Operation Golden Phoenix (1994) - full transcript

A kickboxer is hired to protect half of a valuable medallion, but an evil warlord and another kickboxer are determined to have it, no matter what it takes.

[dramatic music]

[speaking in Arabic]

>> I want to settle this thing
right here and right now.

>> Anytime you say Ivan.

>> Okay, then let's do it.

You ready? Go.

>> After I finish defeating you,

I'd like to
double check all crates.

Make sure it's all
time locked properly.

Professor Amid's one
of my most respected clients.

Everything has to be perfect.



>> I know you've told me
a million times.

I triple checked everything.

Now just be quiet,

and give me a chance
to win some of my money back.

[telephone ringing]

>> Hello, okay.

Jones.>> Yeah.

>> Hey!>> Man, I got a phone call.

>> I'll see you on the plane.

>> Hey, save yourself
for the rematch.

>> Oh, yeah.

>> Yeah.

>> You know, this is.
How's it going?

>> He doesn't suspect a thing.



>> You're going to be
a very rich man.

>> That's the idea.

Everything's going
according to schedule.

I'll see you in Toronto.

[dramatic music]

>> Ivan Jones.>> Yes.

>> Of course,
you already know Malik.

>> I was just coming to see you.

>> I guess that means you
have the money you owe me.

>> I'm getting it.

>> I want the money now.
Three thousand U.S.

>> Look, Youssef,
If I'm on my way to Canada

to deliver some
very valuable museum pieces

and when I return, I'll pay you
everything I owe you, deal?

>> Malik.>> Okay, okay.

Let me give you what I have.

>> What's this, a pen?

>> Oh, it's not just a pen.

It's a weapon.

>> Yaah!

>> Aah!

>> Keep the pen.

[dramatic music]

>> Good evening Vechio.

>> Good evening, sir.

>> The Byblos treasure.

Are we fully
prepared for its arrival?

>> Well, our
security's at full alert.

Who's bringing it in
from Lebanon?

>> Mark Assante is personally
escorting the treasure.

>> Assante!
Who the hell hired him?

>> Professor Amid,

he believes
he's the man for the job.

>> Yeah!

Well, I don't trust
the son of a bitch.

>> Assante's reputation
is flawless.

>> He never follows
a confirmed procedure.

I just don't feel safe
when he's involved.

>> You worry too much.

>> Yeah, we'll see about that.

>> Welcome to Toronto, Canada.

We'll be landing shortly at
Pearson international airport.

[dramatic music]

>> Those 17 hour
flights are killing me.

>> Welcome to cool Canada.

>> It's good to be home.

>> Almost home.

You know Anne called
she's asking about your again.

>> Great.
I'll see her in person.

How's the time?

>> Got, two minutes
to check point one.

>> Good.
We're right on schedule.

Who's tracing us?

>> Vechio.

>> Golden Phoenix to base.

How are you Vechio?

>> I'm starting
to get a headache

knowing you're back in town.

>> Well, maybe
you'll stay awake.

>> Listen Assante,

you've got exactly
eleven minutes to get here?

If you're more than
one second late,

I'll make sure
everyone knows about this.

>> Is that a wager?

>> How does 500 bucks
sound to you?

>> Five hundred bucks.

All right, man,
make it a thousand.

>> Deal!>> Great.

[dramatic music]

[tires screeching]

What the hell is this?

[dramatic music]

Ram it!

[guns firing]

>> Security trucks
one and two hold back.

Maintain your positions,
wait for my instruction.

>> Mr. Jones there's two guys
coming at us with guns.

Stay calm.
Everything's under control.

>> Put your hand up.

[gun firing]

>> Don't shoot.[gun firing]

[dramatic music]

>> Are you crazy?

Don't leave the van
stay in here, it's safer.

>> The best defense
is a good offense.

[shotgun firing][gun firing]

>> Aah!

>> Aah!

>> Our men are being
slaughtered, send help, now.

[shotgun firing][gun firing]

>> Go to plan B.
Repeat. Plan B.

>> Let's get him
cover on the other side.

[shotgun firing]

>> Aah!

[dramatic music]

[shotgun firing]>> Aah!

[sirens wailing]

>> Great. It's about time.

>> Drop your weapon.

Drop your weapon.

Kick it over here.>> Special service.

>> Kick it over.

He moves, kill him.

>> No. Don't shoot.[gun firing]

>> Place the bombs
and set the timer.

Hurry up, hurry up.

>> Let's move these bodies.

Get the van,
let's get the hell out of here.

[clock ticking]

[car doors slamming shut]

[sirens wailing]

>> Morning Chief.

>> Sergeant, look after
these for me will you.>> Thank you.

Give her a hand.

>> Chief Gordon, this is...

>> Save the introduction.

Assante and I know each other.

In spite of that,

we're still going to try
and be fair because

that's kind of guy I am.

Now Assante.

You claim that
the police did this, uh.

They killed Ivan Jones

and then they
stole the treasure.

And I have made a thorough
examination of this case,

and come to only one conclusion.

Your statement
just doesn't add up.

You know,

and I know that it was
just a matter of time

until greed.

Uh, just simply greed.

Being trusted to guard millions
of dollars worth of artifacts

was just too much
for you to handle.

The police did it, huh.

Frankly, Assante
I would have expected

a better story
than that from you.

But better story or not,
the bottom line is

the only way to rob this
shipment is from the inside.

And there were only
two people on the inside

who could have
gotten to the treasure

before the alarms
went screaming

all over hell's half acre.

Only two people
who had the password.

Only two people,
you and Ivan Jones.

Except he's not
here anymore is he?

Prematurely cremated
by the truck explosion.

Dead, gone, nothing left
to him except his I.D.

Only you were left alive

and only your fingerprints
are on the computer keyboard.

You did it Assante.

There is no way that anybody
else could have done this.

Now I want to know now.

The names of your accomplices.

>> Listen, smart guy.>> Hey,

don't you call me smart guy?

Who do you think
you're talking to?

>> I did not do it.

And if I did, it's gonna take
somebody a lot smarter than you

to figure it out.

>> I'm not here
to play games asshole.

I want some
straight answers right now.

I swear to you, I'm personally
going to guarantee

that your life's going to be
one miserable living hell

starting right now.

>> I'm not saying another word
until I talk to my lawyer.

>> Get him the hell out of here
before I really lose my temper.

>> Got the spec sheet
on your background.

Interesting read.

Your reputation shows that

you're a very dangerous person.

>> Where's my lawyer?

>> I understand Mr. Margolese
is your usual attorney,

but he's on vacation.

He's appointed me
to look after your case.

This way, now he'll probably
be able to make it back

for the trial.

[blowing loudly]

[dramatic music]

Tomorrow we'll attend
a bail hearing.

Now, I've reviewed the case.

Frankly, this is
pretty straightforward

and we can plea bargain.

And with a little luck,
you'll get 20 to 40.

Depends on what sticks,

you might be able to
get out in about 15.

Now all you need to do is
to give them a little
something to go on.

You know,
name a few accomplices.

Okay just give him one.

>> I'm innocent.

>> What you do mean, what?

>> I am innocent.

>> Huh!
[blowing loudly]

I'm sorry, I uh,
I don't quite understand.

>> I'm innocent.

I didn't kill my partner,
I didn't steal the treasure,

you stupid idiot.

>> Back to the cell.

>> You guys really
want to put him in here?

>> Chief Gordon's orders.

>> Okay, guys,
back up, get back.

[prisoners talking]

Get in there.

>> Got the key.>> Thanks.

Let's do the paperwork.

>> Look what we have here,
a nice suit.

Give me a smoke,
where's the smoke?

Is it in here?

>> I don't smoke.

>> You fuck.
You won't last long in here.

>> Very cosy isn't it.

>> Asshole!

>> Assante put your
hands through there.

Time to see the lady.

>> All rise!

You maybe seated.

>> Mr. Assante,

due to the seriousness of
the crime request for bail,

will be denied,

a trial date will be set later.

In the meantime,
you will remain in full custody.

[gavel banging loudly]

>> Come on,
keep it moving.

>> Look, it's the suit.

>> Still looking for a smoke?

>> Fuck you.

>> Escaped convict,
he's getting away.

>> He's got my keys.

[dramatic music]

>> Mark Assante,
has escaped custody

and is now at large
in the station.

Secure all exits
and be prepared.

He's very dangerous,
if necessary shoot-to-kill.

[birds chirping]

[car horn honking]

>> He's going for the street.

Come on, let's move.

[dramatic music]

>> Ivan Jones,
[laughing] you did it.

Congratulations are in order.

It wasn't too difficult, was it?

>> Same thing I used
to do for the government,

only it's much sweeter
doing it for myself.

>> And you see
Mark Assante taking the rap.

Don't worry, it's clean
as a newborn baby.

Operation Canada fini.

Operation Lebanon, commence.

Now we go to Lebanon
to pick up the second pendant.

>> What, you never
told me anything

about a second pendant.

>> Oh, didn't I?

Well, it's like a CD Rom game.

Advance and find out.

>> I'm not in the mood
for your games, Chang.

>> The second pendant
leads us to the lost treasure.

>> Who's got it?

>> It's owned by
Princess Angelica.

She's an Amir descendant.

There are a few left
in that part of the world.

>> What sort of support
do we have in Lebanon?

>> I have a home
and business in Lebanon.

Professor Amid's wife
is my confidante.

>> Professor Amid's wife.
[laughing]

>> A sweet, two timing whore.

[telephone ringing]>> You devil!

>> There are
some of us left too.

Hello.

What?

Are you sure?

Because you didn't
want to kill him,

you sentimental fool.

Your buddy
has escaped jail.

Assante escaped how?

>> You let him live,
that's how.

I want him dead.

Do you understand, dead.

>> Okay.

>> Hire those
phony cops to kill him.

Here's the cash.

And when you're done
join me in Lebanon.

I don't want that son of a bitch
tailing me, understand.

And if you fail this time.

>> Relax, Chang, relax.

I know Mark Assante
better than he knows himself.

I know exactly where he'll go.

He's got a little girlfriend,

works in a theater
and I'll get him.

>> Do that.

[dramatic music]

>> Cops!

>> His girlfriend knows nothing.

Where to now?

>> Let's radio in.

[laughing]

>> I hated the play
the actor's a ham.

>> Ah, you just don't
like Shakespeare.

>> The only
consistent thing in life

is life's chronic inconsistency.

Life.

Life's but a poor player

who frets and struts
his hour upon the stage.

It is a tale told by an idiot

full of sound and fury

signifying nothing.

I have almost forgot
the taste of fears.

The time has been.

>> Police are still looking
for Mark Assante,

who escaped
police custody earlier.

[radio playing]

[door shutting]

>> I loved the play.

>> Mark, oh my God.

Are you all right?

>> Sure, just fine.

>> I've been
following your case.

The police were here.

>> I didn't.>> I know you didn't do it.

I have known you for years.

People are going to
recognize you,

you can't stay here.

>> Disguise me.

>> What?
>> Hey change my appearance

I have to leave town.

I need it to go to Lebanon.

>> If this which he
avouches does appear,

there is nor flying,
hence no tarrying here,

I begin to be aweary of the sun,

and wish the estate
o' the world were now undone.

Ring the alarm bell!

Blow, wind, come wrack!

At least we'll die
with harness on our back.

[applause]

[knocking on door]

>> Final curtain,
30 seconds left.

>> It's not safe here.

Take my keys, I've got
a car parked out back,

I'll pack the make up,
and go to my apartment.

>> Here you go, boys.

>> Using blanks was a good idea.

It was a pleasure killing you.

And remember,
me and my associates

are always available
if anything else comes up.

I hope you
and the Byblos treasures

are very happy together.

>> One thing
I hate about this job.

>> What's that Mr. Jones?

>> Tying up the loose ends
can be a real pain in the ass.

[gun firing]

[dog barking]

>> You're looking for someone.

>> Aah!

[gun firing]

[dramatic music]

[gun firing]

[gun firing]

>> Who sent you?

Who sent you?
Who sent you?

Who sent you?

>> To hell with you, man.

I'm not telling you nothing.

[gun firing]>> Aah!

[tires screeching][gun firing]

>> Let's go to the club.>> Yeah!

>> You're fine?

>> Of course I'm fine.

Why?

>> Never mind.

[melodious music]

I guess I need
a new identity now.

Do you know, Johnny?

>> Johnny,
he's the Greek right,

yeah, I've heard of him.

>> On the Danforth.

He used to make
forged documents,

for the Greek underground
in World War II.

Nazis never
recognized his signatures.

He's got a steady hand
and a jewel cutter's eyes.

He's a bit older now,
but he can still work his magic.

>> And how much
is this going to cost me?

>> Just tell him I sent you,
he'll take care of it for me.

>> Anne.

>> Look, it's the least
that I can do.

If you ever get out of hot water
you son of a bitch,

you better plan on
spending some real time with me.

>> I promise.

[melodious music]

[dramatic music]

[knocking on door]

>> Your Johnny the Greek?

>> Get lost!

>> Anne from
the theatre sent me.

>> Okay, come on in.

Who, you're kidding with that.

You can fool some people,
but you can't fool me.

I got eyes like nobody else.

>> I need a passport.

>> You brought
the cash, I figure.

>> Anne will take care of it.

>> That figures.

You're in luck.

I've got a name, Balcour

Bernard Balcour.

You brought a picture.

>> Yeah.

>> Aha!

You the fellow
I saw in the papers?

>> Yeah.

>> Aha!

Good thing to get out
of town if I were you.

[dramatic music]

[middle eastern music]

>> Welcome to Lebanon,
Mr. Chang.>> Umm!

Aah, good to be back.

>> Good to have you back.

Everything is
proceeding smoothly.

>> Ivan Jones' flight
is expected to arrive shortly.

[middle eastern music]

>> Aah!

>> Mr. Chang,
Alana, welcome.

>> Ah, so pretty, very kind.

>> Light, Mr Chang.

[middle eastern music]

[jet engine roaring]

[airport announcer]

[dramatic music]

[jet engine roaring]

>> Taxi!

>> I'm waiting for someone.

>> Who?

>> Hey, Walter.

>> Good to see you, my friend.

>> I'm happy to be here.

>> Are you sure?

Coming back to Lebanon
was a smart thing to do.

>> I have to see,
Professor Amid.

>> Are you crazy?

He's the last person
you need to see.

>> I don't have a choice.

I need some kind of a meeting.

[beautiful acoustic guitar]

>> He's at
the Montalaban car rally

and after 3,
I'm one of the drivers.

>> You and the Professor
have become good friends,

I take it.

>> Well he should like me.

I'm engaged
to his daughter, Nicole.

This treasure incident
has made a lot of news

and your presence here,
could really stir things up,

if you know what I mean.

>> The stolen statues and the
pendant are very recognizable.

Whoever took them,
will be unable to sell them.

Therefore, the thieves must have
had some other use for them.

[car horn honking]

I'll need somewhere to stay.

>> Don't worry.

You can hide at my place.

>> Where are we going right now?

>> My fiancé is at the marina.

>> What time
are we getting to the race?

>> It starts in 10 minutes.

>> Do we have enough time?

>> It's faster by boat.

[beautiful acoustic guitar]

[beautiful acoustic guitar]

>> Get in.

Nicole, start the engine.

>> Hi Nicole.>> Welcome back Mark.

>> Come on, hurry up, Walter.

Let's get to the race.

[engine starting]

[dramatic music]

[crowd chattering]

>> Call me later.

Let's get ready.

>> Daddy.

>> Hello, my sweetheart.

>> I missed you.

>> I've missed you, too.

>> Hey, Walter,
I'll see you on the boat.

Ciao!

[car engine revving]

[tires screeching]

[tires screeching]

>> Assante.

What the hell
are you doing here?

>> I have to talk to you.

>> You stole my Phoenix pendant.

I did not steal it,
that's why I'm here.

I'm trying to
find out who did it.

>> The police
are looking for you.

It's very courageous of you,
coming here.

Either that or you're stupid.

What do you want from me?

>> Only you can help me.

>> Why, are you demanding
ransom for the pendant?

>> No. You've got to believe me.

The police are not
the only ones after me.

I need your help.

>> Mr. Chang, it's Sue
the Professor's wife.

She says it is important.

>> Hello.

>> Hi, honey.
I'll see you tonight.

Everything is all
set up for you.

>> It better be, I'm expecting
the best from you, darling.

Ahh, Ivan Jones,
has arrived.

Let's go out and party.

[loud upbeat music]

>> Oh, hello my dear.

>> Hello.

>> This is Mark Assante.

He's visiting us from Canada.

This is my wife, Sue.

>> It's a pleasure.

>> What a coincidence.

How is that?

>> Those people
are asking about you.

>> Who are they?>> They left their card.

They asked if I heard
or saw anything of you

to give them a call.

>> Great insurance people.

>> Better make
more sense there.

Meet up with me later.

>> Thanks.

>> Is everything okay?

[middle eastern music]

>> Mark is still alive.

>> Who, Assante?

>> Yes. He was
at the car rally today.

>> Ivan.

Why didn't you kill him?

>> Kill who?

>> Assante, you fool, who else?

He was seen at
the car rally today.

>> I, I couldn't
shoot him in the back.

>> Bullshit!

Assante could have
ruined everything.

When I give you an order,

you follow it to a tee,
you understand?

>> I'll go kill him right now.

>> No, it's too late.

I'll think of another time.

>> Chang the pendant.

Does he know about the pendant?

>> He knows nothing.

What about
Angelica's pendant?

It looks very much
like the one that we have.

>> Legend has it that there
are two pendants like this

when put together
they reveal a map

that leads to lost treasure
of the Ottoman Empire.

Ivan, there's a change of plans.

We're gonna use
Assante to our advantage.

>> I know exactly
what you're thinking.

>> We'll, let Mark Assante
infiltrate the castle

steal the pendant
and then we'll kill him.

[soft music]

[hawk screaming]

>> So tell me Assante,

what is your next step?

>> I need answers
to my questions first.

>> Make yourself comfortable,
while, I make some coffee.

>> Thanks, my dear.

>> Our security was
state of the art.

I understood only
five people knew about it.

And they're all accounted for,
including my dead partner.

Who else knew about it?

>> Assante, you put on
a good show.

>> I didn't realize
we had a guest.

I have news for you.>> Oh!

>> Princess Angelica will be
soon wearing the pendant.

>> Now, that proves
he's innocent.

>> Hardly.

He could still be
in on it with her.

>> Don't let me
interrupt your work.

>> What does it take
to prove my innocence?

>> It is very simple.

The princess has my pendant,

and I want you
to get it back for me.

>> Thank you, thank you.

It's good to be home.

[applause]

Let the festivities begin.

[middle eastern music]

>> Hi Walter.

I'm about to do
something really stupid.

I hope it works.

[seatbelt clicking]

[tires screeching]

>> Hey, what was that?

>> Hey mister,
are you okay?

>> Ohh!

>> Lets bring him inside.

>> I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

>> Don't move this,
gently, gently.

[middle eastern music]

>> He needs help.

>> Quiet!

Explain to me.

>> Who are you?

>> I'm Angelica
and this is my family.

I hope for your sake,
you were not intending

to bring misfortune
to our people.

>> I'm not.

I just need my car fixed.

>> Come up here.

Let me see your hands.

>> Why?>> Hands never lie.

They reveal
what's in your heart.

You can count
on our hospitality.

>> Thank you.

>> Walk with me.

>> Find out who he is.

[middle eastern music]

[clapping and singing]

>> You're not from around here.

>> No I live in Canada now.

Your accent.

You must have spent
some time in the west.

>> Harvard.

Bachelor of Science.>> Wow!

>> But I came back to my people
when my father died.

[clapping and singing]

>> Why would you
want to remain here?

>> It's in my blood?

Maybe you
understand it full time

you need to know
where you come from.

It's hard to understand
the ways of our people.

In the morning, I'll have
someone help you with your car.

>> Thank you.

[soft music]

[dog barking]

[dog barking]

[phone ringing]

>> Hello.

>> Yeah, Hi.

Sue, is Professor Amid there?

>> He's busy right now.

>> Tell him
I've got the pendant,

meet me at the dam.

I feel very badly about this.

>> I'll give him
the message, Mark.

[chanting morning prayers]

>> Zana! Zana!

My pendants gone.

>> The stranger's
not in his room.

>> Get him
and my pendant back now.

He's probably on foot

send Chaouki
with the horsemen after him.

[chanting morning prayers]

[horse neighing]

[dramatic music]

>> Allah!

>> Sue, I thought you said

the Professor
was meeting us here.

>> He's busy.
He asked me to come instead.

Do you have the pendant?

Thank you very much.

You've stolen
the second pendant

>> Second pendant.

>> The two pendants lead
to the lost Ottoman treasure.

>> Who are you working for?

>> You won't live
long enough to find out.

>> Hands up, go over there,
move, move.

[telephone ringing]

>> Hello.

>> Hi, partner.>> Susan.

>> I have the second pendant.

>> Excellent. And what
did you do with Assante?

>> He's being
taken care of as we speak.

[dramatic music]

>> Aah!

>> I want you to bring
the pendant directly to me.

>> I'm on my way now.

Remember, you promised
to take care of me.

>> Hey, darling,
don't worry.

Have I ever failed you?

>> No, no, not you my sweet.

I trust you implicitly.

[water roaring]

[dramatic music]

>> Have you heard any news?

>> Zana is on
her way to see you.

>> Your Highness,

the stranger
has returned to the castle.

>> I can explain.

>> You have dishonored us.

Sit down.

Where's the pendant?

>> It was taken from me.

>> Who has it and why?

>> I know where to find it,
but I'll need some help.

That's why I came back here.

>> Really?

There are two pendants.

If they're put together,
they form a map

to a hidden treasure.

>> I've never heard this.

>> I just found out myself.

>> Liar.

>> I'm telling the truth.

>> Why should I give you
a second chance?

>> We have to work together
if you want to recover
your pendant.

Otherwise you'll
never see it again.

>> You're lucky,
I believe you.

Keep an eye on him.

Tara, this is Mark Assante.

>> I assume he's the reason
you called for me.

>> Mr. Assante is the person

who snuck into my room
and stole the pendant.

Now he's come asking
for our help to recover it.

>> Who's this person?

>> This person is my sister.

>> That pendant's been in
our family for 16 generations.

I suspected
you were trouble.

>> I've already apologized.

If I can't get any
assistance from either of you,

I'll find
the damn thing by myself.

All I wanted was
a couple of men to help me.

>> No, you will not
take any of our men.

>> Well, then, it's settled.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

I'll mail you the pendant
once I find it.

>> I'm going with you.

>> You?>> That's right.

I don't trust you,
Mr. Assante.

And I'm certainly not going
to let you out of my sight.

>> We have to go to
Professor Amid's house first.

Let's go.

>> I still can't figure it out.

>> You asked for two pendants,
we got you two pendants.

Now, what's your problem?

>> Combining these
two pendants together,

I'm supposed to get
a clue to the location

of the lost treasure
of the Ottoman Empire.

>> What exactly
is the lost treasure?

>> Think of a mountain,

a mountain of solid gold coins.

You would be so rich,

you wouldn't know
what to do with them all.

>> That's just great.

Except you can't
figure out the puzzle.

Listen Chang, I've been really
patient with you up till now.

I'm the one
who's taken all the risks.

You better figure it out
and figure it out now.

>> Get out of my face, huh?

Without me, you'd still
be doing shit for Assante.

So don't start
telling me what to do.

Go get Professor Amid.

He's the only one that can
interpret the information

on these pendants.

Bring him to my warehouse.

>> No problem.

[laughing]

>> How cute.

>> Oh, my God.>> Who the hell are you?

>> Where's your daddy,
the Professor?

>> Hey, don't move, or I'll blow
the fucking girl away.

Akhmed cuff 'em.

You'll have to do
until we find your daddy.

Come on, little girl,
you're coming with me.

>> Get your hands off me.

>> Get your hands
off of me you asshole.>> Let go. Let go.

[dramatic music]

>> Come on out of the car.

>> Get off of me. Get off of me.>> Out of the car.

>> Get off of me.[girl screaming]

>> You bastard, let go.

>> What's the matter
with you people?

Where you taking me?

>> Let go.

>> Up those stairs,
come on, move it.

Come on.

>> Let go.

>> Get in.

The Professor
wasn't at his home.

But I understand he is at
the excavation site in Byblos.

I'll get him now.

Sue this shouldn't take long.

[men speaking in Arabic]

Professor Amid.

>> What?

>> You're coming with me.

>> What are you doing?

Take your hands off me.

[dramatic music]

>> Aah!

[dramatic music]

>> It's about time.

>> Take your hand off me.

>> Come on Amid, out.

Let's go, come on.

>> Where are you taking me?

>> Professor, you're about
to meet an old friend.

>> Oh, my God.

>> Professor.

Good afternoon.

>> You've always
wanted what I have.

>> Please sit here.

>> I should
have known it was you.

>> The trouble
with people like you is,

you're too naive.

With all your intelligence,

knowledge of the history

treaties of the world.

You still trust people.

You let your wife know
about the pendants

and the inscriptions on them.

And Ivan he knew about your
departure dates, arrival times,

it didn't take me
long to find Ivan

and win him.

Greed is a universal trait.

And Ivan has his share of it.

>> What do you want from me?

>> Good question.

You see,

you know, the inscriptions
on those pendants

now transcribed them.

>> No!

No!

I said, No!

>> Then we have
a surprise for you.

>> Come on little girl,
let's show your dad.

>> No, let go, no.

>> No, no, not Nicole.

>> Do you like it?

>> Okay, Okay.

>> That's very noble of you,
transcribe,

I said, now.

>> Check all the rooms.

Professor Amid.

Sue, anybody.

>> The place is empty.

>> Nobody.

>> Where's my pendant?

Don't even think about
lying to me again.

>> I don't know where it is,

Sue the woman who took
it from me, lives here.

>> That's good professor,
very good.

>> I want to get into
my home file.

>> All right.

[phone ringing]

>> Kill him now.

>> Wait, wait, the computer.

Hey, take a look at this.

Somebody's accessing
the Professor's computer.

It's him.

This is his own password.

[dramatic music]

>> Can I have a drink of water?

>> You want water?

>> Aah!>> Here's some water, bitch.

>> Sue, quite
the loving stepmother, ah?

>> I've got it.

>> Excellent.

You are a genius, Professor.

>> You will need to keep me
alive if you want the treasure.

You won't be able to
translate the secret codes.

>> Maybe I can
and maybe I can't.

And I can Professor.

[gun firing]

Poor Professor.

He just didn't know
what this information was worth.

[computer beeping]

Looks like
we're going to Baalbek.

>> Chaouki, call the police.

We're off to Baalbek.

[dramatic music]

>> D2 is the coordinates.

Right there.

[dramatic music]

Come on.

According to this clue,

you need to make it over
to the Jupiter Temple.

These are
the correct inscriptions.

[dramatic music]

Ramsey,

you stay here and make
sure we're not followed.

>> Yes, sir.

[dramatic music]

>> Yes, there should be
an entrance around here.

There, I think the entrance
must be on the other side.

> I wonder if Chaouki made it.

There.>> I sent him
around the other way.

>> According to this,
it leads this way.

[dramatic music]

It's got to be somewhere.

Look, over there.

>> Yeah.

[dramatic music]

>> We should be getting closer.

There's the Jupiter columns.

>> Come on,
there are the columns.

[dramatic music]

>> There, Bacchus Temple.

[dramatic music]

We're nearly there.

[dramatic music]

According to the map

the treasure should be
directly below us.

At noon, a shaft of light
will mark the spot.

>> Which way?

>> Let's split up.

I'll go this way.

>> Careful.

>> Down.

>> Almost there,
you can smell it.

Watch your step.

Stairs are slippery.

That's it, down there.

Sue get the light over here
and stay close to me.

[dramatic music]

>> We'll be rich.

>> Yes. Yes.

>> Maybe we'll have
100 million dollars.

>> Yes, yes,
one hundred, two hundred,

maybe three hundred,
who knows.

Come on.

>> Aah!

[Sue screaming]

[dramatic music]

>> Sue.

>> More treasure for us.

>> Man isn't this something.

>> Light 'em.

>> Shit, look how
dry it is, huh.

Take a look around, will ya.

>> Wow.

>> They must
have killed the slaves

to hide the secret
of the treasure.

>> Spare me
the history lesson, Chang.

>> You're getting
kind of bold, aren't you!

Start looking around?

>> Chang, Chang,
look where the light strikes.

>> Bring the light over here.

Let's see.

No, it's the same
inscription as on the pendant.

Half of the writing
on this pendant.

>> Look, look.

>> Yeah, the other half
on a different pendant.

This is it.
[laughing]

>> Ha, ha, ha, whoo!

>> Ah-ha!

[dramatic music]

>> I can smell
the goddamn treasure.

>> It's not here.

[dramatic music]

>> Yes, that's it.

>> Whoo-ho, yeah.

>> Get that side.

>> There's nothing in here.

[dramatic music]

>> This is it,
where's the million?

>> I don't know.

After all that work.

It's like this
just enough for one buddy.

Step back.

So long baby.

[dramatic music]

>> Arrgh!

[rumbling]

>> Ivan, you should be dead.

>> No, you should be dead.

I spared your life.

[rumbling]

[laughing maniacally]

>> I'm rich, I'm rich.

[loud thud]

[rumbling]

[loud thud]

[rumbling]

[rumbling]

[gun firing]
>> Aah!

[dramatic music]

>> You set me up, why?

>> I let you live.

I won't make
that mistake again.

>> You're coming with me.

>> No.

[crying]

>> Son of a bitch,
you're a dead man.

>> Ivan.

>> Shoot me!

Ivan, don't make me!

>> Shoot me!

Ivan.

You know, I can't do it,

but I'm not letting you
walk away without a fight.

>> Yeah.

Let's get it on. Come on.

>> You want to
make it personal, eh?

>> I can feel it, Mark.

I can feel the energy.

I can feel it.

[hawk screaming]

Let's do it, man.

Just like the old days.

Let's get it on, man. Come on.

>> Okay.

[dramatic music]

You killed my Uncle.

>> I did and your next.

[dramatic music]

>> That's it.

Ivan give up.>> No.

>> That's it.

>> Oh. Ow, ow.

[dramatic music]

>> Come on.

[dramatic music]

> Your really
working me Ivan, eh.

>> Goodbye Mark.

>> That's it Ivan.>> No, no.

>> Ivan, Ivan.>> No, no.

[dramatic music]

>> Come on.

[dramatic music]

[sirens wailing]

>> That's it, that's it.

[police yelling]

Ivan, that's it Ivan.

Ivan.

Ivan.

[police radio]

>> I kept my promise.

>> Thank you.

[dramatic music]

>> Chief Gordon.>> Well, Assante.

Looks like I was wrong
about you this time.

>> Don't take it so hard.

I'm sure you have
plenty of other people

to occupy your time.

>> Chief!

>> Yeah, I'll be right there.

Don't think that means

that I'm not going to
keep an eye out on you.

>> It's people like you
that help keep me honest.

Heh!

[dramatic music]
