Done.

Pay the man.

Okay. So we know you can fight

and eat, but what else can you do?

The last XXX, he could ski, surf,

do all kinds of stunts.

Well, he's dead now, isn't he?

So things are gonna be

different around here.

Because I don't play with my life.

- I'd rather play with yours.

- We gotta get back to D.C.

We need a place to lay low.

I know the safest place in town.

This is the safest place in town?

Stay put. I'll handle this.

D-Train Stone.

Heard they had you locked down

in the deepest hole...

...this side of the Grand Canyon.

Yeah, they let me out early

for bad behaviour.

- Man, it's been a while, D.

- Where's the boss? I need to talk.

Man, a lot's been changing

since you left, D.

I run the chop shop now.

- Where's Lo?

- Uptown.

Uptown?

Now, this is more like it.

Welcome to the west side, X.

You wanna run in these circles,

you're gonna have to blend.

I don't blend.

The Dino has the torque curve

dropping off around 6400 rpm.

Dial down the injector pulse width

by about 10 percent.

Try 20.

Darius.

You look older.

Nine years of bad food

will do that to you.

Nine years.

Well, correct me if I'm wrong,

but isn't that a few years shy of 20?

Just tell me what you need

so we can do this and be done.

That is why you're here, right?

You need something.

Hot shower, place to crash.

Look around, Darius.

I've got a good life here.

And I'm not gonna let you

wreck it this time.

So...

...what's in it for me?

'67 GTO.

Thousand horsepower, crate motor,

trick suspension.

- What?

- He's right.

- They'll be looking for it.

- Besides, if we're gonna roll...

...we're gonna need something

with a little more muscle.

Something nasty.

I can do nasty.

I know you can.

Bored and stroked,

full roller, 8 litres.

Supercharged with a 25-psi boost,

automated hydraulics...

...high-stall converter with shift kit.

That gonna do the trick?

- You happy?

- I'm good.

I love this girl.

All right, the target is information.

It's on a hard drive

inside my old headquarters, here.

The rest of it is at my house.

- I'll pick that up tonight while...

- Information?

Well, start by giving me some.

- We on the same page?

- You know what I'm talking about.

Last time out, I went down,

and you disappeared.

Look, you aren't the only one

who lost something that day.

When the fire started,

you were busy with the general.

Some of us went in

to see who we could save.

Now, you think this looks bad? You

should've seen it before I got it fixed.

Guess nobody's story

has a happy ending.

Story's not over yet, soldier.

Shavers...

...can you make that

into a personal weapon?

Give me an hour.

- We straight?
