The Thieves Page #6

Synopsis: In order to let things cool down from their latest heist, Popeye and his group of thieves go to Macau on a job. But the mastermind behind this job is none other than Popeye's old partner Macau Park, who escaped with 68kg of gold several years ago on their last job together. Macau Park brought Chinese thieves as well but little did they know what Macau Park planned for each one of them. His plan takes an unexpected turn when Popeye brings Pepsi, a genius safe-cracker and old flame of Macau Park, to settle the old score. The thieves' target is a $20 million diamond known as 'Tear of the Sun', kept safely away in a casino, brought there to be sold by a notorious Chinese fence. While working together to steal this fabled diamond, they all have their own agenda to keep the diamond for themselves. But who will succeed and live to see another day?

and find that diamond, b*tch!

Get it yourself, if you can.

Yet another love boat.

Whoa, did you cry?

Let's stop.

Enough of this drama.

- The diamonds in there?

- It's an empty room.

Put away your dirty hands.

How do you know?

Whose hand is dirtier?

I saw you, receiving this in Macao.

Open this door.

You open it.

If you can.

Looks like everyone's here.

Are you in my room?

Why are you all so quiet?

Find the diamond?

No.

Pepsee, you probably didn't try.

All these years...

Sorry for hating you.

Thanks for saving me in Macao.

- We should meet...

- Meet and do what?

Are you on a date, huh?

All lovey-dovey?

My upstanding character

will give you 5 minutes to get out.

Some scary men are coming.

When did you become so merciful?

Didn't you know?

Mercy comes from the wallet.

That wallet is mine.

Yenicall! Are you in yet?

Why are you calling me out?

Hey, Macao Park.

I'm going into your room, 1505.

Hear that?

We're getting your diamond.

Why are you so quiet? Huh?

You're in hell, a**hole.

Dunno anyone in heaven anyway.

- Macao Park.

- Where's Wei Hong?

- The diamond?

- The money?

Go!

They made contact.

Arrest the woman in the cafe.

Let's move.

Hurry up!

Everyone's heading back.

Okay, I am Macao Park.

Let's absorb some nicotine first.

Yenicall, are you in?

Did you find the diamond?

Please shut up, I'm concentrating.

Uh, sure, sure.

Wait, they're all carrying

automatic weapons.

Don't worry, SWAT's on the way.

It's that car again.

Move!

Careful, old man.

- You got a ferry to catch.

- If I can.

Where the hell...

Oh... my God...

You're a ballsy bastard,

making us come to Busan.

Stealing from a thief.

What's wrong with that?

If you beg, we may let you

walk away with some pocket change.

But I'm here for $10 million.

Hey, hey.

Business first.

- Where is it?

- Over there.

Appraisal in 1503.

Bring it.

Alpha team, move!

Protect the tenants

and sweep thoroughly.

Send in the SWAT!

Alpha take the entrance,

Bravo cover the back.

Move in quietly.

Yenicall, it's chaotic down here.

- The diamond?

- I have it.

Come down quick!

Why here?

Don't you remember this room?

A long time ago,

you sat right here.

Right?

Wei Hong!

Whiskey?

Is there time for whiskey?

Was I sitting here?

Who are you?

There were two thieves here.

No, three.

If you do not comply

before this burns out,

you'll die one by one.

We won't sell at that price!

We want $500,000!

That was your father?

You won't last long with good memory.

Those who steal from me...

are all dead.

That's fine,

you'll be captured here anyway.

This is a fake!

He fled downstairs.

Wait.

Send in the sniper! Hurry!

Hold your fire!

- Grenade!

- Get back!

Hey, Yenicall, are you alright?

Did a war break out?

Get away!

Men down!

- Protect the tenants!

- Charlie team this way!

Let's get up there!

Julie, cover the exit.

Yenicall?

What?

Stop badgering me!

Just wondering where you were.

I think I'm near the elevator.

Ah, then you can just toss it.

Can't I give it to you in person?

Don't you trust me?

Sure I do,

but I heard some things...

Cops are everywhere!

We have to trust each other

at a time like this.

I'm on top of the elevator

on the 3rd floor.

Come on, let's hurry.

I love you!

Okay.

He fell to the 7th floor.

Bravo, one suspect apprehended

on the 7th floor.

The gunshots are closer now.

Yenicall, are you here?

Yes!

Can you see me?

I see you.

Then toss it to me.

I'm tossing you my life.

Alright, now!

Wait for me downstairs.

I told you, this is your hell.

A small time burglar without you?

Why did you do it?

Do what?

Why did you cut the wire?

Can't thieves do that?

But you took the gold!

All 68kg of it!

Friend! My old friend!

Get your wound treated.

You're f***ed.

Those Chinese will find you.

I know.

It'll be hell.

And lonely.

Please calmly exit the building!

Stop.

Moron, didn't even know

it was next to him.

- Wei Hong?

- Okay.

Macao Park is getting away!

Hey.

Get him!

He received a ferry ticket.

Get to the pier!

Where is the pier?

Wei Hong! Freeze!

From Hong Kong?

You got orders not to arrest me.

By those on your payroll?!

But not just in Hong Kong.

Where is Macao Park?

Busan Pier, I mean, Busan Pier.

Thank you.

Popie, Popie!

Answer me!

Andrew, do you see Popie?

- Huh?

- Grab him!

What the hell are you saying?

Excuse me.

Hey, Popie!

Popie, you got the diamond?!

Don't follow me!

- Yo Popie, come here!

- Go away!

Move!

You're so dead!

Let's chat, a**hole!

Goddammit!

Go away!

- Are you okay?!

- He's okay. Good job.

Hey you!

Stop! Stop! Stop!

That's odd,

why is this diamond so fragile?

Hey, Yenicall.

I think we took the wrong diamond.

Yenicall, you b*tch!

How much is he paying you

for the replica?

$20,000. Why'?

Send me one too.

I'll pay $50,000.

Don't tell Popie.

What are you doing there?

What we always do.

Here you go.

Thank you.

Bravo, keep sweeping.

I was in the shower

and heard the gunshots!

What's going on?

It's all over now.

- Is it okay to go down?

- Yes.

- Is it safe?

- I'll escort you there.

Thank you.

Thank you.

I don't know if these will fit.

Just need to cover my feet.

Thank you.

Take care then.

Zampano should've seen this.

Chewing gum would've been

so proud of me.

Why do I feel sad...

No, no.

Happy ending is mine!

Don't move.

I thought... we are friend.

Cops and thieves are always partners.

Wei Hong!

Wei Hong! Stop!

Inspector!

I got Wei Hong!

Inspector! I got him!

Sir, why aren't you answering!

- Whoa!

- What's up?

The cops didn't find this stash.

Poor Popie, he got 4 years.

Where is Yenicall?

She's in Hong Kong to sell it,

but who'd buy it at that price?

She'll end up just crawling back to me.

Why?

Going to Hong Kong?

No more business in Hong Kong.

What kind of wine would you like?

Just give me a glass of red.

This airline has the best white wine.

- Not that, bring us Meursault.

- Yes, sir.

Oh, that's me.

Are you meeting your boyfriend

in Hong Kong?

No, a colleague.

A woman.

Hong Kong's cuisine is wonderful.

How about a dinner to celebrate

this serendipity?

Please don't refuse,

it'd be impolite.

My mom always said to me,

'Be careful of women'.

But need I be careful even abroad?

It's just dinner.

Is it a yes or no?

You make it...

impossible to refuse.

Here's a message for you.

Need the fence list?

Mother of all b*tches,

how did she find me?!

Sis!

So happy to see you!

Look at me shaking!

- You're really here!

- And the diamond?

In my room.

I'll give you 30% for that list.

And you pay for

my month-long hotel bill.

So I brought someone to pay it.

This... doesn't feel right...

Oh my God...

I got a bad deal,

the price of gold went up.

Macao Park?

Did you really pray that

we should never meet again?

Can't we talk face-to-face?

We can start over again.

And we will.

But there are

too many eyes around you.

One moment.

Here is the key, sir.

Thank you.
