Gun Shy Page #4

and they need a million dollars!

Well, I don't need John.

I wouldn't even wake him up

for a million dollars.

That's what I said!

Listen, this has to stay

between the three of us, okay?

Or they say they'll kill her.

I need the money,

like, right now!

Is that understood?

Can you handle it?

- I'm on it. I'm on it.

- And tell John

to f*** off for never

answering my calls anymore.

Okay, tell John you need a million

dollars for his kidnapped wife,

keep it a secret,

and to f*** off. Got it.

Bye. Bye. Yeah, yeah.

That's it.

Have you heard of the Gatos?

Doesn't that mean cats?

It does. In Chile,

that's what we call our pirates.

They are former fisherman who were

crowded out by big companies.

You see, in this country,

a few wealthy people like you,

they own and control everything,

even the licenses

of who can fish.

That is why this village

that we're in now,

once thriving with the life

and laughter of families,

now lies empty.

Now the Gatos rob the big boats

to get their fish back.

What I do have is my crew,

and what I do not have

is a ship.

So, you see, that's why

you're here, unfortunately.

I, too, like the Gatos,

had to make the choice

between starving

and this dangerous life you see.

Listen, when I was modeling, I had

to skip meals all the time, too.

Okay, here's the deal.

Some foreigners

have been kidnapped

- in cerro la cam...

- Campana.

But one of them is a celebrity.

Oh! What? What? What?

A movie star?

- Who is it?

- Okay, listen.

We've gotta keep this on the qt.

Not even the legal attach finds out

about it until I've checked it out.

Everything is on qt. Got it.

Where is qt?

You don't know what qt means?

Mm-mmm.

I learn English

at night school, sir.

- I almost did ceramics.

- It means quiet.

Mm-mmm. Ceramics means pots.

No, qt means quiet.

Oh. I see.

It's almost onomatopoeic?

You know onomatopoeic,

but you don't know qt?

I did not set the curriculum.

Okay, listen. This could be a

straightforward case of kidnapping,

or it could be something

a little more sinister,

like terrorist activity.

Terrorists? Here?

It would be

to my advantage if it were.

It would help me get

a position in Washington.

Do you have a shower here?

I'd love to clean up.

I will be just outside the door.

How you getting on in there?

I'm fine, thanks!

- Ooh!

Finished showering, I see.

How long exactly

have you guys been pirates?

Almost nine hours.

Are you the concierge?

That's the lighter

that doesn't work.

No, Mr. Turk,

I am federal agent Harding.

Enry.

No, Harding. Ben Harding.

I am Enry.

- Oh, I thought it was Turk.

- Turk Enry.

- Oh.

- Please, take a seat.

Uh, listen, Mr. Enry,
