Declassified: The Making of 'The Marine'

---

[ Man On Radio ] Ghost Two,

this is Echo One. Ghost Two, this is Echo One.

E. T.A. :
: Four minutes.

Repeat:
: Four minutes.

- [ Both Grunting ]

- [ Man Shouting In Foreign Language ]

[ Continues In Foreign Language ]

Intel confirmed.

Nine hostiles, three marines.

[ Man On Radio ] Ghost Two, you are not

to engage. Alpha Team is on its way.

No time.

[ Shouting In Foreign Language ]

[ Yelling ]

- You guys ready to go home?

- Yeah.

- How do we get around 'em?

- We don't.

We go through 'em.

[ Soldiers Shouting In Distance ]

[ Man ]

Atten-hut.! Look sharp, marine.

As you were, gentlemen.

- Triton.

- Sir?

Outside. Ten minutes.

Yes, sir.

[ Man ] We've approached

this thing from every angle.

The judge advocate's done

hearing your case.

- What about an appeal?

- They're not accepting more appeals.

Bottom line is, you disobeyed a direct order.

You're being discharged.

You served your unit, your corps

and your country with honor, son.

Walk away with dignity.

Colonel...

I'm a marine.

One of the best. Remember that.

On behalf of a grateful nation

and the United States Marine Corps...

I thank you for your loyal service.

- Thank you.

- Oh!

You're home.

- You all right?

- Yeah.

Yeah, I just- I can't believe you're here.

You know, the hardest thing...

about you leaving was not knowing.

You know, not knowing

where you were...

not knowing if you're coming home...

not knowing if I'm gonna get

that phone call saying that you wouldn't be.

You married a marine, Kate.

I know it's not gonna be

easy for you, John.

We'll figure it out together.

I'm home now, and I'm not goin' anywhere.

Good. And speaking of that...

are you sure about

starting this job tomorrow?

- Oh!

- I just think there's so many

other things you could be doing.

If I sat around here all day, I'd go insane.

I just want you to be happy, John.

I am happy. Come on.

- Oh! Geez. Where are we going?

- To make me happy.

- I'll be right back.

- [ Cuban Accent ] You got it, man.

What?

You got it, man.

You know, Scarface. Come on.

Do it again.

Okay. You got it, man.

Wow. That's horrible.

[ No Audible Dialogue ]

- How you doing?

- Fine, sir.

Excuse me.

[ Customers Screaming, Gasping ]

Everybody down.

Everybody on the ground, now!

Ladies and gentlemen,

keep your heads down and your mouths shut.

I don't wanna see any eye contact.

I have severe intimacy issues and a gun...

so do yourselves a favor

and don't look up.

What I want is on

the other side of this door...

but that's gonna be a little tricky

because... it's bulletproof.

So here's how we're gonna do it.

Hi, honey. Can I borrow you for a second?

[ Screaming ]

- How you doin' in there, sport?

- [ Woman ] Oh, God.! Please.!

Oh, don't look at him.

He can't help you.

Please! I have children!

I don't think he cares.

Please!

[ Screams ]

[ Beeping ]

Fill it.

Get down!

Thank you.

Rome.

You gotta hit me.

It's gotta look real-

For the cops.

That's real.

Well, the cops are comin'.

I'd love to stay and chat,

but, uh, I can't.

I apologize for that little

outburst of anger I showed earlier.

That's really more for dramatic purposes

than anything else.

I hope that what I've done here today

doesn't force you to have...

a negative opinion of me or how you think

I feel about the great state of South Carolina.

'Cause I love it here. I do.

I love the people.

Enjoy the rest of your day.

[ Sirens Wailing In Distance ]

What? Too much?

[ Tires Screeching ]

Ooh!

Okay.

We know how they got in here.

Once they're in, they don't bother

with any small stuff.

They just go right for the vault

with 12 million in diamonds in it.

The same diamonds

that were delivered just 24 hours ago.

What are the odds of that?

And how did our guys know...

that they were gonna get

so lucky today?

We could ask our friend

on the floor over there.

I'll bet he knows.

[ Chattering ]

I don't care.

No, do you understand

what I'm saying? Oh, really?

See if you can understand this.

[ Chuckling ]

Is this what you do all day?

Hmm? I had a Game Boy...

but they took it.

Come on, man. This is a great job.

Good benefits. Great money.

A couple two, three years,

they move you to management.

How long you been working here?

Nine years.

How come you're not in management?

[ Phone Ringing ]

Security.

We'll be right there.

Psycho ex-boyfriend on 12.

Rick, have you lost your mind?

This is my job.

Oh, really? It doesn't

look like a whorehouse.

Where's all the other whores?

Where's your pimp?

You were with him. That's the reason you

didn't answer your cell phone all weekend.!

Sir, could you please come with us?

Don't mess with me, pork chop.

- "Pork chop"?

- You're causing a scene.

You think this is a scene? Wait till I tell

Daddy about the little whore he raised!

- Sir, I'm just gonna have to ask you-

- Ask me to what?

- Take a seat, flattop. I'll get to you in a second.

- Oh, really?

Get your hands off me!

Why are you so angry?

[ Cell Phone Ringing ]

You got the Drake.

Dude, let me call you back later.

Because I am trapped in an elevator...

- with a couple of jackasses, that's why!

- [ Elevator Bell Dings ]

We kindly ask you

to leave the premises, sir.

Thanks.

Seriously, just spit-balling here.

Tell me if I'm close.

Right out of high school,

straight into the military?

Realized you'd never be

all you thought you could be...

and that's how you ended up

as a rent-a-cop.

Tell me I'm wrong.

Whoa! Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Hey, wait a minute. Wait a minute.

- The genie tried to hit me!

- I know. I saw that,

and he shouldn't have done that.

You shouldn't have done that.

But he missed, and you're fine.

We deal with people like this every day,

and in order to avoid an incident...

sometimes you just

gotta let things go.

Yeah? Well, you better

tell your boyfriend to back off.

Unfortunately for the genie,

this is not one of those times.

Oh!

[ Gasping ]

It's on now. See, you really messed up.

Somewhere, somehow,

somebody just got all this on video.

By the time you go to sleep tonight,

I'm gonna own this building.

And tomorrow...

don't be late.

'Cause when you clock in, you're fired!

Johnny.

[ Clears Throat ]

A toast.

To your first and last day on the job.

[ Chuckles ]

Yeah.

- About that-

- Dude, I told you, don't worry about it.

It's not the first time

I've been suspended.

That's not it. Um-

You'll find another job.

You got all that training.

Training.

Covert reconnaissance.

Close-quarter hand-to-hand combat.

Demolition.

Not a high call in the workplace

for skills like that, Joe.

Okay, but you're a smart guy.

You can do whatever you want.

You don't get it. It's not-

It's not about work.

It's not about a job.

Being a marine meant everything to me.

Now I go and get fired

from some bullshit security job.

Sorry.

I don't know what to do.

Look.

I'm not gonna try and pretend

I know what you're going through...

'cause I don't.
