- Hi.

- Please take a seat.

- Thanks.

You can call me Tom. You're mister...

You must forgive me.

English is not my first language.

Okay.

- And you, you're American, yes?

- I am.

I live here now. And you,

you just moved to the area?

I'm expanding my empire.

Tell me, Mr. Wright,

are you a team player?

I-I guess.

Do you want to talk about

the renovations, mister...

Genghis Khan.

Genghis Khan? Is that what you said?

Do you know this man?

Uh, Genghis Khan, yeah.

- I mean, I've heard of him...

- He marched all over the world.

Countries were so afraid of this man,

they would lay down their arms

when they heard of his approach.

Do you know what happened

when they did that?

- No, I don't know.

- Nothing.

Nothing happened.

The Great Khan welcomed them

into his kingdom with open arms.

But those that resisted,

felt his full fury.

He burned the cities, killed the men,

raped their women,

salted their crops.

Okay.

Um...

I'm sorry, I... I think I'm probably

not the right guy for this,

so maybe you should get someone

else for the renovations, okay?

Recently, a group of

men stole from me.

Where I come from,

this would not happen.

But I'm new here, so...

It's not the product that matters,

it's a question of honor.

So now I'm burning cities,

I'm salting crops.

And you have housed my enemy.

Ben Tuttle.

Oh, I see.

- Okay, yes...

- Have you heard of Jack Witkowski?

This man dishonored me.

So, here's my question for you

and your lovely wife, Anna.

Are you team players?

- What do you mean?

- Whose team are you on?

- I'm not on anybody's team.

- If you're not on anybody's team,

you are not on my team.

So, whose team are you on?

Detective Halden, it's Tom Wright.

I need your help.

Babe, it's me. Can you give me...

Where's my money?

Where's my money?

I don't know what

you're talking about.

Me and my brother's money.

Are you an idiot, you f***ing c*nt?

And he died getting it.

So, you can understand

me wanting it back.

Now, where is it?

[WHISPERING] I don't know.

Please.

Please.

Where's the money?

[CHUCKLES]

[GRUNTING]

[GROANING]

So, that's how you want to play.

[CELL PHONE RINGING]

It's fine with me.

[ECHOING]

I didn't want to go this far.

Please...

Please, stop. Please.

Where's my money?

- Please.

- Where's is it?

Please stop.

Where's my money?

[SHOUTING]

F***!

Hm.

[TRAIN ROLLING BY]

[DOOR OPENS]

Anna.

Anna, no.

Welcome home, Mrs. Tommy.

Tom.

[WHISPERING]

The police are coming. Just stall.

I'm okay.

[ANNA WHISPERING] Oh, my God.

That's enough.

Get up.

Up!

This is what Tommy has.

Didn't you know?

When you find a pot of gold,

there's always a monster guarding it.
