is beholden to red mountain.

I know. I know.

I know.

It's bullshit.

But they want him taken out.

Keep reading, pal.

We're wheels up in 10.

How did you do it?

I fell at work.

You know how clumsy I can be.

Are you minding

your grandmother?

Not really.

Christopher.

When are you coming home, mom?

Tomorrow night.

I promise.

Okay. I can't wait

to see you.

Yes?

Hi.

I'm sorry to bother you

so early in the morning.

I'm not even sure

if I have the right address.

I'm looking for

an old friend, lin bisset.

We spent a semester abroad

together at Oxford.

- Yes. That's my daughter.

- What's your name, sir?

My name is Dennis merrick.

I'm from the states.

Is she here? Could i...

Could I speak to her?

Unfortunately, no.

But if you like,

I can tell her you came by.

All right, I appreciate that.

Dennis merrick, okay?

From Oxford?

Okay.

Okay.

Um...

Actually, if it's not too much

of a bother,

I was really excited about

the chance to surprise her.

And do you know

where she might be?

How I could find her?

She's flying home tonight.

Is that lin's son?

We skyped last night.

She hurt her hand,

so she's coming home early.

Who are you, anyway?

I'm Dennis merrick.

From Virginia.

Old friend of your mom's.

Never heard of you before.

Christopher!

It's all right. He's just

watching his mother's back.

I respect that. I got a son

about the same age as you.

What are you, 10 and a half?

Yeah.

What is that?

Is that a Wolverine bag?

Can i... can I see that?

See, I went to the store today

to get one of these for my son,

but all they had was the hulk.

So I didn't get one.

I don't know why...

Because the hulk sucks.

Yeah.

That's right.

Because the hulk sucks.

All right, listen, you two,

thank you so much.

And, you know, I hope we get

to meet again sometime.

Bye-bye.

Identification.

Yeah, Yankees suck.

What can I do for you,

Mr. Conrad?

Yeah, I need

the passenger manifests

for every flight departing

from cape town, South Africa,

inbound for Hong Kong

in the next 30 hours.

Hey, you guys know

an 11-letter word

for "traveling Saint"?

I don't know.

No idea? You didn't

go to Sunday school?

All right.

Thanks, guys.

Safe travels.

Hey, you know an 11-letter word

for "traveling Saint"?

Sorry.

Nothing?

I knew it.

Excuse me, do...

Forgive me, but do you know

an 11-letter word

for "traveling Saint"?

I do a lot of traveling

for work internationally.

I'm trying to learn

a little bit as I go.

Obviously I need to learn more.

You have a nice flight too.

I'm going to need another beer.

Here you go.

Thank you.

No, no, no. F*** off, man.

What'd you say?

I said that's

my girlfriend's seat.
