Jake, we have an illegal entry.

This is one sick puppy.

No, it's not him. He's the key.

I gotta find him.

Jake, wait a minute. Jake!

Who the f*** are you?

Hey, break it up.

Back off.

No more phone calls.

Who are you? What do you want?

How is he?

Caucasian male, black leatherjacket.

Any units in the area...

That's two blocks away.

There was two guys,

and they were fighting...

...and then they shot my boss.

They just took off.

- Calm down.

- Two guys, they're identical twins.

- And they were fighting.

- Okay, stay here.

The janitor said that it was

two identical twins fighting.

Identical twins.

Go, straight.

- Yeah?

- Hey, I'm proud of you. You're alive.

Who is he?

You're so smart,

figure it out for yourself.

Oh, I will.

It will be my biggest challenge yet.

Watch where you're going.

Hey, buddy. Go on, beat it.

Get out of here. Yeah, you.

Get out of here.

- Hello, Jake. How's my replicant?

- Fine.

Shits and pisses in the toilet

and wants to get laid.

Hasnt killed anybody yet, though.

You know what I mean.

Yeah, I do.

And, yeah, something's happening.

- I think he's remembering stuff.

- Excellent.

What can we do

to accelerate the process?

Nothing.

He's doing fine just on his own.

But I've chosen a different approach.

- Yeah? What's that?

- What, you don't know?

You don't know

where we are right now?

I mean, aren't you still tracking us?

Hey, baby, what's the hurry?

Like what you see?

Hey.

Let's take a walk.

Come on.

Make yourself comfortable.

Okay. Yeah.

Kiss me. Yes.

Yeah.

Okay. Yeah.

Oh, yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

So, what's it gonna be?

Okay. Yeah.

Oh, yeah.

Have a seat.

Let's just take this off.

There we go.

Okay, we can do that.

Okay. Yeah.

Oh, yeah.

Okay, that's all the freebies, baby.

Now I gotta see the green.

Okay, like I said, a hundred bucks.

Pay up.

No. A hundred bucks. Pay up.

Hey, I said, a hundred bucks.

Pay up.

What are you doing?

Hey!

Let me go.

Get the f*** off of me!

Get away!

No! F*** off.

Yeah, I got me a deadbeat.

What the hell is wrong with you?

Is this your first time?

Oh, sh*t.

Look, I had no idea.

Hey, let's say it never happened,

okay? Go.

Come on, go.

Stop it.

Stop it. Go.

We got a problem with payment?

I'm here to collect.

Just leave him alone.

- He doesn't know what he's doing.

- Shut up. You like this guy or what?

You know the f***ing rules,

don't you? Don't you?

I've had enough. I've had enough.

Stop it!

Leave him alone. Please.

Police! Don't move!

- Get down! Freeze!

- Don't shoot!

- Get down now! Get down!

- He didn't do anything.

Paul, and you men, hey! Easy, boys,

easy, boys. Come on, man.

- What's going on here?

- It's okay.

He's with me. I'll get him.

Okay, take it easy.

Relax. Sit down.

It's all right, you'll be okay.

Go with him. Go.

Hey.

I brought you your coat.

Look me up when you get out, huh?

Come on, come on.

What is it you remember?

Come on, help me out, buddy.

Think. Think.

- Remember.

What do you mean "bad boy"?

- Mama.

The killing of the mothers?

Come on, talk to me.

- What do you remember?

- Remember.

- Do you know who this woman is?

- You get the rendering?

No, there's no DMV or passport.

Gotta be a tourist or something.

Sh*t. Is she next?

- Look at this picture.

- Is she next?

Is she next?

Rock-a-bye baby

On the treetop

When the wind blows

The cradle will rock

When the bough breaks

The cradle will fall

What do you see?

Me kill.

Jake, who am I?

You are a genetic double.

Genetic double.

Yeah.

I don't understand it either, buddy...

...but the other half, he's a killer.

No, no.

Hop in.

It's all yours.

Feel good?

Good.

Ice cream.

There you go.

You gotta do me a favor here.

Would you look at that?

You know that girl?

What are you thinking?

Here, here, here. No. Here.

Draw up here.

That's good, right there.

Good to see you again, Nancy.

I don't know. House, church, what?

Go on.

I got it.

I know. I know.

Pardon me.

Can you tell me if she's staying here?

Excuse me?

Is she a guest at the hotel?

- Who are you? Police? You have ID?

- It doesn't matter who I am.

- I think she's in danger.

- I'm sorry, sir...

...but hotel regulations

strictly forbid me to...

Excuse me?

Sir, you're not permitted upstairs

unless accompanied by hotel staff.

Okay, I understand that.

I'm calling security. Get out.

Get out.

Stay.

Sh*t.

Open the door. Come on,

come on, come on. Give me that.

- Make your call.

- We have a fire at 1404.

I repeat, we have a fire at 1404.

Here.

Go.

- Is he close?

- Close.

Hey. What are you doing?

Get back.

Get over here and open the door.

Open the door, damn you!

Open the frigging door!

Open the door! Hey!

Son of a b*tch.

Hey!

Get back here and open the door now!

Get over here!

Stop it! Get over here right now!

Get back here, you ass!

Son of a b*tch.

Damn it.

You received my message.

What are you?

Genetic double.

A clone.

Un-f***ing-believable.

Fantastic.

Beautiful.

My exact replica.

We are the same.

Same?

Yeah. My body is your body.

My mind is your mind.

My life is your life.

But, my brother,

Jake cannot be trusted.

He's going to kill you.

I'll protect you, my brother.

Brother.

God, you son of a... Where are you?

Hey!

- We are identical. Identical.

- Get out of the way!

Get out of the way!
