Open the register.

Shut up, open the fucking register!

Shut up.

Hey you. Get over here.

Your wallet. Throw it on the floor.

Come on!

Come on, come on!

Here!

In the bag! Put it in a fucking bag!

Paper or plastic?

Plastic.

Hey hey you, get back here.

Look, lady.

I don't give a shit what
you're doing here, okay?

Do what you gotta do,
just leave me out of it.

What'd you say?

You think I'm a lady?

Aren't you?

Think I won't shoot you in the face, huh?

I hope not.

Drop that stuff.

What?

The shit in your
hand. Drop it.

Look, this is the last bottle, I need this.

Drop it.

I've got a bleeding foot.

I've got a fucking gun.

Who's gonna pay for that?

Give me my wallet.

... assault and robbery,

33 year old caucasian, broke the window
behind me during his exit.

Police are releasing security
camera footage from...

Hold it asshole!

Drop the gun.
Drop the gun!

Drop it right now!

Okay.

You wanna fuck with me, huh?
You want to fuck with me!

Get out of my store!
Get out!

Hey! Get off my car.

What car?

The one you're sitting on.

I thought this was a toilet.

At this stage, police estimated
a take of $300,000.

Taylor, a 33 years old caucasian,

is said to be driving a
maroon 1980's model Buick

license plate K-R-S-4-2-7.

The police ask anyone who
identifies Taylor or his vehicle

to contact their local authorities.

In other news...

Hello?

Hi, I'm so sorry to disturb you.

I'm new to LA

and I was on my way to see a buddy
of mine who I'll be staying with

and I was just mugged. They
took my phone, my wallet,

and I was actually injured in the process.

I saw your sign of Jehova
in your window and

I was just wondering if I
could possibly come in

and use your phone and
just kind of collect myself.

I know what this must look like.

You follow Jehovah then?

Yes yes, and you can imagine
how pleased I was when

I saw our insignia in your window.

But you don't wear the cross?

No, unfortunately it was ripped from
my neck during the mugging.

Perhaps you'll receive
another next Christmas.

I don't understand, I'm a Christian?

You may well be,
but you certainly don't follow Jehovah.

We don't celebrate Christmas

and we certainly don't
acknowledge the cross. Wolf.

Dear Warwick, Here in sunny
Sidney, loving it...

Love, Julia XX

Yes?

Ah yes, is this Warwick?

Warwick, yes.
Who is this?

Hi Warwick, It's John,
I'm a friend of Julia.

She's not here right now.

Yeah, I know, I actually
just left her in Sydney.

Oh, really?

What I can do for you?

Well, I'm in a bit of a bind actually, uh,

I just arrived back in the country,
and the airport lost my luggage

and on top of everything else I was mugged.

Oh my God.

Yeah yeah and I planned on staying with
my cousin and now nobody's home.

Yes...?

Well, look, I wouldn't normally do
something like this, but ...

... you know, but Julia just kept on and on
about what a great person you are,

and I was gonna call you anyway, so
I just sort of thought that ...

Um... I just thought that maybe,

maybe I could come in and make
some other arrangements.

You're sort of my last resort.

Look, I'd like to help you out, but...

I'm expecting people for dinner.

You'd really...

You'd really be doing me a big favor.

I'm sorry.

Okay, no hard feelings.
Maybe another time.

John?

Yes.

I'm sorry, Julia would never forgive me.
Of course you can come in.

You must be
exhausted. Hi, I'm Warwick.

John.

Can I get you something to drink?
Mineral water? Wine?

Yeah, some wine would be great.

Red or white?

Red.

Thank you.

Here you go.

Thank you.

Great place.

Thank you.

Please have a seat.

Okay, thanks.

So how was Australia?

Oh, it's great, yeah.

It's really beautiful you
know. Beaches were amazing.

I just wish I could've stayed longer.

Travel. One of life's real pleasures.

Yeah it is, isn't it, yeah.

So,what do you do when you're
not traveling?

Ah, I dabble in this and that, you know.

I don't feel like I've really
found my true calling yet.

We all have so many choices
these days, don't we?

So? How's Julia?

She's good. Yeah. Really really good.

How's she feeling about
going back to to work?

Uh, fine, fine.

That's surprising.

Last time we talked, she
was thinking about leaving.

You know, she didn't really talk about
it that much, so I don't know.

Well, who can blame her, I couldn't
do that kind of work. Could you?

No, no I couldn't.

Listen, I need to keep an eye on dinner.
Do you wanna ...?

Oh, yeah sure.

So, have you lived here long?

A while.

Do you live alone?

I do.

Guess you'll be needing the phone.

You said you had to make arrangements.

Thank you.

It's me.
I'll call you back.

No luck?

No.

Carrot?

Oh, I'm okay, thank you.

I hate to ask this, is there any way I
could hang out another half hour or so?

I think my cousin should be home by then.

I know I'm putting you out, I'm so sorry.
It's just been one of those days.

Yes, it's fine. It's fine. Just sit
down, relax, we'll sort this out.

Tell you what, I'll call the airport.
We'll see if we can locate your luggage.

Oh, I wouldn't worry about that .

I left the airport all my
cousin's information,

and they said they
would call me, so...

Yes, but cousin
isn't home, is he?

She.

She's not home.

Listen, if you don't stay
on top of these people,

you'll be the last one
to receive anything.

What airline were you on?

Qantas.

Can you give me Qantas
lost luggage at LAX, please.

Yes, hello. I'm checking on some luggage.
Hang on.

Do you have the
baggage's receipt?

No, it was in my wallet
that was stolen.

No, he doesn't.
What's your last name?

Jones.

John Jones?

My parents.

- It's Jones.
- Not very creative.

Yes, from Sydney.

Sure.

I see.
They don't have anything under Jones.

What's it look like?

- What?
- Your luggage, describe it for me.

Hang on a second.

A black bag, mid size, had a little
red ribbon tied on the handle.

Okay, if I describe the
luggage, will that...

And when will he be back?

This person obviously
doesn't want to deal with me.

Don't worry about
it, just hang up.

Don't worry about it.

He says his supervisor will be back in an
hour, you sure your cousin will be home?

I don't even know, she's not expecting me,
I was gonna surprise her.

This is becoming far too difficult.

Why don't you stay for dinner?

We can call the supervisor
in an hour or so. What do you think?

I think that's a great idea. Thank you.

Okay, look, I'll call you back.
Okay. Thank you. Yes.

Well, that's all settled.

Now, I need to get ready,
You make yourself at home.

There's more wine in the kitchen if
you'd like, and I won't be a moment.

John?

Yeah.

Tell me, I have to know everything
that you and Julia did in Sydney.

Don't leave out any details.

Ah, we just sorta hung out.

How did you meet?

Through a mutual friend.

I met her at a birthday party.

But you spent some time together.

Yeah, it was just...

It was more towards the end of the trip.

Look, I wished I could've

hung out with her longer, you know.
She's such a sweet girl.

And, she suggested you visit me?

Yeah, she really
thought we'd get along.

That is so Julia.

But strange too.

What is?

I spoke to her few days ago,
she didn't mention you.

Very strange, maybe she's just forgot.

Oh, that's unlikely, she
usually tells me everything.

It's just odd she didn't...

mention you at all.

I hope she mentions me
the next time you guys talk.

You know, you're right,
let's give her a call.

I'll get the phone.

I'm sure Julia would love to know
we're both here together.

I think it's about 9 o'clock in the
morning, Sydney time. She should be up.

You know what? I think she's been doing
yoga on Wednesdays.

I don't even know if she'll be there.

But it's not Wednesday.

It's Wednesday here, but it's Thursday
morning over there, right?

You're right. Of course it is, they're
a day ahead of us.

It's Thursday.

It's ringing.

Answering machine.

Hi Jules, It's me, I'm here with John.

Who waves hello. Yes.
He's had a nightmare journey.

I wish you had told
me that he was coming.

I could've prepared.

Anyway.

I hope you're well, give me
a call when you can.

Bye.

She must still be asleep.
Listen, I've gotta keep cooking.

Make yourself comfortable.
My guests should be here soon.

You okay?

I'm good. Oh! Uh...

Where's your restroom?

Oh, it's down here, come here.

It's right down the hall, second door
on the left.

-Thank you.
-You're welcome.

What's wrong? You're limping.

Ah, I sprained my ankle. And, it's still
just kinda healing.

Oh no, sprained ankle.
That's no good, John.

You weren't drunk, were you, John?

Come on, admit it.

I've been watching you plow into the
red tonight.

I'm more of a white man myself.

Red's a bit heavy for my constitution.
A bit too rustic.

Plus, it stains the teeth.

Have you ever been to Romania?

Romanians drink a lot of red wine. They all
have red teeth.

Or maybe they eat a lot of red meat,
I don't know, but they got red teeth

That's the Romanians.

Magnificent.

So, who all's coming tonight?

Some old friends.

What do they do?

Well, one is an artist, a journalist,
a lawyer.

A lawyer?

Yes. Roman.
Brilliant.

I keep telling him, he should change
sides, start his own practice.

It'll make more money, but he
won't do it. He's got principles.

So what is he? A tax attorney?

God, no. He's a prosecutor. He works
for the District Attorney's Office.

He's very talented.

You've planned a really nice dinner.

And, uh... I'm exhausted.
I think I'm gonna go.

I'm just, I'm so tired.

Yeah, and I think my cousin should be
home now.

No, no. Don't be ridiculous.
I can't send you out there homeless.

Oh, you're not sending me—
I just don't want to ruin your dinner.

I'm exhausted, I'm tired.

I'm nowhere near as interesting as
the guests you're gonna be having.

- I'm gonna go.
- No, sit down, sit down. Listen.

This is an informal dinner.

Bit of wine, relaxing conversation,
you don't have to do a thing.

My guests are very amusing.

Trust me.
You'll be captivated.

Really.

So, what time is uh...
what time is everything getting started?

Well, it's supposed to be at 8, but as
usual, they're probably be late.

...an armed robbery took place
including a $300,000...

That's not really difficult to be punctual.

Set your watch towards it, make lists.

It's not that difficult.

Warwick, could you be quiet
for just one second, please?

It's planning. Plain and simple.

Time management.

-It's—
-Shut the fuck up!

I beg your pardon?

Look, you might be a friend of Julia's,
but I won't be spoken to that way.

I think maybe you better leave.

There's your fucking Julia.

...still searching for a
man maybe responsible

for a daring bank
robbery this afternoon.

One of the bank's employees identified the
man as Los Angeles resident, John Taylor.

Taylor walked into a suburban
branch of the First National,

held up the teller and walked away
with an estimated take of $300,000.

Taylor has prior convictions for both
assault and armed robbery.

He was last seen exiting a
convenience store in Silver Lake.

Police advise that Taylor is extremely
dangerous and should not be approached.

In other news, the Commissioner of Police
Corruption unveiled his plan—

Sit down.

Sit down!

I don't mind if you smoke.

You don't mind if I smoke?

You can't kill me,
I'm having a dinner party.

I will cut your throat.

Put you in the bathtub.

I'll eat all your food

and I'll sleep in your bed.

Do you understand that?

I want you to get on the phone.

I want you to call your homo friends
and tell them to fuck off.

Okay.

Hello Rupert, it's me.

Yes, I know you're late.

But it doesn't matter now,
I have to cancel.

I have a... I have a terrible migraine.

Yeah, could you call the
others and apologize for me?

Thanks. No, no. That's okay.
I'll see you tomorrow. Bye.

Good boy.

Oh my God.

You're... you're bleeding.

I can take care of it. No no no,
please please, let me just...

I gotta get a cloth... and some water.

Ohh, good.

What the fuck are you doing?

Cleaning up your nasty mess.

I'm not fucking around, do you
understand me?

Do you understand me?

Yes.

Are you up to date?

Oh, yeah.

You must be devastated.

Yeah, but I'll get over it.

Man, it was brutal.

We're 5 games into the season.

I hope you didn't have any money on it.

That would be illegal.

Right.

What is that?

Witness statements.

We have a lead witness, already?

Yeah, the bank teller.
She's the one that IDed Taylor.

Says Taylor had come around
on several occasions.

Really?

Taylor doesn't have an account,
he just liked the look of her, apparently.

He asked her out at least 3 times.

She took his number and never called.
John stopped coming around.

Until today.

It's his home phone number.

My feeling is, either he's an idiot,

or,

the romantic angle was a
cover to case the bank.

Well, he's an idiot either way.

You don't give somebody your number
and then rob them.

He did wear a wig and sunglasses.

That was cunning.

Why'd you do it?

Do what?

Steal.

Why not earn it honestly?

It doesn't matter to me. I'm just curious.

There's always ways to earn money.

Yeah?

What fuck do you
know about anything?

I'm just saying, you know.

Stealing's not the answer.

Okay, here's how this is gonna go.

I'm gonna kill you.

That's the decison I've already made.

But if you're smart,
you might be able to change my mind.

For starters, you can keep your
ignorant-ass opinions to yourself.

Because you don't fucking know me.

So as long as you can
follow my instructions,

and stay out of my
way until morning,

You won't get hurt.

You'll just be my accommodations
for the evening.

Okay?

Got it?

I told them I was preparing duck.

They knew tonight was special.

They should be here.

They're so unreliable.
I'm always on time for them.

I'm always on time.

I hope we start getting
a stream of phone calls.

"Oh Warwick,
we're running late."

"I'm so sorry, Warwick,
we're feeling tired, we can't make it."

It's a cheeky little drop, isn't it?

Well, Rupert and I have seen it twice.
I can't wait until it comes out on DVD.

Why haven't you seen it?
Really? Well, you have to go.

That's very good Rupert.
You're quite the mimic.

John!

Excuse me.

Monica, how are you doing there?
Excuse me, Rupert.

Sorry about that.

Everybody. Everybody.

This is our new friend, John.
Everybody say hello to John.

Hello John.

You drifted off there for a moment.

- Are you alright?
- We were worried about you.

Yes, we were.

Were what?

Were worried about you.

Get your fucking hands off me, you freak!

Fuck you!

Manners.

You were hungry, Rupert.
Shovel it down you little piggy.

So, Roman.

Tried any good cases recently?

I'm sure John would be interested
in the judicial process.

You know I can't discuss that, Warwick.

It's not ethical.

Oh, come on. It's just us.
Us and these 4 walls.

Yes, now, that's very boring, Roman.

After all we have a
real criminal right here at our own table.

So, you're new to LA, are you John?

Yes, he's just flown in
from Sydney, Australia.

Oh! Good day, mate.

Hey, Chelsea, Chelsea please.

Please control yourself.

Monica and I went to that Caravaggio
exhibition, last week?

Oh, yes, how was it?

Amazing.

They only had a few pieces,

but they fixed two separate light
sources to each painting.

One would fade, the other would come up.

Yes, it illuminated the paintings
in real detail, staggering.

I don't think I know Caravaggio.

You're kidding.

When did he paint?

Well, around 1600.

He's quite an interesting
character, actually.

He was degenerate and a murderer.

Was he?

Well, yes, yes. But
fascinating, besides that—

He'd put most of today criminals to shame.

Sounds frightening.

I'm sure I have a book on him
somewhere. Hang on.

I'll see if I can find it.

Ah, here it is.

Oh, my god. Chelsea.

John. John!

Yes, I know, poor kitten. Here.

Are you going to apologize to Chelsea?

Excuse me?

You knocked her down
and then you trampled her.

Well?

I'm sorry. I didn't see you.

So John, what's new and interesting?

What's new is that I'm sitting here
with a fucking lunatic.

Nothing interesting about that.

I've seen darker days than this, Warwick.

Look at this.
You'll like this.

This is midnight.

You know, Roman, I think I'm finally
starting to capture your likeness.

And the finale.

Don't you fret.
There's a place for you on every page.

Do we got history of this stuff?

What do you mean? Like...

For the month. Tapes
from the whole month.

Whatever they had, we've got downstairs.

Okay. Call the property room.
Tell them I'm coming down.

You are the most beautiful creature
I've ever laid eyes on. You're exquisite.

I'm sure you tell all the girls that.

You're such a lady's man.

It's different with you. You're special.

How can I believe that?

That's true. There've been many women
who've traveled the road to Warwick,

It's an interesting road indeed.

I can't be blamed
for the love I've shared.

I know, but what about Julia?

She's in Australia.

But you're with her, she's...

She's...

She's a ship in the night.
A child of the loving universe.

My heart chakra is pointed at you.

It's unbridled. Come to Warwick.

Warwick.

This is extremely boring, Warwick.
There are other people here you know.

Oh, I forgotten myself.

Is everyone not enjoying themeselves?

I can't speak for everyone here, but
I'm having a great time.

Warwick, don't we have the
last party on Super 8?

You're right, we do.
I'll show it to you. I'll show it to you.

Oh, Roman, come here.
Give me a hand with John.

Right, ready?
1, 2, 3.

I wish you'd been here for this, you missed
a kicking party.

I did my own hair and makeup.

That's so beautiful.
It's so beautiful.

Pinch me, Roman, I'm having a party!

Hey you! Oh my goodness.

Everybody's here! Everybody's here.

Rupert, keep these people occupied.
Or I'll keep you occupied.

Hello, Chelsea.

Isn't this great?

I was worried they was gonna get going
but this is fucking great.

You're having a good time?

Oh, lighten up, John, it's a party.

Well, he doesn't look very happy.

Oh, he just needs to get
into the festive spirit.

Hey, Chelsea, Rupert, come here. Come here.

Ready?
1, 2, 3. Champagne!

Hey, John.

Oh, yeah.
Almost time, isn't it?

Hope you feeling photogenic.

Warwick, can I join the conga line?

What?

Can I join the conga line?

I suppose we've got a few more minutes.

But you have to drink a
cocktail if you want to be on time.

What's in it?

You want it, or don't you?

Look, it's up to you. I've gotta go
prepare for the photo in a second.

I'll drink it.

Hey Rupert, make an inebriator for John.

Ok, now drink it down.

That's it.

Looks to me like you're pretty ripe, John.
Conga!

John, look what you've done.
You've cause such a ruckus.

How are you? I didn't even see you come in.

Yes, I'm fantastic!
What? Yes, I love you.

Yes, I love you!
Say it again. Thank you.

You I've been waiting for, huh?
Shake it.

Come on, shake it. Shake it.
Give it to me.

How much have you had to drink?
Get away from me! You're a whore.

Hey, how's it going?

Yeah. No, no, it's more than I expected,
really. Yeah, It's a good turnout.

No, it's been great.
It's a great party.

Oh, yes, yes. Of course. Hold on.

Everybody, everybody.

So did you enjoy yourself?

Yes I did.

Sorry about Kelly and Adam,

they sort of always bring a posse with
them whenever they come over.

Oh, it's fine.

So, am I staying here tonight?

Well, I always
thought that you would.

Yeah?

So, you're not sick of me yet?

No.

Not yet.

Good.

Oh, that reminds me, I've got—

It's okay, it's okay.

No, no...

It's okay.

Over here!

I'm over here!

Hello?

Hello?

Hello.

Hello?

Yes.

Hello, Mr.Wilson, I'm sorry
I wasn't sure if you were here.

Your friend...

Are you alright?

He's fine. He's fine.
He's a little drunk.

He's been in character all evening.

What do you mean
"in character"?

We've just come
from a costume party.

He insisted on staying in character by
jumping into the pool.

You can see, it's becoming very tiresome.

I thought he may have be in pain
from the sounds he was making.

Well, I did tell him not
to mix his liquors.

I'm so sorry we disturbed you.

But I think we're winding down now.
I promise there won't be anymore noise.

Well, if you're sure
everything's alright.

Yes, thank you, I'm so sorry.

You'll have to excuse me.

Okay. I'll let you go.

Okay. Take care.

It's okay, you just
had too much to drink.

I'm sorry, is there
something else?

Are you sure he's alright?

He seems to be trying to pull his mask off.

Thank God! I've been trying to get him to
do that all night.

He's really very drunk, I think maybe it's
time for him to go to bed, and me too.

So. If there nothing else...

I guess not.

Okay. Alright. Well then good night!

Good night.

Good night.

Good night.

Off to bed with you, young man.

What if she goes and calls the police
now, Warwick? What are you going to do?

Well he'd probably just break down.

He's not the most
masculine man in the world.

Shut up!

We've really got to think about this now.

The next time someone comes in...

Shut up!

You know what you really should be
concerned about Warwick is his foot.

I think it needs some attention.

Attention? Yes.

I'll stop your mangled and bleeding foot
from dripping on my floors

once and for all.

It's not covered.

I told you that already.

Is this an elective procedure?

Baby, it's gonna be okay.

It's not okay. It's a fucking joke.

Can you even go to work tomorrow?

Yeah, I'll be fine.

You can't keep taking those.

Those painkillers, if you keep
putting those in your body

your liver's gonna shut down.

Okay, doctor.

This is fucking miserable.

We've gotta get some money.

No.

Alright, come here.
Please, baby, just come here.

You're not gonna steal any money.

It's just not gonna happen.

I've done it before.

Yeah, you went to prison for it.

I'm not going back.

It's gonna be okay.

These are both are pretty good.

I can't decide.
Which do you prefer?

I'll have to decide later.

What'd you do to me?

Nice move, Roman.

Warwick.

Warwick, please listen to me.

I'm listening.

Please don't do this, Warwick.

Okay?

Please just let me go.

Warwick, I'll do anything.

Warwick.

I wouldn't do that, Roman.

Every action has an equal
and opposite reaction, John.

What?

That's physics.

It's nature's law.

Oh, sweetheart.
No tears.

What I can do
to make it better?

Please let me go.

Just please don't kill me.

You are my guest,
and I'm glad you're here.

But you've only got yourself to blame.

So, where is she now?

Who?

Julia.

She's in Bangkok.

She might be going to Hanoi, she
hasn't decided yet.

Who hasn't decided?

Julia.

Who's that?

That's the girl you met
in Australia, silly.

I've never been to Australia, Warwick.

You mean you lied?

Yeah. Yeah, I lied.

Doesn't say much for your character.

And you're Julia, Warwick.

What?

You're Julia.

Roman, and Rupert, and Monica...

It's all you, Warwick.

As fascinating as this is, John,
I do have others to attend to.

I can't be an ungracious host.

Anyone for a final cocktail?

Monica? Oh, right I forgot.
Would you prefer dessert wine? Coffee?

Suit yourself.
Rupert?

Save the bottle for Roman.

So what now?

Now it's quiet time.

John, that means...

Time to reflect.

That means being quiet, alright?

It's not very entertaining.
I mean, I'm still your guest, aren't I?

Of course you are.

Well?

What do you have in mind?

Wait...

If you win, I'll grant you your freedom.

But what do I get when you lose?

You've got my life, isn't that enough?

Can't give you much
more than that, Warwick.

Yes, that's true.

But I already have that.

Have you ever played chess before?

Yeah, once or twice.

Okay.

When you wanna move, you
need tell me which letter and

corresponding number.

For example if you wanna
move your bishop, you'll say

bishop to king 3.

Now if wanted to move my
rook, I'll go to knight 7.

Okay, so what's the
best strategy?

Well, that's the thing. I mean, you
don't control your opponent's pieces,

you only control your own.

But if you know your opponent,
and you know his weakness...

and you plan right, then you can influence
your opponent's behavior.

I see, so...

If I listen to you, and I
pretend to be fascinated...

and you think that
you're teaching me chess,

then you'll make love to me?

Yeah, nice try. You can get that anytime.

You don't have to pretend to be interested.

What can you do for me?

What can you do?

Surely the satisfaction of winning should
be enough for a man like you.

No.

No, to the victor goes the spoils.

How will you spoil me, John?

I don't know, Warwick, how
would you like me to spoil you?

Let me think.

King.

Yes.

Although the entire game
revolves around the king,

It's the least powerful piece on the board.

See, its movements are limited.

It can only go to here. It can
only do this, one at a time.

Sometimes, the pawn is more important.

It's the most ordinary piece on the board.

It's simplest in function,

but if used properly...

can be absolutely devastating.

It may look like you have the upper hand.

but if you're not paying attention,
then your opponent can blindside you...

In one move.

That's the beauty of this game.

I know what you can do for me
when you lose.

- Yeah?
- Yes.

It's my move, isn't it?

Yes, but listen.

Alright, queen to G6.

Okay, so. When I win—

Checkmate.

What?

Checkmate.

How did that happen?

How did you manage to do that?

Come on Warwick, untie me.

But I had the perfect prize.

You said you would untie me
if I won, Warwick. Let's go.

You've played this before.
You cheated.

You're a fucking liar, Warwick.

I may be many things, John.
But one thing I'm not is a liar.

You're free to go.

You really are a worthless little
man, aren't you, John?

You showed no conviction, or fight at all.

You let me do whatever I
wanted to you. That's exactly what I did.

In fact, I even think you enjoyed it.

You're nothing.

John, you're disposable, forgettable.

A supporting player.

You're nothing.

It's like you don't even exist.

Where are you going? John,
What are you doing?

John, put that down, John.
John, stop, please.

You treat me like an animal.

You involve me in your
fucked up world.

You take away my dignity.

And you have the gall to say that
I'm nothing?

But it's true.

Whoops!

Hey, John.

Check out this piece of ass, huh?

Love me!

Love me!

Warwick, you know you need
to take two of those.

No, he doesn't.

He knows what he's doing.

Does he?

I know you like it, you never
know when to leave, Monica.

But he needs to function at work.

Morton, what are you doing?

Lieutenant, did I wake you?

No, I'm up.

You're early.

Yeah, I know, I'm sorry.

You're gonna want to see this.

Alright, come on.

Yeah, go on. Sit down. I'll be right there.

Yeah, I'm positive now.

John Taylor had help with this.

One of the bank tellers
was in on it with him.

Really?

Can I use your TV?

I don't have one.

Ah, I forgot.

Alright.

This is 3 weeks before the robbery.

Taylor comes in, fills out a deposit slip.

And cases the bank.
That's it.

How do you know that's Taylor?

The tattoo.

It's him.

According to the teller,
Simone De Marchi...

This woman.

according to Simone, John comes in
and asks her out.

But as you can see, he doesn't
go anywhere near her console.

Here's the robbery itself.
That's John waiting in line.

The teller asks him to come over.

He doesn't go.

He lets the customer behind through.

He waits. Now,
why does he do that?

Because he wants
Simone to serve him.

Exactly.

Now, she doesn't trip the silent alarm.

She doesn't put a dye pack in.
She doesn't give him marked bills.

When she was in the back room she
could've done any one of these things.

Or let someone know.

She had every opportunity.
She does nothing.

And there's this, right. A couple months
back, she put in for a 2 week vacation.

- Guess when it starts.
- Today.

Today.

She lied about John coming on to her

because she needs a
reason to ID him to us.

They're in it together.

Or if they were...

She keeps the money, he gets caught.

Nice girl.

Got any leads on Taylor?

Well, if we follow Simone, we find Taylor.

You think he's
gonna go after her?

Well when he finds out
what she did to him, yeah.

Is she under surveillance?

Yeah, Valdez is staking out her place.

One of the bank's employee identified the
man as Los Angeles resident, John Taylor.

Hi, um...

I'm here to check on a reservation.
I'm meeting my wife at 9.

Just want to make sure
everything's booked.

Name?

Simone Pryer.

Yeah, It's booked. Ford Sedan.
9 am.

Thank you, have a good day.

If I listen to you and I
pretend to be fascinated...

You don't have to pretend to be interested.

Uh, yes. I'm confirming a reservation,
for this morning.

Sure, Los Angeles.

First name, Simone.

Nothing?

Okay. Thank you.

Simone Pryer.

No?
Okay, thank you.

You do? What location is this?

It's a 9 am pickup, correct?

8 o'clock?

It's gonna be okay.

What's happening?

Nothing, sir.

A light went on about
20 minutes ago.

That's something.

It still amazes me.

What's that?

These people. They've gotta know, there's
no chance they're gonna get away with this.

If there's a way, someone's always
gonna try it. It's human nature.

That's not it. There's something wrong with
their wiring. They're fucked in the head.

Why can't they just get it together?

You'd be out of job
if they did.

Law enforcement is more than
a job, detective.

Okay, here she comes.

Do you know what the real problem is?
There's no deterrent.

Look at southeast Asia,

You spit in public in Singapore,
that's grounds for arrest.

You get caught with drugs, that's death.

I mean, that's pretty extreme, isn't it?

Is it?

You check Singapore's crime statistics.

People need to understand their
government's fucking serious.

The US is a liberal playground,
am I right?

Hey, she's turning.

Come on!

Move your car!

Shut up!

Move it!

Now she could be anywhere.

Should we keep going up?

You go up. I'll search the lower levels.

Okay.

Keep your radios on.

Unexpected?

Baby? I was so worried about you.

Don't.

What happened to your face?

Hey listen, I don't even
know how you found me.

I mean, you don't have a cell.
I've been crazy, going out of my mind.

I've been freaked out. The cops are
all over you.

I didn't know what to do, I swapped cars.
I was gonna come pick you up, baby.

I'm so happy to see—

You look like you're feeling better.

No pain this morning?

- No, I still... I mean...
- Just stop.

Okay, Simone?

What?

Why'd you do this?

Because you do it.

I do what?

You do the bank job, I didn't
even have to persuade you.

What did you think? You're a
career criminal.

What'd you think was gonna happen?

I wanted to trust you.

Look baby, maybe we
can still do that.

I mean, you know the truth now.
We're not so different.

But what they do is they
give a team half a goal.

Hey!

Hey!

...actually you're gonna
make money on that.

You need me. You can't get across
the border. You can't do this without me.

If you want to come in
with me on this, I can get...

I know I can get us some
better points out of it.

You can join now. But the thing is, if you
put our money on one of the teams there...

Hello?

That's not enough to exit.

Give me the keys.

Morton, what's happening?

Lieutenant, we've got Simone. We checked
the car, she doesn't have the money.

No sign of Taylor.

Right.

We're gonna take
her down to the station.

Have you seen Taylor?

Not yet. You check the roof and
stairwells, then you go on back.

I'll meet you there, I've got
some stuff to attend to locally.

But you don't
have a ride, sir.

Like I said, it's local.

I'll call you if I need you.

Okay.

You didn't really think you were
gonna get away with it, did you?

I swear to god if I get arrested,
I'm taking you down with me.

I can describe every single
detail of your house.

I'm a police officer. You really think
anybody's gonna believe you?

Yeah, I do.

You've got panache,
I'll give you that.

Although you don't know
how to hold your liquor.

So what now, Warwick?

Well, assuming you have the money,
I think we can come to an understanding.

Or I can simply shoot you
while you're trying to escape.

The thing is, you've never
shot anybody, haven't you?

Haven't I?

It's up to you. My detectives
will be down any minute.

Customs will be tough.
This will come in handy at the border.

Thanks.

No need to thank me, John.
You make things very entertaining.

Bon voyage.

I've been thinking about
John Taylor.

Oh yeah?
What about him?

At the parking garage. You were down there.
I'm amazed he got past you.

Yeah, well. I guess I'm getting old.

I wonder where he went.

It's been a couple of months, he's
probably across the country by now.

Or...

Or out of the country.

Could be.

Don't feel bad about this.
There's worse guys out there than Taylor.

And Simone De Marchi's
trial is coming up, right?

You did good work there.

You never met
him before, right?

Taylor?

No.

Never?

Of course not, why?

I just thought your
paths might've crossed.

He's had convictions, maybe...

Maybe you met him at the station.

And you never met him socially, right?

He's not exactly my crowd, detective.

Then, um...

This might come as a bit of a shock.

My God.

It's quite disturbing, isn't it?

I think technology's
getting out of control.

What?

If a guy like Taylor can make
something as professional as this—

Wait. Are you suggesting that
Taylor manufactured this?

Of course.

This is a Polaroid.

A positive exposure.
This isn't some Photoshop mockup.

It has to be, what other
explanation is there?

Besides the obvious one?

Ben, you've known me
for what? 10 years.

Six.

Six years.

Do you really think I would
associate with this man?

I can't ignore it.

I'm sorry, Warwick. I have
to have this analyzed.

Good. I'd like to know how he did it too.

The other thing is...

Yeah.

A witness came forward

who said that Taylor tried to break into
a house on the night of the robbery.

Oh?

She said she saw him again the next
morning. Outside her neighbor's house.

Outside your house.

Is this the lady who lives behind me?

Yeah.

Morton, do you know how many
times that woman calls this station?

The lady is batshit.

Yeah. I know about her.

That's why I didn't take this
seriously. Until now.

Looks like it was taken at your place.

It's a white couch. A white couch.

Why you? If this a fake, why
put you in the photograph?

He's mocking us.

So, where did he get your picture?

The paper. Last year's Christmas party.

You're the one who showed me his file,
he's resourceful, right?

Tomorrow we'll be probably be looking
at a Polaroid of you and him

sitting together in a
fucking hottub.

Yeah.

Except...

Except what, Ben.

I'd be at fault if I didn't
investigate this thoroughly.

And so you should.
You're a fine detective.

Now you'll have to excuse me.

I need to take a look
around your house.

Okay.

Okay, good.

You know.

Ben, I can appreciate your diligence.

Coming here to talk to
me must've been tough.

but are you really gonna bring a sea
of cops over to my house?

Ignoring this is
not the solution.

I agree.

So?

What do you have in mind?

How about dinner?

When?

You can come tonight.

I already have some friends
coming over. I'm cooking.

It might even be fun.
You can scour the place.

I really had something
more official in mind.

I'm being civil, Ben.
I don't have to be.

I'd like to maintain our friendship.

Alright.

Dinner sounds good.

Great.

8 o'clock?

Sure.

Oh, and Ben...

You drink red or white wine?

Oh, red.

Fantastic.
