- I know.

If the situation gets out of hand,

they could take me and Julie out.

Don't worry, son.

- There'll be extra money in this mission.

- First of all, I'm not your son.

Second of all, did it occur to you I might wanna

do somethin' 'cause it's the right thing?

Hey, I'm the one with the dead brother.

I'm the one who misses his girl.

And I'm supposed to put up with

your sh*t 'cause you're a spy? Big deal.

Every woman on the planet's a spy. Man,

you guys can't even find Saddam Hussein.

You know, if you told a woman

right now at 8:
00 in the morning...

that her husband was sleeping

with Saddam Hussein,

she'd be able to find Saddam

by 8:
00 that night and say,

"Saddam, don't you ever

come around my house no more!"

Hey, I did you a favor, okay?

You called me.

Now, if you ever

talk down to me again,

I'm gonna beat your ass so bad you'll be

the only guy in heaven with a wheelchair.

You better act right

'fore you get smacked right, b*tch.

All right, the show's over.

Go back to work.

A bomb on American soil. That's

a nightmare we've always talked about.

How do you think they got it here?

You'd be surprised

what you can send by air freight.

Did we?

Did we use his girlfriend?

No, but I'm sure Yates would

if he'd thought of it.

Hello?

Listen closely--

No, no! You listen closely!

I gotta hear her voice!

I wanna hear her Voice right now!

You are in no position

to make demands, Mr. Hayes.

But if it gives you pleasure--

No, no! Don't hurt her!

Tell me what you want!

They want him to wait outside

his apartment for a car to pick him up.

We've initiated positions here,

here and here to set up a tail.

- How do they shake us? - We can assume

that they think we're shadowing them.

Right. So they may move him 10 or 20

times before they think they've lost us.

Okay, we got the grey Ford van.

Grey Ford van.

- I wish we didn't have to do it this way.

- I'm sorry if my plan...

lacks the perfect precision with which

you've handled the case so far.

Radiation detection units

are scouring the city,

and we've issued portable ABG

spectrometers to all surveillance teams.

We need to talk worst-case scenario--

evacuation readiness.

Let's have the National Guard

standing by.

National Guard,

this is Comm Centre 4.

Stand by for instruction.

Roger that,

Comm Centre 4. Standing by.

They're pulling into the

abandoned St Francis Hospital, sir.

Take positions.

We have 6 viable entry points.

Move!

- Where's Julie?

- Quiet. Do as you're told.

Where's Julie?

- I hope you're going to play ball with us.

- That's Dragan.

Hey, man, I ain't doin' sh*t

till I find Julie.

What the hell was that?

- We've lost the audio with Hayes, sir.

- Alright. Move to the contingency plan.

- Yes, sir. - We can't afford

to take any chances here.

Hit your entry points hard on my command.

If it breathes, it dies.

- Hold it! I think we've got something!

- Entry teams, pull back!

- Entry teams, pull back!

- Here he comes.

Okay, they're moving him.

Everything's going according to plan.

Back on plan, people!

Keep your distance, folks.

They may do this dance all day long.

Get off!

Well, you're on your own now,

Mr. Hayes.

Sir! I'm getting

the signal back with Hayes!

- See if you can clean it up.

- Will do, sir.

I'm heading down

to communication central!

Looks like they're

headin' back to Jersey.

I wonder what the hell

they're doing.

Sir, what are you doing?

Your eyes are going

to activate this computer.

The only question is,

will they still be in your head?

- Where's Julie?

- She's lovely.

And she will stay that way

if you cooperate.

- Open your eyes, Mr. Hayes, and

look into the computer! - No!

- Open your damn eyes, Mr. Hayes!

- No!

They're tryin' to scan his eyes.

Jesus Christ, the bomb is in the van!

Entry teams, the van is hot! Move now!

Cut away his eyelids.

Sir, they're gonna take out Jake.

What are we doing?

- It isn't Jake.

- How do you know?

They had to have a decoy.

Bring the subject out with

a bag over his head. You do the math.

Faster! Go!

Hold your fire!

Subject is down.

Repeat, Jake Hayes is down.

It's not him.

The bomb's not here.

It's done.

Thank you.

See you on the other side.

- Did you use the password?

- Password?

Hey, I don't speak terrorist,

but I only counted 8 number sequences.

You're gonna need the 7-letter password

to activate the mechanism.

Bullshit.

- No, see, that's-- that's 8 letters.

- There's no password.

The bomb is already armed.

Hi.

What took you so long?

I almost killed somebody.

- Did they arm the bomb? - Yeah, this one

just called in the enabling codes.

I gotta find Julie.

Okay, the bomb's hot.

There's a fail-safe measure

built into the detonator.

- Should give us a short countdown period.

- How short?

- On the outside, 20 minutes.

- What's the inside?

5 to 10.

- Did they say where the bomb was?

- No. She's not here.

When we find the bomb,

we'll find her.

Did they say anything? Just think.

- Try to remember. Come on. Think.

- Redial!

- They called in the codes!

- Okay, hold on.

Give me the address

to this number:
431-974--

I need this address.

Listen, listen.

Gimme this number. Gimme me that address.

I need it now! Not later, now!

- Right now. Yes, sir. - Okay.

It's coming, Oakes. It's coming, yeah.

-Listen up, Oakes.

-89 East 42nd Street!

- 89 East 42nd.

- Wait a minute.

- That's Grand Central Station!

- That's 3 blocks from here. Come on!

Support can reroute

and be there in 20 minutes.

Get out of the way!

CIA coming through!

Out of the way! Move, move!

Get out of the way!

Get out!

Get out of the way!

Get out of the way!

Get out of the way!

Move it! Move it!

Out of the way! Move it!

Out of the way!

All right, the call originated

from over there.

Could be anywhere.

This is one hell of a place to blow up.

Time Square's a few blocks away.

- Power grids, subway stations... - The whole

infrastructure of the city could collapse.

- I'm getting something here.

-What's that?

This is a low-energy

gamma scintillation probe.

- Yeah, I left mine's at home.

- The case is lined with lead.

We'd only get a hit if we

were within 100 square yards.

- So we got a hit, right? - Yeah, well,

the auto-range indicates it's here.

-In here? Where? Here, where?

-It's right here. The signal's constant.

It's under us! Come on! Let's go!

Please evacuate the building.

Proceed to the nearest exit.

- Signal's getting stronger!

- CIA! Need your help! Come on!

Out of the way!

Move, move, move! This way!

- This way! Come on!

- Out of the way!

Come on!

We're real close?

- What's in there? Open it.

- Lost luggage.

- This lock's been tampered with.

- Get away from the door!

Jake, get the bomb. I'll cover you.

Why don't you get the bomb,

and I'll cover you?

Okay, I'll get the bomb.

Okay. Go, go!

-Julie!

- No, no. Hold on. Hold on.

Jake?

-Jake, where are you?

- I'm coming.

It's the final phase. 3 minutes, and
