Some people might think that I

don't have a conscience.

That it's all about the money,

but that's never been true.

Before I do a job, I always ask why.

You have to keep a sense of balance.

It's a terrible thing what I do,

and it's easy to forget that.

To think that one more doesn't

make any difference...

but it does.

And a day it doesn't is the day

you've lost your soul.

You stepped off the ledge, into an abyss.

Well, then It's only a matter of time

to hit the ground,

and hit against a very hard floor.

So there's got to be a reason.

There's consequences.

For every reaction has an opposite

and equal reaction.

The Universe does not make any exceptions.

So try to make sure you're pushing

in the right direction,

or the Universe will push back.

I'm not saying that what I'm doing is right.

I'll leave that argument to the philosophers.

I only know that some people...

they just need killing.

Excuse me. Mr. Vogel?

She's first appointment this morning.

Ah! Is it the Dutch thing?

Is there anything you'd like?

Oh. Yes, same as usual, um...

- What did that f***er do?

- A few minutes. He's on his way.

Good. I've got my daughter visiting.

I don't like this kind of sh*t

happening when she's around.

I mean, we could be all nice and... [...],

or maybe we gonna have to... play bad.

Either way - let's make a point,

if he's gonna make one.

It's one man.

That depends on a man, doesn't it?

I mean, eh...

Steiner, this meeting is a courtesy.

If he doesn't check out...

I want you to kill that f***er

slowly... painfully. Okay?

And I want this motherf***er found.

I want to make it a point.

If he's gonna make a point, then I'm

gonna make the goddamn point.

I don't want any misunderstandings

with his employer,

okay?

- Dad?

- Hey!

Oh, you look great!

- Pa, thanks, do you like it?

- Yeah, I love the dress.

- Oh, you smell great!

- Thank you. Are you ready for lunch?

Honey, I've been ready for lunch

for hours now.

Damn. Don't I look ready? Hm?

- Good morning, Steiner.

- Hello, Ma'am.

- OK, let's go.

- I've got a...

one dull thing I got to take care of now.

I'll catch you. Why don't you and, um...

your boyfriend go have a drink? I mean...

I'll pay for that, I promise. Okay?

Dad.

- Okay, five minutes.

- Four, four and a half minutes.

Right, I've got some news to tell you,

but at lunch when Nick gets there, okay?

You got it.

- Cool.

- How about Steiner? What do you think?

He a little scary.

I think I'll go all way by myself, yeah?

Don't tell him that. Hell ask for reward.

Dad.

- Right, see you in five minutes, yeah?

- See you baby. Right.

You're so popular.

He's coming in now.

Morning.

[...]

Careful, might be loaded.

Sit down.

I'll stand, if you don't mind,

Oh, man, I don't give a f***

what 'you'd rather'. Just sit.

Listen, I'm seeing you today because, um...

because your employer asked me

to indulge him. So I am.

I already gave him the answered on this.

And the answer is no.

So, unless you've got something, some kind of

business you'd like to discuss with me...

just... sorry, this got to be

a very short meeting.

- You got a name? Mister...

- Bradley.

Mister Bradley.

Look, Bradley, I'm not a...

I'm not a very patient man, and...

And as the saying goes, if I got to pull off your teeth

to get some answers... you understand me, right?

Well, I have to do what I got to do, and, uh...

Let me just get straight to the f***ing point.

Why the f*** are you here?

You know why I'm here.

The disc.

The disk that was inconveniently mislaid

and is now in your possession.

- Okay...

- It doesn't belong to you.

- I will not sell it to you.

- That's not yours to sell.

- Hm?

- It's not yours to sell.

It's my safe.

It's my house - that makes it mine.

No, it doesnt.

And that's why I'm here - to give you

an opportunity to return it.

To return it?

Why? 'cause you came in all dressed up

and asked so nicely?

I'm sorry, son, but this meeting is over.

I have asked nicely.

I'm not gonna do it again.

Believe me, it's in your best interests,

just hand it over to me now.

Jesus, Bradley, you came in here

and you asked me - nicely...

Bend over, and put it up your ass -

I'd still tell you 'No'. Oh, come on, man!

Look, Bradley, you didn't have to get, um...

physical here.

The fact remains that the disk is in my safe.

If you kill me, you'll have to have a small bomb

to open that f***ing safe.

I don't see one on you, Bradley. See, you gonna

have to kill me, because I'm not gonna open it.

So it looks like we are at a crossroads here.

I'm not gonna kill just you.

Bradley, yes, [actually], I do know of you,

and I know you won't do it.

Oh, sure, you kill me...

you ain't gonna go for the girl.

Not a guy like you.

I know that.

You full o'sh*t, be bluffing.

Are you willing to take bet chance

with your daughter's life?

Then you gonna die, not knowing

if that can be paid off.

Listen, man, I don't believe you. But, um...

No, man, that's not one gamble I'm willing to take.

You don't even know what the f***'s

on that disk, do you?

So, now I...

What I am gonna say, I presume

you gotta just kill me.

I'll just take the... roast pork

and bean sprouts, please.

- Okay.

- And some steam rice.

- Can I get you a drink as well?

- Yeah, I'll take a green tea, please.

OK. Ten pounds.

- Thank you.

Here's your receipt.

It will take a few minutes.
