Phillip Graves and several members of Shadow Company operate inside their AC-130 Spectre Gunship callsign Shadow-1. Graves walks along the fuselage, giving orders to his men. Three crew members stand by a 105mm cannon and load a round inside the tube. A fourth gunner loads another round into the rack.

Graves :Loaders, get your rounds in the can.

Shadow-1 Gunner :Yes, Commander.

Graves :Nav, set a heading for that compound.

Shadow-1 Nav :Roger.

Graves :Fire officer, keep a hand on the hot switch, we're just gettin' started here.

Shadow-1 FCO :Solid copy!

Graves :Pilot, you have the con. Once on station, circle the target, bring us around.

Shadow-1 Pilot :Sir.

Graves :Comm, get me General Shepherd.

Shadow-1 Comms Ofc :Rog, stand by. (pause) Shepherd's up, sir.

Graves (on comms) :Gold Eagle Actual, this is Shadow-1, how copy?

Shepherd (in comms) :Loud and clear, Shadow-1, send traffic.

Graves (on comms) :I had to bail your boys out, luckily they have friends in high places.

Shepherd (in comms) :That's what you're there for. Tell me something' good.

Graves (on comms) :We got a hit on Hassan. Approaching the target location now. We'll get this bastard rolled up for a little talkin' too.

Shepherd (in comms) :That's what I like to hear. Report back when Hassan's in the bag.

Graves (on comms) :Roger that. Out here. All shadows, listen up-

The Shadow-1 crew turns to face Graves.

Graves :These guys on the ground... Mexican Special Forces, 141, they are your brothers now. You treat 'em like your own and let's get this done, yeah?

Shadow Group :YUP-YUP!

Graves watches the monitor being manned by the TV operator.

Graves :Alright! (using radio) GHOST, this is Shadow-1, orbiting the compound now. Standing by for visual...

The scene cuts to the outskirts of the compound as SOAP, GHOST, and Alejandro approach the target location in their vehicle.

GHOST (using radio) :Shadow-1, Bravo 0-7. We'll mark our position with IR laser. Over.

Graves (in radio) :Roger that, 0-7.

The trio park their vehicle and dismount.

SOAP :How do we find Hassan?
