He says he needs to talk to you.

- Carl?

- Jack. James is dead.

Desmond's been shot.

- What happened?

- Juma's raising an army.

Desmond says they're

headed for the school.

They're coming for the boys,

Jack. You got to get them

into the shelter.

Thomas knows where it is.

How many guns are coming?

Maybe a dozen. I don't know.

You'll have to hold them off

till I get there.

Carl, you need to call

the embassy, get them to send

some marines out here.

I've been trying.

I can't get through.

Jack, go into my room.

You'll find what you need

in a locker under my sink. The

key's on top of the cupboard.

How far out are you?

Maybe five minutes.

Jack, don't let them

take my kids.

- Don't let them

take the children.

- Carl, I won't.

Everybody! Everybody,

I want you to listen!

I want you to go to the shelter

with Thomas. He's gonna

take you there now! Go!

What's going on?

I don't have time

to explain, Willie.

Just go with Thomas

and ring the bell. Now!

What about my brother?

Your brother's with Mr. Benton.

Everybody, follow me!

Juma's men are coming.

Do you have a weapon?

How do you know this

isn't just another rumor?

Do you have a weapon or not?

If they are coming,

I will talk to them.

They will listen to me.

Save your helmet for the parade.

They are coming. Two of our boys

have already been shot.

The United Nations

remains neutral

in this matter.

You son of a b*tch.

You still want

to talk to them?

I didn't think so.

Why don't you

go hide in the shelter

with the other children?

[ Bell Ringing ]

[ Willie Shouting ]

[ Bell Ringing Continues ]

[ Shouting ]

Willie! Enough. Let's go.

Let's go, Willie. Come on.

Come on!

Hurry, hurry.

[ Thomas ]

Boys, go!

Come on, Russell!

You're the last?

Yeah.

Wait! Wait for me.

[ Chattering ]

[ Whistling ]

[ Man Speaking

Native Language ]

Go! Find the boys!

Find them!

Fire!

Come!

[ Native Language Continues ]

[ Grunts ]

[ Man Shouting

In Native Language ]

[ Shouting Continues ]

[ Gunshot ]

[ Youssou ]

Keep going! This way!

There, there!

[ Gunshot ]

[ Grunts ]

[ Rifle C*cks ]

No.

Do not kill him yet--

Not until he tells us

where the children are hiding.

Bring him.

Stay here. Stay here.

Where are you going?

I'll be back in a bit.

[ Groaning ]

[ Youssou ]

String him up.

[ Native Language ]

Tie him up.

Yeah.

[ Chattering ]

[ Youssou ]

I want him to suffer.

[ Chattering ]

U.S. citizens only.

What about her?

She's not American.

She has family in the States.

I have a sister in Chicago.

She has a job.

She needs to sponsor you.

By then

it will be too late.

My husband

died fighting Juma.

Juma will kill me.

He will kill my child.

There's a U.N. camp

across the eastern border.

How will I get there?

I have no transportation.

The buses are all full.

I cannot walk.

I'm sorry.

Whatever you want me

to do for you, I will do.

Please.

Just take me from here.

[ Helicopter Whirring ]

Anything at all.

I can't. I'm sorry.

Sir, it's Carl Benton.

Please, don't let them

kill my baby!

Please! Please!

- Benton.

- I've been trying to

get through to you.

Yeah, our lines

are overloaded.

Juma's men are here.

They're raising an army.

We know.

You know?

Yeah, we don't know how

he managed to pull it off.

No one saw it coming.

But he's got soldiers

moving in on the capital.

They're here right now, Frank.

They're at my school.

- You have to send

some marines to help.

- I can't spare any.

They're all being deployed

for the evacuation.

- Evacuation?

- The orders came down

from the president.

We're rolling up all U.S.

nationals. We already started

ferrying people to the border.

Look, I got 14 kids

hiding in a shelter,

and one that's gonna bleed

to death if he doesn't get

medical attention.

If you want us to get you out,

get here on your own. The last

chopper's leaving in an hour.

Look, Frank. D-Don't

strand me like this, please.

My hands are tied, Carl.

Frank-- Tramell, please.

Sorry.

Please don't--

Damn it!

[ Whispers ]

Damn it.

[ Grunts ]

I'm running out of ways

to ask the question.

Where are the children?

Again.

- We have searched

all the buildings, sir.

- Keep looking.

You're wasting your time.

They're not gonna find anything.

I told you they're not here.

Wait.

You're lying.

No, I'm not.

If you wanna find soldiers

for your army,

you're gonna have to

look somewhere else.

Where...

are the children?

I told you--

I don't know.

- [ Sizzling ]

- [ Jack Screaming ]

[ Willie ]

Oh, Jack.

[ Screaming Continues ]

[ Grunts ]

[ Grunting ]

I will keep doing this

until you beg me to kill you.

But I won't kill you

even then.

[ Grunts ]

Not until you tell me...

what I want to know.

Please-- Please, no! No!

I'll show you

where the kids are.

Tell me.

I need to show you. They're

in an underground shelter.

No.

You will tell me

where this shelter is!

Okay.

About 200 meters

up the footpath.

Behind the tree line.

There's a wooden hatch

under a mound of dirt.

Please, just-- Please.

[ Sobbing ]

Get the children.

I will stay here

with him.

Don't worry.

Once I have these children,

I will kill you quickly.

[ Groans ]

[ Chamber Clicks Twice ]

[ Gunshots ]

[ Grunting ]

- [ Yells ]

- [ Groans ]

You all right, Jack?

Yeah. The kids

are in the shelter.

How is Desmond?

He's lost

a lot of blood.

The border's five hours

from here. I don't think

he's gonna make it.

I'm gonna try and get 'em

to the embassy. They've

started evacuating already.

How are you gonna get

the kids asylum?

They're not U.S. nationals.

I've got sponsorship papers.

Tramell's got to let them in.

But I have to go now, Jack.

The last chopper

leaves in an hour.

You all right?

Go. Go!

And, Jack, good luck.

Stay here.

Jack may need our help.

And if they catch you,

they will make you

tell them where we are.

You are endangering

the rest of us.

We wouldn't have

been in danger...

if you had done something

about Juma instead of

looking the other way.

Right. Everyone out.

Quickly.

Go to the bus.

Quickly.

Thomas, go get Desmond.

He's in the jeep

by the end of the footpath.

Quickly, quickly, quickly.

Go to the bus.

Go to the bus. Go to the bus.

Where is my brother?

Thomas has gone

to get him.

Then he's all right?

He will be. He will be.

Go to the bus.

Quickly, quickly.

[ Chattering In

Native Language ]

Desmond.

It's not as bad

as it looks.

Wait. Listen up!

Listen up!

Everyone, listen.

We're taking the bus

into the city.

Once we're on the road

I'll explain everything

that's happening. All right?

But we have to move now.

On the bus. Move.

Quickly. Quickly.

Solenz!

Where you going?

I told Mr. Bauer before.

The United Nations remains

neutral in this conflict.

A U.N. escort might help us

get where we need to go.

Solenz!

[ Jack ]

Let him go!

He's just trying to save

his own ass because he knows

the children are a target.

You're gonna need

my help, Carl.
