"When I said the earth was moving," "I didn't mean literally." "I'm disappointed." "Not for long." "I can make you happy." "23:30." "23:30." "You got 15 minutes." "Why does Langley want Kitover so bad?" "'Cause he's a top Soviet chemist." "Urquhart thinks he's working on something big." "Sunitska..." "When this one's over, I want you to come with me." "Can you handle me 24 hours a day?" "You have 14 minutes." "Alec, da?" "Arkady Kitover." "What you're doing, Alec, is a great thing, not just for me, but for the whole world." "I want you to know that." "You don't believe me." "Let's just say I've heard a lot of talk about saving the world, doc." "I understand." "You're cynical." "In your profession, I would be, too." "Shit... we've got a shadow." "I don't see anything." "Back there." "The lights are off." "What is the problem?" "We got a tail, doc." "Tell me you're as important as Urquhart says you are." "Good, 'cause I'd hate to die for the Colonel's secret recipe." "Hang on." " Damn it!" " Can't we outrun them?" "Sonya, head for the safe house on Leninskij Prospekt." " Alec" " Just go." "We don't have a choice." "He's priority one." "I'll be okay." "You know what to do." "Alec, be careful." "Go." "Sonya." "Room service." "Man:" "Do you like baseball..." "Mr. Carville?" "When I was a boy..." "I was a big fan of American baseball." "All I wanted to do was play in the major leagues for the Red Sox." "Red Sox suck." "They haven't won a series since Ruth went to the Yankees." "Let's just say I like to root for the underdog." "Now a word about the rules." "Every time you answer incorrectly, or refuse to answer, that's a strike." "Tell me what I want to know, you take a base." "Are we clear?" "What if I hit a home run?" "The chemist... where is he?" "Somewhere... between here... and there." "Strike one." "You have an accomplice:" "Red Fox." "Who is she?" "Your sister." "Strike two!" "You are in a bad way, my friend." "Tell me what I want to know... and you can the spend the rest of the inning on the bench." "What difference does it make?" "I'm eating pine anyway..." "Basil..." "Bellanin." "I see we have files on each other, "Chameleon."" "You don't mind if I use your code name, do you?" "Go ahead..." "Big Bird." "Where did you" "Your wife... likes to talk in my favorite position." "Strike three." "You are gonna regret that, I promise." "Talking back to an official." "I'm afraid you're out of the game!" "Alec:" "An interesting piece..." "Self portrait." "It's so dark..." "Sonya:" "I create what I feel." "Alec:" "Danger." "I feel sadness..." "sadness for my country." "Sunitska... one day you and your country will be free..." "Close the door on the way out... good looking." "How're we feeling today, Alec, hmm?" "Good." "Glad to hear it." "It's March 21st today." "March 21st." "Special day." "Do you know why?" "Hmm?" "Aww..." "It is vernal equinox." "First day of spring." "Everything... is about to change." "But I suppose... nothing ever changes in here, does it?" "If it will make you feel any better..." "I've had quite a change of fortune lately." "And in a way," "I have you to thank for it." "Alec!" "Doktor." "Da." "Pardon me." "I don't know you." "Man on intercom:" "Da?" "I'm looking for Sonya Orlova." "Just a moment." "Sonya?" "Sonya..." "Pardon me." "Wakey-wakey." "I apologize for the restraints." "When a man's had his first taste of freedom in a long time, there's no telling how he'll react to being held against his will." "Bellanin." "I thought I smelled your style." "Robert Alec Carville," "CIA." "A genuine cold warrior." "Like a stone age mosquito preserved in amber." "A living, breathing fossil of a dead age." "I didn't know the KGB was into paleontology." "The KGB no longer exists, my friend." "I see you don't believe me." "Do you know how long you were in that cell?" "11 years." "Things have changed while you were gone." "America won the cold war, the Soviet Union collapsed... and I went into business for myself." "Don't tell me... you bought the Red Sox." "An interesting idea." "Actually, I'm in shipping." "Import-export." "A smuggler." "I prefer the term "Commodities broker,"" "but you are correct." "I run my operation from this side of the Atlantic, and I enjoy season's tickets to both the Sox... and the symphony." "And these two?" "Unemployed cellists... or your designated hitters?" "Norvid and Iashin used to work for Spetsnaz." "Now they work for me." "The job is the same." "But the pay is better." "Shut up." "I arranged your escape, Alec." "The drugs they were giving you were replaced with a placebo." "I had someone on the inside take care of it." "I'm supposed to be grateful for that?" "You put me in there." "And I can send you back." "We knew you'd come looking for her." "You know where she is?" "Quid... pro... quo, Alec." "Sonya..." "Do as I say, and the Red Fox does not become extinct." "Let me see her." "You have seen her." "When the job is done, you will both be free to go." "You have my word." "Your word." "You break it... and I will break you." "You should learn to be... more trusting, Alec." "After all..." "I'm the only friend you have left." "Understood?" "Understood." "Come." "I have something to show you." "Voilà." "The original is called "Spring."" "Now it's in the vault at the Atlantic Global Bank in Boston." "In two days, the owner will come to collect it." "I want your help to obtain it before that happens." "You want me to help you obtain this... painting?" "I was planning to simply switch it with this copy, but the svoloch moved it to a more secure location before my people could act." "The painting was recently purchased by a rather flamboyant American billionaire by the name of Felix J. Grady." "He made his fortune in the oil business, and now dabbles in communications." "The resemblance is remarkable, Chameleon." "With a little work and your talent... no one would be able to tell the difference." "Like you said, it's been 11 years." "What if I'm a little rusty?" "You can handle it." "Grady has a reputation for running on his own schedule." "This time, you're a day early." "You walk right into the bank... and walk right out with the painting." "That's easy for you to say." "Easy for you to do." "The painting for Sonya." "The choice is yours." "I think you will find the guest room cozy after your recent accommodations." "The liquor cabinet is fully stocked." "I recommend the cognac." "It's '89." "A very good year." "Well... for some of us." "Oh, and, uh... big brother is watching." "There's some homework on the table for you." "Good night." "'89 sucked." "Felix J. Grady." "Smokes a good cigar." "Thank you very much." "I'd like to thank Colin for that fine introduction." "He's gonna get a raise tomorrow." "I can't tell you how proud I am to be here today at the christening of our first satellite of our new communication division." "I-- ahem-- We named it in my honor, the Grady Star!" "Grady Star." ""The Grady Star!"" "Mm-mm." "Just look at her." "Fine piece of machinery she is, mm-mm." "One day we'll be able to control the skies with this puppy." "I like to call her my ticket to fly." ""My ticket to fly."" "Thank you, thank you, thank you very much." "Like my daddy always told me, he said, "Sonny, as long as you got power and a whole lot of money, everybody loves you..." "especially the honeys."" "Thank you, all." "Thank you all very much." "Grady's own mother wouldn't be able to tell you apart." "His mistress, maybe." "I'm sure you know what this is." "Put it on." "The bank will want a scan of your thumbprint." "Don't worry, my people have already penetrated their computer." "They will make sure the system thinks it's a match." "What happens if your people aren't as good as you think they are?" "I prefer to play the odds." "Like we say in Russia," ""Kak dva pal'tsa obossat."" ""Piece of cake."" "Right." "Testing... testing..." "One, two, three." " Josef?" " Reading you." " Gregor?" " Da." "Carville?" "I think there's something wrong with mine." "All I hear is an irritating voice." "Remember why you are here, Alec, and what will happen if you fail." "Y'all just keep the car runnin', you hear?" "Excuse me." "Can I help you, sir?" "Mm-mm." "The better question is, can I help you?" "Felix J. Grady at your service." "And if I may be of service..." "Uh, Mr. Grady, I'll let Vicky" "I mean, Miss Best, my boss" "I'll let her know you're here." "You do that." "And when you call, you call me collect now, you hear?" "Mm-mm." "Perhaps just a little less charm." "Anytime you'd like to take over, you just let me know." "Just concentrate... on the task at hand." "Relax, boys!" "They ain't got varmints in New England like we gots back home." "Fella can walk into a bank without worryin' he's gonna get caught in the middle of a stickup." "Good afternoon." "You made a friend." "First time?" "Very amusing." "Mr. Grady." "Yes, ma'am." "I'm Vicky Best, VP International Accounts." "A pleasure to make your acquaintance." "We heard about your change of schedule." "Yes." "I... must apologize for that." "No, that's fine." "My office is upstairs." "Shall we?" "Certainly." "Uhh... excuse me." "Maybe you should wait here until we're done." "We don't want to... intimidate the lady, if you know what I mean." "Let him go." "Sorry about that." "Can I get you a coffee, tea?" "Coffee." "Yes, coffee would be wonderful." "Oh, Lynn, will you get coffee for Mr. Grady?" "This shouldn't take long, Mr. Grady." "Please, have a seat." "After you." "Okay." "I am going to need to see some picture ID and your Social Security card, please." "I'm... very sorry about this." "The client did insist." "I understand perfectly." "After all, rules are rules." "I think you'll rather enjoy that picture." "Are you okay?" "Yes." "Spendin' my money always makes me tense." "I can't even imagine having this much money to spend." " Lynn, is that you?" " Yes, Miss Best." "Come on in." "You are doing well, Alec." "Why, thank you, sweetheart." "Okay... now..." "If I could just get you to put your right thumb on the glass, please." "Great." "Okay." "Just a few more minutes." "Last step." "Now, if I could just get you to enter your password, we'll be done." "My password?" "Mm-hmm." "We need more time." "Keep her talking a little longer." "So soon?" "I was hoping that we could chat a little longer, get to know each other a little better." "It appears spending money also turns you into a bit of a flirt, Mr. Grady." "You know, they say that danger is the ultimate aphrodisiac." "Now, I think that's a load of hogwash myself." "Personally, I don't think you need danger... to be horny." "Are you going to enter your password, or are we gonna continue discussing your love life?" "Stall her." "My password." "So many things to forget in life." "My password... is not one." "Not yet!" "We have a firewall that just came down and shut us out." "My people are already routing." "Five seconds." "That was close." "Great." "I'm glad to see she's... never far from your mind." "No..." "no, she's not." " I beg your pardon?" " Nothing." "Just an end-total thought." "Ah." "That's it." "Congratulations." "Thank you." "Shall we go to the vault?" "Darlin', I will follow you anywhere." "One of you go with him." "Stay here." "That's all right, Dick." "I can handle this by myself." "I think Sonya would want him to go along," "Mr. Grady." "You know, on second thought... maybe you should join us." "A little culture never hurt anyone, especially you." "You don't mind, do you?" "No, that's just fine." "Good." "So where do you call home when you're not jetsetting around?" "Fort Worth." "But I was born in a little town in Tennessee." "Tennessee?" "That's the home of Davy Crockett." "Those are some big shoes to fill." "One day you and your country will be free." "I don't suppose you could tell me who the previous owner was." "No." "I never met them." "All of our transactions for this client have been done through an offshore corporation." "Is that a fact?" "Mm-hmm." "Oh, my." "Relationship between the artist and the applications of colors seem rather hurried, and yet there's a raw, hidden talent here." "You're not having second thoughts, are you, Mr. Grady?" "Mr. Grady?" "Hm?" "Oh, no." "No, no, not at all." "Believe me... it is a lifesaver." "Carville, can you read me?" "Alec, Josef, get out of there." "It's Grady." "The real Grady just arrived." "Gregor, they must not be able to hear me down in the vault." "Get them out of there." "Hurry!" " Josef!" " Da?" " He's here!" " Who?" "Grady!" "We have to leave now!" "Oh, my, look at the time." "I do hate to cut this short, but we do have a previous engagement on the other side of town." "Hope you don't think me rude." "No." "Uh, I am going to need you to sign this form" "No problem." "Have it sent to my office." "What kinda cheap parlor trick is this?" "Must be Halloween, boys, 'cause we got ourselves an impostor!" "Now, that's funny!" "That guy's a total jerk." "What in the hell is going on in there?" "Somebody answer me!" "I need that painting." "Don't just stand there." "Would you do something?" "Okay..." "Everybody... on the floor!" "Employees:" "No, no!" "Do it now!" "Did you hear me?" "I said, on the floor!" "Now!" "Norvid?" "Don't do it." "It's not worth it." "Shit!" "Teach you to mess with me, you sumbitch!" "Yee-haw!" "Now this is the way I like it!" "Hey!" "Where you going?" "Stay down!" "Too late." "Get us out of here!" "Get down!" "Freeze!" "Police!" "Damn!" "Guess I'm on my own!" "Stick your head out, boy, and let me pick it off." "Where'd you go, you snake in the grass?" "You lookin' for me, hoss?" "Basil...?" "Basil!" "Where is he?" "Gone." "Ohh..." "I'll take that, Mr. Grady." "Well, ain't this a pickle?" "Not much of a square dance, is it?" "What do we do now?" "Close the blinds." "If they can't see us, they can't shoot us, Grisha." "Go!" "All right, nice and easy." "Easy..." " Easy, men..." " Someone's coming out!" "Down!" "Take cover!" "Norvid:" "Let's go!" "Move!" "Come on, move!" "Everybody move!" "Come on, come on!" "Into the corner!" "Let's go!" "Come on, come on!" "Into the corner!" "Let's go!" "Let's go!" "You!" "Hey, come on!" "Over to the corner!" "Grisha, watch them!" "All right, keep your weapons drawn, but no firing till I say so." "Marshal?" "Yes, sir?" "What's the story?" "Gregor, get down those blinds!" "Close the blinds." "Close the blinds!" "Shut up!" "Shut up!" "Don't look at me!" "Shut up!" "Don't look at me." "Don't look at me!" "Shut up!" " Watch them!" " Hold on here a minute." "You can't herd me around like some kind of cattle." "Now, you boys have just made a big mistake." "You talking to me?" "Well, I was just..." "merely trying to... state my point, that's all." "That's enough." "What the hell are you doing?" "Ending this insanity before you get us all killed, you idiot!" "I have my instructions." "You have an employer who'd rather save his own ass than yours." "Think about it, Norvid." "Are you ready to die for a paycheck?" "We have a job to do, company man." "If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the problem, and I don't need any more problems right now." "Iashin!" "Woman:" "Oh!" "Well, well, well, looky here." "Looks like we got ourselves an old fashioned Mexican standoff." "Sit down-- and shut up!" "All righty." "What's it going to be, company man?" "Hm?" "Man on bullhorn:" "Hello, in the bank!" "I'm unarmed!" "I wanna come in and talk!" "I'm unarmed." "I wanna come in and talk." "I'm Detective Delaney." "I'll be your negotiator today." "Just you!" "Move!" "You're, uh, Russian, right?" "It's the accent." "Doesn't take much." "I can always tell." "Shut up." "What's this?" "It's a tape recorder." "For your demands." "My demands?" "Christ, son, there's obviously a language problem here." "Demands, boy!" "He wants to know what you want." "Well, hell, I got one" "You shut up or I'll kill her." "Go ahead!" "Hell, I prefer blondes anyway." "Gregor, put that down!" "Officer, if you'll just call my hotel, the Excelsior, and ask for Urquhart, now, he'll come down and straighten the whole fool mess out." "Shut up!" "Well, who's in charge here?" "I am." "My demands..." "I want a jet waiting at airport and bus to take us there." "And 10 million." "Cash." "I better take that down." "Jet." "Bus." "10 million rubles." "Dollars, asshole." "American dollars!" "American dollars, not rubles." "Don't fuck with me." "Oh, uh, 10 million... that's gonna take some time." "Well" "Norvid... we need to let some of the hostages go." "Is he with you?" "We don't need them." "It may... speed things up?" "Yeah, yeah, he's right." "It could grease the wheels with the suits downtown." "Bring them out." "Nyet." "Gregor..." "They're our ticket out of here." "I'd kill them before I'd let them go." "Don't be stupid." "Who're you calling stupid?" "You." "Both of you, shut up!" "Gregor..." "I know what I'm doing, believe me." "Now go get the hostages." " Grisha..." " You idiot!" "Now!" "Out!" "Out!" "Out!" "Out fast!" "Move!" "Sit down!" "Not me...?" "Shut up!" "Not you." "You stay." " I'm sorry" " Just go, go." "I make the rules here, policeman." "Do you understand?" "You can't eat your pie and have it, too." "If we are not on plane by tonight, the billionaire gets it, and there'll be more like him." "Do you understand?" "Go." "It's "cake."" "Policeman:" "It's Delaney." "Get him out of the line of fire!" "Quick, go!" "Go!" "Go!" "Bad to worse." "I want you there, you up there, and you over there." "I want every entrance in or out of this bank covered." "Let's go." "Double time." "Look alive!" "Well, if it isn't Don Quixote." "Albright." "What are you doing here?" "It's a bank, it's being robbed, a hostage situation, smells like Federal jurisdiction to me." "You're not turning this into your own private Waco." "Not like the last time." "Not on my watch." "Those were antigovernment extremists, and I did what was necessary." "Just keep telling yourself that." "Let's try to work together on this one, Delaney." "Those hostages in there are counting on us." "You're not gonna listen to anything I have to say anyway." "Suit yourself." "You're right." "We got two, maybe three perps, semiautos, heavy caliber." "Okay." "Bought us a little time." "Now we just have to figure a way out." "Basil will find a way." "You trust him?" "You're dumber than I thought." "Grisha..." "Yeah, they killed some poor son of a bitch just to show they were serious." "You're a good cop, Delaney." "That's why I'm gonna let you stay on in an advisory capacity." "When you're done tilting windmills, I'll be in the back." "Thanks, Robo-cop." "Will somebody give me a paper towel?" "!" "All right, so which one of you is the real Felix Grady?" "Now, you got to be kidding me." "Why, that boy don't look nothing like me." "Well, look at me!" "I'm plump," "I'm proud." "Hell, I'm one sexy fella!" "So then who is he?" "That's a good question, my little filly." "I'm not your little filly, you got that?" "Hillbilly jerk." "Well, well, well, looky here." "See what I mean?" "Now, what the hell are you lookin' at?" " A patsy." " What'd you just call me?" "You work for the Company, don't you?" "Now, what makes you think I'd have anything to do with them people?" "Urquhart." "Thomas Wayne Urquhart." "You mentioned his name to the cop." "See, I used to work for him too, Grady... a long time ago." "And they want the painting, right?" "They're using you as cover for purchase and pickup." "They did the same thing back in the '70s with Howard Hughes." "Hide in plain sight." "That way, you don't attract attention." "Yeah, but that doesn't make any sense." "I mean why is a painting worth killing each other over?" "That's the million dollar question." "Try 100 million." "It don't matter." "I'm the only one coming out of here smelling like a rose." "You're blind, Grady." "They're playing you." "Can't you see that?" "Do you even know why you shelled out for that thing?" "You don't, do you?" "You're just their stooge." "Their bagman." "It's time you and I squared off." "Enough talking!" "Sit down, I said!" "And you..." "Remember, I am in charge now." "Then I guess we can kiss our asses goodbye." "Don't think I won't kill you because I'm scared of pissing off Bellanin." "You mean less than shit to me." "I'm glad we got that sorted out." "I could kill you now." "I have nothing else to do today." "Vicky:" "No!" "Eagles, that was a gunshot." "Tell me you see something, over." "Negative." "We've got zero visibility." "Windows covered, over." "Shit's hitting the fan." "I'm gonna warm up the boys." "Keep your pants on for just one minute." "We don't know what's going on in there." "You know," "I've been wanting to do this to one of you for a long time." "For fallen... comrades." "Josef... do you read me?" "Never thought I'd be happy to hear your voice." "Alec, where is the paint" "Basil... where the hell have you been?" "Control yourself." "You are there for one reason." "To get me that painting." "I need all three of you alive for that." "For your information, the building is surrounded by police!" "I know." "Is the painting safe?" "Yes." "Good." "Alec, come in." "He can't hear you anymore." "I am in charge here." "I need Alec to complete this operation." "What you need, Bellanin, is to get us out of here!" "I'm working on it as we speak." "This is a..." "delicate situation." "You have done a fine job for me, Josef." "I will not forget it." "You just have to trust me." "I will not go back to prison." "You get us out of here, Bellanin... or the police will be knocking on your door tomorrow... comrade!" "He will help us." "I trust him." "Grisha..." "All right, Delaney, what's up?" " Look, there was this guy" " A guy?" "A perp." " Well, no" " Was he armed?" "Yes, but look, if it wasn't for him, we'd be dealing with 10 hostages instead of just two." "I think he may be the voice of reason." " "May be" doesn't cut it." " Give me an inside line." "Either I call him on the phone, or I go in there." "It's up to you." "You're a pain in the ass, you know that?" "Make it short." "Hello." "Hello, uh, this is Detective Delaney." "We heard some shooting in there." "Is everybody all right?" "Everyone is fine." "We had a little misunderstanding, that's all." "I'm glad to hear that." "Listen, uh, we're working on your plane and your money, but it's gonna take some time." "Why don't you do me a favor and let the woman go?" "You have balls, detective." "I hear a lot of talk, but no action." "Look, you let some people go, but then you killed an innocent man for no reason." "Doesn't show a lot of good faith." "My superiors want somebody rational to deal with, not a raving psychotic." "Let me tell you who you're dealing with, detective." "I am a Don Cossack." "My father fought against the Germans in the Great Patriotic War." "My grandfather fought against the Bolsheviks in 1917, and my great-grandfather led pogroms against the Jews for the Czar." "We did not get our reputation by acting in good faith." "You now have two hours to get me what I want." "Smooth, Delaney... real smooth." "Your hard-on's showing." "You had your chance." "Two hours... that's 7:50, and I'm going in after dark." "Delaney?" "Now, that's interesting." "Yeah, apparently the perp who was killed in front of the bank was already dead." "His ID took a bullet, so they had to run his fingerprints through the FBI database." "His real name is Caleb Dervitz." "He's a marine from Wisconsin." "Apparently he was killed... in Desert Storm." "Shit." "Agent Albright, my name is Urquhart." "Justice Department." "I need a word with you in private." "Detective, would you, uh, excuse us, please?" "This is definitely gonna need a stitch." "Are you sure you know what you're... doing?" "ER nurse, five years." "Then I decided to try something a little less stressful." "Okay, shoot." "I want you to know what's going on inside that bank." "Three men have taken hostages." "They want money, a plane." "And the corpse at the morgue?" "Don't tell me Justice Department." "I wasn't born yesterday." "No, he didn't work for Justice, and neither do I." "Central Intelligence Agency." "What I'm about to tell you is eyes-only information." "It does not leave this van, you understand me?" "A number of our agents were inside that bank on an operation of the highest national security." "I can't tell you the details, but I need that building secured as quickly as possible." "All other considerations are secondary." "Now, we can't just go in there openly and take over." "It would violate our charter, it would raise all kinds of questions on Capitol Hill." "This has to stay an FBI operation." "I can go over your head if necessary, but that would take time I do not have, so I need to know that I can count on you." "Thanks." "You're welcome." "So... who are you?" "I mean, are you Russian?" "Are you American?" "I know what I saw, and you were trying to stop all of this." "Okay..." "A name." "Could you at least tell me your name?" "Okay." "No name." "Alec." "My name is Alec... and I'm ex-CIA." "Let me get this straight:" "You're asking me to violate normal FBI protocols and rules of engagement, to undermine an ongoing investigation, and conceal evidence." "That's correct." "I've seen your file." "You have a predilection for shooting first and asking questions later." "Just the kind of man I need." "So... how does a blank slate sound?" "And..." "I don't know." "Let's say, a corner office," "Assistant Director Albright?" "Well, it sounds like I'm gonna need a new suit." "Vicky:" "What do you mean "ex"?" "I mean I've been in a Russian mental institution since 1989." "Well, if you're telling the truth, why didn't the CIA get you out?" "Standard procedure." "When an operative is caught in the field... deny any knowledge." "But the wall came down in '89." "The cold war was over." "For you, maybe." "But when it came down, I was stuck on the wrong side, caught in one long nightmare that never ended." "11 years... gone." "Just another expendable asset." "Bullshit." "He's just-- he's trying to scare us!" "Freak boy ain't said nothing that makes sense since he's been in here." "Hell, you heard him." "He's... he's been taking loony pills for 11 years." "Yes." "I heard him." "What's your excuse?" "Albright on tape: ...violate normal FBI protocols and rules of engagement, to undermine an ongoing investigation, and conceal evidence." "Urquhart:" "That's correct." "I've seen your file." "You have a predilection for shooting first and asking questions later." "Just the kind of man I need." "A lot to think about, huh?" "Yeah, and you lay it on pretty thick, too." "Just because I said I was in an asylum, that... that doesn't mean I'm crazy." "No, you just like to impersonate billionaires for kicks, right?" "Touché." "Back in '89..." "I had a partner." "Actually, she was... she was much more than a partner." "So when I escaped from the institution," "I tried to find her, but the people who put me up to this, they found me first, and unless I leave here with that painting... they're gonna kill her." "So you're saying... you're doing all of this for her?" "I just want my life back." "She was my life... and I want her back." "It's getting dark." "Mm-hmm." "Police will be making their move soon." "I could use your help." "I need your contact number, Grady." "There ain't no crazy here, boy, so just take it somewheres else." "If you ever want to smoke another cigar or have another satellite named after you," "I suggest you cough it up." "You know, you don't hears too well." "I said you're pissin' in the wind." "Yup." "You got the look." "It's more of that crazy talk." "Now what the hell is that supposed to mean?" "If I thought for one moment you'd listen, I'd tell you." "You look scared, Felix." "Like a deer in headlights." "Now, down deep inside, you know I'm right." "Now, we can all get out of here alive, but it starts with you." "I need that number." "Newscaster:" "This is Channel 13 coming to you live from downtown Boston where an apparent robbery attempt at Atlantic Global has evolved into a hostage situation." "There is no word yet on the number of injuries, but gunfire" "Da?" "Josef." "Basil." "What are you doing about getting us out of here?" "Working on it." "You said that two hours ago!" "Put Alec on the phone." "I need to talk to him." "What?" "My time is up." "What for?" "Never mind what for." "Just do it!" "Hey!" "Bellanin." "For you." "Don't talk, just listen." "Your time is running out, Company man." "I chose you for this job because I knew you could adapt to unforseen circumstances." "It's time to prove me correct." "Sonya's life depends on it." "Norvid and Iashin are expendable." "The painting is not." "Say yes if you understand." "Yes." "Put our friend back on." "Da?" "Josef, Alec is now in charge." " You will do as he says." " But" "You want to get out of there in one piece?" " Don't argue!" " Uh" "So, what's happening?" "Bellanin says we have to take orders from this pidar now." "Bullshit!" "Who're you calling?" "Man on phone:" "Yes?" "I need to speak with the Piano Man." "Oh, I'm sorry, sir." "You must have the wrong number." "Yeah." "Tell him it's the Chameleon." " He'll take the call." " One moment." "Yeah?" "Piano Man, I have a Chameleon on the line." "Patching you through." "I'll connect you now." " Alec?" "Alec Carville?" " Hello, Tom." "Jesus, I thought you were dead!" "Where are you?" "Unless I miss my guess, right across the street from you." "Good God." "Who you working for, the Chinese, the North Koreans?" "Does it matter?" "You see, I have the painting, Tom, so tell the FBI to back off or I'll torch it." "Go right ahead." "You'd be doing us both a favor." "You forget we played poker together, Tom." "I know you're bluffing." "Alec, do you even know what it is you're trying to steal?" "Well, why don't you fill me in?" "Cold fusion." "Unlimited energy from a simple chemical reaction." "It's totally nonpolluting and cheap as dirt." "It was Kitover's baby." "Kitover?" "The chemist?" "Yeah." "He was killed before they could get it out of him." "For 11 years, everyone assumed he took the secret with him to his grave, then a few weeks ago, CIA gets an anonymous e-mail..." ""100 million, and the formula's yours."" "And that's where Grady comes in." "Urquhart:" "In exchange for certain black technology rights, he buys the painting and turns it over to us." "The money never shows up on any congressional audit." "So why pay 100 million just to bury it?" "Are you kidding?" "Cheap, limitless power that anyone can afford?" "We'd lose control!" "It would be the end of everything we've built since the second World War." "Buried along with the carburetor that gets 100 miles to the gallon." "And Roswell UFO, right?" "Look, Alec... what happened back in '89 was a shitty deal, but you knew the protocols." "Orders are orders, and we have to follow them." "Don't let what happened back then affect your judgment now." "Do the right thing." "Surrender and turn the painting over to us." "Since when was doing the right thing about screwing the people you're supposed to protect?" "Come on, Alec, I'm your friend." "This is no game we're playing here." "We're talking about the future of our country!" "Then I guess it's my turn to be selfish, because I don't give a damn about your orders." "I got something more at stake here." "They're gonna kill" "Alec?" "Basil was such a fool to trust you." "All teams prepare to move on my signal." "Lock and load." "Okay, people... pucker time." "What the hell you doing, Delaney?" " I'm going with you." " No chance." "Somebody's got to think about those people in there." "You sure as hell aren't." "I'm not going to tell you again." "what's the matter, Neil?" "Afraid I might see something" "I'm not supposed to?" "You endanger any of my men, and I'll have your ass." "Thanks for the offer." "I'm married!" "Your two hours are up." "I will not surrender." "No!" "No!" "Get it?" "Nobody else needs to die." "That's my ticket to fly." "All right, get moving." "Get moving!" "Oh, Christ... talk about your dead weight." "You're on your own, superhero." "Grady, don't!" "Freeze!" "Oh, nuts!" "Urquhart!" "It's me!" "Grady!" "Elvis has left the building." "Let's go." "Get down!" "Take this and head for the vault." "The vault?" "It's got a time lock, doesn't it?" "Yes." "You go when I tell you." "Just do it." "I'll be right behind you, don't worry." " Ready?" " Yes." "Go... now!" "Die, for Grisha." "Carville!" "Come out and face me, you pidar gnoinyj!" "You don't get it, Norvid." "It's not about you." "Move out!" "Go!" "Go!" "Go!" "Oh, shit!" "Shoot him down!" "I hate this country." "I hate this fucking country!" "Move it!" "Go!" "Go!" "Get in, get in." "Get in!" "Sorry about that." "Are you sure you know what you're doing?" "You want piece of me, FBI scum?" "Let's go!" "I take you all to hell!" "Aaaah!" "Yeah, come on!" "How long till this thing can be opened?" "9:00 tomorrow morning." "At least buys us some time." "Agent Paris?" "Two of them ran into the vault." "It's on a time lock, and we won't be able to open it till morning." "Good work." "Shit!" "All right, secure the building and get your men the hell out." "And I need to know the exact time that vault opens." "We have been down here for a few hours and all you do is stare at that thing." "Alec?" "I know." "I'm sorry." "I just got lost." "Okay." "Urquhart told you what this was all about, didn't he?" "Yes." "I think I have a right to know." "And I think the less you know, the better." "How can you say that?" "How many more people need to die" "This isn't your fault!" "Isn't it?" "No, it isn't." "You're blaming yourself for what happened to her." "No... no." "It's been 11 years, Alec." "It's been 11 years." "How do you know that they're telling the truth?" "How do you know that she's still alive?" "Stop!" "She is alive." "I feel it." "She was a flower of-- ...of spring." "Sunitska... one day you and your country will be free." "Maybe I will create something happy." "Flowers, maybe." "I think I know who painted this." "Remember when I... said I could use your help?" "Yes." "What do you want me to do?" "Rise and shine." "Room service." "Can I give you a hand?" " Thank you." " Sure." "Miss Best?" "Yes?" "You okay?" "I'm fine, thank you." "Humph!" "I'll take it from here." "Show her out, will you?" "Thank you." "We have a counselor waiting for you if you'd like." "I don't need a shrink." "I just need some food and the bathroom." "It's been a long time." "Excuse me, miss..." "can I ask you a few questions?" "Can't this wait?" "I realize that, uh..." "Vicky!" "Are you okay?" "Oh, yes, great." "I'm okay." " Are you sure?" " Yes." "I was so worried for you-- I couldn't sleep!" "Okay, Tom, you got what you want." "Now I need a favor." "Yeah?" "Basil Bellanin has Sonya." "If I don't deliver that painting, he's gonna kill her." "Basil Bellanin?" "I haven't heard that name in a while." "I think it's best I go to Bellanin's on my own." "Why don't I contact you when I'm through?" "I'm afraid Bellanin's gonna have to wait." "Oh, Alec, Alec, you should've stayed dead." "You know, Tom, I kinda hoped you'd be one of the good guys." "Too many years of budget cuts and new world order." ""New world order," huh?" "Is that why you didn't come get me?" "Sorry, pal." "You got in too deep with your Russian contact, too close to the other side." "We thought you were gonna turn." "It wasn't anything personal." "It never is." "Let's go." "Come on." "No final pitch, huh?" "Try to get me back on side?" "Where's my speech?" "You know, the old "You're an invaluable asset, Alec." "We can really use you on this mission."" "You want to close this file?" "You shoot me in the back!" "Let's not make this any harder than we have to, okay?" "Don't sweat it, Tom." "I'm already dead, remember?" "All you got to do is... pull the trigger." "Nice shot." "Thanks." "I haven't pulled this trigger in over seven years." "How come every time I see you somebody's trying to shoot somebody?" "I don't know." "Just lucky, I guess." "Who the hell are you?" "Alec Carville." "Ex-CIA." "Well then, why..." "My whole history's in the car." "Look, I don't have time to explain it to you." "I got the bottom half of a double-header to catch." "I owe you one." "Sources are now reporting that a third suspect in the recently ended hostage incident at the Atlantic Global Bank in downtown Boston may still be at large." "This is Jackie Casey reporting for Channel 13," "WZIN." "I knew I could count on you..." "Alec." "Bellanin:" "I see you found your way in." "I knew I could count on you, Alec." "Where's the painting?" "Oh, yes, the painting." "You see, I didn't bring it... 'cause you don't have her." "You never did." "Let me see if I remember that game we played that night." "Answer incorrectly... or refuse to answer, that's a strike, right?" "Tell me what I want to know... and you can take your base." "Are you crazy?" "All it takes is one phone call, and she's dead." "Where is she, Basil?" "Unless you want Sonya to die," "I suggest you lose that thing and hand over the painting." "Oh, big swing and a miss." "Strike one." "Cash." "I'll give you half the value of the painting in cash." "That's what 11 years of my life is worth, half of something I already have?" "You're not doing too well, Basil." "Strike two." "She's in Yezhov, isn't she?" "In the cell next to yours." "She and Kitover were arrested the same day you were." "And you tortured me for two days?" "Aah!" "Ohh..." "Who sold the painting to the CIA?" "Schroeder." "The doctor that you'd killed on the way out of Yezhov." "We were associates once." "So he double-crossed you." "Yes... but we got him back, didn't we?" "You just don't get it, Basil." "You see, Kitover trusted Sonya with the formula that night." "Her painting-- "Spring"-- was a legacy to me." "For that alone, I thank you." "If you want to see her again... you'll have to go back." "Not a problem." "I already made a reservation, but I have some time to kill." "Wait!" "The painting... where is it?" "It's in a safe place." "Now hold still..." "I want to clear the green monster." "Can I help you, detective?" "What's this?" "Everything you and Urquhart said in the van." "What the hell are you doing?" "You can't touch me." "I got a deal." "I'm protected." "You had a deal." "With Urquhart." "Urquhart's dead." "Hey!" "That conversation is protected under national security!" "Look, the judge will never admit it!" "I can't wait to find out." "Windmills, my ass." "Investigator:" "I need a shot of this over here." "Thank you for my Spring."
