(hostage pants)

(hostage pants)

You know why you're here?

It wasn't supposed to go

down like that, man. I swear.

You build the b*mb. You

don't get to plead ignorance.

Listen, man! I'm sorry!

No one was supposed to get hurt.

All right. That makes

everything okay then, doesn't it?

Please. I'll tell you

anything you want to know.

Just don't hurt me.

You're damn right you will.

Who triggered the b*mb?

I can't tell you that.

If I give you his name, I'm a dead man.

(suspenseful music continues)

You think you have a choice?

You think you have a choice?

Tania is dead because of you! (Spits)

Sorry.

I'm sorry.

His name is Edson.

Edson flipped the switch.

He k*lled Tania.

Where I can find this Edson?

I don't know, man. I swear!

Well, well.

I guess I have to find him

by myself, but don't worry.

I'll make sure you will

never hurt anyone again.

(aggressive synth music)

(aggressive synth music continues)

(dark synth music)

Hey!

It's Alex, the Frenchie.

What brings you around here?

What can I do for you, Alex?

I need your help to find a guy.

His name is Edson.

You know maybe something about him?

Edson. Why you looking for Edson?

He k*lled a woman I loved.

Oh, man. I'm sorry.

I didn't know you were in trouble.

I will make him pay for what he did.

Wait a minute.

You know, Edson,

he's connected to a lot

of organized crime people

and he's a trained k*ller.

You better be ready for

him. Do you understand?

- I have to try.

- Listen.

I run this gym, I train

Mike now, and my kids,

but I still know a few guys,

and they might help us with this situation

with you and Edson.

Okay, so, you might help me, right?

Sure, I can help you. Sure.

But let me ask you one thing.

You still got that left hook on that arm?

The knockout left hook?

You want to see, old

fart? Huh? (Chuckles)

What is this?

A fighter in a suit?

Why don't you try me? Huh?

Yeah, why don't you try me? Huh?

Come on, try me!

- Hey, Mike.

Mike. Mike, Mike, Mike.

- Come on!

Come on, Mike! Mike, come on!

A real dog, huh?

[Mike] p*ssy in a suit.

Got a fight coming up, Mike.

Come on, get back to work.

Come on. Let's go.

I call on you, okay?

(speaks foreign language) Alex.

You promise you will help me, right?

I'll help you, Alex.

Come on, let's go. Come on, come on.

Faster, let's go. Come

on, faster with that.

Come on. Come on, Mike.

Come on, Mike. That a boy.

That a boy. Show me

that left hook, come on.

That it. That's it, double up on that.

(gentle piano music)

Thank you.

I could send you love letters

Close to you, it was all better

You're dead!

(ominous music)

[Tania] Breakfast, my love.

Hey, good morning.

Hi.

(gentle music)

For you.

Tania.

We can't keep doing this.

(Tania sighs)

I know, Alex.

But I can't stop my feelings.

And this connection between us is,

is too strong.

I'm supposed to protect you,

not fall in love with you.

It's put everything at risk.

(Tania chuckles)

But I never asked for this,

and I never wanted to

fall in love with you.

And you know that the feelings

doesn't always follow the rules, my love.

We have to be rational, Tania.

My duty is to protect you.

I'm afraid I can't be

focused on my mission.

I understand the risks, Alex.

But

living a life without you is just,

I just can't.

I can't lose you, Tania.

I will do anything to protect you.

(chuckles) Yeah.

Then do what it takes,

my love, to protect me.

Do everything.

But I cannot lose you.

(Tania chuckles)

(Tania chuckles)

I love you.

(warm music)

(Tania chuckles)

(Alex sighs)

(door squeaks)

(door closes)

(footsteps approach)

Alex, my friend. It's been too long.

What do you want, Lewis?

I need you to do one more job for me.

I'm not the one you think I am

What?

You know I'm done with this life.

I know, but this is different.

It's an old friend of

mine. General Kasongo.

He's recently become the

president of his nation

and his daughter is in Europe.

He's received threats and

he wants her protected.

Why he can't just hire a bodyguard?

Because, my friend, you're the best.

That's why they call you the Shepherd.

And he specifically requested you.

What's the catch?

No catch.

Just protect the girl, keep her safe,

and bring her home to her father.

(Alex sighs)

[Alex] I have his name.

I have to find him.

Don't make this personal.

Sometimes you win and sometimes you lose.

That's the risk we all

take to do this job.

It wasn't your fault.

(Lewis sighs)

This is not your contract.

You're a good man, Alex.

Let it go.

Let it go?

"Let it go."

He k*lled my girlfriend.

Of course it's personal!

(Lewis sighs)

Look, I know you got a hard head,

and you don't want to

hear what I have to say.

But if you help me with this mission,

I'll help you get your guy.

Deal?

All right.

I will do it.

But this is really my last job.

Of course it is.

You leave tomorrow.

If you can fix my broken heart

(suspenseful synth music)

Did you bring me what I asked for?

It's all there.

Accounts, names, offshore

account numbers. Everything.

Good.

And now you have a decision to make.

[Jacques] A, a decision?

I don't understand.

It's you, or your family.

Come on.

I've done everything you asked me.

I, I, I did the part of the deal.

Do you think your boss

will tolerate being let down?

My, my boss doesn't have to know.

Come on, man. You know him.

He's, he's a guy and

I don't need your justification.

My job is to k*ll people like you.

No, no, no, no. No, I

won't make any trouble.

No, I swear. No, please.

But you already have, my friend.

And you know what that means?

No, no, no, no.

No, no, no!

(g*n firing)

It's something that

will please my clients

(dark music)

(ominous music)

You're dead!

(gentle music)

(Tania chuckles)

(ominous music)

You're dead.

You're dead.

Dead. Dead.

(Alex pants)

(dark music)

(Alex pants)

(water splashes)

(muffled door closes)

(muffled door closes)

(suspenseful synth music)

You almost got shot, June.

Well, lock your door properly.

Someone could break in.

What are you doing here?

Yeah. Nice to see you, too.

Alex, look. I heard that you

were leaving town for Europe.

Just wanted to say goodbye.

Yeah?

Yeah.

You want to see goodbye

to my money, right?

Alex.

Alex.

Alex.

Always suspicious.

But no.

I came to give you some advice.

Go ahead.

Do not mess things up.

Why would I?

Well, I know you're going

to want to take revenge.

I know you.

It's not your problem.

Because you know that if

you don't deal with this,

it's gonna haunt you for

the rest of your life.

And who knows how many other people

will be involved in this vendetta.

It's not your f*cking business.

Get the f*ck outta here.

Okay, I know that you still blame me,

but Tania meant a lot

to me too, all right?

Okay, look.

It's been difficult with

Karen and she kicked me out.

So, I thought maybe I could

stay here, and uh, you know,

take care of your place while you're gone?

(Alex chuckles)

This is it. I knew it would happen.

Okay, Alex, please.

It would be just a couple of nights.

I'd be gone before you're back. I promise.

It was nice to see you, June.

Now,

get you a motel, and you have to go.

All right.

Thanks anyway.

And, uh,

this as*h*le is definitely not

someone to be taken lightly.

I'll be careful.

Don't call me back.

[June] All right!

Bye, Alex.

(Alex sighs)

(door slams)

(gentle music)

(suspenseful synth music)

(brakes squeak)

Told you I would bring her back.

You owe me a drink.

(car door closes)

[Alex] I hope you

took great care of her.

Maybe a bump or two and a

few scratches here and there,

but other than that, she

is in mint condition.

Oh, the uh, the engine?

Been making some weird noises.

Might wanna take a look at that.

I'm gonna k*ll you.

Huh?

(Alex laughs) I missed you, man.

What the f*ck are you

doing in this sh*t h*le?

Work or pleasure?

I have to do this last job,

to protect the daughter

of an African General.

Wow. You have changed since

the days we worked together.

What are you, some kind

of f*cking bodyguard now?

No, it's for Lewis.

Hold up.

So you're gonna protect some

kid with more money than you?

He promised me to help me

to find the k*ller of Tania.

You do realize that

by k*lling the k*ller,

that ain't gonna decrease

the number of K*llers in the world.

I'll have to k*ll two of them, then.

I believe you will.

Anyhow, what say you

and me go get a drink,

before this kid arrives?

Okay, thanks, but no,

I have to stay sober.

I cannot screw up this job.

Well, okay then.

You be careful now.

These rich kids, they can be

more trouble than you think.

Adios, amigo.

I'm off to find me some

liquor and then a lady.

(Alex sighs)

I hate when he's right.

(car door opens)

(suspenseful synth music)

(car door opens)

(car door slams)

Well, well. Look who we have here.

Who are you? (Groans and pants)

What do you want?

You know what I want.

You helped that scum Kasongo get elected.

And now you're gonna pay for it.

What?

I didn't do anything wrong.

I was just doing my job.

Your job? You mean being a

puppet for the corrupt regime?

Don't bullshit me, Jim. I know everything.

Okay, fine. Fine.

What do you want from me?

I want to know where

Kasongo's daughter is hiding.

I need to eliminate her, too.

No.

I don't know where she is.

I swear.

Don't f*cking lie to me, Jim!

You're her damn chauffeur.

You know where she goes, who she sees.

(Jim pants)

I'm telling the truth!

I don't know where she is!

I don't know anything!

Last chance, Jim. Don't

make me do this the hard way.

Okay.

Okay, okay.

Stop, stop. (Pants)

I'll tell you everything. (Pants)

But first, you have to

promise me something.

What?

Don't hurt her.

She's innocent.

She doesn't deserve this.

Okay, I promise. But you

better not be lying to me.

No.

She's under protection.

It's that guy.

Lapierre.

Alex Lapierre.

He's supposed to take her to the UK,

and then she's gonna be

taken care of by MI6.

It's all I know!

Thanks, Jim. You've been very helpful.

Can I ask you something?

What?

Why do you do this?

I mean, k*lling people. What's the point?

What's the point?

What's the f*cking point?

You're kidding me, right?

- No, I'm serious!

Tell me!

You're a smart guy, Jim.

You know this life is about power.

Power to decide your own destiny.

Power to make others do what you want.

Power to decide who lives and who dies.

(Jim chuckles)

You're sick.

(Jim pants)

Maybe.

(g*n firing)

(car door opens)

(distant siren wails)

(traffic hums)

(car door opens)

(car door closes)

(car door opens)

(car door closes)

So, it's you, the Shepherd?

[Alex] My name is Alex.

Okay. Whatever.

(engine revs)

(Lisa sighs)

Whoa, take it easy! It's real leather.

Aww!

I almost smash your junk into pieces.

Look, kid. I'm here

to protect you, okay?

You follow my rules.

And what are your rules?

I always have a plan. No

discussion, no seduction.

Ew!

"No seduction"?

You could be my dad. It's, it's so gross!

(Lisa sighs)

It's gonna be a long drive.

(car door slams)

(car starts)

(engine revs)

(keyboard clacks)

Matt Daniels.

I'm coming to get you.

(dark synth music)

Are you sure your car won't fall apart

before we get there?

Everything ends up

dangling, when you get old.

You'll see.

Hm.

Funny.

(Lisa sighs)

Hi, guys! It's Lisa.

I'm doing a live stream just to

tell you how it's going live.

You'll never guess what.

Someone is trying to k*ll me.

What are you doing, son of a b*tch?

You don't understand the

gravity of the situation.

If you get spot, you dead!

You threw my phone away.

Turn around and go back for it!

No.

You have to do without it.

You're such a prick.

[Alex] I don't give a sh*t.

And now I guess I have to

talk to you the whole way

to pass the time?

[Alex] You don't have to.

Thanks, Alex.

Alex, I have to go to the bathroom.

Can we have a break?

You have to go to the bathroom now?

Yeah! You want me to pee in your car?

Fine.

We'll have a pee break, but hurry up!

Thank you.

(soft music)

[Reporter] Police reports are coming in

of a man found m*rder*d today.

The victim has been

identified as James Debart,

a driver for the Kasongo family,

who is also suspected of being

an undercover foreign agent.

His m*rder comes only 24 hours

after the k*lling of Jacques Fontana,

the accountant of businessman,

Bert Vander Brecht,

who owns diamond and cobalt

mines in the Makhanda region.

The circumstances surrounding

these deaths are still unclear

and authorities are currently

conducting a thorough

investigation to determine

who was responsible.

These events take place

against the backdrop

of General Kasongo's

controversial election,

which has sparked tensions

and protests in Makhanda.

The killings raise serious concerns

about the safety of those

already involved in the election,

as well as potential

witnesses and informants.

sh*t.

[Reporter] It is crucial that

the authorities take steps

What have you gotten

yourself into this time, Alex?

[Reporter] We will continue to monitor

the situation closely

Damn.

[Reporter] And keep you

informed of any significant

developments as they happen.

(soft music)

(passing cars whoosh)

Do you even know where we are?

You never seen a map before?

(phone rings)

(phone rings)

Hello.

- Hey.

It's Matt. How are you doing?

Yeah, I'm good.

Now, I got a question to ask you,

and I'm pretty sure I

already know the answer,

but I'm gonna ask it anyway.

That kid you're protecting.

She got any relation to General Kasongo?

Why are you asking me this?

Well, let's just say two

guys connected to Kasongo,

they're now resting in the morgue.

She's his daughter.

(Matt inhales deeply)

sh*t.

That's what I thought.

Well, anyway, I'm sure you will be fine.

You are a professional, after all.

I'll make sure nothing happens to her.

Hey! Who are you talking to?

Things getting very serious,

but you should be okay.

I "should be okay"?

All right. Then I...

That should be fine.

Shouldn't worry.

I guess.

But you remember now.

If you need me, I'll be there.

I will handle it.

Okay. You take it easy, man.

Aw, f*ck. (Sighs)

(Matt sighs)

(passing cars whoosh)

(car doors slam)

You're not my chauffeur, okay?

As you wish.

When all of this is over, I

will buy you a proper phone.

My phone is enough.

Come on. It's as old as your car.

(Alex sighs)

No GPS. No internet.

I can't be tracked.

Oh!

Smart.

Do you have a girlfriend?

What do you care?

I'm just asking, grumpy old fart!

You threw my phone away, remember?

We have nothing to do but talk.

I can't even listen to my music, so

I can play music.

(upbeat rock music)

Stronger than life

(Lisa snickers)

What is this old sh*t?

Actually, everything's

old with you, right?

(Lisa chuckles)

I have a girlfriend.

She's dead.

And her name is Tania.

I'm, I'm sorry.

(car starts)

Actually, it's not that bad.

It takes what it takes

but it's not what it seems

I'm bleeding inside but

I'll follow my dreams

And dying is easy

And loving is hard when

your heart and your soul

It's a little creepy here, isn't it?

Don't worry. Just for the night.

[Lisa] At least I can take a bath.

Go ahead. I sleep on the couch.

(Lisa chuckles)

No. (Chuckles)

No. No way you're sleeping on the couch.

Look.

I'm tired.

Look, Mr. Hero.

I'm not used to sharing

my room with strangers.

So, you can go ahead and sleep

in your state of the art car.

Hm?

And I have to keep an eye on you.

No. No way you're sleeping on the couch.

Well,

in that case, I sleep on the bed,

and you sleep on the couch.

Fine!

But if you ever snore, I'll

kick you out of the room.

(scoffs) I would love to see this.

(distant engine hums)

(keys clink)

(Matt groans)

Careful, Mr. Daniels.

sh*t.

I must be getting old.

(g*n thuds)

(Lisa sighs)

(bed creaks)

Alex, are you sleeping?

No.

[Lisa] Can I ask you something?

Yeah.

Why people are chasing me?

I mean, who's behind this?

Honestly?

I don't care. It's not my problem.

My job is to protect you.

How can you be so indifferent?

It's my life at stake.

Damn it.

Oh, I'm just being realistic.

And the reality is that

if we spend our time

wondering why and who,

we might get k*lled

before we get the answer.

What can we do, then?

We'll sleep and we hit

the road again tomorrow.

You're really sure of what

you're doing, aren't you?

I've seen a lot of things in my life.

I never underestimate my enemies.

But don't worry, you're in good hands.

Thanks, Alex.

I'm glad you're here.

This is my job.

Go to sleep now.

I'm watching over you.

But remember,

I always have a plan.

Goodnight.

Goodnight.

All I need is you right here

In a cozy little home

I don't need a tango dance floor

Or a rock band playing loud

All I need is the

sound of your heartbeat

And you love to be around

So let's stay here together

And just dance in love

'Cause baby, you're my everything

My heart and my soul

(metal clangs)

(doorbell rings)

(warm music)

(chuckles) Come in.

Relax, Tania. Tonight,

you can enjoy the dinner.

Yeah, um,

it's hard to believe that I'm here,

safe, and that you're protecting me.

You're doing great.

I won't let anything

happen to you. I promise.

Is it a part of the protocol,

or should I worry more about

what's going to happen to me tonight that

getting k*lled around the corner?

Well, it's against

protocol. I shouldn't do that.

And if you feel uncomfortable,

we can just, uh

Don't worry, Alex.

In fact, I, I hoped it could be possible,

having this dinner with you.

Hm. I know it's unprofessional.

Flirting with my client.

My boss won't like that.

So, is it officially a date?

I have to protect you first.

What are you afraid of, Alex?

My job.

It's unusual.

It's more often bad than good.

It can be dangerous.

That's why I can't afford

sentimental attachment.

Mm.

You've got good taste in wine.

(chuckles) I'm French.

Food, cheese and wine.

And sex?

Sorry. I,

I shouldn't have said that. (Chuckles)

Oh, you're so beautiful when you blush.

Thank you.

(Tania sighs)

When it's all over, I

want to go in a country

with a lot of sun and having a good time.

Yeah.

It's something you can't afford, for now.

Maybe one day.

Maybe.

Tonight, I should get the list

of people who are ready to testify.

You should be soon at the beach.

Thank you, Alex.

But Lewis sent me this new rookie.

His name is Carl.

He's nothing but bullshit.

I know.

A new generation.

I was like that, when I was young.

I'm sure you will teach him right.

Let's raise our glasses to you.

To me?

(glasses clink)

To us.

If anything happened to

you, I couldn't bear it.

I'd be restless.

We can live day by day.

In this job, it's more

often bad than good.

But I choose this life.

(sniffs) Oh!

Forgot the dinner.

[Tania] Don't be afraid.

We can still order pizza.

(Tania chuckles)

(suspenseful music)

You've got to prove yourself.

Lewis doesn't like job done badly.

Well, things are looking

really, really good.

No tracks. Real pros.

That's why I wanted the job.

Look, the snitch we are going to meet

has to be scared off, nothing more.

Take the envelope. "Thank you, goodnight."

No problem. A b*llet in

the leg and nothing more.

Discretion.

One misstep can endanger

my client even more.

Who's your client, by the way?

I can help you protecting

her, if you want.

Why do you think it's "her"?

You smell, man. You stink.

Ladies perfume.

Is she pretty?

Is she pretty?

It's not your problem.

Stop asking so many questions.

Fair enough! Fair enough.

You need to relax, once

in a while. (Chuckles)

After all, you've been on the

circuit for a long time, huh?

Hm?

Don't you think you should leave the place

to the new generation, sometimes?

Young trainees aren't

going to teach my job.

Maybe the young trainee has class.

It's not a fashion show, anyway.

Where is your sense of humor?

Hm? Where is your sense of humor?

You think I'm not a cool guy? Okay.

I give you a chance.

I flip the coin.

If you win, show me what you

got with your new generation.

And if I win, you stay in the car.

Deal?

- Okay, deal.

Heads.

(coin clinks)

Yes! (Laughs)

I had a good feeling on this.

I'm off, man.

You've got 10 minutes.

And tell him I sent you.

(suspenseful music continues)

(footsteps clack)

Where is Lapierre?

Do you have something for me?

I want to talk to Lapierre.

Alex sent me. He can't be here.

Come on. Give me the envelope.

I have nothing to give you.

Tell Lapierre that if he

wants the information,

he can come and get it by himself.

(tuts) Don't make things complicated.

Just hand over the envelope and go home.

f*ck you, as*h*le! I

have nothing to give you.

I'm out of here!

(g*n firing)

(person groans)

(footsteps clack)

Hey.

What are you doing?

- There was no envelope.

And this guy came to k*ll

me, and that includes you.

Hide your f*cking g*n.

Yeah, well, when a guy

makes a sudden move, I sh**t.

It was me or him.

[Alex] Move.

(suspenseful music continues)

(suspenseful music continues)

(suspenseful music continues)

Hey, Carl.

Oh.

Oh, Lapierre. What are you doing here?

You having fun?

What're you talking about?

[Alex] You took the

envelope. Don't lie to me.

You have no idea what

you've got yourself into,

'cause they now know who sold them,

and they'll find the girl

and they'll k*ll her,

and they'll cut your

throat in the process!

What do you mean, "They"?

If you think I'm

gonna tell you anything,

you're f*cking dreaming!

I knew you weren't good for the job.

(fist thuds)

(Carl groans)

You want to feel the death?

You want to feel the death?

[Carl] No, no! (Groans)

(neck cracks)

(dark music)

So, Matt.

You still won't tell me

where Lapierre's heading to?

I'm not gonna tell you a thing.

But he is mad, yes.

Oh, I think you'll have

something to tell me, my friend.

And you will tell me,

before I start cutting your

fingers off, one by one.

Still got nothin' to say, you sombitch.

Don't play games with me, Matt.

(hand slaps)

You're a trained k*ller.

You know how this works.

I'm retired.

I got no skin in this game.

That may be so, but

you're a valuable asset.

Now, you're gonna tell

me what Alex Lapierre is,

or I'll make sure you

don't see end of the day.

Knock yourself out.

I ain't gonna tell you sh*t.

We'll see how long you can hold out for.

Before I cut you up.

(phone rings)

Oh, sh*t. That stupid phone.

Bingo.

(Matt groans)

Lucky I didn't make you too ugly.

Thank you, Matt.

I don't need you anymore.

Your phone gave it away.

(fist thuds)

(Matt groans)

(fist thuds)

(fist thuds)

(Matt spits)

(blood drips)

(birds chirp)

(tense synth music)

Relax.

Enjoy the evening.

I should not be here

with you tonight, here.

Come on. Just let it go.

You're not happy with me tonight?

I am, of course.

- You are? Really?

- Yeah! (Chuckles)

Come on here.

(Tania chuckles)

Come on.

Relax. Come on!

Do you want something

to eat before going home?

Hmm.

Okay. Why not?

Okay.

(suspenseful music)

Matt?

Your friend can't talk to you right now,

but I wanted to say hello.

Who are you?

The Grim Reaper.

I heard you were looking for me.

Good thing is, I'm looking for you, too.

There is this girl, though.

f*ck you!

You bring me the girl, you

can have your friend back.

You k*lled Tania.

Who?

I've k*lled many people.

It's never personal. It's just a job.

If I k*lled Tania, it was

her time. C'est la vie.

I'm gonna make you pay.

Yeah, yeah. (Chuckles) Do what you want.

My offer still stands.

(phone clacks)

Who was it?

The one you have to escape.

Okay?

So, you're gonna throw your

phone out the window now,

so they can't track us?

No. This phone is safe.

Nobody can track us.

This guy is a pro.

But we'll find a way.

(patrons chattering)

[Rachel] Here you go.

- Hey.

- Hi, guys.

Hi. Excuse me, where's

the toilet please?

Oh, it's just over there.

- Thank you.

- All right.

Can I get you any drinks or anything?

Yes, please. Coffee and lemonade.

That's a nice suit.

Is that Versace or Hugo Buss or something?

No, it's Franky's.

(patrons snicker)

[Rachel] Not heard of it.

One of those cheap Chinese brands.

Shut the f*ck up, Danny.

At least he's got class.

Stronger than life

I will find a world

Oi!

Your girlfriend's hot.

And she's got a set of her lungs on her.

Will you shut the f*ck up, Danny?

Excuse me?

You're talking about me?

Hey, cutie.

Wanna try a real man?

I'll buy you a drink.

(hand slaps)

f*ck you!

Who the f*ck do you

think you are, b*tch?

(fist thuds)

Hey!

What the f*ck?

(Danny groans)

I dare because I'm a Kasongo.

Shut the f*ck up!

(Lisa groans)

I'm gonna get f*cking fired!

(birds chirp)

You needed to say your name?

Who cares?

You broke his a*s, anyway.

Good job, bodyguard.

(car door slams)

(car door slams)

(birds chirp)

Of course.

A 1982 car.

'99.

I'm surprised it last

that long, actually.

He had some charm, back then.

Yeah! I'm sure it was a real thing.

But now we have to walk, hm?

Poor little princess.

A real knight know

how to spare his horses.

We should pick up the

pace. It's not safe here.

(scoffs) You protect me. It's your job.

You're not gonna be scared

of some highway men, are you?

Do you really think I'm

scared of those amateurs?

No!

I guess not.

Idiot.

I'm looking for a man in a black suit,

accompanied by a young lady.

Who the f*ck you are? Her f*cking pimp?

Don't start again, you idiot.

I take it that's a yes?

(suspenseful music)

They left a few minutes ago.

Are there anymore m*therf*ckers

coming here to piss me off today?

Thank you for your corporation.

(g*n fires)

(Rachel yelps)

sh*t.

(Rachel pants)

(tense music)

Run!

(tense music continues)

(tense music continues)

(tense music continues)

Are we going to be

forgiven for all our sins?

Shut up.

I can't take this

Drop your weapon.

Ah.

(suspenseful music)

(phone rings)

(phone rings)

Yeah, we've got 'em.

Enough playing. Just follow nicely.

(Alex sighs)

Yeah, I understand.

You got this?

Move.

You try anything and I'll

sh**t her in the head.

(suspenseful synth music)

(ominous music)

(car door opens)

(car door slams)

(Matt groans)

(trunk door slams)

Ms. Kasongo.

Nice to meet you, finally.

I hope you understand there is

nothing personal about this.

Now you have the girl, let Matt go.

I gave him my word.

Wait.

You're trading me with him?

You son of a b*tch.

Sorry, girl.

Just remember my rules.

Get moving.

We both have what we wanted,

but you have to pay for k*lling Tania.

Why not? Could do with a workout.

(tense music)

(foot thuds)

(Edson groans)

I was expecting more from you.

(g*n fires)

You almost shot me!

(mercenary coughs)

Can you believe that sh*t?

I save her life and she

calls me an as*h*le.

Next.

(g*n fires)

Next time, you can save your own a*s.

And Alex, quit f*cking

Come on, you f*cking pussies!

I'll take you both!

(g*ns fire rapidly)

[Alex] Are you okay?

(hand slaps)

(Alex groans)

Oh, sh*t.

Yes. I think so.

[Matt] So I guess this is the end?

Maybe.

Then let's go get a drink.

(warm synth music)

(footsteps thudding)

The general's daughter is safe.

You did a great job, Alex.

It was my job.

Your job?

You risked your life for her.

You stopped Tania's k*ller.

You did more than your job, my friend.

Still gonna retire?

Yeah.

I need to change my life.

Maybe I can help you with that.

You've been one of my best men

and I know some people who

can help you disappear.

I appreciate that, but

I can do it on my own.

Of course.

You're an independent man.

So, what're you gonna do?

Blow your money in Vegas?

Go fishing?

(Alex sighs)

We'll see.

Day by day.

Good luck with your new life, Alex.

You deserve it.

Thanks, Lewis.

Goodbye, and I'm gonna miss you.
