Mission: Impossible III Page #4

Synopsis: A man named Owen Davian kills an IMF agent that was sent undercover by the legendary Ethan Hunt, who has retired from combat missions. Hunt now has a fiancé, Julia, who believes that he works for the traffic department when he really trains younger IMF agents to go into combat. He is assigned to his last mission. His mission, should he choose to accept it is to capture Davian, who is selling a toxic weapon called the rabbits foot. But Davian is reckless, cruel, and deathly. He promises Hunt that he will find Julia, hurt her, and Ethan will be too dead to help her. The mission is no more different to others, its dangerous, smart, and impossible; but now it's personal.

Taken care of. We're good to go.

- Delta team, do you copy?

- All I do is copy.

That's funny.

Get ready to move into position.

- I'm already there.

- Really?

ETA 30 seconds.

See you in 30.

Alpha team moving into position.

Bravo standing by for transmission.

Transmitting.

Got you.

Miss Onia Demea.

I should be on the list. Thank you.

I'm sorry. Your name is not here.

There must be some mistake.

Miss Demea?

Just a minute.

She made it.

We have a photo opportunity.

Just give me the word. I'm standing by.

Delta, ready for upload.

Delta team, download good.

Listen, man, I didn't mean to be

so cavalier the other day

about you getting engaged.

I know that. Thanks.

But a normal relationship

isn't viable for people like us.

- I don't agree with that.

- Then I'm smarter than you.

I'm going up. I agree with Luther.

We can't have real relationships.

But you see, I love that.

Twenty-three months.

That's as long as it'll last

when you got the baggage we do

and the lifestyle we got.

- Really?

- Yeah, really.

Look at me.

I know what I'm talking about.

And you know

I know what I'm talking about.

Wait here.

Davian just picked up a briefcase.

We're going to have to

move sooner than we thought.

- Can you identify who made the drop?

- Negative. How close are you guys?

We're just printing now.

I'm not proud of it.

I'm not happy about it,

but I've lived with women a few times,

and it doesn't ever make it to two years.

- You can't.

- Thanks for the advice,

but it's different for me

than it is for you, you know?

- I'm not in the field anymore.

- Oh, okay.

Here's a retirement present.

In our job, there's always going to be

something between you and a woman.

Always.

- Luther, listen.

- Dishonesty.

A dishonesty that poisons everything.

I think I need to tell you something...

Stop talking. This isn't about you, Ethan.

And whoever this girl is, you're going to

end up messing up her life, too.

Don't do it.

Jules and I got married two days ago.

Congratulations.

Thanks. Thanks.

- He's walking. I'm going in.

- Roger that.

I'm on my way.

Ma'am. I need you to step back.

No. It's fine. It's fine. It's fine.

I always spill red wine

on my white custom-made shirt.

- Okay. Step back.

- It's fine. It's fine. Bathroom.

Tell me you're on your way.

I'm on the move.

Move it. Come on.

His bodyguards

are checking out the bathroom.

I'm almost there.

He's going in.

Quiet. Read this.

Slowly.

Read it.

"The pleasure of Buzby's company

"is what I most enjoy.

"He put a tack on Miss Yancy's chair

"when she called him a horrible boy.

"At the end of the month

he was flinging two kittens

"across the width of the room.

"I count on his schemes to reveal the..."

- What the hell is this?

- Finish.

Alpha, you're about to have a visitor.

Finish!

"...a way to escape my gloom."

Got it.

Alpha, do you copy?

The guard's on his way.

Delta, stall him. I need more time.

It's too late for that. He's in the hallway.

Sir, is everything all right?

Everything is not all right.

Voice mask is still compiling.

I need 30 seconds.

Sir?

Sir?

Six seconds, I'm uploading.

- A way to escape my gloom.

- Okay. Go.

- A way to escape my gloom.

- Okay. Go.

I'm fine. Wait outside.

See you in the sewer.

- She's sorry about your shirt.

- That's no problem.

Her hotel has laundry service,

and she'll happily take care of it.

You want to wash my shirt?

What are we going to do

while we're waiting in your hotel room,

and I'm not wearing my shirt?

She'll think of something.

She would like to drive.

Follow me to the hotel.

Sir, would you like us

to watch the case?

No.

- Nice job.

- Thank you.

- What's up?

- Nothing. What's up with you?

Nothing.

Blow the car.

Oh. It's such a nice car.

And yet, do it.

...covered some hot spots

over in central Eurasia.

I direct your attention

to the third satellite image in the series

forwarded to us by our friends...

Mr. Musgrave to see you.

Send him in.

Ethan Hunt and his team

just grabbed Owen Davian in Rome.

They're headed back now.

I thought you should know.

You were aware of this operation?

Yes, I was.

Then good work.

Thank you.

You're dead, Mr. Davian.

There were witnesses.

That was you in the bathroom.

Now, you're going to tell us everything.

Every buyer you've worked with.

Every organization.

What the hell is your name?

Names, contacts, inventory lists.

You have a wife, girlfriend?

It's up to you how this goes.

Because you know

what I'm going to do next?

I'm going to find her, whoever she is,

I'm going to find her,

and I'm going to hurt her.

You were apprehended carrying details

of the location of something

code named the Rabbit's Foot.

I'm going to make her bleed, and cry,

and call out your name.

And you're not going to be

able to do sh*t. You know why?

What is the Rabbit's Foot?

Because you're going to be

this close to dead.

And who is the buyer?

And then I'm going to kill you

right in front of her.

- I'm going to ask you one more time.

- What's your name?

- What is the Rabbit's Foot?

- Who are you?

And who is the buyer?

You don't have any idea

what the hell is going on, do you?

I mean, you saw what I did to your

little blonde friend at the factory, right?

Well, that was nothing. That was

fun.

That was fun.

What is the Rabbit's Foot?

- Ethan!

- What is the Rabbit's Foot?

Ethan, stop!

What is it?

Don't do it!

- Ethan!

- What is the Rabbit's Foot?

You tell me!

Ethan, stop! Don't do it.

This isn't you, man! This isn't you!

We can use him, Ethan! You know that!

No, Ethan! Don't do it!

Please, stop!

What I'm selling,

and who I'm selling to,

is the last thing

you should be concerned about,

Ethan.

Ethan, we got it. Lindsey's microdot.

It's a video file.

Ethan, I don't know what they've

told you. I don't know what you think.

Just listen to me.

Brassel sent me to Germany

to surveil an exchange,

to ID a man named Owen Davian.

I tagged his phone,

and I intercepted a transmission.

I traced the call through the

IMF network, and this is what came up.

The call to Davian

came from Brassel's office.

It's Brassel.

I think he's working with Davian.

I think I'm being set up...

Ethan!

You all right?

Someone call for help!

Does anyone have a cell phone?

Everybody, get down!

Get down! Get down, get down!

Everybody, get down!

- There's a woman down.

- I see her.

Get down! Get down! Stay down!

Everybody, get down! Get down!

Stay down!

Get down!

Open up!

Open up! I need the prisoner!

Oh, my God!

It's really bleeding.

Don't leave me, okay?

Don't worry. I'm right here.

Ethan, there's a G36 in the truck!

I know! I know!

Turn the drone around.

There's an IMF agent in the truck.

Ethan! Get out of the truck!

Ethan, move!

- Hello?

- Rick, this is Ethan. Is Julia home?

Hey, man. Look, I hope you're not mad

I'm here. It's just...

Rick, I'm not mad. Is Julia home?

I tried her cell phone,
