Do me a favor, can you please

send me the park ranger?

He's not here.

We gotta get out of here. Now.

I ain't going nowhere.

Mister Sanderson,

this has nothing to do with you.

These fellas want a bite.

I'll give 'em a mouthful!

Morris, cover the back.

Nobody gets out.

Piss off my land!

This guy's kinda cranky.

Hey, you people inside, I hate guns.

They are very bad

for the environment.

However, I'm not stupid.

Gentlemen. A little help.

Get down!

I get hikers here from time to time,

trying to run me outta my home.

Hikers? You seriously think

those are hikers?!

Sir! We gotta leave this house.

We're sitting ducks here

and you know it.

Take that.

What, am I invisible?

Why him and not me?

I don't know you.

I do know fellas like those a**holes.

Couple shots around their feet,

they'll run off like squealing pigs.

- You'll see.

- I don't think you understand...

the situation that we're in right now.

We appreciate your help,

but for the last time,

this doesn't seem...

Give us the ranger...

and we'll go away like a bad dream

you won't remember in the morning.

Fellas, I don't know what's gone

on between the two of you.

You gotta get past it.

Old saying goes, Hang together,

or hang separately.

A knife? What the f***

am I gonna do with a knife?

Man can do a lot with a knife.

That's how much I trust you.

Now just stay low.

You're gonna have to fall back

before they get us surrounded.

Fine by me.

No. Not fine. You're coming with us.

I've got my ways

of getting through this. Just go.

You boys get outta here.

Go out the back.

Head east. Oh, hell, Henry,

you know the route.

No!

Go before I shoot you myself.

This ain't a negotiation.

You got the rest of your life

to be a hero.

I just got this one time.

I brought this to you.

You stay, I stay.

Well... okay then.

I guess that settles it.

No!

He is gone. He's gone.

And I'll be happy to let

you go with him,

but I need you to get off this island.

You mean sometimes,

you have to leave a guy in trouble?

Do you have any more shells?

I didn't think I would need any.

Well, that's just perfect.

Like the old guy said,

"A man can do a lot with a knife."

They're gone.

Morris, come in.

I'm hit. They are gone.

- You're hit where?

- Shoulder.

Use the other one. Move your ass.

Hey. Where did they go?

Kiss my geriatric ass!

Are you sure about that?

Wait, wait, wait, wait!

Stand him up.

Organic. Good man.

When I was a little boy

at my grandmama's place,

she had a lovely goose.

I named her Edith,

after the French singer Edith Piaf.

I truly loved that goose.

Everybody thought it was funny.

Then one night

when we were at dinner,

my grandmama said to me,

"Edith tastes good, no?"

I ran out of that table,

I puke up, I cry like a child.

Ever since, I became a vegan.

I'm telling you, I had to kill her.

We're losing time. I need my diver.

My patience is losing weight...

No, no, that's why they say, they say,

I'm getting real pissed.

Let's go.

We've gotta get to the other

side of the island, where your boat is.

Yeah, I kind of lied about that.

I paid a guy to bring me here.

He's supposed to come back

in the morning.

You got a plan B?

You hide till morning

and make it through the night.

And you want me to hide?

What are you gonna do?

I'm gonna lead them away

from here.

Right now, they track one of us,

they catch both of us.

I'm gonna take the fight

to this maniac.

- With what?

- Whatever I got.

All we got is this.

I got some matches,

a spool of fishing line

and some rope.

Well, that'll scare the sh*t out of 'em.

Look, man,

I came prepared for one night.

I didn't come prepared for war.

Yeah, well, this war came to us.

Listen, if we both survive this,

let's talk, okay?

Your brother was a wonderful soldier.

He had to be in Special Forces.

Always had to be the first man

through the door.

I wonder what

or who made him that way, huh?

Always pushing.

Maybe you think about that, too.

I'll bet you do.

Not a day goes by I don't wish

it wasn't me instead of him.

Not a day.

I'm gonna be needing this.

Gentlemen, I'll put it simply.

Henry, I know you.

Henry, I know a lot about you.

I also know you are trained

in deep sea rescue and retrieval.

Which makes you worth a lot to me.

Now, if you don't help me

to get what I came for...

I will have to go after your family

and kill them, one by one.

And I will start with your son first.

Henry, please,

it's your final chance.

I take it by your silence

that you've made the wrong decision.

All right, it's time to hunt.

Let's go.

F*** me.

You!

I thought you wanted the ranger dead.

I did.

What changed?

My mind.

F***, help.

Come on!

Pass the f*** out!

Come on!

Pass out! Pass the f*** out!

Hey.

Hey. Come on. Wake up.

You can't die yet.

I won't get a chance to kill you.

Yeah, that'd be a shame.

Look what your friend dropped.

Look, man,

I've got a lot of questions to ask.

Well, I've got answers.

Maybe even some you don't want.

But I'll always tell you the truth.

Let's get outta here.

I located a canoe in case you

don't feel like swimming.

I'll do you one better.

Aw, f***. No, no, no!

Has the Ranger been captured,

yes or no?

You're so f***ed.

By my count,

that's three of you down so far.

F*** off.

Okay, let's go.

No, no.

We gotta see what's what.

- How many of you are left?

- Eat a dick.

You know, when I was in the yard,

when we wanted somebody to talk,

we'd carve one of the eyes out.

Though I notice you've

got two of 'em.

You wouldn't.

- You've got three seconds.

- You gotta stop him!

Oh, yeah,

he's really gonna listen to me.

- One...

- Okay! Okay, okay.

Xander. His name is Xander.

He wants you to make a dive.

- For the drugs.

- Told you it was drugs.

- Don't brag.

- You a**holes, you killed our diver.

Xander knew,

he knew you were trained.

So when you killed Eto,

we needed you to make the dive.

How did he know that I could dive?

He knows things.

The drugs are in the lake?

It's a shipment of heroin.

- It went down in one of the lakes.

- How many of you are left?

- Just Xander.

- Just one guy?

- Yeah.

- Good. Knock him out.

- Let's get the hell out of Dodge.

- Let's go.

Leaving so soon, Mister Taylor?

Yoo-hoo.

Over here.

I'll make this simple.

Half a million for ten minutes of work.

You have no one left.

We know that you're the last one

standing on your side of the equation.

Your best bet is to get back

on your boat

and travel on out of here.

If you leave now

without hurting anybody else,

I'll let the police handle you.

If you don't, I'll come for you myself.

Trust me, you'd prefer the police.

Bring that fire!

I like this side of you, Henry.

I know what you want,

and I'm not operating any dive.

You've lost your mind.

You've left nothing but bodies

behind you tonight.

Then you'll want to listen closely...

when I tell you I have someone

you want to keep safe.

There's somebody else on this island?
