05x10 - Head On

Post by bunniefuu »

Previously on SEAL Team...

Put the breach next to that door!

Keep hammering!

CLAY: Did you warn the GIGN

about any EOD hazards

in the building when you told 'em
where to put the wall charge?

There were no EOD hazards
in the building.

Are you sure he's so oblivious
to the mistake that he made?

CLAY: Could be he smells an ambush.

STELLA: You're not attacking
him. You're trying to help him.


CLAY: Yeah, by telling him
his head's so cracked


he nearly blew up his own team.

You're a prime candidate
for Breacher's Syndrome.

I encourage you to look now,

before the effects become disastrous.

Soon as the baby comes, I'm gonna ask

to take a family leave from Bravo.

- I think my water just broke.
- Hey, we're gonna get you

- to the hospital, okay?
- Okay.

Hey, Sonny, why don't you
go check in with Hannah

- and give our ears a break?
- I haven't touched base

with her since we spun up.

She doesn't know you're in the hospital?

SONNY: Being honest with Hannah

is courting disaster.

You publish this paper,

you are gonna start a shitstorm
that you want no part of.

Is it crazy to think that you and I

- could start something?
- RAY: I have known


Team guys that started nonprofits.

What's wrong?

I've just got a lot
on my plate right now.

- Okay, so tell me about it.
- It's on me.

I don't want you to have to pay for it.

Maybe we shouldn't book
this room for a while.

Yeah. [GROANS]

[STEADY BEEPING]

It's a good sign that they-they
lowered the vent settings.

That means his-his lungs
are getting stronger.

Shouldn't have to be
on a ventilator at all.

You know, if I'd just been
around a little more...

All right, for the hundredth time,

you wouldn't have prevented this.

Trained doctors saw no indication

that I was at risk for preterm labor.

'Kay?

[SCOFFS SOFTLY]

You needed to be taking it easy.

Instead, you were picking up
all my slack

after I got spun up and...

stressing out about me
being in the hospital...

I know that it goes against
your frogman nature

to believe that anything
is beyond your control,

but this was.

And the last two weeks have proven to us

that he's a fighter,

like his father.

Look how quickly he got out from
under those French fry lights.

This isn't how I wanted
parenthood to start for us.

JASON: You know, you could've
just brought me lunch.

Didn't have to make it for me.

EMMA: Figured you could use some

of the major food groups

that don't involve lard for once.

You're telling me you came all
the way down here to lecture me

- about my diet?
- You don't want to hear it,

you should've scheduled yourself
an escape to the Sands.

Huh?

The Sands at Rehoboth?

Time away with Mandy?

You are still spending time away
with her, yeah?

Uh, plate just got
a little full, you know?

Team got blown up.

- Mm.
- Pop-Pop, uh...

his priorities,
they needed adjusting, too.

Oh, the great protector looks
out for everyone but himself.

I hope you're seeing her soon, at least.

[GRUNTS]

That's why you sounded so down.

What happened to accepting you deserve

a full life away from Bravo?

No, I'm... I'm not down.

I am not down.

Right.

How can you be down

when you're filling your hours
with brain games?

It's fun games. It's puzzles.

You don't like puzzles?

I... am... good.

This one could have potential.

It used to be a dry cleaner.

[CHUCKLES] That is dark,
damp and depressing.

The idea is for vets like Sam
to feel comfortable

so they can get the help they need.

So we'll make it comfortable.

Look, over here,

a welcome desk
staffed with smiling faces.

And over there

- could be the yoga room.
- [SIGHS]

[EXHALES] I guess
we could enclose this area here

and it'd be a good place
for group therapy.

There it is.

Project like this requires
optimism and imagination.

Y-Yeah. Not to mention
a lot of money and effort.

I mean, babe, rent,
renovations, supplies, staff.

The money Mom gave us from
the first responders settlement

- is not gonna cover all that.
- Look,

I can talk to some fundraising
people at the hospital.

I-I know there are ways.

Grants, loans, financial partners.

Look, whatever it takes until
your -year pension kicks in.

I keep telling you that
if Command determines

that I was hiding my PTS in Nigeria,

I won't even make it to .

Well, then it's a good thing
you have this as a backup plan.

See? More optimism.

- [CRYING]
- Oh, come on, munchkin.

This refusal to sleep
is not a good look for you.

Okay? Well, she's...

she's definitely got
her daddy's stubborn gene,

- that's for sure.
- Mm-hmm.

Never had this issue back home.

This is your home.

Just sleep regression.

Yeah. Book says it's normal.

Ain't that right?

I can't help she sits around

watching her mama do nothing all day.

- Kids learn what they live.
- Come on, now.

Thought we were trying to raise
a confident girl here.

Yeah. My role modeling will get
better once I get a job.

Who knew a sociology degree
and years running a bar

wouldn't open up doors
to a newcomer in town?

You know, uh,

I could put a word in
at the Bulkhead for you.

[CHUCKLES] Lord knows
they owe me a favor or two

with the fortune
that I dropped in there.

Running a bar,
that means being on call - .

I'm gonna need
a lot of babysitting favors

from your friends' wives
when you get spun up.

They're up for it.

It's what we do around here.

'Sides, I-I got
all our expenses covered.

You know, just take your time and...

figure out a dream job
for that sociology degree.

Yeah. What do you want to be
when you grow up?

Huh? What do you want to be?

You want to be the first person
to walk on Mars?

Do ya?

Or maybe Daddy's gonna have
to reconsider his stance

on female SEALs,

- if that's what you dreamed of.
- [GIGGLES]

But you need to sleep
before you dream, munchkin.

You hear that?

[STEADY BEEPING]

- I've done this a time or two now.
- [PHONE BUZZING]

It's hard for me not to...

- Here, can you grab that?
- Sorry.

- Thanks.
- Here.

It's Sonny.

He's just checking on the baby.

You want me to write back for you?

Yeah, you can just...

Wait, there's more, there's more.

The guys are being called in.

You think they're getting spun up?

Parental leave means I'm...

out of the loop.

Well, do you want to...

You want to go see what's up?

No. Look, I...

I hate to leave here, even for a second.

Look, neither one of us
have had much of a break

in the last two weeks, right?

You haven't seen the guys
since the baby was born.

Maybe you can...
You know, you'll have a chance

to have that talk with Jason, too, so...

The only upside
to baby boy coming early:

been forgetting how hard it's
gonna be letting my team leader

and mentor know that...

he may no longer be fit to lead.

Uh, best-case scenario, you
just catch up with your brothers

and, um...

you can bring me back a vanilla latte.

Be back as soon as possible,

- all right?
- Okay. All right.

- You got that?
- Yeah, yeah.

Don't overfeed him now.

[SNIFFS] Hey.

I won't be gone long,
little man, all right?

Bye, Tiny.

You know what this is about?

- Thought you would.
- Oh.

- [CHATTERING]
- Afternoon, Captain Morris.

Geez. The hell was that about?

My white paper's making some waves.

Uh, you know, Command's
not too happy with my thesis

or my arguments or my conclusions.

I mean, I knew that going in,
but I just...

Trouble finds you in this job.

Don't have to go looking for it.

Looks like the, uh, parental
leave policy's been canked.

- Look at this, huh?
- [CHUCKLES SOFTLY]

Question is, man,
how you all holding up?

Good, man. Just, uh,
you know, best we can.

Jaundice is gone, and...

lungs are clearing up, so, you know,

clear a new hurdle every few days.

Sounds like things are going
in the right direction.

Okay, tell me right now.
Is this where you reveal

your baby's name?

Honestly, I think
we're gonna wait till we can...

we can hold the little guy before we...

- Right.
- ... before we settle on one

- that fits him best.
- Yeah.

I'm sorry, but "Percival"

- didn't make the cut.
- [LAUGHING]

Obviously, he doesn't have a big hammer.

- That's actually the, uh...
- [LAUGHS]

- ... favorite of the list.
- All right, listen up.

- Spense, what are you doing here?
- [DOOR CLOSES]

You need me to step out?

That's Bravo .

Technically, he's on parental leave.

He can stay.

Everyone, this is Keith Kincaid.

He's a lawyer
for the Department of Defense.

Uh, does that mean we need
to have our lawyers here?

Because mine right now is
putting his face on a bus stop.

You've been called here today

for an Omega operation in South America,

ranging from one to six months.

To do what?

Details will only be given in-country.

KINCAID: Per Omega,
you will operate outside

the traditional structures laid out

in both Title and Title .

That means you're not
technically working for the DoD,

nor are you technically
recognized by the CIA.

ERIC: You will be given
complete autonomy to execute

the missions involved in the operations.

No oversight, no backstop and,
most importantly, no footprint.

KINCAID: For these reasons,

this operation is completely voluntary.

ERIC: Should you choose to accept,

you will no longer be Bravo Team,

nor will you be under the
protections of DEVGRU

or the DoD.

Life as you know it is going to change.

You will be assigned new identities.

Communications with folks
back home will be limited.

In every sense, you will be on your own.

No cavalry, no QRF.

No exceptions.

♪ ♪

♪ ♪

Hey. See me in my office after.

Copy that.

CLAY: Title 's full

- of legal landmines.
- [DOOR CLOSES]

No wonder the DoD sent Perry Mason.

I wish I just had any information

about the assignment to help us decide

if it was worth the risk
of working without a safety net.

Cloak-and-dagger does have its appeal.

I kind of always wanted
a secret identity.

No, it's not just secret identities.

I mean, it changes the way we work,

with ranks dissolved.

Gonna need to be clear
we can all trust each other.

We know you're solid, Ray.

Still, I mean, you know,

that-that one-to six-month timeline...

it's hard enough as it is

putting our lives on hold when we know

- when we're coming back.
- JASON: Good news is

you get to sidestep 'em.
You're staying home.

SONNY: Yeah. Leaving
Leanne behind with...

so many damn question marks.

It's gonna be tough.

JASON: Is it?

Job's easier when we remember
there's no choice in duty.

I'm in.

Me, too.

SONNY: I became a SEAL

because I wanted to be first
into fire, and...

decision's a hell of a lot easier

knowing that Leanne is gonna
be there when I get home.

I'm in.

I'm in. I hope.

Hit the cages, clear out your kits.

Anything that can identify you,

leave it behind.

ERIC: Come in!

[GRUNTS] You wanted to see me, sir?

Yeah.

Command finished its review
into the report

about your behavior last deployment.

Finished? [STAMMERS]
Without interviewing me?

Didn't need to.

Your teammates satisfied
Command's concerns.

My teammates were called in?

And given instructions not
to discuss the matter with you

or each other.

Look, for your own peace
of mind, I can tell you

that the initial report did not
come from anyone on Bravo.

Um, so, what, that-that's it?

I mean, months
of looking over my shoulder,

questioning my teammates, myself, f...

for nothing?

Well...

Command knows that you are fit for duty,

and your teammates want
to keep operating with you.

I'd call that job security.

Take the win, Ray.

♪ ♪

JASON: You're still here?

Hey. What is the...

You remember that guy's name
from, uh... from Echo Team?

I'm looking for, uh,
someone to fill in for you.

Uh, Pete Foley?

Nah, that doesn't sound right.

You nicknamed him Axel.

Right. Axel.

- [SNAPS FINGERS] Right.
- Yeah.

Right, right, right, right.

Hey, are you, uh...

you sure that Bravo should...

should be doing this Omega?

Know you got a lot on your plate.

Let me worry about what's best
for Bravo Team, okay?

Yeah. It's just, you know...

team's been hitting the red pretty hard

since came back from, uh...
from North Korea.

This is voluntary, you know?

I mean, everyone's got some stuff

worth sticking around for
inside the wire.

Yeah. You most of all.

So, what, are we just
supposed to sit back

and wait for your calendar to open up?

Doesn't work that way.

Maybe I should come.

You know, I mean, with Trent out,

Bravo's already down a man.

Not ideal.

Especially if you got your son
in the hospital, all right?

He's in intensive care.

Trust me, you stay here and
you be there for him. Got it?

You'll thank me down
the line for that one.

- Copy.
- [EXHALES LOUDLY]

[DOOR OPENS]

[DOOR CLOSES]

Yes.

Thank you, Erin.

So helpful.

'Kay, talk soon.

Development officer at work
had some ideas

on where to get more money
for the center.

Command closed the Nigeria inquiry.

I'm clear. My bird and
my pension are out

- of the crosshairs, babe.
- Ah! What a relief.

- [GRUNTING]
- [LAUGHS]

Things getting ironed out
at work change our timeline?

Uh, we're spinning up.

That's changing the timeline.

And I don't know how long
we're gonna be gone.

Could be six months.

Sounds more like a deployment
than a spin-up.

Yeah.

Uh, we might have to hit
the pause button

on our project while I'm gone.

Figure out if we're biting off
more than we can chew.

Okay, well,

at least you can have
some time to decide

if this side hustle was
a passion project

or a distraction from problems at work.

- STELLA: Stop it.
- ASH: That...

- You got to do it...
- Stop telling me.

- Stop. No.
- ... the other way.

- [LAUGHS] Uh-oh.
- Yay.

- [CHUCKLES]: Oh.
- Just in time.

Something for me to wash this down with.

I'm just glad you're eating.

The nurse said that you're gonna forget

- because of all the stress.
- Yeah.

Hey. You should have some chicken.

Yeah. I will.

So what's the word?

Bravo's getting deployed
for up to six months.

Deep-cover special task force.

Sounds intense.

CLAY: Yeah.

I didn't get the chance to start
that conversation with Jason.

Okay, well,

when are they leaving?

- Tomorrow.
- Well, then you still

have time to try and
make him see the light.

Well, can you, um, actually give
me an hour before you try again?

'Cause... I don't remember

the last time I showered,
and I kind of...

[WHISPERS]: You're starting to get

- a little smelly.
- [LAUGHING]

Oh, wait, are you gonna...

Are you guys gonna be okay unsupervised?

Are you kidding me?
I will force him to eat.

Great.

What's going on with Jason?

Uh... [INHALES DEEPLY] I need to...

read him in on something that...
[EXHALES]

... could force him to step aside
or cost him his bird.

Mm-hmm.

Operator like him would rather
go out on his shield than...

take himself off the b*ttlefield.

You starting messing
with his livelihood,

who knows how he'll react?

Yeah, I know.

But don't I owe it to him
and-and my teammates

to speak up if I know there's a problem?

[CHUCKLES]

What are you gonna do
when he doesn't listen?

You gonna run to Command?

You don't want to end up
like me, son, get PNG'd.

Jason's gonna do what he wants to do,

regardless of your input.

Whether you confront him
or go behind his back,

be careful.

It's just gonna blow up in your face.

Hey, hey.

[CHUCKLES]

Is Leanne boycotting her naps again?

Man, she's like
the Jimmy Carter of babies.

[WHISPERS]: She just dozed off.

- Mama's got that sway down.
- Yeah.

How 'bout we get some Mommy
and Daddy time tonight?

Just use these hips
for dancing instead of sleeping.

You think Brock's avail?

Uh...

I'm afraid not.

We're getting spun up for a bit.

How long's "a bit"?

I don't know.

A month.

Six months.

Six months?

Yeah.

I mean,

how-how you think I feel?

You know? Think of all the...

Leanne milestones I'm gonna miss.

Okay. Well, maybe I'll just...

I'll take her back to Texas
while you're gone.

[CHUCKLES]

Why do I got to keep
reminding you that...

this is your home?

You go to Texas,

what's gonna stop you
from never coming back?

[LAUGHING]

Do you hear yourself right now?

- What?
- It sounds like

we're your prisoners
and not your family.

Shows how fragile our situation is.

What does that mean?

I mean...

We both love our little girl,

and we want to do
what's best for her, but...

maybe we're just playing
house for her sake.

You serious? I mean, th-this feels...

- real to me. I mean...
- Does it?

I saw you when we had drinks with Davis.

The spark's still alive

- between you two.
- Hey. Come on.

I-I've told you,

okay, it's-it's over
between Davis and I.

Uh... It's all about you and Leanne now.

That may be true.

But not telling me

you were in a hospital overseas?

That's not the sign
of a healthy relationship.

Okay, well, we've hit
a rough patch, then.

All right? I'll... I will...

I'll stay home from the op
and I will just...

% focus on us.

That's got to help, right?

If there were no Leanne,

would you be gripping so hard right now?

Do you even think
you're in love with me?

I want to be.

And I want to be in love with you.

But Leanne deserves better

than just a family playing make-believe.

And you and I do, too.

What are you saying right now?

I think Leanne and I should move home.

- And how long will you be gone?
- I don't know.

And how do I get in touch with you?

Uh, like I always got
in touch with you, all right?

I'll get in touch with you,
you don't get in touch with me.

You know the drill. Okay?

And do not make any major life decisions

before I'm back, you got it?

Really? That's the last thing
you want to say to me

before you go? Hmm.

Yeah, well, 'cause I mean it.

You have to let this go.

You and Mom were married
by the time you were my age.

Your mom sacrificed a lot for me
so I could be with the teams.

All right? Now with Brad
heading off to BUD/S,

that puts you on the same path.

It doesn't have to.

Look...

this w*r's not going anywhere,
you understand?

All right? It's only breaking
the people that fight it

and, sadly, breaking
the people who love them.

You make Mom sound like
some tragic victim.

Your mom suffered because of me.

- All right?
- What's that mean?

[EXHALES]

Visits from Grandma Linda
and Pop-Pop swooping in

like Mary Poppins when I was
gone, does that ring a bell?

Mom was one of the strongest
people I've ever known.

She didn't back down from challenges,

and she knew when to ask for help.

You know what,
if Brad wants to end up busted

and full of regrets, that's fine,

just don't make the same mistakes.

I'm not Mom, but more
importantly, Brad is not you.

What's that supposed to mean?

You were so close, Dad,
to the life you deserve.

Breaks my heart seeing you retreat back

into your miserable three-foot world.

You know what, don't worry

about reaching out while you're gone.

Fine, I won't.

[MONITOR BEEPING STEADILY]

Hi, baby.

Thank you for that.

CLAY: He's so helpless.

Well, we're doing everything
we can to protect him.

Wish everything was so black and white.

Are you still trying to figure
out how to talk to Jason?

Confronting him on the eve of deploying

would just mess with his head even more,

put Bravo more at risk.

I just have to,

you know, trust that he'll go on the op,

the team will be okay.

There's no way that you're
comfortable with that scenario.

You're thinking about going with them.

You would be there to protect
him, protect your brothers?

If I go, I-I can't
confront him down there.

I mean, I-I would just be his backstop,

try and keep the team safe.

But I can't leave you
and our unnamed baby

just here in the NICU behind.

I mean, after-after I promised
I would never abandon you again.

Look, I'll-I'll do whatever
you want, all right?

[CHUCKLES] Come on, you know

you're not actually
giving me a choice, right?

I mean, if I tell you to stay home

and something happens to them,
would you ever forgive me?

Would you forgive yourself?

So you think I should go?

I think that I would give
anything to not have

the-the two most important
people in my life

in harm's way at the same time.

But I also think...

[SIGHS]

I also think that, without you,
Bravo will have no safety net

and Jason will have no backstop.

Whatever you do,
it has to be your choice.

Grant, hey, it's me. Again. Ah...

Um, look, I know you have
a crazy day today.

I just really didn't want to
leave this over your voice mail.

I have to go out of town for work.

Um, I hate going, since we're
in such a good groove, but...

I don't have a choice. [CLEARS THROAT]

So, um, look, I guess I'll ju...
I'm gonna try you again later.

Okay.

Sir.

Just wanted to say that I am so excited

about, you know,

- being a part of Omega Team.
- Mm.

I know that this is a privilege
for me to be included,

- and I'm grateful.
- Well, it is a privilege,

one that not everyone on Command
felt you merited.

- Because of my paper?
- Yeah.

I argued that you're
more than qualified,

and sending you with Bravo
makes the most tactical sense.

Whether they agreed with me
or saw this as an opportunity

to send you into a hole
for a few months is unclear.

I see.

Is there a reason why
you're reading me in

on these details now?

I warned you about that paper.

The damage to your career has begun.

It's on you to figure out
how to control it.

Yes, sir.

Thank you.

[BEEPING]

Huh.

It's low energy from
the two guys who normally

can't wait to get outside
the wire to kick doors.

Just focused up is all.
You know the drill.

SONNY: I'm happy to just have

Vah Beach in my rearview mirror.

Even though I am flying commercial.

[CHUCKLES] Oh, Omega op protocol, man.

Staggered commercial flights
keeps us clean.


JASON: Brock should've landed
in, uh, Riohacha by now.

Should be connected with our contacts.

Brock all alone in Colombia, huh?

What could possibly go wrong?

What the hell are you doing here?

Thought I told you
we don't need you for this one.

- All in all the time.
- SONNY: What, you're deploying

while your kid's in the hospital?

Look, man, the doctor can do more

for my kid right now than I can.

No room for the home front on an Omega.

I need all my guys dialed in.

My focus is on Bravo.

My flight's next.
See you all in-country.

Hey, Clay, we chose rooms already.

Thought we should stick you with Sonny.

Yeah, you know, we thought
you needed a little practice

losing sleep to a gassy, whiny kid.

- That's cute.
- [DAVIS CHUCKLES]

Bravo Team, welcome to Colombia.

Ops Officer Smith, Jason Hayes.

- Yes, sir.
- Blackburn says hi.

Served with your XO
before I moved to the Agency.

He speaks highly
of your team's abilities,

which will be put to the test
while you're down here.

Well, hopefully that, uh,
RadioShack keypad

isn't put to the test
protecting this safe house.

This residence is not intended
to be a stronghold.

While you'll need to maintain
cover here in Riohacha,

it is a permissive environment.

Your operations will be over the border.

- Venezuela.
- [RAY GROANS]

I take it you've worked there?

Oh, yeah, we, uh, spent
a decade there one week.

Just hope our digs don't
come under siege this time.

I'll be on call to support you
over the course of the Omega.

Welcome bags have
secure cell phones, pistols

and new IDs for each of you.

Armory's through that door.

All indig weapons to maintain cover.

If you don't see what you need,
I've got guys who can get it.

Only thing missing is any clue
what we're doing down here.

After Bravo Team's rescue
of Dr. Jin from North Korea,

he's proven to be a critical
source for the Agency

in our efforts to monitor
nuclear armament worldwide.

Right this way.

One of Dr. Jin's students is this man,

Dr. Francisco Guillen,
a Venezuelan national.

Since leaving his training
in North Korea,

intel says Dr. Guillen is developing

a Venezuelan nuclear weapons program.

So we got a volatile state
in our hemisphere getting nukes?

That is the stuff
of Cold w*r nightmares.

We're here to take him out?

SMITH: This Omega's strategic mission

is dismantling the Venezuelan
nuclear weapons program.

All indications are that
a capture/k*ll of Guillen

will strike a fatal blow to it.

You got a lot of legwork
on this wallpaper.

I mean, did you have a team
running CTR on Guillen?

Ground Branch tracked him for weeks

where he resides in Maracaibo,
establishing pattern of life.

CLAY: I imagine the Venezuelans keep

a pretty tight watch on the guy

who could single-handedly
promote them to global thr*at.

On the rare occasion when he emerges

from his gilded cage where he's kept,

Guillen is shadowed
by a constant security detail.

We'll get him.

SMITH: Challenge is in neutralizing him

while leaving no trace.

I'll let you get to it.

JASON: Tomorrow we take this guy out.

Davis, how long is it gonna take you

to install the vehicle-hacking software?

Matter of seconds
for a stationary vehicle.

The signal routes through the Bluetooth

on the HVT's cell phone
into the car's computer,

so he and the driver will have no clue.

Based on the pattern of life,
Guillen will make

his weekly trip
to this restaurant right here.

And after dinner,
he'll come back to his car,

he'll head back home across that bridge.

SONNY: And then we'll play a massive
game of Grand Theft Auto.

DAVIS: We'll have total control
over the target vehicle's

acceleration, the brakes, the steering.

We'll drive him right off the bridge.

- "Look, a tragic accident".
- And the Venezuelans'

atomic plans will go
"Hasta la vista, baby".

Yeah, we hope.

What do you mean, you hope?

I mean, what if there's more

to the-the nuclear program than Guillen?

Right? More that he could
shine a light on.

RAY: Mm. Clay's right.

Guillen could provide priceless intel.

We're here to dismantle their
whole program, not just one man.

Capture may be the better option.

No, this isn't an option.

SONNY: If Guillen vanishes,

the Venezuelan program
is gonna go so deep,

you may never get a sh*t at it again.

Yeah, so we-we grab Guillen

without them ever knowing he's gone.

Your plan still works,
we just add one element.

- Pixie dust?
- Divers.

RAY: A dive team could wait

under the bridge and pull Guillen

from the wreckage
while he's still alive.

You're telling me that
no one's gonna suspect

that the driver's missing
when they dredge up the car?

It could've washed out with the tide.

This is not Dr. Jin, looking to defect.

I'm gonna have to agree.

I mean, everything on the wall
says this guy's a true believer.

JASON: That's right.
You know, he won't cooperate.

Not worth the risk.

No ranks in Omega.

We all get a say.

There's only one person in this room

who can make a call like this,
and it's not Bravo .

Hey, why don't we take
five minutes, man?

Come on, man.

Look, you said your piece.

We both know Jason's
not gonna back down.

Uh, makes him stubborn, not right.

You and I aren't the only ones seeing

that capture's the smarter play here.

Let's put it to vote.

Clay, it may be no ranks down here,

but what happens when we get back home

and it's back to Bravo as usual?
How's that go?

What happens in Venezuela
will not stay in Venezuela.

You'd rather lose a chance
at critical intel

- than step on Jason's toes?
- That capture plan

is not a sure thing.

It goes sideways, we blow this
whole op before it even starts.

Now, if you want to put it to a vote,

my vote is to not start
Bravo Civil w*r on day one.

Come on. Let's go knock this thing down.

Hey, slow your roll, Sonny.
Yeah, I already prepped

all that stuff, man,
you're screwing it up.

Look, just because
you didn't get your way

with the op plan

doesn't mean you need
to micromanage me, okay?

Them NICU doctors,

they probably got sick and tired of you

standing over their shoulder,
telling 'em what to do,

so they sent you packing, huh?

Look, I'm here because I have
a responsibility to this team.

[CHUCKLES] You really think your
sh*t don't stink, don't you?

Hmm?

God, what would happen to us if Bravo

wasn't here to save us all?

Hey. Roll out in five, two vehicles.

Davis, you're with me,
to deploy the software.

Gonna be in the middle
of the action again.

I'm ready.

CLAY: Hey, Davis, I can, uh,

I can be in there with you
and help you run whatever tech.

Uh, Jace, you got
your favorite back seat driver.

Hey, f*ck off, Sonny.

- Hey, hey. Settle down, man.
- Whoa, whoa.

Hey.

Clay, Sonny, ride together.

The rest of you with me.

[BIRDS CHIRPING]

I got to relieve myself
after that four-hour drive.

Guess this should work.

Are you serious, man? Haven't you heard?

Everything's bigger in Texas.

Yeah, okay.

Oh. Dr. Guillen looks like
he's living pretty large.

Sure he's got a few bathrooms in there.

CLAY: Well, man knows how
to k*ll a half a million people

with an atom.

Makes sense they'd want
to keep him comfy.

SONNY: Well, hope he enjoyed it.

'Cause he's getting in his coffin.

[ENGINE STARTS]

Target vehicle is moving.

JASON: That's good copy.

[ENGINE STARTS]

Stick close.

HVT's vehicle is approaching your pos.

It's connecting.

[MEN SPEAKING SPANISH]

- [COMPUTER BEEPS]
- Upload complete.

Let me test it.

Looks good.

Target upload's complete.

Sonny, seriously? It's a bottle.

, this is .

Target vehicle still hasn't moved.

JASON: Copy. Keep eyes on.

Once HVT is back on road, RTB.

Hey, you want us to stick around here,

- hang tight and back you up?
- Negative. You will RTB.

[SNIFFLES]

All the variables on this one,

I don't know why he doesn't
want us to stay close.

Back seat driving from another car.

All right. Magnificent.

Look, man, I just want
to get home to my kid.

Okay, the quicker that
we dismantle this program,

the quicker we get back to our families.

Look, I refuse to take
family advice from a guy

who blew town while his kid's
still in the hospital.

Look, man, I-I think you seem to forget

that you left your family behind, too.

I ain't got no family to forget.

What does that mean?

Leanne was ripped away from me
right before we, uh, spun up.

Hannah decided to take her
back to Texas.

Sonny, I'm sorry, man.

Spare me your pity.

, this is . Target
vehicle's on the move.

- JASON: Copy, .
- [ENGINE STARTS]

JASON: Who are these guys?

Briefcases say business.

Ray, you're gonna want to ID them.

On it.

[CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKING]

Look at the way Guillen's
kissing their asses.

Must be VIPs.

Want Team to follow?

Not worth the risk of exposure.

We'll run their pictures through
the Agency database for ID.

- , RTB.
- CLAY: Are you sure

- you don't need more eyes?
- Negative. RTB now.

[WOMAN SHOUTING]

What is this?

Looks like Guillen must have
a hard time hearing no.

Jesus. They're putting
a civilian in the car.

There's no way we're gonna crash it now.

[SHOUTING]

Hey, what are you doing?

- [SCREAMS]
- [PEOPLE SHOUTING]

[TIRES SCREECHING]

- JASON: Let's go.
- Eh, so much for zero footprint.

Stay on them. Move!

[TIRES SCREECHING]

He's changing routes.

sh*ts spooked them.

[TIRES SCREECHING]

That truck's VSP.
Death squad we locked horns with

- the last time we were here.
- Yeah, the two-inch scar

- on my scalp remembers.
- RAY: We got to cut bait.

He'll be at the restaurant
same time next week.

No, if they're scared enough
to call in the VSP,

they're gonna change up their pattern
and Guillen's gonna vanish.

We won't have another chance.

VSP attached itself to HVT.

Waiting for them to drop off

before we make our move
on the target car.

Yeah, copy, .

We're turning around to assist.

Clay wants to provide support.

No, we do not need another
vehicle drawing attention.

Will you call him off?

- We're managing, .
- Continue to RTB.

We got to turn around.

Did you got your wires crossed
in your comms there?

You heard him say no.

I heard "VSP".

All right? Op's already sideways,

and now there's K*llers in the mix.

[TIRES SCREECHING]

Team , we're heading your direction

to remove the HVT's security escort.

RAY: Our chance is slipping away, Jace.

If he's got an idea, let's hear it.

- CLAY: Here they come.
- [ENGINES APPROACHING]

I got eyes on the target
vehicle and VSP security escort.

You got one sh*t at this.

Got to make them think it's a blowout.

[TIRES SCREECHING]

[MEN SPEAKING SPANISH]

JASON: Okay, just take it easy.
Slow down.

All right? Stay back.

They don't buy that's a flat tire,

they're gonna go shields up right here.

Go. Go.

We're less than two klicks
from Guillen's house.

Window's closing fast.

Uh, we need to pick our spot.

T intersection up ahead,
he'll have to go left or right.

Brock, get closer to him, will you?

JASON: It's now or never.
Davis, take control.

[ENGINE REVS]

Guess a deployment beer
doesn't taste as sweet

when there's no general order
prohibiting it.

Uh, deployment beer tastes

so much better when you get a fire.

We should, uh, see what we can
grab from down here

and torch up on the roof.

RAY [CHUCKLES]:
Oh, yeah, a rooftop inferno

is gonna do wonders for our cover.

Drew enough attention
to ourselves on that op,

I mean, it can't hurt.

What, do you got a problem
with that execution?

RAY: Look, it wasn't as slick
as we planned,

but we got it done.

Guillen is erased.

Hey, the two guys we saw with Guillen?

FRS just identified them as Ephraim Zaid

and Arman Soroush.

Iranian nationals.

RAY: Iranians?

They're no strangers
to the nuclear game.

You think they're involved down here?

Zaid and Soroush are top-tier leadership

in the Iranian nuclear program.

They wouldn't waste their time
on some pipe dream.

If they're here,
the Venezuelan program is real.

Except for the local Dr. Strangelove

that ate the engine block.

Ask him how real it is now.

CLAY: Be nice if we could.

Maybe capturing him
wasn't such a terrible idea.

Jace!

- Hey.
- [METALLIC THUD]

This whole "no ranks" bullshit,
it stops right now.

You questioning my orders earlier,

then you just taking a run at me
right now in front of my team?

You're looking for some
kind of measuring contest,

guess what, buddy, you're gonna lose.

- That's not what I'm doing.
- Then what exactly

- are you doing?
- I'm keeping this team safe.

That's my job. I don't
need your help, .

You know, it's one thing for an operator

to go outside the wire
and miss the birth of his child,

but to go outside of the wire
when your child is in the NICU?

Your son is fighting for his life,

and all you care about is your ego?

Look, I am here protecting
Bravo from you, okay?

Your head is not right, and
it hasn't been for months.

Interesting. Huh,
that's your f*cking play?

Stick me with TBI so you have
a clear path to being Bravo ?

You being compromised
is dangerous for everyone.

You want to know what's
f*cking dangerous? Huh?

You threatening your team leader.

So you better think long and hard,

right, about what you're
gonna say and do next,

'cause the next time it's not
gonna be a f*cking warning.
