National Geography: Surviving 9/11

Merry Christmas, everyone.

Are you going to be a mummy?

Alison told me... about the baby.

It's not Ed's. I'm going to tell him.

Joe? Did you deal with that reporter?

- Yes, sir. - Reporter?

Did you tell your wife where you were going on Christmas day?

We've got him, Joe --

the Paras picked him up last night.

Kadir Hakim.

I was wrong.

What? Hang on, I don't understand.

Do not read this until tomorrow.

See you on the other side.

George?!

He's probably just playing somewhere.

If he's with Yusra, then he's safe,

erm, they'll have gone somewhere together.

He was wearing a red football shirt, with a number seven on the back.

The phone call was anonymous. The parcel was on my bed in my room.

They've taken him.

They've got George.

Oscar Two Mike, this is Kilo One Charlie.

Visibility poor, conditions worsening.

Proceeding with search.

'Roger that, over and out.'

Sir?

Hmm?

You've been up all night.

You should be with Mary. As soon as we hear anything...

- Sir. - I didn't want him to go.

It was the BP Club.

I mean, you couldn't have known a thing like this would happen.

I'm an officer in the British Army --

I'm a military policeman to my core and I'm a father.

It's who I am. It's what I'm for.

And I let this happen.

This is suicide!

Slow down maybe, Sarge?

I know my way into Crater, Orchover.

Armstrong!

Mary?

Where's Green Teddy?

I don't know.

Did he take him?

- We have to try and... - When he went to the BP Club,

did George have Green Teddy?

- Mary... - Please tell me, darling,

the answer to my question.

Er...

I don't think he had Green Teddy, no.

George didn't take him -- neither of us have moved him.

Yusra?

How could I have been so wrong about her?

She's been tricking you.

She gained our trust, she got close to George, so that...

So that...

She was laughing once, about her little brother being naughty.

Yes, that's all part of it. She wanted us to think

- that her family life was... - Under a market stall, she said.

He ran from their house, to get away from their mother

- and hid under a stall in the market. - In Crater? - Yes.

Which market?

A stall selling what?

Think, Mary.

She said oranges.

'Oscar Three Mike.

'Target identified, south of fruit market. Copy, over.'

Kilo One Charlie copies. Roger that, over.

The streets immediately south of the fruit market.

- The Royal Scots are covering that sector. - Change of plan!

Aden... where East meets West.

Vital as an oil refinery as well as a Gulf trade route.

The beach here at Aden is lovely...

The sand is warm

and the sharks are not always hungry.

The occasional outbreaks of violence

are caused by what are officially called dissident tribesmen.

As long as there's trouble, there must be troops.

The Queen has full confidence

in Aden's future, describing it

as the perfect example of colonial rule.

On me!

Fall in!

Move out!

I'll say this once. Don't not hear me.

There are six streets running south from this market.

I want six pairs, a street each.

Door to door, no knocking and waiting, we're in fast.

I don't want anyone inside having a second to think.

This is the CO's boy. We've got to bring him home.

Have you got that?!

- Yes, sir! - Good.

Corporal -- twos, please.

Sir! Sir!

- Yes? - Yusra and George are more like friends than...

That woman's in on this and you'd better start getting your soft head around it, Armstrong.

Let's go!

Go! Go! Go! Go! Go!

Orchover! Squad! Move it!

Yusra. Yusra?

Don't move! Stay there.

I said don't move.

What's he saying?

~ - Yusra? We're looking for Yusra.

Sit down.

- Sit down! - Steady, Sergeant.

- SIT DOWN! - Sarge!

I think they want us to close the door -- the sand.

I have to talk to you, about what happened at the BP Club.

I mean, what you saw in the moments leading up to...

What was so important that you couldn't bring George swimming?

You promised him.

I had to speak to someone.

Who?

A reporter. Martha Franklin.

Christmas Day, I don't understand.

We have a small child to find. I haven't got time...

You were at the party and you left me, without telling me,

as if I didn't exist, I don't exist.

Am I doing something wrong, Joe?

All right.

If you want an answer, here's your answer.

Photographs of Corporal Dimarco.

What, what, what photographs?

Of his head!

On a stake!

His head jammed on the end of a stake.

Do you know what that looks like?

Can you imagine?

I'm sorry.

I had to get back the film and I had to destroy it.

I thought you'd drowned. I thought my husband had died.

I can't ask permission from my wife for everything that I do.

No.

No, but why are you so far away from me?

What's happened? I thought we were happy?

Is it me?

Joe?

Is it you?

I'm going back.

Clear!

Yusra? Do you know Yusra?

Stoneham.

Stoneham!

What is it?

It's his.

What?

It's George's.

Yankee Two Golf, this is Three Whisky Tango.

Immediate backup requested. Sparrow's nest identified.

Ready to copy, over.

'Yankee Two Golf, Affirmative, over.'

- Stoneham, I can't... - Whisky Three Golf, third down on the left...

Stoneham, shut up! I'm trying to tell what they're saying!

One male, one female, and their son. Over.

Whisky Three Tango. Negative. Just get here, can you?

Out.

They're one minute out.

The boy.

They've taken the boy.

What's happening?

How did you get this?

How did you GET this?

Was George here!?

GEORGE!

Where the hell is he?

Will you please shut up?!

Go. Go. Go!

Yusra? Where's Yusra? Yusra!

What's she saying, Armstrong? What does she keep saying?

They've taken her son Malik. They've taken him.

We're taking them in. Let's go.

LET'S GO!

You -- come with me.

Come on, come on...

- Yusuf! - Shut up!

Get her fingers off that door, Armstrong.

Just do it!

Stop! Stop or I'll shoot!

I made a cake for Mary.

I can't get it out of the tin.

You're an angel.

'Oscar Three Mike. This is Kilo One Charlie.

'Mother plus brother, Sparrow detained, over.'

Kilo One Charlie. This is Oscar Three Mike. Copy, out.

They've captured Yusra's family.

They're bringing in mother and the brother. All leave

is cancelled and I've set a curfew for off-duty personnel

and all dependents at 1800 hours.

"Personnel..."

- What? - Oh, the, er...

The army gets formal in an emergency.

Language has to be precise and accurate

so nobody misunderstands anything.

"Dependent" -- Alison?

Dependent?

What's the word you'd use?

'Oscar Three Mike. This is Kilo One Charlie. Father Sparrow down.

'CDK fire. Now five minutes away, over.'
