Battle Los Angeles Page #6
Neither can these men, all right?
Yeah. They're your men.
All right, staff sergeant!
That's how you do it!
- That's retreat, hell!
- That's right.
Who the hell's John Wayne?
Everybody, eyes open!
Stay alert!
Thank you for that.
It's nothing.
What's that mean, "retreat, hell"?
During World War I, an officer from
our regiment was ordered to retreat.
He said, " Retreat, hell.
We just got here."
You should have the doc
take a look at that.
I thought you were a doctor.
Animals and aliens only.
I'll put it on my to-do list.
Thank you.
Excuse me, staff sergeant. Did you
say that was an unmanned drone?
Correct.
They must have one hell of
a command-and-control system.
If NORTHCOM didn't agree with you,
I wouldn't be here.
Why?
with a strike package.
A strike package?
Yeah, coordinates for a missile strike
on a command-and-control centre.
But the asset fell off
the grid and we lost them.
All side streets are blocked.
Our only choice is to take the freeway.
All right. Well, it's your call.
Stavrou, get us on a freeway.
We don't wanna be in this area
when these bombs start to fall.
Try to miss at least
one of the cars, Stavrou.
Just keep driving.
Off ramp is one mile ahead.
Jesus.
Look out.
The ramp, it's gone, lieutenant.
All right, Robertson exit,
half a klick away.
Look out! Incoming, 12 o'clock!
- You okay?
- Harper!
It's a good time to move!
I'll suppress the fire,
you take the civilians!
Secure this exit, lmlay!
Lmlay, get me a defensive line
on that vehicle!
- Move, move, move!
- Let's go! Come on.
- Let's go!
- Come on, stay down, stay down!
Just keep everybody calm.
We'll be right back, all right?
All right. Safety first, buddy.
Martinez, if we get the civilians to that
helo, they take cover, rappel down.
I got a dozen up on the bridge.
They're moving down.
Lieutenant! Tank's out!
Nothing's stopping them now!
Staff sergeant, civilians won't make it
to that helo without cover fire.
Lockett, Kerns, on me, let's go!
Let's move, let's move, let's move!
Get the civilians down, all right?
Move!
Come on!
About a 30-foot drop. Let's go.
Get behind the bus!
Now, now, now! Get behind it!
Kids first! Around the body,
bring them down one at a time.
Roger that.
Imlay!
Get your team
up on that garbage truck!
Staff sergeant, cover us up front!
Stavs, you're with me! On me now!
We're gonna run behind that helicopter
and we're gonna rope down, all right?
The girls will be first.
I promise you nothing's
gonna happen. Okay? Stay down!
Lieutenant, dozen hostiles,
maybe more!
Four hundred metres
and closing fast!
Cover, cover!
What the hell are you doing?
You guys need another gun.
Three o'clock. Up on the bridge,
Santos. Up on the bridge.
Incoming!
Ten o'clock!
- Reloading!
- Aim for the leader!
Hell, you can take all the room
you want.
Mottola, move, move, move!
Yes, staff sergeant! Come on, let's go!
Let's go, go, go! Run now, run!
Keep running! Don't stop, run!
Run, run, run!
- Get in there!
- Cover me!
- I'm going for the.50 cal!
- Hurry up!
Get some, Lockett.
- Sh*t.
- What the hell is that thing?
I'm engaging!
You'll be okay, all right? It's okay.
Listen to me. You're going to be okay.
I got you. I will not let anything
happen to you, all right?
Sh*t!
Man down!
You're gonna be okay. Hold on,
hold on! Keep going. Hold on!
Keep looking up!
Oh, God!
I got you. It's okay. It's okay.
Get the ant that's controlling
that thing!
Lockett, get off your ass!
It's turning this way!
It's about to hit the fan, guys.
Get out now! Move!
Santos, come on!
- Come on!
- I'm stuck.
Go!
- What are you doing?
- Go!
Lmlay!
Where's Stavrou?
Mottorola! How many down?
Two down, staff sarge! One to go!
Look at me, look at me. Look, look.
Be good, okay?
- It's gonna be fine, okay? You ready?
- Lieutenant, C-4!
Let's blow this sucker to hell!
Let's do it.
Kerns!
Covering!
All right, dough is good to go!
- Go!
- Covering!
Damn it! We've lost the detonator.
- You all right?
- Yeah, got the wind knocked out of me.
- Mottorola!
- Dad!
You're okay, Hector! You're okay.
Hold on!
- I need bandages from the first aid kit.
- Sir! Sir!
It's okay!
Oh, my God!
All right.
We gotta get you to a medevac.
Doc!
Oh, sh*t, man!
- We need some cover!
- Damn it, I'm out!
- Got another mag, Lockett?
- They kicking our ass!
staff sergeant!
Marines, you're getting pinned down!
- We're not leaving you.
- Staff sergeant, get them out!
- Lieutenant, I am not leav...
- Get them out!
- No, I'm not leaving you!
- Get them out!
No! Not again!
I have a bag of C-4 on the bus.
Give this to my wife...
...and get them off
this goddamn freeway.
That's an order.
Yes, sir.
Right behind you.
Cover the lieutenant!
Hey, I'm out!
They're closing in!
Here we go.
This is Lieutenant William Martinez...
...Echo Company, 2nd Battalion,
5th Marines. Hoorah!
We're still half a klick
inside the bombing zone.
Move to live, Marines.
Did he just leave the lieutenant
back there to die?
Sure looked that way.
And this is the guy
in charge of us now?
Let's move.
Hey, those are our jets.
We're still in the fight.
All right, we're clear of the bomb zone.
Let's tighten this place down.
Bombs drop in six minutes.
Santos, Kerns, on me.
Let's see if there are any comms.
All right? Hardwire only.
- Corporal Harris, we clear?
- We're clear!
- Do you have a hard line in here?
- Over there.
Now, my son's an optimist.
When this first happened, he said,
"Why don't we go try to talk to them?
Maybe they wanna be friends."
Hector? Hey.
We're gonna go get some food
and water for your dad, okay?
It's okay.
And what'd you tell him?
I said:
"You know, if they're chasing
and shooting us...
...they're probably not good friends."
I should've followed directions
and gone to the F.O.B.
I should've never stayed at the police
station, but I was scared, man.
I made all the wrong decisions.
You trusted your gut, Mr. Rincon.
You made a call.
I'd do the same thing
to protect my Marines.
- I had a situation my last tour.
- Yeah?
There was no right call. You went left
or you go right, it didn't matter.
But you're alive.
Yeah, I survived.
But I wasn't supposed to.
Staff Sergeant Nantz...
You promise to save my son?
Staff sergeant, we have
a hardwired connection!
Doc, keep him warm.
Sun is going down.
This will keep you warm.
We're estimating that 20 cities in 17
countries are now under full attack.
It's obvious the enemy is attempting
to cut us off from one another.
Is there any more information
at this time, Professor Stavert?
New data shows that they're using
...and our ocean levels
are already decreasing.
They are using it to power their ships,
their machinery...
...possibly their own bodies. It's the
