All language subtitles for The Rockford Files S03e18 New Life, Old Dragons_prob3

They tried to kill me.
Now, who were they?

Not know.

Sounds to me like
the makings of a trade.
How's it sound to you?

Like kidnapping,
20-to-life.

You want to die here?
You understand? Die?

There's an inspection
going on. I'll see you later.

What am I? The lint
on somebody's uniform?

Who did that to you?

Americans.

They took Vinh.

Rocky.

(PHONE RINGING)

ROCKFORD
ON ANSWERING MACHINE..
This is Jim Rockford.

At the tone, leave your name
and message.

I'll get back to you.

(BEEPS)

PETE.. It's Pete.

Hope you enjoyed
using the cabin last week.

Only next time
leave the trout
in the refrigerator, huh?

Not in the cupboard.

(WOMAN CHATTERING ON PA)

The gook's here.

GUARD: Hey, stop.

ROCKY:
All I'm saying is

the place could use
a new coat of paint.

Well, you got the inside
fixed up real nice.

But that outside looks like

they ought to be taking up
a collection for you.

When somebody does,
I'll paint.

For a guy who can afford
tickets to the Laker game,

it seems to me
you could afford

a couple of bucks
for a few gallons of paint.

Dad,
I'm not going to paint
the trailer and that's it.

Supposing we was to use
seafoam green,

isn't that pretty?

Dad, I like the trailer
the way it is, all right?

(KNOCK ON DOOR)

Yes?
Mr. Rockford?

That's right. Come in.

What can I do for you?

You are detective?

Don't let the way this place
looks on the outside
throw you.

He's the best
in the business.

That's my father,
the happy homemaker.

Would you sit down,
please?

Pham Thanh Mai.

Mai.

Oh.

Say here.
Find missing person.

Vinh missing.

Brother. You find.

Well, it also says

I do complete
underwater investigations.

But, you know,
when you're composing an ad

you tend to oversell.

She didn't
understand you.

You should go
to the police.

Have money.

Well, that's not the point.

What do you mean
that's not the point?

For a fellow who
can't afford to paint his...

Ma'am,
he's the best there is.

$200 a day
and expenses.

I buy.

Look, it's not that easy
to find a missing person.

You know,
LA is kind of
spread out all over.

Now, the police
have the manpower.

Go to the police.

Ain't you even gonna ask her
what happened to her brother?

Brother refugee.
Stay Camp Blanchard.

Come from Vietnam.

Last night take bus.

I meet. No Vinh.

I call sponsor, no answer.

Maybe he just
took the wrong bus.

Or maybe he got off
at the wrong station.

You promise. You find.

Okay.

Okay, you want to
throw your money away,

I'll give it my best shot.

What was your brother's
sponsor's name?

Robert Coffey.

1631 South Alexander.

BECKER: Why didn't you tell me
there was an inspection
going on?

I didn't know, Sarge.

I just passed
the brass on the way

back from
the coffee machine.

Ah, well,
just look busy.
I am busy.

You'd look a lot busier
without the coffee
in your hand.

Hi, Dennis.

What are you doing here?

I'm sorry if I caught you
at a bad time,

but I need some help.

I've been trying
to run down a guy

by the name
of Robert Coffey.

I called his house,
he doesn't answer
his phone

and the address that I have
is a vacant lot.

Do you want to give me
the details?

There aren't any.
Just what I told you.

I tried to call
the telephone company,

I didn't get
anywhere with them.

Do you think you could look
this guy Coffey up in your
crisscross directory, huh?

See if the phone's listed
in another address.

Were there any signs
of forced entry?

What are you talking about?

I'm just asking
for a phone check.

I see. Well, then you'll have
to see Lieutenant Chapman
on this.

Chapman?

Right this way, sir.

Excuse me, sir.
Have a good day, sir.

There's an inspection
going on. I'll see you later.

What am I? The lint
on somebody's uniform?

All I want to do
is use the crisscross.

Well, it's your neck.
There's brass all over
the place.

First door
on the right.

Thank you, Dennis.

Well, it's about time.

Please, don't tell me
you're not the new cook.

I'm not the new cook.

What do you want, paI?
Yeah, I was looking
for Mitch Donner.

I went by his apartment.

They told me
he was a cook
here in the hospital.

He was.
He didn't report
to work this morning.

What about a Robert Coffey?
You know him?

Never heard of him.
Check the front office.

Yeah, well, he's supposed
to be a friend of Donner's.

He's supposed
to be sponsoring
a Vietnamese refugee.

The kid's disappeared
and I can't find Coffey.

Yeah, well,
If you find him
or the Vietnamese kid

and he can cook,
I'll take him.

What is it with you
and the salt?

This is a hospital.
No salt.

None.
You see what I mean?

Yeah. Hey, listen,
what about this Coffey?

I told you,
I've never heard of him.

Look, pal,
I'm a little busy.

If Donner checks in,
you want me to tell
him something?

Yeah, would you
give him my card

and have him call me?

Sure.
Thank you.

All right.

Donner, move it.

(TIRES SCREECHING)

(CAR HORN HONKING)

Rocky.

Rocky.

(EXCLAIMING)
No more ice, please.

My brain feels like
it's frozen solid now.

Dad, if you won't let me
take you to the doctor...

Look, quit clucking
over me, will you?

I'm all right.

Well, did you get
a look at them?

No, I didn't even see
how many of them there was.

I was bending over
the desk here,

looking at paint samples,

when they come slamming in

and push me
down on the desk.

It took me
clear by surprise

or I'd have been
able to do something.

Yeah,
like get your neck broken.

How does it feel?

It's all right.

I can't figure out
what they wanted.

They didn't take the TV,
the stereo.

I mean, my camera's
back there in the closet.

What's that?

There's a couple
of $100 here.

They didn't even touch it.

I thought you said
you couldn't afford
to have the trailer painted.

What were they after?

How long have you had that
squirreled away in there?

They didn't go through
the desk drawers.

They tore up my closet,
they moved the bed.

Whatever they were looking for
had to be something specific.

Something big.

You didn't hear them
say anything?

They hit me pretty hard,
you know.

Yeah.

Hurts, huh?

(SPEAKING VIETNAMESE)

You want to die here?
You understand? Die?

(SPEAKING VIETNAMESE)

(SPEAKING VIETNAMESE)

Save it.
He's out again.

I'll spell you.

Why don't you run out
and get us a bucket
of chicken, huh?

Vinh.

(SPEAKING VIETNAMESE)

Yes?
Mrs. Hartman?

Yes.

My name is Jim Rockford.
Is Mai in?

Mai?

Yes, she lives here,
doesn't she?

(STAMMERING) Oh, yes.

I'm sorry,
it's just that

since we brought her back
with us from Vietnam
two years ago,

well, you're one of the few
people she's asked to

come visit her here
at the house. Come on in.

Thank you.

Oh, Leslie,
Mai has a visitor.

Mr. Rockford,
my husband.

How do you do?
How do you do?

I can't tell you
how pleased I am.

It's been terribly
difficult for her.

She's a lovely girl,
but she's terribly shy.

Honey, why don't you tell Mai
she has some company, huh?

Oh, yes.
Excuse me.

She's been like that
ever since we took Mai in.

90o/o mother hen.

You serve in Vietnam?

Well, not in the army.
Civilian construction.
Air bases, mostly.

We put them up,
they blew them up.

Make yourself at home.
Thank you.

Oh, here she is now.

If you'll excuse me,
I've got some paperwork to do.

Nice meeting you.
Pleasure.

Please.

You find Vinh?

Well, not yet, no.
But I have to tell you

I'm not too happy with the way
things are turning out.

Someone broke into my trailer
and searched it.

And what they found
was my father.

They knocked him cold.

Look, they hit him.

Your father hurt?

Not as bad as he could be.

Mai,

is there something
about your brother

that you haven't told me?

Wait.

Mr. Rockford.

$500.

Well, I don't want
any more of your money.

Take. You promise.

You find Vinh.

Okay.

(CAR ENGINE STARTING)

Leslie.

Leslie,
I've got to talk to you.

What's wrong?

It's about Mai.

What is it this time?
Well, what's-his-name
hasn't proposed to her yet?

(CHUCKLES)

Leslie, he's a detective.

What?
He is a detective.

I just saw her
giving him $500

to try to locate
somebody named Vinh.

Oh, that's what's
got you so upset, huh?

Leslie, if she's in
some kind of trouble,

we have a responsibility.

Where would she get $500?

Well, she's been here
two years, she saved it.

All right. Who's Vinh?

That is none
of our business.

Look,
you know what happened
with the relocation program.

Families split up,
spread all over the country.

It just seems...
Don't interrupt me.

You're the one
who wanted her
to make new friends.

Well, what's wrong
with finding one
this way?

Just relax, will you?
Stop hovering.

Let Mai do what she wants

and let me get back
to my work, okay?

Rocky.

All right, hold it.

Yeah, well, I'm holding it.

That's nice.

You just answer
a couple of questions,
nobody gets hurt, huh?

Sounds fair to me.
What do you want to know?

What do you got to
do with Vinh? Vinh!

Hey, there's nothing
I'd rather do than
cooperate with you,

but I don't know
what you're talking about.

Keep stalling, Rockford,
and you're gonna wind up on
a wheelchair basketball team.

What was the name again?

No games.
Just answer the question.

Now, look, you see that?

Go, go, go, go!

I thought
we were gonna paint.

(GUN FIRING)

All right, you got them.
They're stuck.

Nice work, Rocky.

L.J.: Jim,
I don't mind painting,

but I sure don't like
nobody trying to shoot at me.

Oh, nobody likes
to get shot at.

Yeah, but I don't
like it in particular.

Okay, L.J.,
later, all right?

Mai, they wanted
answers from me.

Now, I want them from you.
And I think I've earned a few.

The two guys
that came to my trailer,

they knew
your brother's name

and they tried
to cancel my ticket.

They tried to kill me.
Now, who were they?

I telling you truth.
Not know.

Mai,
if you don't level with me,

we're not going
to get anywhere.

Not know men.

Maybe know why.

At least that's a start.

You know American Rangers?

Yeah.

Near home, whole bunch
American Rangers.

Vinh work their camp.

One night Viet Cong
made rocket attack.

Whole bunch
American Rangers killed.

Soldiers blame Vinh.

Say he give
information Viet Cong.

Did your brother
tell them?

No! Vinh no go around
with Viet Cong.

Vinh likes Americans.

Vinh like cowboys.

All the time going
American cowboy movies.

When Vinh escape Rangers,

hide in Binh Thuan province.

I no see him two years.

You think the two guys that
came to my trailer were part
of the Ranger outfit?

I've known folks
that'd carry a grudge

a lot farther than
Saigon to Los Angeles.

Night I go bus meet Vinh,

guard say two men chase.

Maybe catch, maybe torture.

Why didn't you tell me this?
Even better, why didn't you
tell the police?

You find.

You no find,
they kill Vinh.

Excuse me,
has Mitch Donner
checked in yet?

No.
And don't count on him.

Yeah, well,
what about the manager?

You're looking at him.
I'm administration.

Oh, yeah? You know,
you're not the same guy
I talked to the other day...

Benson Kelly.
Yeah.

Yeah, well,
he's the reason that
I'm in charge of all of this.

He said he couldn't
stand it anymore.
What, he quit?

Well, he said
he had to get up to
the Sierras and think.

Now, look, you're gonna
have to excuse me

because I got to do
something about lunch.
Maybe I should call my...

Wait a minute,
wait a minute,
wait a minute.

All right, fella.
Excuse me.

About this Kelly and Donner,
are they pretty tight?

Well, they've been
buddies since Vietnam.

Same Ranger battalion,
right?

Well, that's a laugh.
Kitchen rangers, maybe.

The closest
they ever got to action

was a food fight
in the mess hall.

Now, mister,
those two loafers
were potato soldiers.

They were
quartermaster corps.

Man, I think
this is a major mistake.

I think Ben's
got the right idea.

Give the kid some rope
and he'll lead us
where we want to go.

Don't lose him.

Boy, I'll tell you, Dad,
if there's one thing I hate,

I just hate
to get suckered.

Well, maybe you're being too
hard on that little old girl.

She's done nothing
but lie to me.

Those two gorillas
weren't in the Rangers,

they were in
the quartermaster corps.

Well,
suppose she don't
know the difference.

She knows the difference
between an M-16
and a chicken fried steak.

You said we was
gonna paint the trailer.

I said,
''I got a couple of hours.''

I get shot at,
drove all over town.

Okay, L.J.
I'll take you
back to your shop.

I've got to
pick up my car anyway.

Now, just hold on.
There's nobody going no place.

We all agreed we're going
to paint the trailer.

Who all agreed?

We're taking the paint
back to the shop

and get a refund
of my money.

Oh, now, look, it ain't
as though you don't have
no money. You got a client.

That's what you think.

She's got one more chance
to make some sense

and if she doesn't,
we're finished.

(DOORBELL RINGING)

(VINH SPEAKING VIETNAMESE)

This could be
where it is.

Could be.
You take the back.

ROCKFORD: How long ago
did you get the call?

MAI: Few minute.

Friend of Vinh from
refugee camp named Nguyen

have information.

ROCKFORD: Okay.
Let's see what
he has to say.

You told him we were coming?

He wait.

Nguyen?

Nguyen.

(SPEAKING VIETNAMESE)

Hey, who did that to you?

Two men. Americans.

They took Vinh.

We fought,
but they had guns.

You think you could
describe them for me?

One was a big man.

The other was taller,
thinner.

Sounds like old friends.

Was Vinh here
when they came?

Perhaps two minutes.

What did they
want to know?

They wanted Vinh.

They had Vinh.

They wanted some
kind of information.
Now, what was it?

What you do?

You won't let the guy talk,
so I'm calling the police.

MAI: No!

There's been a FederaI
crime committed, kidnapping.

Nguyen is a witness

or he's an accessory.

Now, either you allow him
to tell me what's going on

or he can
tell it to the police.

Vinh has something
they want.

He won't tell them.
So they ask me.

(SPEAKING VIETNAMESE)

I do not want your money.

Mai said she would
pay me $1000

to do no more than
describe them to you.

Give you information
to help you find them,

but not reveaI
what they wanted.
She's rich.

She has many American dollars.

But she doesn't
want to tell you.

That is what they want.

Mr. Rockford, wait, wait,
where you go?

I've got a couple of tickets
for the Lakers game.

I thought I might use them.

You're going
to a basketball game?

Didn't you hear
what Nguyen said?
They have Vinh.

Look, I paid you $700.
That ought to buy more
than a quick brush-off.

Crash course in Berlitz?

All right,
I speak English.

I also speak French.

Ah, but pidgin English,
that's where you really shine.

There was a reason
for that.

Sure. Not understanding's
very convenient

when you don't
want to answer questions.

I understand greed,
Mr. Rockford.

I didn't know
if I could trust you.

Now, I think I can.

Well, that's too bad.
Because now I don't trust you.

I don't know which tear-jerker
is upsetting my stomach.

You weren't there,
you don't know
what it was like.

When are you going
to stop using it?

The truth this time, okay?
Just hear me out, huh?
Please.

Okay, okay,
why don't we
just start with

why those two war hawks
are after your brother?

Vinh was a driver
for a Vietnamese colonel

attached to
the quartermaster corps.

Sort of a liaison
between your army
and ours.

The colonel, like many others,
dealt in black market money.

American dollars?

All American personnel
were supposed to use only
Vietnamese money or script.

But US currency
was constantly

being smuggled
in and out of the country.

What about our two
enterprising kitchen rangers?

Were they partners
with the colonel?

How much did they steaI?
I don't know exactly.

But Vinh said
there were actually three men.

Near the end, the colonel
was ambushed and killed.

Vinh ended up with his
briefcase containing $50,000.

And you smuggled it
into this country

when the Hartmans
brought you
back home with them.

Well, we had no choice.

Vinh was still in the army
and he knew the three men
would be after it.

We didn't have anything.

It was a fortune.
Do you understand?

Yeah. Yeah, I understand.

And it's becoming
pretty clear

that the third gorilla
was Benson Kelly,

alias Robert Coffey.

Maybe the police
will understand, too.

How many times do I have to
tell you, I don't want to
involve the police?

Mai, either
we involve the police,

or you're in
this thing alone.

I need your brother's
full name, Miss.

Pham Van Vinh.

That it?

It's got an ''H.''
V-I-N-H.

Okay.

The color of his hair?

Eyes?

Height? Weight?

I don't know. Mai,
how tall is your brother?

Just put down medium.

Could you be just
a little bit more specific?

If you could tell me how?
I've never seen him.

Oh, that's great.
Then there's a good chance
that he doesn't even exist.

He exists.

Mai, look, I know
how you feel about cops.

If you trust me,
you can trust Dennis.

Mai, they've got your brother.
They're chasing us.

If you don't help us,
we can't fill out
the police report.

Wait a minute.

I need a description
of your brother.

Mai not understand.
Mai not have brother.

She's lying.
She understands.

She speaks English
like Sir John Gielgud.

Well, what am I
supposed to do?

Fill out the police report.

I'm telling you,
her brother has
been kidnapped.

She says she doesn't
even have a brother.

Now, what am I
supposed to do?

Fill out a report
based on hearsay,

bring it
to Lieutenant Chapman?

What do you
think is gonna happen?

Mr. Rockford.

Mr. Rockford.

Hey.
I don't speak English.

I'm sorry. I couldn't
let you tell the police.

Well, of course,
you couldn't.

My father gets clobbered,
I get clobbered,

Nguyen gets beat up,
your brother gets kidnapped.

No, what do we need
the police for?

Let's just call in
the coroner.

That money is all we have.

We're not even considered
permanent residents here.

We're parolees.

Now, what am I supposed to do?

Scrub toilets, floors,
wash dishes?

Vinh and I need that money.

I'm sorry, Mai,
I really am, but...

I mean,
those two guys
saw us together.

They're going
to keep in touch.

Now what am I supposed to say
when I get a ransom call, huh?

Now, what do you want?

You want your brother
or do you want the money?

You can't have both.

I want my brother. Safe.

(RINGING)

Hello.

BENSON.. Rockford?
Yeah.

Your lady friend's got
something that belongs
to us.

Sounds to me like
the makings of a trade.
How's it sound to you?

Like kidnapping,
20-to-life.

When you're dealing
for half a million,

what's a couple of years?

You mean $50,000.

She's got half a million.
We've got her brother.

Let's not play games.

You just stay close to home,
get the bread together.

You'll be contacted
in the morning
with more instructions.

Oh, sure,
all alone by the telephone,

so you know
right where to find me,

knock me off and boost
the half a million, huh?
No, you forget it.

Leave your instructions
on my phone machine.

I've got a remote unit and
I'll check in every half hour.

(PHONE RINGING)

Hello.
They called.

Is Vinh all right?
That's what they say.

You got the money
close at hand?

Yes, it's hidden.
What am I supposed
to do with it?

Just leave it
right where it is.

I'll be over
in the morning.

And, Mai,
they want all of it.

The whole $500,000.

(DIAL TONE DRONING)

We're alone.

Mr. Hartman went to work

and Mrs. Hartman
went shopping.

The money's in here.
In here?

Yeah.
Put it on the bed.

Okay.

Okay.

Fill this thing up.

I'm going to see
if our friends
have called yet.

(BEEPING)

Well, there's nothing
on the answer phone yet.

Mai, step away from there.

No, Mr. Hartman,
you don't understand.

It's my money.

I haven't done
anything wrong
to get it.

Oh, I know all about where
the money came from.

Now, I said step back.

It's been sitting here
for three years
in that crummy elephant?

I thought the kid
was going to bring it over.

Want to hear something funny?

Cathy almost gave this away
to the St. Vincent de PauI
Society last spring.

Please, Mr. Hartman.
I need that money.

Somebody
have my brother...
Oh, I know.

Benson Kelly,
Mitchell Donner

and another Section 8
by the name of Gary Stillman.

You're about
the best-informed

construction engineer
I've ever met.

And don't tell me,
let me guess.

That was your cover
in Nam.

Are you CIA?
Army Intelligence?

Army CID.

Assigned to the Colonel Tranh-
Benson Kelly money conduit.

We almost got them, too.

But the poor colonel
was vaporized

when his jeep
hit a claymore.

That's when you decided
to cross the line?

Well, the war was ending.

Just another ex-soldier
without any prospects.

I knew Vinh had wound up
with a half a million dollars,

but I couldn't locate him.

I mean,
everything was coming down.
It was pure chaos over there.

So I talked
Cathy into bringing
our little Mai stateside.

I thought he had the money.

But, I knew
she and the kid

would connect up
with each other one day.

Your own supplement
to the GI Bill.

Move over against that wall.

(SPEAKING VIETNAMESE)

Was Mrs. Hartman
in on the plan with you?

She and I can hardly
agree on when to make love,

much less anything else.

Now, I said turn around
and face that wall.

Move!

(SCREAMS)

Get up in here.

Mai. Mai?

Hey. You all right?

Yes.

Here, sit up.

(GROANING)

Let me help you.

Sit down.

You sure you're all right?
Yeah, I think so.

I got to check my phone.

(BEEPING)

ROCKFORD ON
ANSWERING MACHINE.. ...leave
your name and message.

(BEEPS)
I'll get back to you.

BENSON.. Rockford, Kelly.
What good's it gonna do?
We don't have the money.

The wharf. 9..00 a.m.
Be there.

They called,
didn't they?

We make the exchange
in half an hour.

What exchange?

They're going to kill him.
Not if we give them
what they're after.

We can't.

Where does Hartman
keep his records?

His phone bills, his,
you know, calendar,
address book?

In the study.
But I don't see...

If Hartman was smart enough
to figure this whole thing out

he's smart enough to know
that he cannot spend
government payroll money.

He'll have to fence the money.
All we have to do is find out
who the fence is.

Here, look through
the calendar.

But how will I know
if I find anything?

Just read the entries
out loud.

I'm not sure where
he keeps the paid bills,

they may not even be here.

Well, the phone bill's
a long shot, anyway.

Just got to go
with what we got.

''Dinner. Hal and Thelma.

''Green Duck. 7:30.''

It won't be
in the social notes.

Look for anything
that sounds like
a business appointment.

Oh.

Chamber of commerce.
That's it.

Chamber of commerce?

The Fontaine Brothers
Pet Food Company.

The Fontaine brothers
wouldn't know
a doggie biscuit

if it was stuck
in their ear.

Where's the phone?
Over there. But...

The pet food company
is just a front.

They're one of the largest
fences in town.

I'll call the police
and clue them in on Hartman.

What is it?

(GASPS)

(SIRENS WAILING)

Somebody must
have heard the shot
and called the police.

Let's go.

Come on.

Why didn't you stop?
That was the police.

All of a sudden you want
to talk to the police.

We've got 15 minutes
to get to the exchange.

There's a dead woman lying
on the floor of that house,

and we were
the only two people in it.

Why are we going
to the exchange?

We don't have the money.

Okay, then let's not
go to the exchange.

Do you want to try that?

Mrs. Hartman was my friend.

How could he do that to her?

Maybe she tried
to stop him.

I got an idea.
Maybe we can deaI
with the kidnappers.

But first I want
to drop you off.

There's something
I want you to do for me.

(MACHINERY CLANKING)

I hope there won't be
any late arrivals,
Rockford.

My friend's gonna
be keeping an eye
on you.

I came alone.

Where's the money?

I don't have it.

What?

I don't have it.

Now just a freaking minute!

This is a ransom exchange.
This is the ransom exchange.

You're not going to
get another chance!

The money was taken
by Mai's sponsor,

a guy named
Leslie Hartman.

He's a former Army CID.

He's known about this thing
from the beginning.

Okay, whack the kid.
Right now.

Hold on! There's no
percentage in that.

We can get the money back,
but we need Vinh alive.

Hold it, Gary.

Now what's with ''We''?
What about we? Talk.

(SIGHS)
To tell you the truth, I...

If Hartman hadn't have
pulled his little number,

I was planning
on doing it myself.

Talk about the money!
Talk about the money!

Hartman's going to fence it
with some local brokers.

I know these guys.
I've had dealings
with them before.

And you're
cutting us in on it

because you're
so crazy about us.

I'm cutting you in

because I can't
walk in on these people
and take it back myself.

These are heavy guys?

Well, there's two of them,

and one of them's
just a little schizoid.

Plus Hartman,
he'll be there.

Why are you so anxious
to keep the kid alive?

I was hired to find Vinh.

I'm on the record
with the police

as having been involved
with him. You're not.

GARY: What are we
gonna do, Ben?
Shut up.

Hey, we've been sitting
on top of this for four years.

I say let's take his deal.
Right now we got squat.

Okay.

Get in the van.

(BOAT HORN BLOWING)

BENSON: This guy Hartman
was supposed to show.

(SIGHS)
You know what one of
your problems is, Benny?

You don't know how
to sit on a rabbithole.

I'm sitting in front
of this dog food factory
for 20 more minutes, slick.

Then if we get
no results,

I'm taking you
and this banana out
in the middle of nowhere

and introducing you to
a couple of six-foot holes.

Come on, now.

You guys are really
taking this whole thing
too seriously.

Believe me, we just wait
for Hartman to arrive,

then we go on in and relieve
these guys of the money.

You sure we can handle them?
There's only two?

Yeah, plus Hartman.
There's nothing to it.

Tommy Fontaine is a shrimp,

and, well, Sal is big,
but he's mostly fat.

Hey, now hold it.
Just hold it a minute.

Then when we hit them,
we'll not only get
the half a mil,

but we can get
the cold money

the Fontaine Brothers
have raised.

Come on, Benny,
let's move it.

I'm getting tired
of sitting around.

Come on, slick,
you're leading
the parade.

(MACHINERY HUMMING)

Those guys are monsters.

Come on, fellows.
We can take them.

(CAN CLANGING)

(GUN FIRING)

(SIREN WAILING)

OFFICER: Don't move.

Stay where you are.

Vinh! Vinh!
Mai!

(SPEAKING VIETNAMESE)

It's good to see you,
Dennis.

What took you so long?

Well, you had Mai call me,
so I found the whole thing

a little hard
to believe at first.

Well, she has a little
credibility gap,

but she's not an
out-and-out liar.

Forget her credibility gap.

When anybody
calls me and tells me

that an allegedly
rational adult

would go to a kidnap exchange
with no backup and no money,

well, I find that
hard to swallow.

Yeah, well,
I wasn't too crazy
about it myself.

It seems to me
you're being mighty
hard-nosed about this, Son.

It ain't going
to cost you
that much.

Rocky, you haven't
been listening.

I like the trailer
the way it is.

It has character.

All right, all right,
I won't say no more about it.

Good.
I'll just paint
the front door

and then if you don't like it,
we'll let it go at that.

Hey.

Mr. Rockford.
Yeah.

Hey, I told you that
we'd help you get moved.

You didn't...
Oh, thank you anyway.

But there wasn't
that much.

How's your
brother feeling?

Angry. Disappointed.

Hi, there.
How you doing?

He doesn't speak English.

Have you found a place
to live yet?

No.

We just came by
to say goodbye,

and thank you
for giving us
a new life.

Thank you.

All right, now listen,
you be careful on the highway.

Okay.

Does Vinh here know all
the signals and everything?

Yes.

Be careful.

You know, Dad...

Rocky!
