The Equalizer Page #3

Synopsis: In The Equalizer, Denzel Washington plays McCall, a man who believes he has put his mysterious past behind him and dedicated himself to beginning a new, quiet life. But when McCall meets Teri (Chloë Grace Moretz), a young girl under the control of ultra-violent Russian gangsters, he can't stand idly by - he has to help her. Armed with hidden skills that allow him to serve vengeance against anyone who would brutalize the helpless, McCall comes out of his self-imposed retirement and finds his desire for justice reawakened. If someone has a problem, if the odds are stacked against them, if they have nowhere else to turn, McCall will help. He is The Equalizer.

she thought her life

could be hers one day.

Slavi reminded her it never would be.

He said he'd cut her throat

next time.

He said a whore who fucks and can't

talk might be worth twice as much.

You and I know what I really am.

It's something in your eyes.

Change your world.

Anything you wanna be.

He said he'd cut her throat next time.

Why is that piece

of sh*t in my parking space?

Hi, Slavi.

Are they upstairs?

Yes.

Tevi. You collect

from that f***, Dmitri?

Yes.

He asked for forgiveness.

Forgiveness?

I told him.

What am I, Jesus Christ?

Ha-ha-ha.

You lost, dedushka?

- How did he get up here?

- I don't know.

Should I get rid of him?

No.

I'm here for that girl.

You gave me that

a couple of nights ago.

We give out lots of cards.

You still can get it up, dedushka?

I'm here about a certain girl.

She got beat up pretty bad.

I'm thinking that maybe

you have wrong address, dedushka.

This girl, she have name?

Her name's Alina.

Alina?

Mm-mm.

Ah...

No, it doesn't ring a bell.

But whoever she is, I'm sure she

must know how to suck the cock.

Uh... Okay. Um...

Look, I understand.

These girls that you, uh...

That you represent.

I understand it's like

they're an investment, so, urn...

I can give you $9800.

It's cash.

You're wanting to give me $9000?

Ninety-eight hundred. Cash.

For what?

Her freedom.

Uh-huh. Heh, heh.

Can you believe this guy?

This guy gonna give me

$9000 for one single piece of p*ssy.

Ah, must be Ferrari p*ssy.

You f***ing Americans think

you can come into my place

and buy whatever you want.

Beautiful Russian girls, no problem,

just throw down this bullshit money.

You f***ing insult me.

Ha-ha-ha.

I'm just f***ing with you, man.

But you got very big balls

coming in here. I like that.

So, $9000

for the troublemaker.

One month.

That's it.

You think

this is one-time payment?

I make this off this girl

in two weeks.

That girl is still child.

I still can sell her as virgin, huh?

This makes prime earner

for good while.

Take your f***ing money and go back to

your house and jerk off 9800 times.

Then come crawling back here

and talk to me, huh?

She'll be used up by then

for sure.

Maybe then I will let you have her

for nothing. Hm?

Okay.

You're okay, dedushka?

Bye-bye.

You know amerikantsy.

You forget something?

Sixteen seconds.

One one-thousand,

two one-thousand,

three one-thousand.

Eight one-thousand.

Understand?

Twenty-eight minus 9, 19.

Nineteen.

Your heart's beating three times

the normal rate.

Because you're losing so much blood.

About 30 seconds,

your body's gonna shut down

and you're gonna suffocate.

Alina, the girl you beat half to death,
