Chain of Command Page #4

Put 'em down.

- Put the guns down on the oor...

- Easy.

Or the lieutenant

gets one in the head.

Now you stay

right the f*** there...

Or everybody gets a bullet.

Sh*t, Sam, where are you?

What are you doing here?

You f***ed up again.

We got O'Brien at least.

"Got O'Brien at least"!

What a consolation.

Sh*t, our main covert

got away again?

Is the motherf***er

that elusive?

What can I say?

He's no slouch.

We trained him well.

I don't think I need

to tell you the ramifications

for this type of f***-up.

I don't need you

to tell me either.

I already know.

But I know what I've got to do

to fix it.

Well, I'm glad

to hear you say that,

Because I was beginning to think I was

standing here talking to

a dead motherf***er.

Is that the case now?

You're damn right.

Go on, put one the f*** in.

When the time comes,

you won't see it coming.

I'm looking forwards to it.

I got a family in the house.

I had a family, too.

That was taken away from me.

Now unless I get some answers,

I'm gonna bring your family into it.

Now do you want that?

Who was the trigger man?

I ain't tellin' you nothing.

Okay, let's meet the family.

Okay, it was Hammond!

He killed your brother.

Look, I told you

what you needed to know.

Thank you.

Still doesn't save you.

Jimmy...

You really look exhausted.

I think I found the guys

that killed my brother.

No way.

Walt and Cliff got mixed up

in some major drug-smuggling operation

with lieutenant Ross.

He'd been smuggling

large amounts of opium

into the country

using dead soldiers' bodies

and coffins as a shield.

Nobody's checking.

The dope hits the warehouse

and Ross distributes it

all over the world.

Apparently, some of the dope money

wound up missing,

and Ross thinks

Walt and Cliff took it.

Do you have any proof?

I'm getting there.

Hey, listen,

if something should happen to me,

I'm gonna need you

to take this to your superiors

and break the story.

Yeah, of course.

Where can I find your pal?

And don't lie to me.

What happened to you, man?

I mean, you were the one

who preached loyalty.

The cost of doing business.

Cost of doing business?

You were one of us.

Get over it.

You're the only one

that Jimmy cares about right now.

He is going to fight you

to the bitter end.

Listen to me,

you one-eyed piece of sh*t.

You're the bait

that's going to get my money back.

Sam, where the hell are you?

Sam's preoccupied right now.

Ross?

Where's my f***in' money?

Where's Sam?

- If you hurt him, I'm just gonna...

- Too late for that.

The only question

is whether he's going to walk

or be carried away in a box.

I want my money.

This'll all be over soon.

You're going to get me

my f***in' money

or your friend's going

to pay the ultimate price.

Put him on the line.

I need to know

if he's still alive.

- Talk.

- Jimmy.

Hey. Hey, Sam,

hang in there, man.

Jimmy, listen.

These guys... they're not...

You've got two hours.

Ross, leave him out of it.

This is between me and you, okay?

This isn't a negotiation.

You either comply

or he's f***in' dead.

Now here's what

you're going to do.

Webster's approaching.

Hands where I can see 'em.

What are you gonna do?

Shoot me?

Where's the money?

It's in a safe place.

Where's Sam?

Bring him out.

Hey, hey, go easy.

I said go easy.

F*** "easy," a**hole.

Sam, you okay?

All right, buddy.

Here's how this

is going to work.

You tell us where the money is,

Then we release your pal.

Simple exchange.

No. You're going

to let him go first,

he's going to drive away

in my car,

then I tell you

where the money is.

I laid out your options.

If I go with your options,

there's a likelihood

that me and Sam are dead.

That's the chance

you're going to have to take.

Couldn't save your brother,

but you can save him.

Look, you let him go,

we all walk away,

nobody gets hurt. That's the deal.

Ice him.

Come on, no.

- Do it.

- What...

I'm gonna kill you today, Hammond.

Ah!

Copy that, we're on our way.

They got him.

Welcome to hell.

Yours or mine?

All about how you look at it.

I'm looking at three dead men.

Ha. Funny.

But what's coming

is far worse and painful.

I can deal with pain.

How about you?

I'm a glutton for it.

Good.

Now where's the money?

You looked up your ass?

Wow.

You hit like a b*tch.

You know,

Icing your brother was cake.

He never saw it coming.

But you have been

a real pain in my ass.

Just won't die, will you?

Then again, we wouldn't be here

sharing this quality time

together, now would we?

Untie me just for a second.

Man, come on.

Let's make it fair.

Fair? That's where pigs get ribbons.

It doesn't work that way.

But I'll do something for you.

Let's switch tactics.

Ray peters.

Isn't this a little

below your pay grade?

Don't get me started

about pay grade.

Why you slummin'

with these clowns?

You talk a lot of sh*t,

bein' in a bad position.

Hammond? Get me a knife.

James, I'm tired

of f***in' with you.

And I'm gonna ask you one time

where that money is,

and you gonna

give me the answer.

Now where's the f***in' money?

Get the b*tch.

Well, well,

look who decided

to join the party.

Be a shame

if the only family you had left

got harmed in a horrible way.

Look, let her...

let her go, man.

Let her go,

you hear me? Let her go.

You just killed

that woman, James.

Cut her up.

You know what I'd find

really entertaining?

Watching you as I bleed her...

No, hey, hey, hey! Hey, no.

No, look, just don't do that.

Then tell me where

the f***in' money is!

I don't know. I don't know.

I... listen! I do not know.

My brother was killed

before I could find out.

That's the truth.

I'm not buying it, Webster.

You said you had it!

Now where the f*** is it?

I only said I had it

to keep Sam alive,

as a bargaining chip.

I don't know.

Look, I'd tell you.

Look, just take me, leave her.

Lieutenant Ross

is about to arrive.

All right.

All right.

I'll give you one last chance

to think it over.

But if I don't get what I want,

Her pretty little head

comes the f*** off!

You two sit tight.

Sally, I am so sorry.

They shouldn't

have brought you into this.

You have nothing...

Look, all they want...

Sally, look at me.

All they want is me.

I'm going to get you out of this, okay?

Trust me. Trust me.

I'll get us out of this.

He's one stubborn f***.

Don't worry about it.

We'll break him.

Yeah, all right.

I'm gonna check on him.

What the...

Ah!

You stay right here.

I'll be back for you.

Happy to see me, Ross?

You were the best soldier

in our squadron.

I learned a lot from you.

You both disgraced

your country.

Hell, for years,

I fought with pride

for this goddamn country.

We all did.

Yeah, we all did.

And as soon

as you return from combat,

You quickly realize

there's no appreciation for vets.

No work, no housin'... sh*t.

Cuttin' back

on our health and pensions.

They treat prisoners

better than they treat us.

Is that what you tell yourself?
