Las Vegas s01e12 Episode Script
Hellraisers and Heartbreakers
[Upbeat country music.]
And they're coming out.
BROOKS: Let's try and get something going.
Come on.
You feeling lucky? Like a puppy with two peters.
Give 'em here.
All right.
I'm passing the dice.
- Mr.
Brooks passes.
Mr.
Dunn is the shooter.
- $2,000 on the pass line.
There you go.
Step up.
Whoa.
Hey, come here.
You gotta blow on these dice.
Come here.
Sure thing, cowboys.
Lady Luck.
Make it $4,000.
Yeah, I got $4,000.
Hit something.
Come on! STICKMAN: Seven.
[All cheering.]
[Country music continues.]
RICHIE: Excuse me.
Mary Connell? MARY: Yeah.
RICHIE: I'm Richie Phillips.
MARY: Hi.
- How are you? - You ready for tonight? I am.
I want to thank you for your faith in me and getting me this gig, considering my reputation.
We have only one rule here.
All comedians have to be funny.
All the time or just on-stage? [Country music continues.]
It's just that I had a tough year back home, you know.
But my business has picked up, and you know me.
I always bounce back.
Yeah.
I can't comp your room on this trip.
Sam, I was one of your first clients.
You cornered me at the Gold Coast.
Do you remember? Heck, you were wearing jeans back then.
I can comp your food.
That's it.
Sam, I thought we were friends.
I'm sorry.
[Country music continues.]
Danny, I think you guys are doing an incredible job.
But your equipment's 20 years out of date.
Mr.
Keller, we have the best security record on The Strip.
That's why we've saved the flagship for last.
We've updated facilities in London, Monte Carlo, the Bahamas, New Orleans.
[Suspenseful instrumental music.]
[Mechanical humming.]
[Humming stops.]
KELLER: Eventually computers will make human surveillance obsolete and you and I, well, we'll be guarding the gift shop.
I can't wait for you to meet Big Ed.
[Cell phone rings.]
DANNY: Yeah.
MAN: We have a breach.
Someone just entered the holding vault.
[Suspenseful instrumental music.]
So I guess our little security system works.
DANNY: Nessa? Black is very slimming on you, my friend.
Well, give us a kiss then.
[Both laughing.]
[Theme music.]
Eddie, your old analogue system depended on videotape to analyse current threats and archive past events.
That system worked since we opened this joint.
Guy speaks six languages, and he still uses words like "joint.
" KELLER: How many VCRs you have? DANNY: 300, give or take.
- They ever jam or eat tape? - Nothing I can't handle.
My system replaces 300 VCRs with a series of hard drives that are instantly accessible.
No searching, no slow rewind.
That way, if some jamoke, and I can use those words, too tries to take you down for $5 or 50 large, you've got him.
This system works, so why would I fix it? Because the bad guys are getting bolder and more sophisticated every day and because Brunson wants it.
Okay, so how long would it take to change this whole system over? Seventy-two hours.
Great.
You got 48.
That's not gonna give us very much time to catch up.
We caught up for two days in Bangkok once, and it took me a week to recover.
Ed, this guy looks real good and everything with all this state-of-the-art equipment, but if he's so good - how come I've never heard of him? - We worked together.
In Vegas? No, not in Vegas.
So every time I ask a question like this, you're just gonna Well, do you mind if I take a look at the schematics? No, I don't mind.
Why don't you call Mike? He'll go over everything with you.
All right.
Bangkok, huh? [Upbeat instrumental music.]
Richie, there is something I have to talk to you about.
The Portland Dangler? You seem so normal, especially for a comedian.
You know what? It just sort of happened one night.
I was on-stage in Portland, Oregon, and there was a lady sitting ringside and she was complaining to this poor waitress about her vodka tonic.
About how it was vodka on the bottom and tonic on top and how they hadn't stirred it properly.
She just wouldn't shut up about this vodka tonic, so I got down there and I stirred it for her.
With your Yeah.
And the Portland Dangler was born.
Did you get arrested? No, but you gotta watch out for those limes.
They sting like hell.
[Laughs.]
[All cheering.]
Come here.
Look, Richie, I know it's kind of your trademark and everything but you can't do it here.
You know, that is the worst Catch-22, because everyone's gonna be coming to see the Dangler.
But if I do it, I get thrown out after one show.
I work for a man named Ed Deline who's kind of old-fashioned about public nudity.
Yeah? So this Ed guy, he'd get angry? It's the last drink you'd ever stir.
- One and another one.
- I hear horns honking.
Come on, man.
This is important.
Please.
I don't even know what I'm looking for.
Software anomalies? System vulnerability? Holes in the firewall? Danny, this is a completely proprietary system.
- That's, uh - I hope you get shot in your other foot.
Thanks, Mike.
SAM: Excuse me.
Give me another double.
DANNY: Hey! Hey.
Hey.
SAM: I want to ask you something.
DANNY: Shoot.
What's wrong with me? Is that a trick question? DANNY: Could I get a cup of coffee? SAM: Where's my drink? I, uh I pulled the plug on one of my oldest clients today.
Didn't really bother me.
That's your job, Sam.
- I don't have a house.
- You have a suite here.
Or an apartment or a condo.
I do have a hotel room.
I am a sad and sorry mystery.
I don't think that you're that mysterious.
I think that you're direct, you're straightforward, you're frank.
- As for sad, maybe - No, I push people away.
I'm not sweet.
Okay, I think you're being a little hard on yourself.
DANNY: Maybe you should go upstairs and lie down for a little bit.
Yeah.
Maybe I should go to my hotel room.
Your cell phone.
Hey, come here.
I grew up in this town.
I know that it can be very lonely.
Danny.
Would you like to hang out with me? Now? I mean, would you like to get to know me better outside of work? [Giggles.]
Yeah.
- Really? - Yeah.
Walk me to my hotel room.
[Whistles.]
[Players talking excitedly.]
We got her heating up here a little bit.
Press up the six and the eight.
STICKMAN: $2,000 on the six and eight for Mr.
Brooks and Mr.
Dunn.
- Same here.
- Roll on it, Slim.
All right.
Three plus three.
Country singer has got to pee! Come on! [All cheering.]
$10 million a shift can pass through the tables into the lockboxes.
Monte Carlo, Sun City, Singapore.
There's no place like Las Vegas.
- I heard you old men really knew how to - What with the old men? I've heard you old men really knew how to tear it up back in the day.
Back in the day? Back in the day, we did some Stone Age scamming on the most beautiful ladies on the planet.
Whoa.
What are you telling her? I was a married man, Keller.
Then I'm sure you can enlighten me with your theories on men and women.
- You ready? - Yes.
Men and women are different.
- That's it? - What do you mean? Yeah.
Tell her the time thing.
Okay.
A girl's walking down The Strip.
Good-looking guy pulls up in a brand-new Ferrari.
He says, "Do you have the time?" She says, "2:30.
" And he points to a penthouse on top of the Montecito.
He says to her, "Hey, I find you very attractive "and I'd like to make love to you in my penthouse up there," right? So out of 100 women, how many women do you think would go? I don't know.
Maybe 10.
What's your point? Okay, guy's walking down The Strip.
Less-than-wonderful-looking broad pulls up in a beat-up Tercel.
She says, "Do you have the time?" He says, "2:30.
" And she points to a tenement apartment on top of a beat-up liquor store and she says, "I find you very attractive.
I'd like to go a couple of rounds.
" And? And every single guy would go.
They'd not only go.
They'd brag to their friends and the friends think he's the luckiest guy on Earth.
- You see, men and women are different.
- Absolutely.
Don't overthink it.
Those two right there.
What do you think? Your odds say 10-to-1 against.
- Ten-to-one, my man.
- Ouch.
Come on, champ.
Let's go.
[Nessa laughs.]
Ten-to-one.
I'm betting my glove.
Okay, get 'em.
Who's the boss? Who's the boss? Do you have the time? Dead in the water.
DANNY: Every room at the Montecito comes complete with 600-thread-count sheets complimentary gourmet coffee and really yummy snacks.
[Sam giggles.]
Home sweet home.
[Chuckles.]
You want to come in? Uh Um, I should probably get back down.
Okay.
Bye.
The changeover's 20% complete.
Right on time.
I think we're ahead of schedule.
You know, I used to read all your old files.
Athens, Moscow, Bosnia, Somalia.
Read what files? What the heck for? You want to be the best, you study the best.
Do me a favour.
Save that, will you? KELLER: Hey, I have something for you.
Joe.
JOE: Yeah.
KELLER: Wait till you see this.
Here you are, sir.
- This is a - A Somali chieftain's mask.
The workmanship, that's fantastic.
The Somalis gave it as a sign of friendship and respect for their mentors.
Thank you very much, Jack.
Go ahead.
Try it on.
Come on.
No, really.
It's got a special lining that moulds to the first wearer's face.
They say these things suck the spirit out of you.
Don't be a hump.
Just try it on, please.
ED: What a hump.
ED: Are you happy? [Cell phone rings.]
KELLER: Let me hold that thing.
[Cell phone rings.]
ED: Yeah.
DANNY: It's Danny.
Since you're right by Pit 8, could you stop and talk to Nessa? She's got a possible dice switch.
Pit 8? Wait a minute.
I'm at Bella Sera.
DANNY: Bella Sera? Wait a minute.
How long we been sitting here? Five minutes.
We'll be right there.
Come on, Jack.
ED: What are we looking at? DANNY: We're supposed to be live.
[Sighs.]
KELLER: I'll run a quick diagnostic.
Thank you.
[Chattering.]
DANNY: All right, that's you leaving the Bella Sera.
I don't know what the hell's going on.
Come on, Jack.
We need to be live.
- We were there five minutes ago.
- Must be some delay in the system.
Hey, fast-forward that.
I want to see what we missed.
It's not responding.
I'll have to reboot.
- Listen, bring up everything live.
- Yes, sir.
Now, what is the possibility that this is a malfunction in the system? There's an 80% chance that it's a software anomaly but my people will take care of that.
We gotta go back to the old system.
That's a good idea.
How long will that take to bring it back? The two systems are incompatible.
We can't switch back.
Then we gotta speed this thing up.
We're holding a lot of cash.
I gotta get this done in 24 hours.
Don't worry.
It'll be done.
Okay, good.
Danny, check all the guests' credit cards and their driver's licenses.
See if the computer can flag down anybody that's had both issued in the last six months.
Good idea.
There's a small chance somebody's hacked into this computer.
And 20% that it's not a software glitch could mean that we've got a wild card.
Somebody could be trying to take down my casino.
Normally, we have four armoured car pickups a day.
You know, minimise our risk.
And you randomise your times so the bad guys don't learn your schedule.
What would you do if you were me? Until I discovered the source of the missing five minutes I'd double security on the holding room and suspend all pickups.
That's good.
I did that.
I'd also call Brunson and tell him that this Jack Keller's having some problems with his new security system.
Jack, would I do something like that? Would I rat you out? In the old days, we used to call that "anticipatory deniability.
" The old days.
But you know it's not the Company.
This is my show, and I'm responsible for what goes down and nobody takes my money.
Always the good soldier, Ed.
Cold-ass warrior.
But an analogue man in a digital world.
[Lock buzzes.]
Ready to scan.
You gonna reprogramme the facial recognition? ED: Yes, for now.
Till the new system is secured I'll be the only one that can access the vault.
You don't trust me? Not as far as I can spit.
But if it's any consolation to you, I love you like a brother.
[Laughs.]
I guess I'm good with that.
I'm good you're good with that.
[Loudly.]
Is it necessary to be this loud? I think deaf people see me walking down the street, and they say: [Very loudly.]
"Could you keep it down a little bit?" [Laughter.]
I got a lot on my plate so I'm holding you personally responsible for him.
Understand? Yeah, I understand.
MIKE: From what I can tell it doesn't look like anybody can tap in from the outside.
Do you think it might be his software? I do see something pinging through the hotel Internet but it's obviously some kind of error.
I don't think we're vulnerable here.
MIKE: You listening? Let me ask you something.
If the hottest female in this place invites you up to her room, no questions asked, do you go? Don't tell me you and Delinda are back.
DANNY: No.
No.
You and Nessa? [Phone ringing.]
Mary, Mary! You guys finally got No, no.
That's a whole other thing.
Trust me.
[Rhythmic instrumental music.]
- Oh, no.
- Yeah.
You got that sick look.
I know.
What the hell was I thinking, right? It could totally work.
MIKE: Not Sam.
Have you lost your mind? DANNY: What? Danny, this chick will mince you up into itty-bitty white-boy meatballs.
[Stammering.]
I think she's kinda sweet.
DANNY: Maybe not exactly sweet MIKE: You're booty-struck, son.
I'm a man.
I know what it is.
You better get a grip.
- You know something that I don't? - Put it this way.
I've seen men try, and I've seen men die.
You wanna keep your sanity you stay away from one Samantha Jane Marquez.
Oh, I get Okay.
Okay.
MIKE: Don't listen to me.
White-boy meatballs.
[Audience applauding.]
RICHIE: What if Al Pacino was your blackjack dealer? RICHIE: He's a cool guy, right? RICHIE: Can you imagine Al Pacino as your blackjack dealer: [Lmitating Al Pacino.]
"You want me to hit you? You want me to hit you.
"You're gonna know when I hit you, baby.
That's right.
" HECKLER: Hey, Richie! My drink needs stirring! Then it would behove you to ask your waitress, ass-bite.
[Audience laughing.]
[Audience cheering.]
ALL: [Chanting.]
Dangler! Dangler! Dangler! Dangler! Don't do it, Richie.
He won't.
He promised.
You wanna see the Dangler? Is that what you're asking for? RICHIE: Are you sure? [Cheering.]
I don't know.
I probably shouldn't do this.
For you, I'll do it.
RICHIE: Is this what you want? [Audience applauding.]
Oh! RICHIE: Oh, that's cold! And that's deep! [Applauding continues.]
Take it easy, Eddie.
The audience loved it.
- Yeah.
- The Portland Dangler.
[Laughing.]
I thought it was funny stuff.
I hate prop comics.
We used to topple governments for a living, and now we emcee The Gong Show and guard the take from some lousy slot machines.
Whatever happened to us? I don't know.
But I'll tell you what.
I sure love it.
MARY: Look, I am so sorry.
ED: I don't want to hear it.
Now, is he still here? I think so, yes.
You think so, yes? Will you tell this Portland Dangler if he doesn't want to become the Vegas Eunuch he's to get off this property as soon as possible.
Is that clear? Yes.
Yes? Yes, what? Sir? Okay, take care.
You want me to send some security to help you No, sir.
I can take care of it.
ED: Don't get cute with me.
MARY: I'm not.
What do you two guys got? MIKE: I ran a debug via the main A.
P.
S.
T.
Programme which handles all the task assignment, application, execution Whoa, whoa.
English.
Best guess, there's nothing nefarious going on.
It's just what it looks like: A glitch.
Unless Check this out.
The computer did spit out one thing.
New credit card, new driver's license.
Alisa Sarver.
Pine Bluff, Arkansas.
Arkansas, my ass.
You don't know who that is? - No.
- Oh.
You're looking at Karla Marin.
Whoa, the queen of the hackers.
There must be a thousand websites devoted to her.
I didn't know they'd let her out.
That chick's an ex-convict? Oh, yeah.
Stole 15,000 pristine credit-card accounts and got away with $8 million before they found out what happened.
That is the hottest geek I've ever seen.
[Computer beeping.]
Hey.
Wow.
You really should have knocked.
Why do you have our surveillance monitors on your Get in.
[Players shouting.]
Hey, hey! - The answer's yes.
- Yes, what? I don't know what the hell I was thinking.
I was a little surprised by the whole thing yesterday Yesterday, uh Oh, yesterday.
You had your shot.
You couldn't close.
It's done.
Wait.
That's it? That's all I get? What about the sad mystery? The pushing people away? Don't overthink it.
[Shouting continues.]
Hey, Danny, how you doing? [Laughs.]
How's it going? Going a little better than you, by the sound of things, huh? What you need's a hat.
Cover that up.
Only guy in here with worse hair than Ronnie Dunn.
Yeah.
Hey, give me $100 on that.
Chicks'll really dig you now.
It's a party.
Go have fun.
DANNY: I will.
DUNN: Forty-four! Eight, where is he? [All cheering.]
All right, let's just say you leave and we'll pretend this is all a big joke.
Do you think this is a joke? Two priests and a monkey walk into a bar.
That's a joke.
This is real.
You'll never get away with this.
Ed Deline will nail your ass before you get 10 feet out the door.
Really? Not if I nail his first.
Sequence initiated.
We're right on schedule.
Perfect.
Miss Marin, you have a moment, please? [Cheering.]
[Laughs.]
[Upbeat country music.]
Come on, Slim.
One more time, pal.
Here we go.
One time.
[All cheering.]
We've checked your room and your rent-a-car.
They've both come up clean.
It's nice to know housekeeping is so thorough.
But the terms of my parole state that I have to stay away from computers not cards and dice.
I understand.
But unfortunately we prefer you take your action elsewhere.
But I'm not done playing, Mr.
Deline.
Miss Marin, you are here.
[Players shouting.]
[Horse neighing.]
[Woman giggles.]
Ladies, thank you kindly.
[Shouting continues.]
I had to see this one for myself, and it's even worse than I thought.
Aren't you supposed to catch bad guys? Big Ed done took care of them varmints for me.
Oh, God.
Know what happens when you play a country song backwards? Your truck gets fixed, your dog gets better, and your old lady comes back.
You're hopeless.
Hey, have you seen Mary? Sam's been looking for her all afternoon.
Mary's probably still wrangling the Dangler.
He's such a pig.
You wouldn't know why Sam's looking for Mary, would you? No.
You'll have to ask her yourself.
Okay.
See you.
Wait a minute.
You slept with Sam, didn't you? No, I No.
- But something happened.
- No.
I swear to God.
- Okay.
- Okay.
- Okay.
- Okay.
Excuse me.
Why would you care? 'Cause you're still in love with me, cowboy.
Choo-choo-choo.
Whoo-whoo.
Giddyap.
[Players cheering.]
I heard you were looking for Mary.
I want to confirm my guests for the Brooks & Dunn concert.
She's gone AWOL.
Is there a problem? I'm sorry.
I'm a bit mesmerised by the hat.
- You like that, don't you? - You look like an idiot.
Nice chatting with you.
Danny, wait.
DANNY: [Laughing.]
Whoa.
Easy.
I want to apologise about this morning.
By pile-driving me into the slot machine? I'm sorry about that.
Listen, last night I was drunk and a little vulnerable and you didn't take advantage of me, which was very sweet.
- You're welcome.
- But kind of stupid, no? Look, I think that we did the right thing.
Well, yeah, I think we did the right thing, too.
Good.
Do you want to come up to my room right now? What's the magic word? - Dump the hat.
- Close enough.
Ooh! RICHIE: I know what you're thinking.
How did a nice guy like me get involved in high-tech theft? Well, I'm glad you asked.
On the road, man, you get bored.
Just another day, another crappy motel room watching Oprah again, downloading porn, again.
It's mind-numbingly boring, until I discover I have a talent.
It's not for impressions.
[Lmitating Christopher Walken.]
It's for making on-line security systems a little less secure.
I hacked a site that turned out to be run by some very dangerous guys.
I logged off quickly, but they found me.
A couple days later, I get off-stage and some big guys are waiting with some big guns.
I didn't have a choice.
I had to go to work for 'em.
RICHIE: [ln normal voice.]
That's when I learned something.
It's a lot easier to steal people's money than it is to make 'em laugh.
But you're actually funny.
Really? Do you mean that? Well, it doesn't matter.
Done.
Delay sequence complete.
[Panting.]
Who's that? [Lmitating Arnold Schwarzenegger.]
I'd tell you, but I'd have to kill you.
Right.
SAM: Bedroom.
SAM: And the lovely living room.
DANNY: Are you moving? I always keep my bags packed.
DANNY: Why? I'm not the kind of girl who puts down roots.
I guess you never know when you'll get a better offer, huh? Yeah.
Never know.
KELLER: Hey, you ever consider going freelance? I think we'd make a great team.
I could be the brains, and you And you could be the old guy.
Yeah.
Be the old guy that kicks your ass.
Maybe.
So here's to your new security system, fully installed, operational.
Welcome to the 21st century.
ED: Whoa, whoa.
Let's drink to the Communists without whom we would never have met.
KELLER: To the Communists.
There's only eight of those little bastards left, right? Castro's still running around in those same fatigues.
I'm sure they are the same.
Wait.
But don't forget Kim Jong II.
To Kim Jong II.
The Al Davis of Korea.
[Laughing.]
Very good, Ed.
[Soft instrumental music.]
Well, what's next, my friend? I'm gonna head down to Panama review the security on the perimeter of the Canal.
Yeah, I always liked Panama.
Now, was that before or after you yanked Noriega out of there? I read that file, remember? Sometimes the legend exceeds the truth.
Except in your case, right? I wasn't joking, Ed, when I said I need a partner.
Thanks, Jack.
I gotta stay.
But you You, my friend, you have a great trip.
You bet I will.
RICHIE: What do you think the chances are that after this is all done, me and you could you know, hook up? Oh, I'm sure we'll see each other again.
Yeah? I could try to arrange a private showing of the Portland Dangler.
I'm sorry.
I only book the big acts.
[Chuckles.]
[Sighs.]
That's funny.
[Gags.]
You're the funny girl.
Yeah.
Man, that was so funny.
You're just a little comedienne, aren't you? RICHIE: So funny I forgot to laugh! What a bitch.
[Laughing.]
Clean sweep of subsystems What do we got going? Just finishing up a low-level diagnostic of the new software.
It all looks pretty good.
- Good.
- Is Jack gone? Jack? Oh, yeah.
Thank God.
It's about time.
That guy was driving me nuts.
[Computer beeps.]
- Hold on.
- I see it.
- We've been locked out.
- What do you mean locked out? The system clock has been reset again.
We've been watching video from five minutes ago.
Find out where the bastard is.
Run a trace.
MIKE: Isolating.
That's twice, you know.
Wait.
The interference isn't random this time.
It's coming from inside the hotel.
Give me a minute, and I will pinpoint it.
[Cell phone rings.]
DANNY: Yeah? ED: [On phone.]
Hey, kid, where are you? Upstairs.
Why? ED: We've been hacked again, but this time we located the source.
The hallway near the Bella Sera kitchen.
How fast can you get there? DANNY: Two minutes.
ED: Well, what are you waiting for? I'm on my way.
DANNY: You should unpack.
I never unpack.
[Soft instrumental music.]
[Lmitating Ed.]
Where in the hell are you? You should be there by now.
Hurry up.
Sorry, sir.
CHEF: Excuse me.
I'm standing outside the Bella Sera.
I don't see anything.
ED: Who the hell sent you there? DANNY: [On phone.]
You.
Me? Are you out of your mind? What the hell's going on here? - Got it.
- Wait a minute.
The dressing room behind the Mystique.
Get going.
[Gasping.]
[Panting.]
MARY: Did he get away? DANNY: I don't know.
Are you okay? You're here.
How is she? She's okay.
She's pissed.
I'm not overjoyed myself.
Mr.
D.
, I think I've partially restored the missing five minutes.
Go to the hallway outside the Mystique dressing room.
Put it on the centre monitor.
Following him to stairwell 32.
Jack's system is pretty cool.
Forget cool.
Go to the adjacent cameras of the matching time sequences.
Re-cuing now.
[Fast-paced instrumental music.]
Richie sent me to the Bella Sera just to buy some time.
Time for what? It doesn't make sense.
Wait a minute.
Go to the holding vault.
The computer isn't showing any activity in the area.
Go to any activity at the vault within the last 15 hours.
On screen three.
That's you, Ed.
The hell it is.
[Players cheering.]
Sir, I know it's valuable, but I can't take a belt buckle in lieu of chips.
PLAYER: Yeah, well, it's 14-carat.
On six for $3,000 there.
$1,000 on one.
Come on.
BROOKS: And $10,000 on the NESSA: Guys.
Hey! It's an hour before your show.
What are you two - Nessa, Nessa - Find Mary.
l've never, never seen a roll like this.
This is unbelievable! Check it out, huh? NESSA: It's great.
DUNN: There you go.
DUNN: Watch this.
Look, I'll make sure your chips are stacked and packed.
NESSA: But you better go.
You've been here 24 hours.
- Don't you have a sound check? - Yeah, right.
Whatever.
I got your sound check.
[Singing.]
Marie [All cheering.]
DUNN: How's that for a sound check? Trust me.
That's as good as it gets, too.
NESSA: Guys Sound check's for sissies.
We're throwing dice here.
DUNN: Come on.
BROOKS: Get it, pappy! Six the hard way.
[All cheering.]
Guys, guys.
You've got to go.
I'll colour you up.
Why don't we call it? I'll tell you what.
$10,000 for the dealers.
$20,000.
Here you go.
We're colouring in.
Wow! Whoo! [Laughs.]
Son of a That first five minutes made us expedite the changeover.
And took our attention away from the vault.
That's when they hit us.
And the second delay gave them enough time to escape with the $50 million.
But you were the only one with access to the vault.
Me and Jack Keller.
[Cell phone rings.]
Yeah.
ED: [On phone.]
Somebody ripped us off.
I need you.
Stop messing with me, Eddie.
The system is foolproof.
ED: I'm not messing with you.
Someone just snatched $50 million.
- Yeah? Who? - If I knew who, I wouldn't need you.
Come back here right now.
Signal stationary.
Eight miles.
I'm turning around now.
I'll be there in 10 minutes.
Is he moving? Got status? Not moving.
Not moving.
Jack, your car's not moving.
My compliments, Ed.
Not bad for an analogue guy, huh? I didn't know how long it would take you to put it together but you're hours ahead of where I thought you'd be.
The main thing I learned from going through your files is that your ego always clouded your judgment which is what made you such an easy mark.
And you definitely should have taken me up on my offer because once Brunson thinks that you and some whacked-out stand-up comedian helped me rip him off for $50 million I hate saying this, Ed but you'll won't get a job guarding a doughnut shop.
Since you got everything figured out, Jack you mind if I point out a little mistake, you know, just as a professional courtesy? Yeah, sure.
I always appreciate constructive operational analysis, Ed.
ED: If I were robbing me, I'd make sure I checked everything especially the stuff I was trying to steal.
RICHIE: What? KELLER: I got this.
[Suspenseful instrumental music.]
Jack? Ed.
ED: I read a little, too.
And I read your file.
And it said, whether you topple governments or kill 10 people you never leave the job empty-handed.
One more thing, pal.
I'm really disappointed.
[Soft instrumental music.]
Eddie, you sure you don't want to come with me? Jack.
Just run, you son of a bitch.
Run as fast as you can, okay? Everything all right? Yeah.
Yeah.
Let's lock this up.
- You look worried.
- No, not a bit.
Come on.
[Fast-paced instrumental music.]
[Sirens wailing.]
Thanks, boss.
Hey, I really appreciate you guys.
I love you and Thank you.
Wish I could stay and hang, but I gotta go upstairs.
- Appreciate the job.
Thanks.
- Here's to you.
We made some money this week.
It's unusual for us.
Well, have a good time.
ED: Thank you.
[Excited chattering.]
Mary! Now where have you been? You missed the show tonight, huh? Yeah, I was a little tied up.
You know what? Hey, would you guys mind if we borrowed a guitar? Be okay? Steal his act.
Ought to do something for these girls.
Mary missed the show.
BROOKS: She's made us rich.
Oh, we gotta sing something for Lady Luck here.
BROOKS: That's right.
DUNN: Delinda Deline.
You, too, Nessa.
[Laughs.]
Get your harp outta your pocket, cowboy.
[Singing.]
What she wants is a man to be faithful True heart, somebody willing and able To stay by her side through thick and thin A tender touch every now and then [Brooks harmonising.]
She's not hung up on fairytales Or some dream at the bottom of a wishing well [Whispers.]
I wanna take you somewhere.
- Now? - Not gonna ask you again.
DUNN: [Singing.]
What she wants most are the little things That's what she gets That's what she gets That's what she gets for lovin' me Sometimes I lay awake at night [Slow country song.]
DANNY: So how come I never heard of this place? SAM: You gotta know someone.
I like it.
It's the best place to look at the stars.
Reminds me of where I grew up.
Which is? A girl's gotta have some secrets.
Phoenix.
- Phoenix? - Or Tucson.
Or I don't know.
Seems like a lot of really smokin' chicks come from either Phoenix or Tucson.
I unpacked my bags.
Yep.
I saw it.
[Slow country song continues.]
And they're coming out.
BROOKS: Let's try and get something going.
Come on.
You feeling lucky? Like a puppy with two peters.
Give 'em here.
All right.
I'm passing the dice.
- Mr.
Brooks passes.
Mr.
Dunn is the shooter.
- $2,000 on the pass line.
There you go.
Step up.
Whoa.
Hey, come here.
You gotta blow on these dice.
Come here.
Sure thing, cowboys.
Lady Luck.
Make it $4,000.
Yeah, I got $4,000.
Hit something.
Come on! STICKMAN: Seven.
[All cheering.]
[Country music continues.]
RICHIE: Excuse me.
Mary Connell? MARY: Yeah.
RICHIE: I'm Richie Phillips.
MARY: Hi.
- How are you? - You ready for tonight? I am.
I want to thank you for your faith in me and getting me this gig, considering my reputation.
We have only one rule here.
All comedians have to be funny.
All the time or just on-stage? [Country music continues.]
It's just that I had a tough year back home, you know.
But my business has picked up, and you know me.
I always bounce back.
Yeah.
I can't comp your room on this trip.
Sam, I was one of your first clients.
You cornered me at the Gold Coast.
Do you remember? Heck, you were wearing jeans back then.
I can comp your food.
That's it.
Sam, I thought we were friends.
I'm sorry.
[Country music continues.]
Danny, I think you guys are doing an incredible job.
But your equipment's 20 years out of date.
Mr.
Keller, we have the best security record on The Strip.
That's why we've saved the flagship for last.
We've updated facilities in London, Monte Carlo, the Bahamas, New Orleans.
[Suspenseful instrumental music.]
[Mechanical humming.]
[Humming stops.]
KELLER: Eventually computers will make human surveillance obsolete and you and I, well, we'll be guarding the gift shop.
I can't wait for you to meet Big Ed.
[Cell phone rings.]
DANNY: Yeah.
MAN: We have a breach.
Someone just entered the holding vault.
[Suspenseful instrumental music.]
So I guess our little security system works.
DANNY: Nessa? Black is very slimming on you, my friend.
Well, give us a kiss then.
[Both laughing.]
[Theme music.]
Eddie, your old analogue system depended on videotape to analyse current threats and archive past events.
That system worked since we opened this joint.
Guy speaks six languages, and he still uses words like "joint.
" KELLER: How many VCRs you have? DANNY: 300, give or take.
- They ever jam or eat tape? - Nothing I can't handle.
My system replaces 300 VCRs with a series of hard drives that are instantly accessible.
No searching, no slow rewind.
That way, if some jamoke, and I can use those words, too tries to take you down for $5 or 50 large, you've got him.
This system works, so why would I fix it? Because the bad guys are getting bolder and more sophisticated every day and because Brunson wants it.
Okay, so how long would it take to change this whole system over? Seventy-two hours.
Great.
You got 48.
That's not gonna give us very much time to catch up.
We caught up for two days in Bangkok once, and it took me a week to recover.
Ed, this guy looks real good and everything with all this state-of-the-art equipment, but if he's so good - how come I've never heard of him? - We worked together.
In Vegas? No, not in Vegas.
So every time I ask a question like this, you're just gonna Well, do you mind if I take a look at the schematics? No, I don't mind.
Why don't you call Mike? He'll go over everything with you.
All right.
Bangkok, huh? [Upbeat instrumental music.]
Richie, there is something I have to talk to you about.
The Portland Dangler? You seem so normal, especially for a comedian.
You know what? It just sort of happened one night.
I was on-stage in Portland, Oregon, and there was a lady sitting ringside and she was complaining to this poor waitress about her vodka tonic.
About how it was vodka on the bottom and tonic on top and how they hadn't stirred it properly.
She just wouldn't shut up about this vodka tonic, so I got down there and I stirred it for her.
With your Yeah.
And the Portland Dangler was born.
Did you get arrested? No, but you gotta watch out for those limes.
They sting like hell.
[Laughs.]
[All cheering.]
Come here.
Look, Richie, I know it's kind of your trademark and everything but you can't do it here.
You know, that is the worst Catch-22, because everyone's gonna be coming to see the Dangler.
But if I do it, I get thrown out after one show.
I work for a man named Ed Deline who's kind of old-fashioned about public nudity.
Yeah? So this Ed guy, he'd get angry? It's the last drink you'd ever stir.
- One and another one.
- I hear horns honking.
Come on, man.
This is important.
Please.
I don't even know what I'm looking for.
Software anomalies? System vulnerability? Holes in the firewall? Danny, this is a completely proprietary system.
- That's, uh - I hope you get shot in your other foot.
Thanks, Mike.
SAM: Excuse me.
Give me another double.
DANNY: Hey! Hey.
Hey.
SAM: I want to ask you something.
DANNY: Shoot.
What's wrong with me? Is that a trick question? DANNY: Could I get a cup of coffee? SAM: Where's my drink? I, uh I pulled the plug on one of my oldest clients today.
Didn't really bother me.
That's your job, Sam.
- I don't have a house.
- You have a suite here.
Or an apartment or a condo.
I do have a hotel room.
I am a sad and sorry mystery.
I don't think that you're that mysterious.
I think that you're direct, you're straightforward, you're frank.
- As for sad, maybe - No, I push people away.
I'm not sweet.
Okay, I think you're being a little hard on yourself.
DANNY: Maybe you should go upstairs and lie down for a little bit.
Yeah.
Maybe I should go to my hotel room.
Your cell phone.
Hey, come here.
I grew up in this town.
I know that it can be very lonely.
Danny.
Would you like to hang out with me? Now? I mean, would you like to get to know me better outside of work? [Giggles.]
Yeah.
- Really? - Yeah.
Walk me to my hotel room.
[Whistles.]
[Players talking excitedly.]
We got her heating up here a little bit.
Press up the six and the eight.
STICKMAN: $2,000 on the six and eight for Mr.
Brooks and Mr.
Dunn.
- Same here.
- Roll on it, Slim.
All right.
Three plus three.
Country singer has got to pee! Come on! [All cheering.]
$10 million a shift can pass through the tables into the lockboxes.
Monte Carlo, Sun City, Singapore.
There's no place like Las Vegas.
- I heard you old men really knew how to - What with the old men? I've heard you old men really knew how to tear it up back in the day.
Back in the day? Back in the day, we did some Stone Age scamming on the most beautiful ladies on the planet.
Whoa.
What are you telling her? I was a married man, Keller.
Then I'm sure you can enlighten me with your theories on men and women.
- You ready? - Yes.
Men and women are different.
- That's it? - What do you mean? Yeah.
Tell her the time thing.
Okay.
A girl's walking down The Strip.
Good-looking guy pulls up in a brand-new Ferrari.
He says, "Do you have the time?" She says, "2:30.
" And he points to a penthouse on top of the Montecito.
He says to her, "Hey, I find you very attractive "and I'd like to make love to you in my penthouse up there," right? So out of 100 women, how many women do you think would go? I don't know.
Maybe 10.
What's your point? Okay, guy's walking down The Strip.
Less-than-wonderful-looking broad pulls up in a beat-up Tercel.
She says, "Do you have the time?" He says, "2:30.
" And she points to a tenement apartment on top of a beat-up liquor store and she says, "I find you very attractive.
I'd like to go a couple of rounds.
" And? And every single guy would go.
They'd not only go.
They'd brag to their friends and the friends think he's the luckiest guy on Earth.
- You see, men and women are different.
- Absolutely.
Don't overthink it.
Those two right there.
What do you think? Your odds say 10-to-1 against.
- Ten-to-one, my man.
- Ouch.
Come on, champ.
Let's go.
[Nessa laughs.]
Ten-to-one.
I'm betting my glove.
Okay, get 'em.
Who's the boss? Who's the boss? Do you have the time? Dead in the water.
DANNY: Every room at the Montecito comes complete with 600-thread-count sheets complimentary gourmet coffee and really yummy snacks.
[Sam giggles.]
Home sweet home.
[Chuckles.]
You want to come in? Uh Um, I should probably get back down.
Okay.
Bye.
The changeover's 20% complete.
Right on time.
I think we're ahead of schedule.
You know, I used to read all your old files.
Athens, Moscow, Bosnia, Somalia.
Read what files? What the heck for? You want to be the best, you study the best.
Do me a favour.
Save that, will you? KELLER: Hey, I have something for you.
Joe.
JOE: Yeah.
KELLER: Wait till you see this.
Here you are, sir.
- This is a - A Somali chieftain's mask.
The workmanship, that's fantastic.
The Somalis gave it as a sign of friendship and respect for their mentors.
Thank you very much, Jack.
Go ahead.
Try it on.
Come on.
No, really.
It's got a special lining that moulds to the first wearer's face.
They say these things suck the spirit out of you.
Don't be a hump.
Just try it on, please.
ED: What a hump.
ED: Are you happy? [Cell phone rings.]
KELLER: Let me hold that thing.
[Cell phone rings.]
ED: Yeah.
DANNY: It's Danny.
Since you're right by Pit 8, could you stop and talk to Nessa? She's got a possible dice switch.
Pit 8? Wait a minute.
I'm at Bella Sera.
DANNY: Bella Sera? Wait a minute.
How long we been sitting here? Five minutes.
We'll be right there.
Come on, Jack.
ED: What are we looking at? DANNY: We're supposed to be live.
[Sighs.]
KELLER: I'll run a quick diagnostic.
Thank you.
[Chattering.]
DANNY: All right, that's you leaving the Bella Sera.
I don't know what the hell's going on.
Come on, Jack.
We need to be live.
- We were there five minutes ago.
- Must be some delay in the system.
Hey, fast-forward that.
I want to see what we missed.
It's not responding.
I'll have to reboot.
- Listen, bring up everything live.
- Yes, sir.
Now, what is the possibility that this is a malfunction in the system? There's an 80% chance that it's a software anomaly but my people will take care of that.
We gotta go back to the old system.
That's a good idea.
How long will that take to bring it back? The two systems are incompatible.
We can't switch back.
Then we gotta speed this thing up.
We're holding a lot of cash.
I gotta get this done in 24 hours.
Don't worry.
It'll be done.
Okay, good.
Danny, check all the guests' credit cards and their driver's licenses.
See if the computer can flag down anybody that's had both issued in the last six months.
Good idea.
There's a small chance somebody's hacked into this computer.
And 20% that it's not a software glitch could mean that we've got a wild card.
Somebody could be trying to take down my casino.
Normally, we have four armoured car pickups a day.
You know, minimise our risk.
And you randomise your times so the bad guys don't learn your schedule.
What would you do if you were me? Until I discovered the source of the missing five minutes I'd double security on the holding room and suspend all pickups.
That's good.
I did that.
I'd also call Brunson and tell him that this Jack Keller's having some problems with his new security system.
Jack, would I do something like that? Would I rat you out? In the old days, we used to call that "anticipatory deniability.
" The old days.
But you know it's not the Company.
This is my show, and I'm responsible for what goes down and nobody takes my money.
Always the good soldier, Ed.
Cold-ass warrior.
But an analogue man in a digital world.
[Lock buzzes.]
Ready to scan.
You gonna reprogramme the facial recognition? ED: Yes, for now.
Till the new system is secured I'll be the only one that can access the vault.
You don't trust me? Not as far as I can spit.
But if it's any consolation to you, I love you like a brother.
[Laughs.]
I guess I'm good with that.
I'm good you're good with that.
[Loudly.]
Is it necessary to be this loud? I think deaf people see me walking down the street, and they say: [Very loudly.]
"Could you keep it down a little bit?" [Laughter.]
I got a lot on my plate so I'm holding you personally responsible for him.
Understand? Yeah, I understand.
MIKE: From what I can tell it doesn't look like anybody can tap in from the outside.
Do you think it might be his software? I do see something pinging through the hotel Internet but it's obviously some kind of error.
I don't think we're vulnerable here.
MIKE: You listening? Let me ask you something.
If the hottest female in this place invites you up to her room, no questions asked, do you go? Don't tell me you and Delinda are back.
DANNY: No.
No.
You and Nessa? [Phone ringing.]
Mary, Mary! You guys finally got No, no.
That's a whole other thing.
Trust me.
[Rhythmic instrumental music.]
- Oh, no.
- Yeah.
You got that sick look.
I know.
What the hell was I thinking, right? It could totally work.
MIKE: Not Sam.
Have you lost your mind? DANNY: What? Danny, this chick will mince you up into itty-bitty white-boy meatballs.
[Stammering.]
I think she's kinda sweet.
DANNY: Maybe not exactly sweet MIKE: You're booty-struck, son.
I'm a man.
I know what it is.
You better get a grip.
- You know something that I don't? - Put it this way.
I've seen men try, and I've seen men die.
You wanna keep your sanity you stay away from one Samantha Jane Marquez.
Oh, I get Okay.
Okay.
MIKE: Don't listen to me.
White-boy meatballs.
[Audience applauding.]
RICHIE: What if Al Pacino was your blackjack dealer? RICHIE: He's a cool guy, right? RICHIE: Can you imagine Al Pacino as your blackjack dealer: [Lmitating Al Pacino.]
"You want me to hit you? You want me to hit you.
"You're gonna know when I hit you, baby.
That's right.
" HECKLER: Hey, Richie! My drink needs stirring! Then it would behove you to ask your waitress, ass-bite.
[Audience laughing.]
[Audience cheering.]
ALL: [Chanting.]
Dangler! Dangler! Dangler! Dangler! Don't do it, Richie.
He won't.
He promised.
You wanna see the Dangler? Is that what you're asking for? RICHIE: Are you sure? [Cheering.]
I don't know.
I probably shouldn't do this.
For you, I'll do it.
RICHIE: Is this what you want? [Audience applauding.]
Oh! RICHIE: Oh, that's cold! And that's deep! [Applauding continues.]
Take it easy, Eddie.
The audience loved it.
- Yeah.
- The Portland Dangler.
[Laughing.]
I thought it was funny stuff.
I hate prop comics.
We used to topple governments for a living, and now we emcee The Gong Show and guard the take from some lousy slot machines.
Whatever happened to us? I don't know.
But I'll tell you what.
I sure love it.
MARY: Look, I am so sorry.
ED: I don't want to hear it.
Now, is he still here? I think so, yes.
You think so, yes? Will you tell this Portland Dangler if he doesn't want to become the Vegas Eunuch he's to get off this property as soon as possible.
Is that clear? Yes.
Yes? Yes, what? Sir? Okay, take care.
You want me to send some security to help you No, sir.
I can take care of it.
ED: Don't get cute with me.
MARY: I'm not.
What do you two guys got? MIKE: I ran a debug via the main A.
P.
S.
T.
Programme which handles all the task assignment, application, execution Whoa, whoa.
English.
Best guess, there's nothing nefarious going on.
It's just what it looks like: A glitch.
Unless Check this out.
The computer did spit out one thing.
New credit card, new driver's license.
Alisa Sarver.
Pine Bluff, Arkansas.
Arkansas, my ass.
You don't know who that is? - No.
- Oh.
You're looking at Karla Marin.
Whoa, the queen of the hackers.
There must be a thousand websites devoted to her.
I didn't know they'd let her out.
That chick's an ex-convict? Oh, yeah.
Stole 15,000 pristine credit-card accounts and got away with $8 million before they found out what happened.
That is the hottest geek I've ever seen.
[Computer beeping.]
Hey.
Wow.
You really should have knocked.
Why do you have our surveillance monitors on your Get in.
[Players shouting.]
Hey, hey! - The answer's yes.
- Yes, what? I don't know what the hell I was thinking.
I was a little surprised by the whole thing yesterday Yesterday, uh Oh, yesterday.
You had your shot.
You couldn't close.
It's done.
Wait.
That's it? That's all I get? What about the sad mystery? The pushing people away? Don't overthink it.
[Shouting continues.]
Hey, Danny, how you doing? [Laughs.]
How's it going? Going a little better than you, by the sound of things, huh? What you need's a hat.
Cover that up.
Only guy in here with worse hair than Ronnie Dunn.
Yeah.
Hey, give me $100 on that.
Chicks'll really dig you now.
It's a party.
Go have fun.
DANNY: I will.
DUNN: Forty-four! Eight, where is he? [All cheering.]
All right, let's just say you leave and we'll pretend this is all a big joke.
Do you think this is a joke? Two priests and a monkey walk into a bar.
That's a joke.
This is real.
You'll never get away with this.
Ed Deline will nail your ass before you get 10 feet out the door.
Really? Not if I nail his first.
Sequence initiated.
We're right on schedule.
Perfect.
Miss Marin, you have a moment, please? [Cheering.]
[Laughs.]
[Upbeat country music.]
Come on, Slim.
One more time, pal.
Here we go.
One time.
[All cheering.]
We've checked your room and your rent-a-car.
They've both come up clean.
It's nice to know housekeeping is so thorough.
But the terms of my parole state that I have to stay away from computers not cards and dice.
I understand.
But unfortunately we prefer you take your action elsewhere.
But I'm not done playing, Mr.
Deline.
Miss Marin, you are here.
[Players shouting.]
[Horse neighing.]
[Woman giggles.]
Ladies, thank you kindly.
[Shouting continues.]
I had to see this one for myself, and it's even worse than I thought.
Aren't you supposed to catch bad guys? Big Ed done took care of them varmints for me.
Oh, God.
Know what happens when you play a country song backwards? Your truck gets fixed, your dog gets better, and your old lady comes back.
You're hopeless.
Hey, have you seen Mary? Sam's been looking for her all afternoon.
Mary's probably still wrangling the Dangler.
He's such a pig.
You wouldn't know why Sam's looking for Mary, would you? No.
You'll have to ask her yourself.
Okay.
See you.
Wait a minute.
You slept with Sam, didn't you? No, I No.
- But something happened.
- No.
I swear to God.
- Okay.
- Okay.
- Okay.
- Okay.
Excuse me.
Why would you care? 'Cause you're still in love with me, cowboy.
Choo-choo-choo.
Whoo-whoo.
Giddyap.
[Players cheering.]
I heard you were looking for Mary.
I want to confirm my guests for the Brooks & Dunn concert.
She's gone AWOL.
Is there a problem? I'm sorry.
I'm a bit mesmerised by the hat.
- You like that, don't you? - You look like an idiot.
Nice chatting with you.
Danny, wait.
DANNY: [Laughing.]
Whoa.
Easy.
I want to apologise about this morning.
By pile-driving me into the slot machine? I'm sorry about that.
Listen, last night I was drunk and a little vulnerable and you didn't take advantage of me, which was very sweet.
- You're welcome.
- But kind of stupid, no? Look, I think that we did the right thing.
Well, yeah, I think we did the right thing, too.
Good.
Do you want to come up to my room right now? What's the magic word? - Dump the hat.
- Close enough.
Ooh! RICHIE: I know what you're thinking.
How did a nice guy like me get involved in high-tech theft? Well, I'm glad you asked.
On the road, man, you get bored.
Just another day, another crappy motel room watching Oprah again, downloading porn, again.
It's mind-numbingly boring, until I discover I have a talent.
It's not for impressions.
[Lmitating Christopher Walken.]
It's for making on-line security systems a little less secure.
I hacked a site that turned out to be run by some very dangerous guys.
I logged off quickly, but they found me.
A couple days later, I get off-stage and some big guys are waiting with some big guns.
I didn't have a choice.
I had to go to work for 'em.
RICHIE: [ln normal voice.]
That's when I learned something.
It's a lot easier to steal people's money than it is to make 'em laugh.
But you're actually funny.
Really? Do you mean that? Well, it doesn't matter.
Done.
Delay sequence complete.
[Panting.]
Who's that? [Lmitating Arnold Schwarzenegger.]
I'd tell you, but I'd have to kill you.
Right.
SAM: Bedroom.
SAM: And the lovely living room.
DANNY: Are you moving? I always keep my bags packed.
DANNY: Why? I'm not the kind of girl who puts down roots.
I guess you never know when you'll get a better offer, huh? Yeah.
Never know.
KELLER: Hey, you ever consider going freelance? I think we'd make a great team.
I could be the brains, and you And you could be the old guy.
Yeah.
Be the old guy that kicks your ass.
Maybe.
So here's to your new security system, fully installed, operational.
Welcome to the 21st century.
ED: Whoa, whoa.
Let's drink to the Communists without whom we would never have met.
KELLER: To the Communists.
There's only eight of those little bastards left, right? Castro's still running around in those same fatigues.
I'm sure they are the same.
Wait.
But don't forget Kim Jong II.
To Kim Jong II.
The Al Davis of Korea.
[Laughing.]
Very good, Ed.
[Soft instrumental music.]
Well, what's next, my friend? I'm gonna head down to Panama review the security on the perimeter of the Canal.
Yeah, I always liked Panama.
Now, was that before or after you yanked Noriega out of there? I read that file, remember? Sometimes the legend exceeds the truth.
Except in your case, right? I wasn't joking, Ed, when I said I need a partner.
Thanks, Jack.
I gotta stay.
But you You, my friend, you have a great trip.
You bet I will.
RICHIE: What do you think the chances are that after this is all done, me and you could you know, hook up? Oh, I'm sure we'll see each other again.
Yeah? I could try to arrange a private showing of the Portland Dangler.
I'm sorry.
I only book the big acts.
[Chuckles.]
[Sighs.]
That's funny.
[Gags.]
You're the funny girl.
Yeah.
Man, that was so funny.
You're just a little comedienne, aren't you? RICHIE: So funny I forgot to laugh! What a bitch.
[Laughing.]
Clean sweep of subsystems What do we got going? Just finishing up a low-level diagnostic of the new software.
It all looks pretty good.
- Good.
- Is Jack gone? Jack? Oh, yeah.
Thank God.
It's about time.
That guy was driving me nuts.
[Computer beeps.]
- Hold on.
- I see it.
- We've been locked out.
- What do you mean locked out? The system clock has been reset again.
We've been watching video from five minutes ago.
Find out where the bastard is.
Run a trace.
MIKE: Isolating.
That's twice, you know.
Wait.
The interference isn't random this time.
It's coming from inside the hotel.
Give me a minute, and I will pinpoint it.
[Cell phone rings.]
DANNY: Yeah? ED: [On phone.]
Hey, kid, where are you? Upstairs.
Why? ED: We've been hacked again, but this time we located the source.
The hallway near the Bella Sera kitchen.
How fast can you get there? DANNY: Two minutes.
ED: Well, what are you waiting for? I'm on my way.
DANNY: You should unpack.
I never unpack.
[Soft instrumental music.]
[Lmitating Ed.]
Where in the hell are you? You should be there by now.
Hurry up.
Sorry, sir.
CHEF: Excuse me.
I'm standing outside the Bella Sera.
I don't see anything.
ED: Who the hell sent you there? DANNY: [On phone.]
You.
Me? Are you out of your mind? What the hell's going on here? - Got it.
- Wait a minute.
The dressing room behind the Mystique.
Get going.
[Gasping.]
[Panting.]
MARY: Did he get away? DANNY: I don't know.
Are you okay? You're here.
How is she? She's okay.
She's pissed.
I'm not overjoyed myself.
Mr.
D.
, I think I've partially restored the missing five minutes.
Go to the hallway outside the Mystique dressing room.
Put it on the centre monitor.
Following him to stairwell 32.
Jack's system is pretty cool.
Forget cool.
Go to the adjacent cameras of the matching time sequences.
Re-cuing now.
[Fast-paced instrumental music.]
Richie sent me to the Bella Sera just to buy some time.
Time for what? It doesn't make sense.
Wait a minute.
Go to the holding vault.
The computer isn't showing any activity in the area.
Go to any activity at the vault within the last 15 hours.
On screen three.
That's you, Ed.
The hell it is.
[Players cheering.]
Sir, I know it's valuable, but I can't take a belt buckle in lieu of chips.
PLAYER: Yeah, well, it's 14-carat.
On six for $3,000 there.
$1,000 on one.
Come on.
BROOKS: And $10,000 on the NESSA: Guys.
Hey! It's an hour before your show.
What are you two - Nessa, Nessa - Find Mary.
l've never, never seen a roll like this.
This is unbelievable! Check it out, huh? NESSA: It's great.
DUNN: There you go.
DUNN: Watch this.
Look, I'll make sure your chips are stacked and packed.
NESSA: But you better go.
You've been here 24 hours.
- Don't you have a sound check? - Yeah, right.
Whatever.
I got your sound check.
[Singing.]
Marie [All cheering.]
DUNN: How's that for a sound check? Trust me.
That's as good as it gets, too.
NESSA: Guys Sound check's for sissies.
We're throwing dice here.
DUNN: Come on.
BROOKS: Get it, pappy! Six the hard way.
[All cheering.]
Guys, guys.
You've got to go.
I'll colour you up.
Why don't we call it? I'll tell you what.
$10,000 for the dealers.
$20,000.
Here you go.
We're colouring in.
Wow! Whoo! [Laughs.]
Son of a That first five minutes made us expedite the changeover.
And took our attention away from the vault.
That's when they hit us.
And the second delay gave them enough time to escape with the $50 million.
But you were the only one with access to the vault.
Me and Jack Keller.
[Cell phone rings.]
Yeah.
ED: [On phone.]
Somebody ripped us off.
I need you.
Stop messing with me, Eddie.
The system is foolproof.
ED: I'm not messing with you.
Someone just snatched $50 million.
- Yeah? Who? - If I knew who, I wouldn't need you.
Come back here right now.
Signal stationary.
Eight miles.
I'm turning around now.
I'll be there in 10 minutes.
Is he moving? Got status? Not moving.
Not moving.
Jack, your car's not moving.
My compliments, Ed.
Not bad for an analogue guy, huh? I didn't know how long it would take you to put it together but you're hours ahead of where I thought you'd be.
The main thing I learned from going through your files is that your ego always clouded your judgment which is what made you such an easy mark.
And you definitely should have taken me up on my offer because once Brunson thinks that you and some whacked-out stand-up comedian helped me rip him off for $50 million I hate saying this, Ed but you'll won't get a job guarding a doughnut shop.
Since you got everything figured out, Jack you mind if I point out a little mistake, you know, just as a professional courtesy? Yeah, sure.
I always appreciate constructive operational analysis, Ed.
ED: If I were robbing me, I'd make sure I checked everything especially the stuff I was trying to steal.
RICHIE: What? KELLER: I got this.
[Suspenseful instrumental music.]
Jack? Ed.
ED: I read a little, too.
And I read your file.
And it said, whether you topple governments or kill 10 people you never leave the job empty-handed.
One more thing, pal.
I'm really disappointed.
[Soft instrumental music.]
Eddie, you sure you don't want to come with me? Jack.
Just run, you son of a bitch.
Run as fast as you can, okay? Everything all right? Yeah.
Yeah.
Let's lock this up.
- You look worried.
- No, not a bit.
Come on.
[Fast-paced instrumental music.]
[Sirens wailing.]
Thanks, boss.
Hey, I really appreciate you guys.
I love you and Thank you.
Wish I could stay and hang, but I gotta go upstairs.
- Appreciate the job.
Thanks.
- Here's to you.
We made some money this week.
It's unusual for us.
Well, have a good time.
ED: Thank you.
[Excited chattering.]
Mary! Now where have you been? You missed the show tonight, huh? Yeah, I was a little tied up.
You know what? Hey, would you guys mind if we borrowed a guitar? Be okay? Steal his act.
Ought to do something for these girls.
Mary missed the show.
BROOKS: She's made us rich.
Oh, we gotta sing something for Lady Luck here.
BROOKS: That's right.
DUNN: Delinda Deline.
You, too, Nessa.
[Laughs.]
Get your harp outta your pocket, cowboy.
[Singing.]
What she wants is a man to be faithful True heart, somebody willing and able To stay by her side through thick and thin A tender touch every now and then [Brooks harmonising.]
She's not hung up on fairytales Or some dream at the bottom of a wishing well [Whispers.]
I wanna take you somewhere.
- Now? - Not gonna ask you again.
DUNN: [Singing.]
What she wants most are the little things That's what she gets That's what she gets That's what she gets for lovin' me Sometimes I lay awake at night [Slow country song.]
DANNY: So how come I never heard of this place? SAM: You gotta know someone.
I like it.
It's the best place to look at the stars.
Reminds me of where I grew up.
Which is? A girl's gotta have some secrets.
Phoenix.
- Phoenix? - Or Tucson.
Or I don't know.
Seems like a lot of really smokin' chicks come from either Phoenix or Tucson.
I unpacked my bags.
Yep.
I saw it.
[Slow country song continues.]
