imagine you're somewhere else, somewhere dry,

somewhere warm.

Really warm, really dry.

OK?

As the water fills up, I'm gonna open the hatch,

we're gonna get out of here.

I'll go first, and you'll come straight under me.

[inaudible] We'll hold tightly to each other, and then

we'll pull the cord.

Not before, OK?

OK, OK, I got it.

I got it.

We'll be fine.

Yeah.

OK, it's time.

OK.

OK, I'm gonna open the hatch.

Hold on!

It's stuck!

- What? - I can't open it!

Give me a hand!

No!

Mats, Mats!

Mats!
