Loose Cannons Page #7

So maybe you should thank me.

Did you ever think of that?

I never thought about it like that.

But now that you put it that way...

...thanks for being a sleazebag for me.

My pleasure.

Anyway, I say nail this Von Metz

because he is a real sleazebag.

Do you know what I mean?

Oh, my God! Oh, Jesus!

Sh*t. Oh, sh*t. Oh, sh*t.

That bastard's trying

to take over the train.

He has taken over the train.

They need Gutterman alive.

That gives us an advantage.

I'll hold them. You go to the back.

- Ellis, I need your help!

- Who are they, Sundance?

Next time I say let's go someplace like

Bolivia, let's go someplace like Bolivia!

- Who's he doing now?

- I don't know.

- Halt!

- No, no, no.

Not until Harvey and I get the

rules straightened out.

- Butch Cassidy and the...

- Sundance Kid.

Harvey? Rules?

Halt! Halt!

Halt! Halt!

Road Runner?

Hey, it's working.

Let's move!

Road Runner! Road Runner!

Up the stairs!

Get Gutterman. Come on! Come on!

- Who are they?

- I've been asking that all day!

We can fight or they'll

starve us, Sundance.

What?

They might surrender,

but I wouldn't count on it.

- We'll fight!

- No, we'll jump!

- Are you crazy?

- Do you want to die?

- I can't swim!

- We gotta jump!

Are you nuts?

You couldn't possibly sink.

Harry! Harry!

I'm Popeye the Sailor Man

The Love Boat

Soon we'll be taking another cruise

Rollin', rollin' on the river

Chopper's coming. Come on, let's go!

Get down! Get down!

They're coming back.

They're leaving.

We'll be lucky if he doesn't have

a bloodhound on that helicopter.

What do we do now?

They can't hang around too long. That

hijacking will attract a lot of attention.

We'll just wait here until dark.

There's a little town

a couple miles back.

Ellis, are you all right?

I'm sorry, Mac. I'm sorry.

Let's go, Harry.

It's getting late.

Let's get ready to go, kid.

I can't make it, Mac.

What? What are you talking about?

The whole thing. I just... I feel like

I'm collapsing in on myself.

I feel like the next time I go to split,

l... I'm gonna go...

...and I'm not gonna make it back,

and there's gonna be no Ellis anymore.

So you gotta take me

back to the brothers.

Listen, I'm gonna say

something to you...

...that I have never ever said

to anybody in my life, ever.

What's that?

I need your help.

Yeah, I need your help.

You know, I've always had

this kind of noble view of myself.

That I'm this Mr. Straight Arrow

living in a crooked world.

If you don't like my merry-go-round,

get off and get your own wooden horse.

And then you came along, and

I saw you out there battling against...

...enemies that you couldn't even see.

I said to myself, "I gotta help this guy."

I mean, "I need to help this guy."

So you can't go back to the monastery.

You got that straight?

Sure, Mac.

You know the poet Dylan Thomas?

I've read a couple sonnets.

My favorite line of poetry:

Do not go gentle into that good night

Rage, rage against the dying of the light

That's what you're doing, kid.

You've seen the light flickering, and

you're afraid it's gonna go out. And it is.

It is gonna go out.

And that should piss you off.

You gotta get your rage back. You gotta

fight. You know what I'm saying?

Scare those dark, ugly buggers

just right back into the night.

Throw your head back and howl,

you know? Try it, come on.

Throw your head back and howl.

Come on, try it. Come on.

Come on, that's a puppy yelp. Come on.

Throw your head back and howl.

Come on.

That's it. Come on.

Doesn't that feel good?

Now it's both of them. Oh, sh*t.

Pretty snazzy, Harry.

- You gone legit?

- I got a lot of legitimate interests.

Is this joint in your name?

It's a corporation. I'm the president.

Then Grimmer and his storm troopers

will find it, if they haven't already.

Mac.

- Do we give the film to the Israelis?

- Yes.

I don't know where the Israelis are,

and I don't have time to find them.

She knows where we are.

You told her?

You shouldn't have done that.

Mac, the Israelis are gonna

make sure the world...

...sees this film tonight.

What are you talking about?

Von Metz is speaking to the International

Conference of Christians and Jews.

The Israelis will project the film

during his speech.

All right!

Harry, is there a back way in this joint?

Are you kidding?

- Yeah. Okay.

- Is this a secret passage?

It comes in very handy with jealous

husbands, business partners, et cetera.

Get on your intercom, find out if any

large groups have come through today.

Max. Maxie?

Where the hell are you, Max?

Max!

A two-way mirror, huh?

Yeah, yeah, two-way mirror.

- Hello?

- Max, it's me.

Any large groups of people

come through today?

Just singles and couples.

Lots of business for this time of day.

- Anybody speaking German?

- Anybody talking German?

No, sir, no Germans.

What's going on, Mr. Gutterman?

Nothing. Thank you.

Let's take a look around.

Harry, you got a gun I can use?

Oh, be my guest.

- Wow!

- All sizes, all shapes, all models.

Every health spa so equipped?

We got a lot of competition

in this business.

Can you handle this?

I can handle it.

If you change, make it into Rambo.

Yo.

It looks harmless enough.

On the surface.

Is that a steam room over there?

Check it.

Why don't you grab a towel

and join us?

I'm trying to quit.

Don't be cute. I speak pig Latin.

Pig Latin.

Gesundheit.

Steckler!

- All right, Harry!

- Go, Harry!

They're f***ing

with the wrong Jew this time!

Steckler! Get Steckler!

Get Steckler out of here!

- What are you gonna do?

- I'll cover you.

Come on! My gun's jammed!

Ellis, cover me!

- Hey!

- At Grand Central Station in a locker.

What?

Hunky-dory, yeah? Up, Liebling.

Grimmer!

It's over!

I said, up, a**hole!

Hold your fire! We have

your collaborators.

Out the door now! Now out!

Or we kill everybody! Now!

He told you, yeah?

Only God hears him now. He's dead.

Now! Tell me now! I have no time!

I don't know.

You leave me no choice.

You understand German! Tell me,

where is it? Tell me!

- Where is it?

- I'll take you to it.

Grand Central! We're going

to Grand Central Station.

Damn it!

- Get me a blanket.

- You got it.

No blanket. Get a pliers.

You need tokens. Got any tokens, Mac?

- I don't... I don't have any of them.

- We need some, though.

- I could get them for you.

- Why don't we do that.

What's the matter?

It's the ceiling. It's closing in.

I feel a little...

You're a good cop. You're gonna

be all right. Hold on, all right?

- We'll make our move.

- What?

- Umpjay annisterbay.

- Huh?

Umpjay annisterbay.

Come on! Get... Go!

- Mac!

- Ellis!

Get up!

Ellis!

Ellis! Ellis!

Police officer. Let me through, please.

Let me through. Police officer!

Police officer. Back this train up!

- Are you crazy? I can't back up.

- Back up!

- Subway, no reverse.

- Damn!

This one of your regular haunts,

Grimmer?

Taxi! Taxi! Taxi!

Police! Open up. Come on, open up!

- What's going on?
