As Georg approaches Maria's cottage, he can see a few bedraggled Russian bandits digging a grave. There are two bodies on the ground next to them, with a bedsheet draped over each. ''I hope those aren't friends of mine.'' Georg thinks, looking at the corpses. The erstwhile gravediggers turn to look at Georg and his escort--now only two Georgian soldiers with their weapons holstered. The rest of his men and the rest of the Georgians are hanging back about 300m away... at the maximum range for small-arms fire.

There are two more bandits standing guard outside the front door to the cottage. Georg and his guards are ushered inside with a sneer. The scene inside causes Georg's blood to freeze. It's Maria, bruised and beaten, tied up to a chair. She's tied back-to-back with someone else... Yuriy. Georg finds him easy to recognize even after all these years, thanks to all the newspaper photos. Unlike Maria, Yuriy seems uninjured. As Georg scans the room, he notes that there are 6 more Russian bandits in the main room. Dmitri, the Russian bandit leader, speaks--in Georgian. "Who is this?" The Georgian soldiers look surprised, but the taller one responds, "You said you wanted a prisoner exchange. This one is the leader of the bandits we captured not far from here..." The Georgian starts sounding a little less sure of himself, "He's one of yours... isn't he?"

Dmitri gives Georg a hard stare, ''Today is your lucky day, my friend,'' Dmitri thinks to himself, ''I don't know you, and you don't know me, but it seems like we're fighting on the same side and I can use all the help I can get with this double-cross...'' Still looking at Georg, Dmitri speaks only one word in Russian, "Duck!" For Georg, time slows to a crawl as he drops to the ground. All around him, things start happening ''very'' quickly...
