"I'm gonna share the information with the competition, the ones I haven't already killed." "Anything they don't take from you, I will." "First, I'm gonna take your trophy wife." "Then I'm gonna take your trophy children." "I'm gonna leave you with nothing." "When I'm done, you won't even be a memory of a memory." "But that doesn't have to happen." "What do you want?" " I wanna know what's in the safe." " What safe?" "The safe the girl gave me the combination to." "That safe." "$30 million." "The kid was on her way to get a second number." "What's in the second safe?" "Something worth $30 million." "To whom?" "No idea." "That's 'cause you're only half smart, Emile." "So here's the deal." "You tell me where the first safe is, I take the money and let your boy go." "Lie to me and your world ends." " You have my word on that." " Idiot." "I know when a man is working alone, and you're as alone as one can be." "You need a small army to get near that safe." "The kind of army I have." "Had." "It's been shrinking by the minute." "Last chance before I hang up and go to work on your son." "You going to kill me, garbage man?" "You could have taken us out that day, couldn't you?" "But you just sat there." "Let us ruin you." "Let us make you nothing." "I guess finding out about that safe gave you new motivation, eh, garbage man?" "I wouldn't spend my time talking if I were you." "I'd spend it praying that when this is over, that little girl's still alive." "(GRUNTS)" "Pray." "(CELL PHONE RINGS)" "CHANG:" "When and where?" "ALEX:" "The underpass, under the bridge, one hour." "I'm sorry I pointed a gun at you when the Russians attacked us, Mei." " It was. .." " Business." "I know." "That's good." "It's good you understand." "We're going to get this done." "And you'll be safe with me and Uncle Han." "I promise to be a better father to you than the one who left you and your mother." "There's no one in the world who cares more about you." "You know that, don't you?" "LUKE:" "Well, the gang's all here." "Almost." "Reddick have to call in sick?" "He's in the hospital, dickhead." "You broke his trachea." "I didn't know a trachea could break." "I hope they can fix it." "Yeah, how about I fix you, you..." "MEARS:" "Hey!" "Hey!" "Hey!" "Not here." "Been a while, Luke." "Can't say I've missed you." "So let's get down to business." "Did you bring what I asked for?" " Toscani's." " WOLF:" "Where else?" "Mmm." "That's good." "I've been in restaurants all night." "All I got served was lead." "Anyone got a light?" "You know what?" "Screw this." "Look, Cap, you asked us to come here, so we came, but I ain't gonna sit here and listen to this scumbag's big mouth." "Shut up, Kolfax." "Still haven't quit, huh?" "Hey." "Hey, what the hell is that?" "Combination to the safe with 30 million bucks in it." "LASKY:" "Whoa, whoa, whoa." "What the hell?" "KOLFAX:" "You filthy piece of shit." "The only place it exists now is in here." "Remember that next time your little trigger finger gets itchy." "Why would Han Jiao stash it right in the middle of Chinatown's busiest gambling den?" "Because of sleaze-bucket cops like you, Benoit, who collect off of Chinatown's busiest gambling den." "Where else would he have surrounded with dozens of armed men without attracting police attention?" "Captain, why do we know this son of a bitch is on the level, huh?" "He's a bum." "Where do you get your information?" "There's an exchange happening tonight." "The triad half of the deal is in a safe in the casino." "No way I could get to it on my own, so I called on you, my old pals." "$30 million split six ways is still a lot of money." "We're risking a lot, Captain." "You especially." "Everybody knows you got a bright future." "Promised by who?" "His Honor?" "What carrot is he teasing you with, Wolf?" "He's gonna let you off the street knowing what you know now?" "KOLFAX:" "Hey, what's that supposed to mean?" "Meaning his second term is gonna come to an end and his hold on the city goes "poof."" "Just like that, he's Joe Citizen again." "$30 million would be a nice retirement package." "What's he giving the chinks?" "If I knew that, I wouldn't be standing here with you assholes, would I?" "(SIGHS) Bright future, huh?" "Big headlines." ""Hero cops take down New York City's biggest underground gambling operation."" "Five million bucks apiece that no one will ever know about, just to give it that extra sweet taste." "All right, who's been in there?" " For Christ's sake, who's been in there?" " Me, Cap." "You two, you're on point." "The place is packed with civilians." "So exercise some judgment." "Remember, I got the combination." "You want that money, watch my back." "Where you going?" "(PEOPLE SCREAMING)" "Don't move!" "Stay!" "(DANCE MUSIC PLAYING)" "(PEOPLE SCREAMING)" "Out of the way." "Move!" "Hey, you!" "Settle down." "(GROANING)" "This way." "Let's go!" "(SHOUTING IN MANDARIN)" " (GUNSHOTS) - (PEOPLE SCREAMING)" "Jesus!" "Heads up!" "Go!" "WOLF:" "Kolfax, take him out!" "Cover him!" "Open it!" "Take it." "(GROANS) Oh, shit!" "KOLFAX:" "Oh, shit, I gotta get out of here." "Fuck!" "Fuck, Captain." "God damn, shit!" "Shoot a man in the back, you son of a bitch!" "All right, Mears." "Where're we going?" "This way." "Move!" "(SPEAKING MAN DARIN)" "(SPEAKING MAN DARIN)" " WOLF:" "The gates of paradise." " Locked and bolted to sinners like us." "Yeah, well, let's not wait for an invitation." "(BEEPING)" "All right, you bastard." "Get started." "Here's how we do this." "You put down your guns." "I open the safe." "You wanna shoot me, go ahead." "Make your minds up quick, 'cause the real cops will be here soon." "On the floor." "Come on, you son of a bitch, what are you trying to pull?" "I got right-left switched." "It's gonna open." " Fuck!" " You'll live." "Left 26." "(SIRENS WAILING)" "OFFICER:" "Captain Wolf, what the hell happened in here?" "What do you think happened, huh?" "We had a raid on the place go bad." "We got dead cops, casualties." "Get in there, will you?" "Captain Wolf, you need an ambulance." "I need a fleet of ambulances, all right?" "Call it in, will you?" "I'll take my own busted ass to the hospital." "Not bad." "If you weren't such a double-dealing asshole, I could almost like you." "Almost." "Drive." "(GRUNTS)" "It's a scratch." "I'm not gonna kill you, but I didn't say I was putting you up at the Ritz." "(CELL PHONE RINGS)" "Wolf." "LUKE ON PHONE:" "I have your money, Danny." "What?" "LUKE:" "You heard me." "30 million, in 5,000 and $1,000 bills." " I wanna talk..." " No." "No, what you wanna do is calm down" " so we can talk like adults." " Shut it, Danny." "I wanna talk, but I don't wanna talk to you." "I wanna talk to your boyfriend." "(CELL PHONE RINGS)" " This is Alex." " LUKE:" "It's been a while, Alex." "How'd you get this number?" "Come on, Alex." "Reach up the mayor's ass, there you are." "(LAUGHS)" "A man's got to do what a man's got to do, huh?" "Well, he's a better catch than Annie was anyway." "I never understood how you hooked up with a cow like that." "Yeah, it was never about her looks." "It was her sense of humor." "She's not so funny now, is she?" "No, she's not, neither am I." "I have the money, Alex." "I had to kill a lot of people to get it, so listen up." "You haven't made the combination exchange yet." "What's in the other safe?" "A disk." "Names, money trails." "When our commanders sent the two of us to help Danny clean up the city, they attached a price." "In exchange, Danny looked the other way while the assets seized from every group deemed a terrorist organization were funneled into their private accounts." "It's amazing what people let you get away with when they're scared and wanna feel protected, huh?" "Amazing how many scumbags there are out there waiting to take advantage of it." " (LAUGHS) Like you didn't." " I quit." "I bet that helps all those souls you sent to meet their maker without due process rest a whole lot easier." "You thought you could atone by climbing into a cage and allowing yourself to get beaten to a pulp?" "Don't fucking preach at me, Luke." "I'm getting paid for services rendered." "Right." "You sell the disk to the Chinese so they can blackmail our old honchos, take the 30 mil and waltz off with Danny to a villa in the Bahamas." "ALEX:" "Bali, but whatever, right?" "So now you know." "Now what?" "LUKE:" "Now you're dealing with me." " All right, I'm turning around." " No, you're not." "What are you talking about?" "You got the money." "The Chinese have nothing I care about." "No, they have something I do." "(SPEAKING MAN DARIN)" "Give the girl the combination to your safe and she will give you our number." "We go to your location." "You go to ours." "When we've gotten the disk, we will explain the code and you get the cash." "That's the deal." "Let's hear it." "It's a very long number." "You'll want to write it down." "Thank goodness I brought a pen, huh?" "You might want to close your eyes." "Have it your way." "(NECK SNAPS)" "Come on, Luke." "LUKE:" "The old place." "Just you and me." "You're a friend of Luke?" "Not as far as you're concerned." "TV REPORTER:" "The violence that has rocked the city tonight continued in a bloody gun battle in a Chinatown nightclub less than an hour ago." " This is really getting out of hand." " You think?" "Thanks for that insight." "Your Honor, Alex Rosen is on your private line." "He says that it's urgent." " WOMAN:" "Excuse me, Your Honor..." " I'll be back in five." "Don't bother me now." "Why didn't he call me on my cell phone?" "I thought I told you to put all my calls through to the..." "I always told you this place had lousy security standards." "Well, that's because nobody's been crazy enough to come in here and pull a stunt like this." "You got some balls, Luke." "Yeah, amazing I can even walk." "The disk." "What, you think I'm stupid enough to let a gang of Chinese walk up the front steps and collect it from me in my living room?" "It's in a safe far away from here." "I don't think you're stupid, which is why I don't for a second believe you'd give away the only copy." "I'm gonna meet Alex." "First you're gonna give me the disk, or I'll put bullets in places that won't kill you, but it will make you spend the rest of your life wishing I had." "Satisfied?" "I wanna make sure it's not Abba's Greatest Hits." "Alex will kill you, you know?" "Yeah, probably." "(CHUCKLES) Jesus, Luke, you look like hell." "Just alcohol, lack of sunlight, sleep deprivation." "Other than that, I feel great." "Yeah, I was thinking, how many bodies did we dump in this place, huh?" "You know, I didn't keep count." "They were all assholes, though, right?" "(COCKS GUN)" "Let her go, Alex." "Danny called." "Told me about your visit." "I have to admit, even I didn't see that one coming." "You had the disk and the money." "What is she to you?" "Life." "Well, enjoy it while it lasts, 'cause she's the reason yours is gonna be a whole lot shorter." "Money, Luke." "In the car." "Or in a bank." "Or in a series of lockers in Grand Central." "Or maybe I donated it to charity out of the goodness of my heart." "If you wanna find out where that money is, you're gonna have to do it the hard way." "(GUNSHOTS)" "Are you all right, Mei?" "I saw him fight before." "Bad business for you." "Yeah, the worst." "You saved me again." "We save each other." " (GRUNTS)" " I know how you feel." "Help me get this sack of garbage out of the car." "Make sure he gets to his daddy safe and sound." "Fifty grand." "For your trouble." "Might not seem like much, but at least you're gonna live to enjoy it." "You want him safe and sound after what he did to you?" "LUKE:" "For her sake." "We meet again, all bets are off." "(MEI SPEAKING MANDARIN)" "(SPEAKING MAN DARIN)" "Watch where you're fucking going, man!" " Keep walking, pal." " Excuse me?" "Pardon me?" " Keep walking." " Anything?" "This is fucking New York City!" "Bank number five." "How many more?" "That's it." "We got copies of the disk in security boxes all over the city." "Anything happens to us, a lot of important people are gonna be very sorry, our security." "Good business for us." "What now?" "Now we get out of town." "Mei, you're a kid, and I'm not sure I could be a good father." "I think that ship has sailed." "I don't want no more fathers." "Will you be my friend?" "Till my dying day" "I've got info on a school for gifted kids up in Seattle." "It's a nice drive if you like trees and shit." "Are we safe?" "One day at a time, Mei." "One day at a time."
