The Detonator

I was in the killing game,

and I traveled alone.

Always alone.

Goalie, goalie, goalie!

[MIKE GRIFFIN'S "DANCE 4 ME" PLAYING]

* No more school No more work *

* Khakis, T-shirt And I'm ready to flirt *

* I'm gonna do it Like hollow tips *

* And if he rode in big floods Come follow this *

* I stay fly... *

One of the benefits of traveling alone

is that you can stay inconspicuous.

That is a necessity in this line of work.

But here I am in Bucharest,

a black man, trying to be inconspicuous.

* What you need, homey? * I got love

* For my girls Dancing half-naked *

* Up in the club Move to this *

* Never seen a white boy As smooth as this... *

This is my last job.

Every job is my last job. And for this one,

I'm creating a whole new persona.

Okay, we'll do the checks.

I have to go, I have business.

Griffith.

Dimitru.

Chaperones on our first date, Dimi?

[COUNTRY SONG PLAYING OVER RADIO]

- He's clean. God, makes me want

to stab the next fucking

cowboy that sings that crap.

God makes you wanna stab them?

No, I want to stab them.

Griff, we do this deal,

then please get me the fuck out of here,

back to New York before I go insane.

Whatever makes you happy, sugar.

So where we going?

To a football match.

What football game?

- What football game? - Mm-hm.

[MAN SPEAKING IN ROMANIAN OVER RADIO]

That football game.

I like this.

Dimi, soccer's such a sexy game.

I love all that kicking and screaming.

Six-hundred AK-47s

is a lot of business for a first buyer.

What are you having? A crisis of conscience?

That would not be possible.

Look...

I came to buy guns.

If I'm buying, good.

If I'm not, I'm leaving.

No?

- Okay. Okay. - Toodle-loo.

Ooh.

Ooh, he-he.

They're light.

Where are the rest of them?

Transfer the money and we will deliver the goods.

Of course, I'll transfer the money straight to your account

when you give me the rest of them.

It will be there quick, clean, safe.

Like Dimitru's sex life.

Look, I came to make a deal. We making a deal?

We have a deal?

Griff,

you should trust us.

Dimi,

I trust you, of course.

- But this is business. -

Da?

He's a fucking cop.

- Who? -

No, no, no. I'm not no cop.

What? Get your hands off of me. Get your hands off.

Dimitru, what are you doing?

I'm not a fucking cop.

No time for more lies. I know what you are.

I want to know how many of you are out there.

What the fuck is wrong with you, huh?

Smoking crack or something?

Fuck, that blow is going to your head.

I'm not a fucking cop!

Oh, my good friend, Griff,

are you worried for me?

- How many? - Dimitru, I'm not a cop.

I don't know what you're talking about.

- Fuck. - Fucking crazy.

Fuck. Fuck.

Fuck, fuck, fuck!

Get ready to move.

This is about to get really funny.

And cut his throat.

Dimitru.

Dimitru.

Smoke?

You thought I was sweet, didn't you?

Thought I had sugar all in my shoes, didn't you?

Oh, boy.

So, who was the man on the phone?

- Your mother. - Oh.

She wants me to come over again.

Tonight.

And fist-fuck her.

You know what's gonna happen, don't you?

Yeah. My big-ass lawyer is going to come and shit down your neck.

- - Bucharest jail.

Life sentence for gunrunning. Pretty girl like you,

you're gonna be the belle of the ball.

Have a couple of tits tattooed on your back

before you know what day of the week it is.

[COP SPEAKING IN ROMANIAN OVER LOUDSPEAKER]

Hell of a hole to get dropped in.

You'll see. Or you won't see

when they pull your eyes out.

You're a fucking dead man, Griffith!

Come out with your hands in the air.

Good, good, good, good.

Go on. Yes.

Like all Romanians, we have passion,

and great passion for the game,

but my team plays with a will of steel.

This is what makes good team.

You know, for journalist, you have very beautiful eyes.

Thank you.

You're fucking insane, coming here.

Where is it?

You want it to be in Washington, D.C., it'll be there.

You have ten million of our dollars,

and soon you'll make another 100 million.

So if you don't deliver the device as promised,

you and your family will be forfeit.

You think I'm afraid to die?

The Turks called him Kaziglu Bey,

the "Impaler Prince."

He slaughtered 20,000 in one day.

Skewered them for refusing to bow in his presence.

You have to admire that in a man.

Just say yes,

you'll deliver.

The son of devil.

It's a good name, don't you think?

Send him back like that. Now they know I am serious.

Katya, Orlov, come here, listen.

[MAN SPEAKING IN ROMANIAN OVER RADIO]

Today was a hard day.

I killed four people.

My résumé reads like a graveyard,

and it's still a work in progress.

Sonni Griffith.

Do you have any idea what kind of sentence

gunrunning and multiple murder carry

in the sovereign state of Romania?

No cocoa at bedtime.

Give us a minute, will you?

Come on, play nice, Griff.

I'm putting my ass on the line for you here,

otherwise you're gonna get shafted in yours.

Which would you prefer?

Well, buy me a drink and then we can negotiate.

What are you doing here?

You're under indictment

in the U.S. for a suspicious death,

you got a court case in two days.

If you miss that, you're gonna be considered a fugitive.
