Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol Page #2

Synopsis: In the fourth installment of the Mission Impossible series, Ethan Hunt and a new team race against time to track down Hendricks, a dangerous terrorist who has gained access to Russian nuclear launch codes and is planning a strike on the United States. An attempt by the team to stop him at the Kremlin ends in a disaster, with an explosion causing severe damage to the Kremlin and the IMF being implicated in the bombing, forcing the President to invoke Ghost Protocol, under which the IMF is disavowed, and will be offered no help or backup in any form. Undaunted, Ethan and his team chase Hendricks to Dubai, and from there to Mumbai, but several spectacular action sequences later, they might still be too late to stop a disaster.

Captain, one is in the archive!

Someone is pickybacking our frequency.

Team leader, awaiting your go sign. Standing by to detonate.

Abort!

Rendezvous nod 2.

What is it?

Close the gate!

Immediately!

Our media is no more thruthful than yours ...

...American.

But we both know, that there'll cause of the explosion was you.

Awaiting your go sign, Team leader. Standing by to detonate.

The worst part for you, team leader...

is I'm the man assigned to make you suffer for it,

for what you did to my country.

This is clinic, not a bar.

Stop looking at me.

Misha, help me with him. Quick!

I think you're proud to have survived.

I have a few questions I would ask them.

Watch where you walk!

- Go and get my car.

- Okay.

Look there!

Not a good idea.

Seem like one ... a minute ago.

What are you doing? Damn!

I can not believe it.

All units, we have a fugitive. He took her to the west.

Insolidated insurance. How may I help you?

Search 20. Agent A2 delta echo requesting immediate "evac".

Rendezvous Alpha 1-1-3.

Confirmed. Alpha 1-1-3.

Anna, Anna, Anna.

I told myself ...

We should leave town for a couple of days.

Alex, you, me. Vacation.

- Now?

- Tonight.

Who we will go, father?

just, just the three of us.

Where will we go?

Leonid?

(news) ...has been transported to anear hospital for treatment.

While Russian Officials continue to blame

a gas main break.

Experts has citing the shape of the blast area,

and the size of debris field is more consistent with

anonymous sand explosive.

Any speculations may have been an undeclared act of aggression.

Although the Defence Ministry is maintaining that this is strictly an accident...

Anna, pack a bag for Alex.

We're leaving now.

Anna.

Anna.

We have work to do.

Mr. Secretary.

There's in no way you're in Russia.

I'm not. Not since a bomb blew up the Kremlin.

Yesterday I flew in to accept the order of friendship from Russian Prime Minister.

Now I'm headed back to Washington,

to hand the President my resignation.

My chief analyst, William Brandt.

- A pen

- Pardon me?

- A pen.

Here.

Ethan, what happened in the Kremlin?

Chief analyst you say?

- I'm implying that I made about a call ...

- Europian male.

Fifties, about 6 foots, 180 pounds, blue eyes. Who is he?

Crude drawing, but by your description..

... that could be Kurt Hendricks.

Professor of Physics, Stockholm University

Specialist in nuclear and game theory.

Asked to resign ...

... Well, because he's crazy.

Cobalt.

You have to allert the Kremlin that one of their strategist

has a nuclear launch device.

And what if his operative has the code activated

What makes you say that?

I saw him.

Leaving the executive armory bag in hand,

he set off that explosion to cover his tracks.

It maybe weeks before the Russians know it's missing.

- Unless we tell them.

- They won't listen to us.

As far as the Russian has concerned, we just bombed the Kremlin.

Tension between United States and Russia, hasn't been this high

since the Cuban Missile Crisis.

And the blame, right or wrong, points to IMF.

President has innitiated Ghost Protocol.

The entire IMF has been disavowed.

So what's happened now?

Now I've been ordered to take you back to Washington.

Where D.O.D will labelled you as rough extremist,

and hang the Kremlin bombing on you and your team.

Unless ...

... you were to escape somewhere between here and the airport

airing on assaulted Mr. Brandt and me.

Sir?

You will then illegally scrounge

whatever material you could from backup supply cash..

that I've overlooked the same cash..

- ..for your team awaiting for further orders.

- Sir, you may wanna read ...

You will then disappeared.

And this conversation never having taken place..

but your intention would be unclear.

But if anyone of your team is caught or killed,

they will be branded terrorists,

out to incite a global nuclear war.

Your mission.

Should you choose to accept it.

Ethan, you're my best man.

And I'm sorry it's come to this,

after all the sacrifices you've made.

We don't meet again, I just want you to know ...

I will always consider you a friend ...

Stay down. Drive, drive, drive!

- Are you okay?

- Yes.

Take deep breaths, stay with me.

- ready?

- yes

What do we do?

Wait here.

Where else to might I go?

Hey! hey, hey, hey.. There!

Stop! Hold your fire!

Hold your fire!

Enough!

Perhaps more are still alive.

Today, in a nearby prison two inmates escaped.

Who is this? What we know about him?

Why would that work?

- Why what work?

- The flare on the body.

- What watt were they work?

- They did work.

- Yeah, I know that...

- Hey!

- But why?

- I mean, how did you know that would draw their fire?

- I didn't.

I played a hunch.

okay?

All right. What was your scenario?

Right, there was a guy being shot at the water.

All the sudden, such a light out of a flare, turn around?

I mean, what you assume maybe thinking

- thinking?

- yeah.

I didn't assume they were thinking.

I assumed they were shooting at anything to move

and that just give them a target. But these ...

These guys are not schollars, you know?

- This is really happening, isn't it?

- Yeah.

- Okay. You know what that sound is?

- It's our ride out of here.

Our ride's green car, with 47.

I see three.

Okay, Let's do it! go, go, go, go!

- All right. Forty-seven.

- I don't see it.

- Forty seven.

Oh sh*t!

This is it. Where's the pass?

Enter your code.

Press ENTER.

Retinal scanner.

Retinal scan required.

Watch out.

Retinal scan required.

Agent confirmed.

Ethan?

Geez, I thought you were died.

- We are.

- Who's this?

Agent. Dunn and Carter.

William Brandt, chief analyst.

Analyst.

Agent confirmed.

Power of the world finally end.

It is my job to predict the unthinkable.

To treat the death of billions as a game.

After 20 years of this, I was none.

Until a new question crossed my mind.

What happens after the end of the world?

Are you sure your line is secure?

Every 2 or 3 million years ...

Are you certain your line is secure?

... some natural catastrophy devastates all life on earth.

But life goes on.

And what little remain is made stronger.

Put simply world destruction, isn't unpleasant..

..but necessary part of evolution.

What happens then, I wondered.

When mankind faces the next end of the world.

I don't care what you have to do, to get him to Dubai.

I'll make you worse as well. Just do it.

- I look to Hiroshima, Nagasaki.

- Well, I'll be waiting for your call.

Thriving cities, rebuilt from the ashes.

Monuments to unimaginable

dedicated to the concept of peace.

It's occured to me here, that nuclear war..

might have a place in the natural order.

But only if it could be controlled.

Only if attached every living song equally.

IMF and I believe this man, Kurt Hendricks, is a nuclear extremist.

Codename, Cobalt.

Today he was seen leaving the Kremlin, that would most likely

a nuclear launch device.

A few days ago, Sabine Moreau killed one of our agents in Budapest.
