Original subtitles

Oh my god.

Why are you running, Carlo?

Mr. Murata.

Nobody blackmails me.

Especially a punk-ass kid like you. No, sir. No. I wasn't going to blackmail

you. I just need help. I wanted to... You want me to buy your silence?

Look.

Whatever I saw back there, I promise I won't tell anyone.

Oh. I know you won't, Kyla.

My name is Alex Walker.

I'm ex-DEA.

One of my first assignments took me to an isolated beach right here on this

island. Sold a little I had and bought myself a gift shop.

Just peace, no stress, no drama.

Boy, was I wrong.

That's good. But in yaoyan, you need to square your stance.

And drop your shoulders like this.

So drop the shoulders.

Sorry. Get away from me. Are you okay?

Experience over youth, my brother.

Why do I come here?

You hired me to train you real young.

Yeah, to get me in shape, not to whoop my ass, man.

Besides, I'm gonna start dating again. I gotta get in shape, you know what I

mean?

You? What do you mean, you?

One of my Johnny Loves Me?

No, um, it's just that I thought you were, you know, over all that stuff.

Oh, that was like a relic.

No, no. If I were your age, I'd want to spend my time with my family.

Or grandchildren.

Grandchildren? How old do you think I am? You know what? Don't even answer

that. Why don't you just throw me back in the ring? You can kick me square in

the nuts. It'll be less painful.

Sorry, I didn't mean to say that. I'm kidding.

Thanks. I can actually use the word. Yeah, me and you both.

All right, I'll see you tonight, right?

Tonight? Yeah, fight night.

Torres versus Dugan, live from Hawaii. I told you about this.

Bring your wife.

Yeah, we'll be there. Good, because it's going to be epic, all right? I got a big

screen TV. I got pizza rolls, beer.

I imported buffalo wings.

Hey, Alex, there's something I want to talk to you about. Shoot, Bubba.

I know you know friends who are... Saddle like this guy's early. The guy...

I gotta go.

I'll see you tonight. I'll see you tonight.

Yeah, sure.

You guys having a good time?

You having fun?

Make sure and grab yourself a beer.

Listen up, people.

Fight's getting ready to start, and you don't have to move right now, but you

may want to find yourself a seat in a little bit before the fight starts.

Remember, that's not it. No, no, absolutely not. Oh, that says reserved

on the back. I brought this all the way from the lobby.

Hey, look at that.

Yeah. They smell funny. That's because they're authentic buffalo wings.

Buffalo? Yeah. No, not buffalo. It's chicken. We call them buffalo wings.

Why? I don't know.

It's an American thing.

Americans are so confusing.

Okay, but the point is, is that this is a special recipe.

I had them specially flown in from somewhere in New York just for tonight.

I think that they were in the plane for way too long. All right, stop being

funny. Hold that. Watch.

These are definitely not good. Don't eat those. Get some chips or something. Hey,

no, no.

Beer?

Where'd you get that?

Hey, man.

Hey, wow.

The place looks great, Alex. Thank you very much.

You really went all out, huh?

That's a new TV. Yeah, no, I borrowed it, but I gotta be honest with you, man,

I'm nervous. I have not hosted since I've been on the island, but it's going

well.

Hot wings, I want. I got it, I got it.

Garnish some of these. Go get a beer, man. Get a beer. Okay. Guy, grab a beer.

All right.

Uh, can you... Hey.

I heard you're having a party.

It's more of an informal get-together.

Well, that's probably why I didn't get any invitation.

I assume you meant to invite me.

Well, that's why you're the chief, huh? Your assumption was correct.

I thought you're not allowed to throw parties here.

It's against hotel rules. Well, it's not really. It's really not a party. Oh,

okay. Get it. Yeah. Yeah.

Get together. We got it. Come on, then.

No, no. No, no, no, no. Normally, I don't watch boxing. I find it very

barbaric.

Oh, so comfy.

The best seat in the house.

How about some hot wings?

Well, thanks.

Alex. What?

Aren't we supposed to be watching the fight? We are watching the fight.

But it's not the fight. Hey.

What did you are you pushing stuff?

This is a telenovela stupid Satellite this guy man. I'm gonna kill him. You

know what so I'm not paid for this. I love this show We're not watching this

show other martyrs when

Okay be right there Party's over for us. They found a body

unidentified male early 20s 5 foot 10 145 pounds. Okay, where at a parking

structure next to, uh, Rinaldo's gym.

God, Rinaldo's gym.

That's my gym.

By the report!

Yeah, it's my favorite show.

You know the victim, Alex?

Carlos Guzman.

He was training me at the gym.

Someone did quite a number on this guy.

Strangled, and by the marks on his neck, I'd say from behind.

What do you know about him?

He's a good guy.

Like I said, I hired him to train me, so... I mean, it seemed like he needed

money. Did he say anything to you about what was going on with him? I think he

was trying to.

He said he needed to talk to me, but I was too busy trying to... throw a party.

Hey, Alex.

This isn't your fault.

I'm going to find out who did this. I promise.

You're damn right I'm going to.

Alex, Alex, just let us do our job.

This man was a friend of mine.

Well, if you want to help, you might want to start with this.

What is that?

Kill shot.

They found it in his coat pocket.

Looks like an admission token.

Admission to what?

I don't remember asking all of you into my office.

Excuse the intrusion, Chief, but we need a favor.

We need a warrant to access phone records for a murder victim.

For a victim? That shouldn't be a problem. You just go through the normal

procedure. If we do that, it'll just take too much time, Chief.

But if I make some calls?

That'll really help us out. Good.

We don't have a lot to go on, and we're worried that Liz will dry out if we

wait.

And why are you here?

Here as a friend.

You know, I always welcome your assistance here, but if you really want

to help us, Manila just sent us a report about this new drug from Singapore

hitting the streets, and they're offering a $20,000 reward for a

conviction. Now, with your expertise as a former... Listen to me, Chief.

I'm going to find out who killed Carlo, with or without the police, so...

Then work together we shall.

Guy and I will access his phone records you and Ernie will build a portfolio.

Okay. Thanks chief. Let's go guy

Fuck

right next to the tree man. How am I supposed to get out? Sorry How you want

to play this good cop bad cop How about cop, not cop? Remember, Alex, you're

just an observer.

Right, right, right.

That's a good cover.

Not a cover, not a cover. Personating a police officer is a crime. You know

that. I got you, man. I got you.

Partner.

Yes?

Mrs. Guzman, I'm Detective Alamarez.

May we have a...

A few minutes of your time.

Mrs. Guzman, we apologize for intruding at such a sensitive time.

I can't believe he's gone.

Who would do such a thing?

We have a child coming.

Miss Guzman,

I'm going to find out who killed him.

I'm sorry. I didn't get your name.

Mr. Alex Walker knew Carlo and is helping us with our investigation.

I knew him from the gym.

Mrs. Guzman, do you know if Carlo had any disagreements with anyone?

Make any enemies?

No, no. Everybody loved Carlo.

Volleyball, swimming, tennis.

That's incredible.

I know he was a great kickboxer, but I had no idea.

Carlo loved sports.

He loved playing them, watching them, betting on them.

Maybe a little too much.

How do you mean, Mrs. Usman?

Carlo made a lot of bad bets and he owed a lot of money.

How much are we talking about?

Enough that we're losing this home.

We have nothing left.

Carlo tried to take on more work. He even tried to win some money by entering

a tournament at some club.

A tournament?

Do you remember the club's name?

No, no, no. He only mentioned it once.

Is this it?

Yes. I think that is it.

Kid who's a martial arts expert is involved in some sort of secret

underground tournament called Pill Shot.

I think it's pretty clear what we're dealing with here. This is the

underground fight club.

And somehow that club got him killed.

We gotta find this place.

You sure this is the place?

I ran his phone data.

I found that the cell tower is paying three times in the last week when Carlo

was texting his wife.

Take a look.

Doesn't look like a security guard.

More like a bouncer.

Yeah. You go flashing that badge and he's gonna ask for a warrant.

By the time you get one, they'll be packed and gone.

Okay, then we go undercover.

But it doesn't mean it's cowboy time.

What are you talking about?

Y'all feel something?

Yeah, mind if we take a look inside?

Sorry, it's invitation only.

Oh.

Wait here.

Shady as hell.

Yeah.

Most places full of surprises.

Who the hell are you?

We were invited.

Rocco Morada.

This is my place. And what are your names?

Don't answer that. It doesn't matter, and I don't want to know.

I can see the potential.

I can build the two of you as a double act.

Yin and yang, east meets west, beauty and the beast.

Excuse me, who's the beast?

Okay, let's see what you can do.

Here.

Suit up.

We'll put you in an exhibition match.

Competition starts in 30 minutes. Competition?

You've got the token, don't you? Yeah. The token is an invitation to compete.

You can enter the arena through that door over there.

The door with the big red sign that says arena?

Gold star.

Guy, you ever been inside a fight club before?

that I can remember.

Well, you wouldn't forget it. It's brutal. It's ugly. Bare-knuckled

fighting, broken noses, popped-out eyeballs, blood everywhere.

Uh-oh.

Oh, man.

I suppose somebody saw it.

It's a badminton club. What the hell is this?

Makes sense.

Philippines are all about the amazing sports.

Boxing, basketball, badminton. All right, they call it kill shot. Why would

you call a badminton club kill shot? A kill shot is a type of serve in

badminton just like a fight in volleyball.

It's not a fight club. It's slow tennis.

Hey, badminton's very serious in the Philippines. People live and die for it.

Apparently. What if this place has nothing to do with Carlos' death?

On the day he died, when I was walking out of the gym, I saw a strange guy.

That strange guy, he owns this club. Okay, so what's the connection?

There's only one way to find out.

What, you actually want to play in the tournament? We're already players, all

right? This is a perfect cover for us, right? We get them to accept us, we get

them to talk, we find out what's going on here.

Do you even know how to play badminton?

We play this at American Picnics. How hard can it be?

Okay.

Now, taking center court, giving up for the currently undefeated Mad Dogs of

Badminton, the Cebu Crushers!

And, hoping for a miracle, please welcome two newcomers, the Matan

Dalgonas!

What's Dalgonas? Black coffee with a spot of milk.

That's... She's racist.

Just a little bit.

Just a little bit.

All right, here we go.

I got back. I got back.

What do you mean it's out?

How can you not see that? It was right there.

That went well.

Yeah, remind me never to attend a Filipino picnic.

Uh-oh.

Not your day, was it, boys?

Still, you showed a lot of heart.

I'd like to offer you a spot in the tournament.

You want us to play?

Oh, absolutely.

The crowd loved it.

First round starts tomorrow.

Cash prize for the winner, $50,000.

Fifty thousand. Fifty thousand.

Alex, that's like 900 U.S.

I know, but that's a lot of money to me. You've been here over two years. How do

you not know that by now? I know that, man. I was testing you.

Okay.

Man,

but the crowd loves him.

They love seeing an American getting his ass whooped by locals.

It's good for business.

More betting, more drinking.

Some tape on it said CG.

It's got to be Carlos.

We should see what's inside.

It might be something we could go on. Can you pick a lock?

Well, yeah.

Why do you have... Don't answer that.

Heck of a game out there, guys, huh?

You mean nice slaughter.

And that wasn't a game. That was an embarrassment.

You are an embarrassment.

Well, maybe you guys could give me some tips, huh? Teach me how to play the game

a little better.

Tip is don't come back here.

Not unless you want to get hurt. And next time, we won't be so easy on you.

That's very unsportsmanlike.

You make a joke out of our sport.

Maybe we break your legs so you can't come back, Dalgona.

Okay. You guys are being very hostile.

You know, maybe you should take it down a notch. Because trust me, and I know

about this, it can be very bad for your health.

You mean bad for your health?

I'm honest, I made a mistake, okay? I underestimated you guys out there. Damn

right.

We'll make the same mistake.

Hey! You're breaking his arm! No, no, not yet.

But that's what comes next, alright?

If you guys can't find a serious attitude and adjustment...

We all understand each other.

This has been fun.

I will see you guys on the court, huh?

Boss wants the rest of these inside now

Idiots

clean this mess up

We found these in Carlos' locker.

Check this out.

His wife went online when she said he had a gambling problem.

These are bets with every bookie on the island.

Why are they stacked together like this?

And why are they in his locker? I don't know. Maybe he was preparing them for

something. Okay, we know he couldn't pay off his bets, right? Could he have

thought he might be able to trade his debt for something else?

Service is rendered, but what?

Or who?

Making any headway?

Chief, in the new report from Manila, didn't you say the new drugs hitting our

streets came from Singapore?

That's correct.

Well, there were dozens of boxes being loaded into a high-security building

right behind the Killshot Arena.

All were marked from Singapore.

And you found drugs inside?

Found this.

I don't think this is what Manila's looking for.

Hold on.

I heard the case once in Mexico.

It's in a law cartel.

They hid the heroin inside of Barbie dolls.

Now, not actually in the doll. The heroin was shaped in the form of a doll.

I'm way ahead of you.

I had the lab check went out, and they found nothing.

But? Drugs are involved in this somehow.

I'm sure of it.

Are we going to have to get into that high security building?

I don't think we'll be able to get a search warrant with this.

Well, it looks like we're going to have to play our way in.

T-shirts from the gift shop? Yeah.

Seriously? Yeah, might as well get a little promotion, huh?

Might stir up some business.

Okay, look, we want to see where they're taking those boxes.

We're going to need Murata's key to get into the secured area.

And he keeps it up there in his private suite.

All right, you got a plan to clear everybody out? Once you guys hit the

court, he'll come out and watch.

That'll give me a chance to sneak in and grab the key. How do you know he'll come

out? Because.

Gets a kick out of seeing Alex get his ass handed to him. Yeah, well, he's

going to be sadly disappointed because I've been watching some YouTube videos,

huh? I got a vision for the game now, man. I haven't learned how to do the

kick shot.

Oh, jeez.

Okay. Yeah. Look, just keep the game going long enough for me to go in and

find it, okay?

Sorry.

Let's go.

Sorry,

gentlemen.

Maybe you'll have more luck in the next matches.

Pick your teams wisely.

The American in this team might have taken the call.

Gentlemen, here's your chance to win some of your money back. I promise you,

you're going to want to watch this next match.

Take the money, put it in the vault.

James, you're in.

What? You can't do that.

You can't switch a guy on your team.

You can't bring somebody... Alex, actually they can.

If I can direct your attention to part six, in a much anticipated rematch,

the Sabu Crushers will be destroying...

I mean, playing... the

Mactan Dalgonas!

Nice.

Sorry, sorry.

Sorry, sorry, sorry.

I just cheated. Dammit.

This game's going too fast.

We gotta buy Kai some time.

I've got an idea.

Listen.

Hey! That's the layup game!

Ruff!

Sorry.

Let's call one more point. It's game over and Kai is still inside.

No mercy.

Time to whip this Talonon's ass.

What the hell does Talonon mean?

Loser.

That's a kill shot.

The hell is this? It's a plastics extrusion machine.

Well, it was before it was converted.

You're familiar with this?

Yep.

Back in Philly, one of my first cases, they were smuggling cocaine into the

city disguised as plastic bottles.

They'd take the bottles and they'd put them in the machine, and it would

extract the drugs from the plastic.

But the shuttlecock I brought in was checked and analyzed.

It was clean.

Yeah. It wasn't the shuttlecock.

It's a pack of peanuts. It was packed in.

Nice.

Yep.

Disguising drugs as packing peanuts. That's a new one.

Do we really think that Carlo was mixed up in all this? I don't know. My bet is

that he found out about this and then offered to exchange his silence in order

to erase his gambling debt.

That would explain all the markers stacked away in his locker.

Yeah, I think he came here to exchange it.

Wait, Carlos thought he could blackmail a gangster like Murata? I don't think he

was thinking.

I think he was out of his head, and I think he was desperate. Desperate enough

to think that Murata would cancel his gambling debts? Murata figured it would

be cheaper to just kill Carlo.

Good theory, but difficult to prove.

Crap.

Do we have a problem? I don't hear any alarms.

Well, they're certainly willing to spend money on security.

Then why don't they have security people here now?

Because it's automated.

It's remotely monitored.

If anybody sets foot in this building, it sets off silent alarms and sends

warnings to the guards next door.

So if we're inside and on camera, why didn't we set it off?

Because we use Murata's key fob.

He doesn't want to get caught on camera. And when he uses his key, it turns off

the alarms and the cameras.

But when he finds out his keys, we're gonna turn everything back on. We gotta

go. Yeah, Kai, let's go. Let's go. What's that? Hold on.

Hey, maybe you can find some footage of Carlos stumbling on the operation. This

would help with our theory. We don't have time for that right now.

We'll just have to come back for it. What if they erase it from the servers

by then? I have one last thing to do.

Okay, we're leaving.

Kai. Wait.

Night.

You're not going anywhere.

Found these badges on them. Cops.

Detectives. Actually, I'm just an observer, so... You made a big mistake

coming here.

Listen, big guy, you're already a drug dealer.

You want to add cop killer to your rap sheet?

I'm not afraid to kill to protect my business.

Like you killed Carlo Guzman?

That punk kid thought he could blackmail me, and he paid the price.

Just like you three will.

Kill him.

Wait, wait, what? You're Luther? You're gonna have Luther do it? I don't think

so. He doesn't have the stones for it.

He's too weak.

Strong enough to chuck the life out of your friend, Carlo.

Listen, man, there's no shame in being a wimp.

All right, I've met guys.

What, twice your size or just total?

What's these?

That's all you got?

You hit like a grade schooler.

Okay.

Okay.

Now you're just gonna hurt your knuckles, huh? No one ever told you how

to throw a proper punch.

Stop this nonsense and shoot them.

Going somewhere, Morada?

Campo, starting to like these little surprise visits.

Well, this time I was invited.

How did you know to come here, Chief?

A little birdie told us.

We'll just have to come back for it. What if they erase it from the servers

by then? I have one last thing to do.

Quick thinking, Detective.

Thank you, sir.

You see Agent Walker?

I told you your expertise with the DEA would help us solve this drug crime.

I'm sorry I couldn't help you with the murder charge.

Oh, that's all right, Chief.

Murata did all that on his own.

He confessed to everything, and so did his accomplice, Luther.

They set up very high-tech security cameras to protect Murata.

But since they turned everything back on without using his key, cameras were

rolling the whole time.

I'm not afraid to kill to protect my business.

Like you killed Carlo Guzman?

That punk kid thought he could blackmail me?

And he paid the price.

Son of a... Get him out of here.

Get the check.

Nice work.

Love it.

I'm gonna be honest with you guys.

Right there at the end, I think I started getting the hang of that Batman

stuff. We should join a league. Join a league?

I don't want to do any badminton for a while.

What? How about you, Kai? You want to play some badminton with me? No. How

about we just go to a picnic?

You know what? I know you guys are passionate about me, but I can get good

at this.

What's this?

Open it.

That's over a million pesos.

Yeah.

That's $20,000 American.

Wow. I don't understand.

The Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency put out a reward for information that

led to a conviction.

Oh, well, congratulations.

No, no. Oh, Mrs. Guzman.

That's yours.

But I didn't do anything to catch them.

You're right.

But your husband, Carlo, did.

Look, we know this doesn't bring him back.

Just think of it as one last gift from him for his family.

Now you have the finances to keep the house and have plenty left over to take

care of your child.

What about the guys who killed Carlo?

Well, I promised you we'd find them, didn't we?

We did.

I'm not gonna pay.

I don't know what to say.

You don't have to say anything.

I found these in Carlos' locker at the club.

Thought you might want them.

Some clothes, belongings.

This clearly was something special to him.

Rita, what are you still doing here?

My mother had to do a double shift, so I figured that while I'm waiting for her,

I could also work double shift.

Make some serious overtime.

No, no, no. I didn't approve any overtime.

But I am here.

But I didn't ask you to be here.

And I'm working.

Without approval.

So I'm making overtime.

You can't... You know what? Fine.

You're a good boss, Mr. Walker. Yeah, I'm a good boss.

Why is this TV still here? This thing was supposed to be back in the lobby two

days ago.

The guy from the satellite dish company had to reschedule until next week.

So he won't be able to take it out until then.

We saw a satellite?

Yeah. And in about ten minutes, they're going to be repeating the whole fight.

That's why I kept it in here for you. Shut your mouth!

So you can finally see it.

Ladies!

Hey, isn't this that stupid show that you like?

Goodness, this is a new episode. I've never seen this one. Yeah.

Well, grab a seat.

Wait, really?

Yeah, really.

What about the fight?

I don't think I've had enough competitive sports for a while.

Now, who is this guy with the patch over his eye?

That's the guy who's in love with Maria.

That's Maria? Who's the guy kissing Maria?

That's Ronaldo, Maria's fiancé.

This is too complicated for me.
