02x22 - Never Out of the Fight

[bunniefuu]

Previously onSEAL Team...
JASON: We've lost Bravo 2.

I say again, we've lost Bravo 2.

RAY:
Havoc Base, this is Bravo 2.

Do you copy?JASON:
All right, change of plans.

We're going to get Ray.

I came here to talk
about my real issue: TBI.

I didn't see any record
of traumatic brain injury.

If your wound
wasn't documented

while you were serving,
I can't treat it.

Hey, Swanny.

[Clay sobbing]

They'll send everyone.
Bravo will not be able

to fight their way to safety.

I know.

There's no chance I'm
authorizing an Indian-led QRF.

And you'll have to deal
with the fallout.

Bashir Varma. I
know this location.

[grunts]

[shouting]
[grunting]

[screams]

I will k*ll you.

Ain't nothing
stopping me.

[prays softly]

Go.

[woman shouts]

[panting]

RAY:
He is my refuge,

my God in whom I trust.

Ray, get down.

ERIC:
Copy that.

Bravo's helo is about
to touch down.

Can't believe we're getting
them all back in one piece.

Well, recovered Ray,
avoided a diplomatic firestorm,

and we didn't escalate
the India-Pakistan crisis

into a nuclear w*r.

I'd call today a win.

Well, don't forget
why we're here, Commander.

To get Yasin Khan.

Let me remind you,

recovering Perry
rather than

taking out Khan
was your call.

One that's had
some serious consequences.

Rescuing Senior Chief Perry
was the right decision.

I stand by it, sir.

A zealot like Khan, he's
got to spread his message.

He's not gonna
go underground.

We'll find him.

It won't be Bravo
going in if you do.

Had your sh*t
and you missed.

Total mission failure.

That's not entirely
fair, sir, we...

I don't entirely care.

The results speak
for themselves.

A word, Commander?

Hey, Ray.
How you feeling?
Hey.

Uh...

a few scratches,
few bruises, but...

I'll be ready to go
when we reload on Khan.

Not asking
about the elbow.

I know.

Give us a minute,
will you?

[exhales]

[grunts lightly]

How am I feeling?
Yeah.

How are you feeling?[exhales]

Feel like I've never seen
a more beautiful sunset

than the one
I saw tonight.[sniffs]

[clears throat]

Feel like...

I've never wanted to
see my family more

than I want to see
them right now.

And I feel like...

I don't deserve...

my teammates who marched
through hell

to come save me.

Really thought you were
gonna die on that mountain.

I did die.

Part of me, anyway.

I was almost lost
for good, brother.

[scoffs]

Told this woman
I was holed up with...

I'd k*ll her
if she made a sound.

I scared her, but
I terrified myself.

Mostly because
I believed I'd do it.

Knew I was digging
my own grave

if I let her
go, but, Jace,

something happened
and I realized

she was sent to me.

That woman was my salvation.

She was your salvation--
how's that?

It just hit me.

I'd rather die being
the man Naima loved...

than live as the man she found.

I know Mexico...

denying that guy's
last rites, it...

hey.

That wasn't you, man,
that was me.

I know how hard
that was on you, and I...

should have been there
for you, and I wasn't.

You were when you marched
your ass

over that damn mountain
to come save me.

[sniffles]
And that's all that matters.

No brother left behind.Amen.

Amen.
That's right.

♪

SET MANAGER:
Back in five,

four, three...

I'm pleased to be joined
by Ash Spenser,

former Navy SEAL and author
of the best-selling book

The Man behind the Myth.

Welcome.It's an absolute honor
to be here, Patty,

speaking about an American hero
that your audience

most likely has never heard of.

Brett Swann.

Brett is the former Navy SEAL
who recently

took his own life
in the parking lot

of a VA campus?That's correct.

One among 19 veterans
who have committed su1c1de

on VA campuses
from 2017 till now.

What do you call that?

Acts of protest.

Wake-up calls.

Right, I-I guess what
I'm asking, Ash, is,

did Brett do
what he did because he was

suffering from
traumatic brain injury?

Brett committed su1c1de because

he couldn't get treatment
for his TBI.

And that's a crime.

A national disgrace.

Is this your second book?

That's correct.

JASON: There he is,
ladies and gentlemen.

Bravo 2 is back in the fold.

Hey, how you feeling, buddy?[Jason whoops]

I, uh...

grateful for all
you boys did for me.JASON: Mm-hmm.

Hate I put you
in that position.

Do it again if we have to.

SONNY:
Well, no doubt, but,

if you do go missing again,
can we please

do it in a less
vertical environment?

Because my legs, they,
they are k*lling me right now.

Hurt? Like that?
That hurt?
[groans]

[laughter]SONNY: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Come on, now.

Thank God for those horses.

Oh, you know,
I'm actually pissed off

that I missed Sonny
in his element.

In his element, man?Yeah.

He's definitely
no Clint Eastwood on a horse.

More like a koala bear
on a mule.

[Jason and Ray laugh]What the hell
you talking about, man?

I was doing things
on that animal

that you city boys
can't even comprehend.

[grunts]Sonny can't ride.

JASON:
No, he can't ride.
What?

I can ride just
fine, I just...

I'm not a fan of those
furry, demonic quadrupeds.

Oh, a cowboy that hates horses.
I don't get it, I don't get it.

A frogman who hates water.

You two are a hell of a lot
more entertaining

when you
punch each other.I mean, look,

hey, you could've...
been Full Metal.

He fell off at least,
what, twice?

What I was demonstrating there

was a classic
horse warfare combat dismount.

[laughter]Y'all should've been
taking notes.

All right,
here we go.

So, we cleared hot
to go get Khan?

Khan's in the wind.

Entire compound's
been vacated.

Look, fellas,

Commander Shaw's gonna recommend
that Bravo Team be split up

when we get back
from Virginia Beach.

I'm sorry.

I wanted you to hear
it from me first.

Uh-uh. Guy's got no right.

I wouldn't trade Shaw's position

for all the tri-tip
in the world.

[indistinct chatter in distance]

[indistinct chatter]

[exhales]

[groaning]

[exhales]

Shaw's out of his mind.

I'll do whatever I can.

Exhaust my Rolodex.
People owe me favors.

You know what,
maybe you should spend

some more time
watching your own six.

Indian helo disappears
out of nowhere.

You must have pulled
some strings for that one.

Some strings, something
like that, yeah,

That's gonna cost you.

Jason.

A lot of things we do
in this job keep me up at night,

but risking it to save you guys
is not gonna be one of them.

Are you gonna be okay?

Okay? I just blew up my team.

[wry chuckle]
You saved Ray's life.

Yeah, right after I almost
ruined my relationship with him.

You know, Mandy, I just
spent months convincing myself

that everything is just fine,
that everything's okay,

despite everything that's
gone on in my life.

My wife dying.

Adam getting blown up.

Brett, Clay.

You know, Mandy, maybe it's
just me who's falling apart

and taking my team with me.

You're being too
hard on yourself.
Am I?

Am I?

I have never seen anyone
adapt so effortlessly

on the b*ttlefield.

You can do that
off the field, too.

You just have to decide to.

I don't know.

I don't know how.

Where you going?

Find Khan.

Hung around you long enough
to know one thing.

What's that?

We're never out of the fight.

[door opens]

Patty.Such a pleasure.

Nice to see you again.

[sighs]:
So, what'd you think?

I think Swanny couldn't ask
for a better advocate.

Take a real
coldhearted bastard

not to give him a
Purple Heart now.

[phone vibrating]Thanks for stepping up.

One second.
[groans]

Spenser here.

Congressman Zuckerman.

Oh, you saw it?

Yes, sir, it's...
hugely important.

No, I-I can do that.

Absolutely. I'll
see you tomorrow.

Congressman Zuckerman
from the Armed Forces Committee?

This guy draws a
lot of water, Clay.

Could be just
the guy we need

to fast-track that
Purple Heart for Brett.

All because of you,
kid. [chuckles]

RAY: It's hard to believe
we might never go

outside the wire together again.

Shaw's got his head so far
up his cake-eating ass.

Hate to see what the world's
like without Bravo in it.

Indian intel source
places Khan in Lahore tonight

for a high-level meeting.

I hate to be a buzzkill,
Mandy, but...

We're the closest American unit
in the theater.

This call will be
above Shaw's head.

[chuckles]
One last rodeo.

Bravo rides again.

India intelligence
received confirmation

from an embedded agent: Khan
stayed local, and is holding

a meeting tonight to coordinate
a multipronged att*ck,

likely in retaliation
for being targeted.

Gentlemen, this continues to be
an extremely volatile situation.

The entire region is on high
alert, both sides of the border.

And an urban environment means
even less of a margin of error.

This needs to be
a flawless operation.

The target building sits
in the middle of the city,

in the timber district.ERIC:
Populated area

means lots of eyes and ears.

Attracting
any unwanted attention

will send this op sideways
in a hurry.

Zero footprint on this one.

All right, now that
everybody's ears are up,

it's gonna be tough sneaking
into Pakistan under their noses.

Yeah. An industrial
zone is fed by a river

that runs into Lahore
from India.

We'll swim in?
Yeah, swim.

Khan is a treasure trove
of intelligence.

This could be the most
significant capture since KSM.

Capture?

Uh-uh.

We're toe-tagging
that son of a bitch

for what he did to Bravo 6.

Listen, I know you all
want justice for Clay,

but Bravo could win
a lot of friends

at the Pentagon and at Langley
if you bring Khan in alive.

[door chimes]

Saw your dad on
TV last night.

Oh, what's
he grandstanding about now?

Brett Swann.

That right?

Yes, that is right.

It's ironic how your father
picked up the very fight

that I ordered you to put down.

Yes, sir.

Good frogman uses every tool
in their kit to succeed.

I hope Ash gets Swanny
what he deserves.

[door opens]

Contact's here.

Gear up.

Painter's van.

Nice touch, Batra.

So, doing some
interior decorating

or are we gonna be
schwacking boogers?

You guys are as good as I hear,
there will be time for both.

Havoc, this is 1,
I'm passing Dirty Work.

[siren wails]

Cordoned off
the target building.

Well, what do you call
a curveball in cricket?

Cops must be on the take.

Yeah, we make our move now,
we'll be front-page news.

Hey, circle back to the alley
behind the building.

Bravo 1, the side alley has
approximately two meters

of separation
between the buildings.

JASON:
Copy that, Havoc.

Target building
doesn't have a back door.

JASON:
Yeah, but it's got
a fire escape.

Sonny, take care
of those lights.

Roger that, Master Chief.

Take the fire escape
up to the roof,

clear down,
exfil the same way.

All right.

Full Metal,
you've got overwatch.

Roger that.Havoc, this is 1.

Jackpot.

[clears throat]

Commander Shaw,

we just confirmed
that Bravo k*lled four

of the most wanted t*rrorists
in the region tonight.

Tell you what, Shaw's got some
pair, hitching a ride with us.

SONNY:
We should give
Commander Yoko Nono

the Argentinian
elevator treatment.

I tell you what, Shaw's gonna
be headed for a long-neck enema

if he tries
to turn this plane dry.

Yeah, well, I don't think
he's gonna be interested

in tangling with you.

Shaw just got his legs
cut out from under him.

You want to tell me what in
the hell you're talking about?

What I'm saying is,
is that in addition

to capturing Khan,
you boys just took out

four of the most wanted
t*rrorists in the region.

Shaw is gonna
get laughed out of D.C.

if he tries to take out Bravo.

[Southern accent]: Looks like
the band ain't breaking up

any time soon,
'cause we're back.

[laughter]Look, we've taken our share
of lumps this deployment.

Some of 'em were
self-inflicted, but...

you guys kept pulling
yourselves up off the mat.

In the end...

we took out the son of a
bitch who took out Clay.

Never out of the fight.

BRAVO:
Never out of the fight.

Cheers.

Hey.

How'd it go
with the congressman?

That man can talk.

Can I get a whiskey on the
rocks, make it a double?

Isn't it a little early
for a double?

[exhales]
Politicians will
do that to you.

So? What, is he,
is he gonna push

for the Purple Heart
for Brett?

Congressman Zuckerman
definitely views Brett's case

as an opportunity to spread
the word about the need

to change the way that we treat
our vets, but-- thank you--

the only change that clown
is really interested in

is moving his ass
to the Senate.

[scoffs]

Yeah, well, doing
what's right and self-promotion

aren't mutually exclusive.

Zuckerman made it
clear if the m*llitary

were to start retroactively
awarding Purple Hearts,

it'll just open up all kinds
of floodgates for legal issues,

creating huge financial burdens.

Brett's not getting
a Purple Heart.

No, he's not,

but I'm gonna keep
banging on the drum.

Maybe it's time to let it go.

I'm not letting it go.

In a few years
you're gonna be a vet.

I'm not gonna let you
suffer the same fate.

And, look, I want
this for Swann.

I want this for
all the vets.

But mostly I
want it for you.

Thanks, Dad.

Ugh, just go back to

Oh... man, that's my "18 hours

Yeah.

somebody to come home to.

Yeah, just hope I get

Hope so.

Usually I got to drag
Sonny out of the sandbox.

Aw, come on, I-I just want

Yeah, and not

Oh, man, I just want to get

How's your leg?It's good.

Yeah, it's gonna be fine.

Ah. Look at you. Ah!

I need to go to her.

I owe her that much.

And I think
it'd be good for you.

I don't understand.

You've been fighting me going

It's what I do.

And with you, you know,
going off to college,

I'm thinking,

how am I supposed
to protect you?

Protect me from what?Don't know.

Bad choices, bad people,
things happening,

you getting hurt,
but that's not rational.

It's not rational.

You know, that kind of fear
just eats you up inside,

and it's undermining,
and I don't want my fear to ruin

your future.

You just woke up one day in Guam

they knew where Bashir was:

you.

[sighs]

What can I say about Brett Swann
that we don't already know?

Brett was...
he was a great man. Check.

To me this moment
isn't about Brett.

It's about failure.

Brett took his own life.

That's not why
his life is over.

He was found in a parking lot,
but he didn't die there.

He d*ed in Afghanistan
with his best friend Nicky.

Every moment that Brett
was living past that contact,

he was only sleepwalking,

because he was hurt
and he was changed.

I know because I was there for
the last few months of his life.

He was... he was helping me,
and he did help me.

Brett Swann was a hero.

Injured in combat,
k*lled by w*r.

And he deserved
to be honored as such.

And that didn't happen because
I failed to make it happen.

So...

I'm going to, uh...
I'm gonna leave it up

to some other people
to talk about

what kind of a man Brett was.

What I'd like to do
is apologize.

I'm sorry
our country failed you, Brett.

I'm sorry
that our politicians failed you.

I'm sorry
that the VA failed you.

Most of all,
I'm sorry that I failed you.

I failed to get for you an honor
which is rightfully yours.

You deserved better than me.

Than us as a nation.

Every vet deserves better
than what they got.

That's it.
