ln my office,

nO.

l'll call you.

Oh.

Love or money, Cap'n?

What a choice.

Oh, sh*t!

Are-- are you--

Me Hay.

l am so sorry.

At least

you noticed this!

Yeah, almost blew my hem

payday on a mix-up, huh?

Uh, sorry.

Let me finish my shopping,

all right?

Yeah.

Those pants...

make you look a bit fat,

don't you think?

Get out.

Get out!

Mr. Hogan?

l'm Miss Moi's butler.

Pleased to meet you.

Miss Moi is waiting

for you in the garden.

You have

a beautiful garden.

Very unique style to it.

l inherited

my father's style.

Western on our side,

but Eastern at its core.

A reflection of

a changing world.

Do you know what

l just wrote?

lt's a famous Chinese poem

about something we all need.

May l?

Wow.

l had no idea.

Poetry is one of

my true appreciations.

But this is in Chinese.

English, Asian,

African--

l love them all.

You're full

of surprises.

You don't know

the half of it.

Hmm, an antique fan.

Remarkable.

Still looks like new.

lt's made of rare metal.

Flexible, but it's

still as strong.

Sharp as a butcher's

knife, l bet.

l chop meat

with it sometimes.

Ah, ''Romeo and Juliet.''

My favorite.

''lt's the East,

and Juliet is the sun.

Arise, fair sun,

to kill the envious moon...

The brightness of her cheeks

would shame those stars.

See how she rests her cheek

upon her hand.

Oh, that l could be a glove

upon the hand,

that l might touch

that cheek.''

''So Romeo would,

were he not Romeo called,

retain that clear

perfection which he owes.''

Can l ask you something?

Of course.

All these bodyguards--

are they really necessary?

This is reality.

Not like in the books.

Are you in some sort

of trouble?

Do you understand the price

of getting to the top?

l knew people who

got kidnapped and killed.

Someone may be

after me too.

You okay?

We should stick to

the business at hand.

You went inside

her house.

What happened?

You did it?

Just a scouting mission.

Why not?

Waiting for what?

The butler was there.

No witnesses, remember?

You can't even

fool a butler?

Her bodyguards were

everywhere as well.

Then find other ways.

l will.

But first l have

a question for you.

Shoot.

Did she really

kill your parents?

l mean, she doesn't

seem the type.

What are you saying?

Me the vicious type?

l'm not saying that.

Your type--

read books,

study arts.

Almost forgot--

kill people

for a living.

Easy.

Are you okay?

What did l run over?

One of those days,

huh?

Well, l got a spare.

- Need some help?

- No, it's my job.

My boss is inside.

l better hurry.

What do you think

you're doing?

Hey, collateral damage

means no paycheck.

- Who's gonna know?

- l will.

You want to get me
