and the only way you gonna walk out of this is...

if we find him, before he finds you.

This case might be the only thing

keeping you alive right now.

Maybe.

Walking out the door, doesn't mean it's over.

- Yeah, it is.

Hello?

- I don't like it, when people hang up on me.

I already told you, I... I don't know nothing.

Where is your friend with the case, Eddie?

Eddie...

Stitch! - Stitch, no.

It's gonna be ok.

See you soon.

It's Anna.

I can't find Eddie.

We're running out of time.

Where are we?

The old man didn't know much...

and didn't last long.

So I'm sure, the courier will be properly motivated.

Also there's a girl with him.

Who is she?

- She's connected to the old man.

Get rid of the girl...

that should motivate him a bit more.

Listen to me, if we miss the deadline

I want you take the boy.

Where?

- Far away.

For how long?

- Until I show up, you understand?

I understand.

- Dad?

When we go home?

- Soon enough.

Where'd you get this?

That is ...

That's from an old roller coaster.

Let me guess.

Running into a burning building

to save a helpless girl.

Was a long time ago.

Gas pipe exploded below my apartment...

I... I... actually don't... don't remember.

You're lucky to be alive.

Am I...

Stitch found me.

Got me on my feet...

I guess, if there was luck, it was him.

What's going on?

We have 30 seconds...

- Who are they? - Hurry up!

Let's go!

- They will kill you.

Hurry up.

- Yeah.

We go through that door.

Up the stairs.

Hurry up.

What' is happening?

It was not about him, wasn't it?

We are just in the way.

Why did you take that?

Why didn't you give it to him?

Stop! Talk to me!

They've seen your face

and they know, who you are.

You understand that?

I can't protect you anymore.

You should stay.

Where do you think you're doing?

I swore to never do this again.

Can we?

We lost him.

Who is this guy?

All we know is that the old man

found him ...

after he been beaten

and left for dead.

He didn't know more than that. But don't worry,

the need for revenge is too strong ...

for him to play it safe.

He will expose himself soon.

Where's the Russian?

- Still missing.

Okay, I need to know what my weakness is,

before it's too late

Dad?

- Not now, Stanton, god dammit, I'm busy.

They gave me three days to deliiver this

f***ing case to Evil Sivle.

said they can leave,

if I would deliver it on time.

But Evil Sivle is the last face you ever see.

I am dead man either way,

you don't do something.

I want you to go back out there

and we will protect you.

You only use me as bait.

What are you doing here, Anna?

Do I know you?

- No, but I know you!

I thought you got out of all that sh*t.

It's a tough thing about choices,

you can make a thousand right ones ...

but it only takes one wrong one and you're f***ed.

Did you lose the keys?

If you wanna find Evil Sivle, you got to

understand where he came from.

Maxwell get him when he was thirteenth years old,

loved him like a son ...

taught him everything he do.

- How do you know all this?

Because I have eyes and ears on the street.

I kept him well informed.

So why did paradise crumble?

- A woman. Evil fell in love.

But she didn't want a part of the business anymore.

Especially after she got pregnant.

And Evil saw the boy... everything changed.

He tried to get out it, but Maxwell

saw it as the ultimate betrayal.

So Maxwell dropped the contract, had Evil's son and wife killed...

- But he made a mistake.

He didn't kill Evil...

- Evil went insane.

I mean... He wiped everybody out,

from the top to the bottom.

But you've already been

thinking about choices, haven't you?

probably been screaming in the back of your head

since you first met him.

Am I right?

But I can help you with that choice.

I can offer you the chance to get out

of this life once and for all.

You are in grave danger.

Both of you.

All you gonna do is keep in touch ...

tell me what he finds, can we way as...

If you help me, I promise

tomorrow you have your life back ...

free!

F*** you!

Tell me, what's going down in three days?

- He's goin' to finish what he started.

He'll wipe out everybody, who sold him out.

Including me... and the Capos.

And I hear those f***ers,

and people deliver.

Easy! - Easy!

I am really... I'm sorry!

You're alright?

- Yeah.

Let's go, we're gonna find the Capos.

You pick up the signal?

Why are you doing this?

It's not gonna bring him back, you know.

No, but it'll make it right.

- How, lose everything?

Pick up the phone.

Agent Lispy

F***! It's not the real case.

It's been wired.

Jesus! - Do we get it?

Press playback.

We got the case.

- Who does he work for?

We don't know yet.

Vegas.

- What's in Vegas?

Let's go.

He wants to play, we play.

- You should polish the silver ...

sounds like we're entertaining tonight.

- We go home and have some fun.

With the garlic press?

- Uh, love it.

He took the bait, hook, line and sinker

- Good.

Stanton, play something else, you know

I hate that piece.

I need a taxi to the 'Lucky 7'.

Yeah, right away.

In Laurel, Mississippi?

If I'm not back by morning,

you take the Dakota and get to that address.

It's where I sent Stitche's family.

- What?

I don't know what's gonna happen.

But I'll find you, when it's over.

No.

- That is the safest place for you, Anna.

Why are you doing this?

Just stop!

He's gone.

Please.

You have the address.

You can't be here.

You're really persistent.

- Give me your location and ...

I'll get you both out.

- Yes?

How?

- I'll take.

What is your location?

- Las Vegas.

The Lucky 7.

- Where is he headed?

Names, addresses, anything?

- He has a phonebook, I can check.

Don't let us down,

these are very dangerous people.

He's with the FBI.

He said they could help.

Don't you see?

It's a win-win here.

A chance.

To start something new.

Something away from all this.

Isn't that what we gotta find?

Wait!... Wait!

Here he is.

- Welcome back.

So you wanna find Evil Sivle.

- We take you to him.

Just promise to do something for us.

When you see him in hell,

tell him we send our regards.

That was for the briefcase

back in New Orleans.

Now that you know that up until the second century,

torture was primarily used on slaves?

See, they believed ...

that a slave can only tell the truth,

it was extracted from him.

But over time, torture evolved to everybody.

Became a means, for the good,

to purge earth of evil.

My wife is a bit of a romantic...

but I'm more practical, wouldn't you say?

Yeah.

The way I see it, the gateway

to understanding is through pain ...

and we know that gate, boy!

Go ahead.

Five seconds.

Ten seconds.

That's your death reflex kickin' in.

The burn is by adrenaline release

from your heart rate rising.

You see, your mind believes you're drowning,

death is taking possession of you.

But that's just your mind

f***ing with you..

The pain needs the brain truth,

a clouded mind lies.
