Dorothy, stay with me!

How could this happen, Dorothy?

Because I love you, dear.

What's wrong?

She's been stabbed!

Where?

Some random guy stabbed her in the gut!

Get her in the car now.

Can you hold on till we get to the hospital?

-I love you. -I love you too.

Close the door!

Hey! Give me a ride too!

Come with me.

There he is!

Thanks to you, this job went way better than expected.

Thank you. What's your name again?

-Laurent. -Oh, right. That's it.

You understand English, right?

Not just English. He's multilingual.

Way to go.

Who the heck are you people?

We're con artists.

Hugo's our target.

He preyed on poor people for small-time scams,

then used that money to become a rich, scumbag investor.

So we planned to fleece him out of every last penny.

From Hugo?

I finally got that fatso to fall for me after pretending to work in trading.

The typical German was a real tight-ass with his money.

When we looked through the list of his victims, what a surprise!

We found Laurent, a multilingual who's a poker pro.

I knew we could use you.

I strolled past you with Hugo for an emotional reunion.

Sure enough, you pulled your knife and bam!

That made our job a lot easier.

For the rest of the story, I'm saved by emergency surgery,

and Hugo and I share a tearful reunion in the ICU.

Through my oxygen mask, I vow my eternal love for him.

We get all his money when he buys stock in a fake company.

The end!

-Cheers! -Cheers!

Get it, Laurent?

Are you a stand-up comedian?

She can't make people laugh, but it's much the same.

If I really tried, everyone would die of laughter.

Can you introduce yourselves?

I'll start.

With my beauty, knowledge, stamina, acting skills

and a wide variety of talents,

I can successfully complete any scam.

I am the greatest con woman that ever walked the Earth, Dorothy.

She is the femme fatale con artist who taught me all about honey trapping.

The former bombshell, Mademoiselle Shi Ohn!

She'll keep you warm on winter nights.

And he's the multilingual lawyer and samurai con artist, Oz.

Lately, whenever he returns to Japan, his wife and kid are cold to him.

He's nicknamed "The Wizard."

"The Wizard"?

Because he always comes up with outrageous plans

and he looks like he's good at performing magic tricks.

See how he never talks?

That's not because he's a modest Japanese person.

I'll speak in English.

I'm nothing like a wizard.

"Oz" is my nickname because my last name is Ozaki.

Christ. Quit making up ridiculous nicknames for me just for fun.

Nice pronunciation.

I'm used to insincere comments like that.

In other words, you're a bunch of criminals.

We only scam crooks, and we never kill anyone.

-Never? -That's right. Never.

That's our rule.

I bet you feel a lot better after stabbing my guts out.

Forget about your need for revenge and start doing stuff that's way more fun.

Fun stuff?

Open your eyes and take it all in.

With the whole world as our stage, let's play con games!

You want me to partner with you?

We're not partners.

We're not friends or lovers either.

One mistake, and you're gone.

We're lone wolves.

CAJAMAR, SÃO PAULO, BRAZIL

I came to see it because you said it was São Paulo, but this is Cajamar!

And you want five million dollars for this barren wasteland?

Have you lost your mind?

There are 200 hectares of land.

Who gives a damn how many hectares there are?

This place has absolutely zero value!

Fabiana's grandfather came here to settle all the way from Japan 50 years ago.

He plowed the land with a hoe day and night.

FOR SALE

Fine. Then come see me again after you plow the whole thing again.

JFK AIRPORT, NEW YORK, USA

Has the client contacted us about that other deal?

Yes. They've agreed.

Good. That makes it easy.

Incidentally, about the next Destiny Park,

instead of opening a second park in Europe,

we should develop new business in South America.

South America is far too risky.

You should consider it carefully.

No. That's why we were too late getting into Asia.

The next hot spot will be São Paulo.

In Brazil?

-That's right. -Where in São Paulo?

Well, São Paulo...

São Paulo...

This barren land on the outskirts?

Yes, that's right.

Ca...

You mean Cajamar?

That's right. Cajamar.

I'd like to set up the infrastructure for tourism, build some hotels,

and establish a flashy resort there.

Should we invest around ten million?

Yes.

I thought it over.

I can't let your grandfather's efforts to develop the land go to waste.

-Cheers! -Cheers!

It went great! Yahoo!

"Well, São Paulo...

São Paulo..."

You totally blanked!

Let me do it again.

-Oh, give it a break. -"São Paulo... Where in São Paulo?"

MILAN, ITALY

Damn it! He always hurries his shot and misses!

So, what were you saying?

Some of the owners are trying to sell our club to Asians, of all people!

Not them again.

They should develop a league in their own country.

I mean, I'm not trying to diss Asians.

In fact, my own parents were immigrants,

but I was born and raised right here in Milan!

I couldn't possibly stand for

our beloved club to be sold to Asian upstarts!

You're absolutely right.

A soccer club belongs to everyone.

It's part of the city's history.

I know you'd understand, Don Vittorio!

There are more and more club executives who agree with our vision.

However...

Money, huh?

If only we could offer close to what they are.

Don, you're our last hope.

I've made up my mind!

I swear I'll never let what belongs to the Milanese...

Don't you think Oz is a really mysterious guy?

Normally, he's a serious square.

But then he comes up with these crazy plans as if out of nowhere.

It really amazes me.

Of course, they only succeed because of me.

I know I sound arrogant,

but I think you do a good job too.

When Shi Ohn first scouted you, I was against it.

You didn't look as smart as she said.

What's more, I heard you got an STD from some woman.

Well, the latter was true though.

You're all better now?

You know, you're far too kind to the ladies.

You'd go for anyone--

This is the only way to shut you up.

See? You'd go for anyone!

Of course, that doesn't bother me in the least.

If you're going to make a move, move in on a big target and not a woman.

By the way, I've still got a long list of rich crooks.

I love thinking every night about which one to take down--

SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA

You call these oysters?

Now I get it. You tried to scam me out of my money.

It's not my style to dump a woman in Port Jackson,

but I have to set an example.

Get it done.

Are you hurt?

Where's the money?

Yes!

Hey!

What? Hey, wait!

I love watching you sleep.

Because I'm not talking?

That's beautiful.

It's like a lucky charm.

I was left in front of a church in a bassinet.

I was holding this in my hand.

It makes me feel as if someone is watching over me.

How long will you keep it up?

You've made enough to live comfortably your whole life.

How long will you keep it up?

Laurent, everyone comes into this world for a different purpose.

It's their gift.

My gift is smoothly executing con games--

Reality doesn't always turn out as well as games do.

What are you trying to say?

Getting punched hurts. Getting shot will kill you.

That pendant won't protect you from that.

Let's quit while we're ahead.

We're neither partners nor family.

We're lone wolves. Strangers who slept together a few times.

Let's get married.

I knew it. You don't understand a thing.

Marriage is an archaic and repugnant contract.

Yes.

You must be kidding.

You know you're not cut out for it either.

You stay together until you get tired of each other and split.

That's all we need.

There's no need to chain ourselves together with a spell.

I want to cast that spell.

What?

I won't let you run free anymore.

Retire for me.

I don't want you to face any more danger.

I don't like cold places.

But since I was little, I've always wanted to see them.

FINLAND

I'm beat.

So am I.

Carry me.

In a little bit.

Why not, you meanie?

Fine.

We're almost there.

Can you believe the weather is clear on our first day?

I must be lucky.

It's good enough here.

You can open them now.

Fine.

I'll let you cast your spell on me.

Just one thing.

Promise me we'll have a blast!

-Cheers! -Cheers!

Congratulations.

Thank you.

Do you two get it on every day?

To be honest, I've been considering for a long time

whether I should retire and return to Japan.

-To Miki and Makoto, right? -Yes.

I hope they haven't forgotten you.

Every time I go back, they nag me about it.

Introduce us sometime.

Don't be ridiculous.

You'd be a horrible influence on Makoto.

What are your plans, Shi Ohn?

Traveling all over the world isn't good for my back.

I'll take it easy somewhere.

I guess we're all retiring.

It's kind of a relief.

Not exactly an exciting ending though.

You don't like it?

I'd like a little more excitement.

Haven't you had enough?

Say, let's pull off one big final gig.

Something out of this world!

A humongous one, perfect for our finale!

A finale, huh?

I like it.

-What about you, Laurent? -What?

Fine, I'll do it.

All right! That settles it.

Okay, Oz! Show us your incredible magic one last time!

With pleasure.

There's a Chinese mafia gang called Shanghai Longhu-bang.

They've been raking in the dough lately from human trafficking

that the Japanese mafia got them involved in.

The name of their boss is Liu Xiao. He likes playing mahjong.

He learned Japanese mahjong and got hooked on it.

Excuse me. Can I sit here?

This must be where I come in.

It's the kind of odds and psychology that you're good at.

I win.

I got a Riichi, Tan'yaochuu, Mixed Triple Chow, and a bonus score tile.

I'm embarrassed. This is a cheap win.

A self-pick win!

I win.

Self-pick win.

What? Just how many times has he won?

Seems like I'm exceptionally lucky today.

I win. Four concealed triplets and a Yakuman.

Waiting on a single tile?

I don't know who you are,

but you're pretty good.

Hey, you punk!

-Watch your mouth! -It's all right.

I like capable people.

If we changed to Chinese scoring rules,

you wouldn't be able to win so easily.

No matter the scoring rules,

I'll definitely be the winner.

UNKNOWN NUMBER

Who's this?

What's happening here? There's so much blood.

The hell? What happened?

Tell me your name.

Laurent...

How are you?

Are you hurt?

I'm fine.

You saved my life.

-Are you fully recovered? -Yes.

Thank goodness a doctor happened to pass by then.

The only good thing about me is my luck.

That's why I know a lot of languages.

What are you trying to say?

For example,

if I have good luck, I can make new friends through mahjong.

And when I have more friends,

it helps me remember languages more easily.

Other than English,

I also know a little bit of French, German, Italian, Spanish,

Russian, Korean, and Japanese.

And Chinese, of course.

If that's the case, why didn't you get a job as a diplomat?

That's impossible for me.

So, why don't you hire me?

I'll be your interpreter, as well as a mahjong buddy.

How does that sound?

It's a deal.

Hello! Please take a look at our fifth auction of the day...

I'll play a wealthy Japanese guy and buy up all the kids.

The perfect role for you.

Of course. I'll find them foster parents later.

Are you going to buy all of them?

Japanese men are so horny.

Come close.

We can discuss the money later.

How about this?

Do you have any kids here that I can groom into someone with the vibe of royalty?

It's hard to come across an auction like this.

I have no choice but to ask this from you.

Then Laurent will introduce them to Shi Ohn, who'll play a broker.

What will we sell to them?

Ethiopia?

She'll explain it this way.

There's still a lot of unrest in Ethiopia now.

Anti-government forces want a revival of the fallen Ethiopian Empire.

To make this revolution happen, they need a descendant of the dynasty.

Imagine the power and fame you'll get by being associated with royalty.

Once you've got that, you can do as you please.

See? The benefits are unlimited!

To avoid politics and war, the empress is living in hiding

in Japan.

Why would an Ethiopian empress be living in Japan?

It was Dorothy's request.

And why Kyoto? She'll stand out!

Isn't it obvious?

Because I wanted to go there.
