"You think he has a handicap?" "No." "The other guy has a handicap if he cannot control himself." "You control yourself, you control him." "Take him to court." "A man distracted is a man defeated." "That's right." "You heard that before, huh?" "Heard it again." "Take him to court." "Taking him to court." "Good." "Cut him down." "Fight's over." "That's it." "Fight's over." "Finish it here."

"Show me the escape." "Good!" "Good." "You know the escape." "You just got tired." "What's the lesson?" "Don't get tired." "Let the other guy get tired." "You wanna fight like a black belt, huh?" "You wanna test for the black belt?" "Snowflake, give him his wish." "All right." "Raise your hands." "Well, your hands." "Get them up, up." "Administer the fight." "Administer the fight." "Insist."

"Well, you said I had to find it before 8." "All right, thank you." "Okay." "Hey, hey." "Wait, wait!" "Stop!" "That's the one." "Hi." "Hi, yeah, I missed the guy." "I'm gonna need your help with some of those things." "No, a regular doctor's not gonna fill the prescription." "What?" "Because he's closed." "The prescription's not gonna stand up at a straight pharmacy." "All right, but I need a" "All right." "Okay." "Hello?" "Hi, this is Sondra Terry with Southside Jiu-jitsu." "Yeah, I have your invoice number 20903." "Yeah, you indicate you did not receive our payment." "Okay, but on my record it shows that" "Look, I'm trying to run a business just like you and" "Oh, wait." "As all the world knows, tomorrow's Wednesday." "So be on Wednesday's schedule." "Nine a.m., Beginning Self Defense, 11:15, I'm washing the mats." "You're gonna have to train if you want that black belt, Officer Joe." "Mike?" "What, you want the officer to walk you home?" "It's rough out there." "After he gets his black belt he can walk me." "That would make me feel secure." "How?" "I know his fucking pants aren't gonna fall down." "Hey, by the way, weren't you gonna buy a new rig?" "I was thinking about it." "Oh, you were thinking about it." "I tell you what." "Why don't you take some of that good off-duty money and buy a new shoulder rig." "Why?" "A shoulder rig's nothing but a handle." "Excuse me." "Who's the--?" "It's all right." "Come in." "Hi." "Mike?" "Yeah." "I believe I" "Can you come here?" "Take it easy." "Yes, thank you." "I was driving" "Take off your coat." "How can we help you?" "Look, I hurt your car, okay?" "Hey, Joe, take the lady's coat." "Come on." "I'll pay you cash so we can just-- No!" "Stay away from me!" "Miss." "Don't touch me!" "Don't touch me!" "I'm a police officer!" "The wind blew something in through the window." "The wind blew something in?" "Yeah." "Yeah." "Sure." "Y'all okay?" "Yeah." "We're fine." "You want me to start the cleanup?" "Yeah, thanks, Snowflake." "What am I gonna say, "She tried to kill a police officer"?" "You sure?" "I'm sure." "It's okay." "It's okay." "I'm an attorney." "I can't" "The officer thinks it didn't happen." "I'm sorry, I don't...." "He thinks it didn't happen." "You were going to the mountains." "No, that's funny." "Joe?" "Joe still inside?" "No." "He just left." "Left?" "Yeah." "Maybe he went to the club." "What happened to the window?" "Isn't he on at the club?" "That's funny." "Weren't you going to the mountains?" "Why would he go to the club?" "Isn't he working tonight?" "The club?" "No, no, no." "He hasn't worked at the club in months." "Listen, I have to tell him something." "Okay?" "Tell him." "Why?" "Why what?" "Why hasn't he been working there?" "Yeah, no." "Listen, I gotta get home." "Officer Joe let the girl walk." "Yeah." "I suppose he did." "That was generous of him." "Yeah, I think so." "Why did he do that?" "He didn't wanna bring dishonor on the academy." "Yes, of course." "I need a black belt for him." "He didn't want to bring dishonor on the academy." "Yes." "Thank you." "The car?" "The car?" "The girl drove into your car." "I didn't look at that." "They want cash to get the window boarded up." "Do you have any cash?" "And on your business for which you have no cash, we need to replace the window." "Your check bounced." "My check?" "To the martial arts supply." "Mike, we're short." "You have no cash." "If we pay the window, I can't make the rent." "Hello?" "You need to ask Ricardo for a loan." "Mike." "You go ask him for a loan." "Hey, Mike." "Hey, Billy." "Jimmy, you can't smoke in here." "We got Mike Terry down here." "Fucking world turning into a dungeon." "He's sorry." "He's busy." "Five minutes." "Ricardo said that?" "Bruno." "Ricardo's out." "Put the cigarette out." "Fine." "I'll take a beer." "You ain't got no bouncer?" "Just weekends now." "Officer Joe?" "Billy." "Billy, I'll roll you for this drink." "I hardly think so." "Joey the cop?" "Yeah." "Quit." "Come on." "I'll roll you for this drink." "Here, you check out this die." "So where you been, the cruise ships?" "He works the cruise ships." "Why'd Joe quit?" "Yeah, hold on a second." "Check this out." "You ever seen that?" "I'm fucking fantastic." "Somebody buy me this fucking drink." "Officer Joe." "Why'd he quit?" "What?" "Why'd Joe quit?" "Because Bruno wasn't paying him." "They never paid him." "They never paid him?" "Coming from that Brazilian jujitsu background I spent time with Silva years ago before he moved into MMA and he'd showed me his secret technique his grandfather showed him." "We've been doing that since I was 12 in high school wrestling...." "We have a deal or we don't have a deal?" "He's gonna have his hands full with Morisaki, but it's gonna be great." "I don't know why everybody is not coming to this fight." "The main event for the IFA" "We got a deal." "What good's a deal if nobody's making any money?" "Ricardo won't do it." "What, he's too pure?" "What, it's not elegant?" "That elegant life he lives?" "How long's that gonna last?" "Answer me that." "Morisaki's gonna do it?" "This bullshit?" "Morisaki's a whore." "He's gonna do whatever the fuck I tell his people." "If he did this, he'll do anything." ""The gold and ivory-studded belt is worth one-quarter of a million dollars." "It was presented to Taketa Morisaki by the Emperor of Japan."" "Is he on the level?" "The belt's a fucking national treasure." "It's worth a quarter of a mil." "He's going to give it to Ricardo if he loses?" "It's publicity." "It's publicity." "It's something to tell the papers." "It's a story." ""I am a samurai, should this gaijin defeat me I will surrender my fucking belt."" "And will he?" "Look, we're not selling tickets." "Sell the tickets, sell the show and we'll figure that out on the way to the bank." "The point is you've got to sell the show." "Ricardo's the biggest in Brazil." "Read the street signs, we're in America." "Morisaki's doing his part, you've gotta do yours." "Ricardo's gotta do his." "Where the fuck is he?" "Pay-per-view is pulling back on the promotion." "We need a gimmick." "One more time." "Ricardo brings the old man up from Brazil." "He fights for the honor of his mentor." "Morisaki brings the belt." "He fights for the emperor." "What do you got?" "A grudge match." "It's back to the '30s, black against white, Irish against Jew." "A racial grudge match." "Get me some velocity." "Velocity." "Or else it's just two monkeys in the ring." "We'll speak English here in front of my friend." "Marty, this is my brother-in-law." "Mike Terry." "Could I have a word with you?" "I'm trying to do business, Mike." "What do you want?" "I gotta talk to you about money." "Money?" "Yeah." "You want money?" "Tell you what." "Fight on the undercard." "I'll put you on the undercard." "Round robin, winner takes home 50 grand." "You got a good chance to take home the money." "Fight on the undercard." "Joe Collins, the cop." "Joe Collins, the cop?" "Yeah." "Your bouncer." "He worked here several months" "All right." "All right, all right, I got it." "Did you ever pay him?" "Did I pay him?" "Yeah." "What the fuck do you care?" "Did you pay him?" "No, I heard you." "What business is it of yours?" "The guy's got a family." "What the fuck are you saying?" "This guy's got a family and I owe him some money and what?" "Is this business of yours?" "Did you pay him?" "I told him, as I recall, he would have to wait for his money." "He got hot-headed and quit." "Yeah." "This is Bruno Silva." "Put him on." "Chet Frank just walked into the bar without his wife." "Without his bodyguard." "No." "No." "Get a news crew outside and" "Who did they get the tip from?" "Some cabby driving by, the fuck do I care?" "Chet Frank just walked into my bar." "Would you call the newspapers?" "Thank you." "Thank you for stopping by." "How's my sister?" "I'll have a caipirinha." "I'll have another one too." "I'll take care of the lady's drink." "How you doing?" "Everything's a fucking struggle." "Take the high ground, huh, Chet?" "Yeah, right." "The lady thanks you." "Anything for beauty." "Nobody's tough when it comes to beauty, huh?" "Indeed." "Indeed." "My pleasure." "Excuse me." "I'd like to buy that." "She's a friend of mine." "I admire your taste." "What?" "I'm sorry, what did you say?" "I said, I admire your taste." "I heard what you said." "I don't know what it means." "All right." "What does it mean?" "Whatever you want it to mean." "I've had a tough day." "And what the fuck is that to me?" "Fucking tough guy in the movies." "Look" "Where's your protection, tough guy?" "I didn't know you knew her." "You insulted me, then you insulted the young woman." "And don't you have a wife?" "Didn't I actually read that you have a wife?" "I didn't come to fight." "I came for a drink." "Well, maybe you came to the wrong place." "You know what?" "Just calm down." "I'm calm." "You fucking calm down." "I have some ideas." "No, I don't think you do." "Oh, I don't?" "I just wanna have a drink." "How do you like that, man?" "Come on!" "Take that." "All right!" "Make a lane." "Hey, baby, you can hear me." "You can hear me." "I'm all right." "Ambulance?" "He's got a guy or something?" "I'm sure they made the call." "Hey, pal." "Why'd you come out alone, huh?" "You looking for trouble?" "He's okay." "He's all right." "They banished the professor down here, huh?" "Here you go." "I thought Joey was on the door." "Nope." "Hey, Mike." "Hey, Lenny." "What the fuck happened?" "I don't know." "Some kind of bar fight." "Show it to me." "What are we talking about here?" "Couple of bad boys jumped on a movie star." "How about that?" "Loomis has them out at the ambulance." "What happened to them?" "Did they fall down?" "Something like that, I think." "Our friend here is all by himself." "Jesus Christ." "You got the tape." "I never threw a punch." "I'm a stone-cold victim." "What happened to the other guys?" "How would I know?" "What about you?" "Nobody knows who I am." "You didn't get the loan." "Ricardo wasn't there." "Did you ask Bruno for it?" "You didn't ask for it." "Are you afraid of money?" "You tell me how we can run your academy without money." "You tell me that so I can do it and not disturb you in your purity." "How am I gonna run my business?" "All the time you need me all the time, all of my money's going to yours." "There are some things I don't understand." "My father made money." "My brothers make money." "And you are somehow too pure." "You're too pure to compete." "It" "It weakens the fighter." "That's right." "Because a competition is not a fight." "That's correct." "And what about the fighter's family, Mike?" "What do they eat while he's being so pure?" "I have to take money from my business which is making money." "You replace the window, you can't pay your rent." "The insurance will replace the window." "You want to turn your friend in?" "Your precious friend?" "Yeah." "Your prize student?" "The policeman?" "The girl tried to kill him, and he let her go." "The girl, he'd turned her in the cops would have said it was attempted murder." "And wasn't it?" "It was an accidental discharge." "Was it?" "She's disturbed, all right?" "The girl was disturbed." "And now what?" "You're her doctor?" "She walks into your academy, you take responsibility for her crime?" "They would prosecuted her." "She would go to jail." "It would have ruined her life." "So, yes, he gave her a pass." "And you think it was noble." "The code of the warrior." "You think it's noble." "No." "I think it's correct." "Well, that's fine." "Except, as we report the wind blew in the window it was an act of God, and not covered under our specific policy." "And so until we find the money we have to live with the window boarded up." "And you tell me how that brings money into your business." "Hello." "Hi, Nikki." "Yeah." "No, I can't order the new fabric now." "No, I can't." "I can't." "Of course I'm going to reorder." "Okay." "Nikki, I'll see you in 10 minutes." "Okay?" "Okay." "Bye." "Now I have to fix the window." "Where I'm getting the cash to buy the fabric for my business without which we cannot eat?" "One moment." "Where did you get that cut?" "Thank you." "It's for you." "What is it?" "It's an invitation." "Who is it from?" "From Chet Frank." "Chet Frank?" "Yeah." "We're invited to his house for dinner tonight." "To Chet Frank's house?" "That's right." "Really?" "Where's Joe?" "Mike, tell him, what's the best weapon?" "Best weapon is a flashlight." "Tell him why." "So you can look deep in the other guy's eyes." "They had a dustup at the São Paulo last night." "Is that right?" "Two ran into a Cuisinart." "Can't believe everything." "Lenny and Loomis saw the tape." "Said it was better than Titanic." "We gonna ride, or you still getting pretty?" "I'll be right out." "Wished I was there, Mike." "Yeah." "I wish I was there too." "Hey, Mike." "You come down because of that thing?" "Thing?" "What thing?" "I got something for you." "No." "Yeah." "I don't deserve it." "It's overdue." "Belt is just symbolic." "The belt, as Snowflake says, is just to keep your pants up." "Thank you." "What thing?" "What?" "You said, am I here about the thing?" "The thing with the girl that never happened." "Thank you." "You're welcome." "Open it later." "What is it?" "Well, apparently, it's a wristwatch." "Yours?" "Whose is it?" "It's yours." "I set you up with a job with my people who apparently stiffed you." "Yeah." "You went to the club." "Why didn't you tell me they weren't paying?" "You know, I...." "Well, they paid you now." "That thing, take it and pawn it and take your wife to the mountains." "What does the black belt mean?" "That I represent the academy." "Then respect your teacher." "Hey." "What's going on?" "Who ordered this?" "Who's paying for this?" "Mr. Terry, I am heartily ashamed of what I did." "I'm so sorry." "I will, of course, make it well." "This is a check for the damage to your car." "I would like to contact the officer to thank him for what he did." "I don't know what you're talking about." "Mr. Terry, I'm an attorney." "I know what the officer did." "Out of courtesy, he refrained from actions that might have sent me to jail or to an institution." "Hey, baby." "Hey, Richard." "Who do you like in the Morisaki fight?" "One of them's gonna win." "Little word from a little bird?" "Yeah." "I don't play that." "If you did, who would you like?" "I can't help you." "You sure?" "You help me, I'm gonna help you." "A word to the wise on this fight is sufficient to put money in your pocket." "Who does it hurt?" "I can't help you, Richard." "You know as much as me." "I know as much as you." "Mr. Terry...." "As you can see I have a problem." "I have something of a problem." "Is there some way that I can help you?" "You work with the police." "I've trained the police." "And what do all the belts mean?" "The white belt is someone who walks in off the street." "Black belt is someone the teacher recognizes as fit to instruct." "In between we have blue, purple and brown." "What do you have to do to get a red belt?" "There's only one." "All right." "I'm not going to touch you." "But if you were to hold me, could I strike you?" "If you put your arms around me and held me?" "Could I strike you?" "With your knees." "If you turned your body slightly and grasped me could I strike you?" "From there?" "No." "What?" "No." "Could I strike you now?" "No." "Where can I strike you?" "Don't stand there." "An enrollment form." "Should you wish to continue your instruction." "Yeah." "I'm looking at scene 87-C." "I got it." "Well, enough is as good as a feast." "Let's take a walk." "Come on." "Excuse me, but I have to ask you, where did you get your dress?" "I made it." "Oh, she made it." "Do you cook too?" "But where did you get the fabric?" "The fabric." "I made that too." "You made that?" "Yeah." "Since I was a kid in Rio." "You made the fabric?" "Yeah." "I have a company in Brazil." "No." "I don't believe it." "I just don't believe it." "Come and sit down." "Lucy and I just wrote a book about fabrics." "Really?" "Yes." "We have a company." "She has her degree in it, in textiles." "I love this fabric." "I have some people, my family's people, in Brazil and they are the ones that" "I love this fabric." "Really?" "Yes." "I would love, if you guys want I can show you more." "I have tons of colors." "So, what is jujitsu?" "You use one fighter's strength against him?" "Yes, in a way." "You let him use his strength and you use your understanding." "So it's a form of wrestling." "Yeah." "Like we see in the mixed martial arts competitions." "Yeah, that's right." "You compete?" "No." "Because?" "Competition is weakening." "Because it's fixed." "Two guys in a ring, people betting money." "It may be fixed." "Any one fight may be fixed." "But you train people to fight." "No." "I train people to prevail." "In the street, in the alley, in combat." "The bodyguard, the cop, the soldier." "There's one rule:" "Put the other guy down." "You have to train in order to do that." "Any staged contest must have rules." "Everything has rules." "The problem is sticking to them." "Your wife." "She's a beautiful woman." "Yes, she is." "Booze." "Women." "What in this life doesn't get you in trouble?" "Turn to the side." "Everything has a force." "Embrace it or deflect it." "Why oppose it?" "How you doing?" "You healing up?" "I'm good." "Well, you're young." "So there's the neckline, the waistline..." "...and the hemline." "Right?" "Right." "So if you bring the hemline down in this direction..." "...it gives a better rhythm." "Right?" "Yeah." "Yeah." "And if your repeat on the fabric is 1 foot, let's say." "Repeat of 1 foot?" "It's too costly." "That's what I'm saying." "Not from my people in Brazil." "You can get this fabric?" "Absolutely." "I make the fabric and have it to you in a week." "Zee." "Yeah?" "He's got to be on the set in five hours." "Zena, let's let these nice people go home." "Sure, honey." "Thanks, pal." "You're welcome." "Take care of that thing for tomorrow morning." "You bet, Chet." "Movies." "We get up early in the morning like the military." "You in the military?" "Yes, I was." "I've never seen Chet socialize on a school night." "The guy saved his life." "Zena?" "Oh, thank you." "Tomorrow." "I want to see you tomorrow." "Those are all my numbers right there." "Mike." "Mike, tell them the story." "No." "They want to go to bed." "Come on, baby." "Tell them the story." "The fighters before a fight." "Three marbles." "Each fighter has a two-in-three odds of choosing the white marble." "White marble's a pass." "White marble's a pass." "What if he picks the black?" "Black marble is a handicap." "What does that mean, "a handicap"?" "You lose the use of an arm, or" "Because?" "You never know when you may be disabled." "Thank you for a beautiful evening." "Thank you for having us to your lovely home." "A fighter gets a handicap." "Do they do that in competitions?" "No." "Well, they should." "A lot of money in that." "It'd be like a reality show." "Chet wants you to come down to the set." "Can you do that?" "Yeah." "Okay." "Mike." "Over here." "Yeah, well, hold up." "Chet's a little bit late." "He's a little bit late." "What do we need to make you comfortable?" "Abby?" "Yes, Jerry?" "Get him a script." "Put him in a trailer if he wants." "Chet's running late." "Yeah, yeah, yeah." "Abby." "Abby." "Yeah, they want all the scenes up in costumes on set right now." "Will you pay attention?" "Will you pay attention?" "Come on, what are you gonna do, stab me with your purse?" "Come on!" "No, no, no." "This is bullshit!" "You gotta stab me with the fucking thing." "I'm trying, George." "Well, try harder!" "Let's go!" "Come on." "Come on, stick me." "Come on." "Come on." "You gotta make it real." "You gotta make it real." "You listening to me or am I talking to a fucking wall?" "Make it look real." "You've gotta make it look real." "Chet ain't gonna look real if you don't make it look real." "Anybody can do this fucking move." "You." "Me?" "Yeah, you." "I'm gonna show him how to do the fucking move." "Come." "Take the knife." "Ain't gonna hurt you." "It's rubber." "Mike, what the fuck are you doing here?" "I don't know." "Jerry Weiss." "You coming on the show?" "No." "He just got all wannabe." "He ask if you were in the military?" "Yeah." "You tell him what you did?" "No." "He didn't ask." "You take the fucking knife." "He's Chet." "I'm you." "You take the fucking knife and" "Well, what we have here is a wise guy." "How the fuck are you?" "I'm good." "I don't wanna take up any of your time." "No, they're shooting something else." "They're always something else to shoot." "Step in my office." "What are we shooting today?" ""Meet me, 0-dark 30, AOC."" "I never served." "I know I didn't miss anything." "But what are you gonna say?" "But how would I know?" "Fucking guy who lucked out." "Here you go, Chet." "Thanks, doll." "Yeah, I'm just a fucking guy who lucked out." "I drink too much." "I fool around." "You know how hard it is for a man to step out?" "A famous man?" "And who can you trust?" "What were you doing in the bar?" "I went in to get a drink." "Why didn't you bring your protection?" "I wanted to get into a fight." "Why didn't you fight him, then?" "I wanted a beating." "What, are you a psychiatrist?" "No, I'm a fighter." "If that ain't strong enough, you tell me." "Thanks, babe." "What are we shooting today?" "Gulf War flashback." "That's right. lt's not my department but what are these numbers doing on my boot?" "If the guy had been in combat, they'd be worn off." "The sizes would be worn off, right?" "It's not the sizes." "No?" "Guys in the desert, they'd ink their number in the platoon on their boots." "That way, if their legs got blown off or their bodies got blown apart somebody in their platoon would know who it was." ""0-dark 30." "AOC."" "What does AOC mean?" ""Ass on curb."" ""Ass on curb."" "That's good." "Is that something a guy would say?" "He might. lt's old army." "World War II." "Maybe the guy learned it from the guy." "It's good." "Yeah?" "Are you free tonight?" "You, me and Jerry." "I wanna meet over at Fiori's after we wrap." "I wanna make you a co-producer on this film." "Yeah, hey." "This is Mike Terry." "Yeah, George Koriani asked me to send him some materials." "Yeah." "I found it." "Do you want me to fax it to you?" "Okay." "I'm gonna fax it." "I'm gonna have dinner with Jerry and Chet tonight." "Yeah, okay." "Okay." "They wanna put it in the movie." "Put what in the movie?" "It's Desert Storm." "It's a bunch of combat." "George is doing this." "George is doing the stunts." "George is doing the stunts?" "Yeah." "Then why do they want you for?" "They want me to be a producer." "What does that mean?" "To begin with, they wanna use my training idea." "Gulf War." "They're training for hand-to-hand." "The captain in the film, he's training the guys using my training method." "Sondra Terry." "Lucy, hi." "Yes." "Yes." "I'll be right out." "Yeah, yeah, I'm bringing the sample." "Okay, bye." "Sorry, babe." "You were saying?" "They want me to be a producer." "I'm gonna head out to the set, and then I'm gonna go to dinner with" "What?" "What?" "Who's gonna take the beginners class?" "Baby." "Let the wheel come around." "Just let it come around." "Sometimes you can just let the wheel come around." "I can't just cancel the class." "What message does that send?" "Baby, you made Joe a black belt." "Right?" "And so he's qualified to uphold the honor of the academy." "Let him teach the class." "Okay?" "Okay?" "Let him teach the class." "Okay." "Let the wheel come around." "Good for you." "Good for you." "I gotta go." "See you later, okay?" "They're gonna take me in their company." "Yeah, this is Mike Terry." "Yeah, did you get the fax I just sent you?" "Okay, good." "I'm gonna go through the whole script here." "Yeah." "It's all about authenticity." "Am I supposed to meditate?" "No." "Just sit for a moment." "All right." "I don't understand." "The first step is the hardest." "And what is the first step?" "To leave the outside outside." "I think I've come to the wrong place." "I'm so sorry." "Conquer your fear, and you'll conquer your opponent." "Yes." "Mr. Terry a man raped me." "He held a knife to my throat, a man twice my size."
