Saw your names on a mission roster.

I knew this was a top priority...

but for them to embed you both...

Well, you don't have to worry about me.

I'm not worried about you, doc.

I'm worried about it.

She's hoping it's cloaking technology.

What do you think it is?

Something no one's thought of yet.

Gentlemen, yesterday at 1800 hours,

Utah Team left here on a recon mission

to Durlesti,

when they were engaged by insurgents.

We managed to hear most

of their chatter during the firefight,

but come were unreliable.

Target is a five-story

apartment building here.

We think what's left of Utah is being held on the fourth floor,

in the northwest corner apartment.

We're gonna be knee-deep

in an insurgent-held area.

So, we should expect a fight.

One last thing.

Before our guys were grabbed,

they radioed in that they saw

what we're calling

hyperspectral anomalies.

Your mission is a quick extraction.

You get our guys and you get out.

However, if engaged,

neutralize the anomalies in the area.

(Toll) Neutralize them?

- How?

- Yeah, what are we dealing with here?

We believe these are enemy soldiers

in advanced electronic camouflage.

- So, be surgical when you fire.

- If we don't really know what they are...

Excuse me?

Would you like to add something?

If they are wearing cloaking technology,

you need to bring it back

as intact as possible.

Dr. Clyne and Agent Madison

will be on mission with you.

Dr. Clyne will be monitoring

your helmet-cam feeds

from the second MRAP vehicle

in the convoy.

Major Sessions will lead Dagger Team 1

to do the extraction.

Stay on come. Get your gear.

- (man 1) Partner, let's go.

- (man 2) AJ, front and center.

(man 3) Weapons check, Billy.

(man 4) You got it.

(man 1)

Our ride not smooth enough for you?

(man 2)

And you call yourself hard-ass.

(man 3) They really need

to repave these roads, man.

All right, guys,

we're coming into the abandoned zone.

Expect a heavy insurgent presence.

(indistinct chattering over radio)

(man) Okay.

(Sessions)

I've got an insurgent body here.

I got Agopia from Utah Team.

Confirmed KIA.

None of these guys appear to have taken

any rounds. No entry or exit wounds.

Alessio here. Moving to the fifth floor.

- We got movement.

- Toll, check your 2 o'clock.

Where? We don't see anything.

- That's it. Right there.

- You're right on top of it.

(Clyne) It's a motion signature.

There's something under that tub.

(Sessions) Lewis, the tub.

I want you to flip over the tub.

- Toll, I want you on what's underneath.

- I'm on it.

One, two, three.

We have Comstock alive and conscious.

Repeat. We have Sergeant Comstock

from Utah Team.

(grunts)

(grunting)

Hey, buddy.

- Where's the rest of your team?

- They're upstairs.

But they're all gone.

Got under their skin.

- What got under their skin...?

- I saw it.

- But...?

- Blanket.

Like a frozen blanket.

- Okay, where is the rest of Utah?

- Oh, they're dead.

Yeah, they're all dead.

We're all dead.

- Where are the bodies?

- I told you, they're on the top floor.

Oh, you haven't seen it.

I've seen it.

You know I believe in God, John.

This is the opposite of God.

Wait. Who's this?

Can you tell him to turn back?

McFadden, turn back.

Give us a view of that room.

(McFadden) Nothing's there.

I'm standing right here.

Mac, we're both staring right at it.

It's in the middle of your view port.

What? That? It's a smear.

Probably these piece-of-sh*t goggles.

- No, no, no. Tell him to put them back on.

- Mac, put the goggles back on.

Mac, do it now.

- What the...?

- Take the shot.

They went right through it.

- Did he miss?

- He doesn't miss.

(whirring)

Major Sessions, we have a KIA.

McFadden.

A hyperspectral target is

on the fifth floor, northwest corner.

Switch to heavy rounds or 203s.

Whatever you have to do

to bring this thing down.

(grunting)

(thudding)

Tell them to pull out.

(thudding)

There!

(grunts)

(man) Get everyone out now!

- Tell them to pull out now.

- No, we're not leaving empty-handed.

I guarantee you're leaving empty-handed.

Come on!

(man 1) Grenade!

- We need support!

- (Cabrera) Get out.

All units evacuate now.

Let's go. Get back to the truck.

(grunting)

(man 1) This room right here.

We can still grab him. Let's go! Move!

(man 2) Let's go, let's go, let's go.

(man 3) Go!

(man 4) Here. Here, Jim.

Hold on. Here.

Evacuating via south face!

I got Talbot, Comstock, Riedel and Shaire.

Five men down!

(whirring)

We gotta travel together

and we gotta stay tight. Can you do that?

(grunting) Oh, Jesus. Go!

(Clyne) Come on. Come on.

Move. Move, move.

(screeching)

(grunts)

(gasps)

(grunts)

(grunts)

(man) You got him? Let's go.

(grunting)

Get out of the way.

Where?

- Right there!

- Where is it?

In front.

We gotta get in. Move.

- Help him in.

- Come on!

- Get in here!

- In you go.

No.

No.

(man 1) Go, go!

- (man 2) Move!

- (man 3) Get in.

- Hey!

- (man 4) Go, go!

We're in! Go!

Hold on, where's Cabrera?

Where's the captain?

Talk to me. Did you see him?

- Come on, talk to me, man.

- I saw him die.

- What?

- I saw him die.

- I'm going home.

- (Fran) Yeah.

- I'm going home.

- Hey, hey, hey. It's okay.

Look at me. Look at me.

- Did you see it?

- Yeah.

- You saw it. How close did you get?

- I was in a room with it for hours.

That tub saved my life.

I could feel it.

(whimpers)

- Okay.

- I could feel it.

Land mines! Hold on!

(grunting)

(grunting)

(grunting)

(coughing)

(coughing continues)

Hey, buddy, look at me. No, no, no.

Sh*t.

(man 1) Open the door.

(man 2) Yeah.

- (man 1) Come on. Now, move.

- (man 3) Come on.

Both drivers are dead.

Archer Lima 2. Hit a land mine.

Both vehicles destroyed.

(radio static)

We are...

three clicks southeast of target building.

(man over radio)

We are losing your transmission.

Your transponders are down.

No sh*t.

Our vehicles were just blown to hell.

We need to find cover.

- I can't hear what you're saying.

- Clyne, leave the camera.

(man 1) Come on, Clyne.

(man 2) Go, go, go.

(man 3) Move, move.

(man 4) Cover.

- Let's go.

- (man 5) Get up, get up.

(man 1) Come on.

(man 2) Go, go, go.

(man 4) Where you been?

(Sessions shouts)

Clear.

(Sessions) Who's injured?

- Diaz?

- (Diaz) I think my ankle's broke.

We need an airlift.

I can't get a signal to base. Keep trying.

(Talbot) Com.

Get over here. Get over here.

(man) Yeah.

(Talbot) Archer Lima 2. Archer Lima 2.

This is Dagger Team 1, over.

(man 1) I'm good. I'm good.

(man 2) Can they get in that way?

(man 3) You all right?

(Talbot)

Archer Lima 2, this is Dagger Team 1.

Do you copy? Over.

Archer Lima 2, this is Dagger Team 1.

Do you copy? Over.

Hey.

- How you doing? You're bleeding.

- Hmm?

Okay.

You hit your head.

You hit your head.

Did you black out?

Yeah, I guess so.

Major.

- She hit her head pretty bad.

- Let me see.

Pupils are huge.

Sir, I'm sending

but they're not receiving.
