Heat Page #4

Synopsis: Hunters and their prey--Neil and his professional criminal crew hunt to score big money targets (banks, vaults, armored cars) and are, in turn, hunted by Lt. Vincent Hanna and his team of cops in the Robbery/Homicide police division. A botched job puts Hanna onto their trail while they regroup and try to put together one last big 'retirement' score. Neil and Vincent are similar in many ways, including their troubled personal lives. At a crucial moment in his life, Neil disobeys the dictum taught to him long ago by his criminal mentor--'Never have anything in your life that you can't walk out on in thirty seconds flat, if you spot the heat coming around the corner'--as he falls in love. Thus the stage is set for the suspenseful ending....

I gotta get out before the cops show.

They hit three hold-up alarm systems.

Two Telco and a cellular.

But the signals aren't

going anywhere because...

...the night before...

...you cut in...

...and trick out

the alarm system computer...

...to turn itself...

...and the video recorders off...

...20 minutes before you enter.

Architectural, electrical plans?

I got that.

I got the boards already built.

They go into the CPU.

What's the estimate?

You're on.

Congratulations.

Let me give you a little idea

of where my estimates come from.

Nobody knew the merch was yours.

My way, you get 100 percent

from the insurance company...

...take the bonds back from us...

...at 60 cents on the dollar

and make yourself another 40 percent.

The operation doesn't skip a beat.

We all make out.

Sure, you got a deal.

Good, because there's no percentage

if everyone gets upset.

You have your man call me

and we'll set the meet.

Yeah, okay.

Nice talking to you.

You gonna deal with these guys?

Word's on the street

it's okay to steal my stuff.

I'm going to kill these sons of b*tches.

Have Harry bring me the spreadsheets

for Canary Island's Offshore.

That's not really an estimate.

Those are exact figures.

I have a printout of the bank's cash flow

for the past two months.

How'd you get this information?

Just comes to you.

This stuff just flies through the air.

It's just beamed out all over the place.

You just have to grab it.

I know how to grab it.

Okay, here we go.

-I bought it.

-Good.

What did I tell you?

Here.

We're on. Call Van Zant,

collect the money.

How is he?

He's a businessman.

Chris is at my place.

What's wrong?

Husband and wife stuff.

I'll let him sleep it off.

What happened to you?

When will you get some furniture?

When I get around to it.

Charlene's gonna leave me.

Why?

Not enough steaks in the freezer.

With everything we've been doing?

Vegas and the Super Bowl cleaned me out.

When you gonna get an old lady?

When I get around to it.

You got something else on the side?

Nothing regular.

She got something else on the side?

You sure?

Yeah, I'm sure.

I don't know what you're doing.

As Jimmy said, "You want to be

making moves on the street?

"Have no attachments.

Allow nothing to be in your life...

"...that you can't walk out on in 30 seconds

if you spot the heat around the corner."

Remember that?

For me, the sun rises

and sets with her, man.

We take delivery of cash from Van Zant...

...then I drop a deposit on Kelso

for this bank.

Bank? What bank?

What about the platinum thing?

It's ready to fall.

That goes too. Then the bank.

Want some breakfast?

Are you okay?

Yeah, sugar.
