There's no question, gentlemen.
We need firsthand intelligence
of the tunnel systems.
:26:05
- So what about the former warden?
- Died in 1979.
:26:08
All the guards
we contacted were useless.
:26:11
Umm... there is someone who,
I think, can help us.
:26:18
This is for the sake
of national security.
:26:20
No, it's the sake of national
security that got us here
in the first place 33 years ago.
:26:25
I knew... I knew someday this would
come back to bite us. Forget it.
:26:28
- He does not exist.
- He does exist!
:26:31
We just chose to forget him
for 30 years. We locked him
up and threw away the key.
:26:35
Oh, and a lot of
goddam good it did us.
:26:37
He broke out of two maximum security

:26:42
Thirty years ago he was
a highly-trained SAS operative.
:26:45
He is my age now, for Christ's

:26:50
[Quietly]
We can't risk letting him out.
:26:52
He's a professional escape artist.

Biochemistry/ toxicology?
:27:42
Well, I'm one of those fortunate
people who like my job, sir.
:27:45
Got my first chemistry set when
I was seven. Blew my eyebrows off.
:27:48
We never saw the cat again.
Been into it ever since. [Chuckles]
:27:50
- What do you know about VX gas?
- Liquid.
:27:53
Failed pesticide discovered
by mistake in 1952.
:27:55
Uh, actually it's kind of
like champagne that way.
The Franciscan monks thought...
:27:58
they were making white wine, somehow
the bottle carbonated, voila, champagne,
