"(Ryan) Cheer up, Jake." "You're doing a public service." "(chuckles) Hell, you should be happy to nail scum like Tau." "Like I could give a shit." "Yeah?" "I used to think like that, too, when I was young, but things change." "Been after this son of a bitch for ten years." "Why?" "Why?" "It's my job." "Oh, Christ." "Another hero." "Mind if I take a little stab in the dark here?" "Got a family?" "Yeah." "You see 'em much?" "No, right?" "I'm divorced." "Yeah." "And when you do see 'em, you talk about your job, right?"

"You gotta care about something." "I don't know." "Community, people, something." "(scoffs)" "You sound like my father." "Yeah?" "Sounds like a pretty smart man." "Maybe I'll meet him sometime." "Yeah." "Maybe you will." "Nice house on government pay, huh?" "He tells me to call him Frank, like we're soul mates, the son of a bitch." "Listen, I know you're pissed at this guy, but keep yourself under control." "This isn't some goddamn revenge thing, OK?" "OK?" "Sure, Lieutenant." "Anything you say." "(doorbell rings)" "Hi, Frank." "(grunting)" "Shit." "Hey, come on." "Oh, my God!" "Tell her it's all right." "I'm a police officer." "It's all right, Lisa." "We just wanna talk." "It's all right." "We'll be in the study." "(glass tinkles)" "What?" "(mutters) Jesus." "Have another drink." "You're gonna need it." "Just read me my rights." "I don't wanna arrest you, Frank." "The man wants to be arrested."

"4th and Progress, the parking lot." "There's a streetlight there." "You can't miss him." "(man's voice) We'll be there." "I'm sure you will." "You fuck this up again, I'll blow your house up." "You know, your wife's an attractive lady." "I can't see her waiting around for, what, say, 20 years or so?" "Now, on the other hand, that shipment that Tau sent to Chicago..." "The trucks are on the way." "I wanna know where and when." "Serrano's the only one who knows that." "And I never dealt with him directly." "I always went through Gazzi." "Oh, he'll deal with ya." "(puts out cigarette)" "He wants Jake." "(Serrano) She pours it in and says, "Have a shot."" "He tastes it, says, "delicious"." "Except it's not anisette, it's kerosene." "(phone rings) He says, "Can I have another?"" "(laughing)" "Yeah?" "Hey, you go fuck yourself!" "You got some explaining to do!" "Who is that?" "It's, uh, Stuart, the fed." "He says he'll only talk to you." "I told him to go fuck himself." "Let me talk to him." "What happened last night, Frank?" "It was a bust." "No kidding." "Some cop walked right into the middle of it." "What are the odds against that, a thousand to one?" "Hey, Frank, Frank, if I want odds," "I got five bookies close enough to spit on." "Now, you tell me something I don't know." "I have him." "Chicago cops can be very reasonable." "It cost me, but I have him." "You don't worry about what it cost." "You bring him over..." "Tell him you can't risk it tonight." "OK, Frank?" "OK?" "This kid is a third-degree burn right now because of your guys." "They fucked up, not me." "I'm not going anywhere tonight." "Who said anything about tonight?" "Bring him over tomorrow." "That way it's nice and clean." "Do you understand what I'm sayin'?" "I'm only gonna give him up if you're there personally." "Where am I gonna go?" "Florida?" "(hangs up phone)" "(beep/dial tone)" "It's OK." "This is Serrano's restaurant." "He usually sits here." "Every afternoon, 2:30, he pours himself a sweet vermouth and watches the soaps." "You really know this guy." "I know all about you, too." "I know about Beijing, about Tiananmen Square." "I also know that you were 30 days late paying your last Visa bill and you got a B minus in biology." "Yeah?" "So?" "I got screwed on the midterm." "Look, I'm sorry about before." "You know, there was a lot happening..." "It's OK." "Forget it." "Now pay attention." "Here's the plan for tomorrow." "This is the fire exit." "When the tear gas goes off, you get out through this door." "Sharpshooters across the street will cover you, then duck out behind this back alley." "I could get killed in there, tomorrow, couldn't I?" "You've got to trust Ryan." "Look, he would not send a civilian in there if he thought he couldn't control it." "Army intelligence told my dad the same thing." "He came home in a box." "You know, I never even knew why we were over there." "They've been promising to show me his military file for two years." "I haven't seen shit." "That's the way these guys are." "So don't talk to me about trusting Ryan." "Sounds like you hate him because he reminds you of your father." "You don't know anything about my father, OK?" "My father never got anyone else killed." "(sighs)" "Sit down." "You're wired for sound, my man." "All right, now." "The clear signal is, "Nice doing business with you."" "We hear that, we're in." "Right." "After this, you get me squared with the locals and I go home, right?" "Yeah, that's a deal." "I get when and where on the shipment from Tau, and you get a free ticket back to bikinis and palm trees." "(speaks Chinese)" "What did you say?" "(speaks Chinese)" "(speaks Chinese)" "He says he thinks he's in love with you." "Get in line." "Move out, Jake." "Get him to the car." "Jake, move it." "(Ryan) Remember, Frank, the signal is," ""Nice doing business with you."" "This thing is wound way too tight." "Someone so much as sneezes -- Listen..." "I know you got the hots for him, but can't you keep it under control for ten minutes?" "I'm talking business -- So am I, damn it!" "You're supposed to be my intelligence officer." "Why don't you try showing me some by getting your ass across the street!" "I want you to know, Jake, that I'm the only one who did this to myself and to you." "I want you to know that I take responsibility for my personal actions." "This isn't EST, Frank." "Mr. Serrano's waiting." "Inside." "Skirmish teams one through four, give me the high sign if you're ready." "Over." "Look at this." "The FBI always gets its man." "Serrano's got religion." "Give me the word, and I'll send him to his maker." "Negative." "Hold your fire." "Switch him off only on the lieutenant's signal." "Copy?" "(sharpshooter) Copy that." "(sighs in relief)" "Have I ever let you down?" "I have something I have to talk to you about." "Wait a second." "Pleasure before business." "You saw me clip that guy, right?" "What was that fucker's name?" "Ching..." "Chung..." "Chang." "You know what I heard?" "I heard he wasn't dead." "He was 18 hours in the hospital before he died." "The cops kept asking who did it, except there wasn't enough left of him to say." "He could scream, though." "Aw... aw." "More or less." "You saw me, right?" "I saw you." "Uhh!" "(Jake coughing)" "Look at that, huh?" "Look at that posture." "Bad posture." "That's the root of every health problem in America." "You know what I'm gonna do?" "I'm gonna break your hands, finger by finger." "And then I'm gonna break your ribs, rib by rib." "Then I'm gonna break your legs." "Knock yourself out." "Jesus, kid!" "Knock yourself out?" "Mr. Serrano?" "Excuse me." "With all respect, I gotta get downtown." "We had an understanding." "I'll get back to him later." "Uhh!" "Put it right here." "Grazie." "There." "You just got sex appeal." "Come on, Frank!" "I have another deal for you." "Could we talk..." "you know, privately?" "What's on your mind?" "The Bureau knows -- Shh." "Come on." "Let's talk." "The Bureau knows about your heroin shipment." "And what's your end?" "Say, 100K off the top." "Frank." "Frank, Frank, Frank." "Tomorrow night." "Monarch Linen, Chinatown." "Yes!" "What time?" "Midnight." "Just one thing, eh?" "You guarantee no cops, no feds, and I give you nothing." "No 100 grand." "Zip." "You do it as a favor for me, for free." "OK, Mr. Serrano." "Tony." "Tony." "Hey, thanks again for this, huh?" "That's the thing about doing business with you, Frank." "(pounding/static)" "Shit!" "What's the matter?" "We lost Stuart's mike." "Anytime, Tony." "Nice doing business with you." "Hey, Frank." "Yeah?" "Why'd you say you'd do it for free, Frank?" "Nice doing business with you." "Nice doing business with you, Tony." "Yeah." "Nice doing business with you." "You know, the only time a man doesn't want any money... is when he wants somethin' else." "Hey..." "You're sweatin' like a pig." "All he wants to do is get outta here in one piece." "No, Tony..." "Son of a bitch!" "Move in!" "Move in!" "Go!" "Go!" "Go!" "We're movin'!" "Stand him up straight." "Stand him up straight!" "Come on!" "Move!" "Move!" "Move!" "We got cops out here!" "How many?" "Cops?" "!" "Get the cars!" "Take some men!" "Get the hell outta here!" "(Ryan) Tophat, take the shot!" "Take the shot!" "No can do." "Lost the shot." "Two, take him!" "Negative." "Target not clear." "No shot." "No shot." "(men shouting)" "Son of a bitch!" "(grunting)" "Aah!" "Ohh!" "(shouting)" "(choked scream)" "Uhh!" "Fucking kid!" "(groaning)" "(grunting)" "Aah!" "Fuck!" "(shrieks)" "Aah!" "(panting)" "(grunting)" "Ohh!" "Aah!" "(grunting)" "Ryan!" "Jake never came out." "I know, goddamn it!" "What the fuck do you want me to do about it?" "!" "Michael, get down!" "(yells)" "(panting)" "(gunshots)" "Kill that fucking kid." "(grunting)" "Second wave!" "Second wave!" "Go!" "Go!" "Get over there!" "Aah!" "(screaming)" "OK." "OK." "I'll make you a deal." "What I gave Stuart..." "you can have that." "It's not good enough." "That's 25 grand!" "What the fuck's the matter with you?" "!" "OK." "All right." "What do you want, huh?" "You didn't hear nothing." "You didn't see nothing." "I'll give you all the money you want." "Tony..." "The only time a man doesn't want money is if he wants something else." "You're sweatin' like a pig." "All he wants is to get out in one piece." "Not the face." "(both grunting)" "(thud)" "(sirens wailing in distance)" "(helicopter overhead)" "Nice plan, Lieutenant." "Jesus Christ." "Real smooth." "Uhh." "Gimme a hand." "Fuck you." "Steve, take this piece of shit and book him." "I hear they're looking for a police commissioner in Beirut." "What's your problem, kid?" "We had a deal, right?" "(Gazzi's voice) What do you mean, he got away?" "How did he get away?" "Did they pop Klein?" "(Stuart's voice) They killed Klein, but the kid got away." "You know, we paid good money to them feds." "Don't worry." "I have it wired." "You better have it wired." "That kid saw everything." "(turns tape off)" "The feds got a copy of this tape." "You're clear, just like I said." "You son of a bitch." "Why didn't you use that tape before?" "I needed you." "Look, this is a war, kid." "There ain't no sideline." "You're either on one side or the other." "Well, maybe it's time you asked yourself what your little war costs." "Whatever it takes." "Lieutenant?" "Ah, forget it." "Now we get Tau." "It ain't over." "Come on." "Get in the fuckin' car." "Jake!" "Where are you going?" ""Whatever it takes"?" "I'm so tired of that bullshit." ""Whatever it takes" is something that happens to somebody else." "Yeah, well, you know, he's still the best cop I've ever known, OK?" "You need to get out more." "Jake, the next flight to LA doesn't leave for another four hours." "I think I've had enough police protection, Detective Withers." "Well, what if I told you I had something that you'd like to get your hands on?" "Excuse me?" "I have your dad's file." "(guard) He's got some brass." "You gotta give him that." "(guard #2) Yeah, you ask me..." "Welcome back, Mr. Serrano." "After you." "No." "After you, Mr. Serrano." "How's the missis?" "The missis, she's fine." "Yeah?" "That's good." "Fuckin' kid." "Fuckin' kid broke my fuckin' nose!" "Where did you get this?" "I told you." "Some friends in the Federal building." "I called in some favors." "Well, you better call 'em back." "I don't think they got the whole thing." "What did you think you were gonna find in there?" "I don't know." "Nothing."

"I was 10 feet from him when the tank when he died." "Everybody dies." "But he died for something he believed in." "You're alive, Jake." "You've gotta let him go." "I know." "I miss him." "(?
