For why Shepherd live. Is because he survived the knife stabbed on his eye. It didn't very much pierce through him. He was also sentenced in court and sh*ts, but they just let him go, so yeah. F*ck.
Price and Ghost watch a video on their laptop of Kate Laswell in a moving vehicle, held at gunpoint a masked Al-Qatala fighter. General Shepherd is on the other line. Ghost gestures to Price, he doesn't wan't to talk with Shepherd. But Price insisted.
Ghost :This is proof of life.
Price :Where did this come from?
Shepherd (in laptop) :Urzikstan.
Price :Look... They're pointing east.
Shepherd (in laptop) :Likely at Al Mazrah.
Price :We'll lead the rescue team.
Price starts to move before Shepherd interjects.
Shepherd :That's not gonna happen, John.
Price stops in his tracks.
Ghost :Say again, Sh*thead?
Shepherd (in laptop) :This is a tug o' war, boys. We need to pull back, not lean forward.
Ghost :F*ck you. Since when, you bastard?
Shepherd (in laptop) :Since now. We can't just send in the cavalry. These things take planning and preparation.
Price :These things take violence and timing, I can do both. Kate's life is in a fuckin' hourglass.
An airborne UH-60 Black Hawk approaches, which Ghost waves down
Shepherd (in laptop) :I know you're upset, Captain. This happened on your mission and that's a tough pill to swallow.
Price :Are you telling me, we leave her?
Shepherd (in laptop) :I'm telling you I can't help you... But I won't stop you.
Price and Ghost look at each other for a moment.
Price :I'll have her back in twelve hours.
Before Price closes the laptop. Ghost give's Shepherd the middle finger.
Shepherd (in laptop) :Don't die doin' this, John. Laswell wouldn't want that. I don't either.
Price :General, I thought Kate was your friend?
Shepherd (in laptop) :War isn't about friends. It's about enemies. Good luck.
Price hands Ghost the laptop and they start walking toward the helicopter that's just landing.
Ghost :We'd be going head to head with AQ on their home turf. They're going to have hundreds more protecting Laswell. We need an army.
Price :I can get us an army.
Price and Ghost board the helicopter as Price turns to the cockpit.
