White House Down Page #5
I was just on the tour!
- You had a gun!
- it's a phone, it's a phone.
- I swear. Look, I got a daughter. Please.
- Get up!
Okay.
That was close.
Sh*t.
You think you're tough, b*tch?
Keep the ground floor clear.
Package is on the move.
Eagle is 30 seconds from the vault.
We are coming in hot.
Copy that, sir.
Eagle is 30 seconds from the vault.
GO, go!
Mr. President. Glasses.
Match. We're in. Go!
Go ahead. I'll button this up.
Go ahead.
Mr. Vice President,
I apologise in advance...
...but this is gonna be the hardest takeoff
you've ever felt.
We're gonna put this bird
at 30,000 feet in 45 seconds.
James William Sawyer.
Gentlemen. What are you doing?!
Please, Martin, what are you doing?
I'm sorry, Ted.
- Martin!
- Consider this my resignation.
Emily? Where are you at, baby?
Please tell me you got out of here.
Mr. Stenz.
We're in.
I have the package.
Ground floor, through the library
and down the stairs.
- The library. We're on our way.
- We'll be waiting for you.
That's the library.
Don't go in there. Just--
Oh, this is so stupid.
You're not gonna get away with this.
Martin! What are you doing?
No, Mr. President. The question is,
what are you gonna do?
Gonna shake my hand again?
Give a little speech?
Is this about Kevin? Look, I'm sorry--
Run, Mr. President!
To me, to me, to me!
Move!
Walker.
Move, move, move!
Let's go, let's go, let's go!
- Stand behind me and do what I say.
- Walker, I say again...
...we are coming to you,
we are on the move.
In the library.
- Sh*t. I'm empty.
- Walker!
Run, run, run!
Stenz!
No, not that way! They're up there!
Goddamn!
We've lost the package.
Secure the exits.
- Which Way's this go?
- West Wing.
Run, Mr. President! Move! Move!
This leads to the basement.
- We 're in the stairwell, coming your way.
- Sh*t.
We gotta go!
Elevator's here, let's go!
Sh*t! God!
They're in the elevator heading up!
- Cut them off in the Central Hall!
- What are you doing? Get him!
Take care of Bobby.
- Killick, stop them at the elevator.
- I'm on it.
He's in the residence!
Cut him off at the residence!
Son of a b*tch!
You screwed us, Walker.
You've got one of your guys
running around.
- Not one of my guys.
- Then who is he?
I don't know, probably some schmuck
from one of the tours.
Your tourist killed one of my best men!
So now I'm gonna take care of it!
No, you will not.
You will have your boys...
...sweep every room in this place.
And you will come with me,
as planned.
Find him.
You don't talk to me like that
in front of my men.
- I don't, huh?
- No, you don't!
Ten years I've known Bobby!
Twice the guy saved my life.
This doesn't go unanswered!
Drop the tough-guy sh*t
with me, junior.
Now, I know your story, Emil.
I know what this country did to you.
We're in this together. So be calm.
- I'm calm.
- Good.
- I'm still gonna kill him.
- I don't have a problem with that.
But I need the president alive.
Don't forget that.
You promised me the leader
of the free world.
Don't you worry your pretty little head.
We'll get him back.
But without him, what kind
of time frame we looking at?
We have 15 minutes to load in,
then maybe another 3O or so...
...to crack the protocols without his code.
After that, it's on you.
- What about securing the basement?
- I brought a party favour for that.
- Good.
- Do you know...
...you've got a bit of something right...
It's right under your nose.
Vadim.
You let me know the second
you find these guys.
Copy that.
Somebody please shut the alarm off!
I got work to do.
Motts.
Take Bobby's place in Air Comm.
I'll show you the way.
We got some important people
waiting for us.
- Are you okay, sir?
- I'm all right.
- Is your family in the complex?
- They won't be here till tonight.
- Your daughter, where's your daughter?
- I couldn't find her.
I hope she got out.
Do you know these men?
That old son of a b*tch,
his name is Martin Walker.
He's the head of my Secret Service.
You should have a conversation about
how serious you take your protection.
- I didn't pick him.
- Why is he doing this?
I think it has something to do
with his son Kevin.
- Why? What happened?
- He was a Marine.
He got killed last year
in this covert action that I ordered.
Would he do this for a personal
vendetta? He said he wanted you alive.
There's gotta be a bigger play.
We gotta get out
of this elevator shaft.
I'm...
Don't tell me you're claustrophobic.
Oh, my God.
The FAA needs to ground all air traffic.
Where's the secretary
of Homeland Security?
- He's at the White House.
- Who's the deputy sec?
Wyck Halsey.
He's also at the White House.
Oh, Jesus.
--Happens,
our thoughts go to terrorism.
I've had enough of this.
Walker told us to stay where we are.
Madam Secretary, gentlemen...
...I'm gonna ask you to accompany us
to the Blue Room.
- Who is this man?
- He is...
- He's a concerned citizen.
- Good morning, Mr. Secretary.
- You killed the secretary of defence.
- Well, he wasn't doing a very good job.
Okay, so,
would the remaining secretaries...
...please join us in the Blue Room?
- Sir, I'm on with Agent Reid.
- How they doing?
VP just puked all over Air Force One.
I'm General Caulfield,
vice chairman, Joint Chiefs of Staff.
Have the nuclear launch codes
been switched?
- Yes, and new codes are active.
- The stock market's collapsing.
Travis, I need you
to suspend trading immediately.
And there's gonna be a run on the banks,
so close them now.
- You guys good?
- Yes, sir.
Don't mess it up.
Son of a...
Captain, where are we?
We have reason to believe
that the explosive was a diversion.
Diversion from what?
An armed team
has taken over the White House.
Do we have the president?
I spoke to Walker.
He had eyes on Eagle.
Fifteen minutes is a lifetime.
Radio chatter indicated they were headed
for the PEOC. No contact.
We have to assume
they've been compromised.
We gotta get you to a phone.
Call SEAL Team Six
and they come in here...
...and they'll shoot these a**holes
in the head.
- We keep a satphone in the residence.
- Great. Where's that at?
Of course it is.
- You ever been rock climbing?
- We climbing this?
Unless you got a better idea, yeah.
No, I don't.
By the way, John Cale.
- James Sawyer.
-I'll get you out of here, sir.
Just follow me up.
Yeah, I'm right behind you.
Make sure you have one handhold...
...before you let go of the other one.
- Whatever you do, I'll do.
I ain't doing that sh*t.
The scene here at the White House
is getting more chaotic every second.
We have got hundreds...
As you can see,
the military's moving into position...
...but won't advance because of
safety concerns for the hostages.
--Obvious to everyone,
this is the work of al Qaeda...
...or some like-minded
Arab terrorist group.
- The National Guard...
- The building's buttoned up.
Rooftop's secure.
- They attempted contact yet?
