to make me disappear.

Meaning?

Lisa is dead.

I said Lisa is dead.

They probably killed her

because they thought it was me.

She shouldn't have come.

Well, Lester said that

it was dangerous

to leave her in Paris and-

Lester's full of sh*t!

I'm out of here.

Where are you going?

You have been identified by now.

There is a warrant out for your arrest.

You have no credit card.

You can't use a passport.

You don't know anyone here.

Lester can't help you.

That's the last time you'll see him.

Did you love Miles?

No.

Yes. I loved him once very much.

But I just turned him on, that's all.

Isn't that the same thing?

That's what guys say

because it suits them.

But no, it's not the same thing.

I don't think so.

Now you're free.

Free of what?

I'm not free of anything.

I destroyed my life.

You have money.

Oh, f*** the money!

You and Lester can keep it.

You earned it.

Leave me the f*** alone. Please?

I want to go back to Paris

and hand myself over to the police.

It's Lester. Look, he's on the way.

I told him you were here.

You told me he was supposed

to be here already.

Where is Lester?

What can I do?

I don't know!

What the f*** can you do?

What are we doing in this stupid place?

I want to get going.

Well, he can call me

on Lisa's cell phone.

I have it.

Thank you.

Want a hit?

I don't want any!

Okay.

Stay. We'll hide you for a few days.

After that, you'll be on your own.

Right now, it's too dangerous.

I need a passport. That's all.

We'll find you one.

You need cash too.

I don't want to stay at your place.

What the f***

am I gonna do at your place?

Where do you want to go?

A hotel.

A hotel will ask you for your ID.

Wait for Lester.

If you need a hotel room,

he'll find you a hotel room.

What did you put in my drink, b*tch?

Nothing.

You just got off a plane. You're tired.

What was in my drink?

Nothing, I swear!

I should f***ing kill you.

Just sleep for a while.

You'll feel better.

You feel sleepy, right?

You can't even keep your eyes open.

You're sleepy.

Right?

Don't do anything stupid.

Give me...

your gun.

You're going to sleep.

How could you even think for a minute

that I'd let you see Lester again?

You're awake. You want a coffee?

No, thanks. I'm being careful.

I won't insist.

At least sit down.

I should've picked you up earlier.

I promised I would,

but things screwed up.

I have a new passport

and some money for you, though.

And a new identity.

From who?

You're American with an Italian background.

Your name is Flavia Trabasani.

Where do I go with this?

To Shanghai.

you have a six month visa.

What exactly do I do in Shanghai?

I have an old friend.

I used to work with him now and then.

I don't anymore.

But if you want, he has a job for you.

It's a tough city,

but anything's possible there.

It's a good place to start a new life.

What's your job?

I, uh, get clothes made.

They're pretty cheap, but young people

in the West love them.

You wouldn't know the brand.

We sell them bulk to chains

that distribute under their own labels.

Why are you helping me?

It's a favor for a friend.

What does your friend want?

He wants you to disappear,

at least for a little while.

Does that plan suit you?

Suits me fine.

Sue told me you don't

want the money owed to you.

I don't want to touch it.

This will get you to Shanghai.

When you get there,

you'll be taken care of.

It's best if you leave as soon as possible.

Your ticket's open.

You can still make the 12:00 flight.

Good luck, and forget we ever met.

I'm heading back. A shipment came in.

I need the papers.

On the desk.

Did you speak to Kay?

Sandra is on her way to Shanghai.

I honored my side. She's alive.

Lisa died instead.

Did you get the money?

I'll have it later.

I'm moving to Beijing.

I'll buy out your shares of the club.

Give me six months.

Will you send for Sandra?

Not right away.

Too dangerous.

For her or for you?

She needs to keep a low profile.

Then she can come.

You used her.

You betrayed her.

She doesn't love you anymore.

She won't come.

And one day she'll seek revenge.

If you step out that door...

you'll never see me again.

Okay, follow him.

Don't lose him, okay?

Go, go, go, go.
