SEAL Team (2017) s02e12 Episode Script

Things Not Seen

- Previously on SEAL Team - Senior Chief Ashland Spenser.
You know, if I was so terrible, why is my only son spending his life following in my footsteps? I'm not following in your footsteps.
I'm erasing them.
You deserve someone that will embrace your life.
I don't think that I can be with you anymore.
Padre, give him his last rites.
I can't.
He's dead.
Adam was killed in action.
Gave his life to save his brothers.
Last time we were here, when we, uh That was a fleeting moment.
Fleeting Sonny.
Yeah.
Not often you find Jeff Walker outside the Beltway.
What's the occasion? Wanted to make sure we're on the same page before you push this mission to the assault force.
God, I don't like the sound of that.
Farid Dahir, sex trafficker with ties to Turkish organized crime, pops up on the grid every once in a while.
Has a nice little business for himself selling women online.
- And? - And this.
My name is Jenna Robertson.
I'm from the United States of America.
I'm 22 years old.
I left my country by my own choice.
I weigh 52 kilograms Jihad Jenna.
All-American Midwestern teenager, radicalized online, disappears from home two years ago, shows up in Syria an ISIS mujahideen bride.
And became an instant fixture in their propaganda.
That's her.
Fighter she married, Abu Rakim.
He's one of six battlefield commanders still operational.
So how'd she end up for sale by a Turkish trafficker? Unknown.
What we do know is an account linked to Dahir posted a sizable incoming wire transfer yesterday.
Dahir found a buyer.
- Who? - Probably her husband.
If she escaped, ISIL can't have Jenna ending up in Western hands.
The intel she has is bad enough, but it's the PR angle that'll really hurt: "Jihad Jenna disavows the caliphate.
" The handoff is set to go down in 24 hours.
You are not seriously considering a rescue op.
Not considering it.
Mission's already been authorized.
Jenna spent the past two years in the highest levels of an unrecognized enemy nation state.
She's a treasure trove of intel.
So is her husband Rakim.
Why not just go after him? I mean, Jenna's a woman.
In that world, there's no way she would have access to the kind of intel you're after.
This smells like politics.
We're rescuing a young woman who made a terrible mistake and needs the help of her country.
- Oh, my - Whatever intel or optics come along with that will be well-received.
You don't believe that.
I don't need to.
And neither do you.
Just prep your team.
In the end, it's a kinetic op, just like any other.
Okay Yeah.
Yeah, hang on.
Ash? Clay.
So what happened to, uh, Stella? What do you mean? Who says anything happened? Well, I don't know, just, the general lack of anything female in this place.
We split up.
Oh.
That's too bad.
I liked her.
I suppose it's better it happened now, before some nasty divorce, or Kids to cramp my style.
That's not what I meant.
So what are you doing here? Just wanted to see you.
Well, there's a first for everything, I guess, right? Clay.
Hey.
You're my son.
I'm proud of you.
I keep tabs on everything you do.
All right? Don't think I don't know that it was you, okay.
It was Brave Team who handled that mess over at Saudi a couple months ago.
Maybe.
Maybe.
BS.
Listen, I got a meeting with my publisher in an hour.
I was hoping we could get a beer later.
- Okay? I need to run something by you.
- Get a beer later? Yeah, let's, let's get a beer later, Dad.
That'd be good.
You know? Maybe we can toss the old pigskin around? - It'd be fun.
It'd be really fun.
- You're my son, okay? Now, I know that I wasn't the world's greatest dad, but I'd like us to be closer.
Yeah, well, you know, it doesn't really happen that way Yeah, I realize that, Clay! But I'm just looking for a chance to work it out.
"An oasis in the midst of rolling hills, Bennington is a refuge from the rigors of modern life.
" Okay.
That a college or a day spa? Shut up.
Maybe it's a cult? How do you know what a cult is? The Internet.
It is, um, "bastion for the next generation of trailblazers.
" - Trailblazer? - Yeah, not-not sure that's me.
Eh, Adam Seaver's kid is gonna be whatever she wants to be, Hannah.
- Thanks, Mr.
Hayes.
- You got it.
Oh.
Hi, Mom.
Hey, let me grab my bag, okay? - Hey, Victoria.
- Hey.
Did they study at all? Um I have no idea.
But, you know what? They were laughing, so - Hmm.
- that's all that matters, right? They're lucky to have each other.
- Yeah.
- Can you believe they're both gonna leave home soon? Yeah, out in the real world, uh You don't think Emma's ready for it? You know, I was meaning to call you.
Um, I've been going to a support group.
Maybe you should come to one.
A support group.
- Yeah.
- No, that's, uh really not my thing.
I figured.
But it might surprise you.
- Why is that? - Well, if anything else, it's right next to a diner, so, um, I get to grief eat.
- They got beer there? - They do.
Beer, I like.
You know? The whole grief counseling thing, I'm not, uh, - it's not really me.
- Yeah.
I'm more of a, uh, a grin and I'll have another beer kind of a guy.
Right? - Yeah.
- Yeah.
Okay.
- You take care, Jason.
- Yeah.
Yeah, see you.
Did you get any work done, ladies? Yeah, a little bit.
A little bit.
Pastor, I know.
We've just been real busy.
No, Naima didn't tell me.
It must've slipped her mind.
Yeah, y-you know what? Um, can I get back to you? Okay.
All right.
You, too.
Hello from under the bus.
It's Pastor Mel, like asking about dates for the baptism.
I didn't have an answer.
How about an answer for me? I mean, you've been ducking it for a while.
What's on your mind? I haven't been ducking a damn thing, Naima.
W-What am I supposed to do, just walk around telling you what's on my mind every minute? - Huh? - Not asking you to do that.
Just asking about the baptism.
Baby, I-I, look, I'm-I'm sorry.
Okay? I just don't know what I don't know what to tell the church right now.
I'm not ready to tell them anything.
Hey, there's no rush for the baptism.
I'll even take the blame.
You all right? Yeah.
Fine.
There you are.
Ooh - Oh, you're awake! - Oh! Damn, Davis.
Man, you scared the hell out of me.
- Oh, I'm sorry.
- Ugh, made a mess here.
Breakfast time.
- Yeah? - Yeah.
All right.
What we having? Oh, I don't know.
What are you making? Okay, you got to let my processors wake up before I can construct a meal for such fine company.
Well, okay, well, start on processing 'cause I'm hungry.
You gonna remember to take your hat home this time? Do you know that it's bad luck to separate a Texan from his hat before noon? - It's bad luck? Okay, how? - Uh-huh.
Well, the last guy it happened to, his horse got shingles.
Yep.
And that's actually a real thing.
I didn't know that.
Okay, and what happened to the last girl? Well, a woman's never worn it before.
What are you staring at? I'm just enjoying this moment.
Yeah, well Mm.
Yeah.
Mm-hmm.
I'm gonna take a shower.
- Okay.
- Okay.
Hey, Davis.
My hat does not go in the shower.
Yeah.
Whew.
All right, who wants, uh sunny-side up for breakfast? Hey, Davis, where you keep the, uh, cooking utensils and hot sauce and stuff? We will bathe in the blood of your soldiers.
Praise be So, let me get this straight.
Okay? We're being asked to rescue some addled teenager whose ideal spa treatment is to soak in American blood.
That's the mission, Sonny.
You don't have to like it.
Well, just for the record, I don't.
As far as I'm concerned, she can rot in hell.
Politically, Jenna's choice to join ISIS is being viewed as a childhood mistake.
And her role in their propaganda as coerced.
A childhood mistake? She was 19 when she married Rakim.
Perfect age for online radicalization.
Her story fits the profile of dozens of women.
You're patronizing her because she's a woman.
You'd never offer that excuse if she were a man.
I might be rationalizing it for myself, sure.
I was 19 when I enlisted.
I knew what I was doing.
She did, too.
Maybe who she was isn't who she is.
Oh, surprise, surprise.
Gandhi over here thinks that Miss Death-To-America has seen the light.
There's dozens of Americans held captive around the world.
We're not going after them.
But salvation comes in the form of Bravo Team kicking down the door of a woman who betrayed us all? Why? Why? 'Cause Jenna Robertson's name is on the list.
Right? If the intel supports it, then it supports it.
Right? Debate club's over.
This operation walks the line between politics and our military strategy in the region.
Whether or not she has actionable intel, whether or not she's guilty of treason, the important thing is that the papers read "Jihad Jenna Disavows ISIS.
" And that can't happen unless we bring her home.
All right, you heard her.
Grab your kits.
Wheels up in four hours.
Dahir's holding Jenna in Al-Hasakah, 200 kilometers inside Syria.
Al-Hasakah? This place is a dump, man.
It's been bombed to hell and back.
Oh, yeah, everyone from ISIS to the Kurds have occupied it at one time or another.
Nothing left but scorched earth.
It's Russian-controlled airspace, right? Right.
Exactly why we're gonna HAHO in to the DZ, five klicks east of the target.
Not much of an offset.
I mean, they could easily have patrols inside of five klicks.
What's the closest QRF, Davis? A Marine Corps infantry unit, 70 kilometers north, in Qamishli.
They have rotary wing assets that will double as your extraction platform.
Russian airspace, so no ISR.
Not exactly.
This is the future.
This is a next-generation prototype of the Raven UAV.
Brock, don't touch that.
It's got an extended battery bank and streaming capabilities.
I think I found one of those at the bottom of a Cracker Jack box once.
It may not look like much, but it is gonna give us eyes.
So, once you're on the ground, launch it when you land.
Then I will take control via satellite and provide ISR for your infil and action on target.
All you boys got to do is get it up.
You think you can do that? - Oh - Oh, zing.
That's why they call me Full Metal.
Zing! All right, all right, all right.
Let's lock it up.
What's the target structure? It's a local mausoleum.
It's a large building for such a small force, but we can't afford to leave a bigger footprint on this one.
What do you have on the actual target? Last satellite pass indicates four to six fighting-age males moving off and on the target throughout the day with different bags and vehicles.
No sign of Miss Robertson.
Armed? Appear to be.
Remember, this is a contested area inside a full-blown war zone with zero governing authority.
Don't assume anything out there.
Middle of no-man's-land? Limited assets, intel and overwatch? I-I got to say it feels off.
I mean, for all we know, Jenna could still be radicalized.
Maybe she's looking for a repeat of the Echo Team ambush.
And this place, this is the perfect spot for it.
All right, look, it's a long flight, so what should we do, Blackburn? Let's get some rest.
If it was my choice, we wouldn't be prosecuting this operation at all.
Well, if it was my choice, I'd rather be be ice-skating with the boys, and afterwards, throwing down some 'Ronas.
- I don't like it.
- What don't you like? Politically motivated missions never end well because they generally begin with incomplete intel packages.
Ray's right.
There's nothing to indicate that Jenna isn't a hostage, but nothing indicates that she's not still loyal to ISIS.
Mandy, we're about to jump out of this plane very soon, so unless you have something concrete to scrub this mission, it's business as usual.
Infil.
Hit the target, mission complete.
Exfil.
Easy day.
Okay, I'm just saying the intel is incomplete.
Be careful.
- All right.
- One hour out.
It's about time to get jocked up.
Time to get jocked up.
Havoc, this is 1.
Pass Travis.
That's a good copy, Bravo 1.
I copy Travis.
Havoc out.
Havoc, this is 1.
We got a clean visual on the target building.
Good copy, Bravo 1.
You are clear to launch the UAV.
Havoc, this is Bravo 4.
UAV is up in the air.
You're cleared hot to take over control.
Copy, Bravo 4.
Stand by.
I have control of the drone.
Havoc, this is 1.
I need an updated sitrep on the target building.
Target is clean right now, Bravo 1.
Copy that.
Let's move.
Bravo 1, we are picking up a single heat signature in the second floor of the target building.
Could be our HVT.
Copy that.
This is it.
Do it.
Go.
Move.
- Move.
- Moving.
No sign of vest or belt.
We're Americans.
Identify yourself.
Jackpot.
Havoc, it's 1.
Pass Crockett.
Cut her loose.
Ray, take the gag out.
Hey, shut her up! - Hold her down! - Shut up! - Don't let her move.
- What do you got? She's wired.
Don't move her.
Talk to me, Kairos.
Kairos, talk to me.
She moves, we die.
Kairos, why didn't it detonate? No idea.
I got three 152-mil shells wired together.
Kill radius is this room and half the building.
Well, if that line's the trigger, let's cut it and get the hell out of Dodge.
Not that simple.
Current could be running through this wire.
You cut the circuit, it detonates.
- How long to disarm it? - I can't say.
This arduino and power source are linked to a blasting cap in the nose of each artillery round.
If she moves, breaks the circuit, boom.
All stations, this is 1.
We got an EOD situation.
Hostage is hooked up to multiple UXOs.
We cannot move her without detonation.
Target's not secure.
Bravo 1, this is Havoc Base.
I copy your EOD situation.
Be advised, you don't have much time till daylight.
Copy that.
Fill us in as it progresses.
Havoc out.
Thanks a pantload there, Lassie, but we already fell in the damn well.
What can we do? EOD's on it.
Don't worry about it.
You two, pull security on the north side.
Check.
We're on it.
How the hell didn't the Agency catch this? You know we can't predict what happens once they're on target.
Yeah, well, you can vet it well enough to keep my men from walking - straight into an ambush.
- Sun's coming up.
Time on target's gonna be way too long.
Davis, spin up the QRF.
- Monero.
- On it.
Had to be spotters watching us come in, gonna be wondering - why that bomb did not detonate.
- I know.
Only a matter of time before they show up.
We're fish in a barrel down here.
I know.
Bravo 6, this is 1.
I need you to run external security.
Check.
External security.
We're on it.
Take the gag out of her mouth.
Don't move.
Listen to me, Abu Rakim, where is he? I-I-I don't know.
I don't know.
- Yes, you do.
You're a part of this.
- No, no, no.
No, I'm not.
I'm No.
Rakim's a monster.
I ran from him.
Yeah, after running right to him.
No, I'm-I'm not a part of this.
Yes, you are.
You're the reason why we're here.
I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry.
I-I didn't know there was a bomb.
I didn't know there was a bomb.
I'm not part of this.
You have to believe me.
Stop.
We're not here to believe you.
We're here to take you home.
Bravo 4, I got one fighter moving from the south to our southeast coming toward us.
Check.
I see him.
He's armed.
Havoc Base, this is Bravo 4.
One fighter down on the east side of the target.
Bravo 6 to Havoc Base.
Requesting an updated ISR sitrep on the area due east of the target building.
Copy, Bravo 6.
Coming around for a wider pass.
You don't have to hold me down.
I won't move.
Like you didn't move when we came in? Yeah, you seemed pretty eager to move then.
- I was scared.
- Uh-huh.
- I didn't know who you were.
- Yeah.
I didn't know that they rigged this.
When your pals come in here and put a bullet right through you, you ain't gonna get the whole martyr afterlife package.
What do lady bombers get anyway? Always wondered that.
Sonny.
Disengage.
I was just about to do that anyway.
She's not going anywhere.
Pull security at the doorway.
Roger that.
Kairos, talk to me.
- What's going on? - Working the problem.
Bravo 6, we are registering two heat signatures northeast of your position, 200 meters out.
Havoc Base, I got nothing.
They're one block out, 6.
Closing in from the northeast.
See them as soon as they cross the MSR.
Havoc, this is Bravo 4.
Nothing from my angle.
4, I'm gonna move to the northeast corner to get a better look.
Check.
I'll hold here.
What is that? That's a radio.
- He's a spotter.
- They're calling the cavalry in.
Havoc Base to Bravo 1, we're seeing an enemy technical with a heavy machine gun and at least six armed fighters two mikes out, approaching your location from the east.
Good copy, Havoc.
IED initiated ambush with follow-up assault.
These guys know what they're doing.
Bravo 6, you're gonna see 'em first.
Good copy, Bravo 1.
I'm on it.
I'll take "Jihadi Honey Traps" for 800, Alex.
Kairos, talk to me.
Five, ten minutes maybe.
Bravo 6 to Bravo 4, I got a vehicle moving toward us right here.
It's an up-armored VBIED.
Smoke it! Trent, I can't get a bullet in there.
After all these years, finally.
Yeah, buddy.
Uh, rocket out.
What the hell just happened, Bravo 6? Enemy just detonated a VBIED about 30 meters from our egress point.
1, this is 4.
Correction.
I just detonated an enemy VBIED 30 meters from our egress point.
Okay.
Check.
Hold security, and, uh, we're almost done here.
Negative.
I can't see anything - up here with all this smoke.
- All right.
Check.
Get back to the first deck.
I'll meet you at the main entrance.
Okay, swami boy, let's go.
Storm's coming.
Working the problem.
Work faster, hippie.
Work it like a vegan burrito.
- Kairos? - Five minutes, at most.
We're good here, J.
Go.
The minute it's safe to go, get her out fast, meet us at the main entrance.
You got it? Affirmative.
Sonny, hold the room.
Brock, Full Metal, collapse your position, meet me at the front entrance.
Bravo 1, be advised, you have approximately ten enemy combatants converging on your position.
Understood.
Bravo 1, you need to move and move fast.
QRF is inbound.
You need to get your guys out of there.
Hey, hey.
Hey, you're gonna get out of here, okay? You're gonna get out of here.
I don't deserve to.
I don't deserve to get out of here.
Well, I do.
Hmm? You have to stay calm, okay? Shh I'm so sorry.
I'm so sorry for everything that I did.
I'm so sorry.
I didn't know about this, I swear, I swear.
- Jenna, Jenna, Jenna.
- I didn't know.
I believe you.
Okay? - You do? - I do.
Why? A feeling.
That's all? That's it.
Shh Look at me.
Just meet your eyes with mine and breathe.
You're gonna be okay.
1, this is 4.
It's getting too hot up here.
I'm collapsing security to your position.
Good copy, Bravo 4.
Meet you at main entrance.
Move it.
Move! Spenser, you good? Yeah, yeah, I'm solid.
Got contacted on my way down here.
They're coming through the south entrance, must've been when we were shooting that VBIED.
Yeah, they're coming through like rats.
All right, look, we'll stronghold our position here until Kairos finishes nerfing those bombs, and then we'll go home.
Bravo 1, how far out from exfil are you? We're close.
QRF? They're moving as fast as they can.
Right now we're looking at five mikes out.
Jenna, I get up, you're gonna stay still, right? You're praying, aren't you? No.
No, I haven't prayed in a while.
Will you pray for me? The Lord is my shepherd.
I shall not want.
He maketh me lie down in green pastures.
He leadeth me beside still waters.
If we're planning to shoot our way out of here, we're gonna need some more guns online, you know that.
Kairos, how long? I need all my shooters down here.
Kairos, how long? Patience is a virtue.
Not a Texan one.
Moment of truth.
That's it? - That's it.
- Damn it, Hurt Locker, I could've flipped that switch myself.
You kidding me? Yup, cut her loose.
All right, boys.
Let's move.
Come on.
You good to go? Never more than right now.
Get down! An RPG-7 won't arm under 100 meters.
You can all breathe again.
Let's go! Grenade! Trent, tourniquet.
Okay.
Hey, hey.
Calm down.
Listen, Jenna.
Looks like it didn't hit an artery, okay? You're gonna be fine.
It did hit your leg, but it didn't go through.
Now you're gonna feel some pressure.
Hold on.
Bravo 1, be advised.
You have two enemy technical vehicles outside the target building.
We got to take out that Dishka! We got to wait for them to reload! Ray, stay with the hostage.
Copy.
Sonny, give us a good burst on our way out.
Go! Hey.
Prep a frag.
On your mark.
Move, move! Go, go, go, go, go, go, go! - Let's clean this out.
- Let's do it.
Cease fire! Cease fire! Let's get out of here.
Bravo 1.
QRF and exfil platform are inbound.
What is the status on the hostage? Havoc, stand by one.
Bravo 2, what's your sitrep? Bravo 2, what's your sitrep? She's gonna be fine.
Target's secure.
Get us home.
Copy that.
Let's go.
Let's go! Cheers to that.
Hey.
Hmm? What's that? The reason we're alive.
Thought the circuit board was part of the bomb.
It was.
This a second arduino.
A fail-safe.
A trap on a trap.
But it's faulty.
Look.
One tiny wire.
I've never seen anything quite like that.
By any definition, a miracle, man.
Maybe.
Or maybe whoever built it got sloppy.
- Oh, come on now.
- Yeah, maybe maybe it got broke on instillation.
Maybe maybe it's just dumb luck.
Not everything is more than it seems, Kairos.
Hey, but hey.
Either way thanks.
Yeah.
Walking my team into a setup with a half-baked intel package just so you could put a notch on your belt? I don't give a damn about seniority, Jeff.
Someone is gonna answer for this.
Okay, well, I hope whoever that was deserved it.
More than deserved.
Jason, I'm sorry.
CIA, we We missed something on this.
Well, the intel wasn't totally wrong.
I mean, Jenna was there, so Yeah, sitting on a bomb.
Well, you can never really know what's around every corner, now, can you? Well, look, I'm-I'm sorry.
This isn't like you.
I know that you were shaky before this whole mission started and all, but look got the job done, right? Everybody's alive.
It was a good day.
Easy day.
So I hear they serve beer here.
- Jason.
Hey.
- Yeah.
You missed the meeting.
Oh, thank God.
Last thing I want to do is sit there and Thank you.
Can I get a beer? Well, unless you - want to be alone, I can - No.
No, stay.
- Staying.
- Good.
Good.
Did you just get back from somewhere? Right.
Dirt under the fingernails, a little rough around the edges, huh? Hmm.
It's just a a certain kind of tired in your eyes.
Right, you would know.
What I hated most about, uh, when Adam would get spun up it wasn't that he was gone, it was that when he got back, he couldn't, uh he couldn't tell me about it.
Thanks.
Let's just say, um someone made a mistake a few years ago.
When she was really young.
It was pretty big.
Can I ask you a question? Yeah.
You trust your daughter Hannah? Trust her? Like - with my car, or? - No, I mean trust her.
Like, uh, with boys and drugs.
In college, that whole thing? They have to grow up sometime.
And they have to make their own decisions and they have to make their own mistakes.
Huh.
Right.
Emma does, too.
Yeah, I-I know that.
I just don't I don't know how to let her, um I just don't know.
- You know? - I know.
Yeah.
- I trust Hannah.
- Mm-hmm.
I trust her because because she's still Adam's daughter.
And Emma is still your daughter.
Yeah, she is.
That's what scares me.
Hey, I didn't know you were still here.
I figured I'd grab the last two pair of decent socks.
You should order more before you leave us, Officer Lisa Davis.
Not sure it's got a ring to it, one that I like anyway.
How did? I'm sorry.
Look, I was trying to find a way to tell you.
Telling the truth hard to figure? Come on, it's not like I was lying.
That's exactly what it was.
No, actually, it wasn't.
Look, Sonny, since we Hey, we should talk about this.
No, we shouldn't.
All right, you just got to do what you got to do, and that's leave.
Truth is, you were right, it was a bad idea from the start.
Okay, so, let's just keep it professional till you leave Bravo Team.
You know, when I said we should have a beer, I meant a couple days ago.
I got busy.
Hey, can we get a couple more? Spin up? You all right? Yeah, still breathing.
Cheers to that.
So My new book is about finished.
We think it's gonna be bigger than the first one.
I was kind of hoping maybe you would read the manuscript.
You've always been good with words.
Sure.
Okay.
I got to take this.
It's my publisher.
Hey, can you, uh, can you turn this up? How would you describe that job? Team.
My next book focuses a great deal on that, and the missions.
The operations that nobody knows about.
You'd be surprised how often we hear of SEAL missions and we don't even know it.
For example, just a couple of months ago, Shia extremists threatened to poison the water supply of Saudi Arabia, and it was the SEALs who solved that problem.
How do you know? I have a firsthand account from a SEAL who was there.
