Behind Enemy Lines: Axis of Evil Page #6

---

- Are you Robert James?

- Yes.

This is Captain Chung Won Joon

of the South Korean Task Force 121...

Bobby!

Our government has sent us

to help you.

Would you like to come

with us, sir?

That'd be real good.

Hey. See if you can

get this thing goin'.

It's not happening.

No fuel.

Captain. I need that jeep.

My men.

Sh*t!

- I'm gonna go for the jeep.

- That's a bad idea, Bobby.

What are we gonna do?

We can't just stick here.

Bobby! The wall!

- Bobby, it's a dead end. Back up! Back up!

- I can see that, Neil!

Chingu.

Chingu.

- Echo 7?

- Yes, sir!

Sir, I have two K.I.A.

And Callaghan...

Well, sir, he's hurt pretty bad.

But, sir, there's something

you need to pass on right away.

Mr. President.

I've got Commander Mackey

on the line.

Lieutenant Bobby James

is freed in North Korea...

and safe with South Korean Special forces.

Additionally, sir,

Lieutenant James is reporting...

that at least some of his captors

were Chieu Hoi.

- That's, um...

- Vietnamese for "defectors."

- I know what it means, Admiral. I was there.

- Beg your pardon, sir.

Ellie, I want you

to hear this.

- Go ahead, Commander.

- Sir.

Lieutenant James is asking permission

to cross deck.

Uh, I was Army Ranger,

not a sailor.

"Cross deck," sir, means to cross over and join

the troops that have come to replace you.

Sir, he's asking to remount

Operation Silent Night...

with the help of

the South Korean Special Ops.

They think they can

sabotage the missile site?

- That's absurd.

- Vance.

- Admiral?

- That is what he's saying, sir.

Okay, we need to get

Ambassador Li in here.

Commander Mackey,

how many men are there?

Six, including Lieutenant James.

I don't see a downside.

Excuse me.

Detection, loss of the initiative,

element of surprise.

If the D.P.R.K. Central command

doesn't know about the SEALs...

there's a chance they don't know

we're coming for their missile.

Mr. President, we've been down

this road, sir. We can...

I'm done talkin' about this.

Commander Mackey,

permission granted.

And tell your man that,

should he succeed...

he'll have the thanks

of more than one grateful nation.

Yes, sir. We'll give it

everything we've got.

Echo 7 Yankee.

- Mission status: Hilary.

- Roger. Hilary.

- Report at 0400 prior to your assault.

- Yes, sir.

Captain Chung,

I am Ambassador Li Sung Park.

I am calling from the office

of the president of the United States.

I have just received order

to assist you in any way possible.

I guess we are...

how do you say... in business.

- In business.

- Yes!

We gotta get rid

of this taxi.

I must speak

to my president now.

I wish our soldiers success,

Mr. President.

I fear their actions

will determine war or peace.

Mr. Ambassador, our nation thanks you

for your actions here today.

I don't care what the president

of South Korea's willing to do.

I'm not gonna authorize a preemptive

full-scale assault on North Korea.

We'll give the SEALs 24 hours.

If they fail, we'll proceed

with a surgical strike on the missile site.

I'm done talkin' about this.

If we go that way, who's gonna tell Koreans?

- They'll see it on CNN.

If the South Koreans are right, our strike

could provoke a lethal counterattack.

If they come at us with everything,

including W.M.D.'s...

we're talking 700,000 to a million

South Koreans dead.

They won't do that.

They know we need

to take this site out.

Unless they want us to attack...

so they can say

we started this war.

- Now we go to missile?

- I need you to get me to the hills.

A few toys for our trip.

Let's move out.

I got satellite photos

of the missile site.

Oh. Look.

These are fan-f***in'-tastic.

Fan-f***ing-tastic?

I like this saying.

These workers...

Why are they wearing these uniforms?

Oh. Prisoners.

They are all political prisoners.

They work there

until they die.

That way, no risk

of D.P.R.K. Secrets ever leaving.

- What about the ones that don't die?

- Eventually they all die.

Fortunately for Kim Jong II...

there is no shortage

of new political prisoners in North Korea.

All along the perimeter,

there's double bands of razor wire...

plus guards every 50 meters.

Except here.

No fences at the mouth of valley...

because of these cliffs.

- Okay. Well, can the truck take us there?

- No.

- Looks like we're gonna have to climb then.

- Mm...hmm.

Chung, I gotta radio in brevity code

so they don't assume we've been compromised.

Sure.

Want to try this?

Come on. Let's go.

- There's no way that I'm lettin' you...

- You're not comin' with me, Neil.

Sorry.

Echo 7 Yankee, do you copy?

Echo 7 Yankee, come in.

All right. They're still

fueling the missile. That's good.

There's light guard

on the bunker.

Soldiers must still

be in their barracks.

Jinhae, this is Kunsan 230.

Your signal is strong.

Good check.

Continue beacon at constant interval.

Roger, Kunsan.

Maintaining current signal strength.

Jinhae, this is the USS Ronald Reagan.

Continuing signal sweep.

No signals reported. Over.

Ronald Reagan, Jinhae.

Appreciate the help, sir.

Henry, this plan of yours

is gonna get people hurt.

What's your status?

We're waiting for contact

from Lieutenant James.

He's overdue.

I'm shuttin' you down, bud.

Norman, for God's sake,

give it a chance.

Just give it 10 more minutes.

You guys ready?

Echo 7 Yankee, come in.

- Echo 7 Yankee, do you copy?

- Come on. Come on.

Okay.

Prisoners.

Tell 'em they're free to go.

They got to get outta here now.

Admiral, General Vance tells me we may

have lost track of Operation Silent Night.

- That's correct, sir.

- What does that mean?

I'm afraid we...

We have to assume

that they have been compromised.

He say,

"Thank you for my freedom."

Fight?

You want to fight alongside us?

Okay.

American Navy SEAL!

No!

Let's get the hell outta here now.

Come on. Let's get outta here.

American Navy SEAL.

You come.

American Navy SEAL.

You come.

You come!

I know, if you do not

succeed here...

things will only get

worse for my country.

Tell your president that we are not all

ignorant peasants here in Korea.

All right, let's get the hell outta here.

Now. Come on.

Come on.

They're on their own.

We can't do any more for them.

Mr. President, if we're gonna

make our window, we have to put...

the B-2s at Okinawa and the 117s

at Jinhae in the air right now.

Very well.

Okinawa and Jinhae are "go."

Jinhae, Okinawa, you are "go."

Eighteenth Bomber Wing,

you are "go."

...cleared for takeoff.

- Requesting priority clearance Runway 275.

- Go, Okinawa. Go.

Tucson, Eighth Fighter Wing

is a "go."

- Jinhae launching and away.

- Roger, Okinawa. Launching and away.

Move!

Roger, Okinawa.

On course. Proceeding north 270.

Initializing target-acquisition software.

Jinhae 17 moving into attack formation.

Chung!

Okay!

There are too many of them

at the bunker.

- No matter what, hold them here.

- Right!

Sir, the first wave breaks

North Korean airspace in nine minutes.
