as you were lieutenant. we've been through a lot together shane. you're the best man i ever trained. and a good friend. why the hell did you let him use the satellite phone? plummer was the best security expert the department of defense ever had -- a genius. he was working on a program that scrambles launch codes. he called it g.h.o.s.t.: guided high-altitude scrambling transmitter. one pulse from the ghost satellite and a country can't launch its own nukes. that's what the serbians kidnapped him for, but they couldn't get s inside the briefcase. not a surprise, really. not like the professor to hide things where someone might look for them. g.h.o.s.t. is still out there, which is why i'm going to give you another shot. negative. it's not that kind of mission. two days ago, i got a call from the professor's wife. widow. she told me someone had broken into her home. searched the place, top to bottom. she's scared. the family's scared. whoever killed the professor must think g.h.o.s.t. is in that house. maybe it is, maybe it isn't. either way, i need someone to stay at that house, and protect them. and while you're there -- find out if the program is in there. the professor's wife requested you. you gotta problem with this mission? as we discussed, this is an urgent matter. sorry. not in switzerland, i can't. this is absurd. if we can't get some faster service, we're going to have to file a complaint. do you have it? what's wrong? good job, lieutenant. i should hope not. i'm sorry, mr. chun. there were delays. he won't be baby-sitting you anymore. you bring your stethoscope? relax -- i've got the keys, they're not going anywhere. how does it work? don't play dumb. it's getting old. i want to know how to get through the booby traps. what's the code? if i knew charles had hidden it so well, i wouldn't have killed him so soon. don't make me kill you too. change of plan. bring them back unharmed. code or no code, go get it -- now. thank you, shane. you were always my best man. i knew you'd figure it out. you know, if you're willing to join up, i'd be happy to cut you in on the proceeds. what do you say -- we make a good team? i'll take that as a "no." i think you better open it. wait. that's just what you want isn't it? you open it. oh come on. i walked the floor first. none requested. any last words?
