[music fades]

[phone ringing]

[phone continues ringing]

Hello?

Is this how you say hello?

[in Pidgin] Who is this, please?

Ouch.

I've been told that my
voice gives me away.

[in Pidgin] Well...

did you pay them to tell you so?

[Femi] So now you know I
can pay for such, right?

I thought you said
you don't know me.

[Shalewa, in Pidgin] How would I
remember, after just one night?

That's why I'm asking for
a date this time around,

not just one dance.

No.

Come on.

I'm not going to eat you up...

[Shalewa groans]

till I'm hungry.

[in Pidgin] If your appetite
is always like the last time,

how will I survive?

So what do you say
to a romantic date?

I don't know.

I don't know.

[Femi] Tell me your
name and say yes.

Shalewa.

Shalewa.

Please say yes.

[sighs]

Okay.

[double g*nshots]

What happened?

[man clears throat]

Where you in a fight?

[Inem sniffs]

- [sighs]
- Amanda, you didn't report a fight.

[Detective Janice] Is this some
sort of Welcome Back ritual?

[scoffs] Bloody animals.

[Detective Janice] Amanda,
you need to say something.

Are you threatened?

Say something so I
can do something!

In there is a memory card
that contains Scar's logbook.

This case is

way more complicated
than we thought.

You're not really
saying anything.

What happened in there?

I am going to

pull the plug on
this whole operation.

I cannot afford to have
my best agent exposed.

- Get me headquarters...
- No!

You will do no such thing.

We have to get those pigs.

Do you have an idea

of what I've been through

in just two nights?

And, yet, my sister

was in that place all her life.

[sobs]

Those animals used my sister.

They abused her,

molested her,

and then they broke her

and abandoned her
to rot in jail.

And you sit here and tell me

to call off my operation.

You will get those men.

We will bring them to justice.

Whoever the mastermind
of all of this is

will have to go in for it.

So, you take this, trace those locations,
and get me something to work with!

[breathing heavily]

Amanda.

[groans] Madam...

[in Pidgin] when a
trailer's brakes fail

no one stands in its way.

Have you been able
to speak to Jackie?

There's a pattern that...

um, we've been missing.

We were going to pick up Jackie,

but there was no trace that she
even made it to Epe, nothing.

Agent Kay.

Yes, so, we did a
triangulation of data

on all the girls
linked to Shanty Town.

But, at one point or the other,

they've all dropped
off the radar.

They just disappear? I
don't understand this.

Exactly, but that's what
I'm trying to figure out.

I'll make some calls and
I'll see what I can get.

Okay.

[ominous music playing]

[boy, in Pidgin] My
boss is calling you.

[in Pidgin] Scar,
wants to see you.

Stay in the VIP section.

[in Pidgin] Ene,
what's going on?

What's going on?

[Colorado] Stay in
the VIP section.

Stop being stubborn.
Stay in the VIP.

Please, don't touch me.

[in Pidgin] If I slap you, you'll
change complexion. I said get in.

I'll hit you. Move.

[in Hausa] No problem.

[engine starts]

[menacing music playing]

[Inem grunts]

[Scar, in Pidgin] Join
the others in the queue.

Somebody has let a
rat into my hood.

[in Pidgin] What is the
meaning of all this?

Huh?

[Scar, in Pidgin] An old man
who doesn't respect himself

will have children
playing with his ba*ls

on the street.

Each of you have
been around here.

Now my money is missing.

I'm tired of all this…

- What is…
- [g*nsh*t]

[in Pidgin] Very good.

[Colorado] Focus.

Do you think we
are here to play?

[Scar, in Pidgin] It seems you do
not understand what I'm saying.

In this hood,

Scar is the god.

Whoever Scar permits to breathe

is the only one who can breathe.

[breathing heavily]

You are the first person
I want to ask this.

Because it was you and Inem,

who were here the longest,

inside my cabin.

Who took my money?

[in Pidgin] Have you thoroughly
searched everybody here?

Have you searched their bags?

If you had, your money
might still be here.

Don't accuse me wrongly, Scar.

[in Pidgin] What does that mean?

[in Pidgin] Hasn't
Jagun grown wings?

[Jagun, in Pidgin]
What did I do?

Why is she trying to implicate
me in front of the boss?

[Jagun] Answer me.

What did I do? Speak up.

[in Pidgin] When I went to get
clothes for Inem from Colorado.

[in Pidgin] What then happened?

[in Pidgin] Why were you spraying money
like it belonged to your father...

[Jagun grunts]

- [Colorado] My friend, stop that.
- Let me deal with her.

Behave yourself.

Boss, I hope you don't
believe what she said?

Scar,

it is me, Jagun.

It is me, boss. Boss, you're
not thinking about it, right?

Don't let a mere woman come
between us after all these years.

I am loyal to you, boss.

We have been together for
a while. It is me Jagun.

I am loyal, boss.

That's my bag.

Search it. There's
nothing there.

This woman just wants
to implicate me.

There's nothing there,
that's the denim I bought.

That's my instrument.

There's nothing. Can you see?

Boss, what is that?

[menacing music playing]

Dollars?

- Scar. Scar!
- Get down!

- I can't steal from you.
- Get down.

Boss, you know me.

Scar, it's me, Jagun.

- I didn't put it there, it's a set-up.
- Jagun.

- It's a set up. Scar, I didn't do it.
- Jagun.

Scar, think about
it. It's Jagun.

I can't take your
money. It's dollars.

I've not used dollars
before, it belongs to you.

Boss take your money,
I've not seen a dollar.

- [g*nsh*t]
- [screaming]

- [woman] Jagun! Ah! Oh, my God.
- Hey, compose yourself.

I'm upset.

We don't cry here.

[Scar] Colorado.

[in Pidgin] Make
way for the man.

Put him in the freezer.

The rest of you, get out.

[Scar, in Pidgin] Not you.

Put him in the freezer,
we will cut him up later.

[Scar, in Pidgin] I'm upset

[in Pidgin] Should I give you a hot
drink or do you want cold water?

Drink?

With you?

[in Pidgin] You were
going to k*ll me.

[in Pidgin] But you didn't die.

If Scar wants to k*ll
you, you'll be dead.

So, what do you want?

Chief DaCosta wants
to see you again.

No. Scar?

No.

Scar, please, I
don't want to go.

Scar... [whimpering]

- I don't want to go.
- You'll be fine.

I don't want to
go, Scar, please.

- I don't want to go, please.
- Ssh.

I don't want to go,
please, I don't want to go.

- [sobbing]
- Ssh. Ssh.

Scar.

[in Pidgin] You know that
since the day I saved you.

You and your mother,

by the water side.

- Scar.
- Comrade.

[Scar, in Pidgin] I've
always looked out for you.

[Inem sobbing]

[in Pidgin] I've protected
you with my life.

- [whimpering]
- Ssh.

[in Pidgin] Listen to me.

Nothing will happen to you.

Do you understand me?

Nothing will happen to you.

[upbeat music playing]

Shall we?

Beautiful, huh?

- Yeah.
- I love this place.

Very nice.

[in Pidgin] The
beach and everything

Everywhere looks good.

I'm telling you.

I was in a meeting months back, trying
to convince the owners of this place,

to move the cabanas
close to the ocean.

- Oh.
- But guess what?

[in Pidgin] What?

They refused.

Eh? Why?

- Why they refused?
- No.

[in Pidgin] Why did you
ask them to move it?

Because, when you're
closer to the ocean,

the view becomes the
most beautiful sight

you've ever laid your eyes on.

What's wrong?

Was the kiss that bad?

[in Pidgin] Not that, at all.

It's just that…

Whenever something
good happens to me

I always feel like
I don't deserve it.

Like…

What's the word…

I feel dirty.

You can tell I'm not
from a wealthy family.

But, I…

- You know what?
- Shalewa.

[in Pidgin] Let's stop talking
about this, I'll get emotional.

Let's change the topic.

If you insist.

By the way, seeing
you mix c*ck

is a vision to behold.

You're gifted, Shalewa.

- You are teasing me.
- [Femi chuckling]

[laughing]

No, Shalewa.

I grew up in a foreign
type of circumstance.

- Eh?
- I'm serious, yeah.

[in Pidgin] What circumstances?

You are a Fernandez.

Living under the shadow
of Chief Fernandez.

Of course everyone expected
me to behave like him.

[in Pidgin] We can
say he has failed.

He failed at that, because

you are nothing like him.

I swear, you are nothing
like your father.

You sound like you've met him.

[in Pidgin] I've met you.

By the way, my father has a
fundraiser coming up very soon,

and I would love
you to accompany me.

Okay.

[in Pidgin] No problem. I'd
like to go anywhere with you.

- Let's go and grab some seats.
- [in Pidgin] All right then.

[upbeat music playing]

[woman] Mama, I hail.

- [in Pidgin] How are you guys?
- We are good, good afternoon.

[indistinct chatter]

- [in Pidgin] Mama, we are leaving.
- [in Pidgin] Okay, safe journey.

Be careful.

Hello, Enewan.

[Ene, in Ibibio] Why
are you calling me?

What is it?

[in Pidgin] Enewan, there's something
I want to talk to you about.

[in Ibibio] About what?

[in Pidgin] There's
a rumour I heard.

There's a rumour I heard
that isn't making sense.

I want to confirm it from you.

[in Ibibio] You've not settled in
and you are already hearing rumours.

So you are here to gossip,
cheers for yourself.

[in Pidgin] What
is wrong with you?

See,

[in Pidgin] I heard that…

anybody,

[in Ibibio] in fact, I heard that when
people get their freedom from Shanty Town…

They said they
suddenly disappear.

And when you call them,
there's no response.

No one knows their whereabouts.

You know, so,

[in Ibibio] I want to ask if
you have any idea about those

who got freed from Shanty Town?

[Ene, in Ibibio] I don't know.

Are you dumb? Your
ears don't work?

I said I don't know.

[in Pidgin] What exactly
is wrong with you?

What is wrong with my question?

Huh?

Please, calm down.

Do you have an idea or not?

[Ene, in Ibibio] Is
that why you called me?

Please.

[sighs] Enewan, you know that…

as the madam here,

you're supposed to know.

So, tell me.

- You know how you…
- [line disconnects]

Hello.

Enewan.

Enewan.

[grunts]

Son of a f*cking b*tch.

Okay.

[Urban music playing]

[Chief Fernandez] Now
that is the agreed price.

-Boss, -I understand
your misgivings but,

this is business. Huh?

- [indistinct chatter]
- Mm hm.

[Chief Fernandez laughing]

[Chief Fernandez]
But this is business.

[laughing]

Okay.

All right.

- [in Pidgin] I'll be back.
- [groans]

[in Yoruba] Look
at this girl's a*s.

[shrieks] Big buttocks.

[Scar chuckles]

- [indistinct]
- [chuckles]

[in Yoruba] All hail, Boss.

Shun, sir.

[in Yoruba] Hail, boss.

[groans]

[partly Yoruba] Scar
at your service, boss.

[in Yoruba] You, Aboderin.

At my service?

Yet, you were 10 minutes late?

Hm?

[Chief Fernandez] And you've not even
updated me on the orders I gave to you.

[in Yoruba] Boss,
there's no problem.

We've destroyed it all, I swear.
We've destroyed the books.

- Are you sure?
- [in Yoruba] I swear.

- [in Yoruba] How about the truck?
- The truck has been set ablaze.

The truck is currently
ablaze as we speak.

- Really?
- I swear.

[ominous music playing]

Ah.

[in Yoruba] Boss.

Boss, I swear it's
not what you think.

Boss, I was going to discuss
it with you. You know…

If you take this away from
me, I'll have nothing else.

This is what feeds all of us.

[grunts] Boss.

Boss, don't do this.

- Don't do this.
- Aboderin.

If you make a sound.

If you scream,

these fingers

are gone.

I will cut it off.

[Scar, in Yoruba] I'm your
son, don't treat me like this.

[screams]

[muffled scream]

- [Chief Fernandez] Aboderin.
- [groans]

[Chief Fernandez] I give you

24 hours

to prove to me

that you're not too much of
a liability for me to bear.

- [in Yoruba] Do you understand?
- [in Yoruba] I understand, boss.

[groaning, grunts]

[breathing heavily]

[ominous music playing]

[inhaling deeply]

[sighs]

I can't do this.

[in Pidgin] Shalewa,
you can't do this.

- [toilet flushing]
- Sh...

[groans] Ouch.

- Shalewa?
- Inem.

- [in Pidgin] What are you doing here?
- What are you doing here?

[in Pidgin] I have
a client, you?

[in Pidgin] I also
have a client.

- Who is your client?
- Hm.

[hesitates] I don't
really like him.

So, I don't even
want to say his name.

- [Shalewa] Hm.
- [Inem] Uh huh.

[in Pidgin] Who is your client?

[in Pidgin] I like my client.

Well, you know I can't tell you.

- Why?
- [coughs]

[in Pidgin] We are hookers.

And this is a top secret
business. Have you forgotten?

Of course.

- You don't know anything. [chuckles]
- Okay then. Okay then.

[sighs]

Hm. Inem.

[in Pidgin] I think this guy is my
ticket to get out of Shanty Town.

[sighs]

[in Pidgin] There's
something I want to ask you.

[Shalewa] Hmm.

Those people who
get out of Shanty,

after getting their freedom,
what happens to them?

[in Pidgin] Freedom is freedom.

- [in Pidgin] What are you...
- Shalewa, what I'm asking is that,

people who get their
freedom from Shanty Town,

is there any of them
you are in contact with?

Over the phone or visitation?

Is there any of them that
you are in contact with?

[deep sigh]

[in Pidgin] That's true.

[hesitates] Wha...

You know what?

[in Pidgin] I haven't reached out
to anybody. But, you know Jackie?

[in Pidgin] Our Jackie, right?

You know we need to
keep up with each other.

[Shalewa, in
Pidgin] That's true.

- Life is not easy.
- I swear.

There's a voicenote.

Let's play it and listen.

[Jackie, in Pidgin] You
are no longer my boss.

[Scar, in Pidgin] Family
is forever, don't you know?

[Scar, in Igbo] Your
head will be cut off.

[Scar and Jackie speaking
indistinctly on voicenote]

[Jackie gasping]

[panting, heaving
breathing on voicenote]

[indistinct chatter
on voicenote]

[Jackie screaming]

[Scar, in Pidgin] The only
thing that can break a family...

is death.

- [Inem and Shalewa gasp]
- [drops phone]

[Inem] Jesus.

[Scar, in Igbo] Safe journey.

- [Inem] Jesus. Jesus.
- [Ene] You should have left some.

- [gasps] Enewan. Enewan.
- [Ene] How do I find the eye now?

[in Ibibio] Oh, my God.

- [Scar, in Pidgin] If I hit you.
- [Inem] Enewan!

[Scar, in Pidgin] It
seems like you're crazy.

[Scar] Do I pay you to
ask me stupid questions?

- [Inem] Shalewa.
- [Scar] Eh?

[in Pidgin] Please, please.

I beg you in God's
name. Shalewa, please.

- [sobbing]
- You have to keep this to yourself.

Do you want to die?

- They will k*ll you in Shanty Town.
- See... [whimpering]

[in Pidgin] Keep quiet.

If anybody hears
what we heard here,

we will end up dead
in Shanty Town.

They will k*ll us.

I beg you in God's name.

Please, babe, calm down.

I beg you in God's name.

[Femi] Isn't this restaurant
too expensive for you, Scar?

[in Pidgin] You are right.

Before I left…

Iya Sikira already gave me
amala and gbegiri to eat.

I have stepped it
down with herbs.

So, since you're not
here for the food,

the drinks,

the views.

What business do you have here?

By here,

I mean,

on this table.

[in Yoruba] I just wanted to
say hello to the golden son.

[in Yoruba] Better
than a b*stard son.

Thank you, Scar.

By the way,

you're not looking so good.

Did you catch an
STD or something?

[soft chuckle]

[in Yoruba] Can you see?

My finger was cut.

My finger was cut. Me, Scar.

How is work?

How are your girlfriends?

I will let you know as soon
as it becomes your business.

But till then,

do me a favor.

Get out of this seat.

[in Yoruba] From you?

Eh?

[in Yoruba] You've
been trespassing.

- What?
- When you start sleeping with my girls,

it becomes my business.

[in Pidgin] You can hear me, right?
You are sleeping with my girl.

Do you understand me?

Now you know what Chief will do,

when he finds out that you,

[in Yoruba] the golden son,

is having sex with one
of his girls, Shalewa.

The useless girl that everyone
has been with in Lagos.

Enough!

Enough, Scar.

[breathing heavily]

[indistinct]

[jangling]

[in Yoruba] Can you see?

Scar, one.

Femi, zero.

[in Yoruba] Listen
to me carefully.

You see that your father's
gold ring is what I want.

The ring your father
keeps in his safe.

You'll go and get it for me.

Do you understand?

Go and get it.

Fool.

Stupid m*therf*cker.
