- My Liv.

- What has she toId you?

Don't you see?

Don't--

don't do this!

Don't, don't, don't do this.

Howard...

you're kiIIing me.

You're kiIIing me.

Why?

Why are you kiIIing me?

Why are you kiIIing me?

What the heII

are you doing?

I know about you

and Quentin.

Quentin?

You went to the movies

Iast Thursday, 8:00?

Yes.

Then at 9:
00,

you caIIed him from your car?

Must've been a short movie.

Howard,

there's an expIanation.

I know, I know.

You're f***ing him.

You're f***ing my best friend.

That wouId be a IittIe hard

to accompIish, Howard.

Oh, so true.

So true.

( Livia gasps )

Howard.

You shouId reaIIy Iearn

to pay your parking tickets.

What--

You thought we--

Howard...

Quentin was gay.

You'd say anything!

I don't know what happened.

WouId you just taIk to me?!

Howard, Howard.

Howard.

You have to Iisten to me.

PIease, Howard.

PIease, Howard.

Do you recognize

the neighborhood?

LittIe Cuba.

Just think,

the first time I saw you

was onIy three bIocks from here.

Look at me, Howard.

Of course then, the neighborhood

was much more coIorfuI.

Look at me.

Howard, pIease.

PIease, Howard.

Now it's just for whores.

You'II fit right in.

Look at that rock!

Look at it! Take a Iook!

I gave you that

when I had nothing.

AII I asked for

in return, was IoyaIty.

I have been IoyaI to you, Howard.

You're not making any sense!

I'm not making sense?

Here, Iook at this.

I found that in Quentin's bed.

Does that make enough sense for you?

Huh, huh?

No.

Me neither.

( Livia screams )

( Ioud thump )

( train whistIe bIows )

( Livia screams )

I'd Iike to go to the cIub.

I need a Martini.

$50,000 a piece.

And $50,000 more

to the man who kiIIs him.

If you accept this money,

you are in tiII it's over.

Where have you been?

Huh?

- Where's Quentin?

- Oh... weII,

he's wrapped up in something.

- I caIIed home, no one was there.

- Your mother's gone.

- What?

- She took the train.

Frank's voice:

''...Number two:

Frank CastIe is dead.

He died with his famiIy.

Number three:

In certain extreme situations,

the Iaw is inadequate.

In order to shame

its inadequacy,

it is necessary

to act outside the Iaw,

to pursue...

naturaI justice.

This is not vengeance.

Revenge is not a vaIid motive,

it's an emotionaI response.

No, not vengeance--

punishment. ''

Hey, Eddie,

more champagne on the doubIe.

Coming right up.

Stop!

- ( gunshot )

- ( man grunts )

You Iook Iike a strong kid.

You must work out.

Ever try isometrics?

This antipersonneI mine

weighs eight pounds.

Not much.

WeII...

try hoIding it

with an outstretched arm.

HeII of a workout.

Don't Ieave me Iike this.

Don't Ieave me Iike this!

HeIp, pIease.

Howard Saint.

Howard Saint!

You took everything from me.

You kiIIed my son.

- ( John screams )

- ( bomb expIodes )

Both of them.

I made you kiII

your best friend.

I made you kiII your wife.

Oh, God.

And now I've kiIIed you.

( beeping )

( screams )

You're right,

good memories

can save your Iife.

When Dave gets out of the hospitaI,

check the cupboard.

I Ieft something.

For aII of you.

- You're Ieaving?

- I have work to do.

Read your newspaper every day.

You'II understand.

Which section?

Obituaries.

Frank's voice:

''Those who do eviI to others--

the kiIIers, the rapists,

psychos, sadists--

you wiII come to know me weII.

Frank CastIe is dead.

CaII me...

The Punisher. ''

One, two, three, go!

I've thrown away,

I've thrown away again

The piIIs that make me

I've thrown away,

I've thrown away again

The chance

to want to change

I've thrown away,

I've thrown away again

Standing aII aIone

I've thrown away,

I've thrown away again

Eyes wired shut

Running through my brain

PuIIing back the skin,

it happens, we're getting oIder

Eyes wired shut

Running through my brain

It's aII the same,

but in the end

It keeps me coming

I've bIown away,

bIown away again

The fear of faiIing

I've bIown away,

bIown away again

The Iies that make me sane

I've bIown away

the chance to make it right

I want to be,

I want to see

I want to make it back to me

Eyes wired shut

Running through my brain

PuIIing back the skin,

it happens, we're getting oIder

Eyes wired shut

Running through my brain

It's aII the same,

but in the end

It keeps me coming

Eyes wired shut

Running through my brain

PuIIing back the skin, it happens,

we're getting oIder

Eyes wired shut

Running through my brain

It's aII the same,

but in the end

It keeps me coming.

( baIIad pIays )

I wanted you to know

That I Iove the way you Iaugh

I want to hoId you high

And steaI your pain away

I keep your photograph

And I know it serves me weII

I want to hoId you high

And steaI your pain

Because I'm broken

When I'm Ionesome

And I don't feeI right

When you're gone away

You've gone away

You don't feeI me here

Anymore

The worst is over now

And we can breathe again

I want to hoId you high

SteaI my pain away

There's so much Ieft to Iearn

And no one Ieft to fight

I want to hoId you high

And steaI your pain

'Cause I'm broken

When I'm open

And I don't feeI

Like I am strong enough...
