- No, thanks.

Actually, maybe you can tell me

how to get to Talisay.

- Just down the road.

- l'm sorry.

l'm gonna have to take this.

- Okay.

Don't work too hard.

That was quick.

- l saw the news.

You're turning my men

into terrorists now?

- Yeah, well, somebody needs

to take the fall

for this little misstep,

don't they?

would you prefer it

to be you, Mr. Secretary?

You know, this whole situation

with Oaptain Fierson

might actually help us,

because everybody's

so completely focused on him,

leaves us to get on

with our work in peace, right?

- Do we have the chip yet?

- No.

But l'm pretty sure

l know who has it.

- Then we're safe.

Yeah, hardly.

This is gonna be

a much easier exchange.

You're gonna be

a very rich man, Henry.

l'll be in touch, okay?

- Juan, l'm worried

about you breaking this story.

l don't want you to sell out

to the highest bidder.

- Are you kidding?

With a lead like this?

l can go from sh*t reporter

to real journalist.

- Juan, you're our best option,

family.

l'm trusting you.

- Look, if what Nita says

is true,

l'm gonna get a big promotion.

You can count on me.

- Okay, primo.

We got a deal.

- Hey, guys.

Sorry to interrupt.

Oouldn't help but overhear

your enlightening conversation.

- That's my goddamn gun.

- A mistake.

- You guys know each other?

- Okay, shut up.

Where's the girl?

- You mean my daughter,

a**hole?

- So we meet again.

smack!

Not bad.

- Hey, hey.

Hey, hey, hey.

- Okay, okay.

- Hey, that's enough.

- You killed Dr. Kaitan.

- No, l didn't.

He's the one that told me

you had the chip.

He made me promise

to help you before he died.

Do you see them?

How many?

- Sh*t.

We got to hide.

- Juan.

l'll speak to them.

Everyone hide in the galley.

l can take care of this.

Good day, boys.

- You the only one here?

- Right.

Just me, myself, and l.

What's the big deal?

- Kaitan told me you'd fight.

- Why should l trust you?

- Haven't you seen the news?

They're calling me a traitor.

They're framing me

just like they're framing you.

They want us dead.

Now l need you and l need

that chip to clear my name,

to clear both our names.

- Sh*t, they're coming.

thud!

- Oh!

- See?

Nothing here.

Beautiful day.

- What's in there?

- Ooh!

- Oan you guys untie me now?

- We'll take that boat.

There's an island not far

from here

where we can hide out

the rest of night,

maybe head to Mindoro

tomorrow morning.

Got a cousin there

who can help us.

- Jesus, what's the plan?

Are we island hopping?

We got to get back

to Oebu.

- No.

Everyone's looking for us

in Oebu.

- Yeah, and there's only one

road in and out of this town.

Bet Abu Sayyaf are following me.

We'll take that boat.

She's all yours, Oaptain.

- l don't feel good

about this.

We can't just

leave civilization.

- The newscast got you

all crazy, huh,

thinking about

that big cash reward?

- Hey, are you loco?

l don't know

what you're talking about.

- Let me ask you something.

Were you gonna turn us in

to Abu Sayyaf or the Americans?

- What? No, man.

- l hope he can swim.

- That's my cousin.

- So l've been meaning

to ask you,

how did you get out of there,

off that island?

- Well, it wasn't so hard

after you killed everyone.

Plus l'm pretty sure

l blend in with the locals

a little bit better than you do.

- You still

don't f***ing get it, do you?

l was doing my job.

- Then why didn't you save

the doctor,

an American?

Wasn't our primary objective.

- ''Primary objective.''

l'm sorry l dragged you

into this.

l made you an accomplice.

- Don't say that, Nita.

l am a willing accomplice.

And you are

my brilliant daughter.

l couldn't be more proud of you.

Everything will be fine.

We'll fix this, okay?

- My objective hasn't changed.

l still need that chip

before we can finish this.

l know you have it, Nita.

- So what?

Oan you hold onto the chip?

Do you think

you're that indestructible?

- lt's safer with me.

You know that.

Thank you.

- Relax with the gun.

We got a deal here.

- Where'd they go?

Unless you're a complete fool,

you'll tell me everything

you know.

- The money.

Oh, yeah.

Said something about Mindoro.

- Start collecting some wood

for a fire.

- What do we need a fire for?

- You look hungry.

- Mmm, mmm.

l needed this.

l finally feel

like my brain's working again.

- What does that mean,

more questions?

- Actually, yes.

Who are these mercenaries?

Where do they come from?

- Military contractors.

Private armies hired

by big corporations.

- Why do they want

to kill their own men?

- They're not my men.

They don't answer

to our government.

They don't adhere

to our military code.

- Nita, are you okay?

- The device that we created

is just a prototype.

The chip is literally

the first and the only one.

They knew our research could

be used for nuclear weapons.

But Dr. Kaitan refused.

That's why he contacted Yates

in the first place.

- Yates?

- Peter Yates,

his old college friend,

the British journalist

who flew over to Hong Kong

to interview him

the day all of this began.

- lt's late.

You should get some sleep.

We got an early morning.

l'm gonna go check

this place out,

see if it's not safe enough

for us to get some shut-eye.

- His whole life has been

all about taking care of me.

l'm all he's got.

- What about your mom?

- l only know her through

his stories and memories.

She died when l was born.

Take the trip to Manila

once a month,

visit her grave

and bring her fresh flowers.

l do it now too.

Tell her my problems.

Swear l could feel a presence.

- Well, it sounds to me

like you had a good family.

- Let me guess.

You're back again,

empty-handed.

- Look, we know

where he's going.

- Yeah, yeah, we know

where he's going, uh-huh.

Let's just finish it, okay?

lt's bad enough already.

- Oan't you sleep, soldier?

- lt's Yates.

Kaitan ever get

to talk to him?

- No.

He was kidnapped

after his interview.

- Well, that's it, then.

We get the chip to Yates,

he could write our story.

- He's all the way back

in London.

We need to get to him.

- But you're getting ahead

of yourself there, Nita.

We have to get the chip before

we get it to Yates, don't we?

- l gave it to you already.

- You mixed it with a decoy.

- What are you talking about?

What makes you think

that's a decoy?

What the hell

did you do that for?

- Don't play games, Nita.

- Sorry about Dr. Kaitan.

Sounds like he was a good man.

- He was.

- All right.

Luiso.

- Como esta?

- Kyle, my cousin,

he's a resort-

- Como esta?

- He says you have good hair.

- Nice.

How about a phone?

- Since it's 500,

l'm expected at the club.

And after that...

l believe

l'm supposed to meet my wife.

Don't really want to see her.

Ah.

- Oall on line one.

- Thank you, Oheryl.

Excuse me.

Hello.

- Peter Yates, please.

- This is Yates.

- Oh, thank goodness.

This is Nita Santos,

Dr. Kaitan's-

- Yes, l know who you are,
