Sucker Punch Page #4

You can tell me. I am good listener.

Madame Gorski...

...please.

I know that look.

You think you're all alone,

and that no one can help you.

There is a way to fix anything.

Now...

...tell me what is wrong, child.

Okay.

Promise you can keep a secret?

- Yes.

Yes.

- Where the hell is she?

- I don't know.

We need your music.

You know what, forget it.

No, it's too late. Sweet Pea was right.

What are you talking about?

The three of us, we can...

I don't think we can do this.

I don't wanna do something stupid

that's gonna put you guys in danger.

I'm sorry.

Hey, we got this far, right?

I mean, that's something

not a lot of people could have done.

How bad can the High Roller be,

anyway?

Don't you girls have some work

you should be doing?

- You came to help us.

- No.

I came to keep you

from getting killed.

Thank you.

We don't have a lot of time.

If you're done with the pleasantries,

you got a dance to do.

Amber, radio.

What the hell are you doing?

You're gonna wanna watch this.

Turn off your mind

Relax and float downstream

It is not dying

It is not dying

Lay down all thought

Surrender to the void

It is shining

It is shining

Ladies, this is what's on

our dance card for tonight.

The bomb, code-named "Kitchen Knife,"

is on a hijacked train.

It is protected by a couple dozen

mechanized gunmen.

The idea is simple:

Take care of the gunmen,

deactivate the bomb, then steal it.

The code numbers for the bomb and the

jetpacks for your escape are in that duffel.

Got it.

Sweet Pea.

I'm glad you changed your mind.

Well, there you have it.

You know, for those who fight for it...

...life has a flavor the sheltered

will never know.

Oh, yeah. One last thing.

The bomb's timer is set to detonate

when it reaches the city.

So if I were you, I'd hurry!

Weapons hot, ladies.

Hot.

- Hot.

- Hot.

I've got a lock.

Good luck.

- We're down.

Copy that.

Warning:

Weapon will activate in four minutes,

Whoa!

Hurry, Amber.

We gotta get this thing out of here.

Whoa!

- Rocket, let's go.

Warning:

Weapon will activate in 25 seconds.

It's broke. It's not gonna work.

I'm on full burn. We'll go together.

It's not gonna carry the both of us.

- We have to try.

- Okay, we'll try.

But you've gotta promise me two things.

Rocket, let's go.

- The first thing is...

- Weapon will activate in 15 seconds.

...don't get mad about this.

About what?

This.

Rocket!

Weapon will activate in 10, nine...

...eight, seven, six...

...five-, four...

."three, two, one.

The second thing is...

...when you get home...

...when you get free...

...you tell Mom I love her.

- I'll tell her.

- Mom.

I promise.

Oh, my.

You, what did you do?

You simple, inbred idiot.

Sir, don't know what happened. I just...

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

Get her up. Get her up, CJ!

Yes. Yeah, look.

I want you to look at what you did.

Look at what you did, you b*tch!

Amber, sweetheart.

You've got Sweet Pea's slot

in tonight's show. Go get ready.

Go get ready.

Go!

Take her to the closet.

As for you...

...it's Showtime.

The High Roller is here.

I need you to focus for me.

Ah. Thank you.

Girls?

Can you just gather around for a second?

I wanna say a few words.

That's all right.

You can just finish getting her dressed.

Okay. There we go.

Very nice.

All right.

I try to give you all...

...a good life.

I try. I do.

And all I ask for in return is just for...

...respect...

...honesty.

You know... Oh, that's okay, Margaret.

A give-and-take relationship.

But it's come to my attention...

it's come to our attention...

...that a few bad eggs...

...led by one little egg in particular...

...have spit in the face

of that generosity...

...and are plotting against me.

Me.

Your father.

Your lover.

Your employer.

Plotting to take from me

my most precious possessions.

Your very selves.

Blue, what you doing?

- Hm?

- You got the information. You have won.

This little fantasy of freedom

is all they have.

No, no, no. No one's buying that,

honey. No one's buying that, Vera.

There is nothing you can do to me

that you haven't already done.

- Unh.

- You listen to me, you old whore.

It's too late to play the good guy.

It's far too late.

You're suddenly not aware

of what it is we do here?

I teach them to survive you.

- All right.

- I'm sorry! I didn't mean to say anything.

I'm sorry.

No, Blondie.

I didn't mean to.

He said everything would be okay.

Blue, this is a mistake.

Please don't do this, okay?

That's right.

Our dear Blondie came to us...

...desperately trying to help her sisters

off this most dangerous path.

At first, we didn't even believe her.

But after hearing who was involved,

frankly, it started to make sense.

- Right here?

Blue.

Uh-huh. "Map. Fire."

Looks like that chicken was counted

a little before it hatched.

Ain't that right, Amber?

You have anything to say? Anything?

Blue, we didn't... We were still...

You know what, sweetheart?

It's okay.

It's okay.

NO!

- Oh, my God!

Okay, calm down.

This will all be over soon

and we can get back to business as usual.

Blondie, I wanna thank you

for everything you've done.

I am so sorry.

The thing is, we hate snitches, so...

No!

Okay. Here.

I hate guns.

I hope everyone's learned

a valuable lesson here.

Especially you, Madame Gorski.

Get her out of here.

Let's get these bodies out of here, please.

And the rest of you, you got a show to do.

So go on, go get them, girls.

Make it count.

I've been thinking a lot...

...about all that money

you're gonna make me.

I've been thinking a lot about the

High Roller and his hands all over you.

I've been thinking about

all those people out there...

...just watching you

and lusting after you.

And you'd think that would

give me pleasure.

I mean, I'm in the business of pleasure.

But you know what

it makes me feel like?

I'm gonna be honest with you.

It makes me feel like I'm this little boy...

...sitting in the corner of the sandbox...

...while everybody

gets to play with my toys...

...but me.

So you know what I'm gonna do?

I'm gonna take my toys

and I'm gonna go home.

I'm going home now...

Oh, that's good! That's it.

Oh, is that it'?!

That's my little b*tch.

This what you like?

Come here!

What? No, no, no.

Come on. Come on!

Did you lose your fight? Huh?

No.

I just found it.

You'll never have me.

Ever.

Ever.
