"according to him, you've sold him my coke and you took the money" "That's a fucking lie!" "I can't believe that you would believe this shit from a fucking Russian, man." "Let me see, Tre."

"A handgun bullet travels at... more than?" "700 miles an hour." "700 miles an hour." "So at close range like this, the force is gonna take you off your feet, for sure." "But it's really no more painful than a punch in the chest." "I hate getting punched in the chest." "You're gonna be fine, baby doll." "How was that?" "Not so bad." "Kinda fun, huh?" "Now you know how it feels, you won't be scared when some junkie asshole pulls a Glock." "I wouldn't have been scared anyways." "That's my girl!" "Alright." "Up you get."

"But if you called it fantasizing, it woulda been hard to argue." "All I knew was I never felt so good about myself." "Fuck!" "Okay, maybe I was still in the beta testing phase." "But it was a start." "What the fuck are you looking at?" "Nothing" "Get the fuck out of here" "Like every serial killer already knew, eventually fantasizing just doesn't do it for you anymore." "It was time to engage" "What the fuck?" "What the fuck are you looking at?" "I said what the fuck are you looking at?" "Two cheapshit losers screwing with a car that somebody probably worked their ass off to pay for." "Say what?" "Leave it be man." "This Motherfucker is obviously high." "I'm not high."

"They get mixed up in stuff, and..." "I know, but what if it was my fault?" "What if Kick-Ass did it?" "I mean I feel like should call cops or something you're talking crazy!" "there's no way!" "He probably didn't even read your e-mail yet." "Yeah?" " There's nothing to worry about " "I'm so glad you're here" "I look like such a mess" "You look Okay." "I'm here" "Yeah I'm Okay." "I hope it's Okay to say this, but" "It so sucks that you're gay." "I don't fuckin' believe this" "What kind of children's enterfuckingtainer is that?" "Huh?" "What kind of kid has a Spider-Man party?" "Sure." "But a fuckin' Kick-Ass Party?" "What are they're selling paper plates and napkins down at the store, now?" "Frank, You're scarin' me" "You're losin' it." "Since when did you start getting your hands dirty again, huh?" "And in public." "Since when I asked you Fucks to deliver me Kick-Ass and you don't deliver that's when." "Hey give me a break it's been a week." "We e-mailed him." "We got half the crew doing petty crimes as bait" "We're bustin' our asses here." "What hell are you doing?" "You back on the Powder now, as well?" "Mommy, I want Kick-Ass party." "Dumb little fuck." "I know a way you could get him." "Aww shit." "Chris" "How long you been there?" "What the hell you doin'?" "Get the hell out!" "You wanna hear it or not?" "Hear what?" "Okay, look: you're a superhero and you're lonely but you can't trust anyone because either they'll expose your secret identity..." "Comic books, this kids reads, all fucking day long." "The point is, there's only one way a superhero would trust a stranger and..." "I could be that stranger." "You just gotta give me a chance." "I know I can do it." "I just need a few things." "Like what?" "I need these things." "What, you fucking kidding me?" "What the hell is this?" "It's everything I need." "And you might have to screw somebody over Like, Louie, or somebody." "Louie?" "!" "Oh whoa, hey, Chris" "Or somebody, it doesn't have to be Louie." " Tony" " Tony" "Tony?" "I hate Tony - Hey, fuck Tony he's a scum bag " "I swear, dad." "If you let me do this, it's gonna work." "Tony" "Tony Romita, one of America's most wanted crime king-pins was arrested in Queens today." "after a 911 cal from someone claiming to be a superhero" "So how are things going with Katie?" "Oh, just peachy." "Had a sleep over and spent the whole night watching the entire Ugly Betty box set and did pedicures." "I'm telling you, though the longer you wait, the worse it's gonna get." "I know." "I was gonna tell her." "She just seems so happy." "I don't know whens the right time." "Well, now's your chance." "Hey guys" "Hi" "Oh, did you watch the TV?" "The new superhero guy?" "How cool was that?" "What?" "Hey look." "Can you turn it up please?" "Check this out." "But it seems that far from being put-off, this individual, who calls himself Red Mist, has decided to take crime fighting to a new level, as his actions last night proved." "Red Mist, how do you see it?" "Well, I guess folks have just had enough of living in fear, you know, and uh..." "Kick-Ass really proved that one individual can make a difference." "So, If anyone out there needs help, I'll be fighting crime 25/8." "And I'm just one click away." "RedMist. org." "Can you turn that off now?" "What's so special about that guy?" "He caught, like, a drug dealer Some most-wanted guy" "He saw 'em bringing out, like, a ton of stuff," " That's Pretty cool." "Yeah. way better costume than Kickass, too." "He's gotta cape- Yeah " "Capes rock- Yeah " "I'm kinda feelin' the cape." "Looks good." "What, better than Kick-Ass?" "I mean they're both kinda hot I just think that Red Mist has a better body." "Don't you think, Dave?" "Yeah Dave what do you think?" "Is that the kind of guy you'd go for?" "With all that leather?" "No, not me." "No, he's not really my type" "Kick Ass" "Red Mist" "Oh shit" "Fuck me, that kinda hurt." "You OK?" "Yeah, no I'm cool" "I can't believe you're here, man." "like you're my hero." "You... inspired me." "No Kick-Ass, no Red Mist." "Seriously." "Wow." "Really?" "Straight up." "And listen if you.." "I dunno know..." "if you wanted me to be your sidekick or something like that..."

"You're fucking kidding me" "What?" " Goddamit, just sit down " "What are you doing?" "What the hell is that thing?" "You bought this to spy on the nanny when I was a kid, don't you remember?" "Why?" "You put it in the warehouse?" "Yeah." "I thought it'd be cool to put the unmasking of Kick-Ass on the Internet, okay?" "Watch." ""Let's get the tag?" "he's on his way"" "Who the hell is this guy?" "I don't know, Dad" "But, Kick-Ass told me we're not the only super heroes in town." "Maybe he knows who this guy is." "I want this place locked down." "Nobody comes in, nobody goes out" "Not until somebody finds this cocksucker and blows his fuckin' lungs out through his chest." "Listen." "They're on to you." "Do you hear me?" "They're on to you" "I thought they were looking for Kick-Ass?" "Not anymore." "Gigante just put on a little movie show for us." "Different Superhero."

"Everything was out of control" "I didn't know what the hell to do" "You OK, buddy?" "You look tired" "Gonna have an early night tonight, maybe?" "And there was no one I could talk to about it" "Hello" "Yeah..." "I will." "I never felt more alone" "I've always dreamed of being a super hero" "But this... was a nightmare" "It was time to stop wearing this stupid costume" "But there was one last thing I needed it for" "What's the difference between Spider-Man and Peter Parker?" "Spider-Man gets the girl" "Hey-I'm Kick-Ass!" "I'm Kick Ass" "You e-mailed me." "Please..." "Oh..." "Fuck!" "Oh Fuck!" "Fuckin' freak in a mask-fuck!" "Get out of my house" "I'm not gonna hurt you, alright!" "No, no, it's me" "I was only trying to surprise you" " Dave?" "!" "Sorry - What the fuck are you doing?" "!" "Why are you dressed as Kick-Ass?" "Because I am Kick-Ass." "What are you talking about?" "And I'm also not gay." "Fuck!" "And I know I've been an idiot, and a shit friend, I lied to you, I know" "Oh my God!" "" "I know and if it makes you feel any better, I don't think you could hate me any more right now" "I hate myself." "Please I'm..." "Look, I'm really really sorry" "I've never met anybody who was as beautiful and as kind, and..." "lovely as you." "You deserve better." "Dave" "Yes" "My mom has the burglar alarm set downstairs." "You should probably use the window." "Or" "You could just stay." "stay?" "Like when we have a sleepover?"

"Add to shopping cart" "OK" "Out of Kickass and Red Mist, who do you think would win in a fight?" "Why are they fighting?" "That seems stupid" "What do you think?" "I don't know." "But I think Kick-Ass is cuter." "Really?" "I, for one, would definitely fuck his brains out if I got the chance." "You would?" "Definitely." "Do you... uh, feel like checking out that new Kate Hudson movie where... she's like a shoe designer kind of guy?" "I think we can make the next showing if we leave..." "Hell yeah." "I guess we're not invited" "Alright.. you know what, come here" "I'm going to request a great meal for you right now" "Suddenly, I understood why super heroes only exist in the comics" "I doubt why people didn't risk their life for strangers because, for the first time in my life" "I had something to worth living for" "Something to lose" "Katie was worried about me getting hurt, so I promised her my Kick-Ass days were over." "And the truth was," "I hardly missed it at all." "I hadn't even checked the web site for, like, a week." "Ok..." "I'm off then." "No Katie tonight?" "Tomorrow." "Wednesdays she does one of her volunteer things." "You seem like a different guy, you know that?" "Your mom would've been so happy to see you out of your shell like this." "Have a good night" "Hey, baby - Hi, what's going on?" "" "I gotta do that Kick-Ass thing" "What?" "I thought you were done with that?" "This is the last time." "I totally swear..." "I worry about you" "I wish you wouldn't worry." "I can't help it." "I do." "Because I..." "I... care about you a lot." "I... care about you a lot, too." "This better be serious, Dude, because I promised my girlfriend that I'm done with all this shit." "How about both of us being dead?" "Is that serious enough for you?" "Dead?" "How?" "Well it turns out those dead guys from the warehouse had some bad motherfuckers for friends and they think we did that shit." "There's a price on our heads, man." "A price on our heads?"

"Remember you mentioned that there were other super heroes" "Yeah." "Well, do you think they can help us?" "Hot chocolate, extra Marsh-mellows." "Oah." "That looks even cooler than in the picture" "Child" "You know because in the picture it didn't have Gatling guns" "Nice job." "I'm gonna take my new bed, Okay?" "Okay, baby doll." "Sleep tight - Thanks" "Oh, Kick-Ass?" "Mmh" "You go get dressed I'I tell him to meet us at safehouse B" "We'll have our hot-chocolate when we get back." "Okay daddy." "C'mon." "Here we go." "Do you know where that is?" "No." "But I'll just put it in the GPS." "Alright, let's go" "Shit" "Well" "Here you are, and Red Mist, too." "Pleasure to meet you." "Good to meet you sir."

"" "Kick Ass I'm sorry" "Get in there" "You better fire this asshole!" "Ignore him." "A Bazooka?" "OK" "We had a deal, dad." "We had a fucking deal that would get you the guy who did it." "All I'm asking is you let Kick-Ass go!" "He didn't do anything wrong!" "Chris, you gotta look at this from my point of view." "Okay?" "I gotta send a public service message to the people out there that being a superhero is bad for your health." "And the big motherfucker?" "Nobody knows who he is." "Yeah, but that's not fair!" "Life's not fair, kid." "Get over it." "What are you gonna do with them?" "You really want to be a part of my business?" "Yeah." "Then sit down, shut up and watch." "Frank, we're ready" "Enjoy the show" "You patched-up with this thing?" "I sure am big brother." "Watch and learn" "Welcome back to breaking news a world wide web broadcast of the New York superhero who calls himself Kick-Ass." "is about to be shown live." "Rumors have it that this will be Kick-Ass' farewell appearance that he will announce his retirement from crime fighting but as word-of-mouth continues to spread, internet providers are predicting that it could be one of the most widely viewed live events in web history." "Hey, where's Dave?" "Hey have you guys noticed - He's with Katie... obviously." "Why else would I be here?" "With no idea as to who is behind the broadcast of this show" "But we could see wide spread server crashes" "Dave, why didn't you tell this is what you were doing." "You're on the news." "Call me" "We go now over live to the countdown clock as we are moments away." "Showtime" "Hello boys and girls, now this... uh..." "well you know who this guy is." "And... uh... this guy here is Big Daddy" "And these are my friends." "Come on in guys say hello" "Yeah." "Yeah there they are Hello, Hello" "Now Big Daddy and Kick-Ass are gonna help us show you why being a hero is a bad idea." "You know what a silent "K" is?" "That's when "K" is at the beginning of the but you don't pronounce it like in the word knuckle duster" "Show them what knuckle duster can do, Guy." "Oh that must've hurt." "Let's see that again on the other side, go." "Oh Yeah, look at this" "Now in France they say the word stick like this..." "Ba-ton" "We have some of Kick-Ass' batons." "We're gonna show you what they can do." "Go ahead boys." "In America we say stick like this..." "Baseball Bat" "For hitting' knees.." "hands..." "It's also good for hittin' balls." "We don't do 'em individually, we do 'em all together." "Gentlemen please." "Yeah." "Oh this looks very painful..." "Due to the distressing nature of the images we are unable to broadcast the events currently streaming live on the Internet" "No No" "Misguided miscalculations suggest that this may be some kind of hoax or publicity stunt." "It is now clear that the hostages are in genuine danger" "That all signs point to the intentions to stage a live execution in the next few minutes" "Even with my metal plates and my fucked up nerve endings," "I've gotta tell ya, that hurt." "the silent killer" "But not half as much as the idea of leaving everything behind." "Katie" "My dad." "Todd and Marty" "And all the things I'd never do." "Like learn to drive." "Or see what me and Katie's kids would look like." "Or find out what happened on Lost." "And if you're reassuring yourself that I'm gonna make it through this since I'm talking to you now, quit being such a smart ass." "Hell dude." "You've never seen Sin City?" "Sunset Boulevard?" "American Beauty?" "And this,... for all you brave men out there..." "is fire." "Fire, Fire's good" "Fire is our friend" "Gentlemen" "Time to die." "What the..." "Find me a lighter" "I've got it" "No!" "Take cover, child!" "Now switch to Kryptonite!" "Eject, 2 rounds and relay!" "Show's over mother-fuckers." "Yeah!" "I think I'm in love with her, dude." "She looks like she's about 11 years old, but..." "I can wait." "I solemnly vow to save myself for her." "I can see that this can be really difficult for you." "Are you OK?" "Yeah." "Whoa" "Good job." "I'm so proud of you, baby doll" "Are you OK?" "Yes" "Getting shot, daddy, hurt a lot more than when you did it." "That's because I used low-velocity rounds, child." "You're the kindest daddy in the whole world" "I just..." "I love you" "I love you too, daddy" "I love you, dad good night" "What's your name?" "I mean, your real name" "A super hero never reveals her true identity." "What!" "?" "Look, you can't go on..." "However you lived before..." "It's over." "Is there anybody else?" "Any other family, or?" "I can take care of myself." "I saved your sorry ass!" "what about money?" "Alright, cause you've got to think long-term" "I've got three million dollars in a suitcase!" "That long-term enough for ya?" "It's not all about the money," "I owe you" "If not for you, I'd be dead." "if it wasn't for you my dad wouldn't be." "Look pack up whatever you need and we'll go back to my place." "I just need to clean up, I think?" "Woah." "I meant, like pajamas and clothes and stuff." "You can't take that stuff to my house." "You know what my dad would have really wanted?" "He would have wanted me to finish what we started." "And that's exactly what I'm gonna do." "Is this Frank D'Amico's place?" "All that security" "Are you crazy?" "My mom already died for nothing." "So, I'm sure as hell not gonna let my dad die for nothing too." "You can't do this on your own." "Exactly" "You wanna deal with owing my dad?" "Then shut the hell up and pick your weapon." "Is that what I think it is?" "Damn straight." "Oh you better start reading the instructions, 'cause you're gonna be using it in about five minutes." "Yo listen up, you've got 5 minutes and I want you back on your post and don't leave a mess" "Everything okay?" "Things alright, boss" "Can't believe I got my gun back" "Look at that" "You know it's not that.." "Let her in" "That's a little kid" "What's the matter with you?" "You okay, sweetheart?" "No, I lost my mommy and daddy." "she lost her mommy and daddy" "You wanna use my cell phone?" "Now can you remember the number?" "Had I ever been a real superhero?" "The most I'd ever had to offer the world was good intentions and a slightly elevated capacity to take a kicking." "With no power comes no responsibility." "Except that wasn't true." "shit" "Hey I'm in here come help me out!" "Wait, fuck this!" "And, everybody's dead!" "She's behind the counter, she's out of ammo." "Do you think they got her?" "If they didn't he will." "Get out there" "Now?" "Yeah, now" "What the fuck is going on?" "We got her trapped she's still alive" "So what the hell you guys waiting for?" "Go get her- Go ahead-." "I ain't got no fucking gun." "I'm not going in there." "Do it now" "Come on" "Fuck this shit." "I'm getting the Bazooka" "Bazooka?" "Bazooka" "Whoa hold it." "It's only me boss." "Everything is under control." "Under control?" "You're grabbing a fucking Bazooka you dumb ass." "Sir?" " Do it " "I always wanted to say this... say Hello to my little friend" "Holy shit" "That is one weird sounding Bazooka" "Stu!" "Fuck!" "Get out" "Play time's over, kid." "I never play" "Oh really?" "Ruin my business, Huh?" "I'll kill every single fucking guy or gal in my way" "I wish my son was just like you." "It is time for family reunion" "Hey" "Why don't you pick on someone your own size." "You Ok?" "Yeah" "Time to go home" "Thanks, Kick-Ass." "My daddy..." "He would have been proud of both of us." "Dave" "Dave Lizewski." "I know that, dumbass" "Mindy" "Mindy MacReady" "Bye" "Mindy moved in with Marcus and he enrolled her at my school" "Bye - Good luck - first school she'd ever been to on the promise that I'd look out for her." "Hey" ""Not that she needed me too"." "Hey." "New kid." "Hi" "Lunch money." "Now." "Kick-Ass was gone, but not forgotten." "And my world is much safer with all the new superheroes." "They said I was their inspiration" "But all I did was make a door into a world I dreamed about, since I was little kid." "A world full of super heroes, huh?" "like a great man once said..." "Wait'll they get a load of me."
