Strike Back

The Yakuza shipment for Mei is vanadium.

Use the missile technology.

We'll be facing a rogue state with a million-man army

able to launch a nuclear strike at a moment's notice.

The exchange can't be delayed.

Section 20?

They were grasping at straws.

Damien, Damien, Damien!

I've got to find some transport and get back to my team.

Bravo One. Have you got eyes on the metal yet?

No, that's a negative.

The vanadium has to be in the trucks, pursue.

You're too late.

All this noise, the gunfire. Nothing more than smoke and mirrors.

In a few hours, the vanadium will be in North Korea

and all that you did will be for nothing.

I guess I'll see you in another 16 years or so.

Look, kid, I got a job to do.

In case you haven't noticed,

there's a lot of shit going on around here.

Look.

If you want to hang out at the hotel for a while...

you can.

I'll be back in a couple of days.

Yeah.

Yeah, if you're sure.

Come on.

There. Yeah.

Your point of entry

is here, just over the border.

Groups of Russian construction workers are bussed in daily to

help with the new rail line.

A foreman is being paid off to smuggle both you

and the C-4 into North Korea.

What did he say?

He said you have a very pretty mouth

and he'd love to buy you a drink sometime.

'We can't risk the metal detectors picking up

'the blasting caps and weapons.

'So you'll be getting them' once you are inside the country.

'So, what we do, walk into Best Buy and pick some shit up?'

Nope.

You'll meet up with our MI6 contact outside Pyongyang.

We got someone in North Korea?

Your contact is Mr Park. He'll provide you with what you need.

Find out where Mei's taken the vanadium...

..and dispose of it.

In other words...

Blow it the hell up.

Easy for you to say.

Someone spots us once in a country like that...

Another pair of dog tags to add to the pile.

Exfil is set for 72 hours once you cross the border.

The longer you spend out there, the greater the risk of discovery.

If you are captured,

it would be construed as an act of war on our part.

There is nothing we can do.

You're on your own.

Step forward.

Welcome to North Korea.

Welcome home, child.

It's been a long time.

Not much has changed since we trained here.

This was your desk.

This was mine.

I am to be your liaison.

To facilitate your transition back to life here.

My liaison, huh?

The Party wants you to watch me

to make sure that I haven't been infected by my time in the West.

Some things don't change.

Be careful, Yoon Soo.

Don't get too close.

Or you might catch something.

I did worry...

..that you would be different.

It's been a long time.

And we are both different.

Mr Park? Were you followed? No.

We're professionals.

Wait right here.

When do I get out? I've told them, I can't do this any more.

Mr Park... They don't understand this place.

Can't trust anybody.

Neighbours. Even family.

Take pills. Two, three before bed.

Just to make sure I don't talk in my sleep. Yeah, we get it.

You can trust us, there is no need to worry.

It has all been arranged. You help us, we'll help you.

Three days ago, I noticed troop transfer request.

Increased patrols around North Hamgyong Province,

iron and steel complex.

What, you think our target is headed there? Yes, I think that.

That is why I am telling you this.

Our intel said you may have some equipment for us as well.

So...

How are The Beatles? Oh, they're great.

John, Paul, George and that other guy.

Yeah, they are still going strong.

I love their Christmas album.

Look at that.

1979 called and wants its gun back.

Hey, hey.

Hey, boss, it's me.

'You hear me?'

Loud and clear, Michael. 'We made it through.'

We've got the blasting caps.

We've also got a location.

North Hamgyong, iron and steel.

We've got maps as well, but they're a bit dated.

I'll try and source you some more recent ones.

Roger that.

He's my son.

Bravo One, sitrep.

Anything?

You've got to get him back.

Fuck!

Fuck! Fuck!

How many? A lot.

That many?

Come on, come on!

Come on, let's go!

Come on, let's go. Come on, come on!

Scott!

Scott, the window!

Huh? All right, let's go!

Fuck!

Oi!

Sorry, kid.

Shit.

Come on. How's that phone coming along?

Fuck, dude.

No phoning home with that one, Mikey.

There you go.

Brilliant.

We've lost our comms and we've been compromised.

Aborting the mission is an option.

No fucking way. Ha!

Which we have discussed maturely.

And both agreed on.

Thank you.

All right. Let's set a course across country for North Hamgyong Province.

Bearing in mind, if we're caught,

the best we can hope for is to be tortured, thrown in the gulags.

Not to mention the international repercussions for our little

act of terrorism.

You finished now?

Yeah.

Your motivational speech needs a bit of work, Mikey.

There's 40 clicks of hostile terrain between here and there,

plenty of time to work on it.

Let's go. I don't want to keep that bitch waiting.

Hey...

What?

Just so you know... Yeah?

Even if you stick a bullet between her eyes...

it's not going to bring Julia back.

I know.

Let's go.

Third patroller in an hour, bud.

Our luck's not going to hold out.

Maybe it has something to do with the fact that

we're laying in a graveyard.

We're clear, let's move.

The government forces people to work even though there's no wages.

If there's no wages, there's no food on the table.

No food on the table, you end up burying the dead on a hillside.

They save their money for the fucking nukes, dude.

It's a policy called Songun.

It means military first, no matter what.

Sounds perfect for you. You should move here.

Even I have my limits, mate.

We have a patrol searching for Section 20. They won't get far.

You have no idea what 20 are capable of.

We need to consider moving production.

That's not an option.

To delay now would be a catastrophic loss of face for those

in the regime who supported this programme.

Then we need to double the number of troops guarding the plant.

This is my life's work,

and I will not let them ruin it.

So find a way to work within the system.

There is a contingency plan I wish to put into place,

to nullify the threat.

Very well.

Carry on.

Kim. Yeah, it's Finn.

Yeah, I'm just getting some food. You want anything?

All right, we got...

Fish on a stick.

There's chicken.

Just one... Yeah.

OK, two. Two.

I'll catch you later, Kim.

All right. How much?

No, I gave you 20.

I gave you 20. All right, thank you.

Hey, you.

You British?

American.
