"This money will help us survive." "Thanks, but I don't want anything from you." "You should take the money and leave." "No." "You know this money will help start a new life." "We'll be able to leave." "Oh, really?" "For where?" "Wherever we want." "We'll just leave." "We'll settle some place." "We'll start a family." "You'll be a great father, I'm sure of it." "How many kids would you like?" "Three?" "Four?" "How 'bout six?" "Stop it, allah." "Where were you for two years?" "How come you never tried to call?" "I'm sorry." "I told you everything I did." "Really?" "You've confessed to everything?" "And nothing!" "Has he been screwing you these two years?" "Please." "Give me a chance." "I love you, sweetheart!" "Aliah!" "Whooo!" "Boo." "Huh." "We need to go far away." "And for that we'll need money, you don't have any..." "Even for flying." "Hey, allah, I brought you a present." "It's in here." "Thanks." "Come on in." "You didn't need to bring me a present." "I told you that." "Hope you like them." "It cost a lot." "Forgive me." "You know what's weird?" "When I'm with you i feel like everything will work out." "I really envy you." "You've always had an optimistic vision about things." "Even when we were kids." "I wish I did." "Hey." "So... that's the whole story." "Okay, I've got it." "You can rely on me." "We'll be leaving tomorrow." "You know where you're going?" "You like it?" "A lonely sailboat." "Like a lonely person." "Do you really think you need to leave?" "Fly away." "Drive away." "Or sail away." "Sailing away is possible." "An old fried of mine gave me that picture." "Buksir?" "You remember?" "You were only a little boy when we took that trip many years ago." "He's a former customs officer." "Retired." "Yes." "He lives in a little place." "Where else could he live, but by the edge of sea." "After all those years guarding the border, he feels there should be a border for goods, but not for people." "He lives pretty much the way he wants." "I wrote his number down." "I'll tell him you'll call." "He'll get us a boat?" "You have no other way out." "There's always a way out." "Yes, Mr. Lou." "Mussa." "Look out your window." "You see anything?" "No." "That means I'm still waiting for an answer to my question." "Idon'tneed torepeatmyself." "Do I?" "No." "You'll have your answer in the morning." "Her husband walks in just when I'm about to come." "Bad luck." "Everyone stay awake, i got to go take a piss." "Like a race horse." "You can stop right there." "Put the briefcase down." "Now, step back." "I've brought everything as we agreed." "What's this bullshit?" "Hey, screw off." "Get out of here." "You really brought it?" "I'm confused." "Why the hell did she pick you?" "We have an agreement." "I return the money, and then you let us both go." "In a minute no one's gonna remember..." "What the agreement was." "No need for the guns." "We got this." "Grandpa's about to have a world of hurting." "We had an arrangement." "I promised mussa..." "I promised khazar..." "Sue me." "And my boys are gonna take care of you." "Oh, shit!" "Come on, let's go." "Hey, sorrow." "Get in here." "We're coming." "We're coming." "Don't turn around." "Put the weapon down." "You should've kept your word." "Take the case and get out of here." "Go on, red, help him." "He wiped out everybody." "Drop the gun." "Which one do I put it in?" "What do you mean?" "I mean, which car?" "There's ours and the one the bald guy came in." "Do I have to draw you a map?" "If you hadn't asked me, which car would you guessed, cousin?" "You know the end..." "It's who's still standing that counts." "Friends are nothing." "It's about money, weapons and power." "You're forgetting something." "No, you're forgetting something." "Anyone can be bought if you know the price." "So, tell me..." "What did you have to come up with to conquer the heart of stone?" "How much?" "Arman, you can't buy love with money." "Hey, sorrow." "Who beat the shit out of you?" "What the fuck!" "What the fuck!" "What the fuck!" "What the hell happened here?" "If I leave you guys for five seconds everything falls apart?" "Son of a bitch!" "Son of a bitch!" "Who the fuck did this?" "Now, what am i supposed to tell arman?" "Who did this?" "Who?" "Sl... slick." "So, that's it?" "That's it." "You need to kill them." "And the girl..." "Before mussa finds her." "Oh, I'm getting hungry." "Where's the package?" "It's in the trunk." "Hello, boss." "Baha." "Come on, let's pull over now." "We're not in a big hurry now." "You're feeling better?" "Yeah, I'm good." "Are you hungry at all?" "We need to get far away from these guys." "Come on, you have to admit, that's a pretty smart idea." "Yeah, I guess." "I'm gonna split you open, baby." "I'm gonna split you open wide." "Wide." "You fuck with me?" "Always a heart of stone." "What about that place?" "You wanna stop there?" "What is it, boss?" "What?" "What's the matter?" "Boss?" "Where the fuck is it?" "Where the fuck is it?" "Where is it?" " I'll cut you into pieces, you fucking piece of shit." "Where the fuck is it?" "You dumb..." "What you fuck?" "What you fuck?" "What you fuck?" "What you fuck?" "You piece of shit!" "You piece of shit!" "You piece of shit!" "Where is it?" "Fuck you!" "I want a fucking reason." "I want a fucking reason." "Get away from me." "Shut up!" "So, why'd you do that?" "I thought you were going to give it back, so I got up and switched them." "You kept sleeping." "I'm going to buy some snacks." "Call buksir."
