00:14:12If my son dies, no one on Blackfire Island Base and the Marine Corps of the Defense Department will be
00:14:17able to protect you.
00:14:19Not even your father.
00:14:21My father?
00:14:23Do you even know who my father is?
00:14:25Russell Webb, the Navy Rear Armour in command of Blackfire Island Base?
00:14:28I can do whatever the hell I want.
00:14:33What the fuck is that?
00:14:35We're gonna run.
00:14:37We're gonna run.
00:14:46We're gonna run.
00:14:50We're gonna run.

00:15:07What the fuck?
00:15:26Dad! Dad, I'm right here!
00:15:34Dad, what the hell is this? Look at them! They've got me targeted! They're aiming at the wrong guy!
00:15:40Medic! Where's the medic? His heart rate is dropping fast!
00:16:02General, he's in critical condition. We need to get him to the field hospital now.
00:16:15Dad, now that you're back, don't leave again.
00:16:21Hang on, son. I'm here. I'm not going anywhere.
00:16:25Dad, I told them you were a hero. I said it 10,000 times, but they still beat me.
00:16:33You protected them, so why would they do this to me? Why?
00:16:37Why?
00:16:54NOOOOOO!
00:16:58NOOOOOO!
00:16:59NOOOOOO!
00:17:01NOOOOOO!
00:17:02NOOOOOO!
00:17:06NOOOOOO!
00:17:09NOOOOOO!
00:17:14Hahahahaha!
00:17:16Damn, he's dead? I thought we'd get to play a little longer.
00:17:18Dad, you showed up right on time. You should have seen it.
00:17:21This old man was on his knees begging in front of me, pathetic as hell.
00:17:25And his son was crawling around like a dog.
00:17:27What a pair of losers.
00:17:29And they still don't even know who they messed with.
00:17:33Hey, you old loser.
00:17:35Quit the funeral act and get over here.
00:17:38My dad is here now.
00:17:39If you get on your knees in front of him, maybe I'll let you take your son's body.
00:17:58You dare hit my dad?
00:18:05Navy rear arginal Russell Webb.
00:18:08Awaiting order.
00:18:14Awaiting orders!
00:18:32Dad, are you out of your mind?
00:18:34Why are you saluting him?
00:18:36He's a deserter, a traitor.
00:18:38He begged on his knees like a dog just now, and you saluted him?
00:18:41Shut your mouth, you bastard!
00:18:43Do you have any idea who he is?
00:18:49That's Jonathan Kent, hero of the Gulf War and a four-star general.
00:18:54I was pinned down in the desert for three days with no ammo.
00:18:57He cut a path through enemy fire alone with a machine gun.
00:19:01Without him, I'd have been dead and buried 30 years ago.
00:19:04Without him, our flag would have been buried in the sand out there.
00:19:07Without him, you wouldn't even exist.
00:19:09You're not even worthy of kneeling before him, let alone making him kneel to you.
00:19:13And you thought you had the right to do that?
00:19:15No, but isn't he a traitor?
00:19:18That's what the file said.
00:19:20It was a setup!
00:19:21Goddamn politics!
00:19:22He carried this country's sins for 19 years and hours too!
00:19:29While you were eating, drinking, and playing at the academy,
00:19:32he was rotting in a cell, taking the fall for men like me.
00:19:36Do you even understand that?
00:19:44General, I failed to raise my son properly.
00:19:46I accept full responsibility.
00:19:47Punish me as you see fit.
00:19:53Russell, you said that 30 years ago.
00:19:55Without me, you'd already be dead.
00:20:00Yes, sir.
00:20:04And 19 years ago, if I hadn't covered for you, you'd be dead again.
00:20:10Yes, sir.
00:20:16You don't have to repay me with your life.
00:20:20But today, his life pays for my son's.
00:20:25Any objections?
00:20:38I'm begging you, General.
00:20:40Please spare him!
00:20:48Dad.
00:20:58You object!
00:21:03General, I only have one son.
00:21:07He's my only son, too!
00:21:16General, do you really have to kill him?
00:21:21Yes!
00:21:24Yes!
00:21:25Yes!
00:21:28What if I say no?
00:21:33Are you turning on me?
00:21:37I already have.
00:21:40Who do you think put you in prison 19 years ago?
00:21:44Who did you think handed the president that forged intel?
00:21:48Who do you think got to every judge on your court-martial?
00:21:52Russell!
00:21:56Me, every single day of those 19 years you were in prison, was my gift to you.
00:22:04Why?
00:22:05Why?
00:22:07Why?
00:22:07Why?
00:22:07Because you were in my way.
00:22:08After the Gulf War, the Blast worshipped you like a god.
00:22:12And me?
00:22:13I was always the little snot-nosed trailing behind you.
00:22:16What, was I supposed to be your sidekick forever?
00:22:19Live in your shadow my whole life?
00:22:20So I put you away.
00:22:22You did the time, and I became rear-admiral.
00:22:25Your son got beaten like a dog, while mine got to play king on Blackfire Island Base.
00:22:31You couldn't stand above me anymore.
00:22:33And damn, it felt good.
00:22:43Dad, I knew we didn't have to be afraid of this old bastard.
00:22:47Jonathan, even if you took the president's offer and became secretary defense, you still couldn't touch me.
00:22:52I've already arranged a marriage alliance with Secretary of State Caitlin Blair.
00:22:56My son is going to marry her daughter.
00:23:03Blair is marrying her daughter off to your son?
00:23:07Blair is the frontrunner for the presidency.
00:23:10Once she's in office, I'll be secretary of defense.
00:23:12You're just an old man fresh out of prison.
00:23:15Not even God can save you now.
00:23:28I won't allow this marriage.
00:23:33You won't allow it?
00:23:34Who the hell are you?
00:23:3619 years in a cell, no rank, no pull, and your son's barely breathing.
00:23:40And you think you get a say?
00:23:41Want me to call Blair down here so she can tell you herself?
00:23:44Call her?
00:23:45You even have Blair's number?
00:23:47Need me to give it to you?
00:23:53Dad prison-fried his brain.
00:23:55He still thinks he's a four-star general.
00:23:59John?
00:24:00John, is that you?
00:24:01Oh my God, it's really you.
00:24:03You're out?
00:24:04When?
00:24:04Where are you?
00:24:05Are you okay?
00:24:13Damn, you actually called.
00:24:15I can't have you dragging those old bastards into this.
00:24:19Blair's on my side now, so I'm not scared.
00:24:25But don't make this messy for me, boss.
00:24:28Russell, what do you really want from me?
00:24:31I want you to hand me command of the entire military.
00:24:42John.
00:24:43John!
00:24:45Get in here!
00:24:49Madam Secretary?
00:24:51Trace that call.
00:24:51It came through my secure line.
00:24:52I want the location now.
00:24:54Madam Secretary, the signal came from Blackfire Island Base, relay station FT-0791.
00:24:59Get me the Pentagon.
00:25:04Madam Secretary, it's three in the morning.
00:25:07I said, get me the Pentagon!
00:25:17John, hold on.
00:25:20This time, you're not carrying it alone.
00:25:27Madam Secretary.
00:25:29Lock down Blackfire Island Base.
00:25:30No one in, no one out.
00:25:31Authorization code BLAIR-771.
00:25:34Now.
00:25:34Then notifies every active and retired officer who ever served under General Jonathan Kent.
00:25:38Their commander is on Blackfire Island with a gun to his head.
00:25:40Are they going to save him or not?
00:25:42Sound the war alert!
00:25:43Put the nation on emergency footing!
00:25:54Change course.
00:25:56Blackfire Island.
00:25:57Full speed ahead.
00:26:10Move out.
00:26:11We're heading to Blackfire Island.
00:26:13Yes, sir!
00:26:16Recall every mercenary.
00:26:18Cancel all leave.
00:26:21Stop every weapon shipment.
00:26:23Send it all to our private army.
00:26:25Now!
00:26:29Sir, where are we headed?
00:26:31Blackfire Island.
00:26:33Blackfire Island.
00:26:50We're on our way.
00:26:52He's waited 19 years.
00:26:55This time, we're not keeping him waiting.
00:26:57John, your soldiers are coming.
00:27:06Command the whole military?
00:27:08For a rear admiral, you've got one hell of an appetite.
00:27:13Boss, you taught me to think big.
00:27:15My idiot son is about to marry Secretary Blair's daughter.
00:27:19Once you sign and confess, Secretary of Defense is mine.
00:27:23Then the entire military answers to Webb.
00:27:26You've lost it.
00:27:27Maybe.
00:27:28But your son's dying.
00:27:30What choice do you have?
00:27:31His pulse is fading.
00:27:33Please, treat him first.
00:27:36Please!
00:27:38Please!
00:27:42Save him?
00:27:43My dad's still talking.
00:27:44Nobody's saving shit.
00:27:50Sign it.
00:27:52You want me to confess I'm a traitor?
00:27:54You already are.
00:27:56This just makes it official.
00:27:58Admit you forged the intel 19 years ago.
00:28:01Admit you lied to Congress.
00:28:03Admit you betrayed this country.
00:28:05Sign it.
00:28:06And your son lives.
00:28:08Russell, you know exactly who forged that intel.
00:28:10Yeah, it was me.
00:28:12So what?
00:28:12History belongs to the winners.
00:28:15Once you sign, you're the traitor on record.
00:28:18And me?
00:28:19I take down scum like you and walk straight into the Secretary of Defense job.
00:28:46You old bastard!
00:28:48You spit on my dad!
00:28:50You spit on my dad!
00:28:53How's that feel, boss?
00:28:55Never better.
00:28:58Luke!
00:28:59Got it.
00:29:00Stay away from him!
00:29:01Stay the fuck away from him!
00:29:08Run!
00:29:13Still won't sign, old man?
00:29:15You're tough.
00:29:16Let's see if your son is.
00:29:18No!
00:29:29Old man, if I dig any deeper,
00:29:34I might touch his lung.
00:29:36Want me to find out?
00:29:45How long do you think your boy has left?
00:29:47One minute?
00:29:48Two?
00:29:49Take a guess.
00:29:54I'll sign.
00:29:58Mr. Kent, don't sign!
00:30:02If you sign, they'll brand you a traitor forever!
00:30:06Dad, don't sign.
00:30:09I don't want you going back to prison.
00:30:12You already suffered for 19 years.
00:30:14I'd rather die.
00:30:16Shut your damn mouth!
00:30:18You think you didn't suffer?
00:30:19Look at you.
00:30:21Beaten.
00:30:22Treated like a dog.
00:30:25What kind of life did you have?
00:30:2719 years is nothing compared to what I owe you.
00:30:32Son, as long as you live, I'll do the time.
00:30:39I can rot in that cell for the rest of my life.
00:30:42But what about you?
00:30:44They'll call you a traitor forever!
00:30:48You're a hero!
00:30:49You're a hero, Dad!
00:30:56Traitor, hero.
00:30:58Those are just names.
00:30:59I don't care.
00:31:03I just need you alive.
00:31:08Mr. Kent!
00:31:19Dad, he signed it!
00:31:21The old bastard actually signed it!
00:31:27Well, well.
00:31:29Jonathan Kent, four-star general.
00:31:31Hero of the Gulf War.
00:31:33And now, a traitor on record.
00:31:40Dad!
00:31:41Secretary of Defense!
00:31:43You're going to be Secretary of Defense!
00:31:47Easy, son.
00:31:49The best days for the Webb family are just beginning.
00:31:53Now let my son go.
00:31:55Let your son go?
00:31:57Come on, boss.
00:31:59You've helped me this much.
00:32:01Helped me with one last thing.
00:32:04What now?
00:32:08Do me a favor.
00:32:10And die.
00:32:17Dad!
00:32:18Dad!
00:32:19Kill me instead!
00:32:21Don't touch my dad!
00:32:24You?
00:32:26Who the hell are you?
00:32:28You're not even worth dying in this place.
00:32:35Russell!
00:32:39A traitor signs his confession, can't live with the shame, then blows his brains out.
00:32:44I've already written tomorrow's headline.
00:32:46National disgrace Jonathan after confessing.
00:32:48After that, you're a traitor forever.
00:32:51No one clears your names.
00:32:53You sure you won't regret this?
00:32:59Dad, he says you'll regret it.
00:33:01He actually said that.
00:33:03You were locked up too long.
00:33:07Did prison rot your brain?
00:33:09Do you even know who I'm about to be tied to?
00:33:13Caitlin Blair, the Secretary of State.
00:33:15Youngest ever!
00:33:16Most powerful ever!
00:33:17She runs the State Department, has Congress in her pocket, and even DIA, NSA, and the CIA answer to her.
00:33:24Yeah.
00:33:25Secretary Blair's running for president.
00:33:27Once I marry her daughter, I'm the future president's son-in-law.
00:33:31My dad becomes Secretary of Defense, and this whole country?
00:33:35We run it.
00:33:36You're a washed-up old man, fresh out of a cell.
00:33:39No rank, no backing, nothing.
00:33:42Your son's life is in my hands.
00:33:43And you think I'll regret this?
00:33:45Even if you became Secretary of Defense, you couldn't lay a finger on me.
00:33:52Goodbye, boss.
00:33:57No!
00:33:58Dad!
00:34:00Dad!
00:34:03Dad!
00:34:16Dad!
00:34:17Dad!
00:34:20Let's go.
00:34:52Find out what the hell is going on!
00:34:55General, massive forces outside Blackfire Island base.
00:34:58We're surrounded.
00:34:59How many?
00:35:00No count.
00:35:00Too many.
00:35:01The sky's packed with jets.
00:35:02Radars flooded with contacts.
00:35:04Dozens of squadrons over Blackfire Island.
00:35:07F-35s everywhere.
00:35:19And a carrier strike group has sealed off the coast.
00:35:29Bullshit!
00:35:30No one moves this much firepower without orders from the Defense Department and the President!
00:35:37General!
00:35:38The base perimeter's collapsed!
00:35:40We're taking heavy losses!
00:35:41We're done!
00:35:45No, impossible.
00:35:47Get me Secretary Blair, now!
00:35:48No, no, no, no!
00:36:22Madam Secretary...
00:36:24Dad!
00:36:25It's Secretary Blair!
00:36:27She's here!
00:36:29You're dead, old man!
00:36:32My future mother-in-law is here!
00:36:35Secretary Blair?
00:36:36You came yourself?
00:36:37Don't worry, we've got it handled.
00:36:39My dad made him sign the confession.
00:36:41He's done for.
00:36:41We're family now, right?
00:36:43And about that Defense Secretary job?
00:36:58Ante Blair?
00:37:00Take their weapons.
00:37:10Madam Secretary, what is this?
00:37:13We're about to be family!
00:37:16Luke is marrying your daughter.
00:37:20You can't...
00:37:23Since when are we family?
00:37:46John...
00:37:47Kate, you still look the same.
00:37:5019 years. Look what they did to you.
00:37:55You haven't changed. Still beautiful.
00:38:00Please, you barely recognized me just now.
00:38:04I did. No one else walks across shell-cays and heels like you.
00:38:16No way. You know each other?
00:38:19How is that possible? He's a washed-up ex-con.
00:38:23How the hell does he know the Secretary of State?
00:38:29Jonathan Kent is my ex-husband. You touch him, you answer to me.
00:38:33What?
00:38:34John, it's your call. What happens to them?
00:38:37The coffins are already here.
00:38:40Bury them.
00:38:47No, no, don't!
00:38:48Dad! Dad! Save me! I don't want to be buried alive!
00:38:53No!
00:38:57Dad! Save me!
00:39:01Beg Blair!
00:39:02You said we were family, right?
00:39:04Beg her!
00:39:06Get down and beg!
00:39:14Madam Secretary, I was wrong. I know I was wrong. I won't marry your daughter, I swear.
00:39:21Please spare me!
00:39:22I'll do anything! Please!
00:39:26Don't apologize to me.
00:39:29General Kent, I was wrong! I shouldn't have hurt your son!
00:39:33I shouldn't have tortured him!
00:39:34I'm a monster! I'm not human!
00:39:37Please, let me live!
00:39:45Boss, I wronged you.
00:39:47But he's my only son.
00:39:54Neither of you is sorry.
00:39:57You just know you're about to die.
00:40:04Too late.
00:40:15Hang on, son.
00:40:17Dad's getting you out of here.
00:40:19This way!
00:40:20The field hospital's this way! Hurry!
00:40:23Hurry!
00:40:30Carry it out.
00:40:33No!
00:40:34Dad, help me!
00:40:37Somebody save me, please!
00:40:51I don't want to die!
00:40:57I'm a Navy Rear Admiral.
00:40:59I'm supposed to be Secretary of Defense.
00:41:03My son is marrying the Secretary of State's daughter.
00:41:07This can't be happening.
00:41:10This isn't how it was supposed to go.
00:41:16Wait!
00:41:17Go ahead!
00:41:19Bury me!
00:41:21But can you bury the four great Wall Street dynasties, too?
00:41:27Rockefeller.
00:41:31DuPont.
00:41:32Mellon.
00:41:34The four great Wall Street dynasties.
00:41:39They were my allies 19 years ago.
00:41:46Madam Secretary.
00:41:48One word from me, and all four families dump the market.
00:41:52It crashes in three hours.
00:41:54What do you tell the President?
00:41:55What do you tell 300 million voters?
00:41:57How long do you keep your job after that?
00:42:00Are you threatening me?
00:42:03Wouldn't dream of it.
00:42:05I'm just stating facts.
00:42:09You think I spent 19 years playing Rear Admiral?
00:42:12I'm here because those four families needed a man inside to control the country's arms
00:42:17roots by sea, air, and land.
00:42:19It all runs through me.
00:42:21Madam Secretary, you're not just talking to me.
00:42:24You're talking to Wall Street.
00:42:26Maybe you're not afraid of me.
00:42:29But what about Jonathan?
00:42:30The four families have plenty of ways to turn his quiet life into hell.
00:42:35You can protect him for a day.
00:42:37Can you protect him for life?
00:42:39Lay one finger on him, and I'll kill you right here!
00:42:43You don't have the guts!
00:42:45Madam Secretary, kill me, and by sunrise Wall Street goes feral.
00:42:48You're a politician.
00:42:49Your job is to do the math, so do it.
00:42:52What's worth more?
00:42:53My life, or the entire economy?
00:42:55Swear you'll leave Kent alone.
00:42:57Then get out.
00:43:05The boss has been out for two days.
00:43:15No word from him?
00:43:19Where is Russell?
00:43:21He was supposed to pick him up.
00:43:25Should I call Russell?
00:43:31Have you forgotten what the boss told us before he went inside?
00:43:38From this day on, the four families have nothing to do with Jonathan Kent.
00:43:46You don't know me.
00:43:48I never met you.
00:43:49Any business with Russell Webb is your own call.
00:43:52Keep your names buried.
00:43:59Back then, he was protecting us, Russell too.
00:44:04Nineteen years.
00:44:05Does that order still stand?
00:44:08He's out now.
00:44:09Should we go see him?
00:44:11Call Russell first.
00:44:12He'll know where the boss is.
00:44:19Johnson Rockefeller speaking.
00:44:20Mr. Rockefeller, Russell Webb, I need all four families to move.
00:44:24Now.
00:44:25Hit the market.
00:44:26Put pressure on the president.
00:44:39Johnson said yes.
00:44:41At tomorrow's opening bell,
00:44:43the four Wall Street dynasties move together.
00:44:48Stocks, bonds, currencies, everything crashes at once.
00:44:54Son, you know what that means?
00:44:57It means the president calls us first.
00:45:05Bigger than that.
00:45:07By tomorrow morning, 300 million people wake up broke.
00:45:13Their pensions gone.
00:45:15Their stocks worthless.
00:45:18Banks taking their homes.
00:45:20Bankrupt people in the streets.
00:45:23Bodies on the pavement.
00:45:26Then the president, Congress, the whole country.
00:45:34They'll all be on their knees, begging me to fix it.
00:45:40And then?
00:45:41Then what?
00:45:43Then I stop being a rear admiral.
00:45:45I become secretary of defense.
00:45:48No!
00:45:49President!
00:45:50And you.
00:45:52You'll be the first son.
00:45:54Any woman you want.
00:45:56Any house you want.
00:45:57Any power you want.
00:45:59It's yours.
00:46:02Hell yeah!
00:46:03This is incredible!
00:46:04Let that old bastard and his useless son die!
00:46:08Die!
00:46:08Die!
00:46:09Death isn't enough.
00:46:11I'll make them rot in history.
00:46:15Tomorrow on national TV, Jonathan Kent will confess that he and his son are both deserters.
00:46:23Hmm.
00:46:45Dad?
00:46:49Bran, you're awake.
00:46:51Are you hurt?
00:46:54Where does it hurt?
00:46:56I'll get the doctor.
00:47:00Dad, they hurt you too.
00:47:05I'm tough.
00:47:07A few hits won't kill me.
00:47:09Don't lie to me.
00:47:11I'm not worth all this.
00:47:16Listen to me.
00:47:18You're worth it.
00:47:21You're the only thing in my life worth a damn.
00:47:24Traitor, confession, none of it matters.
00:47:29Let them say what they want.
00:47:31You're my son.
00:47:32Always.
00:47:34Dad, I missed you.
00:47:36For 19 years, I thought about you every day.
00:47:39When they beat me, I called for you.
00:47:42But you weren't there.
00:47:44I'm here.
00:47:46I'm not going anywhere.
00:47:48Not ever again.
00:47:59An unprecedented financial crisis is unfolding.
00:48:02Just 15 minutes after the opening bell.
00:48:04The Dow is down more than 20,000 points.
00:48:07The S&P has triggered a level one market halt.
00:48:10People of this country, do you know who caused this disaster?
00:48:13Jonathan Kent, a trader.
00:48:15He conspired with foreign powers and sold out this country.
00:48:19He must go on national television and confess his crimes.
00:48:23Until he does, this crisis will not end.
00:48:25Until he does, this crisis will not end.
00:48:29Jonathan Kent and Brandon Kent betrayed this country.
00:48:33They deserted in combat.
00:48:35Father and son, both deserters.
00:48:41Dad, what are you doing?
00:48:44I'm taking back what I gave that bastard 19 years ago.
00:48:55People of this country, hear me.
00:48:59As long as I'm standing, no trader walks free.
00:49:10Russell Webb, I spared your life last night at Blackfire Island.
00:49:16You swore you'd leave Jonathan alone.
00:49:19What the hell are you doing now?
00:49:22You should have killed me.
00:49:27Last night.
00:49:31Russell, you called the four families and had them crash the market.
00:49:36300 million people lost their savings overnight.
00:49:39So tell me, who's the traitor now?
00:49:43Where's your proof?
00:49:44Madam Secretary, you expect the whole country to take your word for it?
00:49:47You!
00:49:49Madam Secretary, the market is collapsing, people are dying, and the whole country is watching.
00:49:54You want it to stop?
00:49:55Now, get on your knees and beg me.
00:49:58Don't kneel, and the market keeps falling.
00:50:01It won't stop until everyone burns with it.
00:50:05Dad, that's cold.
00:50:07She's the Secretary of State, the most powerful one ever.
00:50:10The most powerful one ever?
00:50:12Then let the most powerful Secretary in history kneel to me!
00:50:28Dad, look at her.
00:50:30She actually knelt.
00:50:32This is fucking perfect.
00:50:34Did you see that?
00:50:36Did the whole country see that?
00:50:38The Secretary of State just knelt to me.
00:50:42Madam Secretary, that was a good start.
00:50:44But I'm not done.
00:50:46I want one more person on his knees.
00:50:49Jonathan Kent!
00:50:51You hear me?
00:50:52Your woman already knelt for you.
00:50:54Now it's your turn.
00:50:55Come face the country.
00:50:56Admit you're a traitor.
00:50:58Admit your son is a deserter or else.
00:51:00Those numbers are your crime.
00:51:02Or else what?
00:51:06Well, well.
00:51:07The four-star general finally shows up.
00:51:09You wanted the whole country to see a traitor.
00:51:12Good.
00:51:12Let them watch.
00:51:14Today they'll see which one of us sold out this country.
00:51:20You're asking me who sold out this country?
00:51:23Dad, he did time, and it fried his brain.
00:51:26He still thinks he's a four-star general.
00:51:28Now he's here trying to interrogate you?
00:51:31I'm dying.
00:51:34Boss, you're out of cards.
00:51:38Ah, my hand!
00:51:41Dad, you old bastard!
00:51:42You touched my father!
00:51:44Security, take him down!
00:51:46Mr. Rockefeller, Mr. Morgan, Mr. DuPont, Mr. Mello!
00:51:50You finally showed up!
00:51:54Johnson Rockefeller, 13th generation head of the Rockefeller family of Wall Street.
00:51:59I am General Kent's card.
00:52:01Edward Morgan, 9th generation head of the Morgan family of Wall Street.
00:52:05I am General Kent's card.
00:52:06Charles DuPont, 7th generation head of the DuPont family of Wall Street.
00:52:10I am General Kent's card.
00:52:13William Mellon, 5th generation head of the Mello family of Wall Street.
00:52:16I am General Kent's card.
00:52:18No, this is bullshit!
00:52:20What are you doing?
00:52:21You were on my side!
00:52:22We've been allies for 19 years!
00:52:24How could you-
00:52:25Allies?
00:52:26We worked with you for one reason.
00:52:28General Kent ordered it 19 years ago, that's all.
00:52:31Dad, what does that mean?
00:52:33What is he saying?
00:52:39What is he saying?
00:52:41First, I gave you all of it, and now I'm taking it back.
00:52:47Johnson, 30 billion by the market!
00:52:53Edward Morgan family, 30 billion by the market!
00:52:57Charles DuPont family, 30 billion by the market!
00:53:01William Mellon family, 30 billion by the market!
00:53:09It's over.
00:53:12My turn.
00:53:14What cards do you have left?
00:53:22Why?
00:53:24How is this possible?
00:53:27They- How the hell are they yours?
00:53:2919 years!
00:53:30We were allies for 19 years!
00:53:33We moved markets together!
00:53:35We controlled the arms routes together!
00:53:37Why would they help you?
00:53:39It's fake, Dad.
00:53:40It has to be.
00:53:41They're actors!
00:53:42The old bastard paid them off!
00:53:44No way the four Wall Street dynasties take orders to some washed-up ex-con!
00:53:48Right.
00:53:50Staged.
00:53:51This is all staged!
00:53:53You're all setting me up!
00:54:03You ungrateful dog.
00:54:0519 years ago, who vouched for you on Capitol Hill and got you into naval intelligence?
00:54:10Jonathan Kent, who carried you out of a pile of bodies in the desert and kept you alive with his
00:54:15own blood.
00:54:16Jonathan Kent!
00:54:18He treated you like a brother.
00:54:19He took a nobody and made him a rear argyle.
00:54:23Now, the four families threw you bones and plenty of meat, only because he told us to.
00:54:29And what did you do?
00:54:30For your own ambition, you betrayed the only man who ever gave a damn about you!
00:54:34How many innocent people died because of you?
00:54:37We were blind for 19 years, backing a piece of filth like you.
00:54:42Boss!
00:54:43I was wrong!
00:54:45Greed blinded me!
00:54:46I'm not a man!
00:54:48Spare me one more time!
00:54:49Just one last time!
00:54:50Russell, you still haven't answered me.
00:54:52Tell me, what cards do you have left?
00:54:55You're out of cards.
00:54:57Because of you, countless families are broken.
00:55:00People lost everything.
00:55:01Some were driven to take their own lives.
00:55:04Those lives, those futures you destroyed.
00:55:12You and your bastard son will pay for every bit of it.
00:55:17No!
00:55:18Boss, you can't do this to me!
00:55:20God, I was wrong!
00:55:21Please, just one more chance!
00:55:22I swear I'll never do it again!
00:55:24If regret could save men like you, hell wouldn't exist.
00:55:27You're both scum.
00:55:30You and that son of Yun have poison in your blood.
00:55:34Cold-blooded bastards like you belong in hell.
00:55:37General Kent, please don't kill me!
00:55:39I don't want to die!
00:55:40I was wrong!
00:55:40I'm a piece of shit!
00:55:41I'll be...
00:55:44Under Title 18, Section 2381, anyone owing allegiance to this country who wages war against it
00:55:50or gives aid to its enemies is guilty of treason.
00:55:54The penalty is death.
00:55:56Kate, handle them as traitors.
00:55:59Do it.
00:56:03No!
00:56:04Don't!
00:56:05Dad, say something!
00:56:09Jonathan, don't think this is over.
00:56:11You take me down today and your son is as good as dead.
00:56:17What did you just say?
00:56:20Open up.
00:56:22I can drink it myself.
00:56:24With that arm, open up.
00:56:34Who the hell are you?
00:56:42Mia!
00:56:43Get your fucking hands off her!
00:56:50Brandon Kent?
00:56:52The traitor's son?
00:56:54Well, well.
00:56:55Half dead and still talking tough.
00:56:58Who the hell are you?
00:57:03You want to live?
00:57:04Call that dessert father of here's.
00:57:06Now.
00:57:07No tricks.
00:57:10Not calling?
00:57:12Got guts.
00:57:25Let me go, you bastard!
00:57:28Listen, you little bastard.
00:57:29Make the call or I'll have your little girlfriend right here.
00:57:39Get off her!
00:57:41Don't touch her!
00:57:45Then make the call.
00:57:48Call that deserter father of yours.
00:57:51Tell him to come alone.
00:57:53No soldiers.
00:57:55Just Russell and Luke.
00:57:58Or I cut her throat first.
00:58:00Then yours.
00:58:03You animals.
00:58:04Ten seconds.
00:58:06Ten.
00:58:07Nine.
00:58:08I'll call.
00:58:09I'll do it.
00:58:11Call!
00:58:13What did you say?
00:58:15What did you do to my son?
00:58:17You'll find out soon enough.
00:58:26Dad, help me.
00:58:27Five men stormed the hospital.
00:58:29They're armed.
00:58:30They've got Mia.
00:58:31Dad, please save us.
00:58:42Well, boss, see who's winning now?
00:58:50You old bastard, let us go or your son dies.
00:58:55That pretty little nurse dies, too.
00:58:58Feel hard.
00:59:01You animals!
00:59:03Listen carefully.
00:59:05Bring Russell Webb and his idiot son.
00:59:08You give me them, I give you your boy and his little girlfriend.
00:59:12Simple.
00:59:13And don't alert anyone.
00:59:15You do.
00:59:16I put them both in the ground.
00:59:18I keep my word.
00:59:24John, don't go.
00:59:25It's a trap.
00:59:26If you walk in alone with them, they'll kill you.
00:59:28Kate, I know it's a trap.
00:59:31But my son is the bait.
00:59:32Then let me send in troops.
00:59:34No, I'm going alone.
00:59:44Still playing the devoted father, huh?
00:59:46Don't worry.
00:59:49I'll make sure you see your son and his little girlfriend.
01:00:10Give me the address.
01:00:12You kept your word, General Kent.
01:00:14Hold Refinery 7.
01:00:16Come alone.
01:00:17No tricks.
01:00:18You know what happens if you try anything.
01:00:47He's clean. No weapons.
01:01:10Dad, don't come closer.
01:01:24General Kent, you made it.
01:01:31Welcome to the party.
01:01:40Let my son go.
01:01:45Sure. Give me the webs first.
01:01:48How do I know you'll keep your word?
01:01:52You don't have a choice, General Kent.
01:01:57That's right, old bastard.
01:01:59Let us go, or your son gets his head blown off.
01:02:03Do it, boss.
01:02:04Volkov's got a temper.
01:02:06Don't test him.
01:02:18Don't test him.
01:02:20Don't test him.
01:02:40I said I'd let your son go, and I did.
01:02:58Old bastard, I said I'd spare your son.
01:03:01I never said I'd spare you.
01:03:14General Kent, my employer put a price on your head I couldn't refuse.
01:03:19Nothing personal.
01:03:21No, no, no.
01:03:23No, no, no, no.
01:03:24I'll be there.
