05x05 - The Theory of Revolution

[bunniefuu]

They yank me out
of the biggest jamboree

of the year and right in
the middle of the night...

How am I going to teach
responsibility to the Young Bisons

if I'm not even there?

And don't think that
they can't track me down.

And if they track me down, that
means they can track you down,

and if they track you down,
whose cover is blown, then, huh?

Murdock, General, Carla.

Excuse me, ladies, I must go.

Lauren, why don't you give
your swimming suit to Carla?

All right, ladies, we
will see you next Friday.

This obviously explains the huge tabs
you've been running up all around town.

$25,000 in just
the last few weeks.

Yeah, well, I never
could say no to a bargain.

Especially when Uncle Sam
is picking up the tab.

What is this doing here,
Mr. Santana?

Those are expensive
surveillance cameras.

Chalk up another $5,000.

I don't know why
you bother, Stockwell.

We said we'd go on the
missions, we gave you our word.

The honor system seems to
work with my troops, General.

This house of cards couldn't
keep us for five minutes.

Check your security.

Where are Able Six
and Able Seven?

Unable. This way.

Here are your boys, General.

They decided
to sit this dance out.

Spoilsport.

Shall we adjourn?

I don't get it. How could a two-bit
dictator like Alexander Martien

dare to take three
US citizens prisoner?

Well, apparently
their boat, The Lucy,

strayed into San Marcos'
territorial waters while on a cruise.

And for this
they need our services?

President Martien would like
to turn this minor infraction

into an international incident.

Man, isn't that the way?

No respect for power.

Hey, isn't that Ted Burke?

The rich guy who owned
all the movie studios?

And advertising agencies
and race horses and...

He and two other men,

Rick Balcolm and Dan Sellers, are
now Martien's political prisoners.

Obviously, this administration can't
be involved with another Grenada.

The United States cannot
att*ck that little island.

So if we go in,
we're on our own.

Oh, I love that.
I love it, I love it.

Well, certainly
we will not abandon you,

at least not for 24 hours.

That's very considerate.

As Americans, you can expect to be
sh*t on sight if you're discovered.

How do they feel
about Puerto Ricans?

And black people?

I'll arrange for a submarine
to drop you at San Marcos.

It will rendezvous with you
in exactly 24 hours.

If you're not there to meet it,

you and the mission
will be abandoned.

Well, we'll need a bazooka,
a*t*matic weapons,

some fire grenades,
some stun grenades.

Unfortunately, we cannot provide
you with US m*llitary equipment.

If it were left behind...

Then they would know the US government
was involved. Yes, spook 101.

We do have a few pieces
of Korean equipment,

which I think
is in working order.

No way, General. I mean, we don't
go in without good equipment.

Hey, man, B.A. Baracus
don't fight with no toys.

We've got some of our own
we can use.

Okay, guys.

Don't tell us you're going
to get sick now?

How'd you guess?

Because your skin pigmentation

is the color of a ficus bush.

Take deep breaths, Frank.

No can do, Johnny.

Frankie Santana don't ride
the waves no more.

From now on we fly or we drive.

Hey, man.

If it's a choice between
flying or taking a boat,

we're going to take a boat.

Well, I'll take that choppy boat
ride over some smooth flight any day.

Frankman
is one flexible dude, okay?

Murdock, keep track
of the hours till rendezvous.

You got it.

All right, let's go!
Prison's north of here.

Colonel, Colonel,
my Bison training tells me

that this is
fungi Musci moss here,

which means north is that way.

I'm sorry, Murdock, but the
compass says north is that way.

B.A., take rear guard.

We are searching
for the rebel Juan Alvarez.

We have information
that he is from this village.

Expose him as the traitor
that he is

and no harm will befall you
or your children.

Where is Juan Alvarez?

Search everywhere.

Are we just
going to stand here and watch?

B.A., we've got 21 hours to accomplish
our mission and make that rendezvous.

We haven't got time
for cleanup detail.

You do not fear me, huh?

Perhaps you are a rebel, huh?

- Take her.
- No!

No! No!

Stop it! No! Stop it!

Now, that guy's
really out of line.

Give my brother.

Leave her alone!

You want someone to take back,
take me. I am her brother.

We'll be back.

Well, you have to admit he earned his
Bison badge for bravery on that one.

Well, he certainly didn't
earn it for being smart.

You guys watch behind us.
B.A., come with me.

Is Maria going to die?

No, but she's real sick.

Bonita, all of you
live here alone?

Where are your parents?

They gone. Soldiers take
them away, long time ago.

Why? What did they do?

Nothing,
they were honest people.

President Martien takes many
people. Most we never see again.

How does this guy get away
with this stuff?

Bonita, the prison.

Can you show us
a good way to get there?

I can.

I know this island up and down.

Hannibal, Maria's fever
is getting higher.

I don't think
she should be alone.

Well, I can stay.

No, you've got to look
at that prison real close.

B.A., here. Give her these.
Stay a little while.

We're at 0800 hours, Hannibal.

Got it.

So how much time
does that mean we have?

Twenty hours. I thought
you were in the paratroopers.

Seven guards in a watchtower,

four on each wall,
all with a*t*matic weapons,

an M60 at the gate
with two a*mo-handlers

and a gallows.

Well, at least we know
we're in the right place.

Yeah.

I like it. It's going to be
a piece of cake.

Colonel, the other side of the
prison is identical to this one,

except that there is wild
foliage growing up the north wall.

They got enough searchlights to hold
a premiere at the Chinese theater.

How're we doing for time,
Murdock?

We're at about
1030 hours, Colonel.

That means we got until 1300 to
get somebody inside that prison.

That'll give us till 1500
to find Burke and spring him.

Wait a minute, so that leaves
how much time to get to the sub?

We'll have four hours to get to
the beachhead and then another hour

to row out to the rendezvous
point about 1900 hours.

Colonel, that leaves us a
cushion of less than one hour.

That's not much,
but it'll have to do.

Now, why can't we just say, you
know, like, 8:05, like normal people?

Like 2:30.

Hey, here comes Martien
in a Rolls-Royce

with some guy in a Russian
uniform. Take a look at that.

Russians?

That must have slipped
Stockwell's mind.

Wait until you see
the rest of our island.

The resources,
the natural harbors...

I think you will be
more than enthusiastic.

Uh-oh. Something's happening.

Get them! Get them,
and bring them to me!

Let's get out of here.

What is your name?
Answer me!

We will find out
what we want to know.

Not from this one!

To come this close, this
man has lost his fear of me.

Am I right?

You have no fear. Hmm?

You are willing to die
in silence for your cause?

Leave,

and tell your rebel brothers that
at least I respect their bravery.

That's the guy
who started the all fireworks.

These must be his friends.

I tell you, guys, we're only
here on a rescue mission.

If you are not working for Martien,
why did you attempt to pursue us?

Things were a little
confusing back there.

I mean, it wasn't exactly
the kind of situation

where you trust the
first person you run into.

I say the risk is too great.
I say we get rid of them now!

Now, that would be
a big mistake.

Yeah, a big mistake.

It's B.A.

This changes nothing. My
men can still cut you down.

I'd think twice before I did
that. B.A.'s got a short temper.

Mr. Good Guy.

You tell them.
You tell them, Chihuahua.

These are my friends.

They help Maria.
They gave us food.

When the soldiers
tried to take me away,

this man risked his life
to save me.

Please, listen to them.

You may call me T?mas Jefferson.

That seems appropriate.

I am the leader
of the revolutionary forces.

This is my Capit?n,
Se?or Alvarez.

Martien has three
U.S. citizens in his prison.

We're going to get them out.

Nothing can interfere
with the revolution.

No offense, but
from what I've seen,

this isn't much of a revolution.

Hey, man, you're fighting
hit-and-run with rocks and sticks.

That ain't no way
to fight a w*r.

We will endure
as we always have.

In five years of fighting,
Martien has failed to destroy us.

Or you've made
no progress against him.

It does depend
on how you look at it.

We do not need outside help.

The revolution is a battle
for the people of San Marcos.

You know, that Russian

who was getting the grand tour,

isn't here to buy a condo.

You can never stop
the will of the people.

If Martien is snuggling up to the those
guys you can kiss this revolution goodbye.

The Russians will not
affect your mission, Colonel.

There was no need
to tell you about them.

Well, the people down here
are pretty upset about it.

Now, It may take us
an extra day.

Colonel, you are to get the men out
of prison and meet the sub on schedule.

You are to have no contact
with the civilians

or the government of San Marcos.

Now, do it my way.

Is that understood?

You were breaking up
pretty bad there, General.

Sir, I don't read you,
but I'll talk to you later.

You're in a defensive posture.

What you need are a couple
of decisive victories.

As you can see,
we are hardly equipped

to att*ck Martien's
forces directly.

That's a bad attitude.

We're going to have
to work on that.

Make sure you tie
that hitch real tight,

so we can keep the tension.

A half hitch in time saves nine.

It is very kind of you, Frankie, and
your friends to do so much for us.

You are very special.

Yeah, well, when you've been doing
this kind of stuff as long as I have,

it sort of becomes second
nature, know what I mean?

I only hope I can
express my gratitude.

Oh, we'll think of something.

All set, Face.

Couldn't you have found me
something in eelskin?

Okay,

you've got five grenades,
the best M14 we've got,

50 rounds of amm*nit*on, a
synchronized watch, and this.

What's that?

This is a second-degree
Woodfox badge.

Now, normally there is a
requirement of a five-mile walk

but I think I can swing it
with the board.

Now, don't say anything.
Let's just share the moment.

- What you...
- Share it!

Your man Santana could pass,

but the others would be
spotted instantly.

That's true, but Face
has got to have a back-up.

Very well,
two of our men will go

with Face and Se?or Santana.

We're fighting
a revolution here.

We cannot sacrifice two
of our men for their mission.

If they destroy the weapons,

they are doing us
quite a favor, Juan.

I will go.

Oh, no, no, no.
Forget that.

I'm not even crazy
about me going.

Frankie, this is my country,
I believe in the revolution,

and I will fight with the
others for that belief.

Okay.

Bueno. Bonita will go.
Juan, you will go as well.

I will not be lead
by foreigners.

Fine, you lead.

That guy sure seems
to be carrying a grudge.

The man Martien m*rder*d
today was Alvarez's brother.

Juan.

It's inexcusable. The weapons
I gave you in good faith

are destroyed by guerillas,
which you have said don't exist.

Comrade Kerensky,
as I have told you

this is the work of a
small group of malcontents.

They only got as close as they did
through the negligence of soldiers.

The same soldiers,
who allowed the att*ck

on your motorcar.

I will be blunt.
I am here for the boat.

I don't care whether you have an
insurgency or a group of malcontents,

but if you need
more troops, I can...

No! We do not need
foreign intervention!

We have a deal.
The MiGs for the boat.

And let me remind you, Comrade,

the U.S.S.R. is not the only
customer I can deal with.

Do not underestimate
the President.

He does not
make threats lightly.

He will have what he wants
on his terms only.

And you seem to be
much more rational,

more aware of the world arena.

Perhaps I was bargaining
with the wrong man.

You could be
very powerful, Commandant.

And you, Comrade, could be sh*t.

Mission accomplished, Johnny.
Scratch one weapons deal.

But there is bad news. Your man
has been captured and beaten.

Martien has him in his custody.

Martien has him
just where we want him.

Take it easy. I got a
tennis elbow, all right?

Do you mind?

Come on, at least give
me back my watch, huh?

You're lucky he let you
keep your shirt.

Burke, Balcolm
and Sellers, right?

Guilty. Who are you?

Well, my name is Templeton Peck

and believe it or not,
I am here to rescue you.

- Ah!
- You did?

Yeah, well, I know, it's
not, it's not quite the same

as the cavalry coming over
the ridge, is it?

Then you're from the company?

Company?

Its okay, Peck, it's okay.

The cell isn't bugged,
we checked.

Yeah, and besides, if you think
Martien doesn't know already

that we're with
American intelligence,

well, you've got a lot of
surprises in store for you.

Oh, no, no, no.
Don't tell me.

You guys are American
intelligence agents?

That's right.

Well, that explains why
Kerensky is here, doesn't it?

Anatoly Kerensky is here?

Yeah.

Damn it, he's here
to get the boat.

The boat you guys
were captured on?

I thought Martien blew that up.

No, no. We were gonna
scuttle it ourselves

but we didn't have enough time.

His gunboats
got to us too quick.

And Mr. Peck,
that boat is just jam-packed

with top-secret,
submarine detection gear,

I mean, enough to just blow
the entire ocean grid network.

And Kerensky is the
Soviets' top troubleshooter.

If he gets
his hands on that boat...

We gotta get out of here.

Well, in two-and-a-half hours,
we'll be on a submarine

headed for the Mayport
Naval Air Station.

So, well, we can worry about
your boat then, okay? Right now...

It's time for my daily walk around
the grounds, isn't that right, guys?

How do you like the watch?

Radio Faceman is on the air.

It's a pretty snappy tune, too.

Yeah. Right on time.
How is it coming, B.A.?

Right on schedule, Hannibal.

Good. When we get to the
prison, we can triangulate

and pinpoint
Face's exact location.

Amazing, the way
your men work together.

You caught us on a good day.

All right, now, B.A., you got the
walls, Frankie's got the rockets.

Murdock and I
will hit the gate and try

to cover the guards on the
watchtowers. It's gonna be tight.

My men and I
will att*ck the gate.

Brief me on your plan.

Now, that's a welcome change.

You've helped us
when you didn't need to

and your men have risked their lives
for our cause. Now I wanna help you.

Besides, I can think of nothing
that would humiliate Martien more

than an escape
from his impenetrable prison.

I want our revolution
to be a part of that.

This could get interesting.

Goodbye, Mr. Frankie.

So long, champ.

Now, I don't want to hear it,
Bonita, okay?

We figure the old Presidente
might try to get the jump on us,

so it's off
to the high country for you.

I am not afraid of him.

Tell me about it.

You know, to tell you the truth,

when Hannibal asked me
to come on this mission,

I was a little unsure.

Not scared, mind you,
just thoughtful.

But you, you just jump
right in there.

I've never met a girl like you.

When you think of our people who
have been imprisoned or k*lled,

it was a small thing.

Still, the old Frankman
was impressed.

For five years now, this w*r has gone on
and our people have hidden in the brush.

But now everything is so big.

Well, look. Martien's
on the defensive.

The A-Team is here.

What dictator wouldn't quake
at that thought, huh?

You make light of everything.
But I can tell.

I can read your soul, Frankie.
You are scared.

My father gave me this.

It is for good luck.

I will probably never see you
again and I want you to have it.

You will probably need it
more than I will.

Look, Bonita...

Just go.

I will be back.

I promise.

Come on, move it, man.

Hannibal said we got three hours to
finish our work and get back to the sub.

Yeah. Right.

You do have a choice, you know.

You can talk to me, tell me
what I want to know and live,

or you can persist at being stubborn,
in which case I will k*ll you.

And I guarantee,

it will take hours
for you to die.

You have been on him for some
time, Commandant, and yet, nothing.

Listen, young man, your life
is over, do you understand?

Everything you and your spies
have attempted has failed.

Now, I am the master here.

This is my country and
you live or die at my whim.

Take him back to his cell.

Not a word of this
American agent to Kerensky.

Oh, no, no, no, no.
Not the boots again.

Okay, okay, okay.

How does it look, B.A.?

Looks good, Hannibal.

Oh, no.

What's the matter,
what's going on?

Well, a major part of our escape
plan has just gone into the toilet.

Got it.

Stand by.

Colonel Smith,
the Russian is leaving.

Let him go, Alvarez.
Stick to plan.

As you say.

Hey, compadre.

Hey, could you tell me
what time it is?

They're attacking here!

Oh, I was beginning to wonder.

Have I ever let you down?

Ted Burke.
Thanks a lot, Colonel.

Man, did you ever see
such a thing of beauty?

Perfect trajectory.
Up and over.

Colonel, we don't hit
that beachhead in 15 minutes,

you better break out
the water wings.

Let's go.

I will have those spies back.

I don't care how long it takes.
I don't care how many people die.

I will have them back!

Mr. Good Guy!

I saw you land.
I knew you'd come back here.

Chihuahua,
you can't come with us.

El Presidente, he go crazy.
He took people away.

He say if he not get his prisoners
back, he start k*lling them every hour.

What about Bonita?

Soldiers take her and Se?or
Jefferson. We need your help.

So what do you say,
Mr. Good Guy?

Hold on, Smith. As much as we'd like
to, we can't get involved in a civil w*r.

Okay, Burke,

grab the boat
and get it to the sub.

If we're not out in three hours,
call an air strike and split.

Yes, sir.

Let's go, guys.

Remember that sound, Jefferson.

Next time that door drops,
you won't be hearing it.

Perhaps.

No one's coming
to your rescue, Jefferson.

Your American friends
have abandoned you.

And your pathetic little rebellion will
die with you at the end of that rope.

My people, I have asked
you all here to witness

the termination
of a vicious plot,

a plot to take San Marcos
away from me!

Us.

The seeds of discontent...

I'd dry that tear for you,

but it would be
out of character.

- Se?or Smith?
- Don't look.

of our Caribbean homeland.

Is that you?

You don't think I'd let that
slime ball really hang you, do you?

of the United States

that have poisoned certain
segments of our sovereign nation.

God bless you.

on the threshold of destiny.

The elimination
of these traitors

is one more
triumphant battle won

for the freedom
of Third World nations.

T?mas Jefferson, Bonita Gallegos,

Alberto Musalen
and Roberto Ribas,

once good people, have been
infected with the disease of dissent.

For that they must die.

Those imperialists from
across the ocean

who will look upon San Marcos
with greedy eyes should take note.

Do not underestimate
the will and determination

of our m*llitary forces.

We have come a long way.

The people of San Marcos have
been forced to labor tirelessly

to bring our country...

This is gonna be
for you, Bonita.

The gem of our efforts
is soon to be mined

and polished to glitter

in the rays of the sun.

How many more? How many
innocents will die because of...

Hey, Santana, you done here yet?

B.A., genius and artistry
cannot be rushed.

Hey, man, if you don't hurry
up, those people are gonna die.

Like I said, nothing here that
can't pass for perfection.

So what's going on?
Didn't you find the boat?

Martien got the boat
in the building out back.

So what's the problem?

Now all we gotta do is wait for our boy
Murdock to come through with his part.

That's the thing
that worries me.

A new triumphant battle

won for the freedom
of Third World nations.

It is a new beginning of dawn

of the long hard night
of the longest day.

Executioner,

do your duty.

I don't believe this.

Anytime, Murdock. We're
cutting it a little close.

Come on, Murdock.

I love the smell of revolution
in the morning.

It smells like Hush Puppies!

What is going on?

I love this stuff.

My palace.
They're attacking my palace!

How could you let them
get away? After them!

This is Bison Leader to the combined
m*llitary forces of Presidente Martien

offering you a rare opportunity
to lay down your weapons

and join the Bison Troops
of San Marcos.

It's the big maintenance building
out back. Get it, crazy fool!

Okay. I gotta tell you,
from up here

the local flora and fauna
is quite remarkable.

Murdock.

My boat.
They're going for the boat!

No!

Martien, I've been saving
this little puppy just for you.

This is for all the rotten things
you ever did to Bonita and her people.

I call it "The Frankie Flip."

I love it
when a plan comes together.

Regardless of me, you should
come to the States, Bonita.

I mean, I'm not in a very stable
position right now, but I will be.

You should see Hollywood.

It's like a
multi-billion-dollar playground.

And New York, you'd love that.

Frankie, I have seen San
Marcos die and be reborn again.

There is so much to be done
and I want to be a part of it.

But I will never forget you.

Don't lose this, okay?

I may be selfish, but I don't
want you to forget me, either.

I do not know if we'll
ever be able to tell you

how much you've done
for our people.

It may seem like the hard part
is over, but I have a feeling

that our challenge
is just beginning.

Thank you.

Colonel, what do you suppose
Stockwell's gonna say

about us knocking this country
sideways?

I don't know,
but I'm gonna enjoy it.

Hey, Hannibal,
the sub is on the way.

Murdock, what? What, what?

What? What are you
looking at? I...

For outstanding dedication
to the Bison code of bravery,

you are now

a Baying Wolf, First Degree.

I'm a... I'm a Baying Wolf.

I've always suspected it.

I can't believe this is the second time
he pulled me away from my Bison troops.

I mean, how are they
gonna learn anything?
