Live Free or Die Hard Page #3
It is a three step systematic attack
on the entire national infrastructure.
ok Step 1 :
Take out allthe transportation
Step 2 :
The financial base and telecomsStep 3 :
Get rid of all the utilities.Gas, Water, Electricity, Nuclear....
Basically everything that is
controlled by a computer.
Which nowadays is almost everything.
So that's why they call it a Fire Sale
because everything must go.
Hey, listen,
what's your name?
Farrell?
Keep your voice down OK?
Nobody here is talking about a Fire Sale.
you helped plan one.
No man, I'm just saying...
We appreciate the concern, we
know what we are doing, thank you.
What?
- What?
- Nothing, I said I understand.
Hey, they didn't send the
girl scouts to get this kid.
They sent professional guys,
full tactical gear,
Now look, I don't know this kid...
and, frankly, I don't give a sh*t.
No offence.
But somebody wants this kid dead.
And obviously, it's got something
to do with what's going on here.
Humler is taking over
the interrogations,
of the hackers that we are bringing in.
I will get you an escort over there.
Right? Molina, get this kid
to the front of the line.
- I want to know what he knows.
- Right.
If he knew about half of what I know,
his fuzzy little head would explode.
Special agent Johnson.
I will take you there.
- Agent Johnson?
- That's right.
Right this way.
- So is any of what you were saying possible?
- Possible?
OK look, I will tell you again.
If you take away any one thing, no problem,
but if you take it down all at once,
the system crashes, and...
look around, man!
Come on, the government has got to have
dozens of departments dedicated to that sh*t.
It took FEMA 5 days to get
water to the superdome.
How long until we get to
the Dept. of Homeland Security?
Lauflin, get on the police band and get
them to clear a route to the D.H.S.
DC Metro, this is the
F.B.I., requesting you to...
Farrell just resurfaced on the grid.
The feds are taking him to Homeland.
Good, close that loop now.
Isolate the frequency.
Locate the vehicles and get
me John McClane's file.
i Brad, we just found Farrell.
Stand by for location.
I don't mean to harp guys but
but have just passed another
snack bar and I am starving.
- Shut up.
- I need to eat.
- Shut up.
Shut up. You have 14 minutes
to tell me why you lied to me back there.
Did I lie to you?
What are you talking about?
The pictures on the wall.
You knew those guys, right?
- I, wha..., I ...
- Kid, don't lie to me.
I am a cop, I can tell you are
lying. Who are they?
OK, OK OK...
They were my competition.
Make the next right onto Concord.
They said they were a software firm
that had developed some kind of
a new algorithm
and they just wanted to see
if it could be cracked.
That's what I do,
I do math based security.
Here's the thing,
the thing that I've been thinking is
that if you can do something this massive
you need tons of start-up guys
to write the software
but only a few black hats
to actually implement that stuff
so then the start-up guys
who haven't really done anything
like me...
-End up as pictures on a wall
I swear to God McClane
I had no idea I was gonna be
an accessory to Armageddon
i Take the next left at Lexington.
and that's a sexy voice.
What is she taking us this way for?
- Oh, my God!
i Unit this is dispatch
i clear a route for two F.B.I. vehicles...
i F.B.I. we have cleared a path.
- That's her!
- Her who?
What are you talking about?
It is them.
- Are you saying it's "them" them?
- I swear to you, I know her.
I would know her voice anywhere.
- Don't say anything.
- Keep you mouth shut for a second.
Hey Metro,
how's your day going over there?
Gotta be crazy over there
with all these 5-87s, huh?
Yes, Sir, we had to
dispatch all units.
Yeah you had to dispatch all units,
for all the naked people walking around?
Cut the bullshit honey
and just put your boss on.
i Lauflin, we are getting off this route
make a left here on 14th street..
- Officer McClane.
- That is Detective McClane, a**hole.
Don't worry though, we will have
plenty of time to get to know each other...
when I come visit you in prison.
But, John, I already know
so much about you.
Your address in Brooklyn...
the payments on your mortgage,
how long you have been in the NYPD
and how is Holly?
That's sad, you are divorced.
Was that tough on little
Jack and Lucy?
After thirty years, I would have thought
you had a better pension plan.
Oh and it gets worse...
Your 401k no longer exists
Tell you what, let me
make it up to you.
-Box them in at that intersection.
Shoot Mr Farrell in the head,
and drive away
by the time you get to the end
of the next block,
all your debts will
be wiped clean...
and your children
will be set for life.
That really is tempting,
especially that last part.
But I think I'll pass, Jerk off.
John, you are a Timex
watch in a digital age.
You are gonna lose.
Yes, well the other thing that can
happen, it is that I can come and find you...
kick your ass and throw you
out of your own party.
- What do you think about that d*ckhead?
- Hold your position.
He is not responding.
Down, get down!
Officers down at the corner
of Main with Constitution.
I repeat, officers down.
Come on, come on,
get out let's go!
God Damn It!
Stay down!
Get down, just hold on!
We have a squad car under fire
we need backup.
i I Repeat, we need backup!
This is base, we are
sending backup.
Hang on, hang on.
Hang on.
Hold on.
- We lost ....
- Stay with them.
OK take the tunnel, left left left!
Give me the schematics
of that tunnel.
The tunnel!
Open the gates on the North side entrance.
Redirect traffic,
occupy all lanes.
- Open the other side.
- What?
Move!
Hang on to something!
Hey, don't get out of the car!
Hey!
Stop!
Run!
Oh God!
Don't ever hesitate
like that again.
Are you alright?
- Stay here, don't move.
- What?
You've been here before John.
Get over to the wall, Sir.
The feds called in a favour.
All you gotta do is pick
up a kid in Jersey...
drive him down to DC.
How hard can that be, huh?
It can't be that hard can it?
No, gotta be a senior detective
think that a traffic jam
or throwing a car at me
Will stop me, huh?
- Red, get in there and get it done.
- It won't be necessary, he is leaving.
This is not a good idea!
- Don't touch me!
- OK OK alright...
Are you OK? Oh my God!
- Pretty lucky shot, huh?
- Oh yeah lucky!
Jesus, you just killed a
helicopter with a car.
I was out of bullets.
How you doin'?
I skinned my knee and my
asthma is acting up....
Whatever, yeah I'm fine.
i Red, check in.
i The helicopter is destroyed.
What about Farrell and McClane?
- They are both dead.
- Come back in.
OK we are moving on,
begin Stage 3.
I have just spoken to Emmerson.
The teams are arriving
at Woodlawn now.
