Las Vegas (2003–2008): Season 4, Episode 5 - Delinda's Box: Part 1 - full transcript

Okay.

Who the hell are you?

Call me Mr. Chips.

That's Tibbs. Mr. Tibbs.
Jag off.

I've got the gun.
I'm whoever I want to be.

What do you want?

I have the silly idea of
combining my two favorite things.

What's that?
Gay sex and suicide?

(GRUNTS)

That one hurt, huh?

No more in the face.



No, I was thinking more like
kidnapping and robbery.

Yeah?

You might as well
kill me now, then,

because you're not going
to make a dime out of me.

That's quite a bit of bravado,
Mr. Deline.

But I have no intention
of killing you.

That's funny, because I have
every intention of killing you.

I do, however, have no problem
at all killing your daughter.

Daddy!
Delinda!

You're dead. You're dead!
No! Daddy, help me!

It's all right, honey.
I'm here!

The death of a daughter is
like a needle in the heart, ain't it?

You're gonna wish
that you were never born.

Wow. That was just like
out of a movie.



Goosebumps.
Daddy!

Daddy! Daddy!

As you've now come
to understand, Ed,

this sandy grave was not prepared
for you, but rather for your daughter.

And by the way, Delinda Deline?
Ridiculous name. Ridiculous.

What do you want?

What do I want?
I want world peace,

I want fair elections,
penis reduction.

But I'd settle for you stealing
$50 million from the casino for me.

(DELINDA YELLING)

Daddy!

Let her go and I'll help you.

Rob your casino or she dies.
What do you say, Ed?

Daddy! No! No! No!

It's gonna be okay, honey.
I'm gonna get you out of here.

Daddy!

Daddy!

You don't have to put her
in a box, do you?

Daddy!

You're a son of a bitch.

So brave.

Now, Ed,

your daughter's gonna have to calm down
or it's going to end very badly for her.

Honey, you're gonna have to
stop fighting now.

Daddy, help me.

Honey, just do what
they say, all right?

You have 12 hours to steal $50 million in
nonsequential bills from the Montecito.

It's not enough time.

Well, it has to be.

See, that's the exact amount
of air I'm putting in the casket

for your daughter to breathe.

Daddy, please!

I know. Nice touch, right?

Now, the money
cannot be traceable.

So if any dye packs or electronic
devices are detected on the money,

Delinda will die.

Understood.

For your daughter's security,
and, for that matter, mine,

you cannot tell anyone
what you're doing.

You will be watched and
monitored at all times.

What do I tell my people?

A bedtime story?

One word about any of this,
and Delinda dies.

Seriously, did you choose
her name, or did your wife?

Why don't you go to hell?

In time, Ed, in time.

Now, your anklet has
a GPS monitor in it,

and also an audio transmitter that will
relay any and all conversations you have.

It's also packed with
enough high-density C-4

to blow your legs
clear off your body.

If at any time you fail
to comply with our plans,

the explosives will be detonated
and your daughter killed.

Are we clear?

Yeah.
Good.

No! No! No!

No! No! No! No!

You'll be all right, honey.

No! No! No! No!

Daddy! Daddy! Daddy! No!

No! No!

Daddy!

"Nor but in merriment
begin a chase,

"Nor but in merriment
a quarrel.

"Oh, that she may live
like some green laurel

"Rooted in one dear
perpetual place."

That's from Yeats.
Apropos, don't you think?

I swear on my mother,

somehow, I will kill you.

(SCREAMING)

Any questions?

(DELINDA SHOUTING) When
do I get my daughter back?

After I get my money, you'll
be given the location of this grave

and the code to disarm
the explosives on the coffin.

In the coffin, you will find a key
that will unlock your electronic anklet.

Okay, she's in.

DELINDA: Please,
someone help me! Please!

(BEEPING)

Now all we need
is someone to bury her.

You'd better kill us both.

Oh, I'd like to.

(FIRES)

But I need you.

Bury her.
Throw him in the trunk.

Please! Somebody help me!
Daddy!

Nice shirt.

It was a gift.

Give it back.

You must love her very much.
Who?

Whoever bought you that shirt.

(PHONE BEEPS)

(ON ANSWERING MACHINE)
Hi, it's Delinda, leave a message.

Hey, hey, Delinda, sweetie.
Where are you? Call me.

MIKE: Danny.
Hey. Have you seen Delinda?

What?
Have you seen Delinda?

I'm sorry, I can't hear you
over that shirt.

No, seriously, it looks like a donkey and
a rodeo clown and then a shotgun. Pow!

Look, dude,
Delinda gave it to me.

Yo, she got to be
crazy freaky in bed.

That's just not necessary.
(LAUGHING) Sorry.

I'm a little worried
about her.

I woke up this morning
and she wasn't there.

She worked the late shift last night.
Maybe she went to work out.

Then she would have called.

Yeah. She would have called.
I'll look around for her, all right?

Mr. Turner, Mr. Hammond,
welcome to the Montecito.

I'm Sam, your casino host.

Call me Sid.
Sid.

Yes. Willy Hammond.
Hi, Willy.

Millionaire.

Listen, seeing as this is your
first visit to the Montecito,

we just need to verify some account
information with your respective banks.

It's pretty common practice.
We brought cash.

Cash?
Cash. Two million each.

Two million?
Each.

Hi.

Okay.

We will hold that cash
here at our casino cage

and credit your accounts
accordingly.

What type of business
are you two in?

We're not in any
business at all.

(LAUGHING)

No, no, no,
there's no business.

We won the Pennsylvania
State Lottery.

Yeah, me and Willy here
split 20 bucks on some tickets

and we won the whole damn thing. Oh!

BOTH: $43.7 million!

(BOTH GUFFAWING)

(SCREAMS)

This is going to be
a long weekend.

I beg your pardon?

I said, this is going to be
an amazing weekend!

Yeah!

I've arranged for two of the Montecito's
finest suites for your stays.

Oh, great. We're going
to need two rooms together.

Yeah, right next to each other.
Okay, well, I did...

You might want to make that
happen or else we're leaving.

With our cash.

Next to each other it is.

I got to run.

Hey, Ed!

So...

You look awful.

Nice to see you, too.

What happened?

Oh, I fell down at the house.
No big deal. I'm fine.

What do you think?
Go ahead, take your shot.

It's nice.

It's nice? You don't think
it's a little much?

What the hell do I know
about shirts, you know?

Look, I got a really
busy day today,

so I need you to hold down
the fort, okay?

Okay.
All right.

Have you seen Delinda?

She didn't come home last night
and she's not answering her cell phone.

I forgot to tell you that she's...
She's with her sister.

Nessa?
Nessa.

Nessa's here in town?

Do I stutter?

Don't worry about it. Delinda's
gonna call you later, all right?

I haven't seen Nessa in forever.
I'm worried. Yeah, I know.

Hey, listen, do me a favor,
I don't want to be bothered, okay? Huh?

Okay.

Hey, boss, how you doing?

Hey, it's not a good time,
Mary.

There never seems to be a good
time to tell you what I'm thinking

so I'm just gonna go for it.

Ed, I need to be more integral in
the hotel's development and operations.

Great.

Now, with that in mind, I have a plan
to boost the profile of the Montecito

while improving our
customer relations.

Okay.
Montecito needs a mascot.

Right.

You see, a popular mascot can
be a source of corporate identity.

And, you know, statistics, they bear
out everything that I'm saying to you.

Restaurants that
introduce mascots

increase food and beverage
sales as much as 17%.

Sounds great.

Really? You like my idea?

I do. Yeah. Just go for it.

Thank you, Ed.
Okay.

You won't be sorry.

(ELEVATOR BELL DINGS)

Six, please.

You really think this place
needs a mascot?

Ten hours and counting, Eddie.

Temper, temper, Eddie!

You might want to remind
yourself what this is all about.

Huh? It's a pity,
isn't it?

So far you've done a good
job with your security counterparts,

and throwing them
off the trail.

(BELL DINGS)
Stay focused, Eddie.

This is me.

This'll be over soon.

Remember, Eddie, we're watching you.
Always watching.

(GRUNTING)

DANNY: Jillian?

Hi, Danny.

Good news about Nessa, huh?

Nessa? What are you
talking about?

Ed just told me that Nessa's
in town and that she's with Delinda.

Why would Ed tell you that?

So, she's not in town?

Danny, I would know if the daughter
I haven't seen for two years was here.

Yeah, of course you would.

You know what, maybe
I just misunderstood him.

You okay?

Yeah, yeah.
You haven't spoken to Delinda, have you?

No, I got her machine
this morning.

Are you two fighting?

No. No, no, not that
I know of, anyway.

(LAUGHS)

I just... She's not answering
her cell phone, so...

I'm sure she just
lost it again.

Okay. Thank you.

Danny?

Honey, I'm sure she's fine, but
when you talk to her, let me know, okay?

And I'll do the same.
Okay.

Dave,

how much you holding
here on the floor?

Give me a second.

Eighteen million.

Thanks.

Sixteen million.

Six mill.

Thanks.

Nine.

Six.

Fifteen.

This is Ed Deline
at the Montecito.

Customer number 890087.

Yeah, I need an additional
25 million delivered to the casino.

Tell John it's for me
and I need it rushed.

Two hours.

You're ordering more money?
We just got a delivery.

I got a couple of whales coming in,
million-dollar players.

Sorry?

Yeah, thank you.

Are you sure we need that?

No, I'm not sure.
That's why I ordered it.

What is this?
Second-guess Saturday?

Okay, here's an idea for you,

don't spread yourself too thin,
all right, doing both our jobs.

Sorry. Okay, I was just...

What? Leaving?

(STAMMERING) No, Ed, I want
to know why you lied to me about Nessa.

What, you're checking up
on me?

I talked to Jillian.
You don't check up on me.

I am worried about
Delinda, okay?

So am l.

(PHONE RINGS)

Yeah.

CHIPS: Be very careful
here, Ed.

Now, get rid of him
and get me my money.

Right.

I want you on the floor.

Okay.

If you need anything, just...

I know.

I really need you
to leave now.

Hey, Sam,
these rooms are great.

(SAM LAUGHING)

I am so glad you like them.

Now listen, if there is anything I
can do to make your stay more enjoyable,

you don't hesitate to ask,
all right?

Hey, now, the whole hotel
is open to us?

Yeah, of course.

The high-stakes parlor is located
on the main casino floor, now...

Wait. We can't gamble, though,
until the game is finished.

What game?
Hide and seek.

When you say "hide and seek,"
you don't mean...

Yeah. Yeah,
like the kids' game, hide and seek.

Why would you play that?
For money.

Yeah, we put up
a million each.

You're playing hide and seek
for $2 million?

Exactly. And the game starts now.
We're going for 12 hours.

Right. Synchronize
watches. Ready?

Yes.
Okay.

All right?
Yeah.

BOTH: One, two, three.

Scissors cut paper.

(BOTH LAUGHING)
You're it!

Hey, hey, hey, you guys
are going to gamble, right?

Yeah, don't worry
about it. Thirty!

If you don't gamble, I can't extend
the Montecito's hospitality to you.

Why are your whales running?

Because they can't swim.

They're playing
hide and seek.

Right.

How much are they going to
play for over the weekend?

Couple million each.

Do you have any other
high rollers coming in?

No. Just Orville and Wilbur. Why?

Because Ed ordered an extra
25 million to accommodate a guest.

Do you know anything
about that?

No, I don't know
anything about that.

Okay. Keep an eye out.

Oh, this is gonna suck.

Danny said you told him
that Delinda's with Nessa.

No.

Where is Delinda, Ed?

She told me she went
to that spa at Red Rock's.

I guess Danny and her
had some kind of fight,

and she wanted some of that, what
do they call it now? "Private time."

Should I go meet her?

No, no, she'll be fine.

Why didn't she call me?

How should I know?

I mean, she told you,
but she didn't tell me, and...

And why would Danny say
that you said that?

Again, honey,
how should I know?

And I really think that we should
stay out of their personal lives.

This doesn't make any sense.
Why would she...

Jillian, please.

Fine. Having a bad day?

Yeah. I got a lot
of stuff going on.

You'd tell me if there was
something wrong, wouldn't you?

Of course I would.

Okay. I'll see you
at home tonight.

Okay.

Bye.
Bye.

Honey?

I love you.

I love you, too.

Excuse me.

Jodie.

Excuse us for a minute,
please?

Yes, Mr. Deline.
Thank you.

Tommy, listen,

I need you to pack 25 million
cash for transport, all right?

25 million?
Yeah.

For what?

What do you mean,
"for what"?

When do you need it?
I need it right now.

Ed, you know
I can't do that.

To pull that kind of cash
off the floor,

I got to close down
half the casino.

Close down half the casino,
okay?

We lose millions
if I do that.

Listen, this isn't
a freaking debate, Tommy.

Just do what I tell you,
all right?

Now, listen,
I want the money bound,

I want it wrapped in plastic
and put on palates.

I need two signatures
to make it...

I'll sign twice.

You know, I can't do it.
I'll lose my job.

Yeah, you're right, Tom.

Hey, Bill.

Yes, sir?

You just got promoted.
You're new cage manager.

Ed?
You're fired, Tommy. Get out.

Come on, Ed.
I said, get out.

Get out!

You heard.
You understood my request?

Yes, sir. 25 million
right away, Mr. Deline.

You ready?
As I'll ever be.

All right, Mike, I present
to you the Montecito's new mascot.

Ta-da! Monty Montecito.

I don't get it.

He's a prospector.

I can see that.
So?

So, what does prospecting
have to do with the Montecito?

He will help you mine
your fortunes from our casino.

I still don't get it.

Research has shown us
that people want to see

more forty-niner style
prospectors in their casinos.

Research?

The man in the suit
has done stints

as Mayor McCheese,
a Teletubby,

and a brief tour
as Barney Rubble.

I couldn't be more excited.

And you're sure you
cleared this with Ed?

Yeah. He told me to
go for it, so I say

we let Monty Montecito show people
just how much fun this hotel can be.

Come on, Monty.
Everybody, this is Monty Montecito!

The Montecito
has a mascot.

I see that. I don't get
the whole prospector thing.

Not so much.

Do you know that Ed just fired Tommy,
the cage manager?

Tommy? He's been with Ed forever.
He'd never do that.

He just did it.
I just talked to Tommy.

He said that he questioned him about
taking 25 million bucks off the floor.

I saw a security manifest
sent from the bank.

Ed just ordered an additional
25 million to be brought in.

What the hell's going on, Mike?

Like that damn mascot.
It's not making any sense.

No. We need to find out what
Ed is going to do with 50 million bucks.

Mitch, pull up surveillance
footage of Ed today.

You got it.
Thanks.

Who the hell is that?

MIKE: What's he showing him?

Zoom in.

Can't. It's blown out.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Something is seriously wrong.

Okay. I think that this
has something to do with Delinda

because he told me
that she's with Nessa.

Nessa?
Yeah.

But she's...
I know.

I think that it was Ed's way
of tipping me off.

Mitch, video lQ the guy
in the elevator, will you?

MITCH: There's no matches.
Want me to try some other databases?

No, keep working on it.

There should be some
surveillance footage of Delinda.

Delinda?
Yeah.

Look at this.
The guy keeps popping up.

See this? Look at that. Here.

Same guy here.

Then again right here.

Hey, show me the entrance
from shift change.

She's alone.

There he is again.

Mitch, video lQ this guy,
will you?

MITCH: Here we go.

Russ DeBeers.
He's got a record for felony assault.

What the hell is she doing?
She's getting in the car.

MIKE: He could have a gun.

No license plate.

Where the hell is she?

(DRILL WHIRRING)

Hey!

Hey!
Hi, Sam.

Hi, what the hell
are you doing?

What? I say,
what the hell are you doing?

He's in the shower.

Okay, listen, I need to know
when you and Willy plan on gambling.

Soon. Real soon.

Listen, this is...

I'll pay for it.

No. Uh-uh!

(WATER TRICKLING)

Okay, I'm sorry.
I can't... I...

No, no, no, no, no.
Listen to me. That... Hey! Come here!

(SMACKING)
WILLY: Hey! Ow!

Can I have my shoe back?

Are you going to gamble?
Yes, ma'am.

Thank you. He's naked.

Oh, hey, Sam.
Which way did he go?

Thataway.

Put some clothes on.

Took you long enough.
It's been three minutes.

And why in the hell would
you want to meet in here?

You know brothers
can't stand the cold.

They're out there.
Who?

Whoever it is
that's watching Ed.

They're tracking
his movements,

who he's interacting with.

He lied to me. He tried to
take 50 million bucks off the floor,

and where the hell is Delinda?

Kidnappers.

So what do we do?

We help him.

Hey, he grabbed my...

(BEEPING)

The money is coming in. Everything's
pretty much business as usual.

Great.

Oh, I almost forgot that problem
in the casino southeast bathroom.

Yeah?

The problem was in one of the stalls,
it's been fixed.

I know you wanted
to check it out.

Yeah, when I get a chance.

Okay. Okay, I'm going
back to the floor.

Oh, Danny...

I just want to say thanks,
kid.

No problem.

Sid, hi, we need to talk.

In a minute, okay?

So, anyway, we're at
the high roller suite.

You should come up
for a drink.

Yeah, that'd be great.

Yeah. And maybe if
you had a friend,

you know, you could bring her along,
and who knows...

Ow! Hey! Wait a...

Hey!

(PEOPLE SNICKERING)

Wow. It's pretty cold
in there, huh?

How you doing?
I wish I was dead.

Yeah, I can see why.
You see the mascot I brought in?

No, and I have no desire to see the...
Tough. Come with me.

I'm not kidding. I really...

(WOMAN LAUGHING)

It's great. Great!

Cheese.

I don't get it.

He's a prospector.

(EXCLAIMS)

Looks like he struck
something.

WOMAN: Monty, stop that! Hey!

(TOILET FLUSHES)

Hey, I lost my pants.

I got it.
I got it under control.

WOMAN: He did not!

MAN: Seven!

(ALL CHEERING)

Hey!

Yep.

Okay, I'm having a GPS tracking
device put under the firewall,

detectable only if the
bad guys find a frequency.

The helicopter's ready
to go on your order.

Okay.

Okay, good. I want you
to oversee hotel security

and be the liaison between
the FBl once we get Delinda back, okay?

And you are going
to get her back.

You bet your ass.

Yeah?

I was asked to deliver this
personally to you, Mr. Deline.

Thank you.

(DIALING)

(PHONE RINGING)

Hello, Ed,
nice of you to call.

I can do without
the pleasantries.

When the money arrives, you
will drive it towards Henderson alone.

You will receive further
instructions on this cell phone.

Any deviation from this plan will
be noncompliance and your daughter dies.

Understood?

Yeah. Understood.

Look forward to
seeing you, Ed.

You have no idea.

MIKE: Notify Mr. Deline and
send guards out to the truck.

Okay.

25 million just arrived
at the loading dock.

Okay. Let's pull the other
25 million off the floor.

Let's close down
half the gaming tables,

the north and south slot areas
and all the high roller pits.

Let's do it.

Hey, hey, hey! Stop.

What's up, Sam?

I've had enough.
That's what's up.

Okay, you need to either gamble
or I'm throwing you out.

What, why didn't you
say something?

I can get my gamble on.

I did say it.

Excuse me, excuse me.
I'm sorry. Excuse me.

My man, 500,000 red.

500,000 red.

Place your bets.

And no more bets, please.

36 red!

(ALL EXCLAIMING)
Damn!

Yes!

Credit my account.

Nice. You see?

See you!
Yeah... No!

Hey, you need to gamble
or you're out of here.

Why didn't you just
say something?

Excuse me. Excuse me.

500,000, black.

500,000, black.

13. Winner! Black 13!

(CROWD CHEERING)

Credit my account!

You really should
have golf carts.

You should really
have a heart attack.

I need you to shut down
blackjack tables 18 through 51.

Does Mr. Deline know about this? Yes.

Per his orders.
Now. Now.

(lNAUDIBLE)

Down this way.

Mr. Deline,
I don't have to tell you

that this is breaking
security protocol.

I'll indemnify you. Here,
you got something for me to sign here?

All right, load the money
in the truck, will you?

Yes, sir.

Load it up, guys.

(PEOPLE CHEERING)

Oh!

(LAUGHING)

One, two, three, four,
five, six, seven...

Thirty! Ah!

Touch me and
I will kick your ass.

All right, thanks.

The helicopter's waiting
for you on the roof. Thanks.

Let me know when you get
Delinda back and I'll make the call.

Do nothing until
I tell you she's safe.

You got it.

Let's go!

(BEEPING)

Keep your distance.

Roger that.

Hey! Hey! Oh, no, no!

Monty,

you're fired.

'Cause you're drunk.

Yes.

You were also
fondling guests.

We have a dozen complaints
against you.

Sorry, Monty,
but we're going to have to let you go.

I'm sorry. Get up.

No, no, no, come on.
Come on. You're embarrassing yourself.

You're out of here, pal.
You're out of here. Come on.

Yeah.

I guess I got to
whoop some foam ass.

Yeah.

(GRUNTING)

Get out of here!

And stay out,
you foam low life! Oh.

No, no, no, no, no.

Nicely handled.

You know, it's sad when
a mascot loses his way.

Three more seconds
and I win $1 million.

Mmm.

And then you will gamble?

Absolutely.
Ten, nine, eight, seven...

Who the hell are you?
Four, three, two...

Hey, who the hell is that guy? Let's go.

(LAUGHING)

I won a million dollars,
baby!

(EXCLAIMS)

Thanks for the suit, Sam.

No problem.

Hey, credit my account.

Oh! No!

This is a do-over.
What?

I'm not paying you.
We said nothing about costumes!

It's not the point.

I would have been a big
chipmunk and you know that.

No! You always do that!
I love to dress up!

Do-over! It's a do-over!
You could have...

You're ridiculous!
I ain't paying you.

You're sad. You're a million...
You cheap millionaire!

Get out of the truck.

Hands where I can see them.

Money's in the truck.

All right. Check the money for dye packs,
transmitters, number sequences on the bills.

Where is my daughter?

Patience, Ed, patience.

No patience, pal.
Right now, where is she?

Now.

Money's clean.

Okay, move to the truck.
Let's go!

Okay.

Here's your daughter.

Now, time is running out,
so if I were you, I would hurry.

Come on, guys. Let's go!

Come on! Step it up!

Oh, hey, Chips...

(GRUNTS)

Want me to kill him?

No. No.

That'll happen soon enough.
Take the keys out of the truck.

Let's go! Finish up!

Ed, good punch.

(GRUNTING)

Enjoy your walk. Let's go!

Yeah?
ED: Danny.

Danny, listen,
Delinda's buried.

Did you just say
Delinda's buried?

Yeah.

Where?

The coordinates are north 36-04,
west, 115-09.

Okay. Got it.

When you get there,
dig up the box, but do not open it.

It's rigged with explosives.

I'll give you the combination.

Okay.

Okay. All right.
We're on our way.

(BEEPING)

My God.

Okay, we're here.

(DEVICE BEEPING)

(RAPID BEEPING)

Right here. Right here!

Okay. Give me
the combination.

The combination is 7, 11, 12.

7, 11, 12.

Seven...

Come on.

Ed, she's not here.
Delinda's not here!

Son of a bitch.

Danny, I'm not going
to make it, kid.

You got to find Delinda
and bring her back.

What are you talking about?

There's no time.
Just promise me you'll find her.

Promise me!

Ed! Ed!

Ed, listen to me!

Ed! Listen to...

I'll see you, kid.

Ed!

Ed!

Ed, listen to me, there's a can
of spray freeze and some bolt cutters

under the front seat
of your truck!

A can of what?

Spray freeze! Grab it and
spray it on the timer device! Go!

Okay, now freeze the timer!

Spray the whole can, it'll
give you a couple of extra seconds.

Now, cut it off!

Ed, cut it off!

(EXPLOSION)

Ed?

Ed!

Talk to me, Ed!

Ed!

Your father's dead.

To the airfield.

Put on something snappy.

ED: Danny!

Danny!

Ed? Ed, is that you?

What the hell?
Were you gonna just leave me out here?

You son of a bitch!
I thought you were dead.

Well, I'm not.
Get your ass over here and pick me up.

We got to go find Delinda.

Okay. I'm coming!

Did you finally get your
hide-and-seeking whales out there?

Oh, yeah.
You bet your ass.

I also got them to leave more than
half their money at the craps table.

(GIGGLES)

Hey, why is half the
casino still closed?

It's a computer problem
at the bank.

We haven't gotten
our money shipment yet.

But as soon as they fix it,
we'll get everybody up and running.

This place is getting
weirder and weirder.

Mike, we have
a major problem.

I can't find Danny
and Delinda anywhere.

Yeah, they're both not feeling
well tonight. What's the problem?

Well, that's just it.
Most of the staff,

they called in sick
with the flu.

Really? Yeah. And I had to send the ones

who wanted work home so
they don't get the guests sick.

But the worst part is that
we have a high-profile critic

coming in from
Hotel Traveler Magazine

to do a feature on the
Montecito with no staff.

First the mascot thing,
now this.

Basically, I'm screwed.

And everybody's gonna blame me.
Nobody's gonna blame you.

Of course they'll blame me.
They always blame me. No.

"Oh, Mary, why can't she
do anything right?

"And what does she
do here anyway?"

I hear them talking.

Mary, nobody talks about you.

Really? Why not?

Maybe you're making
too much of this.

I'm just going to have to
prove to everybody how valuable I am.

(PHONE RINGS)

Hello.

Yeah.

Yeah, I'll be right there.

Only two servers showed up
at Wolfgang's today

and all the customers
are complaining.

(CELL PHONE RINGING)

I got to take this.

Oh, you were a waitress
once, right?

No.

You'll be fine. I'll be
there as soon as I can.

(CELL PHONE RINGING)

I'm coming!

MIKE: Danny, how is she?

We didn't get her back.

She's not...

I can't even think about that.
Listen to me.

I need you to get Jillian down
to the Montecito as soon as possible.

Of course. Where is she?

At home.

Use a full security team and bring
her in through the underground garage.

And do not tell anyone, Mike.

Business as usual.
You're in charge.

I'll call you when we land.

Got it.

Looks like he's headed to the
Jefferson Airport outside of Henderson.

How did you get
a GPS bug on him?

I hope you got
a good shot in.

I did.

Let's go get this guy.

If we move now,
he'll kill Delinda for sure.

I got to figure a way
to shut down that airport.

Got it.

Alan Jeffries in
Homeland Security.

I met him at
a security seminar.

I hooked his brother's
bachelor party up.

Alan! Danny McCoy.

Great, thanks.

Listen, we have a possible terrorist
situation happening down here.

Yes, heavily armed.

Last headed towards the Jefferson
Airport outside of Henderson.

Yeah, I need you to
shut down that airfield.

Okay, thanks.
I'll call you back.

You know how many laws
you just broke?

I don't care. All I care
about is getting Delinda back.

I'm just saying
I like the attitude.

You just bought us some time.

Force them into plan B.

What about our plan?

Our plan.

Get my daughter back
and kill them all.

(PHONE RINGING)

ROBB: Yeah.

Okay.

We got a problem.
Tommy caught it on the scanner.

They're shutting down the airfield
because of a terrorist threat.

Damn it.

I hope for your sake your
boyfriend didn't do anything stupid.

Very ladylike.

(GRUNTS)

Take us back
to the warehouse.

(PEOPLE CHATTERING)

Hey, Sam.
Yeah?

We got a guy playing
1,000 a spin on table nine.

He's up about 100 grand.
Is he with you?

100 grand?
Yeah.

Yes, he is with me.

No more bets.

22. Black 22. A winner.

35,000, sir.

Hello.

Hey. Welcome to the Montecito.
I'm Samantha Marquez.

I'm your casino host.

I would like to extend to you all of
the luxuries the Montecito has to offer.

Luxury, Miss Marquez,
is the freedom not to want.

I need of nothing,

but I thank you
for your graciousness.

Please, accept this.

You will hold these
for me, please?

Of course, sir.

What the hell was that?

Hot, hot, hot, hot, hot.

Can we get a menu?

There you go.
Enjoy your meal.

We didn't order this.

No?

No, we ordered pizzas.

Coming right up.

Mary, soup's up!
Okay.

(BOTH SCREAM)

(GROANING)

Would you like some freshly
ground pepper with that?

You're never gonna get away.

If that's the case,
why don't I just kill you right now?

Because you need me.

I'm the only chip
you got left, Chips.

I got 50 million chips, blondie.

You're just chump change to me.

You're going to die, you know.

They shut down your airport.
It's only a matter of time.

By the time the police
figure any of this out,

I'll be on a beach
earning 20%.

I'm glad you think
this is all funny.

What's so funny is you actually
think the police will be involved.

There'll be no police, no FBl.

There'll only be men whose sole responsibility
will be to hunt you down and kill you.

All of you.

And they will.

They always do.

Well, then.
Let's just see about that.

Get me Danny McCoy.

(PHONE DIALING)

(PHONE RINGS)

Dan McCoy.

Danny McCoy.

What a pleasure it is
to finally speak to you.

So what are you doing,
scumbag?

Eddie. You're a pesky pain
in the ass, aren't you?

Let me talk to my daughter.

I don't think that's
going to be possible.

(HANGS UP)

(STAMMERS) What'd you do?

He's going to call back.

(SCOFFS)

Seems your father's
still alive.

(PHONE DIALING)

(PHONE RINGS)

Yeah?

Daddy?

Honey, are you okay?

Daddy, I'm okay.

Okay, you've spoken to her.
Now, this is what I want.

I want the Montecito jet
fueled up and ready to go.

Once we're in the air I'll
give the pilot instructions,

and then I will give you
the whereabouts of your daughter.

Any attempt to try any...

No.

What did you just say to me?

I said no.

Maybe you've forgotten...

You listen to me, scumbag.

The deal was the money
for my daughter.

Now if you'd have
just given her back,

all this crap would
have been over.

Now it's my show.

And I'm not letting you leave.

Sucks to be you.

All right. Here, hold this.

According to this, they're
located out near the Alamo mines.

There's a warehouse out where they
used to store heavy mining equipment.

It'd be a perfect place
to store a few SUVs full of money.

How well do you know it?

It's been a while.
I used to do some shooting out there.

We're going to find out
everything we can about it.

Do some shooting again.

Ed? Ed?

Oh, thank God. Oh, honey.

Where's our daughter?

She's okay, she's okay.

They've got her there
in some warehouse.

So, you've called
the police and the FBl?

No, we can't.

What?
We can't.

If you're not going
to call them, I will.

No, please, stop.

Let go!

Look at me.
What?

If we call,
they will kill her.

No, no.

(SOBBING)

No.

JILLIAN: No.

It's going to be okay.

Trust me, okay?

(CLEARS THROAT)

I've taken it upon
myself to arrange

one of our most beautiful suites
for you to use during your stay with us.

All of your food and beverages
will be comped,

and I'm not wearing
any panties.

Or a bra.

I'm completely shaven.

Bald.

(SLOT MACHINE DINGS)

Hi, welcome back.

I was just trying
to tell you that

the generosity of the Montecito
for our preferred guests

knows no bounds.

Sometimes, when we are generous
in small, barely detectable ways,

we can change the life
of someone else forever.

Hmm.

Wow.

A penny.

Okay.

Mitch, what have you got?

This. This monk just hit
a $20,000 slot jackpot.

And?

And it's his third one
tonight.

The odds of that
are astronomical.

Plus he's already taken us for 300 grand
and some change off the table games.

So, what's his con?

He prays.

Come again?

He prays. He finds a machine,

he prays for a few minutes,
he pulls the handle and wins.

That's not possible.
Video lQ him.

Tsuldi Tendar.
Born in Lhasa, Tibet.

He became a monk after
studying at the Gadong Monastery.

He makes a pilgrimage to
Las Vegas every seven years.

I heard about this guy.
I thought he was just

a legend in the Vegas
security circle.

Yeah, he comes in and cleans
out one casino during his stay.

Does he cheat?

He's got to.
No one's that lucky.

But nobody's been
able to catch him.

You want to run him
out of here?

No. Let's keep an eye on him.

If this guy is cheating,
I'm going to be the one to catch him.

So, I talked to my guy
at Homeland Security.

He said that there's
a heavy presence

at all the airports and
airfields in the area.

No one's going to get out
without an inspection.

What about driving?

No. No way.

I got an APB on
three black SUV's.

And I got a scanner, so...

And I don't think
they'd take that chance.

I guess they're going to
hole up at that warehouse

until things start
cooling off.

What do you say we
take a look ourselves, huh?

(KNOCKING ON DOOR)

Housekeeping!

I can't believe
I have to do this.

Get a flu shot,
for the love of God.

Hi.

Hi.

Glad you finally came.
I've been calling all morning.

Yeah. We're a little
short-staffed today.

You're the one who
spilled soup on me.

Oh, my.

Oh, jeez,
I am so sorry about that.

So, what, you wait tables and do
housekeeping? (GASPS) Did you see that?

Oh, no, no, no.

We're just having a little
bit of a flu epidemic amongst the staff

so I'm just kind of
filling in where needed.

Lucky you, huh?
Yeah, lucky...

Lucky me.

If you don't mind,
I got to do my workout.

Oh, please.

By all means,
knock yourself out.

The gym's on the second floor.

(UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING ON STEREO)

MAN: Congratulations.

He's not counting.

And he's not past-posting
or catching the hole card.

How much is he up now?

Over 800 grand.

Keep him here.
Do anything you have to,

but I do not want him walking
out of here with our money.

Do monks like hookers?

I don't know about monks,
but I do.

Keep him here.

Hey.

Hello.

Hi. How are you enjoying
your stay thus far?

The time I have spent here has filled
my heart with peace and understanding.

Oh. I see it's also filled
your robe there with 50s and 100s, huh?

What is it you are
searching for, Sam?

Me? Nothing.
I've got everything I need.

Why would you ask me something
like that? 'Cause I'm totally fine.

I'm great, in fact.

Totally. I'm fine.

You suffer.

Oh, no, no. I don't suffer.
Mmm-mmm.

Suffer from what?

When you are suffering,
you should examine

whether you can do
anything about it.

If you can,
there is no need to worry.

If you cannot, there is
also no need to worry.

I have found this
most enjoyable.

Thank you.

I don't suffer.

I'm suffering from these
crazy conversations.

That's what
I'm suffering from.

I don't suffer.

Shut up.

All right, there she is.
Northwest corner. One, two, three...

Four inside,

three outside.

Let me see.

I got to buy some more time. We got
to get these son of a bitches at night.

Give me your phone.
Give me your phone.

(PHONE RINGING)

It's Daddy.

Not a word.

Montecito Savings and Loan,
how can I direct your call?

ED: Okay, pal, you win.

I'm sorry? I don't think
I heard you correctly.

Look, I said, you win.

I'm so happy you finally
came to your senses, Ed.

Now, what did you
have in mind?

The Montecito jet, take you, your men,
the money anywhere you want to go.

No, no. The airports, Ed,

they're all on high security
thanks to you.

They'll never let
the plane leave.

It will if I'm with you.

You let Delinda go
and take me.

And I'll clear everything up
at the airport, all right?

Very well.

I'll call you with
the time and place

where we're going to make
our little exchange.

It's got to be face to face.

Now, what good is
that going to do, Ed?

I got to know that
Delinda's alive.

You already talked to her.

No, that could have
been recorded.

I got to see her.

Okay.

All right. I'll let you know.
I'll give you a call.

No, I'll call you.

What are you, crazy?

It's the only way, Danny boy.
It's the only way.

Boys,

Grand Cayman, here we come.

(ALL CHEERING)

All right!

(CHATTERING)

Hey.
Hey.

Do you think I suffer?

Suffer? Suffer how?

Suffer, like, do you think
I'm a happy person?

No.
"No"? What do you mean, "no"?

Of course I'm a happy person.
I'm very happy.

I'm so comfortable
with my happiness

that I don't even need
to explain to you how happy I am.

Okay, you're happy.

You really don't
think I'm happy?

What the hell
is wrong with you?

What the hell is wrong with you? What?

I think you're the one
who's not happy.

Yeah, yeah, see?

Yeah. You've got problems.

(SLOT MACHINE DINGING)

(ALL EXCLAIMING)

That's enough of that.

Sir, hotel security.
May I talk with you for a moment?

I listen to all things in
the universe with an open heart.

Yeah, right.
Please come with me, sir.

(EXCLAIMING lN DISAPPOINTMENT)

Hi there. I'm Mary.

Our massage therapist
called in sick,

so I'll be taking
care of you today.

Okay.

Mmm.

(STAMMERING) Just let
me know if it's hard...

Getting hard.

If I'm rubbing too...
Just let me know.

Let me know.

Mmm.

How's that?

That's perfect.

(GROANING)

Ow.

Okay, sorry.

Hey! Hey!
Yeah.

Ow!

I got to tell you
I'm quite impressed.

Yeah.

I've never met anyone who can
get under Sam's skin the way you did.

But the only thing
I want to know is,

how have you been cheating?

Cheating? You mean, winning.

No, I mean cheating.

It's a statistical
impossibility

for you to have won
as much as you have.

No one can be that lucky.

Luck does not exist.

Karma.

Karma?

Yes.

You see, if I win
a billion dollars one day,

it may be the cause
for one of my descendents

to lose a billion dollars
in 1,000 years.

Things come and they go.

We can never tell when the
results of things done long ago

may come leaking out.

Mmm. So, you're trying to
tell me that karma is the reason

why you're up $1.2 million
in our casino?

It is through karma
that one's destiny unfolds.

I'm sorry. You are no
longer welcome in this casino.

I understand.

Your heart is noble.

You should follow it
more often.

I thank you
for your generosity.

How about a smile?

Bite me.

Oh, is that an offer?

You couldn't get it up
if you wanted to.

Oh, feisty.
Just like your old man.

I like that.

Yeah, yeah, work with me.

That's it. Fight it.
Yeah, good.

Work with me.
Yeah, now flip the hair.

Yes. You're a caged animal.

(LAUGHS)

Good.

(BEEPS)

I think we got it.

You know,
you're very photogenic.

Ever consider modeling?

(WHISPERING)

Ow!

Okay. Okay.

Ow!

Sorry.

Jeez!

Stay still. Stay still.

(GROANING)

Okay.

Okay, that's it!

All done. All done. All done.

Ah! How's it look?

Great.

Unnoticeable.

You.

What, did my ex-wife hire you
to destroy my weekend?

No, I just...
Everybody's sick,

and I'm just...
I'm trying to help out.

Well, you're not.

You want that?

Hey!
Hey.

You told him to leave?
My monk.

Oh, now he's your monk?
Yes, he is my monk.

You can't let him leave here
with over a million of our dollars.

Would you rather he bust the place out?
He's a cheat, Sam.

And Ed will have both
of our heads on a stake

if we don't do something.
He's gone.

I have an idea about
how to get the money back.

Let's just cut our losses
while we're only a million behind.

Mmm-mmm. I can't lose to
this guy and neither can you.

Come on, man up!

Fine, fine, fine.
But it's on you when Ed finds out

the Montecito has been turned
into a damn monastery.

Okay. It's on me.

I don't think this is
a good idea, Ed.

It's the only way, honey.
You ready to do this?

Yeah.

Make the phone call.

CHIPS: Yeah?
Yeah.

Dry Desert Road,
half a mile past the old post office.

8:00. Be alone.

Be careful.

Yes, ma'am.

Bring her home.

I promise.

Let's go, pal.

Boys,

all right,
the meeting's been set.

Junkyard off of
Dry Desert Road, 8:00.

Now, he's expecting me
to come alone so, Mark, Robb,

you need to get there
an hour before us.

Position yourselves
here and here.

I'll keep him out in the open
and you can kill him here.

No!

Oh, shut up.

I thought we needed Deline
to get on the plane.

He'd never let us leave.

But once he's dead,

a mother forced with the
decision of letting us go,

or the death of her child.

Well, there's really
no choice, is there?

(lMITATES AIRPLANE TAKING OFF)

We're going!

Oh. So cute.

ED: We all set?

Yeah. I'm going to be about
100 yards from the warehouse.

I want you to call me the
minute you leave Chips, okay?

Here, take this.

No, I got one.

Grenade?

No, I'm good.

You sure?

Yeah, I'm sure.
Thanks, Rambo.

Hey, listen,
if something happens to me,

you make sure you get her
out of there, you hear me?

Yes, sir.

(PEOPLE CHATTERING)

(FEEDING BACK)

Sorry! Sorry!

That was... That was bad.

(PEOPLE PROTESTING)

(UPBEAT POP MUSIC PLAYING)

Hello.

You're everywhere.

Yeah.

Would you like to dance?

Yes, I would.

Yeah?

Yeah.

Hi.

Hi.

Please do come in, Sam.

I have a proposition
for you.

Oh, propositions can
be very tricky things,

especially when they entice
the heart from the soul.

What is it that
you ask of me?

How would you like
to make one last bet?

But I have been asked
to leave the premises.

What if you didn't
have to leave?

What if you could stay?

Would you make one last bet?

And why would this one bet
be so important to you?

You see, what I do here, my job,

is all I really have,

and I've sacrificed
everything to get here

and I'm afraid
if you have to leave,

that I may be forced
to leave as well.

This job, this work does
not define you as a person.

Your heart, kindness and
passion is what defines you.

You don't know me very well.

Change happens in
immeasurable units,

not in grand gestures.

I'd like to change.

Then you shall.

I think I might need
a little help.

This proposition,

would it ease
some of your pain?

Tell me of this bet of yours.

Ed, my friend,
so nice to see you again.

Open your jacket.

Come on.

Haven't you learned
to trust me by now?

Just open it now.

Okay.

Okay?

Where's my girl?

May l?

Okay.

Jet's fueled up,
ready to go.

You bring Delinda
to the airport,

we'll make the exchange there.

Oh, I don't think that's
going to be necessary.

Don't move! Drop it!

Eddie,

a bye-bye.

Kill him.

(GUN FIRING)

(SCREAMS)

(AIR HISSING)

What the hell are
you doing here?

Did you really think
I wasn't going to come?

Yeah, I did.
Listen, get out of here.

Go get Delinda.
Get her out of there.

DANNY: What about you?
I'll meet you.

(GROANING)

My arm!

(BONE CRACKING)

(SCREAMING)

(PEOPLE CHATTERING)

What?

Are you out of your mind?
One bet, double or nothing?

You'd rather have him walk out
of here with a $1 million of our money?

MIKE: One instead of two. Yes.

Gutless.
Yeah.

Okay, one-time
million-dollar bet.

Obviously, you can
choose black or red.

Of course,
the choice is yours.

Eight.

What?

$1 million on number eight.

Excuse us for a moment. Come here.
Come here. Come here. Are you crazy?

If he hits that number,
we owe him $35 million. Thirty-five!

The odds of him hitting that are 2.63%.

That is not gonna happen.

He's been doing it
all day, Sam.

He's going to lose.
I know it.

What the hell? I can always
get a job at Jack In The Box.

That's right.
You'd look hot in that paper hat.

Okay.

One million on number eight.

No more bets.

Fourteen.

Fourteen. The number is 14.

Fourteen.

Why did you do that?

In order to be happy, Sam,

one must be willing
to let go of everything.

Everything.

Can I see that?

This is a 1943 copper penny.

So?

So, there's only,
like, 40 of these still in existence.

This penny's worth about $80,000.

Why'd you give it
back to him?

Karma.

I truly am just so sorry
about everything.

Oh, it's quite all right.

Actually, I'm impressed at the lengths
you go to to take care of your guests.

That's what we do
here at the Montecito.

And that's precisely
what I'm going to write about.

Write about?

Yeah.

I'm a critic for
Hotel Traveler Magazine.

Oh, no.

Oh, yes.

And despite our few setbacks,

my experience here has
been a phenomenal one.

And you're going
to write that?

Exactly that.

It was a great pleasure
meeting you.

Indeed.

Bye.
Bye.

Hey, need a light?

(GRUNTING)

Okay, l...
