"He ain't got nothing on you." "Fuck you, man!" "Number one!" "The fucking champion!" "Fuck, yeah!" "Fuck you, man." "Number fucking one!" "That's right!" "Are you ready to fight now?" " Oh-hh!" " Round two." "Stupid fuckin' man!" "Halifights winner..." "still reigning motherfucking champ," "Avery Paul!" "What a fight!" "Aw, come on, man!" "Fuck you!" "Bam, bam, bam." "There you go." "That's all?" "Maybe more once I see how many hits we get." "Ads, you know?" "Right." "Hey, someone left this for you." "Said it was important." "You Okay?" " Yeah." " Okay." "Oh, Grandson..." "I left my card." "I've seen your fights online." "I was hoping we could talk." "What's it about?" "A job." " Find someone else." " We've tried." "Please understand that we've been searching for years." " The police." " Do you think we haven't called them?" "They don't care." "Tell the parents to go down there and get her themselves." "They're scared." "Can you imagine the torture it is to have her this close to home and so far from taking her last step?" "I can." "Now fuck off." "I know you need a second chance..." "as much as we do." " Who the hell are you?" " Who are you?" "A disgraced athlete reduced to an Internet joke." "What would your family think?" "With $20,000 you could get yourself reinstated, get your license back, hire a trainer." "You're made for more than this." "So is she." "20?" "I can't go any higher." "It's her parents' life savings." "What's your angle?" "Jan is my half-sister." "I'll do everything I can to help." "I'll need three days to get ready." "And $10,000 up front." "They come here most days to eat, mainly around this time." "She's usually with one or both of them." "Never alone." "The one with the girl is Tal." "He owns a house nearby... a shooting gallery." "Donny is the keeper." "These are very dangerous people." "Her." "The girl is Jan." "She ran away from home when she was 15." "She arrived back East about three months ago, from Montreal, we think." "Because of her addiction, she fell in with him." "She wanted to be a ballerina." "She was so smart." "Not anymore?" "We have reason to believe she's trying to escape this life to come home." "Please... get her out." "Sleep now, baby." "I don't expect to see you again." "50 cover." "Morphine." "Morphine. 25." "Our works are clean, house rules if you bring your own." "Shoot up here where we can see, eh?" "After that, mi casa es su casa." "You need help?" "Have a good time there, friend." " You're so beautiful." " Oh, whoa, dude." "No." "You touch my girl... this is what you'll get, you fucking lowlife!" "Easy!" "I'm fuckin' blind!" "I'm fuckin' blinded!" "Hey, we've never had a killing, not an O.D., no AIDS, no nothing." "And I don't plan on starting now." "What are you, a fucking social worker?" "Relax, Donny." "We're supposed to be exclusive." "If you don't like my way, take the good money I pay you and go." "Maybe I should." "And work at a convenience store somewhere?" "Wash dishes?" "You can pay support for two women, three kids on that." "You never talk about my kids, you understand me?" "There is no out." "Come on, let's get things ready for my party, okay?" "Donny." "Come on." "Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, please." "Hello?" "Hello?" "What did you want?" "Look..." "I know this is gonna sound weird, but..." "Shoot" "Seriously, how did you kick?" "My kids." "I did it for them." "I didn't know you had kids." "There's some things that I need to tell you." "All right, let's party." "Come on, yeah, yeah." "Whoo!" " Oh, that's too much." " You shouldn't have." "Happy birthday." "Happy birthday." "Thank you, thank you." "Hey, where's my girl?" "Where's Jan?" "I don't know." "I didn't see her." "Fuck!" "We got a problem!" "Hey!" "What the fuck, man?" "!" "What the fuck are you doing?" "Come on." "What the fuck?" "!" "Fuck!" "Don't shoot!" "You'll hit her!" "Come on, we can catch up." "Fuck!" "Okay, I got her." "Wonderful." "We're so relieved." "All right, where's the drop-off?" " Drive north." " How far?" "It's best that the location is unknown in case you're being followed." "I better be paid when I get there." "You will." "And one more thing." "Returning home will be very emotional for her." "So, what, don't tell her anything?" "Right." "The pills in the vial are sedatives." "They should help her stay calm." "Okay, I got one more thing, too." "Which is?" "After this, I gotta get scarce for a long time," " so I'll take 50." " 50?" "Do you have any idea what it's like to lose a child?" " You've got one hour." " How could you..." "How the fuck did this happen?" "Four fucking doormen we pay." "Calm down." "You fucked her, you useless fuck." "Hey, hey, hey." "It was a party." "Your party." "You had a clear shot, homeboy." "Where's your pretty little gun?" "I don't have it today." "Okay, what, are you gonna beat me up too?" "Put out word." "I want to know where he lives, who he's working with." "Okay." "Oh..." "Hey!" "Hey!" "There's some water in there... clothes in the bag." "Put them on." " You." " Just do it." "What...?" "Look, I'm not gonna hurt you." "You call fuckin' kidnapping someone not hurting them?" "If you don't make any noise." "You do what I say." "I'm not doing anything you say, buddy, okay?" "Let's get that straight." "We'll see." "And anything you do try, you're gonna get ten times over up your ass when my friends find you." "Just put on the clothes." "Hey, lover boy?" "I'm not putting on any of your fun fetish gear until I get some fucking answers, so let me out of here." "Let me out of here, you pervert." "Listen." "You make me come in there, you go back to sleep, you got it?" "Now put the fucking clothes on." "Got a thing for grannies?" "Great." "You got to look respectable." "Humph." "I'd be a little more worried about yourself if I were you, 'cause you just bought yourself a nightmare." "I'm only the beginning." "10-23 Charlie Zone, report shots fired." "Report shots fired." "223, are you 10-8?" "Brava?" "Do you copy?" "Word is out." "Everyone we know is looking for them." " What else?" " That Ontario plate is bullshit." "All we can do is wait." "He's working for someone local, only so many places to go..." "Sprytown, Dartmouth, Preston." "Yeah." "Boys fixed your tires." "Come on." "Hey, someone sees the car, they're gonna call us." "So I wait by the phone like a fucking high school boy?" "Come on, lock up." "You're gonna drive blind?" "I mean, there's a fucking business..." "You tell me about my fucking business?" "This is business too." "Let's hit the fucking road, huh?" "10-17 in Highveld Park, report man injured." "Assailant armed with ax..." "Got a real eye for fashion." "Better than looking at your arms." "Never did get your name." "It doesn't matter." "Didn't by chance bring anything to take the edge off, did you?" "Huh?" ""Kicker," man." ""Ox"?" " Need a hit." " Nope." "Fuck, this keeps getting better and better." "You shouldn't smoke." "I thought all you Indians had a case of illegal smokes in the trunk." "You know what I've got in my trunk?" " What?" " Bodies." "Come on, man, you must have something." "Morph, dillies?" " Don't use." " I saw you shoot up." " Oh, you saw me, did you?" " Yeah." "Hey, "Chief Red Bull,"" "think about how I'm gonna use the bathroom?" "When you're done with the water... the bottle will be empty." "That's filthy." "Well, I'm sure you've done way worse." "So if you're not planning to rape me, what are we doing here?" " Can you tell me that?" " Nope." "Why not just let me go?" "You can still save yourself." "For that girl you left." "Huh?" "That nice leather coat says you once had money, but those boots and that shitty car..." "which is likely why you're doing this." "You talk white and walk like a convict." "She didn't wait, huh?" "Hmm." "Save it." "By tonight you'll be someone else's problem." "Whose problem?" "I don't know names." "Look, if you're from Montreal, I can explain everything, okay?" "But they're gonna take me with them, and..." " I can't leave the city." " Oh, yeah?" "Yeah." "Something I got to do." "Something big." "And... just..." "I'm not..." "I'm not ready yet." "Almost, but..." "You know what I mean?" "Yeah, she s about 58 she's pretty, brunette." "All right, let me know if you see her." "Any girl, they could have taken." "Who are my enemies?" "Tell me." "You ever wonder if the enemy is hers?" "The word just came back about a custy in Montreal who burned a bike gang for 12 Gs and skipped town." " So?" " So... some biker's been seen around, not local patch." "Fuck Montreal." "Think they can take over the city, fuck 'em." " I'm just saying." " What are you saying?" "Look, what I'm saying is I think we should know who we're dealing with." "I know I love her." "Fuckin' kidding me." "I said one hour." "It's been almost three." "We're trying." "Look, we don't even have enough money for her rehabilitation." ""Red Bull"!" "Yo!" "Listen, I let her go, you guys are out 10 Gs." " No more bullshit, okay?" "Hey!" "Hey, who are you talking to?" "Hey!" "What the fuck is your problem?" " Do you know what time it is?" " Yeah." "It's time to tape your mouth." "Try it." "But I bite, you know." "There's all those diseases a girl like me might have... hep C, AIDS, rabies." "I'll cut you a break if you do something for me." " You'll cut me a break?" " Mm-hmm." "By the way the light falls, it's got to be past 4:00." " Right?" ""$0?" "So at 4:00 they draw the weekly jackpot for Lotto Fever." "Got to give me the numbers." "How the fuck am I supposed to do that?" "Text *4587 on your cell." "If I do this, you keep your voice down... way down, you got it?" "Maybe." "Oh, fuck, is that what I think it is...?" "And... you put the clothes on." "Deal." "Deal." " Six, nine..." " Mm-hmm." " 12..." " Hold on, you're going too fast." " Six..." " Uh-huh." "Nine, 12, 29." "Yes!" "Motherfucker, in your face!" "Don't tell me you won." "Yeah!" "20 bucks." " Fuckin' waste of time." " Not this one." "I win way more than I lose." "Here... give me the chalk." "What for?" "Come on, it's chalk." "Very nonlethal." "Might make you money someday." "Thanks." "Okay." "So, you see, you got a set of "N" elements, and then you have your subset of favorable elements where small "N" is less than or equal to big "N," okay?" "So probability is equation between total cases and favorable cases." "You with me?" "Junkie that's good in math." "Your parents must be proud." "I don't have any parents." "Hey!" "What?" "I can even pay you to let me go." "Oh, yeah." "With your lottery winnings?" "Yeah." "There's more." "Got bank accounts." "I've been saving for years." "And stealing, right?" "Maybe." " Yeah." "All right, we're ready." "$50,000." "You got it all?" "Yes." "We're not wealthy people." "We had to negotiate a loan." " It was not easy." " Well, get used to it." "She says she doesn't have any parents." "Jan is adopted." "It doesn't mean she's loved any less." "Whatever." "Where are we gonna do this?" "All right." "We have to be very careful." "Drive north to Fall River." "There's a gas station at the highway ramp." "Call us when you get there, we'll arrange the rest." " The sooner the better." "Let me talk to them." "All right." "Let's go." "We're leaving." "Back to Montreal, huh?" "Listen..." "I open this door... if you don't fuck around, I'll give you the stuff, okay?" "You don't know what they'll make me do to pay them off." "You turn around." "Turn around!" "Stick out your hands." "You actually trust them?" "You better watch yourself, Red Bull." "You know what?" "Shut your fucking mouth." "I've heard enough of you." "Not a fucking sound out of you, you got it?" "Yeah?" "Excuse me, we have some oil and glass out here." "It has to get cleaned up." "Okay, will do." "Not a fucking sound." "You don't know, but you're fucking everything up." "I had a plan." "Oh, yeah, to do what?" "Get clean." "Get out." "I've seen you on a hundred corners." "Everyone tries, but almost nobody makes it." "And for somebody who knows the odds, you can probably guess... neither will you." "Not everything is simple." "Except for Indians, right?" "And stop calling me "Chief Red Bull. "" "You're no one..." "just like me." " Avery." " Been a while." " Still in the life?" " Not for long." " Outside's harder." " Business good?" "Better lately." "Hey, I'll get there someday, huh?" "Open my ouzeri." "This a social thing?" "It's a "no questions" thing." "Okay, get up." "No bullshit, okay?" "Can I keep my blanket?" "I've had it forever." "I have really bad circulation." "Oof!" "422 Alpha Tango Hotel..." "Fuck." "Classy place." "Yeah." "Well, it's much better than where you were." "I'm serious." "A bed without three fucking people in it, like, stoned or puking on the floor." "We won't be here long." "Hey, can I have a shower?" "Well, you want me to look respectable, right?" "Three minutes." "You know, for scum, you're not so bad." "Ow!" "Bet she'll miss you when you're dead." "Where are you?" " Travelers Motel, Unit 2." "So you think you're smart." " Safe." " Don't leave for any reason." "Her parents will pick her up shortly." " With the money." " Of course." "Give her the pills so that this goes smoothly." "All right." "One minute." " One minute." " Don't rush me!" "Don't get too comfortable." "Let me enjoy this a while." "You fuckin' kidding me?" "The TV doesn't work?" "People don't come here to watch TV." "So what about that hit you promised me?" "I'm dying here." "Something's happening." "Give me your car keys!" "How did you get that?" "Now, fucker!" "You're holding it wrong." "Give them to me." "Move!" "Look, I'll pay it all back, okay?" "You picked the wrong fucking hotel, eh, Indian man." "Huh?" "It's ours now." "Times change, my friend." "I thought he was with you." "You're in debt to Pop." "He don't like being made a fool of." "I've got the money, okay?" "Just let me call my friends." "Eh-hh, nothing but fucking lies from this burn bitch." "Think we're fucking stupid, eh?" "You take me back, no matter what you do, I'll just run again." "You'll be lucky if you fucking walk again, eh?" "But for your new life, you won't need to be standing up much." "Who are you with?" "Hmm?" "This is not a part..." "Taser, take her to next fucking room and disconnect the phone too." "Already done." "Okay." "Good moves." "We would have got her somehow, you saved us the trouble." "But we don't save you." "No." "We're gonna have some fun, me and you." "You look pretty fucking scary now, huh?" "I'll be home soon." "A couple of days, maybe." "Hey, new patch, when you want him to sing loud, you pour beer." "Keep it down a fucking sec." "My wife and kid on the phone, ostie." "Okay." "Usually we don't do the head, they pass out too fast... but he's big." "A gold tooth, ostie." "Give me the pliers." "Open wide, Indian man." "I'm the fucking tooth fairy." "Open his mouth." "I'm the tooth fairy, huh?" "Can you stop it?" "Oof!" "Grab me the fucking nailer." "Fucking tough guy, eh?" "Eh?" "Eh?" "Yeah!" "You won't fucking do that again!" "No, eh?" "Stop it!" "Stop doing that." "You Okay?" "You stop it!" "Why are you doing that to him?" "The new kid, he needs practice." " Fuckin' stop it." " Who cares about him, hmm?" "Fucking savage kicked my balls." "You kiss 'em... make 'em better." "Pop won't like it if you touch me." "The boss." "He's kind." "And my reward for finding you... is you, chére." " Hmm?" " It's not true." "I'm glad you brought that up." "I learned a lot chasing you down." "You burned half the fucking country." "A lot more than that too, huh?" "So now we play a game... so you learn not to lie..." "To your new man." "I said, fucking stand up, ostie." "Get the fuck up, eh?" "Watch him." "I need to take a shit." "He's not moving." "One bullet left." "Every fucking lie, I shoot" "We'll start with an easy one." "Maybe not so easy for you." "What's your name?" "Hmm?" " Huh?" " Carmen." "Non, non, non." "I didn't ask your fucking name in Calgary or fucking Toronto, did I, eh?" "Who the fuck are you, eh?" "Do you fucking remember even?" "You fucking little fucking burn bitch, eh?" " Who the fuck are you?" " I don't know!" "I don't know!" "No..." "Huh?" "The fuck?" "Jean-Guy?" "Jean-Guy?" "I wouldn't get another one wrong if I was you, nameless one." "How the hell do you know Pops Bishop?" "Hmm?" "Hmm?" "I don't know." "Come on, come on!" "I don't know." "Where are you?" " I'm at the Travelers Motel..." " Hang up the phone." " They tried to kill me." " Hang up the phone!" "Who has you?" "Who's with you?" "Tal's coming." "Yeah, you stole from him, too." "What happens when he finds out?" "You have something to do." "You want to beat the odds?" "This is your chance." "I'll meet her!" "Donny, come on!" "Let's go." "Let's go." "Let's go, I want to go." "Come on." "Come on." "HOW long?" "Minutes." "Go!" "Go!" "Yeah?" "What happened?" "Is she safe?" "She's okay." "What happened to the damn transfer?" "!" "They saw that something was happening, they got scared." "Why didn't you tell me other people were after her?" "We didn't know." " It's not over." "They're behind us." "Tell me where they are, I'll go to them." "I want this done with, and fast!" "Okay." "Just get out of sight until they're off your trail." " You saved me in there." " You're worth money." "So you beat him." "You electrocuted him... and you nailed his foot to the floor." "Oui." "Jesus." "A capable man." " Where were you?" " I found him in his own puke." "No sign of the owner." "This guy was in here with her." "You heard nothing?" "Music was loud." "It covered... it covered up... the..." "Hey." "HEY" "Next I go to Montreal." "I'll fuck your wife... give your kid a real dad, eh?" "No!" "Why are we stopping?" "They'll know where I live." "I got to get off the street, though." "You need help." "Look in the bag and get the ribbon off." "Use the matches." "Don't lose this." " Like that?" " Uh-huh." "Yeah." "Thank you." "What is the name on this?" "Avery" " You're a pro?" " For a minute." "Rich guys made me a setup card for their "white hopes. "" "Then what?" "Went for the money." "Went to prison four years." "Drifted until I was..." "Down here, with me." "I get paid from this, I'm gone." "What if it's too late?" "Maybe." "You're taking me home, aren't you?" "We're losing time, eh?" "I'll call you back." "Hey." "Look, we just started a war here, do you know that?" " Who is this man?" " That's bad news." "College-educated gold medal fighter," "Then he does four years at Springhill on a smuggling rap and he beats up the whole prison." " Scared of him?" " That's not the point." "Look, we have a business to run, okay?" "That girl, she's not part of it." "Okay?" "For all we know, she's scamming us too, man." " Be careful, Donny." " Look man, you'll forget her in a week." " Cut her loose." " She's everything." "I know it now." "I chose this life, okay?" "I did not sign up for this love shit that you're on." "Jan is my home." "You want to talk about home?" "Do you have any idea how much money and work we have sitting at the house right now just waiting for somebody to come in and rip us off?" "I'm gonna need that hit now." "Hey, at least you can go back." "Not everyone can." "You're not what I expected." "Neither are you." "I guess at some point I knew you were taking me home, but I just... didn't want to believe it." "Real good at that." "It's okay." "The water is beautiful, huh?" "You know that humans are mostly made up of water?" "65.6% or something." "Hey, you okay?" "Does that mean that we're mostly good?" "Even if we do really awful things?" "'Cause I wish that that was true, but I don't think it is." "I don't understand you." "I can't go back." "I'm not ready." "Let's try to sleep." "Hey!" "I see you." "Fuck you!" " Yeah." "How is she?" "Asleep." "I gave her the pills." "Good." "Her parents are waiting." "Your phone has been sent the directions." " All right." " Meet them there, and they'll give you the rest of your fee." "Hey." "We're here." "I'm Jan's mom." "Come in, please." "I can take her from here." "She's breathing funny." " Don't worry, I'm a nurse." "Do you have any first aid?" "Are you her dad?" "Yeah." "You got my money?" "Who's paying you?" "Who's paying you?" "Same one's paying you." "What the fuck is this?" "She wants her to disappear with no trace." "You too." "No." "Wake up!" "Wake up!" " Hello." " You want her dead." "Why?" "I won't bother to explain a complex situation that you won't understand." "I still got her, so I better start understanding fast!" "We have many resources." "Think carefully about your next move." "How's this..." "I take her to the nearest fucking cop shop and we all take our chances?" "Then you might find yourself an accomplice in this," " if they listened at all." " Why am I supposed to disappear?" "No one would miss you." "The parents?" "A disposal team from out of town, very specialized." " I don't fucking get this." " Girls like her disappear all the time." "Is she really any loss?" "But you..." "may have value." "Considering the new situation, for twice the offered amount... you could dispose of this yourself." "Get a doctor, we need help!" " Avery?" " Help the girl." "You should have called the police." "I have to get sutures." "Kelly?" "She needs a minute." "You're a bit of a shock." "David." " How long have I been here?" " About a day." "David told me he found an injured dog by the side of the road." "Imagine my surprise." "You did it." "You're a vet." "And you're a mess." "There's a scalp wound I have to close." " Are you sure you can do this?" " It's not my specialty, but..." "Try not to cry like the Jack Russell I stitched last week." " Where is Jan?" " Your friend was poisoned." "She was slipping into a coma." "If it had been a little later..." "But she's safe?" "Yeah." "Along with your concussion, a tendon is severed in your foot and just a bullet wound through your shoulder." "You were lucky it went clean through." "You have more contusions, burns and minor cuts than I can even count." "Looks like you've really gotten your life together." "I'm surprised you're here." "Because any educated, half-white girl would have left long ago?" "Hey." "Are you going to see Nathan?" "Not like this." "The chief is not a well man." "Some of us can't wait forever." "Sit up." "I have to check on your friend." "It's been almost 10 years." "What did you expect?" "Well, she seems to be doing well." "Wouldn't call it "well," exactly." "Divorced last year." "They want her to run for Band Council." "What the hell happened to you?" "I can't stay here." "There's people looking for us." "Who?" "No one's seen the car." "She could be in another country by now." "The bike gang will be calling." "You need to be ready for that." "Yeah." "Maybe you want this back for protection." " Where did..." " The motel." "What I've been wondering all night is... how it got there." "You said you didn't have it when I asked you, but there it is." " She came to me." " Did you fuck her, Donny?" " For help." " For what?" "Huh?" "Make a fool of me?" ""Cut her loose," you said." ""A thief," you said." "This "love shit"?" "Did you set this whole thing up?" "There's some things that I need to tell you." "What?" "These are photos of me when I was little." "With some important men." "They're kinda like insurance if something happens to us." "No." "I knew that people were coming for her, and I know you, so I gave her that for protection." "Do you know what it's like to lose, Donny... the best things in life you never had?" "Yeah, I do." "Then why?" "Why do this to a friend?" "Why?" "Because we're gone." "Man... we're still young, man, but we are gone." "Okay, before I die..." "likely by violence... man, there was a chance to do something." "To try, to help them get out." "Fuck." "Who's "them"?" "What...?" "Donny, what do you know?" "Not everything." "Easy, easy." "You know who this is?" "From the paper?" " Who...?" " It's too big for us." "Who is he?" "Where is he?" "You're not going." "It stops now, my friend." "All of it." "Fuck you!" "I'm so sorry." "I'm so..." "I'm sorry." "Here we are." "I got nowhere else to go." "Avery, come with me." "Put this on." "Withdrawal." "She's sick." "Been having nightmares." "I need a hit, someone give me a hit." "I can't." "Please." "First, I get answers." "Who are you?" "No one." "Why do these people want you dead?" "If I tell you, will you get me a hit?" "I'll try to find something around here if you talk." "I was only three... when my father bought me." "What?" "From a children's aid society." " How... how could...?" " Money." "Connections." "What did he do?" "For a while, nothing." "It fit his image... a kind diplomat who adopts a Polish orphan from overseas." "I had the best of everything." "Private tutors, dance classes... everything that I wanted." "But why else do men buy children?" "You ran?" "I thought that someday, you know, if I could save enough... steal enough, win enough..." "I could get clean." "And stay clean." " And buy her back." " Buy who back?" "I left my baby." "It's her weight... and her birthday." "You have to help me get her back." "Please." "I'll pay you... just please help me get her back." "Please." "Please." "Please help me get her back," "I need her back, I can't get her back." "Please." "Please!" "Don't go!" "Please!" "Wondered if you'd ever drop by." "You heard." "After near a decade, my grandson shows up with a white girl on one arm, and a bullet hole in the other." "It's kinda news around here." " Kelly told me you're..." " Dying." " You don't look so bad." " Better than you." "What are you doing with that?" "To you, I'm leaving the land." "To the Band, my stories." "Kids here, they got nothing to do but dope and rap songs." "Well, you said your goodbye." "I'm in something big." "I don't know what to do." " She's all alone." " Tell me about it." "I'm talking to a fucking iPod instead of a grandson." "Telling stories... about how you can do anything?" "How you can conquer the world?" "That shit?" "The world doesn't want us... except to disappear." "That's the match you ran away from." "I disgraced everyone." "How could I come back?" ""Disgrace"?" "I'll show you disgrace." "...Jesus." "Just look at that weak lead." "Did I teach you to drop your guard like that?" "Huh?" "Huh?" "Come on." "I'm in a fight I can't win." "It's not even mine." "What she needs is..." "A trainer." "These stories are all that will remain of my line." "These are the tales a black-haired boy loved to hear so long ago." "For him, great spirits once played in the world around the center fire." "The circle doesn't move." "We move away from the circle." "All around it is the dark." "Whew..." "David!" " David, we have to leave." " Not yet." "I want to show you something." "Easiest one." "No safety." "Just point and pull, no recoil." "Might help with the negotiations if she knows how to use it." "How much?" "Good to see you back in a fight." "Okay, hold it in the web of your palm... square it to the target." "Line up your thumb with the barrel straight down, pull the hammer back." "Okay, go." "Are you sure you're ready?" "I came back for this." "I was too scared to move." "I know the feeling." "Make it your advantage." "Sometimes when I was brave enough..." "I'd call from the pay phone, praying she might pick up." "That's how they found you." "She'd be almost seven now." "If it's anything like me, he hasn't touched her yet." "They like a certain age." ""They"?" "When I got older... too old..." "I'd..." "I'd go on exchanges, sleepovers." "Jesus." "The poor ones trade pictures and the rich ones trade live kids." "There's a bishop in Québec, a judge in Ontario." "I had photos, but I lost them." "Why didn't you ever tell anyone?" "These people own everything and everyone." "If you're no one... no one listens." "Are you ready?" "I'm just a corner guy this time." "I have gone to extraordinary lengths to fix this." "I've crossed every moral and ethical and legal line to clean up the disgusting mess that you and your cronies created." "And now I am as guilty as any of you." "I want to see her." "Please." "Let them come." "This can't exist, Dad." "Or none of the good that you've done or I will do will ever matter." "Hello." "It's quite something to see you." "Well, she's supposed to be dead, so I guess it is a surprise." "What's become of you, Jannie?" "Don't call me that." "You're still my little girl." "Then why?" "My people have been very zealous in protecting me and the others, of course." "It wasn't my idea." "It was never my idea." "I don't understand." "Neither did they." "They tried to tell me that our love was wrong... and that someday you would return to do me harm." "And when I heard you'd come back, I believed it was true." "But you could never hurt me... could you, Jannie?" "I came here for my daughter." "Where is she?" "Safe and happy." "Where is she?" "Tell her what she wants." "Here is the balance of the $50,000." "You can go now." "I'm paid to be here..." "by her." "Put the gun down, Jannie... and come home." "I don't have one." "You do." "Let me show you." " Hello, sweetheart." " Hello, Daddy." "Did you finish piano practice?" "Uh-huh." "Tell these people your name." "Lily." "Daddy, I'm thirsty." "There you go." "You are thirsty." "Now... what are you going to be when you grow up?" "A ballerina." "You are so perfect." "She's smart, gifted... like you." "Okay." "It's bedtime now." "Yes." "Time for you to scoot off to bed, darling." "We grown-ups have some things to discuss." "Come home, Janeska." "Be her mother." "No." "You are the devil." "You're the devil." "How can that be?" "I gave you a name, a station in life, and my heart." "What more could any daughter want?" "I will disappear..." "just like you want," "I will never come back, but I am taking her with me." "I'll buy her... just like you bought me." "I have about $30,000." "Jannie, not at any price." " I'm her mother." " And I'm her father." "You...!" "If you ever touched her..." "Never." "Has anyone?" " Has anyone?" " Jannie!" "I would give you anything if you would stay here with us." "Lily needs you." "I'm sorry, okay?" "I didn't know what to do." "I was scared, I ran." " We forgive you." " You forgive me?" "You forgive me?" "!" "Please, Jan." "Is this truly what you want?" "Then let Daddy help you." "I love you." "Go find her." "Go find her." "Ready?" "Come on." "Let's go... on a big car ride." "Do you like car rides?" "I like car rides." "Step in and watch your head." "Put your seat belt on." "Do you want your doll in?" "No?" "Okay." "All right." "Good?" "Okay, I'll be back in just a second." " Not too late, is it?" " No." " Where will you go?" " Where no one will find us." "I'll send you your money." " I can't." " You need it." "Like hitting the lottery, eh?" "I have something I have to do, too." "If you need any help staying clean or with anything, call me." "O'wela'lin... thank you." "Open the fuckin' door, buddy!" "You want some?" "Buddy, come on." "Hey, what the fuck, man?" "I've got nothing." "I've gotta go." "Donny, come on." "We're buying some shit, man!" "Donny, where you going?" "# Sad eyes... #" "Christ." "I'm gonna need a gym before we build your goddamned gym."
