Shoot 'Em Up Page #5

Synopsis: Late at night, in an unnamed U.S. city, a solitary man sits at a bus stop. A pregnant woman runs by, pursued by a man with a gun. With reluctance, the man at the bus stop rescues her and assists with the baby's delivery, while additional pursuers fire at them, including the gang's particularly nasty leader, an intuitive man named Hertz. Our hero, known only as Smith, determines to save the child and find out why Hertz wants the baby dead. At a local bordello, he tries to employ a lactating hooker to watch the child, but things quickly escalate, and this makeshift family is soon on the run. Heavy metal music calms the baby. Why? A laboratory, gun factory, and presidential campaign all figure in Smith's quest for the child's safe deliverance.

What are you babbling

on about now?

Do you really think

the people that employ me...

were just gonna bend over

and take your little stunt...

killing the senator?

There's no way that you can

cover up this whole thing.

No? Haven't you heard

the news?

The senator's plane

crashed into the East River.

They haven't been able to find

the body of Senator Rutledge.

So, you see, once I silence you

and the woman...

the cover-up will be complete.

So, once again, I ask you...

where are the woman and child?

You know how I'd break

your finger?

My boy told me this one.

You'd punch me in the nose.

I'd kick you in the ass.

Very amusing.

I give that one the ol' thumbs up!

What if you don't

get to us before we leave?

Oh, I know your whole story.

That man who went

on the shooting spree in the restaurant.

He visited the little gun shop

that you inherited from your dad.

I found out how your wife

and son were killed.

You sold him

the pair of shotguns...

Shotguns.

...that killed your own wife and boy.

I'm not telling you...

a goddamn thing.

Where are you, Smith?

Well, well, well, well, well.

We're gonna need somethin'

a little more invasive.

That's it.

Aren't guns just f***ing great,

Hammerson?

'Ey.

Who's a hotshot now, huh?

Oh, yes, sirree, Bob.

It certainly has been a pleasure.

But before we part ways...

tell me one thing.

I am dead on...

about who you are, right?

Say that again?

I said, I am dead...

Stop.

That part of it you got right.

It's the wife.

Hi, honey.

She's leaving me.

You know what I really hate?

What I really hate...

...is a p*ssy with a gun in his hand.

Investigators discovered

the body of Senator Rutledge today.

The FBI stated an anonymous

tip led them to the remains.

Don't worry, little boy.

Mama will be watching you

while she's working.

Oliver.

Hello.

What took you so long?

All right, this is a robbery!

Empty the drawer, all of it.

Everyone else, freeze!

Do it or I'll f***ing blow your head off!

He said freeze.

That means don't even

pucker your butthole.

That's right.

No puckering, nobody dies.

So don't f***in' move.

We're kinda

in a rush here, man! Come on!

- You know what I hate?

- Shut up and sit on this, a**hole.
