- You don't have to do this!

- Shut the f*** up!

- You got 'em?

- Please, Mr. Cox...

You got 'em?

They on the phone?

Cox, what are you doing, man?

I think you need to see this.

...bus 657 hostage situation

where we have one of the

hijackers apparently on the line,

ready to speak with us.

Go ahead, live on the air.

Tell the cops to back off!

I'll kill this motherf***er!

I'm gonna kill him

and everybody

on this goddamn bus!

He's not going

to kill a hostage on live TV.

Prepare to board the bus.

- Sir?

- Do it!

Please, don't.

Please.

- Shut up, shut up.

- Come on, man. Please.

- Cox...

- Tell the cops to back off!

- Cox...

- Shut the f*** up.

Cox, we're not going

to play it this way.

Cox, we can't do this.

You can't kill him!

- Please, please.

- Shut the f*** up!

Don't shoot me.

- You got a clear shot?

- Negative, sir.

- This death is on that man's conscience, not mine!

- No.

- I'm in charge. I'm in charge!

- No.

Oh, my God.

Uh, uh...

F***!

All units withdraw.

I repeat, all units withdraw.

I would like to apologize

to our viewers for that.

I do not know what to say.

- It's a very...

- This is unprecedented.

...very grave situation.

We will continue to learn more on this.

That should have never happened.

Hello.

Hi, Daddy.

Princess.

What are you doing?

Is everything okay?

I'm fine, Dad.

The nice policewoman said

over here

that you're being a real,

real hero.

I'm proud of you, Dad.

I love you so much.

You know that?

All Daddy wants to do is to

make everything okay for you.

I just want you to feel better.

If I could take

all your pain away

and make it mine,

I would.

You know that?

I know that, Dad.

I love you too.

I'm gonna see you

real soon, okay?

Okay.

I know about the bills.

I know about the surgery.

You're not going to be able to get

that money here on time, Vaughn.

She is going to lose her spot.

I'll have that money there

by 7:
00.

You and your psycho friend

just killed a hostage.

So for the sake

of your daughter,

give yourself up.

You have no idea

what's really going on here.

It's not what it seems.

Yeah, well,

it all seems pretty f***ed.

And unless that bus grows wings,

then you ain't got a hope

in sh*t to make it anyways.

The only way off that bus

is with your hands up, man.

God damn it!

Get me off this f***in' bus!

F***! God! F***!

Get me out of here!

I got an idea.

All right, detective,

here's the deal.

No more games.

You fix the tire,

I release

all the hostages but one.

Once I get where I'm going,

I release the last hostage.

Nobody follows us.

I see someone follow us...

choppers, police escort...

I kill another f***ing hostage.

What do you think, detective?

This gonna work for you?

Deal.

Sending in a mechanic,

the bus is being repaired.

And it appears we're close

to a resolution.

Go.

I spoke to your guys

and they're in position.

So once the bus pulls out,

it'll just be me and your guys out there.

We'll take the bus,

I'll put a bullet in Vaughn.

I'll get your money.

Sounds like a plan.

Don't f*** it up.

All right, it appears

that some of the hostages

are coming off of the bus now.

One hostage remains on the bus,

which now appears

to be departing.

The police have ordered

news choppers not to follow.

That'll be $1.25,

gentlemen.

Hey, Cox's Sucker!

She's ready and waiting, my brother.

Eh, he's a little

indisposed at the moment.

Wanted me to call and tell

you we'd be there in 10, 15.

And there could be a change

in destination.

She got enough fuel to get

you anywhere you want to go.

Hello?

Anybody here?

Put it down.

You hungry?

Eat rock salt, motherf***er.

Marconi, please respond.

This is a f***in' sh*t storm.

I'm done.

All right?

I gotta get out of here.

I'm sorry, Mr. Pope,

but if we'd done this sh...

Anyone seen Marconi?

Welcome back, Vaughn.

I'd make this painless

for old time's sake.

Bullet-in-the-head

kind of deal,

but we had a lot

of cleaning to do.

What time is it?

7:
15.

What are you laughing at?

You remember that card trick

you used to do all the time

when I was a kid?

The one I could never figure out

'cause I was so busy

watching the hand

when the magic was really

happening in the other hand?

What the f*** you talking about?

I needed to get the money

to the hospital by 7:00.

That was the deadline.

Pay everything off by 7:00,

Riley continues her treatments,

she gets her surgery.

So why are you smiling?

You missed it.

Are you sure about that?

Or you been too busy watching

the hand holding the deck?

Check the bag.

Where's the money?

You forgot your own trick,

Mr. Pope.

You were watching

the wrong hand.

- You forgot the magic.

- Morning.

- Open the door!

- There is no "we."

We pull this off

and get out of the Swan alive,

I'm on my own.

That pregnant chick,

she goes into labor?

They storm the bus.

Hostages be damned.

That was great, sis.

I still don't understand

why I have to be pregnant.

Come on,

who's going to suspect a pregnant woman?

Where's the money?

Is this going

to take much longer?

There's just somewhere

I really need to be.

Yeah, I'm her aunt,

father's side.

Your money's going to save

a little girl's life.

What about your life?

That was a trade

I was willing to make.

You're a f***ing hero.

Saves your little girl's life

by sacrificing your own.

I'm touched.

You see, you see...

you have $3 million.

So you know

what I'm going to do?

First, I'm going

to light a match

and I'm going to watch you burn.

Then I'm going down

to the hospital personally

and I'm gonna see

your little girl.

And guess what?

I want you to think about her suffering.

Suffering...

Oh, I'm gonna f***in' touch her.

Oh, you better believe it.

What are you doing, huh?

Huh? What are you doing?

What are you

trying to tell me? Yeah.

See how it's not funny,

b*tch? Huh?

Stealing $3 million is not

so f***ing funny now, is it?

Rule #1

is you never steal from us!

If you do,

we'll make an example out of a thief!

Make sure you really know that

you can't steal from us or me!

I'm gonna f***in'

light your ass up.

F*** all.

Time to light you

the f*** up!

This ain't on my family.

This ain't on me.

Don't touch my girl!

What a f***in' day.

You gonna be okay?

You know, my mother,

she was a nurse.

A good woman.

Strong.

She used to say

when people were dying,

on their last breaths...

deathbed sh*t...

they'd open up with regrets,

things they wished

they'd done different,

stuff they were desperate

to put right.

And so she had this saying.

"Regrets in death

meant you'd lived life wrong.

"Don't live

life wrong, Frank."

Dog me to a tee,

would have made

the same mistakes I made.

I can't fix what I did,

but I can stop it

from happening again.

I should go see my daughter.

You're a good dad, Vaughn.

Thanks.

I didn't expect you to answer.

I thought you might be...

Dead?

Yeah, me too.

Strange, huh?

You gonna arrest me, Officer Bauhaus?
