The Killer's Game

(IN ENGLISH ON COMMS) Joseph, I meant to remind you,

no blood! The opera house is 139 years old.

Well, at least the carpet's red.

- (MUFFLED GUNSHOTS) - (GROANS)

What difference would 10 seconds make?

- (IN ENGLISH) It can't. - (MUFFLED GUNSHOT)

Drop your weapon!

- (GUNFIRE) - (GROANS)

- (BONES CRUNCH) - (GROANING)

Come on. Let's get out of here.

I got you. Come on.

- Are you okay? - Yeah.

Do you know what happened?

A dangerous world, I guess.

- Is your foot okay? - Yeah.

Hey.

What's your name?

Uh...

Joe.

Thank you, Joe.

- (TINNITUS RINGING) - (GROANING)

Are you okay?

Hey, are you okay?

Hey, do you have water, please?

Please, come.

- (CLICKS) - Shit.

Okay, there's nothing here to indicate any tumors

- so we can rule that out. All right.

That is one hell of a resume you've got there.

Yeah, there's no substitute for experience.

Yeah.

Is that really necessary?

What, all this and you're scared of a needle?

You don't know what I can do with that needle.

Man up, soldier.

You know, in all the years, Joe,

how many hits to the head do you think you've taken?

Define hit.

You know, saw stars, blacked out,

threw up, that kind of thing.

Uh, I never threw up.

Yeah, I guess I've had my bell rung

- a few times. - Mm.

It's just, repeated head trauma

can lead to CTE

which the scans can't detect.

What are you saying?

I'm saying it might be time

to reevaluate your lifestyle, Sergeant Flood.

- Okay? - Yeah.

I'll run some more tests.

Joseph, it's 11 o'clock already.

You know I worry when you're late.

You worry because worrying is what you do.

I had to see Doc Kagen. He says hi.

You were wounded?

No, I've been

having these really bad headaches. I told you.

Doctors.

- What do doctors know? - Yeah.

Well, I've been having double vision as well, so...

That's bad.

In this game, you wouldn't know what target to shoot.

Are you gonna drink that coffee

or just stir it to death?

Don't you worry about my coffee.

So, I spoke to our friend.

The police are working on a theory

that one of Petrov's own security team

did the hit. You're clean.

Am I?

Are you asking professionally or philosophically?

I don't know.

Sometimes I ask myself,

"Why the hell do I do this?"

Petrov was scum, trafficking women.

You did the world a favor.

What will they say about me

when someone takes me off the board?

Will anyone even notice?

Leave judgement to God.

Our job is simply to arrange the meeting.

Now for the good news.

What good news?

The $750,000 you just made,

- 30% to the laundry... - (WHIRRING)

...minus expenses...

Gonna buy you a new calculator.

- Minus my commission. - (WHIRRING)

Cheap at half the price.

We're gonna need to talk about some of these expenses.

You need a vacation.

Get some sun. Meet a nice girl.

Where am I gonna meet a nice girl?

Who knows where you'll meet her?

Just get me another gig.

Joseph, never get so busy making a living

that you forget to make a life.

Did you read that on a fortune cookie?

That's Dolly Parton, my friend.

(SHINE BY DOLLY PARTON PLAYING)

Rehearsals are closed to the public.

Uh, belongs to one of your dancers.

Thanks.

Hey.

- Hi. Hey.

- Joe? - Yeah.

- Yeah. - Hi.

I'm sorry. I didn't realize I had that.
