area it's over here
somebody give me a laptop

[Music]
what is that looks like a video recorder
right whoever is responsible tapped into
the cable between the camera and the
security room

pre-tape the undisturbed garage
then play it back for the security
guards
how did you know that there's no special
forces trick
only back when i used it the video unit
weighed more
than my car sergeant
a few words with you and trainer
i'm not going to like this emma

custody
you are not to tell anyone where you are
no contact with the outside
is this really necessary yes it is i
don't intend to lose two more men

hazard pay
lounge around a hotel order room service
watch all the cable tv we can stomach
you ever hear of knocking pedro he's
fine
i want to see him he's in protective
custody
where he's safe i can't tell you any
more than that
why not because that would jeopardize
boudreau's safety

i thought you fell in or something hey
never stomach
hello lieutenant shum well have you made
any progress here charlie we're
investigating hugh's gang oh
so i sit here to the mold in gray and
you block up the wrong tree right
the dragons are the ones who made the
threat a car bomb is not shadow dragons
mo they're going for knives and baseball
bats okay
adam do you mind stepping away from the
window
if you think i'm so off track why don't
you steer me in the right direction
fine let's go from this room look
i don't want to just sit here when
there's some guy out there who's a cop
killer i understand that
and you know what i don't want adam two
dead friends
that's what i don't want
all right if you're so almighty smart
tell me how you'd proceed with this
investigation
i cross-checked the file see if there's
anybody else out there that all three of
us had dealings with
like who how the hell am i supposed to
know that
trainer chase ever mentioned anyone else
that might be after him
yo trainer
hey trent are you okay there's no way
anybody can get to him in there
no windows trainer open up
[Music]
there's
there you go
they don't know looks like it's heart
just stopped
trainer always said the stress of being
a cop would give him a heart attack
and what he smoked those damn cigars he
used to stress
yeah well he used it all right
oh he sure did maybe we should get him a
headstone that says see
or here lies a cop under cardiac arrest
[Laughter]
what's up oh nothing
nothing
what do you got next door
let's go
found it in the sink find a colored
liquid
no senator forensics
find out probably sarin what's that
it's a nerve engine we used in vietnam i
think the army still uses it
what's it do it causes convulsions
paralysis
eventually heart attack yeah but we
found in this bathroom not next door
yeah these sinks must have common pipes
shoot little of it down this drain at
least some of it comes up on the other
side
only takes a little another special
forces method
you guessed it oh why leave the evidence
here
they want us to know its murder
[Music]
they knew we were hiding you here yeah
you think there was a leak
i doubt it they probably followed us
here
where are you going i think i gotta take
care of myself charlie i can't let you
do that
you don't have a choice let kelsey and
chuam take you to another safe house
forgive me charlie but your safe houses
aren't they are if no one knows you're
there
they weren't supposed to know i was here
well we'll just have to take extra
precautions this time
yeah right
all right
[Applause]
thank you
kelsey promise if they kill me you won't
let them put me one of these
[Music]
wait a minute
oh nice tattoo
you guys shadow dragons
no such thing as shadow dragons just a
myth
everything in little saigon's a myth
what do you want
now that your leader is locked up who's
in charge i told you
i know there's nothing to be in charge
of it's too bad
cause i wanna do a little favor for the
dragons
what kind of favor there's this cop
named adam boudreau what about him
he gets hurt everybody with a tattoo
like yours ends up the same way
there are a lot of tattoos like this one
you got to know me
don't need one
i think you do
you sure you want to try anything you
come into our place
you threaten us you are the one who is
trying something
there's a difference between trying and
doing
you're wasting your time i don't
consider saving a friend's life wasted
time
your friend put me where i am today why
would i kill him for that
you tell me but sometimes when a prince
is in line for his throne
he does not mind if someone kills the
king
but you hook it so much as a scratch you
were warned
hello yeah hold on
it's pine yeah tell me i can go home
he did what
let me know if you find him yeah
what did he say my friend grady went off
half-cocked with the shadow dragons he's
out there playing cowboys while i'm in
here playing house
how many times are you gonna do that
what
check your clip
and what about you shoeham you think
these locks are gonna unfasten
themselves
you can never be too careful yeah well
this is not about being careful calm
down adam
yeah what's with you i mean we're just
doing our jobs that's right
both of you you're doing your jobs but
i'm not doing mine right now your job is
to be protected by us
oh yeah i mean look at the two of you
shoeham here checks the same locks every
five minutes you keep checking your clip
every 10.
you tell me you're both not nervous rex
if my gun won't fire it won't be much

we're as calloused as any comp when it
comes to your average bad guy but
whoever's after me is not your average
bad guy

what stories adam the refugees tell
stories about the frogmen like we tell
stories about the boogeyman

there's something about the frogmen
coming out of nowhere
killing someone melting back into the
shadows
the victim is found in the locked room
where no one could get to them no one
heard anything no one saw anything
like that do you know any of the victims
no not personally but you know talk
around little saigon is that they were
all people who didn't pay protection
or didn't pay the gambling debts
to who you ever hear of old kim

[Music]
thanks
[Music]
talk about the lions dude uh kim gave us
where'd you be safe live here

i was told there would only be two
wait outside gritty be i don't think
that's a good idea
wait outside please
gentlemen have a seat please
thank you for seeing me mr willis
it's a good friend to my people that is
the only reason why you are here
and um i appreciate that what do you
want
you know what i want you have become a
target
who holds a gun
you are the law for your people and i
am the law for mine you're a businessman
you're not the law
for many years there's been an
unofficial agreement between
your police and the people of little
saigon
we police ourselves
i'm aware of that then why did you step
over the line
there was a murder i arrested the
murderer
tell me when you are forced to kill a
criminal
in the line of duty are you then
considered
a murderer no
then perhaps the shopkeeper was killed
as punishment for
breaking our laws what law
refusing to pay your protection money
are my fees any different
than your taxes we don't murder tax
evaders
calm down adam and we damn sure don't
use frogmen for the more sophisticated
jobs like killing cops
mr boudreau little saigon
is not your jurisdiction
i just made it my jurisdiction kim
it is for behavior such as this that
perhaps someone
is making an example of you you want to
see an example adam
mr boudreau
i believe it is time
for you to go
let's go come on
[Music]
okay brady what happened i acted like
you
you sho did how can you do business with
her man
because he's the only one who comes
through with a job and a place to live
for my refugees
and he probably makes them pay for the
rest of their life well that's their
choice adam it's not mine and it's not
yours
can you find your own way home why
where we're going you're not going to
want to go where's that
in a manner speaking back to vietnam
this is two henry17 pass me through
lieutenant pine 2017
standby yeah adam you okay
i'm fine i need access to safe house too
you want some men
no just open the safe house and be gone
before i get there
all right that's what you want that's
what i want
what are we going to do cook up a few
frogs
legs
[Applause]
radio check ready got you hear me
yeah i hear you just take your position
and wait
what the hell are you two doing here i
told pine pine didn't send us we heard
you on the radio
what are you here for we're here to back
you up i don't want your backup so
please just get out of here
all right put me in the eye and tell me
you don't want us here
okay yeah
[Music]
patrol said just one shot would be fired
[Music]
did you see where the shot came from
move across the street all right
you take the back i'll go in the front
[Music]
[Music]
so
[Music]
surprise but you're dead there goes the
christmas present
and you're under arrest for attempted
murder let's move it
[Music]
now
[Applause]
good night sergeant
[Music]
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
oh
[Music]
gun beats knife
but glad you could join us all you said
was roof
you didn't know which building
[Music]
i trust you will be more gracious this
visit
we have two of you frogmen in county
jail frogmen
are a legend they do not really exist
that's what the frogmen said
i hope you did not come to talk about
imaginary
characters no i came here to talk about
you
[Laughter]
a worthy subject i don't have enough to
put you behind bars yet
but i'll keep working on it you'll be
working on it
for the rest of your short life
that's the other thing you want the
police to stay out of little saigon
correct
of course that's too bad
you see my lieutenant plans to triple
the shift here
but only if one of your people so much
as scratches one of our cops
including me i do not control
all of my people and you better
because otherwise little saigon will
look like a police convention do you
understand me
i think he's speechless b
no he's just thinking about what 10 cops
on every street corner
would do this business
demo get out get out
no
oh
there will be another time
[Applause]
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
[Applause]

shoot little of it down this drain at
least some of it comes up on the other
side

forces method

care of myself charlie i can't let you

chuam take you to another safe house
forgive me charlie but your safe houses

myth
everything in little saigon's a myth
what do you want
now that your leader is locked up who's
in charge i told you

cause i wanna do a little favor for the
dragons

i think you do
you sure you want to try anything you
come into our place
you threaten us you are the one who is
trying something
there's a difference between trying and
doing
you're wasting your time i don't
consider saving a friend's life wasted
time
your friend put me where i am today why
would i kill him for that
you tell me but sometimes when a prince
is in line for his throne
he does not mind if someone kills the
king
but you hook it so much as a scratch you
were warned
hello yeah hold on
it's pine yeah tell me i can go home
he did what

what stories adam the refugees tell
stories about the frogmen like we tell
stories about the boogeyman

there's something about the frogmen
coming out of nowhere
killing someone melting back into the
shadows
the victim is found in the locked room
where no one could get to them no one
heard anything no one saw anything
like that do you know any of the victims
no not personally but you know talk
around little saigon is that they were
all people who didn't pay protection
or didn't pay the gambling debts
to who you ever hear of old kim
[Applause]

encyclopedia on him

[Music]
talk about the lions dude uh kim gave us

wait outside gritty be i don't think
that's a good idea
wait outside please
gentlemen have a seat please
thank you for seeing me mr willis
it's a good friend to my people that is
the only reason why you are here
and um i appreciate that what do you
want
you know what i want you have become a
target
who holds a gun
you are the law for your people and i
am the law for mine you're a businessman
you're not the law
for many years there's been an
unofficial agreement between
your police and the people of little
saigon
we police ourselves
i'm aware of that then why did you step
over the line
there was a murder i arrested the
murderer
tell me when you are forced to kill a
criminal
in the line of duty are you then
considered
a murderer no
then perhaps the shopkeeper was killed
as punishment for
breaking our laws what law
refusing to pay your protection money
are my fees any different
than your taxes we don't murder tax
evaders
calm down adam and we damn sure don't
use frogmen for the more sophisticated
jobs like killing cops
mr boudreau little saigon
is not your jurisdiction
i just made it my jurisdiction kim
it is for behavior such as this that
perhaps someone
is making an example of you you want to
see an example adam
mr boudreau
i believe it is time
for you to go
let's go come on
[Music]
okay brady what happened i acted like
you
you sho did how can you do business with
her man
because he's the only one who comes
through with a job and a place to live
for my refugees
and he probably makes them pay for the
rest of their life well that's their
choice adam it's not mine and it's not
yours
can you find your own way home why
where we're going you're not going to
want to go where's that
in a manner speaking back to vietnam
this is two henry17 pass me through
lieutenant pine 2017
standby yeah adam you okay
i'm fine i need access to safe house too
you want some men
no just open the safe house and be gone
before i get there
all right that's what you want that's
what i want
what are we going to do cook up a few
frogs
legs
[Applause]
radio check ready got you hear me
yeah i hear you just take your position
and wait
what the hell are you two doing here i
told pine pine didn't send us we heard
you on the radio
what are you here for we're here to back
you up i don't want your backup so
please just get out of here
all right put me in the eye and tell me
you don't want us here
okay yeah
[Music]
patrol said just one shot would be fired
[Music]
did you see where the shot came from
move across the street all right
you take the back i'll go in the front
[Music]
[Music]
so
[Music]
surprise but you're dead there goes the
christmas present
and you're under arrest for attempted
murder let's move it
[Music]
now
[Applause]
good night sergeant
[Music]
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
oh
[Music]
gun beats knife
but glad you could join us all you said
was roof
you didn't know which building
[Music]
i trust you will be more gracious this
visit
we have two of you frogmen in county
jail frogmen
are a legend they do not really exist
that's what the frogmen said
i hope you did not come to talk about
imaginary
characters no i came here to talk about
you
[Laughter]
a worthy subject i don't have enough to
put you behind bars yet
but i'll keep working on it you'll be
working on it
for the rest of your short life
that's the other thing you want the
police to stay out of little saigon
correct
of course that's too bad
you see my lieutenant plans to triple
the shift here
but only if one of your people so much
as scratches one of our cops
including me i do not control
all of my people and you better
because otherwise little saigon will
look like a police convention do you
understand me
i think he's speechless b
no he's just thinking about what 10 cops
on every street corner
would do this business
demo get out get out
no
oh
there will be another time
[Applause]
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
you
