think about sex a lot,

but this is crazy.

Well, sex and death

are very closely related.

The Greeks called it

Eros and Thanatos,

love and death.

Or sex as a way

of nullifying

thoughts of dying.

What's your deal, gangster,

huh? You actually

been shot five times?

Six.

You really

pull a man's spine out?

lt was an Adam's apple.

You ever get

into a tussle, secretary...

you grab a man by his throat.

Dig it? And then you squeeze.

l guarantee you he will drop.

He will not get up

for quite some time.

Oh, God. lt's really quiet

out there now.

Yeah.

That's what worries me.

We're not gonna make it

till morning.

Marcus Duvall

will not allow it.

We've got eight people

covering six entry points.

lf we work together,

all right,

we will make it.

Look at it this way.

That's me out there.

You think

l'd let you survive

until the morning?

We don't have

a lot of options here.

Well, we got to figure

something.

'Cause l'm not gonna

stay here all night,

waiting to get killed.

lf you use the situation

to try and escape,

it's about me and you...

'cause when this is over,

you're going back to jail.

Relax, Sergeant.

Relax.

This ain't about me

and you. Not yet.

Our sh*t's

on pause, huh?

Yeah. Our sh*t's

on pause.

You saved my ass back there.

Why?

Everyone in here

is my responsibility.

lt's my job.

That's noble. Unfortunately,

l don't share the sentiment.

l see a cop in jeopardy,

he's on his own...

unless it benefits me

to jump in for the save.

Listen. l don't

try to be anything l'm not.

That ain't gonna change.

l don't care what day it is.

You remember that, Sergeant.

Hey. Someone's coming.

Oh, God. lt's Capra, Sarge!

BISHOP:
You know this guy?

JAKE:
He's a cop.

He works here.

They'll execute him.

Capra!

[Shushing]

Yeah. Drive. Drive!

IRIS:
Oh, my God.

He's gonna make it.

BISHOP:
He still has

to get by the sniper.

JAKE:
Come on, Capra!

He's still moving.

They didn't get him yet.

What.... Where are you going?

Come on. Come on.

Come on!

Come on, Capra!

Come on!

What the f*** is going on?

Who's f***ing shooting

at us, Sarge?

Who the f***

are all these people?

What are you

doing here, Capra?

What are you doing here?

lt's New Year's Eve.

l knew you'd be here alone.

l came to have a drink

with lris.

Oh, God. You picked

the wrong night to make

your move, baby, believe me.

You know,

that's really sweet.

That's really sweet, but,

unfortunately, l don't believe

a f***ing word of it.

Put that goddamn weapon down,

you psycho. He works here.

l don't care that

he f***ing works here, man.

He could be a plant.

No, Jasper. Put the gun down,

all right? Let's not

start that again, all right?

He comes here in the guise

of courting that lady.

lt's a f***ing ingenious plan.

They get one of their boys

in here...

and then take us out

one by one by one.

Come on. Tell them.

They shot at him.

Oh, yeah.

All right? They shot at him.

Yeah.

Oh, but they conveniently

f***ing missed, didn't they?

The act is a f***ing charade.

Come on. Tell them.

He's f***ing right, Anna.

lsn't it

a f***ing charade?

Do l have a gun?

Do l have a f***ing gun?

l can't hurt you.

That's not f***ing

good enough, rat-b*tch.

Come on. Just lock him up,

man, so he doesn't

do any damage. Come on.

Come on, Roenick.

Listen to me, man.

We're not locking

this man up.

Not in my precinct, all right?

l vouch for him.

Okay.

Okay, but l'm f***ing sorry...

but your authority

has been super-f***ing-seded.

You understand?

You're not in charge anymore.

Right, Bish? Bish, tell them.

He could be one of them, man,

and so f***ing easily.

You don't think

we see right through you?

Can't f***ing

believe that sh*t.

Comes in here

playing that game,

playing stupid.

You don't think we know?

Right, man? Let's do the math.

Come on. Let's put him away,

man, just play it safe,

you know?

Put it down.

No, no, no. Come on.

Come on, man. Come on.

Just do the math. Come on.

Motherf***er comes in

like that, playing--

[Beck wheezing]

Come here. Sergeant Roenick

is in charge. Understand?

Yes.

Let's go.

Only because l respect you.

But l still say this sh*t

is f***ing illogical bullshit,

all right?

He may not

be who he says he is.

Just mull that sh*t over.

Think it over.

Think it over, man.

lris, look after Capra.

Fill him in

on what's going on.

All right, Capra?

Just be cool, so no one else

here gets spooked.

Everybody else,

back to your positions.

Thank you.

Don't. That was

self-preservation.

The more men we have,

the better chance we stand.

Are you sure

you vouch for this man?

l do.

Come with me.

You know, l hate to admit it,

but Smiley agrees with

what you said back there.

Smiley want a f***ing medal?

Hear me out, man.

Look, we're out of our

shackles for what? The last

time in the next 15, 20 years?

All right, man.

Get to the point.

What do you want?

Listen to me, man.

Look out that window.

That's freedom, baby.

Get what l'm saying?

Look, maybe this New Year's

can bring something different

for us after all.

Beck like Smiley now.

Eight months ago

he loses his team

when a deal goes sour.

Problem with drugs

and alcohol

since the incident.

A burned-out cop.

Only a matter of time

before he drops his guard.

Watch the truck.

They'll eye it as a way out.

What's the word on the AV?

Storm's starting to let up,

so it shouldn't be long now.

Good.

Someone gets inside,

takes off, goes for help.

That's too obvious.

We'd need a distraction.

We also need the keys.

Your cop said

he dropped them in the snow.

ANNA:
l could

hot-wire a car.

l thought

you never committed a crime

in your life?

l haven't.

Oh, yeah.

Just picked up some sh*t

along the way.

Hold on.

How do we know she's not just

gonna drive out of here

and leave us all here to die?

Who the f*** are you,

Miss F***ing Little Skirt?

Shake that skinny ass

in somebody else's face.

Okay, Anna. No offense,

but l'll feel better

if somebody goes with you.

Maybe l should go.

l promise l'll make her

get some help. Scout's honor.

lt's either me or Jasper.

Can't be.

We need your guns.

lt's gotta be--

Me.

Me.

You?

Shoot.

Hey, l'll go. l'll do it.

What? lt's the only thing

that makes sense, right?

Whatever.

Whatever the f*** ever.

Let's just do this. Come on.

Me and the doc.

Fine. Okay.

What?

lt's the right move,

Sergeant. l know that.

All right.

l'm the doctor, right?

Right. You can

handle that?

Yes.

You can?

l don't know.

l don't know.

But l have

to try, okay?

No. No.

Please. l have to go.

l have to do it.

Sh*t!

Hey!

Those two skels

are bugging out, just like

l told you they would.

They torched the bus

for a diversion, l guess.

Come on!

Jesus. They're gonna

get themselves killed.

They're dead already.

We can use this.

Very smart.

They knew we'd expect them

to make for the car.

Freedom, baby. We did it.

Yeah. l told you.

Happy New Year.
