My name is Michael Westen.
I used to be a spy until
We got a burn notice
on you. You're blacklisted.
When you're burned,
you've got nothing --
no cash, no credit,
no job history.
You're stuck in whatever city
they decide to dump you in.
- Where am I?
- Miami.
You do whatever work
comes your way.
You rely on anyone
who's still talking to you.
A trigger-happy girlfriend
Should we shoot them?
an old friend who used
to inform on you to the FBI
You know spies --
a bunch of *** little girls.
family, too
Hey, is that your mom again?
if you're desperate.
Someone needs your help, Michael.
and a down-and-out spy
you met along the way.
That's how we do it,
people.
Bottom line --
as long as you're burned,
you're not going anywhere.
Mike, what'd you do?
I did what I had to,
Sam.
You killed Tom Card.
And your friends
helped you escape.
You are now enemies
of the United States of America.
I didn't betray my country.
I was trying to protect it.
I don't care.
I need a little favor,
Dixon.
I got to get in touch with
that guy you told me about,
the smuggler --
Schmidt was his name.
The guy you said
could move anything or anybody.
We need
the whole package --
new identities
in a foreign country
and safe passage there.
Can you do that?
Yes. Yes.
Anything smuggle-able,
I smuggle.
Riley's coming after me now.
She knows I'm helping you.
Madeline,
you can't stay in Miami.
Well, what am I
supposed to do?!
You'll come with us. We're
already having cover I.D.s made.
We'll make one more.
How soon can we leave?
The terms of the arrangement
may have changed.
You guys may have to foot
some of the bill.
What's the most
expensive thing
that we can carry
out of your warehouse?
Call it
"sensitive electronics."
I have a client who, upon
delivery, will pay $1 million.
We got the money.
But you destroyed my warehouse.
I'm ripping off my clients.
You guys ruined me.
I cannot wait
for all of you to get
the hell out of my house
and out of the country.
Here's to
seeing the world.
In the intelligence world,
when an operation demands
that you disappear,
it's understood that you
will disappear entirely.
You can't have anything that
links you to your former life.
No credit history,
no communication with friends,
and nothing
with your old name on it.
That's hard enough for
an intelligence professional
to deal with.
For a civilian,
it's nearly impossible.
I'm gonna need that, too.
No! I-I started this address
book before I got married.
I don't want to do this.
Mom, we're getting new lives,
new identities.
We can't have any links
to the old ones.
I understand.
But, you know, if there was
an emergency or something,
we should be
able to call someone.
This can't be
how this works.
I mean, surely there must
be arrangements.
Madeline, this isn't like
Witness Protection.
We're not being hidden
by the government.
We're running from them.
There's no one
to make arrangements.
It's just us.
I know what it's like to leave
somebody without saying goodbye.
But it has to
be this way.
What will, um
what will everybody think?
Well, with any luck,
they'll think you died.
And my grandson?
Nate's little boy has already
lost his father.
He shouldn't have to grow up
without family.
We can't risk
contacting them.
It's for his safety
as much as it is for ours.
No.
So, when do I get
this new identity?
Jesse and Sam
are working on it right now.
We'll all be safe soon,
Ma.
When you're on the run
and you're planning
on doing some serious
international travel,
you need to be prepared
to put together some
top-notch travel documents.
Making a fake I.D.
that can reliably
cross a border these days
isn't just a matter
of getting special paper
and a hologram sticker.
You need some very expensive,
high technology.
Unfortunately, the people who
sell that kind of technology
tend to be very unpleasant
and very well-armed.
Hey, fellas.
Your boss is expecting us.
Not liking the goon squad.
You sure we can't buy these
passport chips somewhere else?
Look, Schmidt said
this guy Vanek
is the only other smuggler
in town
who can get his hands
on them.
So, we either buy from Vanek,
or we stay in Miami.
Yeah, I get that.
But why isn't Schmidt here
helping us out?
He had some kind of falling out
with this guy a while back.
I guess smugglers are as
territorial as a pack of wolves.
Oh, that makes me feel
so much better.
Look, we've got the cash.
Vanek has the chips, okay?
We get in, we get out,
we go.
Who the hell are you?
Hey. How are you?
Uh, Schmidt sent us.
We're here for the chips --
the, uh, passport chips.
Yeah? Where's Schmidt?
Schmidt -- oh, he had a thing.
He, uh
Yeah, he's a --
he's a busy little guy.
Couldn't make it.
You know how it is.
But we got the money, you got the chips,
so let's just do this.
I don't know you.
I'm not dealing with you.
Okay, listen.
Hang on.
Schmidt said this was cool.
I told Schmidt
that he had to come and grovel
for the chips himself.
I want the satisfaction of
seeing that little toad squirm.
This conversation is over.
Okay, listen, I understand that there
was some bad blood between you --
Bad blood?
Bad blood doesn't even begin
to describe it.
You have any idea
how much business
that little *** has cost me
over the years?
Well, look, that has nothing
to do with us, okay?
We're just some guys who
want to get out of the country
as fast as possible.
Look, I'm sure $200,000
is more than enough
for you to put your feelings
about Schmidt aside. I mean --
It's not about the money.
Okay,
how about $300,000?
Now can it be
about the money?
Make it $400,000,
and we'll talk.
$400,000.
Okay,
now are we in business?
It's nothing personal,
you understand.
Just Schmidt needs to be
reminded who the top dog is.
Oh, that's great.
We'll be sure to tell him.
I want you to tell him
that I intend
to put his pathetic little
enterprise out of its misery.
I've already taken over his
contacts in China and the Yemen,
and I'm closing a deal with the
South Koreans even as we speak.
Duly noted.
Please give this to Schmidt
with my warmest regards.
Oh, and give him this,
as well.
- No, no, no, no.
- Sam, Sam.
Go on, take a shot.
Sam,
I think it's time to go.
It's been a pleasure
doing business with you.
Please enjoy
the rest of your day.
You made it sound a lot easier
on the way in.
Yeah. Remind me to talk
to Schmidt about that.
Original Air Date on December 13, 2012
One of the biggest challenges
of being a fugitive
is security.
When you're being hunted,
you have to be on your guard
around the clock.
If you're hiding
in a safe house,
that means keeping an eye
out the window,
having your weapon ready,
and spending some quality time
in front of perimeter cams.
And sometimes,
just as important
as keeping your enemy out
is holding your team in.
Oh!
I thought you were gone.
I thought you went to pick up
passports with everybody else.
I figured they could handle
that one without me.
I volunteered to stay behind
and keep an eye on the house.
Keep an eye on the house
or on me?
That's what I thought.
I have an errand
I have to run.
Hey, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
What? What?
Maybe I can take care of it
for you.
I don't think so.
I would like to go see
Nate's grave one last time
before we leave.
Maddy, yeah, that's -- that's --
the CIA's gonna see that coming.
What, are you my bodyguard
or my jailer?
It's not like that.
Yeah, really? It seems like that.
Listen, listen.
We all have things
we have to leave behind.
I don't get to go see
my mom's grave, either.
It's just the way it is.
I'm sorry.
It's not your fault.
I should have known this is
what it was gonna be like
if I agreed to run.
When do we leave?
A few hours.
Schmidt's tech buddy, Dixon,
is finishing up the travel docs.
As soon as that's done,
we're gone.
And it's gonna be okay,
Maddy.
Is it?
I hope so.
I already apologized
a thousand times, okay?
If it makes you feel any better,
you got off easy.
I'm the one losing my business
one piece at a time!
I don't want to hear it.
I just want you
to verify these passports
so we can all move on
with our lives.
Fine with me, okay?
Because hanging around in public
with you guys
is not good for my ulcer.
Thank you, Dixon, for making us
wait in the hot parking lot.
My shirt's sticking to crevasses
I didn't know I had.
Oh, I'm sorry. Did you want
to go into the office,
sit by the water cooler,
refresh?
Why is he yelling at me?
Dixon! The passports.
Passports, yeah,
you can call them that,
if you're trying to insult me.
I call them masterpieces.
Here. Here's yours.
You take those two.
Let me see. Come on.
The chips are in
the back flap.
Okay. Well, they look good,
but let's see them in action.
This is hooked up
to U.S. immigration.
Here we go.
Um, let's do
a little role playing.
I'll be a customs agent
and you be a naughty passenger.
Passport, please.
Thank you.
Here we go.
Kimberly?
You seem more like a Kimmie
to me.
Oh, Michael, look.
My alias went to Venice in '03.
That doesn't let you off
the hook for not taking me.
Okay, what about
facial recognition?
I altered the photos.
I raised the noses,
lowered the ears a little bit.
To a customs agent,
you look the same.
To a computer, you're
a totally different person.
Oh, and these babies
never expire.
Great. Good work. Good work.
Untraceable. Worth every penny.
Let's all scoot.
What do you say?
Schmidt, why are you so anxious
to leave all of a sudden?
Anxious? Who's anxious?
I-I should really go back
to my house.
No, what you need do
is tell us who's in those cars
you've been watching.
Those S.U.V.s were outside
Vanek's place yesterday
when we bought the chips.
Guys, if Vanek is here,
we need to leave right now!
- Okay, this sucks!
- Let's go!
Bye, guys!
Go, guys! I'm serious!
Drive very fast now!
Okay, you care to tell me
why Vanek's chasing us?
He wants more money.
Maybe he broke his hand
on your unnaturally large jaw.
I don't know!
Sam,
what the hell's going on?
They're trying to make us
spin out! Hang on tight!
When you're being chased,
you want to be driving
something with speed,
maneuverability, and stability.
In other words,
you want to be driving anything
but a container van.
If you find yourself
in an underpowered vehicle
with a high center of gravity
and a top speed of 60,
your best bet is
to attack whoever's after you
with everything you have.
We got to lose these guys!
Can't you shoot out their tires?
Look, Mike and Fi
are riding blind back there,
and I'm a little busy.
Here.
Can you shoot lefty
hanging three feet out
of a moving vehicle?
No, shotguns, please.
They put me in a bad place.
What the hell good
are you?
If an attack's
out of the question,
it's all about getting
as much distance as you can
between yourself
and your pursuers
and bailing out.
Okay, we just passed a factory.
It looks empty.
Might be a good spot
to take cover.
Well, it's back that way,
and we're -- we're not that way.
Okay, hang on.
Can we make it
through there?
You tell me.
It's your piece-of-crap van.
Ow!
Hey, good job, baby.
Look out! They're coming for us!
They're coming! They're coming!
Come on, Schmidt,
let's go.
I got bad knees.
That's gonna be the least
of your worries
if you don't move
your ***.
Here they come!
Fan out! We're not leaving
without Schmidt!
I want this place locked down!
All right, Schmidt, you better
tell us what's going on.
Vanek has completely lost it.
Yeah, I can see that.
I'm thinking you gave him
a good reason.
What? No, no.
He's the man
who's unstable at best.
Then explain to me why
your first instinct was to run
when you saw Vanek coming.
Because I thought you guys
took care of business yesterday.
I was surprised
to see him!
No! We were surprised.
You were scared.
Now, you want to tell us
what's going on,
or are we all walking out
to ask Vanek?
Okay, listen, listen.
Michael, I called the feds
on him, okay?
But I thought
he would get swept him up.
Somebody must have tipped him off.
Damn it, Schmidt!
You really think now is
a good time to rat someone out?
He's -- he's a bad guy.
Oh, don't give me that. Vanek
is going after your business.
You were just trying to
eliminate the competition!
Fi, we can beat Schmidt up later
about this.
Right now, we got to figure out
how the hell
we're getting out of here.
Get in there, you wankers!
You -- you can
hold them off, right?
I mean,
I know the shotgun's out,
but as long as
you've got your pistol,
Vanek can't actually
get in here.
Not until I run out of ammo,
which will be in about a minute.
How are we doing, Sam?
Still working on it, Mike.
I could work a little faster
if I could actually see
what the hell I was doing.
Here we go.
Hey, now we're cooking.
Fi, this goes deeper
into the factory.
Don't suppose you brought
a pair of bolt cutters with you?
No. But I do have
the next best thing.
I count five more guys.
How many guys
does he need to shoot me?
He's not planning
on shooting you.
He's planning
on taking you alive.
They're taking up position
to surround the place,
not assault it.
Oh, God. Oh, God. He --
he did this to a guy last year.
He tortured him,
got everything on his business,
and then stabbed him
in the neck.
You got to do something.
Sam,
we got to move now!
Okay, Mike,
get a move on!
Go. Move.
Go!
What are we dealing
with here, Mike?
Vanek's got 10 guys,
and they're well-armed.
We can stay ahead of them
if we can make it out the back.
What? That's the plan?
Keep moving.
Uh, does it involve
hitchhiking?
Because our ride is back there
with the bad guys.
I'm working on that.
Hey, Mike.
You get our tickets out of town?
Yeah. We're not leaving
just yet.
Schmidt tried to sell Vanek out
to the FBI,
and now Vanek's got us pinned
down in a factory on Palm Drive.
What?!
Okay, let's pick up the pace.
What the hell was that?
That's Vanek's guys
trying to bust in.
All right, just tell me
what you need.
We're heading
to the back of the factory now.
We'll be coming out hot.
Do you think you could
meet us there with a ride?
Something that can take
a lot of bullets?
Yeah, okay,
I'll see what I can do.
We can maybe hold them off for
half an hour, so make it quick.
Yeah, hang on.
I'm on the way.
What's happening?
We got to go. Mike's in trouble.
Well, where are we going?
I'll explain on the way.
Are they still doing construction off
Biscayne and 27th?
Aren't they always?
Jesse, when you said
a getaway vehicle,
I wasn't thinking
of a dump truck.
Mike said they're gonna
be coming out under heavy fire.
We need something
that can handle a few bullets.
Well,
what about the driver?
He's not gonna just turn his truck over.
It's gonna be fine.
Maddy, just -- just do it
like we planned, okay?
Hi. How are you?
I'm all right.
I'm Phyllis,
and this is Earl.
And we're with
the rental company.
We came to pick up your truck
for the safety recall.
What?
Oh, Gina from
the construction office
didn't call you this morning
and tell you?
'Cause everybody knew
we were coming down.
You know what?
Why don't you sort this out
with the office and come back?
I-I've got work to do.
Oh, excuse me. I'm sorry.
I don't think you understand.
We're talking about a very
serious safety issue here.
In fact, we can't even allow you
to operate this truck today.
Look, lady, I'm on my second
double shift this week,
and I can't go home
until I deliver three loads.
I understand, believe me.
It's just we've had, um,
several injuries,
and I just don't want to think
of you as getting hurt.
That's all.
Um, what if -- look, if --
if my mechanic
just took a quick look
at it.
Is that cool with you, Earl?
It's no problem.
Yeah, and if your truck's
all right, you're back at work.
And if it's not, well, I think
you're gonna be very grateful
to both of us for coming all
the way down here, believe me.
So, what do you say?
All right.
Make it quick.
Yep.
All right, start her up,
big guy.
If you want to scare someone
into thinking their vehicle
is malfunctioning,
nothing is more convincing
than a small explosion.
The Mercury fulminate
in a blasting cap
gives you the perfect amount
of explosive
to send the message
loud and clear
without killing the vehicle
or anyone in it.
Okay, everything looks all right
from here.
The, uh, fireworks usually start
when you rev it over 4,000
when the battery's
working overtime.
So, give it a rev.
This baby runs
like a dream.
Try the hydraulics
real quick.
Huh.
You know what?
Try the, uh -- the headlights.
Oh! What the hell!?
Damn right,
"what the hell?"
You're welcome.
Now get this damn thing
out of here.
Take it!
Great.
Just like the last room --
another dead end.
Well, now I know
how a lab rat feels.
This place is a maze.
We'll have to double back
and find another way.
There they are!
Hey!
Oh, this just gets
better and better.
Okay, well, that lock
will hold them for a bit,
but, Mike,
Vanek sure seems motivated.
Yeah, this door won't
keep them out for long.
Why are we focused
on keeping them out?
Okay, the -- the things that
you guys have are called guns.
You point them at bad guys,
you pull the trigger,
metal projectiles
fly through the air,
burrow into their flesh.
This can't be the first time
you guys have heard this.
We can't take these guys
head-on.
Why not?
You guys have 14 bullets.
There's 11 of them.
That's mathematics,
all right?
Hey, okay, look, guys.
Here's an idea.
You come down here,
and then you hide behind
these barrels, all right?
They come in. They're like,
"oh, I guess nobody's here."
And then, "bip, bip, bip!"
Better than disco.
Oh, I see, yeah.
So, we should hide
behind these barrels?
The ones filled
with diethyl ether?
You know what that is?
That's gasoline on steroids.
A bullet hits one of these,
they're gonna be scraping us
off the ceiling.
Fine. Fine.
No gunfights.
I'm -- I'm -- I'm just saying
you guys are badasses.
Okay, yeah.
Vanek,
you son of a ***!
I'm the son of a ***?
You called the FBI on me,
you little ***.
Are you really that stupid
to think I wouldn't have friends
in the Bureau
who can give me a heads-up?
Vanek, you want to talk,
you'll talk to me.
Listen, whoever you are,
this isn't necessary.
I've got no problem with you.
I just want Schmidt.
Yeah,
that's not gonna happen.
I don't see why not.
Are you really gonna protect
some whiny little git
who hides behind his clients?
How about this --
you open the door just a crack
and shove him out.
Then we'll be on our way.
Sound good?
Not really.
I can't say I'm a big fan
of sending a guy out
to be murdered.
Well, I'm sorry
you feel that way.
Look, this only ends
one of two ways --
you hand him over, or I come
through that door and take him.
Do you understand?!
What --
what did he say?
He wants me to send you out,
or he's coming in hard.
You said no, right?
Look, Michael, I don't see
a way for us to escape.
Maybe we should consider other
options, even desperate options.
- Fi, what are you saying?
- Get me in there!
Uh, maybe we send Schmidt out
to talk to Vanek.
I mean, it was his big mouth
that got us into this.
Maybe it can get us out.
You want to send me
out there alone?!
Fi, Vanek is just
gonna kill him.
No,
he's not gonna kill me.
He's gonna torture me,
steal my business, then kill me.
All right, that is a --
that is a long, painful road
to becoming a corpse!
Well, maybe you should have
thought about that
before you called
the FBI on him.
Sam, I got an idea.
Give me a hand.
What's the hold up?
I want this door open.
This steel
is four inches thick.
Then get
a couple of the guys
and go find something
that will get the job done.
Can you manage that,
you muppet?
What are you looking at?
The ducting
for the ventilation system
runs into the next room,
doesn't it?
Yep, sure does.
Uh, I don't know
about you guys.
My mom told me
never to stick my finger
into a giant spinning fan.
If we can find a way
to short it out,
it won't be running
when we crawl through.
Okay, well, let's get
this safety grating off.
What do you got?
Ooh,
that's a big can opener!
Uh, I don't know if you can hear
what's going on out there,
but I hear a motor.
Definitely sounds
vehicle-ly.
Hey. There we go.
All right, enough standing
around. Let's get out of here.
Hey, Schmidt, let's go.
Coming, I'm coming.
Guys, move.
We're running out of time.
Let's go!
I don't know
if I bend this way.
Move, Schmidt!
Okay, Fi, you're next.
There's a backup circuit
kicking on. Hurry up!
Damn it!
Can we stop it?
Just stick something in it?
Like what?
It's an industrial vent fan.
Those things are designed
to survive a factory explosion.
Keep pulling, boys!
Bright ideas, Sam?
Well, take your pick.
We either jump through
the blades of death
or face the firing squad.
Sam, that screwdriver isn't
gonna hold them back very long.
Hey, I'll take every second
I can get.
Any luck cutting the power?
No. The fire ventilation backup
is on a different circuit.
Well, we got to stop those
blades with something heavy.
Mike, we got to jam the fan
with something
that won't get cut to bits.
Any prospects on your side?
Schmidt, grab that pallet Jack
and bring it over here.
Sam!
Sam, I think I have something.
Hold on!
Okay, make it quick 'cause
Vanek's guys are coming in.
Look, look.
Michael, Michael.
I'm really sorry, okay?
I-I didn't want this to happen.
I didn't want anyone
to get hurt or killed or --
Schmidt, save your apologies.
Right now I just need your help.
Michael,
we don't have long in here.
Fi, I think I got an idea
to buy us some time.
You think that blowtorch
has any juice?
You want to tell me
what you're doing?
Well, if Vanek thinks
by killing us
this whole room
will end up flames,
then maybe
he'll think twice.
Sam, I like playing with fire
just as much as the next girl.
But I'm not crazy about
being ankle deep in accelerant.
Yeah, well,
hope Vanek feels the same way.
For the record,
I hate this idea.
Yeah, for the record
Me, too.
Give it another go.
That's it. A little more.
Nice work, boys.
Whoa, right there!
Not another step!
What you're standing in
is highly combustible.
Well, at least according
to the warning labels.
So, that means
this torch here
is kind of
a flaming dead-man switch.
You take us out?
We're all gonna be extra crispy.
All right, clearly, we have
got off on the wrong foot.
Let's start over.
Well, you know what?
I'd love to, pal,
but my jaw isn't as forgiving.
I feel bad about that.
But it's Schmidt
you should be angry with.
Where is he?
Don't worry about it.
Think for a second
about how this day has gone
for you people.
You woke up,
you had some coffee,
maybe a nice jog in the park.
Now you're in a hole covered in
diethyl whatever-the-hell-it-is,
ready to burn yourselves alive.
Things are not
going to get better from here,
unless you go grab Schmidt
and hand me his leash.
Then we'll be out of your hair
and call it a day.
You know what?
Not interested.
Now back off!
Industrial suction fans spin
at more than 1,400 rpm
and weigh as much
as 500 pounds.
Tie this end
around the handle tight.
Trying to physically stop one
requires using
an object heavy enough
to stop its linear momentum.
Cable's tight.
What do I do now?
And if you don't want
to throw your back out,
it's best to let the fan
do most of the work for you.
Stand back.
What the hell?!
All right, Sam, let's go!
Move it!
Just 'cause
you get out of this room
doesn't mean you're home free.
We're taking one crisis
at a time.
I really
don't want to kill you,
but I'm beginning to think
that's what's best for business.
Yeah, I heard your offer.
Here's my counter.
You are not gonna like
how this ends!
Looks like
something's on fire in there.
Is that some sort of signal?
Jesse.
Mike, you guys all right
in there?
We got a little sidetracked,
but we're fine.
Are you set up outside?
Yeah, your mom and I
are behind the perimeter fence.
We're ready to swoop in
and get you guys.
My mom?
It was either
bring her with me,
or leave her
at Schmidt's unguarded.
I didn't know what to do.
Fine. We're making our way
to the rear door now.
I'll call you
as soon as we need pickup.
You got it.
Two men patrolling
the second floor.
They're camping out in case
we decide to go for a stroll.
Well, let's go stroll
somewhere else then.
There is nowhere else.
That door is our only way out.
We'll run to it
as fast as we can.
We don't stop,
and we stay low.
Running? That's the whole plan,
is running?
There's gonna be bullets flying!
I can't outrun bullets.
Look, why don't you guys go up,
take them out,
and then come back
and get me?
Oh, I'll be sure
to come back for you.
Schmidt, enough complaining.
We got to move.
Look, I'm more of
a "watch and learn" kind of guy.
Why don't you guys go first?
Okay,
it looks like we're clear.
God damn it!
The tough thing about
going up against
someone carrying
a machine pistol
is that they fire
over 1,000 rounds a minute.
The good news is
that they're notoriously
inaccurate at long distances,
so if you keep moving,
you've got a pretty good chance
of making it out in one piece.
If you stop, on the other hand,
you're bound to catch a bullet.
Oh, God, oh, God!
Aah! Aah!
I'm hit! I'm hit!
Oh, damn it,
Schmidt's pinned down.
They're at the southeast door.
We have to get out of here before
Vanek's men catch up to us.
I'll grab him.
What part of "keep running"
did you not understand?!
I'm gonna bleed out!
You got grazed, Schmidt!
You'll bleed out
in about two weeks.
Yeah, if I get shot again,
I'll bleed out a lot quicker!
Oh, this is not good.
This is not good at all.
I got to call him.
Do you want to hide behind
a box of splinters,
or do you
want to try this again?
On three.
Sam, do not make a move.
Why? We're just about
to run out of here.
You can't! Vanek's guys
are right outside the door!
Are you saying we're cut off?
You run out now, it's gonna be
a blood bath. Don't do it.
Son of a ***.
Sam, what's wrong?
We missed our window.
Vanek's got us boxed in.
They have every angle covered.
There's no way we can get
to Jesse without a massacre.
We need another exit.
Well, we take 20 steps
into that factory floor,
we get shot
by the guy upstairs.
Past that, we got to backtrack
through the lake of fire.
I mean, we're stuck
where we stand.
But we've got
half a clip between us.
I hate to repeat myself, but
Schmidt needs to go out there
and work this out
with Vanek.
of working anything out.
Fi, we are not handing him over
to be killed.
We are all about to get killed.
This is his mess, not ours.
He should be the one
to clean it up.
If Schmidt goes out there and he
can't talk his way out of it --
Look, I can't believe
we're even talking about this!
Schmidt just helped us
get through that giant blender
back there!
We are all in this
together.
No, he betrayed us! Who's to say
he's not gonna do it again?
That's not the point!
Since when do we send people
to their death
to save our own ***?
Look out the window.
There's your answer!
Well,
I don't know about you,
but this is not something
I can live with.
Look, Jesse's not far.
I say we just take
all the extra bullets we have,
use them for cover fire,
and make a run for it.
I like that plan better.
Yeah,
that plan is suicide, Sam.
Michael --
Wait, wait, wait.
It's Vanek. It's Vanek.
Vanek, for a guy
who's not trying to kill me,
your buddies
are pretty trigger-happy.
If I have to send you to
your grave to get what I want,
then it's what
I'm gonna do.
Look, listen to me.
Schmidt is --
No,
I'm done listening.
I'm the one who's got you
surrounded and outgunned,
so I get to do the talking.
Then talk.
Schmidt told you those passport
chips were untraceable, right?
Yeah.
Did he also mention
my little fail-safe?
Because Schmidt knows that I tag
every chip that I sell
so I can track them later.
A little insurance
in case I get caught.
Trading the location
of fugitives can be worth a lot.
So when Schmidt sent the Feds
after me,
he was sending them
after you, too.
Now, here's my last offer --
you give Schmidt up
and I will get you out
of the country myself.
Or you can stay in there
and die with him.
It's your call.
You have five minutes
to think it over.
I'm standing my men down.
What did he say?
Nothing new.
Now what?
I saw some crates with acetone
and chemicals on the factory floor.
Maybe we can put something together
and blow through one of these walls.
Okay, that sounds pretty
promising. Fi, let's check it out.
I'll call Jesse,
fill him in.
When you're in the field,
the goal is usually to be
in complete communication
with your team to work
in perfect sync at all times.
Aah!
But when the weight
of a mission
threatens to tear
your team apart,
there are times
when you're forced
to mislead even the people
you're closest to
What the hell
was Michael talking about?
There's nothing
but rubber gaskets here.
There's nothing useful here,
either.
because
the toughest decisions
are the ones you have to make
all by yourself.
On your feet!
What? What? Oh, God!
No! No! No! No!
Schmidt!
No! No!
Oh, Jesus.
Mike, what the hell
are you doing?!
Listen, you can't do this, man.
This isn't who you are.
Just keep walking.
You're just gonna hand me
to Vanek and walk away?
You sound surprised, Schmidt.
You put the FBI on our trail.
No! No! I would never --
I would never do that!
You know damn well
if the Feds grabbed Vanek,
they would have tracked us
all down.
I thought
you would be okay.
If anyone knows how to stay
off the grid, it's a spy!
Look, I-I-I didn't want anyone
to get hurt.
This isn't personal!
Neither is this.
Oh, God!
Hey, think about
what Sam said,
how he couldn't
live with himself --
Yeah,
that's why Sam is inside
and I'm the only one
who has to live with this.
Smart move.
Send Schmidt over,
and we can all go home.
Yeah, not so fast.
I have a few conditions.
I don't think you're in
a position to make demands.
You want
what's inside his head?
Does that still work
if there's a hole in it?
No! No! Please! Don't!
Don't! Don't! Don't! Don't!
Shut up!
Now back off!
I want a clear path!
I want your men
to lower their weapons slowly.
Back away behind the gate.
When you're there,
I will send Schmidt over,
and then my friends and I,
we get to leave.
Listen, listen, listen.
I messed up, okay?
I messed up.
I'm sorry.
But just give me another chance,
please. I was a selfish ***.
Shut up!
Come on, Vanek.
It's not that hard.
You want his business
or not?
What's it gonna be,
Vanek?
Fine. Deal.
Everybody, fall back!
Come on!
What is Michael doing?
I have no idea.
I can't believe
you talked him into doing this.
I didn't talk him
into anything.
It was the only option,
and you know it.
Yeah, well, leaving a man behind
should never be an option.
How are we supposed to help?
We can't.
We go in now, the bad guys
will see us coming a mile away.
Keep moving!
So we're supposed to
just sit here?
Yeah. I don't like it either,
but yeah.
All right,
send the little *** over.
All the way back, Vanek!
Behind the gate!
Look, send him towards us.
Show me a bit of good faith
here.
Keep moving!
I'm gonna send him over.
You try anything, I put a bullet
in the back of his head.
Are we clear?
Walk.
Michael, Michael,
I'll give you anything.
I'll give you anything,
okay?
Walk!
Aah!
Don't worry!
It's gonna be fun,
***.
A little alone time is just
what our relationship needs.
If you need to make
a clean exit,
putting
an electrical transformer
between you and your enemy
will help make sure
there won't be a firefight.
All it takes is one bullet
to disrupt
the sensitive electronics
and create
an explosive power surge.
Schmidt.
I'm walking as fast as I can!
Duck.
Of course,
sometimes an explosive power
surge is exactly what you need.
Yeah, baby!
That's our cue, Maddy.
That's our ride.
Am I dead?
Not yet.
You had me going there,
brother.
Nice shot, Michael.
I'm just glad it worked.
Come on, get up!
Shoot them!
Someone's thirsty.
Yeah, well, I was nearly
chopped to bits,
almost blown up,
and was shot today.
It's a five-drink minimum
to calm the nerves.
Do you want one?
No, I need to know
if the passports can still
get us out of the country.
Let me -- let me ask you
something first.
Schmidt --
just
You knew that Vanek
wanted to torture me,
kill me,
torture me some more.
So, were you -- were you
really gonna hand me over
to that animal?
I needed you
to think I was.
Vanek had to see real fear
in your eyes,
otherwise he wouldn't
move his men
over towards
the transformer.
Wow. Really?
I'm not saying
it wasn't a long shot.
What you're saying
is that you have X-ray vision.
Because there's no way
you could have known
that that transformer was there
when you marched me out.
If it wasn't
the transformer,
it would have been
something else.
I needed to make an opening
for Jesse to get his truck in.
You can say all that
with a straight face.
Wow. You're good.
You're good.
Is that
the same load of crap
that you shovel down
your team's throat?
All anyone needs to know is
that I didn't want you to die,
and you didn't die.
Schmidt. The passports.
Are -- they're good.
They're good.
But I wouldn't, uh,
sit on them for too long.
If Vanek gets swept up
by the Feds,
they're gonna become
radioactive.
I-I got a -- I got a guy in --
in Morocco that can set a new --
I'd prefer not to work
with your associates.
No offense.
I'm sure once you get set up
in Argentina,
you can use your voodoo magic
to lay low.
You should go somewhere,
too.
Yeah, no kidding.
I'm -- I'm -- I'm gonna, uh,
blow this hellhole tonight.
Um, feel -- feel free to use
the house, uh, until you leave.
It's a -- think of it as
a "I'm sorry" gift.
Where do you think
you'll go?
Find a globe, you know?
What-- whatever side of it
you're on,
I'm gonna be on
the opposite side, you know.
You -- you saved my life,
and I'm thankful.
But I get the feeling
I-if I hang out with you
much longer,
my luck's gonna run out.
You take care of yourself,
Schmidt.
We got a problem, Mike.
One of the cars is missing,
and I can't find your mom.
What? Where'd she go?
I have
a pretty good idea.
You can spare me
the lecture.
Jesse already told me
it's too risky to come here.
But I had to.
It's okay.
You needed
to say goodbye.
If the CIA were here,
they'd have moved in already.
After you left home,
Nate promised
to take me away from Miami.
He was such a big dreamer,
you know.
He wanted to go to --
walk the pyramids
and ski the Alps.
He just wanted to go
so badly.
Anyway, it just doesn't seem
right leaving him here alone.
He wanted to take you
to a better place, Ma.
He wanted you safe.
He wanted you
to smile again.
Let me keep that promise.
I owe it to you
and to Nate.
That's pretty flowers.
I didn't bring them.
A friend of Nate's
must have come by earlier.
Hey, mom, will you give me
a minute alone?
I'll be right behind you.
Sure.
Take your time.
