2
00:00:15,750 --> 00:00:17,552
Blue team, stay sharp.

3
00:00:17,585 --> 00:00:19,754
Let's give
the Ukrainians a leg up.

4
00:00:26,694 --> 00:00:29,263
MAJORS: Bombs on target.
Return to base.

5
00:00:29,296 --> 00:00:32,032
BLUE THREE: Love to see
that Russian junk burn.

6
00:00:33,535 --> 00:00:35,402
Where the hell
did that thing come from?

7
00:00:35,435 --> 00:00:37,237
-I don't see anything!
-MAJOR: Bandit, breaking 09:00.

8
00:00:38,506 --> 00:00:42,175
MAJORS: Negative radar on
bandit, I'm only painting us.

9
00:00:43,511 --> 00:00:45,647
BLUE THREE:
Man, this guy's a Fantom!

10
00:00:48,783 --> 00:00:50,585
MAJORS:
Deploying countermeasures.

THOMAS: If Senator Burke is
a definite no vote,

14
00:02:33,420 --> 00:02:34,856
then we're going
to have to get both Gordon

15
00:02:34,889 --> 00:02:36,624
and Hathaway on board.
If not,

16
00:02:36,658 --> 00:02:39,794
we can kiss
the F/A-X jet funding goodbye.

17
00:02:39,827 --> 00:02:42,362
See if you can set up dinner
with either tonight

18
00:02:42,396 --> 00:02:45,667
or breakfast tomorrow
just as soon as possible.

19
00:02:45,700 --> 00:02:47,935
And pull up last week's
defense budget reports.

20
00:02:47,969 --> 00:02:49,937
You know they'll both ask.

21
00:02:49,971 --> 00:02:52,406
Right, let's get this done.

22
00:03:08,255 --> 00:03:10,357
Jesus, Zach.

23
00:03:16,764 --> 00:03:18,800
Emily, call the White House
and let them know

24
00:03:18,833 --> 00:03:20,835
I'll be coming over.
I want a meeting

25
00:03:20,868 --> 00:03:22,503
with the president
as soon as possible.

26
00:03:22,537 --> 00:03:25,006
Tell them
it's national security related.

27
00:03:25,039 --> 00:03:27,407
Have the Secret Service
bring the car around.

28
00:03:34,882 --> 00:03:36,551
AGENT:
Vice President Thomas,

29
00:03:36,584 --> 00:03:37,852
the President will see you
in the library.

30
00:03:37,885 --> 00:03:39,419
-Rick.
-Mr. President.

31
00:03:39,453 --> 00:03:41,288
Excellent timing.

32
00:03:41,321 --> 00:03:43,423
I was gonna call you later.

33
00:03:43,457 --> 00:03:44,992
I'd like to discuss
the shootdown

34
00:03:45,026 --> 00:03:46,928
on the Volunteer Flight
in Ukraine yesterday.

35
00:03:46,961 --> 00:03:48,763
-I'm listening.
-They were lost

36
00:03:48,796 --> 00:03:51,465
under highly unusual
circumstances.

37
00:03:51,498 --> 00:03:54,635
The Russians have no effective
anti-aircraft at the front,

38
00:03:54,669 --> 00:03:57,404
and there were
no enemy radar contacts.

39
00:03:57,437 --> 00:03:59,540
These were superb pilots, sir.

40
00:03:59,574 --> 00:04:01,809
Top aviators
from all over the world.

41
00:04:01,843 --> 00:04:03,945
Their skipper flew
under me in the Navy.

42
00:04:03,978 --> 00:04:06,413
Guy was a legend.
Not an easy kill.

43
00:04:06,446 --> 00:04:10,383
Yet we have no idea what
took him and his pilots down.

44
00:04:10,417 --> 00:04:12,019
But the Pentagon is
looking into it.

45
00:04:12,053 --> 00:04:16,423
Sir, we both know Pentagon intel
moves at a snail's pace.

46
00:04:16,456 --> 00:04:19,060
If the Russians are
developing new capabilities,

47
00:04:19,093 --> 00:04:20,695
then we need to figure out
what they are

48
00:04:20,728 --> 00:04:22,029
and move to counter.

49
00:04:22,063 --> 00:04:23,564
Well, the second
I know something,

50
00:04:23,598 --> 00:04:25,066
so will you,
but we've got

51
00:04:25,099 --> 00:04:26,734
bigger things
in front of us right now.

52
00:04:26,768 --> 00:04:28,836
We're hosting
a peace summit here in DC.

53
00:04:28,870 --> 00:04:30,470
And the Russians want
to negotiate

54
00:04:30,505 --> 00:04:33,040
a peace settlement
in Ukraine.

55
00:04:33,074 --> 00:04:36,376
Well, if that's true, it's
only because they're losing.

56
00:04:36,409 --> 00:04:39,814
They're stalling, sir, trying
to buy time to maneuver in.

57
00:04:39,847 --> 00:04:42,650
-When is this happening?
-Talks begin tomorrow.

58
00:04:42,683 --> 00:04:44,351
President Vasiliev was serious

59
00:04:44,384 --> 00:04:46,788
about getting something done.
And so am I.

60
00:04:46,821 --> 00:04:48,890
What do the Ukrainians say?
Are they on board?

61
00:04:48,923 --> 00:04:50,958
They'll go along
with whatever we decide.

62
00:04:50,992 --> 00:04:53,360
-What makes you so sure?
-Well, they've suffered

63
00:04:53,393 --> 00:04:54,896
terrible losses
and hardships.

64
00:04:54,929 --> 00:04:57,330
They want this conflict over
more than anyone.

65
00:04:57,364 --> 00:04:59,499
At the cost
of their sovereignty?

66
00:04:59,534 --> 00:05:01,334
The very thing
they've been fighting for?

67
00:05:01,368 --> 00:05:02,937
They've held the Russians
back, but only just.

68
00:05:02,970 --> 00:05:04,437
And look at
how many lives it's cost.

69
00:05:04,471 --> 00:05:06,073
Civilian as well as military.

70
00:05:06,107 --> 00:05:08,810
Sir, that's exactly my point.

71
00:05:08,843 --> 00:05:11,078
When a war is focused
as much on civilian

72
00:05:11,112 --> 00:05:12,980
as it is military targets,

73
00:05:13,014 --> 00:05:15,448
it loses all claim
to legitimacy.

74
00:05:15,482 --> 00:05:16,984
As do its perpetrators.

75
00:05:17,018 --> 00:05:19,352
They should not
be negotiated with.

76
00:05:19,386 --> 00:05:21,454
And what happens
when this conflict ends?

77
00:05:21,488 --> 00:05:23,724
Or it expands,
spins out of control

78
00:05:23,758 --> 00:05:26,393
across all of Europe?
How many lives will it cost

79
00:05:26,426 --> 00:05:28,663
to fight a third world war?
I'm asking you.

80
00:05:28,696 --> 00:05:31,766
Sir, now is not the time
to cut a deal.

81
00:05:31,799 --> 00:05:34,401
When the F/A-X
fighter program comes online

82
00:05:34,434 --> 00:05:37,004
in a few months,
we'll be negotiating

83
00:05:37,038 --> 00:05:39,406
from a position
of much greater strength.

84
00:05:39,439 --> 00:05:42,475
We don't have the votes

85
00:05:42,510 --> 00:05:44,645
to keep your wonder-jet funded.
I'm sorry.

86
00:05:44,679 --> 00:05:49,416
Because our party refuses
to prioritize national defense.

87
00:05:49,449 --> 00:05:51,384
I...
[sighing]

88
00:05:51,418 --> 00:05:54,021
Jeremiah, you could help
change minds on that.

89
00:05:54,055 --> 00:05:55,857
But I'm out there all alone.

90
00:05:58,059 --> 00:06:00,061
We don't need
another billion dollar

91
00:06:00,094 --> 00:06:02,830
weapon system, Rick.
We have a real chance here

92
00:06:02,864 --> 00:06:04,999
to broker a lasting peace.

93
00:06:06,634 --> 00:06:11,038
If everybody gets on board,
this can happen. Okay?

94
00:06:16,811 --> 00:06:18,980
I hope I can count on you.

95
00:06:19,013 --> 00:06:22,683
Of course,
Mr. President, of course.

96
00:06:30,591 --> 00:06:34,662
-What're you doing?
-Coding software.

97
00:06:34,695 --> 00:06:36,931
To do what?

98
00:06:36,964 --> 00:06:40,467
Triangulate vector headings
and intercept points.

99
00:06:40,501 --> 00:06:42,536
-Who needs that?
-Oh, you know,

100
00:06:42,570 --> 00:06:47,074
just competent
naval aviators, so, yeah,

101
00:06:47,108 --> 00:06:49,210
I can see how that
wouldn't interest you.

102
00:06:49,243 --> 00:06:51,913
[chuckling]
Officer on deck.

103
00:06:54,081 --> 00:06:56,017
At ease.
Seats.

104
00:06:57,218 --> 00:06:59,120
Today we resume test flights
of the F/A-X

105
00:06:59,153 --> 00:07:00,821
supersonic stealth fighter.

106
00:07:00,855 --> 00:07:03,024
After last week's
successful altitude tests,

107
00:07:03,057 --> 00:07:06,527
today we'll be testing ACM
and 1V1 dogfights.

108
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:09,964
Now, this exercise has
a hard deck of 10,000 feet

109
00:07:09,997 --> 00:07:13,000
and a hard ceiling
of 40,000 feet.

110
00:07:13,034 --> 00:07:15,770
Maximum speed is sub-Mach one.

111
00:07:15,803 --> 00:07:17,204
Any questions?

112
00:07:19,507 --> 00:07:21,474
Then man up,
and let's get 'em in the air.

113
00:07:25,780 --> 00:07:28,481
CAG: Footloose, Firefly.
You're up first.

114
00:07:28,516 --> 00:07:31,752
-Firefly, you're the aggressor.
-Roger that, sir.

115
00:07:38,726 --> 00:07:40,861
FOOTLOOSE:
Damn, these things can move.

116
00:07:44,899 --> 00:07:47,501
-Target lock.
-Like hell.

117
00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:54,675
-[beeping]
-FIREFLY: Damn it.

118
00:08:01,315 --> 00:08:05,619
Controls are sticking,
I'm still climbing!

119
00:08:05,653 --> 00:08:07,688
CAG: Knock it off.
Footloose, you have exceeded

120
00:08:07,722 --> 00:08:10,224
40,000 feet
and broke the hard ceiling.

121
00:08:11,959 --> 00:08:13,894
FOOTLOOSE: Shit.

122
00:08:13,928 --> 00:08:15,930
Lieutenant, your performance
today is rated cut.

123
00:08:15,963 --> 00:08:17,631
What did you think
you were doing up there?

124
00:08:17,665 --> 00:08:19,533
Trying to perform
the exercises ordered, sir.

125
00:08:19,567 --> 00:08:21,002
Evading target lock.

126
00:08:21,035 --> 00:08:23,604
By exceeding
the designated hard ceiling?

127
00:08:23,637 --> 00:08:25,006
It was an accident, sir.

128
00:08:25,039 --> 00:08:26,907
Rapid ascent is
a common evasive tactic,

129
00:08:26,941 --> 00:08:28,843
-and real fights tend to--
-Lieutenant?

130
00:08:28,876 --> 00:08:30,978
It doesn't matter.
Today's results

131
00:08:31,012 --> 00:08:33,247
have to be scrapped,
and now we're a day behind,

132
00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:35,282
which I have to explain
to my superiors

133
00:08:35,316 --> 00:08:37,184
who aren't gonna forgive me
on account of my famous

134
00:08:37,218 --> 00:08:38,986
ace sibling,
because I don't have

135
00:08:39,020 --> 00:08:40,821
one of those
to keep bailing me out.

136
00:08:40,855 --> 00:08:43,958
You're off F/A-X tests
for the duration.

137
00:08:43,991 --> 00:08:45,259
Sir, please.

138
00:08:45,292 --> 00:08:47,695
Take your licks, Lieutenant.

139
00:08:47,728 --> 00:08:50,197
Consider yourself lucky
to be flying at all.

140
00:08:50,231 --> 00:08:52,733
If I had my druthers,
you'd be grounded permanently.

141
00:08:52,767 --> 00:08:54,702
MAN ON INTERCOM:
<i>Now hear this. Now hear this.</i>

142
00:08:54,735 --> 00:08:56,203
<i>Lieutenant Adam Majors,</i>

143
00:08:56,237 --> 00:08:58,305
<i>report</i>
<i>to the communications room.</i>

144
00:08:59,907 --> 00:09:01,609
Saved by the bell, Lieutenant.

145
00:09:01,642 --> 00:09:04,178
Once again, dismissed.

146
00:09:23,764 --> 00:09:27,001
-Majors.
-Footloose.

147
00:09:27,034 --> 00:09:28,669
Defender.

148
00:09:28,702 --> 00:09:30,204
What a pleasant surprise.

149
00:09:30,237 --> 00:09:32,273
How are you?

150
00:09:32,306 --> 00:09:34,775
Unpopular as ever
with the law and order types.

151
00:09:34,809 --> 00:09:37,678
Ever considered the military
wasn't the place for you?

152
00:09:37,711 --> 00:09:39,647
No, sir.
They're the ones

153
00:09:39,680 --> 00:09:41,782
with the fighter jets
for me to fly.

154
00:09:41,816 --> 00:09:43,284
How's the plane?

155
00:09:43,317 --> 00:09:45,953
Most maneuverable aircraft
I've ever flown.

156
00:09:45,986 --> 00:09:48,222
Viable to be
our next-generation fighter?

157
00:09:48,255 --> 00:09:50,191
No question, yes.

158
00:09:50,224 --> 00:09:53,761
Good. There may be
a lot riding on it.

159
00:09:53,794 --> 00:09:57,665
Is that why you called?
To check up on the plane?

160
00:09:57,698 --> 00:10:00,000
It's not, I'm afraid.

161
00:10:01,235 --> 00:10:02,803
What's going on?

162
00:10:02,837 --> 00:10:06,273
Zach was killed.
Shot down over Ukraine.

163
00:10:08,209 --> 00:10:10,744
Nobody could shoot
my brother down.

164
00:10:10,778 --> 00:10:12,780
How'd it happen?

165
00:10:12,813 --> 00:10:14,915
Zach and his squad had
successfully carried out

166
00:10:14,949 --> 00:10:17,284
a strike on the Russians'
communication hub

167
00:10:17,318 --> 00:10:19,987
and were returning to base.

168
00:10:20,020 --> 00:10:25,226
Somewhere on the way,
they were intercepted.

169
00:10:25,259 --> 00:10:27,428
The whole Volunteer Flight
was wiped out.

170
00:10:27,461 --> 00:10:31,132
By what?
We aren't sure.

171
00:10:31,165 --> 00:10:33,701
What do you mean,
you "aren't sure"?

172
00:10:33,734 --> 00:10:35,903
There were
no enemy radar contacts

173
00:10:35,936 --> 00:10:38,706
in the area,
and Zach's squad had

174
00:10:38,739 --> 00:10:41,041
taken out the only
Russian ground forces.

175
00:10:41,075 --> 00:10:43,010
Did they report
coming under attack?

176
00:10:43,043 --> 00:10:46,247
Their communications were jammed
just before they went down.

177
00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:48,682
Well, then the Russians had
something else in the area.

178
00:10:48,716 --> 00:10:50,751
You must have some idea what.

179
00:10:50,784 --> 00:10:53,220
We're looking into it.

180
00:10:53,254 --> 00:10:55,823
I wish I had
more information to give you,

181
00:10:55,856 --> 00:10:58,225
but I don't right now.

182
00:10:58,259 --> 00:11:00,861
I just wanted you to hear
the news from me first.

183
00:11:02,463 --> 00:11:05,399
I'm sorry.
If there's anything I can do...

184
00:11:05,432 --> 00:11:07,268
There is.

185
00:11:07,301 --> 00:11:09,770
Find out who
and what killed him.

186
00:11:26,287 --> 00:11:28,355
Hey, Footloose.

187
00:11:28,389 --> 00:11:30,791
What's up? The guys said
you got some official call.

188
00:11:32,259 --> 00:11:34,261
Zach's dead.

189
00:11:34,295 --> 00:11:36,230
I am so sorry.

190
00:11:38,432 --> 00:11:42,870
-How?
-Killed in action.

191
00:11:42,903 --> 00:11:45,339
In action? Where?

192
00:11:45,372 --> 00:11:49,043
In Ukraine.
He volunteered.

193
00:11:49,076 --> 00:11:50,444
Jesus.

194
00:11:53,314 --> 00:11:55,349
Is there anything
that I can do?

195
00:11:55,382 --> 00:11:57,284
No.

196
00:11:57,318 --> 00:11:59,386
No-- hey, wait.

197
00:11:59,420 --> 00:12:03,157
I want to... help you.

198

-Yes.
- <i>This is Condor.</i>

204
00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:49,903
-What's your favorite opera?
- <i>I much prefer ballet.</i>

205
00:12:49,937 --> 00:12:52,339
You've been out of touch.

206
00:12:52,373 --> 00:12:54,308
<i>Under scrutiny.</i>
<i>I shouldn't be calling now,</i>

207
00:12:54,341 --> 00:12:56,977
<i>but I have news.</i>
<i>We need to meet.</i>

208
00:12:57,011 --> 00:12:58,580
If you're under scrutiny,
that doesn't seem like

209
00:12:58,613 --> 00:13:01,382
a good idea; you should
leave whatever you have

210
00:13:01,415 --> 00:13:03,484
in a dead drop,
and I'll retrieve it from you.

211
00:13:03,518 --> 00:13:05,819
CONDOR: <i>I am not leaving</i>
<i>this evidence at a drop.</i>

212
00:13:05,853 --> 00:13:07,589
<i>It can be traced to me</i>
<i>if found.</i>

213
00:13:07,622 --> 00:13:09,990
<i>I'll give it</i>
<i>directly to you or nobody.</i>

214
00:13:10,024 --> 00:13:12,860
All right.
Fili Park tomorrow at--

215
00:13:12,893 --> 00:13:14,428
<i>Not tomorrow. Today.</i>

216
00:13:14,461 --> 00:13:16,964
<i>This cannot wait.</i>
<i>Thirty minutes from now.</i>

217
00:13:16,997 --> 00:13:19,033
No, I'll pick the time.

218
00:13:19,066 --> 00:13:20,834
My Chief of Station
won't sign off

219
00:13:20,868 --> 00:13:22,903
-on the meeting if I--
- <i>I do not care.</i>

220
00:13:22,936 --> 00:13:25,573
<i>This is not piddling trivia</i>
<i>I have to offer.</i>

221
00:13:25,607 --> 00:13:28,942
If this is so urgent,
then tell me now.

222
00:13:28,976 --> 00:13:31,178
<i>You know as well as I,</i>
<i>there is no such thing</i>

223
00:13:31,211 --> 00:13:33,180
<i>as a secure line</i>
<i>in Moscow.</i>

224
00:13:33,213 --> 00:13:34,848
<i>This must be face to face.</i>

225
00:13:34,882 --> 00:13:37,217
<i>And time is</i>
<i>of the essence.</i>

226
00:13:37,251 --> 00:13:40,421
-Don't be followed.
- <i>Don't be late.</i>

227
00:14:00,974 --> 00:14:04,445
-Been a while.
-It has been hard to get away.

228
00:14:04,478 --> 00:14:06,280
I was promoted.

229
00:14:06,313 --> 00:14:08,382
-Congratulations.
-Yeah.

230
00:14:08,415 --> 00:14:10,184
I have great access now.

231
00:14:10,217 --> 00:14:12,554
But I'm under
increased scrutiny.

232
00:14:12,587 --> 00:14:14,388
I must be more careful.

233
00:14:14,421 --> 00:14:16,256
Reach out
only when it matters.

234
00:14:22,930 --> 00:14:26,266
A coup is being hatched inside
Russian military intelligence.

235
00:14:26,300 --> 00:14:27,968
Elements within the GRU

236
00:14:28,001 --> 00:14:31,506
intend to assassinate
President Vasiliev.

237
00:14:31,539 --> 00:14:33,641
There's not much we can do
to meaningly interfere

238
00:14:33,675 --> 00:14:35,409
in your internal disagreements.

239
00:14:35,442 --> 00:14:37,244
You haven't heard it all yet.

240
00:14:37,277 --> 00:14:39,179
The plan is
to assassinate Vasiliev

241
00:14:39,213 --> 00:14:41,281
on U.S. soil and implicate
your government

242
00:14:41,315 --> 00:14:43,651
-in his death.
-For what purpose?

243
00:14:43,685 --> 00:14:46,153
To spike a wider war
between NATO and Russia.

244
00:14:46,186 --> 00:14:47,522
That's the last thing
that Russian

245
00:14:47,555 --> 00:14:49,189
military intelligence
should want.

246
00:14:49,223 --> 00:14:50,991
Yeah, I understand that
perfectly well.

247
00:14:51,024 --> 00:14:53,427
But the GRU has become

248
00:14:53,460 --> 00:14:57,331
the personal fiefdom
of one Aleksandr Borovsk.

249
00:14:57,364 --> 00:14:59,233
-The Defense Minister?
-An ideologue

250
00:14:59,266 --> 00:15:01,268
of the hard-line
nationalist type.

251
00:15:01,301 --> 00:15:03,137
He coerced Vasiliev

252
00:15:03,170 --> 00:15:06,039
into a rushed secret military
rearmament program.

253
00:15:06,073 --> 00:15:08,375
He believes Russia can defeat
the U.S. and NATO.

254
00:15:08,409 --> 00:15:10,377
He means to seize power

255
00:15:10,411 --> 00:15:13,347
and wield his new military.

256
00:15:13,380 --> 00:15:15,349
You ought to warn Vasiliev,
not me.

257
00:15:15,382 --> 00:15:18,285
No, no, no, no, no.
This is up to you.

258
00:15:18,318 --> 00:15:21,723
I cannot be perceived
as Vasiliev's informant.

259
00:15:21,756 --> 00:15:23,390
-[silenced shot]
-Hey!

260
00:15:38,573 --> 00:15:40,608
This is Artemis calling
for the Chief of Station.

261
00:15:40,642 --> 00:15:42,242
Met with Condor.

262
00:15:42,276 --> 00:15:43,977
A rogue element
in the GRU is trying

263
00:15:44,011 --> 00:15:46,480
to kill Vasiliev
at the summit in Washington.

264
00:15:46,514 --> 00:15:50,083
Chief, do you copy?
We need to let Washington know.

265
00:15:51,485 --> 00:15:52,953
Shit.

266
00:16:17,144 --> 00:16:19,112
Hey.

267
00:16:19,146 --> 00:16:20,615
Brought your favorite
from the galley.

268
00:16:20,648 --> 00:16:23,150
-[chuckles]
-It's a donut.

269
00:16:29,323 --> 00:16:32,426
And if there's anything else
that I can do...

270
00:16:32,459 --> 00:16:35,597
Just...
stay here with me.

271
00:16:38,499 --> 00:16:39,734
Copy that.

272
00:16:43,103 --> 00:16:45,172
I'm going to take this.

273
00:16:47,542 --> 00:16:49,042
Thanks.

274
00:16:51,579 --> 00:16:53,213
[sighs]

275
00:16:54,549 --> 00:16:57,384
We don't have to talk.

276
00:16:57,417 --> 00:17:00,555
But if you want to talk...

277
00:17:00,588 --> 00:17:01,623
I'm just...

278
00:17:03,257 --> 00:17:05,560
...spinning.

279
00:17:05,593 --> 00:17:09,196
Scared that somehow
I willed this to happen.

280
00:17:09,229 --> 00:17:10,464
Zach's death?

281
00:17:11,633 --> 00:17:14,468
I always lived in his shadow.

282
00:17:14,502 --> 00:17:16,671
I hoped someday
I wouldn't, but...

283
00:17:18,372 --> 00:17:20,608
I never wanted it
to happen like this.

284
00:17:20,642 --> 00:17:24,478
Adam Majors, you are
not doing this to yourself.

285
00:17:24,512 --> 00:17:26,079
You loved Zach.
I could hear it

286
00:17:26,113 --> 00:17:27,749
every time
you talked about him.

287
00:17:30,585 --> 00:17:32,319
But you're not
feeling anything

288
00:17:32,352 --> 00:17:34,288
that most younger siblings
haven't felt,

289
00:17:34,321 --> 00:17:38,358
and survivors,
they always carry guilt.

290
00:17:40,360 --> 00:17:43,397
You need
to give yourself a break.

291
00:17:43,430 --> 00:17:47,602
And know that you don't live
underneath anybody's shadow.

292
00:17:49,269 --> 00:17:51,405
Everyone in this air group
sees you.

293
00:17:51,438 --> 00:17:53,775
You earned those wings.
You earned your place here.

294
00:17:56,310 --> 00:17:58,111
You've even...

295
00:17:58,145 --> 00:18:00,314
even earned my respect.
[chuckles]

296
00:18:02,650 --> 00:18:04,251
I have?

297
00:18:04,284 --> 00:18:08,155
Yeah, well, grudgingly.

298
00:18:10,592 --> 00:18:12,594
I mean, you are the most

299
00:18:12,627 --> 00:18:13,861
gifted pilot
I have ever seen, so...

300
00:18:13,895 --> 00:18:15,362
[scoffs] Yeah, well.

301
00:18:15,395 --> 00:18:18,131
-Tell CAG that.
-Oh, he knows.

302
00:18:18,165 --> 00:18:21,168
Why do you think
he hates you so much?

303
00:18:21,201 --> 00:18:23,103
[both chuckle]

304
00:18:32,947 --> 00:18:34,481
Wait. Wait, wait.

305
00:18:36,483 --> 00:18:38,553
I...

306
00:18:38,586 --> 00:18:40,454
I-I'm sorry, I just...

307
00:18:40,487 --> 00:18:42,189
I can't do this right now.

308
00:18:42,222 --> 00:18:43,625
I get it.

309
00:18:46,193 --> 00:18:48,462
I'm going
to give you some space.

310
00:18:48,495 --> 00:18:50,297
No.

311
00:18:50,330 --> 00:18:52,432
Please.

312
00:18:52,466 --> 00:18:53,801
Just...

313
00:18:55,369 --> 00:18:57,304
Be here with me.

314
00:18:59,741 --> 00:19:00,908
Please?

315
00:19:04,512 --> 00:19:06,480
Shot?

316
00:19:06,514 --> 00:19:09,784
-Want one?
-Yes.

00:19:13,253 --> 00:19:14,756
<i>rose to power</i>
<i>after a violent election</i>

320
00:19:14,789 --> 00:19:16,924
<i>that saw</i>
<i>dozens of Russians killed.</i>

321
00:19:16,958 --> 00:19:19,359
<i>But the skirmishes did</i>
<i>not end after the election,</i>

322
00:19:19,393 --> 00:19:21,696
<i>making an age of heightened</i>
<i>military defense in Russia</i>

323
00:19:21,729 --> 00:19:24,464
<i>and the surrounding countries</i>
<i>not seen since the Cold War.</i>

324
00:19:24,498 --> 00:19:27,635
<i>Many attempts at talks both</i>
<i>from NATO and the United States</i>

325
00:19:27,669 --> 00:19:30,705
<i>were made to President Morozov,</i>
<i>who refused to acknowledge them</i>

326
00:19:30,738 --> 00:19:32,940
<i>especially those</i>
<i>coming from capitalist nations.</i>

327
00:19:32,974 --> 00:19:36,309
<i>President Morozov instead</i>
<i>wanted to expand his power.</i>

328
00:19:36,343 --> 00:19:38,780
<i>He first looked to Ukraine</i>
<i>where border disputes</i>

329
00:19:38,813 --> 00:19:41,949
<i>between the two countries</i>
<i>escalated into a brutal war</i>

330
00:19:41,983 --> 00:19:44,384
<i>resulting in thousands</i>
<i>of deaths on both sides.</i>

331
00:19:44,418 --> 00:19:46,754
<i>The United States and NATO</i>
<i>realized they could no longer</i>

332
00:19:46,788 --> 00:19:49,423
<i>stay off the sidelines</i>
<i>and offered help to those</i>

333
00:19:49,456 --> 00:19:51,526
<i>who wanted a better future</i>
<i>for their country.</i>

334
00:19:51,559 --> 00:19:53,961
<i>As Russians tired</i>
<i>of the old regime rose up,</i>

335
00:19:53,995 --> 00:19:56,831
<i>the United States offered</i>
<i>weapons and resources including</i>

336
00:19:56,864 --> 00:19:58,800
<i>state-of-the-art tanks</i>
<i>to battle against those</i>

337
00:19:58,833 --> 00:20:01,334
<i>already in the current</i>
<i>Russian regime's possession.</i>

338
00:20:01,368 --> 00:20:04,404
<i>Soon Morozov and his regime</i>
<i>found themselves</i>

339
00:20:04,438 --> 00:20:07,008
<i>not only fighting Ukrainian</i>
<i>rebels but Russian ones,</i>

340
00:20:07,041 --> 00:20:10,377
<i>led by Russian freedom fighter</i>
<i>Gennady Vasiliev.</i>

341
00:20:10,410 --> 00:20:13,014
<i>After months of fighting,</i>
<i>the war turned mostly away from</i>

342
00:20:13,047 --> 00:20:15,850
<i>Ukraine and became a Russian</i>
<i>civil war between the old regim</i>

343
00:20:15,883 --> 00:20:18,686
<i>and those who demanded peace</i>
<i>for the war-torn country.</i>

344
00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:21,022
<i>But the fighting in Russia</i>
<i>turned extremely violent,</i>

345
00:20:21,055 --> 00:20:23,791
<i>with sometimes whole city block</i>
<i>and small towns</i>

346
00:20:23,825 --> 00:20:26,994
<i>decimated by Morozov's regime.</i>

347
00:20:27,028 --> 00:20:29,731
<i>Vasiliev and his rebels</i>
<i>would not give in to Morozov,</i>

348
00:20:29,764 --> 00:20:31,599
<i>often meeting the regime</i>
<i>in the streets and countryside</i>

349
00:20:31,632 --> 00:20:33,366
<i>to battle,</i>
<i>refusing to give up.</i>

350
00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:35,368
<i>But Morozov</i>
<i>only escalated the attacks</i>

351
00:20:35,402 --> 00:20:37,337
<i>destroying countless</i>
<i>populated areas</i>

352
00:20:37,370 --> 00:20:39,372
<i>in an effort</i>
<i>to show his immense power.</i>

353
00:20:39,406 --> 00:20:42,510
<i>Vasiliev continued to fight bac</i>
<i>as more and more Russians</i>

354
00:20:42,543 --> 00:20:44,311
<i>joined the rebels</i>
<i>against their attacks</i>

355
00:20:44,344 --> 00:20:46,413
<i>and left their homes</i>
<i>and families decimated,</i>

356
00:20:46,446 --> 00:20:48,616
<i>wanting a better future</i>
<i>for their children</i>

357
00:20:48,649 --> 00:20:50,551
<i>and generations</i>
<i>of Russians to come.</i>

358
00:20:50,585 --> 00:20:52,419
<i>With continued help</i>
<i>from the United States,</i>

359
00:20:52,452 --> 00:20:54,522
<i>the old regime was</i>
<i>finally toppled.</i>

360
00:20:54,555 --> 00:20:56,824
<i>With many of their tanks</i>
<i>and other weapons destroyed,</i>

361
00:20:56,858 --> 00:20:59,727
<i>a new era of history</i>
<i>for the storied country began,</i>

362
00:20:59,761 --> 00:21:03,396
<i>one etched</i>
<i>in true democracy for Russia</i>

363
00:21:03,430 --> 00:21:06,500
<i>as elections naming</i>
<i>new leader President Vasiliev</i>

364
00:21:06,534 --> 00:21:09,737
<i>were the most successful</i>
<i>in Russia's history.</i>

365
00:21:09,771 --> 00:21:11,471
<i>Although some cells</i>
<i>of the old regime are</i>

366
00:21:11,506 --> 00:21:13,941
<i>still in hiding,</i>
<i>newly-elected President Vasilie</i>

367
00:21:13,975 --> 00:21:16,811
<i>has assured NATO that</i>
<i>he has made it his top priority</i>

368
00:21:16,844 --> 00:21:18,980
<i>to eradicate them,</i>
<i>to keep this new</i>

369
00:21:19,013 --> 00:21:21,783
<i>Russia era</i>
<i>of democracy alive.</i>

370
00:21:23,584 --> 00:21:25,452
<i>Today, President Stewart</i>

371
00:21:25,485 --> 00:21:27,588
<i>welcomes President Vasiliev</i>
<i>to the White House</i>

372
00:21:27,622 --> 00:21:30,024
<i>where a peace accord will be</i>
<i>signed by the two leaders,</i>

373
00:21:30,057 --> 00:21:32,392
<i>signaling a new era</i>
<i>of peace, friendship,</i>

374
00:21:32,425 --> 00:21:34,762
<i>and understanding</i>
<i>between our two nations.</i>

375
00:21:41,102 --> 00:21:44,972
I implore you, Mr. President,
before it's too late.

376
00:21:46,641 --> 00:21:48,042
It is too late.

377
00:21:48,075 --> 00:21:50,678
Nothing has
been discussed or signed.

378
00:21:50,711 --> 00:21:52,947
Russia can retake Ukraine.

379
00:21:52,980 --> 00:21:56,684
We possess the greatest
stealth fighter ever built.

380
00:21:56,717 --> 00:21:59,452
You can recapture
the strategic initiative.

381
00:21:59,486 --> 00:22:02,557
We cannot fight
a conventional war with NATO.

382
00:22:02,590 --> 00:22:05,526
Sooner or later
we or they start to lose,

383
00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:08,361
and when that happens,
nuclear weapons get employed.

384
00:22:09,630 --> 00:22:12,700
It doesn't matter who wins
if we all die.

385
00:22:12,733 --> 00:22:15,670
We could roll
our tanks over Europe,

386
00:22:15,703 --> 00:22:18,139
cross the Atlantic,
and kick in their front door.

387
00:22:18,172 --> 00:22:20,541
The west would never
initiate nuclear strike.

388
00:22:20,575 --> 00:22:21,809
They lack the will.

389
00:22:21,843 --> 00:22:23,711
I cannot bet

390
00:22:23,744 --> 00:22:28,516
the sovereignty of Russia
on such a whim.

391
00:22:28,549 --> 00:22:33,420
This peace is the one thing
we have left for our nation.

392
00:22:33,453 --> 00:22:35,056
So stand behind it.

393
00:22:35,089 --> 00:22:38,159
Any sign of disunity
will not serve.

394
00:22:38,192 --> 00:22:40,561
[speaking Russian]

395
00:22:41,829 --> 00:22:43,965
Yes, Mr. President.

396
00:22:47,768 --> 00:22:50,437
[panting]

397
00:22:53,641 --> 00:22:55,109
Shit.

398
00:23:03,885 --> 00:23:07,088
[speaking Russian]

399
00:23:26,908 --> 00:23:29,043
President Vasiliev,
welcome.

400
00:23:29,076 --> 00:23:31,112
We'll get the opening press
conference ready shortly

401
00:23:31,145 --> 00:23:33,047
in the press room.
Welcome, gentlemen.

402
00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:35,683
Thank you for this gracious
invitation to your capitol.

403
00:23:35,716 --> 00:23:37,450
It is your openness
to diplomacy

404
00:23:37,484 --> 00:23:39,186
that has made
this day possible.

405
00:23:39,220 --> 00:23:42,890
I wish our security service
to sweep the area.

406
00:23:42,924 --> 00:23:45,159
Ah, it won't be open
to the public,

407
00:23:45,192 --> 00:23:47,128
just credentialed press.

408
00:23:47,161 --> 00:23:51,565
Mr. Borovsk, we're guests
at another home. You know that.

409
00:23:51,599 --> 00:23:54,135
I'm only concerned
for your safety, Mr. President,

410
00:23:54,168 --> 00:23:55,970
because
you are hope and future

411
00:23:56,003 --> 00:23:57,571
of the Russian federation.

412
00:23:57,605 --> 00:23:59,607
He has a point, Mr. President.

413
00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:02,243
Agent Miller,
anyone interested in inspecting

414
00:24:02,276 --> 00:24:04,912
the press room, let them
to their complete satisfaction.

415
00:24:04,946 --> 00:24:07,081
Right this way.

416
00:24:07,114 --> 00:24:09,650
After you,
Mr. President, please.

417
00:24:17,525 --> 00:24:18,859
Knock yourself out.

418
00:24:32,773 --> 00:24:34,942
Restroom?

419
00:24:34,976 --> 00:24:36,177
Right this way.

420
00:25:26,227 --> 00:25:27,895
All good.

421
00:26:51,745 --> 00:26:53,114
[murmurs] Jesus Christ.

422
00:27:02,823 --> 00:27:05,059
This doesn't make any sense.

423
00:28:09,356 --> 00:28:12,126
Pick up, pick up, pick up.

424
00:28:12,159 --> 00:28:16,830
Many thanks to my new friend,
President Jeremiah Stewart.

425
00:28:16,864 --> 00:28:18,999
Your kind welcome is
appreciated,

426
00:28:19,033 --> 00:28:21,835
and it bodes well for
a more productive relationship

427
00:28:21,869 --> 00:28:23,804
between our two nations.

428
00:28:23,837 --> 00:28:26,040
[phone rings]

429
00:28:31,111 --> 00:28:33,914
-Hello? Can you hear me?
-Ronnie? Not a good time.

430
00:28:33,948 --> 00:28:36,116
<i>No time.</i>
<i>The GRU is going to assassinate</i>

431
00:28:36,150 --> 00:28:38,219
<i>President Vasiliev</i>
<i>at the summit.</i>

432
00:28:38,252 --> 00:28:41,956
<i>They've recruited a Ukrainian</i>
<i>national named Ihor Melnyk.</i>

<i>Grabbed his wife</i>

<i>to eastern Europe</i>
<i>to hold as leverage.</i>

435
00:28:46,060 --> 00:28:47,761
Look, they're going
to make the attempt

436
00:28:47,795 --> 00:28:50,331
on Vasiliev's life
at a press event.

437

-Live press event?
-Melnyk is

a Washington correspondent

We need to stop this!

-Pull the president now!
-[silenced gunshots]

-Are you okay?
-Yeah.

443
00:29:06,313 --> 00:29:07,314
We need to leave at once.

[calls out in Russian]

445
00:29:16,824 --> 00:29:18,526
Rick, are you all right?

446
00:29:18,560 --> 00:29:20,227
I am, sir.

447
00:29:20,261 --> 00:29:22,129
Is Vasiliev all right?

448
00:29:22,162 --> 00:29:26,100
-Alive and unhurt.
-Thank God.

449
00:29:26,133 --> 00:29:29,169
Now, how did anybody
get past White House security?

450
00:29:29,203 --> 00:29:32,006
With valid
press credentials, sir.

451
00:29:32,039 --> 00:29:34,441
He was a Ukrainian
journalist forced into it

452
00:29:34,475 --> 00:29:37,211
under threat by
Russian military intelligence.

453
00:29:37,244 --> 00:29:39,813
What are you getting at?

454
00:29:39,847 --> 00:29:41,949
[sighs]
A contact I have in the CIA

455
00:29:41,982 --> 00:29:43,984
called at
the last minute with intel.

456
00:29:44,018 --> 00:29:46,320
You have personal
operatives in the CIA?

457
00:29:46,353 --> 00:29:48,455
Oh, it's not like that, sir.

458
00:29:48,489 --> 00:29:50,257
An old friend reached out.

459
00:29:50,291 --> 00:29:53,327
Mr. President,
the complex is secure.

460
00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:55,296
What's the condition
of the assassin?

461
00:29:55,329 --> 00:29:57,464
Is he able
to answer any questions yet?

462
00:29:59,133 --> 00:30:02,303
The assassin died
of gun wounds, Mr. President.

463
00:30:02,336 --> 00:30:05,873
Sir, you have
my sincerest apologies.

464
00:30:05,906 --> 00:30:07,441
If you'd like, my resignation
will be in your desk--

465
00:30:07,474 --> 00:30:08,909
Knock it off, Mike.
I'm not at leisure

466
00:30:08,942 --> 00:30:09,977
to replace you today.

467
00:30:11,345 --> 00:30:13,947
Your friend of the CIA claims
Russian intelligence

468
00:30:13,981 --> 00:30:16,317
-is behind this.
-That's right.

469
00:30:16,350 --> 00:30:18,385
Then we need to talk
to Vasiliev right away.

470
00:30:18,419 --> 00:30:20,020
Get to the bottom
of this right now.

471
00:30:20,054 --> 00:30:22,356
Vasiliev is gone.
The Russian diplomatic

472
00:30:22,389 --> 00:30:24,458
entourage, they left.

473
00:30:24,491 --> 00:30:27,027
-They left?
-And in a hurry,

474
00:30:27,061 --> 00:30:29,263
at the insistence
of Minister Borovsk.

475
00:30:31,131 --> 00:30:33,367
[sighs]
Son of a bitch.

476
00:30:39,607 --> 00:30:41,875
<i>Da, da,</i>
fly directly to Moscow

477
00:30:41,909 --> 00:30:44,978
and let them know
that we're safe, we're unharmed.

478
00:30:45,012 --> 00:30:49,149
Yes, and get me the FSB director
Chernigov on line.

479
00:30:49,183 --> 00:30:53,153
What do you require
of Director Chernigov?

480
00:30:55,356 --> 00:30:58,859
An investigation on attempt
on my life, of course.

481
00:31:00,394 --> 00:31:02,463
Whatever proxy
may have been employed,

482
00:31:02,496 --> 00:31:05,232
the United States is
most certainly to blame.

483
00:31:05,265 --> 00:31:06,601
[speaking Russian]

484
00:31:06,634 --> 00:31:09,136
President Stewart...

485
00:31:09,169 --> 00:31:13,040
he staked his political
reputation on this summit.

486
00:31:13,073 --> 00:31:15,510
The culprit,
I'm sorry to say...

487
00:31:16,678 --> 00:31:19,980
must be
somewhere closer to home.

488
00:31:20,013 --> 00:31:21,683
A lot closer.

489
00:31:21,716 --> 00:31:23,551
And that's where
we have to look.

490
00:31:28,255 --> 00:31:29,490
Hello?

491
00:31:31,125 --> 00:31:32,159
<i>Da.</i>

492
00:31:35,295 --> 00:31:36,430
[speaking Russian]

493
00:31:37,665 --> 00:31:39,933
[gun clicks]

494
00:31:39,967 --> 00:31:41,301
[speaking Russian]

495
00:31:54,448 --> 00:31:56,250
I regret to inform you

496
00:31:56,283 --> 00:31:57,652
that President Vasiliev
is dead.

497
00:31:57,685 --> 00:31:59,654
He succumbed
to a bullet wound

498
00:31:59,687 --> 00:32:01,556
inflicted earlier today

499
00:32:01,589 --> 00:32:04,425
by a U.S.-sponsored assassin.

500
00:32:04,458 --> 00:32:06,960
I, Aleksandr
Borosovich Borovsk,

501
00:32:06,994 --> 00:32:08,929
am assuming the presidency.

502
00:32:13,735 --> 00:32:17,271
A vacancy has opened up
in my old office.

503
00:32:17,304 --> 00:32:20,107
Would you like to serve as--
as my Minister of Defense?

504
00:32:20,140 --> 00:32:22,976
Okay, let me know
when you can.

505
00:32:23,010 --> 00:32:24,546
We can't reach Vasiliev.

506
00:32:24,579 --> 00:32:26,246
The Russian presidential
line is open,

507
00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:27,749
but they're giving us
a runaround.

508
00:32:27,782 --> 00:32:29,751
Mr. President.

509
00:32:29,784 --> 00:32:30,752
What is it?

510
00:32:30,785 --> 00:32:33,353
You gotta see this.

511
00:32:33,387 --> 00:32:35,122
While Russia's struggles

512
00:32:35,155 --> 00:32:39,059
is against
all western oppression,

513
00:32:39,092 --> 00:32:41,596
the greatest threat
to our safety

514
00:32:41,629 --> 00:32:43,497
remains the United States.

515
00:32:43,531 --> 00:32:47,234
It is to America that I,

516
00:32:47,267 --> 00:32:52,072
the President of the Russian
Federation, address myself.

517
00:32:52,105 --> 00:32:54,007
Borovsk is president?

518
00:32:55,309 --> 00:32:57,177
You said Vasiliev was fine.

519
00:32:57,211 --> 00:32:59,547
He was the last time
I saw and talked to him.

520
00:32:59,581 --> 00:33:02,049
Vasiliev walked off
under his own power.

521
00:33:02,082 --> 00:33:04,251
He was shaken, but he was fine.

522
00:33:04,284 --> 00:33:07,722
And now, your murder
of our president

523
00:33:07,755 --> 00:33:11,458
while on a diplomatic visit.

524
00:33:11,492 --> 00:33:12,660
Excuse me.

525
00:33:15,262 --> 00:33:17,231
<i>For your armed interference</i>

526
00:33:17,264 --> 00:33:19,366
<i>in our historic</i>
<i>revolution,</i>

527
00:33:19,399 --> 00:33:22,169
<i>your slander and sabotage</i>

528
00:33:22,202 --> 00:33:24,539
<i>of the Soviet endeavor,</i>

529
00:33:25,840 --> 00:33:29,644
I vow that you,
America, will pay.

530
00:33:31,345 --> 00:33:33,380
Vasiliev is dead.

531
00:33:33,413 --> 00:33:35,650
And I think we're listening
to the guy who did it.

532
00:33:39,754 --> 00:33:42,155
Does this mean
what I think it means?

533
00:33:44,358 --> 00:33:45,793
Looks like it.

534
00:33:48,563 --> 00:33:50,565
[sighs]

535
00:33:50,598 --> 00:33:52,567
That sounded like
a declaration of war.

536
00:33:52,600 --> 00:33:55,670
We need to get in touch
with Borovsk right now.

537
00:33:55,703 --> 00:33:57,371
I don't think
he'll prove a viable partner

538
00:33:57,404 --> 00:33:58,740
for negotiations, sir.

539
00:33:58,773 --> 00:34:00,207
Then we need to get in touch

540
00:34:00,240 --> 00:34:01,743
with somebody who will.

541
00:34:01,776 --> 00:34:03,477
Can you get me the state
department on the phone?

542
00:34:05,245 --> 00:34:06,280
Mr. President...

543
00:34:07,715 --> 00:34:09,751
I've been instructed
to escort you

544
00:34:09,784 --> 00:34:12,219
to a safe location
away from the Vice President.

545
00:34:12,252 --> 00:34:15,322
Agent Miller,
I will not be escorted anywhere.

546
00:34:15,355 --> 00:34:17,257
Mr. President,
protocol dictates--

547
00:34:17,291 --> 00:34:19,259
Protocol dictates that,
as president,

548
00:34:19,293 --> 00:34:22,195
I represent our nation's
talks with foreign countries,

549
00:34:22,229 --> 00:34:24,832
and act as commander in chief
during a war.

550
00:34:24,866 --> 00:34:26,634
This is a war.

551
00:34:26,668 --> 00:34:28,636
I need my people near me
in all times.

552
00:34:28,670 --> 00:34:30,437
Thomas is a decorated veteran

553
00:34:30,470 --> 00:34:32,372
and will be at my side
until I say otherwise.

554
00:34:32,406 --> 00:34:34,241
-Do you understand?
-Yes, sir.

555
00:34:34,274 --> 00:34:36,176
We're gonna call
our top people

556
00:34:36,209 --> 00:34:37,377
who deal with Russia.

557
00:34:37,411 --> 00:34:38,746
Anybody with any connections

558
00:34:38,780 --> 00:34:41,448
to their military
or their political life.

559
00:34:41,481 --> 00:34:43,317
Let's find someone
in the Russian government

560
00:34:43,350 --> 00:34:45,319
- [phone ringing]
- to talk to keep the situation

561
00:34:45,352 --> 00:34:46,453
from spinning
out of control any further.

562
00:34:46,486 --> 00:34:48,255
Are you with me, guys?

563
00:34:48,288 --> 00:34:49,757
Excuse me,
I have to take this.

564
00:34:58,265 --> 00:34:59,366
VACHS: Are you all right?

565
00:34:59,399 --> 00:35:01,268
THOMAS: <i>Yeah, I'm okay.</i>

566
00:35:01,301 --> 00:35:03,571
<i>How about yourself?</i>
<i>What's your situation?</i>

567
00:35:03,605 --> 00:35:06,841
Going to ground
with a GRU agents in pursuit.

568
00:35:06,874 --> 00:35:08,843
They've got the U.S. embassy
too heavily striked

569
00:35:08,876 --> 00:35:10,678
for me to get near it,

570
00:35:10,712 --> 00:35:13,548
and they're jamming
all communications in and out.

571
00:35:13,581 --> 00:35:16,784
That's why I had to break
chain of command like this.

572
00:35:16,818 --> 00:35:20,454
Your number was the only
highly-ranked contact I had.

573
00:35:20,487 --> 00:35:21,656
<i>I'm glad you did.</i>

574
00:35:21,689 --> 00:35:23,691
<i>We've got a job for you.</i>

575
00:35:23,725 --> 00:35:25,860
-We?
<i>-POTUS and I.</i>

576
00:35:25,893 --> 00:35:27,795
<i>Reach out to every</i>
<i>Russian government higher-up</i>

577
00:35:27,829 --> 00:35:30,832
<i>-you have connection to.</i>
-About what?

578
00:35:30,865 --> 00:35:32,466
<i>We need allies with influence.</i>

579
00:35:32,499 --> 00:35:34,201
<i>Anyone in</i>
<i>the power structure</i>

580
00:35:34,234 --> 00:35:35,937
<i>who won't welcome</i>
<i>Borovsk's regime.</i>

581
00:35:35,970 --> 00:35:37,605
<i>We need to talk.</i>

582
00:35:37,639 --> 00:35:39,373
<i>Get this situation</i>
<i>under control</i>

583
00:35:39,406 --> 00:35:41,341
<i>before it blows up</i>
<i>into World War III.</i>

584
00:35:41,375 --> 00:35:44,812
Well, I might have a way
to get to Chernigov.

585
00:35:44,846 --> 00:35:46,848
<i>Director of Domestic Security?</i>

586
00:35:46,881 --> 00:35:49,550
-Yeah.
<i>-That's a start.</i>

587
00:35:49,584 --> 00:35:52,386
<i>The FSB has its fingers</i>
<i>in everything.</i>

588
00:35:52,419 --> 00:35:54,555
All right,
let me get to work.

589
00:35:54,589 --> 00:35:56,858
I'll be in touch.

590
00:35:56,891 --> 00:35:58,593
[sighs]

591
00:35:58,626 --> 00:36:00,327
[phone ringing]

592
00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:01,596
Yes.

593
00:36:01,629 --> 00:36:02,830
Send him in.

594
00:36:04,966 --> 00:36:07,935
Mr. President,
Mr. Vice President.

595
00:36:07,969 --> 00:36:10,738
-August.
-Secretary Strickland.

596
00:36:10,772 --> 00:36:12,573
An Air Force scout plane

597
00:36:12,607 --> 00:36:13,975
has spotted a Russian carrier

598
00:36:14,008 --> 00:36:15,576
in the North Atlantic,
the Ushakov,

599
00:36:15,610 --> 00:36:17,912
it's moving westbound
at high speed.

600
00:36:17,945 --> 00:36:19,714
Shortly after making the report,

601
00:36:19,747 --> 00:36:21,616
the scout plane
went radio silent

602
00:36:21,649 --> 00:36:23,551
and we lost radar.

603
00:36:23,584 --> 00:36:26,821
All indications suggest
that the plane has been downed.

604
00:36:28,288 --> 00:36:29,757
Okay,
what do you recommend?

605
00:36:29,791 --> 00:36:31,526
That we intercept
the Ushakov.

606
00:36:31,559 --> 00:36:33,293
Send the JFK.

607
00:36:33,326 --> 00:36:35,596
She's in the North Atlantic
already.

608
00:36:35,630 --> 00:36:37,632
Her air wing and pilots are
cream of the crop.

609
00:36:37,665 --> 00:36:39,567
If the Russians decide
to start something,

610
00:36:39,600 --> 00:36:40,968
they'll meet with our best.

611
00:36:41,002 --> 00:36:43,236
All right,
let's send the JFK.

612
00:36:43,270 --> 00:36:44,906
I'll dispatch orders.

613
00:36:44,939 --> 00:36:46,574
Mr. President,
would you like for me to set up

614
00:36:46,607 --> 00:36:48,543
the communications
equipment in the Oval?

615
00:36:48,576 --> 00:36:50,778
Oh, no, thank you, I prefer
to work here in the study.

616
00:36:50,812 --> 00:36:53,480
Too much of a museum in there,
I can't think.

617
00:36:53,514 --> 00:36:56,017
Understood,
and, sir...

618
00:36:56,050 --> 00:36:59,787
I recommend raising our defense
condition to DEFCON Three.

619
00:37:16,537 --> 00:37:18,706
-Hey.
-Hey.

620
00:37:18,740 --> 00:37:20,407
What are you doing?

621
00:37:20,440 --> 00:37:23,276
Upgrading the course
calculations program.

622
00:37:23,310 --> 00:37:25,278
And I made some
custom modifications

623
00:37:25,312 --> 00:37:28,583
I wanna have with me
if we get into it up there.

624
00:37:28,616 --> 00:37:30,718
You think we're getting into it?

625
00:37:30,752 --> 00:37:32,754
I think whatever happens,

626
00:37:32,787 --> 00:37:34,655
we're gonna need
all the help we can get.

627
00:37:36,524 --> 00:37:37,959
Is something up?

628
00:37:40,494 --> 00:37:42,462
I just wanted to say...

629
00:37:42,496 --> 00:37:43,865
I'm sorry.

630
00:37:43,898 --> 00:37:45,499
About what?

631
00:37:46,768 --> 00:37:48,569
About the other day,

632
00:37:48,603 --> 00:37:49,971
when we almost...

633
00:37:50,004 --> 00:37:51,672
Oh.

634
00:37:51,706 --> 00:37:54,876
I didn't mean to,
in any way,

635
00:37:54,909 --> 00:37:58,546
reject or denigrate
the idea that we--

636
00:37:58,579 --> 00:38:01,516
Hey, you were right.

637
00:38:01,549 --> 00:38:04,384
Of course, I don't--

638
00:38:04,417 --> 00:38:05,987
You're the best wingman
I've ever had.

639
00:38:07,789 --> 00:38:10,725
I mean, yeah.

640
00:38:10,758 --> 00:38:12,059
You, too.

641
00:38:12,093 --> 00:38:13,895
And you're my best friend.

642
00:38:13,928 --> 00:38:15,696
I mean--

643
00:38:15,730 --> 00:38:17,031
I am?

644
00:38:18,498 --> 00:38:20,001
Yeah.

645
00:38:20,034 --> 00:38:25,372
Because you are mine, too.

646
00:38:25,405 --> 00:38:27,374
I worry about
a wrench being thrown

647
00:38:27,407 --> 00:38:29,744
into those very delicate works.

648
00:38:29,777 --> 00:38:35,950
A wrench in the works
if us is us, that's--

649
00:38:35,983 --> 00:38:38,953
It's hard enough
to make decisions up there

650
00:38:38,986 --> 00:38:41,589
And if we were to...

651
00:38:42,790 --> 00:38:45,026
you know...

652
00:38:45,059 --> 00:38:47,595
I'd feel like
I need to protect you.

653
00:38:47,628 --> 00:38:49,597
I don't need protecting.

654
00:38:49,630 --> 00:38:51,799
I earned my wings, too.

655
00:38:51,833 --> 00:38:54,735
So, see? You don't even
have to worry about that.

656
00:38:54,769 --> 00:38:56,103

00:39:03,511 --> 00:39:05,378
You wanna to protect me?

660
00:39:05,412 --> 00:39:08,983
Let me finish upgrading
the system for the briefing.

661
00:39:10,751 --> 00:39:13,120
-Copy you.
-See you in there.

662
00:39:19,927 --> 00:39:21,863
VACHS: Hello, Yuri.
This is Artemis.

663
00:39:21,896 --> 00:39:23,865
Listen, it doesn't matter.

664
00:39:23,898 --> 00:39:25,933
I need something.

665
00:39:25,967 --> 00:39:28,401
Hello?

666
00:39:28,435 --> 00:39:31,939
Yuri? Shit.

00:39:31,973 --> 00:39:33,674
[exhales]

668
00:39:33,708 --> 00:39:36,476
Hello, Lieutenant Colonel
Yuri Balakin's voicemail,

669
00:39:36,510 --> 00:39:37,778
this is Artemis.

670
00:39:37,812 --> 00:39:39,446
If you don't wanna talk to me,

671
00:39:39,479 --> 00:39:41,148
I'll keep leaving
an incriminating voicemail

672
00:39:41,182 --> 00:39:43,416
on your state-issued phone

673
00:39:43,450 --> 00:39:46,020
about how you've been
selling secrets to the CIA.

674
00:39:46,053 --> 00:39:49,156
And if you want to avoid
dozens more of these messages,

675
00:39:49,190 --> 00:39:50,825
call me back.

676
00:39:52,793 --> 00:39:54,929
[phone ringing]

677
00:39:56,597 --> 00:39:58,666
Yes.

678
00:39:58,699 --> 00:40:00,433
Yes, I understand.

679
00:40:00,467 --> 00:40:02,570
Look, we need to meet.

680
00:40:02,603 --> 00:40:05,172
No, no,
I'm not after intel.

681
00:40:05,206 --> 00:40:06,774
I have it to share.

682
00:40:06,807 --> 00:40:08,609
Look, hot stuff,

683
00:40:08,643 --> 00:40:10,177
your superiors will be grateful.

684
00:40:10,211 --> 00:40:12,546
Chernigov himself
will be interested.

685
00:40:14,181 --> 00:40:15,750
Gorky Park.

686
00:40:15,783 --> 00:40:16,851
Near the sculpture garden.

687
00:40:16,884 --> 00:40:19,153
Today at 11:00 a.m.

688
00:40:19,186 --> 00:40:21,722
Then make the time.

689
00:40:21,756 --> 00:40:23,958
I don't care.

690
00:40:23,991 --> 00:40:26,193
11:00 a.m., be there.

691
00:40:26,227 --> 00:40:27,595
Don't be followed.

692
00:40:32,199 --> 00:40:34,068
As I'm sure you're all aware,

693
00:40:34,101 --> 00:40:36,103
we're no longer on a test
or a training mission.

694
00:40:37,772 --> 00:40:39,573
A Russian aircraft carrier
is on course

695
00:40:39,607 --> 00:40:42,143
for the eastern seaboard
of the United States.

696
00:40:42,176 --> 00:40:43,978
We've been ordered
to intercept.

697
00:40:44,011 --> 00:40:46,013
Do we know what kind
of air power they're packing?

698
00:40:46,047 --> 00:40:47,782
We don't.

699
00:40:47,815 --> 00:40:50,184
The Ushakov was only
recently put into service,

700
00:40:50,217 --> 00:40:52,820
apparently amid
a great deal of secrecy.

701
00:40:52,853 --> 00:40:56,657
Now, the most common Russian
carrier aircraft is the SU-33,

702
00:40:56,691 --> 00:40:59,527
a plane over which we have
a definite advantage.

703
00:40:59,560 --> 00:41:02,063
But we need to be alert 15
for the duration.

704
00:41:02,096 --> 00:41:04,231
That means you're in your gear
and ready at all times.

705
00:41:04,265 --> 00:41:06,133
If that alarm goes,
I need you inside

706
00:41:06,167 --> 00:41:08,903
the air in 15 minutes,
is that understood?

707
00:41:08,936 --> 00:41:10,805
-Yes, sir.
-Good.

708
00:41:10,838 --> 00:41:13,841
We'll keep a full squadron
of F/A-18s fueled and ready.

709
00:41:13,874 --> 00:41:15,810
I need you fueled
and ready to fly them.

710
00:41:15,843 --> 00:41:16,911
Understood?

711
00:41:16,944 --> 00:41:18,612
What about the F/A-Xs?

712
00:41:18,646 --> 00:41:21,549
You have a question,
Footloose?

713
00:41:21,582 --> 00:41:24,618
We've got half a dozen of
the best fighter jets ever built

714
00:41:24,652 --> 00:41:26,153
just sitting down in the hangar.

715
00:41:26,187 --> 00:41:27,755
If we have to go up
against the Russians,

716
00:41:27,788 --> 00:41:29,523
shouldn't we bring our best?

717
00:41:29,557 --> 00:41:32,660
The F/A-X is a wondrous
aircraft, Lieutenant,

718
00:41:32,693 --> 00:41:34,996
but it's classified
as experimental.

719
00:41:35,029 --> 00:41:37,298
It's not permitted
in frontline operations.

720
00:41:37,331 --> 00:41:39,266
What about
in a support role, sir?

721
00:41:39,300 --> 00:41:41,268
Support role?

722
00:41:41,302 --> 00:41:43,971
For example,
a combat air patrol.

723
00:41:44,005 --> 00:41:45,773
That's a support role.

724
00:41:45,806 --> 00:41:48,275
Whereby you could easily
keep a few F/A-Xs ready

725
00:41:48,309 --> 00:41:50,011
and in the air at all times.

726
00:41:50,044 --> 00:41:52,613
You know, I seem to recall

727
00:41:52,646 --> 00:41:55,282
that a certain pilot
rated for the F/A-X

728
00:41:55,316 --> 00:41:58,319
is up on combat air patrol
following this briefing.

729
00:41:58,352 --> 00:42:00,287
I believe
that's correct, sir.

730
00:42:00,321 --> 00:42:04,558
Maybe that pilot ought
to take up an F/A-X.

731
00:42:04,592 --> 00:42:06,560
Just to keep it in practice.

732
00:42:06,594 --> 00:42:08,095
Work the cobwebs out.

733
00:42:08,129 --> 00:42:10,131
It's a good idea, sir.

734
00:42:10,164 --> 00:42:12,566
-Sir?
-Yes, Firefly?

735
00:42:12,600 --> 00:42:15,036
I'd like to volunteer
to fly on that CAP.

736
00:42:15,069 --> 00:42:17,304
That all right with you,
Footloose?

737
00:42:17,338 --> 00:42:19,540
Wouldn't mind the company.

738
00:42:41,295 --> 00:42:44,665
You need to find out the status
of the carrier Ushakov.

739
00:42:56,877 --> 00:42:59,213
Proceeding on course.

740
00:42:59,246 --> 00:43:01,082
Distance to Washington D.C.?

741
00:43:02,883 --> 00:43:04,885
Seventeen hundred kilometers.

742
00:43:04,919 --> 00:43:07,221
Within striking range
of our planes.

743
00:43:07,254 --> 00:43:08,889
Get them in the air!

744
00:43:10,825 --> 00:43:14,261
We must hit the Americans now,
in the next few hours.

745
00:43:14,295 --> 00:43:18,065
Before their shock wears off
and NATO rouses itself.

746
00:43:21,001 --> 00:43:23,270
We'll attack the U.S. capital

747
00:43:23,304 --> 00:43:25,172
with our air fleet

748
00:43:25,206 --> 00:43:27,975
and cut the head of Yankee snake

749
00:43:28,008 --> 00:43:29,844
for all the world to see.

750
00:43:29,877 --> 00:43:33,914
There is U.S. vessel on course
to intercept Ushakov.

751
00:43:33,948 --> 00:43:37,852
An aircraft carrier,
the John F. Kennedy.

752
00:43:37,885 --> 00:43:39,720
Time to intercept?

753
00:43:42,089 --> 00:43:43,891
Two hours, give or take.

754
00:43:43,924 --> 00:43:47,394
More than enough time
to get our planes aloft.

755
00:43:47,428 --> 00:43:50,164
We can't just leave
U.S. carrier there,

756
00:43:50,197 --> 00:43:51,999
poised to attack
our own at any time.

757
00:43:54,034 --> 00:43:59,340
Give order to our air wing
to launch at once.

758
00:43:59,373 --> 00:44:01,175
Destroy the American carrier

759
00:44:01,208 --> 00:44:03,310
and then proceed
at maximum speed

760
00:44:03,344 --> 00:44:06,213
to Washington D.C.

If you're rated for the F/A-X,
I want you onto one!

771
00:44:41,248 --> 00:44:42,816
If we're under attack,

772
00:44:42,850 --> 00:44:43,918
I'm personally
authorizing their use!

773

CAP, closing
to intercept bogeys.

775

Bandits, bandits,
appear to be Russian!

I lost him!

777
00:45:04,471 --> 00:45:05,940
Bandits are impossible
to target.

FIREFLY: We're getting
our asses handed to us.

FOOTLOOSE:
Stay in the fight.

780

Think I'm getting an idea of
what it was that took down Zach.

781

FIREFLY: Enemy bandits are
making a run for the JFK.

Eagle's Perch, do you copy?

783
00:45:49,183 --> 00:45:51,885
Eagle's Perch,
do you copy?

784
00:45:57,925 --> 00:45:59,159
Understood.

785
00:45:59,193 --> 00:46:01,228
The JFK is under attack.

786
00:46:01,262 --> 00:46:03,864
It's an aerial assault
of about a dozen planes.

787
00:46:03,897 --> 00:46:06,066
-Russian?
-Without a doubt.

788
00:46:06,100 --> 00:46:08,002
They're most likely
sixth generation,

789
00:46:08,035 --> 00:46:10,170
which means they're not
giving off any radar signature.

790
00:46:10,204 --> 00:46:11,872
They're invisible.

00:46:11,905 --> 00:46:13,907
What's the status of the JFK?

792
00:46:13,941 --> 00:46:17,811
It's hard to determine while
they're still under attack.

793
00:46:17,845 --> 00:46:19,547
United States hasn't been
under attack like this

794
00:46:19,581 --> 00:46:23,450
in 80 years.
This is war.

795
00:46:23,484 --> 00:46:25,219
Sir, I recommend

796
00:46:25,252 --> 00:46:28,088
raising our Defense Condition
to DEFCON Two.

797
00:46:28,122 --> 00:46:29,957
Can Congress take a vote?

798
00:46:29,990 --> 00:46:31,593
I'd like a formal declaration.

799
00:46:31,626 --> 00:46:33,327
They ought to be able
to agree on that.

800
00:46:33,360 --> 00:46:35,362
If we're gonna send
the United States to war,

801
00:46:35,396 --> 00:46:36,964
I want it done correctly.

802
00:46:36,997 --> 00:46:38,832
In accordance
with the Constitution.

803
00:46:38,866 --> 00:46:40,968
Mr. President,
under the circumstances,

804
00:46:41,001 --> 00:46:42,436
I strongly recommend
moving the Vice President

805
00:46:42,469 --> 00:46:44,004
to a different location.

806
00:46:44,038 --> 00:46:47,141
-I concur.
-No.

807
00:46:53,147 --> 00:46:56,917
The American carrier's
flight deck has been destroyed.

808
00:46:56,950 --> 00:46:59,086
Superb!
Withdraw.

809
00:46:59,119 --> 00:47:01,021
I would not advise that yet.

810
00:47:01,055 --> 00:47:02,890
Some American planes
are still in the air

811
00:47:02,923 --> 00:47:04,191
and could pose a threat.

812
00:47:04,224 --> 00:47:05,627
Withdraw, withdraw.

813
00:47:05,660 --> 00:47:07,394
If the carrier is neutralized,

814
00:47:07,428 --> 00:47:10,964
let's not more risk
to lose our force.

815
00:47:10,998 --> 00:47:14,134
Order our planes to disengage
from their attack.

816
00:47:14,168 --> 00:47:17,204
Have them proceed
at top speed

817

-Mach three?
-Yep.

They're headed directly
towards Washington D.C.

851

If they were headed for land,
they'd head for Newfoundland.

852
00:49:36,778 --> 00:49:40,380
But if they're making
Mach three, then...

-something's going on.
-Like what?

854
00:49:45,118 --> 00:49:47,522
They're in pursuit
of the Russian jets.

00:49:47,555 --> 00:49:49,691
I've got negative
radar contact.

856
00:49:49,724 --> 00:49:52,426
No, no, no, the Russians
have achieved invisibility.

857
00:49:52,459 --> 00:49:55,429
We can't depend
on radar contact anymore.

858

A Russian air attack on
Washington may be imminent.

859
00:49:58,165 --> 00:50:00,100
Order an immediate
evacuation in the city.

860

Let's get as many people
as we can out of harm's way.

861
00:50:03,337 --> 00:50:05,740
Sir, all due respect,
but we should be focusing

862
00:50:05,773 --> 00:50:07,642
on defense,
not evacuation.

863
00:50:07,675 --> 00:50:10,344
I refuse to be the cause
of unnecessary American deaths.

864

Evacuate the city.

-Sir, I must...
-No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

Evacuate
the civilian population.

Get the Metro Police
and fire on it.

But we need
to put up air defense now.

875
00:50:41,241 --> 00:50:43,845
that the F/A-X sensor array
is capable of.

876
00:50:43,878 --> 00:50:45,647
I know how
they're communicating,

877
00:50:45,680 --> 00:50:48,516
-sending and receiving data.
-Your point?

878
00:50:48,550 --> 00:50:53,186
Their system is satellite-based
and therefore super vulnerable.

879
00:50:53,220 --> 00:50:54,822
I need a couple more minutes
of computing time,

880
00:50:54,856 --> 00:50:57,157
but I almost have
their comm satellite's

-They are.

They are maintaining

Okay.

Should we not have

There is no risk.

00:54:51,092 --> 00:54:55,428
Borovsk wields
the might of Russian states.

950
00:54:55,462 --> 00:54:57,698
You wield the FSB.

951
00:54:57,732 --> 00:54:59,867
At Borovsk's pleasure.

952
00:54:59,901 --> 00:55:01,468
You have the power

953
00:55:01,501 --> 00:55:03,037
and the resources
to bring him down.

954
00:55:03,070 --> 00:55:06,406
To stand against him in wartime
would be suicide.

955
00:55:06,439 --> 00:55:08,576
Borovsk means
to have you killed.

956
00:55:10,711 --> 00:55:12,412
Why do you say that?

957
00:55:13,581 --> 00:55:15,516
Take a look at your pocket.

958
00:55:16,751 --> 00:55:18,385
Just look at it.

959
00:55:19,954 --> 00:55:23,124
Do you really think Borovsk's
plot stops at Vasiliev?

960
00:55:23,157 --> 00:55:25,860
He wants to secure
absolute power.

961
00:55:27,394 --> 00:55:29,597
He won't let
the state security apparatus

962
00:55:29,630 --> 00:55:33,701
be controlled
by his hated archival.

963
00:55:35,837 --> 00:55:40,473
You may not be his last victim,
but you're certainly his next.

964
00:55:43,845 --> 00:55:45,680
If that's all true...

965
00:55:47,014 --> 00:55:49,617
there is nothing
you can do for me.

966
00:55:49,650 --> 00:55:52,553
The U.S. will support
whoever removes Borovsk.

967
00:55:54,956 --> 00:55:56,691
Support how?

968
00:55:56,724 --> 00:55:59,927
With weapons and money,

969
00:55:59,961 --> 00:56:03,396
advisors,
diplomatic concessions.

970
00:56:03,430 --> 00:56:06,701
You have no authority
to offer such things.

971
00:56:06,734 --> 00:56:09,604
I can. I do.

972
00:56:09,637 --> 00:56:12,405
I have the ear
of the American vice president.

973
00:56:12,439 --> 00:56:14,441
I answer directly to him.

974
00:56:15,710 --> 00:56:18,112
-To Richard Thomas?
-Yes, that's right.

975
00:56:18,145 --> 00:56:20,882
What if a coup such as
you propose should fail?

976
00:56:22,116 --> 00:56:24,518
What assurances
would be granted?

977
00:56:24,552 --> 00:56:26,954
What assurances are required?

978
00:56:29,090 --> 00:56:32,793
Self-extraction and asylum

979
00:56:32,827 --> 00:56:37,632
were a coup against Borovsk
to launch and not prevail.

980
00:56:37,665 --> 00:56:39,533
That can be arranged.

981
00:56:41,202 --> 00:56:43,170
I give you my word.

982
00:56:47,575 --> 00:56:50,077
If I have so much an inkling
you're bluffing me...

983
00:56:51,913 --> 00:56:55,950
your bones shall be interred

984
00:56:55,983 --> 00:56:58,418
in the Russian soil.

985
00:57:01,188 --> 00:57:03,456
So, do we have a deal?

986
00:57:17,171 --> 00:57:19,907
THOMAS: Executive Two
calling Footloose.

987
00:57:21,642 --> 00:57:24,178
Executive Two?
Former call sign Defender?

988
00:57:24,211 --> 00:57:25,846
Yes, is this Footloose?

989
00:57:25,880 --> 00:57:28,082
It is.
Good to hear your voice.

990
00:57:28,115 --> 00:57:30,084
What's your situation?

991
00:57:30,117 --> 00:57:33,020
Pursuing a dozen unfriendlies
at plus-Mach three

992
00:57:33,054 --> 00:57:35,122
on direct heading
to Washington, D.C.

993
00:57:35,156 --> 00:57:37,625
Can you describe
the unfriendlies?

994
00:57:37,658 --> 00:57:39,492
These are sixth generation
at least.

995
00:57:39,527 --> 00:57:41,228
They're fast,
radar invisible,

996
00:57:41,262 --> 00:57:43,931
and they move like nothing
I've ever seen born on wings.

997
00:57:43,965 --> 00:57:46,767
I think we found out
exactly what took down Zach.

998
00:57:46,801 --> 00:57:48,936
I have information
that might help.

999
00:57:50,104 --> 00:57:51,672
Who is that?

1000
00:57:51,706 --> 00:57:54,909
Call sign Firefly, sir.
Who are you?

1001
00:57:54,942 --> 00:57:57,111
Executive One, airman.

1002
00:57:57,144 --> 00:57:59,013
Oh.

1003
00:57:59,046 --> 00:58:01,282
-It's an honor, sir.
-Please continue.

1004
00:58:01,315 --> 00:58:03,050
The Russians are employing

1005
00:58:03,084 --> 00:58:05,186
free-space optical
communications.

1006
00:58:05,219 --> 00:58:07,154
What is that?

1007
00:58:07,188 --> 00:58:09,724
Every Russian plane
receives sensor data

1008
00:58:09,757 --> 00:58:11,025
from every other Russian plane,

1009
00:58:11,058 --> 00:58:13,227
probably navigational data
as well,

1010
00:58:13,260 --> 00:58:16,797
all beamed through laser bursts
from a satellite link.

1011
00:58:16,831 --> 00:58:18,632
Our engineers considered
something similar

1012
00:58:18,666 --> 00:58:20,801
for the F/A-X program,
but they decided against it

1013
00:58:20,835 --> 00:58:22,770
because it had
a glaring vulnerability.

1014
00:58:22,803 --> 00:58:24,638
All data runs
through a satellite.

1015
00:58:24,672 --> 00:58:26,707
And satellites can be taken out.

1016
00:58:26,741 --> 00:58:29,910
I've triangulated the Russian
comm satellite's coordinates

1017
00:58:29,944 --> 00:58:33,881
from its laser bursts
to and from the Russian planes.

1018
00:58:33,914 --> 00:58:36,183
I'm transmitting
those coordinates to you now.

1019
00:58:36,217 --> 00:58:39,320
Destroy that satellite,
you'll take out their comms.

1020
00:58:39,353 --> 00:58:42,556
Probably their sensors
and targeting as well.

1021
00:58:42,590 --> 00:58:45,760
I mean, it won't take 'em out,
but it'll shake 'em up.

1022
00:58:45,793 --> 00:58:47,895
We're standing by
to receive those coordinates.

1023
00:58:47,928 --> 00:58:50,097
How's your fuel, Footloose?

1024
00:58:50,131 --> 00:58:51,899
Closer to bingo
than I'd like, sir.

1025
00:58:51,932 --> 00:58:54,001
We've got about 30 minutes
left in the air,

1026
00:58:54,035 --> 00:58:55,803
less if we need to fight,

1027
00:58:55,836 --> 00:58:58,272
which is pretty much
guaranteed at this point.

1028
00:58:58,305 --> 00:58:59,974
Well, we're putting up
an air defense

1029
00:59:00,007 --> 00:59:01,709
so you'll have some
backup when you get here.

1030
00:59:01,742 --> 00:59:03,611
Grateful for the help.

1031
00:59:03,644 --> 00:59:06,147
We've received
the satellite coordinates, sir.

1032
00:59:06,180 --> 00:59:08,783
Missile strikes
on those coordinates, now.

1033
00:59:08,816 --> 00:59:13,220
Launch control, arrow on vector
seven-three-eight-zero-niner.

00:59:13,254 --> 00:59:15,256
[missile whooshing]

1035
00:59:33,908 --> 00:59:36,377
FIREFLY: The Russians blew
right through our air defense.

1036
00:59:36,410 --> 00:59:38,746
FOOTLOOSE:
We have to stop them now.

1037
00:59:38,779 --> 00:59:40,014
THOMAS:
What's the status of the missile

1038
00:59:40,047 --> 00:59:41,749
we launched at the satellite?

1039
00:59:41,782 --> 00:59:43,350
STRICKLAND:
Twenty-three seconds to impact.

1040
00:59:53,394 --> 00:59:56,063
THOMAS: Did we get it?

1041
00:59:56,097 --> 00:59:58,032
STRICKLAND: Negative.
Target remains.

1042
00:59:59,767 --> 01:00:03,871
Mr. President, I must insist
that we get you underground.

1043
01:00:03,904 --> 01:00:06,607
-I'm inclined to agree.
-I am as well.

1044
01:00:08,876 --> 01:00:11,345
All right.

1045
01:00:12,980 --> 01:00:14,849
Defender and Zuess
are en route.

1046
01:00:32,333 --> 01:00:34,735
I cut a deal
with Chernigov.

1047
01:00:34,768 --> 01:00:37,004
We have his full cooperation.

1048
01:00:37,037 --> 01:00:40,875
I'm going in with an FSB
assault team to get Borovsk.

1049
01:00:43,777 --> 01:00:45,279
THOMAS: <i>When are you moving out?</i>

1050
01:00:45,312 --> 01:00:46,413
Right now.

1051
01:01:15,376 --> 01:01:18,679
[explosion]

Mr. President!

-Sir.
-Sir, are you okay, sir?

1054
01:01:27,087 --> 01:01:28,989
He's alive
but he's unresponsive.

1055
01:01:29,023 --> 01:01:30,991
Jeremiah Stewart is
incapacitated.

1056
01:01:31,025 --> 01:01:33,694
Let's get him up.
Careful, careful.

1057
01:01:37,464 --> 01:01:38,832
Keep going.

1058
01:01:40,768 --> 01:01:42,136
We're gonna have to get you
sworn in as president.

1059
01:01:42,169 --> 01:01:44,205
I'll bear witness.

1060
01:01:49,443 --> 01:01:51,879
-Minister Volkov.
-Sir.

1061
01:01:53,314 --> 01:01:55,082
Show me how that work.

1062
01:01:55,115 --> 01:01:57,218
It's a nuclear briefcase.

1063
01:01:57,251 --> 01:02:00,020
Yes.
Bring it.

1064
01:02:00,054 --> 01:02:02,723
Open it up and turn it on.

1065
01:02:05,392 --> 01:02:07,761
Of course, Mr. President.

1066
01:02:15,069 --> 01:02:17,137
Raise your right hand.

1067
01:02:20,107 --> 01:02:22,810
I, Richard Philip Thomas,
do solemnly swear...

1068
01:02:22,843 --> 01:02:24,378
I, Richard Philip Thomas,

1069
01:02:24,411 --> 01:02:25,913
do solemnly swear...

1070

...to faithfully
execute the office

So help me God.

01:03:17,498 --> 01:03:19,534
To arm launch control,

the Minister of Defense
and the President,

1086
01:03:23,571 --> 01:03:26,240
must both enter
their personal codes.

Mr. President,
is this really necessary?

1090
01:03:43,057 --> 01:03:47,027
I want to know that our national
defenses are in readiness.

1091
01:03:47,061 --> 01:03:49,196
It's just...
it would be dangerous.

Danger is everywhere.

01:04:09,617 --> 01:04:13,087
must both scan their left hands.

I will not.

01:04:26,200 --> 01:04:28,102
I must firmly insist.

1099
01:04:29,069 --> 01:04:32,306
And I steadfastly decline.

01:05:12,212 --> 01:05:13,548
That's a terrible idea.

1109
01:05:13,581 --> 01:05:15,282
Most satellite
missile defense

1110
01:05:15,315 --> 01:05:17,151
is based
on long range attack.

1111
01:05:17,184 --> 01:05:19,621
If I can get in close,
I can get a shot through.

1112
01:05:19,654 --> 01:05:21,989
These planes aren't designed
to go into space.

1113
01:05:22,022 --> 01:05:25,426
Sure they are. Just aren't
designed to come back.

1114
01:05:27,995 --> 01:05:31,666
Mr. President, the Russians
have launched a nuclear attack.

1115
01:05:33,033 --> 01:05:35,537
Two thousand ballistic missiles
are currently inbound

1116
01:05:35,570 --> 01:05:38,640
at supersonic speeds
towards every major city.

1117
01:05:38,673 --> 01:05:40,542
Is this confirmed?

1118
01:05:40,575 --> 01:05:43,745
Satellites detected
the launch plumes.

1119
01:05:43,778 --> 01:05:46,648
NORAD picked up the telemetry
the moment the missiles went up.

1120
01:05:46,681 --> 01:05:49,082
It's confirmed.

1121
01:05:49,116 --> 01:05:51,018
How long?

1122
01:05:51,051 --> 01:05:52,720
Twenty-two minutes before
the first missile detonates,

1123
01:05:52,754 --> 01:05:54,488
and counting.

1124
01:05:54,522 --> 01:05:56,390
Is there something
we can do to stop it?

1125
01:05:56,423 --> 01:05:58,660
Sir, we have
no missile defense in place

1126
01:05:58,693 --> 01:06:00,461
that can take them all out.

1127
01:06:00,494 --> 01:06:04,131
Maybe we get a few here
and there, but 2,000?

1128
01:06:04,164 --> 01:06:06,467
Can the Russians call it back?

1129
01:06:06,500 --> 01:06:08,335
Sir, intel says
that the Russians

1130
01:06:08,368 --> 01:06:10,705
may have implemented
an experimental policy to where

1131
01:06:10,738 --> 01:06:13,173
all of their warheads
contain a self-destruct

1132
01:06:13,207 --> 01:06:16,143
as insurance against
poor command and control.

1133
01:06:16,176 --> 01:06:18,045
But I doubt
Borovsk walks this back.

1134
01:06:19,514 --> 01:06:21,181
So we need to act.

1135
01:06:21,215 --> 01:06:23,050
Per the predetermined response
to this scenario

1136
01:06:23,083 --> 01:06:26,086
under the Single Integrated
Operational Plan,

1137
01:06:26,119 --> 01:06:28,690
I'm issuing orders
for Major Attack Option A...

1138
01:06:28,723 --> 01:06:32,794
full retaliatory strike
against every military base

1139
01:06:32,827 --> 01:06:36,029
and urban center
in the Russian Federation.

1140

Mr. President,
we're at DEFCON One.

launched a nuclear strike.

1143
01:06:54,214 --> 01:06:56,651
I'm being told
it can be recalled from there.

1144
01:06:56,684 --> 01:06:59,219
A fairly newly-
implemented Russian policy

1145
01:06:59,253 --> 01:07:02,256
where missiles will
self-destruct if a code is sent.

1146
01:07:02,289 --> 01:07:04,993
You've got to get
to the launch controls.

- Sir?
- Not yet.

1151
01:07:29,551 --> 01:07:32,386
Sir, SIOP dictates
we have to respond.

1152
01:07:32,419 --> 01:07:33,788
You need to enter your codes.

1153
01:07:33,821 --> 01:07:36,558
I will not enter
my goddamn codes.

1154
01:07:36,591 --> 01:07:39,326
Not now and not ever,
if we can figure something out.

1155
01:07:39,359 --> 01:07:42,864
Launching our nukes
will not stop Borovsk.

1156

Sir, enter your Gold Code.

1157

If anybody can hear me, I've got
target lock on the satellite.

I'm taking the shot.

Russian warhead approaching.

1266
01:14:12,253 --> 01:14:14,188
Almost have it.

1267
01:14:14,221 --> 01:14:15,990
I've got target lock.

1268
01:14:18,726 --> 01:14:20,695
-Damn it!
-Footloose, are you all right?

1269
01:14:20,728 --> 01:14:21,996
I'm under attack.

1270
01:14:22,029 --> 01:14:23,664
Footloose, talk to me.

1271
01:14:32,239 --> 01:14:34,976
FOOTLOOSE: She did it!
They've lost comms!

1272
01:14:41,015 --> 01:14:43,718
For Zach, dick.

1273
01:14:45,853 --> 01:14:47,655
Whoo!

1274
01:14:47,688 --> 01:14:49,156
Footloose, are you all right?

1275
01:14:49,190 --> 01:14:51,225
Yes, sir, I am.

1276
01:14:53,194 --> 01:14:54,895
Re-acquiring the missile.

1277
01:14:56,564 --> 01:14:57,932
All right, he's back
on the pursuit course.

1278
01:14:57,965 --> 01:15:00,301
I've got target lock.

1279
01:15:00,334 --> 01:15:02,036
Missile in flight
and closing in

1280
01:15:02,069 --> 01:15:04,672
- on Russian warhead.
- Come on, Footloose.

1281
01:15:04,705 --> 01:15:06,974
FOOTLOOSE:
Come on, come on, come on.

1282
01:15:08,809 --> 01:15:11,545
-I got it!
-Yes! Yes!

1283
01:15:20,021 --> 01:15:23,190
[phone ringing]

1284
01:15:23,224 --> 01:15:27,294
This is President Chernigov
of the Russian Federation.

1285
01:15:27,328 --> 01:15:32,133
President Chernigov, it is
a pleasure to hear your voice.

1286
01:15:32,166 --> 01:15:34,668
I offer
an unconditional ceasefire,

1287
01:15:34,702 --> 01:15:36,170
effective immediately.

1288
01:15:37,605 --> 01:15:41,142
The United States
gladly accepts.

1289
01:15:41,175 --> 01:15:44,845
Is President Stewart...
all right?

1290
01:15:44,879 --> 01:15:47,581
We're still standing by.

1291
01:15:47,615 --> 01:15:51,018
You and he have conducted
more reasoned restraint

1292
01:15:51,052 --> 01:15:53,154
than I would have foreseen.

1293
01:15:53,187 --> 01:15:55,089
I thank you.

1294
01:15:55,122 --> 01:15:59,160
And I hope, despite deeply
unfortunate events of late,

1295
01:15:59,193 --> 01:16:03,330
we may continue the work begun
at Washington summit.

1296
01:16:03,364 --> 01:16:05,766
That is my hope as well.

1297
01:16:05,800 --> 01:16:08,035
Please, tell
President Stewart

1298
01:16:08,069 --> 01:16:10,304
that I wish him
swift recovery.

1299
01:16:10,337 --> 01:16:13,874
Actually, sir, you may be able
to tell him yourself.

1300
01:16:13,908 --> 01:16:16,277
One moment, Mr. President.

1301
01:16:16,310 --> 01:16:19,313
I don't know.
You look the part.

1302
01:16:19,346 --> 01:16:22,917
I have Russian President
Chernigov on the line.

1303
01:16:22,950 --> 01:16:24,785
We have a ceasefire, sir.

1304
01:16:24,819 --> 01:16:27,088
Yes.
President Stewart here.

1305
01:16:27,121 --> 01:16:30,291
Yeah, the Vice President
informed me just now.

1306
01:16:30,324 --> 01:16:33,127
We thank you, and we accept.

1307
01:16:33,160 --> 01:16:36,864
Good. I'll talk to you soon,
Mr. President.

1308
01:16:40,434 --> 01:16:43,404
Are you back, sir?

1309
01:16:43,437 --> 01:16:45,139
I am.

1310
01:16:45,172 --> 01:16:46,941
The doctors have signed off.

1311
01:16:50,044 --> 01:16:53,280
I'm told you steered us
through some choppy surf.

1312
01:16:55,716 --> 01:16:57,251
Did the best I could, sir.

1313
01:16:57,284 --> 01:16:58,919
And how'd you like it?

1314
01:16:58,953 --> 01:17:00,888
I'm glad you're back,
Mr. President.

1315
01:17:00,921 --> 01:17:03,257
Mm-hm.
Thank you.

1316
01:17:07,094 --> 01:17:09,730
-Hello.
-Hey.

1317
01:17:09,763 --> 01:17:12,032
Everything okay?

1318
01:17:12,066 --> 01:17:15,102
It is now, I think.

1319
01:17:15,136 --> 01:17:18,005
[chuckling]
How are you?

1320
01:17:18,038 --> 01:17:19,807
I'm just cleaning up.

1321
01:17:19,840 --> 01:17:22,376
Headed back to the embassy
to do a debrief soon.

1322
01:17:22,409 --> 01:17:25,946
I appreciated having someone
I could trust on the ground.

1323
01:17:25,980 --> 01:17:28,282
I'm grateful
I had you to call.

1324
01:17:28,315 --> 01:17:31,418
You ever get back to D.C.?

1325
01:17:31,452 --> 01:17:35,122
I'm in Langley,
when I'm back in the country.

1326
01:17:35,156 --> 01:17:38,359
Should be more,
now that my cover's blown.

1327
01:17:38,392 --> 01:17:41,128
Give me a call
when you get back.

1328
01:17:41,162 --> 01:17:42,897
Be nice to see your face.

1329
01:17:44,198 --> 01:17:45,799
All right.

1330
01:17:49,970 --> 01:17:52,039
I'm so glad to see you.

1331
01:17:53,340 --> 01:17:55,809
But I, but I thought...

1332
01:17:55,843 --> 01:17:57,845
Me too.

1333
01:17:59,213 --> 01:18:02,249
