Watch him while I

talk to Michael.

You know, there's gonna be

a decision made tonight.

Something I was hoping

would never have to be made.

But here we are.

You can spend your entire life

building something,

protecting it,

and in one moment...

Dad, look, I-

I didn't ask you to speak.

I have protected you

all your life.

I have given you everything

you ever wanted.

Michael, I kept you

away from all of this.

Do you have any idea

what you've started tonight?

Do you?

Now, I wanna know every single

thing that happened tonight.

Every word of it.

Everything.

What is it, Yuri?

I have to see Alex. It's

really important, trust me.

You know he doesn't like

to be bothered.

This is your time, Yuri.

We will control the city.

I've been trying to call you.

Really? Eh, probably service.

It's okay, though.

It's okay, calm down.

Calm down. Everything is cool, okay?

I'm here now.

I had no idea she was married

or who this guy was.

He just showed up at the club and

started slapping her around.

So, what did you do?

I did what you taught me to do.

Protected her.

Dad, I had no other choice.

Michael, how could you not know?

Are you blind?

She had her own place.

How was I suppose to know?

This guy was Russian mob. Do you have any

f***ing idea what they're gonna expect?

He pulled a gun on me.

He pulled a gun on me, Dad.

Where did you meet her anyway?

At a club, you know, West Side.

We were there for a few hours

having drinks and...

That's where I met her.

Miguel had seemed like

he had been there before.

This guy, Vincent,

who runs the place,

treated me like a VIP.

So, what did she tell you about herself?

What was her story?

She said she was

in this abusive relationship,

and she wanted out.

She seemed very happy

with me, Dad.

I love her.

Love?

Be very sure of who you love.

Very sure.

Artur.

I want you to talk to him

and find out if he knows where

the girl is and bring her here.

Okay, he's pretty shaken up.

Does he have anything

to do with this?

I don't know yet, not sure.

And, uh, make sure there's a couple

guys outside my house, okay?

Already taken care of, Vaz.

And if Alexander

or any of his guys call,

buy us time.

That's what we need right now.

Hey, Miguel.

How's it going?

Pretty shitty.

So, what happened tonight?

I- I don't know, man.

I mean, this dude came

out of nowhere, you know?

Dude?

Have you seen him before?

- No.

I'm still trying to figure out

what the hell happened.

I'll tell you what,

why don't we go for a drive.

Get some fresh air.

Drive?

- Yeah.

To where?

I wanna go sightseeing.

Get the f*** up.

I did exactly as you told me.

I got close to him,

I found out about his father's business.

That was our deal.

And um, you did great.

You didn't tell me anyone

was gonna get hurt, Vincent.

Yeah, well that happens

sometimes, Natasha.

I mean what can you do? Huh?

I want my money.

I wanna leave now.

I got your money.

- I'm scared.

Okay? It's in the car.

$250.000 as promised,

just relax.

Hey.

- I can go anywhere?

Anywhere you want.

All right? The boys are

outside in the car.

They'll take you straight

to the airport. Done.

Vincent, please.

Don't hurt Michael.

I was just so scared.

And I couldn't get a hold of

you, and then, you just show up.

Hello!

It's okay! Get in.

He's a friend.

- Hurry!

Come on, go!

Hang on!

Go, go, go!

Shut up! Both of you!

Go, go!

- Sh*t!

Floor it!

- Turn!

Floor it, you piece of sh*t!

Right there in the...

Turn, turn, you piece of sh*t!

Oh, sh*t!

Ah!

Get in the car! Get in the car!

Go, go, go, go.

What the f*** was that?

Oh, he shot me! Come on!

I suck at this game.

I'll be right back. I'm gonna

go get something to drink.

Grab me some Pepsi, will you?

Make it two.

Hey, Mom, where's Christina?

She should be on her way back.

She's not answering her phone.

Then how come you don't track her

down on her cellphone's GPS?

David, honey, I don't

even know what that is.

Come here, I'll show you.

How many times have I told you

not to slam the front door?

Sorry, Mom.

You're not gonna believe

what an amazing night I had.

Hey, where's Dad?

Work.

You're busted.

Okay.

Tell me about

your amazing night.

Mom, he is so cute.

Christina, listen.

I know you like this boy,

but we don't know him.

Who is he?

He's a really nice guy.

We need to know who he is. We

need to know who his parents are.

His parents?

- Yes.

Seriously, Mom?

- Yes.

You guys are so old-fashioned.

We have traditions.

Okay, Mom.

What's to know, huh?

Weren't you my age

when you met Dad? Yes.

But, before I went out

with your father,

he had to meet my family first.

Get my dad's approval.

Look, you know how much

I love you and Daddy,

but I really like this guy.

And?

And... I finally want

you and Dad to meet him.

But, he's intimidated by Dad.

Christina, look.

If he has nothing to hide, there's

nothing to be intimidated by.

Come on, Mom.

You know how Dad can be.

It's only because he loves you.

Hm?

Christina,

you better be right

about this boy,

because your dad

is a hard man to convince.

I know.

Well... I was hoping you would

help me out with that.

Okay. Okay!

I'm sorry for your loss.

Boris was a pretty good friend

of mine.

Where is Alexander?

I want to speak with him.

Yeah, he's...

He's resting right now.

Who... who did this?

Why?

It was the son

of a very powerful man,

named Vazgen.

Why?

I don't know.

Boris was my only son.

I know what he was,

but he was still my son.

I understand.

Kolya, look in my eyes.

They gonna pay for this.

I promise.

You understand?

I promise.

Dima.

- Yeah?

Make sure Nikolai Ivanovich

get home safe.

So, you think we can

trust Vincent to finish this?

Sure.

I've got Tony's word on it.

I don't trust

that f***in' gumbah.

What is to trust?

We got rid of Alexander.

Vincent does the rest.

He get too powerful, he may

want to move against us later.

If he ever wants to f*** us,

I will cut his head off,

personally.

This is a new way

of doing business, my way.

Have you reached out

to Vazgen's people?

You know, you're right.

Let me call Artur.

I'm gonna call him right now.

You know that I love you

unconditionally,

but I can't protect you

if you don't tell me the truth.

Artur's on his way back

with Natasha.

Why?

Because I have to get

the whole story.

What, you don't believe me?

I believe you, son,

but I have to know

what we're up against.

You know, these people,

they can be the most

reasonable men,

but they can also be the most

vicious animals you've ever met.

We have to play our cards right.

Vazgen!

What happened?

What happened to you?

Tell me, tell me what happened.

Oh, Michael...

It was Vincent...

Baby, tell me.

Vincent what?

Natasha.

Baby!

Baby, wake up.

Dad!

Wake up.

Somebody help!

Baby, wake up! Natasha!

This guy, Vincent,

was at the girl's place.

Something's going on

we don't know about.

Where's the Miguel kid?
