The Condemned 2: Desert Prey

---

1

Welcome, everyone!

Tonight,

I have something very special.

For years,

I have entertained all of you.

- Have I not?

- Yes.

And some of you,

I have made very rich.

Hell, yeah.

Some have made me

a little richer.

- Time to place your bets.

- Yeah.

The videos.

What do you think you are doing?

It was my idea.

You will not make a move

unless I say.

Understood?

Then let's begin.

Yeah!

God, I hate this place.

I'm freezing my balls off

out here.

Don't worry about the cold,

worry about the snakes.

Great, I hate snakes.

Full gear, boss?

Yeah.

All right, listen up, guys.

We're on the clock.

Harrigan, how far?

Right, just over

this ridge line,

we got about two hours' slot.

Hey, Michaels, do everybody a favor

and don't shoot yourself this time.

Check your comms.

Cooper, what're you doing?

No incendiaries, not necessary.

Oh, come on.

How about a smoke, boss?

Everyone likes a little smoke.

We do this fast.

Get the package, get out.

Simple snatch-and-grab.

Target is Cyrus Merrick, 61,

wanted for extortion,

illegal gambling,

attempted murder...

The list goes on.

What's the bounty?

You know what it is.

Half a million.

Deadly force is not

an option, boys.

If we kill him,

we don't get paid.

So, aim for the knees.

Got it?

Yeah.

Let's grab that payday.

Once I inject the drug,

we will start the clock.

Yeah! I have pulled these two

homeless men off the streets.

No one knows they're here,

and no one will ever miss them.

Lange, you're point.

Let's move out

Copy.

Cooper, Michaels, with me.

Harrigan, Lange,

to the right. Travis,

get up on top of this truck

and provide some cover.

On me.

Bargain is 1,000.

Which one will die first?

And how long will it take?

Hey, what you doing?

Hey, stop it.

Hey, there's not supposed to

be any operations right now.

Would you get

get out of that thing.

Don't kill them.

The legs. Aim for the legs.

Oh, sh*t.

Let's go.

Come on,

let him die, let him die.

Bail enforcement. Everybody on the ground,

hands behind your backs.

Get the laptop,

wipe the hard drives and meet me outside.

Cyrus Merrick, you are wanted

for illegal gambling, extortion

and attempted murder.

You're coming with us.

F*** you.

11 o'clock!

It's over, Cyrus.

Come with us, and make it easy on yourself.

Easy? Nothing in this life

is easy, bounty hunter.

What have you done, Will?

How are we going to explain

this to the cops?

I understand

a deal has been struck

between the defendant

and the prosecution.

Yes, Your Honor.

Mr. Tanner has changed his plea to guilty.

Will Tanner.

You've been found guilty

of involuntary manslaughter

and are hereby sentenced

to two years suspended

and five years' probation

to commence

at the end of your suspended

sentence period.

Mr. Tanner,

I don't like bounty hunters.

We have police for a reason.

Trained professionals whose job

it is to go after the bad guys,

not gun-toting cowboys.

You so much as spit

on my sidewalk,

and I will happily

throw your ass

in prison for

the full two years.

Am I clear?

Yes, Your Honor.

I don't want to see you

in here again.

I am done with that life,

Your Honor.

We are adjourned.

Dad. Hey, Dad!

Hey, Dad.

Will?

Yeah, hand me a 3/16.

So, they didn't lock

you up after all, huh?

No, I took a plea.

You took a plea.

You gave up.

I killed a man, Dad.

He was a criminal. Piece of sh*t murderer.

You could've beat that.

Yeah. If I keep

my nose clean,

I don't have to do any time.

I got off easy.

Easy?

Easy?

Yeah, you got off easy.

What about the family business?

It took me 30 years to build it.

You and that band of idiots,

took you 10 minutes to tear it down.

I'm sorry.

Sorry?

Sorry ain't gonna give

me back my reputation, boy.

Listen, Dad, I came here to tell

you that I can't do this anymore.

I'm out, Dad.

You came here

to tell me you're out?

I give my boy

the family business,

and he just pisses it away.

Yeah, I should have

known better.

- Ah, here we go.

- Thanks, Pop.

Got it?

Yeah.

You know, Dad,

all I want in life is peace and quiet.

Just... No guns,

no fugitives.

Right, right, right.

You never had

what it takes, Will.

Too soft.

Too much like your mother.

God, I miss that woman.

Every goddamn day.

Hey, Danni.

So you got something for me.

She's not pretty,

but she does the job.

Or has done, right?

Yeah, I got it.

Sorry the pay's not better.

Tough times, you know?

Yeah. Tell me about it.

So, this place still your dad's?

I actually own it with him now.

Oh. Look at you.

All right, go ahead

and check her out.

All right.

She capable of towing anything?

You're just gonna have to

find out for yourself.

Fair enough.

Oh.

Not too shabby, right?

Ah, you know what, Danni?

I think she'll work just fine.

I am going to put you on

top of the overtime list.

I don't know what to say.

Thanks, Danni.

I appreciate it.

No problem.

So, uh, Danni,

I'll wait for your call.

Will, come in.

Hey, Danni, go ahead.

We got a breakdown

on the Interstate.

Go to bunker 40.

About 10 minutes off, Danni.

Call for a tow?

Will...

Michaels?

How you been, man?

I'm good.

Well, I'm stuck in the middle of nowhere,

but good.

So, what's going on?

Ah. It just died on me.

I'll tell you what,

do me a favor, jump in there,

turn it over for me

and I'll see what's up.

I think I see the problem.

Sit tight.

I'll be right back.

Go ahead and try it now.

Thought the battery was dead,

but one of the contacts

was loose.

You're good to go.

Thanks.

Look, I passed a little

cantina maybe a mile back.

Buy you a cold one

for old time's sake?

Are you kidding me? Let's do it.

I'll see you over there.

Thank you.

Mmm-hmm.

Check that out, Michaels.

- You see it?

- Just a drone.

Oh, they're everywhere

these days. They're kids.

Hey, you okay?

Yeah, yeah. No, I'm fine.

You don't look okay.

What's going on?

What the hell's going on?

I have to kill you, Will.

Stay down. Just stay down.

Stay down.

He's coming around here.

What the f*** you doing, man?

Why are you doing this?

I don't want to, I have to.

Or they'll kill me

and my sister.

Who's gonna kill your sister?

Who threatened you?

Who threatened your sister?

Talk to me.

Don't.

Don't do it. Stop!

Michaels. Michaels!

So, the victim, Ryan Michaels,

he didn't want to kill you,

but he was trying to kill you.

I know how it sounds, Officer.

But it was self-defense.

You can ask anybody in there.

Friends don't try to kill

each other for no reason.

Now, you've been convicted of manslaughter.

That right, Mr. Tanner?

That has nothing to do with this.

Answer the question.

Yeah.

I compared the story and

the waitress has video...

Okay.

Can you take her inside?

Am I being charged?

No.

Witnesses confirmed your story.

You're free to go.

For now.

Don't leave the state.

A man died here,

Mr. Tanner.

Someone's gotta pay for that.

- Yes, Officer.

- All right.

You can't stay out of trouble

for 10 goddamn minutes, can you?
