The Man Page #2
- Pardon me?
- There's your taste.
- That's my taste?
Wait for our call.
Hey!
What?
He's got a gun.
No no, this is not...
No no no, it's not my gun.
It's the man that
was sitting here he j... he just left.
Oh oh!
He's got a gun, man!
It's going back in the bag.
Back in the bag.
- Drop the gun!
- Ah!
- Drop the gun! Now!
- Yes.
- Yes, the gun's going down.
- Drop it!
The gun is going down.
Gun is down.
- Gun is down.
- Just shut up.
All right. Ah!
You picked the wrong day to pull
a stick-up, dickwad.
It's not my gun.
Some guy gave it to me.
- What guy?
- Some guy. He gave me a bag,
- and he said, "Taste it. Taste it."
- He said what?
- Something about a taste.
- Tell me what he said,
exactly word for word
what he said.
He said, "That's your taste,"
but there was nothing to taste,
just a phone and a gun.
Look, I just went in for a cof...
- Oh sh*t. They think you're me.
- They think I'm black?
No, they don't think
you're... A.T.F.
You're coming with me.
What? I have done
nothing wrong!
- Well, Simon?
- It's coming.
All right, I got him.
"Fiddler, Andy.
Milwaukee, Wisconsin."
He's not federal, he's not
local, no law enforcement.
- No sheet. He's clean.
- Yeah, he's too clean.
- Screw him.
- No, wait a minute.
"Istanbul, Turkey.
Customs.
- Trafficking."
- Turkey? He do any time?
- Interpol shows an outstanding warrant.
- He got away from the Turks?
No sh*t. This guy's gotta be
smarter than he looks, huh?
Well, he can't be
any dumber than he looks.
So what's this guy
look like?
Well, he, uh...
he had very good teeth.
- What does he look like?
- He looks good. He looks good.
He had a very nice face,
very handsome face.
He was a very
attractive man.
N... not to me.
Uh, I mean, I am married
to a woman.
And even if I wasn't married,
I don't mean that kind of attractive.
Personally,
- he was not attractive to me.
- Describe him to me.
Short hair.
Short hair
which made his head
look smaller than it actually is,
and I only mention that because I've
been told my head is somewhat large,
and when I looked over at his,
it's like... you know when you look
through binoculars the wrong
way, it-it-it looks...
That's you.
Answer it!
Hello.
- Turk.
- Just a moment, please.
- Can you believe this?
- He wants to talk to the Turk.
- That's you.
- That's me?
- That's you.
- I'm the Turk?
Look at you.
This is the Turk.
Okay, listen, Turk.
When this phone rings, you answer it.
- You understand?
- Yes, I answer it.
- You and you alone. Are we clear?
- Me and me alone, right.
Great. Now listen, you put
on the northwest corner of Fort
and Woodward in five minutes.
- Hello.
- So what did he say?
Something about a package
and a trash can.
Look, I have nothing to do
with this. I'm here for a convention.
I don't give a sh*t.
Now what trash can?
Fort and Woodward.
Whoa!
Take this package,
put it in that trash can,
and you can go.
I should point out
to you, sir,
that I am taking
a mental picture of you
just in case there's...
any... trouble.
Hey, you know what?
Th-this... this is not for you.
Who's it for?
Well, it's... it's,
uh, for somebody else.
- Who?
- Just someone.
- Someone you don't know.
- Try me.
No, I'm not trying you.
This is not garbage, okay?
This is business,
so just please
don't touch it.
All right,
give me the bag.
- Give me the bag.
- Oh, Jesus.
It's not your bag.
See what he's doing?
- He took my bag.
- Who is this guy?
- This bag is mine! It's not his.
- Damn!
Okay okay.
What is the matter with you?
- Just let me go. All right.
- Get up. Get up!
- Get in the car. Get in the car!
- I think we should...
We should look
for another can.
What the hell is
the matter with you?
I ask you to do one thing,
and you screw it up.
- Hello.
- What the hell's the matter with you?
I ask you to do one thing,
and you screw it up.
Yes, well, this was
not planned well.
No no, listen, Turk.
You know what?
You just bring the package
to First and Bagley
and wait there.
So what did he say now?
Hey, get back here!
Excuse me.
Now you pay.
Get off my car!
Get down! Oh man,
he's got a gun! Ah!
Ouch!
Ouch! Ouch!
Ow! Oh! Ow!
Oh, boy! Oh!
Ah! Ah!
Ow ow ow ow!
9-1-1.
What's your emergency?
- Yes, hello, I've been shot.
- Can you give me a location?
- I don't know. Downtown.
- Where downtown, sir?
A man in a black car
kidnapped me.
Do you have
a license plate number?
Yes, just give me
a second.
"347DNB." Hurry.
I just called 9-1-1,
- and you are in serious trouble.
- Get up.
- You shot me.
- I grazed you.
Well, that's still
shooting me!
- Watch your ass.
- Ow ow ow ow!
You could have
killed me back there.
If I wanted to kill you,
you'd be dead.
I wanted to graze you, you're grazed.
It was a training bullet.
Well, I'm bleeding, although you might
call it "training blood."
Here, use this.
Taco sauce?
Yes, it's a natural
antiseptic.
Sprinkle some of that on your ass
so you don't get an infection.
Yeah, well, I don't even
wanna know how you discovered that.
So what, you keep
this in your glove compartment and just
splash it on a salami sandwich
and then splash some on your behind?
Use it or don't use it.
It's your ass.
You got any guacamole in there?
I hear it makes a great cold compress.
- Just put it back!
- All right, I'll use it. I'll use it.
Don't you have
traffic to look at?
Oh, sh*t.
Get out of the vehicle
with your hands in the air!
Get out of the car
and show me your hands!
Turn around!
Hands on your head!
- No no no no no, I'm not with him.
- Your hands!
I don't know him!
He just...
he... he...
he kidnapped me.
He took me
against my will.
He... look. You see?
He wanted to put
taco sauce on my butt.
The guy is nuts.
Nuts.
- Hands!
- Run my plates!
You! Back in the car.
- Your hands!
- You wanna see my hands?
Here.
Federal agent.
Run my plates!
- The car is federal, sir. A.T.F.
- That's right.
Federal agent.
Federal prisoner.
Back in the car!
You are interfering
with a federal investigation.
Move your asses!
That was fun.
Give this to him
and walk away.
Hey. If you try
to run this time,
I'm gonna put a bullet
in part of the ass you really need.
Ooh-ooh! Oh!
So you like the merch?
- The merch?
- The merch.
Well, you know,
there are days
that I like it
and days that I don't.
It depends.
I'm on the fence.
- Do you like the merchandise, Turk?
- Yes, I do...
like the merchandise.
I, uh...
thanks for asking.
So there's gonna be
20 grand in there, right?
In the bag.
Come on.
Good.
Good first step.
We'll be in touch.
And, uh,
one more thing, Turk...
No more fruitcake
stuff, okay?
- Sure.
- Good. Goodbye.
Get in the car.
- Why?
- I'm not done with you yet.
- You said I was done.
- I lied. I do that.
- Now get up. Get in the car.
- No.
