Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai Page #2
(Sonny) untraceable
f***in' button man.
OK, OK. Er, let's see...
I don't pay him by the job.
He'll only work if I pay once a
year on the first day of autumn.
First day of autumn, I settle up
for that past year, see?
The first day of autumn...
OK, OK.
Let's skip that part.
Where does he live?
F***ed if I know.
That's the next strange thing.
I can't call him. He contacts me
only through a bird.
Since I first started
contracting stuff out to him,
the bird comes every single day.
Hold it, hold it, hold it.
Did you say he contacts you
through a f***ing bird?
Did I just hear that?
What particular
species...of bird?
It's a pigeon. It must be
Passenger pigeon!
They've been extinct since 1914!
Am I f***ing dreaming here
or what?
OK, Louie, forget about
the bird. Let me ask you this.
Tell me, what does
this mysterious guy look like?
He's a big guy.
A big black guy.
- He's what?
- He said the guy's a n*gger!
I saw a guy, this guy.
'He was a kid
in a bad situation.'
(Man) Stupid-ass
motherf***er!
Get his ass up here!
You motherf***er!
What's the problem here?
'So l...
straightened things out.'
this big guy comes to my door.
This black guy, got a f***ing
pigeon on his shoulder.
but he said he owed me.
I only saw him once after that
and we made this arrangement.
That's very touching, Louie.
Let me just backtrack
for a second.
The bird comes to your house
every day. Did he come today?
Yes, the bird
was there this morning.
(Sonny) Did he have a message?
The usual
"mission accomplished" message.
Uh-huh. And did you
send a message back?
No.
You'd called me in, so I figured
it was best to leave it alone.
Did you follow this bird?
Put a bug on it?
Anything like that?
No, I never had a reason
to do anything like that.
I realise the arrangement I made
with this guy is pretty weird,
but he's always
shown me complete respect.
A whole new century
is coming,
and Mr Vargo wants
every member of this family
to make it a priority
to erase this weirdo.
This guy is a professional.
Going after him
could be dangerous.
Handsome Frank was one of us,
so we're gonna peel
this n*gger's cap back.
Better him than you, right?
Now, what the f***
is his name?
- Ghost Dog.
- What?
- Ghost Dog.
- Ghost Dog?
- He said Ghost Dog!
gangster type guys,
they all got names like that.
- (Mr Vargo) Is that true?
- He means like the rappers.
(Sonny) The rappers got names
Ice Cube, Q-Tip, Method Man.
