SUGIYAMA MARKET

It's her death anniversary.

Sorry I haven't visited your grave
in a while.

I've been through a lot lately.

OZAKI FAMILY GRAVE

I'll tell you all about it.

IZAKAYA CHICKEN

I'm ashamed of it,
but after you died, Mom,

I was scamming the elderly
and the gullible.

One day, I met an arrogant and pretentious
Frenchman named Laurent.

Everyone calls him a blond bastard.

I was going to scam him,
but got scammed instead.

Before I knew it,
I'd become his accomplice.

He and his crew
are international con artists.

Who the hell are you two?

We're con artists.

Our first target

was the boss of the Los Angeles
narcotics mafia, Eddie Cassano.

I played the role
of a laboratory scientist.

We sold him plain old candy
that we said was a new narcotic.

You brat!

We scammed him
out of over 100 million dollars.

Cassano was also arrested by the FBI,
and his organization crumbled.

Oh, right. We got one of his gang members
to walk free.

Besides Laurent, there are some other
real characters, like Abbie.

She looks pretty darn...

How do I put this?

She's kind of cute, but...

Are you running, you trash?

...she's a ruthless beast inside.

Singapore was intense.

We targeted two brother princes who were
making a killing by fixing the sky races.

The blond bastard opened an
underground casino in a Bay Sands suite.

I infiltrated the target's team
as a mechanic.

Abbie played a pilot.

Laurent scammed them out of their money,

but Abbie and I got in a bind.

-Let's die together.
-Three, two, one...

-What?
-...zero!

We ended up jumping
out of the Marina Bay Sands.

I seriously thought I was going to die.

It's time for the sexy queen, Cynthia,
to show what she's got.

There's another lady who's a real handful.

As for her looks,
she's pretty darn gorgeous.

She's around 40,
but acts like a woman in her 20s

who loves money and liquor.

But in London,
I saw an unexpected side of her.

We ran a fake black-market auction

to scam a corrupt art dealer
known as the "Art World's 007."

Let's take on the job.

Cynthia was determined to get him.

The art dealer took advantage
of her ex-boyfriend

and ruined their lives.

If that had never happened,
Cynthia would probably be...

Then again, maybe she wouldn't.

There's also Shi Ohn, a fearless veteran.

She and Laurent go way back.

And there's the old guy Kudo
who I used to run scams with.

He's a good guy and a quick study.

Laurent has lots of other associates
all over the place.

They're pretty cheerful bastards.

It was actually pretty fun.

I know what I'm doing isn't right.

I just wanted you to hear it.

Thanks.

I'm beat.

So am I.

Carry me.

In a little bit.

Why not, you meanie?

It's good enough here.

You can open them now.

Laurent!

Hey!

Cynthia made lunch,
so hurry up and get out of bed.

The brutal return to reality.

What's your problem? Beer for breakfast?

It's wheat juice.

What's next? Pro wrestling?

We're still short one person.

I guess it's not easy playing dead.

Without context, it makes no sense.

Get a better scenario.

Play like that somewhere else.

What a tough audience
for my last performance.

Last performance?

Yes, I've come to say goodbye.

Yes, right. There you go again.

Let's talk outside.

When you're a con artist,
you'll eventually end up like that.

There's no way I want to die like that.

To be honest, I despise you.

I only appreciate you a tiny bit.

I'd been stagnating in Japan,
but you revived me.

How can I put this?

At this rate, I'll lose sight of myself.

I might start believing all the lies
I've been telling in order to con people.

That thought frightens me.

But you already know all that.

I'll admit,
you always put your heart into it.

That's exactly why
you can persuade people.

I guess it's time for a change.

I know it's hard to believe I mean it
since I've missed my chance to do so.

Any regrets?

If I did, it would be
that I never truly conned you.

Tough luck.

I don't have much advice for you.

Just do what you feel is right.

If you follow your gut feeling,
you'll naturally find the right path.

See you around, Laurent.

I'm going back to Japan
to start my life over again.

I don't know what I can do.

I'll just...

do some serious job hunting
and earn an honest living.

You guys have fooled me many times,

but I won't be deceived so easily anymore.

SUGIYAMA MARKET

So, no one in your family
is in law enforcement?

No.

SELFLESS DEVOTION TO OTHERS

What's this?
You have a criminal record.

I'll ignore that for now.
What have you been doing since then?

I did various jobs around the world.

Whereabouts?

Let's see...

Hollywood in the US.

Near the Marina Bay Sands in Singapore.

Around London, England.

And Paris and Nice in France.

I see. Not for sightseeing, right?

Right.

I thought I could make use of my skills
at your trading company.

I know you won't trust me so easily.

But...

I want to start my life over again,
so I'll do my best.

Start over, huh?

-Are you good at English?
-Yes.

But some say I have a bit of an accent.
I don't think so though.

My mother taught classical Chinese,
so I learned a little Chinese from her.

Really? Chinese too?

I can only speak broken English.

Were you in Fuchu Prison?

Yes.

Second chances in life aren't always fair.

Anyway, want to start as a trainee?

Edamura?

Thank you so much!

Just don't get arrested again.

TEA LEAVES WHOLESALER
WHITE PEONY, GREEN TEA, SAFFLOWER

Good afternoon.

Afternoon.

-Say, Edamura.
-Yes?

Are you getting used to the job?

Yes. This could be my ideal job.

Nice! Glad to hear it.

Let's talk when you're done with that.

-The HQ is in Roppongi?
-Yes. They've been pretty successful.

With a good review, your bonus will
easily be worth half your annual salary.

Impressive.

There's an incentive system.
It's high-risk, high-return.

What do you mean by "high-risk"?

Oh, it's just a figure of speech.

I'll be introducing you to someone.

Who is it?

The company owner.
She's arriving from Karuizawa today.

-Sir!
-Sir!

Good afternoon, everyone.

Edamura, take your place quickly.

Right.

-Good afternoon!
-Good afternoon!

Chairman!

This is our new employee, Edamura.

Come on.

Right. I'm Makoto Edamura!

Do your best.

Thank you very much!

You have the chairman's approval.

Now you're an official employee.
Congratulations.

Thank...

you.

HANOI, VIETNAM

Let's see...

One, two, three.

Not much, but it'll do.

Who are these kids?

-The merchandise.
-What?

Merchandise. Take them.

Remember, we trade in everything.

We've got three more places to visit.

They're taking a ship back,
so take care of the merchandise.

We'd better buy some seasickness pills.

What's with all the seeds?

-Mr. Ishigami, I don't think we should--
-You already are.

Get going.
If you're caught here, prison is a bitch.

-But...
-Get in.

Let's see, this one
is from Scarlet Company, right?

Yes.

It says mostly furniture and clothes,
with some fresh produce.

NO SMUGGLING
NO MATTER WHAT

Are you listening?

Well, let me see...

You want me to inspect it?

Sorry about that. I was in the can.

Komada, go easy on the new guy.

I can't help myself when I see a new guy.

I know what you mean.
Now give it to me. I'll sign it.

Is this all you got
after visiting all of Southeast Asia?

I'm sorry!

It will do.

Auction them in two months.

-Prepare them.
-Yes, ma'am!

Revenue is falling.

You know what will happen
if that keeps up.

Yes, ma'am!

-And you.
-I'm Makoto Edamura!

-There's an auction later. Observe.
-Yes, ma'am!

Chairman Suzaku spoke to you.
You must be special.

What?

It took years
before she even remembered who I was.

Let's get to the venue downstairs.

How many times do I have to tell you?

Smile, would you?

Smile!

Don't you get it? I said smile!

Can't you understand Japanese?

Enough of those goddamn sour looks!

When you're out there,
move like you were taught

or I'll get angry!

Sorry about this, Mr. Ishigami.

They usually do as they're told
after I give them a few good whacks.

Bidding starts at two million yen.

Three million.

Five million.

Half a million.

Six million. Anyone else?

Well, seven million!

Anyone else? Nobody?

Sold!

Just do what you feel is right.

If you follow your gut feeling,
you'll naturally find the right path.

Tomorrow,
I'm flying from Narita to Singapore.

You sound busy.

What's your line of work again?

I'm in trading.

Maybe I'll try that.

SCARLET COMPANY

SELFLESS DEVOTION TO OTHERS

That prick!

Hold on. What are you talking about?

Don't act dumb!

Scarlet Company is obviously
a shell company for the mafia!

You tricked me and steered me
into working for them!

You figured that out fast.

How many times do you have to trick me?

Don't get so upset.

I wanted to give you a glorious
final performance in Tokyo.

I did it out of love.

Do you have any idea
what Suzaku Association does?

They're scumbag Japanese mafia
who buy orphans and refugees

from all across Asia
and sell them to the world's wealthy.

And their boss is the empress
of the Japanese underworld, Akemi Suzaku.

What's the hustle this time?

First, I plan on asking an old friend
to give us a hand.

-You must be Laurent.
-Yes.

I find it hard to believe we've never met.

How have you been?

Thanks to you, I was able to start over.

Looking good, Abbie!

I like that horseshoe crab hairdo.
It's cool.

So, did you have me come
all the way out here to trick me again?

Now that you've broken away from
your brother and are on an honest path,

I'd like to sponsor your team.

I'd appreciate it.

What do I need to do in exchange?

Do I need to ride in a wheelchair?

Let's play a game
that's just as exciting as racing.

There will be a script though.
