( Loud rock music playing )
Tanya.
Tanya.
Tanya!
( Moans )
( Moaning )
( Moaning )
( Screaming )
( Police radio chatter )
( Crying )
Rita:
Could you take her
for me, please, mark?
Thank you.
You get anything
out of her?
No, she’s still
hysterical.
Looks like she
was tied to the bed
and the second man
fell on top of her.
Yeah, look at this.
Can’t say the rich don’t know
how to party.
What do you think-- pro?
No, I think
she lived here.
Man:
Why hasn’t this mess
been cleaned up yet?
Who’s the superior officer here?
I’m Sergeant Lorenzo.
This is my partner,
Sergeant Lance.
Do you live here?
Yeah, I live here, I’m Calvin.
Mr. Calvin owns
a nightclub in New York.
Not mister, just Calvin,
and I own
several nightclubs in New York
and Miami.
You want to tell me
what happened here?
I was just beginning
to relax for the evening
and these two men broke
into my house.
And because you don’t like
being interrupted while relaxing
you blew them away.
It was self-defense, sergeant.
If that’s not
acceptable for you
find a way to keep
the scum off the street
in the first place.
I need a drink.
Mmm.
Can you say
"overconfident"?
Mmm.
So burglars waltz
into his bedroom carrying Uzis.
I don’t buy it.
So they knew him
and they wanted him dead.
Now all we got to do
is find out why.
Yeah.
I think I can
help you with that.
Actually it’s somebody else
who’s here to help you.
The DEA
Excuse me?
DEA’s got this thing
they call operation redrum.
They work with local cops
on drug-related homicides.
So that means...
That means they’re
going to be trampling
all over our case.
That’s great, cap.
That’s...that’s
just wonderful.
Why don’t you go outside
and introduce yourself?
( Growling )
Oh, man.
Would you wait up?
I don’t like this
any better than you do.
Well, why didn’t you
say anything in there?
I hate these guys.
They come in here
with their cocky attitudes
they grab the headlines
and they leave us
to clean up this whole mess.
All right, where is
this cardboard cowboy
with his thousand-dollar
attitude?
Man:
Now you’ve gone
and hurt my feelings, son.
Huh!
You son of a g*n.
How you been, man?
All right, man.
Chris:
Where the hell have you been?
New York.
Got a better class
of trash up there.
So I just dropped in
to grab your headlines
and leave you
to clean up the mess, of course.
This is the kind of bonehead
move I was talking about
that’s going to get you
k*lled someday.
I missed you, too.
Course, I missed you
a lot more.
Hi, Brent.
Oh, yeah.
Always the bridesmaid.
So...
What is a DEA
Hotshot like you
doing in our
small town?
Our pal inside-- Calvin?
Group eight’s
been dogging him for months.
He a player?
His nightclub business is slow,
so let’s just say
he supplements his lifestyle
with other business ventures.
I followed him here on a tip,
he’s planning a big score.
Big score that just went sour.
Maybe.
That’s what we’re
going to find out.
Ah... what do you mean
"we," kemosabe?
I mean we, the three of us,
like the old days.
It’s already been cleared
with the department.
With the three of us it makes
for a more controlled game.
Bad guys don’t stand a chance.
Ready to saddle up?
Hi-ho, silver.
Yeah!
( Grunting )
Oh, man.
That coffee maker hasn’t
been cleaned since I left.
What are you talking about?
This is the best...
Ah, so, I see.
I suppose the DEA Serves
Espresso and croissants.
On silver.
Yeah.
By lingerie models.
I got to tell you,
I miss this place.
What do you think--
you make the right choice?
Professionally, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Getting to put away
scum like Calvin,
it’s...
It’s like a religion
you know?
But personally,
well, that’s another story
because the three of us
we were like
the three musketeers.
I miss that.
Uh, and what about Rita?
That was the hardest part.
Leaving when we were
just getting close.
She seeing anybody?
Uh...
Well, let me think,
there’s one, two, Bob, Steve...
No, man.
Nobody like you.
Seeing her again has kind of...
It’s brought back
some old feelings.
I bet.
Hi.
Hi.
What?
I know that look
you were talking about me
behind my back.
No.
Yes, you were.
Is she always this paranoid?
No, we were
just talking
about the three musketeers
and how they carry
swords and no g*ns.
Not a musket between them.
So why are they called
the three musketeers?
You guys are pathetic-- here.
The two burglars Calvin k*lled?
Both were Colombians with ties
to the Cali drug cartel
and both had done time
in Atlanta.
Wow, you are quick as ever.
Well, thank you.
I’m going to call this in
to New York.
Okay.
Oh, hey, listen.
I’m still
doing dinner, right?
Yeah, right,
my place.
Right.
Right, okay.
Uh...
( Whistling )
( Whistling )
You guys were talking
about me, weren’t you?
Uh...
Get a grip,
sergeant.
Oh, man.
Ah...
Look, but don’t touch.
Look but don’t touch.
Yeah.
It actually looks like
you know what you’re doing.
Thank you.
Um... so,
what’s on the menu?
Pasta primavera.
Uh-huh.
Cappellini,
porcini mushrooms.
Zucchini, carrots
homemade basil sauce.
You and Chris
are going to love it.
You’re quite
the sophisticated bachelor
aren’t you?
Why, a single guy’s
got to survive.
Who says
he can’t enjoy it?
Oh, please, you’re
not going to get
any sympathy from me.
I bet your place
is just full of re
DEA Groupies.
No.
Yes.
No, no, no
Calvin’s nightclubs
are filled with groupies
and rich drug dealers.
A guy like me, on my salary
literally is home alone.
I find that very hard
to believe.
You do?
Yes.
And how about you?
Hmm?
How’s your social life?
Well, uh, it’s um...
It’s very exciting.
I come home every night
to a hot TV dinner.
Mmm.
Now, who’s hard
to believe, hmm?
( Knocking at door )
Uh...
Sorry, guys.
Hey, man,
you’re right on time.
But I can’t stay.
Uh, why?
Well, uh...
Something’s come up.
But I did bring
a bottle of vino.
What came up?
Oh...
Oh, stuff.
So, you...
Oh, before I leave.
I got some
new information
about the two
dead Colombians.
Turned out they worked for a guy
named El Nino Garza.
Crazy baby brother
of one of the heaviest
families in Mexico.
So Garza’s the connection
Calvin’s been playing with.
You think they’re
still playing?
Uh, maybe.
But they’re playing rough.
You two...
Play nice, got to go.
Whoa, whoa
what’s your hurry?
I cooked a great dinner.
I told you, something’s come up.
Stuff, right?
Stuff.
Yeah.
Stuff.
But what’s
a nice, romantic dinner
without candlelight?
Uh...
Bye.
Bye.
Bye-bye now.
If I didn’t know better
I’d swear he was
trying to set us up.
No.
Nah, you’re right,
you’re right.
I shouldn’t
be so suspicious.
It’s just a liability
of my profession.
Well, I think
you should learn
to trust people
a little more.
You’re right, after all,
he is my best friend.
Is he?
So I’m told.
Yeah?
Yeah.
( Loud rock music playing )
You bitch!
What the hell
did you do that for?
Sorry.
I guess after last night,
I’m in no mood for parties.
Heard you had a rough time
last night.
Where were you?
I was almost k*lled.
Relax,
you’re fine.
Anyway, they were
after Calvin.
And would have left me
as a witness?
What is going on?
That’s your job.
To find out.
Not anymore.
It’s too dangerous.
Relax, all right?
I’m going to
take care of you.
Cocaine is a dangerous game.
You didn’t mind playing it
before I busted you.
Yeah, well, people
weren’t getting k*lled.
At least I wasn’t.
I want out.
You don’t own me.
That’s where you’re wrong.
This game plays out
till the end.
That is our deal.
( Whimpering )
What?
( Sighs )
You have that "aw, shucks" look
on your face again.
I’d forgotten
how beautiful you are.
Aw.
( Laughs )
You really are a cowboy,
aren’t you?
Reckless,
chasing bad guys.
Driving off into the sunset.
I’m just like anybody else.
No.
I’ve heard the stories.
They say you’re
a crazy man.
( Chuckles )
Don’t believe
everything you hear.
( Chuckles )
Um, listen, I just...
I just want you to know
how much I’ve enjoyed
seeing you again.
I don’t know, I mean,
I guess it’s, um...
It’s part of the whole
mystery thing.
Mystery?
Yeah, you know,
the cowboy image
the crazy stories.
We’re at w*r, Rita.
Don’t ever forget that.
Tell me something.
How many of these yachts
belong to the bad guy,
the enemy?
I think it’s crappy
the good guys take
the risks
the bad guys get
the money.
So...
I do what it takes
to even the score.
We both know that money
does not buy happiness.
No, but it sure helps.
Yeah, it does.
It helps a lot.
Yeah.
( General conversation )
Women:
Go, go, go.
Enjoying yourself?
What is that
supposed to mean?
It’s just a girl’s way
of asking.
How do you think
I look?
You look fine.
( Shrieking happily )
Calvin!
Calvin.
Como estas, pendejo?
Manuel,
welcome to my home.
I’m a few hours late.
But I’m still running
on Garza time.
So, all this... for me?
For you.
A small gesture
compared to what
you’re accustomed to.
I’m not accustomed
to seeing anything
as lovely as this.
Tanya
my charming friend
Manuel Garza.
My friends call me El Nino,
"the baby."
Must be my innocent face.
Can I get you a drink?
Diet soda.
The girls insist
I look my best.
Calvin:
Can I get you
anything else?
So much beauty.
No need to share
your private girls.
Gracias, Bonita.
Sorry to
hear about
your trouble
last night.
I can take care of myself.
Claro.
Any idea who it was?
America’s a violent country.
Things happen.
Desafortunadamente.
Myself, I blame it
on television.
That’s not what we
came here to discuss.
How may I help you,
my friend?
I want Ki's,
and I want it fast.
That’s a lot of coke.
I have a lot of friends.
That’s also a lot of money.
Not a problem.
I’ll call you tonight
about terms and delivery.
Right now, enjoy yourself.
This is your party.
( Dialing phone )
It’s me.
I hope you enjoyed
your little party tonight.
That’s very kind of you.
What gave you
the impression
that Tanya’s
my wife?
I never would have
made the offer.
( Garza laughing on phone )
I want to set the deal.
Can you deliver
the Ki's tomorrow?
Manuel, I’m
a businessman.
I know the going rate.
Either you’re interested
or you’re not.
Good.
Tomorrow night
at :.
I’ll be there.
One more thing.
The assassins I took care of?
You remember them.
Who knows?
This could be
the beginning
of a beautiful
friendship.
( Phone beeps )
What are you doing?
Are you spying on me?
It was Garza, wasn’t it?
You offered me to him?
He didn’t want you.
Want to know something?
Neither do I.
Who are you?
Nobody.
I’ll tell you who you are.
You’re just a whore.
Maybe even a cop.
It’s the coke
getting to you, baby.
Let me make it better.
Maybe I should leave
until you get...
You’re not going anywhere.
I don’t trust you.
You’re late.
Something came up.
Don’t tell me
you blew it with him.
No more than usual.
Then what’s the problem?
Look at me.
He’s crazy.
Paranoid.
It’s getting worse.
Nobody said
it would be fun.
Stop the self-pity
and tell me
what you got.
It’s going down
with Garza tonight.
:, Ki's.
Where?
I don’t know.
You don’t know.
Brent, I tried.
He won’t trust anyone.
Especially me.
When he saw me
listening
he beat me.
He accused me
of being a cop.
I don’t care
if I go to jail
I can’t do this anymore.
You’re not
going to jail.
I’ll see to it.
I’ve been
too hard on you.
It’s my job
to be in danger
not yours.
You’ve done enough.
What about
Calvin and Garza?
I’ll find a way
to get the location.
That’s why I get
the big bucks.
Hey.
( Gasping )
Soft and slow,
old man.
I got your old man.
This $ watch
says you’re seconds
behind our time last year.
What does that
$ watch say?
Looking at you, I doubt
you’ll even make it.
Yeah? Watch me, son.
There’s a pay phone.
I’ll call the paramedics
for you.
You’ll need a quarter.
I’ll come back for it.
Look at that...
( Screaming )
I need an ambulance.
( Panting and groaning )
Oh, you just got lucky.
Let me see.
seconds better
than my best time.
You push, brother.
What are friends for?
I’m trying to bring
out the best in you.
You’re not mad at me,
are you?
I was just messing
with you.
No, man, it’s not that.
It’s you and Rita.
Here comes
the big brother.
I’ll still respect her
in the morning.
What is it with you, man?
Everything is a joke or a game.
This isn’t a game.
Look, I admit, I have
a history with women.
But this is different,
trust me.
I care about Rita, Brent.
I don’t want to see her
get hurt.
You think I’m putting
another notch in my g*n?
I don’t know, are you?
I care for Rita.
Believe that.
( Beeper going off )
Speaking of Rita.
Yeah?
We got more trouble.
Yeah.
Calvin’s friend Tanya’s dead.
She just washed up
with the tide.
What happened
here?
Some walkers found her
an hour ago.
She’d been shot.
She was
pretty badly
beat up.
M.E. Said the
bruises are older.
Probably
last night.
What’s the
connection
between baby Garza,
Calvin and this?
Brent?
All right.
I’ll tell you something.
Don’t take it
the wrong way.
You don’t want us to
take what the wrong way?
I knew Tanya.
You what?
She was my C.I.
On the case.
She was your
confidential informant?
Yeah.
I busted her a year ago.
I put her in with Calvin.
He must have
got hip
and tacked her.
Man...
We’re supposed
to be a team.
Why did you
hold out on us?
The DEA Works on
a need-to-know basis.
You two didn’t
need to know.
Don’t let us
get in your way.
Please, Rita.
I don’t make
the policy.
It’s an open
homicide case now
which is
your department.
Go to hell,
Brent.
I didn’t enjoy
leaving you
in the dark.
All you care about
is how a dead
informant
screwed up
your big score.
Chris:
Damn him.
Who might you be
talking about?
I’m talking about
your good friend, Brent.
So now
he’s my friend?
Lying, duplicitous
son of a...
( Slams coffeepot down )
Don’t worry about
hurting my feelings.
Tell me exactly
how you feel.
Both of you--
in my office now.
Sit!
Something wrong,
captain?
What did you call us
in here for?
Brent.
What’s all this bull
about this blowup
on the beach?
He was holding out
on us, captain.
He’s DEA-- He’s got rules.
What’s the problem?
He’s changed.
He’s a little too
hard and cool.
He’s not the same guy.
No.
Yeah, what?
I’m getting the same vibes.
It’s complicated.
Because you’re
personally involved.
I’m not blind--
not yet, anyway.
I’m keeping my personal and
professional feelings separate.
You’ll have to do
better than that.
What does that mean?
You’re all in bed together
on this thing.
You’re all
on the same side.
While this
Calvin character
is a murdering
dope dealer.
One of the bad guys, remember?
Now...
Are we together on this?
Yeah.
On one condition.
You tell him
to keep the hell out of my face
while we look
into this Tanya thing.
Same goes for me.
Okay.
( Doorbell rings )
Good morning,
Mr. Calvin.
So what is the problem now
sergeants?
Well, we were
hoping we could chat
for a bit.
I’m not in the mood.
Rita:
That’s a shame ’cause we
hoped you would be.
Chris:
Your friend Tanya’s dead.
Surprises the hell
out of you, doesn’t it?
She was found
on the beach--
body surfing
with a b*llet in her back.
Very interesting.
But you know what’s
even more interesting?
She was heavily bruised
from a beating
that she’d received
the night before.
Sorry to hear that.
I don’t suppose
a white-gloved guy like you
knows
about that?
No, I wouldn’t.
Eh, eh, eh...
Come on, gentlemen.
What the hell
are you guys doing?
You have no right
to be in my house.
Trust me,
it’s not a thrill.
But this warrant
gives us no choice.
I realize that, baker
but they’re ripping
the place apart right now.
I don’t care
if you are speeding.
You get your
overpriced legal ass here now!
Lawyers--
can’t live with ’em,
can’t sh**t ’em.
Oops.
Excuse me,
but do you have any idea
how much that thing costs?
Oh... more
than it’s worth?
How much was Tanya worth to you?
Less than what you were holding.
The world’s full
of pretty girls, sergeant.
Is that why you
felt free to beat
the crap out of her?
’cause she
was disposable?
Did I miss something,
but since when
is rough sex
a crime?
Besides it wasn’t
my idea, it was hers.
She demanded it.
Well, it’s
about damn time.
My lawyer, Mr. Baker.
Here you go,
Mr. Baker.
This says
you’re looking
for a nine
millimeter p*stol.
m*rder w*apon.
Did you find it?
No, we haven’t.
Then your work
is through here.
Rita:
One more question.
Where were you last night
between : and midnight?
With me--
and about other guests.
A charity benefit
for the children’s hospital.
What a kind-hearted guy you are.
Sweet, really.
Click, click,
you little bastard.
Gotcha.
( Cocks g*n )
How you
doing, Flaco?
Um, his name isn’t Flaco.
It means skinny.
It’s a joke.
I don’t get it.
Just shut up, will you?
What are you doing
back in the country, pal?
I’m on vacation.
Visiting friends.
My doctor says I need it,
for my nerves.
And would
one of those friends
happen to be
your old boss
baby Garza?
Oh, that Garza guy,
he really knows how to party.
Shut up, will you?
Well, my guess is you’re mixing
a little business with pleasure.
What do you know
about the Calvin deal?
What? I told you
I’m on vacation.
I’m taking her
to Disney world.
Well, you two won’t have
much fun in the magic kingdom
unless you tell me
what the hell’s
going down.
Does this mean et your place
we’re not going
to splash mountain?
Shut up.
Calvin’s yacht.
The Esperanza.
:
at the Marina.
Muchas gracias.
How the hell
did you get in here?
A burglar’s tool’s
a terrible thing to waste.
Look, I want you
out of my apartment now.
Look, I know I blew it.
But can’t we talk about it?
Oh, jeez...
I know what you
must think of me.
No, you don’t!
I came bearing gifts.
You just don’t get it, do you?
It’s not like I me
you broke a date
or something.
You broke Chris’s faith
in you as a friend.
And I suppose yours, too.
Oh..
No kidding.
Look, all I can say right now is
I’m sorry.
I screwed up, all right
but can’t you give me
a chance to explain
and make it up to you?
And Chris?
Will you, please?
I’m in trouble.
I need to talk
to someone.
This is...
This is hard for me.
Okay.
Yeah.
I’ve never cared
for anyone enough
to have
a lover’s spat before.
You think that’s
what this is about?
Isn’t it?
Would you
wake up, Brent?
It’s about friendship
and loyalty.
Trust.
You have changed.
You’ve become
one of them.
I’ve become one
of the bad guys?
No, one
of the bad good guys.
The self-centered
headline junkies.
The kind of...
The kind of jerk
that the three of us
always hated.
That’s not true.
Oh.
Rita,
you and Chris
are the most
important people
in the world to me.
Well, you could
have fooled me.
Rita, I have
feelings for you.
I do.
Hey.
Maybe that’s
the problem.
I’ve never let this
happen before.
Maybe it’s the job.
Too many feelings
at the same time...
I don’t know.
Maybe I’m just
a borderline burnout.
Sometimes
I wonder if...
If doing this job
and having a normal life
at the same time, it’s just...
It’s just impossible.
Yeah, well,
we’ve all been there.
It comes with the territory.
Would you at least...
Would you have dinner with me?
Please.
( Police radio chatter )
Man:
Never gets
any easier, does it?
If it does I guess
it’s time to get out.
How do you think
this went down?
Single k*ller,
nine millimeter, I guess.
Why is the DEA
Dragging me into this?
You and Sergeant Lance
are working
on that k*lling on the beach?
So?
That was
a nine millimeter, right?
I’m not good with riddles.
What’s
the connection?
The connection.
The driver of the Mercedes
is a guy some called Flaco.
He used to crew
with baby Garza
till he skipped the country
ahead of a federal warrant.
Why would he risk coming back?
He and his girlfriend
had reservations
at some hotel
in Orlando.
These aren’t till next week.
So maybe he was here
for business before pleasure.
How fast can you give me
a ballistics match
on those two
and on Tanya?
For you, amigo, faster
than a speeding b*llet.
Appreciate it.
Come on.
It says hit shift...
I hit shift, nothing happens.
Okay, okay.
Hmm.
Oh, I hate computers.
( Gasping )
What are you doing here
this time of night?
What am I doing...
Cap, what are you doing here?
I asked first.
Ahh...
I can’t for the life of me
get this computer
to give me the DEA Files
on those two sh**t
k*lled out
at Calvin’s house.
Maybe I can
save you the trouble.
Come on.
The DEA Files the DEA
Doesn’t want you to see.
You got to be kid--
where’d you get these?
I called in a favor.
Hey, I keep in touch
with my old buddies in New York.
The senile guys
from the old folks’ home?
Wait a min--
both sh**t were busted
by Brent in Miami?
Mm-hmm, his initial
DEA Assignment.
Both guys made
deals to avoid
serious jail time
and both became his C.I.S.
Both these guys
became Brent’s...
Just like Tanya.
That’s right.
Just like Tanya.
I thought
you’d find that interesting.
Yeah, Captain Lipschitz.
This is Edwardo...
Edwardo.
Edwardo Edwardo, DEA
So, did you hit pay dirt?
Ballistics "R" us.
Tanya and Flaco were
k*lled by the same nine.
What does Brent carry?
A nine.
( Telephone ringing )
Rita on answering machine:
Hi, I can’t talk right now...
But if you leave
your name and number
I will call you back.
"Rita called--
with Brent at lobster pool..."
I want to thank you
for coming with me.
I feel better.
How about you?
I guess... I guess
I’ve acted like a jerk.
You guess, huh?
Okay, okay.
Rita
I’m sorry
I let you down.
Chris should hear this, too.
Look, about us...
It’s a little new to me.
You see, I’ve always
lived my life
at arm’s length
from other people.
But it’s important to me
that you forgive me.
You see,
I want to start over
clean slate.
Oh, boy.
I’m always so on edge.
You know?
But you?
Not you, you’re always
in control-- how?
How do you do it?
One of the mysteries
of womanhood.
Ah.
You know everybody
needs somebody, Brent.
Maybe that somebody could be me.
Possibly.
You know, I, uh...
I think the first thing
you need is a rest.
Some time off
to get some perspective.
I’ve had a great time.
I don’t want it
to end.
Not yet.
How about a walk?
Want to take
a walk with me?
Sure.
Come on.
Hmm?
Brent:
It’s Calvin and Garza.
Deal’s going down now.
I’ll call for back-up.
There’s no time.
We hit them now
or lose them.
Rita:
Hold your horses, cowboy,
I’ll make that call.
The deal’s
going down now, Rita.
Brent!
This is crazy,
there’s too many of them.
You want out?
No.
Here’s what we do.
( Tires screeching )
( Laughing )
( Slurring: )
He doesn’t them now
look very happy.
No, he’s big.
Good evening.
Sorry,
private yacht.
Well, of course.
We didn’t think
it was
a smelly fishing boat
or anything.
No.
Oh, yeah, we’re here
to see Calvin.
He’s busy.
Oh.
I don’t think he’s
too busy to see the...
Together:
The Cochranes.
Why don’t
you just...
Pal, why don’t you
check that list you got there.
DEA, party’s over.
What the hell
are you doing?
Is this some kind
of a cheap rip-off?
We had an understanding.
You two are...
Give me the g*n now!
You son of a bitch.
Brent:
We were the g*n now!
In business together.
You’re going to help me
clean this mess up.
You’re going to k*ll everybody
and take the money?
Don’t forget the dr*gs.
You set this up?
I trusted you, hijo de puta!
You trusted me?
Before or after
you sent your apes
to k*ll me
and take my money?
Actually, I did that.
Rita:
So what do you plan
on doing with me?
You’ll die
a heroic, painless death
in the line of duty.
( g*nshots )
That was Brent, he got my g*n,
the killings, everything.
Don’t look
so damn disappointed.
What the hell
happened to you?
All right.
Yeah, I was
in business with Calvin.
But when I learned the DEA
Was moving in on him
I knew he would roll over on me,
so it was time to get out.
So you followed him down here.
You knew he was bringing
major bucks for a big player.
You hired the hitters
to k*ll him for the money.
It seemed like
a good idea at the time.
Till everybody got blown away.
Everything went sour,
and I had to scramble.
Don’t think
about it, Brent.
You know, Chris, this is one
of those no-win situations, man.
Somebody’s going
to get k*lled here.
Hell...
I’m already dead.
No!
Brent, no!
Chris:
I knew something like this
would happen to Brent
going down hard and fast.
I just thought it would be
in a Blaze of glory.
I guess he just
got caught up
in all that living
legend cowboy stuff.
Somehow he got lost
and slipped he just
over the line.
That’s because he never
had a partner like you.
He never had anybody
to hold on to.
When things got crazy,
there was nobody
there for him.
Well, thank you
for the sympathy.
You’re welcome
for the sympathy.
Brent was nothing
like you, though.
You have codes and
lines you won’t cross.
You’re a decent
and strong person.
And no partner can
give that to you, partner.
Thank you very much.
You’re welcome.
You know what’s
weird, though?
Hmm?
I can’t grieve for him,
he tried to k*ll you.
The only thing I feel
for Brent right now is hate.
Well, I guess
all we can do
is try to understand
how sick he was.
Maybe someday
we can forgive him.
No matter
where you are
no matter what you’re doing,
or how you’re doing it
I will always
be there for you.
I want you to know that.
I think if we keep
hanging on to each other
we’re not going
to drift very far.
Tanya.
Tanya.
Tanya!
( Moans )
( Moaning )
( Moaning )
( Screaming )
( Police radio chatter )
( Crying )
Rita:
Could you take her
for me, please, mark?
Thank you.
You get anything
out of her?
No, she’s still
hysterical.
Looks like she
was tied to the bed
and the second man
fell on top of her.
Yeah, look at this.
Can’t say the rich don’t know
how to party.
What do you think-- pro?
No, I think
she lived here.
Man:
Why hasn’t this mess
been cleaned up yet?
Who’s the superior officer here?
I’m Sergeant Lorenzo.
This is my partner,
Sergeant Lance.
Do you live here?
Yeah, I live here, I’m Calvin.
Mr. Calvin owns
a nightclub in New York.
Not mister, just Calvin,
and I own
several nightclubs in New York
and Miami.
You want to tell me
what happened here?
I was just beginning
to relax for the evening
and these two men broke
into my house.
And because you don’t like
being interrupted while relaxing
you blew them away.
It was self-defense, sergeant.
If that’s not
acceptable for you
find a way to keep
the scum off the street
in the first place.
I need a drink.
Mmm.
Can you say
"overconfident"?
Mmm.
So burglars waltz
into his bedroom carrying Uzis.
I don’t buy it.
So they knew him
and they wanted him dead.
Now all we got to do
is find out why.
Yeah.
I think I can
help you with that.
Actually it’s somebody else
who’s here to help you.
The DEA
Excuse me?
DEA’s got this thing
they call operation redrum.
They work with local cops
on drug-related homicides.
So that means...
That means they’re
going to be trampling
all over our case.
That’s great, cap.
That’s...that’s
just wonderful.
Why don’t you go outside
and introduce yourself?
( Growling )
Oh, man.
Would you wait up?
I don’t like this
any better than you do.
Well, why didn’t you
say anything in there?
I hate these guys.
They come in here
with their cocky attitudes
they grab the headlines
and they leave us
to clean up this whole mess.
All right, where is
this cardboard cowboy
with his thousand-dollar
attitude?
Man:
Now you’ve gone
and hurt my feelings, son.
Huh!
You son of a g*n.
How you been, man?
All right, man.
Chris:
Where the hell have you been?
New York.
Got a better class
of trash up there.
So I just dropped in
to grab your headlines
and leave you
to clean up the mess, of course.
This is the kind of bonehead
move I was talking about
that’s going to get you
k*lled someday.
I missed you, too.
Course, I missed you
a lot more.
Hi, Brent.
Oh, yeah.
Always the bridesmaid.
So...
What is a DEA
Hotshot like you
doing in our
small town?
Our pal inside-- Calvin?
Group eight’s
been dogging him for months.
He a player?
His nightclub business is slow,
so let’s just say
he supplements his lifestyle
with other business ventures.
I followed him here on a tip,
he’s planning a big score.
Big score that just went sour.
Maybe.
That’s what we’re
going to find out.
Ah... what do you mean
"we," kemosabe?
I mean we, the three of us,
like the old days.
It’s already been cleared
with the department.
With the three of us it makes
for a more controlled game.
Bad guys don’t stand a chance.
Ready to saddle up?
Hi-ho, silver.
Yeah!
( Grunting )
Oh, man.
That coffee maker hasn’t
been cleaned since I left.
What are you talking about?
This is the best...
Ah, so, I see.
I suppose the DEA Serves
Espresso and croissants.
On silver.
Yeah.
By lingerie models.
I got to tell you,
I miss this place.
What do you think--
you make the right choice?
Professionally, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Getting to put away
scum like Calvin,
it’s...
It’s like a religion
you know?
But personally,
well, that’s another story
because the three of us
we were like
the three musketeers.
I miss that.
Uh, and what about Rita?
That was the hardest part.
Leaving when we were
just getting close.
She seeing anybody?
Uh...
Well, let me think,
there’s one, two, Bob, Steve...
No, man.
Nobody like you.
Seeing her again has kind of...
It’s brought back
some old feelings.
I bet.
Hi.
Hi.
What?
I know that look
you were talking about me
behind my back.
No.
Yes, you were.
Is she always this paranoid?
No, we were
just talking
about the three musketeers
and how they carry
swords and no g*ns.
Not a musket between them.
So why are they called
the three musketeers?
You guys are pathetic-- here.
The two burglars Calvin k*lled?
Both were Colombians with ties
to the Cali drug cartel
and both had done time
in Atlanta.
Wow, you are quick as ever.
Well, thank you.
I’m going to call this in
to New York.
Okay.
Oh, hey, listen.
I’m still
doing dinner, right?
Yeah, right,
my place.
Right.
Right, okay.
Uh...
( Whistling )
( Whistling )
You guys were talking
about me, weren’t you?
Uh...
Get a grip,
sergeant.
Oh, man.
Ah...
Look, but don’t touch.
Look but don’t touch.
Yeah.
It actually looks like
you know what you’re doing.
Thank you.
Um... so,
what’s on the menu?
Pasta primavera.
Uh-huh.
Cappellini,
porcini mushrooms.
Zucchini, carrots
homemade basil sauce.
You and Chris
are going to love it.
You’re quite
the sophisticated bachelor
aren’t you?
Why, a single guy’s
got to survive.
Who says
he can’t enjoy it?
Oh, please, you’re
not going to get
any sympathy from me.
I bet your place
is just full of re
DEA Groupies.
No.
Yes.
No, no, no
Calvin’s nightclubs
are filled with groupies
and rich drug dealers.
A guy like me, on my salary
literally is home alone.
I find that very hard
to believe.
You do?
Yes.
And how about you?
Hmm?
How’s your social life?
Well, uh, it’s um...
It’s very exciting.
I come home every night
to a hot TV dinner.
Mmm.
Now, who’s hard
to believe, hmm?
( Knocking at door )
Uh...
Sorry, guys.
Hey, man,
you’re right on time.
But I can’t stay.
Uh, why?
Well, uh...
Something’s come up.
But I did bring
a bottle of vino.
What came up?
Oh...
Oh, stuff.
So, you...
Oh, before I leave.
I got some
new information
about the two
dead Colombians.
Turned out they worked for a guy
named El Nino Garza.
Crazy baby brother
of one of the heaviest
families in Mexico.
So Garza’s the connection
Calvin’s been playing with.
You think they’re
still playing?
Uh, maybe.
But they’re playing rough.
You two...
Play nice, got to go.
Whoa, whoa
what’s your hurry?
I cooked a great dinner.
I told you, something’s come up.
Stuff, right?
Stuff.
Yeah.
Stuff.
But what’s
a nice, romantic dinner
without candlelight?
Uh...
Bye.
Bye.
Bye-bye now.
If I didn’t know better
I’d swear he was
trying to set us up.
No.
Nah, you’re right,
you’re right.
I shouldn’t
be so suspicious.
It’s just a liability
of my profession.
Well, I think
you should learn
to trust people
a little more.
You’re right, after all,
he is my best friend.
Is he?
So I’m told.
Yeah?
Yeah.
( Loud rock music playing )
You bitch!
What the hell
did you do that for?
Sorry.
I guess after last night,
I’m in no mood for parties.
Heard you had a rough time
last night.
Where were you?
I was almost k*lled.
Relax,
you’re fine.
Anyway, they were
after Calvin.
And would have left me
as a witness?
What is going on?
That’s your job.
To find out.
Not anymore.
It’s too dangerous.
Relax, all right?
I’m going to
take care of you.
Cocaine is a dangerous game.
You didn’t mind playing it
before I busted you.
Yeah, well, people
weren’t getting k*lled.
At least I wasn’t.
I want out.
You don’t own me.
That’s where you’re wrong.
This game plays out
till the end.
That is our deal.
( Whimpering )
What?
( Sighs )
You have that "aw, shucks" look
on your face again.
I’d forgotten
how beautiful you are.
Aw.
( Laughs )
You really are a cowboy,
aren’t you?
Reckless,
chasing bad guys.
Driving off into the sunset.
I’m just like anybody else.
No.
I’ve heard the stories.
They say you’re
a crazy man.
( Chuckles )
Don’t believe
everything you hear.
( Chuckles )
Um, listen, I just...
I just want you to know
how much I’ve enjoyed
seeing you again.
I don’t know, I mean,
I guess it’s, um...
It’s part of the whole
mystery thing.
Mystery?
Yeah, you know,
the cowboy image
the crazy stories.
We’re at w*r, Rita.
Don’t ever forget that.
Tell me something.
How many of these yachts
belong to the bad guy,
the enemy?
I think it’s crappy
the good guys take
the risks
the bad guys get
the money.
So...
I do what it takes
to even the score.
We both know that money
does not buy happiness.
No, but it sure helps.
Yeah, it does.
It helps a lot.
Yeah.
( General conversation )
Women:
Go, go, go.
Enjoying yourself?
What is that
supposed to mean?
It’s just a girl’s way
of asking.
How do you think
I look?
You look fine.
( Shrieking happily )
Calvin!
Calvin.
Como estas, pendejo?
Manuel,
welcome to my home.
I’m a few hours late.
But I’m still running
on Garza time.
So, all this... for me?
For you.
A small gesture
compared to what
you’re accustomed to.
I’m not accustomed
to seeing anything
as lovely as this.
Tanya
my charming friend
Manuel Garza.
My friends call me El Nino,
"the baby."
Must be my innocent face.
Can I get you a drink?
Diet soda.
The girls insist
I look my best.
Calvin:
Can I get you
anything else?
So much beauty.
No need to share
your private girls.
Gracias, Bonita.
Sorry to
hear about
your trouble
last night.
I can take care of myself.
Claro.
Any idea who it was?
America’s a violent country.
Things happen.
Desafortunadamente.
Myself, I blame it
on television.
That’s not what we
came here to discuss.
How may I help you,
my friend?
I want Ki's,
and I want it fast.
That’s a lot of coke.
I have a lot of friends.
That’s also a lot of money.
Not a problem.
I’ll call you tonight
about terms and delivery.
Right now, enjoy yourself.
This is your party.
( Dialing phone )
It’s me.
I hope you enjoyed
your little party tonight.
That’s very kind of you.
What gave you
the impression
that Tanya’s
my wife?
I never would have
made the offer.
( Garza laughing on phone )
I want to set the deal.
Can you deliver
the Ki's tomorrow?
Manuel, I’m
a businessman.
I know the going rate.
Either you’re interested
or you’re not.
Good.
Tomorrow night
at :.
I’ll be there.
One more thing.
The assassins I took care of?
You remember them.
Who knows?
This could be
the beginning
of a beautiful
friendship.
( Phone beeps )
What are you doing?
Are you spying on me?
It was Garza, wasn’t it?
You offered me to him?
He didn’t want you.
Want to know something?
Neither do I.
Who are you?
Nobody.
I’ll tell you who you are.
You’re just a whore.
Maybe even a cop.
It’s the coke
getting to you, baby.
Let me make it better.
Maybe I should leave
until you get...
You’re not going anywhere.
I don’t trust you.
You’re late.
Something came up.
Don’t tell me
you blew it with him.
No more than usual.
Then what’s the problem?
Look at me.
He’s crazy.
Paranoid.
It’s getting worse.
Nobody said
it would be fun.
Stop the self-pity
and tell me
what you got.
It’s going down
with Garza tonight.
:, Ki's.
Where?
I don’t know.
You don’t know.
Brent, I tried.
He won’t trust anyone.
Especially me.
When he saw me
listening
he beat me.
He accused me
of being a cop.
I don’t care
if I go to jail
I can’t do this anymore.
You’re not
going to jail.
I’ll see to it.
I’ve been
too hard on you.
It’s my job
to be in danger
not yours.
You’ve done enough.
What about
Calvin and Garza?
I’ll find a way
to get the location.
That’s why I get
the big bucks.
Hey.
( Gasping )
Soft and slow,
old man.
I got your old man.
This $ watch
says you’re seconds
behind our time last year.
What does that
$ watch say?
Looking at you, I doubt
you’ll even make it.
Yeah? Watch me, son.
There’s a pay phone.
I’ll call the paramedics
for you.
You’ll need a quarter.
I’ll come back for it.
Look at that...
( Screaming )
I need an ambulance.
( Panting and groaning )
Oh, you just got lucky.
Let me see.
seconds better
than my best time.
You push, brother.
What are friends for?
I’m trying to bring
out the best in you.
You’re not mad at me,
are you?
I was just messing
with you.
No, man, it’s not that.
It’s you and Rita.
Here comes
the big brother.
I’ll still respect her
in the morning.
What is it with you, man?
Everything is a joke or a game.
This isn’t a game.
Look, I admit, I have
a history with women.
But this is different,
trust me.
I care about Rita, Brent.
I don’t want to see her
get hurt.
You think I’m putting
another notch in my g*n?
I don’t know, are you?
I care for Rita.
Believe that.
( Beeper going off )
Speaking of Rita.
Yeah?
We got more trouble.
Yeah.
Calvin’s friend Tanya’s dead.
She just washed up
with the tide.
What happened
here?
Some walkers found her
an hour ago.
She’d been shot.
She was
pretty badly
beat up.
M.E. Said the
bruises are older.
Probably
last night.
What’s the
connection
between baby Garza,
Calvin and this?
Brent?
All right.
I’ll tell you something.
Don’t take it
the wrong way.
You don’t want us to
take what the wrong way?
I knew Tanya.
You what?
She was my C.I.
On the case.
She was your
confidential informant?
Yeah.
I busted her a year ago.
I put her in with Calvin.
He must have
got hip
and tacked her.
Man...
We’re supposed
to be a team.
Why did you
hold out on us?
The DEA Works on
a need-to-know basis.
You two didn’t
need to know.
Don’t let us
get in your way.
Please, Rita.
I don’t make
the policy.
It’s an open
homicide case now
which is
your department.
Go to hell,
Brent.
I didn’t enjoy
leaving you
in the dark.
All you care about
is how a dead
informant
screwed up
your big score.
Chris:
Damn him.
Who might you be
talking about?
I’m talking about
your good friend, Brent.
So now
he’s my friend?
Lying, duplicitous
son of a...
( Slams coffeepot down )
Don’t worry about
hurting my feelings.
Tell me exactly
how you feel.
Both of you--
in my office now.
Sit!
Something wrong,
captain?
What did you call us
in here for?
Brent.
What’s all this bull
about this blowup
on the beach?
He was holding out
on us, captain.
He’s DEA-- He’s got rules.
What’s the problem?
He’s changed.
He’s a little too
hard and cool.
He’s not the same guy.
No.
Yeah, what?
I’m getting the same vibes.
It’s complicated.
Because you’re
personally involved.
I’m not blind--
not yet, anyway.
I’m keeping my personal and
professional feelings separate.
You’ll have to do
better than that.
What does that mean?
You’re all in bed together
on this thing.
You’re all
on the same side.
While this
Calvin character
is a murdering
dope dealer.
One of the bad guys, remember?
Now...
Are we together on this?
Yeah.
On one condition.
You tell him
to keep the hell out of my face
while we look
into this Tanya thing.
Same goes for me.
Okay.
( Doorbell rings )
Good morning,
Mr. Calvin.
So what is the problem now
sergeants?
Well, we were
hoping we could chat
for a bit.
I’m not in the mood.
Rita:
That’s a shame ’cause we
hoped you would be.
Chris:
Your friend Tanya’s dead.
Surprises the hell
out of you, doesn’t it?
She was found
on the beach--
body surfing
with a b*llet in her back.
Very interesting.
But you know what’s
even more interesting?
She was heavily bruised
from a beating
that she’d received
the night before.
Sorry to hear that.
I don’t suppose
a white-gloved guy like you
knows
about that?
No, I wouldn’t.
Eh, eh, eh...
Come on, gentlemen.
What the hell
are you guys doing?
You have no right
to be in my house.
Trust me,
it’s not a thrill.
But this warrant
gives us no choice.
I realize that, baker
but they’re ripping
the place apart right now.
I don’t care
if you are speeding.
You get your
overpriced legal ass here now!
Lawyers--
can’t live with ’em,
can’t sh**t ’em.
Oops.
Excuse me,
but do you have any idea
how much that thing costs?
Oh... more
than it’s worth?
How much was Tanya worth to you?
Less than what you were holding.
The world’s full
of pretty girls, sergeant.
Is that why you
felt free to beat
the crap out of her?
’cause she
was disposable?
Did I miss something,
but since when
is rough sex
a crime?
Besides it wasn’t
my idea, it was hers.
She demanded it.
Well, it’s
about damn time.
My lawyer, Mr. Baker.
Here you go,
Mr. Baker.
This says
you’re looking
for a nine
millimeter p*stol.
m*rder w*apon.
Did you find it?
No, we haven’t.
Then your work
is through here.
Rita:
One more question.
Where were you last night
between : and midnight?
With me--
and about other guests.
A charity benefit
for the children’s hospital.
What a kind-hearted guy you are.
Sweet, really.
Click, click,
you little bastard.
Gotcha.
( Cocks g*n )
How you
doing, Flaco?
Um, his name isn’t Flaco.
It means skinny.
It’s a joke.
I don’t get it.
Just shut up, will you?
What are you doing
back in the country, pal?
I’m on vacation.
Visiting friends.
My doctor says I need it,
for my nerves.
And would
one of those friends
happen to be
your old boss
baby Garza?
Oh, that Garza guy,
he really knows how to party.
Shut up, will you?
Well, my guess is you’re mixing
a little business with pleasure.
What do you know
about the Calvin deal?
What? I told you
I’m on vacation.
I’m taking her
to Disney world.
Well, you two won’t have
much fun in the magic kingdom
unless you tell me
what the hell’s
going down.
Does this mean et your place
we’re not going
to splash mountain?
Shut up.
Calvin’s yacht.
The Esperanza.
:
at the Marina.
Muchas gracias.
How the hell
did you get in here?
A burglar’s tool’s
a terrible thing to waste.
Look, I want you
out of my apartment now.
Look, I know I blew it.
But can’t we talk about it?
Oh, jeez...
I know what you
must think of me.
No, you don’t!
I came bearing gifts.
You just don’t get it, do you?
It’s not like I me
you broke a date
or something.
You broke Chris’s faith
in you as a friend.
And I suppose yours, too.
Oh..
No kidding.
Look, all I can say right now is
I’m sorry.
I screwed up, all right
but can’t you give me
a chance to explain
and make it up to you?
And Chris?
Will you, please?
I’m in trouble.
I need to talk
to someone.
This is...
This is hard for me.
Okay.
Yeah.
I’ve never cared
for anyone enough
to have
a lover’s spat before.
You think that’s
what this is about?
Isn’t it?
Would you
wake up, Brent?
It’s about friendship
and loyalty.
Trust.
You have changed.
You’ve become
one of them.
I’ve become one
of the bad guys?
No, one
of the bad good guys.
The self-centered
headline junkies.
The kind of...
The kind of jerk
that the three of us
always hated.
That’s not true.
Oh.
Rita,
you and Chris
are the most
important people
in the world to me.
Well, you could
have fooled me.
Rita, I have
feelings for you.
I do.
Hey.
Maybe that’s
the problem.
I’ve never let this
happen before.
Maybe it’s the job.
Too many feelings
at the same time...
I don’t know.
Maybe I’m just
a borderline burnout.
Sometimes
I wonder if...
If doing this job
and having a normal life
at the same time, it’s just...
It’s just impossible.
Yeah, well,
we’ve all been there.
It comes with the territory.
Would you at least...
Would you have dinner with me?
Please.
( Police radio chatter )
Man:
Never gets
any easier, does it?
If it does I guess
it’s time to get out.
How do you think
this went down?
Single k*ller,
nine millimeter, I guess.
Why is the DEA
Dragging me into this?
You and Sergeant Lance
are working
on that k*lling on the beach?
So?
That was
a nine millimeter, right?
I’m not good with riddles.
What’s
the connection?
The connection.
The driver of the Mercedes
is a guy some called Flaco.
He used to crew
with baby Garza
till he skipped the country
ahead of a federal warrant.
Why would he risk coming back?
He and his girlfriend
had reservations
at some hotel
in Orlando.
These aren’t till next week.
So maybe he was here
for business before pleasure.
How fast can you give me
a ballistics match
on those two
and on Tanya?
For you, amigo, faster
than a speeding b*llet.
Appreciate it.
Come on.
It says hit shift...
I hit shift, nothing happens.
Okay, okay.
Hmm.
Oh, I hate computers.
( Gasping )
What are you doing here
this time of night?
What am I doing...
Cap, what are you doing here?
I asked first.
Ahh...
I can’t for the life of me
get this computer
to give me the DEA Files
on those two sh**t
k*lled out
at Calvin’s house.
Maybe I can
save you the trouble.
Come on.
The DEA Files the DEA
Doesn’t want you to see.
You got to be kid--
where’d you get these?
I called in a favor.
Hey, I keep in touch
with my old buddies in New York.
The senile guys
from the old folks’ home?
Wait a min--
both sh**t were busted
by Brent in Miami?
Mm-hmm, his initial
DEA Assignment.
Both guys made
deals to avoid
serious jail time
and both became his C.I.S.
Both these guys
became Brent’s...
Just like Tanya.
That’s right.
Just like Tanya.
I thought
you’d find that interesting.
Yeah, Captain Lipschitz.
This is Edwardo...
Edwardo.
Edwardo Edwardo, DEA
So, did you hit pay dirt?
Ballistics "R" us.
Tanya and Flaco were
k*lled by the same nine.
What does Brent carry?
A nine.
( Telephone ringing )
Rita on answering machine:
Hi, I can’t talk right now...
But if you leave
your name and number
I will call you back.
"Rita called--
with Brent at lobster pool..."
I want to thank you
for coming with me.
I feel better.
How about you?
I guess... I guess
I’ve acted like a jerk.
You guess, huh?
Okay, okay.
Rita
I’m sorry
I let you down.
Chris should hear this, too.
Look, about us...
It’s a little new to me.
You see, I’ve always
lived my life
at arm’s length
from other people.
But it’s important to me
that you forgive me.
You see,
I want to start over
clean slate.
Oh, boy.
I’m always so on edge.
You know?
But you?
Not you, you’re always
in control-- how?
How do you do it?
One of the mysteries
of womanhood.
Ah.
You know everybody
needs somebody, Brent.
Maybe that somebody could be me.
Possibly.
You know, I, uh...
I think the first thing
you need is a rest.
Some time off
to get some perspective.
I’ve had a great time.
I don’t want it
to end.
Not yet.
How about a walk?
Want to take
a walk with me?
Sure.
Come on.
Hmm?
Brent:
It’s Calvin and Garza.
Deal’s going down now.
I’ll call for back-up.
There’s no time.
We hit them now
or lose them.
Rita:
Hold your horses, cowboy,
I’ll make that call.
The deal’s
going down now, Rita.
Brent!
This is crazy,
there’s too many of them.
You want out?
No.
Here’s what we do.
( Tires screeching )
( Laughing )
( Slurring: )
He doesn’t them now
look very happy.
No, he’s big.
Good evening.
Sorry,
private yacht.
Well, of course.
We didn’t think
it was
a smelly fishing boat
or anything.
No.
Oh, yeah, we’re here
to see Calvin.
He’s busy.
Oh.
I don’t think he’s
too busy to see the...
Together:
The Cochranes.
Why don’t
you just...
Pal, why don’t you
check that list you got there.
DEA, party’s over.
What the hell
are you doing?
Is this some kind
of a cheap rip-off?
We had an understanding.
You two are...
Give me the g*n now!
You son of a bitch.
Brent:
We were the g*n now!
In business together.
You’re going to help me
clean this mess up.
You’re going to k*ll everybody
and take the money?
Don’t forget the dr*gs.
You set this up?
I trusted you, hijo de puta!
You trusted me?
Before or after
you sent your apes
to k*ll me
and take my money?
Actually, I did that.
Rita:
So what do you plan
on doing with me?
You’ll die
a heroic, painless death
in the line of duty.
( g*nshots )
That was Brent, he got my g*n,
the killings, everything.
Don’t look
so damn disappointed.
What the hell
happened to you?
All right.
Yeah, I was
in business with Calvin.
But when I learned the DEA
Was moving in on him
I knew he would roll over on me,
so it was time to get out.
So you followed him down here.
You knew he was bringing
major bucks for a big player.
You hired the hitters
to k*ll him for the money.
It seemed like
a good idea at the time.
Till everybody got blown away.
Everything went sour,
and I had to scramble.
Don’t think
about it, Brent.
You know, Chris, this is one
of those no-win situations, man.
Somebody’s going
to get k*lled here.
Hell...
I’m already dead.
No!
Brent, no!
Chris:
I knew something like this
would happen to Brent
going down hard and fast.
I just thought it would be
in a Blaze of glory.
I guess he just
got caught up
in all that living
legend cowboy stuff.
Somehow he got lost
and slipped he just
over the line.
That’s because he never
had a partner like you.
He never had anybody
to hold on to.
When things got crazy,
there was nobody
there for him.
Well, thank you
for the sympathy.
You’re welcome
for the sympathy.
Brent was nothing
like you, though.
You have codes and
lines you won’t cross.
You’re a decent
and strong person.
And no partner can
give that to you, partner.
Thank you very much.
You’re welcome.
You know what’s
weird, though?
Hmm?
I can’t grieve for him,
he tried to k*ll you.
The only thing I feel
for Brent right now is hate.
Well, I guess
all we can do
is try to understand
how sick he was.
Maybe someday
we can forgive him.
No matter
where you are
no matter what you’re doing,
or how you’re doing it
I will always
be there for you.
I want you to know that.
I think if we keep
hanging on to each other
we’re not going
to drift very far.
