The Yongsoo Ring
is an organization
that is known for distributing drugs
across the nation.
The Sangseon Ring supplies the drugs,
then the Yongsoo Ring distributes them.
After the drugs are sold and
the Yongsoo Ring takes a cut for labor,
the money is sent back
to the Sangseon Ring.
Recently, we received a tip
about a delivery van that was meant
for the Sangseon group, so we followed it.
But we lost it.
We lost all contact
and they haven't reported in.
You guys promised the Sangseon Ring would
be taken down, but look where we are now!
We had everyone ready to go.
What do we do with this mess?
What's your next move?
- Give up?
- I spent two years on this.
I can't just give up.
Do you have a plan?
Before disappearing, he found
some important information.
Our main priority is finding him alive.
Or dead.
But you can't even find him now!
We just need permission
to track his phone.
Use your head.
"Oh, Your Honor, we lost one of our guys
during an illegal operation."
"Can we get a warrant, please?"
Is that it?
If any of this gets out there,
do you think losing our badge is
all that would happen to us?
I know that, but let's try to
Just keep investigating
the Sangseon Ring.
And anything linking us
to this undercover operation, lose it.
It never existed.
Kang Joo-hyun, do you understand me?
Fuck me.
PERSONAL DETAILS REPOR
YOO HAN-CHEOL
- Yes, ma'am.
- Where's the car?
It's still
at the Pass-one parking lot.
- And Kwang-chul?
- Looking for him now.
Hey, always put a mask on, kid.
Yes, sir.
- Is this going out tomorrow?
- Yeah.
Careful not to mix them up.
Or some idiot might start tweaking
'cause they boiled ramen with it.
Ah, shit.
Did this motherfucker die, or what?
See something?
I just
I mean, you sitting next to me like that
It reminds me
of a girlfriend
that I dated long time ago.
Who would you say is better,
your ex or me?
Oh, my team leader is so much better.
- You interested then?
- Oh, what are you talking about?
I thought we weren't allowed
to date other detectives.
Yeah, we're not.
It never ends well.
How would you even know how it would end
if you never even give it a try?
Damn,
you're really full of shit.
What you really want to know about
is whether
I'm hiding something or not, right?
No, that's not
One of our agents went undercover
and joined Kwang-chul's gang.
Wait. Why didn't you tell me that?
It's not undercover
if everyone and their mom knows.
Wow. Everyone and their
- You really love your team, don't you?
- I do.
That's one thing I have plenty of.
The van on the move right now.
- So, he hasn't found it yet?
- No.
Then where the hell is
Kwang-chul right now?
I heard that he went out to the suburbs.
He did?
I don't have any details,
but the last I heard was
that he just got a house there.
Just living life?
While we're all waiting to die.
Just make sure
everything's running smooth.
Yes, sir.
Ah, sh
Come on.
- You're working hard.
- What's up?
They destroyed it.
Thought we might recover something,
but that's out the window.
Ah, what morons.
Bam! A perfectly good van.
What lead are we supposed to follow now?
Kwang-chul's not here?
We saw him driving around
to fix this whole mess.
But I haven't seen him since.
Yong-soo seemed absolutely pissed off
by Kwang-chul.
Wait a second. How did you know
that the delivery truck
is on its way to the Sangseon Ring?
Apparently, one of those guys
was working with us.
Undercover?
Wait. Hold on a minute. Who?
Why Why didn't we know? I mean
If everyone and their mom knew about it,
could you really call that undercover?
You two follow that shithead.
We need to go now.
- I guess we're going.
- Hey, Yun-seok!
- Yeah?
- Come here.
Are you starting to get cocky 'cause
Joo-Hyun lets you follow her around?
Everyone and their mom?
You're pushing it way too much, asshole.
- Hey
- You need to watch yourself.
Maybe you should have gotten
on her good side.
Life's about who you know.
- All right
- A car's coming, a car's coming.
See you later.
- Ah, what are we gonna do with him?
- He's an asshole.
Let's go.
The house was abandoned, but it'll do.
Do you require anything else, sir?
Check out that house over there.
The lights were left on all night.
- Do you mean the one with the dog?
- Yeah.
Some bastard living alone
in a house that big.
- Go take a look.
- Yes.
That family left early
this morning.
Check to see
if they're just moving or running away.
Do you have pictures of the missing guys?
Yes.
They're going to need to clean the money,
so share their pictures everywhere.
Even if it's not our two,
have them call us
if they see a lot of cash.
- Yes.
- And please be discreet.
Do not tell anyone.
Yes.
Thanks, Dad, for breakfast.
Hyun-woo, take your meds.
Okay.
Hey, Eun-ju.
Tell me. What's the real reason?
If I just try a little harder,
things can get better for us.
They can't.
They never do.
Just do as you always do.
You're still trying
to make up your mind, right?
You're pushing your decision
until the last minute.
But by then, you've missed your chance
and screw everything up.
Even when we were dating,
you couldn't decide
on where we would go for coffee.
Maybe you're timid because you overthink.
Or maybe you overthink
because you're timid.
Since we've met,
I've had to make every decision for you.
But there's one decision I made
that you didn't listen to.
And you wasted all your life
working to be a professor
when you should've already known
that's not possible.
No matter how much
you desperately wanted to.
It'll get better, I promise, Eun-ju.
You're still saying that?
How much do we actually make
from your lectures
and my part-time translating job?
I've been asking my mom for help
to raise the kids.
And one of them is now terribly sick.
So I have to take care of him.
I used to blame myself
for him getting sick.
I kept thinking it was my fault.
Where were you then?
You were giving lectures
out in the country.
Saying everything's okay.
But then you'd leave early
and come home late
swearing you'd be a professor
And on the weekends,
you'd go out with the professors
on their golfing trips and fishing trips.
But what about us?
Have we ever gone on a real vacation?
All families have at least been
to Southeast Asia,
but we've never even been to Jeju Island.
You're indecisive and timid,
but still manage to be stubborn.
It's that stubbornness that did this,
that made our family turn out this way.
Allow me
to make one more decision for you, okay?
It's time for us to get a divorce.
It's better for you
and for me and the kids too.
Utilities, insurance, credit cards,
tutoring, rent, and the list goes on.
I can't afford to wait for you
to keep your word.
I'll get you the money. How much?
The owner is coming back soon to Korea.
You know they're gonna make us move out.
So, then how much does everything cost?
I'll make sure that you have everything
for this year No
I'll give you enough money for ten years.
How much do you need?
Are you kidding me?
Why would I be kidding?
Stop asking your mom for money.
I will make sure you won't have to worry
about having enough money anymore.
Please stop making me
stop making me feel so pathetic.
HOW TO LAUNDER MONEY
WHERE TO LAUNDER MONEY
WHERE TO LAUNDER MONEY
LAUNDERING A LARGE SUM
I WILL LAUNDER MONEY FOR YOU
I DO LAUNDRY
INQUIRE WITHIN
Huh. What is this?
1:1 CONSULTATION REQUES
GUES
DO YOU DO LAUNDRY?
GUEST - DO YOU DO LAUNDRY?
Dad.
Oh, Hyun-woo. Hmm.
- What's up?
- Can we go play catch, Dad?
Uh
Last time, you got in big trouble with Mom
because you ended up
running out of breath.
What about a board game? Sound good?
If I run out of breath, we can just stop.
Come on.
You haven't been home in a while, Dad.
All right. Let's do it. Let's play.
Daddy's not busy at all right now.
I'm done with my work today.
Come on. Out. Let's go.
WASHER: YES, I DO
I CAN GET IT SUPER CLEAN
HOW MUCH LAUNDRY DO YOU HAVE?
HISTORY
Why was he hanging around
this neighborhood
for three hours and twenty-six minutes?
This just looks like
a typical suburb to me.
Maybe we should take a look
at who's living here?
There has to be a reason why he came here.
Hey, you're getting pretty good at this.
- Come on, Dad, throw it harder.
- Kwang-chul. Kwang-chul.
Don't make a scene.
He doesn't know who we are.
Play it cool and we'll be fine.
We'll do a lap around the neighborhood.
Hey, heads up! Get it!
God, you're an asshole
Just act like we're newly married.
And please,
would you stop swearing already?
Catch! Watch out! Oh, jeez.
There you go! Heads up!
Okay, throw it
as hard as you can! Toss it!
Don't we make quite the couple?
Kid, just let go.
I've been wondering
where Kwang-chul went off to.
You think he's finally settling down?
Kwang-chul feels
a little out of place
in this peaceful neighborhood.
- Yun-seok.
- Yeah?
Should we get a house together?
There's quite a few vacant houses
in that neighborhood for sale.
When the houses were built in that area,
a lot of them never sold.
So the developers
cut their losses and sold for pennies.
Although, they haven't been looked after,
they're still new developments.
Were you recently married?
- You mean us?
- Yeah.
The two of us, uh
are newly married.
That's really great to hear.
As there are no daycares or schools
that are close,
it's not the best for families with kids.
While, the houses are cheap,
they're still really nice,
just no one wants to buy them.
So does the neighborhood have
any security guards or cameras?
Hmm?
The wife's a total scaredy-cat.
That right? Honey?
There's no need for it
in this neighborhood.
Not even stray cats steal any food.
Everyone here is nice
and completely harmless.
So, what are you going to do
about the down payment?
You're acting pretty impulsive right now.
Hmm?
Go and find out
if they do short-term leases.
With what money?
Split it since we're
a dual-income household, dumbass.
I mean
I can barely pay my own rent.
That's really quite a lot.
Nice.
Catch!
Here it comes.
Catch! Here!
Here you go.
Ah, shoot. Get it quick!
Throw it here! Right over here!
There we go.
Come on, come on!
Ah!
- Hey, what was that?
- Sorry, Dad. Really sorry.
- What's the matter, sir?
- Call 911.
Ah.
Jeez.
Hyun-woo!
The kid isn't breathing.
Okay. Please come quick.
Hyun-woo!
Hyun-woo!
What? Hyun-woo!
Hyun-woo!
X-rays should be taken first.
I'm sorry, Mom.
Dad tried to tell me no,
but I kept asking him to.
I'm really sorry, Mom.
May I speak with mom and dad
real quick?
I take it you're already aware
of his condition?
He has a congenital heart disease,
and has already had a few surgeries.
There could be any number
of complications, even a heart failure.
You need to be extremely careful
until he can get his new heart.
Do you know what Hyun-woo wants to do?
He wants to ride bikes,
skateboard, play soccer,
shoot baskets,
and run a 100-meter dash
as fast as he possibly can.
Do you know get
why I never
allowed him to do any of that?
You had to play catch?
And you call yourself his dad? Really?
Do you want to know the real reason?
I just can't.
I don't want anything else from you.
Just return the money for his surgery.
WASHER - HOW MUCH LAUNDRY DO YOU HAVE?
010-0228-5950
I went and shared the missing guys
photos everywhere they might go.
And the family that moved out today,
that was just because
their kid needed to transfer schools.
But the guy with the lights on
is well known around here.
- For what?
- For pot. Marijuana.
He doesn't even outsource the stuff.
Apparently, he grows
and distributes himself.
He always
keeps the lights on at night
because he's growing all that weed.
You think that might explain
why they stopped by this area?
Let's go ask him ourselves.
- First time?
- Yes.
If you're trying
to save money on taxes,
you could probably
just find an accountant.
It's not that.
Do you know
this isn't exactly legal?
Yes,
I'm just in a bit of a hurry.
Where can I meet you?
Shit, man.
Just leave it.
Goddamn.
Uh
Who is it?
Hi, I'm from across the street.
Do you own this dog??
A dog?
- Are you talking about Hash?
- Hash, huh?
What a great name.
Hash, THC
Ah, I think something happened
to your dog Hash.
What's wrong with him?
I mean, he's not getting up.
You should come check it out.
- So what happened to Hash?
- Hey there.
Fucking shit.
Hold it, motherfucker.
- What the fuck are you doing?
- Let's go.
Who the hell are you guys?
- Let go of me, you assholes.
- Come on.
- Let me go! Let go!
- Jeez, just stay still!

COMPUTER ASSEMBLY
Today, we've had
a beautiful taste of summer.
With clear skies
and temperatures getting as high as
26 degrees Celsius across the peninsula.
I think I spoke to you online.
Online? Do you need
to fix your computer tonight?
No, well. I, uh
I messaged with someone
on the blog earlier.
I'm here to do the laundry.
expect the temperature
to drop significantly
- "Laundry"?
- Yeah.
What laundry?
I think you're at the wrong place.
There aren't any dry cleaners
in this building.
This is 302?
- Isn't this Bit B Computers?
- It sure is.
This is it
for your nightly weather report.
FOURTH FLOOR UNIT 402
I've never had any desire
to really possess any consumer goods
A lot of people get this urge to splurge
like it's their job
Damn.
Shit. It's like a fucking jungle in here.
You guys aren't cops, are you?
I'm the one
asking the questions right now.
You just answer me.
Where's the money?
Wha What money?
I said
I'm asking the questions.
Where did my guys go?
What do you mean?
Your guys
are right in front of you,
you piece of shit.
Ah, I can't tell if he's got balls
or if he's just really high.
You need to watch what you say
if you want to keep your tongue.
Hey, don't take his tongue.
He needs it to tell us where they are.
Where did you hide my money?
What does your money look like?
You should've written your name
on it then, fucking asshole!
That it?
You're here for laundry?
Mmm.
- Is that all of it?
- Yeah, for, uh for now.
Does that mean there's more money?
You were too nervous to bring it all in?
The money will be laundered
through cryptocurrency.
We take a 30% cut.
The longer it takes,
the safer your money is.
In a rush?
Yeah, yeah, kind of.
I'll hook you up
with an older crypto-wallet.
So then it'll look like you've been
trading crypto for a while now,
and just recently just sold everything,
Once 70% of the clean money
is in your account,
feel free to do whatever you want with it.
Do you get me?
N-No, I don't. Sorry, not really.
You don't have to.
What's important are the results.
Use this phone
when you want to contact me.
Just leave the bag and go.
Uh, is that then Is that
Is that all there is?
What else is there?
Well, it's, um, just that
how am I supposed to trust
that you'll give me back my money?
Then you can just take it with you,
and hide it in your backyard
for a while. Sound good?
I saw that you walked in alone.
Are you someone who works in finance?
- A lobbyist?
- No, I'm not.
You really don't look like a bookie,
and I haven't heard anything
about a bank robbery, either.
I'm I'm really sorry,
but I need to go right now.
Thank you. I'll come
I'll come back another time.
Hey, wait.
What's your name?
Um, I-I'm sorry.
You're just going to leave?
What are you?
- Are you a cop?
- No, no. I'm really not.
- I'm just just here to
- Where'd you get that money?
It's not political campaign money,
nor was it taken from a big corporation.
It's not from gambling.
And loan sharks are our main clients
so there's no way
I wouldn't hear about that.
So, who are you, man?
I need to go.
Get him.
You've never seen him before, huh?
How many times do I have to say it?
I have never seen that man before.
- Go and cut off another toe.
- Yes, sir.
Just wait, wait
Wait!
I remember!
I remember seeing those men now!
I can't say for sure, but
but they came together in a car.
The color the color was
I can't really remember, man.
But it was foreign. It was foreign.
Not a domestic SUV?
Was it a domestic?
I don't really know. But they
but they came here
because they wanted to buy some hash.
They They said they were good for it
and showed me a bag full of money.
Wait a second.
That's just what we told you earlier!
That's just what happened, man.
Damn! What the fucking hell?
I said what you wanted me to say!
- Fuck.
- What do you want now?
Jeez. Stay still.
Come on.
You bastards!
Bring it on, motherfuckers! Fuck you!
- Fuck you!
- Ooh!

Wait. Why didn't you tell me that?
It's not undercover
if everyone and their mom knows.
Wow. Everyone and their

- I do.
That's one thing I have plenty of.

- So, he hasn't found it yet?
- No.
Then where the hell is
Kwang-chul right now?
I heard that he went out to the suburbs.
He did?
I don't have any details,
but the last I heard was
that he just got a house there.
Just living life?
While we're all waiting to die.
Just make sure
everything's running smooth.
Yes, sir.

- You're working hard.
- What's up?
They destroyed it.
Thought we might recover something,

Ah, what morons.
Bam! A perfectly good van.

Kwang-chul's not here?
We saw him driving around
to fix this whole mess.
But I haven't seen him since.
Yong-soo seemed absolutely pissed off
by Kwang-chul.
Wait a second. How did you know
that the delivery truck
is on its way to the Sangseon Ring?
Apparently, one of those guys
was working with us.
Undercover?
Wait. Hold on a minute. Who?
Why Why didn't we know? I mean
If everyone and their mom knew about it,
could you really call that undercover?
You two follow that shithead.
We need to go now.
- I guess we're going.
- Hey, Yun-seok!
- Yeah?
- Come here.
Are you starting to get cocky 'cause
Joo-Hyun lets you follow her around?
Everyone and their mom?
You're pushing it way too much, asshole.
- Hey
- You need to watch yourself.
Maybe you should have gotten
on her good side.
Life's about who you know.
- All right
- A car's coming, a car's coming.
See you later.
- Ah, what are we gonna do with him?
- He's an asshole.
Let's go.
The house was abandoned, but it'll do.
Do you require anything else, sir?
Check out that house over there.
The lights were left on all night.
- Do you mean the one with the dog?
- Yeah.
Some bastard living alone
in a house that big.
- Go take a look.
- Yes.
That family left early
this morning.
Check to see
if they're just moving or running away.
Do you have pictures of the missing guys?
Yes.
They're going to need to clean the money,
so share their pictures everywhere.
Even if it's not our two,
have them call us
if they see a lot of cash.
- Yes.
- And please be discreet.
Do not tell anyone.
Yes.
Thanks, Dad, for breakfast.
Hyun-woo, take your meds.
Okay.
Hey, Eun-ju.
Tell me. What's the real reason?
If I just try a little harder,
things can get better for us.
They can't.
They never do.
Just do as you always do.
You're still trying
to make up your mind, right?
You're pushing your decision
until the last minute.
But by then, you've missed your chance
and screw everything up.
Even when we were dating,
you couldn't decide
on where we would go for coffee.
Maybe you're timid because you overthink.
Or maybe you overthink
because you're timid.
Since we've met,
I've had to make every decision for you.
But there's one decision I made
that you didn't listen to.
And you wasted all your life
working to be a professor
when you should've already known
that's not possible.
No matter how much
you desperately wanted to.
It'll get better, I promise, Eun-ju.
You're still saying that?
How much do we actually make
from your lectures
and my part-time translating job?
I've been asking my mom for help
to raise the kids.
And one of them is now terribly sick.
So I have to take care of him.
I used to blame myself
for him getting sick.
I kept thinking it was my fault.
Where were you then?
You were giving lectures
out in the country.
Saying everything's okay.
But then you'd leave early
and come home late
swearing you'd be a professor
And on the weekends,
you'd go out with the professors
on their golfing trips and fishing trips.
But what about us?
Have we ever gone on a real vacation?
All families have at least been
to Southeast Asia,
but we've never even been to Jeju Island.
You're indecisive and timid,
but still manage to be stubborn.
It's that stubbornness that did this,
that made our family turn out this way.
Allow me
to make one more decision for you, okay?
It's time for us to get a divorce.
It's better for you
and for me and the kids too.
Utilities, insurance, credit cards,
tutoring, rent, and the list goes on.
I can't afford to wait for you
to keep your word.
I'll get you the money. How much?
The owner is coming back soon to Korea.
You know they're gonna make us move out.
So, then how much does everything cost?
I'll make sure that you have everything
for this year No
I'll give you enough money for ten years.
How much do you need?
Are you kidding me?
Why would I be kidding?
Stop asking your mom for money.
I will make sure you won't have to worry
about having enough money anymore.
Please stop making me
stop making me feel so pathetic.
HOW TO LAUNDER MONEY
WHERE TO LAUNDER MONEY
WHERE TO LAUNDER MONEY
LAUNDERING A LARGE SUM
I WILL LAUNDER MONEY FOR YOU
I DO LAUNDRY
INQUIRE WITHIN
Huh. What is this?
1:1 CONSULTATION REQUES
GUES
DO YOU DO LAUNDRY?
GUEST - DO YOU DO LAUNDRY?
Dad.
Oh, Hyun-woo. Hmm.
- What's up?
- Can we go play catch, Dad?
Uh
Last time, you got in big trouble with Mom
because you ended up
running out of breath.
What about a board game? Sound good?
If I run out of breath, we can just stop.
Come on.
You haven't been home in a while, Dad.
All right. Let's do it. Let's play.
Daddy's not busy at all right now.
I'm done with my work today.
Come on. Out. Let's go.
WASHER: YES, I DO
I CAN GET IT SUPER CLEAN
HOW MUCH LAUNDRY DO YOU HAVE?
HISTORY
Why was he hanging around
this neighborhood
for three hours and twenty-six minutes?
This just looks like
a typical suburb to me.
Maybe we should take a look
at who's living here?
There has to be a reason why he came here.
Hey, you're getting pretty good at this.
- Come on, Dad, throw it harder.
- Kwang-chul. Kwang-chul.
Don't make a scene.
He doesn't know who we are.
Play it cool and we'll be fine.
We'll do a lap around the neighborhood.
Hey, heads up! Get it!
God, you're an asshole
Just act like we're newly married.
And please,
would you stop swearing already?
Catch! Watch out! Oh, jeez.
There you go! Heads up!
Okay, throw it
as hard as you can! Toss it!
Don't we make quite the couple?
Kid, just let go.
I've been wondering
where Kwang-chul went off to.
You think he's finally settling down?
Kwang-chul feels
a little out of place
in this peaceful neighborhood.
- Yun-seok.
- Yeah?
Should we get a house together?
There's quite a few vacant houses
in that neighborhood for sale.
When the houses were built in that area,
a lot of them never sold.
So the developers
cut their losses and sold for pennies.
Although, they haven't been looked after,
they're still new developments.
Were you recently married?
- You mean us?
- Yeah.
The two of us, uh
are newly married.
That's really great to hear.
As there are no daycares or schools
that are close,
it's not the best for families with kids.
While, the houses are cheap,
they're still really nice,
just no one wants to buy them.
So does the neighborhood have
any security guards or cameras?
Hmm?
The wife's a total scaredy-cat.
That right? Honey?
There's no need for it
in this neighborhood.
Not even stray cats steal any food.
Everyone here is nice
and completely harmless.
So, what are you going to do
about the down payment?
You're acting pretty impulsive right now.
Hmm?
Go and find out
if they do short-term leases.
With what money?
Split it since we're
a dual-income household, dumbass.
I mean
I can barely pay my own rent.
That's really quite a lot.
Nice.
Catch!
Here it comes.
Catch! Here!
Here you go.
Ah, shoot. Get it quick!
Throw it here! Right over here!
There we go.
Come on, come on!
Ah!
- Hey, what was that?
- Sorry, Dad. Really sorry.
- What's the matter, sir?
- Call 911.
Ah.
Jeez.
Hyun-woo!
The kid isn't breathing.
Okay. Please come quick.
Hyun-woo!
Hyun-woo!
What? Hyun-woo!
Hyun-woo!
X-rays should be taken first.
I'm sorry, Mom.
Dad tried to tell me no,
but I kept asking him to.
I'm really sorry, Mom.
May I speak with mom and dad
real quick?
I take it you're already aware
of his condition?
He has a congenital heart disease,
and has already had a few surgeries.
There could be any number
of complications, even a heart failure.
You need to be extremely careful
until he can get his new heart.
Do you know what Hyun-woo wants to do?
He wants to ride bikes,
skateboard, play soccer,
shoot baskets,
and run a 100-meter dash
as fast as he possibly can.
Do you know get
why I never
allowed him to do any of that?
You had to play catch?
And you call yourself his dad? Really?
Do you want to know the real reason?
I just can't.
I don't want anything else from you.
Just return the money for his surgery.
WASHER - HOW MUCH LAUNDRY DO YOU HAVE?
010-0228-5950
I went and shared the missing guys
photos everywhere they might go.
And the family that moved out today,
that was just because
their kid needed to transfer schools.
But the guy with the lights on
is well known around here.
- For what?
- For pot. Marijuana.
He doesn't even outsource the stuff.
Apparently, he grows
and distributes himself.
He always
keeps the lights on at night
because he's growing all that weed.
You think that might explain
why they stopped by this area?
Let's go ask him ourselves.
- First time?
- Yes.
If you're trying
to save money on taxes,
you could probably
just find an accountant.
It's not that.
Do you know
this isn't exactly legal?
Yes,
I'm just in a bit of a hurry.
Where can I meet you?
Shit, man.
Just leave it.
Goddamn.
Uh
Who is it?
Hi, I'm from across the street.
Do you own this dog??
A dog?
- Are you talking about Hash?
- Hash, huh?
What a great name.
Hash, THC
Ah, I think something happened
to your dog Hash.
What's wrong with him?
I mean, he's not getting up.
You should come check it out.
- So what happened to Hash?
- Hey there.
Fucking shit.
Hold it, motherfucker.
- What the fuck are you doing?
- Let's go.
Who the hell are you guys?
- Let go of me, you assholes.
- Come on.
- Let me go! Let go!
- Jeez, just stay still!

COMPUTER ASSEMBLY
Today, we've had
a beautiful taste of summer.
With clear skies
and temperatures getting as high as
26 degrees Celsius across the peninsula.
I think I spoke to you online.
Online? Do you need
to fix your computer tonight?
No, well. I, uh
I messaged with someone
on the blog earlier.
I'm here to do the laundry.
expect the temperature
to drop significantly
- "Laundry"?
- Yeah.
What laundry?
I think you're at the wrong place.
There aren't any dry cleaners
in this building.
This is 302?
- Isn't this Bit B Computers?
- It sure is.
This is it
for your nightly weather report.
FOURTH FLOOR UNIT 402
I've never had any desire
to really possess any consumer goods
A lot of people get this urge to splurge
like it's their job
Damn.
Shit. It's like a fucking jungle in here.
You guys aren't cops, are you?
I'm the one
asking the questions right now.
You just answer me.
Where's the money?
Wha What money?
I said
I'm asking the questions.
Where did my guys go?
What do you mean?
Your guys
are right in front of you,
you piece of shit.
Ah, I can't tell if he's got balls
or if he's just really high.
You need to watch what you say
if you want to keep your tongue.
Hey, don't take his tongue.
He needs it to tell us where they are.
Where did you hide my money?
What does your money look like?
You should've written your name
on it then, fucking asshole!
That it?
You're here for laundry?
Mmm.
- Is that all of it?
- Yeah, for, uh for now.
Does that mean there's more money?
You were too nervous to bring it all in?
The money will be laundered
through cryptocurrency.
We take a 30% cut.
The longer it takes,
the safer your money is.
In a rush?
Yeah, yeah, kind of.
I'll hook you up
with an older crypto-wallet.
So then it'll look like you've been
trading crypto for a while now,
and just recently just sold everything,
Once 70% of the clean money
is in your account,
feel free to do whatever you want with it.
Do you get me?
N-No, I don't. Sorry, not really.
You don't have to.
What's important are the results.
Use this phone
when you want to contact me.
Just leave the bag and go.
Uh, is that then Is that
Is that all there is?
What else is there?
Well, it's, um, just that
how am I supposed to trust
that you'll give me back my money?
Then you can just take it with you,
and hide it in your backyard
for a while. Sound good?
I saw that you walked in alone.
Are you someone who works in finance?
- A lobbyist?
- No, I'm not.
You really don't look like a bookie,
and I haven't heard anything
about a bank robbery, either.
I'm I'm really sorry,
but I need to go right now.
Thank you. I'll come
I'll come back another time.
Hey, wait.
What's your name?
Um, I-I'm sorry.
You're just going to leave?
What are you?
- Are you a cop?
- No, no. I'm really not.
- I'm just just here to
- Where'd you get that money?
It's not political campaign money,
nor was it taken from a big corporation.
It's not from gambling.
And loan sharks are our main clients
so there's no way
I wouldn't hear about that.
So, who are you, man?
I need to go.
Get him.
You've never seen him before, huh?
How many times do I have to say it?
I have never seen that man before.
- Go and cut off another toe.
- Yes, sir.
Just wait, wait
Wait!
I remember!
I remember seeing those men now!
I can't say for sure, but
but they came together in a car.
The color the color was
I can't really remember, man.
But it was foreign. It was foreign.
Not a domestic SUV?
Was it a domestic?
I don't really know. But they
but they came here
because they wanted to buy some hash.
They They said they were good for it
and showed me a bag full of money.
Wait a second.
That's just what we told you earlier!
That's just what happened, man.
Damn! What the fucking hell?
I said what you wanted me to say!
- Fuck.
- What do you want now?
Jeez. Stay still.
Come on.
You bastards!
Bring it on, motherfuckers! Fuck you!

- Come on! Come!
Get him! Come on! Come on!
