I'll make sure the money goes To the right place.
Go to hell.
a rescue attempt is hard enough when it's someone who actually Wants to be rescued.
doesn't matter whether It's a brother with a compulsive-gambling Problem or a girl who thinks she's about to launch Her modeling career.

The best thing for you to do Is stay at home.
You'll be the first one We call.
Talk to you soon.
Michael? Is Nate with you? No.
I'm just fixing his truck.
What's wrong, mom? He said he was going over To your apartment To get his share Of the money.
What? He's going over to my place? What's his cell number? Nate doesn't have a cell.
They cut him off months ago.
Michael! Nate! some situations just come down To probability the chance that an assassin With a handgun can hit you at 50 yards, the number of shots He can get off.
might have a 1-in-5 chance Of taking a bullet, maybe a 1-in-10 chance Of dying Nate! or a 100% chance Of getting blown away by a shotgun wired to a door.
A ricochet Is usually not deadly, But it sure feels that way.
Michael! Aah! Where the hell is Michael On one of your secret missions? Don't look at me.
Your guys should be out Pretty soon.
Last flight to Dubai Is in a couple hours.
I'm ready.
Oh, no way.

You got no backbone.
Backbone? You remember how this works? You hold off the guy In the front.
I take the guy in the back.
Mike takes Jenna.
What's missing From this picture? The guy that takes Jenna.
So I'll take Jenna.
Okay, so who takes the guy In the front? Nobody.
What happens then? People start shooting.
We lose, we're dead.
We win, we got three bodies, A traumatized girl, And spots on the FBI's Most wanted list.
I've been on plenty Of those lists.
It's not so bad.

Well, I don't know, Pal.
I got hit pretty good.
Don't come looking For more.
Let's go back to the house.
Oh! Hey! It's illegal To drive away from an accident.
Mike better have one hell Of an excuse for not being here.
Aah.

Take it easy.
Now, make a small incision Just above the wound.

Disinfect the blade In the alcohol.
And then run the lighter Over the edge of the blade.

This is kind of fun.
Small incision.

Just a little more.
God! Okay.
Okay.

No, it was just this gang-bang Drive-by thing.
It's really nothing.
What happened with Jenna? She's still for sale, But we kept her from boarding The plane, at least.
Gangbangers, huh? What, you join the crips Or something? I mean, Mike, look, you don't Want to tell me, that's fine.
But I'll keep my mouth shut.
I'm your friend.

Keeping you in the dark Gives you deniability.

Hey.
How's your shoulder? Patched up.
It hurts, but it wasn't deep.
Glad to hear it.
Listen, Mike I understand you got A situation, but so do I.
I mean, I'm covering for you, But if I lose my pension, You're gonna be changing My diapers When I'm 95 and drooling.
Sam, I would never let That happen.
I'd smother you With a pillow first.
Promise me you're not gonna pick Any fights in this place.
It's the only bar in Miami That will let me run a tab.
Hi, mom.
It's Nate.
Bill's been hurt.
You said you were going To get her.
I didn't hear from you.
So I went to the house.
Barely made it Through the front gate.
I thought You were my friend.
I'm sorry.
Something came up.
I need to call the police! This was a bad idea.
She'll be on a plane Within the hour.
Don't call.
We don't have time.
I said I'll take care of it, And I'll take care of it.
What are you gonna do? Same plan as before, Just a different target.
running an operation, you can't let personal feelings Get in the way.
it's about planning And execution You have to get out.
Now! Now! not about being angry.
Come on! Let's go! Move it! Wow, this is Really well-made.
Open the door.
Out! Piss me off.
Move.
Whoa, whoa! Do you know Who my brother is? I know who he is, And I know what he does.
Get off me, man! You're making although, occasionally, You may get a little angry.
Helping people's Not a bad gig, bro, But if you want to make Some real money, I could hook you up.
Did you pay them back, These guys you owe? Yeah.
Most of it.
Look, they're not gonna be Visiting mom for a while, All right? Think he suffocated? You ready to call Your brother, Let him know You want to go home? I think that's a "yeah.
" I want my brother back.
How much? We don't want your money, Which is not to say That we want you to have it.
We want all your records And all the money you made From all the girls you pimped.
Pimped? I'm not a pimp.
You say tomato.
I say pimp.
You can keep Whatever you made legally From, you know, The photo studio, But the girls Get the rest of it.
What are you, Some kind of crusading cop? No, Unfortunately for you, I'm just some guy You managed to piss off.
Your brother's In a trunk of a car, carl.
He's eating On 10 bucks a day.
That's a bag of chips, A sandwich, and a coke.
Tomorrow he eats on 5, And we'll be down To sugar packets by friday.
And just so there's No misunderstanding, You're going to explain To Jenna Exactly What was waiting for her At the other end Of that flight.
I think that covers it.
We'll wait for your call.
You know I think we could probably Keep some of that money For ourselves.
It's not like the girls Are gonna miss it.
What? They don't know How much there is.
I met some of those girls At the party.
Some of them Probably couldn't even count.
There is a reason family is always a good source Of leverage, whether it's a brother That always owes people money or a brother Stuck in the trunk of a car.
you can't really turn Your back on them.
Out.
Come on.
Walk.
Walk.

you fill them In on the answers, and then it dawns on them the truth.
it can be A little overwhelming.
Neat.
What's this? What's this, huh? Oh, neat.
