"I was beginning to think maybe you didn't like me anymore." "Oh, it's just like- I wanted to, but you know how it is." "Yeah." "You remember Ozu?" "Sure." "Hi, Ozu." "He just stepped up as my right-hand man ever since your extended leave of absence." "Well, well, guess it's true what they say." "Those who can, do." "Those who can't wind up in shit holes like this." "Still haven't lost your razor-sharp wit, Ozu, have you?" "Looks like you're really coming up in the world, Ridley." "Guess this is what happens when you lose your edge." "Ozu." "Wait in the car." "Sorry about that." "I don't know how you do it, Graver." "Huh." "Yes, he's still pissed about the whole-you know." "I'm sure you haven't come all the way down here to talk about this." "No, it's not." "I've got a potential client, John, big government witness." "I need the best for this job." "I don't do this anymore." "This client specifically asked for you, knows that you're the best in the business." "I'm not in the business." "You're part of the package." "Without you, I lose the account." "All right, fine." "I'm in way over my head here, okay?" "So call this what you want, a personal favor, a professional courtesy, whatever." "Just do this one for me, John." "Look, when I walked away from this three years ago, it was for keeps." "You don't mean that." "I know you." "You weren't there." "You didn't have to watch her die." "Take a good look at yourself." "You don't belong here." "You're better than this." "No, I'm not." "I'm through with it." "[chuckles]" "You always were one stubborn son of a bitch."

"I understand that John Ridley died in the alley that day, because the man who came back isn't the man I fell in love with five years ago." "I don't know who you are anymore." "You're like a stranger to me." "When you come back, don't expect to find me here." "Okay." "John, you need to work this out for yourself." "I will." "John Ridley." "I'm looking for Graver." "Training ground." "Thanks." "[explosions and gunfire]" "Be one step ahead of them at all times." "[shouting]" "[screaming]" "Ouch." "Well, well." "Seems we have a genuine celebrity joining us today." "Let's all give a warm welcome to John Ridley." "They don't make them like this anymore:" "washed-out fools who can't keep their clients alive." "That's something this man knows all about." "Isn't that right?" "You know, Ozu, if looks could kill, I would be half dead." "Go to hell." "Been there;" "done that." "Ozu!" "You have a class to teach, don't you?" "To be continued, Ridley." "I didn't think I would be seeing you again for quite some time, John." "Does that job offer still stand?" "What changed your mind?" "Let's just say I'm ready again." "Well, I can't tell you how good it is to have you back on board, John." "Okay then." "What say we go meet the client?" "Sounds like a plan." "Tell me, John, how's your Spanish?" "Probably a little rusty." "Come on." "[gunshots and explosions]" "So tell me again, why are we in Spain?" "It's not just Spain, John." "It's Barcelona." "Wow, somebody pinch me." "You gonna answer my question?" "Part of our deal with the client." "Speaking of which..." ""Lee Maxwell."" "This is all you got, no photos?" "That's it." "Feds are playing this one close to the vest." "All we know is he's a high-price contractor, international circuit, strictly freelance." "So how did they finally get him?" "They didn't." "A few weeks ago, Maxwell waltzes into the American embassy here, turns himself in." "Says he's ready to name names, dates, the works." "Just like that?" "Just like that." "So why Barcelona?" "One of the conditions for his testimony was that he be kept here until his court date." "Look, all I know is, he testifies in three days." "Your job is to keep him alive that long." "Oh, and one other thing." "Part of the deal for his testimony was that you be brought in as his personal bodyguard." "Oh, yeah." "Almost forgot." "Got a little present for you." "Wow, more surprises?" "Your guns." "Don't get any crazy ideas about actually using it." "This gets better and better." "Maxwell has flipped." "Obviously, this poses a grave threat to the organization." "So exactly what does Maxwell have on us?" "Everything." "One of our inside sources tells me he's cut a deal with the U.S. government, and he's scheduled to testify before a grand jury in three days." "We can't allow that to happen." "This matter must be dealt with swiftly and with the utmost urgency." "Lareina." "How are things progressing on your end?" "The wheels are in motion." "We should have closure within 24 hours." "I hope so, for all our sakes." "It'll be clean, no loose ends." "What about this new security guy they brought in?" "Our source on the inside assures us he won't be a problem." "I'm counting on it." "Now if there's nothing further," "I'm sure we all have other matters to attend to." "Thank you, gentlemen." "Wait a minute." "You're putting the fate of our entire operation in the hands of this broad?" "I take it you don't approve." "No, sir, of course not." "Since you see fit to question my choice..." "The one on the steps." "[screams]" "Sorry about your man." "Thank you, gentlemen." "Bon dia, senyor." "Hi." "Well, this is it." "Well, they seem to take good care of Mr. Maxwell." "Oh, yeah." "He made sure of that." "Excuse me, sir." "May I have a word with you?" " Is there a problem?" "No, no, no." "Well, there is Mr. Maxwell's, or rather, should I say the bill of Mr. Maxwell." "[laughs]" "Lobster, caviar, oysters, and two cases of Cava Reserve." "Never thought a killer could be such a prima donna." "They tailor, shoemaker, valet, and in-room masseur, sir, that will go on another bill." "If I could just have your signature?" "Sorry, you've got the wrong guy." "Uncle Sam's picking up this one." "Send him the bill." "Morning." "He's with me." "[stirring opera music]" "Aames." "So, Graver, this him?" "Agent Franklin Aames." "John Ridley." "Hi." "For the record, I think this is bullshit." "There is no way just one man's gonna cover this guy." "I don't care how good you are." "Nice to meet you too." "Excuse me." "Mr. Maxwell." "I really hope you like this music." "He hasn't stopped playing this shit since he got here." "Talking about me again behind my back, Franklin?" "Now, that's not very polite." "And you haven't even introduced me to our new guest." "I'm gonna have to take this up with your superiors." "I'm sorry, Mr. Maxwell." "Your, uh- your bodyguard is here." "Oh." "Excellent." "[sighs]" "Let me prepare myself for the big moment." "Holy shit." "You mother... fucker." "Let's all chill the hell out." "Okay?" "[beautiful choral music]" "Well, that was exciting, huh?" "Wasn't it?" "[laughs]" "Well, I think I'm gonna go clean up." "[laughs]" "Look, I'm sorry it had to go down this way, but my hands were tied." "I promised Maxwell I wouldn't say anything." "You've got every right in the world to want to kill him." "I don't blame you." "But face it." "That's not gonna happen, not now, not with the feds involved." "He knows all the names and faces of the criminal underworld, not to mention the present government who have used his services for years." "Look, I don't care what I have to do or who I have to go through." "This guy is a dead man." "Understand?" "I have no problem with that." "Excuse me?" "You're absolutely right." "The son of a bitch deserves to die." "But not just yet." "All you have to do is keep him alive for three more days." "Three days, till he testifies." "After that, frankly, nobody's gonna give a good goddamn what happens to him." "Think about it, John." "You finally got a chance to even the score." "I bet you lie awake at night just thinking about what you'd like to do to him." "Well, now's your chance." "But you got to decide now." "You don't take this job, you'll never see Maxwell again, ever." "They'll bury him so deep, even a psychic won't be able to find him." "Just think, three days from now, he's all yours." "Plus, you get a nice fat paycheck on top of it." "It's win-win all the way around." "I don't get it." "Why me?" "What does he want with me?" "Who knows how his sick mind works?" "Just play along." "Babysit his sorry ass for three days." "Then..." "So what's it gonna be, John?" "I need an answer." "Everything secure?" "Yeah, no thanks to your boy." "Ridley, a word of advice." "Now, that is government property we got in there." "In other words, his ass belongs to Uncle Sam." "You got me?" "Now, I'm gonna be right outside." "If I hear you try anything," "I'll be through that door faster than you can speed-dial your mother." "Do you understand me?" "Yeah, I just didn't think a tough guy like you would have a soft spot for a piece of shit like Maxwell." "I don't." "I'm just doing my job." "I suggest you do yours." "So you're ready to do this?" "Yeah, let's get this dog and pony show on the road." "Just try not to let him get to you." "Okay?" "Sure." "Our field offices are a couple of blocks away." "It's a private line." "Don't hesitate to use it." "What's the matter?" "You don't trust me anymore?" "[chuckles]" "Just protecting my investment." "Remember, three days." "They say crime doesn't pay." "Ridley." "It's good to see you again." "But where are my manners, right?" "Let me offer you something." "Would you like something to drink, a little local beer?" "Some wine?" "A little scotch maybe?" "You like that?" "Oh, wait." "Am I bad?" "[chuckles]" "Am I bad?" "You can't drink, right?" "That's right, no drinking on the job." "It dulls your reflexes." "Yeah." "[chuckles]" "Come on, you know, you got to relax, Ridley." "You're way too uptight." "Maybe you can't drink, but I can." "So how about you share one with me, no?" "Cheers." "Mm, it's nice." "Uh, something to eat maybe, like a little surf and turf, a little paella?" "I could have the room service set it up for you." "Here we go, some nice Cuban cigars." "How about it?" "Cuban, just for you." "Fuck it." "They'll kill you anyway, those things." "[laughs]" "Stop with the silent treatment, Ridley, huh?" "You and I, we have a lot of catching up to do." "Nothing?" "That's it?" "Well, how about some music?" "Here, a little Brahms, huh?" "Stravinsky," "Vivaldi?" "Vivaldi is powerful." "It's like the planets, the moon, stars." "No passion?" "You're gonna like this." "[uplifting strings music]" "# #" "That's nice." "Feel the passion." "[sighs]" "# # [music stops]" "I prefer hip-hop." "Don't push it, Ridley." "Don't push it." "So, Ridley, you're not serious about this hip-hop stuff?" "Shut up." "Pardon me?" "I didn't catch that." "I said shut up." "Got that?" "My God, it speaks." "What a breakthrough." "Listen, asshole, I'm only gonna say this once." "Just go over there, fix yourself another drink, and shut the fuck up." "[laughing]" "[coughing]" "[phone beeping]" "You have three seconds to hang up the phone." "Okay." "I've had enough of this game." "Let's get it over with right now, all right?" "'Cause that's what you want anyway, so here's your chance." "Go ahead." " Don't tempt me." "You think you can wait three whole days before you kill me, huh, Ridley?" "Huh?" "Let's stop prolonging the inevitable, huh?" "Come on, let's do it right now." "I'm standing right in front of you, 'cause I'm the guy." "I'm the guy who ruined your life, who killed your client, who blew her away." "Come on, Ridley." "Let's do it." "[screaming] [glass smashing]" "What the hell is going on?" "Just having a little discussion here, right?" "Yeah." "I'll be in my bathroom." "What are you, in the third grade or something?" "Grow up already." "Graver said you're a pro." "Maybe you ought to start acting like one." "Yeah, that guy just knows how to push my buttons." "I hear that." "Truth be told, he had me jumping through a few hoops too." "I got to admit," "I came very close to punching him out a couple of times, but come on." "There is a line." "Ridley, suck it up." "Bite the bullet, and when this is all over and done, you go take a vacation and drink heavily." "What the fuck?" "He took the fire escape." "He's gone." "Check the hotel." "All teams, I want an immediate room-to-room sweep of all floors." "Elvis has left the building." "I repeat, Elvis has left the damn building." "[tires squealing]" "Capullo!" "[horn honks]" "Excuse me." "Sorry." "Hola?" "Catherine?" "Quien es?" "It's me." "What do you want?" "Listen, I know it's been some time, but I need to speak with you." "What?" "You thought you could just call me up out of the blue and I'd welcome you with open arms?" "You know how I feel about you, about what you do, about everything." "So why are you calling me?" "Listen, people change." "No." "You'll never change." "I- listen, let me just explain." "First rule of the bodyguard, never leave the client." "Give me the phone." "Give me the fucking phone." "You weren't thinking of leaving without at least saying good-bye, were you?" "Mr. Maxwell" "I wasn't running." "I told you I had to make a phone call." "Do me a favor." "Lend me your cuffs." "Come on, you got to be kidding me." "I'm not." "All right, Ridley, come on." "The joke's over, all right?" "Take these off." "Why don't you pour me one of those?" "Who was that girl?" "None of your business." "Come on, can't you pour me a drink, all right?" "A drink?" "Yeah." "Why didn't you say so?" "Now you just sit there and shut your mouth, or I tape it shut." "You're a real class act, Ridley." "A real class act." "So, Ridley, this bodyguard thing, I mean, why do you do it?" "I mean, I could never understand why someone would take a bullet meant for somebody else." "I mean, is it the money?" "'Cause I don't get it." "You could never understand." "Well, let me take a wild guess, all right?" "Is it some nonsense about integrity and duty and honor?" "Maybe." "Yeah." "Sounds good, but I don't buy it." "I guess this is what separates someone like me from someone like you." "Really?" "And what exactly is someone like me?" "From where I'm standing, you are the scum of the Earth." "Why, 'cause I kill people for a living?" "Yeah, for starters." "La porta se esta tancando." "It's the way of the world, Ridley." "I didn't create it." "I'm just a little piece of the machinery." "Besides, it's all business." "If I didn't do it, somebody else would." "That's supposed to make it right?" "No." "It just makes it the way it is." "Hold it." "Where's the regular guy?" "Called in sick." "Flu or something." "[electronic beep]" "Whoa, so on top of being a stone-cold killer, you're also a pervert." "Nice." "That's not the way it is, Ridley." "What's the matter?" "You don't think I'm capable of doing anything good?" "The only thing you're capable of is pain, misery, and death." "You know what?" "When you're dead and buried, nobody's gonna give a shit." "Nobody's gonna care one bit." "Got any keys or coins?" "No." "[beeping]" "What's this?" "Sorry, forgot." "Just got it done last week." "Ouch." "That's got to hurt." "Not as much as this." "[muffled gunshots]" "You know why I picked you to be my bodyguard, Ridley?" "Tell me." "Who better to guard me than the man who wants to kill me the most?" "You got to love the irony, huh?" "[chuckles] [knocking at door]" "Yes?" "Room service." "[muffled gunshots] [distant crashing]" "[gunshots]" "Get me out of these." "[gunshots]" "Fuck you." "Fuck me?" "[gunshot]" "Let me guess." "They sent you here to dispatch me?" "Would that be a fair assumption?" "[gun clicking] [explosion]" "[tires squealing]" "What the hell was that standing out in the open shit?" "They teach you that in assassin school?" "I wanted to see how good you really are." "Look, if anyone's gonna kill you, it's gonna be me." "Got that?" "Stop the car." "What?" "I just said stop the car." "You can take a leak at the next gas station." "This is no joke." "Stop the car now." " Forget it." "If you feel like getting out, be my guest." "If you insist." "[tires screeching] [loud crashing]" "Maxwell." "Damn!" "[doorbell buzzing]" "Catherine." "What are you doing here?" "Look at you." "You're a woman now." "Well, I'm not a child anymore." "I make my own decisions now." "It's my life, and you're not a part of it." "I just want you to give me a chance to make it up to you." "Too late for that." "You show up after all these years and decide to play the loving father?" "Look, things are different now." "Oh, really?" "So you've given up killing for a living?" "I'm gonna turn myself in." "I am." "I promise you, it's gonna be different now." "It's not gonna be like it was." "Hey, Houdini, let's go." "I'll make this short and sweet." "I don't ever want to see you again, okay?" "So take your trained gorilla here, and get out of my life." "Who is Miss PMS?" "Huh?" "Let's go." "[phone rings]" "Ridley." "Yeah, it's me." "We got hit hard." "They wiped out the entire suite." "Christ." "You okay?" "Yeah, I'm fine." "What about" "Don't worry." "He's still in one piece for the moment." "Okay." "I'm gonna get you to a safe house." "Where are you now?" "Somewhere in the Eixample Esquerra from the looks of it." "It's your call, John." "Just tell me how you want to work this." "Okay, remember my friend Rogelio's place, the one I used on the Scagnetti case?" "Yeah, sure." "The nightclub over in Barri Gótic, right?" "That's the one." "After dark, okay?" "We'll be there." "Don't worry." "You'll be sucking down brandy and caviar again in no time." "You assured me this little problem of ours would be dealt with, and now you tell me this seemingly simple task has been somehow- how did you put it?" "Fucked up?" "I can't afford incompetence." "Our window is rapidly closing." "If you cannot get the job done, maybe it's time I find someone who can." "If you'll excuse me for saying so, Mr. Tolkin, you'll recall it was your man," "I mean, woman who was in charge" "If you're referring to Lareina, she would never disappoint me." "You gave me your personal guarantee that this bodyguard would be of no consequence." "Just a minor setback, sir." "But in a short while, all your troubles will be over." "I can assure you." "Your assurances don't mean very much right now, Graver." "Just get the job done." "I don't want to have this conversation with you again." "Understood?" "Yes." "We wouldn't have been in this mess if you'd brought me in earlier." "Just send over a half dozen of your best men." "Here's the address." "You're making a mistake." "Let me go alone." "I'll have everything cleaned up nice and tidy." "Just do what I tell you." "Oh, oh, oh." "Don't fight the feeling." "Oh, oh, oh." "[jumping hip-hop music]" "I'm here for Rogelio." "It's amazing what passes for entertainment these days." "[jumping hip-hop music]" "[laughs]" "Holy shit, man." "Holy fucking shit." "I can't believe this, right in front of me." "Bigger-than-life Ridley, John fucking Ridley." "Hey, Rogelio, nice to see you." "Man, haven't seen you in, like, forever." "Well, didn't catch the name, buddy." "Maxwell." "Any friend of Johnny's is a friend of mine." "That's great." "Now, I know you didn't come to Barcelona just to see my ugly mug again." "No." " So what's up?" "In some kind of trouble?" "Need my help?" "Whatever you need, you got it." "Just say it, Johnny." "Come on, what's the 411?" "What's the dealio?" "Break it down for me." "Hey, take it down a notch, okay?" "We just need a place to hold up for a while." "We're kind of hot right now." "You mean you're back in the game?" "Well, all-freaking-right." "Just like the good old days, huh, Johnny?" "Just like in the good old days." "Anything you need." "Just let me know." "I can give you 100%, okay?" "For right now, we just need some food." "We're hungry, right?" "Yeah, food." "Say no more;" "say no more." "I'm on it." "You guys make yourselves at home." "Kick back, relax, chill." "Be back in a flash." "Okay." "Hey, you want some girls with that?" "No, thanks." "I take it this gentleman here is a friend of yours." "Well, he's a very good friend of mine." "I guess it's something you wouldn't understand." "Yeah, well, I never had much use for friends, you know." "Oh, how come that doesn't surprise me?" "[laughs]" "Yeah." "Rogelio and I, we did a few campaigns together." "Rogelio was a mercenary?" "You've got to be kidding me." "That guy?" "He was the best demolition man in the business." "He was really talented in blowing stuff up." "But deep down in his heart, he always wanted to be a rock star." "Guess this is as close as he got." "Yeah, tell him it's called self-denial, you know?" "All right?" "Tell him to get over it." "You really are a heartless bastard, aren't you?" "Yeah, well, it comes with the territory." "You know, in my line of work, that's the way it is." "That's bullshit." "[chuckles]" "Gustav." "Bon appetite." "Get a room, okay?" "Yeah, bon appetite." "[pulsing dance music]" "So who's this guy?" "Do you really want to know?" "Ahh." "Let me get this straight." "You mean to tell me that guy sitting in there, right in my office, is the same son of a bitch that killed your last client?" "Yeah." "And almost fucking ruined your entire life?" "Yes." "And you're his bodyguard?" "Yes." "Excuse me for asking, but have you completely lost your fucking mind?" "I think that's a distinct possibility, yeah." "I can't believe this." "How can you be so calm about it?" "How come you're not in there right now laying the smack down on his ass?" "Rogelio, that's a long story." "I don't get it, man." "I just don't get it." "I mean, call me crazy, but if it was me, two seconds after that motherfucker walked back into my life, he'd be dead." "Look, all I used to think about was killing this guy." "I must have murdered him a thousand times in my sleep." "But now... [sighs]" "I just want this job to be over with." "And I want to keep on with the rest of my life." "[pulsing dance music]" "[gunshots] [people screaming]" "[gunshot]" "[gunshots]" "[glass shattering]" "Oh, we're back in the business." "[gun clicking]" "Fuck." "Sorry, big boy." "But this one's all mine." "You, my friend, need to get in touch with your, shall we say, feminine side." "[gunshots]" "Are you okay?" "Whoa, man." "Shooting that bitch was a real tattoo moment." "A what?" "You know, something that will stay with you forever." "[laughs]" "That's funny." "Hey, I'm sorry." "I did not know this was going to happen." "Oh, don't worry about it." "I just wish I could have helped you out more." "I think you did just fine, bro." "I owe you one." "A big one." "Yeah." "What, are you waiting for an invitation?" "Move over." "I drive." "I didn't know boosting cars was part of your repertoire." "Let's go." "[tires squealing]" "Graver sold you out." "Fuck, no way." "Who else knew we were gonna be there in the first place?" "No way Graver would set me up." "That's not possible." "Come on, Ridley." "One thing you got to learn, in this business, anything is possible." "Shit, Catherine." "Catherine, the girl from earlier?" "Yeah, we got to go back and get her." "What, the one that despises you?" "No way." "Forget it." "Listen, I got no time to sit here and argue with you, okay?" "I'm not gonna explain it to you." "Her life's in danger." "We got to go back and get her." "Listen, asshole, I am sick and tired of playing games." "So who is that girl?" "She's my daughter." "I don't believe this." "Listen, if I'm a target, then so is she." "We got to go back and get her before they do." "What makes you think they even know about her?" "'Cause there's only one person who knows about her." "And that one person is Graver." "Rogelio was right." "I'm losing it." "All right, we'll go back to the city." "Café?" "Y quieres algo mas?" "No?" "Vale." "Catherine." "What the hell are you doing here?" "Listen to me." "We've got no time to explain." "You have to come with us, okay?" "It's not safe here." "You must be joking." "I'm not going anywhere with you." "Catherine, listen" "Get your goddamn hands off me." "Catherine, Te estan molestando esos hombres?" "No, no, no, no." "estos caballeros ya se iban." "Look, you have every right in the world to hate me, all right?" "But it's not safe here." "You have to come with us now." "[gunshot] [people screaming]" "[gunfire]" "What are you gonna do to get us out of here?" "I'm working on it." "Relax." "Well, do something." "[gunshots]" "Stay down;" "don't move." "I'll be back." "[gunshots]" "Where's your bodyguard now, Maxwell?" "Where the hell is he?" "[engine revving]" "You need an invitation?" "[gunshots]" "You know, really, I know you're not as dumb as you look." "When you gonna get it through your thick head that Graver sold you out?" "When are you gonna accept it, and what are you gonna do about it?" "I still say that's bullshit." "Graver would never do that to me." "You know, you better talk straight, or you're gonna end up as dead as Lonsdale." "Say that again." "Say that again, and see what happens." "You heard me, huh?" "You want to see what happens?" "I'm gonna show you what happens." "Stop it." "What the fuck are you doing?" "It doesn't help anything." "You know what?" "She's right." "No more talk." "Huh, how's that?" "Huh, huh?" "What are you gonna- [grunts]" "What happened?" "I didn't hit you that hard." "It's not you." "You still hit like a pussy." "What's wrong?" "[groans]" "I've got to take my pills." "Ahh." "Saw about a dozen doctors." "They all said the same thing." "They said it's terminal, you know." "So either way I'm dead, so it doesn't matter." "I guess my body's turning against me." "I can't blame it though." "How long?" "I don't know, two, three months tops." "It seems like I'm getting paid back for all the horrible things I did, you know." "Payback's a bitch, huh, Ridley?" "So this is what it's all about." "That's why you're testifying." "No." "Seems like I want to show some people that I still got some good in me." "You have your mother's eyes." "You know that?" "Her hair." "You're the spitting image of her." "I just want you to know that leaving you both was the hardest thing I ever did." "Then why did you?" "Catherine, because I knew as long as I did what I did, both of you would always be in danger." "I wouldn't have that." "Why you didn't just quit then?" "You can't quit, Catherine." "First time you do what I do, that's it." "You're in it for life." "I just want you to know that I never stopped loving your mother." "And I never stopped loving you." "Okay?" "Come on." "I think it's better we get out of here." "Wait, wait, stop the car." "Stop the car." "Where in God's name are we?" "This is Rogelio's country house." "It used to be like my second home." "We'll be safe here." "[knocking at door]" "Johnny boy." "[laughs]" "Since you're here, you must be still in trouble, right?" "Nice, huh?" "Come on, guys." "Get in here already." "You've got to be kidding." "You see?" "This is my grandma, my grandfather." "When I travel the world, I buy things." "I got this in China." "I got this in Japan." "Well, actually, this is fake." "And that horse over there, it was a real horse that I bought in Japan." "Come on, come on." "So who is your decorator, the Marquis de Sade?" "Well, you know what they say." "A man's home is his castle." "Don't believe I've had the pleasure." "Rogelio, please meet Catherine." "Welcome to Camelot, my lady." "Mi casa, su casa." "Thanks." "So where is the dungeon?" "Down the hall and to the left." "Beautiful and sarcastic:" "I like." "And of course you remember Lee, huh?" "Of course." "Yeah, charmed, I'm sure." "Ozzie used to own it back in the '70s." "Got to maintain that rock and roll image, you know?" "Hey, Rogelio, listen." "What happened in the club" "Oh, forget about it." "You know, I was getting bored with that joint anyway." "Probably would have ended up torching it myself for the insurance money." "So what's the plan, man?" "Well, I don't know." "I make it up as I go along." "Well, looks like you won't be going anywhere for a while." "Drink, anyone?" "Drink?" "Yeah." "How about bring the whole bottle?" "Wow." "Hey, mind if I come in?" "No." "Who's that?" "My father." "He always taught me to be strong, always pushed me to try harder, to do better, to be the best." "[chuckles]" "He wanted to toughen me up for the real world." "But one day, he got sick:" "lymphoma." "And I had to watch this man who always seemed like Superman to me waste away to nothing." "And there was nothing I could do about it." "Is he the reason you became a bodyguard?" "[chuckles]" "Maybe." "Maybe I was just tired of being on the wrong side." "Yeah." "Why do you still keep this thing?" "As a reminder, as a reminder of a mistake I will never make again." "So, Maxwell, tell me." "Why did you let me live?" "Was it another one of your noble gestures of wanting to do something good before you die?" "Maybe." "You see, in my line of work, you get used to pulling the trigger for someone else." "It's so anonymous." "Faces don't mean anything." "After while, you know, you get a little dead inside." "So in that alleyway when I saw you leave your client, protect your friend, as stupid as I thought that was, there was something very honorable in that." "Like I said before," "I can never understand how you guys take a bullet for somebody else." "I could never do that." "But what you did- yeah." "I just thought maybe you should die in a better place than some alleyway." "What?" "Now I'm supposed to be thankful for this?" "I'm just telling you the way it is." "Listen, I got an idea how we could make things right." "What do you mean?" "You call Graver." "You tell him I'm ready to surrender, but tell him only to him personally." "If you're right about Graver, you're setting yourself up." "You're gonna be a dead man." "Yeah." "Don't you love the irony?" "Make the call." "Shit." "I guess the old saying is true." "If you want something done right, you've got to do it yourself." "How very true." "And since you seem incapable of following through on your promises, the task has fallen to me." "I've given Mr. Tolkin my word that this matter would be resolved once and for all." "All right." "Let's finish this, shall we?" "You, get the men." "You're gonna love this." "[machinery whirring]" "Just a few souvenirs from some of our previous ops." "Always thought this stuff might come in handy some day." "Nice, huh?" "Let's see what we got here." "It's a" "Heckler  Koch PSG1, 650 millimeter heavy-duty barrel, four grooves, right-hand twist," "Hendsoldt scope with illumination, target-type pistol grip." "Nice." "That's what I was gonna say." "Let's go to work." "[electronic beeping]" "Hey." "Just thought you might need something to warm you up." "It gets pretty chilly out here." "Yeah." "I take it you spend a lot of time at fountains." "Well, I do some of my best thinking at fountains." "That's what I was doing;" "thinking." "I don't know." "I feel all mixed up." "That man in there" "That man?" "You mean your father?" "Yeah, my father." "I still have problems saying that." "You can't change the past, but you can change the way you feel." "It's never too late for this." "Maybe it's time to forgive and move on." "And what about you?" "Can you forgive him?" "[sighs]" "I don't know." "Hey." "Take this one here." "Thanks." "It's nice and warm." "They're coming." "How many?" "Enough to go around." "Rogelio, take her upstairs." "Get her safe." "Go ahead." "I got this from Rogelio." "I can never understand these things." "They're uncomfortable as hell." "But I think it's time you got a new one, right?" "Thank you." "Come on." "Let's go welcome them." "Let's get this over with quickly." "Let me handle this." "It's personal." "Good to see you again, John." "So where is he?" "He's dead." "Dead?" "Ah." "Guess he pissed me off one too many times." "I had to kill him." "Why don't I believe you, John?" "[chuckles]" "You tell me." "I know you too well." "That's not your style." "You always did have a warped sense of honor." "Now let's stop playing games." "Where the hell is he?" "First tell me why." "I think you owe me that much." "For old time's sake, huh?" "Sure, why not?" "I did it for the money, a lot of money." "That's what it's all about in the end, isn't it?" "Wave enough green under someone's nose, and they're liable to do anything." "Like sell out a friend." "You were the perfect scapegoat, John." "Who better to pin Maxwell's death on than the man whose life he ruined?" "Nobody would ever question it." "And I'd be home free." "But you had to play the hero." "Anyway, I'd love to stay here and chat all night, but I have a deadline to meet, you understand." "I promise I'll make it quick, for old time's sake." "Now, where is he?" "What if I don't feel like telling you?" "Face it, John." "The odds aren't in your favor." "Well, maybe we can help even things up." "[electronic beep] [explosion] [gunfire]" "[explosions] [gunfire]" "[gunfire]" "Chase him down." "[gunfire]" "[explosion]" "[gunshots]" "[gunshots] [coughing]" "Catherine, give me another clip." "Get my pills." "Stop, Ridley." "No more heroics." "You should have killed me when you had the chance." "I'm going to leave you with more than just a scar." "[grunting]" "Oh, damn, damn." "[coughing]" "Oh, damn." "Mr. Maxwell." "I'm afraid your services will no longer be required." "[gunshots]" "It's okay." "It's okay." "I had to do it." " I know." "I had to." "[both grunting]" "[both screaming] [metallic scraping]" "[metal clanging]" "[gunshots]" "[explosion]" "[both grunting]" "[distant gunfire]" "[coughing]" "Are you okay?" "Yeah, I'm all right." " You sure?" "Okay." " Let's go." "Maxwell." "You've been one colossal pain in my ass, Maxwell." "Leave her alone." "She knows nothing." "True." "But it's not a good idea to leave any witnesses." "You of all people should know that." "You want me, Ridley?" "You got to go through him." "You prepared to do that?" "Yeah." "[gunshot]" "[gunshots]" "Say hello to the devil." "[gunshot]" "Why did you do it?" "You shot me." "I don't believe it." "How'd you know?" "I didn't." "[laughter]" "[siren wailing]" "Hey, Aames." "Glad that you could make it in time." "Why the hell didn't you call me sooner?" "This guy hasn't been giving you any trouble, has he?" "You have no idea." "Didn't we have fun tonight, huh?" "[laughs]" "Just like the good old days, Johnny." "Like the good old days." "We got two hours to get you on a flight back to the States." "I hope you're ready." "I'm ready as I'll ever be." "Thanks, Rogelio." "You take care, Johnny." "So you think you're gonna be all right?" "I guess." "[people talking at once]" "Over here, please, sir." "How did it go in there?" "It felt good to get it off my chest." "I'll tell you that." "Bye-bye, Victor." "Have a nice life." "You ready to meet your new world?" "Bring it on." "Let's go." "[people talking at once]" "Shit." "Good-bye, Ridley." "[gunshots]" "[sighs]" "Hey, how do I look, huh?" "I got to look good for the cameras, right?" "You look fine, Daddy, just fine." "Please don't try to talk." "Now we're even."
