"By JiSiN (Fixed Capital H/K problem)" "Hello, boss." " Hello." " I'm out." "Somebody followed me." "We had a deal." "It's supposed to happen tomorrow." "I told you, I work alone." "You are alone." "Then who followed me?" "Huh?" "He knew who I was." "Kawamura's going to the press in the morning." "There's no time to get anybody else." "Now, Benny, if something was wrong, you'd tell me, wouldn't you?" "Of course!" "I'll call you." "Rain!" "I found him." "Kawamura's going to the press in the morning." "There's no time to get anybody else." "Now, Benny, if something was wrong, you'd tell me, wouldn't you?" "Of course!" "I tell you everything." "Listen, do this job, then walk away." "Retire, just like you said." "I'll call you." "That came in late last night." "Now this is 12 months old, but as you can see he hasn't changed." "Because of the potential threat he poses, the powers that be have given us open access to all CCTV footage available." "All right, let's get everybody up to speed." "John Rain:" "United States citizen," "American mother, Japanese father;" "Joined the military from high school;" "At 27, began working covert operations" "Afghanistan, Iraq, South America;" "Spent the last 18 months of service training Navy SEALs." "There's nothing this man doesn't know." "Why is he of interest?" "Eight weeks ago he showed up in North Korea." "We have no idea why he was there, but until proven otherwise, we're to assume he's working for the other team." "Now the person mentioned on that tape is Yasuhiro Kawamura." "He's a lifetime bureaucrat and senior official for Japan's construction ministry." "He made news last year for reporting back to work the day after receiving a pacemaker." "Over the last couple of months, he's been gathering privileged information that could seriously undermine the Japanese and American governments." "Our source tells us that he plans to download and hand over that information today." "And that's where we take him, at the exchange." "What's he planning?" "Media, police, the highest bidder-- we don't know." "But if John Rain gets that information, it could end up anywhere." "Now I want our top people on this: surveillance teams, location and building blueprints, ground units." "And utilize every closed-circuit TV unit in downtown Tokyo." "He's the target." "Now we stay with Kawamura, we will find John Rain." "All right?" "Let's do it." "Does the building have underground access?" "Only in the parking lot, sir, and it's completely contained." "Does anybody see John Rain?" "Not yet, sir." "Anything?" "Well, keep looking!" "Good morning." "Good morning, sir." "What's that?" "A pacemaker." "The same one I had yesterday." "I'm sorry." "He's new." "Never mind." "Oh." "I just remembered..." "I left my key card at home and I need to pick up some material" "I left in the data room yesterday." " Can I use your key?" " To the data room?" "ls that a problem?" "No, sir." "But you'll have to leave your bag here." "Sure." "Thank you." "Ken, what do you got?" "Still nothing." "Rooftop, what do you got?" "Negative." "I'll walk." "I need the exercise." "He's moving." "Hold your positions." "If he sees anything strange, he'll abort." "He's turning east." "Unit 1, he's heading for the subway station." "Continue pursuit on foot." "Good." "Good." "Stay with him, Kenny." "Stay with him." "Not too close!" "Not too close!" " Do you hear me?" " Yes, sir." "Rooftop, anything on Rain?" "Still nothing." "He's going by a subway entrance sign." "C2!" "I repeat, subway entrance C2!" "Stay with him, Kenny." "Stay with him!" "What the fuck is he doing?" "He's stopping." "He knows!" "He knows!" " Walk away, Kenny!" "Walk away!" " Yes, sir." "Give me an angle on Kawamura!" "Give me an angle!" "Do we have a camera in there?" "Does it have a rear exit?" "Well, can you find out?" "Jesus Christ!" "Get me something in here!" "There he is!" "He's coming your way, Ken." "You see him?" "I'm on him, sir." "Stay with him, stay with him." "Unit 1, what's your distance?" "He's right behind me." "Good good good." "Stay clean." "Stay clean." " Unit 1, asset has your grid." " Yes, sir." "He will join the train at the next station." "Advise asset:" "target is on the last car." "And everybody be clear:" "we take him on exchange." "Yes, sir." "Hey, loop the last few seconds." "He's on the same car!" "Rain is on the same car!" "He's on the same car!" "Ken!" "Talk to me!" " He made me." " Kawamura?" "Rain." "Hold your position." "Asset closing." "Ken, asset's at your door on arrival." "What's going on?" "What the fuck is happening?" "Reappoint the asset to take out Rain." " Why?" "How can you be" " Are you watching this?" "Everybody knows Kawamura has a heart problem." "I don't care about him!" "I want the stick, and Rain is just about to take it!" "Do it!" "Are you okay?" "Take him down." "Call an ambulance!" "Kenny, Kenny, Kenny, where are you?" "Kenny, what are you waiting for?" " Take him out!" " There's too many people." "Take the shot!" "Jesus!" "Somebody tell me what just happened." "Where's John Rain?" "Somebody talk to me." "We lost him, sir." "How about the stick?" "You get the stick?" "It's gone, sir." "Unbelievable." "The rich get richer and I live in a dump." "Police!" "Anybody home?" "If there's nobody there..." "I'm coming in." "I need to change my job." "You-- you screwed up!" "You got on the wrong end of the car!" "And then when you had the shot, you're fuckin' frozen!" "No, I didn't have the shot!" "There were too many people!" "You take the shot because I tell you to take the fucking shot!" "I made" " I made the right decision!" "I give the orders!" "What do you want me to say?" "I don't want you to say anything!" "Just find the stick." "Yes, sir." "We've checked Kawamura's house, his car, his office, and still no sign of anything." "What are we missing?" "Maybe there never was a memory stick." "So we just close our eyes and hope it doesn't show up." "ls that what you're saying?" "We saw Kawamura die on the train." "Our men were right there." "He had nothing on him." "If he was innocent and he didn't have the stick, where was he going?" "He was going to meet his contact to tell him he couldn't do it." "Why wouldn't he just call?" "Too risky." "For a guy who was carrying nothing, why was he so nervous?" "I don't know." "How long has John Rain been back in Japan?" "He arrived about a month after you went to Langley, but he's managed to stay under the radar." "How good is he?" "He's good enough to kill Kawamura on a crowded train, make it look like a heart attack and then vanish." "If there is a stick out there, he'll find it." "So how do we handle this?" "We eliminate risk." "lsn't that what we're paid to do?" "They knew where Kawamura was going-- what time, which train." "They're after the memory stick." "He wasn't carrying anything." "Did you check his pockets?" "All of them." "He had nothing." "That's why everybody's still looking for it." "Well, he didn't have it." "And I haven't got it." "Last week, a reporter I know called me, always fishing for something." "Japanese?" "Foreign, but based here in Tokyo." "He said he'd heard a rumor about Kawamura." "What kind of rumor?" "He wouldn't say." "But now Kawamura's dead..." "I know." "Who were the other guys?" "You won't believe me." "I heard they were CIA." "What?" "You heard me." "It's a pleasure to speak to you." "I wish it was under better circumstances." "Yamamoto told me everything." "And I agree with him." "I assure you, we are doing all we can." "Let's get this straight-- no matter what the cause, the death of a high-ranking minister will lead to rumors and speculation." "With three deaths in 14 months," "Yamamoto's contacts are losing trust in him." "Do you understand?" "Yes, Governor." "I hope to hear good news from Yamamoto very soon." "I'll do everything I can to get these cases solved." "Very good." "Your support is greatly appreciated." "Please visit my home sometime." "That sounds great." "Send in Tatsu." "ls this the lobby of the Grand Hotel?" "Yes, I can tell by the chandelier." "And this?" "Park View Hotel." "Do you just hang around hotels in your spare time?" "I had dinner with my wife there." "The lobby was amazing." "When I eat at hotels," "I'm usually amazed by the price." "Locations should be printed on the photos." "It's that new guy, Tonami." "He's too busy fixing his hair to worry about work." "Why can't kids today get normal haircuts?" "Nowadays with hair, the cool thing is to look like you're moving, even when you're standing still." "Whatever." "I just don't get it." "What?" "Shimizu choked to death while eating." "That's right." "Ishikawa... overdosed on sleeping tablets." "What's your point?" "Shimizu checked into a hotel alone and died there." "Ishikawa did the same thing." "So?" "Of all the nights to choke or accidentally overdose... why was it the night they were alone?" "lnvestigation Division." "The boss wants to see you." "Okay." "What are you thinking?" "I don't know yet." "They died of natural causes." "How about him?" "Heart attack." "CCTV cameras captured this yesterday." "Yamamoto's men." "What are known criminals doing in the car park of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department?" "Yamamoto was hoping we'd have some answers by now." "Three ministers die in 14 months, all of natural causes." "And he wants a suspect?" "They were his top inside people." "So what?" "They might have been murdered." "There's no proof of any wrongdoing." "Which is why you have to find something." "You mean find real evidence or invent something?" "You know what pisses me o_?" "Everybody knows that Yamamoto bribes officials, but we have to turn a blind eye." "Not only that, we also have to abide by a code of conduct that gives scum like him leverage over us." "Deputy Chief, tell me, how is that fair?" "It's the way it is." "That's bullshit!" "It's time you woke up." "There are things we can't control." "When I was at Interpol, there was this guy who thought he was above it all." "The best day in my life was the day that we kicked the shit out of him." "For one day," "I could hold my head up high." "We need a conviction, preferably today." "You would think that after 35 years this would get easier." "I'll do my best." "Thank you, Tatsu." "Until this is over, check your car before driving it." "Excuse me, sir." "We have a reported sighting of John Rain in the vicinity of Minister Kawamura's house." " How long to get a unit there?" " There's one on the way." " Are they on?" " Yes, sir." "All right, listen up." "You must detain the target." "You take him down if you have to but, don't kill him." "To bring in the stick, I need him breathing." " Copy that." " And one more thing:" " no witnesses." " Yes, sir." "We have video surveillance of Kawamura's house?" " No, sir." " Do we have sound?" " No, sir." " Come on." "Come on!" " How long?" " 60 seconds, sir." "Please..." "Your life's in danger." "It's to do with your father-- something he might have given you." "Stay away." "John Rain and Kawamura's daughter, a potential witness." "I'm going around the back." "It's okay." "My father wanted to make things right." "I know." "John Rain plus one witness." "What's the order, sir?" "I want John Rain alive." "I repeat:" "I want John Rain alive." "Unit 1, what's your status?" "Unit 2, come in." "Send out a clean-up unit." "I want that place turned around in 45 minutes." "Yes, sir." "This is it." "He got off the train around there." " Here?" " Prem much." "So he was facing this way?" "More to your left." "Here." "Like that." "Could we see the recorded tapes?" "Of course." "Was he famous?" " Who?" " The man that died." "No." "Why?" "Because this is the third visit from the police." " Third?" " Yes." "So... you'll get us the footage, right?" "I'll personally deliver it." "Thank you." "Thank you for your trouble." "Does Rain have the stick?" "I don't think so." "Don't give me uncertainty." "It's either yes or no." "No." "If he doesn't have the stick then he knows too much." "We finish him... tonight." "How?" "Let me worry about that." "Hey." "Take over." "Tell me you found the memory stick." "Someone got there before us." "And he jumped us." "How about the daughter?" "She's dead." "Do whatever you have to do, just find that stick." "Yes, sir." ""BLUE SMOKE Jazz Bar, starring Midori Kawamura - 9:30 P.M."" "Ladies and gentlemen," "Ms. Kawamura will be back after a short break." "Um, excuse me." "My name's Miyakawa from "Jazz Swing."" " What a pleasure." " Wonderful performance." "Thank you very much." "I would like to feature Midori in our magazine." "I don't have much time." "Could you introduce me?" " Just a second." " Thank you very much." "You were great!" "Thanks." "There's a reporter who wants to meet you." "Could be good publicity." "After the show?" "He said he has to go soon." "Tell me... is he cute?" "I'll bring him in." "She'll be happy to see you." "Please." "Excuse me." "This is the reporter;" "Midori Kawamura." "Nice to meet you." "Two minutes." "Actually I'm not a reporter." "Your life is in danger." "You have to leave immediately." "What are you...?" "Who are you?" "You have to believe me." "Why should I?" "You lied to get in here." " We don't have time." " Hello?" "I'm a big fan of yours." "Could I get your autograph?" "Let's go." "Hurry up!" "Can we get out up here?" "I've never been this way before." "He's coming!" "Hurry!" "Hurry up!" "Who sent you?" "You tell me." "I've always wanted to know that." "Let's go." "Yeah?" "Rain and the girl, they got away." "Shit." "Shit!" "I'll call you in the morning." "Fuck!" "Hey." "Come over here." "Move away from the camera." "I said move away from the camera." "Don't touch me!" "I asked you nicely." "Look at this roof." "See how big it is?" "Why do you have to go there?" "Why do I have to listen to you?" "I don't even know you." "You drag me around all night long, then expect me to obey you?" "Do you have any idea how much danger you're in?" "I'm trying to help you." "Like you helped my sister?" "Did you help my father too?" "I read a lot." "You know that?" "I know how stories end by how they begin." "What are you talking about?" "Let me tell you how this one ends." "I already know." "It ends with you being murdered." "And it could happen at any moment." "Where are you going?" "I'm hungry." "You haven't eaten." "I don't usually eat breakfast." "What?" "You don't eat it, but you ordered it." "The police are just around the corner." "You're free to go." "Hey!" "Where are you going?" "What's wrong with you?" "I'm talking to you." "Now you're safe." "Tell them your problems." "There's just no pattern to any of his movements." "There never will be." "Send out warning notices to every place in Tokyo that offers accomodation without having to register a name-- love hotels, churches, homeless shelters, anywhere that he can keep a low profile." " Yes, sir." " All right, listen up." "We have a time-critical situation." "Every resource and every action needs to be focused on locating and apprehending John Rain." "Now he is not stupid enough to leave the country, so he must still be here." "Find him!" "Yes, sir." "Three ministers died in 14 months, all with suggested links to the yakuza." " We've been over this before." " Isn't that our job?" "So you think the stick actually exists?" "I don't know." "But something tells me those three men were killed by the same person." "If the killer could make things appear natural, nobody would really check anything." " Is it possible?" " I can't see why not." "If it were, there's a chance the killer... was on the train with Kawamura." "Maybe he could get rid of more corrupt politicians." "He'd have to work overtime." "Like us!" "Call them off." "You have to call your people off." "I don't know what you're talking about." "Why, you know exactly what I'm talking about." "You're telling everybody that I might have the stick." "Do you have it?" "You know damn well I don't." "Then you're no good to this operation, are you?" "Where are you going?" " See this man?" " Yes, sir." " Remove him from the building." " Yes, sir." "Come this way, sir." "I'm sorry about your sister." "I don't want to talk about it." "I saw... what you did to that man." "Who are you?" "Sometimes... people pay me to help them." "Did somebody pay you to help me?" "No." "I just thought you might be in trouble." "Because of my father?" "Yes." "I never knew anything about my father's job." "That's not what they think." " Why don't you answer it?" " Pretend it's not ringing." "What's wrong?" "Do as I say." "Say when." "I'm not sure." "Yes or no?" "No." "Pretend we're a couple." "You mean if I was at home with my sister, I'd be dead by now?" "It's so unbelievable." "I'm alive because I happened to be out." "And you better wake up by yourself if you want to stay alive." "What did you say?" "You heard me." "Of course I did." "My father died, then my sister." "Next it's me?" "Be quiet!" "People are trying to kill you." "All they think about is getting the job done." "And they only need half a chance." "If it was my job, it would have been easy money." "One minute ago, a courier walked past you." "What was he carrying?" "He was carrying large boxes." "But you didn't even see them." "Do you remember the three road workers?" "One of them had a hammer in his hand." "He couldn't take his eyes off you." "You were so busy feeling sorry for yourself, you didn't even notice him." "Do you understand how dangerous this is?" "Do you want to stay alive?" "And you want me to help you?" "Okay, let's begin." "Of the three men approaching from behind me, who might be holding a knife?" "The one in the middle." "Let's go." "There are thousands of CCTV cameras in Tokyo." "But without knowing where we are, it will take them at least six hours to identi_ us from footage." "So we have to keep moving... make sure we never use the same street, subway entrance... or convenience store." "They'll be looking for us all over... especially places that require no registration:" "churches... love hotels... and everyday common places." "Everybody looks suspicious when you're being chased." "Are they reaching for a cell phone, or something else?" "You always feel guilty." "You feel they know your secret." "Do you walk away, hold, or take them down?" "And one last thing:" "if you hear a siren or see the police, just keep going." "Act natural... and everything will be okay." "This is my hiding place." "Please close the door." "It's been empty for 10 months." "Looks more like 10 years." "Will I have to... sleep here?" "What's wrong with it?" "You can't see for yourself?" "When you're tired, it'll look great." "I can't wait." "Anyway, I have a surprise for you." "Really?" "Yes." "Close your eyes." "Keep them closed." "Hurry." "Put your hands out." "It's a gun." "Rule number one:" "even if you're angry, don't shoot me." "Two:" "understand how the safety works." "To fire, turn the safety off." "Unless you're in danger, have the safety on." "Right." "Now point it to the floor... and pull the trigger." "ls the safety on?" "Do it." "Two more rules:" "I have to go out for a few hours." "When I come back, I'll knock two times, wait two seconds, then I'll knock two more times." "Repeat what I just said." "You'll knock twice, wait two seconds, then knock twice again." "Right." "What's the last rule?" "If a bad guy comes, kill him." "Hold it!" "Right there." "ls he reaching into Kawamura's pocket?" " It's hard to tell." " Loop it again." "It's a waste of time." "You can go home if you want." "I think we should call Kawamura's colleagues and his daughter." "Why?" "There might be someone in this footage they've seen before." "That's a long shot." "You got a better idea?" "International News Media, David speaking." " Can I speak to Thomas Perryman?" " Sure." "Perryman, call on line 3 for you." "He is out." "No, he's back." "Hey, line 3." "Thomas Perryman." "How can I help you?" "Have you found the memory stick yet?" "Sir, I don't know what you're talking about." "Yes, you do." "Kawamura was going to give it to you." "It's the only place he could have been going." "Where were you when he died?" "Well, you tell me." " Who is this, please?" " I'm on the same team as you are." "Meet me at the new gallery two blocks east of your office." "Bring whatever information you've got." "Perryman." "Casually turn to your left." "Black coat..." "beside the painting." " Do you know him?" " No." "Shift your eyes to the right." "2:" "OO... grey shirt." "Never seen him before." "Right in front of you." "No idea." "They think you have the memory stick." "I haven't bloody got it." "Pick up your bag and take the elevator to the second floor." "Okay." "Pass the paintings, to the restroom." "Go to the end stall and wait for me." "Let's go." "Think about it." "Japan has less than half the population of the United States and only 50/o of the land area, but it spends 500/o more on public works." "The Construction Ministry does whatever it wants." "And Kawamura was one of the top officials." "Yes." "He consistently got approval for projects so he and his cronies could skim from the budgeted funds." "Take a look at these." "A bridge to nowhere... a road that wasn't needed." "Why would Kawamura risk his life to tell his story?" "He was diagnosed with lung cancer 15 months ago." "I suppose he wanted to right some wrongs, you know, before it was too late." "This is Yamamoto." "He heads the yakuza-- plays the government like a fiddle and would love nothing more than to get his hands on that stick." "You can be sure those were his men today." "Look." "Only call him, you know, if you have no other options." "How about the CIA?" "What have they got to do with this?" "That stick, right, contains irrefutable evidence of corruption that was organized and carried out by top Japanese officials." "If the CIA had that information, the risk of exposure would be so high to the Japanese rank and file, they'd bow to U.S. pressures." "So they wanted to blackmail Japan's top officials?" "They-- they want to tie a noose around the entire country and squeeze it whenever they like." "American rice would be here for zero duties... as would American cars." "One of the greatest economies in the world would become a U.S. puppet." "This is as big as it gets." "The LDP, the yakuza, the CIA, the Tokyo Metropolitan Police-- they all want the information on that stick." "It'll give them more power than any government's had in this country's entire history." "You simply cannot trust anybody." "Thank you." "Okay." "Good luck." "You're still here?" "The Grand Hotel..." "The Park View Hotel, Kawamura's train..." "I already know that." "Well, how about this?" "What if this person this person and this person were all the same man?" "What proof do you have that he actually did something wrong?" "Apart from photos, we have nothing." "But I checked around." "The CIA has permission... to use CCTV footage to help them... locate this man." "His name is John Rain." "He came back to Japan three years ago." "With his profile, anything's possible." "Exactly." "You know... when we catch him," "I won't know whether to handcuff him, or... congratulate him." "He killed corrupt politicians." "We should reward him for that." "Sir?" "Looks like Rain's planning a trip." "Where?" "He purchased two tickets to Seoul, Korea, departing from Narita at 9:55 tomorrow morning." "That means check-in is 7:55." "That's correct." " What airline?" " JAL." "All right." " Let's wake everybody up." " Yes, sir." "After you." " Check-in counter." " No sign of him yet." "I want you to confirm all possible points of check-in for this flight." " Yes, sir." " Departure lounge?" "Nothing yet, sir." "There's no other way he could board this flight?" "That's correct." " There's no ground access to the plane?" " No, sir." "Departure lounge..." "I want you to check" " every person getting on this flight." " Yes, sir." "Welcome aboard." "He's okay." "We're running out of time." "Somebody-- somebody talk to me." "We're three minutes late for pushback." "Sir, they want to close the door." "Nobody closes that door until I say so, you hear me?" "Yes, sir." "Pushback has been delayed." " Arrange for a count." " Excuse me?" "I have the support of the local police and I want a complete passenger count." " You can't do that!" " I also want that plane's toilets, storage, and its cargo bays inspected, as well as full confirmation of all male flight staff." "That's not under CIA's control!" "I think a threat to national security is more important than someone's vacation!" "Check the plane!" "Check the plane!" "You want an easy time?" "You go back to Langley!" "Sir, John Rain's not onboard." "Where the hell is he?" "I forgot to tell you-- a police officer left a message on my cell." "What about?" "My father." "He wants me to look at some footage." "Footage?" "CCTV footage of the day my father died." "Where?" "I'm not sure." "Are you going to meet him?" "Maybe." "Sir, we checked all CCTV." "There hasn't been a sighting of Rain or the girl for more than 18 hours." "Let's get their profiles to every bus, rail and taxi company." " We'll do this the old-fashioned way." " Yes, sir." "He's out there." "And he has the stick." " Nothing else matters." " Yes, sir." "Where are you?" "What was your sister like?" "She was always trying to prove herself." "She wanted to... work in a cafe, but my father said it would embarrass him." "It didn't stop her, though." "When I was a kid in New York... my mother used to work in a small coffee shop." "I lost my mother when I was six." "Did your mother speak Japanese?" "A little." "Dad used to buy her textbooks." "But she was always too busy." "ln the last two years I've joined four English schools... but I always find a way not to go." "I should have studied more when I lived overseas." "Overseas?" "Where?" "The same city you were raised." "I was supposed to stay a month, but I stayed for three years." "What's your best memory?" "One night..." "I was at the Village Vanguard with friends." "A band from New Orleans was playing." "Somebody told them something... and they invited me up." "I remember it so well." "As I played, I looked around-- famous musicians, an excited audience." "And I was right there... in the middle of it all." "I want to go back there someday." "It's my dream." "You'll make it come true." "Your turn." "Huh?" "Your best New York memory?" "The apartment we lived in had this old rooftop." "That... was my favorite place." "Being the only Asian kid in the neighborhood," "I needed a good place to hide." "One day, after running from the local bullies," "I was hiding up there." "And..." "I found a kitten." "These days... I've been wondering... how that little boy" "9reW Up... to be the person I am." "Hey." "Yes." "Thank you." "For what?" "For making me feel safe." "I'm glad to hear that." "Good night." "Good night." "No!" "Good morning." "Hey." "You should see that police officer today." "You need to know the truth." "Can you come with me?" "We'll meet when you're finished." "Come on." "Let's go." "I will wait for you downstairs." "Sir, we've got him!" "What the hell is he doing?" " This is Kawamura's office." " That's right." "It's only three minutes away." "Do you want me to go?" "No." "No, I'll handle this myself." "That's 520 yen." "Here." " Thank you very much." " Thank you!" "Thank you!" "You got visual on him?" "He's heading to the station." "I can't see him." "We can't see him." "You must be able to see him." "He's in that street." "I got him!" "Turn left at the light." " Stay with me!" " Yes, sir." "Shit!" "John Rain?" "Where is she?" "I showed her a photo-- a photo of her father lying dead on the train pla_orm." "You're in it too." "What did you tell her?" "I'm a cop." "I fight against lies and corruption every day." "What do you think I told her?" "I said you were there... to protect her father." "That's what I said." "But I don't think she believed me." "What do you think happened?" "Unless I can prove it, it doesn't matter what I think." "Anyway, Kawamura had it coming." "Why don't you tell me what happened?" "A man on a crowded train had a heart attack." "I tried to save him." "That's what I saw on the tape." "I'll be in touch." "Maybe you could do some work for me." "I'm retired." "Be careful." "Yeah?" "It's me." "You're gonna have to give me more than that." "John Rain." "The elusive Mr. Rain." "Tell me, John, how did you get my number?" "It wasn't that hard." "Before you kill me, I want to thank you." "I want to thank you, because when I picked you for this job, l" " I knew you wouldn't let me down, John." "What are you talking about?"
