Uh-huh.

Look, whether he was involved

with anything in the...

Now whether or not we can

connect Paul to the Jao Poh...

we know for a fact he had a

relationship with Virote...

who just happens to be the most powerful

boss in the whole damn Thai mafia.

She's my daughter.

Yeah, yeah, yeah,

so what's all this SEC business?

Oh, I'll tell you

all about it tomorrow.

Exhausted for right now.

Yeah, of course.

Here's to my baby bro.

Cheers.

Cheers.

Sawadee ka, Paul,

the ladies are here.

Sawadee ka,

please come in, sit down.

Paul, what's this?

It's a welcome distraction.

You're in Bangkok,

have some fun.

When was the last time

you got laid?

That divorce wasn't cheap.

Don't remind me.

Mm, well that

was three years ago.

Why do you always

have to bring this up?

Hey, we're all travelers

on the road to probation.

Might as well do it with a couple

of hookers and an eight ball.

Ladies.

Sh*t.

Hey, Jules, come have

a drink with us.

We have enough company already.

We were followed tonight.

By who?

I don't know,

it was a black SUV.

All right, tomorrow

you stay with Josh.

Okay. What about you?

I got Derek.

Does this have something

to do with Lek?

I'm not sure, but just keep your

eyes open, all right?

Sure.

Okay.

Good night.

Good night.

Good night, Jules.

Yeah, okay.

Yeah, I think I'm beginning

to really like Bangkok.

Doesn't take long, huh?

Should have got four.

Paul.

Where are you,

you dirty bastard?

Anyone you like?

Yeah, your future ex-wife.

You don't look so good.

Problems at home?

We have to talk.

There a problem in New York.

You are responsible.

Uh, I don't see the connection.

Vicha, we can't reach him,

you have to find him.

Look, I haven't talked

to Vicha in six months.

You don't have a choice.

We know you and Vicha

have been friends long time.

Yeah, we went to college

together. That was 15 years ago.

What about your brother?

What about him?

He worked for Vicha.

What he know?

I can ask him.

Ask him tonight.

Tonight?

What's the rush?

Find Vicha if you want your

club to remain untouched.

What, you're making me responsible

just because Vicha has gone missing?

Just find him.

I don't care how.

How much money

are we talking about?

More than you will ever know.

Look, Lek, I came here today because

I respect the people who own you.

Now you're asking me to find your old business

partner who lives halfway across the world?

That's really not my problem.

You have 48 hours.

How the hell can he not

know where Vicha is?

Yeah, something's not right.

When was the last time

you spoke to him?

I'm calling him now.

You know what we're

holding him for, right?

Vicha was my boss, that was the extent
