The Contract Page #2

---

No, he's in the hospital.

Somebody hit

the Homeland Security button.

The FBl has gotten all excited.

The other agencies are lining up

behind us.

This guy is a hot potato.

Is he?

Just about everyone seems

to ring alarm bells these days.

All right. Let me know

when he gets here.

Sure.

See you later.

Yes.

Miles.

What have you got? Is it him?

Yes. It's definitely Carden.

FBl liaison officer

just came by to tell me.

I don't want this going any further.

No, sir.

It won't get out of hand.

I'm on top of it.

DAVIS:

How do you know that?

He called me.

DAVIS:
He called you?

How did he manage that?

Ask him later.

We're gonna have to improvise.

Okay, rule one.

We don't go back

for him.

We leave him down.

That's not rule one.

Same for any of us.

What are you talking about?

The old man got caught,

that's his problem.

This is Frank's command. We've

been with him a long time.

Yeah, everybody but you.

Ever hear of loyalty?

Yeah, I read about it

in a book once. Look,

I'm not getting paid

to save his ass.

You're not getting paid

unless we save his ass.

You know that offshore account?

Only Frank can access it.

No Frank,

no money.

Now, you see, that argument

appeals to my sentimental side.

Local celebrities and officials

are reported to be lobbying for seats

at a dinner for the president,

to be held following

his upcoming speech

at Woodburn College.

Morning.

Morning.

Death has been reported

of a well-known local personality,

Lydel Hammond, Jr.,

in what appears to be

a hit-and-run accident

outside the Rosemont Apartments.

Reporter Melanie Stewart...

We're really doing this, aren't we?

No, I figured we'd just wake up,

make breakfast and go back to bed.

MELANIE Lydel Hammond, Jr. is the

son of the reclusive billionaire.

Hammond Sr. is expected to make

a rare public appearance

at the funeral of his son

in a few days.

That's the same Hammond

as the street, right?

Yeah.

And the stadium.

Yep.

- Hammond Sr., a contributor

to the current administration,

has caused an embarrassment

recently, by his alleged support

of direct action, violence,

against doctors and scientists

involved in stem-cell research.

Sorry about the cuffs, Frank.

Rules, you know?

Yeah, sure.

Can't be too careful, can we?

STANFIELD:
So what are you

doing around here, Frank?

Nice part of the country.

I like the scenery.

Well, take a good, long look.

Might be your last chance.

CHRIS:

So the team lost, huh?

Yeah.

Again.

Again.

You know, we showed up. We tried.

That's what important, isn't it, Chris?

You ever wonder

about your coaching ability?

No, that's not

what I'm wondering about.
