Dean dropped it...

the scope... in the line of duty.

He fell over trying

to pick it up, and I missed it.

I missed the sniper.

Okay?

You f***in' listening to me?!

I didn't see him.

That's how he got hit.

It was my fault!

Goddamn it,

[ Groans ]

Slower, man.

Slower, slower!

MAN ON RADIO:

Slower what?

What's going on?

Who are you talking to?

[ Groans ]

Who am I talking to?

[ Gunshots ]

I'm talking to f***ing God!

He's 90 feet up!

In the trash somewhere!

I don't f***ing know.

I'm sorry, man!

[ Gunshots ]

Give me, max plus four...

...six mils right!

Send when ready!

[ Gunshots ]

[ Gunshots ]

Did you get him?

[ Gasping ]

Oh, f***!

[ Matthews screaming ]

You bastard, you f***er!

Just f***in' let him go,

you piece of sh*t!

Shane! Get up man!

He ain't a threat

to you anymore,

just f***in' let him go!

MATTHEWS:

Goddammit. F***!

ISAAC:
Don't f***ing stop,

Just like that,

just like that baby, let's go!

F***, come on, man!

Come on!

Keep comin', man,

Come on!

Just like that, man!

Reach for me.

Reach for me!

[ Coughing continues ]

Wake up... wake...

[Wind blowing]

Wake up.

[ Sobbing ]

I wanna go home.

I wanna go f***in' home,

motherf***er!

MAN ON RADIO:

So go. Walk away.

You'll just f***in' shoot me.

MAN ON RADIO:

No, I won't.

Yes, you f***in' will.

Why wouldn't you?

MAN ON RADIO:

Because that's not really

what you want.

What?

MAN ON RADIO:

You don't want to go home,

do you?

What the f***'s that mean, man?

MAN ON RADIO:
The war's over,

you're still here.

Why?

I killed him.

I did.

He went

to go confirm a kill.

Enemy sniper.

Guy was playing possum.

Started shooting at Dean.

I tried shooting back, but the bullet

went right through Dean.

[Sobbing ]

Oh, man, I lied...

I f***in' lied so much.

Tryin' to keep

the story straight.
