Thank you.

Where in Christ is he?

He'll be along.

We've lost the knight.

This is the one thing I told him we shouldn't try, is to hit this place in

daylight. Here he is.

Briefly there, Qantas, the message.

0615. The diversion will begin at 0615.

Get him out of here.

The diversion begins in four minutes. That's an hour and a half late.

Amati, at the first sound of firing, I want your sharpshooters to nail their

sentries and detach a few more of your men to the roadblocks. If their security

figures out what we're up to up here, they'll be up here on the double.

Take care of that and get back here.

Washington, take your men across the bridge, hold the far side of the gully,

put a bazooka shell into that rear position as soon as possible.

Yes, sir.

Sills, Salazar, Cruz, Stedman.

Get into the house, kill the general, and get out.

Fast, gentlemen.

Well, what about the machine gun in the yard?

We'll do our job, Sills. You take care of yours.

Now move.

Thedman.

I hope you don't live through this, but if you do, don't forget your date with

the provost marshal, because I'm looking forward to it.

I ain't about to forget, Captain.

Sure.

You all set? Set.

All right, move them up the hill.

Lieutenant Hacker, in 20 minutes, half these men will have died for their

country.

Let's try and make sure none of them go to their graves thinking we were

cowards.

Smoking frag on the bunker?

Yes.

Thank God it's a book they haven't read.

Moshi moshi!

I'll stop as soon as I can. Really?

But come back soon. I'll stop as soon as I can.

Thank you.

We'll all catch hell for this.

Might as well take a little. As long as you've got to pay for it anyway.

Hey, here, let me hold it for you.

Have them and throw them on the double.

Washington's stuck. He's pinned on the other side of that cross.

Take as many of these men as you can and get them over there and see what you

can do. You, you, you.

Come on.

Come on.

What do you mean by this?

Silvers! I'll entreat that you let this lousy...

What is this?

It's a Jap woman. She had a gun.

She's sitting there by the bed.

She shot the captain. I had to get her.

He's dead, Lieutenant.

How about it, Stills? Is that the way it was?

Lieutenant Hacker, I... Shut up, Stedman!

Is that the way it was, Stills? Yeah, yeah. That's the way it was.

Salazar! Yes, that's right, sir.

We're running out of time, Lieutenant.

All right.

Get moving.

Get moving.

Okay, okay, I'm sorry

Oh, Jesus.

Give me the strength to fulfill this vow.

For you, mother and father.

For the spirits of the rising sun.

Bushido.

Push the door.

Lieutenant Hacker, in 20 minutes, half these men will have died for their

country.

I'll be by to see you this time.

It's been so long, but I'll be by.

We'll do our job, Sills. You take care of yours.

Why doesn't it ever go away?

Years have gone.

Oh, God.

How long can I remember?

How long?

Steadman, I hope you don't live through this.

I was the best soldier in the unit.

I saved their necks soft enough.

They put up with me because, hell, they owe me.

I know it and they know it.

They never would admit it.

Oh, things got away from me once in a while, that's all.

I made up for all of it.

I never whined about it.

I made up for it.

Washington, things are just about the same with you.

How different will it be?

How many things can change in 30 years?

They loved us when we marched into Manila.

Flowers and the girls.

Music and dancing in the streets.

How different will it be?

Sagittarians, Scorpio, Virgo, Aquarius, and searching for the sign that goes

with their own sign of a zodiac.

Oh, Mercury, Mars, Jupiter, and Venus, Pluto, Saturn,

Neptune, Uranus, how a farmer's land is a false sign of...

him out there with that little broad and shaking his black ass around.

These damn people, they just don't care who they're seeing.

Yep.

Get himself all sweaty and stinking and come back and plop down here with it.

You want to sit here with that all night?

Oh, he always speaks very highly of you. What the hell do you know?

Haven't been able to smell anything for years.

Now, wait a minute. That's not true.

I have an excellent nose for good booze.

Thank you.

Your hotel reservation is confirmed, sir, for tomorrow night in Manila.

Reservations were a bit of a problem because of the reunion and convention

there. Ishi -ma?

Oh, yes.

His card.

Astus Curios on M .H. Del Pilar Street.

World War II relics and historical items.

He should be very busy now, but Tande is this week.

Yes, I know.

The travel agent can arrange to have a driver pick you up at the airport. Shall

I... That won't be necessary.

I'll get around on my own.

I'm quite familiar with Manila.

You didn't mention anything about the return reservation.

Would you like me to make you one?

You can carry on well without me?

Yes.

Goodbye.

Mabuhay. Thank you.

Salamat poho.

Salamat poho.

Thank you. Happy to be here.

Mabuhay.

Mabuhay.

Mabuhay. Sweet.

Thank you.

Hacker. Sam Hacker.

You haven't changed a bit, Lieutenant.

Dante, you dirty old son of a... How are you?

How are you? God, it's good to see you. Come on, I gotta... No, no, no, wait. I

gotta get my room, my luggage.

Lloyda will take care of that. Remember that, Lloyda. He's my buddy.

About these lays, old buddy, is this the best you can do? That's what they give

you in the morning.

Heroes. Heroes.

Heroes.

You're driving me crazy.

You're driving me insane.

Sometimes it's crazy.

But I don't like to play those games.

Just give it up.

There you go.

Over the teeth.

Over the gums. Look out, liver.

Here it comes.

And now, to the veterans of my war.

What the hell war is that?

To the 1st Marine Division in Vietnam.

Piss on them, folks.

That's a strange guy, that post. You had your war, didn't you?

The further they get behind you, the more fun you think you had in them.

But you get your turn.

No regrets, huh?

Nope.

Hey, you running the bar or what?

Oh, yeah. Sorry, Marcus.

Well,

I propose another toast, though.

To the life that's been, is to be, and to old friends.

Praise the Lord.

Alleluia.

Can the white man get a drink in here?

Here, take mine.

What is it?

Scotch. Scotch.

Scotch. Scotch. Makes you fart, don't it, Stedman?

Well, out of that class, it would, yeah.

Anyway, I drink bourbon. Hey.

Yeah? Put some bourbon. With no gas in it. All right. It's not funny.

All right, let me have the bourbon and no more of that BS about that Boy Scout

war in Vietnam.

Hey, is this asshole with you?

Hey.

Bourbon for my brother. The best you got on me.

Your brother?

Yeah, he's been...

Real sick.

All right, I can buy my own. Oh, loosen up, Stedman, for God's sake. I mean,

just make sure you don't put his finger in it.

Take it out of here.

I said I can buy my own.

Hey, wait a minute, wait. Let me get this wrong. I insist.

You shut up.

This is between Bojangles here and me. Now, you listen to me, Stedman. You just

calm down. That's a policeman you're talking to.

That's a cop.

So you're whatever, CEO. I'm going to...

Make the toast and pay for the drinks, and I say we drink to the constabulary

and the PC.

Huh? To the balls! To the balls!

What do I care about your liver?

God.

Deadman.

Over the years, I've known you.

I've tried to understand what makes you tick.

I've even tried to like you, but I've always failed.

I guess it's time now to, as the Americans so nicely put it, lay you

on your ass.

Well, you just come right on ahead. You always thought you were so damn good

with that hand -to -hand stuff.

Well, I know the karate routine, too, grace ball.

And I know it pretty damn good.

Well...

This might turn out to be a pretty good one, huh? Like the old days.

Excuse me, Raoul.

You still haven't learned, Tom.

I mean, we are Raoul's guests.

And what you need is a social porter.

Told you about your bull, Toll.

But poor man, come on, poor.

What are you waiting for?

Oh, I always thought he'd have a hard head.

Hey, you.

I mean, you couldn't give a damn about the war or Vietnam.

Right? I mean, what the hell are you still doing in this part of the world?

I'm going back someday.

We pulled out too soon.

I left a wife and two kids in Saigon.

Oh, shit.

That's sad.

Boys, I think we ought to drink to that.

And now, gentlemen, before the night, the day that it slips away and the

booze runners is incapable, let us collect booty.

Good idea.

You get Sills. All right. And I'll bring the old hole there, and you keep his

change.

This is the place?

Yes, sir.

I remember trees.

I used to play in them.

And a large house.

Has it been so long?

So long, sir?

During the war, there was a house right out there.

A plantation house.

What war was that?

Your war.

The American war with the Japanese.

Oh, I don't know anything about that, sir. I wasn't even born then.

Tell them I want more reaction when I strike them.

They don't look like I hurt him at all.

I want reaction.

I'm supposed to be stronger than they are.

Where's the shipper?

Your visitors are here, Mr. Salazar.

What?

Dante Salazar!

Hey! Here's the game!

Washington!

There's men in here! These days I'm going to break that fool's neck.

He's getting too old and too fat for this. He can't pull punches anymore.

How can I keep asking my top men to put up with this?

Relax. and have a drink.

He is with his friends now. The day is over anyway.

What about the fight scene? When do we do that?

I have other commitments.

I can't stand around and watch this moron play big shot.

I only work here.

And besides, he's a star. Star?

He's a big tree but has no shadows.

I spent years learning the martial sciences.

Why am I at the convenience of a pig?

Very good.

I will take this one, Nishima.

Whatever the price.

That will be very high.

That is the finest I have.

I will watch this blade in the ancient tradition.

What is it you seek?

Not merely to purchase an article of imperial history?

I seek vengeance.

Vengeance?

That is meaningless.

Honor, then.

Many things have been done to restore bruised honor.

All it seems leads only to greater crimes.

Desiring some other man.

And it goes on and on.

Justice, then. I am Tamon Matsuda.

Matsuda.

Matsuda.

I have heard of these stories.

More than 30 years have passed.

Why have you waited so long to do this thing? I was not ready to accept what

this course would cost.

It will cost you your young life, Tabor Matsuda.

It could never have been otherwise.

I accept it as samurai code.

I will warn them of my intentions.

It will be obscure.

But it'll be enough.

And I will accept also the responsibility for my actions.

There is no other way.

Every night of my life, I have relived that day.

My father was a soldier.

My mother was not.

Take this parade.

For the sake of justice.

And that alone.

I told you it pays to breed.

Yeah, you won it, pal.

You look hungry.

I think someday you're going to win them all, man.

Let's drink.

I shouldn't.

But I deserve it.

Go on, celebrate now, because when you fight my bird, you may have to kill

yourself. A winner never does that, but should you want to borrow my... There

he's at me.

Okay, guys.

Be all right, huh?

Qantas.

from the dark.

You are Victor Quintus?

Yes. What do you want?

Want? You want to rob me?

I got news for you. You're in for deep trouble.

I do not mean to rob you.

Then what do you want?

I mean to kill you.

Got to show off, doesn't he?

I mean, just look at that.

What the hell does he think he is, front of stairs or something?

Well, at least you've got to admit the guy's graceful. He's graceful. What's he

need all these broads for?

I mean, what does he just go outside and give himself a little Benny boy?

Dead man, watch it.

Look, I don't have to admit he's graceful. I don't have to admit nothing.

You're having a lousy time.

You know that?

You're always having a lousy time. Five years ago in Kansas City, you had a

lousy time. What do you come back for? Why?

Spy on me?

Just wants to make sure that I don't spill anything.

Well, I can be terribly wasteful, you know.

I'm here because I like to watch luscious puke.

Hey, baby.

Come on.

Let's see if you're any good at dancing.

Man, this is the square's dancing I've seen.

Want to dance?

You're out, Frankie.

No,

you're next to them.

Ah, come on.

Listen.

I haven't slept for two days.

What?

The night's young.

Take one of these girls. Take two.

Excuse me.

Well, Carol, I guess it's your lucky day. Sort of, sort of an hour.

Is this your first time in Manila?

Well, I tell you, we tried to get back here before.

But we could never stay sober past San Diego.

Speak to Armante.

Yes, sir.

Please forgive the inclusion, sir.

Let me speak to you outside.

Is that important?

Yes, sir.

Excuse me. Carol. In the 40s, isn't it true that men were taught to go after

very specific objectives?

Are you trying to get me to ask you to dance with me? Yeah.

Would you like to dance?

I thought you'd never ask.

Lonely?

No more than usual.

What do you want?

You.

Me?

Hey, look, let me save you a lot of trouble.

I don't sing and I don't dance and I don't do any of that stuff. I know.

Shut up, Flip. You're paid for.

Difference doesn't make how I take it. I don't have to take this.

Come here. Come back here.

What in the hell is the matter with you?

The days of impatient lovers are past, my friend.

Try persuasion.

You might have more left.

I don't need your goddamn advice.

I agree, but... A good psychiatrist, an analyst, and perhaps an animal trainer.

and do wonders for you. You lacy little queer.

Sit down, gentlemen.

Well, one thing I can say for myself.

When I plan a celebration, it always includes something for everyone.

And now the damages.

I've entered these figures in dollars instead of pesos.

Furniture and liquor.

$742.

Glassware, $97.

One silk dress, $85.

Hey, now, wait a minute.

That broad tried to get my wallet. I was just holding her for the cops.

Shut up, Stedman, for God's sakes.

$842.

But among you, that isn't too bad.

Now, the dress, of course, will be our buddy Stedman's responsibility.

And you can deduct our buddy Salazar's share.

Have a suit you covered for him.

Now, the officers will escort you downstairs where you may properly

your responsibilities.

I'll personally guarantee your checks in this case.

And since I'm still on vacation officially, I'll meet you guys outside.

Double time. We still have a lot of places to stop.

Uh, Hacker.

Quintez mean anything to you?

Mr. Quintez?

No.

Well, he was a member of my guerrilla unit.

You met him once.

The day we raided the house of General Matsuda.

He brought the diversion message.

He was going to take part in the Bataan Day ceremonies.

Who was?

Who was that?

He was killed tonight.

Murdered.

Hacked to pieces in an alley.

By an assailant who took nothing.

Not his money.

Not his prize fighting card.

Well, our old soldier friends are at an age.

They die every day.

Some linger.

Some don't.

So, let's have a drink for Victor Fuentes.

And a good time we should have shared with Victor Fuentes.

One is gone.

Give me the strength to fulfill this vow.

I want this to be shut. It's a good landing.

I don't need your fumbling.

Where's the ship, girl?

Pepper, I'm here.

Your job is to stay by me, stupid.

If I have to call for you again, you won't have a job at all.

Come here.

Help me with this.

Easy, you pigs.

Director!

Yes, Dante.

Did you talk to Leon?

Yes, I did.

Well, tell him again.

I'm tired today.

I intend to leave early. Oh, that's tight enough.

Tie it off.

That officer got it right the first time.

There will be no retakes.

When all the rest of you are ready, call me.

Okay, Dante.

My shirt.

is it, Leon?

Make sure the great artiste is ready.

Perhaps I'll slip today and kick his silly face into the bay.

The grown man of this business is ridiculous.

How many times do you think you have to call me? Fool.

I want to see all this footage.

The scaps are temporary.

Doesn't look like as good as my old ones.

So we may have to reshoot later.

Don't worry. These are all extreme long shots anyway.

Camera's up there.

Hold it.

Where's Leon?

I can't be held up like this.

It's about time.

A minute or two.

You'd have been replaced.

Can we please get on with this?

All right, master.

The light is set.

Raise it, please.

Damn it.

This damn thing is too tight.

Why can't you do anything right?

Now, roll up.

Action. What was that?

Wasn't part of the sequence.

Forgive me, an accident.

Keep it moving.

This is without sound.

You. You're not Leon.

He was ill.

Quite certain.

Don't worry.

I'll make you look really good.

Very good, Leon.

Counter, Dante.

Come back now.

Leon, what's wrong?

It's emotional. Do you know good or not? My mother's voice didn't do her any

good.

Leon, stop.

Out of here.

Remember the name, Matsuda.

Matsuda!

do anything else.

Hacker, lying in the sun is a western custom.

Good sense tells you if you stay too long, you're gonna have a stroke.

Or get to be one gigantic wark.

Please let me keep my fantasies.

I insist you keep them.

Tell me, I know it's rude to pry, but I remember you once had a

wife. You did too.

I still have several.

But only one officially.

And children.

How many?

Thirteen. All of whom I love and who love me in return.

See, we're very warm people.

Love is easy for us.

You Americans, you hop, skip and jump.

Well, my wife is gone.

Let's see, about a year ago.

I'm sorry.

Don't be.

No, no, don't be. She's happy. Oh, my business prospered.

It took all the time. I mean, all my time.

We were married seven years, but we only had the first two.

Then she found a little surf squirt.

135 pounds of pimples, reeking of coppertone and ripple.

But thinking about it, maybe her change in taste wasn't that radical.

Well, it's amazing how...

How quickly life directions change.

Thank you.

I wanted to be the MacArthur of my country.

Yeah. The Wellington of the East.

You know, leading troops to battle.

But the wars moved on.

I wanted to be an architect.

I wanted to have only one woman in my life.

I wanted this, I wanted that.

Finally, I settled for whatever I could reach.

But when the pendulum swings, my old uniforms are still around.

Still fit?

I need a lot of alteration.

I still have my pencils and my T -square.

What, the women?

Ah, the women.

Raul, old buddy, they must have cost you a fortune.

All except for Sienna.

I never bought her services.

Like me, she's got poor taste.

She likes you.

Come on, come on in. It's cold.

Lower, lower.

I like that.

Careful, huh? Oh, yes.

Do you know that face?

Any of you?

Inspector, none of us know him.

All right, stop the film. Turn on the lights, please.

Inspector,

here are the skills from this film.

Thank you.

Does he look familiar to you?

Chinese, Japanese, or Thai?

Well, it's me.

More Japanese?

I think so, too.

More Japanese.

The words. You said he repeated them.

Do they sound Japanese?

I don't know, for God's sake.

Everything happened so fast. I can't remember.

He could have been speaking in Tagalog. I don't know.

All right.

Corporal Arenas. Yes, sir. Seal the film.

Take it to the hearing institute. See if some people there can put some words in

this man's mouth. Yes, sir.

All right.

The rest of you can go.

Thank you and sorry for the inconvenience.

Oh,

you know, there's something familiar.

I mean, I don't know. I don't know what it is, but there's something.

I feel the same way.

Either we're having an identical dream or we've met this man.

I wasted your money.

No, not my money. It's my friend Demonte's money.

I only wasted my time, which is worthless anyway, and... and yours.

I have all night.

That would be something, wouldn't it? We could both spend it waiting for...

I have my only obsession, my only motivation right here.

Thank you.

Move it, greaseball.

I got something you'd love, honey, and I got a lot of money, too.

You ain't got enough.

It'd be okay if the money was right, though, wouldn't it, huh?

You ain't got enough for anything.

A piece of ass would probably kill you.

Hey, now, wait a minute. I mean... Oh, come on. Get lost, will you?

You really got a lot of class, don't you? Yeah, class.

bitch is gonna talk to me like that.

You know

a

mortician with a strong arm? I mean, one that can jerk that blade right out of

your ass?

Hey, wait a minute. I know a better way to handle this.

Now, what do you say. I just take my friend. All right, cool. Let's drink

whole thing up.

No more light, Mr. Sills.

Who are you?

We have met.

During the war.

In my father's house. And in my mother's bedroom.

Yes, but you see, I was a coward then.

For that, my mother died.

And your comrade.

There's nothing I could have done.

You see that, don't you?

You see, Stedman would have killed me too.

Have you been alive?

No.

No, I have not been alive.

See, the guilt has eaten at me until I... I haven't lived like a man, I

been a man, and I... Um, may I,

um... Yes.

I have not lived like a man.

Because I deserve it.

I am going to try to die like a man.

Jimmy? What is Jimmy?

My brother, the boy.

Boy?

the help you're going to get from me.

The Hearing Institute gave me two words. Yeah.

One a name you should remember.

What's that?

Matsuda. Matsuda?

The subject said this several times as he struck Salazar.

Wait a minute.

You don't mean Matsuda, the general.

Precisely.

He had a son who witnessed everything.

Of course.

The poor little boy.

Of course I remember him. How could I forget him?

Oh, Salamat Po.

Do you think that boy grew up to be the man in the film?

Well, now, that unfortunate, distraught little boy was brought to Japan right

after the war.

From there to San Francisco, where he lived with his fraternal grandparents

until they died.

Now he's got a successful import -export business there.

And I'll bet that he's not in San Francisco now, is he?

No.

He's here.

He arrived the day after you did. I'll be damned.

And that brings us to the second word.

Bushido.

The samurai code.

Right. And he's been studying the Japanese, Chinese, and Korean martial

since the age of 12.

He's now 43.

Jesus.

The code of honor. The knowledge.

The means.

To carry out a vendetta.

As well as the motivation.

Which means your friend.

Juan Tez.

Samurai warning of things to come.

Which means things will be much worse than what we've seen so far.

They did not forget old Steady after all.

Even a fancy ribbon may be the best part of some nifty

prod.

Post a guard.

Let me guess.

Your boys missed him.

For the moment.

Security office, please.

But he won't get off the island. We'll see to that.

He slipped through.

Screen all outgoing oriental mail passengers.

Hold anyone there is any question about.

The stills from the movie film, are they out?

Yes, sir. The patrols have them.

You're going to have a male companion from now until Matsuda's in custody.

If we don't get him before, our part in the Bataan Day celebration may be

canceled. He's done thinking along those lines.

33 years.

Can you imagine that kind of...

relentless obsession.

I mean, nursing a hatred that long, my God, it's beyond belief.

They discovered a Jap Army veteran on Lubang Island in 1974.

Still fighting.

His weapon's still operable.

I wouldn't be surprised if there are more of them.

You know, that kind of dedication hasn't been heard of.

But it's grown rare these days.

Railway security, please.

I lost a good friend the day we killed the general.

Today I lost another one.

He was weak.

But you know, I... I guess he was harmless enough.

Someday I'd like to find out what... What made him...

wastes so much of himself on the bottom.

Raul, a goddamn war.

This won't stay put, will it?

Security office, please.

I want to speak to the supervising officer.

You always understood that, Captain.

You were the best.

The people you died for will never forget you.

Corregidor What was it like?

My God, what was suffered here?

And what has changed?

Tonight, this thing will be finished.

Forgive me if the course I choose has been wrong.

Hey, wait a minute. Hey!

Hey, man, wait a minute.

I don't want to eat alone.

Well, you don't have to. We've got a PC guard.

I don't want to eat with him.

Eat in your room.

You've got a nice new one.

I keep telling you, we've got to stay together.

He's always got one of us off by himself.

He's just waiting for me.

For us to separate. I'm telling you, that's all he's waiting for.

I want to go to dinner with you.

Shana doesn't like you. Who the hell cares what she likes?

All right, then. I don't like you.

And neither do I.

Oh, buddy, that makes it unanimous.

You guys want him to get me, don't you?

Well, let me tell you something. In the last few hours, I've been doing a lot of

thinking.

I've been thinking about that day, and I remember that woman.

The clothes. How'd you lose her clothes?

You know, I never got around to asking you.

How could a woman like that...

Surprise, a professional soldier like Kimbrough. I mean, she really took him

guard.

And that gun, that damn gun.

Where'd she hide that gun?

I don't know.

But she had a gun. I showed it to you.

Yeah, I know.

I know you showed it to me.

I put a lot of things out of my mind for a long time.

Maybe I did it deliberately. I don't know.

I just can't help wondering what went on there that so warped that 10 -year -old

boy that he spent 33 years of his life planning his revenge and

drove a good soldier like Sills into a booze jug so tight that he could never

shake it. No, no.

Maybe Sills did something. Maybe you did. Or maybe it was Salazar.

Something. But I know damn well it was not the way you said it was.

It was.

It was.

It was. It wasn't.

I don't like you anyway.

Let's be honest.

I think you're an evil, distorted, perverted piece of tripe.

And I don't have to share my dinner table with you. I don't have to share a

goddamn thing with you.

And that flip cop.

You always thought you were so much better than me. I won more medals than

of you put together. You sure as hell did.

And you know what that proves?

It proves what crazy insanity we're all pushing for.

That our country, our government, could decorate someone like you should make

anyone who served this country puke his holy guts out.

You and Kimbrough.

What?

You're not going to try anything here.

Not with me, not face to face.

What makes you think I won't?

Because that ain't your style.

I'm not a woman.

And you're in front of me.

And if you did...

guys do your thing.

I'll have dinner in my own room.

It's alright.

It's alright.

I'll see you guys tomorrow.

Your relief.

Well, thank you for the dinner. Yeah, yeah, you're welcome.

Many pleasures.

Remember the last time we had this stuff?

I don't recall.

Tokyo.

Tokyo.

Sergeant,

will you see the ladies home, please?

Yes, sir.

Good night, ladies.

I'll make this all up to you guys, but it's important.

Matsuda?

Matsuda. He's got Stedman. Where?

The industrial park off Sukut Road, remember?

Where his father's house was during the war.

There goes our dinner.

don't believe you.

I mean, why should they?

You better let me go and you get away.

I'll stall for you and you can get clean away.

You can if I help you.

Why don't you answer me, please?

Frank, can you believe this? That was a field we charged across.

It was beautiful there. I mean, it's like a park. Yeah, there's supposed to

progress. Yeah, progress, shit.

They've had some communications with him.

He's asked to see you.

Me?

You say what?

No.

But he wants to talk only to you.

He's got what he wants.

He's also got a gun he got from Stedman's Guard.

I don't know.

What do you think?

Leave his ass out there.

I think it's your life.

So it's up to you.

Thanks a lot.

Matsuda.

Matsuda, it's Hacker.

You requested me.

Stay there!

You want me to take Stedman back with me?

Mr. Stedman and I have an appointment.

No.

Hacker, you gotta help me.

You gotta get me out of here, man.

Please.

Please, Matsuda, come.

This creature you call Steadman, he is the one who murdered your commanding

officer after he raped my mother and shot her.

Salazar and Sills and the man who said it all in motion, Guantes, have paid

their debts.

I should have more time to do this correctly.

I should have a comrade with me to make the ceremony right.

But I do not.

The law could work. The law would work for you.

No, that was never possible for me.

Honor and the law, in my eyes, do not often walk with justice.

I know a hacker.

Hacker, you gotta help me. You gotta help me, please.

Matsuda, please, for God's sake, come back with me. We can work this out.

Please, come.

You kept me alive once.

I have not forgotten it.

Go back now, or you will die with us.

And your death will serve no purpose.

Hacker, you can't do this to me.

You were the one who was so damn full of compassion.

Where the hell is it now?

Hacker, please.

I didn't kill Kim, bro.

It was a nip woman. It was a nip.

Hacker, come back!

Please! Hacker, you can't do this to me!

This is all just...

me do anything it wasn't me it wasn't me

why can't you hear me

you

want me to beg you want me to say how

sorry i am is that it how sorry i am it's not enough

Not nearly enough to be sorry.

You should be thankful.

I do not have enough time.

I should let you taste some of the agony you inflicted on others.

This will be fast.

But I will be with you.

I will always be with you.

Please. I don't want to die.

Oh, no.

No. No. No!

So the little war ends.

Does it?

I wonder if they ever end.

I think man just takes a breather now and then.

Then the whole damn thing starts all over again.
