Roman Lesnitsky.
Low-level FSB analyst.

He could be the key
to what Pavel is planning.

We wanna hear
all about Kingfisher.

Kingfisher is a project,
and I am the grand designer.

Pavel was tasked with
carrying out my plan.

Hassan Ahmed, the final piece
of the puzzle.

Hassan Ahmed, founder of
a radical Jihadist group

behind a number of bombings
across Indonesia.

So, we get
to Hassan before Pavel.

He's the thread that can unravel
this whole thing.

Eyes on Hassan.
Gonna go loud.

Stick to the plan. I'll cover.

- Go. Go, go, go!
- Go, go.

Alpha Two, going mobile!

Zero, we're being grabbed
by local military.

Colonel Aldo,
Indonesian Armed Forces.

I need to get to the team.

Incoming!

Fuckin' hell, boss!

I may have misled you.
I'm taking us off books.

Illegal ops.

You think it's the right thing
to do, we're good.

I'm going mobile,
tracking Hassan.

I have eyes on a suitcase nuke.

If I get a shot at Hassan,
I'm gonna take it.

Sorry about that.

Where were we?

I think you were about
to apologize

for having me drugged, bagged,

and dragged to wherever this is

and offer me a ride home.

Well, you've kept
your sense of humor.

Good.
You'll need it.

Entering Russia
without our permission.

Advancing into Indonesia.

Again, without our permission.

You took your team
off books, Alexander,

and you didn't even tell them.

You risked their entire careers.

I stand by my decisions.

Really?

After all that's happened?

Pavel.

Katrina.

Hassan, the mall,

the bomb, the death, the coup.

You stand by it?

You sent Sergeant Wyatt
and Corporal Novin

after Hassan,
the terrorist you suspected

of working with Pavel Kuragin.

Zero.
Come in, Zero.

Called it.
They've jammed the signal.

Half an hour
since last contact with Chetri.

Yeah, she's smart.

If there was trouble,
she would have got out.

If she got out.

Moving.

- Nobody move!
- Don't move!

Any of your boys
so much as blink

and I'll put holes
in the boss man, here!

Look like you're having some
technical difficulties there.

What the... hey, get down!

Down!

Get to Hassan!
Get to Hassan!

- Go!
- Move!

It's the same assholes
that tried to kill us before!

Get back!

Going for the nuke!

Suppressing!

I got it!
Fall back!

Move, move!

We need to find a way out.

Exit left!

There, on the left.

All right, maybe not.

We'll go up.

Come on, come on, come on!

Get in there!

Wyatt, let's go!

Come on, come on!

We've got a terrorist, a nuke,

and a corrupt military unit
coming after us.

This is gonna be fun.

Here.

Get down.

Hands.

Oy.

Oy, have you seen her?

No.

Take a good look.

No.
No, I have not.

That was a trap.

No shit.

They massacred my people.

Yeah, that's because
you were trying

to arm a fucking nuke, asshole.

But you've been set up.

Ten years ago, there was
a mosque planned for this site.

But the developers decided
to build their mall instead,

and now they plan
to make it even bigger,

even brighter.

At least you'll have
a Starbucks, mate.

My nephew did not even
believe in the cause.

He just wanted to impress me.

He thought I was important.

Oh, bro, you are very important.

Trust me.

Teaming up with Pavel.

Yeah.

Living, breathing evidence

of Russia meddling
with a foreign power.

You're our star witness.

How you going for an exfil?

Okay, looks like there's
an employee stairwell.

Back of the department store
over there, one floor down.

Well, there's cameras
at every junction.

If we move, they'll see us.

Stay here, we're dead.

We've got to get Hassan
and the nuke out of here.

Let's go.

Is there a reason

you sent your team in
without you?

A rogue splinter group
within the Indonesian military

was working alongside
the Russians.

I needed to speak
to the military commander

and warn him.

Running your own little black op

on foreign soil...

without licenses?

It's Afghanistan all over again.

What is this place, anyway?

This is the kind of place

we get the right answers,
Alexander.

If we don't...

well, then, perhaps
it's the kind of place

you don't leave.

So...

you went to see

the Military Commander,
General Dewanto,

with no authority whatsoever.

With respect, General Dewanto,

we believe Aldo
has resurrected Skuad Komodo

and may well even be working
with the Russians.

Why would he do that?

For what purpose?

You are the ones conducting
an illegal op in my country.

Colonel Aldo...

is a son of Jakarta.

What's the matter, big fella?

Trouble with your come?

Do you have a safe room here?

Somewhere we can fall back to
if need be?

There is a military escort
due within the hour.

I'm thinking of something
a bit more immediate.

At the same time,

they will take you
and have you thrown

into a high security
military prison.

If Colonel Aldo

were planning a coup,

then the first thing
that he would do

is come after the head
of the military.

Get back!

Clear right.

Yeah, door's clear.

- You okay?
- Dewanto's been hit.

Colonel Aldo.

Have you located them?

We have locked on the building,

but there's still 400,000
square feet of mall to cover.

You need the terrorist.

And you need that bomb.

You are the reason
the British are here.

And I am the one
that armed your men

and gave you this opportunity.

Take down Hassan,

reveal his terrifying bomb plot

to a nation so grateful
to be saved,

they will cheer you on
as you seize power.

Then maybe we don't
need you anymore.

You need me.

Dewanto is still alive.

Your squad's attempt
to eliminate him failed,

and he will end
your coup like...

I will make sure Dewanto
is taken care of.

You need to let me go in there.

Skuad Komodo have
their reputation for a reason.

They will get the job done.

We need you as our last resort.

And because you don't
trust me, is that it?

No.

Because I don't want
to lose you.

They've got something.

Yeah, they're taking down
surveillance.

There.

Reckon they'll be on their way.

Well, then let's be
somewhere else.

Don't suppose you're a doctor.

No, I'm his translator.

- You got a first aid kit?
- Under the sink.

Need a pair of hands over here.

What's your name?
Sophia.

Sophia, I need you
to help me, okay?

I need you
to go around there, please.

All right, can you put this on?

Put your hands on
and press down on the wound.

Right here, yeah, yeah.

He's not gonna make it, is he?

I've seen worse.

Okay, we stabilize him,
move him out.

Proper medical attention,
he might have a chance.

Switch hands in three, two, one.

Yep.

Boss, if these guys are smart
they might have a back-up plan.

There could be more on the way.

Get the place locked down
best you can.

All right, yeah.

Okay.

You've lost them.

Aldo's surveillance cameras
not used anymore

for good reason.

Lower resolution, wider angles.

Let's go.

But they'll do the job.

I'm wondering...

if it's an arrogance,

the way you thrust
your people into danger.

Should we talk about Helmand?

- It's not relevant.
- I'd say it is.

You took your squad

to meet a hostile Shia warlord

in the hope of an alliance
against the Taliban.

How many people died
in that ambush?

I'd have thought you'd have
learned your lesson.

- I have.
- And there it is.

That temper.

The one that drives you
into your rash decisions.

Why do you think
I rejected command after that?

Sadly, it's common knowledge.

You hit the bottle
and lost your nerve.

My nerve's just find.

That's the problem.

Mind you, if the stakes
were high enough,

I'd do exactly
the same thing again.

I'd risk my team.

And what are those stakes?

This "Kingfisher"
conspiracy of yours?

All Russia really wants
is to be a superpower again.

Ever since their invasion
of the Ukraine,

we've kept them in check
with punitive sanctions.

But this Indonesian coup
was a test run

for a different form of warfare.

Covertly overthrowing nations,
installing puppet leaders,

reaping the economic benefits.

They'd be off the leash.

Sanctions would be irrelevant.

They could roll their tanks
across Eastern Europe

knowing the West
is powerless to intervene

for fear of nuclear conflict,
and if we don't stop them...

You're saying they'd just
carry on into Britain,

into America.

I'm saying they'd be so strong

they could whatever
they damn well wanted.

And you believe
this was the plan

of Pavel and Katrina all along?

I believe this is

an officially sanctioned
Kremlin op, yes.

So this is what you claim
your team was doing:

Extracting Hassan
and the nuclear device

to use as evidence
of Russia's misdeeds.

What is it they say
about the best laid plans?

They're coming this way.
We got to move.

- Hassan's running!
- Shit.

Fuck!

Moving.

Oh, fuck!

Jammed.

Novin.

Yeah.

Clear.

You hurt?

I'm sure there's
something in there, mate.

Yeah, that'll leave a mark.

Just have to find someone
who digs scars, eh?

All right, it's gonna sting.

Three, two...

There's gonna be more coming.

Yeah.

That is why you...

are gonna take the nuke... sorry.

And do a secondary exfil.

Cheers, mate.

I'm pretty sure...

there's some
maintenance elevators

right here, near the food court.

They won't be working,

but you'll be able
to climb down.

What, you're not coming?

Russia arming
radical terrorists?

We need Hassan to talk,

so I'd better find him
before the boys in black do.

Copy that.

Good?

Watch your back.

Oy, if you see Zarkova...

I'll send her your love.

Send her this, too.

Hey, keep an eye out for Chetri.

Kid's got to be
around here somewhere.

You get five seconds.

F-five...

fucking seconds to be scared.

Then you just do it.

Just do it.

Okay.

House is locked down
best we can, boss.

But if it gets all
"Rio Bravo" out there,

we're in trouble.

What about you, General?
Ready to move?

We wait for my men.

I take orders from no one.

We're not giving you orders,
you fool.

We're trying to save
your bloody life.

Give me a moment.

You know what, General,
I'm curious...

about your friend Aldo.

Why did you shut down
his team, Skuad Komodo?

He was a good man,

but he went too far.

Abductions,
extra-judicial killings,

turning your military
into a death squad.

Yeah, I could see how
that could make life difficult.

But you stripped them all
of their ranks,

court marshaled
every last one of them

except for one man.

Why keep Aldo on as Colonel?

I thought it would
make him loyal.

Everything all right?

Yeah, just thinking.

If you hadn't have
stopped those men.

You can't play "what if."

Yes, you can.
Everyone does.

What if you had a different job?

What if you didn't have
to do the things you do?

What if you stop worrying?

Trust us.

The General's men will be here
in 15 minutes.

Then we'll be gone.

You risked your life for him

even though he threatened
to have you locked up.

Yeah, well, that's definitely
part of the job.

Risking your life for dickheads.

You joke about it,

but there's not many
like you left, Sergeant.

15 minutes?

Yeah, then we're gone.

They have lost four men already.

Still within
acceptable parameters.

Aldo has sent in his Captain,

but Pavel, you need me in there.

20 see you as a traitor.

They will kill you on sight.

Remember the first week
of Alpha Group?

They taught us Ivan Ilyin,

Russian spirit.

I told you, no Russian.

And be careful.

That one.

That one is mine.

Watch out, guys!

Shit.

Hey, don't!

Step away.

Step away!

Let's go, come on.

Oh, you son of a bitch.

Hassan's coming with me.

Don't you Americans
ever get tired

of telling the rest
of the world how to behave?

Honestly, yeah.

Maybe you should quit, then.

You know...

between you and me...

I've seriously been
considering it.

Please...

walk away.

Can't do that.

Don't even try it.

Drop it.

Thank you.

Well...

I think I should be the one
saying "thank you."

Just for a second there,

I thought we were somebody else.

Somewhere else.

Yeah.

Sooner or later, though...

got to get back to work.

I know.

Hang in there.

Your men will be here
any moment.

Move.
It's only Dewanto I want.

God, you're not working
for Aldo as well, are you?

Nyet.

Pavel is coming.

Run.

Boss, we need to get
the fuck out of here.

Another dead person

who can't confirm your story?

You're accusing Russia

of using deep cover agents

to attempt to assassinate
foreign dignitaries?

Not accusations.

Just facts.

I'll check point.

Get your hands off me.

Look, if my Sergeant
says to move...

we're moving.

Boss?

Get down!

- You hit?
- Yeah.

Get eyes on the tango.

Moving.

Shit.

I warned Dewanto...

over and over again.

Men like Hassan
will come back to haunt us.

Yeah, but you facilitated it.

Along with the Russians.

One of Hassan's bombs
wiped away 13 of our men

over a decade-and-a-half ago.

How can we forgive that?

Even jail was an insult
to their memory.

Colonel, I get it.

You look at men like Dewanto,
you look at your government...

allowing Hassan
to walk free under what?

The guise of, uh...
of rehabilitation?

You ask yourself,

"What was it all for?"

But trust me,
you cannot save your country

by selling it out.

Then you're just a puppet
for the Russians,

and everything you have...

your ports, your resources,
your gas, your oil,

hell, even your army...
it's all theirs.

And that's worse than anything
Dewanto ever did.

Hell, even Hassan was loyal
to his own.

But Colonel, you ask me?

You're not even fit
for the uniform.

Come on.

Gracie!

We can still talk about this.

You wanna talk?

Where the hell is Chetri?

Do you know what this is?

It's a remote transmitter.

Unfortunately, it was damaged

in the fight with
Sergeant Wyatt.

I tried to repair it but, uh...

it needs someone
with more expertise.

I wouldn't...

Hmm?

I wouldn't know where to start.

Oh, please.

You broke out
of a Russian safe house.

You modified my data leecher

to steal intel from a drug lord.

You are very capable.

Much more than I could ever be.

What...

is it for?

It always helps
to have a "plan B."

Why have a bomb...

if it won't go off?

I warned you,
I'm loyal to my country.

This is loyalty?

A bloody nuke?

It was never meant
to be detonated.

Bullshit.

The Indonesian Colonel
takes down Hassan

and shows the nuke as evidence
of how weak the government is.

Yeah, I get it.

It's all a shitty power grab.

Was it worth
the death of your team?

I was there, remember?
I saw what he did to you.

Don't come any closer.

I have this under control.

Don't come any closer!

I didn't need to do that!

Yeah, all right.

How about I write you
a "thank you" card?

Pavel, please.

Think about what you're doing.

I know exactly what I am doing.

Death toll, fallout,
blast radius...

which, by the way,
we are outside.

I mean, it's not
Lesnitsky's plan,

but, you know...

fuck Lesnitsky.

I won't be a part of this.

All of this is only happening
because 20 got in the way.

No one will know...

if you help me.

You can walk away.

I'll know.

Okay.

I tried polite.

Now we do the other way.

It's the transistor, isn't it?

It's broken loose.

Ah.

Always the small things.

Pavel, don't.

Wanna talk?

Where is she?

Don't make me do this.

I doubt you were told
to take me alive.

One of us is going
to have to follow orders.

Not always.

Not if they're wrong.

Oh, fuck it.

I'm tired.

I don't even know
what I'm fighting for anymore.

My team deserved better
than this.

Check it, check it.
Go, go, go.

Bring it over here.

- It's counting down.
- But I don't understand.

He... he said
it couldn't be armed.

160 seconds to detonation.

Uh, okay.

I'm gonna let you
take the lead on this.

Bloody spaghetti junction.

Okay, what have we got here?

There's tampers,
firing currents, reflectors.

The junction box,
explosive lens.

One minute 30.

There's no time
to trace each wire.

Hey!

Wait, wait, wait.

You two working together, or...?

- Nuke is primed.
- What?

- Minute 30.
- Uh, minute 25.

He gets it's an estimate.

You got firing currents,
you got a junction box...

Yeah, we know the parts, Wyatt.

Best option
is to trace a wire and cut it.

Yeah, all right, but which wire?

There's splitters,
and there's intersections here.

Uh, it'd be an educated guess.

- That's the best you got?
- I stress the word "educated."

I don't think
we should touch the wires.

Why not?

Because this is
a Gopan Laghari design,

and I think if we cut one wire,
no matter which one...

It'll detonate anyway.

Exactly.

All right, so what are we doing?

Okay, so it's not easy
to set off a nuclear device.

It's why you need experts.

So I think if we...
if we shoot the bomb,

it will not detonate.

I'm sorry, you're saying
"shoot the bomb"?

No, okay, so to stop
the detonation process

we need to stop the timers,

so we need to target
the countdown battery.

Except there's some
tamper-proof shit in the way.

Which is why
a bullet might work.

So you are saying
shoot the bomb!

As I explained, shooting it

will most likely not set it off.

I am not comfortable
putting a live round

into a thermonuclear device.

Just saying.
40 seconds.

A precise shot could damage
the power supply, but...

"Most likely" and "could"

are not phrases
I'm comfortable with.

Okay, yeah, yeah.
What was your plan again.

All right, fuck it.
Let's shoot the bomb.

- Where's the battery?
- It's the casing on the left.

No, it's over here on the right

with the supply wire.

No, no, no...

I know what I'm fucking
talking about.

- Are you sure?
- Yes.

I... I mean, there's margin
for error, of course.

30 seconds.

Yes or no?

Yes.

Good enough for me.

Nothing happened.

I mean, that's a good thing,
right?

Yeah, unless we just damaged
the display

and the actual countdown
is still going.

Well, we've got 20 seconds
to find out.

It's probably a good time
to tell you

that if we get out
of this alive,

I'm kinda done with this life.

There's my last words.

This is not Russia,
and this is not me.

And I know where Chetri is.

Fucking asshole.

Three... two...

Is everyone okay?

Define "okay," sir.

Hassan is dead.

The nuke got primed to blow.

But don't worry, I shot it.

S-sorry, you shot it?

- Did that work?
- No, Mac, it didn't.

It went off.

You didn't hear it?

Wow, to think I was worried
about you dickheads.

Wait, where's Chetri?

Zarkova.

She said she knew where she was
and I let her go.

And why the hell
didn't you go with her?

I had to make a choice, sir.

She was afraid of what Pavel
might do to Chetri

if he saw me.

It's okay, I'm here to help you.

It's okay.

No, it's not.

You have no idea
what he's gonna do.

Pavel?

Katrina.

I'm thinking you have
finally chosen a side.

You were willing to kill me.

I'm willing to do
what needs to be done.

Pavel, listen to me.

Whatever you are planning to do,

you don't need to do this.

We can still go home.

Hello?

Hello?

What about Zarkova?

Where do you think
her loyalties lie?

- With her country.
- You sure of that?

I think she's a good soldier
that's had a lot

of very difficult decisions
to make.

Sounds like someone
who has a crush.

That's the second time
you've done that.

The first was when you said
I had "an arrogance."

Barely worth noticing,
but twice now.

It's your sentence construction.

It's almost like someone
who's learned English

as a second language.

Why am I here?

Who are you, really?

You're being absurd.

One last time:
Who are you?

Alexander!

Alexander.

They... they wanted
to find out about Pavel

to corroborate my story.

And who is "they"?

Alpha Group? FSB?

Let's just say...

this goes higher up than that.

They think that Pavel is trying
to force the West and Russia

into a war
that neither side can avoid.

And the feeling is that 20

might be best placed
to stop him.

I'm sorry, it's been a long day.

Let me just get this straight:

Russia's asking for our help?

Yes.

We are.

Welcome to Moscow, Colonel.
