Shoot 'Em Up Page #4
ya don't like that story?
Well, then why don't
ya tell me one, hm?
Children's story, please.
Tell me the one about the baby.
Maybe later...
when I put you to sleep.
Go, go!
So, what do you think
F*** you!
OK, buddy, drop your weapon.
Think we got him?
God damn it, Smith!
So I found out
who's tryin' to kill our baby.
- Who?
- A man named Hammerson.
Born with a silver spoon up his ass.
Inherited the Hammer
Firearms Corporation...
from his old man and
makes millions manufacturing weapons.
Does this give you any new ideas...
about who needs
Oliver's bone marrow?
No.
It's OK, little Oliver.
Sh*t. It's him.
Senator Rutledge.
If he's elected president,
he'll put Hammerson out of business.
It makes sense,
but how can you be sure?
Mr. Go-To Guy called his men
a fine lot of babysitters.
The secret service calls their agents
who guard VIPs babysitters.
It's him, Senator Rutledge.
He's the guy that needs this baby.
So we contact this man
and then we're safe.
- It's over.
- Are you crazy?
This means that
we've got Hammerson...
and the whole of the U.S.
Government after us.
I think you two have
gotta get out of town.
Until I get the answers,
you'll never be safe.
They'll be watchin' the trains,
the bus stations and the airports...
So I think this is the safest
way to get out of town.
I'm gonna check all of this out,
and if everything's OK...
I'll get you
before you board the bus.
But... What if you don't get
to us before we leave?
Where should I get off?
I think it's better if I don't know.
- What?
- Trust me.
I can't know.
Smith, do you really think
this is gonna work?
Just stick to the plan
and everything will be all right.
Run!
So much for wearin' your seat belt.
What in the hell is that?
Oh, my God, that is twisted.
That sick son of a b*tch.
Oh, that sick son of a b*tch
suckered us again!
It's time to go, little boy.
Put me through to whoever's
protecting Senator Rutledge.
Just tell him there's a man
with a baby calling.
Hello, is this Smith?
That was a nice job coverin' up
your baby hatchery downtown.
Not a word about it anywhere.
Only you guys in Washington
have that kind of pull.
I'm telling you,
we're on the same side.
Now, listen, we can do this
the easy way or the hard way.
I wanna see the senator.
All right. He wants to see you too.
He's leaving for North Carolina.
The primary's in three days.
You can fly with him.
Runway 7, two hours.
I see anythin' I don't like,
I'm blowin' this big time.
What were you doing in there?
- Cleaning my gun.
- Really?
You know, we were
never really trying to kill you.
into surrendering.
Well, that's one way to explain
why you can't shoot straight.
In the latest poll,
Senator Rutledge...
continues to be the
Democratic frontrunner...
heading into next week's
Super Tuesday primary.
He leads his rival by at least 10 points...
I owe you my life.
So this is where you get to do
all those hookers.
- You look worse than you do on TV.
Yes, it's amazing
And a lot of morphine.
So, you've pieced
Very clever, Mr. Smith.
Very clever.
Simple.
You're the Democratic
frontrunner for president...
and your sweeping
gun control proposals...
are pissing the wrong people off.
Yes, well, if they're pissed now,
wait until I'm elected president.
We got so many goddamn...
gun lobbies out there...
that we're gonna have to set up
just as many commissions.
Then maybe we'll get our bill
passed in the first year.
Unfortunately, you're sick
They discovered your baby hatchery
and, boom, problem solved.
- They kill you by killin' the babies.
- Correct.
So, where's my savior?
Oh, my God! Gun!
Easy, easy.
You know what I hate most?
- liars.
- What the hell you doin'?
You made a deal with Hammerson.
- No, you're crazy.
- Am I?
- Y...
- When you got into bed with him...
you also let his dog up on the mattress.
lookin' at those dog hairs
on your trousers...
I'd say old Duchess took a likin' to you.
I don't know what you're talkin' about.
Save the line for when
you're in office, Rutledge.
If he ever makes it there.
Do you know what else I hate?
Hypocrites.
And you're the biggest one of all.
Can you blame him
for sellin' out?
His operation to find the baby...
had been tits up from the get-go.
and he offered us...
a proposition that we had
never dreamed was possible.
In exchange for his life...
the senator promised
to protect our right...
To go deer hunting with an Uzi.
Oh, come on, Smith. Come on.
Guns don't kill people.
But they sure help.
Back off!
Back off.
- Back off or I'll kill him!
- Oh, please.
Pl... I had to do it.
I want to live.
I am meant to be president.
Yeah? Well, you got what it takes.
You put yourself before the people.
I can still do good in other areas.
with the public?
It is a constitutional right.
Back off! Get back!
I've come around
to their way of thinking.
Come around?
They had you at 'hello. '
let me give you a piece of advice...
Never trust the people who stand
to profit, plain and simple.
- They're the bad guys.
- Come on, Smith, don't be a fool.
Go-to guy:
The game is over.You rolled the dice, you lost.
let him go, Smith!
There's no escape!
Maybe not for me, but there
is for the woman and baby.
If I kill Rutledge, no one
will need to find them.
They'll be saved.
Your assassination, Rutledge,
will create a public outrage...
for your proposals.
The sympathy vote in the congress
will give your anti-gun bills...
passage by a landslide.
Your legacy... will live on.
Don't do it!
Then do it.
let me regain some honor
with my...
That son of a b*tch.
Son of a b*tch!
God damn it!
Don't move, Mr. Hero.
Can't talk right now, honey.
I'm right in the middle of somethin'.
Bye-bye.
Don't you worry, Duchess.
This isn't gonna happen to you.
Not for a few years, anyway.
Well, well,
well, well, well.
Somebody gets to be smart,
and somebody gets to be dumb.
looks like you and I have
finally traded places, huh, sport?
Yes, indeed.
The circle of life.
The circle-a jerk of life.
Oh, you have
such a way with words.
Now...
I want you to tell me...
where the woman
and the child are.
Tell me, or I will be forced
to cause you...
considerable agony.
Believe me...
nothing could be more painful than
listenin' to you jabberin' on and on.
Again, I ask...
where are the woman and child?
That's the last time
you'll be doin' that.
Just tell me what I wanna hear.
It's your choice
when the pain stops.
Why are you doin' this?
- It's over.
- It shortly will be, yeah.
No, I really should thank you.
I just got a bigger contract
because of you.
I mean, I wasn't just on
Hammerson's payroll, you know.
