American Ultra Page #6

All transport vehicles...

Otis,

how'd you get tied up in all this?

Don't answer that.

What if it's the guys who have Phoebe?

It definitely is.

- Okay, then I'm going to answer it.

- No, Mike.

- Hello?

- Hello.

Who's this?

You first.

F*** me. It's you, isn't it?

- It's Mike Howell.

- Yeah. Who's this?

Is the house not all on fire?

No. Man, the house

is like basically normal.

Okay.

So what's the plan now?

I mean, like, like do you surrender?

F***! You got me.

I surrender.

Why don't you come on down

to the Max Goods parking lot,

and accept my surrender.

- The Max Goods on Wilson?

- Yeah.

Yeah, is that one

across from the tire shop?

The Ten Minute Tires?

What? Yes! That Max Goods.

So what happens if I meet you there?

Like, how do you accept a surrender?

Do I need to sign something?

Your girlfriend's here.

Would you ever like

to see her alive again?

I don't know.

So if I just took out my gun

and blew her f***ing face off,

you'd be cool with that?

No, that wouldn't be cool.

Is she really there with you?

Mikey?

I'm sorry.

But I'm the tree.

I've been the tree the entire time,

you're the car.

Okay?

I love you.

So you can leave, you can go wherever

you want and they will f***ing never...

That was really f***ing lame.

Mike, what are you doing?

I'm going to save my girlfriend

from Max Goods.

Get out! Get out of the f***ing truck!

You're all now Code-3 right now!

Go! Go! Faster! Go!

Go! This is it!

This is the moment

that I have trained you for!

This is not a f***ing

dress rehearsal, okay!

This guy is deadly.

He is silent and he will sneak up on us.

Are we clear?

F***!

Laugher, get out here!

Hey, Phoebe! Phoebe!

- Hey, Phoebe...

- Mike!

I just wanted to say that I love you.

And that everything is going to be okay.

I mean, not like perfect,

obviously, but better.

Like, we'll probably

have to get a new house,

- and also cars...

- You two, can you kill him?

- Please, kill him.

- ...but I'm coming to get you.

And this will all be over.

Soon-ish.

Phoebe!

Yates, give up!

Just let me go, that's all he wants!

Go! Go!

- Laugher, grab her.

- F***!

Phoebe!

Laugher, end this.

Don't hide!

Come out. I really want to talk to you.

Come out!

Come here!

You know...

What? What do I know? What do I know?

Why don't you tell me what I know?

You're f***ed!

Am I? How?

My pathetic stoner boyfriend...

He's going to kill you and you know it.

You know what?

You...

I think you're a lot like me.

F*** this!

F*** you! They're going to be

laughing at your pothead ass

tomorrow morning at debriefing!

You know what, Tarzan,

why don't you go

burn with your f***ing ape?

You're scaring me.

Will you please come out?

Can we just talk?

I wanna talk...

I'm sorry.

I can't control it.

The things that they did to my head.

They made you like they made me.

But you're better than me.

Who told you what to do?

Nobody.

That must be nice.

Who's the b*tch now, f***er?

Enough, Lasseter.

Enough!

Mike?

Mike?

Baby?

Phoebe...

F***.

Do you want to go home?

Okay.

Okay.

She said yes!

She said yes!

Man, come on, just give us, like, one...

- On the ground!

- Perfect.

Congratulations. In the f***ing woods,

in the f***ing rain!

That is the level of f***-up

you have achieved!

I just want to say, sir, that Peter Douglas

should not be held responsible

for any of his actions

in the last 24 hours.

Douglas will be dealt with

when he's dealt with.

You, on the other hand,

you directly interfered

with a government operation.

And as a result, you caused

the deaths of innocent civilians.

Is that correct?

- Yes, sir.

- You're absolutely right, sir.

Thanks to Lasseter activating asset Howell,

seven American citizens are now dead.

In an operation that wouldn't...

This is an operation

that you created and spearheaded

without any authorization,

is that correct?

Yes, sir, but you have to understand,

I was self-starting.

- Excuse me?

- Did I make some mistakes?

You know, I did.

Did I take some shortcuts? Sure.

But in the end, I was just

doing what I needed to do

to create a cost-efficient exploit

of a system already put in place.

And if I'd pulled it off,

you'd be thanking me. Right?

Come on, you'd be

f***ing thanking me, right?

- Yeah.

- Okay.

Thank you.

Now I'm...

I don't know if this is appropriate,

but please, please do not kill me.

I'm your source.

When I called you to notify you

that the sweep was happening,

I did it out of respect and courtesy,

and you've made me regret that now.

It was not my intention

for you to act like a child

and try to save your puppy.

The puppy was going down,

I was notifying you of the puppy's death.

But the puppy just sh*t

all over everything!

You have a crazy, scary rabid puppy

that murders people

and will still need to be put down.

You understand that? Correct?

Yes, sir.

You better pray you can

find a way to turn this into a win

and pull a miracle out of your ass!

Because if you can't...

That's you.

You already have your miracle, sir.

My program worked.

Wiseman beat Tough guy.

Mike Howell eliminated

17 Tough guy assets single-handedly.

That makes him the most effective asset

we've ever seen

in any of the Ultra Programs.

Ever. In 60 years.

Pardon me for saying it, sir.

But that is a puppy worth saving.

That is a $400 million puppy.

And you have him

sitting in a holding cell right now.

You're just going to put him down?

Where do you want to begin,

Agent Howell?

- I'll be up in a minute.

- Okay.

Hello. Hi.

They took the bait.

Something funny?
