REPORTER ON TV: You know, ever since the banks
started to suffer these cyberattacks,
the market has been shaky.
Fortunately, the Federal Reserve Chairman
started to put more money into the economy
and things have started to stabilize.
Better housing, less taxes.
More money for you, more money for me, more money for all of us.
Fifteen away.
(MUSIC PLAYING)
Okay, guys, we're live in one minute.
(MUSIC PLAYING)
Sir! Sir, can you comment on the current market situation?
Will you be expecting any market corrections, perhaps?
No comment.
Sir, you have been responsible for bringing
the market back onto its feet...
(ALL GASPING)
(ALL SCREAMING)
Fuck, yeah!
(MAN LAUGHING)
(PEOPLE CLAPPING)
(MUSIC PLAYING)
FEMALE REPORTER ON TV: The chairman of the Federal Reserve
has just been shot
- outside the Federal Reserve building. - (MUSIC PLAYING)
We have no idea where the shots were fired from...

(ENGINE STARTING)
- Hey, Alex. Time's up. - (GUN COCKS)
Alex! You bastards!
- (SCREAMING) - (CELL DOOR SLIDES SHUT)
(KEYS JANGLING)
Hey, sir, sir. Hey, hey, hey, hey.
Hey... Look, I don't think you heard me before. I just... I wanted...
I just wanted to ask for five minutes on the Internet. Is that okay?
Fuck.
(MUSIC PLAYING)
CUSTOMS AGENT: Next.
ALEX: It all started with a small immigrant family.
We left Ukraine in search of a new life.
- Welcome to Canada. - Thank you.
We couldn't afford to live in the city,
so we ended up in London.
London, Ontario.
(FATHER SPEAKING UKRAINIAN)
ALEX: Of course, like most hopeful immigrants,
we found ourselves a house that we couldn't actually pay for.
But eventually, a Russian friend of the family
- helped Mom get a job... - (PHONE RINGING)
as a bookkeeper's assistant at a bank.
(ANSWERING MACHINE BEEPS)
Mr. And Mrs. Danyliuk, we're calling about your overdue payments...
(FATHER SPEAKING UKRAINIAN)
ALEX: Everything my mom earned
went to pay off the mortgage.
Don't touch anything.
But Dad wasn't of much use.
He tried, but people didn't trust him.
So we basically lived on welfare.
(SPEAKING UKRAINIAN)
(MOTHER SPEAKING RUSSIAN)
(FATHER SPEAKING RUSSIAN)
ALEX: I didn't have any friends to play with
or socialize with,
except my mom's computer,
and, to be honest, we got along very well.
I'm talking Internet, video games, forums,
chat rooms with random strangers,
all sorts of sites, easy access to information, and infinite possibilities.
It was this that made me want to go to college.
Fortunately, or unfortunately,
I learned early on that I needed to save up money
for school myself.
My job was being a clicker.
I'd build up traffic to sites by changing my IP address
and visiting the same site over and over again.
It was boring, but it was easy money.
For every 1, 000 clicks, I made $20.
It wasn't a lot,
but all big things have small beginnings.
Time went by, and I wanted to learn more about how the world worked,
especially the money world.
The Internet was full of ideas and opinions about the banking system,
the financial crisis, the vulnerability of the system,
and about the need for change.
But some things just never changed.
(PARENTS ARGUING INDISTINCTLY)
(ARGUING IN UKRAINIAN)
(FATHER SPEAKING RUSSIAN)
ALEX: So that's how I grew up.
As you can see, it wasn't a fairy tale,
but I was hoping that would change.
Just a coffee, please.
REPORTER ON TV: Yesterday, a cyberattack was perpetrated
on a number of government sites and banks.
Responsibility for this attack was claimed by DarkWeb,
an online criminal organization led by a hacker named Zed.
Now, he is considered to be an international criminal
implicated in dozens of cases around the world.
Now, this video was uploaded claiming that responsibility.
DISTORTED VOICE: We are DarkWeb.
We will not stand by and allow slave masters to control our lives.
We will fight back. We will bring them down.
This is just the beginning.
REPORTER: And in other news, the stock market
has been unstable due to these attacks.
Mom, I'm home.
(MOTHER CRYING)
Mom?
Mom.
Hey, hey, hey. What's wrong? What's wrong?
Okay, Mom, that's bullshit.
That's bullshit. You'll get another job.
That bank owns the mortgage,
and now they know that I'm unemployed
and I can't pay monthly bills.
We will lose the house.
Okay. Well, what did Dad say?
Dad...
He's asleep.
(CONTINUES CRYING)
Okay. Okay, Mom.
- What is this? - This is money.
All right, this'll last you for a few months,
and then after that, I can get more.
Where did you get this? Did you steal it?
No, no, no. I didn't steal it.
I've been saving up for college.
But how? You never told us, and...
Where did you get this?
Mom, okay, that doesn't matter.
What matters is we're not going to lose the house. Okay?
I can't take it. You need to pay for school.
Look, Mom, please. Okay, I'm an adult.
Okay, I can get a job. I can make this back,
but please take it.
What am I supposed to say to Dad?
Tell him the truth.
(MOTHER CRYING)
ALEX: I hated the bank that fired my mom.
I spent years saving up that money.
I put down a deposit for school,
and now I risked losing everything.
I had to start over.
I didn't have years to spend.
DarkWeb was this online hacker group
that was getting a lot of news at the time.
I was surprised that their site hadn't been shut down.
It all seemed kind of simple at first.
I just needed to make an account and sign up.
But real access wasn't given out so easily.
"Soldier"?
They told me to do something illegal.
That was how they verified the rookies.
To me, this seemed simple, but I needed a victim.
There was this one guy at school who really had it coming,
- Randy Bickle. - Whoo!
Maybe next time, watch where you're going. (LAUGHS)
What's your problem, man?
What did you just say to me, Dostoyevsky?
I said why don't you pick on somebody your own size, huh?
You want to go? Huh? You want to go? Huh?
Huh? (LAUGHS)
Yeah, next time, asshole.
ALEX: I built a pretty simple site that sold fake supplements,
and Randy fell for it.
Dad! Can I use your credit card?
(LAPTOP CHIMES)
(LAUGHING)
Yes.
I leaked the information to DarkWeb, and before I knew it,
one of their guys was communicating with me.
(SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY)
ALEX: This guy who called himself Roosevelt gave me low-level access.
In reality, it was more of a job.
Black-market trading.
First time around, he sent me a couple of powerful gaming laptops,
and I just had to sell them.
So I went on Craigslist and found a buyer.
I sent Roosevelt his cut and bought myself a new laptop.
In other words, I was in business.
And I liked it. A lot.
(INAUDIBLE)
Took me four years to save up 30 grand.
This time, I did it in four weeks.
And now I was ready.
So, I'll call you guys when I get there.
Be careful.
All right.
And, uh, I'm going to be sending you guys money every month, so...
Spend some time together. Look after each other.
Welcome to your new home, Mr. Sawyer.
The building has 24-hour security, has a shared rooftop...
There's a loading dock around the back.
You've got all brand-new stainless steel appliances,
floor-to-ceiling windows.
The neighborhood is absolutely up-and-coming.
There's not much more you could get.
Do you have any questions?
Yeah, how do I connect to the Internet?
ALEX: Unfortunately, my payment was late,
and the university said I could only start in January.
That meant I needed money to live.
I'd made enough money for Roosevelt
that he increased my access on DarkWeb.
I could now buy credit card numbers and fake IDs
and use them for online shopping.
AUTOMATED VOICE: Next station is St. George.
- I'm expecting a package. - Okay.
Yeah, let me check it out.
Yeah, this should be it.
- Just sign right there. - Sure.
- And there we go, Mr. Munchausen. - Thank you.
Can you take me to Chinatown?
ALEX: I couldn't use Craigslist to find buyers in the city.
Too many cops and fakes.
So I tried my luck with a few pawnshops and jewelry stores.
You, uh, you speak English, yeah?
I have watches.
Okay?
I want to sell them.
Do you want to buy them?
Look, these are real watches, okay?
These cost $15,000.
I sell for 10.
- Thousand? - Yes.
(BOTH LAUGHING)
(STUTTERS) What's that?
No, no, no. Look, look.
See, these are real watch, too, okay?
I sell these to you for 200 bucks.
(MAN CONTINUES LAUGHING)
(MAN SPEAKS CANTONESE)
Ten. Ten. I got... There's three watches.
Says here you purchased these three days ago.
How come you're selling them?
You know, I just didn't want them anymore.
So return them.
I can't. I lost the card that I used to purchase them, so...
Well, wait for a replacement card.
I mean, surely, it's worth the wait
rather than losing money on the resale.
Look, do you want to buy them or do you not?
Okay. Mister, uh, Munchausen.
We're going to need two pieces of ID
and a proof of address.
Bank statement is fine.
Then we're going to get you to sign a form
stating that these were not stolen,
at which point, we'll review your application.
If everything checks out, then you can come back,
and we'll make the purchase.
- You can't just buy them now? - Sorry.
You know, I can drop the price by another thousand.
We're gonna have to follow protocol.
Hey, you know, don't worry about it.
I'll just... I'll keep them for now.
Sure.
You having a rough day?
Sorry, do I know you?
Sye.
Hey, I just wanted to talk to you about your watches.
(CHUCKLES)
No, no, no. I'm not a cop. I'm not a cop.
I just might want to buy your watches.
Yeah, what do you want to talk about?
Look, if it'll help, I'll give you five grand for all of them.
(LAUGHS)
- I'm not an idiot. Thirty grand. - Seven.
Thirty grand.
All right, tell you what.
I go in there. I sell them for at least 30,000.
I take 30% off the top.
All right, but you get the money today, huh.
- Otherwise... - Otherwise, you take your watches and go.
Hey, look, the watches are stolen anyway, right?
So what do you got to lose?
- All right. Yeah. - All right. Let's go.
Hey. Whoa, whoa. Wait, wait. I go in alone, all right?
Hey, Christopher. Look who it is.
How you doing, buddy boy?
(INAUDIBLE)
What the hell?
Oh, you dick.
That's rude.
Come on. Walk with me.
What happened back there?
What? Exactly what I said I was going to do.
No, you disappeared, though.
Yeah, I went out the back door. Here.
You didn't tell me you were going to go out the back door.
What's this?
$24,500 in very dirty 20s.
What?
Well, it would have taken awhile to get fifties and hundreds.
But you sold my watches for 35,000?
Receipt's in the bag.
See, now, you don't strike me as some student
who has very expensive taste in watches,
and you don't seem like a thief,
so I'm thinking to myself, "Who is this kid?"
How'd you do that so fast?
I'll tell you if you tell me how you got those watches.
Hey, hey, don't worry. It's all in there.
I promise.
Okay.
(LAUGHS)
Yeah.
Now, you want to approach every buyer differently.
I know that sounds simple, but it is important,
because you say the wrong thing,
you could lose credibility.
You know, you could get blacklisted real quick.
You don't want to do that.
SYE: You're still working in these conditions, eh?
I mean, it takes a lot of strength to do what you guys do.
You should give yourselves a pat on the back.
You guys are troupers. And you know who else shares my opinion?
Your wives, your parents, your sons and daughters,
and I think that you should be able to call them.
Now, you ever use one of these?
But if you can put yourself in the shoes of the buyer,
phew,
you're gold.
Thank you very much.
You're under arrest.
SYE: And then there are also people,
you know, sometimes people in high places
that you (SCOFFS) you don't think are on the market,
and they're not, until you find them something they like.
All right, what we have for you, gentlemen,
nothing short of extraordinary.
ALEX: So we got monochrome LCD display,
USB interface,
20 megabytes of built-in memory.
It's got an electronic compass.
More importantly, your friends will be really impressed
as to how you actually got your hands on them, so...
Who'd you steal from this time?
I didn't steal them, Tommy.
I know somebody that works for the watch company,
get them for a good price.
How many have you got?
Two for you.
Eight for your friends.
Yeah, we'll take them.
SYE: Now then, there's your longtime buyer.
Now you always got to make them happy.
You got to keep bringing them stuff,
because trust is the most important commodity
in this business, all right?
Takes a long time to build,
but you can lose it (SNAPS) just like that.
What's up?
- Hey, I'm Chris, by the way. - Hi.
Yeah, when your buddy brought in those watches,
I thought they were stolen. I got a little worried.
Yeah, no, no, they weren't... They weren't stolen.
Yeah, I know. Sye told me, you won them at a casino.
That's awesome, man.
Yeah, yeah. I guess I just got lucky, huh.
Wish I was that lucky.
So, what can I do for you?
Boom!
Where'd you get this?
His grandmother passed away and left it for him.
It was a sad day.
Well, I think I'm going to have to see that certificate of authenticity.
(CHUCKLES)
I don't have a certificate of authenticity.
(LAUGHING)
Won them at a casino, huh?
- Really? What are you guys, like, 10? - SYE: Oh!
What's next?
I'm thinking of going to school.
What? Why do you wanna go to school?
You don't need school. You're too smart for school.
Well, you know, it just seems like the right thing to do.
All right, it's your call.
But I got a feeling that you're gonna be calling me.
That's your half.
- See you later. - See you, man.
(FOOTSTEPS IN DISTANCE)
Hey!
All I want is five minutes, okay?
I know there's somebody there. I just heard you.
Can I just have five minutes on the Internet, please?
I've been asking for a while now
and I really... I wouldn't mind.
I really wouldn't mind if I could just have... Just five minutes.
Five minutes is... (STUTTERING) Is not a very long time!
Five minutes on the Internet.
How fucking hard can it be?
How many times do I have to ask?
I can fucking hear you. I can hear you walking around.
Can you at least say something?
Just say no! Tell me no!
But don't fucking say nothing!
REPORTER ON TV: The criminal mastermind behind last night's
cyberattack on the World Bank
has claimed responsibility for what he calls "an act of justice. "
Now, no money was touched,
but authorities say the breach in security was substantial.
(DISTORTED) The banks of this world have enslaved their citizens
and then quietly stand back
and let the people suffer under the weight of their debts.
That is not the fault of the people.
It is the manufactured sin of the bank.
A drug addict makes a mistake,
but the drug dealer commits the crime.
Banks and bankers, watch your backs.
DarkWeb is coming after you.
ALEX: I thought about these words
and realized a university life wasn't for me.
Hey.
If you haven't bought all your books yet,
these'll save you a few bucks.
ALEX: So I called up Sye.
I told him I wanted to try something bigger,
something that DarkWeb was known for.
Forums had a blacklist of corrupt bankers
who were going to get punished.
But we needed to get into their wallets,
because their online information was highly protected.
I think I got some friends that could help.
You know, I'm sure it'll surprise you,
but the single most important people that I get to know,
people in the service industry.
Anybody that knows anybody, right?
Those are the people who are going to help you get to the people
that are staying there at the hotel or at the restaurant.
These are the people that you need to know.
ALEX: Like I said, these bankers were all corrupt.
DarkWeb wanted to punish them,
so I wanted to pitch in to fight for the cause.
(CELL PHONE CHIMES)
Just got another one. I'm going to send it to you.
ALEX: And of course, I couldn't have done it without Sye.
He knew a lot of people in a lot of different places.
Hey, Chavez. How you doing, man?
(DANCE MUSIC PLAYING)
Boys.
(LAUGHING) Robin, come to me, you saucy little minx, you.
Where have you been all my life?
Well, you never come around anymore.
Thought you started playing for the other team.
(LAUGHS) Very funny. Robin, this is my friend, Alex.
Alex has never been to a strip club before.
You're not missing anything, sweetie.
So, remember that fat-cat banker I was talking to you about?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
He comes in here all the time, so no problem.
I'll get one of the girls to work him.
So, I have something else for you.
This guy comes in last night. He's with a bunch of people.
They're throwing money around. Think he was Colombian.
Anyways, everything was fine,
the girls were making money.
But then he tried to force himself on one of the girls,
so I stepped in.
Anyways, he left his card here.
None of us were so keen on giving it back to him, so there you go.
Hmm.
Holy shit, that's an infinity.
SYE: What does that mean?
Means it's got a shitload of money on it.
We can use it at stores.
Knock yourselves out, boys.
Wait. Whoa! How much money you want for it?
Nothing. It's a gift.
Just make sure you punish that asshole.
I love you.
I love her.
No.
What?
We can't take money off that card. It's too dangerous.
What are you talking about? I wasn't even...
All right, look, man. It is easy money. You said so yourself.
It's got a shit-ton of money on it, right?
Yeah, but...
So, what's $20,000, $30,000 to this guy, huh?
So, we'll just, you know, get a fake ID,
put on a disguise, go to the bank. Boom!
And then we will never touch it again.
I promise.
SYE: I should be the one going in there.
I look way more Colombian than you do.
Just don't stress me out, man. Come on.
Well, maybe you're right. Maybe this isn't a good idea.
What if the guy already reported the card stolen?
I'm already checking.
What? What are you doing?
I'm using the card to buy a song.
It only costs 99 cents, but if it works,
that means we know the card's still working.
Okay, done. It works.
All right, you sure you want to do this?
All right. Now, you got to be confident, all right?
Don't mess with your clothes.
Just act like you belong, all right?
- Okay. - And this rental was really expensive
so you better make it worth it.
I got it, I got it.
No pressure.
(SIGHS)
- Go, go, go, go! Drive! Drive! - What happened? What happened?
Relax. We're in the money.
(LAUGHING)
- (LAUGHING) - Whoo!
(TIRES SQUEAL)
Drop
I want a piece of you
You got that Va-Va-voom
I like the way you shake it
Make me feel z-z-z-zoom
I want a piece of you
You got me losing screws
And I'm imagining
The wicked things I'd do to you
I got the red rum
I'll do you till you're dumb
I'll drink you down, down, down
Till you come undone
You got the voodoo
I got a new tattoo
You Mr. Black Magic
Pop it till you hit the moon
I'm feeling primitive
Drop, kick, can you handle it?
Drop, drop, drop, drop
Drop
(GROANS)
(GROANING)
Where's the girl?
Hmm?
I thought you guys were making out last night.
Drunk?
So, did you, um...
Look, man, I'm trying to work right now, okay? Can you not?
(HUFFS)
ALEX: The bank that fired my mom and owned the mortgage on our house
ended up on the vulnerable list.
And I wanted to find a way to kick them in the balls.
Hey, Sye, you think you could help me with a job?
I want to cause a little chaos in the bank.
I want to do something that'll disrupt their system,
stall them for weeks.
Something that'll make them close their doors.
Sounds good, but I don't get it.
Where are we making our money?
It's not always about the money, Sye.
All right, this time, it's about payback.
- What do you need me to do? - Well...
You look good. Confidence. Not too confident.
Yep. Yep.
- Remember, confidence. - Yeah, yeah. Right.
ALEX: I'll go into the bank and pretend to be a new client.
I've already been inside, so I know where I need to sit.
Just before lunch, I'll go in as though I'm asking for a loan.
The only thing is, I need to chat up this banker girl.
And that's where you come in.
Hi. Can I help you?
Can you do a British accent?
Uh, probably.
If you can, do a British accent.
Why?
Chicks love it. She'll fall for it on the spot.
You sure?
Works every time, mate.
(IN BRITISH ACCENT) I'd like to inquire about a loan for a small business.
Oh, okay. So that would be a commercial loan?
Yes.
- Do you have an account with us already? - Uh, no.
Okay, so we have a couple of different products I can talk to you about.
So, why don't I get some basic information from you.
You know what I just noticed? You have the most beautifully symmetrical facial features.
It's really... You'd be great in movies.
Oh.
You know, actually, I have a director friend
who would be happy to audition you for his next film.
Oh. (CHUCKLES)
(CHUCKLES) Just crossed my mind, you know?
Okay. Can I get your name from you?
Yeah, sure. Yeah.
I'm so sorry.
- No, that's okay. Don't worry about it. - No, no, no.
You really have a lot of pens.
(CHUCKLES)
- Sorry. - That's fine.
Why don't I try to open an account for you?
Sure.
Let me just, uh, type the date in.
Oh!
That's strange. That's weird.
There seems to be a problem.
- Something wrong? - There's a problem here.
Um...
- That is strange. - (GROANS)
Don't know what that's all about.
Looks like it's lunchtime for you, so I might...
I can go and I can come back later.
Yeah, that sounds like a good idea.
- Good luck. - Carol.
Carol, there's something wrong. There's...
ALEX: And then, once I'm done,
I'm going to quietly walk out of the bank and head to the car,
and no one will suspect a thing.
(ENGINE STARTING)
Sir. Excuse me, sir.
ALEX: Fuck.
Excuse me. Can you come with us?
What's wrong?
We have a small security issue.
Oh, that's terrible. What kind of security issue?
Won't take very long. Please, come with us.
SYE: Hey! Hey!
Excuse me!
Excuse me! Officer!
Alex and Sye.
I appreciate your patience.
I'm head of security at this bank.
Oh, actually, Sye, you can leave. Thank you.
I think I'm going to stay with my friend.
Yeah, absolutely not.
(IN REGULAR ACCENT) Sye, it's okay, I got this.
I got this.
Um...
Mmm-hmm.
Huh!
That's a pretty cool little thing you got here.
Did you make it yourself?
I'm not saying anything without a lawyer.
Well, first of all, you don't have a lawyer, and you can't afford one.
Secondly, I'm not the police,
so you can open right up with me.
Did you make this yourself?
I wrote the software.
Ah!
Not bad for a young kid. Where'd you get it?
Online.
Where online?
We're going to charge you with breaking and entering,
cyberterrorism, and conspiracy to commit credit card fraud
on the federal level.
You're looking at five to ten years in prison,
and you will not be allowed to touch another computer again
for the rest of your life.
I mean, of course,
unless you want to tell me where you bought this.
Fine. Then I will call the police.
Hey, sir, can I ask your name?
Curtis.
Is that your first or your last name?
Both.
Okay, Mr. Curtis, can you put the phone down for a second, please?
You have exactly one minute.
Look, this was just a prank, okay?
I wasn't trying to steal anything.
Your security system is awful.
Firewall's outdated.
The software that I created was able to put a virus in the system very easily.
I mean, it doesn't look good for you
that an 18-year-old was able to break into the bank
and steal all this information.
I mean, a bank like this should be more secure.
Okay.
Okay, well, what I'm suggesting is, uh...
You let me upgrade the software for free.
You can tell everyone that,
you know, that you had a security test
and you brought me in to fix the problem.
Bank will look bulletproof,
your bosses will be thanking you,
and in exchange, all I ask is that you let my friend and I
just, uh, walk out of here,
and we can all pretend like none of this ever happened.
Does that seem fair?
What the hell happened in there? Why'd they let you go?
- What'd you tell them? - I told them I wouldn't do it again.
- They let me go. - Wait. That's it? That's all you said?
Yeah. Thought you'd be happy.
It just seems a little bit too easy, that's all.
You are obviously very good at what you do.
So if you'd like to get out of here early and have a clean record...
We have a job for you.
We have a guy who we think can help us get closer to him.
(COMPUTER CHIMES)
(CONTINUES CHIMING)
No way. Sye. Sye.
- Sye, wake up, man. Hey. - (GROANS)
Look at this. I just got a like from Zed.
You like who?
No, no, Zed. The guy I told you about.
He just sent me a like. Look at that.
(GROANS) I'm happy for you.
(SIGHS)
(CHUCKLES)
SYE: Dude, you're famous.
Huh? What? Hey, what are you doing, man?
I just got you a date.
What the hell?
What? She wants to meet up with you.
She said she's got some ideas
on how you guys can work together. Cute, right?
What, you set me up on, like, a date with a random stranger?
I mean, we got to lay low, man.
No, you need to get laid.
- (CHUCKLES) - I mean, come on.
What's the worst that could happen?
So, uh, you're Kira, huh?
Yeah, but it's not my real name.
Where are you from?
I don't give out my personal information.
Okay. (CHUCKLES) Then what are we supposed to talk about?
Where are you from?
I'm from London.
I don't hear an accent.
London, Ontario.
Really? That sucks. (LAUGHS)
(CHUCKLES) Thank you. Thanks.
Um, so, when's your birthday?
It's the 23rd of June, 1993.
- See? You're an idiot. - Excuse me?
I know your name, where you're from, and your birth date.
With that information, I could steal your identity and ruin your life.
It'd be a shame for someone like you to go down like that.
Someone like me?
I mean, you might as well tell me what your mother's maiden name is
or her occupation.
She doesn't have one.
That's rough.
Yeah, I mean, she's... She's tied to our house with...
You know, mortgaged by the bank
that fired her a little while ago,
and they know she couldn't even afford it if she had the job.
They say, "The drug addict makes the mistake,
"but the drug dealer commits the crime."
Did you just quote Zed?
Yeah, I did.
Do you follow him?
Well, yeah, doesn't everybody?
No. Most people are in it for the money.
So, have you met him?
Um...
I almost met him.
"Almost"? What does that mean?
If you want to meet Zed,
you have to do something big.
(CELL PHONE RINGING)
Are you going to answer that?
Yeah. Sorry.
- Yeah. - Are you banging her yet?
- I... - (LAUGHS)
No, hey, I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding. Just kidding.
Listen. I've got an idea.
Uh-huh? Okay, what is it?
What if we ask if she wants to work with us?
You sure that's a good idea? I mean, we just met her.
I mean, all that shit she was writing to me on the computer
about credit card printers and bitcoins.
I mean, no offense, but she knows more than you do.
And if we're going to keep growing, get bigger,
a girl can always help.
I mean, alone, we're just two dudes,
but she can be a girlfriend, a distraction, a decoy.
Look, listen. You trust me, right?
Just ask her if she wants to work with us.
All right. Yeah. I'll call you back, all right?
Hey, hey, ask her.
(BEEPS)
- So... - Uh, I was thinking...
(CHUCKLES) Sorry, you go.
Um, no, you go.
I mean, I was just wondering if you
were working with anybody right now.
That's funny, because I was going to ask if you wanted to work together.
ALEX: We got pretty carried away with Kira.
First thing she did was make us buy a credit card printer.
I have a couple thousand blank cards I picked up in Thailand.
We can stamp them in here and sell them on the DarkWeb,
or we can use them in stores.
And this is how we can get credit card information.
Here is where the cards come out.
All you have to do is choose your picture over here.
Look at you two lovebirds.
- (SCOFFS) - (INDISTINCT)
ALEX: We used our old crew to get the credit card numbers,
and we'd print the duplicates,
hide them in magazines, and ship them to buyers all around the world.
(SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY)
ALEX: Then she got us using bitcoins.
This was digital currency that was pretty much untraceable,
and people used it to pay us for the credit cards.
Then she introduced me to Onion browsing.
Apparently, you could buy an atom bomb on there, and no one could trace it.
And then, she proved to be useful in a very practical way.
Like it, sweetie?
We'll take it. Thank you.
ALEX: Kira basically upgraded us.
She managed to find targets with much bigger wallets.
That's how we were able to afford big, expensive toys.
She used a social media site called Mobli
to advertise our products to our buyers.
Why do you keep taking the pictures?
My clients need to know what I'm selling.
Having fun? Great. When do I get to buy something?
SYE: (IN RUSSIAN ACCENT) Finding the right car
is like finding the right woman.
You want to get inside her several times a day,
show her off to your friends, but never let them touch her.
MAN: Then you've come to the right place.
Ah!
It just all depends how much you want to spend on the wedding.
Oh, depends. What kind of girl?
Italian.
Ah!
(ENGINE REVVING)
You like her, boss?
Never been kissed.
(TIRES SQUEALING)
(DOORBELL RINGING)
SYE: Wow.
I sold the watches.
That's great.
Why didn't you let us know?
Just wanted to take some initiative.
That's awesome. That is awesome.
Oh, and I found someone to buy the diamond ring.
ALEX: When it came time to sell, Kira was surprisingly good.
AGENT: You're gonna help him make money
and we're gonna organize everything.
And if anyone ever gets suspicious,
you just refer to me as your uncle.
Bye.
I thought you stopped smoking.
Yeah, I did.
Where do you find these guys?
My uncle helped me.
I usually give him a piece of my cut.
Then we're going to have to meet him.
If he's going to be working with us.
Um...
Well, he really just works with me,
so we don't have to include him.
As long as that's okay with you guys.
Shouldn't be a problem. You don't mind, right, Sye?
I don't, Alex.
I don't mind at all.
- You all right, man? - Yeah. Yeah, I'm fine.
Yeah?
It seems like something's bugging you.
Look, if you don't want to work with her, we don't have to.
I don't know.
Just seems like she has all these buyers
that don't even haggle with her.
And how the fuck does she know these people?
Is she fucking them?
Or her uncle's helping her.
Okay. Then why does she need us, huh?
She seems to be doing just fine on her own.
My gut's telling me something's up here.
Maybe your gut's gotten a little jealous
because she can do what you can do.
(BOTH CHUCKLING)
You're joking, right?
ALEX: I don't know. I mean, it just seems like
you're a little off on this one, you know?
KIRA: Hoo!
And they gave me a 10% tip.
Why?
- What, you give them a tug? - Dude, don't be like that.
AGENT: You're gonna need to get him to Hong Kong.
Once you're there, you'll need to push the ATM operation on him
so that Zed notices you.
KIRA: What if he doesn't fall for it?
AGENT: We'll scare him into leaving.
I think we should move to Hong Kong.
Why, what's in Hong Kong?
Well, remember, I told you,
there's a lot of action happening there.
I think you and I could do really well there if we tried.
Seriously.
Hong Kong is the place to be for people like us right now.
Sye could keep running some deals here, but...
You and I should go.
If only for a little while.
I can't just get up and go, especially without Sye.
He's like my best friend.
Can't just leave him here.
Well, think about it.
SYE: This is a fucking stupid idea.
ALEX: Look, you need to calm down, okay?
SYE: Are you fucking serious right now?
You're making everybody tense.
You're fucking supposed to be tense.
Look, it's a dumb idea walking into this meeting.
How do you know?
Because they're buying a shitload.
And unlike Miss Fancy-pants,
we don't know who the fuck they are.
Why does that matter, though? They're buying.
It matters because... (GROANS) God. Jesus, Alex.
You're not thinking. All right?
Look, we got a good thing going here, man.
I don't want to screw it up.
All right, I've been watching her. Something's not right.
I can't put my finger on it, so I'm telling you,
that fucking girl is putting us under too much risk.
We'll go in, we'll evaluate the situation.
If we can sell it all, then we'll sell it all. But if we can't,
it won't matter because we can just sell them all individually.
Huh?
- It's not... - KIRA: Alex.
Everything looks good. We'd be happy to make a deal.
Well, of course, I share your opinion that it looks good.
And I would love to make a deal.
But I'd like to know...
What's your real commitment?
Honestly, how many of these things do you want to buy today, hmm?
A few? Half? How many?
Because our principle of business is based on trust,
because without trust, you can't have business.
And, of course, I want to become trustworthy,
so I don't want you to feel like
you got to buy everything today.
You know, you're welcome to just take a few pieces
and then come back for more.
Actually, no. My partner's mistaken.
There is no negotiating here.
Either you buy everything in that truck,
or we walk and find another buyer.
That's our deal.
- Take it or leave it. - What the fuck are you doing?
I'm selling because, clearly, you're not man enough to do it yourself.
This is the biggest deal we've ever had.
I'm not gonna let you ruin this.
Okay, why don't you just back off and let the adults deal with this?
I will not back off
because you're about to ruin this deal with that fat little mouth of yours.
What makes you feel like you can talk to me like that?
I'm protecting my interests! My money paid for the stuff just as much as yours did.
Yeah. So where did you find these guys, huh?
Not a single one of them seems to know who you are,
so where'd you find them, huh?
Look, Sye, it's her uncle, all right? It's fine.
- Just let her handle it. - God, this fucking uncle.
What are you, taking her side? No, hey, hey, hey.
She brings in these sketchy-ass buyers
who, as far as we know, might be cops.
The buyers are not cops.
How the fuck do you know, huh?
God, you're all so fucking sure of yourself.
You need to calm the fuck down.
All you ever do is talk!
Yeah, I'll talk all I want to, sweetheart,
because I've been doing this a lot longer than you have.
Okay, why don't we just make a deal, guys?
No, there's not gonna be a deal with this fucking girl here!
MAN: Is there a problem here?
No. There's no problem.
- Get your fucking hands off me! - (GUN COCKS)
SYE: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
Okay, look, we don't want any trouble, okay? So let's just make the deal.
- No deal. - Okay, that's fine.
SYE: All right. All right. We'll go.
Stop being pussies.
We are making this deal right now.
You are gonna buy everything in that truck...
All right, Sye, Kira, I need you to just shut the fuck up right now, okay?
It's fine. No deal. You walk, we'll walk.
We can make a deal another time, okay?
A deal is off the table for good now.
If we ever see you again, if you deal with anyone that we know...
We will not be as pleasant as we were today.
Let's go.
That was pleasant?
- Good job, Sye. - Fuck off!
Did you have to be so up in his face?
KIRA: These are my contacts.
You guys are ruining all of my contacts.
What a waste of my time.
Fuck!
That was a fucking mess.
You guys either need to get along or we all go our separate ways,
because I don't want to get shot,
and I'm pretty sure you guys don't either.
So, Sye, you got to relax.
I mean, if she thinks she can handle something,
you got to give her a chance, man.
Sorry.
(SCOFFS) Yeah, whatever.
ALEX: Sye.
Fine. I'm sorry.
(SIREN WAILING)
There's cops at our truck.
We've got to get out of here.
That was really close. (SIGHS)
Why'd he just leave like that?
KIRA: Who cares? He's gone.
Okay, guys, I've been thinking about what happened today,
and I think it's a sign for us to move somewhere else.
KIRA: He's right.
Those buyers could actually come after us.
They're all mobbed up.
"All mobbed up"?
You hooked us up with mobbed-up buyers?
What the fuck is wrong with you?
That doesn't matter anymore
because we're going to get out of the city.
Okay, then, where are we going to go?
How about Hong Kong?
ALEX: So Hong Kong became our new home.
This is nice.
Yeah, it's beautiful.
Eh, it's all right.
Seriously?
What? It's a fucking hotel room.
I'm gonna find the minibar.
ALEX: We also got ourselves a quiet place where we could work.
Here, we kept all of our gear and our money.
Thank you.
ALEX: We'll take them.
All of them.
SYE: I want you to appreciate the quality
of the product that I'm bringing to you.
How much?
- Two hundred. - For you.
Thank you very much. A pleasure doing business.
Please, sign here.
ALEX: Anytime we used a card,
we always did a test-purchase online
to make sure the card wasn't blocked.
We had hundreds of credit cards,
and it was hard to keep track of them,
so we got ourselves a pick-up.
Uh, um...
Sorry, sir.
(MAN SPEAKING CANTONESE)
Go, go, go, go!
ALEX: A pick-up was when a card would get canceled,
and if a duplicate was used,
the terminal would recognize that it's a fake
and would warn the cashier to hold the card
and call the cops.
We took that risk whenever we didn't test a card.
Jeez, would you quit with the computer already?
We still get buyers off Mobli.
I feel like we're not getting anywhere.
It's not like we're sending anyone a message
or hurting the system.
We're just making money.
So what do you want to do?
I don't know. We just got to... We got to step our game up.
We got to do something that's big, something that'll hurt.
Well, I was thinking...
(GROANS)
We should be celebrating.
Celebrating what?
It's my birthday.
Ah.
(DANCE MUSIC PLAYING)
KIRA: So, I think I officially hate clubs.
Yeah. Yeah, too many people, too loud, you know?
So, what do you think?
I can't believe we forgot his birthday.
We got to get him something.
No, Alex, I was talking about the ATMs.
That's my girl, not yours!
She doesn't want to be with you.
I paid for her the whole night!
I paid her three times as much, so fuck off!
You can't afford her anymore.
Oh, shit.
Jesus, Sye, come on.
- (SYE GRUNTING) - (ALL CLAMORING)
Sye!
ALEX: Calm down, buddy! Calm down, calm down!
(MAN SPEAKING CANTONESE)
Shut the fuck up!
(CONTINUES SPEAKING CANTONESE)
(GROANS)
I'm sorry, man.
Hey.
Look, I know. I fucked up.
Okay.
I get it.
Andrew Smith, Eric DuPere.
Come out.
What happened? What's going on?
My uncle.
Where's Sye?
I don't know. He was gone when I woke up.
(SIGHS)
Listen, I think I have what we've been looking for.
Yeah, what's that?
ATMs.
What do you mean "ATMs"?
So, banks keep physical cash in vaults,
safety-deposit boxes, and ATMs.
Okay.
Wire fraud gets covered by insurance,
but if we knock a physical location,
then it's a question of security and reputation,
so the banks stand to lose a lot.
That is amazing.
Why have we been wasting our time with the other shit...
(SYE WHISTLING)
Check it. Check it. Check it.
You like?
How did you get that?
I did what I'm good at. I bought some things, I sold some things.
So don't say I don't got it anymore, 'cause I still got it.
And it's also an apology for yesterday.
Nice job, man.
KIRA: Yeah, way to go.
Oh. (LAUGHS)
And for old times' sake, look what card I used.
(SIGHS)
You fucking serious, Sye?
What?
You went out and used this fucking card?
Are you out of your mind?
What's the problem?
Well, for one, where's your fucking disguise, Sye?
Don't worry about it, it's not a big deal. I wore my sunglasses.
Sunglasses... (STUTTERS) That's great.
The problem is that we took money from this card, Sye!
You can't just go out and use it without a fucking disguise!
Do you not know they can find us?
Jesus, I was just trying to help.
Just like you helped yesterday, got us thrown in jail, huh?
I already told you I was sorry. What more do you want from me?
Nothing. I don't want anything from you anymore. You know why?
'Cause you've been acting like a dick lately,
you've been fucking everything up.
You don't trust Kira, you're drunk all the time.
And now you've gone and used the fucking card
that I specifically told you not to use again, Sye!
I think you should just go.
Just go back to Toronto, huh? 'Cause you're clearly not liking it here.
Wait, is this coming from her? Did she tell you to say this?
She didn't say shit. This is me, Sye.
This is me asking you to leave.
'Cause while you're here, we're gonna get fucking locked up
or we're gonna fucking die!
So you should just take your cut and go, huh.
Okay.
I'll pack my bags.
(CLATTERING)
(HUFFS)
I left my IDs in the drawer. Good luck with everything.
You know, this used to be fun.
(COMPUTER CHIMES)
234 Tak Man Street.
5052 Man Kwong Road.
It's busy, but you can take a lot.
(INAUDIBLE)
REPORTER ON TV: $2.3 million
was stolen across various ATMs in Hong Kong.
Authorities are at a loss as no one knows how this happened,
but we do have confirmation
that a notorious cybercriminal organization has claimed responsibility.
DarkWeb, the online mafia
controlled by international fugitive, Zed,
left their business cards at the scene of the crime.
POLICE OFFICER: Cybercrime was committed by DarkWeb,
and we won't stop until we find the people responsible...
To causing a little chaos.
REPORTER: World banks now fear for the safety of their assets...
So, we should probably, uh, pack up and get out of here tomorrow.
Whole city will be looking for us.
Yeah.
Everything okay?
Yeah, I'm fine.
Hey, come on. Look at me. What's on your mind?
I want to get out.
That's what we're doing. We're leaving.
No, I mean, I don't want to do this anymore.
I want to disappear.
"Disappear"? Where?
Anywhere. Let's just go.
With this money, if we invest it,
we don't have to worry about anything ever again.
Are you fucking serious right now?
Don't swear at me.
Okay. Look, I'm sorry, but that's...
That's fucking stupid, all right?
You just want to...
You want to leave all this behind,
and go live a boring old life, huh?
Would it really be that boring if it was just the two of us?
Yes. What the fuck would we do?
We would relax, enjoy life!
But for how long? Are you...
I mean, you're the one who said,
"We got to cause chaos and make some money."
Yeah, well, now that we've done that,
I think maybe we should relax for a minute.
Fuck that. Why do you want to leave? What's changed?
You.
I had a different plan for my life,
and now... It's just different.
Okay, well, you know, I appreciate that, but I...
I can't just drop this.
I mean, my parents almost lost everything
'cause of those fucking banks.
I'm going to punish all of them.
Those fuckers don't deserve to sit in their chairs
and rip people off every...
but only you gonna know
The depth of my soul
The depth of my soul...
(LAPTOP CHIMES)
Oh, my God. It's Zed.
It's done.
You have no idea what you're getting yourself into.
Okay. I don't fucking understand you.
You're the one who said we needed to get Zed's attention.
(CELL PHONE RINGING)
Yeah, I'm in Hong Kong.
Yeah, there's two of us.
Yeah.
Get out of the car, leave your stuff. He's gonna search you.
(WAND CLICKING)
(VENTILATOR HISSING)
You're probably wondering why I look like this.
Not many people know, and I like to keep it that way.
So, what brings you to Hong Kong?
Well, we almost got caught. Kira suggested we move here.
ZED: Why would you suggest that?
Because Hong Kong is the place to be for people like us.
Also we heard that maybe you'd be out here, too.
We wanted to meet you.
You wanted to meet me?
What made you think that you would even get my attention?
Well, we had a plan that could bring in a lot of money.
I don't care about money,
but I know that many people do.
Why do you need me?
Well, we need a lot of resources,
so the plan wouldn't work without you.
Okay.
Then, after you tell me, why do I need you?
'Cause we know how to get this job done.
I would have people to do that for me.
More than likely, even better.
Well, you know...
Well, sir, I believe you to be a man of principle.
So, if I come to you with an idea, and you like it,
I only hope that you'll let me see it through to the end.
Well, before you tell me what you're about to tell me,
I need you to understand who I am.
I am not your friend, I'm not your boss.
I am your owner.
If you work for me, you'd become my property,
and if you do your job right,
you could have anything you want.
But if you make a mistake, you will die.
So will your families, and so will all your friends.
So, if you wanna hold the ax,
make sure that you cut the head off clean.
Because with me, there won't be any mistakes.
ALEX: So, why didn't you say anything in there?
There's no limit to what he can do.
What the hell?
Got a missed call from Sye.
SYE: Hey, Alex, it's me.
I'm just... I'm really sorry about the way that things went down, and I just...
I've been thinking a lot,
and I just really want a chance to make it up to you and Kira.
Just go back to the way that things were.
So, I came back to the hotel, and I'm here right now,
and I'm just gonna wait for you till you get back, so, um...
(KNOCKING ON DOOR)
Oh! Maybe that's you right now.
What? Just wait. Wait, wait, wait, wait.
He's at the hotel.
- Really? - Yeah.
Sounds like he's feeling better.
Maybe we should go talk to him.
Maybe we should.
Sye?
Sye.
Fuck.
Fuck!
(KIRA SCREAMS)
ALEX: I'm gonna... I'll call the cops. I'll call the cops.
Alex, you cannot call the cops.
- Okay... I'll call the fucking ambulance. - Alex.
- I can... They can do something! - No, they can't, Alex.
- They'll come and... They can help him! - Nobody can!
- We can't leave him, Kira! - You know there's no helping him!
- There's no helping him right now, Alex. - Fuck you!
- I'm gonna call the ambulance. - Give me the phone!
- Fuck you. - Give me the phone!
KIRA: Ouch!
Stop. Stop!
Get up, Alex! We have to get out of here!
Come on. Please.
ALEX: The Colombian man who left his credit card
at the strip club in Toronto had been tracking us.
He missed the first transaction,
but he was ready for the second one.
If Sye hadn't come back,
Kira and I would have been dead.
ZED ON PHONE: There's a team waiting for you.
They'll do whatever you ask them to.
ALEX: Yeah, we're almost there.
ZED: I heard about what happened to your friend,
and I understand this must be hard for you,
but I want you to say to yourself,
"I will still get this fucking job done."
I'm still going to get this fucking job done.
Listen, I think after all this is done,
we should find a place to hide out.
Yeah, I agree. We should go back to Toronto.
No. We need to go as far away as possible.
I have an idea as to where we should meet.
REPORTER ON TV: You know, ever since the banks
started to suffer these cyberattacks,
the market has been shaky.
Fortunately, the Federal Reserve Chairman
started to put more money into the economy
and things have started to stabilize.
Better housing, less taxes.
More money for you, more money for me, more money for all of us.
AGENT: All we'll need is a paper trail
that shows that he financed the operation,
and that he knew about the market collapse.
We'll get him on insider trading and fraud.
I need a clean exit for me and Alex.
I will not do this if it means him getting arrested.
Do you understand me?
AGENT: Sure, but you can never see him again.
Where were you?
Just using my phone.
We're 15 away.
MAN: Are you sure, sir?
ZED: Yes, I'm sure, Mr. DiMayo.
Sir, each of these stock options
might not cost a lot right now,
but they're going to expire in half an hour, and they will be worthless.
You see, by opening up these positions,
you're betting that the market is essentially gonna crash.
I just want you to understand that, you know, my job...
Your job is to do exactly as I tell you.
And if I tell you to open, you will fucking open.
All right. Yes, sir.
They'll be up on your screen once we fill the orders.
I can't do this.
No, no, no, no. Look, look, look. Hey, hey, hey, hey.
ZED: What are these kids doing? Get back to your seats.
I think we should walk away.
What are you talking about?
Things are not right here. It's going to go badly.
Guys.
It's not going to go well.
They're almost there, guys.
I need you here, okay?
No, Alex, you don't need me here. You can do this yourself.
Okay, fine, fine. I want you here.
MAN: They're pulling up to the building.
Yes, I can fucking hear you!
All right, look, I don't want to do this without you.
Okay, after this, we can go, we can do whatever you want to do,
but now I really would like you here.
It's not that simple.
Kira, please, come on.
Guys, we really need you here right now.
Guys, here we go.
Sir, you have been responsible for bringing
the market back onto its feet...
(ALL GASPING)
(ALL SCREAMING)
Fuck, yeah!
(MAN LAUGHING)
(PEOPLE CLAPPING)
ZED: Are they ready? MAN ON PHONE: Yes, sir.
Begin.
We're just getting a breaking news alert.
We have some live breaking news.
We have a shot, right now, for you.
We're gonna go to the live shot right now.
There's been an incident with the Chairman of the Federal Reserve.
Tragic situation, and of course,
this is affecting the state
and the entire country as we wait with bated breath.
No confirmation on if he has been killed.
He was rushed to hospital.
The Chairman of the Federal Reserve
has just been shot outside the Federal Reserve building.
We have no idea where...
Pull all the positions.
Send the rest of the money to these accounts.
Twenty percent to Alex,
and the rest, you can divide up equally.
MAN: Sir, maybe we should wait until Monday so that the SEC...
Just do it.
Remember, Oz, money doesn't change anybody.
It only reveals them.
Let's see what our friend does with his money.
We need to get out of here.
ALEX: Yeah. Just one more second.
That's for Sye, asshole.
MAN: He's been what? Hold on.
Sir. The news says you've been killed.
Hello.
What the hell are you talking about?
How can I be dead if I'm talking to you?
REPORTER: And that's the closing bell.
After today's tragic incident,
the market witnessed a nosedive.
And by the looks of it, the SEC has ordered a stop
on all trading accounts until further notice.
It's unclear what this means for the economy,
but we can expect the fallout to last for a while.

ALEX: Both Kira's and Zed's phones were disconnected.
How was that possible? Who set us up?
Who were those guys that kidnapped me, Zed's people?
I didn't know, and I didn't know what to do.
I had to go and meet Kira in the one place
where she said no one would ever find us.
Well, can I have a single, please?
- Can I have your passport, please? - Yeah, yeah.
Do you have Internet?
The Internet doesn't work.
No? Okay.
- Your key. - Thank you.
Thanks.
Excuse me, what time is it?
- Sorry? - What time is it?
Oh.
Uh, 12:15.
Thank you. Thanks.
Excuse me, what time is it?
- Uh, ten to 3:00. - Okay. Thank you.
ALEX: I waited and waited for her, but she never showed up.
And in that moment, I remembered my parents.
I'd completely forgotten about them.

- Please leave a message. - (ANSWERING MACHINE BEEPS)
Hey, Mom, Dad. It's me, Alex.
I'm sorry I haven't called.
I'm sorry I kind of disappeared.
(CHUCKLES) Uh...
I'm going to be home in a few days. I promise.
Yeah, I miss you.
Okay, bye.
Alex.
Hi. I need to use the Internet.
Okay, you pay first.
Yeah.
You take card, right?
You go there, number five.

(SPEAKING THAI)
Days after the staged account
on the Chairman of the Federal Reserve,
the stock markets are finally up and running again.
The authorities apprehended those responsible for the attack.
The notorious computer hacker, Zed, has been taken into custody,
and will be charged with over five-dozen counts of wire fraud,
as well as charges of insider trading,
tax evasion, and terrorism.
The authorities have also shed light
on Zed's partner in crime, Kira Whittal.
Now, she's been with Zed's outfit from the very start.
She was shot dead while attempting to flee from federal agents.
Police were compelled to use deadly force
when Whittal opened fire.
ALEX: How is that possible?
REPORTER: And finally, a third conspirator was arrested this morning.
A Colombian businessman known as Alfonso Regalo
was apprehended when it was found
that his money financed the operation.
ALEX: No, she couldn't be dead.
She must have left a clue for me on her page.
Mobli. Okay.
(SPEAKING THAI)
Excuse me. I'm not connected. Can you reconnect me, please?
- Can you connect... - Hey, you.
Your papers. You.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
(WOMAN CONTINUES SPEAKING THAI)
Can you... Five minutes. Five more minutes.
- Can you put me back online? - No.
No, no, it's very important. Just go and press the button.
Five minutes. I just need five...
What's "five minutes" in Thai?
- Please. - Please come with us.
I just need to... I need to talk to...
I just need to talk to... No, no, no. Please, no, no, no. No, no!
You don't understand.
I need five minutes. Five. Just five. Just five. I need to talk to somebody.
I just need five fucking minutes!
Can you please give me five minutes?
No, no, no, no. Listen. Just listen.
If you'd just hear me out.
Please. Come on. You understand English?
Can you stop for a second, please? Can you stop for a second?
ALEX: Somewhere deep inside,
I'd hoped that Kira was still alive, and that she'd find me.
But with every day that went by, I lost hope.
And then, after two years, I was released.
(SPEAKING THAI)
ALEX: I received a royal pardon.
I could hardly believe it 'cause I was released under my fake name,
but the important thing was...
Furlong, you're free to go.
ALEX:... I was free.
(HORN HONKING)
Hi.
Hello.
How are you here?
Well...
