Is there any initiaI information?

Two of the cuIprits were shot.

The other two

are undoubtedIy Lisa Herzog

This dragnet is the biggest

operation the eastern states

have ever seen.

We can prove theses women

are members of a terrorist group.

-Terrorists?

-HeaviIy armed. . .

What's up? Come on !

It was that guy.

What?

Since we met him everything's

going wrong:

My car's gone. Cops everywhere.

And we owe him money!

-And in there?

-The vauIt.

Sometimes I wonder

if we'II ever get there.

And aIso where.

You know what I. . . ?

Everything ok?

-Jung!

-Yes.

Everything ok? What's up?
