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

46:49Don't!
46:49Don't!

48:00Derek you okay I'm fine she helped her we have three instructors at this center when did a
48:09Jananiter become the one handling things look at her you really think someone like that could
48:14handle herself Brett would put her down in one hit don't underestimate women shadows a woman
48:19ten of me wouldn't be enough shadows in a completely different league you're gonna

51:31marksman and tactical programs in the area
51:34Ms. Harlow brought people
51:37we want a public match
51:39your instructors against ours
51:41one-on-one across all three disciplines
51:43that's it just a friendly competition
51:45yes it's just a competition
51:47but when Valor's finest get dismantled in their own backyard on camera
51:52tell me who's gonna trust you with their training ever again
51:55I know exactly what your instructors are worth Gina
51:58you think we're scared of Meridian
52:00only one way to find out
52:07are you kidding me
52:09since when are they Meridian coaches
52:12you people go digging in the gutter for this
52:15weren't they all brought into the Phantom Squad Reserves last year
52:19Phantom Squad Reservals
52:20working for Meridian
52:22the plot thickens
52:24that's soul
52:25three-time back-to-back state MMA champion
52:28Brett lost to him one
52:29and Ron's tactics are dirty as they come
52:31got in your head before didn't he

52:54take your people and get off Valor's property
52:56oh yeah

53:08make this place actually matter
53:10but looking at it now
53:11it's already dying
53:12Mr. Albright
53:13is it true Valor refusing the challenge
53:15because your instructors can't handle it?
53:17Frank Albright died in the line of duty
53:19and you turn it into a marketing opportunity?
53:22that's a lie
53:23those three aren't
53:24why won't Valor accept the challenge?
53:26Mr. Albright
53:26was your father's sacrifice staged for publicity?
53:28can you answer that?
53:29that's impressive as Harlow
53:30bringing in three phantom squad reservatives
53:32buying off the press
53:33and smearing my father's legacy
53:34all for a piece of Valor
