00:00:14Please, please don't kill me.
00:00:21General, every checkpoint's covered. No way through.
00:00:25We force our way in, the hostages die.
00:00:26Unless we cut our losses.
00:00:30Not happening. We're bringing them home.
00:00:33But they're dropping one hostage every five minutes.
00:00:36We've got nothing left.
00:00:38Wait, someone just slipped inside.
00:00:44That looks like shadow.
00:01:03The police. Abort. Get out of there now.
00:01:13If I bail now, the rest of them won't make it out alive.
00:01:16Floor two is wide open. They can box you in within a minute. Move! Now!
00:01:21A minute's all I need. I can make it.
00:01:38Please, please don't kill me!
00:01:41Drop it! Drop it or she dies.
00:01:44You want it that bad?
00:01:47It's yours.
00:02:02All clear. Come get the hostages.
00:02:04Go! Go! Go!
00:02:09Damn good work, Elise.
00:02:10You just turned a dead end into a total win, all by yourself.
00:02:14That's why you're Shadow.
00:02:15Best field operator in Phantom Squad.
00:02:16But next time, don't go cowboy on me.
00:02:19Here we go again.
00:02:22Don't bet your life on luck.
00:02:24You say that every single time. Relax.
00:02:27With you watching my back, I don't even need luck.
00:02:29Keep that focus.
00:02:30We wrap this up and that Phantom Squad citation is yours.
00:02:33You've earned it.
00:02:35Though, I think I'm done after this.
00:02:39Where's this coming from?
00:02:43The accident last year took my wife.
00:02:46Derek's never gonna walk the way he used to.
00:02:48Cora's still so young.
00:02:50They need me home.
00:02:52I wanna be there for them and someone's gotta run the center.
00:02:54They're lucky to have you.
00:02:58Come by the center when you're on leave.
00:03:00The kids have been asking about the legendary Shadow for months.
00:03:03Yeah, alright. I...
00:03:09Elise!
00:03:26Remember, don't bet your life on luck.
00:03:34RANCO!
00:03:44Today, we stand here to honor a hero.
00:03:47Finally get to meet your idol, huh? You nervous?
00:03:50Phantom Squad's best solo operator.
00:03:52She's everybody's hero, not just mine.
00:03:54And I'm not leaving without that signature.
00:03:56For her actions in overseas counter-terror operation, her decisive role in neutralizing the June 25th hostage crisis.
00:04:03Shadow is hereby awarded the Phantom Squad's highest commendation.
00:04:07Shadow, please come forward and receive your citation.
00:04:21Sources close to the unit believe her disappearance is connected to the death of her partner.
00:04:34Hey!
00:04:43I owe you Frank.
00:04:47Leah, Mr. Albright totally relies on you for everything. We all see it.
00:04:51You're basically gonna be the future Mrs. Albright of Valor.
00:04:54Don't be silly.
00:04:55Mr. Albright needs to focus on recovering from his leg injury.
00:04:58His leg will eventually heal.
00:05:00That's her. The janitor, Elise.
00:05:03I've caught her staring at Mr. Albright more than once.
00:05:05Your family is safe with me. I promise.
00:05:12Floor's a mess.
00:05:14You blind?
00:05:24Give it back.
00:05:25Well, well. Got a little crush, janitor?
00:05:28Leah, you've still got training. Stay out of it.
00:05:31I won't ask again.
00:05:32Give it back.
00:05:34Oh, please.
00:05:36Let's see exactly who you've been daydreaming about.
00:05:39Let's see.
00:05:46Let's see.
00:05:49Stop.
00:06:04Mr. Albright, I thought you weren't back until the day after tomorrow.
00:06:08Things got messy at the center. Mr. Albright came back early.
00:06:13Hand it over.
00:06:18It was just a little joke, Mr. Albright. I-
00:06:21Don't you have training?
00:06:22We were just heading there.
00:06:36Give that back.
00:06:40You're Elise, right?
00:06:42Any trouble, you come find me.
00:06:43Any trouble, you come find me.
00:06:51I've got this.
00:06:58Who's Derek Albright?
00:06:59All right.
00:06:59Get him out here now!
00:07:10I'm here on behalf of Meridian Group on the acquisition.
00:07:15Get Derek out here.
00:07:21Meridian Group?
00:07:22We're doing fine.
00:07:23Why would they want to acquire us?
00:07:25Meridian Group doesn't acquire.
00:07:27Colonize.
00:07:28If they move on you, you're done.
00:07:35I'm Derek.
00:07:36Whatever this is, take it to my office.
00:07:39Korra, go play for a bit.
00:07:44What's Meridian Group's deal?
00:07:47Their bad news.
00:07:49There was another training center thunderstrike that turned them down.
00:07:53The owner died in a car accident a week later.
00:07:56And nobody looked into it.
00:07:58It hit the news for about a day and just disappeared.
00:08:02Comments were shut down.
00:08:05Mr. Albright's in real trouble here.
00:08:11Elise, stop!
00:08:12These aren't people you can mess with.
00:08:17Elise!
00:08:20Derek, Ms. Harlan sent me for an answer.
00:08:25Are you ready to sign the damn papers?
00:08:27I've been clear from the start.
00:08:29Valor stays with me.
00:08:31Mrs. Harlow is doing you a favor by even looking at Valor.
00:08:34Wipe that look off your face and start showing some gratitude.
00:08:40You don't want the company.
00:08:41You want the hero's legacy.
00:08:42You're just buying a halo to hide the blood on your hands.
00:08:46Look at you.
00:08:47You're not a total idiot after all.
00:08:50Too bad.
00:08:51When your father was alive, this place meant something.
00:08:54Now.
00:08:56You really think you can hold it together like this?
00:08:59We're done.
00:09:01Get out.
00:09:03Derek, don't push me on this!
00:09:26The office doesn't need cleaning today. Get out.
00:09:29Just doing my job, sir.
00:09:31Even your janitor has an attitude problem.
00:09:34Let me show you how Mrs. Harlow handles insubordination.
00:09:38Consider it a courtesy.
00:09:41Back off!
00:09:42My answer is still no.
00:09:43Valor is not for sale.
00:09:45And my people are none of your damn business.
00:09:47Whether you sell is up to Mrs. Harlow.
00:09:49Not you.
00:09:49You're really gonna burn bridges with us over a janitor, Mr. Albright?
00:09:53You sure about that?
00:09:54First, Valor is not for sale.
00:09:57Second, it doesn't matter who she is.
00:09:59As long as she's at Valor, I've got her back.
00:10:01Nobody touch people.
00:10:04Nobody.
00:10:06Sign it now.
00:10:08Or don't.
00:10:09But when Mrs. Harlow handles this herself, you won't be able to protect anyone.
00:10:13My father bled for this country.
00:10:15He built this place with what was left.
00:10:17I'm not letting you turn Valor into a front for your dirty laundry.
00:10:21Get out of my office!
00:10:22Now!
00:10:23Gave everything for his country.
00:10:25That just means he was stupid enough to let it happen.
00:10:37Go!
00:10:39Go!
00:10:42Go!
00:10:43Go!
00:10:45Go!
00:10:46Go!
00:10:47Go!
00:10:49Go!
00:10:51Go!
00:10:56Go!
00:10:58Go!
00:11:02That move she just made
00:11:06That's tactical movement
00:11:09Don't touch
00:11:11What isn't yours
00:11:13You crazy bitch
00:11:15Keep your mouth shut before I make you
00:11:21This is Valor's house
00:11:23Are you leaving on your own or do I have to make you?
00:11:26Fine
00:11:27When Miss Harlow gets here
00:11:28Don't come crying to me when this place shuts down
00:11:35That was
00:11:35Thank you
00:11:38But don't do that again
00:11:39It's not worth the risk
00:11:48Derek
00:11:49I heard Meridian Group showed up
00:11:52You okay?
00:11:53I'm fine
00:11:53She helped
00:11:54Her?
00:11:56We have three instructors at this center
00:11:59When did a janitor become the one handling things?
00:12:03Look at her
00:12:03You really think someone like that could handle herself?
00:12:06Brett would put her down in one hit
00:12:09Don't underestimate women
00:12:11Shadow's a woman
00:12:11Ten of me wouldn't be enough
00:12:15Shadow's in a completely different league
00:12:17You're gonna compare a janitor to her?
00:12:19Hey janitor
00:12:21You even know who Shadow is?
00:12:23You ring any bells?
00:12:24Enough
00:12:25We've got a situation
00:12:28Meridian isn't going to let this go
00:12:29They'll come back with something worse
00:12:32My guess?
00:12:33She sends people to make trouble
00:12:35Let them come
00:12:36They show up
00:12:37We put them down
00:12:38Don't make it simple
00:12:39Meridian Group is like a snake
00:12:41They don't come straight at you
00:12:44Where's Korra?
00:12:46Did any of you see her on your way in?
00:12:49Go find her
00:12:50Now!
00:12:53Mr. Albright?
00:12:55This is Gina Harlow from Meridian Group
00:12:57Since your staff was so...
00:13:00Physical with my associate
00:13:01I thought I'd invite your sister
00:13:03Over for a visit instead
00:13:09What did you do to Korra?
00:13:14Breathe, Derek
00:13:14She's having the time of her life
00:13:16Don't take my word for it
00:13:17Check your messages
00:13:33A little kid out alone?
00:13:35That's not very safe
00:13:44You have a problem with me?
00:13:46Come at me
00:13:47Let Korra go
00:13:48Relax
00:13:49I'm just keeping her company for a bit
00:13:51I'll bring your sister back myself
00:13:52And when I do
00:13:53I'll have a little gift for you
00:13:58That bitch is playing with us
00:14:00Where's the janitor?
00:14:02Where'd she go?
00:14:12That was my fault
00:14:14I should have been watching
00:14:18But I promise
00:14:20I don't care what it costs
00:14:26We're here
00:14:27The Meridian Group
00:14:29A whole convoy
00:14:31Where'd she go?
00:15:01Stop
00:15:14Derek!
00:15:17Mrs. Harlow decided you were worth a personal visit.
00:15:22Try to look grateful.
00:15:45Where's Korra?
00:15:56Are you okay?
00:16:02Did anyone hurt you?
00:16:05That lady really wanted me to eat her cake.
00:16:09I didn't want her cake.
00:16:12You're okay. Go get some rest. I'll come see you tonight.
00:16:15Stay with her.
00:16:21Don't be so dramatic, Mr. Albright.
00:16:23She's home, she's fed, and she's in one piece.
00:16:27Consider it a show of good faith.
00:16:28We all know what you want, Gina.
00:16:30Gina, you want to take this place, and we said no.
00:16:32So you put a kid in the middle of it? You're sick!
00:16:34We tried the velvet glove this morning. Now you get the fist.
00:16:38You should be begging us for a buyout before we pave over this dump.
00:16:41Brett!
00:16:52You're all so sensitive, I haven't even shown you the gift yet.
00:16:57What do you actually want?
00:16:59Word is Valor runs the best MMA, marksman, and tactical programs in the area.
00:17:05Mrs. Harlow brought people.
00:17:07We want a public match.
00:17:09Your instructors against ours, one-on-one across all three disciplines.
00:17:14That's it?
00:17:15Just a friendly competition?
00:17:17Yes, it's just a competition.
00:17:20But when Valor's finest get dismantled in their own backyard, on camera...
00:17:28Tell me, who's going to trust you with their training ever again?
00:17:34I know exactly what your instructors are worth, Gina.
00:17:37You think we're scared of Meridian?
00:17:40Only one way to find out.
00:18:01Are you kidding me?
00:18:02Them?
00:18:03Since when are they Meridian coaches?
00:18:05You people go digging in the dutter for this?
00:18:08Weren't they all brought into the Phantom Squad reserves last year?
00:18:11Phantom Squad reservals working for Meridian?
00:18:15That's Sol.
00:18:16Three-time back-to-back state MMA champion.
00:18:19Brett lost to him once.
00:18:26And Ron's tactics are dirty as they come.
00:18:29Got in your head before, didn't he?
00:18:39That woman is Luna.
00:18:41She and I tied at the regional marksman competition.
00:18:50So, Mr. Albright, still want to do this?
00:19:01You didn't come here to compete.
00:19:02You came here to start something.
00:19:04Take your people and get off Valor's property.
00:19:06Oh, yeah?
00:19:07And if we did,
00:19:10you should have taken Miss Harlow's offer when you had the chance.
00:19:13Too late to back out now.
00:19:17Come on in, everyone.
00:19:18Miss Harlow's got a story for you today.
00:19:22What's the matter?
00:19:23You scared?
00:19:23Then say it.
00:19:25Say it right here in front of all of them.
00:19:28Mr. Albright, this is a setup.
00:19:32I came here to keep your father's legacy alive.
00:19:35Make this place actually matter.
00:19:37But looking at it now, it's already dying.
00:19:41Just a matter of time.
00:19:42Look at this, everyone.
00:19:44Valor Training Center won't even step up for a fair fight.
00:19:47You want to know why?
00:19:48They've been hiding behind a dead man's name like it's a shield.
00:19:51That's not honor.
00:19:53That's a con.
00:19:54Mr. Albright, is it true Valor is refusing the challenge
00:19:57because your instructors can't handle it?
00:19:59Frank Albright died in the line of duty,
00:20:01and you turn it into a marketing opportunity?
00:20:03Yeah!
00:20:10That's a lie.
00:20:11Those three aren't even...
00:20:12Mr. Albright, why won't Valor accept the challenge?
00:20:14Mr. Albright, was your father's sacrifice staged for publicity?
00:20:16Can you answer that?
00:20:19Shut the fuck up!
00:20:21You're a fucking liar!
00:20:23Screw you!
00:20:30That's impressive, Miss Harlow.
00:20:33Bringing in three Phantom Squad reservives,
00:20:35buying off the press,
00:20:36and smearing my father's legacy,
00:20:38all for a piece of Valor?
00:20:39You really did go all out.
00:20:42Save the speech.
00:20:44You're a loser, Derek.
00:20:46Confess to the cameras now,
00:20:48or wait until we embarrass you so badly
00:20:50you'll never show your face again.
00:20:52Choose your poison.
00:20:54No guts, no glory!
00:20:56Valor's just a storm!
00:20:57Mr. Albright, say the word.
00:20:59I've been here since day one.
00:21:00I go up there, and I finish it.
00:21:03They don't get to talk about this place like that.
00:21:05They're stronger than us.
00:21:06Across the board.
00:21:07That's exactly what they're counting on.
00:21:09Don't play their game.
00:21:11Then we walk into it!
00:21:13Mr. Frank was everything to me!
00:21:15I'm not standing here
00:21:16while they drag his name through the dirt!
00:21:18I'm in!
00:21:19Count me in, too!
00:21:20They don't get to do this!
00:21:23I'm in!
00:21:24For free!
00:21:26Me, too!
00:21:29You watching this, Frank?
00:21:32Your people are something else.
00:21:36Tactically, we're outmatched.
00:21:38But...
00:21:39I'm with Valor.
00:21:40Let's fight.
00:21:42You heard them, Mr. Albright.
00:21:44Nobody's forcing your hand here.
00:21:54Valor...
00:21:55accepts.
00:21:56You heard them, Mr. Albright.
00:21:56Yeah!
00:22:04Wonderful.
00:22:05Courage suits you, Mr. Albright.
00:22:07Let's start with MMA.
00:22:09Let's start with MMA.
00:22:11Let's start with MMA.
00:22:12Let's start with MMA.
00:22:23Let's start with MMA.
00:22:30Let's start with MMA.
00:22:30Saul is a power fighter.
00:22:31His weakness is speed.
00:22:32His weakness is speed.
00:22:33Your only shot is to go first and go hard.
00:22:36Don't give him a chance to reset.
00:22:39Got it.
00:22:44What are you doing here?
00:22:45You're just the janitor.
00:22:46Go find somewhere else to be.
00:22:56Brett.
00:22:57You lost to me once and you came back for more?
00:23:00Don't get too comfortable, Saul.
00:23:02Three years is a long time.
00:23:03I'm not that guy anymore.
00:23:05Take him apart, Coach Vega!
00:23:07Show them what the strongest gym in the state looks like!
00:23:12Come on, Brett.
00:23:27Brett's actually pushing him back.
00:23:29I didn't think he could hang with Saul like this.
00:23:31Maybe we've got this!
00:23:34Something's wrong.
00:23:37You think those idiots actually believe Brett's winning?
00:23:53Saul always does this.
00:23:55Makes you think you're in it, then drops you.
00:23:58Saul, stop wasting time on this.
00:24:02Stop running!
00:24:03Come on, that's all you got?
00:24:06I was watching.
00:24:09Seeing how much you've grown in three years.
00:24:15Now, show's over.
00:24:52Brett!
00:25:01Brett!
00:25:02Brett!
00:25:05What the hell we threw in the towel?
00:25:07Ref!
00:25:08Ah!
00:25:10Counts when the towel hits the ground.
00:25:21Ha ha ha ha ha!
00:25:30That's one for us, Mr. Albright.
00:25:32Boss!
00:25:32I'm sorry!
00:25:34Get yourself checked out first.
00:25:36I'll give you one more chance.
00:25:38Sign the acquisition papers now and Valor walks away with its dignity intact.
00:25:42Winning or losing, it doesn't change a thing.
00:25:44Valor's position is fixed.
00:25:46Position? You're in a position to talk about that right now?
00:25:48This place could burn to the ground, and I still wouldn't hand it to you.
00:25:56Then we keep going until there's nobody left at Valor willing to step up.
00:26:05Fine, I'll go!
00:26:06Ray, stop!
00:26:07You want to go up there and get killed?
00:26:10Mr. Albright, we need to call it.
00:26:12We don't have a chance here.
00:26:15Ha ha ha!
00:26:16You heard it, everyone?
00:26:16Their own coach wants in.
00:26:18I told you Valor is a hollow shell.
00:26:20There's nothing holding this place up.
00:26:21Let me in there!
00:26:22I'll do it!
00:26:23Let me in there!
00:26:25I'll do it!
00:26:26Let your MMA coach get carried out of that cage.
00:26:29And you still want in?
00:26:30Ha ha!
00:26:31Just to go down faster?
00:26:34Gentlemen.
00:26:35A man in a wheelchair.
00:26:37A gym full of nobodies.
00:26:38Running on a dead man's name.
00:26:40Ha ha ha!
00:26:41You really call this a training center?
00:26:43That's the funniest thing I've ever seen.
00:26:44You getting this?
00:26:45Valor's done!
00:26:46Shut it down!
00:26:48You absolute bastards!
00:26:51My turn.
00:26:56Who said Valor's out of people?
00:27:07Elise!
00:27:08Get down!
00:27:08This isn't safe!
00:27:09Ray at least has a title.
00:27:11Now you're sending in the janitor?
00:27:13Valor's really scraping the bar.
00:27:15A woman?
00:27:16You think you belong up there?
00:27:18There are women who could take soul.
00:27:19Like that Phantom Squad legend, Shadow.
00:27:22Shadow disappeared a year ago.
00:27:24Her?
00:27:24She mops floors.
00:27:29Get down.
00:27:30Now!
00:27:31Who do you think you are?
00:27:33Shadow?
00:27:44Let her try.
00:27:46You're putting Valor's reputation on a janitor?
00:27:49I'm with Leah on this.
00:27:51That cage isn't a joke.
00:27:53She could get hurt up there.
00:27:55She could get killed!
00:27:57There are reporters here.
00:27:59Elise has never even hit a heavy bag.
00:28:01You've lost your mind.
00:28:02Then who's going?
00:28:09Go ahead.
00:28:11Win or lose.
00:28:13I'm grateful either way.
00:28:16Fine.
00:28:18Whatever happens,
00:28:19that's on you.
00:28:20We're not losing this.
00:28:26Wrong place, sweetheart.
00:28:32Saul, put her down.
00:28:34Saul, put her down.
00:28:52You're gonna regret this, janitor.
00:29:06She wanted to be up there.
00:29:08Nobody's stopping what comes next.
00:29:11Shut up!
00:29:12She's fighting for Valor.
00:29:28Is she...
00:29:30paying back?
00:29:35Whoa!
00:29:37Yes!
00:29:45That technique...
00:29:54That's not possible.
00:29:56He's playing with her.
00:29:59Stop fooling around!
00:30:01Focus!
00:30:03I underestimated you.
00:30:06Let's go again.
00:30:10Warm up is over.
00:30:32Saul, he's actually locked down.
00:30:34How is that possible?
00:30:36He's a three-time state champion.
00:30:38Who is this woman?
00:30:39The way she moves.
00:30:40Doesn't she remind you of Shadow?
00:30:43You're done.
00:30:48I...
00:30:48tap.
00:30:54Mr. Albright.
00:30:55Am I hallucinating?
00:31:02Say it louder.
00:31:04The ref can't hear you.
00:31:06Saul!
00:31:07What are you doing?
00:31:11He doesn't tap.
00:31:15He doesn't tap.
00:31:16He never agreed to die for you.
00:31:29He never agreed to die for you.
00:31:31Blow the whistle now!
00:31:50What do you think you're doing?
00:31:57Counts when the towel hits the ground.
00:31:58Did I just watch a janitor beat a three-time MMA champion in the game?
00:32:08You don't think she's actually Shadow?
00:32:13Not a chance.
00:32:16Shadow is Phantom Squad's top operator.
00:32:19If she were actually Shadow, why would she be mopping floors?
00:32:23Sol got careless.
00:32:24Sol got careless.
00:32:25That's all.
00:32:25Unbelievable!
00:32:27A janitor at Valor Training Center just took down the reigning MMA champion!
00:32:38Any word on Shadow?
00:32:40Nothing.
00:32:42She's...
00:32:42really good at not being found.
00:32:44Then why are you still standing here?
00:32:45You think I'm gonna pick up my phone and stumble across her?
00:32:54That's her.
00:33:00Valor Training Center.
00:33:01Valor Training Center.
00:33:01Get a helicopter ready.
00:33:03You leave immediately.
00:33:16Who are you?
00:33:18Valor Training Center's janitor.
00:33:20You!
00:33:25Anyone else wanna come up?
00:33:29Useless!
00:33:30Every single one of you!
00:33:34I think you have a result to call.
00:33:37Right.
00:33:38This match goes to Valor Training Center.
00:33:39Meridian concedes!
00:33:45Elise, how are you this good?
00:33:47Why didn't you say anything?
00:33:48Seriously, if you can fight like that,
00:33:50what are you doing with a mob?
00:34:03You okay?
00:34:04I'm fine.
00:34:10Why'd you do it?
00:34:11You said Valor doesn't go down.
00:34:14I agreed.
00:34:15And if I need...
00:34:28a mintisz movie from the campsite shop.
00:34:29I'll give you a chance to get ahead of them.
00:34:34I'll give you a感じ of my hand.
00:34:35You said Valor.
00:34:36I'm fine.
00:34:36You said Valor!
00:34:37You're right away.
00:34:37You were right.
00:34:37You're right.
00:34:38You were right.
00:34:41Don't get ahead of yourselves.
00:34:45That was just one round.
00:34:47The game is far from over.
00:34:55Three stages.
00:34:57I'll let you have the MMA point.
00:34:59Consider it a courtesy.
00:35:02Next up is shooting competition.
00:35:04Please proceed to the range.
00:35:06I don't leave empty-handed.
00:35:09Mr. Albright.
00:35:10There's a first time for everything, Mrs. Harlow.
00:35:17You're not seriously counting on your janitor
00:35:19to pull off another miracle at the range, are you?
00:35:23See you at the range, Mr. Albright.
00:35:51Looks like somebody's been replaced.
00:35:56What's that supposed to mean?
00:35:57You're Valor's shooting instructor.
00:36:00At least you were.
00:36:18For what it's worth, Meridian could use someone with your skill set, Coach Foster.
00:36:24I'm taking this round back.
00:36:27Count on it.
00:36:29If you say so.
00:36:31The shooting round goes to Coach Foster.
00:36:38He only remembers you when he needs you.
00:36:41And you're still smiling.
00:36:44Interesting.
00:36:44Interesting.
00:36:53I'll go up.
00:36:54But I have a condition.
00:36:56What condition?
00:36:59After this round, I take full control of Valor's shooting program.
00:37:03Roster.
00:37:04Training.
00:37:05Representation.
00:37:06All of it.
00:37:07Mine.
00:37:09Coach Foster, this isn't the time!
00:37:11Shooting is my discipline.
00:37:13If Valor wins this, it's because of me.
00:37:16No one else.
00:37:24No one else.
00:37:26Valor belongs to everyone here.
00:37:28No one person calls the shots.
00:37:31What you're asking for isn't about winning.
00:37:34It's about control.
00:37:40Let's be honest.
00:37:41Coach Foster is your best shot at taking this round.
00:37:44Seems fair she sets the terms.
00:37:52If Valor doesn't rewrite its rules for anyone.
00:37:54Valor doesn't rewrite its rules for anyone.
00:38:05Meridian got room for one more?
00:38:08We'd love to have you.
00:38:18I'm out.
00:38:25Effective right now.
00:38:27I'm done with Valor.
00:38:32Without Coach Foster, we're done!
00:38:34What the hell are you doing?
00:38:37You're walking out on us right now?
00:38:40You're really gonna turn your back on us, Leah?
00:38:43Frank saved your life!
00:38:44You wouldn't even be here without him!
00:38:47This isn't betrayal.
00:38:51It's a choice.
00:38:56As you're told of Fearless.
00:38:58Leah, you sure about this?
00:39:00I've carried Valor's shooting program on my own for years.
00:39:04Whatever debt I owed, we're done here.
00:39:07You've made the right call.
00:39:09Mr. Albright, your best shooter is standing on my side now.
00:39:12I'll be generous.
00:39:13Concede now and we can all go home.
00:39:18Lee is gone, so what?
00:39:20We're still here.
00:39:22Nobody's conceding a damn thing.
00:39:23Not today!
00:39:26I'm not trying to be cruel.
00:39:27But all of you combined, you're still not beating me.
00:39:31Not even close.
00:39:36Said, then you're up.
00:39:37Show me you can win, and money, power, prestige, consider them yours.
00:39:40Just say the word.
00:39:42Deal.
00:39:43You know how this goes.
00:39:45You cross Meridian, you lose.
00:39:48Simple as that.
00:39:50So, Mr. Albright, who are you putting up?
00:40:01Elise, you've got something, right?
00:40:05You always have something.
00:40:15Elise, don't tell me you shoot, too.
00:40:21Leah's a pro, Ray.
00:40:22This isn't something you just pick up.
00:40:25Especially trap shooting.
00:40:27She hasn't lost a round in three years.
00:40:31In a fist fight is one thing.
00:40:33But I bet you can't even seat a magazine.
00:40:36Does anyone want to step up?
00:40:39Leah trained all of us.
00:40:41We're nowhere near her level.
00:40:43She's right.
00:40:44Leah was closing in on fan squad reserve standards.
00:40:46That's elite tier.
00:40:49Can't even field a competitor?
00:40:52Just call it, Mr. Albright.
00:40:54Concede.
00:40:58This round, Valor, concedes.
00:41:00Hold on!
00:41:09The janitor?
00:41:10Again?
00:41:11You've got to be kidding me!
00:41:12Don't embarrass yourself, Elise.
00:41:14I'm not solved.
00:41:16I won't hand you an opening.
00:41:17Only one way to find out.
00:41:19Elise, look.
00:41:20MMA and precision shooting,
00:41:22they don't cross over.
00:41:23Walking away from this isn't losing.
00:41:25It's common sense.
00:41:26Shooting isn't about strength.
00:41:27You need to be at shadow's level.
00:41:28Every discipline trained to the edge
00:41:29or this doesn't work.
00:41:30And that's...
00:41:32Fine.
00:41:33You want to shoot, shoot.
00:41:34But let's make it worth everyone's time.
00:41:36What kind of stakes?
00:41:37One round.
00:41:39The winner takes all.
00:41:43You lose,
00:41:45Valor gets a new owner.
00:41:55Elise, you've already done enough.
00:41:57And if Valor wins,
00:41:59what's on the table?
00:42:01I walk away from this place
00:42:03and never come back.
00:42:06Elise, please.
00:42:07You don't owe us this.
00:42:08What happened to all that confidence?
00:42:09Getting cold teeth?
00:42:12Fine.
00:42:13When I win,
00:42:14you apologize.
00:42:15On camera,
00:42:16in front of every reporter here.
00:42:17And you give your word in public
00:42:18that Meridian never comes near Valor again.
00:42:25Agreed.
00:42:26Let's get started.
00:42:31Elise, you don't have to...
00:42:33I don't bet my life on luck.
00:42:39Take a day off in here
00:42:41and you might not get one out there.
00:42:47On your feet.
00:42:48Keep going.
00:42:49Remember this.
00:42:51Whatever happens out there,
00:42:53don't bet your life on luck.
00:42:58I trust you.
00:43:09Trap shooting.
00:43:1020 clay targets scored by hits.
00:43:12Tie goes to time.
00:43:14Shooters, take your positions.
00:43:18I'll take the rifle.
00:43:19You can have the shotgun.
00:43:21Bigger spread, easier takedowns.
00:43:23I'm feeling generous.
00:43:25Arrogant.
00:43:26Take the shotgun, Elise.
00:43:28Don't play games with this.
00:43:31Wait, is that...
00:43:32She's going with a pistol?
00:43:36Has she lost her mind?
00:43:37A pistol for trap shooting?
00:43:39That's a 12-round mag.
00:43:40She's got 20 targets.
00:43:41Even if she hits everything,
00:43:42she'll have to reload mid-round.
00:43:43Leah won't.
00:43:44On time alone, we lose.
00:43:46Yeah.
00:43:46This one's a loss.
00:43:48Don't even know if the center survives this.
00:43:50Is this you giving up, janitor?
00:43:52The pistol's enough for you.
00:43:55Elise, listen to me.
00:43:56This isn't about difficulty.
00:43:57A handgun against clay targets at range
00:43:59isn't winnable.
00:44:00Period.
00:44:05Derek, is she handing us this round as a gift?
00:44:09That's generous.
00:44:13Whenever you're ready.
00:44:17Don't blink.
00:44:18You might miss the only lesson you'll ever get.
00:44:27Shooters ready.
00:44:38Shooters ready.
00:44:40Begin.
00:44:59That's what Elite looks like.
00:45:01Top of the field.
00:45:02Right there.
00:45:04That level,
00:45:05that holds up even by Meridian standards.
00:45:24Perfect score.
00:45:2520 for 20.
00:45:26Time,
00:45:2720 seconds.
00:45:32Your turn, janitor.
00:45:34What have you got for the cameras?
00:45:36Even luck's not on your side today,
00:45:38Mr. Albright.
00:45:42She hit 20 with 19 pounds.
00:45:44She left that last bullet on the table on purpose.
00:45:46She's not just trying to win.
00:45:48She's trying to humiliate her.
00:46:00A souvenir.
00:46:02Maybe you'll learn something.
00:46:07She's impressive, isn't she?
00:46:09You had a real eye for talent, Mr. Albright.
00:46:12Had.
00:46:13Elise can fight.
00:46:14But shooting isn't about muscle.
00:46:16It's about steadiness, judgment, experience built over years.
00:46:19And she's still holding that damn pistol.
00:46:21Mr. Albright, I'm not done.
00:46:24Put me up.
00:46:25At least we lose with some dignity.
00:46:27Make the call.
00:46:27Now.
00:46:30You guys still holding out for a miracle?
00:46:33She's got a handgun and 20 clay targets.
00:46:36Do the math.
00:46:38What are you all waiting for?
00:46:40The second she picked up that pistol, she was already out of this.
00:46:43Next shooter.
00:46:43Valor Training Center.
00:46:45Elise.
00:46:53Eleven?
00:46:54What does that mean?
00:47:02She has lost her mind!
00:47:05Blindfolded?
00:47:05That's not skill.
00:47:06That's a circus act.
00:47:07Who does she think she is?
00:47:08Shadow?
00:47:09Take a good look at your training center, Mr. Albright.
00:47:11Under new management soon.
00:47:28Jeez.
00:47:47That's impossible!
00:47:54That's impossible!
00:47:57Shadow.
00:47:57Nobody else in the world shoots like that.
00:48:0820 for 20!
00:48:1018 seconds!
00:48:1211 rounds!
00:48:31You!
00:48:36You!
00:48:37You!
00:48:37You!
00:48:37You!
00:48:39You!
00:48:40She kept a round two. One bullet left over. Same as Leah.
00:48:43The eleven. That's what she carved into the table.
00:48:47She knew exactly how many rounds she'd need.
00:48:49She called it. Down to the round. And she did it blind.
00:48:53Pure sound. Racking clay targets by ear alone. With a pistol.
00:48:59Do you people understand how impossible that is?
00:49:04Shooting competition. Valor Training Center wins.
00:49:12Thank you, Elise. For everything.
00:49:16I was wrong, Elise. I doubted you. I talked down to you.
00:49:20I'm sorry.
00:49:28That's...how did she...impossible.
00:49:34You couldn't beat a janitor, Leah! A janitor!
00:49:37You're up. Next heat. Now.
00:49:40Luna?
00:49:41I can't do what she just did.
00:49:43Twenty clays, eleven rounds, blindfolded with a pistol. That's not a skill level anymore. That's not even humanly possible.
00:49:49So I'm paying all of you and not one of you can beat the cleaning staff?
00:49:53Mrs. Harlow.
00:49:54Get out of my sight!
00:49:56Get out of my sight! All of you! Now!
00:50:02You heard me. Get lost.
00:50:07The match is over. You lost. Are you gonna honor the deal or do we do this the hard way?
00:50:12Who the hell are you? Valor's janitor.
00:50:15A janitor who takes down a three-time MMA champion? A janitor who shoots twenty clays blind with eleven rounds?
00:50:21You really expect me to buy that?
00:50:25Clear the area.
00:50:27Camera's off! Everyone out! Now!
00:50:32You caught my attention.
00:50:40Gina! You gave your word!
00:50:43Everyone here is mine. I could make Valor disappear today starting with her.
00:50:47You rigged the game, you lost, and now you're just gonna burn the house down? You're a coward!
00:50:51What are you gonna do about it? You have one Elise. I can make her gone in five minutes.
00:51:05Nobody moves!
00:51:11That's Captain Cross from Phantom Squad.
00:51:16Weapons down! Now!
00:51:43Captain Cross? It's been a while.
00:51:46Just a little misunderstanding. We were working out a business arrangement.
00:51:51That's not what a business arrangement looks like.
00:51:54I think you misread the situation.
00:51:57If it's a misunderstanding, then the agreement stands.
00:52:04You lost.
00:52:06Now make the announcement. Publicly.
00:52:10You're done with Valor.
00:52:12And the apology.
00:52:14The apology.
00:52:30My mistake, Mr. Albright.
00:52:32My sincere apologies. Valor won't be hearing from us again.
00:52:38We're done here.
00:52:47We won! We actually won!
00:52:51Come on!
00:53:21Captain Cross, thank you for showing up.
00:53:23What brought you out here?
00:53:25We're here on a Phantom Squad bereavement visit.
00:53:28The Albright family.
00:53:31And I wanted to see the janitor who just knocked out an MMA champion.
00:53:37Elise?
00:53:41Where did she go?
00:54:19Easy.
00:54:20Easy.
00:54:23It's me.
00:54:31Are those for PTSD?
00:54:36ELYSIA!
00:54:45I don't know you.
00:54:47Please leave.
00:54:49Doesn't matter if you know me.
00:54:52I know you.
00:54:55Shadow.
00:55:05Phantom Squad's greatest field commander.
00:55:08Broke every national combat record when she first came up.
00:55:11Nobody's even come close to those numbers.
00:55:13A year ago, she dismantled a seven-man perimeter alone and was awarded the highest commendation in the unit's history.
00:55:19Then on the day of the ceremony, she was gone.
00:55:21Nobody knew where she went.
00:55:23I've been looking for a long time.
00:55:24There's an operation.
00:55:26There's an operation.
00:55:27Cross-border human trafficking network.
00:55:28Major scale.
00:55:32General Crane says Phantom Squad can't pull it off without Shadow.
00:55:35Shadow, General Crane needs you.
00:55:38The unit needs you.
00:55:42Shadow's dead.
00:55:45Shadow was everything I signed up to be.
00:55:47She was the gold standard.
00:55:50Watching you mop floors and refuse to even say her name.
00:55:54It's a hard pill to swallow.
00:55:56That's not my problem.
00:55:58This operation is connected to the truth behind Frank's death.
00:56:03You really don't want the truth?
00:56:08Come back with me.
00:56:11I'm not gonna push you.
00:56:13When you're ready, if you're ever ready, we'll be there.
00:56:23Why was he in there?
00:56:26What would he want with Elise?
00:56:44Are you hurt, Elise?
00:56:45Old habit. Nothing new.
00:56:47Elise, do you need a doctor?
00:56:50I'm fine.
00:56:53I need to rest.
00:56:55Good night.
00:57:26You always told me a soldier doesn't fight just to make it back alive.
00:57:32But, Dad...
00:57:34You were supposed to be a father first.
00:57:37I've spent the last year going through everything.
00:57:41Someone leaked the route before that operation.
00:57:47It wasn't an accident.
00:57:49Someone set it up.
00:57:52Someone wanted you both dead.
00:58:01Whoever did it is still out there.
00:58:04Walking around.
00:58:05Living a life.
00:58:06They probably haven't missed a single night of sleep.
00:58:13And I can't even stand up.
00:58:18If it wasn't for that person, Dad, would you still be here?
00:58:33I don't care what it takes.
00:58:35I will find out who did it.
00:58:38And whoever did this...
00:58:40They will pay in blood.
00:58:46I'm sorry.
00:58:53Derek, I need to talk to you!
00:58:55Little late for that.
00:58:57I know I was impulsive.
00:58:59But, Derek, you know how I feel about you.
00:59:01I couldn't just stand there and watch you give more attention to a cleaning lady than to me.
00:59:06Don't call her that again.
00:59:09Elise is part of Valor.
00:59:10And you're the one who chose to leave.
00:59:12If you'll take me back.
00:59:14I'll cut ties with Meridian.
00:59:15I'll come back-
00:59:16Valor doesn't take back people who walk out when it counts.
00:59:19And it doesn't take back people who treat their teammates like bargaining chips.
00:59:25Show yourself out, Leah.
00:59:32Don't come crying to me when Meridian comes back around.
00:59:36And they will.
00:59:46I still can't get over it.
00:59:47Our janitor.
00:59:48For the first two weeks, I honestly thought she was a mute.
00:59:50She's not the janitor, Ray.
00:59:52She's the reason we still have a training center.
00:59:54Fair point.
00:59:55But seriously, if she can do all that, why is she here mopping floors?
00:59:58You know something, don't you?
01:00:01Everyone gets to make their own choices.
01:00:03Fair enough.
01:00:04But Meridian isn't done with us.
01:00:06Gina doesn't lose and walk away clean.
01:00:09We'll deal with it when it comes.
01:00:18Reporting in.
01:00:21Mission complete.
01:00:24Your kids are okay.
01:00:26The center's still standing.
01:00:29I don't know how much longer I can stay.
01:00:33If it wasn't for that person, Dad, would you still be here?
01:00:55She won't come back?
01:00:59I'll go to Breithhoven myself.
01:01:12That bullet was meant for me.
01:01:16You knew it.
01:01:18So did I.
01:01:19The end of the day.
01:01:19Elise!
01:01:31If I'd caught it a second sooner.
01:01:33If it wasn't for that person.
01:01:35Dad, would you still be here?
01:01:36If it wasn't for me, you'd still be at that table.
01:01:39You'd have seen him walk again.
01:01:42So I can't leave.
01:01:45But I can't stay either.
01:01:47I wait until he's on his feet.
01:01:49Until they don't need me anymore.
01:01:53Then I go.
01:01:55And I get you an answer.
01:01:58Does that count as paying it back?
01:02:15Every thread we pull leads back to Meridian Group.
01:02:18Whatever they're running, it has international arm backing.
01:02:20No wonder they're so overpairing.
01:02:23We need hard evidence.
01:02:25Something that holds.
01:02:27Most of the operational records have been sealed by military command.
01:02:30The only way around that is...
01:02:35If Valor establishes a formal talent pipeline with Phantom Squad,
01:02:39we get access to military cooperation channels.
01:02:43That opens doors.
01:02:57A partnership with Phantom Squad?
01:03:04Ray, sit down.
01:03:08Elise, come join us.
01:03:10Someone else can handle that.
01:03:12It's my job, Mr. Albright.
01:03:13All right.
01:03:25Elise, go sit down.
01:03:27We've got this.
01:03:29Yeah.
01:03:30We handle the mops.
01:03:32But you're the commander in the keef.
01:03:43Actually, Elise.
01:03:44Someone that good.
01:03:46Were you Phantom Squad?
01:03:51Let's stay on track.
01:03:52A Phantom Squad partnership is perfect.
01:03:55Meridian won't touch us if we have that kind of backing.
01:04:00The talent selection trials are in a month.
01:04:03That's our window.
01:04:06Mr. Albright, if things were different, we'd be a lock.
01:04:09But right now, I'm not sure we can even get an invitation.
01:04:13Could Nathan pull some strings?
01:04:15General Crane runs the selection trials.
01:04:18Nathan simply doesn't have the authority to interfere.
01:04:21So we're stuck.
01:04:24We don't give up on this.
01:04:27The partnership protects valor.
01:04:29But it's also the only way I get to the truth about what happened to my father.
01:04:46This operation is connected to the truth behind Frank's death.
01:04:52It's time to face him.
01:04:55We go straight to General Crane.
01:05:05Aline, do you think General Crane will actually see us?
01:05:09Don't get your hopes up, kiddo.
01:05:10Lobby's open to anyone.
01:05:12Past those doors is a different story.
01:05:16Let's go.
01:05:23General services are to the left.
01:05:25Beyond this point is for authorized personnel and scheduled appointments only.
01:05:29We're here to see General Crane.
01:05:31Appointment confirmation number?
01:05:33We...
01:05:33Don't have one.
01:05:35Then please use the recruitment intake process or register at the front desk.
01:05:38The General doesn't take walk-ins.
01:05:51General.
01:05:55General.
01:05:56General.
01:06:01Please tell General Crane that...
01:06:06Elise Voss is here.
01:06:14General, the International Trafficking Network.
01:06:17Shadow is the only one who can crack it wide open.
01:06:19She's still refusing to return?
01:06:21She's in a bad place.
01:06:23The PTSD is hitting her hard.
01:06:25And yet she stepped up to protect Frank's children.
01:06:27She says Shadow is dead.
01:06:29She'll come back.
01:06:35Elise Voss.
01:06:36No record of that name here.
01:06:40Well, that's just embarrassing.
01:06:42We're still seeing him, right?
01:06:48Of all people.
01:06:52Valor Training Center showing up here.
01:06:54Don't tell me you're begging for a selection invite, too.
01:06:57Miss Harlow, Phantom Squad only has one partnership slot in Brighthaven.
01:07:01If they get in ahead of us, we're done.
01:07:10Mr. Albright and his janitor.
01:07:21Mrs. Harlow, good to see you.
01:07:23Go right ahead.
01:07:26Wait.
01:07:27Why does she get in and we don't?
01:07:29Mrs. Harlow runs Meridian Group.
01:07:32Biggest private security firm in the city.
01:07:34Who are you people, exactly?
01:07:36We're nobody.
01:07:37Don't sweat it.
01:07:38Not worth knowing.
01:07:40And you want to see General Crane?
01:07:44Mr. Albright, I know Elise is the real deal, but we're swinging blind here.
01:07:47No appointment, no credentials.
01:07:48We didn't think this through.
01:07:50Get Nathan out here.
01:07:51On whose authority?
01:07:52You think Captain Cross comes out when someone snaps their fingers?
01:07:55So what exactly brings Valor all the way up here?
01:07:57Elise brought us.
01:07:58We're here for an invitation to next month's Phantom Squad selection trial.
01:08:00You let a janitor talk you into doorstopping general?
01:08:04Mrs. Harlow, you hearing this?
01:08:06They actually let the janitor make me call.
01:08:09The woman you keep calling the janitor?
01:08:11It's your entire Meridian crew apart three days ago.
01:08:15All of them.
01:08:17I told you to get Nathan.
01:08:18Are you moving or am I?
01:08:21Hello?
01:08:22Nathan.
01:08:23Lobby.
01:08:24Now.
01:08:30What a performance.
01:08:32You actually gave Captain Cross an order?
01:08:33Who do you think you are?
01:08:34Just come to Meridian, guys.
01:08:36Miss Harlow has the connections to get you in front of General Crane.
01:08:38Think about it.
01:08:39Mr. Albright, I know exactly why you want access to Phantom Squad,
01:08:42but nothing I set my sights on has ever gotten away from me.
01:08:44Not once.
01:08:45It's the first time for everything.
01:08:46As long as I'm standing here,
01:08:48nobody is handing Valor a selection trial's invitation.
01:08:51Nobody.
01:08:52As far as I know, Meridian is a large operation,
01:08:55but not large enough to dictate Phantom Squad's decisions.
01:08:57Please.
01:08:58Let's just come.
01:08:59Let me be clear.
01:09:00Resources determine who gets chosen.
01:09:02You either have them or you don't.
01:09:04The only reason Valor was ever on my radar was Frank's name.
01:09:07That's it.
