Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol Page #3

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.

We believe him off Russian nuclear launch code.

Intel indicates she would check in the Burj Hotel in Dubai

in 36 hours.

Mariusz Wistrom is known operative of Cobalt.

Wistrom is currently on route to Dubai.

For the launch device to work, Cobalt needs the activation codes.

He's sending Wistrom, to buy them from Moreau.

The Secretary is dead.

The President has invoked Ghost Protocol.

We're shut down.

No satellites, safehouse, support or extraction.

The four of us ...

... and the content of this car

are all that remain of the IMF.

And as if this moment any actions are unsanctioned.

So if you want out, speak now.

Our mission is Hendricks.

We're all distance between him and his goal,

nothing can be left to chance.

Everyone connected with this man is considered an asset

with valuable information about our target.

No one can know we're still online.

We lose Hendricks now, we lose him forever.

So, what's the plan?

Wistrom will take delivery from Moreau in 36 hours.

Now we can not let the launch codes leave the hotel.

But we need Wistrom to lead us to Hendricks.

Yeah, we only do that if he has the codes

- Or if he thinks he has it.

- Objective. ..

... is to intercept the sale.

Place the authentic codes with counterfeits.

- and follow Wistrom to Hendricks.

- Well, that's, that's simple enough.

We just, we snatch the codes, we generate some fakes.

Jane, you double Moreau and sell the codes to Wistrom.

And bob your ankle.

And how do you propose, that we just snatch the code from Moreau?

You take her out.

Yeah, we take her out,but you know, discreetly.

- Discreetly?

- Yeah.

- Right, she's an asset.

- Right.

I get it. Sorry. Nothing left to chance, he said.

I'm just, I'm a spit bowling. You know, it's not all gonna be go.

- We don't touch Wistrom..

- All right.

-..or Moreau.

As you asked for Hanaway, but it has to be when I say.

After we had Hendricks.

- Only pack what we need.

- Yeah absolutely.

Only pack what we need. You never know.

DUBAI:

So even if we can double Wistrom and Moreau,

How do we keep them in separate rooms,

Or having they think they are in the same room?

We give the hotel a facelift.

Wistrom will think he's arriving at Moreau's suite.

But really, he will be walking into our decoy room.

Where I'll double Moreau.

Downstairs Benji will double Wistrom...

- a masks!

- And meet with real Moreau.

And eh, huh, What am I doing?

You? You're the helper.

Help ... okay.

So, to the extent understand what are you talking about here ...

uhm, Burj Khalifa, the tallest building in the world.

And you want to alter its infrastructure,

with the hopes of convincing two people that

they had a meeting, which actually really never happened ...

Right?

Camels.

ETA on dry cleaning.

I'm on my way out.

Okay, 34 minutes to doorknock.

wow,.. ehm, okay. this, this is a slight wrinkle,.. nothing, nothing to worry about.

We're just gonna have to go into server room, from the outside.

- What?

- Well, the firewalls in this building serve a military grade.

I mean, this would be a synched if I could call Yusuf back at headquarter,

but Yusuf doen't exist anymore, and neither do we.

I could hack it, but it would take too long.

Their hardware in.

And there's four layers of an exchange security because not in server-in.

and there is no way we can get into it from inside.

If we can't get through the server, we don't control the elevators, we don't control security cameras.

This operation is over even before it begins.

I'm telling you we can get to it from outside.

We?

I'm, I'm on the computer.

I'm just a ... the helper.

- What floor is it now?

- 130.

- Vent out?

- pressure's unstiff.

don't have enough time.

- Elevator shaft.

- infrared sensors.

don't have enough time.

How am I suppose to do this?

Dammit!

Oh, that's high.

Okay, now remember, it's a rolling off motion, that disengages the bond.

When the emitter is blue, that's full adhesion.

Easy way to remember. "Blue is glue."

- And when it's red?

- Dead.

ah, here's your cutter, okay?

And your server interface.

Both going back here.

One, two.

Okay Ethan, holds-all service, 11 stories up

and 7 units over.

Okay?

- Com check?

- Yeah, copy.

So ...

It's 26 minutes to doorknock.

Yeah ...

What the hell is that?

Hell, what the hell is that?

It's a sandstorm.

It's a long way off, Ethan. There's shouldn't be a problem.

Where is Ethan?

You gotta be kidding me.

I'm in the server level.

Your countdown is not helping.

I'm just saying.

- I'm in.

- That's great, Ethan. You're half way home.

Located server.

Please tell me we're online.

All right, we're live.

Okay, now I have control of the elevators.

- And the security cameras.

- Time to evacuate.

Okay. You drive, and look out for Wistrom and Moreau.

Moreau is at the elevator. It has resceduled.

Go.

- We can't open this door, can we?

- That door? No.

Ethan you gotta get down here now.

Ethan. Ethan. Is there a problem?

Ethan?

- We're not gonna make it.

- We have to make it.

Where is Ethan?

- Your line is not long enough!

- No, sh*t!

That was not easy, but I, I did it.

What I missed?

The lense might be a little uncomfortable.

It captures images and transmits them to the printer in the briefcase.

- All right?

- hmm...

I can't see, one eye right of it, fine.

Blinks twice to activate the shutter.

Notice, the numbers are in order.

A perfect copy.

But the numbers are scrambled.

Masks? ah, 60 seconds.

Are you sure that I shouldn't wear a mask?

You know, cause I'm not exactly Omar Sharif.

I'll play a french. This is you tracking device.

- This is what you're tracking.

- paper clip?

No, it's a paper. It's in the briefcase.

It's caught to be isotops, which should give a unique ...

- It just means that you can track documents, even if they switch briefcases.

- Range?

- Not that good, like a half a mile (800 meters).

Safest thing to do not let Wistrom out of your sight.

Is that Wistrom?

Who's out with him?

- I don't know.

- We don't have an uplink, so there's no facial recognition.

Who's out with him?

That's Leonid Lisenker. Polish phone cryptographer.

He redesigned Russia's nuclear security at the Cold War.

He set off to authenticate the launch codes.

- yeah sh*t, we are blown.

- No, no, no.

Well, we'll would be as soon as he sees the counterfeit launch codes.

- We're not alone.

- He's in the elevator.

Delay it.

Benji, how long would take it reprogram the case?

Ah, a couple seconds. Wow, What for that?

- To make an exact copy of the launch codes.

- What?!

- You can't do that.

- Wistrom's on 22.

- Slow him down.

- I do what I can.

wait, wait, Ethan! Hey! Hang on now, hang on, just a second!

You, you're talking about handing over active nuclear launch code to Wistrom?

- the case, reprogram the case.

- Listen, listen, stop! Listen, listen.

You're saying you're fixating, you're thinking clearly.
