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

00:15:39Medic!
00:15:40Where's the medic?
00:15:41His heart rate is dropping fast!
00:16:02General, he's in critical condition.
00:16:04We need to get him to the field hospital now.
00:16:15Dad, now that you're back, don't leave again.
00:16:21Hang on, son.
00:16:22I'm here.
00:16:23I'm not going anywhere.
00:16:25Dad, I told them you were a hero.
00:16:28I said it 10,000 times, but they still beat me.

00:47:17You're worth it.
00:47:20You'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.
00:47:33Dad, I missed you.
00:47:35For 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.
00:48:22Until 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.
00:48:58As long as I'm standing, no trader walks free.
00:49:09Russell Webb, I spared your life last night at Blackfire Island.
00:49:15You swore you'd leave Jonathan alone.
00:49:18What 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.
00:49:35300 million people lost their savings overnight.
00:49:39So tell me, who's the traitor now?
00:49:42Where's your proof?
00:49:44Madam Secretary, you expect the whole country to take your word for it?
00:49:47You!
00:49:48Madam Secretary, the market is collapsing, people are dying, and the whole country is watching.
00:49:54You want it to stop?
00:49:55Get 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.
00:50:29She actually knelt.
00:50:32This is fucking perfect.
00:50:34Did you see that?
00:50:35Did the whole country see that?
00:50:37The Secretary of State just knelt to me.
00:50:41Madam Secretary, that was a good start.
00:50:44But I'm not done.
00:50:45I want one more person on his knees.
00:50:49Jonathan Kent!
00:50:50You hear me?
00:50:51Your woman already knelt for you.
00:50:53Now it's your turn.
00:50:54Come face the country.
00:50:56Admit you're a traitor.
00:50:57Admit your son is a deserter or else.
00:51:00Those numbers are your crime!
00:51:02Or else what?
00:51:05Well, well.
00:51:07The four-star general finally shows up.
00:51:09You wanted the whole country to see a traitor.
00:51:11Good.
00:51:12Let them watch.
00:51:13Today 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.
00:51:24And it fried his brain.
00:51:25He 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.
00:51:37Ah!
00:51:39My hand!
00:51:40Dad!
00:51:41You old bastard!
00:51:42You touched my father!
00:51:43Security!
00:51:44Take him down!
00:51:46Mr. Rockefeller!
00:51:47Mr. Morgan!
00:51:48Mr. DuPont!
00:51:49Mr. Mello!
00:51:50You finally showed up!
00:51:54Johnson Rockefeller, 13th generation head of the Rockefeller family of Wall Street.
00:51:58I am General Kent's card.
00:52:01Edward Morgan, 9th generation head of the Morgan family of Wall Street.
00:52:04I 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.
00:52:12William Mellon, 5th generation head of the Mello family of Wall Street.
00:52:16I am General Kent's card.
00:52:18No!
00:52:18This is bullshit!
00:52:19What are you doing?
00:52:20You were on my side!
00:52:22We've been allies for 19 years!
00:52:24How could you-
00:52:25Allies, we worked with you for one reason.
00:52:27General Kent ordered it 19 years ago.
00:52:29That's all.
00:52:31Dad, what does that mean?
00:52:33What is he saying?
00:52:36Russell, everything you have, every deal, every promotion, every star on your chest,
00:52:41I gave you all of it.
00:52:43And now, I'm taking it back.
00:52:46Johnson.
00:52:4730 billion!
00:52:48Buy the market!
00:52:53Edward, Morgan family, 30 billion, buy the market!
00:52:57Charles, DuPont family, 30 billion, buy the market!
00:53:01William, Melon family, 30 billion, buy the market!
00:53:08It'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-
00:53:27How the hell are they yours?
00:53:2919 years!
00:53:30We were allies for 19 years!
00:53:32We moved markets together!
00:53:34We controlled the arms routes together!
00:53:37Why would they help you?!
00:53:38It's fake, Dad!
00:53:40It has to be!
00:53:40They're actors!
00:53:41The 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!
00:53:52You're all setting me up!
00:54:02You ungrateful dog.
00:54:0419 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
00:54:15with his own blood.
00:54:16Jonathan Kent!
00:54:17He treated you like a brother.
00:54:19He took a nobody and made him a rear ardull.
00:54:23The four families threw you bones and plenty of meat, only because he told us to.
00:54:28And 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?
00:54:36We were blind for 19 years.
00:54:39Backing a piece of filth like you.
00:54:41Boss!
00:54:42I was wrong!
00:54:44Greed blinded me!
00:54:46I'm not a man!
00:54:47Spare 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.
00:55:03Those lives, those futures, were 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.
00:55:23If regret could save men like you, hell wouldn't exist.
00:55:27You're both scum.
00:55:29You and that son of Yun have poison in your blood.
00:55:33Cold-blooded bastards like you belong in hell.
00:55:37General Kent, please don't kill me!
00:55:38I don't want to die!
00:55:39I 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
00:55:49it, or gives aid to its enemies, is guilty of treason.
00:55:54The penalty is death.
00:55:56Kate, handle them as traitors.
00:55:58Do it.
00:56:02No!
00:56:04Don't!
00:56:04Dad, 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.
00:56:21I can drink it myself.
00:56:23With 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?
00:56:53Well, 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?
00:57:11Got guts.
00:57:25Let me go, you bastard!
00:57:27Listen, 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.
00:57:54Just Russell and Luke.
00:57:56Or I cut her throat first.
00:58:00Then yours.
00:58:02You animals.
00:58:04Ten seconds.
00:58:05Ten.
00:58:06Nine.
00:58:08I'll call.
00:58:09I'll do it.
00:58:10Call!
00:58:13What did you say?
00:58:15What did you do to my son?
00:58:17You'll find out soon enough.
00:58:25Dad, help me!
00:58:27Five men stormed the hospital.
00:58:28They're armed.
00:58:29They've got Mia.
00:58:31Dad, please save us!
00:58:42Well, boss?
00:58:43See who's winning now?
00:58:50You old bastard!
00:58:52Let us go, or your son dies!
00:58:55That pretty little nurse dies, too.
00:58:58You feel hard.
00:59:01You animals!
00:59:03Listen carefully.
00:59:05Bring Russell Webb and his idiot son.
00:59:07You give me them, I give you your boy and his little girlfriend.
00:59:11Simple.
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.
00:59:30But 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.
00:59:48I'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.
01:00:48No weapons.
01:00:51No weapons.
01:01:09Dad.
01:01:11Don't come closer.
01:01:24General Kent.
01:01:26You made it.
01:01:31Welcome to the party.
01:01:40Let my son go.
01:01:45Sure.
01:01:46Give 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.
01:02:02Do it, boss.
01:02:04Volkov's got a temper.
01:02:05Don't test him.
01:02:17Don't test him.
01:02:18Do it.
01:02:23Don't test him.
01:02:25Move.
01:02:31Get out.
01:02:33Get out.
01:02:39I 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.
01:03:17Old bastard, I said I'd spare you.
