Mr. X (2018) - full transcript
7:47 every morning the alarm goes off to same song. Radio show on the northwest mecca radio. With winning Lotto numbers.
(electronic music)
- [Mr. X] I have 60 seconds
to come up with a plan.
They know where I am.
They've implanted me with GPS.
I can't hide or run anywhere.
You know your entire life,
it's about convincing another person
that your belief is better.
Or you convince them that
you're worth something more
than the value of the almighty dollar.
I mean, I guess mine is to
convince the people chasing me
that I'm not really who
they think that I am.
The only problem is, I
don't remember who I am.
(gunshot blasting)
- [Distorted Voice] Mr.
X, we know who you are.
You can't let you live,
because you know the results.
(intense music)
(gunshot blasting)
- [Mr. X] They know who I am.
I have 60 seconds to come up with a plan.
They know who I am.

They've implanted me with GPS.

- [Ned On Phone] Hey,
this is Ned calling about
Blast From The Past Insurance.
Hey, I'd like to know if
you need life insurance.
- Who is this?
- [Ned On Phone] Is this you, Mr. X?
You know I used to sit
next to you in music class.
I played the trombone
- No idea.
- [Ned On Phone] just like you.
Ned the Neddy, you don't remember?
- Aw, sorta.
Yo Ned, what's this about?
- [Ned On Phone] Well, believe it or not,
I sell life insurance.
- Look Ned, Ned, Ned,
man, I'm kind of in a

(phone ringing)
- [Mr. X] This Mr. X.
- [James On Phone] Hello Mr. X.
My name is James, and
God has spent me to you.
Well God is gonna give you
seven days to learn your lesson.
- Why would God do that?
- [James On Phone] You're
not a nice person, Mr. X.
I guess what we're saying is,
we're concerned about your life, Mr. X.
Keep in mind, you can
do whatever you want.
Death, you'll just be reborn
again on the next day.
But remember, after seven days,
your time is up.
- I have to change
my ways, huh?
- [James On Phone] And
remember, after seven days,
God will judge your heart.
Be ready, Mr. X.
Be ready.
- [Mr. X Voiceover]
This is some crazy shit.
I can't tell anyone this.
They'll think I'm crazy.
Maybe it was just a dream.
Tonight I do a $100,000 drug deal.
Only problem is, I don't have all
the money needed to complete the deal.
I got about 50,000, but still,
I need another 50,000 by tonight.
(rap music)
The deal would give me enough
drugs to move to get a lambo.
♪ Put 'em in your shirt ♪
♪ In your shirt ♪
I've always wanted a lampo.
♪ Daddy gone cry and
your mother gone cry ♪
I guess you could say,
I never been interested
in the married with children role in life.
I do have a kid, but I haven't
talked to him in years.
You can thank his crazy Mom for that.
That's why I stay single for life.
♪ All of the spot, chucking
rocks with my niggas ♪
Plus, the court system tends
not to be nice to single Dads.
I can't say I'm the most
moral man, but who is really?
I hit a lick for 40,000 at a bank once.
They thought I was Johnathan
Smith from California
for a bank withdrawal.
It was getting too easy, the
money was coming too fast.
I'm still tryina figure out
why they did PJ like that.
Rest in peace, my guy.
Just as fast as they here, now they gone.
(birds tweeting)
An associate of mine tipped me out to
a $50,000 gold-plated
engagement ring snatch-up.
All I had to do was act like
I was breaking into the house,
and grabbed the ring
located in the bathroom.
Easy enough, right?
Yeah, it would be a
stolen fully insured ring
that my associate would
collect the insurance money,
and I could pawn the ring off for 60,000.
(birds tweeting)
(phone ringing)
(ambient electronic music)
- [Man On Phone] I'll give
you 25,000 for the ring.
- 25,000?
Come on, man.
It's well worth over
60,000 and you know it.
- [Man On Phone] No, I'll
give you 25,000 for the ring.
- Will you do 30,000?
- [Man On Phone] That's a done deal.
- All right.
(swanky music)
I couldn't figure out
how to get all the money.
I still needed 20,000.
(cars roaring by)
(doorbell rings)
- [Voice Over Com] It's open.
(metallic echoing)
- [Drug Dealer] Hey you,
I ain't doing no fuss,
no money, no deal.
- [Mr. X] It's all there.
- [Drug Dealer] Hey, something
ain't right about you.
I don't trust this.
- [Mr. X] Wait, you don't believe me?
- [Drug Dealer] If you really ask me,
it feels like you tryin' to snake me.
- [Mr. X] Calm down.
- [Drug Dealer] Oh you must
think I'm Mr. Gullible, huh?
- [Mr. X] Just put the gun down.
Come on.
- [Drug Dealer] Guess what?
(gunshots firing)
- [Distorted Voice] It's
about 7:47, early AM.
- [Man On Radio] Today's
winning powerball numbers,
that's right, today
(phone ringing)
it all goes off.
- [Mr. X Voiceover] I feel like
it's déjà vu all over again.
(phone ringing)
The same radio show, the
some winning lotto numbers,
maybe it's just a repeat episode.
Yeah, this is Mr. X.
- [Ned On Phone] Hey, this is Ned,
from Blast From The Past Insurance.
Do you need life insurance?
- Who?
- [Ned On Phone] Wait a
minute, is this Mr. X?
- Yeah, okay.
How who is this and how would I know you?
- [Ned On Phone] I used to sit
next to you in music class.
I played the trombone, just like you.
- Ned?
- Ned the Neddy.
You don't remember?
- Sorry, man.
Look man, I'm in a hurry right now,
I'mma to call you back okay?
- [Ned On Phone] Okily Dokily.
- [Mr. X] Phew. Weirdo.

- [Drug Dealer] Yeah, but
you're like 20 grand short.
- [Mr. X] No, I'm not short.
Count it again.
- [Drug Dealer] Man, you
still 20 grand short.
Clearly you don't
remember our arrangement.
- [Mr. X] Look man, I'm not
doing anything wrong here, okay?
(metallic echoing)
Look, I'm just short
a little bit of cash right now.
I'll make it up to you, okay?
- [Drug Dealer] But you
know I don't do no fronts.
No money, no deal.
Somethin' ain't right about this.
I don't trust you.
It feels like you're trying to snake me.
So you think I'm gullible?
- [Mr. X] Of course you're
not gullible, man come on.
- [Drug Dealer] Well guess what?
- Okay.
- Today's your lucky
motherfuckin' day,
- Let's not overreact.
- Mr. Gullible.
- Put the gun back.
- [Drug Dealer] May God
have mercy on your soul.

If this is your ticket,
you just won $200 million.
Now, let's get back to the music.
Here's Matt Dundee, featuring Yuck Mouth,
with "Rap Gang Lin, Dope Gang Boom."
- [Mr. X] One thing I've learned in life,
God can put us through
some major life trials.
Hm.
We have to find a better
way to solve our problems.
(phone ringing)
We gotta start loving ourselves,
before God can love us.
But most importantly, man
I gotta find another way.
That's for sure.
Wait a minute, that gives me an idea.
Make sure you buy that
powerball ticket today.
(distorted electronic and rap music)
The year is 1999.
And they told me,
it could take seven years to get there.
It was the deal that NASA didn't do,
they're finally coming.
The world rising.
This is so messed up.
1999, they say the world's
gonna end at midnight.
They won't be able to see the whole world.
So essentially, they can be back.
It's a slow death.
(Voice becomes too distorted
and drowned out by music)
Just become another slave planet, on Mars.
They told me to sleep as much as I can.
And don't use too much energy.
They launched the pod via fusion.
And I was amazed.
The oxygen is recycled.
Imagine that.
Amazing what you can
do with aluminum foil.
But the biggest problem was weight,
because once you launch into space,
everything is weightless.
But how could they supply me
with enough food and water?
Hm, emergency.
Just add water to the food.
It was light and easy.
I wasn't really expending energy.
So I could make the food last longer.
How do I poop?
Very carefully.
And sometimes the pooper gets full.
Release the carpin.
As far as floating
around like an astronaut,
they fixed that, there's
artificial gravity.
Other than that, it's a
enjoy the ride kind of thing.
They tell me to keep
a daily video journal.
Speaking of that, where are they?
Who is that, right?
No one knows.
But they all fact like they do.
(sighs) It was a hard pill to swallow.
You know, to accept the
life sentence in prison.
I don't like to talk about it much.
But I do have company with me.
Well, it's a smartphone and commander.
It's guiding me the ways to Mars.
When I get there if I do, I'm supposed
to leave Morse code on the planet.
I guess that's how they know
I've landed and it's possible.
I don't really trust that
it's just a test mission.
And there's nothing of value on Mars.
There has to be some kind of
resource on Mars for humans.
I know I shouldn't have done what I did.
I read most of my days in prison.
Anything I could get my hands on.
I was a sponge for knowledge.
She didn't deserve what she got.
My wife, well, ex-wife.
She wanted nothing more than
to have a family of kids.
I just couldn't provide her with that.
Crime and punishment.
On Earth, it's simple.
You do the crime, you do the time.
Yeah, they say Mars, you can't live on it
'cause of the temperatures being so cold.
But I do wonder.
I wonder about the idea,
of some sun reflectors.
Pure.
Look at ways to reflect
sun on the planet Mars.
Was it was real anyways?
Life, love?
All that and a bag of chips.
After the third month out here,
I pretty much just gave up on it.
Horrible idea actually.
Shave even, trimming less so.
I mean what was the point?
Look good for myself?
Naw.
Naw.
I don't know.
It's a hard pill to swallow.
You know that you're about
to die in a few hours.
But at least you're not
gonna die without purpose.
I mean you'll die with a
struggle, tryin' to stay alive,
how to figure out a new way.
(sighs) I don't know.
It's still a rough card to be dealt.
It's like how it swings on this one.
I could just get a
couple of hours of sleep.
47 hours of sleep.
This cannot be happening right now.
Stay calm, stay calm.
You got this.
Stop.

Be ready, Mr. X.
Be ready.

This is some crazy shit.
I can't tell anyone this.
They'll think I'm crazy.
Maybe it was just a dream.
Tonight I do a $100,000 drug deal.
Only problem is, I don't have all
the money needed to complete the deal.
I got about 50,000, but still,
I need another 50,000 by tonight.
(rap music)
The deal would give me enough
drugs to move to get a lambo.

I guess you could say,
I never been interested
in the married with children role in life.
I do have a kid, but I haven't
talked to him in years.
You can thank his crazy Mom for that.
That's why I stay single for life.

I can't say I'm the most
moral man, but who is really?
I hit a lick for 40,000 at a bank once.
They thought I was Johnathan
Smith from California
for a bank withdrawal.
It was getting too easy, the
money was coming too fast.
I'm still tryina figure out
why they did PJ like that.
Rest in peace, my guy.
Just as fast as they here, now they gone.
(birds tweeting)
An associate of mine tipped me out to
a $50,000 gold-plated
engagement ring snatch-up.
All I had to do was act like
I was breaking into the house,
and grabbed the ring
located in the bathroom.
Easy enough, right?
Yeah, it would be a
stolen fully insured ring
that my associate would
collect the insurance money,
and I could pawn the ring off for 60,000.
(birds tweeting)
(phone ringing)
(ambient electronic music)
- [Man On Phone] I'll give
you 25,000 for the ring.
- 25,000?
Come on, man.
It's well worth over
60,000 and you know it.
- [Man On Phone] No, I'll
give you 25,000 for the ring.
- Will you do 30,000?
- [Man On Phone] That's a done deal.
- All right.
(swanky music)
I couldn't figure out
how to get all the money.
I still needed 20,000.
(cars roaring by)
(doorbell rings)
- [Voice Over Com] It's open.
(metallic echoing)
- [Drug Dealer] Hey you,
I ain't doing no fuss,
no money, no deal.
- [Mr. X] It's all there.
- [Drug Dealer] Hey, something
ain't right about you.
I don't trust this.
- [Mr. X] Wait, you don't believe me?
- [Drug Dealer] If you really ask me,
it feels like you tryin' to snake me.
- [Mr. X] Calm down.
- [Drug Dealer] Oh you must
think I'm Mr. Gullible, huh?
- [Mr. X] Just put the gun down.
Come on.
- [Drug Dealer] Guess what?
(gunshots firing)
- [Distorted Voice] It's
about 7:47, early AM.
- [Man On Radio] Today's
winning powerball numbers,
that's right, today
(phone ringing)
it all goes off.
- [Mr. X Voiceover] I feel like
it's déjà vu all over again.
(phone ringing)
The same radio show, the
some winning lotto numbers,
maybe it's just a repeat episode.
Yeah, this is Mr. X.
- [Ned On Phone] Hey, this is Ned,
from Blast From The Past Insurance.
Do you need life insurance?
- Who?
- [Ned On Phone] Wait a
minute, is this Mr. X?
- Yeah, okay.
How who is this and how would I know you?
- [Ned On Phone] I used to sit
next to you in music class.
I played the trombone, just like you.
- Ned?
- Ned the Neddy.
You don't remember?
- Sorry, man.
Look man, I'm in a hurry right now,

Clearly you don't

- [Mr. X] Look man, I'm not

(metallic echoing)
Look, I'm just short

I'll make it up to you, okay?
- [Drug Dealer] But you

No money, no deal.
Somethin' ain't right about this.
I don't trust you.
It feels like you're trying to snake me.
So you think I'm gullible?
- [Mr. X] Of course you're
not gullible, man come on.
- [Drug Dealer] Well guess what?
- Okay.

motherfuckin' day,

Oh god man, just forgive me.

you just won $200 million.
Now, let's get back to the music.
Here's Matt Dundee, featuring Yuck Mouth,
with "Rap Gang Lin, Dope Gang Boom."
- [Mr. X] One thing I've learned in life,
God can put us through
some major life trials.
Hm.
We have to find a better
way to solve our problems.
(phone ringing)
We gotta start loving ourselves,
before God can love us.
But most importantly, man
I gotta find another way.
That's for sure.
Wait a minute, that gives me an idea.
Make sure you buy that
powerball ticket today.
(distorted electronic and rap music)
The year is 1999.
And they told me,
it could take seven years to get there.
It was the deal that NASA didn't do,
they're finally coming.
The world rising.
This is so messed up.
1999, they say the world's
gonna end at midnight.
They won't be able to see the whole world.
So essentially, they can be back.
It's a slow death.
(Voice becomes too distorted
and drowned out by music)
Just become another slave planet, on Mars.
They told me to sleep as much as I can.
And don't use too much energy.
They launched the pod via fusion.
And I was amazed.
The oxygen is recycled.
Imagine that.
Amazing what you can
do with aluminum foil.
But the biggest problem was weight,
because once you launch into space,
everything is weightless.
But how could they supply me
with enough food and water?
Hm, emergency.
Just add water to the food.
It was light and easy.
I wasn't really expending energy.
So I could make the food last longer.
How do I poop?
Very carefully.
And sometimes the pooper gets full.
Release the carpin.
As far as floating
around like an astronaut,
they fixed that, there's
artificial gravity.
Other than that, it's a
enjoy the ride kind of thing.
They tell me to keep
a daily video journal.
Speaking of that, where are they?
Who is that, right?
No one knows.
But they all fact like they do.
(sighs) It was a hard pill to swallow.
You know, to accept the
life sentence in prison.
I don't like to talk about it much.
But I do have company with me.
Well, it's a smartphone and commander.
It's guiding me the ways to Mars.
When I get there if I do, I'm supposed
to leave Morse code on the planet.
I guess that's how they know
I've landed and it's possible.
I don't really trust that
it's just a test mission.
And there's nothing of value on Mars.
There has to be some kind of
resource on Mars for humans.
I know I shouldn't have done what I did.
I read most of my days in prison.
Anything I could get my hands on.
I was a sponge for knowledge.
She didn't deserve what she got.
My wife, well, ex-wife.
She wanted nothing more than
to have a family of kids.
I just couldn't provide her with that.
Crime and punishment.
On Earth, it's simple.
You do the crime, you do the time.
Yeah, they say Mars, you can't live on it
'cause of the temperatures being so cold.
But I do wonder.
I wonder about the idea,
of some sun reflectors.
Pure.
Look at ways to reflect
sun on the planet Mars.
Was it was real anyways?
Life, love?
All that and a bag of chips.
After the third month out here,
I pretty much just gave up on it.
Horrible idea actually.
Shave even, trimming less so.
I mean what was the point?
Look good for myself?
Naw.
Naw.
I don't know.
It's a hard pill to swallow.
You know that you're about
to die in a few hours.
But at least you're not
gonna die without purpose.
I mean you'll die with a
struggle, tryin' to stay alive,
how to figure out a new way.
(sighs) I don't know.
It's still a rough card to be dealt.
It's like how it swings on this one.
I could just get a
couple of hours of sleep.
47 hours of sleep.
This cannot be happening right now.
Stay calm, stay calm.
You got this.
Stop.
