00:01Don't bet your life on luck.
00:02With you watching my back, I don't even need luck.
00:04Elise!
00:08I've got them.
00:10Rest easy.
00:11Are you ready to sign the damn papers?
00:13Valor is not for sale.
00:14My father built this place with what was left.
00:17Don't!
00:19Miss Harlow brought people.
00:21We want a public match.
00:23Your instructors against ours.
00:25Valor's done. Shut it down.
00:27Who said Valor's out of people?
00:30How is that possible?
00:31Who is this woman?
00:32The way she moves, doesn't she remind you of Shadow?
00:34That was just one round.
00:36The game is far from over.
00:37Next up, shooting competition.
00:39I'm not trying to be cruel, but all of you combined,
00:42you're still not beating me.
00:43And if Valor wins, what's on the table?
00:46I walk away from this place and never come back.
00:48Elise, please.
00:49I don't bet my life on luck.
00:53That's impossible.
00:55Who the hell are you?
00:56Valor's janitor.
01:24Hostages at your two o'clock.
01:25Five total, but there are seven hostiles around you.
01:27Intel was wrong.
01:28Fall back.
01:31If I leave now, the rest won't survive either.
01:34The floor has almost no cover.
01:36Seven of them can surround you in under a minute.
01:38Enough from me.
01:44Please, please don't kill me!
01:45Drop your weapon or she dies!
01:47You like guns?
01:48Then keep your eyes on it.
01:57Area secured.
01:58Come up to rescue the hospital.
02:01Damn good work, Elise.
02:02You just turned a dead end into a total win.
02:04All by yourself.
02:06That's why you're Shadow.
02:07Best field operator in Phantom Squad.
02:09But next time, don't go cowboy on me.
02:12Here we go again.
02:14Don't bet your life on luck.
02:15You say that every single time.
02:17Relax.
02:18With you watching my back, I don't even need luck.
02:20Keep that focus.
02:22We wrap this up, and that Phantom Squad citation is yours.
02:25You've earned it.
02:26Though, I think I'm done after this.
02:29Where's this coming from?
02:33The accident last year took my wife.
02:37Derek's never going to walk the way he used to.
02:40Cora's still so young.
02:41They need me home.
02:43I want to be there for them, and someone's got to run the center.
02:48They're lucky to have you.
02:49Come by the center when you're on leave.
02:51The kids have been asking about the legendary Shadow for months.
02:55Yeah, all right.
02:56Elise!
03:10Remember, don't bet your life on luck.
03:16Frank!
03:23Today, we stand here to honor a hero.
03:28Finally get to meet your idol, huh?
03:30You nervous?
03:33Phantom Squad's best solo operator.
03:35She's everybody's hero, not just mine.
03:39And I'm not leaving without that signature.
03:43For her actions in overseas counter-terror operations
03:46and her decisive role in neutralizing the June 25th hostage crisis,
03:50Shadow is hereby awarded the Phantom Squad's highest commomendation.
03:55Shadow, please forward and receive your citation.
04:14One year ago today, Phantom Squad's legendary operator Shadow declined all honors and vanished.
04:20Sources close to the unit believe her disappearance is connected to the death of her partner.
04:25I owe you, Frank.
04:30I've got them.
04:33Rest easy.
04:44Floor's a mess.
04:47You blind?
04:50That's the janitor.
04:52I've seen her staring at Mr. Alston more than once.
04:59You hiding a photo of Mr. Albright?
05:01You're the janitor.
05:02What exactly do you think you're doing mooning over him?
05:15You think you can just dodge me?
05:17Coach Foster, you have a training session.
05:19Stay out of it!
05:21What's going on here?
05:35Mr. Albright, we didn't expect you back until Friday.
05:38Schedule changed.
05:39We're early.
05:40Shouldn't you all be in training right now?
05:42On our way now.
05:47I've got this.
05:49Back to work.
06:00Which one of you is Derek?
06:02Tell him to get out here.
06:10I'm here on behalf of Meridian Group on the acquisition.
06:13Get Derek out here.
06:18Meridian Group?
06:19We're doing fine.
06:20Why would they want to acquire us?
06:22Meridian Group doesn't acquire.
06:23They colonize.
06:24If they move on you, you're done.
06:26I'm Derek.
06:27Whatever this is, take it to my office.
06:28Cora, go play for a bit.
06:32That's Meridian Group's deal.
06:34They're bad news.
06:35There was another training center, Thunderstroke, that turned them down.
06:37The owner died in a car accident a week later, and nobody looked into it.
06:41It hit the news for about a day, then just disappeared.
06:44Comments were shut down.
06:46Mr. Albright's in real trouble here.
06:48Elise, stop.
06:49These aren't people you can mess with.
06:52Elise!
06:56Derek, Ms. Harlow had sent me for an answer.
06:58Are you ready to sign the damn papers?
07:00I've been clear from the start.
07:01Valor stays with me.
07:15The office doesn't need cleaning today.
07:17Get out.
07:18I'm just doing my job, sir.
07:22Even your janitor has an attitude problem.
07:25Let me show you how Ms. Harley handles insubordinations.
07:28Consider it a courtesy.
07:31Back off.
07:32My answer is still no.
07:33Valor is not for sale.
07:39Sign it now, or don't.
07:40But when Ms. Harlow handles this herself, you won't be able to protect anyone.
07:46My father bled for this country.
07:48He built this place with what was left.
07:51I'm not letting you turn Valor into a front for your dirty laundry.
07:54Get out of my office.
07:55Now!
07:57Gave everything for his country.
08:03That just means he was stupid enough to let it happen.
08:31That move she just made.
08:39That's tactical movement.
08:41Touch.
08:43What isn't yours.
08:49You crazy beach!
08:51Keep your mouth shut before I make you!
08:55This is Valor's house.
08:58Are you leaving on your own, or do I have to make you?
09:06Fine.
09:07When Ms. Harlow gets here, don't come crying to me when this place shuts down!
09:16That was thank you.
09:17But don't do that again.
09:18It's not worth the risk.
09:21Derek.
09:22You okay?
09:23I'm fine.
09:24She helped.
09:26Her?
09:26We have three instructors at this center.
09:29When did a janitor become the one handling things?
09:32Look at her.
09:33You really think someone like that could handle herself?
09:36Brett would put her down in one hit.
09:38Don't underestimate women.
09:39Shadow's a woman.
09:40Ten of me wouldn't be enough.
09:43Shadow's in a completely different league.
09:45You're gonna compare a janitor to her?
09:49Hey, janitor.
09:50You even know who Shadow is?
09:51Ring any bells?
09:52Enough.
09:53We've got a situation.
09:55Meridian isn't going to let this go.
09:56They'll come back with something worse.
09:59My guess?
10:00She sends people to make trouble.
10:02Let them come.
10:03They show up, we put them down.
10:05Don't make it simple.
10:06Meridian group is like a snake.
10:08They don't come straighty at you.
10:10Where's Korra?
10:10Did any of you see her on your way in?
10:12No.
10:13No.
10:14Go find her.
10:14Now.
10:17Mr. Albright?
10:19This is Gina Harlow from Meridian Group.
10:22Since your staff was so physical with my associate,
10:26I thought I'd invite your sister over for a visit instead.
10:36What did you do to Korra?
10:38Breathe, Derek.
10:40She's having the time of her life.
10:41Don't take my word for it.
10:43Check your messages.
10:49What's the rush?
10:50Let us finish our cake.
10:52I'm coming to get her right now.
10:54I'll drop her off myself.
10:55And Derek, I'm bringing a little something extra for you to sign.
11:02That beach is playing with us.
11:07Where's the janitor?
11:08Where'd she go?
11:13That was my fault.
11:16I should have been watching.
11:20But I promise I will bring her back.
11:24They're here.
11:25They're here.
11:25The Meridian Group.
11:26The whole convoy.
11:42Derrick, Ms. Harlow decided you were worth a personal visit.
11:47Try to look great.
12:04Where's Korra?
12:08Are you okay?
12:09Did anyone hurt you?
12:11That lady really wanted me to eat her cake.
12:14I didn't want her cake.
12:15You're okay.
12:16Go rest.
12:17I'll come see you tonight.
12:19Stay with her.
12:21Don't be so dramatic, Mr. Albright.
12:23She's home, she's fed, and she's in one piece.
12:25Consider it a show of good faith.
12:27We all know what you want, Gina.
12:28You want to take this place, and we said no.
12:30So you put a kid in the middle of it?
12:31You're sick.
12:32We tried the velvet glove this morning.
12:33You spit on it.
12:34Now you get the fist.
12:35You should be begging us for a buyout before we pave over this dump.
12:37Brett!
12:42You're all so sensitive.
12:45I haven't even shown you the gift yet.
12:47What do you actually want?
12:49Word is Valor runs the best MMA, marksman, and tactical programs in the area.
12:56Ms. Harlow brought people.
12:58We want a public match.
13:00Your instructors against ours.
13:02One-on-one across all three disciplines.
13:04That's it?
13:05Just a friendly competition?
13:06Yes, it's just a competition.
13:08But when Valor's finest get dismantled in their own backyard, on camera, tell me, who's going to trust you with
13:15their training ever again?
13:16I know exactly what your instructors are worth, Gina.
13:19You think we're scared of Meridian?
13:21Only one way to find out.
13:28Are you kidding me?
13:30Since when are they Meridian coaches?
13:33You people go digging in the gutter for this?
13:36Weren't they all brought into the Phantom Squad Reserves last year?
13:39Phantom Squad Reservals?
13:42Working for Meridian?
13:43The plot thickens.
13:45That's Sol.
13:46Three-time back-to-back state MMA champion.
13:49Brett lost to him one.
13:50And Ron's tactics are dirty as they come.
13:52Got in your head before, didn't he?
13:54And you know him ever again.
13:55That woman is Luna.
13:57She and I tied at the regional marksman competition.
14:00So, Mr. Albright, still want to do this?
14:11You didn't come here to compete.
14:13You came here to start something.
14:15Take your people and get off Valor's property.
14:17Oh, yeah?
14:18And if we did, you should have taken Ms. Harlow's offer when you had the chance.
14:23Too late to back out now.
14:24Come on in, everyone.
14:25Ms. Harlow's got a story for you today.
14:27I came here to keep your father's legacy alive, make this place actually matter.
14:31But looking at it now, it's already dying.
14:33Mr. Albright, is it true Valor refusing the challenge because your instructors can't handle it?
14:38Frank Albright died in the line of duty and you turn it into a marketing opportunity?
14:43That's a lie.
14:44Those three aren't...
14:45Why won't Valor accept the challenge?
14:46Mr. Albright, was your father's sacrifice staged for publicity?
14:49Can you answer that?
14:50That's impressive, Harlow.
14:51Bringing in three Phantom Squad reservatives, buying off the press,
14:54and smearing my father's legacy all for a piece of Valor?
14:56You really did go all out.
14:57Save the speech.
14:58You're a loser, Derek.
15:00Confess to the cameras now or wait until we embarrass you so badly,
15:02you'll never show your face again.
15:03Choose your poison.
15:05They're going to kill each other.
15:07Mr. Albright, say the word.
15:09I've been here since day one.
15:10I go up there and I finish it.
15:12They don't get to talk about this place like that.
15:14They're stronger than us across the board.
15:16That's exactly what they're counting on.
15:18Don't play their game.
15:19Then we walk into it.
15:20Mr. Frank was everything to me.
15:22I'm not standing here while they drag his name through the dirt.
15:24I'm in.
15:25Count me in, too.
15:26They don't get to do this.
15:28I'm in.
15:29Count me in.
15:30Yeah.
15:30Let's do this.
15:31You watching this, Frank?
15:33Your people are something else.
15:35Tactically, we're outmatched, but I'm with Valor.
15:39Let's fight.
15:39You heard them, Mr. Albright.
15:41Nobody's forcing your hand here.
15:43Valor accepts.
15:44Yeah.
15:45Yeah.
15:47Yeah.
15:56Wonderful.
15:57Courage suits you, Mr. Albright.
16:00Let's start with MAA.
16:08Soul is a power fighter.
16:10His weakness is speed.
16:11Your only shot is to go first and go hard.
16:13Don't give him a chance to reset.
16:15Got it.
16:18What are you doing here?
16:19You're just the janitor.
16:20Go find somewhere else to be.
16:28Brett, you lost to me once and you came back for more?
16:33Don't get too comfortable, Soul.
16:35Three years is a long time.
16:36I'm not that guy anymore.
16:38Take him apart, Coach Vega.
16:40Show them what the strongest gym in the state looks like.
16:43Come on, Brett.
16:48Brett's actually pushing him back.
16:50I didn't think he could hang with Soul like this.
16:52Maybe we've got this.
16:54Something's wrong.
16:55You think those idiots actually believe Brett's winning?
16:58Saul always does this.
17:00Makes you think you're in it.
17:01And then drops you.
17:02Saul, stop wasting time on this.
17:08Stop running.
17:08Come on.
17:09That's all you got?
17:10Now show's over.
17:38Come on.
17:40Come on.
17:41Get up!
17:53Fred!
18:03What the hell?
18:05We threw in the towel!
18:07Ref!
18:07Counts when the towel hits the ground.
18:18That's one for us, Mr. Albright.
18:22Boss, I'm sorry, I...
18:23Get yourself checked out first.
18:24I'll give you one more chance.
18:26Sign the acquisition papers now,
18:28and Valor walks away with its dignity intact.
18:30Winning or losing, it doesn't change a thing.
18:33Valor's position is fixed.
18:35Position? You're in a position to talk about that right now?
18:37This place could burn to the ground,
18:38and I still wouldn't hand it to you.
18:41Then we keep going until there's nobody left at Valor willing to step up.
18:44Fine. I'll go.
18:46Ray, stop. You want to go up there and get killed?
18:48Mr. Albright, we need to call it. We don't have a chance here.
18:51Hey, reporters, take a look. Am I wrong?
18:52Valor's nothing but in touch. I'm about to step the cage.
18:55I'll go up. Put me in.
18:57I'll do it.
19:00You all watched your MMA coach get carried out of that cage,
19:03and you still want in just to go down fast?
19:05A man in a wheelchair, a gym full of nobodies, running on a dead man's name.
19:08You really call this a training center? That's the funniest thing I've ever seen.
19:11You getting this? Valor's done.
19:13Shut it down.
19:14Who said Valor's out of people?
19:20Don't bet your life on luck.
19:22With you watching my back, I don't even need luck.
19:24Elise!
19:28I've got them. Rest easy.
19:30Are you ready to sign the damn papers?
19:32Valor is not for sale.
19:34My father built this place with what was left.
19:45Valor's done. Shut it down.
19:47Who said Valor's out of people?
19:49How is that possible? Who is this woman?
19:52The way she moves, doesn't she remind you of Shadow?
19:54That was just one round. The game is far from over.
19:57Next up, shooting competition.
19:59I'm not trying to be cruel, but all of you combined, you're still not beating me.
20:03And if Valor wins, what's on the table?
20:05I walk away from this place and never come back.
20:08Elise, please.
20:09I don't bet my life on luck.
20:13That's impossible.
20:14Who the hell are you?
20:16Valor's janitor.
20:43Hostages at your two o'clock.
20:45Five total, but there are seven hostiles around you.
20:47Intel was wrong. Fall back.

20:54The floor has almost no cover.
20:56Seven of them can surround you in under a minute.
20:57Enough for me.
21:03Please, please don't kill me.
21:05Drop your weapon or she dies.
21:07You like guns? Then keep your eyes on it.
21:16Area secured. Come up to rescue the hospital.
21:20Damn good work, Elise.
21:21Elise, you just turned a dead end into a total win, all by yourself.
21:25That's why you're Shadow, best field operator in Phantom Squad.
21:29But next time, don't go cowboy on me.
21:32Here we go again.
21:33Don't bet your life on luck.
21:35You say that every single time.

25:54There was another training center, Thunderstroke, that turned them down.
25:57The owner died in a car accident a week later, and nobody looked into it.
26:00It hit the news for about a day, then just disappeared.
26:04Comments were shut down.
26:05Mr. Albright's in real trouble here.
26:08Elise, stop.
26:09These aren't people you can mess with.
26:11Elise!
26:15Derek, Ms. Harlod sent me for an answer.
26:18Are you ready to sign the damn papers?
26:20I've been clear from the start.
26:21Valor stays with me.
26:35The office doesn't need cleaning today.
26:37Get out.
26:38I'm just doing my job, sir.
26:41Even your janitor has an attitude problem.
26:45Let me show you how Ms. Harley handles insubordinations.
26:48Consider it a courtesy.
26:51Back off.
26:51My answer is still no.
26:53Valor is not for sale.
26:58Sign it now, or don't.
27:00But when Ms. Harlow handles this herself, you won't be able to protect anyone.
27:05My father bled for this country.
27:08He built this place with what was left.
27:10I'm not letting you turn Valor into a front for your dirty laundry.
27:13Get out of my office.
27:15Now.
27:16Gave everything for his country.
27:22That just means he was stupid enough to let it happen.
27:27Don't!
27:51That move she just made.
27:58That's tactical movement.
28:00Touch.
28:02What isn't yours.
28:09You crazy beach!
28:10Keep your mouth shut before I make you!
28:15This is Valor's house.
28:17Are you leaving on your own, or do I have to make you?
28:25Fine.
28:26When Ms. Harlow gets here, don't come crying to me when this place shuts down.
28:35That was thank you.
28:36But don't do that again.
28:37It's not worth the risk.
28:40Derek, you okay?
28:43I'm fine.
28:44She helped.
28:46Her?
28:46We have three instructors at this center.
28:48When did a janiniter become the one handling things?
28:52Look at her.
28:53You really think someone like that could handle herself?
28:55Brett would put her down in one hit.
28:57Don't underestimate women.
28:59Shadow's a woman.
29:00Ten of me wouldn't be enough.
29:02Shadow's in a completely different league.
29:04You're going to compare a janitor to her?
29:08Hey, janitor.
29:09You even know who Shadow is?
29:11Ring any bells?
29:12Enough.
29:13We've got a situation.
29:14Meridian isn't going to let this go.
29:16They'll come back with something worse.
29:19My guess?
29:19She sends people to make trouble.
29:21Let them come.
29:22They show up, we put them down.
29:24Don't make it simple.
29:26Meridian group is like a snake.
29:28They don't come straighty at you.
29:29Where's Korra?
29:30Did any of you see her on your way in?
29:32No.
29:33No.
29:34Go find her.
29:34Now!
29:37Mr. Albright?
29:38This is Gina Harlow from Meridian Group.
29:41Since your staff was so...
29:43physical with my associate,
29:45I thought I'd invite your sister over for a visit instead.
29:56What did you do to Korra?
29:58Breathe, Derek.
29:59She's having the time of her life.
30:01Don't take my word for it.
30:02Check your messages.
30:08What's the rush?
30:09Let us finish our cake.
30:11I'm coming to get her right now.
30:14I'll drop her off myself.
30:15And Derek?
30:16I'm bringing a little something extra for you to sign.
30:21That beach is playing with us.
30:27Where's the janitor?
30:28Where'd she go?
30:33That was my fault.
30:36I should have been watching.
30:39But I promise I will bring her back.
30:44They're here!
30:45The Meridian Group!
30:46The whole convoy!
31:02Derek!
31:03Ms. Harlow decided you were worth a personal visit.
31:06Try to look grateful.
31:23Where's Korra?
31:27Where's Korra?
31:28Are you okay?
31:29Did anyone hurt you?
31:30That lady really wanted me to eat her cake.
31:33I didn't want her cake.
31:35You're okay.
31:36Go rest.
31:37I'll come see you tonight.
31:38Stay with her.
31:40Don't be so dramatic, Mr. Albright.
31:42She's home, she's fed, and she's in one piece.
31:45Consider it a show of good faith.
31:46We all know what you want, Gina.
31:47You want to take this place, and we said no.
31:49So you put a kid in the middle of it?
31:51You're sick.
31:51We tried the velvet glove this morning.
31:53You spit on it.
31:53Now you get the fist.
31:54You should be begging us for a buyout before we pave over this dump.
31:57Brett!
32:01You're all so sensitive.
32:04I haven't even shown you the gift yet.
32:07What do you actually want?
32:09Word is Valor runs the best MMA, marksman, and tactical programs in the area.
32:15Ms. Harlow brought people.
32:18We want a public match.
32:19Your instructors against ours.
32:22One-on-one across all three disciplines.
32:24That's it?
32:25Just a friendly competition?
32:25Yes, it's just a competition.
32:28But when Valor's finest get dismantled in their own backyard, on camera, tell me, who's
32:34going to trust you with their training ever again?
32:36I know exactly what your instructors are worth, Gina.
32:38You think we're scared of Meridian?
32:40Only one way to find out.
32:48Are you kidding me?
32:50Since when are they Meridian coaches?
32:52You people go digging in the gutter for this?
32:55Weren't they all brought into the Phantom Squad Reserves last year?
32:59Phantom Squad Reservals?
33:01Working for Meridian?
33:03The plot thickens.
33:05That's Sol.
33:06Three-time back-to-back state MMA champion.
33:09Brett lost to him once.
33:10And Ron's tactics are dirty as they come.
33:12Got in your head before, didn't he?
33:14And you know him ever again.
33:15That woman is Luna.
33:16She and I tied at the regional marksman competition.
33:20So, Mr. Albright, still want to do this?
33:31You didn't come here to compete.
33:32You came here to start something.
33:34Take your people and get off Valor's property.
33:37Oh, yeah?
33:38And if we did, you should have taken Ms. Harlow's offer when you had the chance.
33:42Too late to back out now.
33:44Come on in, everyone.
33:45Ms. Harlow's got a story for you today.
33:47I came here to keep your father's legacy alive, make this place actually matter.
33:50But looking at it now, it's already dying.
33:53Mr. Albright, is it true Valor refusing the challenge because your instructors can't handle it?
33:58Frank Albright died in the line of duty and you turn it into a marketing opportunity?
34:03That's a lie!
34:04Those three aren't even...
34:04Why won't Valor accept the challenge?
34:06Mr. Albright, was your father's sacrifice staged for publicity?
34:09Can you answer that?
34:09That's impressive, Harlow.
34:11Bringing in three Phantom Squad reservatives, buying off the press and smearing my father's legacy all for a piece of
34:15Valor?
34:16You really did go all out.
34:17Save the speech.
34:18You're a loser, Derek.
34:19Confess to the cameras now or wait until we embarrass you so badly, you'll never show your face again.
34:23Choose your poison.
34:24They're gonna kill each other.
34:27Mr. Albright, say the word.
34:28I've been here since day one.
34:30I go up there and I finish it.
34:32They don't get to talk about this place like that.
34:34They're stronger than us, across the board.
34:36That's exactly what they're counting on.
34:37Don't play their game.
34:39Then we walk into it.
34:40Mr. Frank was everything to me.
34:41I'm not standing here while they drag his name through the dirt.
34:43I'm in!
34:45Count me in, too!
34:46They don't get to do this!
34:47I'm in!
34:48Count me in!
34:49Yeah!
34:50Let's do this!
34:51You watching this, Frank?
34:52Your people are something else.
34:55Tactically, we're outmatched, but I'm with Valor.
34:58Let's fight.
34:59You heard the Mr. Albright.
35:00Nobody's forcing your hand here.
35:02Valor accepts.
35:03Yeah!
35:15Wonderful!
35:17Courage suits you, Mr. Albright.
35:19Let's start with MAA.
35:28Sol is a power fighter.
35:29His weakness is speed.
35:31Your only shot is to go first and go hard.
35:33Don't give him a chance to reset.
35:35Got it.
35:37What are you doing here?
35:39You're just the janitor.
35:40Go find somewhere else to be.
35:48Brett, you lost to me once and you came back for more?
35:53Don't get too comfortable, Sol.
35:54Three years is a long time.
35:56I'm not that guy anymore.
35:57Take him apart, Coach Vega.
35:59Show them what the strongest gym in the state looks like.
36:03Come on, Brett.
36:07Brett's actually pushing him back.
36:09I didn't think he could hang with Sol like this.
36:12Maybe we've got this.
36:14Something's wrong.
36:15You think those idiots actually believe Brett's winning?
36:18Sol always does this.
36:19Makes you think you're in it, and then drops you.
36:22Sol, stop wasting time on this.
36:27Stop running.
36:28Come on, that's all you got?
36:29Now show's over.
36:58Come on!
36:59Come on!
37:00Get up!
