" [Beeping]" "[Martin] To the one of you that completes the mission, the reward will be automatically deposited into your account." "We provided each of you with the same information regarding..." "Mr. Tsukamoto's untimely demise." "The reward is $50 million for finding Mr. Tsukamoto's assassin, and another 50 for finding those responsible for hiring that assassin." "If they are one and the same, the total reward is $100 million." "Questions?" " Yes?" " I want to know." "What happens if more than one of us claims success?" "It will be the winner's responsibility to provide us with adequate proof of his kill." "To the satisfaction of the judges." "[Speaking Foreign Language]" "[Translators Speaking]" "Ah, the judging." "Well, the three of us, as appointed by Mr. Tsukamoto, will be the final arbiters." "Our resumés... and you all have copies..." "fully detail our qualifications." "This corporation, and its employees, are a legitimate, uh, enterprise, and therefore we are not advising you to take any illegal action." " Listen up, everybody." "This is a search warrant." " This is no surprise." " These guys have nothing on us." " Yes, exactly." "My name is Lieutenant Chan." "Just cooperate, and this will only take a minute." "Lieutenant, this is a private, perfectly legal, meeting." "I've heard rumors to the contrary." "You're investigating rumors now?" "If you'd like, I could send you the minutes of this meeting." "That's good." "Papers, please." "This driver's license is expired." " I don't drive." " You should get it renewed anyway." "What's the big deal, officer?" " Maybe he can explain this knife." " That's a harmless pocket knife." "Look at that thing." "It won't even cut paper!" "You think we're dangerous?" "Why don't you confiscate our toenail clippers, too?" " What are you doin' here?" " This kid's got a mind for numbers." "I brought him over to apply for a position in the accounting wing." "That's a crime?" "Huh?" "[Officer] Sir, please keep your hand on the table." "We're out of here." " So, what now?" " Just let them know we're watching." "You see, Fu?" "Cops are no problem." "You just got to know how to handle them." "Huh?" "Is that Eiji Tsukamoto?" " He's a contestant." " But he's family." "He should be ineligible." "[Growling]" "Mr. Tsukamoto..." "I don't like my meal interrupted." "Especially by a Chinese." "So be quick." "I mean no disrespect, but I too am a busy man." "Let me tell you something." "Don't pretend that your life is more important than mine." "I only tolerate you because my grandfather hired you." "Very well." "I have something that may intrigue you." "Just cut to the chase." "As per your grandfather's instructions, before he was cremated, we did an autopsy." "And we found something..." "very, very interesting." "Something inside..." "inside his mouth." " How much do you want?" " One hundred thousand dollars." "And if you get the reward, I also want five percent of that." "Not just for me." "I have partners to consider." " Why come to me?" " As a businessman, I must always seek... the highest profit potential." " Are you afraid of me?" " Certainly." "But I fear poverty more." "[Uneasy Chuckling]" "[Continues Chuckling]" "This information of yours better be worth it." "Or this will pay for your funeral." "Well, what we found inside his mouth... was part of a note issued to thejapanese... during World War II!" "Uh, when we trace the serial number, that's a clue to the killer." " How long will it take?" " Not long." "Dinner is served, Master Eiji." "Remove the second plate." "Our guest is leaving." "Oh, thank you anyway, but I'm not very partial to sushi." " Oh!" "Thank you." " Lucky man." "Thank you." "I'll just step around." "On the night of the killings, most of the security tapes in the Tsukamoto Building... were destroyed by the assassin." "However, we managed to salvage one brief segment, showing the killer entering the lobby..." "As you can see, it's a short clip, and he's only viewed from the rear." "So, identification is going to be difficult." "We are sending this tape to image Enhancement..." "Bill, what's your take on all this?" "Well, one thing we know for sure, from the time the guy entered the building... to the moment he pulled the trigger, he didn't make one wrong step... not one." "He knows the place." "[Chan] So what do you think?" "Former employee?" "It's worse than that." "The list ofTsukamoto's enemies... reads like a Genghis Khan birthday bash!" "Well, let's start checking them off, then." "[Exhales Deeply] Well, we could use some more men." " But the chief won't approve it." " Hey, listen." "Start pulling in men from other precincts." " I'll approve the overtime." " Okay." "And Bill?" "You let me worry about the chief, all right?" "You bet." "Did we order this?" "I said, no onions." "You should send it back." "Don't eat that." "Hey, what's the big idea?" "Staring at my tits, you pervert?" " You want me to kick your ass, motherfucker?" " You asshole." "You want to see them?" "You should pay for it, like everyone else!" "Ah, you like that, huh?" "This is a Rolex." "To commemorate the unification of Hong Kong and China." "It's a Presidential." "It's got a 24-karat gold band, and diamonds inlaid around the face." " Take it." " [Chuckles]" "You're far too generous." "Thank you." "Don't overdo it." "Okay?" "I'm not that generous." "It's a counterfeit." "Yes, but a gift is still a gift." "Danny said you were a lightweight." " You know Danny?" " Uh, forget working for him." "I pay a lot better." "Stick with me, kid." "I'll treat you right." "Are you being up-front?" "Is this my money?" "Down payment!" "With me as your agent," "I have to pay for informants, weaponry, miscellaneous expenses..." "If I get the hundred mil, what's your percentage?" "Fu, don't you trust me?" "That deposit I put on you... is not refundable." "Not one bit." "What do you think?" "You want percentage?" "You get ten!" "No, you get ten." "[Chuckles] Hey, come on." "Why don't I just take this down payment, and you..." "Wait a second." "Before you get any of this money, you, my friend, have to prove to me that you're worth it." "What do you mean?" "Hey, you dumb whore." "What are you lookin' at?" "Okay." "Thirty seconds." "Hmm?" "So what's your problem?" " You are, you asshole..." "Oww!" " Okay, it's all yours." "I'm talkin' to you..."

"[Chuckles] In our line of work, you see, if you dress well, then you get respect, huh?" "Oh, we're male escorts." "For special ladies." "Perhaps you're interested." "Who's it gonna be, him or me?" "Whoa!" "[Coughing] What?" "Mm." " What's this?" " You gotta walk the walk, and talk the talk." "So I can keep in touch, this is yours." " Where's my down payment?" " [Scoffs] You're wearing it, Fu." " Oh, I..." " Huh." "I don't want you following me, okay?" "You'll call me?" "After spending all this money?" "Of course I'll call." "[Man] Taxi." "[Bill] His name is Norman Lu." "[Bill] His name is Norman Lu." "He's been in and out ofjail since he was a teenager." "Mostly con artist scams." " Nothin' violent." " Then what's he doin' as an agent for hit men?" "He's working a scam." "He's no agent." "What makes you so sure about that, Lieutenant?" "Something I always trust." "Instinct." "I don't know." "Does the computer have instinct?" " N-No." " That's right." "What happens if I spill something on it?" "Huh?" "Only worry if it's blood." "[Chuckles]" "We have to keep up on what's current." "Information equals success." "So I keep the lines of communication always open." " [Chuckles] - [Phone Beeping]" "Order something." "Chief." "Hey, how are ya doin', buddy?" "Hey, listen." "I'm open for a gig." "I've got a first-rate mechanic here." "Yeah." "For real this time!" "All right!" "Well, get back to me." "[Chuckling]" "Uh, what was that all about, huh?" "Until we find Tsukamoto's killer, we got to make a living." " [Old Man] Boy, I'm hungry." " I want my table in the back." " Go ahead and eat." " [Old Man] Oh, all right." " I heard he left town." " No, he croaked already." "He's not talking about Ming, he's talking about Chow." "I'm not talking about Chow or Ming..." "I'm talking, gentlemen, about your friend, Uncle Leung." " Oh, Uncle Leung, huh?" " Yeah, Uncle Leung." "You know where he is?" "Oh!" "Well, why don't you try Auntie Leung?" "[Laughing] That's very funny!" " Thanks." " Hang on." " You a friend of Leung's?" " Sure I am." "Well, he hasn't joined us for tea in quite some time." " Uh, a couple of weeks." " A month." " A month?" " [Beeping]" " Duty calls!" "Thanks, guys."

"I really mean it!" "Quit laughing." "This guy is like a shark." "He kills to live, and he lives to... huh?" "Say what?" "It only pays $10,000?" "Okay, we'll do it." "Who's the target?" "Uh-huh." "Yeah." "Okay." "We're on our way." "[Laughing, Gasping]" " What the..." " In this line of work, I have to keep my strength up." "You're not a sumo wrestler." " Come on." "We gotta go." " Wait!" "Can I finish?" " Finish?" " Uh-huh." "[Norman] Looks like a good place for a killing." " Uh-huh." " Good and loud." "Lots of kids here." "Yeah." "It's a carnival." "Hang on." "All right."

"Don't look now, but we've got some competition here today." " Competition?" " You're not the only killer in town." "All right?" "You just got to beat them to the target." "Wait." "Who's the target?" "I thought you knew already." "The father of that boy you were just playing with." "It's best to do it quick and clean." "No delays." "Better hurry now." "It's getting late." "Go ahead now." "Go on." "Good luck." "Break a leg." "Quick and clean!" "[Distorted Speech And Laughter]" "Get down!" "[Boy Crying]" "No!" " Huh?" "Fu!" " What are you doing here?" "I need the job!"

" Get on the ground, now!" " [Norman] I'm just a bystander." " Get on the ground!" " I was just standing by here." " Just be straight with us." "It's not you we're after." " They're not saying a whole lot." " Just be straight with us." "It's not you we're after." " They're not saying a whole lot." "Okay, one more time." "What were you doing at the amusement park?" "I like the merry-go-round a lot." "I always have." "The horses are my favorite." "So that's illegal?" "How do you explain your fingerprints on the pistol?" "I was just trying to stop him." "My prints are also on this desk." "So is this mine too, or what?" "Those assassins were your neighbors." "Now tell me about 'em." "You know your neighbors?" "All right, smart guy." "Tell us about Norman." " The guy you were at the carnival with." " Acquaintance." "My close, close friend." "Well, your close friend is nothing but a small-time crook!" "Oh, really?" "You don't say?" "Well, you know, that crook... saved the life of that guy and his kid at the carnival." "What are you gonna do?" "Charge him with bravery?" " Somebody just bailed him out." " Who is it?" "It's his daughter." "[Chuckling] Don't mess with her, boys." "She's gonna be a lawyer." " Hi, sweetheart." " What did you do now?" " Why, nothing!" " Of course not." "Come on, Dad." "Someone was killed." "[Chuckles] Well, maybe my friend here can explain things." " Is he like your other friends?" " [Footsteps]" "Pardon me." " So, what do you think?" " An improvement." " No scars, or tattoos." " [Laughs]" "Hello, sir!" "How are you?" "I've taken care of your bail, but, uh, who's this?" "Another friend of Father's." " Uh, would you..." " Of course." " I'll go see the bail clerk." " Oh, thank you!" " David, let's go." " Uh-huh." "Your daughter?" "Of course." "Why not?" "Her mom played basketball." "Don't get any ideas." "That guy is her fiancée." "Got it?" "[Norman Whistling]" " I'll bring the car around." "Okay?" " You do that." "David, I'll go with you." "Nice of your daughter to help us out." "Yeah." "She's a good kid." "But she doesn't seem too happy to see you." "She's very happy." "My daughter is much like myself." "We hold our emotions inside, and we don't need to show them to the world." "Understand?" " We're private people." " If you say so." "We'd like a word." " My son wasn't hurt." " I'm glad." "This is for your help." "I appreciate it." "Keep it." "It's yours." "[Tires Screeching]" "Let me see that." "There's about 5,000 here." "But you'd have got ten if you'd killed him." "That's quite a trick you pulled, turning 10,000 into 5,000!" "Your pager." "Pull over, David." "[David] Oh, of course!" " Go on." " Are you gonna call me?" "[Laughing] I will!" " But you'll call, right?" " Bye-bye!" " But..." " See ya!" " Priceless."

" He's always taking advantage!" " Who?" "Me?" "[Scoffs] Just last week, my law professor asked me what kind of father... what kind of father I had." "A-And you know what?" "I thought, and I thought some more." "I was so... so ashamed, I couldn't think of one nice thing... to say about you." "Do you really need to say all this stuff in front of David?" "That's all right." "We're family." "What?" "Hey, you and Kiki aren't even hitched yet!" " So just..." " Don't go there!" "Just pull over and drop me anywhere." "Perfect." " [Norman] See you, David." " [David] Good-bye, sir." " Bye." " Papa..." "Huh?" "What?" "I'm real sorry." "What I said..." "I don't mean to hurt you." "Oh." "[Chuckles]" " [Car Door Closing] - [David] Sir?"

" Where are you from?" " Huh?" "Oh." "I'm from the Mainland." "Four months ago, I promised my mom... to get her a brand-new mansion." " Except now, I can't even afford to buy her a doghouse." " [Laughing]" " Come on." " You're so unlike Dad's usual friends." "[Chuckles Uneasily] Well, maybe I need a few scars." "Or tattoos." "You never knew him in prison." "I want you to tell me." "What's he up to?" "Seriously." "Your father was kind to include me in his plan." "What plan?" "Well, I shouldn't tell you everything." "But really, it could make money!" "For us both." "That's the truth." " Let's make a pact." " A pact?" "Like this." "Keep an eye on father." "Let me know if he's in danger." "Okay?" "It's all I need to know." "[Chuckling]" "Okay?" " [Gasps]" " You can do it." "Come on!" "Wow." " What's this?" " They're for laundry." "Here." "Let me help." "[Kiki] Don't you think it feels great to donate... to someone less fortunate?" " What's wrong?" " [Sighs]" " Just feeling generous. [Chuckles]" " You're great." "Do you wanna die young, you stupid fool?" " What made you be so angry?" " Hey!" "What did I say?" "I told you once." "Stay away from my daughter." "You are lucky." "I'd tear you a new asshole... if I wasn't in such a hurry." " Why are you in a hurry?" " The fund manager guy, Martin." "He's got some information!" "Ah, come on." "You're lucky to be alive, my friend." "All right!" "Nice shot." "You finally missed one." " What's the info?" " Let's see the cash first." "Here." "Twenty thousand." "Well, that's only a month's worth of gas." " What are you drivin'?" " Ayacht." "Anyway, we found something inside Mr. Tsukamoto's mouth." "We believe the killer left it there." "It's part of a banknote." " A banknote?" " Quiet, Fu." " A banknote?" " One issued during World War II." "And we're, uh, still tracking down the serial number." " That's the sizzle, where's the steak?" " That's all ya get." "We paid 20,000?" "And that's all you got?" "Of course." "So did five other people before you." "They paid better." " So, when was this?" " Quiet, you." " So when was this?" " Maybe... 72 hours ago." " Are you serious?" " I should tell you something else." "As a warning." "We believe Tsukamoto was executed by an assassin... known as "The King of Killers,"" "and as far as we can tell, he works for himself... and kills only lifelong criminals and underworld figures." " Seventeen hits to date." " "King of Killers."" "Mainly, if this dangerous individual is caught, not only will you receive the $ 100 million reward, but you will also receive the gratitude of the entire underworld." "Be careful." "Good-bye." "Come on." "Who was the first..." "to buy the information?" "Good question." "The man first with the information..." "It was Eiji." "Good day, boy." "Why'd you ask that?" "I figure whoever was first is closer to the killer." "Hey!" "That's not bad!" "[Chuckles]" "[Norman] We've watched him for days." "[Norman] We've watched him for days." "Eiji's no closer to finding the killer than anybody else." "Be patient." "Why don't you be patient, huh?" "I'm sleepy." "[Martin] We've analyzed the portion of the banknote... found inside... inside your grandfather's mouth." "The serial number was registered to an old man." "I have right here his information." "He lives outside the Lee Chin province." " Go get the car." " Sir." "[Engine Starting]" "Hey." "[Tires Screeching]" "[Birds Twittering]" "Find the old man." " But keep him alive." " Yes." "Let's go!" "Ahh." "Hey, mister!" "Uncle Leung isn't home." "Great." "Here, you can have one, ladies." "Have a nice day." "Enjoy." "Hey!" "Come on!" "Hurry up!" " Take the old man's junk away." " Yes, sir." "He's moving out." "Stay back!" " Cool." " [Coughing]" " Don't shoot!" " [Grunts, Groans]" "[Whimpers]" "Uncle Leung, are you okay?" "Come on." "This way!" "Come on!" " Come on, throw him!" " [Groaning]" "Hang in there, Uncle Leung." "We'll get you outta here." "Whoa-oh." "Hey, my brother." "Just be cool." "Mellow out." " Ugh." " Don't." "All right?" "Stay." "Run!" "[Grunts]" "[Gasps]" " Uncle Leung, you okay?" " Is he okay?" " Talk to me." "Uncle Leung?" " Yes." "Danger." "Come on." "[Chuckles]" "[Chuckles Evilly]" "[Chuckles]" "You're doing great." "That's it, boy." "Hold him here." "I'll wait outside." "Fu!" "Fu!" "Fu!" "[Norman] The old man didn't have anything to do with it." "Go on and tell 'em." "Old man?" "Uh, Uncle Leung, speak to me." "Uncle Leung, talk to me." "Heart attack." " Shouldn't you tell us?" " Come on." "What did the old man know?" "P-P-P-P-Pu..." "Piss off." "[Whispering] The pigeons must fly the coop." "[Whimpering]" "Going against me is a big mistake." " Very unhealthy." " [Whimpering]" "Just do him, for Christ sakes!" "Christ, yeah." " [Eiji] But later." " [Norman Sighs]" "[Sighs]" "[Emergency Radio, Indistinct]" "[Emergency Radio, Indistinct]" "On this operation, you are using too many officers." "Way too many." "Murders don't solve themselves, all right?" "I've got people to answer to also." "Why are you angry with me?" "Tell me why you need these men, and calmly." "Look, it's..." "It's complicated." "Ah." "But it's very simple." "You see, two of the dead wereJapanese." "One of them was a crime lord." "The other was just..." "just an old man." "Let thejapanese take care of their own." "We're paid by the people of Hong Kong." "Don't forget that." " Have any questions?" " That's an understatement." " I haven't been really honest." " No kidding?" "You should get going." "Serious." "I'm not going." "You should know that these guys..." "[Chuckles]" "Are coming here." "Come on, spill it." "Will you just be open?" "[Chuckles]" "Okay." "It began a month ago." "One morning, I saw a "Help Wanted" ad looking for a hired killer." "I said, "Don't do it."" "But I was curious." "And poor, of course." "Extremely." "But when I pursued it," "I found out the ad was placed by the one they called Uncle Leung." "The man he wanted to kill was Tsukamoto." "Because Tsukamoto killed Leung's family during the war." "Poor old devil." "And Tsukamoto was in Hong Kong at the time." "I didn't really plan to kill him." "I was just gonna take advantage of Uncle Leung." "But the old man had... cancer." "Incurable." "And he didn't have any money." "Just these old banknotes from the war." "But they were all worthless." "I turned him down." "But Uncle Leung sold those old notes... to an antique dealer." "He didn't get much money for them, but he still wanted to hire me." "I tried to say no." "He wouldn't let me." "He was an old fool." "I gave my account number." "I told him," ""Keep reading the newspapers and watching the news reports."" "And that's when Tsukamoto was whacked." "See, but I wasn't... the killer, see?" "Of course, it was him." "The King of Killers." "But the old man, he thought that I did it." "Gave me his money." "That's why I was looking for him." "No bullshit." "But what about the contest?" "The half million dollar deposit?" "You're broke." "[Groans] I'm in debt up to my damn eyeballs." "That's why I wanted to spy on this contest, Fu." "'Cause if anyone traces Leung's money to me, then they'll think I'm the King of Killers." "Then we are both..." "dead meat." " That's bad." " No kidding." " [Door Opening] - [Gasps]" " [Fu] Hi." " [Kiki] What's going on?" "Oh, Kiki." "I, uh, dropped something." "[Chuckles]" "Maybe we should do this another time." "[Clears Throat]" " Are you drunk again?" " No." "These stains here are from the car." "What about our pact?" "I'm moving the rest of my stuff out." "You're moving out?" "That's perfect." "I can use your room for storage, huh?" "Your emotions are overwhelming." "She just never appreciates when I'm trying to be nice to her." " Doing anything Saturday?" " What about her?" "I mean, it's my father's birthday." " We're also celebrating Kiki's graduation from law school." " Don't beg on my account." "You betcha." "Sure, okay." " Why would I miss my daughter's night?" " Great." "Remember, it's Saturday." "[Norman] I'll be there." "Okay." "See you Saturday?" "Bye." "You should watch your diet." "[Kiki's Voice] She'll protect you while you protect Dad." "[Men #1] Hey, let me see this." "[Men #1] Hey, let me see this." "[Man #2] Ooh, look at this." "It's great." "[Chattering]" "Look at this." "After your grandfather's murder, old Uncle Leung transferred a lot of money..." " into someone's account." " Just tell me, you little geek." "Oh, no need to be rude." "Recognize him?" " What's on?" " Shh." "Just a minute." "[Woman On TV] And at 2:15 this afternoon, the city fire department answered a four-alarm blaze in the Wanchai district." " The apartment was completely destroyed..." " Look." " And the cause of the fire is still under investigation." " What's the matter?" " The arson squad called the blaze extremely suspicious." " Oh, no." "It's over." "Make sense." "That used to be my apartment." "They're on to me." "Let's get out of here." "Oh, shit!" "[Grunting]" "[Panting]" "[Grunting]" " [Yelling] - [Gun Clicking]" " [Clicking Continues]" " Ohh!" "Go!"

"[Chuckles] I always buy them big." "Because I wish that I was taller." "You're here to take him in?" "We hear his life's in danger." "People want to kill him."

"Okay." "Then what that means... is a big reward." "Then maybe I'll kill you and collect it later." "[Both Chuckling]" " Kiki." "Hi." "Glad you're here." " Yeah." "Come on, honey." "David."

"[Chuckles]" "I appreciate it, but I like the small firm I'm with." "And I really want to go it on my own." "She doesn't know what she's saying." " [Chuckles] Don't listen to her." " Think it over."

"Now it's stocks." "Really?" "That's exciting work." "I'm a con man." "That's what I do." "Not stocks or software." " Pa?" " Oh, I'm sorry, Kiki." "But your new family would find out the truth." "I just can't hide who I am." "I know that you're mad." "I deserve it." "You must understand... that someday... you'll be successful." "And you can't have me standing in your way." "Well, if you would, don't hold my actions against my daughter." "So long." "I hope your birthday..." "is happy." "Let's get out of here." "Come on." "Fu tells me..." "you think I'm innocent." "With that reward on your head, I'd advise you to hide." "Well, how can we?" "That's a lot of money." "Let's go." " Go where?" " I've got one idea." "I'm afraid to ask." "Norman, just trust me." "Don't be embarrassed." "Your father's as welcome as you are." "Thank you." "But I need some time to think about things." "Happy birthday." " Thank you." " Kiki?" "You better forget her." " [Martin] Hello?" " This is Fu." "How can I help you?" "I have the King of Killers." "I'm coming in for the reward." "I'm not in my office." "Come to the Tsukamoto penthouse." " Okay." "And, Martin, make sure you're alone." " Of course." "All right." "Good-bye." " What happened?" " They're setting an ambush." "Hey, now, don't play around." "These guys are serious." "You fuck this up and you'll be killed." "If we don't get these guys, you'll be the first one to die." "Now you listen." "Take care of my daughter, like we talked about." "Mm-hmm." "Good evening." "Let's go." "Let's cut the deal." "It's brave of you to talk this way with the King of Killers standing next to you." " [Chuckles]" " If I kill him right now, where's the money?" " Wait a minute." "What's the hurry?" " Let the man talk." " In cyberspace." " The money's not here?" "You mean I have to trust a computer?" "Look, the way it works, the banks take the money..." " We transfer it directly into your account." " So do it." "Be patient." "All we need is his access code." "And we can transfer the money into your Swiss bank account." "You see?" "No problem." " Okay." " [Gunshots]" " Wha..." " [Groans]" "Did you actually kill him?" "You must be completely out of your mind." "I can't authorize this." "No matter who killed him, I'll get the money." "I told you we'd be ambushed." "Wow." "You used your brain." "All right, I'm not dead." "So none of you get dick." " Don't forget your deposit." " Mm." "Come on." " Okay." " [Yells]" " Those are real bullets." "Why are you asking me?" " Any ideas?" "[Yelling, Groaning]" "That's the man." " He's the King of Killers?" " [Gun Cocking]" "The King of Killers is mine."

"Fu, I know this great doctor." "Except he's in prison." "The King of Killers." " Let's go." " Hey." "Aren't-Aren't you worried I'll kill you to keep my secret?" "Don't move." " Well, this is quite a predicament." " How so?" "Well, you see, there's still the matter of the 100 million." " What's your idea?" " Well, lets say for the sake of argument... that Eiji Tsukamoto was the King of Killers." "He killed his grandfather." "And Detective Chan here, excuse me, came over to arrest him and upon arriving... found you two upstanding citizens ready to help him." "Now which one killed the King of Killers?" "That's for you to figure out." "Just don't forget our shares, okay?" "Well, okay." "I'll do my best." "I've invested all your shares into Nokia." "A very reliable stock, as you can see from these portfolios." "Should earn you a lot of money over the next few years." "As long as I have enough to buy my mom a giant mansion." "I'm going to buy my daughter a skating rink." "You could buy every rink in Switzerland now." "I have a very wealthy client who's interested in erasing a few bad eggs." " If you're interested in the job..." " Let's not talk about this stuff." "Not while I'm on vacation, all right?" "I'll get the information and send it to you in Europe, okay?" " Okay." "See you later." " Hey, have a good trip." " Let's talk." " I'm the guy's agent." "Talk to me." "Oh, well, I've..." "I've got a new agent." "Better than me?" "She's right here." "Hey, wait." "What is Fu talking about?" "He's retained my services." "You're taking my job away from me?" "Want me to be your agent too?" "Hmm?" "My agent?" "Are you kidding me?" " All right, I'll cut you in..." " It's time for me to retire." " You can't be a cop?" " No, not that." " King of Killers?" " [Chuckles] You take my place." " What?" "[Laughs]" " Yeah." "You must be crazy." "I'm a pretty good judge of character." "Trust me, you're the one." "The King of Killers." "It suits you." "But we're a team, okay?" " Only if you're the boss. [Chuckles]" " Okay."
