>>> CHAOS IN TRIPOLI THIS AFTERNOON.
BROOKE BALDWIN JOINED BY CIA ANALYST ARTHUR WENTZEL.
>> HELLO. >> ALL SATELLITE COMMUNICATIONS
WERE CUT OFF BUT WE WERE ABLE TO CONNECT WITH OUR REPORTER ON THE
PHONE. BRIAN, CAN YOU HEAR ME?
>> Reporter: YES, HELLO, I'M HERE AT THE HOTEL WITH OTHER
JOURNALISTS TAKING REFUGE FROM THE WAR ZONE OUTSIDE.
I APOLOGIZE ABOUT THE PICTURE QUALITY.
I'M USING A SOCIAL STREAMING APP ON MY PHONE THAT IS SOMEHOW ABLE
TO GET THROUGH. >> BRIAN, ARE YOU THERE?
>> SOUNDED LIKE SOME SORT OF EXPLOSION.
>> BRIAN, ARE YOU OKAY? >> YES, I AM OKAY.
THAT WAS A MORTAR ROUND. THERE IS A LOT OF ACTIVITY
IMMEDIATELY OUTSIDE OF THE HOTEL.
IS EVERYONE OKAY? I WON'T LIE.
I'M VERY SCARED RIGHT NOW. >> BRIAN, ARE YOU USING SNAPCHAT
TO CONNECT WITH US? >> Reporter: I THINK SO.
MY SCREEN WAS SHATTERED, I CAN'T SEE MY SCREEN.
CAN YOU SEE ME? >> YES, WE CAN, AND YOU LOOK, I
WANT TO SAY, LIKE SIMON'S GIRLFRIEND FROM ALVIN AND THE
CHIPMUNKS. IT'S DUMB, BUT I'M SMILING.
>> Reporter: AGAIN, I'M SORRY, I CANNOT SEE MY SCREEN.
SOMEONE IS TRYING TO GET INTO MY ROOM.
>> BRIAN, DO YOU KNOW WHO'S TRYING TO GET INTO YOUR ROOM?
>> AND ARE THOSE FILTERS FREE WITH THE APP OR TOOUF TO PAY?
>> Reporter: SOLDIERS WITH GUNS HAVE ENTERED MY ROOM.
I'M UNARMED. I'M AN AMERICAN JOURNALIST.
AMERICAN! >> OKAY, WE SEEM TO HAVE LOST
THE FEED. WE HOPE BRIAN IS OKAY.
ARTHUR, AS AN EXPERT IN THIS REGION, WHAT DO YOU MAKE OF WHAT
WE JUST SAW? >> WELL, I BELIEVE THAT WAS A
MEERKAT BUT IT COULD HAVE BEEN A LEMUR.
EITHER WAY, THAT'S THE BEST ONE I'VE SEEN.
>> I'M BEING TOLD THE FEED IS BACK.
BRIAN? >> Reporter: YES, HELLO, THIS IS
A LIEUTENANT IN THE PEOPLE'S MILITIA.
HE HAS AGREED TO SPEAK WITH US. >> LIEUTENANT, WHAT IS YOUR
ORGANIZATION FIGHTING FOR? >> FREEDOM!
WAIT, I CAN SEE ON THE TV I LOOK SILLY.
>> YES, AND WE APOLOGIZE. BUT LIEUTENANT, IF YOU GAINED
POWER, WOULD YOU PROMISE TO HOLD OPEN ELECTIONS?
>> OH, MY GOD, LOOK HOW WEIRD I AM.
CAN YOU IMAGINE IF I LOOKED LIKE THIS?
HA HA HA HA! I LOOK LIKE OLD-TIMEY DOCTOR WHO
COMES TO YOUR HOUSE WITH A BAG. >> I WAS GOING TO SAY ELLIS
ISLAND IMMIGRANT BUT I SEE WHAT YOU MEAN BY OLD-TIMEY DOCTOR.
>> THIS IS SERIOUS. >> BUT HE LOOKS FUNNY.
>> LIEUTENANT, IF I MAY ASK, WHO IS IN CHARGE OF YOUR MILITIA?
>> WAIT, WAIT. OUR LEADER IS HERE RIGHT NOW.
WOULD YOU LIKE TO SPEAK TO HER? >> VERY MUCH, YES.
MA'AM? MA'AM, ARE YOU THERE?
MA'AM? >> HI, DO YOU LIKE MY HAIR?
DO YOU LIKE MY MAKEUP? >> HUBBA HUBBA.
>> I MUST GO. BUT TO THE WORLD I SAY THIS.
BLOOD WILL NEVER STOP FLOWING UNTIL OUR PEOPLE ARE FREE, HA
HA! FUNNY DANCE!
>> SOUNDS LIKE THE FIGHTING IS CLOSE.
>> YES, HE'D BETTER HOP TO IT. >> BRIAN, ARE YOU STILL THERE?
>> UH, YES. THE FIGHTING IS IN THE HOTEL
NOW. SOLDIERS ARE MOVING US TO A NEW
LOCATION. I'M UNCLEAR WHERE I AM GOING.
OH, MY GOD, THAT'S A DEAD BODY. KIDS, IF YOU WANT TO BE A
JOURNALIST, THIS IS WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE.
BRIAN MAKINS, LIVE IN TRIPOLI. >> STAY SAFE, BRIAN.
THAT WAS SOME BRAVE REPORTING, PLAIN AND SIMPLE.
>> NOT PLAIN. MUSTARD.
>> GO. WE'LL BE RIGHT BACK.
OUT.
