You're about to be letting on the most highly classified data America holds.

We have a device that can allow us to send one human being back in time.

Of us now.

Tinka. Family.

Thank you, Martin.

Very different than L .A.

Yes, Mon.

Very different.

Not so good, I think.

I wouldn't say that.

Beautiful country.

Good people.

Delicious food.

I think L .A. must be better.

Why? Play cards.

Basketball. I like Shaquille O 'Neal very much.

Yeah, I like Shaquille.

Stop what you're doing.

Look at what you've done.

Listen to my heart cry for you.

Stop.

I own this town.

You wouldn't even be here if you hadn't moved your way under my invite to the

DEFCON tech convention. Oh, gee, a flea market for spook paraphernalia. I can't

wait. Hey, it's only the showplace for the most advanced surveillance

on the planet. Now, Vital, let's not go get too excited now. I'm excited, that's

for sure.

Friends, let the games begin.

Well, you won't need that.

And if it doesn't, if using this is the only thing that stands in failure and

salvation for our people, I won't hesitate.

Will you?

No.

Dear lad, after all we've been through, would you have ever dreamed that our

country's war could be won in an American gambling casino?

Viva Las Vegas.

Viva Africa. Viva Africa.

Yes, oh, that's very nice.

Wow, what are you up to?

Oh, $230.

Well, that's some system.

It's just an exercise, really, a simple modification of Duncan Heath's

probability pattern.

And a big old natural healthy note. We'll pass luck.

Come on, baby.

Daddy needs a new pair of mainframes.

Why don't you just face it, buddy? It's

just not your night.

Give me the cards.

Deck change, sir.

So, who's that? The emperor of Las Vegas?

Yep. His name's Donnie Hayes. He owns the Fortuna Casino next door.

Yeah, and a few other casinos, too. Used to manage just about every boxing champ

in every division. Made a fortune.

Made more than a fortune. The guy fixed spikes. He ruined great careers.

He was a real kingpin in the underworld.

Well, if he's so wealthy, why is he supposed to obtain this? I mean, he's

almost as loud as yours is, father.

He came by class, baby.

Not like we got.

No, no.

Are you sure you don't want to do something a little less masochistic with

time, Mr. Parker? What exactly do you have in mind?

Oh, I don't know. Maybe something that brings out the animal in me.

Baby.

Did she just say baby? Mm, girl done got all the way vacant.

Lead the way, honey.

Great. The show starts in ten minutes. What show?

Rick Thomas.

Who? You know, Rick Thomas, the amazing magician.

Oh, that Rick Thomas.

Yes, you know, the one that turns a lady into a tiger. Come on, Olga, you gotta

be kidding. Oh, please.

No one else will go with me. Well, take the hint.

His lady wears a bikini. Okay.

Hey, let's go, let's go, let's go. Come on, guys, we're on the clock.

Oh,

I won $500, I know. Where do you think you're going?

Hell. Oh, well, it's just an exercise. How many times did you win in a row?

Only 22.

Interesting, my streak ended as soon as I finished a cookie pop.

Don't you just hate irony?

Well, of course, technically, that's not irony.

Coincidence, maybe.

Okay, showtime, Mr. Parker. Come on, let's go.

Here, Ramsey, maybe you can do something with this.

Oh, no, no, look, I don't gamble. Besides, as long as you're conscious,

duty. Oh, at ease, Mr. Ramsey. I will take full responsibility for Mr. Parker

for the next two hours.

Two hours?

Yes! Oh, come on!

What's going on?

I think I just got a reprieve.

Sure. Lock down the table.

Cover the exit.

We'll have emergency power back in about 60 seconds.

I guess it really shut this joint down, huh?

I say we hit another casino.

Why not? You can't get any work.

What about my tiger?

Mr.

Parker! Hey, fellas, I know a shortcut.

I'm through first. Time to set the cart.

Let's move it, gentlemen. Come on, let's go.

Very good job, guys.

Let's move.

That means you too, Henry. But, Ted, we didn't get it all. We got what we need,

and we ought to let go.

I'm not your wing.

Thanks a lot.

Where's Henry?

Hey, what the hell's this guy's body?

The place would be out of a lot of money if it weren't for me.

All right.

What the hell happened, Parker?

Something wrong, Frank?

Yeah.

I know him. His name is Della Shivers.

He saved my life once.

You know, that's irony.

Sir, we're detecting a gas leak in area four.

We interrupt this program to bring you a Susie and special report.

Tragedy struck America's gambling capital tonight as an explosion ripped

the Fortuna Casino in Las Vegas.

Over 150 deaths have been reported thus far and nearly 500 injured.

Investigators have identified this man, former Army Lieutenant Dellard Tyrone -

Linda! Linda!

Linda!

Tell her.

Oh, God.

I was pinned down by enemy fire on a hillside in Ghana in 94. My whole team

dead and I knew my number was up.

I'm on the radio sending back as much intel as I can before they waste me when

this chocolate pilot breaks in and asks for my coordinate.

I told him it was too hot, but he came back saying he can't, never could.

Throw out two smoke bombs so I know it's you. I'm coming in. Why would a man

like that want to rob an American casino?

I have no idea.

Please tell me this was some kind of whacked out CAA staff move.

Sorry, Frank. Delos Shivers quit the company three years ago, man. He was on

own. And that crack team of his was nothing but a handful of Algerian

students. Had about as much business robbing a casino as Beavis and Butthead.

Shivers was a good guy, that much I know.

Why in hell would he get involved in something like this?

Finding that out isn't your mission, Frank. Nearly 200 people died in that

explosion, with over 800 injured.

Many of them highly placed members of the international intelligence

who were at the DEFCON convention.

Sounds like an act of terrorism to me.

Well, the FBI doesn't think so, Nate.

They believe the explosion was caused when the charge the thieves used to cut

the electrical power accidentally set off the underground gas line.

In any case, the NSA panel has authorized a back step to prevent it.

do it.

100%. Engage.

We've got to take out an entire wing of the Fortuna Casino Saturday night.

Since when did we become city maintenance?

There were over a thousand casualties at the DEFCON convention, Nathan.

Was I killed?

I wish.

We'll have a tech crew seal off the area and correct the problem.

If you don't mind, sir, I'd like to hang around and make sure the job gets done

right. As long as you're telling me there was nothing more to it.

Just the gas pipe, sir.

Nothing more.

All is yours.

Sir.

He doesn't know Jack about sewer pipes. He's just trying to score some

unauthorized R &R.

Well, you're going to the DEFCON convention anyway, Nate. You can keep an

him. He deserves a little slack once in a while.

All right, Frank, you've got 48 hours, but I want to know where you are at all

times. I'll be staying at the Tropicana, and, sir?

Yes, Frank?

Thank you very much. I love you.

I knew he was alive.

Much too long since we've seen you, Frank.

I know. I wish this were a social visit, but it's really important, I find.

I'm going to practice, Mom.

Martin, this is Frank Parker, a friend of your father's and mine.

Hello. Hi.

Did you serve with my father in the American military?

Yes, I did.

Then you are a hero, like him.

Well, nobody's quite like your father, Martin.

I know.

Well, nice to meet you, Mr. Parker.

I hope we get the chance to talk more someday.

Me too.

Hey, hey, hey.

What's up with all the kids, Linda?

Adopted. We have seven now.

Really? Yeah, they're all war orphans from Del's family homeland in Africa.

Those missions he flew over there got him curious to trace his roots.

Found them in Anaba, province of Algeria.

That's a hot spot these days.

Yeah, Del had got more involved than either of us anticipated.

He quit the company and went into relief work full time.

He's out of town now trying to raise money.

Do you know where I could find him? Phone number, maybe?

Yeah.

I have his cell phone number.

Stella Shivers.

Hey, D.

Hey, Ethan.

Frank Parker.

D. You know this man?

We served together in the CIA.

How'd you find me, Frank?

Traced the phone number Linda gave me.

So you're still with the company?

Kind of.

Look, I know you're planning to rob the Fortuna Saturday night.

How's that?

I can't tell you how I know.

D, you saved my life once. This is my chance to return the favor.

My life means nothing.

Not compared to that of a whole wreath.

Did you meet my boy Martin?

Yeah, nice kid.

He's going to UCLA next fall.

Math scholarship.

Two years ago, he watched his entire family slaughtered by warriors from an

enemy tribe in Africa.

The Hamadan.

Now, they call this a tribal war, but it's genocide, Frank.

Clean and simple.

I'm sorry to hear that, D, but what's this got to do with robbing a casino?

It's Sonny Hayes' place.

Sonny Hayes laundered drug money through his casino.

He's using it to finance the thugs who are killing my people.

Why?

Why else?

Location, location, location.

The area in Africa where my people live is on the northern coast.

White sand beaches, a tropical paradise.

Sonny Hayes took one look at it, and the wreck was history.

Bugsy Siegel looked out over a patch of barren desert in Nevada and said, Hey.

Hey. This paradise is 500 miles from Monaco, 500 miles from the French

Riviera. That's an hour plane ride from just about every major capital in

Europe. Closer than New York and Chicago is to Los Angeles.

Bunny Hayes.

Fake.

On the African Gold Coast.

Dang! I like the ring of that.

My people have refused to sell out to Western imperialism for centuries.

They held out against the Dutch, French, English.

Now Sonny Hayes comes along, a black man who looks at my people like so much

brush to be cleared.

He's fueling age -old tribal hatreds to get the real estate he wants.

Hayes is planning a big shipment this weekend with the leader of the Hamadan,

$50 million.

That's enough to bury my tribe for good.

And you got a better plan for this money.

Who?

Shelter? Arms? Whatever it takes to keep my people alive.

Unless you stop me.

Are you gonna stop me, Frank?

This isn't the way to get what you want, D. You gotta back off.

Can't. Never could.

If you don't, you're gonna die.

Look, Frank, with my people, when one man saves another man's life, he owns

for the rest of their days.

Now, We're Americans. We don't believe in that stuff.

We're too sophisticated, too civilized.

But that day when I flew in and picked your ass up on that hill, artillery

chewing up my chopper tail, I knew that something changed in the both of us.

Something way down below our sophisticated, civilized souls.

So I'm asking you, if you owe me anything, just turn the other way on me.

Just turn and walk away.

a problem, friend?

I don't know.

No, I ain't.

Well, you were staring.

Now, I know I'm a well -dressed man, but it's something in those eyes.

They're reptile -like, you know?

You know who I am, don't you?

You're the king of Vegas.

That's right.

I'm the king.

And if I don't like the look of somebody, they're gone.

And I never have to see them again.

Otherwise... What's the use in being king?

What's your name, Frank?

Frank B. Parker.

Well, Frank B. Parker, this here is a lucky token. I guarantee

it. So why don't you go out there and play something and keep those reptile

off me, okay?

Well, I checked in with a buddy of mine over at the FBI, and guess what?

They're investigating Hayes for money laundering.

Mm -hmm.

And fight fiction, illegal drug distribution, extortion, obstruction of

And he's slippery, too.

The feds have yet to come up with enough hard evidence to make anything stick.

Figures. Okay, now, Frank, I came through on my end.

Now it's your turn.

You didn't tell Thomas everything, did you?

Are you in some kind of trouble or what?

Don't worry, I'm not in trouble.

Yet.

Put the gun down. I think I'll wait to hear what he has to say first. Put it

down.

I'm gonna help you with the robbery.

We do this thing my way, all the way, or we don't do it at all.

Why, Frank?

Why would you want to do that?

As Whitey said, I owe you.

What have you tried to entrap us?

You seem awful anxious to pull that trigger, Cliff. For something I'm

die for, in a heartbeat.

Then what makes you any different from the man who tried to kill your people?

Now look what you've done. You probably sent them here. They saw your gun, you

idiot. Now drop it like they said so I can get us off the hook.

It's all right, officers.

NSA. Working a case for federal jurisdiction.

These are my informants. I can handle it from here.

Put your hands on the vehicle.

Run the ID.

We'll wait.

Is that ID real?

You better hope so.

Sorry, sir.

It's no problem.

Appreciate your concern.

You all have a good day.

Why should we trust you?

You've been robbed at a casino before.

Let's just say I know how things can go wrong.

I'll be a touch.

Frank.

Thanks.

Oh, guys, what a pleasant surprise.

Yeah, well, Talmadge figured we could use a breather.

Yeah, so they all horned in on my invite to the DEFCON Tech Convention over at

the Fortuna.

Right. Nice shirt, Mr. Parker.

Oh, thank you.

You're welcome.

Yeah, I didn't know they made those for guys.

Come on, we're wasting time. Daddy needs a new pair of mainframes. Oh, yeah.

Come on, baby.

You okay, man?

Yeah, sure.

Very good.

Do you want your glasses?

Is that better?

Let me ask you something.

How restricted is your movement by that chair?

My chair?

Oh, excuse me.

Mind if I borrow him for a minute?

What's the problem?

Pallet. Huh?

Question.

Ah.

Purely theoretical.

Oh, how can I help you?

In the last timeline, the power to this place in the Fortuna went out when the

main line from the street was disrupted.

What I want to know is, is there any other way the power could be cut for a

larger area? I mean, like several blocks around town.

Theoretically?

Theoretically.

I knew it. You're up to something, huh? You're up to something.

Come on, give me a break.

No, don't worry. Your secret's safe with me. I mean, I'd never get out of the

lab if it wasn't for you. So you'll find out.

Well, I've kind of got my hands full right now.

No, no, but hey, what's the little hacking between friends, huh? I

it. 12 .45, the African deposit arrives in the vault at the Fortuna.

12 .55, William Henry Thomas and I enter the Tropicana next door.

We head straight to the laundry room, which shares a common wall with the

Fortuna's vault.

One o 'clock, Clifford cuts the main power to the street from the sewer, and

use an explosive in the laundry cart to put a hole in the wall.

Can't do that without risking cutting off the gas main.

It's only a small charge.

And I'm telling you, it's a bad idea.

You gotta hold back on the C4 and cut the power in several areas of town to

confuse the cops and not bring them straight down on you.

And where do we do that?

Hoover Dam.

We cut the power there, we get multiple outages across the city, and divert the

police away from our target.

Fine. Now, once the power's cut, we've got about 60 seconds before the

power comes on. We blow the wall, we grab the cats, and we go out the same

we came in. Sounds fine.

As long as nobody gets greedy.

What? What are you looking at me for? One other thing.

No guns.

What? You heard me.

Something goes wrong. I don't want this turning into a bloodbath. If I get a

funny feeling in there about anything...

We all just walk away.

I can't walk like this.

We have planned this for months.

Two days ago, I didn't even know this man. Now he's running a whole operation.

You don't have a choice.

We have the choice to kill you. And you'd be arrested in 15 minutes.

You've told someone else about our plan.

It's a possibility.

Do you feel lucky?

We listen to him.

Hey, Parker, look.

Now, I need to know where you are at all times. Okay, I'm going to be with her.

Are we having fun yet? I have a favor to ask of you, Mr. Parker. You're going to

say no, but please realize this would mean a great deal to us. I'd love to.

You'd love to what?

Take you to see Rick Thomas, the magician with the tiger.

We've been here before, haven't we?

Want to hear all the juicy details?

There never will be juicy details, Mr. Parker.

But, um, tell me.

Did we ever actually go to the magic show? We did not, but we

could tonight. How does the late show sound?

Wonderful. Like I said, Nate, I'll be with her.

So, you feeling lucky tonight? Too soon to tell.

Yeah, well, if you ask me, it's not looking too good, Frank.

Pardon me.

Oh, here we are, Florence.

Come on up.

So what's up?

Well, I was hoping you'd tell me. I get a call from a buddy of mine who says

he's sending a videotape over to Ramsey. Finally catching up with Titanic, is

he? No, no, it's a routine police stop, only he's got you on it with two other

guys, and one of them's got a gun on him. Big brother's everywhere.

No, no, stop it, Frank, man. It's routine.

Whenever somebody uses the ID to get out of a jam with the locals, and you know

it. And what the hell is going on? I'm helping out a friend.

So what, it's got you in a hairy situation?

He's one of the good guys, Donovan. Well, let me help, man. Well, the best

for you to do that is to stay away from this.

Frank.

Frank, you're not expendable. One of us is, Donovan, but not both.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. What's this for?

Dead on me tonight.

You haven't forgotten about our date, have you, Mr. Parker? How could I?

Always wanted to watch a lady turn into a tiger.

Keep dreaming.

Parker said no guns.

Parker talks too much.

Where's Parker?

He's watching the show with Olga, man.

Yeah, I knew he was up to something. I just got the goods on him.

I don't mind telling you, Mr. Parker, this is a big thrill for me. Not many

people know this, but I'm a cat person.

Mr. Parker?

Glad you could make it.

This is the world, D.

You were here a minute ago.

Why, what's going on?

Oh, God.

What move?

we do with the race?

What?

You heard the man. Let's go.

Wait.

Hey, what's up? What are you doing, Frank?

Oh, wandering money.

I can't let you rob a casino. You crazy?

Oh, just trust me on this one, Donovan. Frank, right around the door, this dude

got a funky wheel.

You're going to put me on hands if I don't look for this.

Where is Chris?

Who the hell is Chris?

Shouldn't they be out by now?

Something's come up.

A wild card.

An old friend of Shiva's from his days in Black Ops who insisted on being a

of this.

His name's Frank Packard.

Reptile. What?

You should have told me he was a problem sooner, Clifford.

This would have been handled.

There's no problem at all, Mr. Hayes.

Everything will work out as we plan.

The security people will kill Shibaza and his rebels as they're trying to

escape.

You get your property, and I become a rich man.

What, now you come here sensitive? Shut up. What?

Clifford, he must have sold you out. That's why he made sure he wasn't here

time around. You're not making any sense, Parker. Never mind. What matters

that we walk away from this. But we've made it. We've got the money. Get in

truck and you're a dead man.

It's my call on this one.

Okay.

I don't hear the shooting.

Something ain't right. Parker, he must have changed something.

Well, then you go kill that son of a bitch, and I mean right now!

You get the hell away from here and don't go back to the house, all right?

Call this number and let me know where you are.

Guess my people's dreams die hard. Oh, my God.

$500. I don't believe it.

Oh.

Maybe they're not dead yet.

Go, go, go, go, go. Call me.

Congratulations.

Come on, lady. Give me a break. Just this once. Come on.

How's that winning streak going? Great. How many times have you won so far?

Well, so far, it's been pretty good. Never mind.

I'm in.

Uh -oh.

Oh, sorry.

Dang.

Whoa.

Balls and notes.

Right here, breaking the bank.

Number two? Me too.

Hold it.

How many times is that?

Twenty -two. No, twenty -one.

Oh, I've lost count.

No candy.

Yes, it's down to the stick.

Did you want me to save you some?

No, wait, that's too much according to my system.

Is this one of your feelings, Mr. Parker? Yeah, no idea.

Do it before I lose my door.

That's good, sir.

Follow the motion.

No more bets.

Expect to see you again.

Don't look so happy about it.

Because you didn't get the money?

You'll sell yourself short if you think that's all your people need. That's what

my people need now.

Then maybe this will help.

Oh, my goodness.

How'd you get this out?

Right through the front door.

I had a little luck after you left. About $5 million worth of luck.

And now that Hayes is out of the picture, maybe this will help your

somewhat.

What happened to Hayes?

Don't worry about it. Just trust me, all right?

Anyway, I got to split.

Keep doing what you do best.

You're one of the good guys.

Wait.

I know you really never knew your family, Frank.

But... You're one of my people, man.

Legendary casino king Sonny Hayes was arrested today after the federal

investigation of a failed robbery attempt at his Fortuna Casino Saturday

And the feds finally got the evidence they needed to take down Hayes.

It's all because of you, isn't it, Frank?

Hey, you blow a hole in a casino vault, somebody's going to stick their nose

inside. No, but was that what this was all about, man, taking down Sonny Hayes?

Look, all I can tell you is sometimes you've got to do the wrong thing to get

the right thing done. Come on, Frank, you've got to tell me the whole story,

man. You really want to know?

What, my best friend tries to rob a casino? Hell yeah, I want to know.

Oh, stop.

Don't do this, Frankie.

You know nobody calls me Frankie. Well, I think after last night I heard Frankie

call you Tiffany.

Oh, stop.

Oh, you believe me. Oh, no.
