The Equalizer Page #4

her life will go on.

Yours is gonna end right here,

on this funky floor

over $9800.

You should have taken the money.

Who are you?

Twenty-six one-thousand,

27 one-thousand,

28 one-thousand.

I'm sorry.

Mr. McCall, it's lunchtime.

Mr. McCall.

Lunchtime.

You test tomorrow

and you're eating that?

These are for you.

Open it.

I made the weight.

Tomorrow I'm gonna ace that test.

Thanks to you.

What happened?

Uh...

Hit it on something stupid.

In what investigators are calling

a gangland-style execution,

five men were killed

at some point last night

in an office above this restaurant.

Police sources have said the killings

have all the earmarks of a turf war

between rival factions.

Names are not yet being released...

How's it going?

How you doing, sir?

Morgan Pederson.

I know who you are.

Get in the car.

Take me to the murder scene.

We figured two, maybe three,

guys killed them all that quickly.

If it was a power

play, no one saw it coming.

None of our informants heard

about this going down.

Security system's drive was taken

so we're blind in here.

At 11:
17, a waiter goes up

with a tray of food, finds them dead.

I want images from every security

camera within a six-block radius.

If you have any trouble,

call that number...

and it will be taken care of.

Phones charged and on.

I tend to call at odd hours.

Now, if you could drive me

to my residence.

Hey, wait a second, Mr. Sunshine.

Um...

What do I look like to you?

A chauffeur?

This is our town.

You're a f***ing guest.

Let me apologize for my conduct.

It was a long flight on short notice,

and I like to focus, to work quickly.

The deaths of Mr. Pushkin's men

have interrupted his operations here.

Imports, movements of goods,

have all ceased.

That's unacceptable.

I'm the one Mr. Pushkin calls in

when people like you f*** up.

Mm. I don't like your tone...

I'm accountable now.

You have taken

Mr. Pushkin's money for years.

Money that comes with conditions.

Non-negotiable conditions.

Problem you're having with me

is you think you matter. You don't.

I am all that matters.

And so we're clear:

I'm not here to say "please. "

I'm here to tell you what to do.

Be ready for business.

We open tomorrow.

Brian, you seen Ralphie? Supposed to

be taking that security guard test.

Called in and quit.

Quit?

No notice either.

Kids, right?

We're closed.

Mr. McCall.

Ralphie.

Heard you quit today.

I got worried.

Uh...

Oh, uh, my mom had

a little accident here last night.

There was a fire.

I see.

So I'm gonna help out around here now.

Okay.

We have a lot of work to do.

Okay.

Yeah, so...

Need some help?

Yeah, if you're not busy,
