## Transcript

No,
please, help me. No.
Hey, no, please. Please, all right. I've
got valuable information. I've got
information. I've got
>> [panting]
>> Now, listen to me, all right? Whatever
you think I've done, whatever I've
taken, I'll pay it back. I'll pay so
much more. You know, money's not a
problem to me, yeah?
I've got those two little girls.
That's right.
>> [panting]
>> It's not my fault.
Yeah?
I don't want your gun, you ape.
Unless you want to sit in one of these
chairs. Take this mine.
Now, get that rat [ __ ] boy to do it. And
clean this place up.
Are you mute? Who were they?
You have quite the exceptional
opportunity to beg.
I suggest you take it. Who
were they?
Do you want to die,
little man?
They were scum.
Do you know what they did?
I know.
Enough.
Most men are cowards.
Enough to kill. Hey, can you focus?
This isn't about them. It's about you.
Let me be clear.
You are playing with borrowed time. I do
not benefit from this.
All right.
Who were they?
I don't know.
>> [clears throat]
>> Then why are I didn't shoot them.
You have to know a man before you kill
him. It's best to know what you take.
I take what this filth throw away.
Seems they have some
buyer's remorse.
You disapprove?
Is there a noble way of killing a man?
You're the one who tells the stories.
Tell stories? Mhm.
You rats all think yourselves unique.
You don't know anything about me.
I know enough.
I know you have to take them yourself.
From prisoner to partner.
Your father would be ashamed.
What?
What's left of the allies he made?
The empire fell.
You didn't know my father.
His weakness [clears throat] is why his
allies were able to walk all over this
organization.
And your method is so much more
effective.
How long you've been pouring your own
drinks?
Your weakness
is your lack of patience.
You're a fool.
And it won't be long
before you no longer draw
breath.
If you're so well informed, how come I'm
sitting here and you're sitting there?
This was inevitable. Inevitable.
You have nowhere better to be?
You have no wife, kids?
Any other kind of inevitabilities? What
kind of a man wouldn't?
You know, you're just the kind of man
I'm looking for in this organization.
A man of loyalty.
You loyal? Never wonder how you're going
to go.
Foe,
friend,
family.
Not just a rat, but a snake in the
grass.
If you want to live, you better give me
something. You achieve nothing dying in
this hole.
Tell me
who you work for.
What kind of ransom I could get for you.
Who knows, I could pull some strings.
I can't think of anything more degrading
working for you.
Maybe being you.
Biting again.
You know,
I had a Rottweiler once.
Vicious little bastard.
My nephews loved him.
And he loved them back.
I could see the potential in that
piece of [ __ ] when he would stare out at
the horizon.
No matter how hard he came at you.
He'd be
growling snapping.
But
he loved food.
And fetch and [ __ ] about.
And I figured
eventually he would calm down with age,
some perspective.
Until he bit me.
And he bit hard.
I gave him one more horizon before the
end.
I figured if he knew what was coming,
he'd behave better than a bloody border
collie.
Maybe [snorts] took that last horizon as
a blessing.
Excuse me.
Do you ever wonder how little time you
have left?
>> wonder how little time you don't? How
little time does an animal have?
Rat.
Snake.
Dog.
Are you just getting more comfortable
with killing me?
Do I look uncomfortable to you? You look
tired.
Tired of the world you've made.
And the debt it's collecting.
You know, I'm not unreal.
I'm not unraceable.
So,
I'll let you go
if you tell me who you work for.
You'll make them soon enough.
Why did you take this job?
For Snitch.
Ah,
the gas.
Snitch deserved it.
>> And what did the parish deserve? That
gas killed on exposure. They died well,
all things considered.
Besides,
the city now has a real god to pray to.
The reward was far too tempting. Ah, for
all the talk, you're still a money man
at heart.
How much of that cash you willing to
part with to save your own skin? I don't
need saving. No.
You are very close to dead, my friend.
I'm the only thing standing in the way.
So,
stop begging.
Start acting like a man before I slit
your [ __ ] throat.
Why didn't you use your subordinate's
gun?
You are joking.
My gun has taken more people than the
plague. It ain't about to stop now.
Besides, it was my father's.
Your father's legacy.
And
me and you.
>> [snorts]
>> I think I'll let you go.
You're a smart guy.
Resourceful.
Strong.
I feel like I'm letting myself live.
I understand.
Hey,
you didn't flinch when the gun jammed.
Why?
I don't have time.
Inevitable.
Oh god.
No.
