Big move.

Big move for who?

Checkmate in two more turns.

- Hello. - A full four more.

How you learn to play this game?

Say what?

Not a talking game, it's a killing game.

Mr. Anderson, Wayne is on the phone for you.

Wayne, what's happening? How is everything?

What happened now, Wayne?

Your boys getting out of control?

Laing is an officer of the law.

And if your boys won't listen, there is very little I can do.

All Chinese business people

knew that Blacka and Mad Max were behind

- their colleague's murder. - They never have to kill him.

When things get like that, it's out of my hands.

Wayne,

you need to come to my office and see me.

Yo...

Mr. Anderson, Mr. Anderson.

Wayne.

How you doing, friend?

Uh, have a seat, gentlemen.

Mm.

So,

what can I do to cool things?

I don't want you and Officer Laing going at it, you know.

Come on.

Listen to yourself.

I'm really sorry about your brother,

but he was like a mad dog running wild.

Wayne, election is coming up,

and I cannot afford to have any unnecessary wrongs

in my constituency.

You're going to have to work with me, Wayne.

As you know, I have a very good connection at the embassy.

I will get you and your friends the visa.

And you leave the island and go cool out for a while.

Because I can't take the heat

that is about to come on me.

I have a whole community depending on me.

Wayne,

there is nothing else on the table.

Wayne, Wayne, don't put me in a spot.

Wayne.

Wayne.

Wayne.

Detective Laing,

this is Patrick Anderson, MP.

Not good.

Detective,

we both have a common problem.

His name is Wayne.

You're familiar with him, you killed his brother.

And now it's his turn.

You can find him at Waterhouse,

anytime after dark.

And, detective,

just make sure that this problem

is permanently eradicated.

Understand?

Yeah.

- Mr. Anderson's office. - Hello, good afternoon.

May I speak to Mr. Anderson, please.

May I ask who's calling, please?

Tell him it's Detective Laing.

Mr. Andy, it's Officer Laing again.

Seven wanted men were killed by police in a shootout.

Detective Laing.

I've been watching the news all day,

and none of those seven bodies

is identified as our friend, Wayne Smith.

You fuck up this time!

Wayne?

Wayne.

Wayne, you know that this is a big misunderstanding.

We can talk, you know, friend.

What about that visa thing I told you about? Hm?

That deal still stands, you know.

I will personally take care of it myself.

Wayne, you got my word on it.

We're gonna work this thing out for the better.

Hello, Wayne?

Wayne.

So let her go now, Wayne.

Yo, what's up? Who own it this way?

So listen, right, it was this white man,

black man and this Chinese man, right?

And one day the king invited all of them

in his backyard, and he was like,

"Hear ye, hear ye, hear ye.

"Whoever could swim past this swimming pool

"I'll give my daughter to you."

There was one goddamn problem.

Motherfucker had 20 sharks in his swimming pool, right?

But you know the Chinaman.

The Chinaman not fear no fucking thing.

Shark looked at that Chinese motherfucker

and just ate him up, man.

So then the white boy jumped in next.

You know white people, they always trying to reason.

Hold on, hold on, hold on.

Yeah, hello.

Forget about the white boy, all right?

So the black man was in front of the swimming pool.

Woo!

And now the black man's on the other side like this...

So the king come over and the king's like

"What is it that you want, my son?

"I'll give you anything."

The black man look at the king and he said,

I want that motherfucker

that threw me in the motherfucking pool!

Where the big man at?

I took care of it. It's done, man.

You know all that love you show me?

Want me to show you the same love back?

Show me. Bam!

Make some runs. I'll be back. All right?
