Oh, God, I don't--

I overheard Cross and Manning

on the radio, a security thing.

Because of the garbage truck,

they must have moved them.

Where? Where?

There's only one other

open block.

G block, go.

(metal groaning)

Terrence, are you still there?

Terrence:
Yes, sir.

Do you want me to meet you?

No, sit tight and keep your head down

or it will probably get blown off.

Copy that.

- Esmeralda, come on.

- What's going on?

- We have to hide, come on.

- No. No.

We have to stay low.

You have to stay quiet.

- Okay, this way, then. This way.

- No, no, this way, come on.

- Let go of me.

- Esmeralda, look,

I will keep you safe.

I promise.

- Okay?

' Okay

Come on.

There you go. Shh.

(distant gunshot)

(distant rapid gunfire)

( men shouting )

Man:
Where are you going?

What's going on?

Man:
Where are you going?

What's going on?

Sorry.

I just didn't want

any friendly accidents.

Cross, it's me.

What's going on?

It's a targeted extraction.

They're killing

anybody they see,

so we want to kill them

first, you hear?

- So we should get the hell out of here.

- Negative.

If somebody comes,

I'll lay down cover fire

- and buy you time.

- Do it.

All right, watch your

partners' backs.

They're gonna try to track me

on security cams,

so if you can pin them down,

buy me some time.

Man:
Hey, what's going on

out there?

( Pounding )

F***, what's going on?

Man:
What the hell?

( Men continue shouting )

Jesus, finally.

You took long enough.

I went over your file.

I've been in this game long enough

to know that someone

has phonied it up.

You still think I'm crazy?

Which means probably

someone wants you dead.

If you listen to me,

do what I say,

I'll kill them

before they kill you, you hear?

Now, I don't know exactly

how you fit in this picture.

I'm assuming either you're

with them or you're with me.

The long and the short is,

do what I say,

be smart-- you'll do well.

If you don't listen to me

and I find for one reason

or another you're with them

or you make a false move,

I'll kill you

just like I kill them.

We cool?

All right, come on over

to my left.

You stay on my right,

stay a little bit behind me,

and let's go.

(rapid gunfire)

You three, with me.

You two, take out the MP

and sweep the block

for the target. Go.

Man:
Section G clear.

Open all the doors in G block.

Lock everything else down.

I want my men to have

a clear run in there.

Warden:
You can't do that.

That sector houses high-risk detainees.

You can't let those animals out.

- Blake:
Do it.

- You got it.

( Buzzes )

( laughs)

So what's your story?

I'm a courier for

a non-US intelligence agency.

Sometimes I work with friendlies

and sometimes enemies,

but all of it

off the official radar.

My contact on my last drop

was a CIA op.

So how did you get here?

Well, my contact

was assassinated

and then all channels

went dark.

I got away

and then I got picked up.

And then I ended up here.

Now I got one message

from my handlers-

to sit tight because there was

some kind of internal problem--

and then nothing.

We'll talk about that.

Let's keep moving.

Cross:
Hold up.

Don't move. Don't breathe.

(device squealing )

What's up?

Mines. Cut one of the beams,

they go off.

We can't go that way.

Follow me.

Man:
Corridor six clear.

Heading to the rendezvous point.

(rhythmic banging)

So do you know

who killed your contact?

It felt like a CIA kill squad.

I've seen them do the thing

a dozen times. It was classic.

So they were trying to isolate you

and retrieve information.

What are you carrying?

You tell me.

You know the drill.

They don't tell me anything.

They upload the information

onto an implant.

It's usually

military intelligence.

Where's the implant?

It's right there.

Yeah, I've seen those before.

You can upload and download data

via a short-range transmission,

but the chip also monitors

the electrical impulses of your heart.

The problem is

if you get killed,

it wipes the intel.

Are the police at least

gonna come and help us?

Sweetheart, this is a top secret

military dark facility.

The police do not know

about this place,

never could, never will.

But you don't have to worry, 'cause

if somebody tries to come and kill you,

they gotta come through me

and my friends.

What's that noise?

Pipes, man. They run

all the way through the prison.

The inmates use them

to communicate.

I have an MP held up

in the kitchen.

He's trying to let us know

he's all right.

Man:
Hey, boss man.

Charlotte, get over here.

Now get down.

Hey, boss man.

We know you got some women back there.

Just give us one.

We'll take our frustrations

out on her.

Or you could f*** her yourself

and just give us your keys.

Cross:
I got a better idea.

Why don't you f*** your mama

and one of your pet poodles?

(gunfire)

They found the weapons.

- Does that hurt?

- Yeah.

You f***ing p*ssy.

I have the asset and confirmation

of the chip implant and location.

Cross is

right behind me.

Get to the extraction point.

How do you want me

to do that? I'm lost.

You see where she is? What's

the quickest way to the garbage room?

It's hard to say.

If you want to keep on breathing,

you'd better figure it out.

From where she is,

she'd have to go

through the kitchen

and then skirt B and C blocks.

Collins, we have the asset.

She's being pursued by Cross

towards the kitchen in your sector.

Take out Cross,

rendezvous with Charlotte,

and get her

to the extraction point.

Rendezvous with Collins in the kitchen.

We'll open the doors.

Head to the kitchen.

Happy to see a familiar face?

Manning, contact, 12.

Pull back.

Pull back.

Hold your fire.

Having fun yet?

F***, I'm having a blast.

We've been clearing these

motherfuckers as we find them.

They're heading for the kitchen.

You want to hit that b*tch together?

I'd love to, but unfortunately

they're too mobile.

She'll be gone

before we get there.

I need to hit

the control room.

Now I can track her

from there.

We've got time,

'cause they can't kill her yet.

Clear.

Another little problem-

we have one of the MP-s

held up in the kitchen

and the bad guys

are headed that way.

Sh*t. Poor motherf***er

ain't got a chance.

- Let me see what I can do.

- Yes, sir.

You guys, I want you

to sweep up the rear,

make sure Manning's six is clear.

I'll radio when I hit the target.

All right, let's do it.

Do you think anyone heard

your signals?

- ( Whispers )

- No, wait.

Blake:
Kitchen, I have movement

by cold storage.

( Rustling )

-( Esmeralda screams)

- Shut up. Bring them over here now.

It's Terrence-- an MP.

Tell Cross and Manning

everything is clear down here.

Tell them you have the girl.

This is Terrence.

We are in the kitchen.

Terrence:
It's a trap.

Mayday, Mayday!

- No!

- ( two gunshots)

Collins:

We have the asset.

Blake:
Get her out of the kitchens.

Send her to the extraction point.

Collins:
Copy that.

Blake:
Contact,
