Any chance of going

any faster, grandma?

Because this really cannot

be hurting this much.

Frank.

Come on, are you coming?

Here is the key.

Here.

Oh, you are a

magician, aren't you?

Thank you.

Take it.

Uh, no, no, I don't think so.

It's not part of the deal.

Yes, it is.

You get the drive, I walk away.

No, no.

You know, because, funnily

enough, I don't trust you.

I know your style by now.

Your friend has known

about the airport all day.

Who knows what nasty little

surprise might be lurking

behind that locker door.

So if you don't

mind, I won't take

the key because you're going

to need it to open that locker.

Go to hell.

Really?

Excuse me, officer?

What are you doing?

Officer?

Don't.

Um...

Can I help you?

Mm, darling?

All right, all

right, I'll do it.

Yeah, sorry, there's a, uh,

unattended bag down there,

under the stairs.

I didn't know who to

report it to, so...

Thank you, sir.

You're welcome.

Good work.

Shall we?

Flight 822 to Casablanca

departing in five minutes.

It's all yours.

Take it out.

Here.

Open it.

Come on.

Open it.

Happy?

Check it.

Make sure there's no surprises.

You trust me now?

Hm, not now, not ever.

Oh, f***.

Oh, sh*t.

How did you...

I had to let you catch

me, otherwise none of this

would have worked.

Oh, you magnificent...

Shh.

B*tch.

Stay down, don't move.

I think this should be

our last face to face.

You hid it on me?

That tie wasn't

doing you any favors.

It had to be good for something.

Stop him.

That's him.

Stop him.

Stop right there.

Freeze.

Put your hands up.

Right now.

Put 'em up.

Don't f***ing move.

Put your hands up.

Right now.

Get down on the ground.

Queen to bishop five.

Check mate.

You really are the stuff

of legends, aren't you?

Kind of like your tie.

Hm?

Gun.

You OK, ma'am?

Please come with me.

I want to ask you

a few questions.

OK, just right this way, ma'am.

This way, ma'am.

Can you remember what happened?

I was here to meet my

friend McKayla when I found out

her flight had been cancelled.

Then suddenly there

was this explosion

and people started shooting.

What's wrong with this world?

Schools aren't safe, airports.

What's next?

I'm so sorry.

Can I go?

I'm late to fetch my son.

I have a few more questions, OK?

We like to go through

everything with the witnesses

while the memory is still fresh.

Hey, Frankie.

Yeah?

You've got to come see this.

Now.

We've got your number, so

go ahead and fetch your son.

If we need anything

else, we'll call you.

What is it?

You're not going

to believe this,

but I think we got the guys

that pulled the Darling

Street job yesterday.

Is this it?

That's all we found.

The rest must be with the

woman that ran the crew.

I don't think so, man.

Check this out.

Mom?

Tell Matthew I'm coming.

Everything's going to be OK.

Ah, sh*t.

And didn't the guard say

she had some kind of scar

on her face.

Jesus, this is our girl.

What kind of sick mind thinks

something like this up, man?

And who carries a

head around in a bag?

Lock this airport down.

Who's in charge?

You in charge?

Who's asking?

We need all the evidence

you have immediately.

Interpol hasn't got

jurisdiction here.

I'm calling this in.

Whatever.

Here's the bag you

wanted, Mr. MacArthur.

Have a safe trip.

Thanks.

Next?

Drive.

Welcome aboard flight AE3621.

We will try to make your flight

as comfortable as possible.

Rough couple days.

Do I look that bad?

Sorry, it's not rough.

It's cut, like you'll

if you can't open that.

Relax.

I don't work for BAC,

although not voluntarily.

I mean, there's bad

ass and f***ing scary,

and then there's these guys.

This going to take long?

I'm almost there.

Holy sh*t.

Seriously, what sort

of trouble are you in?

We are going to

engineer an event that shapes

the destiny of our country.

In just a few months time,

the north side of Chicago

is going to make 9/11

look like Macy's Parade.

And you'll get your war

and I'll get my office.

It's time we took this country

back the apathetic lemmings

and sycophantic dilettantes that

have run it into the ground.

Turned the US into a

f***ing punch line.

Who am I speaking with?

You can call me Mr. MacArthur.

I was just admiring

some of your handiwork.

So was I.

The Senator will hunt you

to the ends of the f***ing

Earth for that drive.

So why don't we

create some terms

to arrange its return, huh?

What do you say?

We're both reasonable

parties here.

Well, reasonable

isn't the word I'd use

to describe what I'm seeing.

Do you understand me?

No, you understand me.

No, I've spent six years

hiding in the darkness.

It's time to come

back into the light.

I'm sorry, sir,

but I don't have it.

Mr. Washington and

the others failed.

Have they been

appropriately dealt with?

Alex saw to that for us.

All other loose ends

are being tied up now.

With the exception of the drive.

Alexis has it, doesn't she?

She and BAC are going to

be the bane of my run.

BAC is just a bunch

of greedy warmongers.

Well,

sir, greed and warmongering

tend to go hand in

hand when dealing

with defense contractors.

I suppose.

Is Alexis going to be

greedy too or a martyr?

Well, she already

has the diamonds, sir,

so if I'm not mistaken,

I believe that she

just declared war.

A martyr, then.

You know what you have to

be to be a martyr, Doug?

No, sir.

Dead.
