THE GUY I JUST SAVED IS A COP.

THAT'S NOT THE USUAL WAY
I DO THINGS,

BUT SOMETIMES YOU JUST GOTTA
ABANDON YOUR PRINCIPLES

AND DO WHAT'S RIGHT.

HERE'S THE STORY.
THIS IS THE WAY IT WENT DOWN.

[ TIRES SCREECH, CAT YOWLS ]

SHIT!

YOU OKAY?

YOU MADE ME SPILL

AH, NOW IT'S GONNA LOOK LIKE
I PISSED IN MY PANTS.

[ CHUCKLES ]

GODDAMN IT.

THE WAY YOU WHIPPED AROUND
THAT CAT --

YOU DON'T EVEN LIKE CATS.

I GOT NO PROBLEM WITH CATS.
I DON'T LIKE DANDER.

SO YOU ALMOST ROLL YOUR CAR
TRYING NOT TO HIT ONE

OUT OF SIX HUNDRED MILLION
CATS IN THE WORLD?

IT'S BAD LUCK
KILLING A CAT.

PRETTY GOOD REFLEXES
FOR AN OLD GUY.

I GOT YOUR OLD GUY.

YOU READY?

LOUIS IS READY.

LET'S GO TO WORK.

FOR A MINUTE.

I DON'T GIVE A SHIT
ABOUT YOUR BADGE, MAN.

YOU GOT A FUCKING WARRANT?

'CAUSE I'M PAYING A GRAND
A NIGHT FOR THIS SUITE,

AND I'M ABOUT TO GET LAID.

SO IF YOU AIN'T ROOM SERVICE
AND YOU AIN'T GOT A WARRANT,

THEN YOU CAN GO FUCK
YOURSELVES.

KEEP YOUR FUCKING PANTS ON!

WELL, WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS?

[ CHUCKLES ] I'M GONNA HAVE
YOUR JOB, TOUGH GUY.

I STILL DON'T SEE
ANY PAPER,

WHICH MEANS YOU GOT NO
LEGAL AUTHORITY TO BE HERE.

YOU MUST NOT LIKE YOUR JOB MUCH,
HUH, SHITHEAD?

RIGHT NOW, I'M LOVING IT.

AH!

DON'T FORGET TO GET HIS WATCH

AND WALLET.

[ GUNSHOT, GLASS SHATTERS ]

[ GLASS SHATTERS ]

AND I HANDLED IT.

WANNA SAY GOODBYE?

[ HORN BLOWS ]

WHAT'S BOTHERING YOU?

NOTHING.

COME ON, SOMETHING'S GOT
YOUR PANTIES IN A KNOT.

WHY ELSE ARE WE GONNA GO MEET
RONNIE EARL IN PUBLIC?

YEAH, I DON'T TRUST
THAT REDNECK PRICK, THAT'S WHY.

JOB'S DONE.
WENT FINE, NO PROBLEM.

WHY DON'T YOU
DO ME A FAVOR?

WHEN WE GET OUR DOUGH,
WHY DON'T YOU GO AWAY A WHILE?

TAKE A VACATION, MAYBE GO
UP RIVER, SEE YOUR MOTHER.

YOU WANNA CLUE ME IN?

I DIDN'T SHOOT
THAT HOOKER.

Lola: NO!

JESUS.
SHE SAW YOU?

YEAH, BUT SHE AIN'T
GONNA SAY NOTHING.

HOW DO YOU KNOW?

'CAUSE SHE'S MORE AFRAID OF US
THAN THE COPS, THAT'S WHY.

[ "J'ETAIS AU BAL" PLAYS ]

[ SINGING IN FRENCH ]

AND A WHISKEY FOR MY FRIEND.

YOU GOT A PREFERENCE?

WHAT'S THAT?

SOME KIND OF WHISKEY
NOBODY'S EVER HEARD OF.

WHY DON'T YOU BRING
YOUR OWN BOTTLE?

GIVE HIM THE BEST BOURBON
YOU GOT, HOT STUFF,

AND DON'T BE GONE
TOO LONG.

THAT SOUND AS DESPERATE
AS I THINK IT DID?

YEAH, DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT,
YOU'RE A REAL CASANOVA.

[ CROWD CHEERING,

I'M NOT WAITING AROUND

I'M GONNA GO TO THE CAN.

I JUST THINK OF IT
AS A BUSINESS.

THE PEOPLE I WORK FOR ARE SHIT.

AND THE PEOPLE I TAKE OUT
ARE WORSE.

I GOT SOME RULES.

NO WOMEN, NO CHILDREN.

HALF THE MONEY IN ADVANCE,
AND HALF WHEN THE JOB IS DONE.

THAT'S HOW YOU
STAY IN THE GAME.

AND ON THIS ONE,
THE GAME GOT ROUGH.

[ INDISTINCT CONVERSATION ]

Female computerized voice:
YOU HAVE ONE MESSAGE.

McKay:
DETECTIVE KWON, McKAY HERE.

THE LOCAL PD HAS AGREED
TO TAKE YOU DOWN TO THE MORGUE

AND SHOW YOU GREELY'S BODY
AND PERSONAL EFFECTS.

WHATEVER GOT HIM KILLED,

HE MUST'VE BEEN CLOSE
TO SOMETHING SENSITIVE.

WE DEFINITELY NEED YOU
TO SORT THIS OUT.

SINCE THE CASE
HAS THE POTENTIAL

TO GET TOUCHY WITH THE FEDS,

WE WANT TO MAINTAIN RADIO
SILENCE ON THE SITUATION

UNTIL YOU HAVE
SOME REAL ANSWERS.

GOOD LUCK.

[ SIREN WAILS ]

EXCUSE ME.

YEAH, I'M LOOKING
FOR LIEUTENANT LEBRETON.

YEAH,

HE'S RIGHT IN THAT OFFICE.

THANK YOU.

Lola: I WAS IN THE SHOWER
FOR...THIRTY MINUTES.

Towne: THIRTY MINUTES?

Kwon: LIEUTENANT?

HI, DETECTIVE TAYLOR KWON.

I WENT TO THE HOTEL.

THE CLIENT ASKED ME
TO TAKE A SHOWER.

AND THEN THOSE GUYS CAME.

AND WHAT WERE
THEY LOOKING FOR?

THEY WANTED MY CLIENT.

THEY WANTED TO KILL HIM.

THAT'S WHAT
THEY CAME TO DO.

BUT I DON'T
GET A GOOD LOOK AT THEM.

I CAN'T IDENTIFY THEM.

TWO GUYS WHACKED HIM.

LOOKS LIKE A DRUG DEAL
GONE BAD,

BUT THE TRUTH IS WE DON'T KNOW
SHIT SO ANYTHING'S POSSIBLE.

THEY DIDN'T KILL THE HOOKER
THAT GREELY WAS WITH.

THESE GUYS ARE PROS, I DON'T
KNOW WHY THEY'D LEAVE A WITNESS.

THAT'S HER.
RUSSIAN.

I THOUGHT ALL THE RUSSIAN
HOOKERS WENT TO L.A.,

NEW YORK, OR VEGAS.

I GET INTO THE SHOWER,
I TOLD YOU ALREADY.

Towne: IS THIS THE FIRST TIME
YOU SAW THAT CLIENT?

WHAT DO YOU KNOW
ABOUT MR. GREELY?

EX-WDCPD, DETECTIVE GRADE.

FOR ABOUT SIX MONTHS,
HE WAS MY PARTNER.

HE WAS KICKED OFF THE FORCE
IN COMPLETE DISGRACE.

COP GONE REAL BAD.
DRUNK, GAMBLING.

HE STOLE EVIDENCE FROM A CASE
HE WAS WORKING.

WE STILL DON'T KNOW
WHAT IT WAS.

[ CELLPHONE RINGS ]

McKAY: Detective?

TAYLOR HERE.

We ran Henry Hank Greely
back through NCIC

for recent known associates
and came up with several reports

of a possible relationship
with a local career criminal

and protection racketeer
Baby Jack Lemoyne.

So far that's it.

RIGHT,
I'LL CHECK IN LATER.

WHO'S THIS GUY?

LOUIS BLANCHARD,
LOCAL LOWLIFE, HIT MAN.

SOMEBODY PUNCHED HIS TICKET
WHILE HE WAS DRINKING A BEER.

YOU GOT
AN ESTIMATED TIME?

JUST ABOUT MIDNIGHT.

McKAY: DCPD.

YEAH, IT'S TAYLOR HERE.

Yes, Detective?

GET ME A SPEED CHECK
ON A LOUIS BLANCHARD, LOCAL.

REPUTED HIT MAN.

GET ME ANY
KNOWN ASSOCIATES.

Right.

SOMEBODY TOOK HIM OUT A COUPLE
HOURS AFTER GREELY LAST NIGHT.

MURDER WEAPON
WAS A FIVE-INCH BLADE

WITH A THREE-INCH CURVATURE,
MAINLY USED FOR GUTTING ANIMALS.

THE STRIKES
WERE ALMOST SURGICAL.

DEFLATED BOTH LUNGS,
PUNCTURED THE HEART.

Detective Kwon,
we've come up with two hits.

Louis Blanchard, 37 years old
with a long list of priors.

Blanchard is a known associate
of one James Bonomo,

aka Jimmy Bobo,

suspected hit man,
26 arrests, two convictions.

I'll send you his
current contact information

via local
parole board database.

RIGHT.

That's all for now.

AND THANKS.

SO THIS GUY,
LOUIS BLANCHARD,

IS A KNOWN ASSOCIATE OF
A JAMES BONOMO, AKA JIMMY BOBO.

THEY WORKED TOGETHER

AND THEY POSSIBLY FIT THE
PROFILE OF GREELY'S KILLERS.

VERY GOOD.

YOU GET ALL THAT OFF YOUR CELL?

SO I TAKE IT WE'RE LOOKING
FOR THIS JIMMY BOBO?

MY HOMICIDE DIVISION
IS MORE THAN CAPABLE

OF HANDLING THIS MATTER
WITHOUT YOUR HELP.

YOU KNOW, I THINK
I'LL STICK AROUND FOR AWHILE.

HOLD ON.
YOU PACKING?

YOU DON'T HAVE A CRESCENT CITY
CARRY PERMIT, DO YOU?

[ Phone ringing ]

Jimmy: NOBODY'S HERE.
LEAVE A MESSAGE.

[ BEEP ]

HELLO, JIMMY.

NAME'S TAYLOR KWON.

I'M FROM OUT OF STATE,

following up on the death
of a Hank Greely,

former associate of mine.

I think Louis Blanchard's murder
ties into all this.

If you're interested
in hearing some more,

meet me at the St. Charles
saloon in three hours.

Jimmy: IT'S EASY TO GET
SENTIMENTAL ABOUT THINGS.

LOUIS WAS A BIG BOY.

HE KNEW HE TOOK HIS CHANCES.

I WORKED WITH HIM
THE LAST SIX YEARS,

HE NEVER CAUSED ME A PROBLEM.

BUT STILL, WE DID OUR JOB,

AND WE GOT SET UP.

CAN I HELP YOU?

YEAH,
I NEED A ROCK GLASS.

YOU KNOW, THIS IS A BAR, YOU
CAN'T BRING IN YOUR OWN BOTTLE.

YOU CARRY BULLEIT BOURBON?

NO.

YEAH, WELL, I DO.

HERE'S 20 BUCKS
TO RENT A GLASS.

ALL RIGHT.

SALUTE.

AHH.

YOU'RE A COP, RIGHT?

TAYLOR KWON, WDCPD.

LOOK, THIS ISN'T A STING.
I'M ALONE.

I WOULDN'T BE HERE
IF YOU WEREN'T.

SO I FIGURE YOU
AND LOUIS BLANCHARD

TAKE OUT HANK GREELY
LAST NIGHT.

COUPLE HOURS LATER,

YOU WALK INTO SOME TYPE
OF DOUBLE CROSS.

LOUIS GOES DOWN,
YOU MAKE IT OUT.

THE ONLY PART OF THIS STORY
I CAN'T FIGURE OUT

IS WHY YOU GUYS
LET THE HOOKER LIVE.

WHEN I'M DONE WITH THIS DRINK,
I'M GONNA BE DONE WITH YOU.

HANK GREELY WAS AN EX-COP.
WASHINGTON D.C.

I'M ON THE CASE.

LOOK, I'M NOT
REALLY INTERESTED

IN SOME DISPOSABLE HIRED HITTER,

NO OFFENSE.

BUT I WANT THE GUYS
WHO DID THE HIRING.

YOU KNOW, THE SAME GUYS
WHO TOOK OUT YOUR PARTNER.

THEY PROBABLY
HELD OUT ON YOU.

OWE YOU SOME MONEY?
LET'S WORK TOGETHER.

WE CAN HELP
EACH OTHER OUT.

I DON'T WORK WITH COPS.

IS THAT IT?

THAT'S IT.

YOU CHANGE YOUR MIND,
GIVE ME A CALL.

WHY DON'T YOU HAVE A DRINK
FOR LOUIS?

THAT'S PROBABLY THE ONLY THING
YOU'LL EVER DO FOR HIM.

OF A PROBLEM LAST NIGHT.

THAT SCUMBAG GREELY

KNEW HE NEEDED SOME KIND
OF INSURANCE POLICY

IN ORDER TO BLACKMAIL US,

SO HE FOUND BABY JACK,

AND HE GAVE HIM HIS EVIDENCE
FILE FOR SAFEKEEPING,

ALL OF IT PROVING THAT
WE PAID OFF A CONGRESSMAN

TO STEER A GOVERNMENT
CONTRACT OUR WAY.

WE HAVE AN INFORMANT
INSIDE HIS CREW.

HE GAVE US THE LOCATION
OF THE FILE.

I WANT YOU
TO DESTROY IT.

OKAY, SO...

WE ARE DONE.

FOR 24 HOURS,

BUSTING MY CHOPS.

AND THAT C-4 CASE,
SOMEONE ELSE CONFESSED TO IT,

BUT I GUESS YOU AIN'T GONNA FIND
THAT ON MY RECORDS, ARE YOU?

YOU STILL DID ENOUGH
FUCKED-UP SHIT

TO SPEND THE REST OF YOUR LIFE

IN PRISON.

THAT AIN'T GONNA HAPPEN,

BUT I LIKE YOUR SPIRIT,
THAT SAMURAI THING.

IT'S NICE.

FIRST OF ALL, SAMURAI
IS JAPANESE, I'M KOREAN.

GOT IT.

THAT'S LIKE ME SAYING MY
FAVORITE ITALIAN FOOD ARE TACOS.

THAT'S KIND OF
A STUPID ANALOGY.

[ INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS ]

WOW.

LOOKS LIKE BAPTISTE
IS HAVING A PARTY.

YOU KNOW, COSTUMES COULD WORK
TO OUR ADVANTAGE.

SLIP IN AND GRAB HIM
WHERE HE CAN'T MAKE A SCENE.

GOT IT COVERED.

[ ENGINE TURNS OVER ]

[ INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS ]

[ BLUES MUSIC PLAYS ]

HEY, HOW ARE YOU?

JUST A RUNAWAY.

WE'D LOVE FOR YOU
TO JOIN US.

Woman:
BAPTISTE, WONDERFUL PARTY!

Baptiste: HEY! THERE YOU ARE.
I WAS JUST LOOKING FOR YOU.

WHY DON'T THE TWO OF YOU MEET ME
IN THE BACK BEDROOM THERE,

WE'LL PLAY THE FOX AND THE HOUND
TOGETHER IN A LITTLE BIT.

Kwon: THAT'S OUR GUY.

ENJOY YOURSELF.

WAIT HERE.

HEY, KIDS!

Man:

WANT YOU TO MEET SOMEONE.

GOOD TO SEE YOU.

WONDERFUL PARTY.
THANK YOU.

I KNOW IT'S YOU. LOOK AT YOU!
LOOKING GREAT, BABY.

GENTLEMEN, GENTLEMEN.
ARGH!

OH, COME TO ME, PRINCESS.

FABULOUS.

YES, BABY.

OH!

AHA, DARLING!

EASTER BUNNY,
HOW'S IT GOING THERE?

Man #2:
GOOD TO SEE YOU!

GONNA KEEP
GETTING NAUGHTIER.

KEEP GETTING CRAZIER.

GENTLEMEN,
DESPITE THE REVERSES

AND CALAMITIES
OF THE RECENT PAST,

WE BELIEVE THAT THIS CITY STILL
HAS A BRIGHT ECONOMIC FUTURE.

WHAT WE'RE GOING TO DO

IS KNOCK THESE GHETTO
HOUSING PROJECTS FLAT

AND REPLACE THEM
WITH SAFE, MODERN,

PRESTIGIOUS CONDOMINIUMS.

AH, GENTLEMEN.

OUR HOST, MR. BAPTISTE.

GOOD EVENING.

HOPE YOU GENTLEMEN SPEND
SOME TIME AT THE PARTY.

PLEASURE, PLEASURE.

TO OUR POTENTIAL SUCCESS.
CHEERS.

Man: CHEERS.

NEED ANYTHING?

A LITTLE PRIVACY
RIGHT NOW.

AND A LITTLE MORE WHISKEY,
IF YOU CAN ARRANGE IT.

[ CHUCKLES ]

GENTLEMEN.

[ INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS ]

HEY, TIFFANY!

YES, MR. BAPTISTE?

MOREL WANTS
SOME MORE WHISKEY.

HEY, YOU KNOW WHAT?
FUCK HIM.

MR. BAPTISTE.
[ CHUCKLES ]

GONNA PISS IN HIS CUP.
[ LAUGHS ]

ANY DRUGS IN HERE?

[ SIGHS, ZIPPER UNZIPS ]

[ HUMMING DRUNKENLY ]

OH.

GRIP IT AND ZIP IT,

WHAT THE FREAK IS THIS,
A JOKE?

[ GROANS ]

NAH, IT AIN'T NO JOKE.

[ INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS,

[ PHONE RINGS ]

YEAH.

MEET ME BY THE STAIRCASE
AT THE REAR OF THE HOUSE.

OKAY, I'LL BE RIGHT THERE.

I THOUGHT YOU WERE JUST
GONNA TALK TO HIM.

I KNOW, I KNOW.

[ MOANS ]

[ TIRES SQUEAL, ENGINE REVS ]

SO, WHERE ARE WE GOING
FOR THIS INTERROGATION?

MY HIT-THE-MATTRESS JOINT,
IT'S AN OLD BOATHOUSE.

JUST DON'T GIVE ME ANY CRAP,
I'M NOT IN THE MOOD RIGHT NOW.

WHAT'S YOUR PROBLEM?

I SAW THE GUY THAT KILLED LOUIS
BACK AT THE PARTY.

I WANTED TO TAKE HIM OUT,
BUT THERE'S TOO MANY WITNESSES.

HE'S STILL OUT.

IF HE WAKES UP,
JUST CRACK HIM.

WHAT? ARE YOU KIDDING?
HE'S TOTALLY OUT.

PLUS HE'S DRUNK,
WHAT'S HE GONNA DO?

JESUS CHRIST!

[ TIRES SQUEAL ]

[ HORNS HONK ]

GET OFF!

NICE GOING, ODDJOB!
GOOD CALL!

YOU KNOW, I GIVE YOU ONE THING,
ONE THING TO DO!

YOU LET TWO UNKNOWN MEN
ENTER THIS HOUSE UNINVITED.

THEN YOU ALLOW THEM
TO TAKE THE OWNER,

AND THEN, UNMOLESTED,

THEY DRIVE OFF INTO THE MIDDLE
OF THE NIGHT.

THAT'S A LITTLE UNFAIR.

DRUNKS WALK IN AND OUT
OF THESE PARTIES ALL THE TIME.

EXPLAIN IT TO HIM.

WOULD YOU TAKE A LOOK
AT THIS, PLEASE?

WE'RE MONITORING THE GPS CHIP
IN BAPTISTE'S PHONE.

AS LONG AS HE HAS IT WITH HIM,
WE CAN TRACK HIM.

[ CHUCKLES ]

EXTRACTION
COULD BE DIFFICULT.

RESCUE OPERATIONS HAVE
A MARGINAL RATE OF SUCCESS.

THE MOST IMPORTANT THING

IS THAT WE ELIMINATE
THE KIDNAPPERS.

EVERYTHING ELSE
IS SECONDARY...

...INCLUDING MR. BAPTISTE.

IS THAT CLEAR?

JUST LET ME HANDLE
THE QUESTIONING, OKAY?

IT'S WHAT I DO
FOR A LIVING.

THERE'S GOT TO BE A METHOD
TO IT, YOU KNOW?

IT'S PSYCHOLOGY, YOU GET HIM
TO LOWER HIS GUARD.

ONE SENTENCE AT A TIME,
BUILD A RHYTHM.

IT'S A LOT LIKE MUSIC.

BREAK HIS FUCKING LEGS,
HE'LL GIVE YOU A WHO CONCERT.

JUST LET ME HANDLE IT,
OKAY?

[ SIGHS ]

[ CHAIR SCRAPES ]

[ CHUCKLES ]

THAT'S GOT TO BE
VERY UNCOMFORTABLE.

HERE WE GO.

FEEL BETTER?
THAT'S GOOD.

NOW, YOU KNOW, YOU'RE GONNA
TALK TO US, RIGHT?

THAT'S A GIVEN.

AND MY ASSOCIATE HERE,
HE'S A DETECTIVE.

AND HE'S GONNA ASK YOU
SOME QUESTIONS

AND YOU'RE
GONNA ANSWER HIM.

REMEMBER ONE THING,
THOUGH.

IF YOU DON'T ANSWER TO HIM,

YOU'RE SURE AS HELL
GONNA TALK TO ME.

[ GASPS ]

BELIEVE IT.

YOU'RE ON.

NICE PARTY.

THANKS.

I DON'T REMEMBER SENDING YOU

AN INVITATION,

BUT I'M GLAD
YOU ENJOYED IT.

OH, I DID.
GREAT COSTUMES.

ESPECIALLY THE LADIES
IN THEIR BIRTHDAY SUITS, HUH?

DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT.

I'LL MAKE SURE
THEY'RE ALL WELL-PAID

AND WELL TAKEN CARE OF.

I BET YOU DO.

DON'T CONDESCEND TO ME,
KATO.

[ SIGHS ]

SAYS HERE
YOU'RE A CHICAGO LAWYER.

THAT'S RIGHT.

CAME HERE 15 YEARS AGO,

PASSED THE LOUISIANA BAR.

SPECIALIZED
IN REAL ESTATE TRANSACTIONS.

MR. HOT PROPERTY, HUH?

THANK GOD FOR GOOGLE.

WELL, HOW DOES IT FEEL

KNOWING THAT YOU'RE
GOING TO GET DISBARRED?

DISGRACED IN THE PRESS,
SERVE HARD TIME,

LOSE EVERY PENNY
YOU'VE EVER MADE.

HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN DOING
BUSINESS WITH RONNIE EARL?

[ CHUCKLES ]
NEVER HEARD OF HIM.

OH, OF COURSE YOU HAVE.

COME ON,
HE HIRED TWO HIT MEN,

WHO THEN MURDERED
HANK GREELY.

RONNIE EARL SAID
THAT YOU DID THE HIRING.

YEAH,
THAT YOU PAID THE MONEY.

YOU'RE A CROOK,
MR. BAPTISTE.

YOU'RE AN ACCOMPLICE
TO MURDER.

COULD WE JUST END
THE CHARADE? HUH?

I KNOW EXACTLY
WHO YOU TWO ARE.

THIS IS WHERE I LIVE,
THIS IS NOW MY CITY.

I AM VERY HIGHLY CONNECTED.

YOU'RE DEALING WITH PEOPLE
THAT ARE WAY UP THE LADDER.

YOU'LL NEVER MAKE ANY
OF THIS BULLSHIT STICK.

IF YOU WANT MY ADVICE,
YOU LET ME GO,

AND THEN RUN TO THE AIRPORT

AS FAST AS YOU AND
THIS DUMBBELL CAN GET THERE.

ALL RIGHT, THAT'S IT, OKAY.

LOOK, THERE'S NOTHING
YOU CAN DO TO ME

I HAVEN'T ALREADY DONE
TO MYSELF FOR FUN.

ALL RIGHT?!

HOW ARE YOU DOING,

YOU THINK HE'S COMFORTABLE?

AH, FUCK!

OKAY, WAIT, WAIT, WAIT!

WAIT.
WHAT DO YOU WANT?

THAT KILLED LOUIS!

TALL GUY.
YEAH, IT'S KEEGAN!

YEAH?
WHAT'S HIS DEAL?

HE'S -- HE'S FFL.

EX-MERCENARY,

CENTRAL AFRICA,
WEST LEBANON.

NOW HE CONTRACTS OUT
TO ROBERT NKOMO MOREL.

WHY DID YOU SET
ME AND LOUIS UP?

MOREL DIDN'T WANNA TAKE
ANY CHANCE

THAT GREELY'S DEATH
COULD BE TRACED BACK TO US.

GREELY WAS INVESTIGATING
MOREL IN D.C.

EVIDENCE OF HIS PAYOFFS TO
CONGRESSMEN, SENATORS, JUDGES.

THOUGHT HE COULD
BLACKMAIL MOREL.

DIDN'T REALIZE WHO
HE WAS FUCKING WITH!
THAT'S IT! NO MORE!

HELL, I DON'T WANT
TO GET MYSELF KILLED HERE.

I'M GONNA BLOW
YOUR LEG OFF.

WHOA, WHOA! OKAY!
OKAY, I'LL TELL YOU ABOUT MOREL.

HE -- HE SWINDLED A TON
OF MONEY OUT OF --

OUT OF WEST AFRICA.

HE -- HE STARTED OUT BUYING UP
A LOT OF CHEAP REAL ESTATE

HERE IN THE CITY
USING OTHER PEOPLE'S NAMES.

THEN HE BRIBED
HIS WAY INTO SOME

BIG GOVERNMENT CONTRACT TO --
TO REDEVELOP THE AREA.

LOOK, I MEAN, THIS CITY IS UP
FOR GRABS, ALWAYS HAS BEEN.

WE'RE JUST TAKING OUR SHARE!
THAT'S IT!

THIS GOES WAY UP, MAN.
WE'RE TALKING ABOUT WASHINGTON.

YOU TWO ARE INSANE
IF YOU THINK THAT --

OKAY! OKAY,
OKAY, OKAY, OKAY, LOOK.

IT'S AROUND MY NECK,
I COPIED GREELY'S WHOLE LIFE.

NAMES, DATES, ACCOUNTS,

A LITTLE INSURANCE POLICY
IN CASE MOREL GOT CLEVER.

AH!

FUCK!

IT'S A FLASH DRIVE.

LOOK,
YOU STUPID MOTHERFUCKERS

AREN'T GONNA GET AWAY
WITH THIS.

AND I'M GONNA BE THERE
AND I AM GONNA WATCH.

ARE YOU FUCKING INSANE?!

YOU DON'T JUST KILL
A GUY LIKE THAT!

I JUST DID.

I'M PLAYING BY THE RULES.

WHERE YOU LIVE,
THE RULES ARE DIFFERENT.

ALL RIGHT? HE SET ME UP,
HAD MY FRIEND KILLED,

TOOK HIS CHANCES
AND PAID THE PRICE.

BY THE WAY, I KNOW GUYS THAT
WOULD HAVE DONE HIM REAL SLOW.

THAT HURT?

[ BLUES MUSIC PLAYS ]

SO THAT'S THE WAY
IT WENT DOWN.

NOTHING MUCH CHANGED,

EXCEPT SOME PEOPLE GOT KILLED
THAT NOBODY'S EVER GONNA MISS.

AND I ENDED UP
NEEDING A NEW CAR,

SO I WENT OUT AND BOUGHT MYSELF
A SPECIAL RIDE.

WHY NOT?
YOU DON'T LIVE FOREVER.
