Previously on the unit...
we're gonna need to get
exfilled out of here rikki-tik.
Shadow zero-zero, you have
authorization to cross into syria.
You have d.o.d. And state
department authorization?
Affirmative.
What you just did is
a crt-martial offense.
It seems kim's new employer
is our new person of interest.
So he was involved with the assassinations.
He's a money launderer
for the terrorists.
Our old nanny quit, out of nowhere.
Just disappeared without an explanation.
Police found the body in
the sierras 3 weeks ago.
Based on your work, they
i.d.ed it as noelle landers.
- she'd been murdered.
- oh, my god.
Check out the filters.
That ain't air-conditioning.
Take a deep breath.
Might be our last fresh air for a while.
Back on the farm,
the cattle would
sometimes pick up anthrax,
go into convulsions, blood pouring out.
Well that's why they call it a
scourge... the scourge of anthrax.
You heard of that?
- yeah, i've heard of it.
- good.
Work fast and we're back
on the plane by dawn.
Down!
Cover me!
Give me your hand.
Well, that wasn't pretty.
You're dead, you're dead, you're dead,
and my wife is planning my funeral.
I know a place gives you a group discount.
They'll even bury you with your medals.
Well, infrared security or
no, we need a better plan.
I wish we knew what
mistakes bravo team made.
Whatever they were, we can't make 'em.
So this time we make our
own plan, in this room.
Sergeant major.
I have the deputy undersecretary for you.
I've spoken to him twice already.
He's being rather insistent.
He's on the telepresence.
Lower this man's blood pressure, please.
- what would you like for us to tell him?
- not a damn thing.
Sit here, please.
- hello. We on?
- the network is secure, sir.
Thank you. Which one of you
is sergeant major blane?
Sergeant major blane is
game-planning the mission, sir.
And who the hell are you?
We're on his team, sir.
How can we help you?
You're running out of
time. What's the plan?
The situation is being developed, sir.
Spare me the rodeo tricks
and cowboy confidence.
I need to hear details of the plan, and
you look me in the eye when you tell me.
All due respect, sir,
colonel ryan leaves operational
specifics to the team.
Well, what about our plan?
Morgan, are you still in d.c.?
- yes, sir.
- Didn't you get them our plan?
I faxed it twice.
Sending date version to all screens now.
Do you have it?
Yes, sir, we have it.
We dry-runned your plan.
It resulted in casualties.
Acceptable losses?
Not to our children, no.
This is an anthrax lab about
to go online imminently.
We will take it out and leave
no trace of our presence.
Yes, sir. And it's our mission to...
you know what i see?
A team leader
who doesn't bother to show his face
and two accomplices either
too ignorant or too duplicitous
- to share with me an actionable plan.
- The plan is developing.
So, now that i've seen
this won't get done without me,
i will be assuming operational
control of your unit
and the mission will get done my way.
That won't be necessary, sir.
Gleason, get my jet
fueled up and humming.
- sir, that won't be necess...
- signing off.
Well, let's break out
the tea and crumpets.
Looks like we have company coming.
Colonel, there are some officers here
demanding to take Bridget
Sullivan into custody.
Matter of time. Find her and
sequester her in my office.
Yes, sir.
You gentlemen here to see me?
Sir, major paul grand, jag corps.
All right.
I'm to take into custody
warrant officer Bridget Sullivan
- for detention pending court-martial.
- What's the charge?
Sir, i'm not required to
disclose to any but the accused
any information other
than what's on the warrant.
What's the charge?
Acting in contravention of orders.
She authorized a trespass of syrian
airspace using an army helicopter.
Now, if you'll have warrant
officer sullivan present herself.
Sergeant, where's sullivan?
Sir, warrant officer sullivan
has not reported today.
Find her.
Warrant officer sullivan
has not yet reported for duty today.
We'll find her for you.
Now, operational priorities
demand my attention.
The mps out there?
That's right.
What will they do?
Well, they'll search the base.
There's just the two of
them. It'll take a while.
Colonel, i'm ready to turn myself in.
You're gettin' out of dodge.
- awol?
- let me worry about the acronyms.
You're getting off the
base and out of the country.
Let's go.
I knew what i was doing and
i'm prepared for the punishment.
Your file and that of
the rest of the team
have been expunged from
the d.o.d. Database,
so you no longer exist in the military.
And the last thing i need is a
bunch of greenhorn jag lawyers
churning up your true i.d.
We spent a lot of money burying you.
We don't want the
curious digging you up.
- all the same, colonel...
- hold on.
Soldier, i need you to post a
sentry here for the next 20 minutes.
No one, and i mean no one,
is to move beyond this point
without my orders. Do you understand?
We're hopping a c-37 to california.
You're riding in the
jumpseat off the manifest.
You'll travel through
to the philippines.
Instructions will follow you later.
And how long will i...
"till death or i cut loose that tie."
Who said that?
Rudyard kipling, sir.
You saved our *** in syria.
You did it at risk to your own career.
Well done.
Thank you, sir.
You can breach the south
face of the perimeter
which is closest to the lab,
minimizing your open-field
exposure this time.
And we're certain the
anthrax lab is that building?
Yes, we are.
You want to tell me the
source of that certainty?
My team has analyzed sat photos,
examined personnel movement,
placement of filters.
All from 120 miles high.
Well, what the hell
difference, sergeant,
the height at which
the photos were taken?
It would seem to me the salient
point is their resolution.
- Wouldn't that seem the point to you?
- What about sources on the ground?
We don't need some sheepherder
telling us what we already know.
With respect, that sheepherder's been
living there his entire life,
and he's
in possession of something
that your satellites and
listening devices don't supply.
- and that is?
- understanding.
Not only does he know what
these objects look like,
but he knows what they mean.
Soldier, i would neither needlessly nor
pointlessly dispatch you into danger.
What happened to bravo team?
What happened to bravo team is tragic,
but helicopters go down all the time.
They never even made it to their target.
This is your chance to make sure
those men didn't die in vain.
Look, if the lab is
what you want destroyed,
why not just lob in some missiles?
Bombing the lab leaves
an american footprint
in central asia at an inconvenient time.
Well, men leave footprints, too.
Yes. Thank you.
No one can know you were there.
I need anthrax samples from these
3 different sites in the lab.
Now let's run it, see what we got.
The Unit Team

Presents
Episode 10 Season 4
clear!
Hold it right there.
You just released
50,000 spores of anthrax.
- You're infected.
- He's wearing a mask, isn't he?
A mask can leak, even
under the best conditions.
Which this won't be.
Are your vaccinations up to date?
For what strain? There are 89.
- If i had a sample...
- it won't help us very much after the fact.
Anthrax is harmless until
it's been weaponized.
You got your seed
stock, your centrifuge,
your autoclave, but this...
that's the centerpiece there,
the lyophilizer. It dries the
anthrax into a lethal inhalant.
Thank you. I'm aware of that.
Well, if you put a stray
bullet through this,
it's night-night.
Don't use bullets.
- Use alternative ballistics.
- That's an interesting technical term.
- what do you understand it to mean?
- those frangibles.
They break apart upon impact.
He's talking about glaser rounds.
Glaser rounds. That's it.
They're not lethal.
I understand that they're
lethal with a head shot.
Glaser rounds.
Clear!
Good.
Go to glaser rounds.
- That'll make it easier.
- Easier for whom?
- Say again?
- Look, we can bounce glaser rounds
all day long, but if we engage the enemy
in a firefight,
they're gonna be shooting hardjackets.
What if their bullet
pierced the equipment?
- Engage them before they reach the lab.
- With only 2 on overwatch?
- They told me you men were the best.
- Well, i don't know who "they" are,
but i can tell you this
current plan's not gonna work.
You bring me more objections.
I don't want to hear objections.
If you want to speak,
i want to hear solutions.
This is a suicide mission.
Yes, there are going to be risks.
I understand that. I carried
a weapon. In desert shield.
I was in the sand and in the mix.
You're in the mix, huh?
If the uzbeks are allowed to build
an anthrax weapon,
they'd turn central asia
into a powder keg.
The population is over 80% sunni muslim,
friendly to the taliban.
But for the tinpot dictator
keeping a lid on their country,
they'd be supplying our
enemies with bioweapons
to use on our men and women,
right outside that door.
And that won't mean the
loss of one man or two.
It'd be hundreds.
I don't object to the
mission, i object to the plan.
I gave you a chance. You
came up with nothing better.
Look, i have 3 men and 4 hours.
Give me the room and get out of my way.
Bob said he was taking over.
He said i wouldn't have to go
into isaac reed's house ever again.
- That was my intention as well.
- But you sent him on a mission.
Not of my choosing.
He was pulled from me.
Well...
you can't expect me to
go back into that house.
We need everything to appear unchanged.
The woman who worked there
before me was murdered.
Isaac reed was probably involved
in the vice president's assassination.
I have a full protection
detail from pendleton
setting up a block down from the house.
They'll keep you safe.
- You don't have enough to take him in?
- Isaac Reed? No.
With everything you know.
To question him, yes. To scare
him, perhaps. To charge him? No.
The only certain way to
flip him is to charge him,
and we don't have enough, to flip
him, give up his buddies... not yet.
He's expecting to see bob.
Bob had trouble at the office.
An unexpected sales call.
Reed wants to believe you.
He wants to sleep with me, too.
Ok, girlie.
Naptime for bunny rabbits.
Do you need some help?
We're doing just fine.
Can i get a kiss first?
From ella.
Lighten up, kim.
That's my big girl.
Night-night.
There we go.
Marian's away till thursday.
So you said.
Bob's out of town, too.
Isaac, i...
i don't know.
Bob still thinks we can make this work.
Giving up on a marriage
isn't in my dna.
You're just dragging it out.
Well, what about you and marian?
We were stupid enough to think
that having ella would help.
We both know that it's an arrangement
more than a marriage.
I don't know.
Just tell me that you want to kiss me
as much as i want to kiss you.
I do, but...
i told you never to come here.
We need to talk. We
can't talk on the phone.
- your house is being watched.
- that's ridiculous.
Two guys in a car down the street.
They found the girl's
body. Did you hear that?
- i don't know what you're talking about.
- we have to figure this thing out.
It's coming apart, you understand?
It has to be now.
Not now. Get out!
Your kid?
- get out.
- who else is here?
- is someone else here?
- get out.
I said get...
come here.
Please...
- oh, my god. Oh, my god.
- are you all right?
Is he...
i had to.
Who is he?
- what?
- what did he want?
- I don't know. How should i know?
- I'll call the police.
- No !
- why not?
It was self-defense. He had a gun.
The police will understand.
I need your help here.
No, isaac. No, don't touch anything.
Kim, i need you!
No. We cannot...
we need help.
Don't panic. Don't panic.
I will figure this out.
We'll, uh...
we'll wrap him up in this.
There are things you don't understand.
I can't explain them
now. I will explain them.
For now, i need you to trust me.
Do you trust me?
Yes.
- what?
- yes, i trust you. Yes.
Then help me move this body.
Take his feet.
All right. Say we're in.
We take out the anthrax.
What's our exfil out of there?
Well, we can probably clear
the lab in the corridor.
Once we get out in the yard,
though, it's gonna be a turkey shoot.
They're gonna be looking for us to
come out the same way we came in.
Good. Let's give them more
reason to believe. Suggestion.
A decoy.
- I love a decoy.
- With what.
Well, we can't carry much in.
- what's already there?
- i saw wheels.
If i can get to the vehicle...
i can send it towards the fence.
- guards think it's us.
- it draws them off of the gate...
we exit here.
- better yet.
- what's better?
Send a decoy with plastic on the fuel tank.
Time-delay igniter.
Guards catch up with
the vehicle... boom.
- I'll buy that all day long.
- Yeah, that works for me, too.
Pursuit will still be
hot. We'll need to relink
with the helo outside the tz.
Well, after what happened
to bravo, i don't think
they're gonna want to
land a chopper there.
Yeah, but they don't know if
that was mechanical failure
- or if they were shot down.
- But i'll tell you this...
the atvs we got will do 70 at best.
And that's not even over rough terrain.
We'll never make it out of there.
But dr. Death doesn't really
care about that, does he?
All he cares about is
his anthrax souvenir bag.
Who the hell gave him any power?
Oh, you heard him.
He held a weapon in desert shield.
Is that what he was holding?
You know, a month's salary
says he never made it out
of his hotel room in kuwait.
If that guy has seen more
than an hour of combat,
i'm gonna have to restructure
my entire vision of the world.
He tells me he holds a doctorate
in strategic intelligence.
Yeah, a dr. Death.
Richie and bo were on that chopper.
Yeah, you know, richie, uh, he
just marked his fifth year in bravo.
Yeah. Almost stepped in for hector.
Good shooter.
Bo's wife just had a baby.
- yeah. Her first.
- what was it?
Uh...girl.
You know what?
This is not the time or the place
for a pity party.
The road home for us...
runs through uzbekistan.
Ready?
He won't fit.
He has to.
You get that end.
This won't help us.
Please, let me call the police.
You want me to go to prison?
If was self-defense.
You have to trust me.
I will explain, i promise.
But we have to get out of here first.
I saved your life.
Use garbage bags.
What?
To put under the rug
so you don't get blood in the car.
Good.
Your hand.
Rug burn.
Let's go get ella.
I'm scared.
It's gonna be all right.
It's gonna be all right.
Car's pulling out.
Ok, it's just reed.
Ms. Brown's still in the house.
Can i get up now?
Soon.
- Gentlemen.
- I got a working plan to show you.
- Hold up. We have new intel.
- Intel from where?
Our eye in the sky over uzbekistan.
- is it the lab?
- taken over the last 3 days.
- Time-lapse.
- We call it coherent change detection.
What do you call it
when you're in a hurry?
It looks like they're setting up
something around the perimeter.
- a new warning defense.
- are you sure?
Look at the configuration.
The scattered stationary elements.
That's a seismic intrusion system.
Seismic intrusion.
It detects soil movement
along the perimeter.
Exactly how much movement?
Every footstep.
- The entire perimeter?
- Under everything but the front doormat.
You know, i need some
confirmation on this.
You're looking at it.
What's your new plan?
Well, if what you say is
true, that plan's no good.
that plan is done for
if we get to the fence
If they were smart enough
to weaponize anthrax,
they probably got brains
enough to protect it.
Well, if we can't pierce the system,
the only other way is to avoid it.
- avoid it where?
- front door.
- so, what, go in soft?
- yeah, and as what?
Well, there's about
30 soldiers in there.
They gotta get their food from someone.
Wait. We got images here somewhere.
Here we go.
These trucks here are
coming in from the village.
- borrow a truck. I can do that.
- military?
From the looks of this, local civilian.
What do the time stamps say?
0600 hours, uh, 0620.
Morning deliveries.
So now we're talking
about a daylight assault.
You got something better
to do on a sunny day?
Well, it won't give us much
time to take down the lab,
but we weren't counting on a lot anyway.
Well, if it was easy,
everyone would do it.
Let's dry-run it.
hold your fire!
Hold your fire!
Well, that didn't work either.
- a daytime assault is out.
- too far from the gate to the lab.
- we'd never get in unseen.
- so now we're back to night?
Yeah, with no way in.
No way in without casualties.
The uzbeks are sending
reinforcements to the lab.
- how many?
- well, we have intercepts
from their 34th rifle brigade out of
andijan. Convoy of 40, minimum.
Well, that figures. After
bravo team went down,
they're expecting another assault.
Yeah? Well, how much
time before they arrive?
They're in the target
zone by tomorrow night.
You want us to move now.
Your transport is
loading up on the runway.
We don't have time for this. Your
plan isn't working. Go with mine.
At least that way we'll get
the anthrax plant neutralized.
Look, we don't go in unless
we believe we can get out.
Then you develop the situation on
the ground. Isn't that what you said?
The mission is of
unparalleled importance.
Do you accept the mission or not?
Your plane is on the tarmac.
To you accept the mission or not?
All right.
But you remember these faces, sir.
Let's go.
Where are you going?
Somewhere to bury him.
Somebody's gonna be looking for him.
Oh, god, isaac, did you get my husband
mixed up with these people?
I saved your life.
I saved your damn life. That's
the only thing you have to know.
Shut up.
Listen...
i'll go to the police
and i'll tell them that i killed him.
I'll say he broke into the
house while you were out.
- it won't work.
- yes, it will.
He came after me, i grabbed a knife,
i killed him in self-defense.
- i will do that for you.
- he was stabbed from behind.
- we struggled. I got behind him.
- listen. Kim...
and you came home,
and you wanted to protect me
- by disposing of the body.
- no.
Let me out.
- stop.
- i'll walk from here. I don't care.
- don't be ridiculous.
- isaac.
I can't let you leave.
I won't say anything.
I swear.
I'm sorry, kim. No.
So now i'm your prisoner?
Kim, i...
what the...
kim!
Lift the rug so i can get the spare.
Kim!
- i want to go home.
- it won't be long now.
- i want to go home.
- let's just get this over with.
Stay next to me.
Closer.
Hey. Got a flat, huh?
Need a hand?
It's ok. I got it.
You sure? Gas station's
quite a few miles out.
Thanks all the same.
My wife would never let
me hear the end of it
if i asked for help changing a tire.
Fine by me.
Good luck with that.
Thanks.
Down!
Clear!
Hold your fire! Hold your fire!
The light.
Top?
- the plan.
- yeah?
You know what inspiration is?
A momentary cessation of stupidity.
I think i got something.
I think i got something.
That's bravo's chopper.
It looks pretty bad.
You ok?
- yeah.
- what is it?
Shell casings.
Could have fallen from the
door of the gunner's bin.
Not these. 556 casings.
From an m4. From bravo.
More over here.
And tracks, too.
Looks like they were in
the fight of their lives.
Radio still works.
Metz said they lost communication
when bravo team went down.
He also said everybody died on impact.
They were cut down here, making a stand.
Where are the bodies ?
Something else someone
forget to tell us.
Snake doc, surprise party was a hit.
Snake doc, surprise party was a hit.
Roger that, betty blue.
Time to blow out the candles.
Copper.
Go.
There goes the power.
That should take care of
their seismic intrusion system.
Betty blue...
we're on our way.
Dancin' in the dark.
Shall we?
Back-up generator.
What the hell?
This is the lab?
Check out this junk.
You see any lyophilizer?
- nothing.
- What is this?
You couldn't bake cookies in here,
much less a batch of anthrax.
Snake doc, we got a dry hole.
We got duped.
No freeze-dryer, no autoclave.
Over here.
- poppies.
- yeah, here's dr. Death's anthrax.
***. 2 teams, 8,000
miles for a little smack.
- a little sideline for the uzbek army.
- everybody needs something to fall back on.
All right, grab a sample,
let's get out of here.
Please quiet her down.
She's hungry. She hasn't eaten in hours.
- then feed her.
- we didn't bring any bottles.
Isn't there anything in the car?
Look under the seat. Water bottle?
- we could stop.
- no.
- what am i supposed to do?
- i don't know, just do something!
- maybe i...
- what?
Maybe i put a pacifier
in her diaper bag.
All right.
- you're going too fast. Pull over.
- we are not stopping.
- is it there?
- somewhere.
Thank god.
Yes.
Doc, we got trouble!
Lab!
Hold 'em back, out of the lab.
There's gotta be some
re-agent around here somewhere.
Acetic hydride.
As long as it's flammable.
- perfect.
- here.
Everybody put on your masks.
The smoke'll take you higher.
Let's get out of here!
Kim.
The shovel.
No.
- now's not the time.
- i'm done.
Ok.
I understand.
You can go.
- i can?
- of course.
Kim!
How far do you think you're gonna get?!
- please, no.
- i'm so sorry, kim.
- no.
- i don't want to.
Then don't.
Isaac...
- put the gun down.
- i think i love you, i really do,
but i don't have a choice, kim.
You tell me what choice i have!
Please, isaac.
You love me,
and i love you.
I love you,
- and i will help you.
- no, it's too late.
I'm sorry, kim, but it's time.
It's time.
Isaac reed, drop your weapon.
Now.
Down on the ground now.
Cool breeze, dirt diver.
Clear us an exfil corridor.
Right. We're moving.
Betty blue...
oh, god.
Oh, damn it.
Just my shoulder. I'm good.
- detour.
- yeah.
Bo?
- doc!
- it's bo.
Carlito, jonas,
- i knew you guys would come for me.
- where's the rest of bravo?
Got ambushed the minute we landed.
I'm the only one.
Wait, they told us you
all died in the crash.
- who told you?
- metz.
Metz? I radioed in before they took me.
Snake doctor, we cleared
the run to the perimeter.
- i can't hold it forever.
- roger that, cool breeze.
We're on our way.
You good to run?
Better than him.
I can shoot, too. Come on.
Give him your piece.
Let's go home.
You want to talk numbers now?
Because we left here with
4 and we came back with 5.
Bo! My god!
Great job, guys.
Great job. I can't believe it!
- yeah, i bet you can't.
- i had no idea you'd...
you son of a ***!
I lost my whole crew 'cause of you.
- what happened was regrettable, but...
- you left me to die!
Why?! Why would i want to do that?
Because we wouldn't have to rescue him.
You didn't tell us there was a survivor
because you thought that might
slow us down destroying the anthrax.
That was the mission. That
was always the mission.
- the mission was a joke.
- is that my sample?
- yeah. That's your ***.
- ***?
- some bad guys were selling drugs.
- we must tell the king.
Then you were looking
in the wrong place.
The uzbeks contracted
a german manufacturer
to acquire high-end anthrax technology.
They had the means and the ambition.
Here's your seismic intrusion device.
It's a sprinkler system.
That's what they were
installing. Lawn sprinklers.
File a report.
I'll find another team
to get the job done.
- another team?
- that's right.
- to do what?
- to locate and destroy the anthrax.
- what anthrax?
- you're being shipped home.
I'll arrange a medevac for your wounded.
There is no anthrax.
We'll be leaving for frankfort
the day after tomorrow.
- you're coming with us?
- it'll give us a chance
to get out stories straight
before the hot wash.
We've got our story straight.
It's called the truth.
My men got nervous, knocked on the door.
Getting no answer, they forced entry.
Found the blood and didn't find you.
Thank you for saving me.
- you saved yourself.
- what about him?
Well, now we got a lever to turn him.
Thanks to you.
How you doin'?
I'm all right now.

of all personnel on this plane
for the duration of the mission.
