[Music]
That's good.
[Music]
I'll see you later, baby.
[Music]
I found the chin a man.
Where?
New Orleans.
Are you sure?
Let's go talk.
[Music]
Who knows?
Lisa, Norton, kurczynski.
Two, four, six,
ten mil.
How's Lisa's plan look?
How'd you find him?
It's complicated.
Just followed the money, you know?
Casinos.
That's fucking incredible.
How fucking happy I am?
You know how big this is?
How is Lisa?
She's older now, like all of us.
But she's still got it.
She's already working
her angle matter of fact.
Fucking chin a man took everything from us.
Look how I'm fucking living.
I fucking quit.
Do you know how big this is?
Hell yeah.
I'm so happy.
[Music]
It's easy to find a thief in New Orleans.
Within two minutes some guy took the bait.
I'll get some collateral.
[Motorcycle fires up]
[TV]
Gigi!
I don't hear you playing!
[Piano music]
[Water flowing]
[Laughing]
She answered the iron?
That's how she burnt her face.
[Water flowing]
[Birds chirping]
And I'll get them all back?
Right?
When do we begin?
We got our guy.
If we haven't worked with
him before, he's a liability.
What's his cut?
Every one of you still
gets $2 million each.
We busted our ass to steal that painting,
and we did a beautiful job.
And I just want it back
now, all for myself.
Why?
Why you wanna keep
it if it's worth so much?
Really?
Does anyone just want their share now
and to run off?
No, no, no.
Good.
Then get me his address.
The stoltzfus?
Yeah, he's got it.
An address?
401 canal street.
Penthouse.
I don't suppose you know how to use this.
Load it.
Well then, a bit of advice.
When this is over, move.
You think I'm joking.
It's the responsibility
of the first magnitude.
I'm sorry, Mr. Wilson, but you must...
Blast all this discussion.
What good are words? I'm sick of words.
Hang the
repercussions and the responsibility.
If I fail, I am responsible.
Leave the cell door open.
Let him escape. Let him.
It's our only chance...
Sure he can
threaten me with the bottom bits of hell.
And still, I insist, this
obscenity must be destroyed.
You hear me? Destroyed!
Give me your purse.
I saw you at the theater.
The purse.
Do you know who my husband is?
And the keys?
Did she see your face?
If I were you, I'd ditch the bike and
leave town for a while.
[Money]
Okay, I have keys. Did you find cars yet?
[Music]
[Bug zapper]
Who sent you?
You're so gonna die.
Who sent you?
Hong!
Charlotte?
Gigi?
Gigi?
[Music]
Suit guy.
Neighbor dude.
Tux guy.
From the beach.
And... Good old mom.
Villanueve.
That's what his wallet said.
Hong's new partner.
Anyway, her family came in yesterday.
I.D.'ed her.
Said her daughter
was missing or something?
Cause of death?
Steak knife.
Steak knife.
Stake.
Knife?
No, stake.
Iron fence post.
Right through the chest.
Oh, and handgun shot.
He's the first guy that came in.
Point blank range.
Hong's new partner suddenly killed?
Don't know why.
Then soon after
our hired gun offs soccer mom and the
neighbor with a steak knife.
Why?
It's quieter than a gun.
Houses are close together.
And our mystery man
stumbles on the scene
surprises our pro.
Maybe they scuffle.
It's quite a scuffle.
Mystery man wins.
Who killed you?
She made him.
Not our problem.
How do you know?
Did he tell you?
He doesn't speak.
He paused.
What do you mean he paused?
He paused when I asked.
You brought him into this.
And he fucked it up!
Look, we just need to move a little
faster before they change the locks.
Or they find him.
Need a plan b if they change locks.
We go in this weekend.
Home's out of town and so's his old lady.
Read my lips.
I need time.
And you'll get time.
We'll have him go in and check the locks.
Who?
The guy.
We don't need a peace offering.
We need you not to fuck up your job.
I appreciate the gesture, but he's
already dead if she saw him.
Oh no, no, I back that idea.
We're gonna need more
lookouts who are good with a gun.
You said so yourself.
Fine.
Invite him along.
The kid and I stand guard here and here.
We give the
guy the keys and the elevator code.
And he goes in first.
If the locks have been
changed, we call it off.
If he gets in, we all move in.
How about plan b?
If it's locked, it's next
to the theater, right?
Can't I just go in through the top?
[Locksmiths chatter]
We may have a problem.
What?
The locksmiths are leaving.
Looks like they beat us to it.
This place is huge.
Maybe it's a different condo.
Yeah, right.
Yeah, right.
Messy.
What you gonna do old man?
This should be you.
I'm a back door man.
They on to us.
Probably even home.
Hold.
The codes are not working.
I'm taking the stairs.
Told ya.
Yes, take the stairs.
This isn't working either.
Man, that shit's bolted.
No. The door to the
service elevator's locked.
Ok, go.
Nice case.
Thanks.
What's in it?
My dinner.
[Audience clapping]
Roadblock.
Take care of it.
Can you go around?
I don't think so.
Try.
Ok.
Clear.
Take position.
You know, when I drop this
shit, they might be on the way.
[Music playing]
You gotta be kidding.
[Alarm]
[E.m.p. Turns on]
[Power turns off]
Ok.
Clear.
Open the back door.
[Music playing]
Go ahead.
Time's ticking.
[Beeps]
Who's got the bolt cutters?
I thought you brought the bolt cutters.
You gotta be kidding me.
Fuck me.
God damn
fucking chin a man! We're this close!
Shh.
Let's just get everything out the boxes.
No.
We're here for the painting.
It can't fit in these boxes.
It's gotta be upstairs.
Julio?
[Grunting]
[Loud bang]
[Grunting]
It's always stairs.
Go watch the door.
[Music playing]
Can you open it?
I can open anything.
My tools.
Hello, assholes.
You.
Uh uh, back off.
Why you all steal from me?
You? Steal from you?
You don't want to mess with master.
I taught you how to fight.
You old now.
That's why I have her and this!
Get away from the safe.
You.
Dumbass.
I've almost got it.
Got what?
What are you looking for?
The painting that you stole.
What are you people, retarded?
You gotta be fucking kidding me.
We had a deal, Hong.
You betrayed us.
I love this painting.
It's my good luck charm.
How could you?
I know it wasn't right to
hold on to it for so long.
But I did.
It's a sign of good faith, right?
Gentle.
Gentle.
[Music playing]
I was gonna give it
back when my streak ended
and not even take my original cut.
Come on, guys.
How you been?
Where you been?
Why did you run off with it?
Oh, come on.
You want to go there?
Really?
Yeah.
I really want to go there.
What do you remember of that job?
The card game with the security guards?
[Laughing]
All Norton
had to do was let them keep winning
while you stole their keys.
But he doesn't like
to lose, and he got impatient
and killed them all.
Lisa, even the little things matter.
You were
caught right on camera, walking too fast.
All of you screwed
up in one way or another.
It wasn't a clean job,
but none of you would take responsibility.
I trained you all better than this.
But you never listened.
You thought you were perfect.
You thought it was a beautiful job.
Once you handed it off to me,
it was a quick switch-a-roo
and out of the city before
you even knew what happened.
Lisa, that painting is a sickness.
It has corrupted your soul.
You would kill anyone in
your way for that painting.
Possessing it will not
bring your father back.
Listen, let's make a deal.
I'll give you the money.
It's more than what the painting's worth.
You should've moved on, people!
Get a life.
No deal.
How about this?
My chubby fights Nia for it.
Last one standing, gets the painting.
No deal.
Fuck you guys.
Shoot me.
Tell me.
It's embarrassing.
You.
I loved you.
But I might as well
have been invisible to you.
You were our boss.
My children.
No one loves an old man.
I'm a good guy.
Always around you, I felt so alone.
I knew you'd never love me.
So I took what mattered most to you.
Where's the painting?
And the money?
Really? That's nice.
Nobody was watching that little bastard?
You go that way.
We're gonna go the other.
We need this vehicle.
Hong? Krczynski?
Okay. You go help kycrzynski.
Little buddy?
Whiskey.
We're never gonna find him.
He loves his motorcycle
he'll eventually come back and get it.
She's gonna put a tracker on it.
I was thinking of
something a little more immediate.
Two things, actually.
Lisa said he had a neighbor girl.
Just take her for a little bit.
Norton, you really worry me, man.
Nobody'll get hurt.
What's the other idea?
Lisa said she already had enough money to
pay us all our shares.
I work for my money.
[Scoffs]
In crime.
Nobody's perfect.
Let's take Lisa's money.
And go where?
She'll never stop until she finds us.
Not if she's dead.
Just go talk to her.
I'm sure she'll pay you off to go away.
This has been such a cluster fuck.
She doesn't care about you.
She called you fat.
And you're still fucking in love with her.
Pathetic.
The trick in life is not to panic.
We stick together.
No dumb mistakes.
No bad Karma.
Nothing.
Do you hear me?
Okay.
[Glass crashing]
Take it easy, hey.
I put up with your shit for a long time,
Norton, because we go way back.
I put up with these ugly
shirts and your shitty attitude.
And I keep my mouth shut
because I feel sorry for you.
I do what needs to be done.
Ever since the third grade, I've been
covering for you, man.
I know.
Do you remember Julian pope?
I made him kiss the soles
of your shoes, 10th grade.
And you were in the wrong.
I've always protected you instead of just
letting you learn your lesson.
And now this.
You've got a black heart, man.
And you've got this thing inside you.
And it ain't right.
Point being, nothing good
ever came from kidnapping.
And nothing good ever
came from betraying a friend.
Now, you're a smart guy.
Act like it.
Hold on for a second, man.
Yo.
Did you find anything?
Come on, man. I got
this thing on lock, man.
I don't know what that
means. I don't speak jive.
That's racist. It means I'm multitasking.
Okay. This one is set and
turned on. Do you have a signal?
Got it. Let you know if it moves.
How much are your memories worth?
What?
I think Norton's gone rogue.
Someone's coming.
You got a piece?
No.
[Muffled cries]
[Tracker beeps]
We got a hit.
The motorcycle's moving east on ferret,
passing Broadway now.
All right. I'm ten minutes out.
Station wagon...
There's a girl in the car!
Why don't you just get in the car and go?!?
I saw a car go... it
was like a station wagon...
[Phone ringing]
Hello?
Who's this?
Don't kill him. Do not
kill him. We need him.
Get in the Van.
Hey, freeze!
[Gunshot]
[Gunshot]
Shots fired. Shots
fired. I got a male down.
Corner of annunciation and valence.
[Indistinct radio chatter]
911. What's your emergency?
Uh, right now. We got like a Mexican
Cuban caravan that must have
crash-landed on higgs beach.
There's a couple of dead bodies. There's
one guy alive walking around in a daze.
He looks like he was with him.
Okay, sir. Someone's on the way.
I'm gonna keep you on the phone.
Are you in any danger?
No, no, no. This guy. Picking up photos.
Picking up photos. With
all these dead bodies around.
Now he's just
sitting there. What can you tell me?
My kid found him. There's
another little child face down.
Another one wrapped in a blanket.
Are they breathing?
No, I said everyone's dead.
No, everyone's dead except one.
These people... look like they're family.
[Thunder]
Hey! Hey!
Hey, where are you going?
Hey!
Hey!
How did you know I had her?
The kid told me you lied to him.
How did he know I was lying?
He put a tracker on your car.
I grabbed her when she was sleeping.
Is there something you want to say to me?
Yeah.
If you get a hold of him,
tell him I have the girl.
Give him this number.
We'll make a clean swap
the painting and the money for the girl.
I'll keep her at the boathouse.
You guys don't have to get involved.
When it's all over, we'll divvy
everything right up.
I will take care of this.
I'm the gun guy. Let me do my job.
[Phone rings]
Talk.
Where's the girl? And where's my stuff?
One of my guys went off book.
I can't control him.
He said for you to bring the painting and
the money to 5422 bayou road.
The boathouse.
If he hurts the girl, I'm coming for you.
[Sobbing]
Geez, you didn't even get out.
I brought Mr. Whiskers.
[Sobbing]
[Screams]
[Screams]
[Choking]
[Blubbering]
Stay.
Hello? Lisa?
Let's go have a chat.
Shh.
Where's Julio? The kid?
Dead.
I got this. You go over there, you over
there, I'll go over there, and when he
pulls up, I'll shoot him. With this.
And what if he doesn't have the painting?
Or the money.
I hadn't thought of that.
Oh.
Yeah.
Of course he's going to bring the stuff.
And what if he brings the cops?
Then she's dead.
Where's his photos?
I don't know.
What do you mean you don't know?
He can't be here already.
That's impossible.
Did somebody follow you?
I don't think so.
Go watch the girl.
Fuck that.
Go that way.
[Phone rings]
Lisa, you've been bad girl.
I'm going to find you.
You have a lot of my cash.
I don't like that.
I'm going to come to get you.
You should have killed me when you
have chance.
You didn't know I have brand new crew.
They will come to get you.
They will come to get you.
[Gunshot]
[Gigi screams]
[Scream]
[Sobbing]
[Gunshots]
[Gunshot]
Oh, god damn it.
[Gunshot]
[Crying]
[Scream]
[Gunshots]
[Gunshots]
[Return fire]
[Gunshots]
[Gunshots]
[Gunshots]
[Gunshots in distance]
[Gunshots in distance]
We just want the money.
I'm not here for her.
Shoot her, I don't care.
You bluffing.
And you're too chatty, where's the girl?
She went up the little bridge.
Well, I'm gonna go
that way now and find the girl.
You can go that way and
check behind the first
oak tree on the left side.
We can just go our separate ways, partner.
What about her?
Keep her.
Walk.
I've never shot a woman in the back before.
But there's always a first time.
He said the first oak, right?
Left.
Right. Left. Right. Left.
Let's go get that money.
What if it isn't there?
I don't deal in "what if's."
What if he's playing you for a fool
and you had him dead to rights?
All right, shut your trap.
I bet he's got his
sights trained on you right now.
It's awfully quiet, isn't it?
Did you hear that?
So what's the plan?
Let's go look together.
Hmm.
Jackpot.
Open one.
How much is it?
More than I've ever seen.
Well, don't just sit there, show me.
[Gunshot]
(Gunshots)
(Gunshots)
Oh, there you are.
About time.
She's just up ahead.
Help me grab her.
She's gonna be happy to see you.
I wonder who that was up there.
You got my money?
Maybe.
This was supposed to be a clean hand off.
I apologize she's run off like this.
I know you're an horrible man.
I wanna hold up my end of the bargain.
The shoe appears to be on the other
foot now, eh?
Fuck.
Where'd she go?
I lost her tracks.
They ended right about here.
