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

18:32Yeah, alright.
18:33Elise!
18:47Remember, don't bet your life on luck.
18:49Frank!
18:56Today, we stand here to honor a hero.
19:00Finally get to meet your idol, huh? You nervous?
19:04Phantom Squad's best solo operator.
19:06She's everybody's hero, not just mine.

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

40:01You okay?

40:04Her?

43:32Weren't they all brought into the Phantom Squad reserves last year?
43:36Phantom Squad reservals?
43:37Working for Meridian?
43:39The plot thickens.
43:40That's Sol.
43:41Three-time back-to-back state MMA champion.
43:44Brett lost to him one.
43:45Meron's tactics are dirty as they come.
43:46Got in your head before, didn't he?
43:48You know him ever again.
43:49That woman is Luna.
43:50She and I tied at the regional marksman competition.
43:53So, Mr. Albright, still want to do this?
44:02You didn't come here to compete.
44:03You came here to start something.
44:05Take your people and get off Valor's property.
44:07Oh, yeah?
44:08And if we did, you should have taken Ms. Harlow's offer when you had the chance.
44:12Too late to back out now.
44:13Come on in, everyone.
44:14Ms. Harlow's got a story for you today.
44:15I came here to keep your father's legacy alive.
44:17Make this place actually matter.
44:18But looking at it now, it's already dying.
44:20Mr. Albright, is it true Valor refusing the challenge because your instructors can't handle it?
44:24Frank Albright died in the line of duty and you turn it into a marketing opportunity?
44:29That's a lie!
44:29Those three aren't even-
44:30Why won't Valor accept the challenge?
44:31Mr. Albright, was your father's sacrifice stage for publicity?
44:34Can you answer that?
44:34That's impressive, Harlow.
44:36Bringing in three Phantom Squad reservatives,
44:37buying off the press and smearing my father's legacy all for a piece of Valor?
44:40You really did go all out.
44:41Save the speech!
44:41You're a loser, Derek!
44:42Confess to the cameras now or wait until we embarrass you so badly
44:44you'll never show your face again.
44:46Choose your poison!
44:47They're gonna kill each other.
44:49Mr. Albright, say the word!
44:50I've been here since day one.
44:51I go up there and I finish it.
44:53They don't get to talk about this place like that.
44:55They're stronger than us!
44:56Across the board!
44:56That's exactly what they're counting on!
44:58Don't play their game!
44:59Then we walk into it!
45:00Mr. Frank was everything to me!
45:01I'm not standing here while they drag his name through the dirt!
45:03I'm in!
45:04Count me in, too!
45:05They don't get to do this!
45:06I'm in!
45:07Count me in!
45:08Let's do this!
45:09You watching this, Frank?
45:10Your people are something else.
45:12Tactically, we're outmatched, but I'm with Valor.
45:15Let's fight.
45:16You heard them, Mr. Albright.
45:17Nobody's forcing your hand here.
45:18Valor accepts.
45:19Yeah!
45:30Wonderful!
45:31Courage suits you, Mr. Albright.
45:32Let's start with MAA.
45:39Soul is a power fighter.
45:41His weakness is speed.
45:42Your only shot is to go first and go hard.
45:44Don't give him a chance to reset.
45:45Got it.
45:48What are you doing here?
45:49You're just the janitor.
45:50Go find somewhere else to be.
45:56Brett, you lost to me once and you came back for more?
46:00Don't get too comfortable, Saul.
46:02Three years is a long time.
46:03I'm not that guy anymore.
46:04Take him apart, Coach Vega!
46:05Show them what the strongest gym in the state looks like.
46:09Come on, Brett.
46:13Brett's actually pushing him back.
46:14I didn't think he could hang with Saul like this.
46:16Maybe we've got this.
46:18Something's wrong.
46:19You think those idiots actually believe Brett's winning?
46:21Saul always does this.
46:22Makes you think you're in it, then drops you.
46:24Saul, stop wasting time on this.
46:29Stop running!
46:30Come on!
46:30That's all you've got?
46:31Now shows it.
46:55Come on!
46:56Come on!
46:57Get up!
46:58Come on!
47:07Brett!
47:15What the hell?
47:17We threw in the towel!
47:18Ref!
47:19Counts when the towel hits the ground.
47:28That's one for us, Mr. Albright.
47:31Boss, I'm sorry, I...
47:32Get yourself checked out first.
47:33I'll give you one more chance.
47:35Sign the acquisition papers now,
47:36and Valor walks away with his dignity intact.
47:38Winning or losing,
47:39it doesn't change a thing.
47:40Valor's position is fixed.
47:41Position?
47:42You're in a position to talk about that right now?
47:43This place could burn to the ground,
47:45and I still wouldn't hand it to you.
47:47Then we keep going until there's nobody left at Valor
47:49willing to step up.
47:50Fine. I'll go!
47:51Grace, stop!
47:52You wanna go up there and get killed?
47:53Mr. Albright, we need to call it.
47:54We don't have a chance here.
47:55Hey, reporters, take a look!
47:56Am I wrong?
47:56Valor's nothing but indentured by the Santa Cage!
47:58I'll go up!
47:59Put me in!
48:00I'll do it!
48:03You all watched your MMA coach get carried out of that cage,
48:05and you still want in just to go down faster?
48:07A man in a wheelchair,
48:08a gym full of nobodies running on a dead man's name.
48:10You really call this a training center?
48:11That's the funniest thing I've ever seen.
48:12You getting this?
48:12Valor's done.
48:13Shut it down!
48:14Who said Valor's out of people?
