00:00:1119 years, and it's still the same sun.
00:00:4119 years ago, I was a four-star general, vice chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and
00:00:47director of the National Counter-Terrorism Center.
00:00:49This war is a mistake.
00:00:51Haven't we learned enough from our last war?
00:00:53Our troops are dying for nothing out there.
00:00:55They're so desperate that they set themselves on fire outside our embassies and constables.
00:00:59And you want me to falsify intelligence and trick Congress into authorizing another war?
00:01:06I won't do it!
00:01:08Not a chance!
00:01:11John, think it through.
00:01:15I've thought it through.
00:01:18They slapped me with treason and threw me in prison.
00:01:22Treason.
00:01:25I didn't betray this country.
00:01:26This country betrayed me!
00:01:33General, it's been 19 years.
00:01:36You've gotten old.
00:01:39A Navy Rear Admiral now.
00:01:41And still crying like you did back in the Gulf War.
00:01:50General, my son, Luke Weber, is a Marine Corps Lieutenant Colonel now.
00:01:54You gave him his name.
00:01:56He commands a battalion now.
00:01:58He looks up to you more than anyone, sir.
00:02:01Good kid.
00:02:02Made his father proud.
00:02:04Made me proud, too.
00:02:09General, this is your presidential pardon.
00:02:11And this is your formal appointment order, personally signed by the President.
00:02:16He wants you back at the Pentagon immediately as Secretary of Defense.
00:02:20Come back, General.
00:02:22The Pentagon needs you.
00:02:23The military needs you.
00:02:25This country needs you.
00:02:26General, please return to the Pentagon!
00:02:29General, please return to the Pentagon!
00:02:32General, please return to the Pentagon!
00:02:34General, please return to the Padaquan!
00:02:36General, why?
00:02:37You earned this.
00:02:38It's been 19 years.
00:02:40It's been 19 years.
00:02:40They owe you.
00:02:40This country owes you.
00:02:43Russell, I'm tired.
00:02:45I just want to go home, see my son, and live quietly for a while.
00:02:50General, please.
00:02:52Do it for the country.
00:02:57I've done enough for this country.
00:03:01Now I want to do something for my son.
00:03:09Brann, it's Dad.
00:03:11I'm out.
00:03:11You home?
00:03:12Brann's at the field hospital at Blackfire Island Base.
00:03:15He's badly wounded.
00:03:17He's not going to make it.
00:03:18They're still hurting him.
00:03:19They won't stop!
00:03:27They beat you again?
00:03:30It was not a beating, it was training.
00:03:33Training?
00:03:34Training to this?
00:03:34Do you think I am stupid?
00:03:36Lieutenant Colonel Luke Webb says a traitor's son needs twice the training.
00:03:41I don't believe my dad is a traitor.
00:03:45My mom says he's a hero.
00:03:47I believe her.
00:03:49I believe you.
00:03:56If you don't let that arm heal, you may never lift it right again.
00:03:59Wouldn't that be better?
00:04:00Then you'd have to change my bandages every day.
00:04:04Dream on.
00:04:19Look at you, son of a traitor and you still have the nerve to smile.
00:04:25This is a hospital, Lieutenant Colonel Webb.
00:04:28Don't touch me!
00:04:28You said that before too, when I had you pinned to the desk crying and begging me to stop.
00:04:34I was this close that night.
00:04:36Then you barged into the duty room, you son of a traitor.
00:04:42Fuck!
00:04:43I already had my belt undone!
00:04:46And now look at you.
00:04:48The son of a traitor actually got himself a girlfriend.
00:04:51Perfect.
00:04:52Hand her over to me.
00:04:54Maybe that'll wash some shame off your family name.
00:05:08All right, you still got some fight in you.
00:05:12Hold him down!
00:05:15Let him go!
00:05:16Let him go!
00:05:23Luke!
00:05:24Come at me!
00:05:25Don't touch her!
00:05:28You want it?
00:05:29Fine.
00:05:31Stop it!
00:05:33Don't hurt him!
00:05:34Don't worry.
00:05:36You're next.
00:05:37Don't touch her!
00:05:38Stripper!
00:05:43Your father's a traitor, and you're a useless piece of shit.
00:05:46A man like you doesn't deserve a woman.
00:05:49That's God's law.
00:05:51I'm not useless!
00:05:53And my father is not a traitor!
00:06:01Don't touch her!
00:06:06Brandon Kent, remember this moment.
00:06:08Remember what it feels like to be powerless.
00:06:12You can't protect anyone.
00:06:14Not your family.
00:06:15Not her.
00:06:17No one.
00:06:18Dad, where are you?
00:06:20Dad.
00:06:25I'm your commanding officer.
00:06:27Your entire future is in my hands.
00:06:31One word for me, and your record is ruined.
00:06:34I'll make you exactly what they called your father.
00:06:37For the rest of your life, you'll be branded as traitor.
00:06:41A coward!
00:06:44Damn.
00:06:51Got blood on my boots.
00:06:55What?
00:06:56Colonel, that's enough.
00:06:58If something happens to him...
00:06:59If something happens?
00:07:00Something happens?
00:07:02To who?
00:07:03Which one of you saw Bran get beaten?
00:07:05Sir, sir, we didn't see anything!
00:07:07Captain Harris, who's got the guts to investigate me.
00:07:11My father is Russell Webb, a Navy Rear Admiral.
00:07:16One word from him, and even the tide on Blackfire Island base turns.
00:07:20You really want to go against him?
00:07:23No, sir!
00:07:27Brandon Kent, put him on the deserter list.
00:07:30Seal his record permanently.
00:07:32No appeals.
00:07:33Ever!
00:07:38My father isn't a deserter, and neither am I.
00:07:43Once you're in that book, you're not a person anymore.
00:07:47You're a number.
00:07:47A piece of meat.
00:07:50I can call you up however I want.
00:07:58However I damn well want!
00:08:04I gave everything for this country, and this is what you did to my son.
00:08:10None of you are walking away from this!
00:08:12And then, it tests.
00:08:16No, that was the best.
00:08:30No!
00:08:32No!
00:08:35No!
00:08:36No!
00:08:37No!
00:08:38No!
00:08:38No!
00:08:39No!
00:08:41No!
00:08:47Born from a coward. Born to feed the dog.
00:08:56Coward son is still a coward. Your father was your coward. Born from a coward. Born a coward. That's all
00:09:01you'll ever be.
00:09:03Father.
00:09:16My father is no coward. You son of a bitch. You killed my dog.
00:09:32Who the hell laid a hand on my son?
00:09:39Old bastard. You got a death wish. Hands on your head. Now.
00:09:44You think you can lay a hand on me?
00:09:48When I carried that flag through the desert for this country, you were still in diapers.
00:09:56A traitorous old deserter thinks he gets to lecture us? You and your son are the same pathetic trash.
00:10:19Come on, old bastard. Let's see what's faster. You or my bullet. Take one more step if you've got the
00:10:25guts.
00:10:28Dad.
00:10:32Drop it.
00:10:37On your knees!
00:10:42Son. Dad's here. Don't be scared.
00:10:45Look at that. So touching. A real father-son moment. I could damn near cry.
00:10:52Why'd you come back, old man? Only one pathetic loser was supposed to die tonight!
00:10:56Let my son go. If anything happens to him, not even your father can save you. No one in this
00:11:02country can.
00:11:03What? Oh my God! An old deserter telling me no one can protect me?
00:11:12Did you all hear that? I'm dying here.
00:11:16Bring me the bomb!
00:11:22You want your son to live? Fine. But only one of you walks away. Choose.
00:11:34General, security just reported an unidentified armed man on Blackfire Island base.
00:11:40General Kent? What is he doing on Blackfire Island base?
00:11:45General, we confirmed it. Your son, Lieutenant Colonel Webb, has been abusing a recruit named Brandon Kent.
00:11:50The armed man appears to be Brandon's father.
00:11:52What?!
00:11:59That idiot! Does he have any idea who he's picked to fight with?
00:12:03Pass my order! Mobilize the entire Marine Division!
00:12:12General, you were right. If we don't get there soon, General Kent is done for.
00:12:15Luke has a thousand men. General Kent is alone.
00:12:17Screw that! The one who's done is my idiot's son.
00:12:20If anything happens to General Kent or his son, no one in this country can survive his wrath!
00:12:29The classic red wire, blue wire game.
00:12:32One pair of cutters, two minutes.
00:12:35Choose. Cut the wire on your girl, your dad dies.
00:12:39Cut the wire on your dad, your girl dies.
00:12:45Brandon, don't listen to him! Cut your dad's wire! He's insane!
00:12:51Shut up!
00:12:55The countdown starts now. If you don't choose, all three of you die.
00:13:03Didn't you say your dad's a hero? Then let the hero die from a future wife.
00:13:07The red one's tied to your dad. Easy choice.
00:13:10Brandon, I made peace with death a long time ago. Cut mine.
00:13:20Fuck you! I'm not choosing!
00:13:23Run!
00:13:24Run!
00:13:28Run!
00:13:36Brandon!
00:13:48He needs emergency treatment now! If we don't get him treated, he's gone!
00:13:54Move!
00:14:00Move!
00:14:03I said move!
00:14:05Not bad, old bastard.
00:14:07But can you take a hundred men? No?
00:14:10Then crawl back and kneel.
00:14:11If my son dies,
00:14:13no one on Blackfire Island Base
00:14:15and the Marine Corps of the Defense Department
00:14:17will be able to protect you.
00:14:19Not even your father.
00:14:21Ha ha ha ha!
00:14:22My father?
00:14:23Do you even know who my father is?
00:14:25Russell Webb, the Navy rear armor in command of Blackfire Island Base?
00:14:28I can do whatever the hell I want.
00:14:33What the fuck is that?
00:14:35Have you received my son?
00:14:43What the fuck was that?
00:14:46What is that?
00:15:07What the fuck?
00:15:27Dad, Dad, I'm right here.
00:15:34Dad, what the hell is this?
00:15:35Look at them.
00:15:36They've got me targeted.
00:15:38They're aiming at the wrong guy.
00:15:40Medic, where's the medic?
00:15:42His heart rate is dropping fast.
00:16:02General, he's in critical condition.
00:16:04We need to get him to the field hospital now.
00:16:15General, now that you're back, don't leave again.
00:16:21Hang on, son.
00:16:22I'm here.
00:16:23I'm not going anywhere.
00:16:25Dad, I told them you were a hero.
00:16:29I said it 10,000 times, but they still beat me.
00:16:33You protected them, so why would they do this to me?
00:16:35What?
00:16:39What?
00:16:43No!
00:16:45Uh , uh , uh .
