Max Payne Page #5

Synopsis: Three years ago, NYPD detective Max Payne's wife and baby were murdered. Max gets himself transferred to the cold case office where he can continue searching for the killer who got away. He's a loner, but two people reach out to him during a fateful week: Alex, his ex-partner who may have found a clue, and BB, the security chief at the pharmaceutical company where Max's wife worked. Meanwhile, bodies are piling up, some as a result of a drug on the street that is highly addictive and, for many who take it, brings hideous hallucinations. When one of the bodies is a woman Payne was the last to see alive, her sister comes looking for him armed to the teeth; Max must move fast.

What would they mean? The wings?

He mocks them.

And what does that mean?

The devil is building his army.

Yeah?

Does this devil have a name?

Vinnie.

The one you are looking for is Lupino.

A place called Ragnarock.

It's an old club, east side.

Listen.

You still got a thing with the cops, right?

See if they learn anything about a Detective Max Payne.

Max Payne?

- What?

- Max Payne, he's been hunting.

Three years of kicking down doors.

He's looking for something that god wants to stay hidden.

And that's what makes him even more dangerous.

Mona.

Stay away from Max Payne.

You don't wanna be near him when judgment day comes.

They took her upon their wings.

Their wings are golden, the feathers only look black.

That's a Norse valkyrie. A soldier's angel.

She was such a bright light in this company.

- What is it? What's going on?

- Coffee?

It isn't that I've been missing something.

- There's something they been missing.

- So?

BB, what do you mean "so"?

And what would this company want with her art papers?

- I don't know.

- Well, who then?

Our old supervisor, what is his name?

Max.

- Max, this is enough.

- What is his name?

Colvin. John Colvin. Is he still around?

- Hold on, Max!

- BB.

Is he still working for the company?

Jason Colvin.

- The guy's name is Jason.

- Thank you.

This is Detective Bravura.

Detective, I need to speak with you about Max.

Right away, please. It's urgent.

Detective, thanks for seeing me in my office.

I need to explain what happened to Max.

The file can't tell you everything.

Unless you think that's all you need to know about Max.

Can't tell you how beautiful Michelle was.

How happy they were together.

Can't tell you how the baby lokked just like her.

It started out as a robbery.

That day, the perps were out for something more.

Michelle?

Michelle?

Michelle?

Michelle?

It's OK. They're angels now.

He was maybe ten minutes too late.

That's all.

Ten minutes.

We looked everywhere for the third guy.

But there was nothing to go on.

Max transferred to Cold Case.

Working leads that went nowhere.

Of course not.

Understand!

This is my old partner's kid.

He's family.

You gotta help him here.

You should hear the kind of things Max is saying. None of it makes any sense.

He has gotten in his head that someone here at the company is responsible.

I'm worried he's gonna

get into another situation before I can convince him to come in.

- So you really think he's...

- I think you need to find him.

What is it, Jason?

Is this a threat?

No.

No.

I just thought you should be aware.

Just take care of it, Jason.

There is someone in your office.

It's a detective.

This your daughter?
