Watch out, sucker. Can not you see

that the light on red?

For the airport.

I almost did.

- How do you fly?

Half past nine.

We easily get that.

172, en route to McCarran.

Okay, they're waiting for you.

Good timing. Nobody leaves the

Saturday night in Las Vegas.

Cigarette?

Can not faster?

I can not afford fine.

You have plenty of time.

If you see me as soon as possible

to the airport ...

... This is for you.

Agreed.

Can not it faster?

- I'm trying.

This is the shortest route,

nobody knows him.

At most two minutes, nothing more.

Rot of the road if you can not drive.

Which company?

- Never mind, keep driving.

Then get in, dick.

What the hell?

- Driving.

I want nothing to do with it.

- If they catch us, go to it.

Ride, damn.

- Shut up.

You want to die? Driving.

Shake it off.

They want to murder us.

What's happening?

What are you doing?

- Shut up.

That cost me my head. Dodging.

Watch out, they will ram us.

Driving.

What do you do? Driving.

- I cover it.

McCarran is on a pedestrian

deliberately hit by a car.

The 32-year-old victim,

a casino employee ...

... Died on the spot.

According to witnesses, was Nichols

driven mercilessly to the ground.

There is a revolver found

Other clues are missing.

In further developments

notify us again.

It is clear who the perpetrators are.

The mafia loves crash carts.

What would that poor man have

been up to?

Since he does not worry about

more to make.

He seems to overstep the mark

gone.

You can not hide

You find them everywhere anyway.

I'm tired, I'm out.

See ya.

Good idea, you look awful.

I will not cheer. Until tomorrow.

Where did I honderdje?

What the hell?

That was long ago.

I missed you.

A couple of months.

Four.

Really?

I was afraid that somebody else had.

Do not lie to you.

There's too much

self-confidence.

You know exactly how I put together.

While I ...

... Almost nothing from you about.

I do not know what work you do.

I do not know where you live.

And I have a feeling ...

... That you not use your real name.

You're the most mysterious man

I have ever met.

There are people who have secrets

should have.

And I am one of them.

I keep it a try.

Some day ...

... You wake up next to me.

And I know all about you.

It would not be so good ...

... If you knew everything about me.

I would not really happy.

Why not?

If people know about you too much,

you are far too vulnerable.

And that should never happen.

I fall asleep.

You've worn me out.

Kiss me to sleep?

Your casino has a deficit of one

million. Stolen by your manager.

I'm sorry that I have this bad

news should.

I know you lot like Al Chambers

are made.

Can you prove it?

- Yes.

You have from now nothing

to do with this case.

You keep your mouth.

You have now nothing more

it. Understood?

I understand it.

Completely.

From you I had never expected, Al.

What can I do for you, Mr. Chambers?

- Two things.

My money back. And that taxi driver

must disappear.

There should be no trace left behind.

May I ask what?

Do you ever open your mouth?

You have a great reputation.

Everywhere you are regarded as a boulder.

And you're the most expensive of all.

Then you must occasionally

open your mouth?

If you had hired me before,

money was never gone.

Then you're at home lying on one ear,

instead of making you sappel.

What do you do? Call me?

Perhaps not such a bad idea.

Arrogant bastard.

Excuse me.

Sorry to bothering you ...

Could you look? Do you know something

a free gift or something?

I wondered if the alley

anticipates that thing over there ...

What do you want?

- What do you think?

A date?

- A scary cousin, I did again.

I want your wallet. Your money.

Credit cards.

Or I'll blow your guts out.

With that thing?

Please help me.

I can not see.

But buy a dog.

Hurry up, this woman has

has called twice.

Rodney.

- Are you okay?

I was thinking of you. I was in the

neighborhood so I guess I'm just going along.

I'm glad to see you.

How's the sex?

Another new ladies?

Which I can only afford

if you come by. They are so expensive.

Seems like they have a union.

- Whether it is inflation.

The whole commercial is bothered.

- Exactly what I thought.

What can I do for you?

I am looking for a colleague of yours. He has

nothing for a while make themselves heard.

Right. Logan. I was wondering

where it was hanging bungler.

Do you want the picture?

You have earned a bonus.

Thank you.

Can we keep him?

- You can also keep the rest.

Put it back.

You know what I like about you?

Do you?

Well?

- You're totally curious.

I hope it stays that way.

Jerry, are you home?

The luck will smile at you, huh?

Davis, Las Vegas police.

We are looking for this man.

Familiar face?

You sold him a ticket?

Did not see?

The next train to Vancouver

leaves in 45 minutes.

In the large towns it stops?

Salt Lake City, after nine hours.

- Okay, one way love Vancouver.

How much is that?

- $ 183.

Under what name?

Jerry Logan.

Is this for me?

Your change. Have a nice trip.

Coffee?

You want something to eat?

Heavy night behind?

Have you lost a lot?

What did you say?

- Las Vegas, dreamland ...

... Land of losers. Do you have any

about, or have you lost everything?

I even improved.

Can I give you good advice?

I would stop it anyway.

I should know.

I'm waiting for my train.

- Where?

Salt Lake City.

I live not, it's my next

stop.

What do you nervous.

- Lack of sleep.

That must be it.

- I gotta go.

This is for you.

The coffee costs only a dollar.

- You've never seen.

There are so many people. After a

while everyone looks the same.

Awesome, thanks.

I look at people. Wait you really

on the train? You really go to Salt Lake?

Can I ask you an advice?

You have to be careful with waitresses.

This time you lucky.

On track 7 is expected

The Northstar Limited ...

... Which will stop in Salt Lake,

Boise, Portland and Seattle.

Passengers are requested to

prepare for departure.

Your ticket, then you can resume

sleep.

Detective Davis. What is

that train going?

The Limited? Vancouver.

With many stops en route.

All major cities?

- Right.

Having trouble?

- We are looking for this man.

Jerry Logan. We suspect that he

sitting on that train ...

... And this has made.

Not with me, my service is just

started.

Logan, did you?

Name:
Jerry.

There is indeed a Jerry Logan

on that train.

I thought you were.

- If a driver is less Vegas?

And you have my briefcase?

- Yes and no.

Vegas has one less taxi driver.

Escaped by train.

With my money?

- Almost.

There is talk of something you

one hated it.

A gambler who wins.

- Where did he go?

To Vancouver, but I doubt

if he ever arrives.

Why?

- He knows he is being followed.

Therefore he has taken the train.

He can get off anywhere ...

... Spot a fly

and immediately fly everywhere.

He will not go to Vancouver because

He suspects he will be met.

Okay. And what are you up to?
