A Dark Truth Page #6
four people coming in.
I'm gonna text you
the names.
Confirm you received them,
forward and delete.
You got that?
And... and...
Hello?!
Jack?
Yes? - Well, looks like
you're gonna get your money's worth.
When that plane lands,
We've got
to prevent Begosian
From bringing
Francis anywhere
Where he could cause
any more damage.
Because, Bruce,
if we don't, we are finished.
We've gone too far, Doug.
Too far.
Bruce, listen to me.
Francisco Francis
has many enemies.
Violent people who will
stop at nothing
To eliminate him.
They hired
an assassin... tor.
The assassin will kill
jack Begosian
And Francisco Francis.
Our security will kill
the assassin
Because they're there
protecting Morgan.
And Morgan will still
be a liability.
Am I your enemy now, Bruce?
No, but...
What you're doing will
bring down Clearbec, Morgan.
Maybe Clearbec deserves
to be brought down.
You're forgetting all the
good that we have done.
You're forgetting those
thousands of towns and villages
That we provided water for that
otherwise wouldn't have had it.
You're forgetting about all the
lives of the children that we saved.
No, I'm not. But I'm not
forgetting about Ecuador either.
I'm sorry that
that happened. I am.
But you're forgetting
to look at the big picture.
We have to move on.
We have to move forward.
- There's just too much at stake.
- Too much what?
When is it enough, Bruce?
I can't believe you of
all people would say that.
Do you remember
what daddy used to say?
It's never too late
to do the right thing.
Bruce.
Goldman brothers on two.
Robert.
I thought you'd
like to know you're funded.
You have
the $2 billion
For your
south African friends.
Thank you.
Yes?
Hello?
Are you there?
We're funded.
What do you want me
to do, Bruce?
What about your sister?
What do you want me
to do about Morgan, Bruce?
Okay.
We'll pinch them just past
The clock tower
outside the airport.
Tor, you'll take
the kill shots from the roof.
Okay. We gotta
get out of here.
- How was your flight?
- Pretty good, thank you.
- Good. You owe me one, jack.
- Yes sir.
Our subjects are Begosian...
Okay, come on.
We gotta go.
...Francis
and Morgan Swinton.
They're on their way.
Got it. We're green.
Everyone, we're green.
Go to the roof.
When tor takes them out,
I need you to kill him.
Plant this cellphone
on him.
There's 43 calls
to Aguilar.
That should be
a good enough connection.
- Yeah.
- Go.
Is this your service,
jack? Is this your mission?
I guess you can call it that.
Tor... jack Begosian,
Take the shot.
Tor, take the shot.
Tor, take the shot.
What the hell's goin' on?
Take the shot.
Tor, take the shot.
Ecuador, Ecuador, Ecuador!
Everybody down!
Everybody down!
Mama!
Oh!
Tor has turned!
Tor has turned!
Ben, take him out!
Francisco, no!
Stay down, stay down!
Get your family out!
No! Francisco!
No!
Jesus Christ.
Calder,
you son of a b*tch!
We gotta go, move!
Everybody out!
- Let's go, let's go!
- Papa!
Let's go! Let's go!
Mia!
- Let's go! Go go go!
Mia!
In the car! Let's go!
Quick, get in!
Get in!
Get in, quick!
I got it!
Let's go!
These are the pledge- Holder agreements.
- I'll get Raymond to notarize
Get out.
And Goldman wants
to be included...
- Get out!
... Toronto's front street.
Amateur footage that
we have received shows...
... Dressed in suits and armed
With automatic weapons
began a gun battle
After a near-Collision
between two vehicles...
- Yes?
Bruce.
This is salvageable.
Francis is the only one whose testimony
Can possibly hurt us
in court.
He's in the hospital.
I will personally
pay him a visit.
This is
not acceptable, Doug!
Bruce, I will protect
our company,
Our employees,
our shareholders and you.
I will fix this.
...Do not have any leads on
the cause of today's shooting...
A local hospital reports
Francisco Francis,
An eco-Terrorist whose...
As the majority shareholder
in Clearbec,
I promise a full investigation
into what happened in Ecuador.
- Thank you. Thank you, all.
Thank you.
Go. I'll talk
to you later.
Black, no sugar.
- You listened well.
- Thank you.
Why'd you do it?
It's hard to find good radio
talk show hosts these days.
The wind...
It blew
in your favor, jack.
You know,
it's not over...
While Calders still
walking around out there.
You call it.
Head or tails?
Enjets.
Yeah, this is
account number 3714826.
Yes sir.
How can we help you?
I need a g5, please.
Departing when, sir?
I should be ready
for wheels up in about
Three hours.
Yes sir.
Destination?
I'll call back.
What the hell?
A golf bag? Really?
You think
we can't handle this, jack?
There are a thousand ways
to spin this.
Francis is a terrorist.
You're lunatic fringe, jack.
You know that?
You hear me?
You made sh*t like this
disappear a hundred times.
What, you think we can't?
Well, we can.
We can, jack!
Let me tell you
how this is gonna work.
Before your skin
starts to blister,
You're gonna
smell something.
You're gonna smell
your hair
And your eyebrows
as they begin to burn.
Then your eyes,
they're gonna ooze.
They're gonna run
like broken egg yolks.
I know what you did.
I saw what you did.
You're not...
you...
You are not better
than me, jack!
We are exactly alike!
Take a look
at yourself, jack!
We are exactly alike!
I know who you are!
Excuse me,
sir. Did you say "golf bag"?
In a golf bag
Outside the house.
His name is Doug Calder.
He's the man responsible for the
shoot-Out today on front street.
This is jack Begosian,
And for those of you just
tuning in, you are listening
To the new daytime version
of "the truth."
Today I have
with me, the...
The great honor to have
Francisco Francis,
The founder
of la vida campesina movement,
Who brought to light the atrocities
committed by Clearbec in Ecuador.
Francisco,
the floor is yours.
Thank you
for having me, jack.
The reason that
the Clearbec incident
Is so horrible
is that it exposes
The lengths to which
corporate interests will go
In order
to protect themselves.
Absolutely.
We'd like
to hear your thoughts.
Next caller, please.
Hello, this is jack Begosian.
- You're on the air.
- Hi, jack. This is Jeff.
- Hello, Jeff.
- What's gonna happen to Clearbec now?
Well, Morgan Swinton is
The major shareholder
in Clearbec,
And she has promised
To pave a new moral path
for the company.
Her brother, Bruce Swinton,
has been indicted
For conspiracy
to commit murder.
The guy's already
out on bail.
He's got all the money
in the world.
You know how
the system works, jack.
No client's guilty
until they run out of money.
Well said. Thanks for the call.
You know, jack, I think that the
important thing to realize here
Is that the water deal in
south Africa has been stopped,
Just as it was stopped
in Paraguay,
Just as it should
be stopped everywhere.
We are talking
about a natural resource,
