Original subtitles

They're back in the green.

All right, men!

One last effort and we're out of here.

Ransom!

Go, Vic, go back!

It's no use, ah!

It's stuck!

Commander Jenkins, one more minute,

the choppers are leaving us.

He's right, Major, get out of here,

before the Charlies get ya!

All right, Sergeant, you're in command.

Take the lane to the chopper,

and if we're not there in two minutes,

take off without us.

But, sir, I can't- That's an order, Sergeant!

Yes, sir.

Okay, men, move out! Follow me!

Move out!

Come on. It's okay.

Move it!

Move it!

Now pull your foot up.

It's okay.

Let's just get the hell out of this shit hole.

Go, Vic! Go back now!

It's no use, ah!

Get outta here.

Come on, get up, get up!

Move it!

Pull your foot out!

Jesus, Ransom!

You always did have a heavy hand.

Ruby. Jesus!

What are you doing here?

God.

The same thing you are.

You saw the news of Major Jenkins' death.

That came as a blow to all of us

who were in the Strike Commando.

Just can't get him out of my mind.

He was like a father to me.

He saved my life.

I mean, you know.

I just wish there was somethin' we could've done.

Oh shit, Ransom, things didn't go so badly for you,

thanks to Jenkins.

But I wasn't so...

That's not what I'm here to talk to you about.

Listen, Vic is still alive.

What'?

Yeah, that's right.

That's right.

See, since the war, he's been working for the CIA,

but now, they've staged his death.

Well, here,

this is the address of a CIA bigshot.

Now he knows all about this.

His name is Peter Roeg.

Unfortunately, I haven't been able to find out

where they're holding Jenkins right now,

but-

And I sure as hell don't know what they're up to.

But you can bet your sweet ass, whatever it is,

it's not good news for the major.

Ruby, how do you know so much about this?

Ransom, old buddy,

when you're in this condition,

you've got plenty of time to listen.

And at least these still work just fine.

But anyway, what are you gonna do now?

I'm gonna find out the truth.

Wait.

You know I'd like to go with you,

but the war's over for me,

and it has been for some time.

I did everything you told me to.

What are you doing here?

No, no, wait.

No, wait! Please, no!

No, wait! Please!

No!

Can I help you, sir?

I made an appointment with Peter Roeg.

Just one moment, sir.

The reason of your visit?

You are Mister...

Where the hell'd he go?

Who the hell are you?

-Aww.

What a nice family you have here.

Oh what's this?

Oh, what do you want from me?

Where's Vic Jenkins?

You're crazy.

Jenkins is dead.

Well, you're gonna be dead

if you don't tell me where he is.

Where is he? I'm sure he went

into Roeg's office.

Let's go.

Inside a house, under the Calabria Hill,

two miles from here.

Now let go of me.

I can't ... I can't breathe.

Quick, Mr. Roeg's in danger!

Hey, you take care of Roeg.

He got away. Damn him!

We have to warn them immediately.

This is Sonny, here.

Yes?

I understand, all right.

What's up? Trouble.

Trouble?

What kind of trouble?

We have to get out of here, Mr. Jenkins, immediately.

You've been moving me about from place to place,

for the past three days.

Now I don't budge another inch

until you tell me what's going on.

This place isn't safe anymore.

Some guy has practically torn Roeg's office apart.

Oh?

And he knows you're here.

What's his name?

Ransom.

Michael Ransom.

Michael Ransom.

Yeah?

I...

Look.

Look, Peter, I, Michael...

I am, I am trying to tell you

that Michael Ransom was a soldier under my command.

It's impossible.

It's, it's unthinkable that he would come here

to try and kill me or kidnap me.

I know the man too well.

I'm not interested in your suppositions, Jenkins.

I've given my men five minutes

to get you out of that hideout.

And there are only four minutes left.

Remember, I'm in charge of this operation.

Now, stand up slowly and don't make any sudden moves.

Hey, what's the problem? Shut up! Just move it, boy.

This is Frank. Come in, Sonny.

This is Sonny.

I read you.

Now I found a peeping Tom, complete with binoculars,

up here, above the house.

Keep him there.

I'll send George and Vincent right up.

10-4.

Now you got a lot of explaining to do,

just what the hell you're doin' snooping

around up here, boy.

Hey, you know, like you said,

I'm just a peeping Tom.

George! Vincent!

Get up there!

This is George.

We´re on the hill.

We only find Frank.

George, Vincent, answer me.

George, Vincent, are you there?

Answer me, George. Answer me, Vincent.

We can't answer you anymore.

We´re dead.

Damn!

Back up, one step at a time!

I've got eyes everywhere, so watch it!

First one to move is a dead man.

Michael.

Michael Ransom.

You okay, Major?

Fine.

These men are protecting me.

I thought you were in trouble.

No trouble.

Put down the gun.

Come on, Michael.

Give it to me.

We've got to go, Jenkins.

Hold it!

Attention!

All right, Ransom, come out with your hands on your head.

You've got 30 seconds to get out of the house.

Let's go!

Bring out Major Jenkins and leave him to us.

We have no further need of you, Ransom.

So get the hell out and fast!

Bring him to us at once.

We want the major.

We don't want you, Ransom, so vanish!

Run!

Hand over Major Jenkins and you can go.

Is that clear?

Okay, Ransom!

Do as I tell you and get a move on!

All right, bring him down to the landing spot.

Well, Mr. Ransom.

Yeah, right.

We managed to get you out of here,

but it wasn't too easy.

Ah, here's Mr. Lee,

the local chief of police.

I think you ought to apologize to him.

It's Mr. Roeg you should thank.

If it had not been for him,

you wouldn't have gotten off so lightly.

Individuals like you are not desired in this country.

Hey, hey, come on, shake hands now.

Be seein' you, pal.

This business is beginning to get on my nerves.

You mind telling me who you are?

Kelly Sellers,

special agent, counterespionage.

So where are we headed?

First, to your hotel,

so you can get freshened up.

And then to Mr. Roeg.

He has a lot of things to explain to you.

Well, I hope so,

for your sake.

We received this tape this morning.

This is a special message from,

from Vic Jenkins to Peter Roeg.

I am being held prisoner by a group of men.

The leader's name is Huan To.

They demand a ransom of $10 million,

um, in diamonds.

There will be no negotiation.

These diamonds will be sent by a special agent

who will parachute into Section M

of the Burmese Plain, 48 hours.

If these demands are not met,

then i will be handed over to the KGB.

I don't understand what's going on here.

You're a civilian, Ransom.

You shouldn't have been involved in what happened.

What is Vic Jenkins to you?

A frozen agent.

What do you mean a frozen agent?

He's in the know about important secrets,

very important secrets.

The KGB already tried to kidnap him, three days ago.

The official date of his death, right?

Precisely, now, we,

we passed him off as dead.

Every day, we moved him

to throw the enemy secret service off his track,

but we didn't expect anything like this.

All things considered,

the kidnappers got to him through me.

I've looked into your background, Ransom.

You're a Vietnam war hero.

And you're tied to Jenkins by a very special debt.

He saved my life.

I'm willing to sacrifice myself to help him.

What happens once I get the diamonds?

They'll probably sell him to the KGB anyway,

or kill him.

Then I want to be the one to go.

It's too dangerous.

I don't give a damn.

Somebody wanted me to come to Manila and get involved.

And now that I am,

they're gonna have to settle up with me, in person.

You are the most suitable man for the job, Ransom.

But I want to make one thing clear.

Go on.

I'll only consider the mission accomplished

when you get back here with Vic Jenkins, dead or alive.

Do you understand?

Hi there.

You trust these guys?

Oh, we pay them well,

much more than the others.

And then we don't throw temptation their way.

No, no, no, no, no, no!

Where´s Nisson?

Nisson!

The boss wants to give you a few last-minute instructions.

He'll be on the air in about, uh, 20 minutes.

I'll be back to get you in the chopper

at the point marked on the map, in five days.

Good luck, pal.

Thanks.

Hey!

Well, Hog, what do you say about my beer, huh?

Your beer is excellent, Rosanna.

And I can hold it very well.

That's why I'm gonna beat you.

Ah!

You have already lost, Hog.

What are the rules?

First to belch loses.

The first to belch?

Watch.

Gimme a drink.

Beer?

No, thanks.

This is all there is, other than beer.

Got any ice?

Sure.

Help yourself.

Get him to shut up!

Yeah, I beated him!

Yes, I win. I win.

It was just a little breath in my lungs!

Yeah, right!

What's wrong? You're not gonna croak in my tavern, are you?

How disgusting!

Get him out of here!

The Moulin Rouge is closed for the night.

Come on, everyone, get your ugly mugs out of here.

I've seen enough of them for one night.

And that goes for you too, stranger.

The Moulin Rouge is closed for the day.

But I just got here.

There's too much fog outside.

I could get lost.

Do you know what I feel when I look

into those baby blues of yours, stranger?

No, what?

Suspicious.

You smell like trouble a mile off.

I can assure you, you are mistaken, madam.

If you don't mind, may I?

No.

We're closed till tomorrow,

so haul your ass back to the sewer you came from!

I've always been assailed by a nagging doubt.

Perhaps I can help you.

Well, it is like this.

I've never been sure whether women are stupid

because they are courageous

or whether they are courageous because they are stupid.

They're stupid 'cause they're courageous.

Please.

Be seated, madam.

The diamonds.

First, I want to see Vic Jenkins.

One thing at a time, Mr. Ransom.

First, the diamond.

You want the diamonds?

You hand over Vic Jenkins first.

Take it or leave it.

I take what I want.

That wasn't part of the deal.

There are some things I don't find amusing.

Hyah, hyah!

Kill them! Kill them all!

I said you smelled like trouble,

but this is ridiculous.

I can wait until you're charred to a crisp.

Diamonds are fireproof, you know.

I wouldn't advise you to wait.

I've got 10 crates of dynamite.

What?

Where?

Here, under the bar.

What the fuck?

Go!

Hi.

Where are the diamonds?

He's got them, I swear.

So now you're gonna rape me, right?

I hate women.

Yeah, I have a lot of gay friends, too.

I hate queers.

You're hurting me.

Please, don't kill me.

If you want to pray, get up on your knees.

Like this? Perfect.

So you mean to say you were up

in that goddamn tree the whole time, huh?

Yeah.

So why didn't you do something earlier?

Well, you know what they say.

Two's company. Three's a crowd.

Besides, you two looked so cozy.

You son of a bitch!

While you were birdwatching up that goddamn tree,

that cheese-faced goon nearly cut my head off.

Why are you limping?

After everything you've done to me,

you're asking me why I'm limping, for Christ's sake.

Thank God I'm still in one piece.

Anyway, I have twisted my ankle, if you really want to know.

There are nine diamonds here.

One is missing, and all of a sudden, you start limping!

Oh, so you think that I-

Hand it over!

Make it snappy.

You've destroyed my tavern.

I've lost all my savings,

and if that isn't enough for you, my barman,

who also happens to be my business partner, is dead.

Well, you don't look too cut up about it.

Well, he was a stinker, just like you.

Anyway, I demand that you pay for the damages.

Hey, you!

The name is Michael!

Okay, Michael, you're here on business, right?

Yeah, I guess you could put it like that.

The tavern was worth $20,000,

and then there is the 10,000 I have stashed away.

It's all going up in smoke now.

$20,000 for that dump?

Oh, so the Moulin Rouge was a dump, huh?

It was not!

Anyway, then there's the death

of my business partner to consider.

He came here with $20,000.

Now that makes it a total of $50,000 even.

Michael!

What do you want exactly?

To come in on your business with a capital of $50,000.

And when the deal is clinched, we go 50-50.

What do you say?

All right, it's a deal.

All right, partner.

So where do we start?

First, I've got to find a certain Huan To.

Did you say Huan To?

Yeah, you know where he is?

Do you realize that he is the biggest drug trafficker

in this region?

He only slaughters anyone in cold blood

that tries to oppose him.

And he's also a perverted maniac.

He gets his rocks off by torturing women.

Well, if you're scared,

we can always dissolve the partnership.

Hey, wait for me.

You'll never find him without me.

Come on.

Where we going?

To Huan To's camp, of course.

Of course.

This is a tricky one.

The whole camp's completely enclosed

and patrolled by armed guards.

I bet they reinforce the patrols at night, too.

Do you know what's in there?

The whole camp is a giant refinery

for pure heroin.

That swine Huan To has made millions out

of that filthy stuff.

Huan To, which one is he?

That's him there.

Watch out.

Uh, let's go.

You won't have to.

What do you mean I won't have to?

Because I'm goin' back to camp by myself.

What, are you nuts?

Look, we're only gonna interrupt

the partnership temporarily.

You mean, you're gonna go in there on your own?

There's someone in there,

risking the same fate as my friend.

And that someone's very important to me.

He's a friend of mine.

You're important to me, too.

Listen, if you want to kill yourself,

just go right ahead.

I don't care.

But not until we've split the proceeds.

If I go in there with the diamonds,

they'll kill me.

If I give them to you like I just did...

Kill you?

Yeah, so I don't have much choice, do I?

No.

But we're partners now, right?

Hm? Right.

Right.

50-50

Here's what we're gonna do.

We'll meet tomorrow at dawn, on the Bantoy Plain,

three miles east of your tavern.

Ex-tavern.

Anyway...

You're gonna be there?

Right?

With the diamonds?

You can count on me.

Okay, you better find a safe place to hide.

Good luck.

What do you want?

Make a move, and I'm gonna slit your throat

from ear to ear.

Let me go.

Take me to Vic Jenkins.

Fuck you.

Fuck you.

Now you gonna take me to Vic Jenkins?

Okay. Let's go.

Major.

Michael, they sent you?

Are you all right?

Well, they haven't tortured me yet,

if that's what you mean.

I'm taking you home.

I can't believe it,

that you got in here on your own.

I was your best, remember?

That's right.

The best.

I have a partner waiting for us at a safe place,

with the diamonds.

Oh, that was clever of you,

not to bring them with you.

Come on, let's get outta here.

Michael!

Turn around.

Thanks, Major.

All for one and one for all,

the old Strike Commando motto.

Remember?

I haven't forgotten.

Michael, what is it?

Michael?

What's wrong?

Someone in the trees.

I guess I was mistaken, Major.

Maybe there's no one there after all.

Let's stop here for a while.

It's not far.

Another half hour by foot and we're there.

Tell me.

What does this all mean to you, Michael?

All What?

Well, I mean,

you being back in action again,

the smell of the jungle, Vietnam.

You haven't quite canceled the war out of here yet.

Have you, Mike?

That's why you're here.

I don't like being in combat again,

having to kill.

But if the life of a man like you is at stake,

I'm prepared to do it.

And the diamonds?

I'm not interested in the diamonds.

As far as I'm concerned,

once we board that chopper,

my job is done.

Okay, let's move it.

This is the moment of truth, soldier.

Hey, what kind of double cross is this?

This is Captain Svet Krominski, KGB.

I call him Kramet.

It´s easier.

He's my right-hand man.

Now tell me, Michael,

where's your right-hand man?

Your partner? The diamonds?

I don't see anybody.

Can't he ever get anything right?

What are you waiting for?

Search this place from top to bottom.

You bastard.

Why me, huh?

Huh?

Why?

Of all the people you could've used,

Why'd you have to get me mixed up in all this?

Because you're special, that's why.

You're part of a dying breed,

fearless and thoughtless heroes.

You owed it to me.

I saved your life, so you had to save mine.

Now my right-hand man here, Captain Krominski,

I told him not to take any personal initiative,

because I was quite certain

that you would bring the diamonds right to my doorstep.

But he's dangerous,

as no doubt you've noticed.

Excellent.

I want you to work day and night.

Our clients are in a hurry.

All right.

Welcome to the world of international drug smuggling.

Thanks to you, all of this will be mine.

Well, at least 50% of it will.

Now, Michael, where are the diamonds?

Michael, Roeg, Peter Roeg hasn't got the slightest intention

of getting me back.

First, I was a frozen agent.

Now, I'm a burnt-out agent.

If I talked, I would've been eliminated.

Come over here.

Come here.

Michael, your destiny and mine are closely linked together.

Now these diamonds, that, that $10 million,

well, that was, that was my payoff

for years of service to the CIA.

And nobody but nobody is gonna deprive me of it.

Come on, Michael.

You're an honest man. I like you.

I've saved your life once before.

I'll save it again.

Come work for me.

I'll make you a rich man.

Now where are the diamonds?

So you feed me that little story, huh,

send me on a one-way mission to nowhere?

What was it again?

All for one, one for all, right, Major?

What happened to you?

I trusted you completely.

I woke up.

That's what happened to me.

I woke up, so should you.

You're an expendable pawn, Michael,

an expendable pawn.

I've been using you for my own ends.

I'm not an expendable pawn.

You can get that idea out of your head, right now.

Kramet, Jimmy,

if you don't tell me where those diamonds are,

Kramet is gonna detach your head

from your shoulders, very, very slowly.

Now, Michael, where are the diamonds?

Talk, Michael!

I don't know.

For Christ's sake, I don't know.

I don't have the diamonds anymore.

Vic,

fuck you.

FUCK you!

I don't want anything to do with you anymore.

Kramet, don't kill him.

Just make him talk.

How can you drink that stuff at this hour of the day?

It's the only thing

that gives me a little strength, honey.

Well, I guess Mother was right.

I'm just bad, that's all.

There you are.

You'll get first choice after me.

Come on, let's get the girls out!

Let's get 'em!

In here!

Watch your step, baby.

You're all right.

Come on, baby!

You have been disrespectful, Mr. Ransom.

Or shall I call you Michael?

You made me suffer.

Very foolish.

You really must learn to respect your superiors.

Just pretend you didn't hear it.

That's easy for you to say.

I know that voice.

Come on, go! Ha, everyone, let's go.

Hey, you.

Today's your lucky day.

You're just made for Huan To.

Come on, woman.

Hold on.

Michael.

Michael, this is no time to sleep.

I have a shocking surprise for you.

I'm gonna kill you, you son of a bitch.

Yes, you like that, huh?

Would you like some more, huh?

I would like to propose a toast to women.

I adore you.

You are such a special creature.

Your relationship with physical pain

has something sublime about it.

No man would stand labor pains and birth the way you do.

Well, I haven't had any children,

so I wouldn't know.

And virginity,

another test you have to undergo,

that combines the two concepts

that interest me the most,

pleasure and pain,

pain and pleasure.

Oh, I can't stand it

when the bubbles get up my nose.

They tickle and make me sneeze.

Oh!

What are you doing?

You're hurting me, 0w!

Painful?

You son of a bitch!

Now you are going to do everything I tell you,

or I'll carve up that pretty little head.

You only had to ask.

Where are the diamonds?

You will tell me,

or you will die.

What is this?

Ah.

Painful?

Hyah! Hai!

Hyah!

Hai, hai, hyah!

What are you doing here?

Come on, let's get out of here.

Come on!

Die, you bastards!

Come on!

What the fuck are you doing?

Let go of me!

You're putting me in there?

Shut up and get down!

You won't get very far, Ransom.

Woo!

Go on, get going.-

All right, go get him! Kill the bastard!

Ransom, what are you doing?

Stay down!

You are unbelievable!

Are you okay?

You throw me in that goddam truck,

and a gang of thugs gag and tie me up

like a fucking Christmas turkey.

I don't get a chance to get the diamonds,

and now you're asking me if I'm okay?

What did you say about the diamonds?

They're back at the camp.

What?

They're back at the camp.

They're back at the camp?

Isn't that what I just said?

I knew it.

I knew you were gonna screw me around one way or another.

It's your fault, for Christ's sake.

You just came bursting in there,

slapped the machine gun in my hand,

and you dragged me out,

and you started shooting everything in sight.

How did you I know you were gonna be there, huh?

You were supposed to be waiting for me

on the Bantoy Plain, with the diamonds.

But no, instead you show up looking like a prostitute,

with a black wig, with a bald, fat Chinaman on the floor,

with a knife in his back and another guy gettin' ready

to cut your head off.

Are you finished?

Are we going back there or not?

Are we going back there or not!

Well, of course, we're going back there!

I just gotta try to figure out how I'm gonna do this, okay?

Can't exactly go in that piece of shit.

Will that do?

Brilliant!

Perfect!

And just how do you expect me to fly that thing

and shoot at the same time, huh?

Why don't you just shoot and leave the rest to me?

I'll get that thing going, all right?

Oh, you mean to tell me you can drive one of those?

Let's just say I've had a very colorful life, yeah.

I'll tell you all about it tonight, darling.

Ready for the first round?

Ready!

Yahoo!

Yahoo!

Yeah!

Wow!

Yeah!

Go on!

Go on! Get 'em!

Go!

I've got some unfinished business to take care of.

You just take care of the diamonds.

Yes, sir!

Jenkins!

Jenkins!

Jenkins!

Jenkins!

Ah!

on shit!

Oh shit.

Oh no.

Oh no .

Oh.

I can't believe what's happening to me.

What am I gonna tell him now?

Ch, that's it.

You've come home to Mama.

So you've come back.

That's right, Major.

I've come back.

Haven't you got it through that fuckin' head of yours?

This whole thing is a farce.

Roeg and his friends don't give a fuckin' damn about you.

They sacrificed you to get the diamonds to me.

I put them up to it.

They don't want your face or my face in circulation anymore.

We can reveal too much.

So I'm offering you a partnership.

I can make you a very rich man.

I've come to kill you.

You can't kill me.

You owe me your life.

Now you're thinkin' straight.

Partner.

You're making a great mistake, Michael.

Now we're even.

Ah, Michael!

Fighting women now are you, big man?

How'd you like to dance a few rounds with me?

That will be a real pleasure,

if you think you're man enough.

Come on.

Come on.

Kill the fuckin' asshole!

Let me kill the fuckin' bastard.

No!

Look, I got 'em. I got 'em.

Remember, 50-50.

Now I can buy a new bar,

a Moulin Rouge in Malibu, yeah.

And I can invite all the stars,

drink Dom Perignon and Cristal Champagne,

eat Beluga caviar, and buy a car,

yeah, a BMW, with a car phone in it.

And I can get a stereo with a, with a CD player, yeah.

And I can, uh, buy a mansion,

in Beverly Hills, for us.

Did you ever hear of Covington, Montana?
