Well, f*** you.

F*** you!

F*** you!

Hey, there's $500 million

out there, a**holes.

Cool out!

Here, check the perimeter.

Get with it.

Hello, red 1.

Come in.

Red 1, will you get off your ass?

What?

Everything's ok?

Yeah.

Red 2, what have you got?

Bad kidneys. I got to pee.

So pee. Everything's ok?

Yeah.

It's dead here.

The u.S. Coast guard.

Cut your engines.

What are you doing here?

We had to pull into dock.

Our hull is leaking.

Down there. Have a look.

Jesus christ.

F***ing f*ggot frenchmen.

Here they come. Here they come!

You're 15 minutes late,

you stupid d*ckhead.

What's the big idea?

Hey, guys, get back there.

Seven dead wise guys.

All from different families.

Guess it's a drug deal gone bad.

Guess again.

Aah!

Idiko tanaka.

She's single,

In her early 40s.

She has one daughter,

A mute american girl

she adopted at birth

Who never leaves her sight.

She's a graduate from

harvard business school

And the first female

ever to head the yakuza.

Yaku what?

Yakuza.

Japanese mafia.

This is a long f***ing way from japan.

What are they doing here?

I don't know.

We are about to find out.

Ok.

Lady tanaka.

Mr. Franco.

It is an honor.

Your reputation precedes you.

As does yours.

Please sit down.

No, thank you.

What i have to say will be brief.

We have been tracking your organization

For quite some time.

Your leadership is decimated.

Your soldiers are inexperienced.

Our little demonstration on pier 30

Was ample proof of that.

You're weak, mr. Franco,

Vulnerable...

And we are not.

We could cripple

all your operations--

Legal, as well as

illegal-- Very easily.

But we don't want that.

With all due respect,

Let's cut through the bullshit.

What do you want?

A partnership.

Define the term.

You will manage and oversee

All your business on

a day-To-Day basis.

We will assume the duties

of executive administration,

Investments, and financial services.

Come on!

I'm not through.

What do you propose as a split?

No f***ing way am i

going to be a salary boy

To some bunch of nips.

I don't know about you guys,

But the deleo family gives up sh*t.

We don't work for nobody.

Who the f*** do you think you are?

We are yakuza.

When your ancestors were

still shepherds screwing sheep

On the mediterranean coast,

Ours were the crime lords of asia.

I'm not offering terms,

Mr. Franco.

I'm making demands.

And what if we choose not to comply?

Steps are now being taken

to ensure that you will.

You americans have a great

capacity for violence.

But it's wild, unfocused.

You will learn.

Good day, gentlemen.

What do we do?

Only one thing we can.

We go to war.

What do you think you're

going to do with that,

Play ms. Pac-Man or something?

Hopefully find castle.

No sh*t.

No sh*t.

Uh-Huh.

How are we going to

accomplish this little miracle?

I've accessed into all

available data banks

With information on him

And programmed the

computer to form an analysis

Of probable locations.

Oh, wow.

Even the punisher has to live somewhere.

Hey.

You see this board here?

Yeah.

I've been living with it for five years.

Every time he kills somebody,

I put a pin there.

I fine-Tooth every building,

Every alley, in this city.

The only thing that

i've got to show for it

Is these little calling cards here...

And a whole bunch of these.

I've already been through this city.

I've been in it,

around it, on top of it.

You name it.

How about under it?

I get the red.

I hate yellow.

The red's gross, jenny.

I think it's totally hot.

Hi. I'm peter bear. I really care.

And to show you it's true,

I have things to teach you.

Like what, peter?

Ohh! Ohh!

Come on!

Wait up!

Roger?

Roger?

Hello?

Hello?

Come out.

Come out, wherever you are.

Oh!

Bubble, bubble, toil and trouble,

I better get out of here on the double.

Aah!

With your flair for entrances,

You should consider a

career in the theater.

I'll think about it.

What are you doing here?

What would i be doing,

Tramping around the sewers

of this great metropolis?

Sightseeing.

Heh heh. Very funny.

I bring you news, you give me grief.

You know, they all think you're dead.

They'll kill each other now.

Turn the lights off when you leave.

Very clever.

And what will you do

While the carnage ensues?

Take a vacation.

Yes, i hear the sewers of paris

Are lovely this time of year.

And what about the children?

What children?

The children of the new bosses

Are now counted among their losses.

They're being held for

ransom by the japanese.

So the bosses will have to pay up.

Pay they will and all for naught.

The children will be

sold by the slave trade--

They've been bought.

My god, man, don't you see?

This is the result of your

five-Year killing spree.

You weakened the

fathers to such degrees,

They couldn't protect

their own families.

I punish the guilty.

And as a result, the

innocent now suffer.

You must do something!

You must do something.

Enough of this f***ing brainstorming.

Let's snatch her daughter,

Take her to the meeting

With this in her mouth,

Then we talk.

Before you go snatching anybody,

Let me tell you a story

About our miss tanaka.

The only person she was ever close to

Was her twin brother.

They grew up in a tokyo orphanage

After the second world war.

They were inseparable.

They lived together their whole lives.

One day he stuck the yakuza

For a lot of money,

Which he had no

intention of paying back.

Nothing happened to him because of her.

Then other people started

getting the same idea.

Before she could become

head of the organization,

The other leaders demanded

an act of absolute loyalty.

You know what she did?

She went home,

Cooked her brother a beautiful meal,

Waited until he had finished,

And then slit his throat.

Jesus.

What are you saying?

We don't deal with her?

Wecan't deal with her.

You're saying there's nothing

that can save our kids.

There is, but it's lying

at the bottom of the harbor.

Well, i'm going to the meeting.

Yeah.

Yeah, i'm going, too.

I'm not.

Good.

The money for the children.

The slave business is very profitable.

Come on. Don't cry.

We're going to be ok.

We're not. It's because

of my father i'm here.

That's not true.

Then why are we here?

I don't know.

We're being held for ransom

Because our fathers are rich gangsters.

But my father's not a gangster.

Are you kidding?

Your father's the biggest gangster

And a coward.

My dad said he's

responsible for this mess.

Bullshit!

You're bullshit!

Why are you fighting?

Everything is going to be all right.

I want to go home.

And you will.

When?

Soon.

Shh.

No more tears.

Here.

Come with me.

Leave her alone.

Ow!

Uhh!

Come in.

Thank you.

Hi.

Here's your usual.

Aah! Aah! Aah!

Aah! Aah! Aah!

Every day the children are gone,

It's going to cost you money.

Take that message to your people.

Take the money. Run. Go! Go!

Hold it. Hold it.

Who are these two happy campers?
