The colonel tells the men that he has come to tell them about the tension between the U.S. and the syrian navy. He tells them that the Russian authorities have allowed the navies to die for political reasons. He also tells them about Dr. Mengele, who has not been able to get the technology out of the ship. The colonel asks the men if they would like to meet with him, and they all say yes. He then tells them to get back on the ship and prepare for the rescue mission.
