believe you
and turn over my whole camp?
Well, under the circumstances,
yes, I believe that's the only thing
that you can do.
I hid a homing device
out there in the jungle.
My team know exactly where I am.
Now, they'll be waiting for my signal.
Now, if I give it, they'll come in slowly.
If I don't, they'll come in fast,
and you'll all be dead.
- What signal?
- Stop playing the fool.
The way I figure it, these are your choices.
You can either cut and run,
or you can wait until my team come in
and then you can try to run.
Or you can cooperate right now
and save everyone a whole lot of trouble.
I believe you left out some of my options.
One,
I could kill you and the prisoners.
Yes. Missed that one.
And two, I can simply lock you up
and wait until you're ready
to give the signal.
Yes, you could lock me up,
but I'll never give you the signal.
I don't care if you kill me.
Now, look,
I'm tired of hanging around under this sun,
playing footsie
with a half-pint would-be dictator.
Give him anything he wants.
I can't believe it! We're going home!
Okay, I want to know
who won the World Series last year.
I don't know anything
about any bloody World Series, mate.
- I'm an Australian.
- Forget it. I love you, anyway.
Yin won't give up this easy.
How large is your rescue team?
Large enough to kick Yin's ass, huh?
I'm alone.
Alone?
Yes, nobody knows I'm here, mate.
And there's nobody gonna come
and get me.
But the International Freedom House,
the Central Team, the homing device?
It's just a bluff, isn't it?
I had to tell him something.
Heard rumours about this place.
I followed Franзois in.
I'm just a lousy photographer, mate.
I needed pictures for proof.
Damn!
One thing for sure, he's got guts.
Yeah.
Nobody ever broke into a prison camp.
All right, then, let's get out.
Yeah, we'll head for the cliffs.
Anything happens to me,
I stashed some ropes under a big rock.
You can't miss it. Head for the Thai border,
100 miles due west. Come on, let's go.
Wait.
Yin may let you go,
but he certainly won't let us all go.
- What's that?
- It's Franзois coming to pick up his whores.
- Shit. He knows I'm alone.
- Well, move it!
I'm just going to give the signal, mate.
Mr Emerson.
I'm just gonna give my signal.
Damn.
I hope everyone told you
how well they have been treated.
Well, they don't love you,
but all in all they look pretty good.
- I'll be right back.
- One more moment, please.
I would like you to meet a friend of mine.
I'll meet him later.
I'm in a bit of a hurry.
I wouldn't want the Central Team
to get impatient, you know.
Franзois.
What's the matter, my friend?
You look a little nervous.
He is the goddamn guy
who's been asking questions about us.
He claims he's the point man
for a major rescue operation.
He's lying. He's alone.
I've still got the homing device
out in the jungle.
I am weary of playing footsie with you.
Take him to the tree.
For the crimes
against the people of Vietnam,
I sentence you to death.
Don't worry! It's not real!
He's just trying to scare you!
Well, he's got a lousy sense of humour!
Get up.
Get up.
Shut up, you asshole.
- You...
- We'll get him up.
Okay, you're gonna be okay.
I'm okay.
Captain Ho?
He's dying.
Yin!
Yin!
No, don't do this.
He has to.
What the hell's the difference?
Our struggle was a long one.
As I predicted, you lost.
I'm glad you finally understand
the extent of your guilt.
You do, don't you?
He don't understand shit.
Yes, Colonel Yin, I understand.
Let's get him up.
Colonel Braddock.
I believe you have forgotten something.
Now, my American POW,
I will live up to my promise
and will let you go free.
Tomorrow Franзois will be here
and will fly you to Thailand
and deliver you to your embassy.
You see, Colonel? I told you.
I will try to make your last day here
as comfortable as possible.
Here. Come into the next room.
You will stay there tonight.
I can't believe it.
It's
