Prepare to Die (2024) Movie Script
When I was a young boy,
I lived on a small farm in Texas
with my mother and father.
It was a pretty happy childhood...
until my family had the misfortune
of crossing paths with Blaine Richtefield.
There's the little family.
What a beautiful day we're having, huh?
Yeah. It was.
Okay.
I'm not gonna waste any more of your time or mine.
So what's it gonna be?
Are you gonna accept that very generous offer I made?
Well, like I said before, the answer is no.
Well, that's unfortunate.
Now, get off my property.
Now, off my property.
- Take it easy. - Hold on, man.
Well, hey, Padilla.
You got a boy showing a lot of fire in his belly.
You all right, mijo?
Go inside.
Take Diego inside.
Stay here, please.
Your goons don't scare me, Richtefield.
I'll be damned if I just let you breeze in here
and turn my life's work
into another one of your factory farms.
Wow.
That's what I get for being nice.
- Shoot him. - Sir.
Frank, John.
No witnesses.
Oh, shut up.
It's okay. It's okay. It's okay.
Run to the stream, now.
I'll come back for you.
Where's the boy?
Keep looking.
He's in here somewhere.
Watch your step.
Oh, yeah. Because you're so good at stepping yourself.
I'm just saying. You fall over, I'm just gonna drop that guy.
Silas, the boy?
I got him.
Good, good, good.
Let's get the fuck outta here.
Richtefield needed our land
to get building rights for the entire area...
to build his factory beef farm.
My father wouldn't sell, so Richtefield killed him
and my mother.
He would've killed me too.
But I was saved by his driver, Silas.
He would send me to his home country of China
and I wouldn't find out why until I was older.
Are you okay?
I'm sorry.
I told you to wait by the stream.
You should not see this.
We must get you to the train station right away.
Once you reach Corpus Christi,
give these instructions to a taxi, okay?
- They'll take you to the ship. -
You'll be on the ship for a very long time.
It will take you to my family in China.
There, you will be safe.
My father will take good care of you.
My youngest daughter is there too.
Hopefully you can be friends.
And once I arrived in China,
I was taken in by Silas's father Bingwen
and Silas's daughter Xin Yi.
Bingwen raised me alongside Xin Yi
like I was part of his family
and then, trained me in self-defense.
One, two, three.
Good. Very good.
Now, sting it.
Don't let it move.
Focus. Right in the center.
That's it. That's it.
It should go straight back from where you punched.
Good.
Diego, I noticed you watching us earlier.
Are you curious about what we're doing?
Xin Yi is learning to defend herself.
I could teach you too if you'd like.
Actually, she could use a training partner.
But I must warn you, she is ferocious.
We should speak English only for our guest.
Otherwise, we'd be rude hosts.
Yes, Grandfather.
Well, we're out there every morning.
You are always welcome.
Shoot him.
Shut up.
Ah, Diego. Good morning.
I see you have your gloves on.
Let's give them a try on the bag.
Come on, Diego. It's fun.
Just punch it.
That's good, that's good.
Now, when we punch,
we don't punch just to make contact.
We punch with power, to go through it.
Yes? Move the bag.
I can't move that.
I'm too small.
Size doesn't matter.
Try again.
More focus. Power.
Use your body.
One more.
Good.
I'm tired of just punching and kicking this bag.
I wanna learn how to take on a real person and beat them up.
Hey, this training is not to beat somebody up.
It's for self-defense only,
to protect those who are unable
to protect themselves.
Defend yourself, defend family,
but no looking for trouble.
Okay?
Through the years, I grew stronger
and more skilled.
But every time I close my eyes,
I saw my father's death.
I heard my mother's screams
and I saw the delighted look
on Richtefield's face as he did it.
I wanted to return and get my revenge,
but Bingwen forbade it.
Why don't you just quit?
I didn't raise a son to hurt people.
Even if I could try and get out,
I don't think it would do any good.
Richtefield is too powerful and influential.
Then don't quit.
Just leave.
Come home, my son.
I'm afraid I already put you and Xin Yi
in enough danger by sending Diego there.
If he were hunting me down, he wouldn't stop.
I knew the time would come when I would go back
to Texas and avenge my family.
When I overheard that Richtefield
had only got more power hungry
and bloodthirsty,
I knew that time was now.
Diego. Diego.
Easy. Easy. Easy. Easy. Easy.
I got you. I got you.
I got you. I got you.
Come on. Breathe.
It's okay.
Breathe with me. Breathe.
Diego.
Breathe with me.
I couldn't save them, Bingwen.
Diego.
If I knew I was putting you all in danger,
I never would've stayed here.
You overheard my conversation with Silas.
Three years before Silas found you,
his eldest daughter Catherine was kidnapped.
It devastated him.
Silas saw his daughter in you.
He could not protect his little girl.
So he wanted to take care of you for her.
Do you understand?
When I heard you and Silas talking,
you mentioned Richtefield.
He said something about him
committing atrocities for years.
So my family wasn't the only one.
Yes.
Blaine Richtefield.
Silas said he tears everything down.
And on that land, he builds factory farms.
The money generated
funds his criminal empire.
I need to go back to fix things.
Get our land back and to stop him.
No. Now is not the time.
You said I could go back when it was safe or I was ready.
Aren't I ready?
You're acting out of anger and revenge.
It's clouding your mind.
You will go back
and you will get what is rightfully yours.
But you have to do it the right way.
Otherwise, your past will never stop haunting you.
It was hard for me
not having my father here for most of my life.
My mother died when I was so little,
I barely remember her.
But grandfather
taught me,
taught us so much.
He loves you like his own, Diego.
I hope you know that.
I will forever be grateful to Bingwen and to you.
I don't know what would've happened to me
without both of you.
You'd probably still be a little scaredy-cat.
Probably.
So against Bingwen's wishes,
I took all the money I saved from working,
snuck out at night,
and set sail back to America.
Determined to put an end
to Richtefield's reign of terror.
- Oh, shit. -
Go, go, go.
Don't get any closer. I'mma drop it.
Just give me my things, I'll let you go.
My mother's necklace is in there.
Please.
No!
Where's my mother's necklace?
There he is.
Hmm, what do we have here?
What do you think? Do you like it?
Sure. It'll work.
You know, tomorrow, we got that big shindig.
And all those guys, they like to play,
so we need all the girls we can get.
All right. I'll get 'em cleaned up.
Come on, ladies. Let's go get cleaned.
Chop chop.
I like them like that. Just like that.
- By the way. - Hmm?
How's that real estate situation playing out?
Well, we got seven left, Ryan.
Hopefully it'd be down to four by tomorrow.
You know, me and the boys are gonna make
an unscheduled open house stop.
Looks like, um, Sheriff Hansen is here to see you.
Really?
Yeah, and he's been yapping a little bit about,
um, his friend in FBI.
- Oh. - Saying it's getting harder
for him to keep things quiet.
You know, that type of shit.
Okay.
Send him in.
Yes, boss.
Hey, buddy.
Ah. Sheriff Hansen.
- Hey. - How's it hangin'?
Pretty good last time I checked.
I'm glad.
Anyway, you know, I got this terrible debt on my head.
Daughter wanna buy a taco truck.
My daughter's sweet 16 party,
she wanted that goddamn thing and...
...she just kept bugging me
about it and making me crazy,
and little did I know,
I was gonna inherit this giant debt,
and, I mean, who knew?
I mean, I'm telling ya.
Having to pay for that truck
is like having a case of the clap,
just won't go away.
Kids.
Yeah, yeah, I mean, go figure.
- I... - Yeah.
Anyway, uh, Blaine,
I guess it wouldn't be so bad
if I just had a little extra income
coming from somewhere, you know what I'm saying?
Oh, yeah, I know.
Look, you guys got your enterprise, Blaine.
You're doing pretty good as far as I know,
- and I know a lot. - Uh-hmm.
But, um, keep everything off the record,
like you asked me, so--
We pay you handsomely for it.
Yeah, to a certain extent, yeah.
- But? - But?
It's not enough.
Well, is it ever enough, Blaine?
- I mean... - Is it?
Isn't it ever for anybody, I mean?
Well, you know, I did mention a way for you
to get rich quick, didn't I?
I mean, your daughter is, like, what?
She's almost 18 now.
Oh, you're gonna go there, huh?
It's there.
You got right on the edge with me, pal.
You ever mention my daughter again,
you're gonna be very sorry.
- Uh-hmm. - So I'm gonna--
I'm gonna go.
- Okay. - Yeah.
Oh, and, uh, kindly refer to me as Mr. Richtefield.
Only my mama calls me Blaine
and she's dead.
Ah, jeez.
Sorry to hear that.
Sorry to--
Mr. Richtefield.
Yeah.
Have you ever played this game before?
Yeah. - WILLIAM: Yeah.
You played this one.
So I won't feel bad taking your money.
Tequila, por favor.
I'm starting to think there's nobody in all of Mexico
that can beat me at pool.
Get my money ready.
Yeah.
Boom!
I'm champion once again!
Give me that money -.
Yeah. Yeah.
Hey, don't give it all to me.
Keep some for your baby girl diapers.
How 'bout you, boy?
You want a turn?
I don't play.
Tell you what, Bartender, his round's on me.
- Why? - See, I get a few more drinks
in you, maybe you wanna play.
And I'll beat you, too.
Who else wants his ass whooped?
Any cousin - to some sister?
Rack these balls up.
You don't look like you want a game of pool or a cold beer.
How'd you find me?
The truck, moron.
Plus, you don't exactly, uh, blend in.
Just let me grab my things.
- Excuse me. - Hello.
You don't want this.
You don't want this. Okay.
Now, we got a party.
Come on.
Come on. Let's go!
Remember, we need him alive.
Yeah, John, I know!
You'll end up just like the rest of them.
God!
Yeah. Come on.
Let's go.
Come on, bitches!
Come on!
Get off me!
Hey, I fixed your nose.
You look better now.
Stop!
Richtefield said alive.
I don't give a shit!
He broke my damn nose, man!
I don't know who the hell you are,
but you better hit the road unless you wanna get hurt, too.
I lied. You still ugly as shit.
You -.
God!
Woo!
Oh, shit.
You work for Richtefield, huh?
Yeah, kill him!
Where is he?
You're gonna take me to him.
Hey, cops man. We gotta go.
- We gotta go. - Yeah, it's the cops.
They own the cops!
Let's go! Now!
With me, right here.
You really bailed my ass out back there, man.
What are you doing in a bar with no money?
I just arrived here from China.
My things were stolen.
China?
Is that where you learned all that ninja shit?
Ninjas are Japanese.
- Thank you for the ride. - Hey, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Hey, where are you going, man? Look, hey.
Look, the border's hours away still, all right?
Just take a break.
Have a drink with me.
- Hey, man, what are you doing? - Is that why Richtefield
wants you alive?
- Because you work for him? - Hey, whoa, man.
I used to work for him, all right?
Not until my sister got killed.
Go on.
She OD'd on the shit I was smuggling
into the country.
I might as well have shot that poison
right into her arm myself.
I'm sorry about your sister.
So I quit.
Then and there.
And Richtefield didn't like that?
He said I knew too much.
I knew his name, where all his operations located.
Richtefield started sending guys after me.
I started moving around more.
But Richtefield, man,
he never stops.
He just keeps sending more and more guys.
Richtefield is responsible for the death of my family, too.
He killed them right in front of me.
Shit.
How'd you escape?
Richtefield isn't known for leaving loose ends.
Come on, man.
Talk to me.
What's your plan at the border?
I'll figure it out.
I'll walk across if I have to.
You know what?
Let me take you across the border.
Why would you do that for me?
Why not? I've done it before.
You should help me take down Richtefield.
I'm not crazy now.
Why would I run this long,
just to deliver myself to his doorstep?
So you can stop running.
Take a stand, William.
Fight back.
I don't know, man. I--
So you can stop looking over your shoulder
everywhere you go.
Maybe you can get him back
for what happened to your sister.
You know what, man?
Why not?
I'm in.
Thank you.
And I'll have your back too.
You already have, man.
Are you kidding me?
I'd be dead if it wasn't for you.
Yeah.
That son of a bitch is gonna get what he's got coming to him.
Silas, we still have men out looking.
No one stays missing as long as you throw enough money
and resources at finding 'em.
Okay?
Thank you, Mr. Richtefield.
Sure. Ryan.
Please tell me you were successful.
Very.
Hmm.
And the, uh, land owners, where are they?
Well done.
Although I brought one back with me.
Hey, bring it in.
Hey, hey, hey. Take it easy. Just--
Excuse me. Silas,
do you have a problem?
No, sir.
Men, what--what the hell happened to you two?
Did William do that to you?
Yes, sir.
We had him and some karate kid came out and bum-rushed us.
Do I have to get 'em myself?
No, sir.
Who are you?
This wise young lady decides
she wants to come work for you.
Under my supervision, of course.
Oh.
All right.
Looks like she fits right in.
Dude, this is why I'm telling you
to tape the hands behind their back.
Yeah, thanks.
Jesus Christ.
She's feisty.
Yeah, I can see that.
Well, if she's anxious to work,
just put her to work.
Give her to a client right now.
I think I should take a turn first,
you know, just to, you know, get her ready.
Guests first, Ryan.
They pay more when they're fresh.
Yes, sir.
All right.
Take her to holding.
Actually, hold on.
Silas, you take her.
Follow 'em.
Make sure they go right there.
Oh, yeah, James Swiftwater is waiting to see you.
Okay. Send him in.
Yes, sir.
You wanted to see me?
James, have a seat.
I gotta talk to you about your patrols.
I've been watching over your land
- just as instructed. - Yeah.
Well, people are still sneaking onto my land,
snooping around.
It's thousands of acres.
Look... James,
you have to be more vigilant, okay?
You need to start using
those fancy guns of yours, understand?
I got cops on a payroll.
I'm wasting fucking money.
Fuck.
You have anything to declare?
Just what a fine job you've been doing.
Smart-ass, huh?
What's behind the seat?
Just some crap my old lady
been nagging me to clean out.
You know how it is.
Do I need to take a look?
I mean, if you want to, be my guest.
Oh, just pardon the smell.
I'll survive.
On your ass ol' Park Ranger.
Okay. You're good.
Have a nice day.
Tell Mr. Richtefield hi.
So, Richtefield killed your parents.
Was it drug related?
He was after our land.
My father didn't wanna sell.
So, his men shot him...
and my mother.
Where were you?
I watched them...
shoot my father.
And then I listened to my mother scream...
and scream until...
screaming stopped.
And I just ran away.
You were just a kid, Diego. What else could you do?
Something.
Anything.
Yeah.
You did the right thing.
They would've just killed you too.
Yeah, maybe.
Hey.
Do you know her?
No, I do not.
The hell is she doin'?
Hey, get the hell away from my truck.
Busted.
I'll just be on my way.
What? Oh, hell no. It's not that easy.
You tried to steal my truck.
Yeah. Tried and failed.
Now I'm on my way. Enjoy your truck.
No. Hold on now.
Enjoy your truck.
Oh, that is it!
I don't care how cute you are. Get back here!
Take one more step! I dare you.
Oh, what?
You gonna poke me with your little switchblade?
All right. Enough!
Do it. One more step.
Goddamn!
Ha! You missed.
I promise you, I don't miss.
That was a warning shot.
You know what? That's it. I'mma punch you in the face.
All right. Stop! Both of you!
Get off of me!
What is your problem?
Why you trying to steal my crappy truck?
It says "Richtefield" on it, all right?
I hate the guy.
He is not our boss.
And that's not his truck.
Why is his name on it?
Because it used to be his truck
and he used to be my boss.
Why would you wanna steal it?
Opens a lot of doors.
Plus you can say he used to be my boss too.
Ah, fuck.
I told you it was an accident.
I thought you said you never miss.
Hand me the gauze.
Richtefield murdered my family
and William's sister.
We're here to find him and to take him down.
But you worked for him.
What did you do?
Saying "worked" is a bit generous.
He kidnapped me.
Was it for a ransom or something like that?
Not at all.
He just wanted to put me to work in his brothel.
But you managed to get out.
The first guy they put me in the room with,
I choked him with a neck tie and crawled out the window.
This girl helped me, but she got caught.
And what happened to her?
I'm not sure.
I've been trying to find her.
The last couple of years,
I've been able to sneak back in to the compound,
got a few girls out into a safe house I found
but, just never been able
to find the girl that helped me escape.
Last time I went,
my car got shut up beyond repair.
I'm just kinda stuck without wheels
and that's why I wanted your truck.
I think you should come with us.
Uh, Diego, a quick word?
Hey, are you crazy? She's nuts.
In case you forgot, she just stuck me with a knife.
She could've killed you if she wanted to.
Look, she hates Richtefield as much as we do.
She's familiar with his compound and she can help us get in.
Look, do you even know what you're gonna do
once you get in there?
Look, I get it.
But what's your plan? What are you gonna do,
just march in there and ask politely?
I'm gonna do whatever it takes.
And that includes teaming up with
and trusting complete strangers.
Oh, okay. Strangers like me?
Yeah, I get it.
Know this, if she puts another knife in me,
I'm gonna break her neck.
Hmm?
Okay. Yeah, fine.
Yeah. She can come with.
We talked it over
and we'd like your help
if you wanna come.
Can I ask for a slight change of plans though?
I can get you to Richtefield's compound,
but I can't free all the girls by myself.
There's too many guards.
You help me free the girls
and I get you Richtefield.
It's a deal.
I won't mess with you, if you don't mess with me.
All right. Let's hit the road.
Hey. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Ain't we forgetting something?
The tire ain't gonna change itself.
I'mma get a drink.
Dude, you gotta, like, warn me next time.
Let me step back before you blow their brains out.
Remember that one time in El Paso?
- Guys, get in. Come on. - Oh, sorry about that, sir.
Sir, I know we've gone down this road before,
but I really don't think
you should go on this job so much.
Let me and men take care of things.
What? Hell, no.
I'll never stop doing this.
I like being in the action.
I like getting my hands dirty,
especially when we're this close.
How close are we, sir? - RICHTEFIELD: Mm.
Well, the build permits were all signed this morning.
As soon as we get that Sheriff in that Polk County position,
we can grab the last two properties,
dam up that fucking stream,
and start building our complex.
Is replacing Sheriff Hansen really necessary?
Absolutely!
That guy's a money-grubbing motherfucker.
I'm sick of that guy.
Silas, what's going on?
Aren't you excited?
Oh, yeah.
I'm very excited, sir.
Good.
We worked so hard for all this.
Come on.
Guys, you want short ribs?
Hell yeah, sir. - Let's go.
Come on, Silas.
It's beautiful.
If Richtefield gets his way,
all this will be factory farms soon.
Hey.
We should build a fire.
Set up camp for the night.
Blanca, do you know anything about the building that he's in?
Any way for us to get inside?
I mean, it's not just one building but a few of them.
Carlos will be on one side,
Richtefield on the other...
of course protected by guards.
Do you know anything about this party
that he's throwing?
Just a bunch of rich assholes
getting hammered and sexually assaulting girls.
I feel sick just thinking about that place,
things that Fruitwood used to do to those girls.
I'm sorry, I didn't mean to-
You need know why this is important to me.
The girls told me what Fruitwood did to them.
I feel so fucking guilty that I'm out here
and they're still there.
Well, we're gonna stick together till we get all of them out.
I promise.
You're with us now.
Can we talk about something else now?
And just a few miles down that way
is the best barbecue joint in all of Texas.
Oh, yeah?
Sweet Lou's Barbecue.
I can almost taste it.
My parents used to take me there every Sunday after church.
Maybe after all this is over,
I can take you there sometime.
Uh, well, I'mma need you all to stop
talking about barbecue.
You're making me hungry.
Shit.
I'll warn you once.
Get off of this property
and do not return.
I think you got it backwards, hoss.
Why don't you turn your ass around
and get outta here before you get hurt?
It's time to go.
Don't make me shoot you.
- Got any rope? - I do.
So? What are we gonna do with him?
I say kill him.
He would've done the same to us.
We're not gonna kill him.
Maybe he has information.
Nah. He ain't gonna talk.
Look at him all stoic and shit.
You work for Richtefield.
Why should we let you go?
I'm just doing my job.
It's your job going around pointing guns at people?
It's my job to make sure
nobody comes snooping around Richtefield's land.
- I don't wanna hurt anyone. - Could've fooled me.
Look, I don't even like what I do.
He just has control over me.
He's threatened me,
my family,
my entire community.
I don't wanna fight.
Blanca, untie him.
What? Are you crazy? Blanca, no.
We are not gonna set him free.
He wanted to kill us?
Richtefield threatened you too, didn't he?
You of all people should be sympathetic to that.
Yeah, and I feel his pain.
But I still want him tied up.
He will never trust us if he's tied up like a prisoner.
Look, there's three of us, we have his guns.
What can he do?
All right. You know what? Fine.
If something go wrong, it's on you.
We just wanna talk, then you can go.
Nobody has to die tonight.
I'm Diego.
This is Blanca.
That's William.
James Swiftwater.
You said that Richtefield threatened you?
He told me if I quit that I would regret it.
My family would regret it.
Doesn't get any easier once you leave either.
If I had any family left, he'd be after them too.
Wait.
I think I recognize you.
You're William Freeman.
Yeah, yeah. Ain't no forgetting this beautiful face.
The drug runner.
There's a large bounty out for you.
Hey now, calm down, man. That's me, all right?
But I ain't a saint- - JAMES: You know what?
You brought that poison
into my community.
I had to watch as my brother
was shot in the spine
by one of Richtefield's drug runners.
I had to watch them but I don't have to watch now!
I made a- -
Stop it!
Cut it out!
I quit!
Damn!
Why is that so hard for you to understand?
That shit hit too close to home and I quit!
Now I'm trying to make damn amends!
Make amends?
You think amends can make up
for the lives that you've ruined?
- Can you bring back the dead? - No!
If I could, then I'd have my big sister back!
James, William is a good man.
He just made some mistakes like we all do.
But he's out here risking his life
because he wants to stop Richtefield too,
and he's helping me.
It's not that simple.
Look, I just wanna get my land back,
free those girls.
You steal from him.
You free those girls.
But he won't stop
until he hunts you down and kills you.
He can't hunt us down from prison.
Even if you lock him up,
he won't stop...
until you're dead.
James, help us.
Please.
I cannot take that risk.
For my family's sake.
If we stop him, your family will be safe.
The answer's no.
I'm sorry.
I won't tell them about the three of you.
I wish you luck.
Blanca, give him his guns.
I apologize for attacking you.
My emotions got the best of me.
Don't even worry about it, man.
You're just lucky they stopped me.
Jail and prison isn't gonna be enough for this guy.
We're gonna have to take down Richtefield...permanently.
But how are we even gonna get close to him?
I mean, I know where the place is
but, I haven't even seen, like,
80% of the compound.
I think I know someone who can help out with that.
A 49-year-old unidentified man
went berserk last night,
opening fire with a 12-gauge shotgun
in a crowded downtown restaurant.
14 people are dead, including three children,
four others suffered serious injuries.
Police have a suspect in custody but are not-
Can I help you?
Silas, it's me.
I don't know you.
You do.
You saved my life as a kid.
Diego?
Oh, my God.
Who are they?
This is Blanca and William.
They've been helping me.
They need to stay outside.
Hurry, come in.
Hurry.
Jesus Christ.
I'm glad to see you, Diego.
Oh, God.
Thank God you're safe.
Look at you.
But you should not be here.
Bingwen told me you disappeared.
But what are you doing at my house?
I would be executed if they find out you are here.
I am so sorry, Silas.
I never meant to put you in any danger.
Too late for that.
I'm here to take back what is rightfully mine
and to make sure Richtefield never does this to anyone else.
None of this is a good idea, okay?
I still see them, Silas.
My parents.
Every time I close my eyes.
You can stay.
But only for a moment.
Is it all right if my friends join in?
I overheard some of your conversations
with Bingwen.
I wish you hadn't.
I would never want you to hear these things.
I should not have even contacted my father at all.
It's why I left.
Hearing the fear in your voice.
Richtefield needs to be stopped.
It's not realistic.
He's too powerful.
That's why we were hoping you would help us.
Absolutely not.
- Don't you wanna hear our plan? - I don't.
He's gone mad with the power.
He's above the law.
Then why do you keep working for him?
That's exactly why!
Don't you get it?
Leaving would be much too dangerous.
Not just for me, but for Bingwen and Xin Yi.
I've seen what he does to "deserters",
as they call them.
It's not pretty.
I'm sorry, Diego.
I just can't be involved.
We're doing this tonight.
Blanca can get us to the compound.
But we need your help to get us inside.
If you won't help us,
we'll need to figure out a new course of action, fast.
I didn't save your life
so you could throw it away for revenge.
Revenge.
My father would not condone you looking for revenge, Diego.
This is not revenge.
This is defending the people who need it the most.
And if you can't see that, then-
I don't like your tone.
You came to my house, insult me,
put me in grave danger.
Okay, it's time for you and your friend to go.
Who's this?
Put that down and leave.
But I know her.
That's impossible.
She's been missing for 13 years.
I do. I know her.
I mean, she's way younger in this picture
but I'd recognize her anywhere.
It's Catherine.
How did you-where is she?
Tell me!
When I was younger,
I got kidnapped by Richtefield and his men.
No.
Forced in...
into his sex ring.
No.
No.
There were a lot of girls there
but, Catherine was the first one I met.
She showed me how to keep my composure no matter what.
She's the only reason why I thought escape
was even possible.
Is she, um, is she still there?
I don't know.
She was when I escaped.
I went back several times to find her, but I never could.
She's right under my nose this whole time.
I am so, so sorry, Silas.
I asked him.
When she went missing, I asked him
if he knew anything about it
and he promised me he knew nothing.
So I stayed and worked
for the monster for years
because he told me he couldn't help me find her.
But he had her this whole time.
You didn't know.
You couldn't know.
I always suspected.
I just didn't-I just didn't have the courage to get-
to get in his way because...
if I wasn't positive,
so I stayed close
and then hoping that one day
find some definite proof.
Silas...
join us.
Help us get inside.
If she's still there, we will get her out.
And you can have your daughter back home safely tonight.
I will help,
as long as we can get my daughter
and all the girls out of there.
We will.
I know we can do it.
And we'll kill Blaine Richtefield.
We will.
Ah. - Ni hao, my friend.
Say, we got a special package for a Mr. Bingwen.
Wouldn't happen to be you, would it?
I'm sorry. You have the wrong house.
You'll get that, Sheriff.
Bring him in here.
I want this done before the party starts.
Hey Blaine,
looks like you're having a big party.
I don't remember getting an invite.
Hmm. 'Cause I didn't send one.
Oh, gee, well, that answers that question though.
- Uh-hmm. - Well, Blaine,
I heard you're taking good care of, uh, Sheriff Crowley
over there in Randolph County,
and I heard you gave him a goddamn Cadillac.
Is that true? -
And so you want a Cadillac?
Well, I wouldn't say no.
I just don't understand why we just keep wigglin'
back and forth and...
why don't you just quit duckin' me?
Well, Sheriff, I'm not ducking you
and I don't appreciate your tone.
I've always taken care of you.
And this is the way you treat me?
Well no, not at all.
What about your friend in the FBI?
Oh, come on. Blaine, come on.
You're smarter than that. Come on. Gee.
I know where you heard that shit, from Fruitwood.
Why did he tell you that, man? What a shit-stirrer.
Come on, that didn't mean nothin'.
FBI, I got that shit taken care of, you know what-
You know, people go missing
in this town all the time
- and nobody seems to care. - Yeah.
Your daughter's been safe up to this point.
I'd like you to make sure we keep it that way...
and you know what I'm talking about.
And now who's threatening?
I know you're talking about my daughter, aren't you?
Come on, get him out.
You want fruitcake?
Goodnight.
You wanna kill a policeman, do you?
Get your goddamn hands off me.
And tell your monkeys to get back.
You be careful there, Blaine.
Too bad you can't make the party,
- Sheriff. -
I'm glad I missed it.
Get on outta here.
Hey, Ryan.
Hey, boss.
So are you and the girls ready to entertain our guests tonight?
Yup. You know it.
All right.
Any word from China?
They should arrive within the hour.
Good. Good.
Trust is such an important thing...
and I just don't trust Silas anymore,
but I can trust you, right, Ryan?
Sure you can, boss.
Good.
- Salut. - Salut.
Diego, the deed to your family's land
will be a small safe in Richtefield's office.
Thank you, Silas.
All right. We're counting on you, man.
All right.
William, any luck with your contacts?
He said he'll drive my truck.
Hopefully it's big enough to fit all the girls.
How close can he get?
He said the closest would be about a half mile
from the fence.
That'll have to do.
Let's go.
Are you okay down there?
I ain't gonna lie.
It's a little tight.
But I'll make it work.
Diego, are you two okay back there too?
Yeah, we're good.
Is this really going to work?
It has to.
But I'm glad you came.
As crazy as this is, I'm glad too.
Okay, guys.
We got lucky, because of the party,
most of the guards must be inside.
Okay.
Well, first things first.
We get the girls out.
Where are they being held?
There's a holding wing over there.
All right.
Do you know how many guards there will be?
Usually just a couple right on the inside,
then more spread throughout.
The longer we can go without alerting
the rest of the compound, the better.
So, stay quiet until we need to make some noise.
- Okay. - Okay.
Let's go get them.
Lead the way.
I'll take out the first two.
Be my guest.
Three kings with a queen lucky.
You really are as dumb as you look.
I got a PhD in physics.
I didn't know that.
What the hell?
The girls are on a large room, like a prison holding cell.
Let's go.
Just remember, stay quiet.
That's where the girls are.
Nope. No, no, no,
that's gonna alert the others.
I can probably take him.
He's just a little far.
He's not standing still.
I got your back either way.
Go for it.
You remember that blonde?
She could suck-start a Harley, man.
Oh, what the...?
Girls, girls,
we're here to get you out, okay?
Please help me. - It's gonna be all right.
- We're gonna get you out. - Let's go.
Come on. Come on. - SILAS: Guys.
Go. Follow them, follow them. Go, go.
Follow me. - It's okay.
Where's Fruitwood?
Tell me.
Where is Fruitwood?
He's on the top floor.
Come on, we gotta go. We gotta go.
Let's go. Come on.
I'll meet you out by the fence.
Blanca, we have the girls already.
Let's get them out of here and then go find Richtefield.
There's no way I'm leaving this place
without taking out Fruitwood.
Just keep those girls safe.
Blanca, it's not part of the plan.
Diego, I have to.
You understand that.
Then I'm coming with you.
I can handle Fruitwood,
but these girls need all the help they can get.
Why are you--fuck.
No.
Yeah, I'm about to head that way now.
How many girls do you want me to bring with me?
Richtefield says all of them.
Okay. Copy that.
Shit.
No.
You?
I should have figured.
I heard you've been creeping around,
stealing our girls.
It's bitches like you that give hoes a bad name.
I've been dreaming about this.
Her name's Catherine.
She's my daughter.
Has anyone seen my little girl?
Do you know her?
Her name's Catherine.
- I knew her. - You know her?
We should hurry.
Everyone in the compound probably heard that gunfire.
Did you get Fruitwood?
Yeah.
Next time, you let us help you.
You're not alone anymore.
Got it!
All right. All right, girls.
One at a time. Go directly west, that way.
- Let's go. Let's go. - There you go. Come on.
He's about a half mile out.
Where did she go?
Where did she go? Did she escape?
I'm sorry.
The night Blanca escaped, Catherine was with her,
but got caught.
What?
They killed her.
I'm sorry.
No! No, no.
No.
I'm sorry.
They killed her.
I'm gonna kill them all.
You're gonna get your chance, Silas.
I promise.
Blanca.
Where's Blanca?
Blanca, Blanca.
What are you doing?
I'm going with them.
I have to make sure they get to the safe house.
We're supposed to stick together till the end.
If I don't go with them, they'll get tracked down
and brought back or even worse.
Bye, Diego.
D. Hey, D.
Hey. Hey, she's gone, man.
At least she's safe. Hey, hey, hey.
We got to focus up.
You're right. She's safe.
Let's go get this son of a bitch.
All right. Drop your guns.
Now, please.
What the hell are you waiting for?
Go get the girls and bring them back!
We should have killed that son of a bitch.
Yup.
Mr. Richtefield, sir.
We got 'em.
Yeah. I'll be right down.
Don't kill anybody yet.
They've got some suffering coming.
Smile pretty.
Oh, wait, you can't.
It's fucking done.
Hey, Silas,
take a look at this family photo I've got.
Only one missing is your daughter,
Catherine, right?
Son of a bitch.
Cowards.
What'd you say?
He said you're all a bunch of cowards!
William...
my, oh, my.
Uh-hmm.
You've had this coming for a while.
Don't think I forgot about you, pretty boy.
Goddamn landscaping company, you fucking scammers.
Frank, I hate coming out here to this ratchet rock garden,
- okay? - Yes, sir.
We haven't done any landscaping out here.
It's depressing.
But I wanted to come and see our party crashers.
Look at you sorry ass bunch.
You're the karate kid, huh?
Will, do you fucking know how hard you are to find?
I heard you liked chasing me.
Oh, yeah, I love chasing you.
Fucking, Silas, you traitor.
You can have me, but let my family go.
Fuck you.
James, you're supposed to be patrolling the south side.
Oh, no.
Are you in trouble, you stupid son of a bitch?
Uh-uh.
Oh...
history repeats itself.
Uh-uh. Uh-uh. Uh-uh.
Nice try.
Yeah.
Die, bitch.
Whoa!
You look surprised.
I decided it was time to make amends.
Well, I saw Richtefield bolted for the main building again.
Follow me. There's a back entrance.
Come on.
Let's grab their guns.
Go, go.
Richtefield's office is upstairs.
Oh, fuck.
I'm out.
I got two left.
We're boned.
What do we do now, Diego?
James, make those last two count.
I will.
Ready?
Let's go!
You're back.
Let's not make a big deal out of it.
I just wanted to make sure the girls were okay.
William's guy is taking them to the safe house now.
I thought you were gone for good.
You guys helped me, I'm gonna help you.
Stick together till the end, right?
You dropped this.
Besides, you still owe me a trip
to the best barbecue place in Texas.
There's no way I'm missing that.
You serious?
Come on, man, break it up. We got work to do.
Get that off you, player.
You killed Frank.
I'm gonna make you pay.
I got shot.
Did you get hit?
Just grazed. I'm okay though.
Do you guys think you can cover me
while I make a break for those stairs?
While we make a break for those stairs.
Yes. We got you.
We're gonna go for it.
- Ready? - All right.
Go.
That's his office.
Let's end him.
Okay.
Come on.
Xin Yi! Father!
Silas, look what you made me do.
Are you guys okay?
You know each other?
How convenient.
Now, drop the weapons.
Now!
Kick them to the side.
Thanks.
Ran out of ammo?
Shitting me.
Come on.
Damn, boy, I thought you were good.
Huh.
You're a tough son of a bitch though.
What's your stake in this?
I'm here to avenge my family and take back what is mine.
You're gonna have to be a little more specific than that.
My father was Angel Padilla.
My mother was Alma Padilla.
You murdered them.
Oh, so...
you're that feisty little kid.
Shit.
I knew that Silas wouldn't take care of you.
Looks like I'm gonna have to do it myself.
Well, two karate kids.
Diego.
Diego. I got you.
I got you.
Let's take the scum to the police.
I own the police.
You don't own all of them.
We can take you to another city,
to a different state if we have to.
You're going to jail.
And we'll return everything you've stolen.
You're done.
Fuck!
You ain't got the guts.
Stay with us!
Somebody call an ambulance!
Okay.
Diego.
I'm here.
I'm here, Silas.
You are--
We're all hurt, Silas,
just hang on a little while longer.
Just hang on.
I made so many mistakes
but I thought it was to keep all of you safe.
My son, I will always love you no matter what.
I'm proud of what you did today.
Okay.
Silas.
What is it?
No.
Silas, Silas.
Hang on.
Silas, Silas.
Wow.
Well, hmm, what a fucking mess.
Are you here to arrest us?
Because if so, you just take me.
I'm solely responsible for this.
Hell no.
Not a chance.
No way. We're with him.
Anybody have any reason for me to make an arrest?
Looks to me like you're barely getting out of here
with your lives.
All things said and done.
Get out of here.
All of you get the hell out of here.
I got that covered. Don't worry.
My word to God, I'll take care of that body
and then make sure you get it.
Promise.
Get fucked in hell, you piece of shit.
Well, well, well.
Guess you finally got
what the fuck was coming to you, didn't you?
Blaine.
Bingwen, I am sorry that I left you and Xin Yi.
I never meant for you to get involved in this.
It was something you had to do.
And you stopped Richtefield from ever hurting anyone else.
Not fast enough.
I am so sorry about Silas.
The measure of a man is not from his individual actions,
but the end result of all those actions combined.
He saved you as a child and then you saved all of us.
That is the man I raised.
So my guy says the girls
are all secure at the safe house.
We did it.
We stopped Richtefield.
How can I ever thank you all?
How can we thank you?
You just gave me my freedom.
What now?
Well, don't have to look over my shoulder anymore.
I just get a,
I don't know, a job at a burger joint or something.
Stop running, just live a regular life.
And I'm gonna help those girls
get used to their new lives being free.
But first...
very excited to try this barbecue place
I've been hearing about.
It is the best in Texas.
So I've heard.
Well, maybe I can take you there tonight.
You know, now that I think about it,
I might just keep on making amends.
We did good.
But there are still a lot of men out there
like Richtefield scattered all across the state.
Across the country.
Exactly.
So, I don't know,
maybe instead of a burger joint,
I keep helping people that need help.
I'll join you.
Me, too.
I'm in.
We've gone this far.
I have to get Xin Yi and myself back home to China.
I might wanna stay here for a while.
Maybe we can help out.
Uh, we'll talk about it.
Things are starting to get exciting.
Really are.
You got Diego, well, mine, man.
What can I say? I know my barbecue here.
Well, then that sounds good.
Now, stop -
Stop holding.
I lived on a small farm in Texas
with my mother and father.
It was a pretty happy childhood...
until my family had the misfortune
of crossing paths with Blaine Richtefield.
There's the little family.
What a beautiful day we're having, huh?
Yeah. It was.
Okay.
I'm not gonna waste any more of your time or mine.
So what's it gonna be?
Are you gonna accept that very generous offer I made?
Well, like I said before, the answer is no.
Well, that's unfortunate.
Now, get off my property.
Now, off my property.
- Take it easy. - Hold on, man.
Well, hey, Padilla.
You got a boy showing a lot of fire in his belly.
You all right, mijo?
Go inside.
Take Diego inside.
Stay here, please.
Your goons don't scare me, Richtefield.
I'll be damned if I just let you breeze in here
and turn my life's work
into another one of your factory farms.
Wow.
That's what I get for being nice.
- Shoot him. - Sir.
Frank, John.
No witnesses.
Oh, shut up.
It's okay. It's okay. It's okay.
Run to the stream, now.
I'll come back for you.
Where's the boy?
Keep looking.
He's in here somewhere.
Watch your step.
Oh, yeah. Because you're so good at stepping yourself.
I'm just saying. You fall over, I'm just gonna drop that guy.
Silas, the boy?
I got him.
Good, good, good.
Let's get the fuck outta here.
Richtefield needed our land
to get building rights for the entire area...
to build his factory beef farm.
My father wouldn't sell, so Richtefield killed him
and my mother.
He would've killed me too.
But I was saved by his driver, Silas.
He would send me to his home country of China
and I wouldn't find out why until I was older.
Are you okay?
I'm sorry.
I told you to wait by the stream.
You should not see this.
We must get you to the train station right away.
Once you reach Corpus Christi,
give these instructions to a taxi, okay?
- They'll take you to the ship. -
You'll be on the ship for a very long time.
It will take you to my family in China.
There, you will be safe.
My father will take good care of you.
My youngest daughter is there too.
Hopefully you can be friends.
And once I arrived in China,
I was taken in by Silas's father Bingwen
and Silas's daughter Xin Yi.
Bingwen raised me alongside Xin Yi
like I was part of his family
and then, trained me in self-defense.
One, two, three.
Good. Very good.
Now, sting it.
Don't let it move.
Focus. Right in the center.
That's it. That's it.
It should go straight back from where you punched.
Good.
Diego, I noticed you watching us earlier.
Are you curious about what we're doing?
Xin Yi is learning to defend herself.
I could teach you too if you'd like.
Actually, she could use a training partner.
But I must warn you, she is ferocious.
We should speak English only for our guest.
Otherwise, we'd be rude hosts.
Yes, Grandfather.
Well, we're out there every morning.
You are always welcome.
Shoot him.
Shut up.
Ah, Diego. Good morning.
I see you have your gloves on.
Let's give them a try on the bag.
Come on, Diego. It's fun.
Just punch it.
That's good, that's good.
Now, when we punch,
we don't punch just to make contact.
We punch with power, to go through it.
Yes? Move the bag.
I can't move that.
I'm too small.
Size doesn't matter.
Try again.
More focus. Power.
Use your body.
One more.
Good.
I'm tired of just punching and kicking this bag.
I wanna learn how to take on a real person and beat them up.
Hey, this training is not to beat somebody up.
It's for self-defense only,
to protect those who are unable
to protect themselves.
Defend yourself, defend family,
but no looking for trouble.
Okay?
Through the years, I grew stronger
and more skilled.
But every time I close my eyes,
I saw my father's death.
I heard my mother's screams
and I saw the delighted look
on Richtefield's face as he did it.
I wanted to return and get my revenge,
but Bingwen forbade it.
Why don't you just quit?
I didn't raise a son to hurt people.
Even if I could try and get out,
I don't think it would do any good.
Richtefield is too powerful and influential.
Then don't quit.
Just leave.
Come home, my son.
I'm afraid I already put you and Xin Yi
in enough danger by sending Diego there.
If he were hunting me down, he wouldn't stop.
I knew the time would come when I would go back
to Texas and avenge my family.
When I overheard that Richtefield
had only got more power hungry
and bloodthirsty,
I knew that time was now.
Diego. Diego.
Easy. Easy. Easy. Easy. Easy.
I got you. I got you.
I got you. I got you.
Come on. Breathe.
It's okay.
Breathe with me. Breathe.
Diego.
Breathe with me.
I couldn't save them, Bingwen.
Diego.
If I knew I was putting you all in danger,
I never would've stayed here.
You overheard my conversation with Silas.
Three years before Silas found you,
his eldest daughter Catherine was kidnapped.
It devastated him.
Silas saw his daughter in you.
He could not protect his little girl.
So he wanted to take care of you for her.
Do you understand?
When I heard you and Silas talking,
you mentioned Richtefield.
He said something about him
committing atrocities for years.
So my family wasn't the only one.
Yes.
Blaine Richtefield.
Silas said he tears everything down.
And on that land, he builds factory farms.
The money generated
funds his criminal empire.
I need to go back to fix things.
Get our land back and to stop him.
No. Now is not the time.
You said I could go back when it was safe or I was ready.
Aren't I ready?
You're acting out of anger and revenge.
It's clouding your mind.
You will go back
and you will get what is rightfully yours.
But you have to do it the right way.
Otherwise, your past will never stop haunting you.
It was hard for me
not having my father here for most of my life.
My mother died when I was so little,
I barely remember her.
But grandfather
taught me,
taught us so much.
He loves you like his own, Diego.
I hope you know that.
I will forever be grateful to Bingwen and to you.
I don't know what would've happened to me
without both of you.
You'd probably still be a little scaredy-cat.
Probably.
So against Bingwen's wishes,
I took all the money I saved from working,
snuck out at night,
and set sail back to America.
Determined to put an end
to Richtefield's reign of terror.
- Oh, shit. -
Go, go, go.
Don't get any closer. I'mma drop it.
Just give me my things, I'll let you go.
My mother's necklace is in there.
Please.
No!
Where's my mother's necklace?
There he is.
Hmm, what do we have here?
What do you think? Do you like it?
Sure. It'll work.
You know, tomorrow, we got that big shindig.
And all those guys, they like to play,
so we need all the girls we can get.
All right. I'll get 'em cleaned up.
Come on, ladies. Let's go get cleaned.
Chop chop.
I like them like that. Just like that.
- By the way. - Hmm?
How's that real estate situation playing out?
Well, we got seven left, Ryan.
Hopefully it'd be down to four by tomorrow.
You know, me and the boys are gonna make
an unscheduled open house stop.
Looks like, um, Sheriff Hansen is here to see you.
Really?
Yeah, and he's been yapping a little bit about,
um, his friend in FBI.
- Oh. - Saying it's getting harder
for him to keep things quiet.
You know, that type of shit.
Okay.
Send him in.
Yes, boss.
Hey, buddy.
Ah. Sheriff Hansen.
- Hey. - How's it hangin'?
Pretty good last time I checked.
I'm glad.
Anyway, you know, I got this terrible debt on my head.
Daughter wanna buy a taco truck.
My daughter's sweet 16 party,
she wanted that goddamn thing and...
...she just kept bugging me
about it and making me crazy,
and little did I know,
I was gonna inherit this giant debt,
and, I mean, who knew?
I mean, I'm telling ya.
Having to pay for that truck
is like having a case of the clap,
just won't go away.
Kids.
Yeah, yeah, I mean, go figure.
- I... - Yeah.
Anyway, uh, Blaine,
I guess it wouldn't be so bad
if I just had a little extra income
coming from somewhere, you know what I'm saying?
Oh, yeah, I know.
Look, you guys got your enterprise, Blaine.
You're doing pretty good as far as I know,
- and I know a lot. - Uh-hmm.
But, um, keep everything off the record,
like you asked me, so--
We pay you handsomely for it.
Yeah, to a certain extent, yeah.
- But? - But?
It's not enough.
Well, is it ever enough, Blaine?
- I mean... - Is it?
Isn't it ever for anybody, I mean?
Well, you know, I did mention a way for you
to get rich quick, didn't I?
I mean, your daughter is, like, what?
She's almost 18 now.
Oh, you're gonna go there, huh?
It's there.
You got right on the edge with me, pal.
You ever mention my daughter again,
you're gonna be very sorry.
- Uh-hmm. - So I'm gonna--
I'm gonna go.
- Okay. - Yeah.
Oh, and, uh, kindly refer to me as Mr. Richtefield.
Only my mama calls me Blaine
and she's dead.
Ah, jeez.
Sorry to hear that.
Sorry to--
Mr. Richtefield.
Yeah.
Have you ever played this game before?
Yeah. - WILLIAM: Yeah.
You played this one.
So I won't feel bad taking your money.
Tequila, por favor.
I'm starting to think there's nobody in all of Mexico
that can beat me at pool.
Get my money ready.
Yeah.
Boom!
I'm champion once again!
Give me that money -.
Yeah. Yeah.
Hey, don't give it all to me.
Keep some for your baby girl diapers.
How 'bout you, boy?
You want a turn?
I don't play.
Tell you what, Bartender, his round's on me.
- Why? - See, I get a few more drinks
in you, maybe you wanna play.
And I'll beat you, too.
Who else wants his ass whooped?
Any cousin - to some sister?
Rack these balls up.
You don't look like you want a game of pool or a cold beer.
How'd you find me?
The truck, moron.
Plus, you don't exactly, uh, blend in.
Just let me grab my things.
- Excuse me. - Hello.
You don't want this.
You don't want this. Okay.
Now, we got a party.
Come on.
Come on. Let's go!
Remember, we need him alive.
Yeah, John, I know!
You'll end up just like the rest of them.
God!
Yeah. Come on.
Let's go.
Come on, bitches!
Come on!
Get off me!
Hey, I fixed your nose.
You look better now.
Stop!
Richtefield said alive.
I don't give a shit!
He broke my damn nose, man!
I don't know who the hell you are,
but you better hit the road unless you wanna get hurt, too.
I lied. You still ugly as shit.
You -.
God!
Woo!
Oh, shit.
You work for Richtefield, huh?
Yeah, kill him!
Where is he?
You're gonna take me to him.
Hey, cops man. We gotta go.
- We gotta go. - Yeah, it's the cops.
They own the cops!
Let's go! Now!
With me, right here.
You really bailed my ass out back there, man.
What are you doing in a bar with no money?
I just arrived here from China.
My things were stolen.
China?
Is that where you learned all that ninja shit?
Ninjas are Japanese.
- Thank you for the ride. - Hey, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Hey, where are you going, man? Look, hey.
Look, the border's hours away still, all right?
Just take a break.
Have a drink with me.
- Hey, man, what are you doing? - Is that why Richtefield
wants you alive?
- Because you work for him? - Hey, whoa, man.
I used to work for him, all right?
Not until my sister got killed.
Go on.
She OD'd on the shit I was smuggling
into the country.
I might as well have shot that poison
right into her arm myself.
I'm sorry about your sister.
So I quit.
Then and there.
And Richtefield didn't like that?
He said I knew too much.
I knew his name, where all his operations located.
Richtefield started sending guys after me.
I started moving around more.
But Richtefield, man,
he never stops.
He just keeps sending more and more guys.
Richtefield is responsible for the death of my family, too.
He killed them right in front of me.
Shit.
How'd you escape?
Richtefield isn't known for leaving loose ends.
Come on, man.
Talk to me.
What's your plan at the border?
I'll figure it out.
I'll walk across if I have to.
You know what?
Let me take you across the border.
Why would you do that for me?
Why not? I've done it before.
You should help me take down Richtefield.
I'm not crazy now.
Why would I run this long,
just to deliver myself to his doorstep?
So you can stop running.
Take a stand, William.
Fight back.
I don't know, man. I--
So you can stop looking over your shoulder
everywhere you go.
Maybe you can get him back
for what happened to your sister.
You know what, man?
Why not?
I'm in.
Thank you.
And I'll have your back too.
You already have, man.
Are you kidding me?
I'd be dead if it wasn't for you.
Yeah.
That son of a bitch is gonna get what he's got coming to him.
Silas, we still have men out looking.
No one stays missing as long as you throw enough money
and resources at finding 'em.
Okay?
Thank you, Mr. Richtefield.
Sure. Ryan.
Please tell me you were successful.
Very.
Hmm.
And the, uh, land owners, where are they?
Well done.
Although I brought one back with me.
Hey, bring it in.
Hey, hey, hey. Take it easy. Just--
Excuse me. Silas,
do you have a problem?
No, sir.
Men, what--what the hell happened to you two?
Did William do that to you?
Yes, sir.
We had him and some karate kid came out and bum-rushed us.
Do I have to get 'em myself?
No, sir.
Who are you?
This wise young lady decides
she wants to come work for you.
Under my supervision, of course.
Oh.
All right.
Looks like she fits right in.
Dude, this is why I'm telling you
to tape the hands behind their back.
Yeah, thanks.
Jesus Christ.
She's feisty.
Yeah, I can see that.
Well, if she's anxious to work,
just put her to work.
Give her to a client right now.
I think I should take a turn first,
you know, just to, you know, get her ready.
Guests first, Ryan.
They pay more when they're fresh.
Yes, sir.
All right.
Take her to holding.
Actually, hold on.
Silas, you take her.
Follow 'em.
Make sure they go right there.
Oh, yeah, James Swiftwater is waiting to see you.
Okay. Send him in.
Yes, sir.
You wanted to see me?
James, have a seat.
I gotta talk to you about your patrols.
I've been watching over your land
- just as instructed. - Yeah.
Well, people are still sneaking onto my land,
snooping around.
It's thousands of acres.
Look... James,
you have to be more vigilant, okay?
You need to start using
those fancy guns of yours, understand?
I got cops on a payroll.
I'm wasting fucking money.
Fuck.
You have anything to declare?
Just what a fine job you've been doing.
Smart-ass, huh?
What's behind the seat?
Just some crap my old lady
been nagging me to clean out.
You know how it is.
Do I need to take a look?
I mean, if you want to, be my guest.
Oh, just pardon the smell.
I'll survive.
On your ass ol' Park Ranger.
Okay. You're good.
Have a nice day.
Tell Mr. Richtefield hi.
So, Richtefield killed your parents.
Was it drug related?
He was after our land.
My father didn't wanna sell.
So, his men shot him...
and my mother.
Where were you?
I watched them...
shoot my father.
And then I listened to my mother scream...
and scream until...
screaming stopped.
And I just ran away.
You were just a kid, Diego. What else could you do?
Something.
Anything.
Yeah.
You did the right thing.
They would've just killed you too.
Yeah, maybe.
Hey.
Do you know her?
No, I do not.
The hell is she doin'?
Hey, get the hell away from my truck.
Busted.
I'll just be on my way.
What? Oh, hell no. It's not that easy.
You tried to steal my truck.
Yeah. Tried and failed.
Now I'm on my way. Enjoy your truck.
No. Hold on now.
Enjoy your truck.
Oh, that is it!
I don't care how cute you are. Get back here!
Take one more step! I dare you.
Oh, what?
You gonna poke me with your little switchblade?
All right. Enough!
Do it. One more step.
Goddamn!
Ha! You missed.
I promise you, I don't miss.
That was a warning shot.
You know what? That's it. I'mma punch you in the face.
All right. Stop! Both of you!
Get off of me!
What is your problem?
Why you trying to steal my crappy truck?
It says "Richtefield" on it, all right?
I hate the guy.
He is not our boss.
And that's not his truck.
Why is his name on it?
Because it used to be his truck
and he used to be my boss.
Why would you wanna steal it?
Opens a lot of doors.
Plus you can say he used to be my boss too.
Ah, fuck.
I told you it was an accident.
I thought you said you never miss.
Hand me the gauze.
Richtefield murdered my family
and William's sister.
We're here to find him and to take him down.
But you worked for him.
What did you do?
Saying "worked" is a bit generous.
He kidnapped me.
Was it for a ransom or something like that?
Not at all.
He just wanted to put me to work in his brothel.
But you managed to get out.
The first guy they put me in the room with,
I choked him with a neck tie and crawled out the window.
This girl helped me, but she got caught.
And what happened to her?
I'm not sure.
I've been trying to find her.
The last couple of years,
I've been able to sneak back in to the compound,
got a few girls out into a safe house I found
but, just never been able
to find the girl that helped me escape.
Last time I went,
my car got shut up beyond repair.
I'm just kinda stuck without wheels
and that's why I wanted your truck.
I think you should come with us.
Uh, Diego, a quick word?
Hey, are you crazy? She's nuts.
In case you forgot, she just stuck me with a knife.
She could've killed you if she wanted to.
Look, she hates Richtefield as much as we do.
She's familiar with his compound and she can help us get in.
Look, do you even know what you're gonna do
once you get in there?
Look, I get it.
But what's your plan? What are you gonna do,
just march in there and ask politely?
I'm gonna do whatever it takes.
And that includes teaming up with
and trusting complete strangers.
Oh, okay. Strangers like me?
Yeah, I get it.
Know this, if she puts another knife in me,
I'm gonna break her neck.
Hmm?
Okay. Yeah, fine.
Yeah. She can come with.
We talked it over
and we'd like your help
if you wanna come.
Can I ask for a slight change of plans though?
I can get you to Richtefield's compound,
but I can't free all the girls by myself.
There's too many guards.
You help me free the girls
and I get you Richtefield.
It's a deal.
I won't mess with you, if you don't mess with me.
All right. Let's hit the road.
Hey. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Ain't we forgetting something?
The tire ain't gonna change itself.
I'mma get a drink.
Dude, you gotta, like, warn me next time.
Let me step back before you blow their brains out.
Remember that one time in El Paso?
- Guys, get in. Come on. - Oh, sorry about that, sir.
Sir, I know we've gone down this road before,
but I really don't think
you should go on this job so much.
Let me and men take care of things.
What? Hell, no.
I'll never stop doing this.
I like being in the action.
I like getting my hands dirty,
especially when we're this close.
How close are we, sir? - RICHTEFIELD: Mm.
Well, the build permits were all signed this morning.
As soon as we get that Sheriff in that Polk County position,
we can grab the last two properties,
dam up that fucking stream,
and start building our complex.
Is replacing Sheriff Hansen really necessary?
Absolutely!
That guy's a money-grubbing motherfucker.
I'm sick of that guy.
Silas, what's going on?
Aren't you excited?
Oh, yeah.
I'm very excited, sir.
Good.
We worked so hard for all this.
Come on.
Guys, you want short ribs?
Hell yeah, sir. - Let's go.
Come on, Silas.
It's beautiful.
If Richtefield gets his way,
all this will be factory farms soon.
Hey.
We should build a fire.
Set up camp for the night.
Blanca, do you know anything about the building that he's in?
Any way for us to get inside?
I mean, it's not just one building but a few of them.
Carlos will be on one side,
Richtefield on the other...
of course protected by guards.
Do you know anything about this party
that he's throwing?
Just a bunch of rich assholes
getting hammered and sexually assaulting girls.
I feel sick just thinking about that place,
things that Fruitwood used to do to those girls.
I'm sorry, I didn't mean to-
You need know why this is important to me.
The girls told me what Fruitwood did to them.
I feel so fucking guilty that I'm out here
and they're still there.
Well, we're gonna stick together till we get all of them out.
I promise.
You're with us now.
Can we talk about something else now?
And just a few miles down that way
is the best barbecue joint in all of Texas.
Oh, yeah?
Sweet Lou's Barbecue.
I can almost taste it.
My parents used to take me there every Sunday after church.
Maybe after all this is over,
I can take you there sometime.
Uh, well, I'mma need you all to stop
talking about barbecue.
You're making me hungry.
Shit.
I'll warn you once.
Get off of this property
and do not return.
I think you got it backwards, hoss.
Why don't you turn your ass around
and get outta here before you get hurt?
It's time to go.
Don't make me shoot you.
- Got any rope? - I do.
So? What are we gonna do with him?
I say kill him.
He would've done the same to us.
We're not gonna kill him.
Maybe he has information.
Nah. He ain't gonna talk.
Look at him all stoic and shit.
You work for Richtefield.
Why should we let you go?
I'm just doing my job.
It's your job going around pointing guns at people?
It's my job to make sure
nobody comes snooping around Richtefield's land.
- I don't wanna hurt anyone. - Could've fooled me.
Look, I don't even like what I do.
He just has control over me.
He's threatened me,
my family,
my entire community.
I don't wanna fight.
Blanca, untie him.
What? Are you crazy? Blanca, no.
We are not gonna set him free.
He wanted to kill us?
Richtefield threatened you too, didn't he?
You of all people should be sympathetic to that.
Yeah, and I feel his pain.
But I still want him tied up.
He will never trust us if he's tied up like a prisoner.
Look, there's three of us, we have his guns.
What can he do?
All right. You know what? Fine.
If something go wrong, it's on you.
We just wanna talk, then you can go.
Nobody has to die tonight.
I'm Diego.
This is Blanca.
That's William.
James Swiftwater.
You said that Richtefield threatened you?
He told me if I quit that I would regret it.
My family would regret it.
Doesn't get any easier once you leave either.
If I had any family left, he'd be after them too.
Wait.
I think I recognize you.
You're William Freeman.
Yeah, yeah. Ain't no forgetting this beautiful face.
The drug runner.
There's a large bounty out for you.
Hey now, calm down, man. That's me, all right?
But I ain't a saint- - JAMES: You know what?
You brought that poison
into my community.
I had to watch as my brother
was shot in the spine
by one of Richtefield's drug runners.
I had to watch them but I don't have to watch now!
I made a- -
Stop it!
Cut it out!
I quit!
Damn!
Why is that so hard for you to understand?
That shit hit too close to home and I quit!
Now I'm trying to make damn amends!
Make amends?
You think amends can make up
for the lives that you've ruined?
- Can you bring back the dead? - No!
If I could, then I'd have my big sister back!
James, William is a good man.
He just made some mistakes like we all do.
But he's out here risking his life
because he wants to stop Richtefield too,
and he's helping me.
It's not that simple.
Look, I just wanna get my land back,
free those girls.
You steal from him.
You free those girls.
But he won't stop
until he hunts you down and kills you.
He can't hunt us down from prison.
Even if you lock him up,
he won't stop...
until you're dead.
James, help us.
Please.
I cannot take that risk.
For my family's sake.
If we stop him, your family will be safe.
The answer's no.
I'm sorry.
I won't tell them about the three of you.
I wish you luck.
Blanca, give him his guns.
I apologize for attacking you.
My emotions got the best of me.
Don't even worry about it, man.
You're just lucky they stopped me.
Jail and prison isn't gonna be enough for this guy.
We're gonna have to take down Richtefield...permanently.
But how are we even gonna get close to him?
I mean, I know where the place is
but, I haven't even seen, like,
80% of the compound.
I think I know someone who can help out with that.
A 49-year-old unidentified man
went berserk last night,
opening fire with a 12-gauge shotgun
in a crowded downtown restaurant.
14 people are dead, including three children,
four others suffered serious injuries.
Police have a suspect in custody but are not-
Can I help you?
Silas, it's me.
I don't know you.
You do.
You saved my life as a kid.
Diego?
Oh, my God.
Who are they?
This is Blanca and William.
They've been helping me.
They need to stay outside.
Hurry, come in.
Hurry.
Jesus Christ.
I'm glad to see you, Diego.
Oh, God.
Thank God you're safe.
Look at you.
But you should not be here.
Bingwen told me you disappeared.
But what are you doing at my house?
I would be executed if they find out you are here.
I am so sorry, Silas.
I never meant to put you in any danger.
Too late for that.
I'm here to take back what is rightfully mine
and to make sure Richtefield never does this to anyone else.
None of this is a good idea, okay?
I still see them, Silas.
My parents.
Every time I close my eyes.
You can stay.
But only for a moment.
Is it all right if my friends join in?
I overheard some of your conversations
with Bingwen.
I wish you hadn't.
I would never want you to hear these things.
I should not have even contacted my father at all.
It's why I left.
Hearing the fear in your voice.
Richtefield needs to be stopped.
It's not realistic.
He's too powerful.
That's why we were hoping you would help us.
Absolutely not.
- Don't you wanna hear our plan? - I don't.
He's gone mad with the power.
He's above the law.
Then why do you keep working for him?
That's exactly why!
Don't you get it?
Leaving would be much too dangerous.
Not just for me, but for Bingwen and Xin Yi.
I've seen what he does to "deserters",
as they call them.
It's not pretty.
I'm sorry, Diego.
I just can't be involved.
We're doing this tonight.
Blanca can get us to the compound.
But we need your help to get us inside.
If you won't help us,
we'll need to figure out a new course of action, fast.
I didn't save your life
so you could throw it away for revenge.
Revenge.
My father would not condone you looking for revenge, Diego.
This is not revenge.
This is defending the people who need it the most.
And if you can't see that, then-
I don't like your tone.
You came to my house, insult me,
put me in grave danger.
Okay, it's time for you and your friend to go.
Who's this?
Put that down and leave.
But I know her.
That's impossible.
She's been missing for 13 years.
I do. I know her.
I mean, she's way younger in this picture
but I'd recognize her anywhere.
It's Catherine.
How did you-where is she?
Tell me!
When I was younger,
I got kidnapped by Richtefield and his men.
No.
Forced in...
into his sex ring.
No.
No.
There were a lot of girls there
but, Catherine was the first one I met.
She showed me how to keep my composure no matter what.
She's the only reason why I thought escape
was even possible.
Is she, um, is she still there?
I don't know.
She was when I escaped.
I went back several times to find her, but I never could.
She's right under my nose this whole time.
I am so, so sorry, Silas.
I asked him.
When she went missing, I asked him
if he knew anything about it
and he promised me he knew nothing.
So I stayed and worked
for the monster for years
because he told me he couldn't help me find her.
But he had her this whole time.
You didn't know.
You couldn't know.
I always suspected.
I just didn't-I just didn't have the courage to get-
to get in his way because...
if I wasn't positive,
so I stayed close
and then hoping that one day
find some definite proof.
Silas...
join us.
Help us get inside.
If she's still there, we will get her out.
And you can have your daughter back home safely tonight.
I will help,
as long as we can get my daughter
and all the girls out of there.
We will.
I know we can do it.
And we'll kill Blaine Richtefield.
We will.
Ah. - Ni hao, my friend.
Say, we got a special package for a Mr. Bingwen.
Wouldn't happen to be you, would it?
I'm sorry. You have the wrong house.
You'll get that, Sheriff.
Bring him in here.
I want this done before the party starts.
Hey Blaine,
looks like you're having a big party.
I don't remember getting an invite.
Hmm. 'Cause I didn't send one.
Oh, gee, well, that answers that question though.
- Uh-hmm. - Well, Blaine,
I heard you're taking good care of, uh, Sheriff Crowley
over there in Randolph County,
and I heard you gave him a goddamn Cadillac.
Is that true? -
And so you want a Cadillac?
Well, I wouldn't say no.
I just don't understand why we just keep wigglin'
back and forth and...
why don't you just quit duckin' me?
Well, Sheriff, I'm not ducking you
and I don't appreciate your tone.
I've always taken care of you.
And this is the way you treat me?
Well no, not at all.
What about your friend in the FBI?
Oh, come on. Blaine, come on.
You're smarter than that. Come on. Gee.
I know where you heard that shit, from Fruitwood.
Why did he tell you that, man? What a shit-stirrer.
Come on, that didn't mean nothin'.
FBI, I got that shit taken care of, you know what-
You know, people go missing
in this town all the time
- and nobody seems to care. - Yeah.
Your daughter's been safe up to this point.
I'd like you to make sure we keep it that way...
and you know what I'm talking about.
And now who's threatening?
I know you're talking about my daughter, aren't you?
Come on, get him out.
You want fruitcake?
Goodnight.
You wanna kill a policeman, do you?
Get your goddamn hands off me.
And tell your monkeys to get back.
You be careful there, Blaine.
Too bad you can't make the party,
- Sheriff. -
I'm glad I missed it.
Get on outta here.
Hey, Ryan.
Hey, boss.
So are you and the girls ready to entertain our guests tonight?
Yup. You know it.
All right.
Any word from China?
They should arrive within the hour.
Good. Good.
Trust is such an important thing...
and I just don't trust Silas anymore,
but I can trust you, right, Ryan?
Sure you can, boss.
Good.
- Salut. - Salut.
Diego, the deed to your family's land
will be a small safe in Richtefield's office.
Thank you, Silas.
All right. We're counting on you, man.
All right.
William, any luck with your contacts?
He said he'll drive my truck.
Hopefully it's big enough to fit all the girls.
How close can he get?
He said the closest would be about a half mile
from the fence.
That'll have to do.
Let's go.
Are you okay down there?
I ain't gonna lie.
It's a little tight.
But I'll make it work.
Diego, are you two okay back there too?
Yeah, we're good.
Is this really going to work?
It has to.
But I'm glad you came.
As crazy as this is, I'm glad too.
Okay, guys.
We got lucky, because of the party,
most of the guards must be inside.
Okay.
Well, first things first.
We get the girls out.
Where are they being held?
There's a holding wing over there.
All right.
Do you know how many guards there will be?
Usually just a couple right on the inside,
then more spread throughout.
The longer we can go without alerting
the rest of the compound, the better.
So, stay quiet until we need to make some noise.
- Okay. - Okay.
Let's go get them.
Lead the way.
I'll take out the first two.
Be my guest.
Three kings with a queen lucky.
You really are as dumb as you look.
I got a PhD in physics.
I didn't know that.
What the hell?
The girls are on a large room, like a prison holding cell.
Let's go.
Just remember, stay quiet.
That's where the girls are.
Nope. No, no, no,
that's gonna alert the others.
I can probably take him.
He's just a little far.
He's not standing still.
I got your back either way.
Go for it.
You remember that blonde?
She could suck-start a Harley, man.
Oh, what the...?
Girls, girls,
we're here to get you out, okay?
Please help me. - It's gonna be all right.
- We're gonna get you out. - Let's go.
Come on. Come on. - SILAS: Guys.
Go. Follow them, follow them. Go, go.
Follow me. - It's okay.
Where's Fruitwood?
Tell me.
Where is Fruitwood?
He's on the top floor.
Come on, we gotta go. We gotta go.
Let's go. Come on.
I'll meet you out by the fence.
Blanca, we have the girls already.
Let's get them out of here and then go find Richtefield.
There's no way I'm leaving this place
without taking out Fruitwood.
Just keep those girls safe.
Blanca, it's not part of the plan.
Diego, I have to.
You understand that.
Then I'm coming with you.
I can handle Fruitwood,
but these girls need all the help they can get.
Why are you--fuck.
No.
Yeah, I'm about to head that way now.
How many girls do you want me to bring with me?
Richtefield says all of them.
Okay. Copy that.
Shit.
No.
You?
I should have figured.
I heard you've been creeping around,
stealing our girls.
It's bitches like you that give hoes a bad name.
I've been dreaming about this.
Her name's Catherine.
She's my daughter.
Has anyone seen my little girl?
Do you know her?
Her name's Catherine.
- I knew her. - You know her?
We should hurry.
Everyone in the compound probably heard that gunfire.
Did you get Fruitwood?
Yeah.
Next time, you let us help you.
You're not alone anymore.
Got it!
All right. All right, girls.
One at a time. Go directly west, that way.
- Let's go. Let's go. - There you go. Come on.
He's about a half mile out.
Where did she go?
Where did she go? Did she escape?
I'm sorry.
The night Blanca escaped, Catherine was with her,
but got caught.
What?
They killed her.
I'm sorry.
No! No, no.
No.
I'm sorry.
They killed her.
I'm gonna kill them all.
You're gonna get your chance, Silas.
I promise.
Blanca.
Where's Blanca?
Blanca, Blanca.
What are you doing?
I'm going with them.
I have to make sure they get to the safe house.
We're supposed to stick together till the end.
If I don't go with them, they'll get tracked down
and brought back or even worse.
Bye, Diego.
D. Hey, D.
Hey. Hey, she's gone, man.
At least she's safe. Hey, hey, hey.
We got to focus up.
You're right. She's safe.
Let's go get this son of a bitch.
All right. Drop your guns.
Now, please.
What the hell are you waiting for?
Go get the girls and bring them back!
We should have killed that son of a bitch.
Yup.
Mr. Richtefield, sir.
We got 'em.
Yeah. I'll be right down.
Don't kill anybody yet.
They've got some suffering coming.
Smile pretty.
Oh, wait, you can't.
It's fucking done.
Hey, Silas,
take a look at this family photo I've got.
Only one missing is your daughter,
Catherine, right?
Son of a bitch.
Cowards.
What'd you say?
He said you're all a bunch of cowards!
William...
my, oh, my.
Uh-hmm.
You've had this coming for a while.
Don't think I forgot about you, pretty boy.
Goddamn landscaping company, you fucking scammers.
Frank, I hate coming out here to this ratchet rock garden,
- okay? - Yes, sir.
We haven't done any landscaping out here.
It's depressing.
But I wanted to come and see our party crashers.
Look at you sorry ass bunch.
You're the karate kid, huh?
Will, do you fucking know how hard you are to find?
I heard you liked chasing me.
Oh, yeah, I love chasing you.
Fucking, Silas, you traitor.
You can have me, but let my family go.
Fuck you.
James, you're supposed to be patrolling the south side.
Oh, no.
Are you in trouble, you stupid son of a bitch?
Uh-uh.
Oh...
history repeats itself.
Uh-uh. Uh-uh. Uh-uh.
Nice try.
Yeah.
Die, bitch.
Whoa!
You look surprised.
I decided it was time to make amends.
Well, I saw Richtefield bolted for the main building again.
Follow me. There's a back entrance.
Come on.
Let's grab their guns.
Go, go.
Richtefield's office is upstairs.
Oh, fuck.
I'm out.
I got two left.
We're boned.
What do we do now, Diego?
James, make those last two count.
I will.
Ready?
Let's go!
You're back.
Let's not make a big deal out of it.
I just wanted to make sure the girls were okay.
William's guy is taking them to the safe house now.
I thought you were gone for good.
You guys helped me, I'm gonna help you.
Stick together till the end, right?
You dropped this.
Besides, you still owe me a trip
to the best barbecue place in Texas.
There's no way I'm missing that.
You serious?
Come on, man, break it up. We got work to do.
Get that off you, player.
You killed Frank.
I'm gonna make you pay.
I got shot.
Did you get hit?
Just grazed. I'm okay though.
Do you guys think you can cover me
while I make a break for those stairs?
While we make a break for those stairs.
Yes. We got you.
We're gonna go for it.
- Ready? - All right.
Go.
That's his office.
Let's end him.
Okay.
Come on.
Xin Yi! Father!
Silas, look what you made me do.
Are you guys okay?
You know each other?
How convenient.
Now, drop the weapons.
Now!
Kick them to the side.
Thanks.
Ran out of ammo?
Shitting me.
Come on.
Damn, boy, I thought you were good.
Huh.
You're a tough son of a bitch though.
What's your stake in this?
I'm here to avenge my family and take back what is mine.
You're gonna have to be a little more specific than that.
My father was Angel Padilla.
My mother was Alma Padilla.
You murdered them.
Oh, so...
you're that feisty little kid.
Shit.
I knew that Silas wouldn't take care of you.
Looks like I'm gonna have to do it myself.
Well, two karate kids.
Diego.
Diego. I got you.
I got you.
Let's take the scum to the police.
I own the police.
You don't own all of them.
We can take you to another city,
to a different state if we have to.
You're going to jail.
And we'll return everything you've stolen.
You're done.
Fuck!
You ain't got the guts.
Stay with us!
Somebody call an ambulance!
Okay.
Diego.
I'm here.
I'm here, Silas.
You are--
We're all hurt, Silas,
just hang on a little while longer.
Just hang on.
I made so many mistakes
but I thought it was to keep all of you safe.
My son, I will always love you no matter what.
I'm proud of what you did today.
Okay.
Silas.
What is it?
No.
Silas, Silas.
Hang on.
Silas, Silas.
Wow.
Well, hmm, what a fucking mess.
Are you here to arrest us?
Because if so, you just take me.
I'm solely responsible for this.
Hell no.
Not a chance.
No way. We're with him.
Anybody have any reason for me to make an arrest?
Looks to me like you're barely getting out of here
with your lives.
All things said and done.
Get out of here.
All of you get the hell out of here.
I got that covered. Don't worry.
My word to God, I'll take care of that body
and then make sure you get it.
Promise.
Get fucked in hell, you piece of shit.
Well, well, well.
Guess you finally got
what the fuck was coming to you, didn't you?
Blaine.
Bingwen, I am sorry that I left you and Xin Yi.
I never meant for you to get involved in this.
It was something you had to do.
And you stopped Richtefield from ever hurting anyone else.
Not fast enough.
I am so sorry about Silas.
The measure of a man is not from his individual actions,
but the end result of all those actions combined.
He saved you as a child and then you saved all of us.
That is the man I raised.
So my guy says the girls
are all secure at the safe house.
We did it.
We stopped Richtefield.
How can I ever thank you all?
How can we thank you?
You just gave me my freedom.
What now?
Well, don't have to look over my shoulder anymore.
I just get a,
I don't know, a job at a burger joint or something.
Stop running, just live a regular life.
And I'm gonna help those girls
get used to their new lives being free.
But first...
very excited to try this barbecue place
I've been hearing about.
It is the best in Texas.
So I've heard.
Well, maybe I can take you there tonight.
You know, now that I think about it,
I might just keep on making amends.
We did good.
But there are still a lot of men out there
like Richtefield scattered all across the state.
Across the country.
Exactly.
So, I don't know,
maybe instead of a burger joint,
I keep helping people that need help.
I'll join you.
Me, too.
I'm in.
We've gone this far.
I have to get Xin Yi and myself back home to China.
I might wanna stay here for a while.
Maybe we can help out.
Uh, we'll talk about it.
Things are starting to get exciting.
Really are.
You got Diego, well, mine, man.
What can I say? I know my barbecue here.
Well, then that sounds good.
Now, stop -
Stop holding.
