White House Down Page #11
- Such as?
- Even if I open it, my codes are useless.
They switched them out
once you took over the building.
You let me worry about that.
There's not a day that goes by that
I don't feel terrible about losing your boy.
But that's on me.
So if you want revenge,
then just shoot me.
for Kevin's death?
Sending those men in
was the most courageous thing...
...you ever did in your life.
You were a true commander in chief
for five minutes.
You just don't have the balls
to see the mission through.
What mission?
- There were no nuclear weapons in Iran.
- But there will be.
The Middle East is our last war.
It will be us or them.
I choose that Kevin Charles Walker
will be the last American soldier...
...to die in that conflict in vain.
You want that as your son's legacy?
Murdering millions of people
in his name?
Mr. President, I wish the pen
were mightier than the sword, I do.
But it's just a dream.
Stand up, sir.
History will judge who the true patriots
were here today.
I've been standing up, Martin,
and I'm not gonna open that.
Martin.
Martin, that's not necessary.
Martin!
How about now?
I can't open this for him.
If I do, millions of people are gonna die,
you understand that?
I understand.
Goddamn it!
Tyler, what the hell is going on?
We got thermal alarms going off
in the second-floor dining room...
...the West Sitting Hall,
and the president's bedroom.
Killick, he's trying to burn the place.
Second floor. Send your men.
Tyler? Turn off
the goddamn sprinklers!
Who makes this sh*t?
Oh, sh*t!
What was that?
I've been waiting all day to kill you.
German mantle clock. Empire style.
Killick, report!
Killick, what the hell is happening?
Report!
Killick can't come to the phone.
Where's my daughter?
- Dad!
- She's here with me...
...in the Oval Office, so why
don't you come down and get her?
- What are you gonna do?
- What do you think?
Why do you make
all this sh*t personal?
Oh, you're talking to me
about personal...
...when you wanna blow up
half the world for your kid!
- What are you gonna do?
- What I should've done in the beginning.
- I'm gonna kill this prick.
- Hey!
- What?
- You lied to all of us.
This was not the job.
I got business to finish. You stay here.
- How do I get to the Oval Office?
- Take the stairs to the ground floor...
...you go to the end
of the West Colonnade.
There's an air strike coming!
Get them out of here.
Go!
You heard the man!
Tour's over.
I didn't sign up for this nuclear bullshit.
I'm gonna go and I'm gonna
get the money myself.
- Hey! Hey!
- What?
You think I put my country
through this for money?
I hate mercenaries.
It's about time.
I choose the pen!
Come here. Get up. Up!
Put your hand...
Weapon system unlocked.
Enter presidential launch code.
Mr. President,
please wake up, wake up. Please!
Sir, we're at DEFCON 1.
The nuclear football
in the White House went live.
- That's impossible.
- it's happening.
Someone has entered
valid launch codes.
- Captain on deck!
- What the hell is going on?
- All 24 of our nuclear missiles went live.
- This can't be right.
Sir, we have nuclear missiles
spinning up on the Albuquerque.
If our allies see us launching a full-scale
nuclear strike, they will respond.
Russia and China will launch.
We'll have World War Ill...
...unless you level the White House.
- Four minutes to target!
I need a final go-no go
for payload delivery.
God forgive me. Go.
- Go!
- Raptor Alpha 1, Operation Free Castle...
- ...is a go.
- Copy that. Dropping to attack altitude.
Cale, Walker's trying to launch
a nuclear attack.
If he does, it'll start World War III.
- You have to stop him.
- What?
Cale? Cale?
Head to the South Lawn!
Almost there. Come on.
Come on. Come on!
Confirm:
Bandar Abbas.Chah Bahar targeted.
Confirm Chah Bahar.
- Go! Leave, leave, leave!
- No, no!
- Not without my dad!
- Go, go, go!
Your little b*tch says
you're gonna put me in jail!
Come on, Martin. This isn't you.
You protected presidents
for the past 25 years.
What are you gonna do?
All right.
Yes.
He deserved it.
You killed him!
Get back. Get over here.
Get in the room or I'll knock you out!
And do as you're told.
Go on, sit down!
I'm gonna carve my name on your chest!
No jail for you, you little b*tch!
No! No!
Get it off!
There was an enormous explosion
in the vicinity of the West Wing.
A huge ball of flames
has burst into the sky.
- It's got to be more than 100 feet...
- Raptor Alpha 1, you are clear.
Delta 2-6, copy that.
Two minutes to target.
- Clear the area.
- Get back in there!
The Department of Homeland Security...
Get in there!
This is a mandatory evacuation...
Emily.
No, please, please, baby.
Look at me. I'm right here.
Tabriz targeted. Confirm Tabriz.
Please, baby, you gotta
turn around and look at me.
Damn it.
Evacuate this area immediately!
We need you to move back, people!
- Move back now!
- Emily!
Get out of here!
There's an air strike coming!
- My daughter was in there. Emily Cale.
- She's still in there. Wait!
- Emily!
- What is with this family? Wait for me!
Confirm Tehran.
Targeting complete.
Armed for nuclear launch.
You have 15 seconds to initiate.
Fifteen, 14...
Nine, eight...

...three...
- Emily, get down!
- ...two...
- Get down!
...one.
Confirmation timed out.
Delta 2-6, one minute to target.
Go weapons hot.
- Thank God, Em.
- Daddy, I love you.
You're okay.
- I love you so much.
- The president. He shot him!
He shot him in there.
Look, I need you to listen to me.
There's an air strike coming,
I need you to run.
I need you to run as far and as fast
as you can possibly go.
Can you do that?
I gotta get the president.
- Okay.
- You gotta go for me. Now, go.
Hundreds of people seem to be
running toward the White House.
They've been told to evacuate too,
but they're climbing the fence.
Okay, we have confirmation. President
Raphelson has ordered an air strike...
...on the White House,
and I can hear the planes coming.
l-- I have to go. I'm sorry.
Delta 2-6, requesting permission
to deliver payload.
Raptor Alpha 1, you are clear.
All right, guys, let's clean it up.
Delta 2-6, we're locked on target.
Please confirm Free Castle is a go.
Raptor Alpha 1, clear.
Mission is a go.
Delta 2-6, we have friendlies
all over the kill zone.
I cannot see the planes, but what
I can see is an unbelievable sight.
Emily Cale is out on the lawn,
and she's waving the presidential flag.
No, baby. No, I told you to run!
You gotta run!
Captain, do you see this? Delta 2-6,
we have a young girl on the lawn.
I think she's trying to wave off
the air strike.
- Sir, requesting permission to abort-
-Mr. President, please.
Sir! Sir! I need an answer.
