the Philippines right now.

You lost an entire team,

and almost got killed.

And now It's rumor that

he has his own private army.

Great.

Why the hell can't

the police handle this?

Because Lieutenant Kalalo believes...

that some of the forces

actually are on The Wraith's payroll.

That's why Nick got set up,

When he went after Carlo Diaz.

Look, Mrs.Wells...

I feel for you, I really do.

But we work with fraud, cheating partners

and some daily scam cases.

I'll give you 50 thousands Us dollars,

if you find him.

- We can look for him.

- Another 50 if you bring him to me.

I mean he can't hide forever.

- Does anyone know what his real name is?

- No.

Wonderful, I wanted for this.

You should take her somewhere safe.

I'll take her to my place.

The lieutenant says that

this is off the books.

Call him on his mobile phone,

only after you find the Wraith.

And Nick...

Don't forget that you still have friends.

- Where do you wanna begin?

- We check every resource we have.

- Somebody has to know something.

- The trouble's getting them to talk.

- Oh, we'll make them talk.

- We will make them talk?

- You're gonna go Godzilla on me?

- Godzilla?

Every time you take a case personal,

someone gets his head pounded.

- Not all the time.

- Most of the time.

- Some of the time.

- Almost every time.

So what? When you were a cop,

you didn't get passionate about your cases?

- When I was a cop?

- Yeah.

Work was work. I did my job,

I didn't take things personal.

That's what we're gonna do on this job.

We're private investigators,

not terminators.

If you want out.

I don't want out.

We're partners.

- And you want your cut of the money?

- I do.

My friend, we're looking for this guy.

No, I haven't seen him.

- You're sure?

- Yeah, I'm sure.

Okay.

We're getting nowhere fast.

- Nobody's seen a thing.

- Or they're covering up.

Probably scared of the Russian hulk.

We should've done this in my way.

And we would end it up in jail.

Look Nick, I know

how much this thing means to you.

No, you don't.

I got my whole team killed

by this son of a b*tch. I owe him.

We'll get him, partner.

Something will turn up.

Sorry.

We're cool.

Hey, Nick. Charlie...

Hey.

Hi Zoya, how are your folks?

Good. business is great,

lots of deliveries.

Listen, you ride all over the city.

Have you seen him?

Who's he?

Someone very bad.

We really need to find him.

I can keep my eyes open.

Why don't you ask Kiki for help?

She's good at these stuff.

- She's away, In rehab.

- No, she's not.

I saw her in a club dress last night.

And I saw her with that Datu guy,

outside the Tiki lounge.

That's the first place we checked.

Told you, we should've done this my way.

Do you always have to have the last word?

Absolutely.

- What are you having?

- Information.

I don't know about that guy.

Where can I find Datu?

Who is that?

No more lie!

I don't know anything of Datu!

- Where's Datu?

- I don't know, I don't know.

I don't speak Wookie, Chewbacca.

- Talk.

- No, no, no. I don't know.

Upstairs! Upstairs!

Upstairs.

Thank you.

- Nicolas Peyton.

- No sh*t.

Let him in.

- Hold your fire, bro.

- Relax.

Well, well, well!

Look at you.

What are you here for?

You're no longer a cop.

That's true, but I missed you so much

that I thought to stop by.

What do you want, Peyton?

First, Where's Kiki?

She's smoking pole...

- somewhere.

- I see.

You're still pissed you

can't have Kiki, right?

I don't know what you're

talking about, Peyton.

But I've been banging

Kiki, like a firecracker.

You know Bella, you should probably leave.

There've boyfriend over here,

he's going down.

Now!

It's time someone shuts your mouth for you.

Get him!

Datu!

As I said...

two questions.

First.

Where's Kiki?

Trina's seen her in...

Bagail street.

Second question.

Who is he?

I don't know, I don't know him.

Look again.

I told you. I don't know him!

I swear!

Leave Kiki alone.

I thought you were in the rehab.

It sucked, I had to leave.

And you moved out of your place?

My landlord wants favors again.

- Who is this?

- The Wraith.

- Seriously?

- Yeah.

I've never seen his face before.

But I've heard a lot about him, though.

This man, he caused us pain.

Me and Charlie are working for a woman now.

He took her husband in cold blood,

right in front of her.

Hello.

Hi. I'm Sofia,

and you must be...

That's Kiki, Our informant.

Hmm, cool.

So, this is the girlfriend.

I guess so.

You want some Chinese?

Yes, Chinese is very good.

We met in New York.

I was a cop and she was a journalist

I still am.

Back then, when I got

transferred to the Philippines,

Nick said, he wouldn't let me fly alone.

I followed her to Manila.

Finally got a job at the VCU.

The rest is history.

What can I say?

That's a really nice love story.

Thank you.

Anyway, I just stopped by

to remind you of our...

date on Friday?

Theater.

Don't you forget.

- Okay?

- I will not.

Thank you.

Bye, Kiki.

Say hi to Charlie from me, alright?

- I will, thank you.

- Bye.

Brought you Chinese food.

Sofia stopped by, she said hello.

There's one thing though.

I don't know if this is gonna mean much

but, I worked at Wraith's bar yesterday.

Oh, great Go-Go's there.

Or so I've heard.

Anyway, there was this guy,

This big guy.

And he had long blond hair.

Long blond hair?

Yeah, and...

His name was Dorn.

He likes the girls at Wraith's bar.

He's from out of town, so

he doesn't come around often.

But yesterday I saw him there.

Last time I saw him was two years ago.

When you were trying

to take down Carlo Diaz.

What time have you seen him yesterday?

- Around happy hour.

- Great time to go.

Appetizers are half off.

Okay.

You can stay here tonight.

We have a couch over there.

And Kiki, take it, take it.

But tomorrow you start to earn it.

You can clean up around here,

you can answer the phone.

And there's a secretary desk,

which is there to use it.

- We have a secretary desk?

- It's a secretary desk.

Looks like you've got

my whole day planned out for me.

Get used to it.

Bossy!

Bossy!

Hi.

- So how the meeting's going?

- Huh?

The sex addict anonymous meetings.

Oh, good, okay.

I guess.

You know, addiction control

is difficult with...

- So many neighbours out there.

- Neighbours?

Cute Filipino girls.

And they're beyond cute.

And keeping what I'm up against,

I'd say that myself discipline

is pretty impressive

You're my hero, Charlie.

Yeah, I know.

Hey, It's him.

We can't chat him up too much

We need him to talk.

Don't worry.

- Hi, Charlie.

- Hey, Anton.

- It's Peyton.

- She's there.

- Hi, Charlie.

- Hey.

- Nice to see you again, Charlie.

- You too.

My neighbours, huh?

You no call me!

I was gonna call you,

We've been working a big case.

You want bang bang?!

Hey, It's my colleague.

Peyton, Miss. Divina.

Miss Divina, Peyton.

- Peyton.

- Miss. Divina.

Okay, don't.

We're looking for someone.

He's big, almost like him,
