The Man Page #7
S.W.C., that's "Suspect..."
"Suspect Who's Cooperating."
I know, I've been that.
It, uh, didn't
work out too well.
Uh, let me get this straight.
You sprung him from holding,
gave him half a million dollars,
then you let him go?
The guy's a salesman
from out of town.
Oh, really? You think
it was a coincidence
that he showed up
at exactly the right
time in the diner?
I don't believe in coincidence.
For all you know,
- he could be an undercover I.A. Agent.
- Did you ever check him for a wire?
I didn't have to. The guy was
scared shitless half the time.
I can't believe that you
of all people bought his story,
Mr. L-Don't-Trust-Nobody.
How'd you get
so stupid so fast?
Now they got you
tied to the heist,
your partner's murder
and your snitch.
Booty's dead.
Remember, this guy
is a stone killer,
if he senses anything wrong,
he'll toe-tag your ass.
I just need
to get a sound check.
- You want me to say something?
- Good, I got it.
- Good, I got it.
- I got it.
- I got it.
- Hey. Hey, I said I got it.
I don't think I can do this.
Just do this one thing
for us and you're done.
Okay, you know what?
You guys have got to stop saying that.
The guy helped
me set up a buy
that's gonna go
down any time now.
What I need from you
is an assault unit to back me up.
Forget it. I want your badge
and your gun. You're on suspension.
Bullshit.
Your badge
and your gun now!
- You're serious?
We got a dead agent on our hands
and I can't account for one damn thing
you've done
for the past 24 hours,
except lose a lot of money and make
best friends with the I.A. Agent
who's gonna
bust your ass.
And that look
does not scare me.
I am one inch away.
An inch too far, okay?
Gun and badge.
You're wrong.
The guy's at a convention
right now, giving a speech.
Really? Then who's
that standing behind you?
Guess who?
- What the hell are you doing here?
- I knew you were gonna ask.
I, uh, just
finished my speech,
and I had a little
time before my flight
and thought I would
just stop by and see how you're doing.
Chit-chat?
Is... is there some place
we can talk?
- Yeah?
- Avenue A, warehouse three, right now.
Don't forget the money.
Why don't we, um,
talk in my car? Come on.
In the car?
We're going to the car.
Over.
Mission one, vehicle
leaving Michigan and First.
Okay, I read you,
Air Support.
Stay above audible range
but don't lose them.
Uh, copy that.
So, where are we headed?
- Do you want to get a smoothie?
- We're going to see our old friends.
Oh. Well, I've got
a 5:
00 flight,so l... I don't know
whether I'll have time to...
- Hey, you wanted to chit-chat?
- Yes, I do.
- So, let's chit-chat.
- Okay, good.
- So, how you doing?
- Good.
You wired?
Yes. Yes, I am wired.
I'm, uh, you know,
white-knuckle flier,
l... I get
pre-flight anxiety.
So, I get... I get very anxious
before a flight.
I didn't think it showed.
- So, I guess you got your money.
- No, I didn't.
Did you call for backup?
Do I ever
called for backup?
No.
You think I'm dirty.
- You tell me.
- I ain't telling you sh*t,
- you I.A. Piece of crap.
- What?!
Thought you had me played, didn't you?
Feeding me all that bullshit
- this whole time.
- I've been feeding you bullshit?
That's right.
Bullshit!
Oh, now, you wait
just one minute, mister!
You shot me,
you dragged me all over town,
you used me to set up
your dirty deals.
Hey, I've got
news for you, homie,
I'm not your
b*tch anymore!
Now, I want the truth
and I want it now.
I think you're involved
and I think you killed Booty.
Aw, sh*t!
He just blew it.
- I killed Booty?
- I said, "I think you killed Booty."
How the hell
did you even know Booty was dead?
Exactly, how would I know?
I would not know. I wouldn't know,
so I could not be
more wrong on that point.
Let's do this, gentlemen.
- Mmm.
- Inside.
The target is stopped,
the deal's going down now.
They told me to get
a confession from you.
I know.
Shall we?
Down!
Shots fired,
repeat, shots fired!
Get me an assault team!
- Get out.
- We're gonna die. We're gonna die.
Hey hey!
Just calm down.
- We are not going to die.
- Oh!
- Trust me.
- Trust you.
There are the guns,
where's my money?
Let me ask you something.
Did he say I was his b*tch
or his dumb b*tch?
You think I'm just gonna roll
in here with a truckload of cash
so you can take it from me and kill me?
I look that stupid?
Well, just in case you are,
I'll speak real slow.
If you don't have two and a half million
dollars in your car,
you're both gonna die.
Right now.
- I don't think so.
- Yeah, why's that?
'Cause we brought company.
You son of a b*tch.
- You're under arrest.
- That's a cue.
What's my assault team's ETA?
I need 'em here now.
So, tell me...
which one of you Spice Girls
- blew my partner away?
- That would be me.
Scary Spice.
- Yeah?
- Yeah.
Gentlemen, let's not
lose our heads here.
'Cause we all have people
we want to see again.
I have a family.
And you have a daughter,
I'm sure you have someone.
- I have no one.
- Well, let me finish.
You have someone not in the traditional
sense of having someone...
Well, f***ing now
I have you.
I have got to learn
to stop talking.
- Now back off!
- Or what?
- Do I really need to say it?
- You shoot him; I shoot you.
Better yet,
this gun can put a hole
through both of you.
- You won't do that.
- Wanna bet?
You won't shoot
your friend.
Ah, yes, he would
and he did,
- but I hope he won't.
- Shut up.
Nigel, take his gun.
Now, you give your gun to Nigel
and you get on your knees slowly.
Let it go.
You're alone, Agent Vann.
It might appear
that way,
but my man Masseter's
got my back.
- Who?
- Mr. Masseter.
Latin dude.
600 pounds of power.
Nice try.
See, now I'm gonna
count to three,
and if you don't give
your gun to Nigel
and get on your knees,
I'm gonna put a bullet
between your eyes.
One, two...
Three!
Ah! Oh!
Move in now, go!
Go! Go!
Oh!
Ah! Oh! Oh!
- SWAT team! Don't move!
- Sh*t!
Go! Go! Go!
Are you alive?
Oh! Are you hit?
- Yeah.
- Where?
In my ass.
In your ass?
Let me take a look.
Oh, sh*t!
Get off me!
I'll get
the taco sauce.
- All right. Easy.
- On your face! Get down! Now!
- All right, let's go!
- Watch your right! Watch your right!
Can I assume
that Agent Vann
has been cleared
by Internal Affairs now?
No, not so fast. I want
to see every penny of that money.
Heads up.
How about now,
you bean-counting moron?
Look, I appreciate
the ride, I really do,
but I think I can get
on a plane by myself.
Yeah, I'm sure you can,
but I just want to see
it with my own eyes.
The white zone
is for immediate loading
and unloading of passengers only.
There is no parking.
Tell me I didn't hear
what I think I just heard.
It's really nothing,
l... uh, I wouldn't worry about it.
