You're kidding, right?

A rubber gun?

No. What?

If I had some bullets

in this thing I'd blow...

Your f***ing head off.

That's nice, tough guy.

You ready for this, cakes?

You know, it'll all

be over real soon.

And then...

Here.

Happily ever after.

Promise?

I promise.

Don't you worry, I'm gonna

figure a way out of this.

She can't hear you, bro.

Just give me the gun.

If you kiss me,

I'm gonna hit you, bro.

Hey, hey!

When I say so, all right?

Channel three.

Yeah, yeah, totally,

channel three. Mm-hm, mm-hm...

Hey, boss?

Just a real quick question...

Uh, you didn't give me a gun.

Mm-hm.

Why don't I get a gun?

Honestly?

Yeah.

Because you're f***ing nuts

and I don't trust you.

This is f***ing bullshit.

All right, good talk.

Whoo!

Whoa!

Get in there, b*tch!

Oh, sh*t.

Shut it off!

Shut it off!

Shut it off!

And you, you didn't think there

was gonna be a f***ing alarm?

Don't do anything

until I tell you to.

F***ing nimrod!

Get down!

Get down, now!

What's this?

- Whoo!

- Hey, stop!

Ow!

Stay on the ground!

Hey, is the house empty?

Not now, but yes, it was.

Motherf***er, don't make me

hurt you!

Yes, the house is empty,

I live alone, all right...

Ask your f***ing questions

better!

Get down, down!

Everybody, quiet.

Now, we know there's somebody

very important to you...

Who is under that hood right

there, Clarence Duffield.

How do you know who I am?

I'll ask the questions...

Or I can shoot her in the head.

No, no, okay, okay!

Okay, so, what we need is

$50,000 in the next hour.

Do you think you could

make that happen?

50? I thought we said...

Ow, sh*t, can you not

do that so hard?

Motherf***er, what?

Ow, f***, my ear!

Will you, uh, take her away?

Up! Get up now! Move.

Man, what the f*** is this?

Don't worry about him.

I'm the one paying you,

you know?

B*tch, I don't work for you.

Will you do something

about this, please?

Would you please go upstairs

and just trash stuff?

Wait, why does

he have to do that?

You want it to seem

authentic, don't you?

I guess, but...

There's no buts.

We either do this for real

or we don't do it at all.

Hm?

No, I...

You got a Vicodan or oxy,

by any chance?

Uh, I don't think so.

Sorry.

No worries.

Whoo!

What's with the voice?

Anonymity thing.

Nice touch.

Thank you.

So, where's the money?

You'll get your money.

First I need time with her.

Really?

Yeah, that's the only

way this is gonna work.

Well, okay.

Make it count.

Shall we?

Yeah.

Come on.

Help! Help!

Hey, it's me, it's me!

Who are you!

It's me, it's Clarence!

Oh, you don't know me,

I'm, uh... hi, I'm Clarence.

But I'm not one of them.

See?

What's going on?

That's complicated.

Where are we?

Uh, we're at my house.

You live here?

Uh, yeah.

What do they want from us?

Uh... it's not you they want...

That is actually not true...

It is true.

It's more of what they want

from me, for you.

Doesn't really look that way.

See... uh...

They brought you here

because I...

Because I...

Because I...

Because why?

Because they knew i...

We need to have a chat!

No, stop, stop, please!

Wait! Stop, stop, no!

All right, what the hell

are you doing?

You always gotta leave them

wanting more.

What?

You were about to re-enact the

goddamn notebook in there.

No, I wasn't, and you don't have

to be so f***ing rough.

Do you want this to feel

real for her or not? Hm?

It's your money, man.

It is your move.

I am just here to help you.

Okay.

You gonna let me do my job?

Yeah, okay.

Please?

Yes.

Thank you.

Let's just take a beat

and just relax, all right?

And we'll go back out there

and we'll get into it.

This is a very nice room.

Hey, what was he saying?

You really wanna know?

Well... girl to girl, we have

on good authority...

That your friend Clarence will

pay big bucks for your safety.

Why would he do that?

I don't even know him.

Because he's in love with you.

Kind of romantic, if you ask me.

Man hey, post one to post two...

I'm heading out to do my rounds.

Will you cover the south

side gate for me?

Um... which gate is that,

again?

Man

south side. This post two?

Hey bro, can I get a better

name than post two?

That's a total b*tch name.

Man who is this?

Will you quit touching sh*t?

Hey, not all of us have our

boyfriends...

Doing the heavy lifting.

F*** you!

F*** you!

She's gone!

Sh*t!

Sh*t!

Where the f*** did she go!

I don't f***ing know!

F***ing kidding me!

Nicki, we got a runner.

Eyes open, she might be headed

your way.

She's in the elevator.

Whoa!

Whoa, whoa, it's okay,

it's me, it's me!

Thank god.

Follow me, follow me!

Come on, come on, hurry up!

Let's go!

Where do you think you're going?

Hey, hey! Please, can we go?

Huh?

This way!

No, this way!

Sh*t, f***, f***!

Sh*t.

Clarence

famous Spanish painter...

Pablo Picasso once said,

"I don't believe in accidents..

"There are only

encounters in history...

"There are no accidents."

Oh, sh*t.

You okay, bro?

Agh... god!

What the f*** was that?

Get your ass in here, dude!

Whoa, what the f***

happened here!

Whoa, whoa, whoa!

Hey, wait!

Let her go.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, hey!

Don't do anything stupid.

Do it, baby! Pull the

trigger! I want you to!

You want your money,

you let her go.

What's wrong? Agh!

I'll be right back.

Oh, no, no...

Don't move!

What's going on!

Baby, baby.

Baby, it's okay, it's okay.

Relax, it's okay.

Everything's okay,

it's just a little...

He's dead, he's dead!

I know... I know he's dead and

I'm really sad about it, too...

I'm super sad.

What the hell happened?

Freak accident.

This an...

Babe... babe, i...

I wanna go home, I can't

do this anymore.

I'm sorry, I can't do this

anymore.

No, no, listen, you can do this.

We can do this together.

Because remember tonight,

it changes everything...

And if we can make it through

tonight, then come tomorrow...

We can have everything

that we ever wanted.

Remember, happily ever after?

We can't let one little

accident change that, right?

Yeah!

No, you can do it.

Put that on.

Let me hold that for just a

second while you put on your...

Yeah.

All right, there you go.

There you go.

This... this mask was a really

good choice.

You look great, really.

Come on, atta' girl!

Thank you.

Go for it!

Atta' girl!

Come on!

Clarence! What the...

I'll take care of everything.

Move! Faster!

I promise.

What the f*** is this, huh?

Was this part of the deal?

How was I supposed to know

this was gonna happen?

What am I supposed to do

with this?

See, that's funny, because

I distinctly remember...

You saying that no one

would get hurt.

Are you suggesting

that this is my fault.

Okay, no, no, I can fix this.

I can fix this.

Yeah, you're gonna fix this.

How are you gonna fix this?

I'll pay you more money.

Guess that changes the splits.

Step into my office.

Talk to me.

I'll pay you $30,000.

You're suggesting that

this dead young man's life...

Is only worth a $5,000 premium?
