want to sneak up on her.

He's making a call.

I've obtained the address.

Zone 12 is home to 7 major gangs,

innumerous subgroups

all fighting for control.

Is it wise we go it alone?

Don't worry. We going in the back way.

No sirens, no lights. No ones expecting us.

We'll be out before

they know we're there.

Sir, they're on the move.

Good. Good. Notify me

when they reach the target.

Yes, sir.

Yeah. Put out the word. The ones who

killed Dext will be in the Zone tonight.

Wait for my signal. Yeah.

- Still have a lock on the location?

- It's an unregistered Paygo phone.

No guarantee it's hers.

Maybe it's Porter's dry cleaner.

There are no registered

dry cleaners in this area.

They've entered the Zone.

Good. Soon as they make

contact I need to know.

- Are we still getting transmission?

- Yes, sir.

What about the manual override option?

You think you could switch

them into manual override?

Of course.

You want me to do it now?

No, no, no.

Just wait for my signal.

Yes, sir.

I hear that Helen Jacobs is more

than just a mere visitor to the Zone,

she is a vigilante.

The thing about the Zone is, you can

pretty much get anything you want.

It's outside the law,

but it's a price you have to pay.

Stay there too long and

you're affected by the radiation.

Criminals can come and go but the...

people, regular folks, get stuck there.

Knows the people she's fighting for.

Relax. Relax.

How's the operation going?

Like clockwork, sir.

The officers are nearly at their target.

Tell me again, about this.

Well, it's always been our goal

to rid this zone of gang lords.

Last week's raid was

step 1, this is step 2.

Once Officer Hammond and his

partner acquire their targets,

they'll be 14 miles into the zone.

Due to the contamination,

there's only one safe way out.

Fortunately for us, that safe way

leads them pass each gang territory

one by one, by one.

It'll be kill or be killed.

Now, the beauty of this, sir, is

they'll be taking the

gangs out for us, one by one.

And if they should be taken out,

then we'll be justified

in going in for retaliation.

It's a win-win, sir.

But what if they make it back?

There's no chance

of that happening, sir.

That woman...

that they're after,

that's not my daughter.

She is trying to destroy me.

Sir, no one is going

to let that happen.

We have a manual

override on the droid,

so if it comes to that,

he'll take 'em out.

But, why not we just let

them do our dirty work for us.

Clean up the zones.

The city needs more

men like you, Officer.

Thank you, sir.

Who are you guys?

You can just call us the

future of law enforcement.

Then I think the

city is in good hands.

- We are within 500 m of the signal.

- Okay.

We go on foot from here.

We're on official police business.

There is nothing to see here.

Return to your dwellings.

Why don't you just call

the rest of them out?

It is better we make our presence

known, than to surreptitiously advance.

We'll see about that.

Are we close to the signal?

Within 50 yards.

- Call it.

- I'm sorry.

- Call the phone.

- Calling.

Over there.

Great.

We need to get back to the vehicle.

Plan B.

What is Plan B?

Can you call HQ?

And now you're

considering calling for backup?

Look, just call it.

- Something's interfering.

- Great.

A throw-away cellphone works, but a

trillion dollar robot can't get through.

- I am not a robot.

- Figure of speech.

Sorry for calling you the R word.

It appears that I'm having

a block from the other side.

So why don't you just call 911?

Police services had been

discontinued in this zone.

It was a joke. You should've asked

the wizard for a sense of humour.

Look, let's just get to

the car and call for backup.

Who is the wizard?

Stop! Stop! Get down.

- Helen Jacobs.

- Yeah.

We're here to escort you in.

Thanks. But I think you're going

to be the ones needing an escort.

How did you know about the bomb?

I've been down here

long enough to know

that when someone

crawls under a parked car

they're not a

welcoming committee.

- Thank you.

- Don't mention it.

We were told you maybe

coerced into a sex ring.

That's tactful.

Yeah, and if I was,

it probably would be more

of a public relations issue

than any concern to

my personal welfare.

It was mentioned.

Damn it Andy,

would you back off.

Listen, you need to come with us.

- Am I under arrest?

- Well, no.

Have you committed any crime

that may warrant an arrest?

Would you, would you shut..

Look, you need to

come with us right now.

No, you need to come with me.

Now.

That explosion is going to draw

everything out of the woodwork.

I can't be responsible for

what happens to you guys.

Is that the best video you got?

Yes, sir. That's the

best we can do right now.

- And we can't get audio?

- I'm working on it.

Halt! That's her.

I'll take that as a positive ID.

- Did we take out the vehicle?

- Negative, Sir. That wasn't us.

Oh, they're gonna have a fun night.

Hey, it's a go.

Put out the word.

Dext's killer would be in Zone 12,

Grid 16. Headed east on foot.

Now you do whatever

you want with the girl.

But you make sure

neither of them get out alive.

Okay. Okay, look.

Nothing to see here.

That's not what I see.

Look, you're not our concern.

Kindly step aside.

Oh, we will. As soon as

we're finished with you.

I'm going to pretend

I didn't even hear that.

Cause, I'm trying to

be a nice guy, okay.

Now there are a couple of

ways this is gonna go down,

and none of them

turn out so good for you.

You're interfering with police business.

Stand aside, or you

will be subject to force.

Andy. Andy. I got this.

Look. We're not after you but we can

be if you wanted to go down like that.

I could charge you all

with obstructing justice.

Stand down or you

will be subject to force.

Stop!

You have a hammer.

I have a hammer too.

Mine is better.

Oh yeah, oh yeah. You are one

hell of a negotiator, aren't you?

That was a lethal weapon.

That was an axe. This is LA.

If I shot everybody that came at me with an

axe, I'd never get through the paperwork.

Besides, the plan was to

go in and out, under the radar,

and not ring the damn dinner bell.

Your negotiations would have

been with the same results.

Oh, you're so damn

confident aren't you?

Confidence is outside of my parameters.

So this is outside your parameter.

And you. You're trying to

kill all of us. You included.

If this isn't your territory,

why are you here?

Okay. Come on.

- Woh.

- That's okay. They're with me.

Come on.

Ready?

That's okay, just... show them,

show them your baby.

My scan show that the

child is completely normal.

Yeah, we can see that,

but what does it mean?

If this environment were radioactive,

you wouldn't be able to

have babies without mutations.

You are correct.

Mutations resulting from

radioactive fallout occur prior to birth.

So you're saying...

People are not getting

sick because of radiation.
