Department of State.

"Be advised. Reports

that a Western facility

"or U.S. installation may be

attacked in the next week."

Read and destroy.

It is so nice to

be back in Benghazi.

Much stronger

emotional connection...

Green, spacious,

beautiful compound.

Reconnected with

February 17th...

Security is a big concern.

Saw people taking photos

of the compound today.

Feel unsafe here.

My guys are concerned.

...guns at arms bazaars...

Voiced it to Tripoli.

It's crazy.

Hey, Nick?

It's the second time

I've noticed it.

Hey, Nick, Dave?

See if Feb 17

saw anybody at the back gate.

Well, get somebody who speaks Arabic

so we can ask them a question.

Yeah, come on,

put her on the phone.

Hey, baby.

Kid's discovered

she likes Doritos.

Yeah!

Yeah, that's okay.

You can eat it.

You can taste it.

Yeah, buddy,

look at your eyes.

Look at that.

Who does he look like?

What?

Daughter's drinking.

You drank when

you were 15.

Little girls

don't drink.

Disneyland?

How lucky are you guys?

- What are you guys gonna ride?

- Jumbo.

Dumbo,

not Jumbo. Dumbo.

Em, did you thank Mommy?

Say thank you?

- Yes, we did.

- Yes.

I don't think you did.

Yeah, I'll show them.

Hold on. Baby, that's not me.

That's mean.

Look at this.

...mate for 1.2 seconds

and the act is complete.

Why would you

send that?

Anyway, if it was, it'd be the

best three seconds of your life.

We miss you.

Be safe. We love you.

Yeah, I love you, too.

What's he doing?

I want to eat those fleshy arms!

Come on!

What about

the life insurance?

This is the second notice.

You gotta...

You got to pay it.

Okay, okay,

I'll figure it out.

And what are we doing about the

oak tree in the front lawn?

The removal's $700...

No, it's $1,200, not $700.

The guy's trying

to rip me off.

Becky, Becky, listen. I'll

be home in two weeks. Okay?

So I'll take it

down myself.

Then we're really gonna

need life insurance.

I know, I'm...

I'm trying.

I'm coming home soon.

- Welcome to McDonald's.

- McDonald's!

Guys, chill out!

Turn it down!

Calm down.

Mommy's driving. Okay?

We'll take 25

Happy Meals, please!

No, we don't want

25 Happy Meals.

Sir, can you just hang on

one more second?

We're so hungry!

I know you are.

Just hold on.

But we want the toys.

Just give me whatever you want.

Six of whatever.

I've got six

hungry kids.

- We don't do that here.

- Throw it all in there.

Daddy, we're having

a baby!

- What?

- Emily!

Becky, what did

she just say?

A baby. We're having a baby.

Another baby?

A baby.

How many Happy Meals

did you want?

You can give me whatever you want!

I don't care.

Chicken McNuggets

or cheeseburgers?

We're having a sister!

No,

that's it, please.

About 1,500 people gathered

outside the American Embassy

here in Cairo...

So, anything new

back home?

...to voice their

discontent and anger

about an American-made

amateur film

they say is insulting

to the Prophet Muhammad.

No?

Nothing?

Good talk.

They say that

although it's amateur,

it is very much insulting

toward the prophet Muhammad

and that is their red line.

What up?

Heard about Cairo?

Enlighten me, Boon.

"All the gods,

all the heavens,

"all the hells

are within you."

- Within me?

- Within you.

I might have to

think about that one.

- Be here all night.

- All right.

You know, I do have a gun in

my cubby and I will use it.

Good luck.

She's having dinner

with her contact.

We'll be back at 2200.

Yeah.

Well, I'm still waiting to

hear back from State on that.

Hey, listen,

I just wanted to say

I'm sorry about today.

I don't know

what I was thinking.

I guess with what

we got going on,

I just wanted everything

to be right, you know. I...

I just wanted to

do it right, but

I'm so happy. I...

I can't believe it.

Um...

I miss you guys

very much.

I wish I was home.

I just

wish I was home.

It'll knock

your teeth out.

This is some

good guava shisha.

Yeah, I got you.

Is that

the front gate?

Holy f***!

Go jock up!

I'm getting the Ambo!

I'll take the TOC!

Follow me, Vinnie!

Watch your six.

What's going on?

Chris! Get your body armor on!

Get into the safe haven! Go!

Go!

Hurry!

My God.

They're everywhere.

What should we do?

Where's the M4?

Sean!

Dave, get your weapon

and move fast to villa.

How many?

All DS be advised,

there are thirty...

...maybe 40 Tangos coming

through the Charlie-1 gate.

Hello?

Hello?

It doesn't work.

Phone! I need a phone!

Alec, call the CIA,

call the annex!

GRS, all GRS,

muster in the CP right now.

I thought it was

gonna be a peaceful night.

State's under attack!

State's under attack!

Let's go, man.

DS Scott, do you have

hands on the Ambo yet?

Moving package and guest

in the safe haven.

Get down there.

No, I need more

information than that.

What do we got, Chief?

How many?

Twenty to 40 attackers.

State personnel separated

in several positions.

What's that?

I hear AKs.

RPGs.

That's not good.

- What do I do?

- Get back down!

We're going back.

What's going on

out there?

Listen up.

None of you have to go.

But we are

the only help they have.

Two vehicles, staged and ready.

Let's go! Move! Move!

Are they coming in?

Jesus! There's nowhere to hide!

Get in the other room! Go!

Get in the other room!

Tripoli?

Tripoli, Benghazi

is under attack.

The Ambo is in

the safe haven.

We are overrun.

We need

immediate assistance.

We need some f***ing help!

Magariaf pick

up the phone yet?

I got Op Center

at State in D.C.

U.S. Military

AFRICOM holding.

Yes, AFRICOM.

Firing and chanting.

Front gate.

Local guards ran.

Twenty to 40 Tangos,

that's a substantial force.

We got to go

right now, Chief.

We have no authority

at the consulate.

We have no jurisdiction

in this country.

We're not supposed

to be here.

But we are here.

We're coordinating

with 17 Feb.

They're gonna

take the point.

Absolutely not. You have a U.S.

Ambassador at risk.

Send us, Chief.

You've got to send us.

The Ambassador is

in his safe haven

with his body man.

You're not

the first responders.

You're the last resort.

You will wait.

We have no military

assets in country.

We have two paramilitary

assets in the country.

One just a mile away

from the Ambassador.

And the other?

I need a bag full of money

and a flight to Benghazi.

Scott,

there are Tangos

right outside your door.

Do not move.

Do not make a sound.

- Amahl!

- Yes?

If we link up with 17 Feb,

none of us knows the language.

We need you, man.

Come on.

Hey, hey, what? Tanto, I'm

not a combat interpreter!

I'm not weapons

qualified.

- What is this?

- Now you're qualified.

Get your helmet

and armor. Let's go.

That dude ain't

coming back.

Are you actually

trying to f*** me over?

No, that's not what I'm saying at all.

Just hold on!

Now, listen to me.

- Losing the initiative, Chief.

- Will you just hold on?

You're losing it. You

understand how that works?

Stand down.
