Agent Bottin.

Agent Savini is in the van.

All right.

Mina, come...

You'll be fine.

All right, les go.

Mister President, I was

looking for you in your office.

I'm here. These place.

Brings me peace, relaxes me.

Everything is running according

to plan. Colonel Ironside stated

that, I quote:
In the first two

days of the military maneuvres,

the Serbian Army has demonstrated

capacities and capabilities equal

to those of modern

military powers worldwide;'

Thas good.

I'm expecting a visit.

The Chief of Bureau.

Really? At this hour?

I haven't received anything

from Protocol, and-

Informal conversation.

An honest chat between

old acquaintances. I suppose

that such conversations.

Aren't bound by constraints

of time, or place...

So, first time in the field?

It shows that much, huh?

Not quite.

I read your file too.

You come highly

recommended by the Academy.

With a lap-top in my hands

I'm unstoppable.

But with a gun... we'll see.

Mina... You wanna to

know something,

I"ve been on this job

for over 20 years.

In all that time,

I"ve only had to take my

gun out of the holster

twice. Just twice.

And both of those times on

assignments with me...

I'm your jinx, Mortimer...

Dre, if you say third time's

the charm, you will have eaten

your last bowl of sarma!

Who's the prisoner?

And why are we moving him

in the dead of night?

Actually, the file

is very unclear.

Agent Reyes, you know anything

more about the prisoner?

That data is strictly

classified. Your task is

merely to get him to

London, alive and well,

and we're here to help you.

Petrovic? You've been quiet

since we started off?

Maybe I just don't like

the fact that the mission

is being run by a

green rookie!

Are we there?

We're not there...

it just choked.

Stupid YUGO!

We don't have gas, or what?

No... I don't know.

Is just dead.

What happend?

These guys left the party also...

Jan...

Finally!

How far is that station?

Can we walk there?

Jan... look...

Save me!

Jesus saves!

Run! They've gone mad!

Everyone thought I was mad...

I wasn't allowed to leave

the cell but now... Now!

We have to run.

Run!?

This is how end of days

begins, this is the

beginning of Armageddon!

Cut off the serpens head

And the body will die.

Save me! Get me out of here.

Please, take me with you.

Start the car,

start the car!

Come on!

The key.

Everybody out!

You! Stay away.

I'm not one of them.

This is a nightmare.

I shouldn't take those

mushrooms in the kitchen.

Mr. President, The Chief

of Bureau is here.

I thought that at this time

of night you'd be sleeping.

I didn't think you'd

respond to my call tonight.

Really? How could I refuse?

After all, you

are the President.

Tell me, Operation

Black Smoke? What is it?

Black Smoke is an operation

Which has been running for

decades. Twenty or so years

ago, we encountered a very

unusual phenomenon near the

industrial zone in Pancevo,

on the bones of ancient

plague victims...

What!?

It turned out that the plague

Virus develops an interesting

trait when soaked in

sufficient quantities

of ammonia and benzene. I'm not

a chemist so I cannot give you

a precise explanation...

Essentially - it brings

Dead cells to life!

Our Services had great

benefits from those chemicals.

Civil wars in Africa, the

Middle East conflicts...

we were supplying

for everyone.

Cancel the whole

thing at once!

Is too late. Two hours ago

we have lost contact with

the train that was

transporting it.

It seems there have

been an accident...

The chemical was released

into the atmosphere...

We must... we must

evacuate the city!

Certainly not.

Tomorrow morning when

the NATO exercises are over,

our special forces will

cover up the incident,

using the Chernobyl template.

And the inhabitants

of Pancevo?

Collateral damage.

Welcome to Pancevo.

Why are you closing

the window?

Because of the stench. They

don't even need a Welcome board.

When it starts to stink,

you know you're in Pancevo.

And so, on the most routine

of missions you get to pass

through the most toxic city

in all of Europe. Not quite

what you expected?

Wanna hear the funny part?

People say that in these parts-

Damn...

He's dead.

Mina, tell Savini to wait for

us at the next set of lights.

Yes, Sir!

Petrovic, contact

the local police.

Yes, Sir!

Mortimer?

Yes?

Look...

Please don't let this be -

third time's the charm.

Mina, stay in the car.

The lap top really isn't

doing me much good right now.

Watch the perimeter.

Petrovic, have you

reached the locals?

No response.

Just static.

Mina, call Savini

Tell them to get

back here right now.

Yes Sir.

You hear that?

I hear it...

Thas close enough

Agent Reyes, Savini and

Bottin aren't answering

Mina, get back in

the car, now, move it!

Morty, les go!!!

Morty! Les move! Move!

Mina?

I'm fine, I'm fine...

Les go!

Petrovic, try reaching anyone,

You understand? Anyone!

Local police, school croosing

guard, I don't give a damn who.

Find somebody!

- Yes Sir.

Agent Savini!

Agent Bottin!

Bottin!

Savini's dead, Dra.

Agent Reyes, what about

the prisoner?

The van is out of commission.

We'll have to transfer

him to our car.

I have a clear line of fire!

I've found Bottin.

Agent Reyes, are you ok?

I'm fine...

Dra! We have to

get out of here.

Right now!

Hey, we've run into some

unforeseen circumstances

and we'll have to transfer

you to another vehicle.

Don't do anything

stupid, alright?

He's heard you.

Open it!

Aim for the head.

What?

I said, aim for the heads.

He's right. He's not moving.

Alright, les go!

So you've started without me?

Get down!

Easy now, easy. We'll just get

to the car and then we move on.

Move on? Looks like the

end of the line to me.

They're all over the place.

What happened to them?

We need to move faster.

I'd love to, but these new

shoes give me a terrible blister.

Is this some sort of war?

War of the Worlds.

What should we do, Mortimer?

I think we should find a

local police station

or something. Establish

communication links and

wait for back-up.

The closest police station is

nearby, behind the park.

Petrovic, get back into the

car and start the engine!

Move! Move! Move! C'mon!

This one seems agile...

A primary victim.

Where'd he go?

Shoot him in the head.

Shut up! Shut your mouth!

I said shoot him

in the head!

Shut up!!

Want him to become like

those two we left back there?

Petrovic!

Do you hear me?

Petrovic's gone.

Petrovic!

Adios, Petrovic...

Mina, watch him!

The tire is flat.

We'll have to walk.

The Station is that way,

behind the park.

Is not far.

Mortimer, release him.

What?

Release him! Fast!

Mina.

We've hardly met, and

already so intimate.

And how about we just

lave you here?

Agent Millius!

How you feel about that?

You should have come in

a cheerleader uniform.

Mina...

Why don't you give me

a gun or something?

My aim is very good.

I'll bet.
