I do not want to fight you, but you leave me no choice.
Boy, you just gave me a great idea!
- I mean a big one! - Welcome back to E! News Daily...
our 30-minute look at the latest in entertainment news.
I'm Bianca Ferrar.
It's for you. A present.
Do you want me to open it? I'll open it.
How do you like it? Nice, eh?
Mr. McGuffin?
Can I have a word with you?
Here. It's for a contract. Twenty grand, right?
His name is Norman Stansfield, and he's in room 4602...
in the D.E.A. building, 26 Federal Plaza.
- I'm not taking it. - Why not?
- It's too heavy. - Well.
Will you rent me your gear for the day?
I never lend out my gear.
But...
you still have your gun. Use it.
Just do me a favor. Don't shoot out the window.
Why are you so mean to me?
Wildly killing people you don't give a shit about...
but you won't get the bastards that killed my whole family?
Revenge is not good once you're done. Believe.
- It's better to forget. - Forget?
After I've seen the outline of my brother's body on the floor...
you expect me to forget?
I want to kill those sons of bitches.
Blow their fucking heads off.
Nothing's the same after you've killed someone.
Your life is changed forever.
You have to sleep with one eye open for the rest of your life.
I don't give a shit about sleeping, Leon.
I want love...
or death.
That's it.
I want death.
Get off my case, Mathilda. I'm tired of your games.
There's this really great game, Leon.
Makes people nicer. Starts them thinking.
The kind of game you love.
If I win...
you keep me with you... for life.
And if you lose?
Go shopping alone, like before.
You're gonna lose, Mathilda.
There's a round in the chamber. I heard it.
So what?
What's it to you if I end up with a bullet in the head?
Nothing.
I hope you're not lying, Leon.
I really hope that deep down inside there's no love in you.
Because if there is...
just a little bit of love in there for me...
I think that in a few minutes you'll regret you never said anything.
I love you, Leon.
I win.
I took a hit.
I need a hand now.
I know she's young, but she learns fast.
Kids need to be shaped into something, right?
I know. I taught you that. But ain't there an age limit?
She's 18.
Really?
How about something to drink, Tony?
Sure. Manolo, glass of milk for Leon.
Nice tattoo.
Manolo, make that two.
- What's that for? - Can't afford to catch cold.
First you find out where the chain is.
You can't see it, but you can feel it. Here.
- I'll ring, you start talking. - What do I say?
Whatever you want.
- Yes? - Hi.
It's Susan.
I'm sorry. You must have the wrong door, little girl.
I don't know any Susan.
Move back a little. I can't see anything.
The light's out.
It's all dark out here.
- Mister, I'm scared. - Okay.
What the fuck are you doing?
Open up.
If it leaves your mouth, I'll pull the trigger, capisce?
Here's okay. Let it go.
I said, "Let it go."
Move. Move over.
Easy. Easy.
Easy. Careful. You want me...
Go ahead. Your turn.
Help me. Please don't beat me.
Sir?
Sir, it's not my dope.
Sir, look I...
A little left, please.
Before... Ple...
Now, the security shot.
No, the second goes higher on the chest.
Aim for the heart and lungs.
There. Right there. You see?
The first shot takes him out of order.
- The second finishes him off. - What are you fucking doing?
Never in the face.
If they can't recognize the client, you don't get paid.
You could take out anybody and said you did the job.
- Got it? - Got it. Never in the face.
- Now you can put the tools away. - What are you fucking doing?
What the fuck is going on? Hey, mister!
What are you fuckin...
You see, when you use the silencer a lot...
you have to put a piece of cloth here...
because it gets very hot and could burn it inside.
A damp, black cloth is the best.
What you doing?
We said no women, no kids.
Who do you think this is gonna kill, junkies and monkeys?
Now it's clean.
Let's get out of here.
I thought we don't have the right to drink.
I know, but we're making an exception for your first time.
Well, if we're making exceptions for a job well-done...
how about a kiss, like in the movies?
Yes.
What you doing?
- I'm going to kiss you. - I want you to stop, please.
Come on. Just a kiss.
Stop. Everyone is watching us.
Go sit down.
Enjoy.
- You don't believe me, do you? - How's that?
- When I say I'm in love with you. - Mathilda, please drop it.
- Just change the subject, okay? - Okay. Sorry.
So, how old were you when you made your first hit?
Nineteen.
Beat you.
- What you doing? - Can't afford to catch a cold.
- There's no doorbell. - So knock on the door.
- Yes? - Hi.
I'm looking for Mr. Reuben's apartment...
but it's all dark out here in the hall, and I'm lost.
Just a second.
You want more? Come on. Show your fucking face.
You think you're going to get me that easily?
When it's tough like this, you know it's gonna be ugly.
Better make it quick or else we'll be all day listening to his crap.
Asshole! Come on, show me your fucking face, faggot!
- Come on, gum trick. - Hey.
What about the ring trick? You know that one?
Ring trick? Come on, asshole. I'm waiting.
Show it to me, motherfucker.
That's the ring trick.
Mario, go back to the barbershop. We'll finish later.
Leon, what's up? All done already?
Nicer than people, eh?
I told you that.
You got a problem?
Get the chair. Sit down.
I was thinking.
If something happens to me someday...
Hey, Leon, nothing's gonna happen to you.
You're indestructible. Bullets slide off you. You play with 'em.
Tony, I thought about my money.
You remember the girl who came here the other day?
Her name is Mathilda.
If anything happens to me...
I'd like you...
to give her...
my money.
You can count on me, Leon.
Thank you, Tony.
I won't be long.
- Did I do something wrong? - No.
This one is too big.
Yeah, and I only get the leftovers, is that it?
Mathilda, since I met you...
everything's been different.
So I just need some time alone.
You need some time to grow up a little.
I finished growing up, Leon.
I just get older.
For me it's the opposite. I'm old enough.
I need time to grow up.
Shit.
Come on! Hustle!
- Good shot. - Come on.
You're new, aren't you? Fifth floor, right?
- You can't sit here like that. - Really, why not?
Nothing's free. Like a parking meter.
When you stop, you pay. It's the law.
- Only on T.V. - What'd you say?
- Forget it. How much is your meter? - Ten dollars...
a month.
Got change?
Don't worry about it. We'll do ten for twelve.
I'll pay now for the rest of the year.
Okay, a year.
Does paying rent here mean I have to put up with you guys?
So go play somewhere else.
I need to think.
Stand up. Don't you like your job?
Food.
- Where you going? - Special delivery, room 4602.
Sign here.
Come here.
- Have a nice weekend, girls. - Thanks.
I'm gonna go to the restroom.
Special delivery?
Let me guess.
Chinese?
Thai, maybe?
I've got it.
Italian food.
What's your name, angel?
I want you to put the sack on the floor.
Good.
Now I want you to tell me everything you know about Italian food.
Don't forget the name of the chef who fixed it for me.
Nobody sent me. I do business for myself.
So this is something...
personal, is it?
What filthy piece of shit...
did I do now?
You killed my brother.
I'm sorry.
And you wanna join him?
It's always the same thing.
It's when you start to become really afraid of death...
that you learn to appreciate life.
Do you like life, sweetheart?
That's good.
Because I take no pleasure...
in taking a life...
if it's from a person who doesn't care about it.
Stan, I've been looking all over for you.
- I checked upstairs... - What? I'm busy.
It's Malky, man. He's dead.
Malky was makin' a buy for us from the Chinaman.
But they got nothin' to do with it.
They told me this guy came from the outside. He was a pro.
He was fast. He fuckin' came out of nowhere.
Boom, shoots the Chinaman dead in two seconds.
Easy, man. I'm a cop.
Then turns around, says something to Malky like...
No women, no kids.
I think it was somethin' personal.
Death is whimsical today.
Blood, do you hear me?
Yeah, I hear you, Stan. Just chill out, man.
Would you take her up to my office?
All right.
Jesus fucking Christ.
"Leon, my love.
I know where to find the guys who killed my brother.
Their boss is Norman Stansfield. He's in the D.E.A. building, room 4602.
I'm gonna do them myself.
If something goes wrong, I left you 20 grand on the table.
It's for a contract. Five grand a head, right?
I know I'll feel better after I do this.
I love you."
Wait. I won't be long.
I can't park in front like this. It's a federal building!
He's gonna do the same exact thing that I said.
A nine "millie."
Bullets.
Another nine "millie."
What'd you plan to do with all these guns?
Maybe she was planning on taking out the whole building.
Holy shit!
What's this? Lunch.
Careful, Blood, might be poisoned.
There's no anchovies on this.
Is that what you call "I won't be long"? I been here for ten minutes.
I did my best.
Do you like it?
Yes.
So say it.
I like it.
Not thirsty?
You know, a girl's first time is very important.
It determines the rest of her life sexually.
I read that once in one of my sister's magazines.
My girlfriends told me they hated their first experience.
That's because they didn't love the guys.
They just did it to show off.
Afterwards, they started liking it, like cigarettes.
Will I like it the first time?
Mathilda, no.
Why not?
I just can't.
- You love someone else? - No.
I mean...
There was someone a long time ago.
Before I came to the States.
Her father didn't want her to see me.
She was from a very respectable family.
Mine was...
you know...
not so respectable.
Her dad went nuts every time she'd take off to see me.
She still snuck off to see you, right?
Right.
See, nothing can stop love, Leon.
He killed her.
One shot through the head.
They kept him in jail for two days, and they let him go free.
They said it was an accident.
So...
one night I...
waited for him.
Five hundred feet with a lens.
He also had an accident.
The same night I took a boat and came here...
to meet up with my father who was working for Tony.
I was 19.
Since then I've never left the city, and...
I've never had another girlfriend.
You see, Mathilda...
I wouldn't be a good lover.
Okay.
Would you do me one favor?
What?
I'm sick of watching you sleep on your chair.
We're gonna share the bed.
I don't think it's a good idea.
It's okay.
Put your legs up on the bed.
Yeah. That's nice.
Put your head down. It's okay. Relax.
Good night, Leon.
Good night.
I want a piece of cake first!
Manolo, take the kids in the kitchen.
I have a lot of respect for your business, Tony.
When you've killed for us in the past...
we've always been satisfied.
That's exactly why today is going to be very hard for me.
I hope you'll excuse my mood.
My man was killed right here on your turf.
The Chinks tell me that the hit man...
was kind of the Italian type.
So we figured that Tony might know something.
Wait. There's more.
You're gonna love this.
A few hours later, a little 12-year-old girl comes into my office...
armed to the teeth, with the firm intention of sending me to the morgue.
Do you know who came and got her right there in my building?
The very same...
Italian hit man.
I'm dying to meet him.
Relax. Everything's fine. Sleep well?
I never really sleep. Got one eye open always.
Yeah, I forgot.
I never saw someone with one eye open snore so much.
- I snore? - Like a baby.
I'm gonna get some milk for breakfast. I won't be long.
Don't forget the code when you come back.
Two knocks, then one, and two knocks again. Right?
Right.
Ring these up. I'm gonna go get some milk.
From here on out, you don't make a sound.
You answer my questions by nodding yes or shaking your head no.
Is he alone?
Does he expect you?
Do you have keys to the apartment?
Is there a code, a way of knocking, so he knows it's you?
Alpha team.
- Final position. We're ready to go. - Be careful.
What up? Move! Fuck.
Shit.
Alpha team. Man down.
I told you.
- Bring me everyone. - What do you mean, "everyone"?
Everyone!
Take this.
Go take a look.
- Don't move. - Do you see anything?
It's the guy. He's here. He's got a gun to my head.
Nobody moves.
- Let the girl go. - Take it easy, man!
Okay, the girl's comin' out. Let the girl go.
Grab the axe off the wall. Over there. Go!
You're coming with us.
Christ, he shot him!
Bastard!
Move!
- Shut the fucking water off! - Got it.
Come!
We're in a bad way here. Send the cats.
I don't know what happened. I didn't see 'em coming, I swear!
I just went shopping and I came back, and they were everywhere.
Stay away from the window.
Come here.
Snipers.
Okay, now, get this fucking asshole out of there.
- How are we gonna get outta here now? - Leave it to me. We're checking out.
But it's not big enough for you. It's barely big enough for me.
- We said no discussion. - No, I'm not letting...
- I'm not going! I won't go! - Listen to me.
We have no chance together. But if I'm alone, I can do it.
Trust me. I'm in good shape.
I know I've got a lot of money with Tony.
We'll take it and leave together, just the two of us.
Go.
You're saying that so I won't worry.
- I don't wanna lose you. - You're not gonna lose me.
You've given me a taste for life.
I wanna be happy, sleep in a bed, have roots.
You'll never be alone again.
Please, go now, baby. Go.
Calm down. Go now. Go.
See you at Tony's. I'm gonna clean them all. Tony's in an hour.
I love you, Mathilda.
I love you, too, Leon.
Hey, what is going on up there? Take the guy out, not the building.
We've got one breathing here!
Get a medic on the horn!
Clear the hall! Let him through!
- We've got a wounded man. Make way! - Down those stairs.
Let's go! Move!
Get that guy off the stairs!
- Get your team back out there! - I got him!
We've got two men comin' down the stairs. Let's hurry!
You okay? Hey, I need a medic over here!
Move your fuckin' asses.
Squad Number One, what's the status on the apartment?
Can't see shit. Too much smoke. Give us five minutes.
You got it.
What? Two hundred men can't find one man and a girl?
Did you find the girl?
How are you doing? Take your mask off, quick.
Let me see you. That's deep. Right. And this one here...
You're from the 3rd Precinct?
Let's open up his sleeve a little bit.
All right, fine. Put it down. This one.
You stay there for two minutes. I'll be right back.
Let me put the mask back on. I breathe better with it.
You're all right. Sit tight.
Come on, everybody out! Let's go! Out!
Clear the way, men.
What are you doing here? Get out. Come on.
At your service.
This is from...
Mathilda.
Shit.
Get out of here!
Leon asked me to help you out...
if somethin' happened, and I think somethin' happened.
He put aside a little cash for you.
So what I'm suggesting is that...
seein' as how you're still so young...
I should hold the money for you until you're older.
Like a bank, you know, except...
it's better than a bank 'cause banks always get knocked off.
No one knocks off old Tony.
But it's your money. In the meantime...
all you gotta do is come here every once in awhile...
and I'll dish it out so you can have a little fun.
Here.
- Here's a hundred bucks to start. - Can't I get a job instead?
A job? What the hell can you do?
I can clean.
I ain't got no work for a 12-year-old kid...
so get it out of your goddamn head!
It's over! The game's over!
Leon's dead!
You hear me?
Come on. You think I ain't hurtin' too?
But he's dead.
You're gonna forget all this craziness and get your little ass back to school.
Now take this money and get the hell outta here.
Don't let me see your face till next month...
'cause something tells me I'm about to lose my famous kind streak.
My parents...
died...
in a car accident four weeks ago.
It was terrible.
We didn't have the time to get to know one another when you first came here...
but I want you to know I'm not the kind of woman who'd let down a child...
whatever her situation, whatever her mistake.
So I'm going to help you and do my best to welcome you here again.
But on one condition:
You have to stop lying to me, Mathilda.
I want you to take a chance...
and trust me.
Tell me what happened to you.
My family got shot down by D.E.A. officers...
because of a drug problem.
I left with the greatest guy on Earth.
He was a hit man, the best in town, but he died this morning.
If you don't help me, I'll be dead by tonight.
- You know her? - I've never seen her.
I think we'll be okay here.
