Bennie!

I was just trying

to give us a head start.

- Uh.

- Thanks for opening

the door.

Go!

So you're taking me

back to Macau.

That's my plan.

You seem like such

a great travel buddy.

It's a shame I can't

fly back with you.

What do you mean?

Don't you need

a passport to fly?

How did you get

my lighter?

Better question is

how did I get your passport?

We need to be there

in two days.

Hey, hey, hey,

calm down a little.

Don't you know

there's an ancient

Chinese proverb that says

"out of every crisis

comes opportunity"?

The 745 will be arriving

on track eight.

Please show your ticket

before boarding.

Thank you.

Hey! Do you want

some pizza?

I'm ordering from

the U.S. embassy.

- Open up.

- I'm sorry,

I can't hear you

through this glass.

Can you hear me now?

Dude, you are stressed.

Let's take a beat.

Get you a massage.

Maybe grab

a Margarita.

You're wound up

tighter than a--

ow!

What was that for?

Stress relief.

You know, I'm actually

feeling a little--

hey, hey!

Excuse me.

Please, my friend,

low blood sugar.

It looks like Connor watts

has left the country

and bennie chan

is on his trail.

Bennie chan?

Eliminate them before

they get back to Macau.

Do not rest

until that phone

- is safely

in your hands.

- Understood.

Our men are tracking

him down as we speak.

If you have to use

Samantha, do it.

You gotta teach me

that two finger trick.

Where did you learn that?

Pro-wrestling?

Only teach men

of honor.

Here. Eat.

I'm a grown man,

i don't need you

to feed me.

A grown man

pays his debts.

Keep your energy up.

You know, I'm on

kind of a cleanse.

Eat it.

Eat it.

Mmm. Nice and crunchy,

what is it?

Goat testicle.

It's delicious.

Bennie, you gotta

try these.

Mm-mm.

I bet you can't eat

just two.

It's a righty.

How about those guys

who want to find me?

It's not something

i stole in Macau, bennie.

- It's something I saw.

- What did you see?

Tickets and passports,

please.

Let's go.

Jump!

No, you jump!

I'm not asking twice.

Jump!

I thought you weren't

asking twice.

Fine.

I jump, you fall!

Unbelievable.

My suit's filthy.

- Uh, shut up.

- Whatever.

Look, why don't we

do each other a favor,

cut our losses and

go our separate ways?

This means

nothing to you?

He's gonna kill

my goddaughter.

My family.

I'll take you back

to casino.

I'm sorry.

So you're working for them.

I'm police.

Honorable.

There's something else

you should know, your honor.

They don't want me because

i stole something from them.

They want me because

i saw them shoot somebody.

I woman died in my arms.

- Ester yee!

- Help me.

And you're telling me

that if I don't go back

with you then she dies.

And I'm telling you

if I go back with you,

I'm going to die.

They're gonna kill me.

I don't care.

I'm not loving

the attitude, bennie.

You're tough,

just like your father.

What do you know

about my father?

- Nothing?

- Leslie:
Nothing.

I know this may not

be what you want to hear,

but there's no evidence

of a murder at a Macau casino.

If there was

we'd know about it.

I think he's lying

to you, bennie.

I know.

What the hell's

he saying?

I don't know.

You must be kidding.

This the one?

Hmm?

Okay.

Visa or mastercard?

I don't know why

it's not working.

Money.

We use one of yours.

- Where's your wallet?

- I don't have it.

Why not?

Forgive me

for not being able

to grab my wallet

before being kidnapped.

How about that nice

watch of yours?

Not my watch.

No.

Well, how bad

do you want to get me

in Macau, bennie?

Money, money, money, okay?

You know, I think

I got you figured out.

Something tells me

you're either unhappily

married

or there's no one

waiting for you at home.

You don't have me

figured out.

No, I'm not married.

Shocking.

Women do not go

for that whole

constipated

Debbie downer look.

Lighten up.

Smile a little, huh?

Look, unzip

my left pocket.

There's something

important in there.

I promise.

What's that?

Right before

the woman died

she handed me

that phone.

It's okay, it's okay.

Oh, no. It's okay.

Shh, shh, shh.

Oh, I'm dying.

Here.

Take this.

Take this phone...

You big dumb

American stranger.

Here, take it. Uh.

Yeah, pretty much.

There's something

on there, bennie.

All you gotta do

is charge it.

Maybe you can trade it

for your goddaughter.

Enough.

You will say anything

to get away.

I could have escaped

already if I wanted.

Sayonara, bennie!

Remember to smile!

Stupid.

Ah!

That's more like it.

Whoo!

Come on, come on.

No!

Come on, man.

Come on!

No, no, no, no!

How about this?

Keep pushing!

2012, my foot!

Harder!

Come on, ah!

It says still

have a half tank.

No big deal.

I saw a gas station

200 miles back.

Get out of the car.

Come on!

We walk.

Ugh.

Here, come.

What does that mean?

What?

Which foot?

Jesus.

Short cut.

- Can't a girl

catch her breath?

- Whatever.

What's the chance

they'd settle

for you bringing back

some other white guy?

I mean, we all look alike.

Shut up.

Where's this

the shortcut to exactly?

Shut up, Connor.

I think the kid's hurt.

- Let's check on him.

- Yeah.

Are you--

are you okay?

Do you need help?

- Water.

- Bye-bye, bennie!

- Hey!

-

get off!

Come on!

Bennie!

Go, go, go, go!

Oh! Shoot!

Oh, ho-ho.

Ow, my balls,

my balls! Ow...

Hey, hey, hey!

Ooh, wow.

You guys strong.

You tell him, bennie.

No retreat!

No surrender!

Hit him in the ding ding.

What's that?

I don't get it.

You just got

your ass kicked

and they're cheering.

I fought with honor.

You head-butted

his balls.

Oh, thank you.

I think he wants us

to have a drink with him.

No, we got to go.

Bennie, we can't be rude.

One drink.

- One?

- One.

All right, guys,

who knows some good

Mongolian drinking games?

Drink up, drink up!

How do you do that?

- To the air!

- To the air!

- To the ground!

- To the ground!

- To the homies!

- To the homies!

Hooray!

All:
Hooray!

I never would have

figured you

for an Adele fan.

"Rolling in the deep"

is a classic.

Thanks for stepping in

to fight the Mongolian

stomper today.

I know you weren't

fighting for me, per se,

but, still,

you're a man

with a code

and I respect that.

I'm willing to die

for my loved ones.

Without people

to die for,

no reason to live.

Yeah, but there's

no reason for life

if you don't take time

to enjoy it.

You're too caught up

in your job.

You gotta get out there

and meet some friends,

take a pilates class,

have some fun.

You like that girl tonight?

She liked you.

Why didn't you talk to her?

She didn't even notice me.

When was the last time

you connected with a lady?

My fiance,

nine years ago.

You never told me

you were married.

We not marry.

She left me.

Oh, I'm sorry.

What happened?

Victor wong have her.

The matador.

He killed my partner.

I watch him die.

After that...

My life

became revenge.

I let everything

it slip away.
