01x15 - No Man's Land

[bunniefuu]

Previously on SEAL Team...

Team Echo was on their
second mission of the night.

ERIC: They breached the structure.
Seconds later,

- there was an expl*si*n.
- So you're telling me that

all six members of Echo Team are dead?

Aresh Kamal. b*mb maker.

Kamal's strictly mercenary, that means

somebody backed up the truck
big time for the Echo job,

and we want to find out who that is.

BROCK: He's got something. (GROWLING)

MANDY: You guys pulled a lot
of intel out of that house.

Hoping one of the cell
phones will give us a target.

- Something else I want to run by you.
- Okay, what's that?

What if somebody

blackmailed Tariq?

His relationship with Azim

would've made him a prime target.

He told me to forget about
the man with a red car.

Man with a red car?

A man Tariq did business with.

I'm Paul Mulwray. I write for Vice.

Who do you know around
here drives a red Mercedes?

This part of the country,
I know of exactly one.

We're gonna find the guy behind it,

and then we're gonna
find the guy behind him

and the guy behind him
because that's what we do.

JASON: Mandy. Mandy. (GASPS)

I need to talk to you. Okay?

So get up. We need to talk.

Come on. Let's go.

(YAWNS) It's a little early
for the after action review.

Well, you know what,
the AAR's gonna be a little late

for what I have to say right now.

Okay? So look, I made some-some coffee.

- You want some coffee?
- What's up? No.

No? Here, have some coffee.
It's good for you.

- You're gonna like it.
- Okay, so?

So... So.

It's been, what? It's been a week

since we rolled up on this b*mb guy,
Kamal. Right?

One week.

Based on the intel that
we took from his place

and-and the contacts that
we got off his phone,

we have hit targets.

That's targets in seven days.

And what have we come up with?

- What?
- I don't think you need this.

What?

We always knew that
there was a possibility

that Kamal's associates would
dump their old phone numbers.

That's right, and now we know
for sure that they did, okay?

But how does that bring us
any closer to finding the guys

that hired Kamal to put a hit
on our brothers from Echo Team?

- We find them another way.
- What way?

- We'll find a way.
- What way?

- There's still Salim Hakan.
- Salim Hakan the cop?

Well, we know he was linked to the guy

who lead Echo to their deaths.

Just find me the guy that
took out Steve Porter.

That's all I care about.

Once you put that package together,

we will be ready to go. Ready to go.

(SIGHS) Man, I am tired. I'm so tired.

I got to get some sleep.
Enjoy that coffee, will you?

I need rest.

You know, I-I was sleeping.

Asleep.

MULWRAY:
You here to give me the scoop you owe me

for the tip about the red Mercedes?

What more can you tell
me about Salim Hakan?

Didn't I give you my

"information is currency" speech?

I promised I'd give you some
soon as I had some to give.

Okay. How about why were
you interested in the car?

All you have to do is say,
"Off the record",

and we're in the cone of silence.

Definitely off the record.

The man in the red Mercedes

was leaning on Tariq
Jamala before he d*ed.

Says who? The boyfriend?

I heard he'd been talking.

Don't suppose I could get
a few minutes with him?

I'm sure daddy can make
another phone call.

Pretty sure I told you I don't
call my father "daddy".

Anyway...

Congressman Mulwray would prefer

I stop reporting on the
incident altogether.

We lost six Tier One operators.

Kind of thing might give people
the idea we're not winning.

Can't have that.

You really think that Salim Hakan

forced Tariq to set up your guys?

I really think I need
to know more about him.

Salim's business is doing
favors for powerful people.

Us included.

Only way he's managed to survive.

When the asteroid hits,

it'll just be Salim and the cockroaches.

Hard to see k*lling Americans
as a recipe for survival.

Any chance he got radicalized?

No. But there is a
chance that he's decided

the radicals are the horse to back.

You have a relationship with him?

Salim only talks to
reporters he can buy.

No matter who their fathers are.

He'll talk to you, though.

Salim loves beautiful women.

He'll know who you work for,

and he'll still talk to you.

I work for the State Department.

(ROCK MUSIC PLAYING)

(PANTING)

(DOG WHIMPERS) Cerberus... (COMMANDS)

(DOG WHIMPERS)

Yo, J.

I'm up.

JASON: It's the b*mb maker's place.

BROCK: Yeah, Kamal.

Yeah, right. What am I looking at here?

It's just after this. Watch.

He's going to find
something in the wall.

Right there.

He doesn't sit, so no expl*sives.

Yeah. Originally,
he was imprinted on narcotics.

Right. Good boy.

Thanks to intel gleaned

from the video taken of
the Aresh Kamal as*ault

by one of our team members...

(APPLAUSE, CHEERS) Good boy!

Cerberus!

Get that dog a bone!

MANDY: ... We were able to task

an Army daylight presence patrol

with re-visiting Kamal's workshop.

They checked the spot that
drew Cerberus's interest

and they found these

hidden within the walls.

That's heroin, boys.

Yeah, no kidding. Afghan Brown.

How much you think that's worth?

Ten grand, give or take.

- That's it?
- CLAY: That's all it's worth here.

You get back stateside,
you're looking at high six figures.

Huh. Time to shine, boys. Let's go.

(LAUGHS)

Pretend I didn't hear that.

SONNY: Come on, man.

So, ten grand, too little for a dealer,

- too much for a user.
- That's his paycheck.

Saying that whoever hired Kamal

to build the b*mb that k*lled Echo Team

paid him in heroin?

- Looks that way.
- JASON: Huh.

You sure we could trace
that heroin to the source?

MANDY: It's already done.

The relative crudeness of the product

makes it easier to trace.

BLACKBURN: The opium in these bricks

came from a poppy farm
klicks west of Jalalabad.

Two months ago, an American task force

raided that same field

as part of an op designed
to att*ck the resources

of the Taliban revenue in the area.

Whole lot of fields were b*rned.

Hm. It's not a bad motive,

drug dealer gets pissed all of
his product goes up in smoke.

Eh, it gets better.

Echo Team did the burning.

JASON: Echo burns the fields,

somebody gets mad,

burns them.

CLAY: How can you be sure, though?

I mean,
even if this comes from the same farm,

this whole thing could be a coincidence.

Because it came from
the b*mb maker's house.

We all know that Afghanistan
is flooded with heroin.

All right?
So you can't tie this specifically

to Echo Team's actions,
is all I'm saying there, cowboy.

MANDY: I asked the same question.

It's a good question.

This is from Kamal's
workshop eight days ago,

just before the as*ault. See that truck?

This is from the poppy
farm several months ago.

Ah, it's the same truck.

The truck directly ties
the b*mb maker to the farm

and Echo Team.

We're a go for tonight.

Right on.

All right.

MANDY: These farms are usually owned

by big drug lords,
so you probably won't encounter

the owner within miles of here.

Maybe , .

Still, it's progress.

Hey, honk the horn. It's all my fault.

Why don't you get out there

Going on? It's a fender bender.

(MUSIC STOPS) SONNY: Ooh-wee.

That's someone I'd take home
to my mother, right there.

In your dreams, brother. In your dreams.

SONNY: Look at that.

She's gonna talk her way out of it.

See? There he goes.

Oh, I think she's checking you out, boy.

Oh, yeah?

Ooh! Oh, man.

(WHIMPERS) Okay, go.

- No movement.

Ancient irrigation tunnel

Thanks, Captain Obvious.

You do realize this
is my ninth deployment

to Afghanistan?

Wow. I didn't realized that.

- I'll go first.
- No, easy there. I got this.

Last thing I want to be doing is

dragging your skinny
butt out of another hole.

And...
In there.

Hey, you sell poppies

for the Taliban, huh?

Ask him if he sells
poppies for the Taliban.

(SPEAKING PASHTO)

Says he doesn't know any Taliban.

Does he own the farm?

(SPEAKING PASHTO)

- No.
- Okay, ask him who owns it.

He says his cousin
runs it for the owner.

He rents it directly from him.

Kamal?

Aresh Kamal?

That name familiar to you?

You know him? Ask him.

Says he doesn't know Kamal.

Holy hell.

Guy's basically a sharecropper, brother.

Grows poppies
'cause it pays him times more

than what he'd make growing wheat.

- Come on, look, you blame him?
- I'm saying,

even if he wanted to hit Echo Team,
you really see that guy

putting together an op that clean?

I'll tell you,
he's covering for something.

I know.

SONNY (ON RADIO): Boss,
we got something.

What do you got?

You're gonna want to
see this for yourself.

Right this way.

- Cha-ching.
- Wow.

It's more than ten million.
That's not including

the Afghani or the euros.

Looks like Farmer John

made out pretty well for himself.

That's for damn sure.

Yeah, the thing I want to
know is what's a farmer doing

with $ million?

Well, tell you what. Let's find out.

Bravo , how we doing with that farmer?

I'm working on it.

Come on, brother, money's on your land.

You're telling us you don't
know who it belongs to?

(SPEAKING PASHTO)

You're already in trouble,
you want your wife and kids

to be in trouble, too?

All right,
I'll just have her brought down here

to ask her directly. (SPEAKING PASHTO)

Vanessa, could you please bring...

- He will tell us.
- Hold.

All right, talk.

After the Americans b*rned the field,

men came and put the money here.

What men?

Says he doesn't know their names,

- just knows they're hard men.
- Taliban?

Says he doesn't know.
They put the money down there,

take it out as they need it.

He's a bank.

How often do they come?

Most days.

Have they come today?

No, no.

(DOGS BARKING)

Amanda Bell.

_

When your embassy called to
arrange for this meeting,

they should have prepared
me for your beauty.

That's very kind, General Hakan.

I'm glad we could speak in private.

(SPEAKS PASHTO, SNAPS FINGERS)

I'm always happy to help the
American State Department.

Look at all you've done for us.

General Hakan, I think we both know

that I don't actually work
for the State Department.

Always happy to help the CIA as well.

I'm looking into what happened

to our team... the one that was k*lled.

Terrible thing. And you arrived with

the team that replaced them, yes?

For the last week,
you've been sending them

to kick doors, with limited results.

Is that funny?

I was told your sources are excellent.

As a matter of fact,
that's why I'm here.

I'm hoping you can tell me something

about the man who walked
our team into that house.

Tariq Jamala.

Did you know him well?

We've crossed paths from time to time

as two of the few man of
means in this province.

But we did not belong to
the same social circles.

Do you know of any reason he
would want to k*ll Americans?

This is the question
that has plagued me.

And my only thought is that he may have

been forced into it.

A man like that,

compromised with
unnatural sexual desire,

is always a target for extortion.

Any idea who may have forced him?

Sadly, as you may have noticed,

there are many here who
are less than grateful

for our liberation.

Halani Network?

Top of the list, to be sure.

As I say,
you will find no shortage of groups

in this area who live to k*ll Americans.

Well... thank you for your time.

Miss Bell.

What happened to your men
should have never happened.

I wish you the best of luck in finding

the evildoers responsible
and bringing them to justice.

JASON: Okay, so we got what,

million stuffed down that hole?

Any ideas what we want to do with it?

- Bitcoin.
- Bitcoin?

Naima's been trying to explain
that to me. Sounds volatile.

No growth without risk, my friend.

Hey, look,
we're not investing the stuff, guys.

Well, we can go to Vegas.

You know, I got some sweethearts there

- that are missing me.
- Stop.

I say we leave the money where it is,

wait and see who comes to get it.

Back off, surveil the place with ISR?

Yeah.

That's a safe choice.
What about the family?

We take 'em with us.

JASON: Okay,
then there's no one here at the farm.

It's dark,
and the bad guys will never show up.

We can also leave them.

It's too dangerous.

The farmer's scared,
but he's not that scared.

He could warn his buddies.

Well, if they are his buddies.

If they book, we'd never see 'em.

They'd be losing their millions.

Could be pocket change to these guys.
We don't know.

Deep pockets.

I say we leave the money,
but we stick with it.

- Let's go.
- Okay, stay behind.

RAY: This is a transfer point for funds

fueling a whole mess of nasty stuff,

probably including

the m*rder of our boys.

The farmer said the bad guys

haven't been by today yet.

That's a whole lot of cash down there.

Somebody's gonna show up for it,

and when they do, personally, I'd love

to be here to say hello.

All right, so we're good.

- We stay behind.
- RAY: Oh, yeah.

TOC, it's Bravo .

Copy, Bravo . How we looking?

Well, farmhouse is secure,

as well as one m*llitary-age male,

one female and three kids.

We're thinking that it's
a farmer and family.

We also came across a
large amount of cash

in an irrigation tunnel.

Copy, Bravo . How large
a cache we talking here?

Estimate about a few mil.

Could be tied to the Echo Team hit.

I recommend we sit on it
and see who it belongs to.

It's a smart place to
stash that amount of money.

Nobody's looking in a burnt-out farm.

Bravo ,
are you proposing staying on target

until the bad guys show up?

That's affirmative.

Any idea when that'll likely be?

Well, farmer said they're overdue.

Yeah, well,
daylight's in less than two hours.

Roger that.

Bravo , mission approved.

I'll inform Colonel Martin
that Alpha and Bravo Teams

will be extending their time on target.

That's good copy, TOC.

Daylight's gonna catch 'em.

I don't know about that.

They got company, like, right now.

That was quick. (SIGHS)

- Bravo , this is TOC.
- Go for .

Be advised you've got
a vehicle approaching

from the south... looks like

a small two-wheeler, a moped, maybe.

Just one?

Yes.

There's no way he fits all
that stash on one moped.

Maybe he's making multiple trips.

How far out?

He's gonna be to you in
less than five minutes.

Copy that.

Looks like you're gonna get that hello,
Ray.

(CLATTER IN DISTANCE)

Don't sh**t.

I'm a friend.

- What's your name?
- Uh, my name is Turan.

- How old are you, Turan?
- Fifteen.

Where do you live?

Here. On the next farm. Very close.

Speak pretty good
English for a local kid.

I watch a lot of American TV.

You said you live on a farm?

Yes, sir. With my mother

and younger brothers and sisters.

To feed my family,
I must work on the fields.

/ , I work.

For such a busy man,
where do you find all the time

to watch all that TV?

I don't sleep very much.

Which brings us to this moment.

Yes, it is like this.

I heard a rumor in town about the money.

With so much, I thought no one
would notice if I took a little.

Just this small amount will
feed my family for a year.

The rumor that you heard,
about the money, where'd it come from?

TURAN: Some boys in town.

JASON:
They say who the money belonged to?

TURAN: No.

What do you think?

If you saw those boys on the street,

would you be able to point them out?

Sure.

JASON: Do you know their names?

I say we put a tracker on the moped.

Let him go, see where he lands.

Except, we let him out of our sight,
he tells somebody,

and nobody comes, picks up the money.

And we're at a dead end, again.

Yeah, well, that's the risk.

It's not one I'm willing to take.

JASON: Kid speaks really good English.

I just don't believe a word he says.

He does have a flair for the dramatic.

That boy does manual labor every day,

his hands sure don't show it.

So what are we thinking?

Put him on a leash.

See who else shows up.

- Yeah?
- Sounds good to me.

Farmer did say he's overdue for a visit

from the cash fairies.

(EXHALES)

What are you thinking?

I think we put a tracker on him,
cut him loose.

- Yeah?
- Yeah, keep ISR on him.

See where else he goes.

I think the risk could
be worth the reward.

Okay, I buy that.

Go put a tracker on the moped.

- Do it. Excellent call.
- All right.

He gets a case of beer.

Hey, TOC, this is Bravo .

Go for TOC.

Guy on the moped's a m*llitary-aged male.

He was detained without incident.

Requesting permission to release
him to see where he goes.

Copy that, Bravo ,

Sounds like you're suggesting
a follow on the ground.

What's your means of transport?

There's a car out back.

We're gonna borrow a car.

Copy that.

You're good to go.

The signal is live.

Copy that.

You're free to go.

You're taking me to jail?

Would never do that to your mother.

As long as you understand that
none of this ever happened.

- You got it? You never saw us here.
- Yes. Yes, sir. Very good, sir.

- Thank you. Thank you, sir.
- Scat. Go. Get out of here.

(ENGINE REVS)

He's headed East, toward J-Bad city.

JASON: So much for the farm.

All right, in meters,

you're gonna be crossing
the bypass road.

Copy that.

All right, he turned right, meters.

(DOG BARKING)

My granddaddy's wheelchair
is faster than this thing.

Like he's got nowhere to be.

Let's hope he has
somewhere important to be.

He just turned right.

meters.

The target parked his moped in an alley.

Proceed meters and take a right.

Heads on a swivel, boys.

He entered the building on
the north side of the alley.

Lost visual contact.

TOC, what are we seeing?

There's no movement, far as I can tell.

Let's do this.

Yo, we better hurry up, man.

- Call to prayer is coming soon.
- SONNY: Kick it or cr*ck it?

Keep it quiet.

Whoa. Yeah, looks like we
jumped the g*n on that whole

"m*llitary-aged male" thing.

This is not one of the secrets

I thought you'd be keeping.

We found these in your house.

We know you work as a messenger.

Who do you work for?

I know you speak English.

Talk to me.

Where is Shahpur?

Your brother?

He's here.

At the base.

We're taking care of him.

What is the time, please?

Why?

I don't think you fully understand

your situation in here, Turan.

What's your real name, by the way?

I'm called Dorri.

Okay, Dorri.

We have evidence that ties
you to t*rror1st activities.

Specifically,
money paid to k*ll American soldiers.

You're obviously...

a smart young woman.

Resourceful, and brave.

If you do the smart thing now,

if you talk to me,

I can help you, and Shahpur.

Believe me, it's your best option.

These envelopes are all
from a man named Isaad.

He's a paymaster, a middleman.

Yeah?

We know he runs couriers
for the Taliban.

He's been in here for
questioning a few times.

In October, and then again in July.

We could never hold him,
'cause we didn't have enough evidence,

but now we do, thanks to you.

How do you think he's gonna feel
about that when he finds out?

You know what his friends do, right?

They k*ll people.

That is w*r.

There has always been a w*r here,
with or without Isaad.

That's true.

We were orphaned four years ago,

me and my brother.

I only work for Isaad so
I can take care of him.

I dress like a boy so
I can be in the world

the way a girl cannot.

And where do you take the envelopes?

Different people.

Is this one of the men that
you brought envelopes to?

He was.

He is dead, now.

This man

built a b*mb that k*lled
six of our friends.

We need to find his associates.

I-I don't know what they do.

I only think about getting to tomorrow.

Every week,
I take a little extra from the kariz,

and I hide it.

Pretty risky, don't you think?

There is no life in
Afghanistan for a woman.

I want to take my brother to America.

What would you do once you're there?

I would go to school,

and get a job that is
not working for K*llers.

What's wrong?

I am to meet Isaad today with the money.

What time?

Soon.

So our guys are gonna be
outside the whole time.

Once you get out of there,
start heading towards

the spice market.

Somebody's gonna be
there to pick you up,

bring you back here, okay?

Okay.

And be sure not to mess with that.

It's gonna draw attention to it.

- Hope this works.
- Yeah, trust me.

The kid can take care of herself.

Question is, can you trust her?

MANDY: She's not political,
she's just trying to survive.

And I've got something she
wants more than anything.

A ticket out of here.

That's promising a lot.

Yeah, I know.

This envelope contains the same

amount of money you're supposed
to give Isaad, from the kariz.

Let's go over this one more time.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

Now get in there and
get that information.

Salaam alaikum.

(ISAAD SPEAKING PASHTO)
KHALID: Isaad's telling her she's late.

Wants to know where she's been.

She is sorry.

Here's the money.

Please forgive her.

He wants to know where she has been.

She says her motorbike d*ed.

She had to walk.

(ISAAD SPEAKING PASHTO)

KHALID: He's telling her if she's lying,
he'll k*ll her.

(DORRI SPEAKING PASHTO)

KHALID: She's telling him the Americans

picked her up outside the city.

(ISAAD SPEAKS PASHTO) (DORRI SHOUTS)

(DORRI SPEAKING PASHTO)
She's sorry she lied.

She was afraid.

He asks, "Where did they stop you?

At the farm?"

(DORRI SPEAKING PASHTO) No, she says.

They stopped me on the road
before I reached the farm.

(EXHALES)

I told them a story.

They let me go.

He told her he has been
hearing more drones overhead.

He believes the American will come soon

and discover the money.

He wants to know why the
farmer believes this.

She says the Americans have been raiding

the neighboring farms,

but only in the night

because they are too cowardly

to show their faces in the daylight.

He's asking her what she's doing.

(PHONE KEYPAD BEEPING)
Telling her to stay right there.

"Yes, it's me, brother.

You need to come for
your payment immediately,

before the American find it."

(ISAAD SPEAKING PASHTO)

"Yes, of course. I will join you."

"Once we separate your share,
you will help me move the rest".

TOC, this is Bravo .

Isaad's meeting some
clients at the farm.

Sounds like these might be our guys.

We're on our way back to the farm.

(SIGHS)

Let's go.

Be advised, you have two vehicles

approaching from the south.

meters, closing at speed.

JASON: Copy that, TOC.

Alpha ,
let me know when you got visual.

FULL METAL: Roger.

It'd be a lot easier if our
guys would've stayed outside.

Wait for the bad guys,
drop into the tunnel.

Toss a few grenades in after 'em.

MANDY: Well,
whoever this cash belongs to

bankrolled the hit on Echo Team.

We k*ll all these guys,
won't have anybody

to tell us who that is.

FULL METAL: Bravo , we have visual

on two enemy vehicles.

Estimate eight to ten men.

Copy that. Here we go, boys.

Remember, we want Isaad alive.

- Jace?
- Yeah.

What'd he ask you on target?

He asked me what I thought.

- And you told him?
- Yeah.

Number one thing a team
leader asks of his men...

always tell him the truth.

You did that.

Why would I have a problem?

Now...

if you'd done it to
get in my business...

stick your nose up my friend's butt,

push me from what you
feel is my lofty position,

if this was personal,
then I would have a problem with that.

But you didn't and you
weren't and it wasn't.

Right?

Right.

So we don't.

Have a problem.

Right.

Now, it's still my set.

All right.

Get it done.

Yup.

WOMAN: Next time. Next time.

I promise. (LAUGHS)

Is this the breakfast club?

Oh, yeah.

Very exclusive, as you can see.

What do I have to do to join?

Oh, apparently, you're already a member.

Perfect. Amy.

- Nice to meet you, Amy.
- Mm-hmm.

So what do you do around
here to earn your bacon

besides play traffic cop?

(CHUCKLES) I, uh,
I save the world from bad guys.

I have a good time doing it.

- Hmm.
- How about you?

Gardening, mostly.

- Gardening?
- Yeah.

- Tomatoes.
- Tomatoes?

Yeah.

Would it hurt your
feelings if I told you

I do not like tomatoes?

They have a very thin skin.

Well, you haven't seen mine yet.
(SCOFFS)

So, let me guess. You're not Army.

No.

No, you're picking your teeth
there with those Air Force boys.

So I'm thinking maybe you
are something special.

- Like you.
- Just a gardener.

That's right. Just a gardener.

Well, I used to be DEA,
now I do a little contracting.

Keeps me out of trouble.

Doubt that.

So, who do you work with?

Let's see. Black Rock? No, Rex.

(BOTH LAUGH)

No. Xeon Tactical Security.

Xeon Tactical Security.

Wow, you know what? You are special.

Makes two of us, Jason Hayes.

(CHUCKLES)

Okay, things got a little creepy there.

No. It's not creepy.

Steve Porter

told me about you.

Told me you'd come
through to take his place

when he rotated back home.

You knew Stevie.

I knew all those Echo Team guys.

There's a rumor going
around that last night

you and your boys made contact

with the bastards that k*lled them.

I'm not at liberty to discuss that.

- I'm sure you understand.
- So, it's true, though?

Echo Team, they got targeted

'cause they b*rned that field?

Again, not at liberty to discuss.

Right. I'm just saying,

I'm happy that someone's getting payback

because it could have easily
been my guys out there

burning that field.

Hey, I've been looking for you.

Yeah, I heard. I was just, uh...

I ran the death photos of the bad guys

from last night.

I got a positive ID on seven of 'em.

Let me guess. Taliban.

Al-Qaeda.

Oh, wait a second. Al-Qaeda?

That doesn't make any sense.

I mean, what...
why is Al-Qaeda targeting Echo Team?

Steve never said anything about that.

I mean,
it was never mentioned in a single AAR.

Maybe the Qaeda guys
just needed the cash,

hired themselves out
as contract K*llers?

Well, getting paid to k*ll Americans...

That's a jihadi's dream come true.

Still brings us back to the
problem of who was paying them?

Who owns that field?

Yeah, who was paying 'em?

Well, whoever it is,
he's got millions down that well.

Only owes the Al-Qaeda
guys a few hundred thousand

for the Echo Team hit.

So,
why is he trusting them with his money?

How does he know they're
not just gonna take it all?

Who scares a bunch of hard-core jihadis?

That's who we're looking for.

How are they treating you here?

Everything's cool.

JASON: That's good.

I want you to understand something.

What you did for us was very brave.

What happens now?

Am I going to jail?

No. The information you
gave us was very valuable.

It'll help us in getting
our friends some justice.

We're grateful to you.

Here.

Should help you and your
brother for a while.

Maybe get you a new laptop.

I can help you more.

I know other men.

Lots of them.

I'll give them all to you.

You sure?

Because you do realize
what happens to you

if these men catch you.

DORRI: I know what they do.

I can fool them.

I fooled you.

Mm. She could live on the base.

Come and go as a woman.

Live as a girl, work as a boy.

I don't want money.

I want a ticket to America.

Well, that's...

that's gonna be tough,
I mean, even for us.

But I think we can swing it.

Thank you.

What about Shahpur?

What about Shahpur?

(GASPS)

You can't promise her we
can get her to the States.

As long as she tells me who's
behind the Echo Team hit,

I can promise her anything I want.
