The Mark Page #2

Everything is out of balance.

Something has to change.

The world is in chaos,

or religiously they'll see it as

the end of the world and other

gibberish like the Rapture.

Obviously, the world is

in desperate need of a savior

and I have the answer.

I intend to be that savior.

I have no interest in your

politics or your opinion.

The only thing that concerns me

is that I successfully complete

the job you pay me to do.

So what is it

you need from me?

A new technology has emerged,

a microchip designed

by the Avanti Corporation.

I offered to buy it.

They refused.

It's being transported by plane

from Bangkok to Berlin.

I want you

to bring it to me.

You know my price.

I want 50% upfront.

And I'm gonna need 500,000 euros

for operating costs.

All taken care of.

Here's your mark.

I'll be in touch.

(airport employee)

Sir? Sir?

We need to scan you.

(male on intercom) Flight

11 now boarding at gate 5.

(female flight attendant)

Thanks, Dao. See you on board.

Good evening, nice to

see you again, Mr. Turner.

(Chad) Oh, hey, Dao. How've you been?

It's good

to see you, too.

Are you gonna

see your father?

No, actually I'm just

here doing some business.

(airport employee)

Okay, sir, you're clear.

So you gonna be

first class, right?

(female flight attendant)

Dao.

I think I have to go now,

so I'm gonna see you on board.

(male on intercom) Flight

11 now boarding at gate 5.

(female flight attendant)

He's cute, Dao. Who's that?

(captain) Welcome aboard Flight

417, ladies and gentlemen.

We'll be flying

at 30,000 feet

and it will take roughly

12 hours to get to Berlin.

We hope you'll

enjoy the flight.

Thank you for flying

Transpacific Airways.

What would you

like to drink?

(female passenger)

Nothing for me, thanks.

And for you, Mr. Turner?

Pineapple juice,

thank you.

(Dao) What can I get you to drink, sir?

(male passenger)

Oh, yes, coffee please.

(Dao)

Coffee.

[knocking on door]

(co-pilot)

Hey, where's Jen?

Oh wow,

nice to see you too, Ted.

(captain) You're gonna have to cut

him some slack tonight, darling.

(Dao)

Why? No!

Show her, Ted.

Here it is.

Wow, that is beautiful.

Where? When?

Details, details.

Well, you're not gonna do it

during drink service, I hope.

No. No, no.

Well, I thought I would take

her for a moonlight stroll,

ending up at that bridge,

you know the one that she loves

in East Berlin?

Sounds perfect.

Yeah? I hope so.

Why can't I meet

someone decent here.

(captain) Hey, I

introduced you two first.

- That is true.

- True, lost your chance.

- Congratulations.

- Thank you.

Okay, I'm out

of here, boys.

Remember, mum's the word.

Hey there, Dao,
