Who are you, sir?

Fine, thank you.

Now just relax.

Everything's gonna be all right. I'm right here.

Oh, my goodness.

I thought you'd never come.

Do you know what's wrong?

Of course I know what's happened.

This is called "Blindness Hystericus."

Oh, my God.

Sometimes it comes just like that.

How do you treat it?

The left and right brain

are having a fight with each other.

You gotta distract them

for a minute.

Now, Dr. Johannson,

how many fingers am I holding up

in front of your eyes right now?

Three!

Good.

That's pretty good,

considering that he's blind.

Now, doctor, I want you

to just relax. Take it easy,

and you tell me the first thing

that pops into your brain.

P*ssy.

It's amazing! This man is cured.

Come on, doctor.

We gotta take a walk,

get the heart pumping.

And then it's gonna be all brand-new.

Come on, doctor.

That's it. Easy.

Where's Adele?

I don't know. She's not in the room.

See, if he gets too excited, it comes right back.

Gently. Take it easy, doctor.

This guy's blind as a bat.

Oh! Watch your step.

What's the matter with you?

You got a Lyons and Kerew

registered here?

I'll check, sir. I'm sorry, we have no one...

One guy's blind, the other's deaf.

I'm sure. I just checked.

If I brought in some pictures, could you identify them?

I'll try.

Do you have a security officer?

Right behind you.

Single file. Single file.

Okay, take it easy. Take it easy.

Excuse me.

Where's the little red Alfa?

They just took off.

Who?

Three of them.

A lady with great legs,

an English guy

and a black woman.

My God. My sister.

Hey, um, the man,

he asked me to give this to you.

"If you wanna see the girl,

bring the coin to the house with a thousand windows."

Route 104.

Is this a joke?

No, that's the Sutherland Estate.

I hope you have an invitation.

Heh-heh-heh. He's got some mean dogs up there.

Dogs?

Yeah, Dobermans. They're killers.

Do you have our keys with you?

Yeah.

Would you do me a favor?

Sure.

If we're not back in 30, call the police.

Police?

New York Police Department.

Ask for Captain Braddock.

And tell him... Sorry, Wally.

Tell him Lyons and Kerew

are at the Sutherland Estate.

The house is all glass, and it's on huge rocks.

- My sister?

- Nothing yet, Wally.

There's a lot of land here.

- There.

- What?

It's a greenhouse. There she is, Wally.

- Is she all right?

- I think so.

And there are the dogs.

Three of them.

Now they're leaving.

They're going.

Looks like they're locking the door.

Now they're going back

to the main house.

She's gonna be all alone

in about two minutes.

You all clear on the plan?

Clear as a bell.

I'm gonna go water the plants,

if you don't mind.

Hey, you sure there's

only three dogs?

I better take a look.

The parking brake has been released.

Yeah, just the three of them.

I don't see what could go wrong.

You hear that, Dave?

Better check the brake!

Whoa! Wally!

Dave?

Wally, I'm in trouble!

Pull out, Dave!

The parking brake

has been released.

Where are you, Dave?

Ah! Whoa! Whoa!

Dave, I can't...

Whoa, whoa, whoa!

The parking brake has...

Dave.

Dave?

Talk to me, Dave.

Dave!

The parking brake

has been released.

Dave! Speak to me!

Dave!

Dave! Talk to me!

The parking brake...

Talk to me, Dave!

I can hear the car, but I can't hear you!

I can't see you, Dave. Unh!

Thank you.

Dave? Dave!

Oh, Dave. My God, Dave,

what have I done this time?

Dave?

Oh, sh*t! Dave!

Oh!

My God, Dave.

Dave, you say something?

Talk to me.

I can't see your lips.

What are you saying?

Dave, can you see them now?

Yeah.

Heh. There you are.

What are you saying?

I'm saying...

I think it's over.

I didn't just

f*** my life up today.

I dragged my sister into this sh*t.

Damn near got her killed.

And I hurt you.

I just want to say I'm sorry, Dave.

Don't back out on me, Willy.

Dave, I've been running on fumes

most of my life.

And today I realized for the first time:

I'm full of sh*t.

Well, that's true.

But this morning,

I threatened to shoot

a naked woman with my erection.

Now, that doesn't happen every day.

That's true.

The man's got a point.

We'll get her out, Wally.

We'll get her out.

I think we're in

over our heads.

Nobody ever thought

we would get this far.

Don't back out on me now.

I can't.

You can.

We can, I promise. We can.

What if we can't?

F*** it.

Damn you.

I created a monster.

Where's the girl?

In the greenhouse

where they can see her.

Good.

And when can we expect

our two distinguished guests?

They should be arriving

at any moment.

Do they...

have the coin?

Yes, they have the coin.

Wonderful.

What do you think of that?

Lot of trouble over a piece of gold.

I don't know what this is, but it's not gold.

Gold doesn't chip and peel like this.

Doesn't matter, as long as they want it real bad.

Hold on to it in case

anything happens to me.

Nothing's gonna happen to you.

Good. Glad to find that out.

Ready?

Ready.

Okay, Wally.

Start counting.

One...

two, three,

four, five...

- Sixteen, seventeen...

There's a dog. There's a dog!

There's a dog!

Oh!

Ha!

Mmm.

Hey!

No, Dave, no. There's an alarm!

There's an alarm. No, no, no.

No, Dave!

Shh.

So far, so good.

Almost. There.

Now, what's all the fuss about?

Well, I was gonna mention the alarm,

but something else came up.

Who is it?

I was so hoping you'd show up.

Oh, sorry about the flowers.

You like roses, huh?

That's enough, Herman.

It's all right. Just keep your gun pointed on him.

I'll check if he has the coin.

Hands over your head,

Mr. Lyons. Remember?

Turn around.

Careful. You remember

what happened last time.

Ah!

Hit her! Hit her, Dave!

Smack her!

Hit her!

Hit her, Dave! What's...?

Hit her!

Jesus!

I grew up with brothers.

Let's get out of here.

Back up.

You have to run up that log.

I don't have that many brothers.

Oh!

David!

Get out of here!

I don't want to leave you!

Go on, get out of here. Wally's just on top of that hill.

Go on! Get out of here.

Get out!

Jump! Get the police!

Here's the blind one.

Come in, Mr. Kerew.

I'm delighted to see you.

I'm delighted too.

So you're the fat f***

that runs this show.

Beautifully put, Mr. Kerew.

You're obviously a poet,

a man after my own heart.

The coin?

Yes. It's in my pocket.

May I have it, please?

Why bother with a phony coin?

You're quite right, Mr. Kerew,

it's a phony.

A magnificent phony.

May I have it, please?

Mind telling me what I've been running around

risking my life for?

A superconductor.

A room-temperature

superconductor.

It may be the most valuable

material in this world.

Imagine electric cable

the size of that coin

that could light up

an entire city.

You told me it was a gold coin.

Making it look like a coin

was just a handy way to get it out of Washington

after I'd arranged

to borrow a small sample.

I'm currently pointing

a gun at your head.

Under the circumstances,

you and I should renegotiate our contract, don't you?
