Arsenal Page #4

Synopsis: A powerful action thriller, ARSENAL tells the intertwining stories of the Lindel brothers, Mikey (Johnathon Schaech) and JP (Adrian Grenier), who had only each other to rely on growing up. As adults, JP found success as the owner of a construction company, while Mikey became a small-time mobster, mired in a life of petty crime. When Mikey is kidnapped and held for a ransom by ruthless crime boss Eddie King (Nicolas Cage), JP turns to the brothers' old pal Sal (John Cusack), a plain clothes detective for help. In order to rescue his brother, JP must risk everything and unleash his vengeance against King's relentless army of gangsters.

You took my ten G's

and you bought some coke,

and you wanted to flip it?

What do you want me to say?

I loaned you that money

so you could pay for rent.

You said Alexis needed braces.

Well, the girl,

she needs braces.

She needs a lot of

things that I can't afford.

That's why I took the ten,

and I tried to turn it into 20.

So you're a drug dealer now?

It doesn't matter.

It's all gone.

- What do you mean it's gone...

- I got jacked.

I'm out all ten.

Are you f***ing kidding me?

Mikey, you...

you have a daughter.

I'm a f*** up, man.

I'm a f*** up as a father.

I f***ed up with the Marines.

I'm not perfect like you.

You perfect son of a b*tch.

Perfect business, perfect f***ing wife.

Perfect f***ing life.

You can't blame me

for your behavior.

You can't blame the Marines

for your bad conduct discharge.

- You can't...

- Just shut up about that.

I'll never ask

for money again, okay?

F*** it.

Gonna buy me a shot'?

No.

Hey, look who it is.

If it isn't little Michael.

Mikey's in town. Have a seat, kid.

Sit down, let's talk

for old times sake.

So what's new?

Where you working at these days?

I'm between jobs.

Sounds like me talking to the IRS.

What's it been,

six, maybe eight years?

Didn't you owe me some money?

Didn't you though?

Yeah, you did owe me some money.

You were supposed to come through

on something for me

right around the time you quit.

I figure we're even.

Oh, you think we're even, you and I?

What'd you ever do for me?

I did everything for you.

You want me to make lists?

I got you a job.

I got you laid when you were 14.

Gave me my first line at 15,

that was a great habit.

Look at you,

you turned out all right.

So, let's talk about that brother

of yours, you know, I read about him.

Mister Entrepreneur,

the blue collar American dream.

"I make money,

I build jobs for my community,

blah, blah, blah..."

how's he doing?

He's good.

How come you guys

aren't still close?

What do you mean close?

We... we're brothers.

Well, that's funny because

you were practically like a father

to that kid,

and he hasn't ever

done sh*t for you.

Well, it doesn't look like

he's done sh*t for you.

Which brings me to my point.

You know, Mikey,

I think I know of a way where

we can both earn

what we deserve.

And I'm talking

six figures each.

Six figures?

I thought you'd never show up.

Hello.

Jamie Lindell?

- Yeah.

- You have four days

to deliver $350,000 cash,

or your brother dies.

Who is this?

Mikey? Hello?

Get the cash together.

We'll be in touch.

- Who is this? ls this a joke?

- No police.

Four days.

Get the money.

Wait, who is this?

Hello!

JP?

Mikey, it's me, JP.
