INT. CZECH POLICE BUILDING - BASEMENT TRAINING AREA - DAY
Down in the basement there is a SHOOTING RANGE along one wall . A squad of CZECH COPS is BLASTING AWAY . They become distracted by the noise in the middle of the room . One of the metal boxes has been dropped by a Cop . The rest are spread out in front of Xander , Slovo and Shavers .
SHAVERS
Back off, just go away you klutz. Alright, here's the story. The items in these cases belong to me. I designed them, built them, and was going to use them in the field myself until you showed up.
XANDER
I stole your beat, huh? Guess you forgot to brown - nose the right people.
SHAVERS
Is that supposed to be funny? I'm not laughing. I've worked for ten years to get my shot at being a field agent, funny boy. And ar the last minute I get bumped by you, some reject from the Ozzfest.
XANDER
Why do n't you show me some gear before you get hurt.
SHAVERS
Listen to you. Right away, sir, anything you say, sir.
Shavers pops open the first metal case . Inside are various GADGETS laid into the molded carbon fiber lining .
XANDER
What is all this? I did n't even order some of this stuff.
Shavers holds up a small METAL BALL .
SHAVERS
You're gon na need it, rookie, trust me.
The metal ball unrolls into a six legged ROBOT INSECT .
SHAVERS
An all - terrain mobile video monitoring system for surveillance. I call it the `` Roach Cam''. See the little camera it's got for a head?
Xander picks it up .
XANDER
Kinda looks like you.
Shavers snatches it back . He puts on a METAL GLOVE , it 's fingers are SHARP TALONS .
SHAVERS
`` Terminator'' climbing claws.
He CLAMPS the claw onto the metal case . It holds fast .
SHAVERS
Miniature power cams set in on contact, giving you a sure grip on any surface.
XANDER
They come in any other styles or colors?
He tosses the glove aside , pulls out a DART GUN .
SHAVERS
This is your standard dart gun.
XANDER
That one I'm real familiar with.
Shavers displays a case of DARTS .
SHAVERS
You've got your chromium knock - out dart, microphone listening dart, explosive dart, even one with a splatter blood packet, whatever you need. They also come in a special 9mm casing for use with your service pistol.
Xander pulls out some SUPER BINOCULARS .
SHAVERS
Multi - view binoculars. Nine different enhanced vision modes, plus a digital camera.
Xander looks through them , starts cycling through the different modes . BINOCULAR P.O.V. - we see the various modes as Xander scans the grounds .
SHAVERS
Infrared, starlight. Even a special `` penetrator'' mode to see through walls, curtains, almost anything.
Xander aims at the shooting range . BINOCULAR P.O.V. - we see through the clothes of the FEMALE COPS on the shooting range . -LRB- PG - 13 style , of course -RRB- . We can even see the INNER WORKINGS of their GUNS . One of the Female Cops turns and gives Xander an approving look .
XANDER
I think I'll hang on to these.
SHAVERS
Think again, that's government property. You have to sign for everything. I've got one more that was n't on your list.
Shavers pulls out a JUMPSUIT .
XANDER
From the Beastie Boys collection?
SHAVERS
It's a stakeout suit. It's got food, water, recording gear, anything you need for covert spying. It's all - weather, fire retardant, and if you give this buckle a sharp pull, the whole outfit deploys into a parachute.
XANDER
You're joking, right?
Shavers just gives him a deadpan look .
SHAVERS
Now that I've given you the overview, we're going to spend the next couple hours going into extensive operational detail.
XANDER
I thought that was in detail.
As Shavers drones on , Xander hangs his head .

EXT. WAREHOUSE DISTRICT - DAY
The TEN BLACK MARKET EUROPEAN SPORTS CARS are loaded on two TRANSPORT TRUCKS . Mafiya BODYGUARDS keep watch . The Ivans -LRB- in Teamster garb -RRB- inspect the cars while Xander supervises . Anders hovers around him .
ANDERS
So what you think? Beautiful!
Sitting in an OFFICE watching are Yorgi , Kirill and Petra . Petra has a LAPTOP .
YORGI
Has it arrived yet?
Petra checks her computer . ON SCREEN she 's monitoring their BANK ACCOUNT .
PETRA
Nothing. He had two days.
YORGI
Perhaps he is not all he says he is.
Outside the Ivans nod approval and Xander heads to the office . Yorgi looks to kirill , who puts his hand on his PISTOL . Xander opens the door .
XANDER
Very nice. I'm impressed.
YORGI
I'm somewhat less so. We seem to have a bit of a problem.
Just then Petra 's computer BEEPS and the MONEY floods into their account . Xander holds up a CELL PHONE and smiles .
XANDER
I had to inspect the merchandise first.
YORGI
Of course.
He nods for Kirill to stand down . OUTSIDE - the two transport trucks are driven off by the Ivans . As they pull out they reveal ANOTHER CAR under a COVER .
XANDER
What's this?
YORGI
This is a gift. From me to you.
Anders pulls off the cover , revealing a cherry '72 PONTIAC GTO .
YORGI
It's a little nothing, you take it.
Xander checks out his new ride . Yorgi gets in the passenger seat .
YORGI
Come on, get in.
Xander sits behind the wheel and STARTS IT UP . The big engine ROARS .
XANDER
You're alright, Yorgi.
Next door to the warehouse sits an ABANDONED BUILDING . Up on the sloped roof , Slovo spies down on the transaction . He 's got a camera with a big zoom lens .
SLOVO
Smile, bychara.
Slovo snaps a few pictures but his view is obscured . To get a better vantage , he JUMPS DOWN onto a lower part of the roof . CRUNCH ! His foot BREAKS THROUGH THE SHABBY ROOF TILE . Down below , Kirill hears the noise .
KIRILL
Yorgi!
They all look to the abandoned building . Through the second floor window they can see Slovo 's leg poking through the ceiling . Xander is taken aback .
YORGI
What in the hell?
Yorgi turns to Xander , goes for his pistol . Thinking fast , Xander does the same . They draw simultaneously and hold the guns to each other 's heads as they sit in the car . Petra , Kirill and Anders draw as well , all of them covering Xander .
YORGI
What's going on, my friend?
XANDER
You tell me! You got a sniper up there or what?
YORGI
He's not with us, Xander. He must be with you.
XANDER
( he cocks the hammer . )
Bullshit! You get your boy off that roof or I swear to God I'm gon na give you another hole to breathe out of.
Yorgi stares , finally believes him . He lowers his gun .
YORGI
Get him! Find out who he is!
By now Slovo is down the fire escape . He hits the ground and goes running down the street . The Anarchy 99 crew heads for their cars . Xander SPINS the cylinder on his REVOLVER .
XANDER
I've got him. Buckle up.
The GTO peels out .

EXT. STREET - DAY
Slovo is huffing and puffing as fast as he can when Xander comes skidding around the corner . He looks back and sees the speeding GTO .
YORGI
That's the cop from the club!
Xander does the only thing he can . He puts the car sideways and aims out the window as he slides to a stop . Slovo turns and BLAM ! Xander SHOOTS Slovo right in the chest . IN SLO - MO : a spray of BLOOD erupts from his chest and Slovo falls backwards , his face frozen in a look of shock and betrayal . The smoking shell clatters to the ground . Slovo blinks up at Xander , gasping for words , then lays still . Xander hops out , rifles through Slovo 's pockets . The other Anarchy 99 cars pull up , the whole group looking on .
YORGI
What are you doing? Get in the car!
Xander heads back to the GTO and the cars peel out .

I do n't believe it! You ca n't shoot a cop in the middle of the street!
XANDER
( grim . )
Had to do what I had to do.
He pulls out the roll of FILM . Yorgi laughs .
YORGI
You say you get a million, you get the million. Some cop gives us shit, he's dead. Jesus Christ, man, you're hard - core!

INT. NIGHTCLUB - NIGHT
It 's a crowded basement rave club . Hot and sweaty RAVERS dance in provocative outfits . The Anarchy 99 group is standing on the best booth , right on the packed dance floor . Surrounding them are a handful of MAFIYA BODYGUARDS who stand at attention like the Secret Service . Anders swings from a water pipe and then drops onto the table , smashing glass . A DRUNK GUY tries to pull Petra onto the dance floor and she PUNCHES him . The Bodyguards drag the dude out for a proper thrashing . Yorgi shatters a BOTTLE against the wall .
YORGI
Total chaos, man! Welcome to Anarchy 99!
XANDER
What's `` Anarchy 99''?
YORGI
It's all this craziness! It's what we've been living since 99, when we left the Army. One of our brothers died in Grozny and we said the hell with this shit. What for? He dies for what? Politics? Who's politics? Not ours.
XANDER
You wan na see my politics?
Xander shows him a TATTOO on his arm . It shows PLANET EARTH with a giant SCREW through it .
XANDER
Screw the world. If I'm gon na die for something, it better be bitches and money.
YORGI
That's what I'm talking about, man! That's why Anarchy 99 was born.
Yorgi rolls up his sleeve , revealing an Anarchy 99 tat -LRB- a circled `` A '' with `` 99 '' underneath -RRB- .
YORGI
To us it means no walls, no speed limits, no jails. It's everybody does what he wants. People think democracy is freedom but they do n't have a clue. There's an old punk song. It says : `` America stands for freedom, but if you think you're free.''
XANDER
. try walking into a deli and urinating on the cheese''. ` Anarchy Burger' by the Vandals.
YORGI
You got it, man. It's stupid but it's true. True freedom is when you do whatever you want anytime you want. That's when you know you're living, man.
XANDER
How you gon na do that with government and rules everywhere?
YORGI
Easy. You get enough money that you grow an ass big enough for the whole world to kiss.
Yorgi throws a fistful of money onto the dance floor . The Xed out ravers swat it around like confetti .
YORGI
You hang with us, buddy, taste some freedom! Petra! Dance with this guy!
Yorgi melts into the dance floor crowd , leaving Xander alone with Petra . She gets up grumpily and starts dancing . Xander joins her , but she wo n't even look at him .
XANDER
This is great, dancing with the back of your head.
She reluctantly turns around .
XANDER
If you got a problem with me, why are we dancing?
PETRA
Yorgi asked me to.
XANDER
You do everything Yorgi says?
PETRA
Go to hell.
XANDER
It's gon na be like that, huh? You got all bent out of shape as soon as he started dancing with someone else. Why's that?
PETRA
Mind your business.
XANDER
Did you guys used to date? That's it, right? He broke your heart and you're still soft on him. That's funny, it do n't seem to fit with a tough broad like you.
She glares at him and walks away . Xander follows .
XANDER
Where are you going?
PETRA
Why are you still hanging around? Your business is finished, you should go home.
XANDER
I was invited. What's your story?
PETRA
I do n't know who you are or where you come from, but I do n't like you. You ask too many questions.
There 's a big line outside the `` ladies '' and no line at the `` men 's '' . Petra heads into the Men 's Room . Some DUDE whistles at her . She pushes him out of the way and enters a stall . Xander leans on the sink .
XANDER
Come on, do n't front like that. You'll put a guy right off you.
PETRA
Do n't even bother, X man, I'm not your type.
XANDER
That right? Why's that?
The stall door flies open and Petra marches out .
PETRA
My chest is too small and my brain is too big.
She shoves him to the door and stomps back to her stall . Xander walks back out , shaking his head and laughing . Across the room , Viktor shoves the D.J. out of the way and puts on `` ANARCHY BURGER '' by the Vandals . The rave dance is interrupted by the pounding punk beat .
YORGI
Xander, check it out! The revolution begins!
Viktor and Anders swiftly turn the dance floor into a violent mosh pit . Xander ca n't help it , he actually likes these guys .
YORGI
Let's get some air, man.
Yorgi and Xander head outside . A moment later , Kirill hurries out another door .

EXT. PRAGUE RIVERFRONT - NIGHT
It 's late . Yorgi and Xander stroll along the river .
XANDER
You got a great set - up here Yorgi. You really know how to live.
YORGI
It's a beautiful town, Prague. It's been good to me.
XANDER
I've been here before, when I was a kid. My old man was in the service, we used to live on the Army base in Hamburg.
YORGI
You, an Army brat? I do n't see that one at all. Did you join the service as well?
XANDER
Hell no. My dad was a straight up tin soldier. Somehow he pissed this general off and got himself dishonorably discharged. Had a court martial and everything. The charges were total bullshit, so he was sure he'd get his name cleared, but it did n't happen.
YORGI
Connections and politics, it's the same everywhere.
XANDER
My old man, he bought into the system, and it screwed him. So he swallowed a bullet. Me, I do n't believe in nothing I ca n't see and touch.
The camera suddenly ZOOMS across the city , flying over streets and houses until , half a mile away , it finds Kirill in a window with his SNIPER RIFLE . P.O.V. THROUGH SCOPE - Xander 's head is in the crosshairs . The scope pans over to Yorgi , who looks INTO CAMERA and gives a small signal , calling off the hit . BACK ON YORGI AND XANDER Yorgi looks up at a `` PRAGUE PEACE CONFERENCE '' banner .
YORGI
Next week these idiots are having a peace conference here. What the hell are they going to talk about? It's the system itself that causes all the world's problems. You're okay, buddy. Come on, it's getting early.
They stroll off and Kirill stands down .

There 's cool fish tanks , a pool table , PS2 on a flatscreen and spray paint and holes all over the walls . SERVANTS welcome them with food and Yorgi 's SECRETARY gives him important messages .
YORGI
( sorting through messages . )
Not bad, yes? The original owners, they just one day decide to move out.
Anders starts pounding on a drumset . Petra kicks a soccer ball at him .
PETRA
Yeb vas, z ` opa. Shut up!
Yorgi paws at a Stripper .
YORGI
I've got meetings this afternoon, I've got to get some sleep. Just pick a girl.
XANDER
That's alright, I'm kinda tired.
YORGI
You want to insult me? This is my hospitality. Pick one.
Xander points at one of the Strippers . She 's wearing a fashionable FLAK JACKET .
YORGI
Good, now find a room to crash in.
Petra , show him . The surly Petra opens a door , revealing a hall of doors . Xander and Flak Jacket follow .
XANDER
You gon na tuck us in?
She just gives him a nasty look , walks into her room and slams the door . Xander scratches his head and picks a room . The others shuffle off to their beds with their Strippers .

Listen, no offense, but I'm not in the market right now, okay? You can stay here, but let's not -
He trails off as she steps out of the bathroom . She 's wearing just a G - string and the flak jacket .
XANDER
You do n't understand a word I'm saying, do you?
She just smiles at him sweetly and pulls his shirt off . She looks at the ENGAGEMENT RING still pierced through his nipple and gives a puzzled look .
XANDER
Stupid, right? That's what I was trying to tell you. I just got out of this heavy thing.
She kisses him and lets the flak jacket fall -LRB- PG - 13 style -RRB- .
XANDER
The things I have to do for my country.
He gives in and starts making out with her .

What are you doing?
He turns , sees Petra standing in the doorway with a GUN .
XANDER
Looking for a phone book. I want to call a cab. Unless you wan na give me a ride?
She shuts the door , advances , staring him down .
PETRA
Who are you?
XANDER
We hung out last night, remember?
PETRA
I also remember you drove your car here. Who are you really? Make no mistake, I will shoot you and not feel bad about it. Who are you working for?
XANDER
Hey, take it easy. I'm just a dude trying to make a buck.
She SLAPS him , hard .
PETRA
Bullshit. I see you look at everything, study everything, ask questions. I know exactly what you're doing. Empty your pockets.
XANDER
You've got to relax, baby, you're paranoid.
She SLAPS him again and Xander goes for her gun . Before he can pry it from her hand , she 's pulled another gun from nowhere and has it jammed against his neck . He lets go .
XANDER
Hey, you're good.
PETRA
Maybe we should start again, yes? I know so little about you, except that you're not what you say you are.
XANDER
That makes two of us then, sweetheart, because I ai n't buying your bullshit either. You're not like them, I can see it in your eyes. So you tell me, who's bullshitting who?

INT. YORGI'S BEDROOM - DAY
There are THREE STRIPPERS asleep in bed . Yorgi is sitting at his COMPUTER in his underwear . He 's hacked in to the CZECH POLICE network .
YORGI
Something bothers me about you, Mr. Xander Cage.
He looks around a bit , does n't find what he 's looking for . He sits up , getting pissed .
YORGI
Get Kirill. Now!
She heads out . Yorgi goes to the bathroom , splashes water on his face . Kirill enters , still half asleep .
KIRILL
What's the problem?
YORGI
I'm inside the police mainframe. Do you see anything?
Kirill studies the screen while Yorgi pulls on clothes .
KIRILL
What?
YORGI
I've searched their E - mail. No funeral announcement, no obituary, no call - to - arms. Nothing on the news, even. I swear I saw a cop get shot yesterday. How come no one is talking about it?
Kirill looks back at the screen . Nothing there .
YORGI
I also check the wire transfer. I follow the money back to it's source, but there is no source. It comes from nowhere. First they bring CIA, then British SAS, now maybe they plumb the lower depths. Maybe now they send someone who looks like us. Maybe someone like our houseguest Mr. X.

PETRA
Go to hell!
XANDER
Look at you. You're helping run things now. You're a gangster. I bet that snuck up on you. You woke up one day and you were a criminal.
She pulls back the hammer on her gun .
XANDER
It's cool, I feel you. I might even be able to help. Here, let me show you something. You wan na see what's in my pocket, I'll show you.
He makes a move and she jabs the gun at him . She reaches into the pocket for him and pulls out his little data recorder .
PETRA
What are you?
XANDER
I'm an information gatherer. You wan na go somewhere and talk about it?

INT. ROMANTIC RESTAURANT - DAY
This is a beautiful and historic Prague location with WINDOWS and a nice view . It 's rather fancy and PACKED with UPSCALE PATRONS . Petra and Xander sit in the middle of the room , sticking out badly in their grungy clothes . A WAITER takes their order .
PETRA
Perogies, potato pancakes, fried goose livers, the sausage plate and a pot of Turkish coffee.
Xander shakes his head .
XANDER
I'm just gon na have a garden salad. Oil and balsamic vinegar on the side.
The Waiter takes off . Petra puffs on a cigarette , staring at Xander .
PETRA
That's how you eat? It's like a gerbil.
XANDER
( shrugs . )
I'm from L.A.
PETRA
So why do n't you tell me something about who you gather information for. They obviously have very deep pockets. Are you from a rival clan?
XANDER
Let's just say I'm freelancing and leave it at that.
PETRA
Whoever sent you knew what they were doing. You and Yorgi are practically twins. Two nihilistic fashion victims who make a lot of noise but do n't say much.
XANDER
Do n't judge a comic book by it's cover.
PETRA
You agree with a lot of what he says, do n't you.
XANDER
I know where he's coming from. The only thing I really do n't get is why he dumped you. Up until I found that out, I thought his judgment was pretty sound.
PETRA
Do n't even start. I'll be honest, I do n't trust you. Bur lets pretend for a minute that what you say is true, that I want to leave. What can you do about it?
XANDER
The people I know want facts, the kinds of things an insider would know. They're interested in putting Anarchy 99 out of business.
PETRA
All I have to do is risk my life providing you with these facts.
XANDER
We could work together. Then maybe we could both get the hell out of here. There's a beach in Bora Bora with my name on it.
PETRA
A beach named X? That I'd like to see.
XANDER
So there you have it. I guess you just have to ask yourself, how bad to you want out?
She thinks on it . Then her cell phone RINGS .
PETRA
( into phone . )
Da!
KIRILL
( O.S . )
( on phone . )
Listen very carefully, Petra. We think Cage may be an American agent, do you understand what I'm telling you?
PETRA
( into phone . )
Yes.
KIRILL
( O.S . )
( on phone . )
Do n't worry, I've got your back. I'm right across the street, above the bakery. Just bring him outside and let me do the rest.
Kirill hangs up . She looks back at Xander , shell shocked .
XANDER
What's up? Is there a problem?
She studies his eyes , decides to risk it .
PETRA
They tell me you're an American agent.
XANDER
What are you talking about?
PETRA
There's no more time for games. They made you. There's a sniper out front waiting to put a bullet in your eye. Tell me if it's true.
XANDER
It's a long story, but yeah, more or less.
PETRA
Jesus Christ. You're going to have to go out the back. The data that you copied with your toy. Tomorrow, at six o'clock. Look it up. We're taking a trip. Be there at six and you'll have plenty to tell your people.
XANDER
If I go out the back, he'll know you've warned me.
PETRA
That's alright, I'll figure something out.
XANDER
Not an option. Just get up slowly like everything's cool. Petra, trust me. You just hung yourself out to dry for me, I'm not gon na let you down.

EXT. ROMANTIC RESTAURANT - DAY
Xander 's timed it perfectly so that just as they get to the door , a BUS passes by . Kirill keeps focused , waiting for the bus to pass . P.O.V. THROUGH SCOPE - Xander 's head is sporadically visible through the bus windows . Kirill 's finger tightens on the trigger . As soon as the bus passes he FIRES ! But Xander 's not there , he 's ducked down to tie his shoe . CRASH ! The glass door behind him shatters . Feigning surprise , Xander PUNCHES PETRA IN THE FACE and sprints down the block . He runs bent low , the parked cars protecting him from the sniper . Kirill fires anyway , taking out car windows . At the end of the block is a long staircase with a METAL RAIL down the middle . As he runs by an outdoor restaurant Xander snatches the SERVING TRAY from a startled WAITER , sending food and drink flying . He hops on the serving tray like it 's a skateboard and does a RAIL - SLIDE down the length of the stairs . He 's moving too fast for Kirill . He jumps off at the bottom and the tray POPS UP INTO THE AIR . Kirill BLASTS it like a clay pigeon . By now Xander is out of sight . Kirill pounds his rifle in frustration . Petra gets to the top of the stairs . She gives Kirill a `` Where did he go ? '' look . Her nose is bloody , helping to sell her performance . Then she turns and looks off after Xander . She sees his GTO speeding away .

EXT. NORWEGIAN FJORDS - LATE AFTERNOON
We 're looking down at a SHIP moving through the fjord , seen from high above . It 's towing a SMALLER BOAT behind it . An airplane ? No , we 're at the top of the Trollveggen , Norway 's legendary `` Troll Wall '' . It 's a near 5,000 foot sheer drop to the ocean . Six figures stand at the edge of the barren cliff . They wear webbed `` squirrel '' jumpsuits , helmets and parachutes . On each thigh they have pistols and on their chests they have silenced MP - 5 sub - machine guns . Together they stare down at the ship . Petra is among them . She looks down at her watch . It is precisely 5:59 PM . She glances around . The top of the cliff is rocky and flat . Xander is nowhere to be seen . FIFTY YARDS AWAY - we see Xander sneaking forward military style . He 's got his `` stakeout suit '' on and is keeping low . HE CHECKS HIS WATCH : `` 6 PM '' The members of Anarchy 99 put on their goggles and , without saying a word , they leap off the Troll Wall . Xander runs to the edge and looks down . He sees the group freefailing down the sheer cliff face .
XANDER
Very nice.
The six plummet away from him at incredible speed . In a hard arch , they peak at 120 m.p.h. Then , using the webbed wings under their arms and between their legs , they go into aerodynamic `` track '' positions and rocket away from the wall . Like dark angels , they soar out over the water in formation . ON THE SHIP BELOW - The ship below is a scientific research vessel . On the deck , a few SAILORS and SCIENTISTS watch the sun set . The six dark figures close in rapidly . At the last moment they pull their chutes and deftly glide towards the ship . A sailor looks up and spots them . Before he can shout , he 's SHOT IN THE LEG and goes down . Seconds later , they 're on the deck , tearing off their rigs . They race across the deck , taking over the ship in a surgical manner . They herd everyone back heading for the bridge . Petra hangs back . She looks back at the cliff , up towards Xander . XANDER 'S P.O.V. Through his SUPER BINOCULARS we see them storming the bridge . As they head inside , they disappear from view . Xander hits a button on the side of the binoculars .
XANDER
Let's see what's going on inside.
`` PENETRATOR '' P.O.V. . Now he can see THROUGH THE WALLS OF THE SHIP . He sees THE CREW , herded into a room and LOCKED IN by Anarchy 99 .

EXT. SHIP - LATE AFTERNOON
ANGLE ON - a LARGE SUBMERSIBLE VEHICLE . It 's white and twelve feet long . There are MOTORS on either side and a PANEL OF SOLAR CELLS on the top of a periscope - like projection rising from the back . This is the AHAB DEVICE . It sits in the WET WELL at the back of the ship , ready to be launched out the back sea doors .
YORGI
Ready the boat.
There is a SMALLER BOAT moored to the back of the ship . Kirill and Viktor hop onto it 's deck . They start to WHISTLE as they work . Sounds like the `` Andy Griffith '' theme . XANDER 'S BINOCULARS P.O.V. . He takes DIGITAL PHOTOS of the Ahab device .
XANDER
What the hell are you guys stealing?
BACK ON THE SHIP The smaller boat is launched and ready to do . Yorgi goes to the WET WELL CONTROLS and hits a switch . The aft doors open , letting water into the wet well . In seconds Ahab starts to float . Anders loosens it from it 's moorings and they TIE AHAB TO THE BACK OF THE SMALLER BOAT .
KIRILL
Ready.
Yorgi hits another switch , opening the BALLAST DOORS on the port side of the ship . Air flows out , causing the ship to list to one side .
PETRA
What are you doing?
YORGI
It all happened so fast. Such an unfortunate accident.
Yorgi MACHINE GUNS the wet well control panel .
YORGI
Let's go.
They climb onto the boat . Petra is the last to board . She looks up towards Xander and MACHINE GUNS the panel some more , making sure he notices . XANDER 'S P.O.V. . He sees the smaller boat pulling away , the Ahab device being towed behind . He pans over and ZOOMS IN on the shot - up control panel .
XANDER
What the hell?
He pans over to the wet well and sees it 's flooding . With the ballast open on only one side , the ship starts LISTING . The thing is going down . He pans over , clicks into `` penetrator '' mode , and sees the Crew pounding on the walls below decks . They 're trapped , their WRISTS AND ANKLES BOUND WITH PLEXI - CUFFS .

EXT. TOP OF TROLL WALL - LATE AFTERNOON
Xander puts down the binoculars and gets up .
XANDER
No way, man, no way. I'm just supposed to be an observer. Aw shit. This job sucks.
He pats his jumpsuit , checking for the buckle .
XANDER
Toby Lee Shavers, if this thing do n't work, your ass is kicked.
Xander steels himself , takes a few deep breaths . Then he sprints to the edge and JUMPS off the cliff . And that 's it . He 's gone . One mile , straight down . Suddenly we 're falling with him . We hear the rush of air as he free - falls a dozen feet from the craggy rock face . The force of the wind ripples his cheeks . He streamlines himself into a track position and jets away from the cliff like Superman . Before he gets too low , he RIPS THE BUCKLE . Immediately his jumpsuit TEARS OFF HIS BODY in MULTIPLE LAYERS , unfurling into a full sized PARASAIL . Xander looks up at his parasail , relieved , and glides towards the ship .

I'd forgotten how exciting it is working together.
YORGI
You've been so quiet lately, Petra, I thought you no longer cared.
PETRA
Why do n't we go below decks and work off some of this adrenaline.
YORGI
( smiles . )
Viktor! Stay the course.
Yorgi kisses her again and heads to the cabin below .

The water is rising rapidly , filling up the compartment . Xander braces his feet against the bulkhead and PUSHES , but the force of the water is too much . He surfaces . He 's got to wait until the room floods before he can close that door . He watches as the Crew goes into a panic , the water rising up to the ceiling . They are gasping in the last foot of air that 's available . He sees the Captain 's Son , crying and clutching at his father . Xander takes a deep breath and dives down . He grabs the hatch door , braces his feet and PULLS . His muscles strain as the heavy metal door slowly swings SHUT . Xander surfaces and swims to the ladder . He CUTS the Captain 's plastic cuffs .

INT. CONFERENCE ROOM - THAT NIGHT
Xander is in a room with the SCIENTISTS from the ship . They have blueprints of the torpedo spread out . The Captain 's Son is wrapped in BLANKETS , shivering . Xander is talking to Gibbons on his communicator .
XANDER
( into communicator . )
They call it `` Ahab'', it's a solar powered submersible. It can circumnavigate the globe on it's own. They use it to track and study the migration patterns of whales.
INTERCUT WITH GIBBONS IN THE ULTIMATE INFORMATION ROOM Gibbons jots down the information furiously .
GIBBONS
You did say `` Ahab''? You're sure about that?
XANDER
Yeah, I sent you pictures. Here's what I'm thinking. If they take out the cameras and sensors, they could probably put a bomb in this thing. You drop it in the water in the Red Sea and three weeks later it's swimming up the Potomac.
GIBBONS
This is good work, X, damn fine work. You need to press on at all costs, find out what they have planned with this `` Ahab''.
XANDER
Hey, one miracle at a time. They're on to me now, remember?
GIBBONS
I'm gon na be en route with a team shortly to relieve you. Just keep the pressure on until the cavalry arrives. And X? You done yourself proud helping those people today.
Xander tussles the hair of the Captain 's Son .
XANDER
Thanks.
GIBBONS
You're a grungy little phoenix, you know that? Keep up the good work.
XANDER
You ai n't seen nothing yet.

This is a beautiful open air market in a town square surrounded by old buildings . The place is PACKED . In the midst of it all , we make out Petra moving through the crowd . She stops to look at some vegetables when Xander passes by her .
XANDER
Right behind you.
They keep talking , pretending to shop .
XANDER
So what's the plan with this Ahab? Are they selling it or what?
PETRA
No, something worse. He says it's a surprise, but I know him. This is his masterpiece.
XANDER
We've got to find out what it is. Can you handle that?
PETRA
( beat . )
There's something I did n't have time to tell you before.
XANDER
What's that?
PETRA
I'm a agent as well. KGB. I've been undercover for over a year.
XANDER
You're what? What the hell have you been doing?
PETRA
I do n't know. Eight months ago I stop hearing from my people. No explanation, just silence. So I stay and I wait like I was told. Soon I'm in so far, they'd kill me if I left. Now every day I get farther and farther away from what I was. I'm like you said, a criminal.
XANDER
I'm busted up for you, but Jesus, what the hell are you doing? Those people almost drowned on that boat and you did n't lift a finger.
This stings her . She knows well the price she paid .
PETRA
No, I guess I've been no help at all to you.
XANDER
Get your head back in the game. There are lives at stake here.
PETRA
Of course. I'll do what I can. I have to go, before they notice.
XANDER
When can I see you again?
PETRA
You ca n't, it's too risky. I'm not much help anyway, remember?
Then she 's off into the crowd .

Across the room , Xander sees a small window leading to the courtyard . He has to run across open ground to reach it . He calls out to Yorgi .
XANDER
Speaking of people that are full of shit, funny you should mention those guys!
Xander 's voice echoes around the empty hall , making it impossible to pinpoint .

INT. DIRTY APARTMENT - DAY
Xander comes up the stairs and sees LIGHTS ON in his apartment . He draws his gun and pushes the door open .
XANDER
Slovo?
Slovo is sitting in the armchair .
XANDER
Dude, what are you doing here?
SLOVO
You killed me, remember? Now I have to hide out here with you. Where have you been?
Xander holsters his gun , searches around for his communicator .
XANDER
I found something big enough for us to take these guys down with. They've got a of nerve agent they're gon na unleash.
SLOVO
Is this what you're looking for?
Xander turns to see Slovo waving the communicator .
XANDER
Yeah, give it here.
Slovo raises his pistol .
SLOVO
Sorry, `` dude''.
XANDER
( stunned beat . )
What's the deal?
SLOVO
Oh come on, do n't feel bad. You got played, so what? You're new at this. Did you think you could just stroll into this business one day and have all the angles figured out?
XANDER
Why you dogging me up?
SLOVO
( shrugs . )
They came and found me. They said they'd kill me unless I help them. Plus they offer me a lot of money. No big deal. These things happen. Dump your gun on the floor.
Xander does so .
SLOVO
Where do you want it? The head to be quick? Or the chest for an open casket?
Suddenly GUNFIRE blasts through the closed door . Bullets shatter a LAMP , a PICTURE , and finally tag Slovo in a wild salvo . Slovo crumples , never knowing what hit him . The door creaks open . It 's Petra , her gun still smoking . She 's with the Ivans .
PETRA
Are you alright?
XANDER
What the hell are you doing? You could've killed me!
PETRA
( shrugs . )
I heard you talking. I could tell where you were in the room.
XANDER
I do n't know what's going on anymore. I thought I was square with that dude. Now everybody's switching sides like it's the WWF.
The Ivans go to Slovo 's body , kicking the gun from his hands . One of them SPITS on his corpse in disgust .
XANDER
What are you doing with the Ivans?
PETRA
I know which cops are good and which are bad. Come with me. Come on, right now.
She drags him to the door .

EXT. ST. CHARLES BRIDGE - DAY
The beautiful and historic St. Charles bridge spans the river . There are BANNERS hanging in celebration of the coming PRAGUE PEACE CONFERENCE . Petra leads Xander across it .
XANDER
Where are we going?
PETRA
We're getting out of this place. We've done enough.
XANDER
Wait a minute, whoa. We ca n't go now. What's Yorgi got planned with that nerve agent?
PETRA
It does n't matter anymore, forget it.
XANDER
Of course it matters. Hey, hold on!
PETRA
What do we owe our governments? Yours kidnapped you, mine abandoned me.
XANDER
Petra, this ai n't about the people that sent us here, you know that.
PETRA
No, now it's about us. Let's do something for us before we both get killed. Do n't you want to get to Bora Bora, Xander?
XANDER
We ca n't leave now. We have to do something.
PETRA
Why? You're the one who believes in nothing. Screw the world, or whatever you said.
Xander grabs her by shoulders .
XANDER
Alright, so I was full of shit. I thought believing in things was wrong. Turns out believing in nothing is worse. You might as well be dead. I'm not thrilled with the world, but I'm not gon na let those idiots start killing people. Come on, you're a cop, we've got to get these guys.
He 's gotten through to her . She nods in agreement .
PETRA
They left. To a fortress in the mountains.
XANDER
We'll have to go after them.
PETRA
Are n't you afraid?
XANDER
A long time ago I learned how to put fear away in a little place in my head. Maybe that's my problem. If you do n't feel fear you can do some amazing things, but you can also screw your life up in ways you ca n't imagine.
PETRA
I must be healthy, then, because I'm scared to death. I guess I'd better get back to Yorgi.
XANDER
You do n't have to do that.
PETRA
Yes, I do. You're right. I ca n't just let him go free. Besides, I can help you from the inside.
XANDER
Are n't they gon na wonder were you've been?
PETRA
( shrugs . )
I was supposed to wait for the cop to kill you and then kill the cop. They'll believe me.
( beat . )
I've been lying for so long, one more time wo n't hurt.
XANDER
When this is over, we're just gon na take off, the two of us. Take a vacation.
PETRA
What the hell are we doing? We're doing all this together, trusting each other, making plans, and we have n't even slept together yet.
Xander kisses her .
XANDER
That gives us something to live for.
Together they walk back across the bridge . We crane up , revealing the PRAGUE PEACE CONFERENCE banners all over a big BUILDING on the river .

He pulls a COLLAPSIBLE SNOWBOARD off his back , hits a switch and the thing SWITCHBLADES OUT to full size . He clamps it on his feet . Xander moves to the edge and peers down . At the bottom of the mountain he can see the CASTLE , an imposing medieval fortress in the snow . He leans over the edge and starts down the mountain . He does n't get far before he notices something else . He slides to a stop on the near vertical face , clinging to rocks for balance . On the mountain below him , between him and the castle , is a GUARD OUTPOST . Right now he 's in full view and he 's been spotted . He sees GUARDS scrambling out , hopping on SNOWMOBILES . From up here they look like ants .

EXT. MOUNTAIN TOP - DAY
Xander pulls a CONCUSSION GRENADE from his jacket .
XANDER
Nothing like fresh powder.
He puts his goggles on and pulls the pin from the grenade . Then he TOSSES IT OVER HIS SHOULDER . The grenade lands in the snow above him and starts ROLLING DOWNHILL TOWARDS HIM . Xander pushes off and starts bombing down the mountain . The grenade bounces after him and then WHAM ! It goes up with a tremendous shock . There is a SHIFT in the snow , a GROAN of shifting weight , then the ENTIRE CORNICE cracks loose and topples over the brink . Xander streaks down the mountain with that wall of snow at his heels . From down below it 's an awesome sight . The slack - jawed Guards watch as tons of churning snow bear down on them . Shooting in and out of that powdery mass like a surfer , they can see Xander skipping like a stone down the mountain face . There 's a mad scramble as Guards turn their snowmobiles and ride for their lives . A furious Viktor spins around and makes a run for it as well . Nobody has a chance . The avalanche is coming like a freight train , frothing like white water . Xander blazes right through the scrambling Guards and hits a JUMP . He goes soaring up and lands square on the sloped roof of the Outpost . The avalanche is right behind him , slamming down everything and everyone in its way . Guards are swallowed up and tossed , snowmobiles go tumbling under the onslaught . Xander grabs onto the chimney as the avalanche washes over the Outpost . He holds on until the ocean of snow comes to a stop . Then it 's all quiet . Above him the slope is a battlefield of icy rubble . There 's nothing moving up there anymore . Xander pulls himself free . Then he hears a gushing sound and a DEEP BENEATH THE SURFACE , he sees the WARM ORANGE GLOW OF FLAME . It 's Viktor and his flame thrower . There 's another SPURT and the glow fades for good . Xander boards to a rock and sits to catch his breath . He 's right above the Castle now . Then his communicator starts to BEEP .
XANDER
( into communicator . )
Gibbons, long time no talk. You would n't believe my day.
INTERCUT WITH GIBBONS ON THE PRIVATE JET WITH A TEAM OF AGENTS .
GIBBONS
What the hell has been going on, Triple X? How about a status report?
Xander looks down on the Castle . There seem to be MAFIYA HENCHMEN all over the grounds .
XANDER
Snow covered fortress. Army of bad guys. The usual.
GIBBONS
I'm on the way with a team to relieve you. What's the latest?
XANDER
They retrofitted Ahab with some kind of rocket launcher. They were loading canisters of liquid into it, light colored and dark colored in the same tube but separate. Something tells me this it that `` classified'' stuff you did n't want me to know about. Does the song `` Silent Night'' mean anything to you?
GIBBONS
Yes it does.
XANDER
Come on, Gibbons, you can do better then that.
GIBBONS
Silent Night is the name of a top secret binary nerve agent. The glass canister is shot into the air and detonated. The black and white chemicals mix, forming a toxic cloud. When it settles down to Earth, it'll kill everything in the vicinity.
XANDER
Jesus Christ, Gibbons, this is something we came up with?
GIBBONS
Yeah, that's right. So now that you know, you understand why it's important that we get it back.
XANDER
Kinda funny, though, is n't it? We're not supposed to be making weapons like that anyway. Guess we shoulda played by the rules.
GIBBONS
Somebody else makes those decisions, not guys like you and me. You've done your job, X, head back to Prague. I'll be landing in 90 minutes. This is my operation now.
XANDER
We do n't have that kinda time, boss, I do n't think Prague's gon na be around much longer. I've got ta go now. I've got a lot of bad guys to kill.
Xander hangs up and heads down the hill .

EXT. CASTLE - DAY
A GUARD patrols the rocky grounds outside the castle . He stops for a smoke when Xander walks right up to him . WHACK ! With two quick blows he knocks him out and keeps walking . He 's a man on a mission . He runs in a low crouch to the smooth castle wall . There 's no hand - holds , it 's , a perfectly flat climb . A canyon of ROCKS is below . Xander reaches into his jacket and pulls out the `` TERMINATOR '' CLIMBING CLAWS . He pulls on the metal gloves and CLAWS into the solid rock . Just like that he starts scaling the vertical surface . We see him outlined against the mountains , steadily making this impossible climb . At the top is an overhang . It 's a gnarly transition . As he 's rounding it , his FEET SLIP . His legs dangle over the rocky chasm below . Using all his strength , he pulls himself up the rest of the way with his climbing claws . At the top a GUARD leans over , aiming his gun at him . Xander grabs him and pulls him over the edge . The Guard FALLS into the chasm . Xander rolls onto the parapet , exhausted . Then another GUARD rushes him , grabbing for his rifle . Xander springs , the claws lashing out , and tears the gun from his hands . With the other hand he SLASHES , taking the Guard down . He pulls off the claws and heads into the Guard Tower .

INT. CASTLE - MAIN BUILDING - DAY
Petra sits at a desk working on a LAPTOP . Yorgi enters with Xander and Kirill .
YORGI
Look who we found playing outside.
Petra looks up . She can barely hide her shock .
YORGI
Petra, my sweet dove, do you notice anything strange about X? He looks slightly less than dead.
Kirill aims his gun at Petra .
PETRA
Yorgi, I thought he was -
Yorgi SLAPS her .
YORGI
Do you think I did n't know about you all along? My contacts in the KGB told me you were coming. You show up undercover and, I must admit, you play your part to the hilt. When it's time to be cruel, you are cruel. When it's time to be passionate, you are very very passionate indeed.
Petra is devastated by this revelation .
YORGI
I could have killed you, but I thought this would be so much more fun. To twist you and use you how I see fit. And to be honest, you went much farther than I ever expected you would for your country.
He runs this fingers through her hair and moves on to Xander .
YORGI
And you. Why do you have such a problem staying away, my friend? Did you miss us that much?
XANDER
I wanted to get the hell out of Prague before Silent Night falls.
YORGI
Not bad, man, not bad. You put things together quick. Prague it is.
PETRA
The Peace conference.
YORGI
Nice place to start, do n't you think?
XANDER
What's the gimmick, Yorgi? That's the part I do n't get. You gon na hold the world hostage with your gas bombs? I did n't think you were dumb enough to go with that hack cliche.
YORGI
You think I'm after money? I told you, my friend. Anarchy. Time for a change. Money is good, but for true freedom you have to get rid of the rules themselves.
XANDER
So all by yourself, you're going to destroy every government ; in the world.
YORGI
Easier than that, buddy. I'll get them to destroy each other. You kill an entire Peace conference, someone is going to have to pay. Then our friend Ahab continues down the river to the ocean and begins his world tour. London, Cairo, Beijing. Pretty soon everyone's involved. These guys bomb those guys, those guys invade these guys. Soon the whole world is like your wild West cowboy days. No rules, no law, everybody free to do what they want.
XANDER
Including rape, pillage, murder.
YORGI
Sure, if that's what you want. Why not? It's all human nature. So we just have to launch our baby and wait for the decline and fall of civilization as we know it.
XANDER
And here I thought `` anarchy'' was just something cool to put on a Tshirt.
YORGI
Come on, Xander. You used to stand for something. What happened to you, man? I thought you'd get it.
PETRA
Do n't you see, X? For the betterment of humanity, he's going to start World War Three.
XANDER
He's a regular humanitarian. And all this time I thought he was just a tool.
YORGI
You both could have been a part of it. You could have ridden with us into a new day, the dawning of a new age of -
XANDER
Oh just shoot us already. I'm sorry I asked.
Yorgi 's eye twitches .
YORGI
Screw you too, buddy.
He raises his gun and suddenly BOOOOOM ! A massive explosion rocks the whole castle . Shrapnel shatters the windows , spraying glass , and Yorgi 's shot goes wide .

Xander floors it . Up ahead , in the flatbed truck , Yorgi drives . He can see the GTO gaining on them .
YORGI
( in Russian , subtitled . )
They're coming! Get back there.

You get down! I'll take care of this fool!

PETRA
No! Do n't shoot! He's hiding behind the nerve agent!

The Anarchy 99 guys seem to have a whole other army in here . Guards spill onto the road , shooting at them from everywhere . A BELLY PANEL on the GTO opens and ping - pong ball sized MINIBOMBS dump onto the road . BLAM ! BLAM ! BLAM ! The bombs send the Guards scattering . The GTO sizzles away .
XANDER
Where'd the damn truck go?!
PETRA
Go to the water, it's that way!
A tactical -LRB- a pick - up with a .50 cal machine gun attached -RRB- pulls up behind them and opens fire .
XANDER
Toadies right behind.
PETRA
Let me.
Petra punches another button . The REAR HUBCAPS pop off . They roll along the road on their own . Inside they seem to be LINED WITH SPIKES . As the Tactical pulls up in between the hubcaps they BLOW UP , SPRAYING SPIKES at both sides of the Tactical . All four wheels BLOW OUT and the Tactical goes out of control . It crashes through a fence and pitches into the water , the men going sprawling .
PETRA
Fantastic options.
At the riverbank Yorgi and Kirill pull Ahab off the truck and prepare for launching . They remove it from it 's box and carry it waist deep into the water . Yorgi opens a panel and works feverishly on Ahab 's insides .
YORGI
I've got it, go! Cover me!
Kirill grabs his sniper rifle and heads off . He climbs up to a second story window of a wooden building on a WHARF . From here he can shoot and NOT BE SEEN . He takes his LIT CIGARETTE and tucks it behind his ear . When the GTO rounds the corner he FIRES . The bullet goes through the window and SLAMS into the steering column . Xander jams it into reverse . They retreat behind a building . Petra clutches her arm , wounded .
XANDER
You okay?
PETRA
A piece of shrapnel hit me.
XANDER
I'm sick of that guy. Let's stop playing nice.
Kirill chambers another bullet and waits for them to make their second approach . The GTO comes roaring out , spinning in circles wildly . Xander 's is just doing donuts as fast as he can . Kirill aims , but with all the dust being kicked up he does n't have much of a target .
KIRILL
What are you doing!
He does n't notice Petra pop up from behind a fence with a HEAT SEEKING MISSILE LAUNCHER . ANGLE ON - the missile launcher 's COMPUTER SCREEN . The green display shows a faint red glow in the upstairs window . Its the GLOWING POINT of Kirill 's lit cigarette . The Launcher BEEPS as it locks in and she FIRES . Kirill looks up to see the missile blazing down the wharf at him . He gets it immediately . In a panic he fumbles for the cigarette . Too late . The missile zeroes in on his head . WHOOOSH ! The entire wooden shack blows apart . Xander walks up to Petra .
XANDER
I guess the surgeon general was right.
ANGLE ON - Ahab as Yorgi flips a switch and let 's it go . The electric motor purrs to life and Ahab zips out into the river . Xander and Petra run to the water 's edge in time to see Yorgi escaping in a MOTORBOAT . In the opposite direction they see the ripples of Ahab as it speeds towards it 's destination . Petra finds the CONTROLLER in the cab of the truck . She presses buttons desperately .
PETRA
He's shut out the communication circuit!
XANDER
You ca n't talk to it?
PETRA
No, it's like a safety. We are going to have to access the manual controls.
XANDER
A manual control on a moving torpedo. This day keeps getting better and better.
Xander starts running towards a second moored MOTORBOAT .
XANDER
Radio Ivan! Tell him what's going down! Have them evacuate downtown!

EXT. THE RIVER - DAY
Yorgi is motoring away , smiling , when he glances back and sees Xander and Petra take off after Ahab . He pounds on his steering wheel and turns around . His bigger boat closes on them and he reloads his weapons . Xander drives while Petra checks her controller .
PETRA
It's running three meters down. Twenty knots.
XANDER
It has to surface to release the nerve agent, right?
PETRA
By then it's too late! The only way to safely dispose of the nerve agent is in deep water! The chemicals will break down and dissipate!
XANDER
Use your grenades! Maybe we can blow it up underwater!
They 're heading into downtown Prague now , the riverbank getting more and more populated . Yorgi is closing fast . Down below them Petra can see the white streak of Ahab beneath the water .
PETRA
There it is! Hold it steady!
Petra pulls the pin on a grenade . She tosses it out in front of Ahab . WHOOMPH ! A jet of water goes up , but too far behind . She pulls another pin and is ready to throw when Yorgi 's boat pulls up alongside . Yorgi aims and FIRES and the bullet GRAZES Petra 's arm .
XANDER
Petra!
She loses her grip and the grenade bounces down into the engine compartment . Xander grabs Petra and jumps . Together they land in Yorgi 's boat . The grenade explodes and their boat slams into a bridge support and shatters . They are in the heart of the old city now . We see piazza 's full of tourists , markets packed with locals , children playing in front of cathedrals . And on the river Yorgi and Xander battle it out while Petra steers the boat .
PETRA
Xander! It's coming up!
Xander glances down , sees Ahab nearing the surface . Yorgi clobbers him and Xander falls to the edge of the boat . Petra tries to help , but Yorgi slugs her in her wounded arm . Xander can see Ahab just a few inches under as Yorgi grabs him from behind in a chokehold .
YORGI
This is going to be exciting, buddy! Front row seats to the apocalypse! Come on, sing with me!
( singing madly . )
`` I am an Antichrist / I am an anarchist / I. wan - na be. Anarchy!''
Xander elbow 's Yorgi 's gut and breaks the chokehold . He flips him and they both topple overboard . They land on Ahab and both grab on . They punch and pummel each other while desperately hanging on to the speeding torpedo . It surfaces as it approaches the magnificent St. Charles bridge . On the bridge is a chaos of COPS , FIREMEN and CROWDS OF PEOPLE . They are desperately trying to herd people away from the river . Xander pounds Yorgi 's face and dunks him underwater . Yorgi slips and falls back to the tail section , dragging along in the torpedo 's wake . Ahab starts making noise and it 's payload doors swing open . Inside Xander can see the row of glass cannister containing Silent Night . The first one rises up into FIRING POSITION .
XANDER
No you do n't.
He pries the first rocket off it 's launcher . The thing is BEEPING menacingly . IN SLO - MOTION - Xander blinks at the liquid death in his hands . He looks over at Petra . She 's shouting at him , but he does n't hear a thing but his own HEARTBEAT . He looks the other direction , to the mass of PEOPLE on the bridge above him . Total strangers . The fate of the whole world is in the hands of a former nihilist . Through the crowd , Xander sees Gibbons break through with his squad of Agents . Gibbons and Xander make eye contact . Then Yorgi lunges onto his back , trying to pull him into the water . Xander HITS BUTTONS on the control panel and Ahab starts to DIVE .

With Yorgi hanging on his back , Xander turns the rocket upside down and stuffs it BACK IN THE LAUNCHER . Ahab heads down to the bottom of the river , the two men fighting . We see one man get THROWN FREE , the other is caught up on Ahab and continues downstream . Then the booster rocket FIRES , giving off SPARKS and BUBBLES . It 's all in silhouette now as WHAM ! The rocket EXPLODES , setting off a CHAIN REACTION . WHAM ! WHAM ! WHAM ! Ahab and it 's unfortunate passenger are DISINTEGRATED by the BLASTS . The chemicals BELCH OUT in harmless clouds .

Ivan 2 helps Petra off the motorboat . They look down at the water , but there 's no sign of Xander . Gibbons and his men push through the cordon of POLICE , scanning the water . Nothing . Tears well in Petra 's eyes . Even Gibbons looks dejected . Then Petra let 's out a gasp and they look downstream . There 's a boat ramp leading into the water . At first they see a ripple , then the top of a SHAVED HEAD emerges . The whole crowd looks on as Xander rises from the water , walking up the boat ramp . His shirt is tattered , his tattooed body battered . But there 's a look on his face , a calm , a self - confidence we have n't seen before . The Phoenix has risen . Petra runs down to him and throws her arms around him . Xander shakes Ivan 2 's hand and then turns to Gibbons .
GIBBONS
Thought you bought the farm down there, X. Glad as hell to see you.
XANDER
I'm pretty happy to see me too. So are you done with me yet?
GIBBONS
You've kept up your end of the bargain, I'll do the same. But you really should consider staying on, you make a decent agent.
XANDER
But I hate cops, remember? Except for her.
GIBBONS
Cut the crap, X, I saw you down there. You're a hero. Do n't be afraid to join the good guys.
XANDER
Who says you're the good guys?
He starts walking off with Petra .
GIBBONS
You know what they say, the only way to change the system is from the inside.
XANDER
Oh yeah? Why do n't we start by taking this thing off my ankle? The poison needles?
GIBBONS
On come on, X. Did you really think we were that barbaric?
XANDER
No needles, huh? What about the acid bath?
GIBBONS
All for show. Just a psychological mind game to get you to do the right thing.
XANDER
( smiles . )
You're a jerk - off, you know that?
Gibbons waves .
GIBBONS
We'll be talking soon, you'll see. You'll be back.
Xander and Petra move off through the crowd arm in arm .
PETRA
I ca n't believe my mission is finally over. I do n't even know what to do with myself.
XANDER
You ca n't welch on me now. We had a deal.
ANGLE ON - a big `` X '' spelled out in SEASHELLS on the sand . The camera shoots up into the sky , showing a perfect white beach , a perfect lagoon , a lush green island . BORA BORA . Then we hear the BUZZING of a TATTOO NEEDLE . A THIRD `` X '' BEING TATTOOED ON THE BACK OF XANDER 'S HEAD .

EXT. BORA BORA - DAY
Craggy mountain peaks and perfect turquoise blue water . Xander steps out of a hut built over the water . We see Petra sprawled out on the deck in a bikini . She 's got a bucket of HINANO BEER chilling down . It 's a vision of heaven . He lays down next to her , starts pulling her bikini bottom off .
PETRA
( laughing . )
What are you doing?
XANDER
It's about your next mission. You need to be debriefed.
FROM UNDERWATER - we see the two of them dive into the lagoon nude . There 's too many bubbles to see any real skin , but we know what they 're up to . Back on the surface we see BUBBLES rising and catch glimpses of their outlines beneath the water . The Camera pulls back to the deck , where we see Xander 's COMMUNICATOR on the table next to the beers . We hear them surface and start SPLASHING off camera . Then the damn communicator starts to BEEP . FADE OUT . THE END
