Takers
You look like sh*t, man.
I'm all right.
That right there?
That is the best homework assignment
the city ever came up with.
Yeah. Me and the kid start this weekend.
That is, of course, unless Amanda botches
everything up, like she always does.
I could have Monica give her a call.
They always got along pretty well.
You know, Eddie, I appreciate it,
but it's best if you stay out of it.
Yo, D'Mac, what's up?
Yeah, I'm interested. What do you got?
Haitians. Boyle Heights.
Yeah, I know the place.
Ya yo changing hands.
this low-level sh*t?
Yeah, let's go.
- Are we good?
Which one of you gentlemen
is gonna sign for this?
Nice suit.
I heard there was a problem with the toilet?
All right, fellas.
We got less than one hour. Let's go.
Move.
- Police, freeze!
- Sh*t!
- Get him!
- On the floor, God damn it!
Stop!
Don't move!
- You got him?
- He got away.
- What?
- He got away!
Sh*t!
Not a word, Welles. Not a goddamn word!
Son of a b*tch!
Now.
What the...
Chief. We got a problem with the elevators.
- Get down!
- And stay down!
Now that I have your attention,
get on the floor, right now!
- Take it easy, take it easy.
- Everyone!
- You, too, come on!
- Get down!
Everything's reading "Malfunction."
- The hell is this?
- I don't know.
We're not here to hurt you!
You stay calm, you go home for dinner,
you understand me?
Don't look at me.
Nobody move! And get down on the floor!
Shut up!
We got a naughty one here.
Jesus! FedCal, the bank.
All right, that's it, bad girl.
Now we get to go make a phone call.
Forty-five!
- News 14 hotline.
- Tell them there's a robbery in progress.
I'm from the FedCal Bank, downtown LA.
There's a robbery in progress.
- Are they still in the bank?
- They're still...
Are they...
Come on, man, let's get out of here.
Let's go!
Jump!
Get down!
Hey, guys, a bank robbery.
We're headed downtown.
Let's go, now!
- I got the back!
- I'm on it!
They left the bank using the stairs!
All exits are covered.
Look, on the roof, a guard! Land it!
- We're not cleared for this.
- We're first on the scene. Land us, now.
Let's go!
Get the camera out.
Are you okay?
- No!
- Get on the ground!
Get on the ground!
Get out of the chopper now!
Take a seat next to your friends!
What a bunch of dummies! Good boy.
Nothing but glorified paparazzi!
Get us out of here!
There goes Channel 14 going the wrong way.
That's why they're in last place.
Come on, Rivers, you're a free man.
You're out of here.
Any vacant floors?
Yeah, 26 is under construction.
You got security cameras on that floor?
Not in the construction area.
Have forensics go over it.
You'll pick up prints
from half the damn city.
Do it anyway.
- You got it.
- Okay.
Went down pretty fast. We got a mixed crew.
Apparently, one of the guys
had some type of an accent.
- How much did they take?
- North of two million.
Some of the bills might be marked.
Who knows, maybe we'll get lucky.
So, they used C-4 to knock out the elevators.
Residue's being sent to the lab now.
Thanks. Automatic weapons,
precision timing.
Shape charges.
Degree of difficulty is off the charts.
They were hot sh*t, no doubt about that.
It'll make it that much sweeter
when we take them down.
Yeah.
What is it you want?
You Sergei?
Mikhail, from in the joint, sent me.
Okay.
Y'all having fun, huh?
Not so fast, my man.
Show me ID.
USA! USA! USA!
Think about it.
Cool down.
We... We have vodka
and take care of business, huh?
That's what I thought you'd say.
We've got some serious stacks now.
And I mean it's love, baby.
- Yeah, we did all right.
- All right, my ass.
and you, you don't seem too jazzed.
No, I'm good.
I'm good.
Listen, Dad called last night.
He wants us to come see him.
No. Hell, no, Jake.
I've been to see Dad in jail.
I've been to juvie.
I'm not going back. Not for you, not for Dad,
- not for anybody. Ever.
- Okay, okay.
He's got less than five.
So, when he gets out,
maybe we build him a house.
- Cool?
- Cool.
Gordon says you find anything marked,
burn it.
Sounds tight.
You just gonna leave your kid bro up there
with all that paper?
If he runs out with it, shoot him.
I will, too.
Remember the song?
A'ight.
I don't know what to tell you.
We're so... We're so busy. Look at this.
And if we get that empty space next door,
think about how amazing it's gonna be.
- What's this?
- Open it.
Oh, my God.
It's beautiful.
I think you're beautiful, too.
If you'll have me,
I wanna spend the rest of my life with you.
Cocky a**holes.
Tapes are ready.
All right, let's see what we got.
There's 20 elevators for the lobby.
Twelve for the lower floors,
eight for the uppers.
You can cross over at 22.
So, over the course of the day,
how many people on and off?
- Ten thousand, give or take.
- Sh*t.
Well, let's see who got off
on the construction floor.
It couldn't have been more
than a handful of people.
Well, it doesn't work that way.
These tapes are time-coded, not floor-coded.
All these people getting on and off
and we have no idea
what floor we're watching?
Yeah. I mean, that's how it works.
Come on.
This is some system you got here, Chief.
Most of the buildings in the city
are set up this way.
- Whoever set it up is an idiot.
- Hey, I don't need this!
All right, I'm down here trying to help.
Hey. Look, man,
he doesn't mean nothing by it, all right?
- Screw you.
Meds not working
or we just need to get you laid?
- What's the problem?
- Look at this.
It's a camera.
They knew the elevator was empty.
They knew the building.
They knew the whole system.
Yeah, must be a hundred hours here.
We don't know
what the hell we're looking for.
Not to piss on Grand Cayman,
but I think I can get you an additional
in the Dutch Antilles. I say why not?
Yeah, but the way the markets
keep jumping around, man,
another four, six weeks,
who knows what the rates'll be?
And have you seen
- Sh*t is bleak out there.
- "Bloomberg reports"? Are you kidding me?
Come on, college guys.
Let's not over-think it.
Yeah, come on.
Dutch Antilles wanna pay us more money.
- That's a no-brainer.
- I like the Dutch Antilles,
as long as the banks don't pack up
and take my money overnight.
Of course. 10% to the usual charities?
- Absolutely.
- Cool by me.
I chartered a jet.
It's taking off Van Nuys Airport tonight.
Anybody wants to come,
I got your private parking passes right here.
It'll be sweet.
Man, life's looking pretty good
from right here.
I'll let you know later.
Nice house. Cool view.
Great scotch.
You know, jacking that news chopper
had "A.J." written all over it.
How'd you get in my house?
Please.
They let you out early or what?
Good behavior. About a year early.
But I guess you guys kind of lost track, huh?
