We want our money now! Warning shot! No! (RAPID GUNFIRE) (MEN TALK FRANTICALLY IN FOREIGN LANGUAGE) Lights out! (DRAMATIC MUSIC) (MEN GRUNT AND MOAN) I'll kill him. I swear I'll kill him! Drop your guns! Fat chance. Yeah, that'll happen. Last chance. Let the hostages go or you're out of there. Bring the money here to me. (SPEAKS FOREIGN LANGUAGE) I'll take the four on the left.

Bullets go faster than blades. Bring the money here now! You want the money? Go get it. (BUZZING) What's that? I'm getting a text. Excuse me? Kill them! I'd call that a tie. Come on. Keep dreaming. These guys have arrested development. A little compassion, folks. I don't think you hit one of them. I don't see any knives, actually. How you guys doing? What the hell is he doing? Hanging a pirate. Don't be ridiculous. Gunner, what are you doing? Hanging a pirate. That is seriously demented. This is no good. You're on your own. I appreciate it. It's good to have friends. Gunner. Yeah. This isn't how we work. Let him go. Why? He'd do it to us. Gunner, last chance. Let him go or we let you go. It's good to hang pirates. (DRAMATIC MUSIC) We don't kill like that. Yeah? Not polite enough? (TRIGGER CLICKS) Let him go, Gunner. How you doing, Barney? Pretty good. My partner here kicked me with steel-tipped boots. Can you believe that? You deserved it.

Be careful. Go. Gunner, you cool? Yeah. No, keep it. You appreciate a good blade. Is he all right? Yeah. The life just got to him. Hmm. It'll get to all of us. (DOORBELL DINGS) WOMAN: Coming! Who is it? Some day you'll find a man who'll be happy just to watch you sleep. Oh, hi. I didn't know you were back. Hey, babe. Yeah, I just arrived. Hi. Wow. You look great. I wish you would have called. Ah, I've never been a good caller. I haven't heard from you in over a month. Really? Time flies, huh? It won't happen again. Sorry. But I do have a surprise. Rose-flavoured ` your favourite. And, um, I did have something else for you. Something I picked up... from Burma. It's a ruby. It's a good colour, but it's hard to see in this light. It's, um... It kind of looked a little shinier when I bought it in the shop, you know? MAN: Lace ` everything all right? Yeah. Who's he? He, uh... He's a friend. It's kind of late. You got a name? Friend. She just told you. Lee, come on. Don't leave like this. Wait. I'm sorry. I thought things were good between us. I felt like you never cared about getting into my life or letting me into yours. Stop! Yeah, sure I did. No! I've known you for over a year and a half. I don't even know what you do for a living. What's it matter? When I'm here, I'm with you. THAT matters. What matters is when you're here, you're not really here. You're a good man, I love you, but... Lace! I hate his voice. Did you say something? Don't let him come down here. Please tell me you understand what I'm saying. You have to understand. I understand. You take care. Lee. (STARTS BIKE) He's no good, Lace. (CREEDENCE CLEARWATER REVIVAL'S 'KEEP ON CHOOGLIN') Hey, brother. Don't you ever sleep? Oh, this is my friend, uh... What's your name again, baby? Cheyenne. Cheyenne. Cheyenne, Arapaho, Cherokee, Pawnee. You want a drink? I'm good. Why don't you... why don't you run upstairs and get me one of them super-duper six-olive martinis, baby? Anything for you, baby. You got it. Whoo! She got a crush on me. Like the last 50. Hey, brother, who's counting? Damn, you look good. Yeah, man. Look at you. Like a goddamn cold piece of steel, brother. Yeah, well... OK, my friend, let's finish this bird up. Well, let's do it, bro. It's taken you a couple of years to do a couple of letters. We had to get rid of Gunner. Oh, well, he went Crankenstein on your ass, you gotta cut him loose. Yeah, you wanna fill in? Let me tell you something. Remember where we was last time? Where were we, ass-deep in that mud and blood? Nigeria. Yeah. And your hand was all shot to shit, you were bleeding all over the place and I was bleeding. You know what I did? I promised myself ` I don't wanna die all alone, full of holes in the mud and the blood. I'm gonna die with something that counts. I'm gonna die with a woman. I wanna die with someone who, I don't know, cares about me, you know? I don't wanna die FOR a woman. I wanna die laying next to a woman. That's what I want. (GATE OPENS, MOTORCYCLE ENGINE REVS) It's Christmas time. Yeah, I can smell him from here. Mr Christmas. How you doing, brother? Uh, I'm good, Tool. Take a look. What do you think? Yeah, still looks like a black chicken. Black chicken. Black chicken? You done? All done. It's a damn raven. Oh man. It's good to see you, brother. Wow. You know what? For you, I got a great idea. Why don't you let me doodle, like ` I don't know ` a Charlotte's Web on your head, on the top of your head. You know, something different, something exciting. Cos you've got one of them perfectly shaped, domed, muscular heads. I could put a... little web on the top of the head, maybe a pregnant Charlotte coming out of your ear, peeking around, making sure other bugs don't come inside, her long leg dangling down your neck. Yeah, sexy, right? Very sexy. Give you a little mystery, a little more character and very fu... sexy, you understand? Makes him stand out. He looks thrilled. Well, OK, I tell you what. I'm feeling a little lucky tonight. I'm feeling very accurate. Nah, another time. Come on. Come on. Take him on. Come on, Christmas. Bring it, baby. Don't encourage him, please. He never beat you in your life. Come on, Christmas. No disgrace in losing. Whoa. (PHONE RINGS) Yes. TOOL: Hmm? Yeah. OK. Well, I got three pieces of work. Two, a walk in the park, and one to hell and back. I need some time alone. Hey, cheer up. Make the meeting. (DRAMATIC MUSIC) 1 (MEN YELL IN FOREIGN LANGUAGE) (MAN ON LOUDSPEAKER SPEAKS IN FOREIGN LANGUAGE) General! (SPEAKS IN FOREIGN LANGUAGE) Now we can see inside of him. And I see lies. He wasn't stealing from you. He was stealing from us both. You want your apes'respect? Snuff those two. BARNEY: Let's just keep it simple. If the money's right, we don't care where the job is. Got it? MAN: Let's quit jerking off, get down to business, see who's hungry. I know your real name's probably not Barney Ross. You don't need to know my name. The only thing you need to know is the job's real and the money's real. But since we're in this nice place,... why don't you just call me Mr Church? OK, Church, what can I do for you? In a minute. I'm still waiting for one more guy. Who? (SIGHS) CHURCH: You know him? Yeah. We used to be on the same team together. What's my oldest worst friend doing here? Both of your names came to the top of the list. Is that a problem? Yeah. I should have shot him when I had a chance. Big Barney Ross. Bigger Trench Mouse. What are you doing? Praying for work? Could be. Have you been sick? You've lost weight. Really? Well, whatever weight I lost, you found, pal. (CHUCKLES) You guys aren't gonna start sucking each other's dicks, are ya? (LAUGHS) Let's get down to business, see who wants to work. You ever hear of an island called Vilena? No. Yeah. It's a little island in the Gulf. That's right. You should read more. Thanks. There are resources on that island that my people are very interested in. But a general by the name of Garza has overthrown the half-assed government. That's right. My people are having a problem with this fanatic Garza. So you want Garza gone? I want him dead. All it takes is a little army. Only an idiot would do this job. How much? Oh, like I said... I'm busy anyway, so give this job to my friend here. He loves playing in the jungle, right? Right. That's right. Hey, why don't we have dinner? Sure. When? In a thousand years. Too soon. What's his fucking problem? He wants to be president. I gotta recon this island first. I have a contact for you on the island. Good riddance. I got a feeling everyone else has passed on this job, so our fee is five mill. Five mill? I want half up-front and the other half in an offshore account. You got a problem with that? No. What I have a problem with is people trying to fuck me over. So if you take this money and you don't deliver, if you try to fuck me in some kind of weird cockamamie scheme of yours, me and my people are gonna come get you and your people and chop you up into little fucking dog treats. You have a problem with that? Let's talk. Vilena. Yeah, Vilena. They got work there? Come on. You know you shouldn't be here, Gunner. Don't replace me. I'm good. I'm still good. You're still using. I can't trust you any more, man. You can't trust me? I can't. You can't trust me? Be careful. Are you threatening me, Gunner? No. I'm a nice guy. BARNEY: So going over the info this guy Church gave me, there's probably about 6000 people on the island. How many soldiers? Maybe a couple of hundred. Wouldn't take much more than that to control a space that small. Great, they've got a small army. What have we got? Four and a half men. (CHRISTMAS CHUCKLES) Not so funny. Ooh! I need a raise. Why? I need more money for my son. I want to send him to a better school. When did Yin Yang get a family? I have no idea. You don't ask, I don't tell. Anyway, the pay shares stay the same. That's the way it's gonna be. Now, the target on this island is a guy named General Garza. What's the problem? Who gives a shit what the problem is? We got enough problems right here of our own. We don't get rid of those first, they're gonna get rid of us. Toll Road, when was the last time you saw your analyst? This morning. Yeah? What did you talk about? Avoidant personality disorder. You think too much. You know, Toll Road, you're an unusual guy and you're always gonna have unusual problems, right? 'Unusual'? You're talking about my ear. Oh, come on. Don't start with the ear again. The ear story. Not again. We all know the ear story. We don't wanna hear it. Let's just concentrate on the job. Shit, no. You guys started this. We all know I wrestled in college. Right. A common injury associated with that sport is trauma to the ear ` a clot which, if left unattended, causes a contraction in the cartilage and forms cauliflower ears. And your point is? It ain't easy being green. Anyway, me and Christmas are gonna head down to Vilena, and scout the island to see if we should take the job. How much we get paid? I need more money for my family. What family? My family. (ROCK 'N' ROLL MUSIC) BARNEY: Listen, that girl wasn't your type. Her loss, right? I should've broke that bastard's jaw. Maybe you were lucky. He could've broke yours. Impossible. You know, Christmas, I understand, but let's just say you're with her for a couple of hours, and it's nice and it's hot and heavy, but after that, think about it ` what do you do for the rest of the day? She probably did you a favour. Now you have more time to feel sorry for yourself. You're a bleak bastard. (ROCK 'N' ROLL MUSIC CONTINUES) (TENSE MUSIC) Morning. Morning. Morning. Speak English? Big plane, huh? Yeah, we use it to transport injured animals. Why are you here? Ornithologists. We're photographing exotic birds. You nervous? Nervous? No. Why? You just look nervous. I'm not nervous. Do I look nervous? Your skin looks a little dry. I think you should fly with the window closed. It's the altitude. It is the altitude. It'll get to you. 1 (CHATTERS QUIETLY) (BOY SPEAKS IN SPANISH) What's the address? It's in my head. Well, do you want to share it? It's the Gloria Canteen. So actually Canteen Gloria. It's Spanish. Spanish? Who are you, Zorro? Army. Shh. (TRUCK HORN HONKS) Come on. In there. (TRUCK HORN HONKS) (PEOPLE SPEAK FRANTICALLY IN SPANISH) (TRUCK HORN HONKS) You rolling? Yeah. You! You! Move the truck. (YELLS IN SPANISH) Get the suit. Tighten up on the suit. Got it. Look at these clowns. Hand-picked monkeys. (YELLS IN SPANISH) Vamonos! What's wrong with this picture? Everything. Let's get out of here. CHRISTMAS: No, that's the point. You think you know someone and you truly do not. Aren't you the guy who said, 'The man who best gets along with women 'is the man who can get along without them'? That's bullshit. Truthfully, she wasn't your type. Well, I wasn't finished. Look, enjoy your freedom. Yeah, you wait till it happens to you. It has. (SPEAKS SPANISH) The contact's late. All right, let's go. Chill. Have you ever been rejected? You're really pushing the boundaries of our relationship. You know that? (SENSUAL SPANISH MUSIC) Is that the contact? It could be. Too bad she's so homely. Stay focused. Are you the contact? I'm Sandra. What are your names? Buddha. Pest. Follow me, please. Buddha and Pest. Nice. You do all these? Yes. Take one. A gift. I don't take free gifts. Uh,... how much do you want for it? Nothing. Take money for something, it's not a gift. Take nothing for something, it is. CHRISTMAS: Is it like this all the time? This place was a beautiful place. Then one day they came with money and General Garza sold his soul. And people who fight back are killed. You said 'THEY came with money'. Who's 'they'? Some Americans. That's all I know. But some day all this will change back. You really believe that? Yes. The best day will be the one when we can say our lives are our own again. You have a family, Sandra? My mother, when I was little, she died. And my father,... he's gone too. Sandra, how close can you get to the palace? The palace? Why? Oh, we just wanna check out the view. There is no view. Why don't we just go there anyway, OK? Where is my growth? Where is your manpower? Do you know how long it takes for a coca field to produce? Of course you don't. Let me tell you. We are eight weeks behind schedule. Kick your peasants' asses, get me my product. When you talk like this to me in front of my men, it is no good. I am your lifeline. I am the one who coordinates all this confusion. I am making you rich, and being wealthy is very good. It allows people to be the real asswipes nature intended them to be. Sometimes... things are just not worth the money. Sure they are. Sandra, are we close? It's just over there. Pull over, please. Where are you going? Where am I going? Well, I suppose you could say we like to look at the world from different views. Don't lose my hat. We should get going. He's very emotional. (HELICOPTER WHIRRS IN DISTANCE) What are you looking for? Sandra, how do I know you're not setting us up? What does 'setting us up' mean? You don't look like the kind of person we usually deal with. How did you get involved in this? An American came here. He asked my friend to show you around. He was afraid, so he asked me to. Are you're not afraid? I'm afraid. But he said maybe you can help Vilena. I don't think so. Listen. If I were you, I'd leave. Just leave. You should leave. (GUNSHOTS) (MAN YELLS IN SPANISH) Don't say anything. Let me talk. (SANDRA SCREAMS) Hey! Argh! Argh! Oh! Run! (DRAMATIC MUSIC) (MAN YELLS INDISTINCTLY) Argh! Ohh! Get her! Got it. (GROANS) Oh! (BOTH YELL IN SPANISH) Ohh! Are you crazy?! You could've killed me! You're welcome. What? (SPEAKS RAPIDLY IN SPANISH) All right. Speed it up. We're on the way. If we get out of here, it's a miracle. She's coming with us, right? She'd better. How can we leave? We got a plane. No, I can't leave. Well, you don't have a choice. Yes, I do. They'll find you in an hour. Maybe, but I'm staying. Stay for what? There's nothing here. Not to you. You stay and you're dead. She's leaving with us. (PEOPLE YELL AND SCREAM) (TYRES SQUEAL) (TYRES SQUEAL) (PEOPLE YELL) I got the guys inside. Give me a 60-second lead. You got it. Go, go, go! Come on. Get in. Get in. Get in! No, no, no. I can't. Let's go. I can't. I belong here. There's no time! Go. You go. Please, go! Shit. (ENGINES CHUG) Hey! You look nervous. (PLANE ENGINES WHIRR) (CAR HORN HONKS) Come on! (BRAKES SQUEAK) (ENGINES REV) Run, you bastard. Come on. (SOLDIERS YELL IN SPANISH) (GROANS) Where's the girl? Gone. She wouldn't leave. Wouldn't leave, huh? Why the hell would anybody wanna stay? To hell with it. To hell with it. Climb, baby. Climb. Come on, baby. Goddamn it. Going back? Yeah. Run and die. Run and die. Let's do it. (RAPID GUNFIRE) (YELLING) (HISSING) What are they doing? (BANG!) Yes! Great job. That was a statement. MUNROE: How did two obvious professionals pass right through security personnel, kill 41 soldiers and get away? With help, that's how. Everything's under control except one detail ` a daughter who wants her father and company dead and gone. Bad Shakespeare. Somehow the company parasites got to her. Look, she's your daughter, and that's tragic. But blood or not, she goes. Call it the price of doing business. You don't kill your familia. Come around my house during the holidays, pal. (BANGS ON DOOR) Nice bird. First of all, I don't feel comfortable talking business with a giant carrying a shotgun. Pretty boy wouldn't give it up. Not if you wanna know where they are. What do you know? I used to be one of them. Why are you turning on them? Lovers' quarrel. We settle on 50. No, math whiz. We settle on 100 grand up-front in my pocket. Guy thinks he's a real bad-ass. This geezer's a bloody joke. Life's a joke, shitbird. (GRUNTS) If you don't want that Fu Manchu knocked back into the '60s, you'd better keep your gum-chewing trap shut and show some respect. Bring it. Hey, be nice. Need a facelift, pretty boy? Back off, Paine. I'm gonna kill him. We need him. Back off! BARNEY: Here's what I think is happening. This guy who calls himself Church is really a front for the CIA. So we're working for the Agency? Yeah, Church hired us to take out the general, but the real target's this guy, James Munroe. He used to be with the Agency, but got greedy, went rogue, and teamed up with the general to keep the whole drug operation for themselves, and that's a big cash loss. But Church and the Agency can't afford to send in the Navy Seals or Special Forces Then they're back in business. And we're taken out. Nobody's gonna miss us. Is it still $5 million? We'd never live to spend it. I'm telling Church the deal's off. BARNEY: Sound about right? It's about right. I agree. Where is he? MAN 1: Come on. MAN 2: I'm open. Here. Here. (CHRISTMAS REVS MOTORBIKE) Hey, who the hell is that? Some punk. Don't worry about it. We got your back. MAN: If he comes over here we'll bust his ass. What do you want? Your life. I was thinking about taking it. Is that right? But I don't do so well in tight spaces, so going to prison worries me. You shouldn't have bruised her face. Really? Would've liked to have kept it as it was. Keep the bitch, 'cause I'm done with it. (YELLS) (MAN SCREAMS) Ya! (GROANING) MAN: Oh! (CHRISTMAS GRUNTS) (MAN SCREAMS) (MOANING) (GROANS LOUDLY) Lee. (AIR HISSES LOUDLY) (WHIMPERS) Next time I'll deflate all your balls, friend. (MOTORBIKE REVS) Now you know what I do for a living. I'm not perfect, but you should have waited. I was worth it. (REVS ENGINE) (CROWD YELLS) (GUNFIRE) (DISTANT YELLING) So your daughter paints too? This is how it starts. MUNROE: Let's go. There's nothing here. Or how it ends. (GUNFIRE) What's the matter, Barney? Don't you ever sleep? Nah. What happened to your girlfriend? (CHUCKLES) Another one bites the dust, brother. I was going to paint this for her. And you know what? I'm gonna finish it. Then I'm just going to smash the shit out of it. You want to be alone? Not really. So what's up? On this island there was this girl. Well, usually are. BARNEY: Yeah. She showed us around. She was the target's daughter. When she had a chance to leave... ..she didn't do it. She had some guts. Why can't I get that out of my mind? Hmm. You know, she stands for something. You know, man, we don't stand for shit. We used to but that dried all up like this is gonna dry all up, this here paint is gonna dry. What dried up? Hmm. Just belief, man. Just the belief and the soul. Just... I don't know. The human parts, brother. You remember that time we was up in Bosnia and we took down them Serb bad boys? All our guys were getting chopped up all around us and there was blood everywhere. I never thought I was gonna make it out of there and I know you... you didn't either. Yeah. Kind of feeling, like, dead too, you know? My head's all a very, very black place. I don't believe in shit, just goddamn Dracula black. I remember I got this bottle of that local shit they have over there, that 'silovitz'. I don't know. I think that's what it was called. And I ain't feeling no pain now... and I come up on this... I come up on this old wooden bridge and I see this... I see this... (EXHALES SHAKILY) I see this woman standing there, you know, and she's... I stepped out and she saw me, and she's just looking right... right in my eyes, and I was looking right in her eyes. I knew what she was gonna do. She looked at me, and I knew she was gonna jump. You know what I did, man? I just turned around and I kept walking... till I heard that splash. (CLEARS THROAT) Then she was gone and after... after taking all them lives, here was one that I could have saved. But I didn't, and what I realised later on was... if I'd have saved that woman I might have, I don't know, saved what was left of my soul, you know? (METAL CLANKS) Life's better together. (GENTLE PIANO MUSIC) (SPEAKS INAUDIBLY) (MUSIC CONTINUES) Life's better together. Join Vodafone on a monthly plan, and if you don't love our network within 30 days, we'll give you your money back. That's our network guarantee. 1 A very wise dead man once told me that a real man never strikes a woman. You push some if you have to, but you never strike. That's the way I was raised. This man, however, does not share that moral dilemma. No, this man... (SANDRA BREATHES HEAVILY) Well. So the question, Sandra ` why were the Americans here? (GARZA SHOUTS WITH RAGE) (GLASS SHATTERS) (SHRIEKS) No! No! (YELLS DESPERATELY IN SPANISH) Don't fight back. (MAN SHOUTS IN SPANISH) Just relax. SANDRA: No! (SANDRA SPLUTTERS) (SANDRA GAGS, GULPS) (SANDRA GASPS) (COUGHS, BREATHES RAGGEDLY) (SANDRA GASPS BREATHLESSLY) Again, what did the Americans tell you? Who are they after? (BREATHES RAGGEDLY) Continue. BARNEY: I'm going back to Vilena. CHRISTMAS: Yeah? Something change? What's the plan? There is no plan. Oh, wait. Wait. We need a strategy. No. I'm going. You're not. What? I said, 'I'm going. You guys aren't.' What? Are you out of your mind? It's personal business. You don't owe that woman nothing. I didn't say I did. You want to kill yourself? Go ahead. Fine. Your call. Listen, I don't want to kill myself. You guys take care. Gotta do this. Hey, hey, hey. What? Don't lay this guilt crap on us. We don't deserve it. This is my choice. There's no guilt. There's no guilt. Take care. Yeah. Fucking his choice. Yeah. (STARTS ENGINE) I said I'm going alone. I'm going too. Come on, Yang. Get the hell out. Just drive. Don't lose your nerve. Don't talk to me, cockroach. (DRAMATIC MUSIC) So why are you doing this? Friends die together. Hey, give me the good luck ring. Come on. Don't make me hurt you, Yang. Come on. Speed better than luck. Whatever. It's difficult. What is? My life is difficult. I need more money. Why's that? I work harder than the rest. No, you don't. Yes, I do. Because they're taller, everything is harder for me. Why I get hurt ` they're always bigger... because I'm smaller. When I travel I need to go further... I know. Cos you're smaller, right? Yes. My life is harder than you think. I need more money. (CAR IDLES) I know. You told me. For your family, right? I don't have family. BARNEY: I know. Maybe one day I will. (TYRES SQUEAL) Down!

You were gonna kill him. I was just gonna scare him. Don't put that on me. You never liked him. (PANTS) Am I dying? Shot you a couple of inches above your heart. I'll take that as a yes. Gunner, who sent you? BARNEY: Who hired you? Who cares? Do yourself a favour. Don't go out a total asshole. Cooperate for once in your miserable life. Then bury me right. You got it. Who sent you? Who sent you? Is the girl still alive? Come closer. 1 You know, it's not easy being your friend. That's true. Man, we'll die with you. Just don't ask us to do it twice. I know the layout. I'll tell you about it on the way. What the hell happened to you? He's too sad to talk about it. CHRISTMAS: Let's fly. (DRAMATIC MUSIC) You know, the enemy's always been terrified of noise, especially shotguns. With this big boy spitting out 250 rounds a minute, you tell me who's tolerating that. Absolutely zero. Let me get this right. Gunner tries to kill you, you shoot him, and at death's door he gives you the whole layout? Something like that. I would've win. I know you 'would've win'. You know what? I trust you. I want you to meet my girlfriend... ..Omya Kaboom. You lost me there. When Omya's prime is struck she gets off a miniature warhead that arms itself, and when that happens, anything that gets in my lady's way becomes instant red sauce and jello. And if that doesn't work... ..her sister will. You should meet my doctor. Too late. (MEN CHATTER IN SPANISH) (MEN SHOUT IN SPANISH) (DRAMATIC MUSIC) It's 3:36. We have 20 minutes to take this place down. I'll take the cellar. We've got company. I got him. You guys take off. (MAN YELLS) Is there a reason you've taken the soldiers this man has trained and made them look like fools? GARZA: They look like warriors... warriors loyal to me. I thought the people of Vilena hired these mercenaries to kill me. But then I think maybe this is your plan because you cannot control me, and torturing Sandra works for you. You want to kill her to make me suffer. A man can never kill a child, but you can. Bring Sandra here. Bring her now or I will kill you. Go get her. (DRAMATIC MUSIC) (MAN GROANS, YELLS) (BLADE SLICES) (NECK SNAPS) (GRUNTS) (MAN GROANS) Ya! (THUMP!) (SCREAMS) (MAN SPEAKS SPANISH) (MAN WHISPERS IN SPANISH) (SANDRA SHOUTS IN SPANISH) (LAUGHS TAUNTINGLY) (SPEAKS SPANISH) (SANDRA SCREAMS) (SANDRA SCREAMS) Sandra. Sandra. (SHRIEKS HYSTERICALLY) Sandra. Hey, it's me. It's me. (BREATHES RAGGEDLY) It's me. It's me. It's OK. It's OK. Nobody's going to hurt you. You're all right. How are you here? I just am. Can you move? Yes. OK. You're OK. You ready? Let's go. Time's up. Where's Barney? What's the call? Can't find him in 10 minutes, we leave. No way. That's what he'd want. 10 minutes. Let's go. (SANDRA SCREAMS IN SPANISH) (BARNEY GROANS) Ya! (BARNEY YELLS) No! Stop him. It's not his fight. It's mine. Get her out of here. (YELLS ANGRILY) Seal the building. (SANDRA SCREAMS IN SPANISH) Stand him up. (BARNEY GRUNTS) You know, if you didn't have this Kevlar vest... Your insides are gonna be like fucking mush. Well, undo it, sir. You know, you're a lucky man. Am I? You're the lucky man. No, no. You're a lucky man. He told me to keep you conscious. Did he? (BARNEY PANTS HEAVILY) You're a real tough guy, aren't you? (GRUNTS) Are you a real tough guy? Look at me, you piece of trash. How many men you got? Just your mother. (BARNEY YELLS) This is your last time. You give me the right answer and I'll cut you a break. If you give me the wrong answer, you will die a damn slow death. Do you understand me? Do you understand me? Yep. Who sent you? (MUTTERS) Loosen up. Who sent you?! Your hairdresser! (GROANS) (SCREAMS) We gotta go! Come on! Shit! (EXTREMELY LOUD GUNFIRE) Remember this shit at Christmas! Damn that thing's loud! What happened to you? I got my ass kicked. Come on, get my rifle. Let's go! 1 What's this? Everything bad that has happened, you bring. Take your money! I only see death with you. Take it all and go! I'm not going anywhere. You are done here. You can't succeed without me. I am the leader! You're a puppet in a hat! Say your prayers! No! No! (SPEAKS SPANISH) Ready? Now! (GUNS COCK) Get back! (SIREN WAILS) MAN: Throw down your weapons. There's no way out. Shit's getting old. Your lucky ring stinks. I know. Let's backtrack. The building's rigged. It's the only way out. PAINE: Chopper's ready in five minutes. We're not leaving yet. Come here. What's he saying? He said we're dead, with an accent. We ain't dead. Blow the building. Not yet. We will kill this American disease! (SCREAMS) Blow the building! She's still in there! The money! Blow it! Blow it! CHRISTMAS: She's out! Blow the fucking building! (GRUNTS) (ALL SHOUT) I'm out! Let's go. Come on! BARNEY: Cut Munroe off! (SCREAMING) Argh! Come on! (SCREAMS) (SCREAMS AND SIZZLES) 1 Hey! It's too heavy. Give me it! What do you want me to do? Throw it as hard as you can. Argh! Blow the dump. Got it! (SANDRA PANTS) Munroe! Drop the weapons or I'll put a bullet through her eye! Don't test me. (SCREAMS) What are you doing?! No, no, no. Shut up or I'll kill you. (GROANS) The agency parasites hired you, didn't they? I'd have paid you twice as much to go fishing. You'd have to think I'm pretty freaking stupid to surrender to the Agency. Why would I do that? I created this. I made it ALL happen! And then they wanted me out. Why? Because I saw the big picture. Stop walking. Now, what about me and you? We're both the same. We're both mercenaries. We're both dead inside. So why the hell did you come after me? I didn't come after you, dipshit. I came for her! You OK? Yeah. Call it a tie. Yeah, I guess so. You're not as fast as you think. I'm beginning to sense that. (LAUGHS) The second account number's mine. It'll help get things going around here. No, I can't. You've done so much. Yeah, well, so have you. A gift for a gift. You take it. Will you come back? I promise I'll always be around. You take care, Sandra. You take care. Bye. What? Truthfully? Yeah. I never really thought she was your type. (BOTH LAUGH) MAN: All right! (CHEERING) All right, baby, all right. Come on, let's see what you got. Oh! Oh! BARNEY: There's my boy. Go south! Whoa! You lost, you lost. So you're back from the dead? How are you healing? Good, considering you could have killed me. I forgive you. OK. I would have won. Of course. Hey, Gunnar. Whatever doesn't kill you makes you stronger, brother. Therapy. The man's got a point. Ha, ha, ha! You know what? I'm gonna do you a favour, Tool. I once knew a man called Tool... I love poetry. CHRISTMAS: To me... was the epitome of cool. (CHUCKLES) CHRISTMAS: He was good with a knife. Bad with a wife. (ALL LAUGH) That hurts. But to think he could beat me... Dreaming... he'd defeat me. Cool Tool... you gotta be a fool. Oh, yeah. ALL: Whoa! (ROCK MUSIC) SONG: # Guess who just got back today? # Them wild-eyed boys that had been away. Haven't changed, had much to say. # But, man, I still think them cats are crazy. # They were asking if you were around, how you was, where you could be found. # Told them you make your living downtown, driving all the old men crazy. # The boys are back in town. # The boys are back in town. # I said the boys are back in town. # The boys are back in town. # The boys are back in town. # The boys are back in town. # The boys are back in town. # The boys are back.
