Well, unfortunately,

not good enough.

But you're gonna help

me get better at it.

Let's go.

Gabby, take him home.

Watch him.

Where you going?

Gotta buy some time.

I should go with you.

No, just take him home and

watch him. He's our last chance.

(engine starts)

(guns cocking)

Here we go.

(engine starts)

Yeah.

We've got a problem.

Plaza. The plaza.

Get down.

Clear.

Clear.

Clear.

Clear.

Clear.

Clear.

Clear.

Group head, I got eyes on

five at elevated position.

(gunfire)

F***ing amateurs!

Aaargh!

Go! Go!

Come on, Damon, let's

get out of here.

(Miller) Abort! Abort!

(Baines) Go, go, go, go!

Move!

Come on!

Let's go!

Come on, let's go!

The man is f***ing dead already. Move

now! Come on!

Char--

He's a Russian.

A Russian?

Big in the '80s. Worth

about $1 billion now.

Word is Charlie Wright took

him for about $100 million.

Jesus.

So, he's not gonna stop.

It's okay.

Gabriel, some people say

that, uh, a man in your

position could actually

benefit from my bad fortune.

Who would say that? I mean, that's

ridiculous.

Maybe, but with me gone, it'd

give you a chance to start

clean. No more debts,

no more baggage.

Just like when Father died.

My father got sh*t.

Yeah, but his dying gave

me a chance to start clean.

You take this family and

move on from his mistakes.

You understand?

I f***ed up.

But you didn't f*** up.

Listen to me.

I f***ed up.

It's over for me.

No. We have people everywhere. I'll find

them.

I know you will.

I'm gonna get him back.

I'm gonna go for a walk.

(Michaels) What, you think

I do, mate? One of my guys.

(Damon) Bullshit.

(Charlie) Mary.

Charlie.

Oh...

a drink?

Uh, no, I don't drink...

anymore. Remember?

Ah, si.

Con permiso.

It's not usually this messy.

Is this a...

you been here a while?

Si.

Yeah.

A long time.

Oh, it's nice.

There's something about you.

What, you running

away from something?

Um...

well, it's a...

it's a little bit,

uh, complicated.

What happened?

A lot of things, but, uh,

it's-- it's all over now.

You don't need to...

Would you like to take a shower?

Oh, my God.

That would be a...

You need help.

Yeah, that would be fantastic.

This way. Um, uh, please.

Are you sure this is

where you marked him from?

Yeah.

He was right there.

It's dark out here.

Yeah, but...

Yeah, but you got

the streetlight.

Come on.

Here's some clothes.

Thank you.

They-- they are clean.

Oh, thank-- thank you.

Look, I swear to you,

boss. It was him.

I want you to listen

to me carefully.

Now, I know you respect

me as a human being.

So, if I ever hear any...

No.

I wouldn't do that.

I wouldn't throw you under

the bus. I don't sell out.
