Wow.

What?

Hey, wow.

What?

Listen to this.

"No one, not even a lover,

"looks at you as intensely and as closely

"as someone who intends to knock you out in the ring.

"I could actually feel my opponent's eyes

"drilling into me, examining my slightest movement,

"measuring my breathing,

"calculating my physical condition.

"And I did the same to him.

"It's no exaggeration to say that winning or losing a bout

"is directly related... to concentration."

What's the name of that book?

The Secret Power Within.

Who wrote it?

Chuck Norris.

Never heard of him.

You never heard of Chuck Norris?

Four-time world karate champion?

Six.

How long have we been after this Salvino guy?

A year.

Now, his own boys are leading us to him.

Yeah and we would've got him before now

if he wasn't in the middle of that war.

Somebody trying to take over your territory

makes you a lot more cautious.

Well, he wasn't cautious tonight and we're gonna take him down.

Let's hope our information is good

and this delivery leads us to him.

He'll be there.

He always likes to check out his cargo

before he makes his payment.

It's 5 a.m. It's gonna be light soon.

Yeah.

All right.

What's going on?

Eliminate the men inside the building.

Go.

Call it in.

This is Ranger Six. We're at the location.

We got some fireworks here. Send some backup.

Freeze.

Hit?

No, I'm all right.

Back to square one with Salvino, huh?

Yeah.

Maybe we can find out now

who's trying to cut in on his operation.

The sixth time in a month

one of Salvino's business enterprises has been hit.

It sure would be nice to know who's responsible for it.

No ID.

Nothing?

Interesting label.

Cyrillic lettering?

I think it's Russian.

Let's have that analyzed.

I think I'm gonna have his prints faxed

to NCIC and Interpol.

Okay, the Russian embassy too.

Let's get out of here.

So, Harry,

how do you like this side of police work?

I know, not much. Me neither.

Identification Unit, Corporal Petrovsky speaking.

Yes, sir.

I speak English quite well, sir.

Absolutely, sir.

To Dallas?

On my own?

Yes, sir.

Immediately, sir.

Yes.

Make my day, punk.

Now, you listen to me, jerk.

You ain't taking over my operation.

You got until noon Friday.

That's your deadline, Salvino.

And after that, we start aiming for you personally.

I'm gonna find out exactly who you are,

where you're holed up and I'm gonna take you down.

You are a brave man, Benny.

Oh, you noticed.

But I'm going nowhere, you miserable piece of dirt.

I love it here in the United States.

You commie bastard.

I may not be sure of my father,

but I've never, never been a communist.

It's too unprofitable.

You get out or you're dead. Understand?

What I understand that whoever gets dead first, loses.

We are teaching Mr. Salvino a lesson, boss?

Yeah.

A lesson.

For Nikolai.

It will be pleasure to teach

these degenerate American criminals

how we do it in Moscow.

Soon?

Soon.

Very soon.

In my town, they have a saying:

"If you got a corpse and a question mark,

you call in Petrovsky."

You are lucky I could squeeze a few days in

to give you guys a hand.

We really appreciate that fact, corporal.

Oh, it's no problem.

But what I'm surprised is that your Texas Rangers needs help.

Well, they're tough but they're human.

I mean, don't the Russian policemen

occasionally need some extra help?

Not this Russian policeman.

Oh, look out.

Hey, Walker. Analysis came back on those capsules

we found in the dead Russian's pocket.

Something special?

Yeah, a new methamphetamine, three times as powerful.

They say it makes a guy feel like he's King Kong's brother.

Great.

Walker, Trivette, I'd like you to meet

Corporal Yuri Petrovsky, Moscow P.D.

This is Rangers Cordell Walker and James Trivette.

Welcome to Dallas, corporal.

Yeah, thanks for coming all that way.

No sweating, guys.

Now, the prints and the photos you wired our embassy

were tentatively ID'd as Nikolai Stroyev.

My boss sent me over

to eyeball this stiff and make everything kosher.

It's nice digs you got here, guys.

Lots of room.

Yeah, do you know this guy Stroyev?

Busted him dozen times.

I even broke my hand once on this dirtbag.

Is that right?

It's no big deal.

So let's get this over with

and then we can drain a couple of cold ones

and exchange war stories all we want, hey?

Well, let's get to the morgue. You wanna go, Alex?

No, thank you.

Crazy.

Crazy. This is nuts. Look at this.

Salvino's taking 42 percent off your tables.

Oh, come on.

Unbelievable. Unbelievable.

The jewel in Salvino's crown.

And I hear it takes him good money.

Very good money.

Look, we're closed up here right now, all right?

But if you're looking for a good time,

you come back after 6. Otherwis...

My name is Karpov, Joey.

And I'm here to collect what Benny Salvino collects.

In his place.

Man, you are crazy.

No doubt.

But like a fox... Joey.

A Russian fox.

Man, Salvino's gonna kill you.

First of every month,

myself or an associate will be here to collect

our share.

So I was in here.

Remember that girl with that redhead?

What the hell is that?

Mark... Those are Salvino's guys.

See you soon, Joey.

God... I love this country.

You can call the police now, Joey.

But keep me out of your description, okay?

Sure. Sure, whatever you say, Mr. Karpov.

So the third time I busted Stroyev

in the Trotsky District, it's a tough neighborhood.

You can hire a cop killer for a thousand rubles there.

How much is a thousand rubles?

It's two American dollars.

So I walk in, alone,

because a man's gotta do wha...

What a man's gotta do.

Right.

Haven't you ever been to an autopsy, corporal?

What? Oh, many times.

Dozens, in fact.

Well, is this the guy?

That's him.

Nikolai Stroyev.

Bullet penetrated the sternum, exploded.

Oh, man. A real mess.

Well, how about lunch?

Lunch?

That's a good idea. I'm hungry.

What should we have?

Spaghetti?

With meatballs?

Yeah, Trivette.

All right. Thanks.

The Lodge. Two more of Salvino's men bit the dust.

Oh, boy.

Do you think Yuri's done barfing?

Let's go see.

All right, bring him on.

Come on.

Here we go.

What's this?

Who are these guys?

Get down.

Get us out of here.

What's the matter with you? Drive.

You lose, Salvino.

Got it.

Here we go.

Got nothing up here. Excuse us, please.

Looks like somebody won the war, left no clues, except for this.

Yeah, Salvino got careless.

Yuri, does this card mean anything to you?

We found one just like it at the other club.

My God!

What?

I was so busy observing your procedures, I didn't see.

My God!

What is it, Yuri?

I should've noticed.

You see, this is so new to me.

Murder scenes...

I mean, your way of doing things, of course.

My God, he's here.

Who's here?

Max Karpov.

Who's Max Karpov?

English, Yuri.

One of the biggest criminals in Russia.

He was finally convicted for murder.

But he escaped the last day before his execution

and this Hanged Man card was Karpov's signature.

You seem to know a lot about this guy.

All of it. His friends, his enemies.

On Karpov, I'm an expert.

Good, because we need you to help us find him.

Me?

English, Yuri.

This mad dog killer?

I mean, I'd love to, guys,

but I have only day or two in your country.

I don't think it's possible.

Man, he's scared to death.

But we need him.

He's the only one that can identify Karpov.

We got to figure out some way to keep him here.

Want me to try to take his mind off it?

Yeah, if you can do that, it'd be great.

Yeah.

Hey, Yuri.

You all right?

You know, I was thinking.

You're in Dallas for a couple more days.

We need to show you around so you can have some fun.

Anything you wanna see?

Yeah.

What?

A visit to a country-western dance club

could be something nice to remember in my old age.

That's, of course, if I have old age.

Country-western?

Yuri, I think we can do that.

I just don't understand it.

One minute, we're nuclear eyeball to eyeball

with the Russkies

and the next minute we're doing the two-step with them.

International relations, C.D. Besides, he's a pretty nice guy.

A little green, but a nice guy.

Howdy.

Howdy.

Those boots are a bit tricky, but they'll learn.

C.D. Parker, retired Texas Ranger.

Nice to meet you.

Nice to know you. Sit down, sit down.

I'm really here.

An authentic country-western dance club.

Well...

How about round of drinks for y'all?

Sure, sounds good to me.

What you drinking, partner?

Beer would be fine.

Beer?

Well, we just use that down here to marinate a steak with

and maybe just drop a raw egg in it once in a while.

I thought you Russkies were real drinkers.

Well, vodka, then.

Vodka? For crying out loud, that's just potato juice.

That's just a little better.

How about a real authentic Texas drink?

I'd love that.

I'd love to try a real authentic Texas drink. What is it?

Tequila.

Oh, Lord.

It is a bottom burner, let me tell you.

It's the best.

Tequila? Tequila.

Ma'am, tequila, straight up.

Great.

One and two, one.

One and two, one.

You're getting it. That's right.

All right.

Getting ready for a twirl?

Ready when you are, ma'am.

One and two and one.

Come on.

Mr. C.D. is sleeping, huh?

Yeah, Mr. C.D. is sleeping.

This tequila is nice little drink.

It's light but tasty.

We need a favor tomorrow, Yuri, if you don't mind.

Don't be silly. You're my friends, no?

We're your friends, yes.

Yuri, what we'd like you to do

is go with us to a couple of Russian clubs in town,

see if you can recognize any of Karpov's men.

Or Karpov himself.

It's no sweating. It's my pleasure.

Shall we continue?

I really showed that Russkie, didn't I, Cordell?

Yeah, you sure did, C.D.

If you recognize anyone, just point him out to me.

Don't do anything.

Absolutely.

Walker, after all, I'm a professional.

Moscow Police. Victor Zaryev, you're under arrest.

Victor Zaryev.

Stop your running.

Stop, you criminal.

Don't get... Stop.

Stop or I'll shoot, you'll see. I'll shoot.

Stop.

Oh, my... Hey. He's got a gun.

Where you...?

Hey, what is your problem?

Who's that guy? What guy?

Stop.

Stop.

Stop.

I'll catch you anyway. Stop.

Missed me. I'll get you, I'll get you alive.

You missed again.

Watch out, watch out.

Vic, Vic, Vic.

I'll get you. I'll get you, man.

Can't believe it!

Stop, stop.

Stop it, you...

Right. My bullets.

So how many rounds did I fire?

Feeling lucky, punk?

Was it six or only five?

Six.

You Moscow cops are nothing.

How about a Texas Ranger?

You okay?

No, I'm not okay.

You just saw me make a fool of myself,

and exposing what I really am.

A fake.

My first year on the streets was a disaster.

I couldn't do anything right at all.

Once I helped a man to push his stalled car until it started.

He drove away.

I was so proud to have helped him.

Until I found out that the car was stolen

and the trunk was full of contraband.

How were you supposed to know that, Yuri?

I knew I was no Dirty Harry, that's for sure.

Not even a little Dirty Harry.

Something was missing.

And then they assigned me to...

How do you call it in English, the Identification Bureau?

Yeah and chained me to the desk for the last 15 years.

Now's your chance to prove yourself, Yuri.

Yeah, huh?

And today I reached new heights of ashamedness.

I'll go back to Moscow and resign myself from the force.

Listen to me, Yuri.

You chased a hardened criminal into that alley, alone.

That took a lot of guts.

Believe me, you're no coward.

And I need you here.

I'd like to do anything to deserve your trust.

Even walk into the mouth of hell.

Well, I hope you don't have to do that.

Alex, can you figure out a way to release Victor Zaryev?

What? To release Zaryev?

But we just got him, didn't we?

Yeah, we sure did and I want to release him.

Can you do it?

I'll see what I can do.

Good.

Da.

Okay, dosvedanya.

Trivette, I'm approaching Washaw at Randall.

Ready to leapfrog?

Yeah, ready to leapfrog.

Leapfrog, the real police language.

He's all yours. Not too loose.

Absolutely, Walker.

Absolutely, Walker.

We stay not too loose. Out, Yuri.

Hold on a minute, Walker. We might have gotten lucky here.

I'm on my way back.

Drink vodka. It's good.

Good.

Good.

Good, that vodka.

Stay here, Yuri.

Hey, boss, I'm free.

I called Ivan and he said you might be here,

so I thought I'd surprise you.

You fool. You've led them to me.

I don't know.

Sit down.

You think he's getting any information out of Zaryev?

That's what I'm gonna find out.

Did he say anything?

Nothing of importance. He is delirious.

He spoke about Russia, his mother,

his sisters, the Afghan War.

I am very sorry, Walker.

Well, you did what you could.

Try again tomorrow?

Yeah.

You have reached Ranger Walker's desk.

Please leave a message.

Dear friend, this is Yuri.

I lied to you.

Zaryev did tell me something useful, I hope.

A telephone number to contact Karpov

and other information that I will use tomorrow

to hopefully go undercover with Karpov's gang.

When I get what I need to trap Karpov, I will call.

I know this is a betrayal,

but you wouldn't let me to do it otherwise.

Too dangerous, you would say.

I am terrified of dying, I admit it.

But if I go along like this with no respect for myself,

I might as well be dead anyway.

Please forgive me.

Mr. Karpov?

Gregory Rostov.

How about a little Moscow hug, Rostov,

like an old pal to another?

Hug? Sure.

No wire, no gun.

Good.

So Zaryev told you about me.

Like I said on the phone,

he said that a guy with contacts like mine in Dallas

can make great money for both of us.

Or just for you.

Selling to the cops, for instance.

No, I don't play game like that, Mr. Karpov.

What's the proposition?

I've got snitches everywhere.

Even in the police.

What can you tell me that I don't already know?

I think nothing. Have a nice day.

What about Rawhide?

Your meth factory in Fort Worth?

Who told you about Rawhide?

Victor Zaryev?

My guy on the police.

See, I was looking to sell you something

and when I mentioned the name Karpov,

he told me about a Texas Ranger named Walker

who's trying to bring you in.

It seems that he found out that

you took over Salvino's operation.

One of the Salvino's old boys snitched about Rawhide.

So now Walker put himself in charge of the raid.

What raid?

Tomorrow morning at 7 a.m.

Okay.

I clear the place out.

If you're right, we got a deal.

But if you're wrong...

you're dead.

I don't want you doing this, Yuri.

No, no, it's too late. Remember,

Rawhide Enterprise.

Make the raid at 7 or I'm historical.

And again, I apologize, guys.

But you're my good friends and I want you to be proud of me.

And of course, also, I want to make me proud of myself too.

Love you. Goodbye.

What else can we do but follow his plan?

Make it look as real as possible.

Inside the building, open up.

We have a search warrant.

Here we go.

Hit it.

Force it.

All right. On three.

In there. Let's go, go, go.

Clear.

Thanks for the help.

Damn it.

Seems we cleaned up the place just in time.

I'm happy if you're happy, Mr. Karpov.

You'd have gone off this roof headfirst if I wasn't, Gregory.

How would you like to take a firsthand look

at the operation?

I'd like that very much, sir.

Come on.

Headquarters.

And thanks to you, all the inventory from Rawhide too.

At first, my idea was simply to come in here,

rape Salvino's operation,

take all I could handle and retire in South America.

But now, I think

maybe I should clean myself up with a good lawyer

and seek the American dream.

You've got a good start, boss.

Don't I?

Everything.

From thousands in counterfeit hundreds,

tons of hijacked TVs, VCRs, to these:

borrowed automobiles.

It's incredible.

So Zaryev was right.

You are the boss for me.

Where's the bathroom?

What?

The toilet?

Oh, sure. Over there.

I'll be back.

Walker.

Walker, hi. This is Yuri.

Yuri, where are you?

The address here is 1148 Delmar.

Okay, we're on our way.

Get out of there, Yuri. Now, you understand?

Yeah, I'll try, I'll try. I'll make up some excuse, yeah.

See you soon.

1148 Delmar.

Boss, this is great.

I have to run.

Hey, what are you doing?

So what? It's easy to explain.

I was talking to a girl. Yeah, my girlfriend.

In the toilet?

Yeah, I didn't wanna bother anyone.

And...

we like to talk nasty to each other.

All backup units establish at 10-20 at 1148 Delmar.

Surround the building. ETA, three minutes.

Hang on.

Make that two minutes.

I want to know everything, what you told the authorities.

And I want to know it now.

I told them nothing.

Don't lie to me.

Policia.

Freeze.

Get down.

Get down.

Put your arms right down.

Put it down.

Hands behind your back.

Thanks, Yuri. You saved my neck.

You all right, Yuri?

I never felt better in my life.

And out of nowhere,

Yuri comes flying through the air,

takes Karpov down, knocks him out and saved my life.

Great.

Yuri, I wanted to say goodbye.

Oh, wait, wait.

Walker, tell Mr. C.D. what happened at the warehouse.

Well, Trivette and I burst into this warehouse

and we see Karpov working Yuri over.

Go on. Okay, okay.

We get into a firefight with Karpov and his men

and I jump one of Karpov's men to take him down.

And then I'm getting ready to handcuff him,

Karpov gets me in his sights.

And out of nowhere, Yuri comes flying through the air,

takes Karpov down, knocks him out and saves my life.

Well, you're a bona fide hero.

Oh, it's nothing.

Hey, Yuri. I came by to say, "Bon voyage."

Oh, thank you. It's so good to see you.

Oh, hear this.

Walker, tell Alex what happened at the warehouse.

Well, it was like this.

Trivette and I burst into the warehouse...
