Tentacle 8 Page #2
What did I do to you, Jeffery?
Tell me, what did I do to you?
Do you want to f*** my wife?
Do you want my hair?
Do you want my f***ing floor seats?
What?
Just tell me!
What the f*** did I ever do
to you, but be your friend?
Listen to me!
I've never lied to you.
I've stuck my neck out for you
more times than I can remember.
This isn't about you or me.
This is out of my hands.
Do you understand?!
Don't do this to me, Jeff.
Have Laura schedule lunch next week.
I've gotta go.
No.
I'll talk to you when I get back.
No.
Jeffery. Jeffery!
Damn it.
What are you looking at?
Watch the road!
Sorry I'm late.
It's been a sh*t day.
I'm gonna need a little
time to wind down some,
if that's okay.
Whatever you need.
Thank you.
No!
No. It'll just get me more worked up.
Bad day at the office?
I have something that'll
take you down nice and easy.
I don't get why
you can't f***ing smoke
in the lobby, but you can in your room.
No one cares if you die of cancer.
You just can't give it to anybody else.
I fired my investment guy.
Nothing good lasts forever.
You want another?
No. I'm ready.
I'm gonna go put something on,
freshen up a little.
Let's get high first.
Pour me a drink.
I'll be back in just a bit.
Don't close the door.
I want to watch you get undressed.
I said, don't close the door. I want -
Who the f*** are you?
My wife put you up to this?
Get the f*** out of here!
25 billion dollar acquisition.
You will receive a
generous severance package
safely hidden from disclosure, of course,
and then you're going to walk away.
Just lie back and enjoy it, right?
Are we going to cuddle afterwards?
F*** you!
You try to buy me off with a
couple 100 million dollars.
Add a zero to that and maybe it's a start.
I'll burn everything down
to the f***ing ground
before I let that happen.
You've got
nothing left to burn, Mr. Towne.
I've got enough.
Money, homes,
friends, family, the company?
It isn't real. It's an illusion.
Just like your security, it's a concept,
a false one that you
We're sorry.
The number you have
reached is not in service.
Please check the number
or try your call again.
This is a recording.
Nazi uniform would
have a classier touch.
Nobody's gonna buy this,
whatever you want to call it.
The truth is going to come out.
Truth is
irrelevant, Mr. Towne.
Getting to the truth strains the
muscles and fatigues the brain.
No one likes that.
By the time the truth comes out,
no one will remember and no one will care.
Think about your future,
your children's future,
their children's future.
You can't win,
but you can be rich.
He's just
leaving the hotel now.
Yes, everything went as planned.
Hey, you
got something for me?
Come on, man, give me some money.
Get the f*** out of here! Cock sucker
Cock sucker!
Get out of here.
F***er! Go find a hole!
How long have you been back?
Just over a week.
I was at my sisters for a few days.
and apologized months in advance
for missing Thanksgiving.
I do it every year.
Maybe next year you won't have to.
Is that an invitation?
That depends, did you
actually cook the turkey and pie?
No. Believe
me, you wouldn't want that.
You've got a year to learn
how to use your oven.
How close are you with your sister?
She's my sister,
let's just put it that way.
She's just amazing, an
amazing little girl.
She had her first piano
recital at school this week.
I miss her already.
Out of the
country 300 days a years
and on call 24/7, I wouldn't
do that to somebody.
I've been on my own too long.
You never know
what you're capable of,
considering given the right circumstances.
I'm not pining away
for a life I could have had.
This is it for me.
I got you something.
Now what?
Just open it.
It's not work.
I found it in a little
shop outside of Hamburg.
Some of the pages are
loose from the binding,
but it's an original first edition.
Wow!
This is, this is really hard to find.
I don't know what to say.
It's one of the few
I never found.
Well just try to throw
or J.K. Rowling next time, okay?
Make my life a little easier.
Thank you.
Come on.
Let's get out of here.
We can get a hotel next to the airport.
I thought we were going to my place.
I can't stay.
I've got a flight in
to Islamabad.
Tomorrow?
Tonight.
I don't know why you keep doing it.
You know you don't make a difference.
I've got an informant.
A 19-year-old kid with a 12-week-old baby
and a wife who's been raped
twice by military guards
looking for dissidence.
Brother beaten senseless
and tortured for months
before they found his body in the road
covered in a pile of trash.
I matter to him.
The GPS coordinates on
I manipulated it.
The real coordinates have been uploaded
to a data mining computer in Baltimore.
They get patched into F-18's,
Black Hawks, aircraft carriers
without ever knowing the real coordinates.
Why would you do that?
I hide places we don't
want anyone to know exists.
The right hand doesn't know
what the left hand is doing.
That's how they want it.
I know you care.
Maybe a little too much.
Thank you for telling me,
but I'm still going.
Ray, I don't know what
but obviously you're upset.
Before this, I was
stationed in South Asia,
intercepting Russian
military communications,
trip movements in the region.
There was a local agent we gave intel to.
I met him weekly in a small tea shop
just outside of Cabo.
He must have been 15, 16 years old.
considering he had a 3rd-grade education.
He carried an AK-47 over his shoulder,
size of my shoe in his hand.
My, I was never sure,
but he understood what
it was I was saying.
head and shook my hand
when we were done.
I prayed that the intel
I gave him was correct,
I'd get to see him again the next week.
He's a grown man by now.
Probably has a family of his own.
I wonder if he still
remembers that tea shop,
Morista's in the afternoons.
That small town used to be
where the crater is now.
I wonder if he's hiding
out in the same caves,
attending the same council
meetings you're gonna put those
3 time war heads in to.
I thought I was important to him too.
But I wasn't.
Gators bittin' yet?
is on board.
We promised her additional
security if they wanted it.
Memory cards being programmed now
will be shipped to DBS next month.
All right.
Where are they with the missing files?
451 personell files unrecovered.
Covert and top security
clearances are in containment
until we determine that they're secure.
