Castle Falls (2021) Movie Script

That's good.

All right, three rounds.

I wanna finish, but don't

leave it up to me.

Time.

Vince is in the office.

We got a lot of

talented guys coming up.

Young guys.

Potential's all I

got to work with.

This ain't news, Mike.

Vince, come on, please

just get me a fight, right?

170, 185, flippin'

205 if I have to.

You... you got submitted

in your last three fights.

None of my sponsors are gonna touch you.

Okay, look.

I shouldn't have let you fight

injured. Some of that's on me.

Yeah, well don't worry about

that 'cause I got the surgery

and the shoulder feels good, right?

I'm ready to get back in there,

come on Vince, please, please!

Mike, you're a friend.

But I'm trying to

run a business.

You're a sparring partner.

Oh, I'm a

sparring partner, am I?

Not a contender.

You don't have the

killer instinct.

I can't make you into something you're not.

I'm sorry, it's over.

I came here because you

sold me on this gym.

I came here 'cause of you.

Remember that?

And now you're just gonna

turn around and say,

that's it, you're finished?

It's a young man's game.

You know this.

Right, don't do this to me.

Okay, you got a lotta good,

talented fighters here, yeah?

Good talent, but they haven't

got what I've got, right?

They don't have the experience,

they don't have the

knowledge of the game.

Vince, I'm begging you, please.

Mike, I don't know what else to

say, I'm sorry.

Right, you let me fight for it

then, right now.

- Mike...

- No, you give me one last shot.

Right, you owe me.

I'll fight your

golden boy out there,

right now, today, let's do it.

He's six weeks out

from a fight,

and you're not even in shape.

Yeah, well he's not

gonna have an excuse

when I kick the crap out of him

then, is he?

Come on, Vince.

One last shot.

I fight him right

now, and if I win?

You put me on the next card.

If he wins, then fine, fine.

I'm done, I'll walk away.

You're fucking nuts.

Okay I did it, he's done.

You don't have

the killer instinct.

It's over.

I'm gonna have to get a guard

dog now that you're leaving.

We are gonna miss you.

I'll hold onto that deposit,

and we'll just call that

the last three months' rent.

You're a good man, Phil.

I really appreciate everything

you've done for me.

See you around, Phil.

You keep

your head up, huh?

Don't worry about

me, Phil, I'm good.

Hey Mike, when's

your next fight?

Come here, lads.

Think maybe you guys

should take over, don't you?

- Thank you.

- There you go.

- Thank you.

- Let's go.

- Stay out of trouble.

- Yes, sir.

It's a young man's game.

Skills, degrees?

Did a bit of construction

back in the UK,

in between fights.

Other than that, though...

Oh, here we go, you're in luck.

Oh yeah, what have you got?

They've been at it a week,

but there's a couple days left.

What is it, construction?

Not exactly construction,

but it's close.

All right, buddy?

I'm here for the, uh, you know,

the construction.

You a temp worker?

Yeah, Wades, Mike Wades.

Oh.

Yeah, here ya are.

All right man,

just head up there.

Cheers, man.

You guys are here because some

bigwig down at city hall

said I don't get a contract

unless I fulfill

some local hiring

mandate bullshit.

You guys aren't on my roster,

so if you ever wanna

see a paycheck,

don't lose your time card.

Now, everything you see

in here has gotta go.

If it's not supporting

something, rip it down.

If you got a question about

something, come find me.

Can't find me?

Rip it down.

While you're doing that,

demolition crew will be placing explosives

on the first, fourth,

and eighth floors,

so stay out of there.

Elevators are coming out

tomorrow, which reminds me,

the freight elevator

goes until five.

Use it till then.

After that, take the stairs.

The power's on until we're

finished, any questions?

Good.

Wade, Diaz, grab a sledgehammer.

Windows indoors, start from the

top and work your way down.

Hey.

- Hey, Dad.

- How you feeling, sweetheart?

Better.

A little tired.

Do you need anything?

I'm good, I'm good.

Here, have some water.

Okay.

- Everything okay?

- Yeah, yeah, I'm fine.

Sure.

Wanna watch some

more of that movie,

before I gotta go to work?

We always watch this.

Yeah, but it's funny.

Used to like it as a kid.

Come on.

All right.

Here we go, movie time.

Good morning, sir.

- Hey, Emily.

- Hi.

Mr. Ericson, do you mind if

I speak with you for a moment?

Yeah, we're just

watching a movie.

Just give me a second? I just...

This is funny.

Your teeth are so bad

whenever people wanna say hi

to you in the hallway

they wanna punch

you out of despair!

Yeah.

You just get some sleep.

I'm sorry, Mr. Ericson, but...

this is gonna be my last

visit until I get paid.

Well, I'm waiting for the check

from the insurance company.

Once I get it, you'll

get your money.

I'm just, I am so sorry.

But I cannot come back here

until I get my money.

Okay, that's them.

Hold on a second.

Yeah, hello.

One second.

We'll work it out, don't worry.

It'll be fine.

Yeah, one second, one second.

Okay, hold on, hold on.

Okay, what do you

mean it's not covered?

Your policy only covers

a portion of the treatments

with insurance money.

Yeah, but that's what her

doctor recommended.

He said she's strong enough to

accept the transplant.

She can't do any

more chemotherapy.

She's very sick now.

Yes, but because of

how they do this procedure,

we have to classify

it as experimental.

Your policy only covers

the first 50,000 dollars.

Okay, so, uh,

how much is it gonna cost?

What do I have to pay?

Well, your portion of the bill

would be approximately

400,000 dollars.

Mr. Ericson, are

you still there?

But, there's gotta be

something else, right?

Like, my house isn't

even worth that much.

There's gotta be like

a supplemental policy

or something, right?

Mr. Ericson, I'm really sorry,

but this is

the policy you have.

Okay, thanks.

I'll figure something out.

Come on, take me back

to my block, huh?

Lando,

got your ticket to east block.

Some people over there wanna

have a word with you.

Fuck you, man.

This is bullshit.

I wanna talk to Ericson, you hear me?

Forget Ericson.

His daughter has cancer.

He's gonna be busy

with her funeral.

You'll be dealing with me now.

You owe Damien Glass some money.

Look, I don't want no problems.

I ain't got nothin'

to do with that.

Where's your fucking money?

Hey, hey, break it up!

Mayor's gonna speak.

How do you know that?

I was just down there.

Wade, Diaz!

What the hell

are you guys doing?

Nothin', we ain't doin' nothin'.

Yeah, no shit.

Listen, all the metal,

copper, aluminum, needs to be

separated. This is important.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, we got it, we

got it, no problem.

And somebody took some

fruit off of a spread

we set up for the mayor.

You wouldn't happen to know

anything about that, would ya?

Mm-mm.

Oh by the way, I didn't get

a chance to say before,

but I really appreciate

the opportunity.

You know, I really needed this.

Then get to it.

We ain't paying you

two to dick around.

How much fruit can

a mayor eat, huh?

Here.

I've heard it said

the Castle Heights hospital

is a reflection of

the neighborhood.

But to see it in

its current state of decay,

and to equate it with the people

of this community,

is to do them a

great disservice.

I too was born inside the

segregated walls of this building,

but we're not here

to dwell on the past.

Not when there's work to be

done for our future.

It's with that work in mind

that I stand before you today

and humbly ask

for your support, as

I run for reelection.

The

city of Birmingham is partnering

with some of the finest

businesses in the world,

to create a new commercial

district right here.

We ain't going anywhere.

We're here

to better ourselves.

We're here to better

Birmingham, Alabama.

This Sunday, the Castle falls!

Hey, guard.

Let me talk to the lieutenant.

Hey, you hear me?

Let me talk to Ericson!

Hey, let me talk to Ericson!

You better have something

real important to tell me.

I got a proposition for you.

Move me back to south block.

They gonna kill me if you don't.

I'm sorry, I don't make

deals with inmates.

Take it up with the warden.

You know I can't trust

nobody else in here.

I need you to hear me out.

- Okay, we're done here.

- Look, it's money in it for you.

I'm talking a lot of money.

I'm trying to help you out.

You got a family, don't you?

Don't talk about my family.

You got a daughter, right?

I know you wanna help

your daughter out, right?

Don't you fucking mention my daughter!

Don't you talk about my fucking daughter!

Get the fuck off of me.

Shut the fuck up,

motherfucker, shut up!

Shut the fuck up!

You don't talk about my family,

you understand?

...man, I'm telling you.

Don't

mention my family!

I just found out.

Why would Ericson move him

back to south block?

What's he give a shit?

Didn't think he would, based on

how their little powwow played out.

So why move him, then?

Unless he's getting paid off,

and that was all a show for the camera.

Ericson never struck me

as the bribe-able type.

Never can tell.

You know, he's the only reason

Lando ain't dead

in the first place.

And I hear that he needs a lot of

money for his daughter's surgery.

Something like 400 grand.

He's getting paid by Lando?

That's my money payin' him.

Who's got my outside line?

Time to let my brother loose.

Ericson wants to pull strings?

Let's pull some fuckin' strings.

Let's pull some strings.

I'll be back, and

don't forget me.

Hey, Deacon.

We got a problem.

Come on.

So how'd it go?

Tested 90 percent pure.

Saved 50 grand, too.

Your brother needs to

upgrade his suppliers.

You gonna tell him they were

outbid by some Mexicans?

You see, my brother...

Mm-hm?

He's a victim of

his own ideology.

Me, on the other hand...

Mm-hm?

Only thing I care about

is money and power.

Mmm.

He just called.

Little problem we

gotta take care of.

We're getting rich, baby.

The president spoke today

with France's prime minister

after the incident.

In other news, a New

Jersey case is now...

Shh.

You wanna make a deal, Lando?

Start talking.

Tell me everything.

Look, Damian's moving dope up

and down the highway,

and maybe he's getting tipped

at checkpoints, I don't know.

But he started making detours

through the hospital park,

and he and everybody knows

the park belong to me.

So you stole his money and

now he wants you dead?

Shoot that, plus his money back.

How much?

Three million, cash.

Yeah.

Look.

If I can't get it,

I want something for it.

Move me back to south block.

All right, done.

Where's the money now?

Castle Falls Hospital.

Now we're turning it

over to our weather.

We have some low

clouds around today.

Expect clouds to thin out...

Hey, Deacon.

Think I know where your

brother's money is.

There ya are.

'Sup?

Hoo.

You know, I used to

live here, you know?

You used to live here?

I thought it was a hospital.

Mm, children's

residential center.

This floor and the seventh,

in the tower, yeah.

It was kinda like an orphanage

for kids whose parents died,

or went to jail.

Not my mom, though, no. She, uh,

she just worked all

the time, never home,

so judge decided it

was better for me

to spend more time here than,

you know, by myself.

- Really?

- Mm-hmm.

I had no idea that

they could do that.

Neither did she.

This place was kinda

like a spot for kids

who were waiting to

get into foster care,

but really it was for the kids

that got kicked out.

Two years, yep.

You know, I could go home on the weekends,

but those kids did not like that.

Mexican kid with a deal?

Used to beat my ass

every chance they got.

Fuck this place.

I would've knocked

it down for free.

- I'm Mike.

- George.

- How you doing?

- Good.

Yeah, they were saying

the elevators are out.

Keeps you fit though, right?

I guess.

So what's up with you, man?

What's up with that accent,

where you from?

Me, I'm from Birmingham.

You know, the one in

the UK, the original.

What the hell are you doing over here?

I've been asking myself the same

thing, to be honest.

You ever hear of Paramount Gym?

Yeah, yeah, yeah,

the MMA... the MMA gym.

The one in Atlanta

with all the champions.

That's the one, I

trained there, yeah.

Wait a minute, wait a minute.

I've seen you before, man.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,

I knew you looked familiar, man, yeah!

You... I saw your fight

- at the convention center, dude.

- You saw me fight?

Yeah, you knocked the

hell outta the guy,

the mean ugly guy

with the mohawk.

Oh that guy, yeah, yeah, real nice

piece of work. You saw that fight?

- Yeah.

- Yeah?

- Knocked him out with a spin kick, right?

- Yeah, I remember.

Oh man.

I can't believe

you saw that fight.

He got ya.

I got it.

Not a contender.

You know, I'm starting

to like this stuff.

No you don't, since when?

Since you play it all the time.

You know, but I prefer the classics.

Biggie, Tupac, they

were, you know, poets.

I don't understand what these new

guys are saying half the time.

Don't worry, I'll teach you.

- This is one of my favorites.

- Oh yeah?

Dad!

Oh shit, I'm sorry.

Are you okay?

Yeah, yeah, I'm good, I'm good.

Can you, uh,

can you ask Leah to come

over this afternoon?

'Cause I gotta do some stuff

with work, you know?

- I may be late.

- I can be at home one night by myself.

Yeah, but she wanted to see you,

and I.

- Okay, I will.

- All right.

Whoa.

Okay.

Just the way she

used to make it.

I miss Mom so much.

Yeah.

Yeah, I miss her too.

She'd be so proud of you.

Like it?

It's good.

Everything's gonna

be fine, don't worry.

So what are

you doing after this?

I don't know, man.

Try and get in somewhere, I guess.

Depends who's hiring.

What, you got something?

I just meant like, today.

A bunch of us are gonna go down to the

bar and watch this place come down on TV.

Oh yeah, sure man.

Sorry, I thought you meant you

had a lead on a job or something.

- I mean, actually I might.

- Yeah?

It seems legit, just didn't know

if you'd be interested, you know?

Hey listen, mate.

If the money's real, I'm interested.

Dump everything down

the elevator shaft.

They're rigging charges

in the compactor.

They're behind schedule.

There's 12 floors,

100 plus rooms.

The longer they take,

the less time we have.

Leave it to my brother to wait

till the last possible minute.

Everybody sit tight.

We'll go in when they clear out.

- I hate playing up this family shit.

- I know.

It's bad enough I gotta

clear up his mistakes.

Fuck my brother.

- Hmm.

- That money's ours.

I love it when you're selfish.

- Oh yeah?

- Yeah.

We're done here.

We'll clear out once they set the charges.

That means hard out by two PM,

so let's pick up the pace.

Okay, come on.

What's the catch?

It's in Alaska.

Oh, no shit.

Yeah. What? Come on

man, it could be fun.

Alaska, though?

Yeah, yeah.

You know what it is?

- They got beautiful women in Alaska, man.

- Yeah, sure.

They got moose and shit, too.

- Yeah?

- Yeah.

Have you ever even seen a moose?

Hell no, but that's

why I wanna go.

- I bet you do.

- Yeah.

Get some of that moose meat,

and then you give it to one of

those Eskimo chicks.

Then she loves you forever.

They do... they do

the Eskimo thing.

I don't know, I don't know,

we should check it out.

I mean, it's worth checking out.

- All right, ready?

- Yeah.

Three, two, one, go.

Woo-hoo.

No, but it's gonna be

a good opportunity, really.

A lotta good money here, man.

Lotta money to be

made in Alaska.

- Yeah?

- Yeah.

So what about you

man, you got any kids?

No, man. What about you?

Yeah, two of 'em.

But they're at school right now,

so their mom won't care if I

go have a drink at this party.

It's time to get outta here.

Hey man, you comin'?

Yeah, yeah, yeah,

comin', comin'.

- Yeah, let's go man.

- Yeah.

- What's wrong?

- Nothin'.

Let's go.

All right, gentlemen,

say your goodbyes.

That's all she wrote.

It's time to go.

Good, keep moving.

Keep moving.

Wade, Diaz, let's go!

Thank you, it's a

pleasure to meet you.

Absolutely.

It's beer 30, gentlemen.

Enjoy yourselves.

Come on, come on, come on.

Come on guys, you wanna get

left here and get blown up?

Some of us have

families to get home to.

Not all of us have

appointments with bar stools.

Babysitter's here.

My brother sends his regards.

You have some big shoes to fill.

He was a visionary.

Yeah, well he'll be glad to know

that you were here today

to help me right this wrong.

The spirit of what he created

is alive and well

in this very room.

Three million dollars,

in a building that's gonna be

dust inside three hours.

We don't know where it is.

We don't have time

to go looking for it.

We're looking for the man that

betrayed this family.

Put my brother's life in danger.

Follow the guard,

find the money.

What the hell are you doing?

Like your opinions.

Like, actually, yeah...

- Kinda like him.

- Yeah.

But they have good songs, too.

I would listen to emo music.

That stuff is

sometimes really funny.

Yeah.

The rap is better there.

- Bye, guys.

- Bye.

- Bye, Dad.

- All right, see you soon.

But yeah, I think

this one's good.

Yeah, play that jam.

Good to see ya.

How are ya, okay, how are ya?

Look at this here.

We're gonna have lots of

activity over here.

This is all gonna come down.

We'll have a nice big

civic center here.

It won't even matter, because we're

not gonna do what you did last time.

I'm not doing that man, I'm not.

I'm telling you, man,

you and all the shots.

It was your idea.

- Hey, George.

- Yeah?

I think I'm gonna

pass on that drink.

- Are you serious?

- Yeah man, I'm tired.

Don't act like you got something

better to do, man.

Come on, we're all gonna go.

Everybody's gonna have a good time.

- Ah, shit.

- What?

- I left my jacket.

- Oh, forget the jacket.

I can't forget my jacket,

the punch card's inside my jacket pocket.

I've gotta go back and get it.

Are you serious? Wait, wait, wait, we'll

all go with you. We'll all go with you.

No, don't make a

big thing out of it.

- Hey, what's the hold up?

- What're you waiting for?

Punch out already!

Listen to me, get the beers,

and I know where the jacket is.

- I'll see you in a minute.

- You sure?

Yeah man,

I'm good. I'm good.

Be careful.

...heard it

said the Castle Heights Hospital

is a reflection of

the neighborhood.

But to equate it with the

people of this neighborhood...

Attention. Clear the area.

We have 90 minutes till

detonation, clear the area.

Attention. Clear the area.

We have 90 minutes 'til

detonation, clear the area.

Attention. Clear the area.

He's goin' in.

Afternoon.

Can I help you?

Asbestos disposal.

Yeah, I don't think so.

We're locked up, guys.

I mean, this place is gonna

be toast at five.

Are you sure you got

the right building?

Sure as eggs is eggs.

All right, well,

let me check first.

Mmm, uh-uh.

Oops, give me the keys.

Right there on my hip, sir.

Just, please.

Why don't you find a comfy place

for our friend here?

Okay.

All right guys,

we gotta get inside.

Back the truck up.

Get in.

What, do you see

my hands right now?

They took my keys.

What do you want me to do?

Somebody pop this trunk!

Hey, wait a minute.

I know you.

Yeah, you used to dance

over at Frisky's on

Route 22, didn't you?

Just get everything prepped,

100 percent.

I'm right, ain't I?

I couldn't forget a scar like

that, sweetheart.

Damn.

He recognized you.

What was I supposed to do?

All right.

Help me out.

Yes!

Fuck, yes, come on!

Shit.

Did you see where he went in?

Over there.

He's headed for the lobby.

All right, go check around back.

Manny, go with him.

Everybody else, with me.

Let's go get this guy.

This is the fun part.

There's no elevators.

We got nothing.

Fuck it,

pick a floor and search it.

The money's here somewhere.

So is the guard.

All right, James.

Take the back stairs.

Caleb, circle the building.

Nobody gets out.

Duke, you stay here.

You see something,

you put it on the radio.

Eyes and ears open, guys.

Kat and Eddie, you're with me.

Let's move.

Spread out, find the money.

Everybody, now.

Damn it.

Get over here,

let me know if you see something.

Move, move!

Wait, did you hear that?

Eighth floor, now.

What the hell?

Go!

What's going on?

Search this floor.

We're gonna take the ninth.

Yo, you know the whole building's

wired with explosives, right?

Yeah, boss.

Shit.

What happened?

He got the money.

Oh, your brother's

gonna be pissed.

It's gotta be in here.

Everybody listen up.

Nothing changes.

Spread out, nobody leaves

until we find it.

Copy that.

Got him,

he's down by the trash room.

On my way.

Go, go, go, we got him, outside.

You got the wrong guy.

I don't know who you guys are

looking for, but I'm not him.

Shut the fuck up!

We caught this rat lurking.

What are you doing lurking

around here after hours?

Get the fuck up.

I work here, I'm

part of the crew.

I left my punch card

inside, that's it.

Oh, well looky here.

Hmm. Where's the fucking money?

I don't know

anything about that.

I don't know anything

about any money.

Caleb, who is he?

Never seen him before.

Hey.

Where's Ericson?

He ain't with the guard.

This guy's a nobody.

Yeah.

He knows something, don't ya,

ain't that right?

I don't know anything, man.

Just let me go, please,

just let me outta here.

Shh.

Come on, man.

I got a better idea.

Manny.

- No!

- There.

- Eighth floor.

- Yeah, go.

Take front, I'll cut him off.

Go get him.

Take the trash room,

I'll get the lobby.

Fuck!

On eighth.

Shit!

Come on, then.

Hi there.

We got the motherfucker.

He killed Manny.

Bring him down here, alive please.

Make this easy.

Tell us where the

fuckin' money is.

Yeah, maybe we'll let you go.

Spoiler alert, maybe we don't.

Okay, okay, okay, just... just...

just calm down, all right?

I can take you there,

I can take you to the money, but...

Fuck, are you trying to

blow this place up?

Get your fucking hands off me.

Don't ever touch me again.

Fuck.

Take it easy, cowboy.

I don't see him.

There's nothin' down here

but a bunch of damn dynamite.

I'll go check the back way.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

What are you doing here?

Who are you?

I'm with the demo team, okay?

I work here.

Where's the money?

- What money?

- Bullshit!

Whoa, whoa, whoa,

listen, listen, listen,

I left my punch card in my

jacket upstairs, all right?

I came back here to get it.

I'm not with these guys, okay?

They killed my friend,

and they're trying to kill...

Okay.

So you know what they'll do

if they find us.

Okay.

Stay cool, all right?

Okay, we're gettin' out of here.

Stop it, stop it!

I got 'em.

Trash room.

Okay.

- Hey, hey, take it easy.

- Hey, don't move.

Look, you hit the dynamite,

you'll bring this

whole place down.

He ain't lying,

mate, look around.

Back up, back the fuck up!

Be real smart about this, kid.

- What did I just say?

- Now listen to me, listen,

just put the gun

down, all right?

You got us, no one's

going anywhere.

Somebody hurry down to

the trash room, quick.

I'm gonna need some help.

Help!

Stop.

They'll be here any second!

Are you crazy?

Am I the only one that gets how

dynamite works around here?

Go!

Thank you, thank you, it's a

pleasure to meet you, sir, all right.

I got him.

Two guys, back staircase.

I'll cover the outside.

Block all the exits.

Nobody gets out 'til we've got the money.

Get up there!

Deacon, I think I got

a concussion or something.

I look like I give a fuck?

Get your ass up there!

Listen up, both of you!

I'm gonna give you one chance to

get out of this alive.

Trust me on that.

You throw the money down,

we leave,

you can leave.

Gonna count to three.

Then this offer goes away.

One!

Two!

Three!

Hey, don't shoot me, asshole.

This fucking guy.

Miss me?

Where's the fucking money?

Make a deal.

Tell me where the fucking money is,

and I'll hold your hand when you die.

Hey!

200 meters away, Mr. Mayor,

just to be safe.

They never leave this shit hole.

We bury them here.

Holy shit.

Let's go.

Okay, let's go.

They know we're here.

Hey, hey, I'm on your side.

I don't remember asking for your

help, mate.

Wanna tell me

where the money is?

- What money?

- You know what I'm talking about.

Hey, cut the bullshit!

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

You're bleeding.

All right?

Come on, in here.

Come on!

So, who are these guys?

Paramilitary group.

Call themselves

the Five Families.

The guy with the tattoo

on his neck is Deacon Glass.

He runs things for

his brother in prison.

So how do you fit into this?

I'm a guard there.

Glass tried to kill

this other inmate,

a drug dealer by the name

of Lando Collins.

Claims Collins stole

a bunch of his money.

Stashed it in here somewhere.

Okay, so you just

figured you'd come here

and take it, is that it?

- Is that why you're here?

- Yeah, something like that.

What about you?

Like I said, I just work here.

We're heading down to nine.

Look, you're not

getting out of here alone,

and I'm not leaving

without the money.

So cut the shit,

tell me where it is.

Fuck you, mate, right?

Buy a ticket and get in line.

No one's forcing you

to be here, are they?

All right, asshole.

What's the plan,

how are we getting out of here?

Does it look like I got a plan?

Haven't thought that

far ahead, okay?

Can't remember the reason I'm

in this shit in the first place.

Oh.

One of 'em's hurt.

Where the

fuck is he, then?

Hey are we losing?

'Cause it really feels

like we're losing.

And isn't this damn building

gonna blow up soon?

Shut up!

See, why you gotta talk

to me like that, James?

How do you feel about

killing somebody?

'Cause us getting out of here's

pretty goddamn dependent on it.

Pretty sure I already

did kill someone.

Kicked some bloke down

the elevator shaft.

Can't find 'em anywhere.

There's too many

places to hide in here.

What do you want me

to tell you, man?

They're sitting on my money,

they've got it!

You need to find

them! Fucking go, now!

Let's go.

Fuck 'em, if they wanna play

hide and seek, then let 'em.

We need to get the

hell outta here.

Let's go.

Kiss my ass, old

man, I'm leaving.

You're not gonna get very far

with that attitude.

Whatever!

- I need a gun.

- Hey wait, wait, wait.

Hey, what'd I tell...

Fuck!

- Put it down!

- Shoot him.

- Don't do it, I'll kill you!

- I said shoot him!

Maybe I should hold onto that.

Move!

You hold it.

Ah, ah, ah, hey.

Come on, we need to move.

No, they followed you here,

didn't they, these guys?

They came here

because of you, right?

Look, we gotta get moving.

No, I want you to tell me

what you're really doing here.

We don't have time

for this shit.

I wanna know now!

You tell me!

Okay.

My daughter's very sick,

blood cancer, she's dying.

Now there's one way to save her.

Either I'm leaving here with

enough money to pay for it,

or I'm staying here so

my life insurance will.

That's hers.

Who fired those shots?

Shit.

I said, who fired those shots?

Can you hear me?

That guy you killed down there,

he was an innocent man.

Now you're gonna pay for that.

So if you want your money,

it's up here with me,

so come and fucking

get it, asshole!

Can we go now?

Jesus Christ.

Hey!

How about a heads up next time

you do something stupid?

Yeah, all right, heads up.

Look, you're gonna

get us both killed.

Look, are you coming or not?

What's your daughter's name?

Emily.

Thanks.

Yeah,

you just make sure she gets it.

20 minutes.

Let's get out of here alive.

What's going on?

You know I used to live here.

I was there, I thought

it was awesome.

You, I saw your fight!

You know I had 41

professional fights?

41 fights, and I can

count on one hand

the amount of times

somebody's recognized me.

They killed my friend.

All right.

If you don't get out of here

now, we're both gonna be dead.

Okay? Let's go.

Come on.

How you doing, son?

You gotta

be kidding me.

They're headed back down.

Take the back, split up, go!

Jesus, how'd you plan

to carry all this?

I don't make plans.

One second.

Hey, sweetheart.

Where are you, still working?

Yeah, you okay sweetheart?

I'm fine.

I'm, you know,

I'm in the middle of something.

I just, I gotta go

okay, I love you.

Wait, can Leah

stay over tonight?

Sure.

We were

thinking to order Chinese.

Do you want anything?

Um, okay.

Order me everything.

Okay, I love you, I gotta go.

You sound weird, Dad.

I'm fine, honey, okay?

Love you very much, I'll see you

soon, all right?

Bye.

You know what?

I think I have got a plan.

Why do I have a bad

feeling about this?

Here, all right.

So this is what I'm thinking.

We throw the bags down there,

and then we climb

down the shaft.

How do you know

they're not down there?

I don't, okay, it's

a high risk plan.

Jesus!

- Goddamn it.

- Shit.

I don't think you

understand how plans work.

Then you've got a plan, have ya?

There's a roof off

the sixth floor.

We can get down from there.

Shit, 10 minutes.

Shit, let's go!

There's a roof off the

sixth floor, now he tells me.

- They're on six.

- Fuck, they're heading for the roof.

Head for the roof, go, go!

Can get out from there.

Shit!

- Go!

- You go!

Go on, I'll cover you!

Go on, move!

Shit, it's locked!

We got 'em. Cut 'em off down

the back stairs, go now!

Come on, let's go!

Come on.

We have four minutes, come on!

You go, just go!

You got someone

waiting for you, right?

Just get her the money, go!

Go!

What's the matter?

Outta ammo?

You wanna tell me who you are

before I kill you?

Maybe we'll just wait

till the whole place blows.

You may as well

give me my money.

Might as well.

Fuck.

You guys ready to see this?

It's over.

You don't have

the killer instinct.

It's over.

We got less than

30 seconds, guys.

All right, all right. 10!

Damn it.

Seven!

- Jump, jump!

- Five!

Shit!

Three, two...

Ericson, by the way.

Mike.

Thanks, man.

What a fuckin' day.

Yeah, it was a

pretty messed up day.

Mom?

Get up.

What is this?

And one more thing,

I want Damien Glass.

What's going on?

Come on.

What's going on?

All right, leave him.

Hey.

Hey, what is this?

Shh.

- I didn't do nothin'.

- Shh.

- Wasn't me.

- Shh.

block, motherfucker.
