Unable to breach the safe room, the attackers set the building on fire hoping to burn the men out. Wickland takes Stevens and Smith, an IT specialist, to the safe room. The 17-Feb guards are quickly overrun, which allows the attackers easy access to the compound. That night, a group of militants from Ansar al-Sharia assault the compound. Back at the Annex, Silva finds out that his wife is pregnant.

US Ambassador Chris Stevens arrives in Benghazi to maintain diplomatic connections amid the political and social chaos, with limited protection from five DS agents, principally Scott Wickland and Dave Ubben, along with guards hired from the local February 17th Martyrs Brigade militia, nicknamed '17-Feb.' On the morning of the eleventh anniversary of the September 11 attacks, Stevens notices suspicious men taking pictures of the compound and notifies his security detail. They review the location and warn its Diplomatic Security (DS) agents about the risk of minimal-security arrangements and the high probability of a surprise attack due its volatile circumstances. Prior to the US Ambassador's arrival, the GRS team members visit the Special Mission, where the Ambassador will be staying. Arriving at the Annex, Silva is introduced to the rest of the GRS team and the CIA Chief of Station, who constantly gives the team strict reminders to never engage the citizens. New to the detail is Jack Silva, who arrives in Benghazi and is picked up by Tyrone 'Rone' Woods, the commander of the GRS team and a personal friend of Silva. Less than a mile away is a CIA outpost, 'the Annex,' which is protected by a team of private military contractors from Global Response Staff (GRS). The United States still has a diplomatic compound, not an official consulate, open in the city. In 2012, Benghazi in Libya is named one of the most dangerous places in the world, and countries have pulled their diplomatic offices out of the country in fear of an attack by militants.
