American Assassin Page #5

Hurley was with him.

Something happened.

I'm going after him.

I need your help.

We gotta go.

Stan.

I've looked forward to this.

I'm sure you have, Ronnie.

I wanna show you something.

All right.

Savages. Right, Stan?

But you know something?

I don't blame them.

I blame you.

Never would've happened

if you would have

followed orders, Ronnie.

"You go down out there,

you're a ghost."

"You're a John Doe."

"You get captured?"

Oh, you remember.

That's very gratifying.

Thank you.

You made me proud today, Ron.

You should've come for me.

Ten men would've died.

You put 10 men's

lives in danger,

'cause you couldn't

follow a f***ing order.

- F*** you.

- F*** orders.

- F*** the mission!

- F*** you.

This was me. I was your

boy, I believe that.

You made me believe that.

Ashani had their people

tracking Minister Behruz's

secure cell phone.

So, we find Behruz,

we find Hurley.

Mitch!

Oh, yeah, look at that.

Did you learn that in Aleppo?

No.

You always told us

what to expect, Stan.

Now, where's the

rest of your team?

Come on, Ronnie, really?

Don't call me that. Where's

the rest of your team?

Your new boy out

there, he on my tail?

Ronnie, Ronnie, Ronnie.

There's your first mistake.

You never start with

a real question.

You start slow.

You get inside your

subject's head.

Stan, I'm gonna ask

you one more time.

There's your second

mistake. Number two.

You don't say, "one more

time." You already...

Damn!

Now, what's that

third mistake, Stan?

Huh? What is it?

Go ahead! Go ahead!

I got nine more! I like this.

I like it. Go

ahead, bring it on!

You motherf***er!

Ronnie wants to know

if I got a team outside.

Right, Ron?

If it's safe to move your bomb.

Are we being followed?

Where's the new me?

I've done my research.

I know all about him.

"The new me..." Oh,

you mean Mitch?

You know, Mitch,

he's unpredictable.

You never know about Mitch.

He might be here,

he might be there.

He's like you, but

you're a real Section 8.

Enough.

Schizo mom.

Where are they?

- Loser dad.

- Where are they?

God!

Where's the rest of your team?

Half-wit mom, psycho dad...

Where's the rest of your team?

- You're pond scum.

- Where are they?

Pond scum! You're f***ing...

I'm sorry about your handler.

Ashani was my uncle.

I'm sure it was Minister Behruz

and General Rostami

who had him killed.

They want nuclear

war with Israel.

We tried to stop them.

My brother and father

both died fighting them.

Corviale. Turn here.

You know what my

real mistake was?

I trusted you.

You made me feel like I

was the Second Coming.

And you acted like my father.

I trusted you and I trusted

the United States Navy.

U.S. of A. Does it, it's

gotta be good. Right, Stan?

Except

nobody told me the business

y'all are really in.

You create monsters.

That's just what you do.

Those people who did this to me,

you think they're barbarians?

Bullshit.

Where's the decryption

I asked for?

Rapp grabbed her smartphone

before we could get any of it.

And we can't find him.

Surveillance cameras

picked up Rapp

taking out our agents

five minutes ago.

What the hell are you doing?

There's not a single

thing happening here

that you didn't make happen.

God bless f***ing

America, huh, Stan?

Hoorah!

Hoorah!

I can tell you where Mitch is...

What's that third mistake, Stan?

Mitch... I can't hear you.

F***!

Third mistake, never

get too close.

Finish your personal

business here.

Your work is done.

The bomb is armed.

- Timer is set up?

- Yes.

He's playing you.

Bomb's not for

you, it's for him.

It was his plan all along!

Dead zone.

We're not getting

any signals here.

Come on. Come on.

Wait a second.

What are you gonna do with it?

No, Stan.

"What are we gonna

do with it?"

Why are we in Rome, Ronnie?

I like Rome.

It's good food.

Never, ever thought

I'd die in the field.

Ain't it crazy?

I always figured it

would be, I don't know,

some cabin in the

woods with my dog.

Me?

I think I want water.

There's just something

peaceful about dying at sea.

All right.

Let's get it over with.

No, you'd like that,

wouldn't you?

I ain't gonna kill you.

You're gonna live to see

the crown of your

creation, Stan.

Thousands of Americans

are gonna burn.

All because of you.

Enjoy the show.

Get ready.

Go.

Please help me.

Annika.

Your family were

very well respected.

They were my friends.

Bastard.

I knew them very well.

Please I beg you.

Whoa!

We've got an explosion detected.

Here.

A half click off the

Fiumicino waterways.

It's underground.

- Delta One, go!

- Let's go.

Get a chopper out there.

You're not supposed

to be here, Rapp.

Yeah, what are you

gonna do, fire me?

There's another passage down

there. He's got the nuke.

You gonna be good?

Go. Go!

Put the gun down.

Or she's dead.

I want to see my family, Mitch.

No, Annika, you don't.

I want to see my family.

Come on, Mitch. Be nice.

She wants to live.

She wants to see her family.

Put the gun down.

Annika!

The bomb can't be stopped.

Just like you couldn't stop

that beautiful girl from

dying on the beach.

Irene.

The bomb's on a boat.

Hurley?

How do you know?

Ronnie wanted to die at sea.

Is the Sixth Fleet

out on maneuvers?

Oh, my God.

Bring up ISR feeds.

Get me eyes in the sky

over the coastline

and put the Sixth Fleet

on nuclear alert.

Tom.

The target is the Sixth Fleet

and it's 25 miles offshore.

It's a shame.

The last thing your girl saw

was you not saving her.

General quarters.

All hands, man your stations.

This is not a drill. I

repeat, this is not a drill.

Inbound, small vessel-borne

nuclear device.

Man decon stations.

Didn't Hurley teach you anything,

little brother?

To never make it personal.

This isn't personal.

Sh*t.

The bomb has a timer

and a release trigger.

We take out his boat,

it'll detonate.

If it goes off above

the waterline...

Disaster.

There'll be fallout

all over the mainland.

USS Flynn... Prepare to engage.

The boat is turning, sir.

Who's driving that boat?

Rapp.

Go.

- Sir?

- Go!

What are you doing? Hurley.

Hurley?

Trying to get our boy to

throw the bomb in the water.

Flynn, you are clear

to fire when ready.

Do not fire, Commander.

The boat is turning.

If we don't engage, that

guarantees detonation.

I understand there's a risk,

but this is the best

chance we've got.

Sh*t! God damn it!

There he is.

Get me on that boat's

marine bandwidth.

Rapp!

Rapp!

Can you hear me?

Pick up the radio!

Throw the bomb overboard!

No way, sir, I gotta get

further away from the fleet!

Rapp!

For once in your life,

take a goddamn order!

The Sixth Fleet is about

to blow you to hell!

Command, Delta Two, the

bomb's in the water.

Commander, hold your fire!

The bomb's in the water.

Flynn, hold fire!

Hold fire!

Got less than 30 seconds.

All right, go! Get outta here!

Jesus.

Brace for impact.

Sir, yes, sir!

Holy sh*t.

Hold on!

Brace!

You shouldn't have come for me.
