as a staging ground for his snipers.

Won the gold medal, triple lutz.

Best all around scumbag.

Are you going to be playing that damn thing

all the way to Montenegro?

Yep. Simon never liked

my guitar playing.

Really?

Can't say I do, either.

So it's going to be like that, huh?

All right. Very funny.

So what is your master plan?

You have a contact when we get to this town?

Nope. Never been up there before.

I'm just going to start knocking on doors.

You see that? Signs are in Cyrillic now.

We've entered Republica Srpska.

That quickly?

Ten minutes outside of Sarajevo,

and we're in the land

of milk and honey and rape and pillage.

- Are we going to be okay here?

- Who the hell knows?

But $5 million is $5 million,

and I'm not stopping.

$5 million?

Reward.

The rest is for you guys

to split as you please.

Wait, wait, wait, wait. Reward?

You're not actually thinking

of capturing him, are you?

He may be thinking it,

but it ain't going to happen.

- Don't be so sure.

- Don't be so stupid.

After this interview's finished,

everything's in play, my friends.

Whoa. Hold on.

Duck, this is nuts.

You're not really supporting this, are you?

One time in Rwanda,

Simon decided he was going

to assassinate the leader of the Hutus

and end the war.

Three days later, he was in Morocco

getting a massage

from a hooker named Gladys.

Simon has his whims,

but this one I am not supporting.

This isn't a whim.

You know what this means to me.

Okay, we are journalists.

We can't do this.

It's... It's unethical and... and insane.

It would be a pleasure

to personally catch him.

By ourselves. By ourselves.

We don't even have any weapons.

If I gave you a gun,

would you know how to use it?

No.

Then what the f***

are you complaining about?

I told you.

The moment you start drinking

that Bosnian brandy,

the devil's sitting in the corner

just laughing.

Do we know any actual facts at all, guys?

My buddy at Newsweek says

he's so afraid of getting caught

that he's grown his hair out

and has a full Orthodox beard.

Funny. 'Cause I heard

he actually shaved his head.

He's bald as a turd.

Now, what we do know is that the Fox

drives in a convoy of orange cars.

All right?

So we should keep a lookout for them.

That's funny, Simon.

I heard he's traveling around

in a stolen UN de-mining vehicle.

Well then, we should keep

an eye out for that, too.

Yeah, that's great.

There's only a thousand

UN de-mining trucks in this country.

Why don't we stop each one?

"Hey, knock, knock.

Is the Fox in there? No?"

Okay, well, we should be done in,

what, say, 9 to 12 years.

One second he's pissing himself
