Mom! Let's go!
What're you doing?
Kara, this is crazy. Why can't you tell me what's going on?
- Where's the diaper bag? - I don't know. I thought you had it.
(CAR HORN HONKING)
That's Jed. Let's go.
Okay. I'm going.
- DEBBIE: Hi, sweetheart. - Hi. Hi, Sarah.
DEBBIE: Here, take this.
Thanks.
KARA: You got gas, supplies?
I filled up on the way over. I need to know what's going on here, Kara.
Does this have something to do with my dad?
Look, your dad is still in Asia, sweetheart.
In Hong Kong?
I'll explain everything at another time.
DEBBIE: Okay. Ready.
Got my sat phone if you need me.
Call me.
(FRANKIE COOING)
KARA: (SHUSHING) Sweetheart. ASHLEY: It's okay. We got him.
(FRANKIE CRYING)
I'll call you as soon as I can.
Be careful.
Start over there. Whatever patients need one.
Here. Take this to the medic, he'll give you further instructions.
Sasha, I need a IV bag over here.
We're all out, Doc.
How're you doing?
You'll be okay.
Welcome back, buddy.
Get through with this. You understand?
Sir.
It's time.
(METALLIC CREAKING)
I was a plank holder.
Did you know that?
No.
I don't believe I did.
MEYLAN: I watched her being built.
Those my windows?
CHANDLER: Yeah, we took everything we could use.
Like donating a kid's eyes after a car crash.
Teams cleared the vessel.
Charges have been set and rigged
to ensure maximum damage to any sensitive technical equipment.
Ready to proceed.
Captain Meylan, switch is on.
Ah, thank you,
Captain Slattery.
(CLEARS THROAT SOFTLY)
(BEEPING)
(THEME MUSIC PLAYING)
So, the plan is just to hold position until Peng rears his head?
Obviously, that's impossible.
Now that search-and-rescue is complete, we need to keep moving.
Then what's on the table?
We're exploring several potential options. But we...
MEYLAN: Options?
There's only one option I can see.
We need to go home.
Not that simple, Captain.
ALISHA: Excuse me, Captain.
CCS intercepted these communications from the Chinese destroyer, Sea Dragon.
No one sunk?
It's all coded.
Yes, but it's likely that cipher is still aboard the vessel.
- At the bottom of the South China Sea? - Yes, sir.
If we could send a team down to retrieve the...
Oh, come on.
This is ridiculous.
Sir.
Peng could be anywhere right now.
We don't have the fuel to wait him out.
Our medical stocks are depleted
and in 72 hours, we won't be able to feed our people.
We'll find replenishments, we always do.
As I understand it, you've already shut down Peng's factory.
You've cut off his smuggling operation
and destroyed the ship carrying the last of his chemical weapons.
What more is there?
As long as Peng is breathing,
he's a threat to the region and to the world.
We don't stop him,
he'll just set up a new factory and start the genocide all over again.
Say we could get a lock on his position.
The man still has two destroyers that we know of.
And most likely a sizeable army.
We've already lost Hayward and Shackleton.
Along with the lives of 300 American sailors.
Even if we could take down Peng,
who's to say someone else won't rise up and take his place
the minute we leave the region?
I'm sure I don't have to remind you
but there are a lot of other people in this world
who could use our help.
And we are wasting our resources
fighting what might be an unwinnable battle
10,000 miles away from home.
We need to finish the job we were sent here to do.
That means cutting the head off the snake.
This mission was approved by the Commander-in-Chief.
But the circumstances have changed.
We need to talk this over with the President.
We're at EMCON, Captain.
Until I can be assured that we have a secure line home,
nothing changes.
Have Lieutenant Green form a dive team.
Search that destroyer.
Find this cipher.
ALISHA: Yes, sir. Thank you, sir.
Thank you all for waiting.
This morning, I signed Executive Order 10842.
This order eases restrictions on the federal ration card mandate,
provides more local control over banking issues,
and temporarily suspends the private property claw back regulations
as set forth by my predecessor.
REPORTERS: Mr. President...
Details can be found in your briefing packets
regarding the affected territories.
Where's Mrs. Green?
- OLIVER: In addition... - I don't know.
I've promoted the Army National Guard to active status,
and placed them under the control of local leadership
in a bid to quell continued riots in the five territories.
Mr. President, Mr. President,
you've been in office for 48 hours now.
How do you account for the immediate rollback of President Michener's policies?
How do I account for it?
I'm sorry, but the President will not be taking any questions today.
Thank you, sir.
REPORTERS: Mr. President...
Please.
Mr. President, can you answer anything, Mr. President?
Ms. Shaw, there's been conjecture
that President Oliver's political sensibilities lie to the...
I don't comment on conjecture.
Can you tell us if we can expect a further shift in agenda from this White House?
President Oliver is his own man.
But the agenda remains the same.
Building a stronger and better America.
On that note and due to the President's increasingly demanding schedule,
we'll be discontinuing these daily addresses
and replacing them with weekly briefings
administered by my office.
- Ms. Shaw... - Thank you very much.
- That's all today. - Ms. Shaw...
REPORTER 1: Allison. REPORTER 2: Ms. Shaw.
Uh, call for you. On Two?
When did we get a second line?
Allison Shaw.
KARA: Allison, it's Kara.
Kara, where are you? We've been calling you all morning.
I'm in trouble.
I need your help.
ALLISON: What's wrong?
Rivera's dead.
Dead?
And Senator Beatty.
They were shot in the Capitol parking garage last night.
Oh, my God. There's no...
There're no reports. Are you sure about this?
I was there. I saw it.
I've been wandering around all night. I don't know what to do.
Where are you right now?
It's all right. You're gonna be okay.
I'll send someone to come get you.
No.
I think we have a mole.
Inside the White House.
And until we find them, there's no one I can trust except you.
You need to come alone.
Okay. Just me. Tell me where you are right now.
S & W Diner.
On Fifth.
Hold tight. I'll be right there.
WAITRESS: Doing all right?
(TIRES SCREECHING)
WAITRESS: Sure. One second.
(HELICOPTER BLADES WHIRRING)
SLATTERY: Need a favor.
My team went diving for an item we think was on the Chinese destroyer.
Seems some pirates got to it first.
You told me you still had some people out there.
Yes.
You know of any way to get a message to 'em?
Might help us find Peng.
Yes.
I will try.
Sir, my crew has had a couple run-ins with these pirates.
In fact, two of my sailors were gravely wounded during a...
You don't need to remind me what they're capable of.
We don't always get to choose our allies.
So, we're willing to do anything?
Get in bed with anyone?
Like I said, we're gonna finish the job.
With all due respect, sir...
Usually when someone says, "All due respect,"
he is about to show lack of respect, Captain.
I understand the damage that Peng has done.
That he is responsible for a lot of loss to your crew.
And that he even tried to kill you.
And you think this is personal for me.
I've lost a third of my crew.
And I'm willing to walk away if that's what's for the greater good.
- Hmm. - And I get the feeling
there are other people in your senior leadership who feel the same way.
Sometimes, a captain has to make the unpopular call
because that's his responsibility.
Someday, I hope you understand that.
Now,
all due respect,
I have things to do.
Thank you, sir.
Are you sure you have the right diner?
Okay. Yes.
All right. No, just head back. I have something else for you.
Guess our Mrs. Green isn't just a pretty face after all.
It appears that way.
How much has she figured out?
It doesn't matter. She can't prove any of it.
And when're you gonna release the news about Beatty and Rivera?
I will leak it sometime tonight.
I didn't want it convoluting this morning's press conference.
Well.
We need to start corralling the herd.
And if Chandler makes it home to rally the troops,
all of our lives become much more difficult.
I told you that I am dealing with it.
You've been saying that for two weeks now.
Everybody's getting impatient.
I have done more than my part, Roberta.
And let us not forget
that none of you would even have a seat at this table
if it wasn't for me.
Don't fool yourself, dear.
You may have set the table,
but we're paying for the groceries.
And we're cooking the meal.
Let's not forget that.
(PIRATES SPEAKING IN OTHER LANGUAGE)
(SPEAKING IN OTHER LANGUAGE)
Did you find the decoder?
(TRANSLATING)
(SPEAKING IN OTHER LANGUAGE)
SASHA: He's saying that was only a finder's fee.
If you wanna purchase the cipher, it's gonna cost double the rations.
We barely have enough food to feed our own crew.
It's not gonna work for us.
TAKEHAYA: Please. Let me talk to him.
(SPEAKING IN OTHER LANGUAGE)
CHANDLER: What'd he say?
Lau Hu killed Shirahama's brother.
(SPEAKING IN OTHER LANGUAGE)
- SASHA: He said... - I got it.
(SPEAKING IN OTHER LANGUAGE)
You have a deal at the original price.
(DOOR OPENING)
Sir, I have an order here for your signature.
No one in their right mind would sign this.
This isn't a negotiation, Howard.
It's "Mr. President."
And I'm not gonna stand by while you destroy this country.
I don't care if you kill me.
But I'm done taking orders.
We can't kill you, sir.
But I will remind you that we can kill your family.
It was only five months ago.
We had a plan.
A good plan, and it worked.
We cured a whole country.
What the hell happened to that? How did we get to this?
There are forces at work here.
And they are bigger than me.
And they are bigger than you.
And they're stretched all the way across the Pacific
where you're exterminating whole races of people.
We had no idea what Peng was planning to do.
All we needed was his help to get rid of Chandler.
The landscape of this country is changing
and there is nothing that anyone can do to stop it.
I am still the President of the United States.
And I can stop it.
We can stop it.
It can't be too late, Allison.
ALLISON: (SOFTLY) Sign it.
Mr. President.
MAN: Give 'em this.
(INAUDIBLE)
GATOR: Passive radar is clear, sir. No sign of the Chinese.
How's the temperature below deck?
Considering the circumstances, call it a low simmer.
New kid thinks my motivations might not be completely impartial.
New kid's had a rough day.
He'll buck up.
What do you think?
Do you believe this is personal for me?
At this point, sir,
it's personal for all of us.
ALISHA: Sir.
The cipher the pirates found checked out.
So far we've isolated two direct communications
between the Sea Dragon destroyer and Peng.
Can we pinpoint his location in China?
That's just it, sir.
He's not in China.
He's mobilized his remaining destroyers off the coast of Tokyo.
And the latest intel suggests he's aboard one of those destroyers.
(KNOCKING ON DOOR)
Hey.
Are you alone?
I... Yeah.
Shut the door.
Is our relationship about to change?
Alex Rivera and Senator Beatty are dead.
What?
I thought Rivera was leaking information to Peng, so I followed him.
He was meeting with Beatty
when they were both gunned down by the Secret Service.
Gunned down?
I found pictures of troop readiness reports on Rivera's phone.
I need to know why he was bringing these to Beatty.
I need to know what they were into.
- What they were planning. - Okay, slow down.
It was an inside job.
And Shaw was part of it.
I don't know who I can trust.
But your press credentials still get you access to the White House.
So, you want me to break into Senator Beatty's office,
after he was just murdered by the Secret Service,
along with the Secretary of Foreign Affairs.
And I think they killed the President, too.
What?
And I know for a fact the Chief of Staff was in on it.
And that she's been double-dealing with Peng.
Please. Jacob.
Just get into Beatty's office.
I know there's something there.
(BEEPS)
XO?
We have a top secret SCI communication coming from central command.
It's double encrypted.
Put it through a first-stage decrypt and print it out.
Aye, ma'am.
First stage decrypt commencing.
(GROANING)
MEYLAN: There's got to be something more you can give him.
Sorry, sir. Doing the best I can with the ice.
Oh, God.
We got a lot of guys in worse shape than him.
It's okay, sir.
I'm all right.
GARNETT: Captain Meylan?
A message for you from central command.
First stage decrypted. It's now in command code.
Thank you, Commander.
Captain Chandler.
Captain Meylan.
Something on your mind?
I have a flash order from the Commander-in-Chief
to place you under arrest, relieve Captain Slattery of his command,
and take Nathan James back to San Diego.
What the hell did you say?
"Illegal incursion into the sovereign territory of a foreign country."
"Attempted murder of a foreign leader."
"Destroying a non-combative foreign vessel."
"Dereliction of duty."
Ah, this is bullshit.
MEYLAN: You can verify it if you like.
Mike, you realize what this means?
White House has been compromised.
That's how Peng kept getting our coordinates?
It's more than that.
My plane exploding, you guys getting ambushed,
Michener...
You're saying he didn't kill himself? We had a coup?
I talked to Oliver 24 hours ago.
He said we had his full support and now this?
Code is accurate, sir.
Order like this comes through fleet command
addressed to our XO, not you.
Everything about this stinks, we can't follow it.
It's not our place to question a confirmed order from the Commander-in-Chief.
But my guess
is that POTUS has lost faith in your senior command,
which is a hell of a lot more plausible than your paranoid conspiracy theories.
Well, let's get the President on the phone. We'll talk to him...
Can't do that, Captain.
Like you said, we're at EMCON.
It won't matter.
Not if Oliver's in on it.
MEYLAN: If you're so worried about what's goin' on back home,
all the more reason we should head that way.
We'll sort it out there.
You don't understand.
We're not gonna make it home alive.
The person who sent you those orders
is the same person who just destroyed your ship.
We'll get sunk before we hit Pearl Harbor.
Yeah, you heard those charges. They're absurd.
From what I've seen in my short time on this ship,
these charges don't surprise me one bit.
But it's not about what I think.
- Master-at-Arms Plummer? - Yes, sir.
Please remand Captain Chandler into custody.
Stand down.
I'll comply with the order.
Need you to keep the peace right now.
I'll be counting on you, Captain.
PLUMMER: Sir.
Lieutenant Granderson, Lieutenant Mejia,
you're relieved of duty, please exit the pilot house.
MEYLAN: XO Cobb. COBB: Yes, sir.
Arrest those men stealing our food.
Yes, sir.
MEYLAN: Set a course for Pearl Harbor,
where we will refuel and continue directly on towards San Diego.
Aye, sir.
I've already sequestered Green, Burk and Taylor.
So, don't think about doing anything stupid.
SLATTERY: Not a good idea.
You are relieved, Captain Slattery.
Yes, I am.
But if you get on that mic and you tell the crew
that you've arrested Tom Chandler,
and you've taken control of the Nathan James,
you're gonna have to sequester a lot more than just those three guys.
That's a course we don't come back from.
Attention, all hands.
This is Captain Mike Slattery.
Effective immediately, by order of the Commander-in-Chief,
Captain Tom Chandler has been relieved of duty and placed under arrest.
Per that same order, I have been relieved of duty,
and Captain Joe Meylan has taken command of the ship.
MAN: Come on, let's go. Keep moving.
Now.
SLATTERY: I expect every member of this crew
to perform their duties with the professionalism
and determination customary to this ship.
This is Captain Slattery.
That is all.
The Chief of Naval Operations asked to see me.
I understand your captain was kind enough to grant me 10 minutes.
Ten minutes.
Tom, what the hell is going on?
I want to ask you for a court-martial.
You'll be my legal counsel.
What?
Meylan will have to impanel a court.
He is not permitted to sit in judgment over a superior officer.
So, I'll have to hand in my commission. (SIGHS)
SASHA: You'll never win.
He'll stack the court with his top people.
Good. Let him.
Tom, he could put you in front of a firing squad.
Hasn't been a military execution in the US since '61.
Stop being cute.
We're pawns in a bigger game.
I don't know what it is yet, but I know this.
If we go home, whoever's behind this, they'll kill us all.
I need to retake command of the ship.
There's a way out of this.
But technically it involves me committing treason.
So, if you want nothing to do with it, I'll understand.
Tell me the goddamn plan.
Credentials, sir.
Okay.
Tightening up security around here, huh?
Yes, sir.
Can I help you?
No.
I was just looking for the Senator.
He's out of town this week.
Oh. Must've got my dates crossed. Thanks.
I still can't find any record of a conversation
between Chandler and Michener regarding the break-in to Peng's mansion.
I asked Granderson.
She says it doesn't exist.
What a mess.
(DOOR CLOSING)
Secret Service were cleaning up Beatty's office.
They beat us to the punch.
Oh, damn it.
I was pretty sure you weren't crazy, but...
With Oliver reversing Michener's policies,
Shaw hijacking his press conference and now this,
something's going on.
I didn't want to have to do this.
Do what?
There's one person at the White House I can trust.
I didn't want to put him at risk.
Didn't mind putting me at risk.
(TELEPHONE RINGING)
This is Dennis.
Don't react. Don't look up.
Shaw's the leak.
I don't know who else is in on it, but I need you to do something for me.
That's a lot of moving parts, sir.
- We'll get it done. - Unfriendly on your nine.
What's this?
Adding everything we can to the ration pile, sir.
Thank you, gentlemen.
Can I speak with you?
Yeah, sure.
Captain,
me and my team have been over every file, every log,
and deposed every key member of your crew.
And I can tell you with certainty
that Tom Chandler cannot mount a proper defense
with the evidence available to him on this ship.
You need to get him to reconsider.
Back when the plague broke, he refused a presidential order to return home.
Didn't have any information, didn't have any facts,
didn't know what the hell was going on.
But we survived at sea, we found the cure because of his instincts.
Isn't it possible his instincts are right again?
I'm not saying he shouldn't refute the charges.
But to do it here, under these circumstances...
Circumstances don't add up. Come on.
Order from the Commander-in-Chief comes out of the blue
for you to break the chain of command and arrest the head of the Navy,
just after we've been attacked by the Chinese?
You're smarter than that, Captain.
It's not about...
I don't have a choice here.
Oh, we always have a choice.
To be clear,
I'm not saying exoneration is unlikely.
I'm saying it's impossible.
Well, then I can't help you.
He's gonna want his day in court,
and you're gonna have to give it to him.
(KNOCKING ON DOOR)
Hey. Hey.
Did you get a message to the James?
It's gonna be almost impossible.
Shaw's upped security in the whole building.
JACOB: What about Oliver? You think he's in all of this?
It's hard to tell. The guy barely ever leaves his office.
May I?
So, I got Beatty's calendars.
Some projects he was working on for Michener.
I had to do some decryption work,
but I found this one file tucked away in a hidden folder.
What are we looking at here?
Red dots, sharp borders between regions. These guys are staking their claim.
I gotta get back to the office.
- Dennis. - Yeah.
- I'll get a message out to the James. - That's not what I was gonna say.
Just be careful.
Yeah.
- Just doesn't make any sense. - I heard that.
This new President has been in office for what? A day?
I mean, what the hell is really going on here?
It's like some animal kingdom shit. Marking his territory, you know?
MILLER: Yeah, good luck with that.
Chandler's basically American royalty at this point.
He should just get a free pass for life.
What's that mean?
Hmm?
- Pass? What's he need a pass for? - Nothing.
- No, I was just saying. - He didn't do anything wrong.
He doesn't need a damn pass especially from a grunt like you.
- Whoa! Chill, Eric. - It's PO2, Blivit.
You know what I mean. Hey, I was eating that!
You've been complaining since you got here and I'm sick of it.
How about showing a little god damn gratitude?
- Gratitude? - Yeah!
For pulling you and all your helpless little buddies out of the drink.
Hey! Who you calling helpless?
We wouldn't have even been there if you pussies hadn't called us for help.
Did you just call me a pussy?
- Hey, back off him. - You back off!
Come here!
MAN: Come on, knock it off!
COBB: (OVER INTERCOM) Master-at-Arms, Master-at-Arms,
report to mess deck immediately.
Stand down!
Break it up!
Hey! Hey! Hey!
Straight up, all of y'all break it up...
Break it up! Break it up!
We're on the same side, you assholes! Break it up!
(GRUNTING) Break it up!
Stand down! Stand down!
- Simple times, huh? - (PANTING) Yes, sir.
What the hell is the matter with you?
What the hell are they...
They're stockpiling supplies in all these warehouses.
- Food? - Food, medicine.
They're in such remote areas.
I mean, Colwyn Bay, population's under 500.
But according to this, they got enough food in the warehouse there
to feed thousands of people for six months.
Isn't there a red dot near Colwyn Bay?
Yeah, there is.
Looks like some of these other warehouses line up, too,
maybe that's what the dots are.
No. The dots are prisons.
Check them out.
- Benton, Arkansas. - Yup.
Bismarck, North Dakota. Big Spring, Texas.
Yup and yup.
Forty-six prisons for a population our size.
All maximum security.
They're spread out evenly in the territories.
They're controlling the troops.
Hoarding the food and expecting people to resist.
Beatty must have been getting cold feet.
That's why he didn't go to the funeral, that's why he was trying to get to Rivera.
(DOOR CRASHING OPEN)
KARA: Shit!
- (SILENCED GUNSHOTS) - (JACOB GROANS)
Gentleman, I need to depose these witnesses.
Sorry, ma'am. No one in or out. Orders from Captain Meylan.
I don't have time for this.
You're interfering with official Navy proceeding...
- What's going on here? - I'm sorry, ma'am.
But we got orders from Captain Meylan...
(COUGHING)
- Finally. - On your knees.
Okay, boys. Not a lot of time to discuss the ramifications, here.
I will say upfront,
if we do this strat-fire only.
You want us to take back a ship without loaded weapons.
Oh, Hayward's crew won't fire on us. They don't want blue on blue either.
I appreciate what I'm asking.
I think history will side with us when the President's orders are proven unlawful.
Sorry about this, boys.
Well, if we don't have bullets, we're gonna need more guns, captain.
Way ahead of you.
Take a seat, please.
Captain Chandler, before we begin,
you're entitled to make an opening statement.
I spent half my life in the Navy.
Like you, I did everything right.
Worked my way through the pipeline just to get my chance to lead.
Nathan James is my first command.
Suddenly, I was thrust into a situation that no one can prepare you for.
World was turned upside down.
All the rules were thrown out.
But, the Navy taught me many things.
Most importantly, taught me to adapt.
I had to make some difficult decisions.
God knows I made some mistakes.
But never once did I waver from what I knew to be right.
The core values that run through all of our veins.
Honor.
Courage.
Commitment.
I serve my sailors as they serve me.
Get down! Drop your weapon!
As we all serve this great country of ours.
I didn't ask for this.
I could have taken this uniform off at any time.
But I always believed in the work that we were doing as a team.
And the decisions that I was making as a captain.
And though my tactics changed to address an insane world,
my resolve and my dedication to the Navy never faltered.
I stand by my record.
(SPEAKING IN OTHER LANGUAGE)
PIRATE: Put your hands up.
What the hell is this?
MEYLAN: I see.
This was never about your guilt or innocence.
You forced our hand here, Captain.
There was a moment today,
where I actually had my doubts.
Thank you for removing those for me.
When the chips fall,
if I'm proven wrong, I'll face justice from a higher power than you.
Cooper, Green. Please remove the officers and sequester them in helo bay two.
Gladly.
Captain, I need you to set a new course for Japan.
- SLATTERY: Yes, sir. - Let's go. On your feet.
MAN: (ON RADIO) The body of Senator Beatty and Secretary Rivera
were discovered late last night.
An arrest warrant has been issued for Kara Green, a senior military advisor,
and Jacob Barnes, White House reporter, in connection with the double homicide.
Meanwhile, we will have more of this story...
You really think this friend of yours can help us?
If we can find him.
(TRUCK HORN HONKING)
What the...
(PEOPLE SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY)
What the hell is that?
They're building a wall.
Making those regional borders permanent.
