Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol Page #4

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.

Listen, that's not gonna happened!

- I won't allow it.

- 33, and climbing.

Brandt, use your head. The mission is not the code, the mission is Hendricks.

And this little play out, give him back codes neutralize it.

You know that won't do it. Failure to a terrorist...

...just a rehearsal for success.

We lose Hendricks today, he shows up somewhere else tomorrow.

He finds another way. With no IMF to stop him.

Now, it's now or never. Now hand me the case.

Nothing left to chance. You said that !

You're the analyst. Now tell me..

..there's another way for Hendricks to get those codes.

- 50!

You tell me that this is only happened

right here, right now. Today!

You tell me that, I'll walk away.

- We go without!

- Without masks?

- Changes to go.

- Ethan!

- We have no choice.

- Ethan, you will be walking on Moreau unarmed.

- Face first. Literally.

- How do we know they've met?

- How do we know they haven't?

- It doesn't matter!

Damn! We have no choice.

Goggles.

What if they have met?

Come in.

Which of one you is Wistrom?

Which one of you is Wistrom?

I am.

I admire your work.

Sit.

Where are my codes?

Where are my diamonds?

close by.

- You have my payment?

- When I see the codes.

Not to worry. Come in!

I thought we could have tea.

Madam moiselle.

Misseur.

No diamonds, no codes.

No codes, no diamonds.

- Kill this one!

- We didn't came alone.

That hole I lay out there is killbox.

- You know who we work for.

- We come back for its codes,

or we don't come back.

- How good is your backup ?

- The best.

Kill them the best.

Do you care for some sugar?

Enough. Let's get this done.

You want payment? I want guarantees.

When he's authenticated the codes, I'll make a call and get your diamonds.

That, or ...

We alll go home in buckets.

Nobody leaves this hotel alive.

Get the papers .

- Is there a problem?

- It's locked.

Ah, forgive me.

There must be a key. For momento.

Misseur.

My mistake. It is a combination. Not a key.

You tell me the numbers!

We're good.

Zero

zero

zero

Come on, come on, come on, came on, came on.

It was a pleasure doing business with ...

Wistrom has launch codes and he's on the move.

Hey, I did what you asked, I did!

- Now let my family go.

- Release Leonid's family.

- Thank God!

- You can thank me in person.

It was a pleasure doing business with you.

Kill him!

Moreau's on the move!

I've got her.

Jane, she's an asset.

I need her alive.

Acknowledge!

Acknowledge!

Ah, Ethan, Wistrom is in the elevator. I can't see Leonid there.

Benji, slow it down. Give me an elevator.

I'll handle it.

Benji, I got a lot call of Wistrom, but I can't tell. Is he still in the elevator?

- Wistrom ... elevator ...

- Benji?

- Ethan, over!

- Benji. Benji, I lost.

Ethan, can you hear me?

Ethan, can you hear me? over!

Geez!

- Watch her!

- Why, why me?

If I'd do it, I'll kill her.

Hold it, Team Leader.

Do you really think I wouldn't catch up of you?

You and I are not enemies. It was a setup.

We'll find out your lies soon enough. Move it!

I'm sorry about this.

Leonid!

- Benji?

- Cover Benji!

I've got Leonid by the elevator, he's been shot.

What?

Hey, hey, stay with me, stay with me!

"No, no no no no no no no no no...

Jane, don't!

Now what happened with Moreau, Jane?

- She couldn't help us with...

- Yeah, so let's throw her off the building?

- I didn't throw her!

- That's throw her off the building!

She was not the mission, Jane.

The mission was to track the file back to Hendricks.

Whose in the wind ...

Better have good news for me. Is he here?

I got it. Talk to you later. I'll be there.

But no one will be following me. Just make sure no one's following you.

- And how the hell that the Russians find us?

- Why do you ask me for?

Because you are in communication. You in charge covering our tracks.

We can not afford to make mistakes like that now, Benji.

You are not a technician anymore. You're field agent.

And you're just an analyst?!

Right? Right?

Who are you really, Brandt?

- What do you ask me?

- What am I asking?

Let me see if I can put in another ...

How does an agent whose skills like that, end up an analyst?

What if we all have secrets?

tell me, Ethan.

You tell me yours, I tell you mine.

I'm all clear.

I have friends in the region. Just sit tight. I'll send someone to get you out of here.

What about Hendricks? What's the plan?

The plan was first to stop him together.

- And what would you gonna do?

- Change the plan.

Wait, that's it?

What we gonna do? go after him alone?

You can explain yourself, agent Brandt?

I was in a protection detail in Croatia.

Shadowing the assets, husband and wife.

We were never suppose to know we were there. Whole things routines as in no crap.

Three years in,we caught wind that this Serbian hit squad was after our couple.

But my team had it under control, I knew that they would coming.

But I couldn't shake this feeling that I should warn the couple somehow.

I wanted to.. find the way to let them know

But you know, orders are oders, so I didn't.

One day, the husband decides to leave the hotel and go for a run.

So I followed him.

And leave to men with the wife.

When I get back,

My guys were unconscious and the wife is gone.

Local police found the body three days later.

What was left over anyway.

It was my last day on the field.

I couldn't face another life or death situations after that.

So, what happened with her husband?

Never saw him again.

Until two days ago, in Moscow, when the Secretary introduced me to Ethan Hunt.

No, that's not what happened. She left him, you know.

I heard that one too, Benji.

But, unfortunately, I was there.

Just like I was there when the Secretary got the phone call..

..that Ethan was in custody for killing 6 Serbian nationals in cold blood.

- ah, I'm sorry, shouldn't hit?

- Yeah.

Disavowed.

Last thing I know ... I am on the plane to Dubai.

Wondering the old time ... Do I tell him?

How do I tell him?

That I'm responsible.

I could've warned him. I should've warned him.

But I didn't.

And she died.

Sergei! Sergei, my friend!

I told you, I was gathered here. Didn't I say?

- I don't know it's him?

- Yes, it's him.

You trust me, I trust you, right?

This is the guy! This is the guy,

the one I told you about.

So, we can take these things off.

Sorry, he's a great guy, but he doesn't know you like I do,

you understand.

So, you work for American government?

- And you are an arm stealer.

- No, no! Sergei, Sergei!

He's independent defense coordinator, right?

That's right, very classic job.

- Listen, he's a friend.

- Those diamonds are for Bogdan.

No, no, it's okay. He can have it.

Whatever arrangements you made with my cousin, it's between you and him.

You want something from me, you pay.

You misunderstand. I am not buying.

I'm selling.

You selling?

- Selling what?

- The future.

Yeah, I got all I need, thank you.

Our countries are on the break of war.
