A warlord ousts a legitimate government, of a small African Island nation. They travel to America and ask Shepherd to take his team in and stage a 'reverse coup' for them. Taking on a whole army, in a country where they can gain no intelligence is a big risk and would be extremely dangerous. If they manage it though the ex-government will pay them a fee of $10 million dollars, a fee that is more than enough to persuade Chance and CJ that it is worth attempting.
