(0.00 / 0 votes)You think you're a big shot.
Don't you?
You...
Nope.
You've been nine months here.
You pay nothing.
Well l'm sorry.
Are you stupid?
Well that's all l've got.
Well what are you waitin' for?
That's no way
to start a friendship.
Visitor.
You don't look too good,
Mr. Riggins.
l'm Clive Connelly.
l'm an attach?
at the American Embassy
in Gourna.
l'm here to help you.
Well, l've been here for
almost a year now.
The American government's
an ex-Special Forces
who gets himself...
locked up
for smuggling weapons.
- You f***ed up.
- No sh*t.
Mike, l hope you don't mind
me callin' you Mike...
'cause l understand
you got a problem with authority.
You think you're special.
Laws don't apply to you.
Obviously you're wrong
about that, pal.
So get to your point.
Well...
you're a permanent resident
of the worst f***in' prison
in the world.
You owe a lot of money
to a couple 'a very
dangerous men.
You stay in here much longer
you're gonna be a dead man.
You're a dead man
on the outside, unless...
Unless what?
l got a proposition for you.
One that could
get you outta here...
with a hundred thousand dollars
in your pocket.
We have a complex situation.
One that's a little too
politically delicate...
for us to be directly involved in.
An American citizen
has been kidnapped.
She's been held
for the past eighteen months...
at a compound
near the Black Sea.
By this man. Vlado Karadjov.
Calls himself a warlord.
So why didn't you go
get her yourself?
The f*** wanted money.
The American government
doesn't pay ransoms.
All right.
l'll get you the girl, but,
it's gonna cost you
two hundred thousand.
Fine.
- When do l get my money?
- Ten thousand now.
The rest when you deliver the girl.
Twenty now.
l just happen...
to have an extra ten grand.
Now, my number is on speed dial
on the cell phone.
And this is a list of people
that may be helpful to you.
There could be one problem.
The girl might resist.
We think she's been drugged.
What do you mean?
One of our negotiators
was allowed to talk to her.
He got the impression that she...
was developing sympathy
for her kidnappers.
Which isn't that uncommon
when you've been kept
for this long a period.
Zoran Posternoff.
He runs a nightclub
in the City Center named...
Club Thirty-three. l know.
Where's Zoran?
Riggins.
What the hell
are you doing here?
Business.
Business? Sit down.
Business?
You owe me thirty thousand.
l got ten right here.
- And?
- The rest, if you help me.
- How?
- l need to see Vlado Karadjov.
Why?
He's holding an American
girl hostage.
Take my advice.
Karadjov has powerful allies.
Nobody fucks with him
Nobody.
- So where can l find him?
- Okay.
Wait here.
l'm gonna see
what l can do for you.
Okay?
Hi. You want a drink?
You read my mind.
l'll have raki.
- Make it big.
- Okay.
You're American,
you stay in Gourna?
Well, that depends on you two.
Here's to having a good time.
You are coming with us.
Hold him down.
You still owe me ten.
Remember, ten.
Nice to see you haven't changed.
Get him out of here.
Move.
What are you doing in my city?
l'm here about a woman.
What woman?
Ana Gale.
How much?
What do you mean?
Each time someone
comes with a bigger offer.
Only not big enough.
How much this time?
Nothin'.
Nothing?
Nothing.
lf you come here again,
l am not going
to just shoot you.
