What's wrong with him?
a lot.
- Hello.
- Hello.
- Hi. I'm, I'm Vince Larkin.
- I'm Tricia Poe.
Nice to meet ya.
This, this must be Casey.
- Hello, Casey. - Hello, Vince
Larkin. - Nice to meet ya.
So how are you doin'?
I'm sorry. That's, uh- Scratch
that. Dumb question. You-
You wanted to see your husband today,
and then this whole thing happened.
Maybe you could just tell me
exactly what's going on here and-
We're doing everything we can
to get the plane down.
Actually, that's w-why I wanted
to talk to you.
Hey, wait. W-Where'd you get
the rims, man?
My personal sh*t's
down in the belly.
- Hey, those are my shades.
- They're mine now, sister.
Men!
It seems that your husband,
Cameron...
had an opportunity to get off
the plane and he didn't do it.
And I was hoping
you could...
maybe help me
figure out why.
That would make two of us.
I don't know.
I mean, it's possible,
it's, it's not uncommon...
that some parolees actually fear
their release date.
A certain degree of institutionalization
sets in. Fear of coming home.
- Fear of living in society. Any of this make sense?
- No, no.
That's not Cameron. I mean, if you, if
you knew him, if you read his letters...
or if you talked to him
on the phone, you'd know that-
I mean, he's been waitin' for this day
for eight years. He's not gonna-
I mean, look, he's got this little,
this little girl to come home to.
Wouldn't you...
do the same thing?
There'd have to be a pretty strong
reason to keep me on that plane.
Well, knowing Cameron,
I'm sure there is a good reason.
Uh, maybe, if you, if you do
see him or if you talk to him...
maybe you could just tell him
to come home, all right?
Be kinda nice
to have him around.
You got it.
Vince, line one.
This body fell out
of the sky.
Vince Larkin? This is Ted Grasso,
Fresno Police Department.
We got a problem here
with a corpse.
Yeah, it fell out
of the sky.
I don't think
he's an astronaut.
Then what's this got
to do with me?
It's got your name
written all over it.
Last transponder tag
was in Arizona.
Body falls here,
in Fresno.
Lerner Airfield.
They're turning around.
- They're coming back. Can
you get me Chief- - Devers.
Please. Thank you.
- Vince?
- Turn around.
Plane's headed to Lerner Airfield. It's
a small strip about 100 miles from here.
Horseshit! We're tailing the
transponder tag into Arizona.
Listen to me.
A body fell from the sky.
It had a note on it.
We got 'em vectored
at 12:
00 and 30 miles.- Vince, please, son. We're right on his tail.
- Just listen to me!
It was to me!
The note on the body was to me!
- You're chasing the wrong-
- Aw, shut up.
Hello?
Guys, guys! I need a plane
or a chopper now!
Hey, you and me both.
I'm all out.
I've got to get to Lerner Airfield
and I've got about 50 minutes.
Got a fast car,
you can drive it.
Larkin. Vince Larkin.
I'm with the Marshal Services.
Send whatever you got. Sheriff,
state trooper, national guard.
Hold on one minute.
Your men should proceed
with extreme caution.
It's only a matter of time
before they find the weapons hold.
Larkin. Vince Larkin.
Marshal Services.
How do you think
I got the number?
"... appears to the United States
Parole Commission that-"
Poe.
Man! Oh, yeah!
Put the bunny
back in the box.
I knew you was a punk.
And I was right.
You been playin' us
all along.
You a free man.
I said, put the bunny...
back in the box.
Die, punk!
Why couldn't you put the bunny
back in the box?
Next, folks, below and to your left,
you'll see the vertical Renoir Cliffs.
We're seconds away from
establishing visual contact.
Holy sh*t!
Abort! Abort! Abort!
If that aircraft's carrying
"Uncle Bob's Scenic Tours. "
Sh*t!
Three hundred f***in' miles
to apprehend Ma and Pa f***ing Kettle!
We need to get
to Lerner Airfield now!
Get me Vince Larkin.
Two went down,
one came up.
- Wasn't my fault.
- Well, you don't have to tell me.
Most murders are crimes
of necessity rather than desire.
But the great ones,
Dahmer, Gacy, Bundy...
- they did it because it excited them.
- Don't you-
I got nothing in common
with them, with you.
Don't you talk to me!
They were insane.
Now you're talking
semantics.
What if I told you insane was working 50
hours a week in some office for 50 years...
at the end of which
they tell you to piss off?
Ending up
in some retirement village...
hoping to die before suffering the indignity
of trying to make it to the toilet on time.
Wouldn't you consider that
to be insane?
Murdering 30 people,
semantics or not, is insane!
One girl...
I drove through three states
wearing her head as a hat.
It's my daughter's birthday
today.
So please feel free
not to share everything with me.
All right, you damn peckerwoods,
crack the knuckles and hit the crystals.
We're putting this baby
down in a sandbox.
Lerner Tower,
do you copy?
Lerner Tower,
are you there, Phil?
Come on, answer me.
I am landing.
Oh, my God.
Look out!
Lerner Airfield.
I'm so glad to be here.
Thank you
for choosing Con Air.
- Where's the plane, Francisco?
- I don't know. Have patience.
The last guy who told me to have patience?
I burned him down, and bagged his ashes.
Cyrus, it'll be here.
Hey, you stupid sons of b*tches!
Jesus Christ!
I hope he likes sand.
- Muchacho, run and check out the tower.
Have a look-see, yeah? - All right.
You come with us.
- Let's go. We're gettin' off. -
Boss, I can't. - Yes, you can. Come on!
- You shouldn't move him.
- I'm getting him off of this plane.
You, you can't move him. He's
too far along. He could go into shock.
She's right, Poe.
Go on, man.
I'm not leaving
without you, or you.
Ah, listen. Here we go.
Ranger boy.
- Right.
- Goddamn it, Poe!
Man, it's time to fight,
f*** or hit the fence.
- I suggest you hit the fence.
- He's right.
Just go.
All right. Here's how it's gonna play.
I'm gonna get you that needle.
Whatever you say, man.
Just do what you gotta do.
F***.
All right, you just hang on.
Don't die on me.
Swing low, sweet chariot
Comin' for
to carry me home
Oh, no. What the hell
you think you're doin'?
- It's time to off the pigs.
- You can't do that.
- Tell me why.
- They're hostages. We need 'em.
- But why the f*** you care?
- Hey, man, come on.
I can't think of a thing
I'd like better...
than to put a bullet in the brain base
of every one of these f***ers!
But the fact of the matter is,
how well you know this Cindino?
I mean, I don't know him that
well myself. Just what I read.
Like how he firebombed that senator's
yacht with two of his own cousins on board.
So what's your point?
Why would he sweat about killing some
hired guns once they'd served his purpose?
- Now think about that.
- What exactly are we discussing here?
Poe don't want me
to off the pigs.
Well, it's not difficult to surmise how
Nathan here feels about killing guards.
