We follow them on the journey, close in on Molly's face. She looks
around not knowing what is out in the darkness. This takes courage
beyond compare.
We are once again with Molly. Eyes looking every which way. She
thinks she sees something in the field. Maybe nothing. On through
the bog of the bottom of the ditch.
Suddenly there is an almighty loud crack above their heads like
an explosion. The loudest noise they've ever heard shattering
the night. They all take cover and sh*t themselves. We see the
anxiety on all their faces. There are panicked shouts all around.
Molly is terrified. James turns to look at her.
KINDERS (O.S)
What the hell was that?!
JAMES:
Everybody stay down!
BAZ VEGAS:
Must have been a mortar... It's ringing
in my ear'oles!
James runs up the line checking on everyone and back down again.
We see Molly looking up to the heavens. Rain drops slowly start
to fall.
MOLLY:
It's thunder.
She shouts out.
MOLLY (CONT'D)
(relieved)
It's bloody thunder!
James looks up at the sky as there is another crash of thunder.
Suddenly it starts pouring down.
In relief they are able to laugh. They feel their hearts, and
get their breaths back. A moment of extreme anxiety has passed.
NUDE-NUT
Rain in Afghan?!
BAZ VEGAS:
I'm so not booking this again next year,
sir.
James looks at Molly with relief.
JAMES:
Everyone focus up. Smurf, on you go.
James looks at Molly again. They forge on in the rain.

Dawn is approaching over the mountains.
A long and arduous journey for 2 Section, but after several hours
they are nearing their destination. They stop and lay low near
the check point..
KINDERS:
That's the bridge 50 metres west, sir.
JAMES:
Got it. I can see the check point.
KINDERS:
That's the compound. 50 metres south.
JAMES:
Alright guys, let's secure the
compound. Baz and Smurf, lead on.
Smurf starts to make his way towards the compound. One by one
they all follow.
They are all running to the compound. Anxious. Excited. Adrenaline
flowing.
Smurf and Baz stand either side of the doors to the compound.
James nods to them and they enter the building, guns up and ready.

Mansfield and Smurf next. Then Fingers
and Brains, then Nude-Nut and Baz.
Dawes, I want you setting up a temporary
med centre.
MOLLY:
Boss.
JAMES:

MOLLY:
Yeah.
Qaseem looks at her. She senses this and looks up at him.
MOLLY (CONT'D)
What?
QASEEM:
We are doing the right thing. Never lose
sense of that.
MOLLY:
I just hope that the right thing doesn't
get those boys killed.
QASEEM:
Everything is under control.
MOLLY:
You volunteered for this mission.
QASEEM:
Yes.
MOLLY:
You could be safely tucked up in your
gaff in Kabul.
QASEEM:
This what? Gaff?
Qaseem looks at her puzzled. Molly laughs.
MOLLY:
House.
QASEEM:
We had an apartment.
MOLLY:
Did you sell it?
QASEEM:
There was an explosion.
Molly looks at him.
MOLLY:
Is that what happened to your wife and
daughter?
QASEEM:
Now I have nothing. Except the guilt.
MOLLY:
It weren't your fault.
QASEEM:
But I survived.. and sometimes I wish
I hadn't.
MOLLY:
So you volunteer for missions?
Qaseem half nods. The two of the looking at each other.
QASEEM:
Bashira's the age my daughter.. was..
And you are the age my daughter would
have been.
Molly is clearly moved. She studies Qaseem who looks close to
tears for the first time. He composes himself and walks off towards
the other room. Molly watches him go.

Through the window an Afghan soldier, Ramazan-Ali holds his arms
aloft.
