Citizen Soldier and his men has taken over the Capitol Building. Santini argues with Giant in keeping himself and the Homeland Security Squadron from interfering, given that Santini is wary of them possibly causing more civilian casualties (especially Giant's previous actions at the United Nations). In the end, Santini relents to the Squadron's intervention.
