The Gunman Page #4

Am I missing anything?

Why is everyone so tense? I mean...

if you think of the coincidence

of all of this, you should not be tense.

A dear and old friend arrives in town

just as we are formalizing

the adoption of our first child.

- I think it's a reason enough to...

- Stop.

- Sit down.

- You're humiliating me.

No, the way you stared at him

humiliates you.

Enough. That's enough.

Proud of yourself?

Annie!

Annie! Annie, please.

- Just wait one second.

- What? What?

- What are you doing here?

- I thought you knew.

That you were here in Barcelona?

That you were coming to dinner?

I'm sorry.

It's easy to say now, isn't it, James?

Just tell Felix if he still wants to

give me the information that he got,

I'll be at 93 Calle Hercules,

apartment 4D.

- You moved back to London?

- Yeah.

But I had been in DRC,

where I spent the past year,

helping out, following your lead.

Don't.

You come here and you want

to talk about eight years ago.

Really, Jim, what did you think

was gonna happen?

You coming here?

I came back here 'cause somebody's

trying to kill me, and it's got to do

with what happened that made me

have to leave in the first place.

And what was that, Jim?

Of course.

You never told me

about what you did then,

so why would you start now?

I had to leave. I had no choice.

And I don't need an explanation.

I really don't.

We are different people now.

I'm trying to be.

What do you see in him?

If a firefighter saves you from a fire,

there is a debt.

Felix was there for me

when you disappeared.

He did everything

he could to protect me.

I've tried to pay the debt

with marriage.

I'm still paying,

and he's still collecting.

Felix asked me to come.

He is apologetic for what happened,

and he seems to think the information

he has for you is important.

This is the address

of our home in the country.

Join us for lunch tomorrow at 2:00?

Yeah.

Peek-a-boo!

Romeo. Romeo. Romeo.

Annie said you wanted to see me.

Let's go inside.

It took me a few phone calls, but I managed

to dig up some interesting stuff.

Yeah, it seems you may be right.

There is something going on in connection

with what we did back then.

What is that?

- Do you wanna get that?

- No, no, no, no.

I think it's more important

we finish our conversation.

Do you... Are you hungry?

Do you wanna eat something?

Mercedez, please bring something to eat.

- No, I'm not hungry.

- Okay.

Stop. Stop.

- Will you stop, please? Come on...

- Will Annie be joining us?

Annie... Annie is riding,

always with her horses.

What were we talking about?

Yes, for you to be a target,

you must have more information

than just your memory, right, Jim?

What do you keep? A diary?

Do you keep a diary?

A diary of the horror we created?

With the blood of all these...

women and grandpas and all

those baby ones, little ones,

floating in the river beside their toys.

And you keep a diary of that?

We have to look forward, Jim.

Looking back, all we're doing

is f***ing and killing like animals.

And you know a lot about that,

especially about f***ing and killing.

- I'm going to get a shower.

- Yeah, you better get a shower.

Right, Jim?

You asked me here

to give me some information,

- so give me the f***ing information.

- Here's the information, right here.

It appears your old friends and me

are on a congressional subpoena list.

It shouldn't be long before we have

Interpol on our backs.

"Into events in Kinshasa,

Democratic Republic of Congo in 2006."

Well, that was only a matter of time.

I see Cox is on the list.

What about Reed and Bryson?

Well, that's an interesting part

of the story.

I found obituaries

for both Reed and Bryson.

Of the three shooters,

you're the only one left.

What are you looking at?

Oh. Do you remember Stan Edgerton?

- Who?

- My friend Stanley. You met him.

No, I don't recall.

He worked with the company

with Cox and I before Congo.

We did joint taskforce in Liberia.

He happened to be in Barcelona.

And I hope you don't mind,

I gave him your address.

He's gonna come out here

and we're gonna go hunting from here.

Hunting? For what?

Whatever's in season.

I just need to shoot something.

- They should be here any minute now.

- But when are they...

But who...

They? Who are they?

They, Stan and a couple of U.S. Marines

from the embassy who had a day off

and wanted to shoot something, too.

No. I can't believe it.

You all right?

Okay.

Fine.

Are you trying to say something?

- You're saying what?

- We have to go. It's all f***ed now.

- I should use the bathroom. Do you mind?

- Why would I mind?

I'm feeling the balance might be lost.

Where is it, now? Okay.

F***.

What did you tell 'em? That my friends

were coming with a car full of guns?

What did you think would happen

when you asked me to get information?

You cannot take her.

She's mine. She's my wife.

Ask her, who was there for her?

Why did you come back

into our lives, Jim? Why?

Get up. Move. Come on.

- I can't let you take her away from me.

- Which way?

- Annie?

- What's going on?

- Annie!

- She's my wife. She's my wife.

Get dressed. Get dressed.

You gotta get dressed, darling.

Felix? What happened to your face?

- Annie, no!

- What did you do to him?

Get your clothes on, now.

Get your clothes on.

Yes, get dressed.

For Christ's sake, get dressed.

Will someone please tell me

what the f*** is going on?

He set me up,

but he's too drunk to understand

- they're gonna try to kill all of us.

- Kill?

They were going to take him

when he left the house,

but he f***ed it all up for hunting.

There's nobody coming, Felix,

no hunting party.

How many are there? How many? How many?

What difference does it make now, Jim?

What difference does it make?

Felix, what did you do? What did you do?

Annie, get down!

Listen, we are going to be attacked.

I gotta get us out of here.

- Just do what I say. Do you understand?

- Where are you? Where are you?

- Just do what I say.

- Jim. Annie.

Wasn't this what you both always wanted?

I mean, you made it.

You're finally back together.

You may well have children together.

That would be heaven.

But you were right...

- Felix, we gotta go.

- Hell. Hell don't forget us.

- It's in our hands.

- Okay, okay, we'll do all that later.

- It's on our hands, James.

- Stop, Felix! We've gotta go!

You're never gonna be happy, Jim.

- Stay down.

- And I am sorry to tell you now.

This hell we created

is gonna be with you always!

- We will never be able to leave this life.

- Get down.

- Or do you think you can escape it?

- Felix, get down! Get down!

Let the real hunt begin!

F*** it.

To happiness.

To your goddamn f***ing happiness.

Felix, don't!

Felix!

Felix. Felix.

Annie, he's gone.

There's nothing you can do for him.

They're gonna come for us.

We've gotta go.

Now.

Bravo Team to leader. We're moving in.

Stay close.

Stay calm. Calm.

Stay there. Stay there.

Annie, do you have another car? Sh*t.
