It's me.

I'm free.

Hey, buddy, how's it going?

Hey, Eddie, thanks for coming by and getting me, man. I really appreciate it.

Five years, man.

It was just yesterday we were having all that fun in that bank.

You and that shithole, it's more like eternity, believe me.

Well, welcome back, Marco.

We all missed you, man.

You know, life's just been four without you.

How's my sister?

Well, I tried to give her a call and tell her the news, but her line's been

busy. And my mom?

Well, I thought we'd surprise her.

Are you going to stay with her?

We'll have to see. Okay. Well, you can stay with me if you want, but it's kind

of small, though. You know, it's just one room.

It's probably a palace compared to the last place I was in.

Probably, man.

Hey, what do you say we party the rest of our lives, okay?

Yeah, absolutely, man. One long blast.

I did your horoscope, Marco.

Oh, when do I die?

Don't be silly. You're going to get very old.

Please 94 Lord have mercy Get rich.

Oh, yeah real soon.

Oh And how am I gonna get rich?

Well, the stars didn't tell me that darling But we're a very talented man.

You'll figure that out Okay Good

job don't have a time

Be patient, Marco.

You're just starting all over, that's all.

It's always slow in the beginning.

You'll be a success. I know you will.

Where are you staying?

You always have a bed here, you know.

I don't know. I guess I'll stay with Eddie for a while.

Look, I didn't adopt you and spend all those years raising you to have you hang

out with a bum like that.

Don't worry.

I'll get it straight this time.

Which I always say.

Rinks has been calling.

Oh, yeah?

Somebody told him you were going to be out.

Hey, did you talk to Rinks?

Me?

Why would I call Rinks?

That guy's bad news as far as I'm concerned.

And on the link?

In the beginning, I wanted revenge, but

bad.

After a couple years, I just said, well, hell, fuck it.

He should have spent time with you, Markel.

I mean, after all, he was the one who arranged the whole thing. Who got you

it. We've been through this before.

What I need is a decent job.

Forget about rings.

Yeah, fuck them.

We don't need them.

know where Marco is.

I didn't even know he was out of prison. As far as I'm concerned... Yeah, yeah,

yeah.

He's been out of prison for two days. You trying to tell me he hasn't come by

see his mom?

That sounds strange to me. What do you think, Rocco?

Well, a man is known by the company he avoids.

Listen, you tell him he's making a big mistake.

Here's my new number.

You tell him to give me a call.

I'm his friend.

And he can't have too many friends now, can he?

Unless he meets them while he was in prison.

And you don't want him to have those kind of friends now, do you?

I'll tell him.

Oh, one more thing.

I don't like people who lie to me.

You understand?

Rocco?

Gentlemen, let me introduce you to our new man. He's been covering the Chicago

turf for quite a while now, and he comes highly recommended.

He's going to be in charge of cases like Joseph Rinks and company, and he goes

by the elegant name of Trudeau.

He represents a new breed, I was told, the future of law enforcement.

A man who will play with your mind rather than use your standard John Wayne

routine, at least according to this report.

Send him in.

Hi, Guy.

Well, you are a new breed.

Let me make a couple of quick intros. Excuse me, Mr. Madison.

Yes. I kind of sort of made up my mind already.

Oh?

Well, I mean, I'm here to pick my new sidekick, right?

Your new sidekick?

Yeah, or assistant, or, you know, whatever you call him. So?

Well, I'm going to take the guy here with the baby face.

Well, that's Barsky. Leonard Barsky. I mean, he's brand new in the Bureau.

Hi, Barsky.

Oh, sir.

Why don't you have a look at all their files before you make up your mind? I

mean, they're all fine men, and they certainly deserve a fair shake.

Well, sir, if you don't mind, I already kind of got my mind set.

Plus, I can't read too well, and unless you got a couple of videos on each of

these guys... Videos?

Yeah, videos.

All right.

Barsky? Sir? Your new boss.

Barsky, you got a driver's license?

Yes, sir.

Good, because I don't drive.

What do you do, if I may ask, Trudeau? I mean, what is your specialty?

I have no attachments. I'm a free man.

I have a lot of patience, nothing to lose.

I hate sex and drugs, but I'm always high.

In short, you can say I'm a very happy man.

Certainly an example to follow, Varsky.

Yes, sir.

All right, that's it. Now what?

Just wait for me.

Trudeau.

Trudeau! What?

Why'd you choose me?

Well, you don't know anything about me.

I like your face.

Gee, thanks.

But just don't make me get into a detailed situation about it right now.

Chill out. Hang in there.

You got it.

Just wait for me.

Danelli. Marco Danelli.

What's up?

I just thought we might have a little chit -chat in private.

I don't understand. Who are you? What do you want?

You know, excuse me for being so damn rude.

There's my visa.

Union 76, Robinsons, and there's my badge.

Oh,

hey, Marco, I got another joke for you.

Ever hear of a guy named Joe Rink?

Oh, come on, Marco.

Uncle Joe?

If you don't mind, mister, I'm trying to have a good time.

As far as I remember, no.

The name Joe Rink doesn't ring a bell.

Not anymore.

You know, word's out that you're a very, very desperate man.

Vulnerable, so to speak.

Oh, yeah?

Who told you that?

Instinct.

Look, buddy, I'm going to let you get your ass out of here real fast. I'm

to remember a famous instinct myself known around here as the killer

Looks like the beginning of a beautiful relationship.

Look, asshole.

Thanks, Eddie.

protection and decent pay.

You're funny.

Real funny.

I'm a cousin twice removed from Buster Keaton. Oh, that explains it.

Come on, Marco.

Forget that old image of the FBI.

Those days are long gone.

Times have changed.

Wake up and smell the coffee, will you?

You're playing the fucking fall guy, and you know it.

You've spent six years in the fucking can for that asshole. What are you going

to do about it, huh?

Come on, man, wake up.

Be a man.

Testify against ranks for me.

All right, you're a fun guy too, though, and you've tried it all on me.

But it ain't going to work, you understand?

I can be a man without all that macho crap like revenge and stuff.

I'm through with rinks.

It's over.

It's in the past.

It's gone.

You're tired, boy.

You need sleep.

Maybe it's just bad timing.

Tell you what I'm going to do.

I'm going to give you my phone number, and I don't give a...

In fact, I'll give you my beeper number.

Call me day or night.

You know, as a matter of fact, I can get you a beeper. I'll throw it in on the

deal.

And how about that old Cutlass Suprema?

Okay, okay. How about a Corvette?

Black leather interior, tinted windows, $350.

Why me?

Why Joe Rinks?

Because he's on my list.

He's a criminal in a dirt bag and I don't like him.

He's responsible for a lot of shit.

And I don't like his face either.

Ultimately, everything's personal.

Right?

What about my face?

I like your face.

You're just on the wrong side.

Marco Marco, you're wasting your talent.

It's time to switch sides, man.

Boom, bang, pow.

Imitates life, imitates art.

Hey, maybe next time.

Marco, Marco, Marco.

This is worse than begging for pussy.

How can you do this to me?

You're fantastic, Trudeau.

What a talent.

It's too bad it's all wasted.

Hey, did you ever think about switching sides?

You'll come around.

And I'll be there.

And remember, I'll be watching.

It's a perfect plan, guys.

I have been working on this for almost a year now.

I thought you hadn't talked to Reese.

Look, we're just using him, right?

He's going to get screwed in the end, right?

And we're going to get all the money, right?

And she's cool.

A hundred percent.

How do you know?

Because it's a better deal for her.

She's going to get more money this way.

Right?

Don't bring her in.

Right.

This is Sam.

Hi, Sam.

Hi. Marco.

Sister Kelly.

Have a seat.

So tell us.

What do you want to know?

Everything.

Well, I'm a teller at the bank.

I met Mr. Rinks last April at a party, and ever since then, him and his people

have been trying to convince me that they have a perfect plan, you know, to

bank.

If I cooperate, then they'll pay me.

And that's when I met Eddie.

He came up with a really good plan.

And as far as I'm concerned, it's great.

How do we know you're not a phony?

That's your problem.

Sorry.

I'm totally against what you're doing.

100%. I don't think you're going to end up in prison again.

It's your life.

It's your decision.

And I can see that nothing in the world is going to change your mind.

Well, I'm really sorry we disagree again.

I wish I had your support.

I really do.

I got news for you, pal.

You gonna tell Rinks?

No.

You gonna go to the police?

Nope.

You gonna call Trudeau?

Are you kidding?

Guess what? What?

I'm gonna back you.

One hundred percent.

You are?

All the way.

I'll even arrange for a getaway car.

Drive it myself.

So let's forget about all that emotional crap.

I'm only here for business.

Okay, Rocco, let's go for a walk.

No hard feelings?

Past the past.

That's what I like to hear.

I didn't mean for you to get hurt.

Mistakes happen.

What can I say?

What can I say? Because when you want a job done, you go to Marco Dinelli.

And this time...

Nobody loses.

This time, we got all the bases covered.

Except for one.

That girl?

The teller?

Sammy? She's cute. You like her.

But I'm afraid we're gonna have to lose her.

She's soft. She's too soft.

She's gonna talk.

And that worries me.

Well, we'll kill her.

That's the Marco Dinelli I like.

I'm sure glad you came around.

If you can't, you must, right?

It's very dramatic, Rocco.

Thank you.

I think so.

One. Ooh.

Look at that.

I think I want that. Hey, keep in mind your business.

Don't get us in trouble.

I'm going to go away for a while.

You look nervous, Marco.

What's wrong?

Nothing. I'm all right, I swear.

Where are you going?

I need a job. There's nothing around here.

Anything specific?

I'll call you.

It's the money you need. I've got maybe $500.

I'm a grown man. I don't want your money.

Remember that horoscope that you made for me? Said I'm going to get rich?

I will.

I'm going to miss you.

Good luck.

When I come back, I'll have lots of money for both of us.

Don't make any... Never.

I love you.

Good to see you this morning. Good to see you.

Ladies and gentlemen, this is a bank robbery.

Don't anybody get nervous. Don't anybody move.

You, move down there. Good morning, sir.

Yes, sir. I would like to make a withdrawal.

You, move. You, move down there. You, over the counter with the money. Keep

cool. Shut up!

Come on. Come on. Come on. Come on. Come on.

Go!

Come here. Don't move!

You just shut the fuck -

Hold on tight, Eddie.

Suspect now heading south for 605. Need support.

Coming, Eddie.

Nice for a change.

You guys must be a couple of amateurs.

Absolute beginners.

Is this some kind of joke or what?

Hey, Marco.

What do you say we teach this little bitch a lesson in a new school?

Get that stupid gun out of my face.

You piece of shit.

Right.

Get

out

of here, damn it.

This is getting out of hand.

How about some support?

Is anybody listening?

This is

Varsky calling HQ Long Beach. Can you hear me?

What's wrong, Varsky? What are you getting so upset about?

Why are you crying again?

Now listen, I told you I would murder you if I saw one more tear on your face.

What do you want? What is it this time?

Hookers? Doctors? Lawyers? Politicians? Crips? Bloods?

Have you lost your voice, Barsky? This is a biggie, sir. The guys took off at

least two million bucks.

Oh, give me a break. I'm on the other line about that drug bust. We're talking

two billion. You got that, Barsky? Two billion dollars.

Now get off my back and stop calling us.

It's a matter of honor, sir.

Now listen here, pussycat.

Does the name Dinelli ring a bell, sir?

Marco Dinelli?

Wait a minute.

Are you trying to tell me that... He and his buddy are in the getaway car.

Marco Dinelli?

I'm glad I finally got your attention, sir.

I want him alive, you hear me?

Where's Trudeau? I can't locate him.

Chances are the local cops are going to get this one, sir.

Good morning, everybody, and...

What a wonderful day it is on this 22nd day of June.

Looks like we're going to have a party.

Come on, guys.

You're smarter than that.

There's an innocent little girl here in the back seat.

You wouldn't want to hurt her, would you?

Dispatch cars 59, 60, 62, and 65.

Cars 59, 60, 62, and 65.

There are cops everywhere.

Marco Dinelli is ours. Do you understand, baby face?

He belongs to us from head to toe, and if you let the cops take him away from

us, I am going to torture you to death.

I'm alone, sir. Totally outnumbered. There are at least a dozen cop cars.

Stop! Crying, Barsky! Get me Trudeau and hurry up.

You mean

my very special friend, Marco Dinelli, in person?

You got it, Trudeau. They're chasing him down Miller Avenue, heading south.

I want you to get in Barsky's car and take full control of the situation

those idiots blow the shit out of him.

Where the hell's Barsky?

He's going to meet you in 25 seconds at the southeast corner of Stanton and

Crane. Now, you better hurry. It's only five blocks. You're lucky.

Now, listen, pal. It's all over. Your chances are zero, zip. So why don't you

just do yourself a favor and pull over?

Trying to spoil the party. It's not very nice.

Hey, worky. How we doing? You better buckle up, Trudeau.

Buckle up?

That bad, huh?

Look, I don't like seatbelts. Reminds me of those S &M parlors.

S &M parlors? Yeah. You ever been to one of them?

Not until now.

Well, come on, babyface. Let's get going.

Easy.

We're supposed to be having fun, Barsky.

Sorry for that.

Congratulations, Marco.

You've been pretty smart this time.

Now listen up.

And listen to me very carefully.

Who are you?

What do you want?

We met before.

I'm a friend of yours.

I think I can help you.

I don't need no help, mister.

What's the license plate on that green car, Lesser?

It starts with an F.

That figures.

Well, I admit the local heat here looks like a sorry bunch of losers, but it

looks like they got you by the fucking balls, Marco.

Unless you listen to me, I know a way out of this mess.

What kind of game is this, Marco? What the hell's going on? Why'd you tell this

guy to go to hell?

They're gonna psych you out, they're gonna blow us up, and then we're all

be dead, so why don't you just stop?

this and give up. Why don't you shut the fuck up?

That's him we're playing.

Nobody can help us now.

Then turn off the radio.

Go ahead. Fucking turn it on.

Hey,

check this out, Eddie.

No, right behind me.

Pops, there's another car.

I think it's some crazy son of a bitch in that green car, McClane. Now listen

me, kiddo. We're not going to harm anybody if you just give up and pull

He's lying.

Don't listen to him, Martho.

He's some dumbass tit from the local parade.

I repeat the offer I made to you last week, Marco.

Remember?

He knows you, Marco. He talks like he fucking knows you.

Be creative, Marco.

As long as these dicks are listening, try to remember my offer.

We lost him.

How about some support?

What's going on?

Cash cards 45, 46, 56, 57, and 58.

Cards 45, 46, 56, 57, 58, and 59.

Any news from Trudeau?

Get me Bart.

Oh, boy.

We got a few more nasty bugs here, Marco.

You better listen to me now.

Take a good look, Eddie.

Check him out.

Boy sounds familiar.

He's just playing games, Marco. He's just fucking around with your head.

Just get us out of here, damn it.

This is Madison looking for babyface. Can you hear me?

Answer him. It's Mark Trudeau.

We've got a hot situation here, Madison.

Barsky and I are about ready to get into it.

Oh, you're sick, Trudeau, but that's nothing new.

I need an update.

Unemotional and straight.

My chances are a million to one.

Well, that's slightly better than usual.

You know, I suggest you give Barky a heavy promotion after this one's over

You know, I could care less about that. Now just give me an update.

Give me ten minutos, okay?

Listen, Trudeau.

Hey, bonehead, you speak Spanish or what?

Take the freeway, Marco. Come on, man. Take the freeway, damn it!

You wanna drive? Why don't you fucking drive?

There's gonna be choppers all over the freeway.

Well, right on your ass, buddy.

Got rid of those guys real quick, huh?

Now take a left. Left my ass. Why don't you take a left?

Marco,

I know it's a difficult day for you, but you can still come out smelling like a

rose. And you know why?

Because these funny -looking guys in their blue uniforms don't have a clue on

how to deal with you.

Well, how about you?

I know this part of the world like my own backyard, Marco.

Better than you or any of your buddies.

I can be a tremendous asset to you, Marco, but you just gotta listen.

your fire!

This part of the Long Beach PD Pursuit Vehicle southbound FIG at 220.

of Carson.

Units involved in the pursuit.

Highway patrol helicopter en route.

We got them. Just don't lose them now, guys.

Finished.

across Western Avenue, so we have to hurry.

We've got the cars in the covered area, and we're going to set up a roadblock in

the street. Now let's move.

Not bad at all.

Take a quick right, Marco.

Into the back alley. Now!

Do it. Do it. He's dead, man.

Do what he says, Marco.

Hey, I need to come around sooner or later, babe.

For you?

Never. I'd rather get killed.

Disappeared.

Disappeared? We had him!

He can't show up disappeared.

You're fired, McClane. You too, boy -loft.

As you can see, you can trust me, Marco.

Now are you ready to make a deal or what?

Why don't you identify yourself first?

I can't.

As long as our friends might be listening to it.

Why not?

Because what I'm doing is against the law.

Marco? My name starts with a T and it sounds slightly French.

He's a phony, man. Don't listen to him. I know him.

I told you he's just trying to fuck with your head, Marco.

We met at the Dunes Cafe, right?

You got it, Marco.

That's me.

Yeah, well, your office stinks.

I would never work for you, never in a million years.

You're a flexible guy, Marco.

I like that.

I don't know.

I'm in pretty good shape now.

Thanks anyway.

I definitely owe you one.

Then luck is finally on our side, Marco.

One day, somebody will kill that stupid grin on your face.

And that'll be my day.

You're a strange man, Trudeau.

Yeah? In what regard?

You come out looking like a winner, even when you lose.

Well, you know, Varsky, it feels like winning.

As long as the cops don't get a hold of him, I still have time.

But I'm gonna get him.

Someday.

Are they? I don't know.

We better contact Madison.

Yeah, you contact him.

Where you going?

Back to my car.

I'll drop you off.

Actually, I thought you couldn't drive.

Babyface, my private life is none of your business.

What am I doing here?

Why am I surrounded by nuts and maniacs?

What have I done to deserve this? I mean, you know, I should have listened

dad. He wanted me to be a doctor or a lawyer.

I'd have a ton of money by now.

10 to 5, weekends off.

Or, you know, maybe it's time for me to switch sides.

One single run from St. Martha to Miami and I'd be a millionaire.

Because that's what it's all about, right?

Money, dollars, greed.

Do you think we're a bunch of fools, sir?

What? Risking our lives for nothing?

No, no.

We serve.

What would they do without us? The world would be in total chaos.

Is it not already?

Are you trying to depress me?

Sorry.

Never mind.

Thanks for listening, anyway. It was truly revealing, sir.

Oh, it was my pleasure. It was a pleasure.

I'll see you later.

I'm afraid I got bad news for us.

Marco Dinelli played a dirty trick on you. He's gone.

And so is the teller and all the money.

Cute.

Real cute.

Anything you want me to do?

I'll think about it.

Something appropriate.

What do you want?

Liar.

Hey, this is pretty good. You want some?

I'll cook you some dinner tonight.

Hey, throw these away or burn them or something, will you?

Ouch.

Don't say goodbye.

No, I'm not.

No, I'm not. And I'll be your love.

Okay.

Just one more try.

Oh, shit.

What?

Eddie, are you in there?

Obviously I'm in here.

Eddie, I want to talk to you.

Can't I think of shit in private, please?

No, I want to talk to you now.

Look, I don't care if your skin's getting dry from the air. You can't come

here. I'm busy.

Why don't you go out and play with something, like in the freeway or

Eddie, I am sick and tired of this!

You know, you are really starting to annoy me.

Interesting. Very interesting.

Like I said, I had nothing to do with it. I was working as a bank teller back

then.

I was kidnapped, you understand?

I had to do what they said.

I understand.

I guess my only mistake was that I didn't try and run away once we settled

Mexico.

But I was afraid and... I remember this old... Chief, I got my lights up.

Yeah, I'll be right with you.

You know, I don't think you've got anything to worry about, especially with

you've decided to do now.

It is never too late, right?

They deserve it.

At least Eddie.

He's been very unpleasant to deal with lately.

Is he really?

I'm sorry to hear that.

Mr. Madison, I'm not going to have to go to jail now, am I?

It's not up to me, Tracy.

If I were the judge, I might let you off.

I got nothing. Not a dime.

Money's all gone?

Oh, whatever's left, they got it.

Is there maybe a reward or something, Mr. Madison?

Marco Dinelli.

What is there?

I know someone who's going to freak when he hears this.

You've got to be kidding.

Do I sound like I'm kidding?

Sorry, Chief. I'm just having trouble expressing my amazement. Fuck your

amazement. Where's Trudeau?

Unfortunately, Chief, I don't have a clue as to where Trudeau is these days,

I'll keep looking for him.

In the meantime, Chief, I'm tickled to death to check this one out. Call me

you've got something.

All right.

All right. You'll hear from me within 24 hours. Thank you, babyface. Bye -bye.

You got it.

Goodbye.

My head all the way.

Good job, Farski.

My pleasure.

So how was Mexico?

Oh, it was okay.

Hey, what's that little cunt Eddie's doing?

Hey, why's she come and finally talk anyway? Who cares?

You should.

What are we doing here anyways?

Joe Rins killed your mother.

You don't think that I know that?

I hate his fucking guts.

He's a hard man to nail. He's tough. Real tough.

He's been on my mind all these years.

Just like you.

What do you want from me? There might still be a way out of this.

I think I can still help you.

If you help me.

Me help you?

It does sound kind of funny, doesn't it? You're a funny guy.

Marco, you should see today's agents.

I'm old -fashioned.

I'm conservative compared to some of these clowns.

But it's a dirty job, Marco.

It's better than spending time in some jail.

Let me tell you, jails are hell halls.

Marco, how about some nice, clean revenge?

Rinks is dead one way or the other.

I can see it in your eyes, boy.

His time has finally come.

Your mother was a good woman. A nice woman. She didn't have to die.

Rinks killed her.

Nice and clean?

All the way.

What about Eddie and Kelly's at?

One thing at a time, Marco. I'm fearing it.

I'll do my best. It's not good enough.

I want Eddie and Kelly to get a new start.

I want that to be part of the deal.

Then will you help me testify against Joe Rinks?

You never give up, do you?

You're a funny guy, Trudeau.

Ha ha ha ha!
