* 'Quinn, Jack. Your final assignment is classification Red.' 'At 3:05pm Greenwich Mean Time, a truck loaded with plutonium was stolen from a secure US nuclear installation outside Croatia.' 'Stavros and his organisation will sell it to the Iraqis in 24 hours.' 'Your objective is to ensure the plutonium is returned to our base.' (BEEPING) Out of the way! Out of the way! There's a call for you, sir. Quinn's in. The XRT is now mobile. Wow! Quinn has 14 hours to reach the border! 'If he does make it, his resignation is final.' AAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRGGHH!! (SIRENS) (HORN) (PHONE RINGS) Jack, would you get that?! Kathryn! Your damn... cow is in my way! It's not a cow, Jack, it's a swan. Whatever it is, it's in my way. In your way (?) Your swan is beautiful. You're beautiful. Not for long, huh? You'll still be sexy. A bit rounder and a bit softer... Jack, the baby,... it's what we want, no? Of course. Bonjour, Jack. You don't believe in front doors? There's a back door, too. You should know that. Hey! Hey! How did you find me? We never lost you, my friend. So you know I'm retired. How long do you think you can sit on your ass and watch the sunset? You're a hunter. Admit it. You miss the game. You don't get it. For me, it's personal. For you, it's politics. Come on. Politics makes money. Everything's politics. You want personal, I'll give you personal. Stavros is back. And we want him alive. We want his nasty information. Names, escape routes. That's why we need you. You're the only guy who knows how he works, how he moves. Come on, Jack. This is your last shot. We've got a Delta team waiting for you in Antwerp. Face it ` you can't retire until he does. 'Is Quinn coming back or not?' 'I don't know. Maybe he really is retired.' 'If he is, we go to plan B.' Move the seat up. It's a little tight in the rear. But that's generally true of the CIA, isn't it? So, you post a few drug cartels in Third World countries. You testify in front of Congress, they make you a deputy director. Get to the point. Get to the point. But you're nothing but a minor leaguer. You're only good for one thing. You got Quinn back in the game ` that'd be challenging. Pull over. By the way, I left you a present. Ohh! Get me outta here! Argh! Aaarrrgghh! (AMBIENT MUSIC / CHATTER) Ciao, bella. You look fine. 'Don't tell me it's not dangerous.' You're gonna be back in 36 hours. (DANCE MUSIC) I'm looking for Yaz. I'm looking for Yaz. I bet that hurt. That hurt. These hurt too. But I kinda like this one here though. Who are you? Who are you? I'm the man. You? I hope you don't judge a person by the way he looks. I hate that. Who does your hair? Siegfried or Roy (?) Last guy who made fun of my hair is still trying to pull his head out of his ass. I don't wanna know about your sex life. Well, this has been fun. Now, who in the hell are you? Jack Quinn. If you wanna dance, ask me nicely. I just wanted to check to see if it's you, Mr Quinn. Damn! The legend walks. I heard you dropped out of the game, Jack. Whoa! Santa's workshop. Who's that? Rudolph? I may not have reindeers, but I do have the best elves. Christmas shopping for bad boys? Christmas shopping for bad boys? I don't play with the bad boys any more. Only the good guys, baby. Just tell me what you need. I got shit here so new, even I don't know I have it. Offence gets the glory. But defence wins the game. I take cash, gold... Did you open that? Yeah. Fire in the hole! But I don't take personal cheques. I have a rule here ` you break it, you bought it. Got it? Gentlemen, this is Delta One. Forget you've ever seen him. This is Mr Yamir. He has information that Stavros will be surfacing tomorrow, somewhere around here. An amusement park. Where's my deadeye? That would be me, sir. You know how to use it? It shoots tranquilliser darts. Can you shoot a man at 200 yards? With this, I can shoot the dick off a bird. He's like a snake. If you look into his eyes, he'll get you in the back. When we ID Stavros, move into position. You only have one shot. Two darts will kill a man, three will kill a rhino. And we want Stavros alive. (FAIRGROUND MUSIC / YELLING) (TIGER ROARS) "Delta Five, check the two Arab women by the carousel." "On it." (YELLING) (ROARS) Something's happening. "Bravo One, we have Stavros. Grey Mercedes." "We've got three men moving." Let him in, Bravo. Delta Two and Five. "The rest of you hold." "Roger, Delta One." This is way too easy. "He's in my sight. I have coverage on him. Ready to fire." "That's not Stavros!" Stavros is a lefty! It's not him! The driver. Find the driver. "En route to ground position." Come on, my friends. Come on. Come on. Here we go. That's right. "We're securing the exit." I got him. "We're securing the exit." I got him. "Roger." "At the tiger cage. Who's the woman?" "She's hiding something. Could be a bomb." My God. "I'm locked on, Delta One." "Delta Two and Five in position." "We're ready to take him." "We're ready to take him." "Delta 1?" "What are you waiting for, Delta 1?" "Ready to move in." "Delta One, I'm waiting for your command." "You have your shot. What are you waiting for?" (GROANS) (YELLING) Clear out! Clear out! Too late, clown boy. "Move to position three." Aaaaaaaaarrrggghhh!! (PANTS) (ROARS) (SIREN) (HEARTBEAT) (BEEPING) (RAPID BEEPING / HEARTBEAT INCREASES) (BABIES WAIL) His mother told me... that his favourite thing in the world used to be when he'd go riding his little pony on weekends. He loved riding that little horse. That little horse is gonna miss my boy. I'm a professional, Quinn. I've killed. I've killed a lot. But most of the bastards I've killed deserved to die. My little boy was 6 years old, mister. My little boy was 6 years old. Now, that makes it personal, mister. (BABY CRIES) (DISTRESSED CRIES) * (WHIRRING) "Candidate for Colony residency: Quinn, Jack, Paul." "Born: 1959." "Entered foreign service at 22." "Advanced training: demolitions, tracking, psychological counter measures." "Speciality: anti-terrorism." "Last assignment: Stavros acquisition." "Video segment A-19." "Antwerp interdiction." "Agent Quinn achieved clean opportunity to acquire Alpha, but target Alpha escaped." "You went soft." "Soft agents are a liability." "You've been assigned to The Colony." No-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o! No-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o! "If you fail to cooperate, you have an alternative." "Nerve gas is quite painless, but effective." "But why bother? You are dead already."

Thank you, Mr Quinn. Aaaaaarrrrrrrghhh!! (GRUNTS) Jack. Glad you decided to join us. Alex Goldsmythe. The Tax Man. You were killed s-s-s-six years ago. God! It's been six years already? Oh, well. Climb onboard. Some friends are waiting to meet you. Gentlemen! Come and meet the famed Jack Quinn. Come and meet the famed Jack Quinn. Heard you made it, Quinn. Molshe Levant. You died in Lebanon. Beirut, actually. Everybody,... all agents... or ex-agents. Or ex-enemies. We're too valuable to kill and too dangerous to set free. Welcome to The Colony. Quinn. Staal. I understand. Stop, Staal! The violence is not approved! I thought I'd killed him in Tuzla. Apparently not well enough. I really dislike that man. Jack, you must wear this at all times. Simple device. Part pager, part timer. Lets you know where to be and for how long. When you hear its signal, you must respond. We're a think tank, Jack. We're linked into every law enforcement database in the world. We analyse terrorist incidents and advise our client governments. We are the last line of defence against global terrorism. And nobody even knows we exist. Ah. What's on the menu for today? This is the wreckage of a Global Air 747 en route from San Francisco to Seoul, South Korea. Our image generator is interpreting signals from the crash site. Headset on, hand on the scanner at all times. "Attention. We have a feed coming in from Washington DC." "I have a brief statement concerning the Global Air tragedy." "But I won't be taking any questions." "Of the 176 passengers onboard, there are no survivors." "The CIA is reporting the plane was downed by the North Koreans in a terrorist attack." "The Secretary will hold a briefing regarding the United States' response." Koreans are denying responsibility while the US President consults his allies. (BEEPING) "Jack, your usefulness depends on your ability to analyse and interpret data in times of crisis." "This is The Colony's reason to exist, Jack." Thank you. The plane explodes from internal malfunction. Very fast. It's gone. "We've just intercepted a transmission of Global 277's cockpit voice recorder." "Pacific Centre, we have unscheduled traffic at heading 329." (EXPLOSION) My, my. Not a pleasant prospect, Koreans having that technology. Anyone with an alternative? Anyone with an alternative? (CHATTER) Anyone? Analysis confirms the report. Molshe, you buy it? "I'm not sure." He's lying. He's covering something up. They must know something about the shutdown. They must know something about the shutdown. Re-examine the satellite images. Hold it there. What's that? It's a shadow. Bingo. An AWACS. "No. An F-4 Weasel." "Recreate the simulation to include this possibility." "It might be hidden from the scanners." North Koreans picks up the F-4 on radar, but shoot down a passenger jet. The Americans were using the jumbo jet as cover for a data recon weapons test. "They were set up for the Americans to eavesdrop on the military base." Inspired. Nice call, Jack. Underwater lasers. Lasers. Lasers. Starting 1m below the surface, interlocking lasers destroy anything. If they don't get you, the undertow will. They've thought of everything. If they don't get you, the undertow will. They've thought of everything. No one ever escaped? No one? No one. Last one to try was a chap named Bryce. This was before the lasers were installed. Poor fellow didn't survive 48 hours. His Guardian took care of him. Each resident is assigned a Guardian. Never know who he is. It's the Guardian's job to observe his Assignment's attitude, production, that sort of thing. If the resident escapes, the Guardian is sent to kill him. How did you hide this place for so long? (CHUCKLES) Masking devices. We are virtually invisible. (RAIN POURS HEAVILY) (CRASH OF THUNDER) (RINGS) "Hello, Kathryn. Kathryn?" Hello? "I hope I'm not disturbing you. Can we talk?" "This is Maretta from the Galleria Luna in Rome." "We spoke last week. Wonderful news." "We'd like to arrange an exhibition of your work." "You are surprised, yes? I understand." "I'll send you a plane ticket in the morning." * (BEEPS) You have five minutes to check in at your cottages, gentlemen. (CHATTER) Seven, six, five, four, three, two, one. (BELL CHIMES) (TAXI DRIVER SPEAKS IN ITALIAN) Grazie. Hi. I'm Maretta. We spoke on the phone. Yes. I'm glad you accepted our proposal. I'm glad you accepted our proposal. I'm flattered. It's very generous. But it will be so difficult ` You don't want to show your work here? You have other offers? It's been only four months since my husband... It's been only four months since my husband... It must be hard for you, but perhaps this will open a new chapter in your life. I'd have to move to Rome and sell the cottage. Rome is so expensive. Rome is so expensive. Stay with us at The Regina. We have plenty of room. I'll make sure you and the baby have the best care in Rome. Tonight, you will meet the gallery owner. He's been waiting a long time to meet you. (GROANS) This has all the earmarks of a Stavros operation. It confirms our intelligence of Stavros' current activities. What we need to know is who is paying for his talents. In view of this, we anxiously await your analysis. What's unusual is no one's claimed responsibility. Location: Barcelona. Algerians have been flexing muscle there. The Algerians can't afford Stavros. Maybe it's personal vengeance. Stavros working on his own. "That's not his style. Why would he? Suppose it was some psycho. A random act." "There are several groups in Spain." "What do you think, Jack?" Jack? No. No? "Jack, we await your comment." It's not Stavros. It's a copycat. I had my chance at Stavros. I also failed. He's my last unpaid debt. He runs around loose and I'm stuck on this rock. You were our last great hope. The last one still playing the game who was good enough to get him. What does he know about this place? We're not sure. That's why he's so dangerous. Agencies around the world hired him when they needed someone for difficult work. It's ironic. When he was our ally, he was heroic. Working for someone else, he's a scallywag. Face it. He's fallen out of fashion. I'm afraid we've had to part with your beautiful swan. I took the liberty of... doubling the price. My husband loved that swan. He thought it was a cow. (GRUNTS AND GROANS) (STRAINS) Yeah! (Yeah.) You have five minutes to check in at your cottages, gentlemen. Five, four, three, two,... Thank you, Mr Quinn. AAAAAAAAARRRGGGHHH! All right, let's go!

I need some mean toys. I need some mean toys. I got something new you'll love. It'll make you the baddest boy on the block. Guaranteed. Check this out. Laser sight. Fully automatic. You'll need a holster for that gun. Oh, these are nice. Can you fly a plane? Can you fly a plane? Like a bird. But my ass is staying on the ground, brother. I'm having a sale on new gas grenades. Did you bring cash? Did you bring cash? I'll pay you later. Thank you very much. Thank you very much. I'm good for it. Dead men don't get credit. I'll give you three CIA bank account numbers. When I get the merchandise, I'll give you the access codes. I don't know. I look at you, I see nothing but trouble. What the hell. I kinda like trouble. What do you mean, no parachute? My creation is better than a parachute. Are you sure this works? Of course. You sure? You sure? Of course. I'm positive it works. Yeah? Yeah! Look, you die, you get a full refund. Trust me. Good luck. Good luck. Thanks. AAAAAAAAAAAARRGGHH! Give me a hand here! How about a foot?! How about a foot?! That's the best you can do?! Let's try something else. Let's try something else. That's love, baby. Hey, watch your hands! That's what I call hang time. What's wrong with you?! Are you nuts?! You're crazier than my hairstylist! Did you test it?! Did you?! Don't need to!

They're on the autostrada to Rome. "That checks with our information." "Quinn's wife is at the Hotel Regina." Splendid. We've got a game going. * (TANGO MUSIC / CHATTER) Bring it around to the rear. Anything for Jack Quinn? Si, signore. Right here. Thanks. Come to the back of the hotel. A bellman will meet you. Si. This was at the front desk for you. Well, it's not a bomb. Maybe it's the access codes. I'd love to get paid. Those bank accounts are fronts. Empty. That figures, Quinn. Why lie to me? I bet The Colony doesn't even exist, does it?! It's not about The Colony. What the hell is this? A sonogram of my son. Stavros has my boy. You go back to Antwerp. I'll get your money. I pay my debts. Quinn! Keep your money! Why didn't you tell me before? What do you care? You always play defence, right? Time to get off the bench. The best defence is a strong offence. Right? Right. Stavros is making the rules. If we play his game, my wife and son are dead. You gonna send an email message? Every agency will intercept it. What's the plan? What's the plan? I don't have one. But Stavros doesn't know that. He'll do what he thinks I would do. So, he has to check it out? So, he has to check it out? When he does, he'll take us right to Kathryn. Stavros, look at this. Ah, Quinn's clever. Very sensitive man. Another time, another place. It's just too late. (KATHRYN GROANS) I'm taking you to the hospital. You'll be safer there. Copy that. I'm in position. Here, sir, have a look. This is a circus. Everybody's here. There's the MOSSAD.

I heard them. Go! What are you doing...? This is a hospital. No running. Quiet! Let me help you down. Jack? What's going on? No, Jack! She saved me! They said you were dead. It's OK. I'm here. I'm here. It's OK. Stavros. Where is he? Where's our son? Where is my son? I know where they are. You go get your boy. I'll take care of her. Thank you. You owe me. * (BABY CRIES) (CRIES) Get rid of it or the party's over. You know, Jack,... I can call you Jack, can't I? I'll bet there's not a single night you can't close your eyes tight enough... without seeing my little boy's face. I'm gonna give you a chance to save your son. If you live today, you'll get to know your son. And if you don't,... I'll raise him as my own. You know, men are strong, Jack, but the tiger is stronger. Watch your step, Jack. There's nothing wrong with stepping on a mine. It's stepping off that counts. Yah! Come on! Come on! Yah! Quinn!! Where did he come from? Yaz! The crosses are mines! Don't go off and party without me. I'll be back. Got you! (GUN CLICKS) Aaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrgghh!! Jack! Baby's safe. Let's get the hell out or this place is gonna blow. You take care of my son. I'll take care of Stavros. (BABY CRIES) (BABY CRIES) Lift your foot, my tall friend, and that mine will turn you into red paint. You got, er, big feet, Mr Quinn. You better be careful where you put them. Looks like you're the bitch now, Stavros. I forgot to tell you. I hope you don't mind. You dug these holes, put up markers. And I know mines don't come cheap, but I moved a couple of your crosses. Sorry. Yaz! Behind you! Oh, sh...! Yaz! Where's my son?! Where is he?! I'm looking! He was right here! Jack! (TIGER ROARS) Aaaaaaarrrrrrgghh!! Get down! Is everybody OK? (It's me ` Daddy.) (Yeah.) I want to remember my Roman holiday. Give me a souvenir. Cut a piece of your hair. Oh, and your shirt. Quinn, you may like this. Here's a souvenir from me. Maybe my coin'll be lucky for you too. (CAR PULLS OFF) I'm not giving you any pieces of my hair, Mr Goldsmythe.
