Long Gone Heroes

- Mr. Torres, thank you so much

for meeting with me.

Um, why don't you tell me what is happening

in your country right now?

- My people are starving.

Dying in the streets, unable to feed their families.

Inflation is at twelve hundred percent.

Chavez, now Maduro,

they have mortgaged the wealth and future

of this country and its people to foreign nations.

The worst thing to happen to Venezuela...

was discovering the ocean of oil beneath us.

- Since the sanctions were put in place

in 2017 by the US, how have things changed?

- There has been no change.

There has been more oil production and exportation than before.

They use the sanctions to justify driving up

the price per barrel.

- So when you say no change, do you mean

that the US is still operating here in Venezuela?

Yes, of course.

It's good.

Okay. Julia, make this count.

- And who is here on the ground

working on behalf of the government?

- A private contracting group. Working in tandem with our government.

They've partnered with North American companies like Keystone Oil.

To back channel the oil.

- Do you know who runs the US private contracting groups?

General Roman.

- And who in Washington is behind connecting

Keystone with Roman?

Senator Olivia Peterson.

Um,

can you confirm this?

- Your team already has.

It was verified in documents I sent over last night.

E-mails, text messages, oil contracts.

It's all there.

- We have growing concerns

about the conditions in Venezuela.

The economy is in a free fall.

The Maduro regime has made alliances with the cartels,

and the crime rate is soaring,

specifically, when it comes to crimes against women.

So I will personally be overseeing

our president's cooperative reform effort.

Any further questions, address the ambassador.

Thank you so much for your time.

- That was Senator Olivia Peterson of California

for an update on conditions.

Hey.

- What are you doing to my, my garage, Olivia?

I, uh...

What?

You know, I, I went through this moment in my mind

about a million times,

what I would say to you if I ever saw you again.

You know, all I got?

Fuck you.

You can blame me all you want.

I'm tough. I can handle it.

- You can handle it. Is that right?

Is that what you tell those people who prop you up on CNN?

See, I know the real you, the real you who fucked me.

And I lost everything

in Kandahar. - Oh, yeah.

It looks like you lost everything.

You listen to me, all right?

I know what you think happened in Kandahar.

Now, you think I'm somehow responsible,

but that is just your version and no one else's.

You're a grown man. Pretty soon you'll be an old man.

- Oh. - Oh, it's time to move on.

Put the past in the past.

- Right. - Mm-hmm.

- What do you want? - Yeah. Fuck it.

I don't know why I thought you could help.

- Help you? You came to me for help?

If six guys came in here with ski masks

wanting to haul you away, I wouldn't lift a fucking finger.

Okay asshole. Forget about me.

If they had your niece, would you do something about it?

- What are you talking about? - Julia.

They got my baby. - Who?

- After I lift weights and eat red meat,

I just want to eat my girl's pussy for like an hour.

- For an hour? - Yeah, she got a sweet spot.

I love it. - That's fucking disgusting.

You don't eat pussy?

- Oh, I eat fuckin' pussy, but, uh, 15 minutes tops.

- 15 minutes? - 15.

That's if she's lucky.

It's gotta be like, you know,

her birthday or Memorial Day

or anniversary, special shit.

On Memorial Day?

Memorial Day gets a 15-minute lick.

She a veteran? - She supports the troops

if you know what I'm saying.

Hey.

- 'Sup G. - Hey, boys.

What are we doing?

I got a situation.

It's fucked up. It's a little bit dangerous.

I'm gonna ask you guys to do something,

and if you tell me to off...

I got a niece. - The senator's kid.

- Yeah, somebody grabbed her. They're holding her.

I gotta go get her. - Who took her?

I don't know yet.

Now, why'd they take her?

She's a journalist,

wants to save the world, fix everyone's problems.

My guess is that she got too close to something down there

and she pissed off the wrong people.

And where's she at?

Venezuela.

Fuck, bro.

It's a mess down there.

- Yeah, it's fuckin' hot. It's dangerous.

Not to be insensitive, Cap,

but, uh, are you sure she's still alive?

Nah, I got no clue.

Doesn't make a difference on this one though, boys,

because she's my dead brother's only kid.

She's my blood. I'll make sure the money is solid.

- Oh, it ain't about the fuckin' money.

No, if it's personal for you, I'm in.

My boy.

I'm in, too.

So what now?

- Now I gotta go see someone about this.

And who is that, might I ask?

You know who it is.

Go ahead, say something. - I didn't say anything.

No, go ahead, say something.

- Mommy will be right back. I'm right over there.

Heather, just share with your sister.

Let her look at the ipad.

Okay.

- Hey. - Hey.

You know they lock you away

for leaving your kids unattended nowadays.

How's your guy? - Do you want my help or not?

Because you fucking called me

and I'm on double duty right now.

I have those two terrorists in the car,

and the guy is away on a golf trip.

So I'm just doing this for Olivia.

Here.

Plays golf, huh?

You're not gonna leave?

- Gunner, I lost 10 years of my life with you.

I'm gonna lose my job too?

If the seventh floor knows

that I left the building with that,

much less gave it to you, I'm done.

- Olivia knows about this? - Of course she knows.

- Why the fuck wouldn't she say anything?

I don't know.

How long they been down there?

- Since about three months before the sanctions.

DOJ, the agency. Everyone knew it was coming.

They wanted one of their own there before it did,

even if it was Roman.

- Roman' the one who has her? - Just look at that, okay?

- Fuck. - Oh, and Gunner,

the last I heard, the girl's alive.

- Hello? - Where's Olivia?

- Who is this? - Go fucking get her.

Olivia.

I think you need to take this.

- Huh, who is it? - They didn't say.

Hello?

Where are you?

- Why didn't you tell me it was Roman?

- Why does it matter? - Why does it matter?

That's why it matters. Look there.

Those three reasons, that's why it matters.

Is any of this even fuckin' real?

Oh yeah. It's real.

Because Julia's angry.

She's, she hates me, in fact.

She- - She doesn't hate you.

You're her mother. She's mad at you.

- Yeah, ever since Jim died, there's nothing I can do to...

You know, her career, this journalism, is to get back at me.

She's a good girl. You know that.

- I don't know that, Olivia. You know why?

Because I haven't seen her in 10 years,

'cause you wouldn't let me. That's why.

- Would you have even wanted to see her? - Yes. Yes.

She's my brother's kid. Of course.

- Julia went down there because she hates me.

And they took her because she's found out what I've done.

What'd you do?

- Before we sanctioned them back in 2017,

I had to double down on our presence there

so that the Russian, Iranians, Chinese
