03x09 - Jennie

[bunniefuu]

It takes a great deal of courage to die.

Sometimes, it takes more courage to live.

What are you doing out here with these kids?

We were out hiking. Government
troops destroyed our village.

If these kids were to die today,
they could all be replaced tomorrow.

I've always taught them life is sacred

but every one of them has got lot more
courage than most adults I've ever known.

Why hasn't he checked in yet?

- Gustavo?
- Si, señor.

Yes.

This is Dominic Santini.

El Gato.

You have brought some very fine equipment.

This is Miss Caitlin.

From this moment on I will never have to say

the flies fall into my wine.

Welcome to my country.

Hola!

months ago,

I would have said, arm
, of my men with this

and we would eat freedom
for Christmas dinner.

I want this American scientist
of yours out of my country.

These tanks he has designed,
nothing can stop them.

I do not understand how
the men survive inside.

Grenades, bombs, even fire.

Because there are no men inside.

These tanks are known as ALVs,
Automated Land Vehicles,

and they're operated by computers.

Well, how is it this man is
involved with the Russians?

They kidnapped him about a year ago.

Hey, I got a great idea.

Why don't we just take her in,
the of us together?

No, no señor.

Dom listen,

the camp is too well fortified.

There are only places we can
take Airwolf in for the rendezvous.

It would be here or here.

You'll be safe here.

It's only a few miles from Santa Teresa.

I have enough soldiers well hidden
there to make a real offensive,

if we eliminate the tanks.

We'll be there.

And now, for crying out loud, if
you get into any kind of trouble

will you get on the horn and yell?

Señor Dominic, there will be no trouble.

La señorita Caitlin and
I are destined to meet

for dinner and mountain
wine in Santa Teresa.

Without flies?

I will explain everything over dinner. Yes?

Yes.

Gato.

Will you keep an eye on him for me?

Good luck.

Gracias.

Until dinner, adios.

I don't see any tanks.

I thought you said they kept them
guarded inside the compound.

They always have until now.

I hope your Mr. Keith knows
where the hell they are.

My name is Hawke. I'm sent by the Firm.

Yeah well, I don't mean
to seem ungrateful,

but the Firm has botched
rescue attempts on me already.

If you don't have enough firepower
to cover me, please just forget it.

Colonel Ross made a very nasty
promise that he was gonna execute me

if I try to escape again.

If you just shut up long enough and
listen, we'll get outta here.

I need to know the locations of the ALVs.

I don't know where they are.
Ross moved them out last night.

He's planning some kind of combat
test called Operation Blackstone.

Blackstone, what's that supposed to mean?

I'm a scientist, not a soldier.

Come on, run.

Run.

You have leave him or we'll be k*lled!

Yes Hawke, do as he says Hawke.

Like hell I will.

Amigo, I'm El Gato. I still have
a few of those lives left.

Let me do what I have to do.

I cannot fly Airwolf.

My country, my people, they need
you now more than they need me.

Go amigo, go. Just remember me on Christmas.

Let's go.

Go, go, go. Both of you.

Viva la revoluciõn!

Come on, run.

So, the legend dies.

A man has d*ed.

I hope you're right about the legend.

But now, I'm afraid we have
a more pressing problem.

Our prisoner is gone.

Don't worry Colonel Mioga,
I'll have him back by morning.

And I'll have the satisfaction
of sh**ting him myself.

How much further?

I'd say about miles.

Through this?

Where's our cover?

Until we hit the rendezvous,
it's just us , friend.

This is insane.

That's why it just might work.

Damn it!

The radio took a b*llet, it's worthless.

I thought this whole area would
be crawling with soldiers by now.

Do you think we lost them?

No.

Don't move, put your hands up.

She means it.

Drop your p*stol.

What the hell is going on?

You're both Americans!

You wanna call off your infantry
out there, we'll discuss it.

My infantry?

Oh, of course.

This is Raf. That g*n is
old, it doesn't work.

Irene, Lorena, Clemente,

Eluid, Javier and Solita.

She says they're pleased to meet you.

She's just learning English.

Captured by a bunch of deaf kids.

They're hearing impaired and they're young,

but every one of ‘em's got
a lot more courage

than most adults I've ever known.

Lady, who are you?

Jennie Burton. And you?

Stringfellow Hawke. This is Jason Keith.

What are you do’n out here with
these kids? There's a w*r go’n on.

I'm their teacher.

We were out hiking. Government
troops destroyed our village.

We've been practicing survival
skills and baseball.

Have you seen any tanks
or heavy a*tillery?

Yes, we've seen tanks, of ‘em.

Armed with rockets and flamethrowers.

They came with the soldiers and…

well, now there's noth’n
left to go back to.

Did they see any of that?

They saw it all.

Get down, get down. Come on.

They're gone for now.

They're head’n east.

Whatever you're here for,
good luck. We better hurry.

Where do you think you're go’n?

Santa Teresa. If the… if the soldiers are
going east, we can get through now.

We'll be safe there.

That's just one patrol.
What about the others?

My kids are good outdoorsmen, but
we can't stay out here forever.

No.

They might just make it
if they have an escort.

Are you serious? We have
a rendezvous to make.

Listen, I feel as sorry for this group
as you do, but you have a job to do.

Look, we didn't ask for any help.
We'll be fine, just fine.

There's a pass about a mile from here.

Make real good cover.

All right.

String. String, come in String.

String, come in please.

Nuts.

I don't like it. He should’ve
checked in by now.

Well, I'd be a lot more worried about
him if he wasn't with Gustavo.

The way he smiled at you, I bet
that cat would go through fire

just to collect that dinner.

He was just being polite, Dom.

Polite!

You kind of like him, don't ya?

It's not every day you meet a legend.

You know, there could be a lot of
reasons why they haven't checked in.

Yeah, and every one that I've
thought of, I don't like.

Maybe we should go look for ‘em.

No, we'll sweat it out.

But if they are not here in
exactly hours and minute

I'm gonna make sure
that all hell breaks loose.

I'll be right beside you.

Come on, let's go.

You know, these kids are someth’n else.

We just ran a whole miles
and not one of them stopped.

They'd run all day if I let them.

Why don't you, or would that
offend your sensibilities?

You know,

you're really pushing your luck.

Listen Hawke,

this may not sound very nice to you,

but if these kids were to die today,
they could all be replaced tomorrow.

I have abilities that cannot be replaced,

abilities that the free world may
depend upon in the near future.

I didn't ask for these talents,

but I have them and I've got to
live up to my responsibility.

Keith, sit down and shut up.

Do it somewhere away from me.

You see them?

No, but it doesn't mean they're not there.

They could be spot’n us from any place.

He seems like a very frightened man.

People say awful things
when they're frightened.

Why make excuses for him?

I've hurt people without trying.

I find that kind of hard to believe.

Where did you get all these kids?

Well, Solita was the first.

I found her hiding in
the streets on Granada.

Her parents were very wealthy,
big house, servants, the works.

But they supported the Freedom Front.
They were ex*cuted.

That locket's all she's got left.

I wanted to get her as far from the
city, and those memories, as I could.

So we came up here, to the mountains.

And people heard about me, and the others
just sort of appeared, one by one.

It must have taken an awful lot of patience.

Only because they're kids!

The other is just a language barrier,
which you're about to break.

Go ahead, try it.

Now you can tell them yourself.

Yeah, but what did I say?

Let's go.

Follow me.

How come Central America?

All my life I wanted to be useful.

I tried a lot of different things, but I
was never really successful until now.

I think he's say’n it's time for us to go.

You got it.

Get ‘em under cover.

This isn't a game! You
could've gotten us all k*lled!

Don't you understand?

It wasn't a game.

His brother was k*lled last month
by one of those. He was only .

He wants his own g*n. He wants
to fight them with you.

We don't have time for this.

I do.

Tell me how to say this to him.

He can read lips and hear
some, Hawke. He'll understand.

It takes a great deal of courage to die.

Your brother had that courage.

I believe you do to.

But sometimes it takes more courage to live.

That spotter plane is gonna
turn around any second.

Let me go. What are you doing?

Bushmaster.

A very deadly snake.

The kid led me right into it!
He could’ve gotten me k*lled!

Raf was just trying to warn you. He
probably noticed it before we passed by.

I don't think he spotted us, but keep
the jamming system on just to be sure.

Right.

hours to go.

Just hours to go.

Why hasn't he checked in?

If you ask me that one more time,
you're gonna make both of us crazy.

I'm sorry. I know you're as worried
about him as I am. I'm sorry.

It's not the waiting that
bothers me, it's the wondering,

it's not knowing

I mean, did they get in the camp, did
they get out okay, where they are now.

All that stuff about the flies and the wine.

You really don't know what that means, huh?

No, do you?

Sure.

Dom!

Well you see, down here they an
expression that means bad luck in love.

"Flies in the wine." He sees you, no more
bad luck. He thinks you're beautiful.

Dom, I've got something on ground radar.

They're headed toward the
south/south-west, about , yards.

How many?



?

There should be . One of
them didn't make it.

I'd better go down and meet ‘em.

Dom, wait a second, there's . There are !

No, there's more than . It looks
like a patrol headed straight for us.

Distance?

yards.

What's the bottom line?

yards.

What is it?

It's just a feel’n like I used to get.

Like someth’n is there watch’n you.

You can't see ‘em, they're just wait’n.

Keep those kids together.

Shouldn't we be at that village already?

I can't sh**t!

I will.

That feeling was pretty right on.

It wasn't.

Not gone away.

If there are any patrols around,
they might've heard that sh*t.

Dom, yards.

That's it, then. Let's
get this baby outta here.

A patrol raided her village, her farm.

- She said she’d be damned if she was gonna
let them get her cow.
- Hawke, we gotta keep moving.

She says, if we're gonna
eat freedom for Christmas,

we have to fight, one way or the other.

El Gato.

You've heard of him?

He gives these people hope, year
after year. Maybe one Christmas…

He's dead, you know.

Keith was being held by the government.
He d*ed help’n me get him out.

I try so hard to focus on the positive.

There's so much death.

I never thought I could k*ll anyone.

You just did what you had to do.

I have this dream of building a real
school for the hearing-impaired kids,

where they can learn and grow
and develop all their talents.

I've always taught them life is
sacred. What can I teach them now?

Maybe that it's not perfect.

They'll probably understand
it better than you do.

Come on, teacher.

You all set? Move ‘em out.

One hell of a day, Colonel. El Gato dead.

Our final testing will wipe out his
little army and the Americans.

Moscow should be very pleased.

With both of us.

This is sister Agnes Marie.

I know her. They heard about
our village being destroyed.

Ask her if she's seen any government troops?

- No.
- She says no.

I knew we'd be safe here.

I told them about El Gato.

I think we better go now.

I've still got that same feeling.

We haven't seen a patrol
since early this morning.

Well maybe we lost ‘em.

Maybe they don't give a
hang about Santa Teresa.

Or maybe we just walked into a big trap.

What's this?

Some kind of pre-Colombian relic.

The villagers say this was
a Mayan outpost at one time.

Outpost, huh?

Señor.

El Gato,

you saw him die.

Yes.

He saved my life and this man here.

Keith,

you said that Ross was gonna test the ALVs,

called it Operation Blackstone?

That's right.

Get these kids in that building over there.

Where the hell is String?

Gustavo said he had some
troops in Santa Teresa.

Maybe they got into trouble
and had to go there.

We're on our way.

You're bleeding.

I'll be okay.

What did you expect, your
priority list? This is it.

Will you shut up
and move your butt, Keith?

Come on. Come on.

Welcome to the real world.

I'll try.

Come on, Dom.

Arm for air-to-surface.

You got it when you want it.

Hawke!

You okay?

Gustavo, is he alright too?

Cait, in that cafe over there are some kids.

They're with a friend of mine
named Jennie. She's been hurt.

They could really use your help.

Hawke!

Cait, I'm sorry. He's dead.

Not El Gato. No, I don't believe it.

Dom, Copperhead.

Roger, Copperhead.

How are we do’n?

- Full combat mode.
- I've give’n you all she's got.

Are you sure you're okay?

Well a little wobbly, but I'll be fine.

Will I ever see you again, Hawke?

You've got a standing invitation, anytime
you want, to visit me up at the lake.

Take me up on it. I mean it.

And I've got a feel’n that you're gonna
be build’n that school pretty soon.

You might think about this village.

Santa Teresa might be the perfect place.

When everything gets repaired.

I mean it really is a pretty little village,

all I have to do to teach history
is take the kids for a walk.

Stringfellow Hawke. Who could
ever forget a name like that?

I'm gonna miss you, Hawke.

I'll miss you.

Now there’s a sight for sore eyes.
