Mine Page #3

Would you mind

going over there to get that radio?

Right there,

in the bag.

Would you get it for me, please?

Please, get me to the radio.

It's right there.

At least look where I'm pointing.

Get on the radio!

The radio!

No, wait!

Wait...

Wait, no...

I was not scolding.

Just I am trying to

get the radio...

Your Highness...

This secret message

is your amulet. It will...

be able to protect you from evil forces,

my knight...

Don't worry, ok?

I know you have to leave...

so, go...

defeat your demons as a

knight in shining armor.

without blemish and without fear.

I'm sure it's going to go well...

I know.

But don't take too long.

Win this war and come back to me,

Otherwise...

I'll have to find another guy...

A Delta Force type...

or maybe a Ranger.

I love you,

You're a lucky man!

Here we go again.

Look, man...

I'm not in the mood

for your bullshit...

I didn't sleep so well last night.

What's your name?

Mike.

"Mike" in your language and

"Man who can't take the next step" in mine!

Mike is Michael.

But what would a Berber know.

Mike and Michael.

You called me "Berber"...

but you know what a Berber is?

I know.

He's a guy who won't

get the radio even if you ask him.

I bet that your daughter brought me the

water bottle yesterday without telling you.

In my language...

Berber means free man.

Why aren't you a free man?

Ok. Ok.

You stepped on a mine...

in the end...

but you're a very lucky man.

You step on a mine and it doesn't explode.

You spend the night in the desert and

the animals leave you alone.

You're a very lucky man, Mike and Michael!

Good.

Thank you.

Now can we...

Mike and Michael...

Why did you step on the mine?

i didn't know there was a mine...

when I stepped.

I don't know where the mines are,

like you do!

You're wrong, Mike and Michael.

We don't know where the mines are.

I saw you walk around,

going all zig-zag.

You know the paths.

I don't know where the mines are.

If I walk straight into a minefield...

sooner or later,

I'll step on a mine, for sure.

I figured out what your problem is...

you're scared.

Come on, really?

Don't tell me.

No, you don't understand.

No matter where you are now,

it only matters where you want to go.

I just want to go to my house...

to my family.

I only follow my destiny.

It seems that my destiny is still here.

I made my last misstep.

Every day you step

may be your last step.

So what's the difference today?

The difference is that today...

I know that,

even if I was a lucky man...

I have only a 7%

chance of not dying.

7%

Good.

So, it was all incredibly

philosophical and everything...

but could you please...

bring me...

my radio?

Thank you.

Ready? No, I'm busy!

Why did you step on the mine?

Because we were marching

toward the village.

Why get to the village?

Because we were lost in the desert.

Why in the desert?

Because that was our mission.

Why mission?

Because we're at war.

And why are you at war?

You want to kill the enemy?

No.

I am a soldier.

And why are you a soldier?

Because...

I had no reasons to stay.

I had no more.

Why "no more"?

You still want the radio?

Become a free man!

You must go on.

The wrong path can take you home too.

I won't ever give up.

Stay alive, man!

It'll be fine

It'll all be fine.

Shut up.

You're the one whose gone,

Shut up.

What else could I do?

Where were you when she was sick?

Please, do me a favor

and leave me alone.

Now what do you want?

You disappeared to...

who knows where, all these years...

and now you come back

and you want to talk?

Ok.

Let's talk.

We're here...

it's a perfect opportunity.

What's up, huh?

Don't you dare mention it!

Don't you dare even say his name!

Who got to you, man?

Tommy?

You're a real disaster.

Let's roll, soldier.

We have to go home.

Or do you think Jenny

will be waiting forever?

Do not worry, my friend.

Not going anywhere.

It's useless.

The train is coming.

We'll call them

when we get the signal.

So you don't need to keep calling them.

You'll just kill the batteries.

Right?

Right.

Come on, Mike.

Stop it, please.

It's just your imagination.

It's impossible that your phone rings

here, in the middle of the desert.

Look.

Dad

This can't happen...

and you know it, right?

You don't know sh*t, Tom!

You know what? It's true.

You never had the balls to tell me

anything about what's eating you.

I'm sorry, Tom.

You have left when you were most needed.

Just like I did with Jenny.

Is not the same thing.

I'm just like him!

No, that's not true.

That's why you'll go back to Jenny.

Because she loves you...

for what you are.

Because she's waiting for you...

and that's why

you have to stay alive.

Attention.

I have enough ammo for them all!

You're right,

we know the maneuver.

What maneuver?

The maneuver, the Schumann Maneuver!

You're kidding,

it's never going to work!

If animals are attacking

you all at once.

they'll make you fall

and the mine will explode!

Quick, there's no time!

Yes, exactly.

You must attach the sole to the ground.

It should work.

The mine sensor won't sense

the pressure change immediately.

Do you know anyone there who did it?

Bravo!

At least we'll be able to get

a few tenths of a second more!

You may not get out in one piece,

but at least get out alive!

Now, Marine...

Dig!

That's bullshit!

Go ahead!

Don't stop!

Strength!

Keep digging!

Dig, Marine, dig!

Strength!

Mike, do it now.

Do it now!

Your Highness...

I solemnly swear...

to be a brave knight,

Reverent...

and always friendly.

A champion...

in truth and justice.

I solemnly swear...

to be honest...

and good.

I swear...

to protect our Kingdom.

And I swear it all...

in your presence...

my princess.

Now can I have that beer,

please?

Margo 4...

Alpha Margo 4,

This is Oxen.

Do you copy?

Over.

Oxen. Oxen, I'm here...

Alpha...

Alpha Margo...

It's me.

It's Mike.

Copy.

Copy, Alpha Margo 4...

The convoy for the extraction

is on the way.

Echo Bravo 3 is coming in your direction,

Sergeant...

The convoy is requesting...

Eco Bravo 3 and is still under fire.

They are delayed.

The new ETA for the extraction

is now 17 hours.

Did you copy that, Sergeant?

You've got to last

another 17 hours, Sergeant.

Can you do it?

I can't.

Sergeant Stevens...

I'd like to mention that

we have someone here.

Given his situation, we decided

to call his...over.

Is it Jenny?

May I please speak with Jenny?

Communication unclear...

Do you copy?

Can you hear me?

Sweetheart?

Jenny, I'm sorry.

I ruined everything, like always.

But at least this time,

don't say it's okay.

There's no need...

to say that "this is the deal,"

I can't adjust and

I ruin everything.

Because I broke our pact.

I shouldn't have left.

I should have stayed.

I had to make a lot of changes...

but everything I touch falls apart.

All the good things are destroyed.

And that's why I'm here.

I'm a free man but not always a lucky one.
