A Time for Sunset (2025)

[bunniefuu]

[hollow wind, radio static]

Hey. Doesn't look like I'm

going to make it out of here.

So I wanted to make a

video for you and Kirby.

Maybe you show it

to her when she's older.

[SIRENS]

[radio static]

Life is shorter than we think.

[sirens, radio static]

Hey, man.

Can you hear me?

[Radio call] Nine one twelve.

I'm going to need

a cleaner at the room.

Hey, man, stay with me.

Stay with me.

We're going to get you to a hospital.

He's lost a lot of blood.

[radio chatter]

Ok.

(heavy breath) Love you. Mean it.

[radio chatter]

(suspenseful music)

[radio static]

(suspenseful music)

[siren, alarm beep]

(suspenceful music)

[alarm beeping]

(suspenceful music)

(phone ringing)

[lock beep, door latch opens]

[door thuds closed]

(suspenseful music)

[click of light switch]

(suspenseful music)

(suspenseful music)

(phone ringing)

(suspenseful music)

(outside, in hall) Can't catch me!

(outside, in hall) Says who?

(footsteps, suspenseful music)

(kids playing)

(phone ringing)

(answer tone)

Hey.

Hello, husband.

We just got home.

You look tired, honey.

I am tired.

But I can't go to sleep yet

because I have work to do.

What are you guys doing?

Well, Kirby and I are

putting away groceries.

It's Taco Tuesday.

You're missing it.

How are your meetings?

Very exciting.

I'm so sorry I missed it.

What do you talk about

in those meetings anyway?

Risk management for insurance claims.

Boring.

I would sh**t myself.

I've thought about it a few times.

[laughing] Well, we miss you.

Hey, there's a little

girl who wants to say hello.

Put her on.

Daddy?

Hey, baby cakes, what are you doing?

Helping mommy.

You are?

That sounds like

you're being a big helper.

Yeah.

And guess what?

What?

She gave me a whole dollar!

A whole dollar?

Wow!

What are you gonna do with it?

I can't see you.

Where are you?

Oh, I'm still here, sweet pea.

I can hear you.

Keep talking.

When you comming home?

Tomorrow.

Promise?

Of course, have I ever lied to you, baby?

No.

I wish you would come home tonight,

and tuck me in bed.

Well, that sounds good,

but I'm in a city far, far away.

I don't like that.

No more going to work.

Hey, I'll be able to retire soon

and then I'll be home every night.

What do you think about that, sweet pea?

Yay! [Wife laughs]

Have you brushed your teeth?

Mommy said I can have a popsicle!

Ooh, that sounds good.

You do that.

Here's mommy.

I love you, daddy.

I love you too, sweet pea.

(laughing)

We don't like you being gone.

You know what?

After I retire, I'll be home so much,

you'll be begging me to leave.

We'll risk it.

Okay, I'll call you guys

from the road tomorrow.

Okay, love you, mean it.

Love you, mean it more.

[chambers a round]

(ominous music)

Code in.

One, one, nine.

Status.

In position, but early.

Acknowledged.

Traffic.

Light is green.

We will text when mark is close.

Acknowledged, out.

(phone ringing, ominous music)

(ominous music)

(door latch opening, action music)

(door slams shut) Ow!

Hey!

What are you doing?

I'm so sorry, sir.

I thought the room was empty.

I work here, my name's Carl.

Carl, how did you get in my room?

Oh, I have a pass-key.

Hey, that belongs to me.

Me, it belongs to me now, Carl.

I want you to read this sign to me, Carl.

Does it say barge into my

room anytime unannounced?

Is that what that says?

No, sir, I'm really sorry.

It won't happen again, I promise.

But please don't tell my boss.

I really need this job.

You shouldn't be worried

about your job, Carl.

You should be worried about your life!

Just a little joke, Carl.

Okay, good one, sir.

Well, good night, sorry again.

(ominous music)

(music, night ambiance)

(eerie music)

(eerie music, shades opening)

(music, sounds of traffic)

Come on already.

(eerie music)

(phone ringing)

Yes?

Finally, I've been calling and calling.

How can I help you?

You know, you shouldn't

leave the curtains open.

I'm sorry, I didn't

know I had a peeping, Tom.

I guess that cherry over your ticker

got your attention, huh?

I don't know what you're talking about.

Really?

Then why are you on the

floor hiding from the window?

I think you have the wrong number.

Oh no, I definitely have your number.

I'm on the do not call list.

I'm not the solicitor.

Well, if you're not trying

to sell me anything,

then why are you calling me?

Because I'm gonna k*ll you.

(phone hangs up, eerie music)

Code in.

One, one, nine.

Status.

I've been targeted.

Status of target.

Unknown. Abort?

I say again abort?

Proceed is ordered.

What if... Stay on target.

I don't know what I'm dealing with here.

Maintain position and

execute primary protocol.

Acknowledge.

Acknowledged.

(eerie music)

(phone ringing)

Oasis massage parlor.

Oh, you're a comedian too.

That's what I love about you Americans.

Always joking.

But I don't think you understand

the gravity of this situation, John.

Do you need a minute to process?

I can always call you back.

No, actually now is perfect.

What is it you want?

Since I'm going to be the

last one to see you alive,

we should get to know each other.

How considerate of you.

Just when I'd given

up hope on all mankind.

It is pleasure to make

your acquaintance, John.

Oh, I didn't catch your name?

Me?

Just call me Grim, as in reaper.

Well, Grimmy, I'm not

so good on the phone.

Why don't you come up to my room?

We meet in person.

I can call room service

and have them bring some biscuits up.

Funny.

What do you mean Grim?

I'm not trying to be funny.

This is not time for comedy, John.

There's time to laugh, time to cry.

Time to be born, time to die.

You don't have to die yet.

Come up and have some laughs.

We'll meet someday, but not right now.

No, I'm afraid there'll be fire,

brimstone and eternal damnation

when we see each other again.

I mean, if you believe

in that sort of thing.

Me, I'm convinced devil is a woman.

Aren't they all?

Amen, to that.

So Grim, you had me in your sights.

Why didn't you just fade to black?

It's complicated.

Plus that would be way too easy.

What fun would that be?

Oh, so now you're doing it for fun.

Aren't you?

I don't know what

you're talking about Grim.

I'm an insurance claims adjuster

and I'm in town for a

risk management seminar.

What the coincidence, so am I.

But don't you love our job?

I wouldn't say I love it

as much as I'm just good at it.

You've never enjoyed it?

Oh, my insurance adjuster job, sure.

No need for the charade.

We both know who you are and what you do.

I think of it as doing society a favor.

That's clever, I like it.

I hope you don't mind if I use it.

No problem at all.

I will have to license it

to you so I need your name.

My name doesn't matter.

You won't be around to

use the line anymore anyway.

And I guess you're the one

that's supposed to make that happen.

Something like that.

And when are you supposed to try this?

Try?

You mean do.

Before the night is over,

but not before you complete your job.

How considerate of you.

What kind of professional would I be

if I didn't allow you to

close out your work order?

That would give us both bad name.

Can't have that.

So while we're just

sitting around waiting,

I thought we would

get to know each other.

Well, Grim, that's gonna be pretty hard

if you don't tell me anything about you.

Of course you know something about me.

You know I could have already k*lled you.

You know I'm going to k*ll you.

But now that we know each other,

I'm going to be deeply

saddened by your passing.

But I get over it.

Well, Grim, I'll save you

the sadness by not dying.

I guess no one ever told you not to play

with laser pointers?

It interferes with air traffic.

(g*n fires, heart pounding music)

Still there?

If that's your aim, I feel safer already.

I'm just toying with you, John.

Like cat with mouse.

If you like playing games,

how about making it a little more fair?

I'm listening.

You know where I am,

tell me where you are.

Funny, you should have been comedian.

No money in it.

True, but you could

have k*lled them on stage.

Get it?

If you have to explain your jokes,

speaking of stand up,

how about you stand up and

I see what you look like?

I look like guys that's going to cash

in your award card.

Well, if you're so

confident this is going to happen,

why don't you at least tell

me who's signing your check.

So who the hell is it

that the people I work for?

I only work for cash

and I'm sworn to secrecy.

Well then, Grim,

I guess we have

nothing else to talk about.

(dramatic music)

(phone ringing)

Miss me?

Only on purpose.

So say you.

Look, I think we may have gotten off on

the wrong foot here.

Yeah, that often happens

when someone tries to k*ll you.

There is no try.

There is just do or do not.

A Yoda quote.

Hmm, I would have

pegged you as more of a Luke,

since you probably don't

know who your father is.

What, too close to home?

What made you say that?

Call it the way I see it.

In fact, that's probably

why you're so attracted to me.

I'm like a father figure to you.

Hilarious, but you're not my type.

I prefer blondes.

Rude, I gotta go do my hair.

Of course it's not gonna be that easy.

(sighing)

(phone ringing)

You're gonna use up all

my pay-as-you-go minutes.

I've decided we

should be civil about this.

Oh, so you're not gonna k*ll me, great.

I am going to k*ll you.

I'm talking about you being civil.

By accepting your

fate, you have no options.

Oh, there's always options, Grim.

I'm afraid all exit ramps lead to me.

Then I guess I'm taking the detour.

Unfortunately, this is only exit for you.

Let's talk about your journey.

You're obviously

still wet behind the ears.

A newbie, a green pea.

I guess you're trying to

make a name for yourself

by taking someone like me out?

This is not my debut.

I may not have your numbers, yet.

Which team are you playing for?

Let's just say, same

conference, different division.

So you got this

assignment because you've already

made a name for yourself.

If you're so famous, then

why don't I know anything

about you?

Never said I was famous.

Your words, not mine.

But you wanna be.

Never really thought about it.

Of course you have.

That's why you took this gig.

Everyone wants to be remembered.

I would say admired and respected.

You wanna be somebody.

I am somebody.

Well, just remember this, Grim.

If everybody's

somebody, then nobody's anybody.

Whatever that means, I know who I am.

That is all that matters.

And who's that?

Nice try.

I'm the same person I was yesterday

and will be the same person tomorrow.

Just a little richer.

You haven't earned

that paycheck yet, Grim.

It's predestined.

I don't believe in predestination.

I think you just take

life as it comes at you.

Then you'll be ready later this evening.

Something going to be

coming at you mighty fast.

My plans are really tight tonight, Grim,

but I might be able to work you in.

Wow, you are important.

Thank you for working me in.

But seriously, you really think you're

going to walk out of the hotel alive?

You really telling yourself that?

Of course I will, Grim. I always do.

You have to admit that

I have advantage here.

I know where you are and

you have no idea where I am.

I still have time to

teach you a thing or two.

Really?

And what great wisdom you

have to impart, oh wise one?

Well, you ruined the

best thing going for you,

which was the element of surprise.

That was your first mistake.

I chose to reveal myself to you.

So that's not mistake.

Next?

Next, never get close to your target.

I'm far enough away.

I'm not talking about location, Grim.

I'm talking about how you

and I are bonding right now.

Now, why did you go and do that?

I'm shy.

Huh.

It's not going to be

one of these b*ll*ts.

I don't know.

Who knows what all is on this mattress

after so many people have

done so many things on it.

Maybe the b*llet won't even penetrate it.

Or hit a spring and deflect

or something. Who knows?

But at least you won't be able to see me.

You had to have seen me through a crack

in those shades when you

took that shot earlier.

That's cheating.

Cheating implies there are

rules, Grim. There are no rules.

There are always rules, John.

Codes. Like how I didn't sh**t you yet.

That's not as much of a

code as it is a choice,

which is a choice I agree with, by the

way, not sh**ting me.

But I'm also going to make a choice.

I'm not going to play by any rules.

You have to move it at

some point to hit your target.

You can go ahead and take it down now.

I won't sh**t you. Yet. I promise.

Yeah, you mentioned that.

And you still don't believe me.

Where is your face in the fellow man?

I don't know that I ever had that.

Yeah, I can believe that. I just need to

make sure that you don't run out on me.

Like you could stop me.

Right. And you would go

where? Just stay in the room.

Too late. I'm already running down the

hall to the elevator.

Oop, I'm losing you in the elevator.

[phone rings]

I can't talk now. My Uber's here.

Gotta love that flavored

smell of a kid who vapes.

Hilarious. You know the

only way is front door.

You think I wouldn't do my homework?

What if I sprint and make a run for it?

You can't outrun a Lee Harvey.

Unless you can run 750 meters a second.

Plus, there are two other reasons you do

not want to do that.

Oh, yeah. What's that?

Your wife and daughter.

You leave them out of this.

Like you said, we have codes.

That is what I'm trying to do, John.

But if you pull Houdini on

me, things might get crazy.

And someone could accidentally

sh**t them trying to find you.

You're bluffing.

No. Unfortunately for you, I am not.

I have your complete file here.

Let's see. Your

daughter Kirby is really cute.

Don't talk about my daughter.

Okay. Let's not talk about her.

I don't want you getting all upset.

But I think I've made my point.

You leave, they die.

You stay and cash in

your chips like a man.

They live.

You're forgetting

about door number three.

Ha. Okay. And that is?

I sh**t you.

Which if you have my file,

you know the odds are on me.

Let's see. What does your

file say about you, John?

Salt and pepper hair, 225 pounds.

200, I've been working out.

Really? Let's see.

Move the mattress away from window.

It is so heavy. Why don't

you come help me move it?

I don't know why we

can't be friendly about this.

I don't know why you

can't see why we can't.

It's nothing personal.

I always find it personal when someone

tries to put a b*llet in my brain.

If we're going to be honest with each

other, it's always personal.

Yes, it is.

(knock on door)

What do you want?

Oh, it's the room

service you ordered, sir.

I didn't order anything.

They told me you did downstairs.

They're confused.

Well, sir, I'm very sorry, but you're

going to have to call downstairs

for a refund, or else they're going to

charge it to your room.

What is it?

I don't know, sir.

It's whatever you ordered.

Just leave it and go, Carl.

Yes, sir. But make sure to hurry up or

else it's going to get cold.

I didn't know it's going to get cold

if you don't know what I ordered?

(phone rings)

What?

I hope you don't mind. I sent up some

food. Sort of last supper.

You need to cancel it because I'm already

running down the stairs.

I won't be there to get it.

Huh. Right. You wouldn't do

something foolish like that.

As far as you know, I'm on the roof

siding you right now.

I hope not.

For sake of your wife and daughter.

You know k*lling me

doesn't solve your problem.

They will just send someone else to

where ever you're trying to hide.

Ah, but I get to k*ll you.

Well, if you decide to play hero,

you'll have to do it from

the room, not the roof.

I need you to stay in the room.

How do I know you're not planning on

k*lling the wife and kid anyway?

No need to harm civilians if you can get

job done without it.

You have my word.

Wow, I feel better already.

To be honest, it's not my call.

But I understand that if you go quietly,

then they will leave family alone.

And I'm certainly not going to k*ll

someone and not get paid.

And you won't be alive

after tonight to do it.

Ever the optimistic.

There's no need to get

excited about your family.

I don't want you

having heart attack on me.

And Rob, you have your opportunity to

increase your scorecard.

Yes, well, you'll be interfering with my

livelihood, taking

money out of my pocket.

Maybe that's how I get to you.

I put a b*llet in my brain

now and you don't get paid.

Like I wouldn't take credit for that.

Trust me, I would get paid on that k*ll.

Maybe I jump out this window

to my very public death below.

Would still sh**t you

before you splashed the ground.

Boom, credit.

Speaking of splashdown, nature calls.

(phone rings)

What?

Well, hello to you too.

Oh, sorry.

Thought you were someone else.

Who?

Never mind.

Never mind?

What's going on?

Oh, there you are.

Nothing, just my boss.

I didn't look at the phone when

I answered and I thought

it was him calling again.

Oh.

I thought you guys

would be asleep by now.

Not yet.

We're, um, watching a Disney movie.

Why do you want to do that?

Because our daughter's six.

Why wouldn't we?

Because all the parents in those movies

are either dead or going to be dead.

What?

Bambi's mom's dead.

Tarzan's parents dead.

The parents in Frozen dead.

Cinderella and Snow White's parents dead.

Quasimodo's mother dead.

The father of Lion King dead.

And Dumbo, no father, probably dead.

Okay.

Have you been drinking?

No, but I wish I was.

But anyway, if something were to happen

to me, you know where the

life insurance information is, right?

What?

Yes, I know where everything is.

Why are you being weird?

I'm not.

We were just talking about dying

and we actually talked about

life insurance in the seminar today.

But you know what?

Never mind.

I'll see you guys tomorrow.

Oh, wait. Kirby?

Good night.

Good night, sweet pea.

I love you.

Love you.

I mean it.

You need to go to bed, okay?

Love you, mean it more.

(phone rings)

Touching.

I almost teared up at

the Dumbo's father's part.

Poacher's probably got him for his ivory.

Ha, ha.

Laugh now while you can.

You can't light her with

a b*llet in your brain.

Okay, okay.

I'm sorry about

listening in on your call.

I just need to make sure you don't do

something dumb like call

the police or tip off your

wife, which is why I should probably tell

you there's a little

insurance policy in that

department.

Oh, really? What's that?

There's a guy outside your house.

So I call her back.

I tell her to get the g*n inside the

house, drop your

boyfriend, and then I pick them

up after I k*ll you.

Right.

I don't think that... what's her name?

Susan?

I don't think Susan's going to be able to

pull that off without

eating some lead and

spraying the wall.

But you can try.

You can even text message

her so I don't hear you.

But as your new friend,

I wouldn't suggest that.

Better text one of your special forces

buddies to try to rescue

her after you're already

dead.

That's what friends are for.

Don't have friends.

Even a green pea like

you should know that.

Assassins work alone, except for that

occasional spotter who

disappears after he

knows what he's doing.

Well, I guess it is good

that we're becoming pals then.

Now you can say you have one.

If I were your pal, I'd have to warn you

that you're probably the

next target for whoever

you're working for.

Perhaps.

But I have a lot of years before they

tried to retire me old timer.

Do you even know who

my target is tonight?

No.

And I don't want to know.

Well, Jack Ruby, the first step of a

successful assassination is

to eliminate all the witnesses.

Modus operandi.

Assassinate the assassins.

So why have they kept me around so far?

My good looks?

I don't know.

Take a selfie and send it to me.

I would, but the lighting's not great.

Like I said, it's one thing to take out a

t*rror1st or a drug

lord no one cares about.

It's quite another to take out the

political figure of another country.

Ha ha ha.

So this is a special one, huh?

One thing's for sure.

Whoever comes after you is not going to

make the same mistakes you're making now.

You'll never see it coming.

So where does your conspiracy theory end?

According to you, there should be a long

line of us waiting to

take each other out.

Sort of domino effect.

Stops with the person

who doesn't know anything.

The key is to try to be that person.

(noise in hall)

We have visitors.

Damn kids in the hall again.

Yeah, well, I wouldn't let them too close

to room service cart.

As a little insurance policy to keep you

in the room, I

included a little side of C4.

With some help from my bellboy Carl,

there's a trigger wire wrapped around the

door handle from the tray.

Just to let you know.

Get away from my food, punks.

Says who? Who's back there?

The guy that's going to put a b*llet in

both of your brains if you don't beat it.

(phone rings)

What?

Wow, that was close.

You and this kid almost bought the farm.

Just out of curiosity, what was your plan

if that had happened?

Well, I knew you wouldn't open door when

someone is trying to k*ll you.

But the kids were a problem.

But I guess I would have just

left and collected my check.

What about my target?

Not my job. My only job is you.

I'll just tell them the plan had to

change because you were

abandoning your mission.

You haven't even asked who my target is.

Again, my only concern is you.

You have to be curious.

As they say, that

information is on a need to know basis.

Oh, you think this might be a party line

with other people listening, and you're

worried about being next.

Nope. I really just don't care.

But I can start to hear the

desperation in your voice.

Really? About what?

Because I've outsmarted you. And there is

nothing you can do about it.

I wouldn't count me out yet.

Oh, you think so?

(tense music)

(phone rings)

What now?

You're being very rude,

considering I'm doing you a favor.

Really? What's that?

I could have just k*lled you without

telling you anything.

But then you would never know the truth.

And the truth is?

That your employer is

letting you go today.

You know, statistics show it's best to

let the employee go on the weekend.

That way they don't

cause any problems for you.

Statistics show that if you k*ll the

employee, they will

never cause any problems.

Assuming you k*ll the

employee before he kills you.

Maybe the employee kills

the employer at the same time?

Guess there will be

sudden deaths over time.

Want to flip a coin?

Just be prepared to receive.

[music]

You just couldn't listen, could you?

It wasn't my fault.

Yeah, you were gone forever.

Oh, yeah.

(knocks)

You're sure this is the room?

Yeah. He threatened to

put a b*llet in our brains.

Hey!

I know you're in there.

(door handle jiggles, more knocking)

Hey!

Go away.

Leave. Now.

Did you threaten my kids?

If you don't leave, I'm

going to call hotel security.

(banging on door)

Get your a*s out of here!

You listen to me.

If you don't leave right now, all three

of you are going to die.

You need to understand that this is not a

joke, and you need to leave right now.

You have not seen the last of me!

as*h*le!

That was pretty intense.

Did you use that line on your wife, or

was it off the cuff?

Are you enjoying this?

Of course I am.

If it wasn't for this, I would just be

watching television.

Now I know you're in your room.

Limits of locations from

where you can get a shot.

Telling me that was a rookie mistake.

Mistake or diversion?

You took too long to answer.

You're not as good as you think you are.

I'm better. Better than you.

Isn't that the goal?

Each age group is

better than the one before?

Your generation knows nothing about

spilling blood for the right cause.

I know the average human has about five

liters of blood

running through their veins.

I know to take a shot that can make you

bleed out slowly over five minutes.

It's all about the time, isn't it?

The time it takes to die,

the time it takes to live.

People live their lives

wishing for time to speed up.

Waiting to turn 21,

waiting for a weekend.

Then they reach a certain age when they

wish time would slow down,

because it seems to be

passing by too quickly.

I think you're wasting time now because

you're having second

thoughts about sh**ting me.

No, I'm good.

Speaking of time, it's almost go time.

Which brings up an important question.

And that is?

If you're not supposed to sh**t me until

I complete my mission,

what happens if I miss or abandon my

mission and don't sh**t at all?

I still k*ll you. Your

target is not my problem.

And if you don't know who my target is,

how do you know when to sh**t?

John, you are a consummate professional.

I trust you won't miss.

Plus, you're not the type to leave

mission uncompleted.

You're a**l that way.

Maybe I'm a different person when

someone's trying to sh**t me.

I've studied you. I know your process.

You just can't walk

away until you're done.

You got that for my

social media profiles.

Like I said, I don't

care who your target is.

I'll give you a hint.

Right. So I can be next domino to fall?

No, no. It'll be our little secret.

No, thanks.

Your IQ just went up a point.

Thank you. I accept your compliment.

And you studied me? You need a hobby.

This is my hobby.

Then you are mental.

It is you that could benefit from some

couch time right now.

Coming up on your exit and all.

And you're the one

going to give me couch time.

Well, good shrink

would cost you top dollar.

My services are offered to

you for free as parting gift.

Save it for the next guy. If

you live through the night,

maybe you'll have another

occupation to fall back on.

Yeah, that won't be necessary.

(knock on door)

Oh, sounds like you have guests.

Mr. Smith?

Mr. Smith? Very clever. No one

will figure that one out.

Just tell them to come back after nine.

(knocking)

Yes.

I'm the hotel manager. May I have a word?

What about?

Don't let them open that door, Mr. Smith.

I just need to speak with

you for a moment, please.

Don't let them open the door.

Sorry, I can't get to the

door right now. I'm naked.

Sir, please. We've had a complaint.

What does it have to do with me?

Sir, I'm sure that this is

something we can resolve.

I just need you to open the door.

Okay, I can't do that right now, but I'll

come down in a few minutes. I promise.

Sir, we need to resolve this now or we'll

have to call the police.

You have a key. Just open his door.

Mam, please!

Sir, it is my legal right to open your

door and enter your room

when there is a problem. Please.

Do you want them to die?

I wouldn't do that if I were you.

Oh, he's opening the door.

(beep of lock opening)

This is going to be

like your 4th of July.

Oh, take cover.

Mr. Smith.

I wish I could see your

stupid face right now.

Knock, knock.

Oh, uh, Mr. Smith.

I'll come out.

Let me call you back.

Sir, this 'lady' claims that you've

threatened to k*ll her and her children?

You know, I do remember that.

I'm sorry. I apologize and

it will never happen again.

Satisfied?

Hell no! I will not be

treated this way in your hotel!

Ma'am, he apologized.

Oh, he clearly doesn't mean it.

I want this man arrested.

And I want my room comped.

Well, looks like we're all done here. I

have to get back, so you

guys have a good night.

Oh, if you're not going

to call the police, I am.

as*h*le!

(phone rings)

Nice trick.

(laughing) Thanks, John. I was proud of

that one. I can't believe you thought

this Carl wired your door.

How junior high-ish of you.

What's even funnier is, Carl

had no idea he was in on it.

Comedy gold.

Yeah, that was a good one.

Let me make it up to you, John.

Okay. Put a b*llet through

your head and we'll call it even.

(b*llet crashes through window)

Missed again.

Trust me. I know exactly where you are.

You need to relax. Enjoy the experience.

Soak in the few minutes you have left.

I'll celebrate after I k*ll you.

What I don't understand is, you didn't

say anything about those boys at your

door not having father in their lives.

He probably shot himself

if he was married to her.

Now you're coming around.

And you're so quick to guess

I didn't have father.

You were easier to profile. I could tell

right away you never had

anyone to care about you.

You don't know sh*t about me.

(upbeat music)

(sirens echo)

(dramatic music)

[ (phone rings ]

You didn't think I'd gone away, did you?

Only hoped.

Sorry to disappoint. Listen, I've decided

to make it up to you for that little gag.

Now I'm sending you a real surprise.

I'm tired of your games, Grim.

I think you'll like this one.

Another exploding cart?

Similar, but way better.

Actually, should be at

your door right about now.

(knock at door)

Damn. I'm good.

So you're waiting out in the hall to take

a shot when I peek out.

Nice try, but no.

I'd put another b*llet in the mattress to

show you, but I don't want to

accidentally nail the girl

before the real show starts.

So how the hell do you know when

someone's out in the hall anyway?

Wait, you really don't know?

What happened to you, John? Did you

forget to take your meds today?

John, let's not leave

the pritty girl waiting.

Please, mister.

I'm Julie.

How can I help you, Julie?

This guy said I had to get in your room

or he would k*ll me.

Who is this guy?

I don't know his name. He didn't tell me.

What does he look like?

I didn't see his face.

Okay, Julie, I didn't see anyone.

So why didn't you just run?

Julie?

He said that he'd set it off and k*ll me

if I left your room.

(phone rings)

What is this?

Isn't it obvious?

I thought you said there were rules.

Well, John, you decided to

break them, so I had to too.

By using an innocent girl?

Trust me, she is far from innocent.

Actually, she was supposed to be for me

tonight, sort of a congratulatory thing.

But I decided it would be way more

interesting if you had a

chance to play with her.

For a few minutes anyway.

Go ahead, she's all paid for.

You've gone too far with this, Grim.

I just give you my girl and you're

getting self-righteous on me?

You need to learn how to show a little

appreciation when someone

does something nice for you.

Look, if you can't get it up because

you're too nervous about

what is about to happen to you,

talk to her about her daddy issues.

You know a lot about that kind of thing.

And it's clear she has no father.

[sighs]

Who are you?

It's better if you don't know.

Who's he?

I wish I knew.

Is he really gonna k*ll me?

Why is he doing this?

It's his idea of a game.

Why me?

Wrong place, wrong time.

Are you gonna k*ll me?

No.

Turn around very slowly. Let me see the

front again, please.

Can you get this off?

No, it's hardwired.

If I try to take it

off, it will detonate.

What about this?

That's the timer.

Can you figure it out or

hack into it or something?

I don't think so.

I'm gonna be sick.

Okay, but don't mess

with it. It'll go off.

You okay?

Yeah, I'm f*cking great.

I was talking about

the throwing up stuff.

Don't mess with it! Stop! Stop!

Stop!

You're gonna k*ll us both.

What can you tell me about him?

Nothing.

I walked to his room.

The door just opened.

I walked in.

And then he grabbed me from behind.

And he stuck something in the back of my

neck that made me pass out.

When I woke up, he was gone.

This was strapped on me with this note.

It says that if I run or

call the police, then...

He'll k*ll me.

I tried to take this off, but I couldn't.

Okay, was the hotel across the street?

What was the room number?

I don't remember.

It's in my phone. He took it.

But it's on the sixth floor.

Okay, that's helpful.

There's a lot of windows, but at least I

know which floor he's on.

He took your phone?

Yes.

Can we use your phone here?

No, not an option. He'll be listening.

Is there anyone that would

come looking for you right now?

No.

(phone rings)

It's him.

Why don't you answer it?

Because that's what he wants.

He might tell us

something we need to know.

Yeah, and that's why I keep answering and

answering and trying to get useful

information and not get nothing.

Please, just answer it.

Please.

What?

Am I interrupting anything?

I was just talking to

Julie here about you.

Julie?

The girl you kidnapped

and strapped a b*mb to?

Haha. Oh yeah. Never learned her name.

Haha. Let her go.

Let her go? Why would I do that?

She should not be a

part of this little game.

Oh, I disagree. This

makes the game much more fun.

This should be between two professionals.

Okay, so open door. Set her free.

She said you'll set off

the b*mb if she goes out.

That's true. But between you and me, the

b*mb is going to go off anyway, so you

may as well give her some hope.

Let her make run for it. She can at least

die with the hope she's

going to make it. Just like you.

Just tell me how to deactivate it.

I said you let her go.

Not like this.

Come on, John. She's a wh*re. What does

she even have to live for?

Can you imagine having to have to show up

at a strange hotel and some big fat guy

opens a door, has no teeth?

Then you have to take off all your

clothes, crawl into the bed with him.

Two minutes later, he rolls off of you,

throws some money on

Dresser, and tells you to get out?

Haha. Trust me. This isn't doing society

a favor. This is doing her a favor.

She's better off

dead. I promise you that.

Listen. She is just a kid. She doesn't

know who you are. She doesn't

even know what you look like.

She cannot ID you.

Okay, okay, okay. But why

do you care about her anyway?

Tell me how to deactivate it.

Fine. Have her sit down.

She is.

Okay. Look at keypad.

What's going on?

She's telling me how to deactivate it.

Enter star 44, then press pound key.

It's just flashing.

What is it? What's wrong?

Did you do exactly as I said?

Yes.

It should definitely not be flashing.

What's going on?

It must be caught in command loop.

What does that mean?

I just want to go home.

You need to do master override.

So how do I do that?

Inside of timers, there

are small series of buttons.

They are recessed, so you'll

have to use something sharp.

Okay, hang on.

You want to save her or not?

Okay, I got it.

Do you see reset buttons?

No, I don't even know where to look.

Move mattress from window so I can see.

I'll guide you.

John, you don't have

luxury to think about this.

What makes girl become hooker anyway?

Not everyone has a lot

of choices in life, Grim.

Oh, come on. Everyone has choices.

No, there has to be something else.

Why don't you bring her over to the

window and we can ask her.

Okay, Julie, come closer to the window.

Do you want to live? Come on.

Can we stop playing

your stupid games now?

Stupid games?

Does it hurt my feelings, John?

Which reset button?

Hang on for a minute. Let's seize moment

and ask her a few

questions before we let her go.

It's not every day you have bombs

strapped to a hooker.

We could learn a lot.

Are you going to tell me

how to disarm this vest?

If she wants me to help her out of this

mess, she'll have to answer

some of my questions first.

It's her decision. So ask her.

What?

He wants you to answer some questions

before I disarm the b*mb.

This one has to have daddy issues.

Put me on speaker. Let's

ask about their father.

He wants to know about your father.

My father?

Why do you want to know about my father?

What can you tell us about him?

Not much. He left when I was a kid.

Oh, I'm so sorry to hear that.

Must have been really, really sad.

Losing your dad and I right when you

needed him the most.

Is that why you became hooker?

Who knew little girl without father would

grow up to be a wh*re?

Alright, that's enough.

You think that will happen to Kirby John?

John?

[phone rings]

Damn, John.

It really is too bad neither

of us will get to enjoy her.

Can you stop?

I'm sensing you're

growing impatient, John.

Tell me the reset button.

Well, you see the three silver colored

buttons on the side?

Yes.

One, two, three.

Press button number three.

You're gonna have to be very still.

Be very still.

BOOOM!!!

(laughs) This is too much fun, John.

Too much fun.

Did I really press number three?

Yes. You pressed number three.

Such a d*ck!

Okay, be still.

(building music)

(beep, tense breath)

(silence)

Okay, it's off.

(gasping)

[Panting]

[g*nsh*t. Pounding music ]

No!!

Nice shot, no?

Maybe a little bit to the left.

But not bad.

[sirens echo]

Look at the bright side, John.

She's in better place now.

Can't be worse than where she was before.

[beep]

When this goes off, you will join her.

You could have turned it off at any time.

Yeah, it's called wireless command.

Pretty cool, huh?

There is no reason for her to die.

We went over this.

She was going to die

anyway when b*mb goes off.

She just exited a few

minutes before you will.

(rythmic music)

[Dramatic music]

Try using the remote now, green pea.

[Phone ringing]

Sorry, John. Truly.

She was a real angel.

Or at least she is now.

You know, apologizing would require you

to actually feel something for someone

other than yourself.

Come on.

We can't feel anything

for anyone in this business.

Why do you think I use prostit*tes?

We can't have relationships.

It never works.

Right.

Hong Wu.

Humm?

That is who your target is.

I did a little research

while you were mourning.

Has to be him. Very Impressive.

I'm so glad you're impressed.

Oh, come on...

Aren't you the lease bit excited?

Should I be?

Well, takeing him out

could litterally start world w*r 3

I think you're making

too much out of this, Grim.

Think about it.

The course of history

lies in your trigger finger.

I don't see it.

Wow. Maybe we should trade places.

Sure.

What's your room number?

Ha, funny

Just think, by this time tomorrow

one billion people

will be cursing your name.

He's getting what he has coming to him

for his crimes against humanity.

Is that what they told you?

Oh John. Always the patriot.

You need to think a little bit more

what this really means.

They don't pay us to

think, only to execute.

Have you brushed up

on your conspiracies recently?

No, I've been completely

preoccupied with the Kardashians.

Well, you should.

Because you are right in the

middle of one.

But its a shame you are getting sunsetted

tonight and won't be around

to see results of your actions.

We'll see who's

around at sunrise tomorrow.

Ah, We'll see.

I'll tell you what, Grim.

I'll leave $20 on the table here.

Oh, wow. Big money.

If you win, it's all yours.

Just a symbolic amount, of course.

Leave it as tip for maid.

She'll have to clean

up mess tomorrow anyway.

You mean the cleaner.

They don't send cleaners

in conspiracies, remember?

They leave your body to be found.

Crazy guy goes on

k*lling Spree, shoots a hooker,

starts sh**ting outside,

kills some Chinese guy,

then sets off b*mb to k*ll

himself and others in hotel.

It's a really sad story, but at least now

you know Julie was

always part of the plan, John.

She didn't die for nothing.

It always looks better if you k*ll more

people than your

target, make it look random.

I have to charge my phone.

I'll be right back.

Don't go anywhere.

[phone rings]

Hey, I was just seeing if

you guys were still awake.

I guess you're not.

Can't wait to see you tomorrow.

[knock on door]

Hold on.

[knock on door]

[garbled police radio. More knocking]

Just a minute.

[more knocking]

[police radio chatter]

Evening.

How can I help you, officer?

We received a call that

you had, how'd she put it,

threatened a mother and her

children and terrorized them?

Did you meet this woman?

I did have the pleasure. I can see why

you wanted to sh**t her.

I do have to check the room. Hope you

don't mind. Police policy.

Okay...

But I was gonna crash here in a minute.

Strange pajamas.

I get hot when I sleep.

What's this?

Officer. Golf club.

You're a golfer?

Man, I could never get into it.

I have to play for work.

Expensive game.

Nice suit.

You a lawyer?

Insurance adjuster.

All right.

Okay, well, I gotta get some rest and

it's like we're all done here.

You alone tonight?

Yeah. Part of the job when

you travel too much, right?

Hmm.

No working girl around here somewhere?

Must be a previous guest's.

Hmm. Okay.

Look, I ain't gonna bust you

or nothing. I mean, I'm just...

Man's got his needs, you know, gets

lonely out here on the road.

Even when there's

people around, you know?

No. I'm not into that.

If you say so.

Mind if I use your john?

All that coffee out there on the road,

I just... Yeah. Don't

worry. Both stinking up.

[sound of peeing]

Oww sh*t!

You okay in there?

Yeah. Yup.

51. Unit 51 all clear.

[suspense full music]

All set?

One more thing.

Sir?

I'm gonna need you to put your hands up.

Turn around real slow.

You know what, officer?

I think that's a great idea.

I think you should take me in.

[b*llet hits officer. Dramatic sounds]

[phone rings]

Wow. That was a close one.

You see that precision hit?

I'm so glad you're impressed with

yourself in k*lling

another innocent person.

Ah, you're welcome. He

was about to arrest you.

I would have walked. Way too many

important people involved

in this for them to hold me.

There's no way out of this, John. If

you're arrested, you'll be found

mysteriously hanging in your cell.

Suicide. Same sad ending.

[phone rings]

Why don't you just prop

a pillow under his head?

So he's a little more comfortable.

Your generation is so disrespectful.

Not that he'll appreciate the gesture.

But let me prove you wrong that my

generation is disrespectful.

I'll pass on any final words

for your wife and daughter.

That won't be necessary.

Oh, come on.

It's the least I can do.

Although I probably won't

mention that I was the one that

had the sun set you tonight.

And you won't be alive to do it.

OK, but you can't say I didn't offer.

I don't want you going away

thinking I'm a bad person.

You're such a good person.

Why don't you tell me how

you see through that mattress?

John, John, John.

I can't believe you

haven't figured it out yet.

It doesn't really matter, does it?

You won't have to worry

about how I do any of this

after tonight.

Hello?

Earth to John?

See through that.

Took a little too long for

you to catch on, old timer.

You're not as good as you think you are.

I'm better.

Once the room temperature

hits my body temperature,

you're blind.

As far as my thermal scope goes, but it's

going to get a little

toasty in that room.

Who knows?

Maybe you lose 25 pounds.

You'll never see it.

Don't get too confident.

I still know where you are, but you

can't say the same for me.

You know the

difference between you and I?

Enlighten me.

My targets never see it coming.

It's like flipping off the life switch.

You, on the other hand,

like to terrorize your victims,

like you did with poor Julie here,

and what you're trying to do

with me with your mental games.

You're truly a sick individual.

It's not the same, is it?

Watching someone get k*lled up

close and personal like that,

instead of hiding behind the r*fle scope.

How does that make you feel, John?

Not as good as I feel when I k*ll you.

[phone ringing]

You again?

Always.

Now that you've had some

time to think about it,

what'd you decide?

You staying, or you

thinking about leaving?

I'm not leaving until the credits roll.

I knew I was right about you.

You can't walk away until

you complete your mission.

Just like all those

missions where you left families

without their fathers.

My conscious is clear.

It had to be done.

Speaking of families,

aren't you a little too

old to be starting one?

No, retirement is a perfect age.

More time with the kids.

So you were thinking that

you would just walk away

from this business?

Move to suburbs, coach

the kid's soccer team?

Something like that.

I hate to be one to take

you away from all that,

but as you said, it has to be done.

You had to know you

could never just walk away.

You know too much.

They were always going to sunset you.

But look on the bright side.

You'll never get so old you'll become

burdened to your family.

You know, changing your

diaper, pushing you around

in a wheelchair.

You'll have lost your

memory by that time,

so you don't even know who they are.

You see, tonight you will

be doing society a favor.

And the ironic thing is,

now your family will be

left without the father.

I'm sensing a theme here.

Then you are listening.

Look, if I had to take

out someone's father,

it's because he did

something to deserve it.

I'm just trying to show you the

consequences of your actions.

Unlike fathers you

k*lled, you will actually

know why you deserve it when it happens.

Like I said, what I did

was for the better good.

So you think you're a hero?

I'm as good as anyone else.

Really?

If you're so proud of yourself, why

aren't you honest with your wife?

You know we can't tell

people we're in this business.

You didn't tell her because

you know she wouldn't love you

if she knew who you really are.

Look, I don't know what

your deal is about my family

or any dads I may have taken out.

But if I didn't take out those targets,

someone else would have.

They were dead already.

They weren't the only

families to lose someone.

I walked away from a wife and child

once for their own safety

because my cover was blown.

But you wouldn't know

anything about that,

caring about someone else more than you

care about yourself.

I'm not dying here.

[phone rings]

Give up yet?

Ha ha ha.

They're the comedian.

I thought I lost you

overall that good versus bad talk.

I'm fine with who I am.

That's good.

Then you know why you're getting a b*llet

in your head tonight.

I thought you were blowing me up.

No, no.

That's after I sh**t

you, to cover up the tracks

and confuse everyone.

Oh, yeah.

You're going to have to

change that part of your plan.

I drowned your b*mb in

the timer in the bathtub.

Ahhh., , Good thinking.

Guess I can just leave

after sh**ting you now.

You actually saved me a step.

Maybe I can catch earlier flight.

I wouldn't call your airline just yet.

So any last words?

Last chance to get word to your kid?

No need.

Really?

It's the least I can do.

No need because it's not necessary.

I'll see my kid tomorrow, which is more

than I can say for you.

Not that you have

anyone to say goodbye to.

Well, think of it as a

just in case goodbye.

I think that your kid

would appreciate it.

I know that I would have

wanted to hear some last words

from my father.

Like, I won't make it home, kid.

But I love you.

You know, something like that.

But I guess you are not

as thoughtful as I am, huh?

What are you talking about?

My father.

Remember?

I told you this was personal.

You and I have special connection.

15 years ago today is anniversary

of my dad's untimely death.

Isn't that weird?

Hey, kid, your dad was shot in the head

so he won't be coming home ever.

That can really f*ck a kid up!

But don't worry.

Maybe, just maybe, your

kid will be perfectly fine

without her dad around.

Look, I'm sorry about your dad.

I obviously knew

nothing about him or you.

But if it was me that took him out,

I was just following orders.

You're no different.

Oh, now, John, I think that

I've shown you I am different.

Now...

Of course, I am going to

hell, just like you at the end.

But at least I had the

courtesy to tell you why

you're going to die tonight.

And unlike you, when you shot my father,

I offered to pass on

last words to your kid.

Yeah, you're right.

You're a saint.

You're definitely going to heaven.

Like I said, I've

already accepted the fact

that assassins like

us don't go to heaven.

If you think you're hot now...

That thermostat cranked up?

Wait until later tonight.

You don't know that.

Are you telling me

that God lets everyone in?

If that's true, then why

even bother trying to be good?

Never really thought about it.

You better start thinking.

If you believe in God, you

better get right with him

before you go out.

I think it's you that

should seize the opportunity.

Just out of

curiosity, who was your father?

All right.

I'll give you a clue.

Benjamin Hurley.

Benjamin Hurley?

How do you know that name?

Why don't you tell me?

[music]

[phone rings]

Sorry to interrupt again, but I am

confused about one thing.

Only one?

How are you going to

pick out targets in dark

when he will be

surrounded by a group of knee high men

that all look alike?

sh**t them all.

Now, that doesn't sound

like you, Mr. Perfect.

I'll positive ID my target before I fire.

Well, you better hurry.

You only have a couple minutes to decide.

It's OK.

I'm good with quick decisions.

Oh, good.

Here's a quick decision for you.

Because I like you, I

will give you choice.

Where do you want my surgically placed

strike, head or chest?

Wow, that's a toughie.

Is there an option C?

I'd say in the a*s, but then again, one

rarely dies from g*nsh*t wound in a*s.

There you go,

thinking about my a*s again.

So what's it going to be?

Fine.

sh**ter's choice.

OK, surprise me.

Well, I promise that you

won't suffer at least too long.

That's comforting.

Hey, you're getting

the star treatment here.

I wouldn't extend this

courtesy to just anyone.

I'll remember to send you

a thank you note tomorrow.

Oh, yeah?

You better thank me now.

I'll wait until the fat lady sings.

[dramatic music]

Ah, must be nice.

Get a little fresh air after being stuck

in that sauna for so long.

[traffic]

Tell me, how are you

going to make a k*ll shot

with shaky hands?

I'll manage.

I always do.

Should have invested in bipod.

Don't trust yourself.

I placed my stock in technology.

Can't rely on human body.

It'll fail you.

Well, I guess this is what

will separate us in the end.

That ends a hollow point

traveling 100 miles per minute.

$20 says otherwise.

Isn't this exciting?

I'm all tingly inside.

There's the caravan, right on time.

Just a little professional courtesy.

I see crosswind is picked up.

We'll probably push your b*llet right.

Shh, be quiet.

Take your time, John.

Get your nerves settled. Breathe

Relax.

Remember, just as they

taught you in sn*per school,

exhale slowly.

Squeeze triggers softly.

You've only got one shot at this.

[dramatic music playing]

You're going to lose him.

I see him.

Come on.

Come on, John.

You're running out of time.

He's on the move.

Don't let him enter the building.

It's go time.

sh**t.

sh**t now.

[music playing]

[supressed g*nf*re]

[heartbeat pings]

I guess World w*r III won't start now.

You there?

Told you I'd get you?

[phone ringing]

Code in.

One, one, nine

Status.

Status?

You got me.

Won't be long now.

Definitely not getting out so you can

leave my family alone.

Are you down?

Oh, yeah.

Medic in route.

Status of target.

Which one?

Missed my target.

Got your sh**ter.

We do not have a sh**ter.

Reassigning project now.

Stay where you are.

Medic in route.

[music playing]

Hey.

Doesn't look like I'm

going to make it out of here.

I wanted to make a

video for you and Kirby.

Maybe you just show it

to her when she's older.

Kirby, daddy won't be

able to see you again.

So I made this video for you.

Always do what mommy tells you to do

because mommy loves you

just as much as I do and

she knows what's best for you.

And live your life helping other people

and not hurting them.

You'll be more satisfied

with your life at the end.

Life is shorter than we think.

Daddy sure does love you, Kirby.

Daddy loves mommy too.

OK.

Love you, mean it.

[music playing]

[phone ringing]

I guess you won 20 bucks.

Good video to your daughter.

I wish you would have let my dad do one

for me before he died.

Till you tell me who your dad is.

I can't even confirm

you got the right guy.

I already told you.

Benjamin Hurley.

You have to give me a

better clue than that.

I k*lled a lot of people using that name.

What are you talking

about, using that name?

Oh, your games, Grim.

You know I use that

alias Benjamin Hurley.

It's why you keep bringing it up.

Used it until my cover was blown.

Agency faked my death.

Left the wife and kid.

New country, new identity.

So your wife and kid

thought you were dead?

Oh, yeah.

Only way to keep them safe.

Wait a minute.

Where was this?

Moscow.

I was born in Moscow.

[door opens, medics roll in gurny]

This guy's also a shitload of blood.

Who are the people in the bathroom?

I don't know.

What the hell happened here?

1-1-12.

We need a cleaner at the room.

We gotta get him to our hospital.

This one's going to be dicey.

Ready? Right.

Another day comes to an end

As the sun starts to set

Shadows stretch across the land

Time's slipping through our hands

In the fading light

We find a moment to unwind

As the world slows down

We'll paint the town

It's time for sunset

Let's seize the night

Underneath the stars

We'll ignite

Every beat of our hearts will run

Until break of dawn

Streetlights flicker

City glows in the twilight

Anything goes

We'll chase trades

We'll make memories in this moment

We're forever free

In the fading light

We find to unwind

In the fading light

We find a moment to unwind

Sitting on the porch swing

Creaking in the breeze

Nothing left to say, just memories

The story is old as time

When old man dies, the sun rise

Time for sunset

Time to say goodbye

My heart's bottom line broke those dry

When old man dies, another chapter turns

Another teardrop tries

In the morning sunrise

Remember the stories

Whispering in the night

The guys that are there

Remember the stories

Whispered in the night

The good guys and bad battles fall

Some you never had

Countless hand on my shoulder

Got me through the storm

Now it's my turn to face the world

Weather and w*r

Time for sunset

Time to say goodbye

My heart's bottom line broke those dry

When old man dies, another chapter turns

Another teardrop tries

In the morning sunrise

Don't fret, I won't

forget the lessons you gave

Kindness, the strength,

the courage to be brave

I'll carry your spirit

through the rest of my days

Guiding me through love's winding ways

Time for sunset

Time to say goodbye

My heart's bottom line broke those dry

When old man dies, another chapter turns

Another teardrop tries

When the sun stays slow, taking the day

With the love you have behind, we'll stay

Your words will never leave me

They will never fade away,

they'll go through our time

They will be with me till my dying day
