kills innocents?

In this war...

...Every kind.

You were absent at the

counsel meeting, General.

I see you are negotiating the

terms of the armistice without me.

- On the Kaiser's behalf.

- I'm on your insistence.

We could easily win this war if

only you had a little faith.

We don't.

There are shortages of food...

...meds and ammunition.

Every hour we delay costs

thousands of German lives.

One attack and the

world could be ours.

As we speak, my chemistry...

We stand against you and your...

...witch.

Ludendorff, enough!

24 hours from now...

...this war will end.

It is over.

It's over for you.

It is over for all of you..

But the mask won't help.

They don't know that.

Let's go.

Time to stage a demonstration

for the Kaiser!

You're late.

Cowboy sneak attack, chief!

How are you?

- Good to see you pal.

- Big mike.

- Good to see you.

- Oh yes!

Good to see you my friend.

Yaa beauty!

Who is this?

And I am Diana.

Where did you find her?

She found me.

- I plucked him from the sea.

- Well. It's a long story.

You don't have to talk

about that right now.

What's there?

British tea from the Germans...

...German beer for the British.

And Edgar Rice Brurroughs

novels for both.

And guns!

Well...

May we get what we want?

May we get what we need.

But may we never get

what we deserve.

Bang!

Strange thunder.

German 77's.

Guns, big ones.

It's the front out there.

- The evening hay.

- So, who do you fight for in this war?

I don't fight.

You're here for profits then?

No better place to be.

Nowhere better to be than in a

war where you don't take a side.

I have no where else.

The last war took

everything from my people.

We have nothing left.

At least here...

...I'm free.

Who took that from your people?

His people.

Don't go...

Don't go there.

Do not go!

Don't go in there.

You are safe.

You are safe.

Are you okay?

Shut up, you woman!

Stop making a fuss!

God!

He sees ghosts.

Hey, you're gonna get cold.

Oh I do...

Don't worry about Charlie.

He doesn't mean any, alright?

These animals, why are

they hurting them?

Because they need to move quick!

- Like us!

- But this is not the way.

I could help them.

There is no time.

Come on, woman!

Mama!

That man... he's wounded.

There is nothing you can

do about it, Diana.

We must keep moving.

What is this?

You wanted me to take you to war.

This is it.

Then where are the Germans?

Couple of 100 yards

across the field.

- The trench is...

- Watch out!

Chief! Oh it's good to see you.

Oi, chief's back! Chief's back!

Alright, let's move.

Help me please.

They have taken everything...

...houses, food...

...and those who

could not escape...

...they were taken

away as slaves.

Where did that happen?

In Veld... On the other

side of No Man's Land.

Diana, we have to go.

We need to help these people.

We have to stay on mission!

Next safe crossing is

at least a day away.

- What are we waiting for?

- We can not leave without helping them.

These people are dying.

Nothing to eat and

in the village...

- enslaved it there!

- I understand that.

Women and children!

We need to make our next

position by sunset.

How can you say that? What

is the matter with you?

This is No Man's Land! Diana!

Means no man can

cross it, alright?

This battalion has been

here for nearly a year...

...and they barely

gained an inch.

Alright? Because on the other side,

there are a bunch of Germans

...pointing machine guns at

every square inch of this place.

This is not something you can cross.

This is not possible.

So what? So we do nothing?

No, we are doing something.

- We are, we just...

- Steve.

We can't save

everyone in this war.

Steve...

This is not what we

came here to do.

No...

...but it's what

I'm going to do.

Diana!

What the bloody hell she's playing at?

Engage, fire!

She's taking all the fire!

Let's go!

Sniper! stay down!

Stay down! That's an order!

Come on!

She's done it!

Let's go!

Steve!

Let's go!

Come on, go!

Stay here, I'll go ahead.

- What the...

- Let's move.

We need more firepower.

Sniper!

Move!

Get in!

Charlie, bell tower.

Come on, Charlie. Shoot him.

It's okay.

Follow me.

Give me some cover.

Good!

We're gonna put this on our

back and when I say go..

- ...Lift hard!

- All right.

Diana! Shield!

Go!

Stay very very still,

for me my friends.

Please. It's so important.

Thank you very much.

This has been such an honor

for me taking you photograph.

Thank you so much.

For obvious talk of shooting...

...you cannot shoot.

Not everyone gets to be where

they want to be all the time.

Me, I'm an actor.

I love acting.

I didn't want to be a soldier.

But I'm the wrong color.

Everyone's fighting their

own battle, Diana.

Just as you're fighting yours.

Oh it's too much. I wish you...

Thank you.

Hi.. I'm on the phone...

Ah, it's "Veld", V-E-L-D.

It's a tiny village.

It may not even be on the map.

Ooh! I found it!

Did you find

Ludendorff's operation?

No. No, but I located him.

And oh, lucky you, he's

only a few miles away...

...At German High Command.

The German High Command?

And to Intel report...

...Ludendorff is

hosting a gala..

Sort of a last hara...

...before the Germans

sign the armistice.

And then the Kaiser himself

is going to be there.

As well as Dr. Maru.

Actually the Gala could

be perfect cover.

- Captain Trevor.

- Yes sir.

You're under no circumstances

to go anywhere near that...

...gala tomorrow night.

Do you hear me?

You'll be jeopardizing

everything we've worked for.

You can not compromise

the armistice.

- Sir, there will be no armistice...

- Steve!

.. once Ludendorff bombs

the entire front line.

Hold on one second, sir.

We shouldn't be bothered about

setting the peace agreement.

- Why not?

- Ares would never let...

What?

What is that?

Of course, it makes

complete sense.

Ares developed a weapon,

the worst ever devised.

- Ares? You mean Ludendorff.

- No.

I mean Ares.

Ludendorff is Ares!

Sir, this is our last chance...

...our final chance to find

out where the gas is...

...and to learn how Ludendorff

plans on delivering it.

No... No.. No. I forbid it.

Do you hear me? I forbid it.

Sir, I am losing you! Sir?

- Hello?

- Sir...

How likely is he to

respect my wishes?

Not very like convinced.

Sammy, Sammy, no, no.

Sammy, I have to work.

I gotta rustle up with a German uniform

I took to plough the course tomorrow.

That's easy, boss.

Come on.

There's nothing we can

do till tomorrow.

You said yourself, Steve.

- Thank you.

- Thank you.

You did this.

We did.

Do you have dancing on...

...Paradise Island?

Oh, dancing, yeah of course.

These people are just...

swaying.

Okay, if you're gonna be

fighting the God of war...

...I might as well teach you how

to dance, you poor thing.

Alright, probably

without the gun.

If you would...

Well...

If I'm going to the Gala, I'll

need to know how to dance.

- You aren't going to the Gala.
