you wouldn't be doing this.

Come on. Come on, baby.

Look, it's... I promise it's just going

to be two more days, okay?

Oh, well, I can wait.

But I don't know for how long.

You're torturing me.

And you're torturing me.

So we're even.

Hello? Hello?

I must be a complete f***ing idiot.

Hey, look, I know I'm new

and green and a joke to you,

but I just graduated

from Harvard, okay?

And I know something's up.

I haven't the slightest idea

what you're talking about.

Oh, come on.

You and Simon, you're onto a story.

Me and Simon are just hanging out.

I saw your girlfriend when she

came by the office two weeks ago.

She is hotter than hot.

You don't leave her in Greece to hang out.

You been listening to my conversations?

No.

No, it was, um...

No, the official term

is eavesdropping, all right?

Little sh*t.

Look, I know something's up, all right?

I want in on it.

Forget it. There's no story.

I went to Harvard, okay?

I know there's a story.

What is up with this Harvard sh*t?

You know, I dated a girl

from Harvard once,

and she wasn't so f***ing bright.

Look, my father is a cold,

mean son of a b*tch,

and he thinks I'm soft and weak

and not quite cut out for this type of work.

And there's no way on God's green earth

I'm going to prove that to him

by letting you get

a great story without me.

How do you know it's so great?

You're hanging out with a guy

who had a f***ing meltdown

on national television

and is a punch line in the business.

If it wasn't good, you wouldn't be doing it.

Look at you.

Little Mike-f***ing-Wallace.

Okay.

But Simon ain't going to like this.

Yeah?

Well, I ain't going to like Simon.

You see, his main bodyguard

is this psychopathic little f***

named Srdjan.

He had a real fondness

for raping and mutilating

these very young Muslim girls

as he was ethnically cleansing the villages.

- Jesus.

- Oh, that ain't the good part.

Sh*t, the good part,

Benjamin, is this Srdjan,

the guy in charge of protecting the Fox,

he's got this tattoo on his forehead

that reads in Cyrillic,

"I was dead the day I was born."

They teach that evil sh*t at Harvard?

Now, we are headed right into the heart

of this Balkan madness,

into Serb territory.

Republica Srpska.

It's a backward land

where they will kill you

for trying to hurt Boghanovic

as easily as somebody kills a mosquito.

The Fox is their god.

People protect their god.

Now, if you're still interested...

we leave in 20 minutes.

Let's go find us some war criminals.

Hey, Benjamin, you know what that is

that we're passing?

Yeah, it looks like, uh, a ski lift.

'84 Winter Olympics

was held right here in Sarajevo.

Eight years later, the Fox used this area
