Under orders from intelligence officer Amanda Waller, thirteen inmates from Belle Reve penitentiary—former psychiatrist Harley Quinn; man-eating hybrid Nanaue; Australian thief Captain Boomerang; hitman Bloodsport; violent extremist Peacemaker; metahumans T.D.K. and Polka-Dot Man; computer hacker Savant; mercenary Blackguard; former Olympic athlete Javelin; alien warrior Mongal; rat-controlling robber Ratcatcher 2; and cannibalistic humanoid Weasel—are “recruited” as Task Force X to destroy Jötunheim, a Nazi-era prison and laboratory in the South American island nation of Corto Maltese that holds political prisoners and a site for secretive experiments. The team have explosive devices in their skulls, which can be detonated at any moment if they fail to follow Waller’s orders…

[sighs]
[door opens]
I got another 15.
Not today, you don’t. You’re up.
You know the deal. Successfully complete the mission, you get ten years off your sentence. You fail to follow my orders in any way and I detonate the explosive device in the base of your skull.
Good dog.
[Waller] We are a black ops unit. Meaning, nothing you see here ever happened.
[man] Savant.
[Waller] Your commanding officer will be Colonel Rick Flag.
Or would you rather be called Durlin?
I’d rather not be called at all. But I’ll do anything to get out of this hellhole.
[Flag] Well, welcome to “anything.”
[instrumental rock music playing]
So this is the famous Suicide Squad.
[Flag] Well, we consider that term degrading. The official term is “Task Force X.” And love ’em or hate ’em, these are your brothers and sisters for the next few days.
[hums teasingly] Oh!
Whoa.
[screeching]
[instrumental rock music continues playing]
[Flag] Captain Boomerang.
Blackguard.
Mongal.
Javelin.
T.D.K.
Weasel.
And, of course…
Hey, guys, sorry I’m late. Had to go number two.
Hmm, good to know.
Flag. Oh, sorry. Comin’ through. Hey, Boomer.
What are you doing back in prison, Harls?
I got road rage. In a bank.
[grunts]
Oh. So sorry. Comin’ through.
Turn it around. There. No.
There? Here?
Put it in there. Now you’re safe.
All right. Thanks, man.
[Briscoe] Prepare for liftoff. And away we go.
[Emilia] Harley and T.D.K…
[Flo] Digger.
[Emilia] …have they worked together before?
[John] Not yet. I’m excited.
[Flo] What does Savant do again?
[Emilia] It’s Brian Durlin. He’s an expert in weapons and hand-to-hand combat.
Yeah, well, I’m putting 20 on him that he’s gonna bite it.
Me too. And Weasel, Boomer and Mongal.
[John] Yeah, I think…
[Flo] Is Mongal an alien or some type of god?
What are you doing?
Oh. Hey.
Just making sure everything was ready to go.
[John] Good meeting, everybody. Just our normal, casual morning meeting.
Yeah, I just gotta, uh, do this thing.
[John] Nothing weird about it.
[Flo] Okay.
[John] Oh, yeah.
[phone rings]
Flag.
[Flag] Yeah, we’re T-minus five from the drop.
[Waller] Get the whole team safely to that beach, Colonel. You will receive further orders once there.
[smacking lips]
[sighs]
[Boomerang laughs]
We’re in a butcher’s freezer, Harls, surrounded by dead hogs hangin’ on hooks. Only they don’t know it yet.
Leave him alone, Boomer.
What does T.D.K. stand for?
What?
Your name is T.D.K., correct?
Yeah.
And it stands for what?
It stands for me.
It’s what a name is.
Your name is letters?
All names are letters, dickhead.
I love your accent.
American women all love accents.
We do. ‘Cause we don’t got none.
[retching]
Yo, is this a dog?
What?
Is this thing a dog?
A… A dog?
Yes.
What kind of dog do you think it is, mate?
I don’t know, I’m not familiar with all the breeds.
I’m gonna go with Afghan Hound.
Since when does an Afghan Hound have bloody thumbs?
Oh, my God, is it a werewolf? I’ve wanted to meet a werewolf forever.
Yo, they sat me next to a werewolf?
[T.D.K.] That’s not right.
Yo, let me out. I do not fuck with werewolves.
Hey, hey, he’s not a werewolf, okay! He’s a weasel. He’s harmless. I mean, he’s not harmless, he’s killed 27 children, but, you know, we got him to… I think he’s agreed to do this. Whatever the case, just everyone get into position to drop.
[Weasel chitters]
[dramatic instrumental rock music playing]
[instrumental rock music continues]
[Weasel screaming]
[yelping]
Did anyone check on whether Weasel could swim?
[Weasel continues yelping]
[gurgling and coughing]
[Savant grunting]
[John sighs]
[continues grunting]
The Weasel is dead! I repeat, the Weasel is dead.
[sighs]
Northeast, all clear. Approach the shore. Over.
Savant, hold your position.
Roger that.
[menacing music playing]
Amateurs.
Waller, we’re on the beach and dry.
[Harley laughs]
Blackguard. Get down, you…
Hey, guys! Hey.
…there’s fucking soldiers everywhere!
You can come out now, it’s just me.
What the fuck is Blackguard doin’?
I’m the one who contacted you.
Is this what’s supposed to happen? What the fuck?
Blackguard, get back into your position.
Look, look. I brought everybody, look. They’re right behind me. Whoa. Hey. Hey, guys. Whoa. We got a deal, right? Uh… Uh…
Waller, we’re made.
I’m the one who called you.
[officers shouting indistinctly]
Blackguard sold us out. He contacted the fucking Corto Maltese Army! Waller, we need to retreat.
Negative, Flag. The mission is too important. This is a tough group. You can make it.
Okey-doke.
Waller, with all due respect, we’re in the middle of a goddamn… Harley, wait!
Whoo-hoo!
[soldiers screaming]
[instrumental rock music playing]
[panting]
[all grunt]
[grunts]
Zero-two-two-seven is wide open.
Colonel, dispatch The Detachable Kid.
T.D.K., two o’clock!
T.D.K. is “The Detachable Kid”?
[grunting]
[Savant groans]
[soldiers groaning]
What the fuck?
I didn’t pick the damn team!
Don’t worry, Flag, I got the bird.
Mongal! Don’t.

Savant, turn back.
[instrumental rock music playing]
Savant.
[continues yelling]
[weapons firing]
Savant, I’m warning you, this is desertion.
[Savant yelling fearfully]
Savant! This is your last chance. Turn back around. You are in violation of your agreement!
[Savant] Oh, please! No.
[beeping]
[Savant continues yelling]
[sighs]
Damn it.
[weapon whirring]
[weapon fires]
[explosions]
[distant gunfire]
How’s Team Two holding up?
[Flo] Team Two, check. Set point bravo. All troops on the south beach are engaged. Team Two is clear to go on the north beach.
Congratulations, Bloodsport.
[breathing heavily]
[sighs]
[Bloodsport] How’d you do it, Waller? There’s no soldiers out here on patrol at all.

[Blackguard] Oh, jeez.
Oh.
Here you go, champ.
Excuse me.
Who the fuck is Bloodsport?
Robert DuBois. A world-class marksman. In his hands, anything is a deadly weapon. His father was a mercenary who trained his son to kill from the moment he was born. He’s in prison for putting Superman in the ICU with a kryptonite bullet. … DuBois?
Same answer as the last time. Piss off. I’m not joining your goddamn Suicide Squad.
We’ll see. You have a visitor.
[door buzzes, opens]
They said you got in trouble.
I stole.
You stole what?
A style watch.
A star latch?
A style watch. You can watch TV on it.
Why would you want to watch TV on your watch?
I don’t know.
Next time you want to nick something, you take a partner, and they can be your lookout.
That’s your advice?
Yeah.
You’re a terrible father.
Hey, I didn’t ask to be a father in the first place.
You make that perfectly clear.
Your mother sprung that one on me.
Well, she’s not around anymore, so you can lay off of her, okay?
Oh, I tried to lay off her, but then she dragged out the paternity test.
Fuck you!
No, fuck you!
Fuck you!
Fuck you!
Fuck you!
Fuck you!
Fuck you!
Fuck you!
Fuck you! I can’t believe you don’t care that I stole, only that I got caught!
I don’t only care that you got caught, I care that you got caught for stealing something as stupid as a fucking TV watch!
It does other things too!
But nothing that your phone can’t fucking do! It’s embarrassing!
No, what’s fucking embarrassing is having you as my father.
[smacks lips]
Yeah, well, I told you, Tyla, when I came here that any goodness I ever had in me had been wrung out bare by my old man. And I also told you to go out there and do your own thing and stay far away from me or anyone like me, didn’t I? So, why are you here when you and I both know I have nothing good to offer you?
Because my court date is coming up, and Miss Waller said maybe you could help me out.
To get me to lead your shite fucking mission, you’re gonna send my 14-year-old daughter to prison?
No. Your daughter is 16, DuBois. You’re a real father of the year.
Fine. You know what, Tyla needs to grow up anyway ’cause she’s a little ditzy like her fucking mother. So, a year in juvie, no fucking problem.
Not juvie. Being 16 in the state of Louisiana means that under the right circumstances, she could be tried as an adult. And, if convicted, could be sent right here to old Belle Reve. And in here, well, you never know what might happen to a frail young thing like that. Shames me to say that we have the highest mortality rate in the entire U.S. prison system.
[guard] Whoa, hey, hey, hey!
You’re threatening my fucking daughter!
I’m protecting this country. Everyone stand down.
Miss Waller, I…
Stand down!
[Bloodsport breathing heavily]
I wouldn’t take such extreme measures…
Oh, extreme? Oh, yeah, a little extreme.
…if this mission weren’t more important than you could possibly imagine.
Fuck your mission.
You have the military experience necessary, and everything in your psychological profile tells me you have what it takes to be a leader.
No, I’m no fucking leader!
Then I’ll make you one.
[dramatic music playing]
Are you in or out? … Good. Let’s meet your team.
Come on.
Fuck me, man.
[guard] Let’s go.
She was gonna kill his kid?
[Waller] Each member of the team is chosen for his or her own completely unique set of abilities. This is Christopher Smith, known as Peacemaker. In his hands, anything is a deadly weapon. His father was a soldier who trained his son how to kill from the moment he was born.
Are you having a laugh?
What?
You just said each member of the team is chosen for their unique abilities. He does exactly what I do.
But better.
I always hit my targets dead center.
I hit them more in the center.
Well, you can’t hit something more in a center.
I use smaller bullets.
What?
They go inside your bullet holes without even touching the side.
Next up is King Shark.
[Peacemaker] Holy shit.
What the fuck?
[Waller] Some people claim that Nanaue is a descendant of an ancient shark god. Whatever the case, he’s strong and deadly.
Does it talk?
[King Shark] Book read.
[Bloodsport] Wow. [chuckles]
[Peacemaker] Book’s upside-down.
See that? It’s pretending to read a book.
So smart, me. Enjoy book so much.
Be a mite careful, as he’s developed a taste for human meat.
Huh?
Next, we have Cleo Cazo, Ratcatcher 2.
[inmate whistles]
[inmates cheering]
Settle down!
Ooh.
What, we couldn’t afford Ratcatcher 1?
He’s dead. This is his daughter.
[knocks]
Cazo, will you be joining us?
[groans] I just woke up. I don’t function well early in the morning.
My deepest apologies for disturbing you.
Hmm, it’s all right.
Get your ass out here!
[gasps]
[sighs, moaning]
Millennials.
[continues moaning]
Oh, no way. That’s not coming with us.
She controls rats.
I know, I caught that. It’s a disgusting superpower.
This is Sebastian. Say hello, Sebastian.
I’m not shakin’ the rat’s hand.
[Sebastian whines]
And finally, we have Abner Krill.
What’s that ’round his neck?
A power dampener. They call him the Polka Dot Man.
[scoffs] Polka Dot Man.
What’s he do, throw polka dots at people?
He does. He throws polka dots at people.
Hey, Polka Dot Man, I was hoping you’d entertain my kid’s birthday party. You fucking pussy! [laughing hysterically]
[chuckles]
These are soldiers?
We need to debrief.
[glass squeaking]
[groans] Fuck.
Corto Maltese is a small island nation off the coast of South America. Over the past 100 years, the country has been ruled with an iron fist by the Herrera family. But, a week ago, this guy, General Silvio Luna, along with his right-hand man, Mayor General Mateo Suarez, took control of the Corto Maltese government in a violent military coup. The entire Herrera family were hanged in a public execution. Although the United States did not condone the excesses of the Herrera regime, they were non-antagonistic toward the U.S. Luna, however, is virulently anti-American.
So, you want us to kill Luna?
No.
This is Jotunheim. A scientific experimentation facility containing something known only as Project Starfish. Our intelligence sources tell us that Starfish is extraterrestrial in origin. In the hands of the Luna regime, it is potentially cataclysmic for Americans and the world. Your mission is to infiltrate Jotunheim and destroy every trace of Project Starfish.
How are we supposed to get in?
Gaius Grieves, the Thinker, is a geneticist in charge of Project Starfish. After hours, he hangs out at a gentlemen’s club known as La Gatita Amable. Get Grieves to help you by whatever means necessary and he can get you into Jotunheim. Any questions?
What is that?
[Waller] That is an overhead projector.
Do you ever use it anymore?
No, not really.
So, why don’t you just throw it away?
[Waller] Peacemaker?
Starfish is a slang term for a butthole. Think there’s any connection?
No.
No…
Nanaue.
[Peacemaker] …connection.
Hand.
Yes, that is your hand, Nanaue, very good.
We’re all gonna die.
I hope so.
Oh, for fuck’s sake.
[dramatic music playing]
[explosion]
Control, we have a disturbance south of here.
[Waller on radio] It’s just a diversion, Bloodsport.
All right, we cut through the jungle to get to Valle Del Mar.
Don’t they have blockades at the city limits?
That’s the word.
How we getting in? Especially with Charlie the Tuna here.
How the hell am I supposed to know?
You’re the leader. You’re supposed to be decisive.
And I’ve decided that you should eat a big bag of dicks, how’s that?
You’re being facetious, but if this whole beach was completely covered in dicks and somebody said I had to eat every dick until the beach was clean for liberty, I would say no problemo.
Why would someone put penises all over the beach?
Who knows why madmen do what they do?
Well, you know what I think? I think liberty is just your excuse to do whatever you want. Whether that’s to eat a beach full of dicks or killin’ folk.
Oh, yeah? At least I don’t kill men for money like you.
Oh, here we go.
There’s something wrong with your skin.
It’s just a rash.
That’s a rash?
[explosions]
[screams]
[grunts]
[gunfire]
[soldier shouts indistinctly]
[whispers] Oh, no.
[whispering] You… are the only one… fit to carry my javelin. Carry it for…
[exhaling slowly]
[soft music playing]
Carry it for who? For what? What the heck? Who am I supposed to carry it for?
[soldier shouts in Spanish] Stop where you are or DIE!
[Harley, in English] This is so frustratin’. He just told me I have to carry this javelin for a reason, but he didn’t say why!
Waller? Waller. Waller!
[weapons cocking]
All right, we’ll camp here, and tomorrow we’ll go straight through to the city to get to La Gatita Amable by nightfall.

How deep of a sleeper are you?
I was having the most wonderful dream.
If it was you about to be eaten by King Shark, then you’re psychic.
[Ratcatcher 2] I don’t believe he would do that. He has very kind eyes.
[squeaking]
[grunts] Hungry.
You bastard!
[rats squeaking]
[Peacemaker] Uh…
[King Shark grunting in fear]
All right, calm down with the rats!
What?
I have a thing with rats.
You have a thing with rats?
Yes.
And you’re on a team with me?
Not something I asked for!
[laughs]
What are you laughing at me for, man? Why the fuck are you in your underwear? Tighty-whities? Really?
Now, that’s just racist.
[Bloodsport] No. It’s not racist. They’re tighty-whities.
[Emilia] Oh, come the fuck on. Bloodsport’s got a rat phobia.
What?
[laughs]
You didn’t tell me you had a fear of rats, DuBois?
I’m an assassin! Why would I share my liabilities?
[shrieks]
[whispers] For fuck’s sake.
Aw. He’s offering you a pretty leaf to show you he means no harm.
Why the fuck would I want a leaf?
[laughs]
Just get the rats out of here!
Oh, fuck’s sake.
Huh. Cool.
[King Shark pants]
Hey, we gonna kill Megalodouche now, or what?
[Waller] Nanaue’s the strongest member of your team. You need him to get into Jotunheim.
Yeah, well, we can’t function as a team if we gotta watch our back from one of our own eatin’ our bollocks.
Nanaue, would you eat your friends?
I no friends.
You have no friends? … If you did, would you eat them?
Yes.
[sighs]
No?
Then, can we be your friends?
[scoffs] Come on.
He’s obviously lying.
If I die ’cause I gambled on love, it will be a worthy death.
Friends.
[chuckles]
You are a little idiot.
[footsteps departing]
[alarm beeps]
[coughs] Oh, my God! Oh, my God. I’m good at my job. [chuckles] I found him. Check it out. Look, right here, a mile north.
Task Force X, you have an additional mission directive. We’ve located Colonel Rick Flag. He’s been taken by the enemy.
Rick Flag?
I know, you both served on special forces in Qurac that took down Avral Kaddam. Flag was the one who initially recommended you.
[Bloodsport] You had other operatives in Corto Maltese and didn’t tell us?
There was no tactical advantage, now there is. I’ve uploaded the location on your MTS. Terminate his captors with extreme prejudice. Kill anyone you see. These are dangerous people. Recover Flag before moving on to the city.
[tense music playing]
[device beeping]
That’s where they’re holding Flag.
Nothing like a bloodbath to start the day.
They call you Peacemaker?
I cherish peace with all my heart. I don’t care how many men, women, and children I need to kill to get it.
[whispers] I thought you were the crazy one.
I am.
[Bloodsport] All right. Let’s get it.
Boss.
Gracias.

I’m sorry it’s so… flamboyant.
It looks cool. I think.
I don’t like to kill people, but if I pretend they’re my mom, it’s easy.
T.M.I., mate.
[laughter]
[gasps]
[Spanish song playing on speaker]
DuBois?
Hey, Flag.
What the hell are you doing here?
Waller told us that you were… Uh… Are you drinkin’ tea?
This is Sol Soria, she’s the leader of the freedom fighters, the resistance trying to take down the current government. They saved my life.
Oh, wow.
Why did my people not alert me of your arrival?
We didn’t see any people.
Yeah, I didn’t see anybody on the way…
There’s no one out there.
They were gone when we got here.
I turned them into my mother in my head and killed them.
[choking]
[Sebastian squeaks]
[animals calling in distance]
[flies buzzing]
Typical Americans. Just run in, guns blazing.
I know, this is messed up. These guys, they’re…
What’s this one do?
They’re fucking idiots, but right now our objectives align with yours.
[sighs]
If Jotunheim contains the technology our intelligence says it does, then it could be used on the people of Corto Maltese as well as Americans. That’s why we need your help to get into the city so we can stop ’em.
Is that rat waving at me?
It appears it is.
Why?
I’m gonna guess because it’s friendly.
Luna and Suarez murdered my entire family. I’d make a deal with the Devil to stop them. Your people will have our help getting to Valle Del Mar to apprehend this Gaius Grieves.
[dramatic music plays]
[projector whirring]
[door buzzes]
Hey. What is this?
You slaughtered my staff!
They were loyal to the Herreras. Who are you loyal to, Thinker? They call you “Thinker,” yes? All that shit in your face is to make your brain good?
Yes, makes my brain good.
Are you being sarcastic with me?
[swearing in Spanish] MOTHERF*CKER!
Hey! Hey.
I shall do to you as we did to your employees.
Hey. Mateo!
[speaks Spanish] Stop being a child.
[in English] What is this?
[Thinker] Project Starfish. It’s been the primary focus of my experiments here for the past 30 years.
[Suarez speaking Spanish] Look at these reckless Americans… bringing the animal aboard the shuttle with no precautions.
[in English] Here. What… What is it doing here?
[Suarez] Oh! It is having little babies.
[Thinker] Not progeny, extensions of itself. They take hosts, and those hosts in turn become part of the central being. It feeds on their consciousnesses. Grows larger, more powerful.
So… [sighs] where is this Project Starfish now?
[Speaking Spanish] The rumors of the beast are true.
Unleash the creature in the U.S., and then it will destroy them all.
No, Mateo. With such a dangerous weapon, the world will take us seriously. The “Big Leagues, ” Mateo.
[in English] Marvelous idea, Presidente. But as I’ve noted, I’ve been working with the beast for 30 years. And there’s no one but me capable of controlling it.
Well, then… welcome to the team.
[footsteps approach]
Si, Camila.
[Camila] Presidente.
[speaking Spanish] The prisoner you wanted has been found.
[Harley] You are making a big mistake throwing me down here! I will be outta here soon enough and I will kill every last one of you, Colto Maltese-tezios. Maltese-els. Malte-multoids. Colt-a-mults? Whatever you Mario Kart-racing d-bags are called!
[Coronel] Please. Put this on.
[soft music playing]
Oh, wow. I’m a princess.
[gasping in awe]
[soft music continues]
Senorita Quinn, on behalf of the entire staff of Our Honorable General Presidente Silvio Eleuterio Luna, it’s a pleasure to serve you.
Gracias.
My mother said to count back again. Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one. Ha! Coronel, beat that…
[classical music playing softly]
Oh.
Forgive my appearance, Senorita Quinn. I have admired you from afar for many years now. Senorita.
Me?
You’re a hero to me, as well as to my people.
I think you might got me confused.
Harley Quinn’s fire and rebellion in the face of American oppression is something to which my entire country aspires.
Oh.
I have prepared lunch. Would you be so kind as to join me?
I’m so kind, sure.

Good, listen. Since I took control, the majority love me. But some find me to be an unacceptable leader.
[laughs] What kinds of dicks would find that? Don’t they know how awesome you are? Have you shown them the birdies?
It may sound archaic to someone from your part of the world, but my people, the Corto Malteseans, they’re very old-fashioned.
Corto Malteseans, of course.
And I am a bachelor.
So they want you to get hitched?
My people say you would make the perfect wife. Because, you know, you symbolize anti-American fervor.
Oh.
But I am a romantic, Harley. I agreed to meet with you just to appease them. However, upon spending the day with you, I find myself hardly able to think straight. You are perfect in every…
You are so freaking hot.

Harley Luna. I like the ring of that.
That’s Jotunheim?
Nazis came here seeking asylum after World War II. They built Jotunheim to continue their unorthodox experiments. Until the Herrera family accepted the bounty on the Nazis’ heads and killed them all.
Wowza.
Many years ago, the rumors began of a beast. These dark rumors helped the Herrera family maintain power. They would send their political enemies and their families to the fortress, never to return. I have recently learned these were not rumors. They were murdering thousands in bizarre experiments with this creature.
Well, it must be a big relief to got it in your hands now, huh?
[Luna] Absolutely. Now, it is our enemies who shall be fearful. If anyone dares to say a negative word about their new president today, their parents, their children, and anyone they ever loved will be sent to Jotunheim to feed the beast.
[gunshot]
[sighs] I’m sorry. Recently, I made a promise to myself that the next time I got a boyfriend, I’d be on the lookout for red flags. And if I saw any, I would do the healthy thing and I would murder him. And killing kids? Kind of a red flag.
[stifled groaning]
I know, I know. I know what you’re tryin’ to say. “Harley, why not just leave?” And I’d say, “Why are you screaming at me? “I’m not deaf. I’m standing right here.” And then I’d say, “When your taste in men is as bad as mine, they don’t just go away quietly. They slash your tires and they kill your dogs and tell you that the music you like ain’t real music at all.” And all the cruelty…
[melancholy music playing]
[sighs]
…tears you apart after a while. You were real pretty and all, and R.I.P. to that absolutely beautiful monster between your legs, but… all in all… I think you’re more pretty like this, with all those rotten thoughts emptied from your head. … I can’t believe this thing had a bullet!
[guards shouting in Spanish] HANDS UP!
[in English] Yeah, yeah, yeah. I got it.
[eerie music plays]
[wings fluttering]
[speaking Spanish] The Generals all agree the title of President falls to you, General. I doubt there will be any pushback beyond the opposition forces.
Silvio was a brother to me. But he always was a romantic. He wanted the world to take him seriously. Meanwhile, he was playing with his birds. … Russia, the U.S., China — won’t take us seriously until the beast destroys them.
President Suarez, what do we do about Quinn?
I’ll wring information out of her. But I doubt she is the only soldier sent by the Americans. Go search for any Americans in town and —

My mother was a scientist at S.T.A.R. Labs, and she was obsessed with turning me and my brothers and sisters into superheroes. She infected me. Now, if I don’t, you know, expel the dots twice a day…
Then what?
They’ll eat me alive. [chuckles dryly]

[Polka Dot Man] Some lived. Some… died.

Fake mustache.
Oh.
Yeah, fake mustache isn’t gonna cut it, mate.
There’s gonna be a lot of soldiers watching Jotunheim. If they discover us there…
Let’s pray they do not, or you will all be dead.
If they do, that’ll leave the palace vulnerable. Luna and the other generals will be left without protection.
You’re a good man, Colonel Flag.
You still look exactly like yourself.
That’s the worst fake mustache I’ve ever seen.

Hey, uh, all that stuff about his daughter, you wouldn’t really do that, right?
You don’t know half of what I would do, John.
[Spanish song continues playing on speaker]
What?
Why are you so afraid of rats?
[sighs] Why are you so in love with them, Ratcatcher 2? You know what I think? I think you have a serious case of daddy issues.
I have no issues with how much I loved my father. … Although he was a genius… we lived homeless in the streets of Portugal ’cause of his… burdens. He built the machines I employ today…
[young Cleo] [giggling]
…and taught me the secrets of calling the rats.
[rats squeaking]
They brought us trinkets to live on. And they kept us warm at night, when we would have frozen. But eventually…
[young Cleo] Papa. Papa, wake up.
…my father’s burdens [tearfully] became too heavy to carry.
[young Cleo] No. No, Papa.
And he was gone.
[young Cleo] Papa, wake up.
I took his machinery and came to America. That is the dream, right? But I was arrested for armed bank robbery, do you believe it? The state considered the rats a weapon. … What?
You remind me of my daughter, the reason I’m here.
Why are you so afraid of rats?
My old man. When I was a lad, if I didn’t finish a task right, he would dole out the punishment. And one day, he just locked me in a crate for 24 hours. And it was full of starvin’ rats.
As imperfect my father was… he loved me.
I wish I could give that to you.
Don’t you worry, yeah? I’m gonna get you out of here alive.

Child, your government didn’t send you here to protect the world from alien technology. Your government sent you here to cover up their part in it.
You’re a goddamn liar.
American goddamn astronauts found Starro. Yankee-fucking-doodle dandies. Although the Cold War was ended, your government saw the potential in weaponizing such a powerful beast, but banish the thought of any such experiments being held on American soil. Your people have always been squeamish about the sacrifices necessary for scientific advancement. So, the United States made a secret deal with the Corto Maltese government to conduct their illegal experiments here in Jotunheim. And they hired me to oversee them. And now, because of a run-of-the-mill fucking military coup, they’re gonna destroy 30 years’ worth of efforts.
[Peacemaker] Yeah! You’re the real victim here.

Smaller bullets.

[tearfully] He killed Colonel Flag. He wanted to share this with the press. It’s proof the American government was behind Project Starfish the whole time.
[Ratcatcher 2 sobbing softly]
[tense music playing]
[distant chattering]
[soldiers shout in Spanish]
[Polka Dot Man] Whoa. Whoa.

[General Vera speaks Spanish] Suarez is dead. That means I am President…

Generals. We the people of Corto Maltese are taking charge of the government. Stand down.
[swears in Spanish] Bitch!
[all screaming]
[breathes heavily]
Whoa.
What the fuck is that?
[Harley] Uh… Hey, guys?

Oh, shit, there’s…

This city is mine.
[growling]
[roaring]
[all moaning]
[electrical whining and buzzing]
Uh, Miss Waller, I think the feed is back up.
[roaring on speaker]
Oh, my God, Miss Waller! We’ve got a freaking kaiju up in this shit!
[indistinct shouting]
[dramatic rock music playing]
[man screams]
[Waller over radio] Task force X, come in. Are you there?
Uh-huh.
Whatever signal jammers were blocking our communications must have been in the building you just demolished.
Yeah, well, we’ve got a mite issue over here, Waller.
It’s Project Starfish, Miss Waller. It’s headed towards the city, and I think it wants to feed on as many people as it can.
[people screaming]
[Waller] Not our problem. If you’ve destroyed Jotunheim and the records within, you’ve achieved the objective. Corto Maltese is no longer a U.S. ally. If anything, the White House will consider fomenting disruption in a hostile nation a positive development.
[people screaming]
[creatures chittering]
[all grunting]
[tires screeching]
You heard what she said.
[people continue screaming in distance]
Fuck.
[dramatic music plays]
[alarm wails]
Bloodsport is off mission.
What the…
She’ll kill you, you know.
That’s her business.
I knew Sebastian sensed good in you for a reason.
Just keep that fucking rat away from me.
Ratcatcher is also off mission.
Bloodsport, Ratcatcher, turn around.
Where go, friends?
[Waller] Nanaue!
I know what I’m carrying the javelin for.
[alarms wailing]
Krill, turn around now! Turn back now, God damn it!
Open it.
Miss Waller…
Open it!
What are you doing, Task Force X?
[inspirational music playing]
Fuck!
[device beeping]
Turn around now, God damn it! You dumb pieces of shit! Motherfuckers!
[chuckles]
God damn it, Task Force X, this is your last motherfucking warning!
[beeping continues]
[grunts]
[John squeals]
Oh, my God! What the fuck did you do?
All those people, John. Little kids.
[Dale gasping]
Task Force X, the creature is headed to Calle Principal. Avoid Avenida Medrano. There is a swarm of infected.
[John] Jesus. So, your clearest path is Calle Aguero.
Get on the satellite, Dale, you fucking dickhead!
Yes, ma’am.

God!
[slow, somber music playing]
No! No!
[grunts]
Oh, no…
This city is mine!
This city isn’t yours. This city isn’t ours. This city is theirs.
[inspirational rock music playing]
Oh, hell.

[Bloodsport whimpering]

Why rats, Papa?
Rats are the lowliest and most despised of all creatures, my love. If they have purpose, so do we all.
[inspirational rock music continues]

[roaring weakly]
I was happy, floating, staring at the stars.

[reporter on tv] A group of escaped convicts saved a city of millions on the small island nation of Corto Maltese today.
That’s my dad.
[Sol Soria] Because of these people, Corto Maltese will have free democratic elections for the first time in 90 years.
[fighters chanting] Viva Corto Maltese! Viva Corto Maltese! Viva Corto Maltese! Viva…
That’s my dad.
…Corto Maltese! Viva…
[pensive music playing]
[sobs softly]
[Bloodsport] Yeah.
Yeah.
Oh, that’s just a taste of what’s on that drive. I’ve uploaded it all to a secure server. Now, if you kill any one of us, or my daughter ever sees the inside of a prison, it goes public. If we all go free, it never has to see the light of day.
I told you I’d make you a leader, DuBois. You got a deal.
[King Shark grunts]
Nanaue.
[panting]
[soft music playing]
Look, I know Flag wanted to give the drive to the press, but we just saved a whole bloody city. We can’t have it all. Flag was my friend.
Mine too. And I haven’t got many of those.
I could be your friend, Milton.
Not my name.
What? What are you talkin’ about? We just had a conversation for, like, three hours about how your name is Milton.
Didn’t.
[scoffs] Yes, we did.
No. Our ride’s here.
Hmm.
[helicopter whirring]
Nom nom?
Really? That is what you’re thinkin’ about right now?
No. That nom nom though.
[Ratcatcher 2] No, it’s not nom nom.
No!

Said they found him in the rubble. They were shocked his heart was still beating. I wasn’t certain how safe it was, shipping him back here. But, if anything, he’s shown he’s resilient. It’ll take some surgery, but eventually we’ll get him back up to speed.
You realize this is revenge, right? Waller knows we double-crossed her, and she’s getting back at us by saddling us with this douchebag.
Yep.
I heard he was sort of a hero down in Corto Maltese.
Oh, is that what you heard? Because not quite.
[Dr. Alandy] What do you guys want him for?
Just to save the fucking world, that’s all.
