Two point four million dollars.

Minus a two percent

transaction fee.

They always get you with those hidden

fees, don't they Alex?

Yeah. It's a b*tch.

I hope this isn't a deal breaker.

- We don't have a deal.

- Think about it for one second, alright.

What do you really

have to lose here?

You owe large sums of money to

several banks and institutions.

If the government

catches up with you,

you will probably be

jailed for unpaid taxes.

Not to mention the strong possibility

of doing life in prison

for the murder of a man in

a Las Vegas alley.

That's if the loan sharks don't

catch up to you first.

- Why do you want to kill me?

- I don't want to kill you.

If I wanted to kill you I'd do

it right here, right now.

I want to hunt

you, Sonny.

I'm giving you the opportunity

of a lifetime here.

Look you can take your chances with

me and possibly turn your life around.

Or you can go back to your old life,

what's left of it that is.

Twenty-four hours. Just survive

twenty-four hours, that's it?

- To the second, yeah.

- And I get two point four million?

You got it kid.

- How long a head start?

- Fifteen minutes.

- Alright, I'm in.

- Splendid.

I never had a doubt.

- What is this?

- Paperwork.

It's an agreement which contains all

the rules of the game.

Call it honor among thieves.

All you need to do is autograph that

and we should be ready to go.

Oh, one more rule.

Uh, no police.

If you contact the cops, we might harm

one of your friends or relatives.

Anything else you want

to share with me?

No. That's it. I hate a complicated

game, don't you?

That's your copy. Keep it

with you at all times.

You're going to need

that to collect.

If I were you, I wouldn't waste much

time, the clock is ticking.

Get moving.

Ah, Sonny, don't make such a face.

It's going to be fun.

Yeah, I bet it will.

- See you in twenty-four.

- You bet your life.

Viva

Viva Las Vegas

C'mon. Faster.

C'mon, c'mon.

Go. Go.

Are you out of your mind?

Thank you for visiting

the ToWer Casino.

And remember, What happens in

Vegas, stays in Vegas.

See I told you.

- You're late.

- You're early.

- Come on.

- Whoa, what's the big rush man?

- So where's psycho-chick with the gun?

- I've been asking myself the same.

- How would you like that sir?

- I don't care just make it quick.

- Where you parked?

- Out front.

I gotta first drop off a couple

of prom kids at an after-party.

Don't sweat it.

I'm taking a cab.

Sir, are you interested in upgrading

your Player's Club Membership?

Buddy, don't you see

I'm in a hurry here.

I'm sorry. Just get me

my money, OK.

What's gotten into you?

I've never seen you like this.

I gotta get to the airport ASAP.
