El Gringo Page #6
- It was not out of the blue...
- Why are you saying it now?
- I said it because...
- I know why.
Because it's important...
You're saying that now
because you wanna f*** me.
I'm warning you...
taking me over to your place
might me dangerous.
Why?
Oh, why?
Because we met in a shrink's
waiting room, baby.
So, we can be the Xanax couple.
Mr. and Mrs. Rivotril.
What do you say?
I'm in.
Yeah.
You wanna be that?
A couple of loonies
around town?
- F***!
- Watch out!
You suffered a big blow
to your head.
You need to stay
in the hospital overnight.
Son...
- Julia...
- Calm down, son.
- Julia...
- Calm down.
Two people were killed.
A seven-year old boy
and his mother.
You'll have
to be strong now, son.
Justice in Brazil is peculiar.
People kill and steal...
but there's always a way
to escape imprisonment.
The sentence is commuted
for good behavior...
or you only serve
one third of it.
Sometimes you don't
even go to jail.
That was my case.
It was this friendly justice
that let me walk free...
with a little help
from deputy Jader.
Besides, in my case the judge
didn't want any problems.
He had other interests.
Boats.
So?
You didn't like my teddy bear.
I loved this bear.
I think he's cute.
But I want this bear now...
What?
Say it.
What do you wanna say?
- You didn't miss me, did you?
- I really missed you.
No, you didn't. You were very
well looked after. By two men.
- Yeah, but I was thinking of you.
- I know.
Hey, it's true!
Why did you have to leave?
Well, let's go over the plan
one more time. You must...
No, I don't want to go over
this plan again. I know all about it.
- Are you sure?
- Absolutely.
THE PLAN:
Ok, let's go over it.
First I plant one ideas
on Maicon's head.
You must be cold...
with respect to this case.
If you messed up and lost the money,
it's your problem, man!
F*** it!
I collect all the evidence...
and hand it to Rodrigues
at the Prosecutor's Office.
He'll love it.
That's when my situation
there will tighten up
and so will Maicon's, consequently.
At the Prosecutor's Office
there's no more way.
- They're watching me.
- I'll need to transfer you.
- Then enters Deputy Jader.
- Two million.
- Reais?
- Dollars.
When the deal is set,
you find someone to get the money.
Ok. I'll do my tricks.
Then what?
Well, with the money
in our hands...
I'll find a way to link
Henrique to the robbery.
I can plant something
in his office.
I don't know,
I 'II think of something.
We take the money and disappear!
Freedom, man...
I'm worried, you know.
About what?
I fear what Maicon
might do to Henrique.
I like him,
he's not a bad person.
Nobody is bad.
Henrique is not bad.
Is Maicon bad?
Is the deputy bad?
Nobody is bad. People just
go the wrong way sometimes.
That's why I believe in punishment...
in real justice.
- What?
- Punishment is the way...
What do you mean?
Are you crazy?
What are you talking about?
You're not God.
You're doing this
for the money, baby.
At least I am.
I don't want this life.
I want to be happy.
I want to be free,
I want to love you.
Don't you agree?
Why are you so quiet?
Why are you so quiet?
Why are you quiet?
You tell me now.
Are you hiding
something from me?
- Of course not.
- I knew it.
Little kitten, come on.
Do you swear?
I do. I do.
Do you swear that
we'll get this money and leave...
...and be happy, you and I?
You and I
and this little being right here.
I had forgotten.
Really?
I can't be smoking!
I must stop this sh*t.
Can I tell you something?
You can.
I want a girl.
I really do.
Answer... Answer...
Aren't you going to answer?
Who is it?
It's the bank manager,
I won't answer the phone.
Answer it, girl...
It's them.
Let's go!
Let's go!
Julia, stop!
Stop!
Stop right there!
Not one more step!
Drop that suitcase
and get out of there!
He's armed! He's armed!
What's up?
Here.
Hi.
Hi.
This is very fragile.
You must place it in something
that he always carries with him.
Do you think you can?
Of course.
Who is this f***?
Down!
- Maicon, Bola was shot!
- Julia!
Edgar!
- Come with me, Julia.
- You're gonna die, Menudinho!
F***ing Stop right there!
Oh, you punk!
Come on!
Stop! Stop!
Get out of the car!
- Get out!
- Get him!
Get down! F***!
Stop! Stop!
Come on, deputy!
Go, go, go!
What's that noise?
What's that noise?
- There's a bomb in the suitcase.
- What?
What the f*** was that?
- Put the suitcase up here.
- I'm not touching it!
- Put it up here!
- I'm not touching it!
Or else it will explode,
it has a proximity sensor!
What?
If the deputy gets near it,
the suitcase will explode.
Put the suitcase up here!
Your Honor!
That's your million dollars right here!
See you there!
This is an ungrateful world.
I saved this a**hole,
and this is how he thanks me!
He's getting near us!
He's getting near us!
- I'm not on his tail.
- Faster, faster!
The bus!
Watch out! Stop!
Where did you
f***ing learn to drive?
- The f***ing bus got in the way!
- Drive! Drive!
Where did he go?
F***ing punk!
- Over there! That's his car!
- That's my suitcase!
- That's my money!
- He must've run.
Where is the prick?
Where is the prick?
Get you suitcase
and let's beat it!
My money... My Money.
What? A f*ggot?
No, never! He's a real man!
It's a God's man!
It's my hero!
It's amazing his capacity,
it's marvelous!
Exemplary citizen!
It's terrific! He's a champion,
a total champion.
Call me, Edgar.
Got my number?
We have confirmed that
the man killed in the explosion...
this morning
in Baixada do Glicrio
Jader Kerteis.
Holy crap! Holy crap!
Are you aware
that we are f***ed?
How could you place a bomb there
and not tell me?
And I know this Maicon,
he is crazy!
He'll go to the end of the world
to get his money!
He'll do anything to get his
money. You know that, don't you?
He knows who I am.
- Give me the cell phone.
- I don't have it.
- Where is it?
- In my pants.
- Dad?
- Hi, son.
I need to talk to you now.
What's going on?
Where are you?
- Is the restaurant full?
- More or less.
- Walter didn't come to work.
- Don't leave there.
Don't leave, no matter what!
I'm coming over.
Bye.
I'm going to the restaurant.
I can't leave my father alone.
- You want me to go with you?
- No, you stay.
- Are you sure?
- You stay here.
- Will you be careful?
- Stay here.
I'll be back soon.
Dad?
- What happened, Edgar?
- Come with me.
- Why? What happened?
- I'll explain on the way.
Explain what?
Something happened to Walter?
- Is that why he didn't come?
- Yes and no...
- What do you mean?
- I'll explain.
Explain what?
What's going on, Edgar?
- What happened?
- We can go.
Dad.
Shut it.
A presidential suite, son?
Julia?
My son, where did you
get the money for this?
