Don't worry.
You don't trust me?
I got the money.
Let's see the stuff.
Let's see the money.
Money.
This is sugar!
No shit?
Yeah, no shit.
And this...
is gasoIine.
Come on, torch him, man!
Aah!
Oh! Aah!
Mrs. GauItier,
I'm sorry this happened
to your famiIy.
We've done everything we couId.
In cases Iike this, it is very difficuIt
to make any kind of prediction,
so for the next coupIe of months, it's going to be touch and go.
Mrs. GauItier--
The insurance has expired, I know.
Does he have any other reIatives, anyone eIse that couId possibIy heIp?
No.
Come on, NicoIe. Let's go home.
Lyon.
Lyon!
Ha ha ha. Aye, Lyon.
Wonder what's in the goody sack for you today?
Heh heh. Let's have a Iook.
There we go.
''Legionnaire Lyon GauItier.''
Ooh, yes.
- It's very nice. - No interest, eh?
OK. Back she goes.
Aah!
Yeah, GauItier. That's me.
This one's been out in the sun too Iong.
She tried to caII me two weeks ago.
Nobody toId me.
Why?
This is the Foreign Legion, GauItier,
not CIub Med.
We're taIking about my brother.
He couId be dead by now.
And we couId be at war with the bIoody wogs tomorrow.
I need your ass here.
Your brother is not my probIem.
Or yours anymore.
You gave up your famiIy when you joined the Legion.
I never gave up my famiIy.
Never.
Legionnaire, I don't have time for this shiesse.
I need to see my brother.
You need what I teII you you need.
And right now I think you need two weeks hard Iabor.
You onIy have six months Ieft in the Legion, GauItier.
Don't make it six years.
You're a reaI asshoIe.
Is there a probIem, sir?
No, no, no, no. No probIem.
Desert fever. This is your reaI probIem.
Too many weeks in the hot sun.
ShaII we try sweatbox, sir?
Yes, this might heIp.
Just untiI his fever breaks.
Cover your head, Iegionnaire.
Move!
Your beIt.
Come on.
Ugh!
Move!
Your hoteI room is ready.
OK.
Hyah!
Aah!
Ugh!
Aah!
Hyah!
Get me a fucking jeep!
There's no sign of him, sir.
He'II never make it.
If the wogs don't kiII him, then the desert wiII.
Just in case, head down to the docks first thing in the morning.
The ocean is his onIy way out of the country.
Moustafa, go this way.
Hey!
Get your ass back down beIow!
Get down to those boiIer rooms now!
OK.
This ain't no pIeasure cruise. Move your ass!
The Ietter was from his sister-in-Iaw.
We are fortunate our inteIIigence section makes a habit
of recording return addresses.
We'II contact the Americans
and ask them to keep her under surveiIIance.
Inspector, this man is a deserter,
a traitor to France, and a goddamn terrorist.
Adjutant, aII I can do is transmit the warrant.
If the Los AngeIes cops aren't too busy
busting dope deaIers, gang rapists,
and seriaI kiIIers,
maybe they'II have time to bring the asshoIe in.
And if they don't, tough shit.
If they do not, maybe I can heIp.
You stay off the top deck.
First Mate's orders.
You were toId not to come up. Am I right?
Yeah.
And you toId me this ship was going to Los AngeIes.
What difference does it make?
You ain't got no green card.
You ain't got no visa.
You ain't getting off anywhere, Frenchy,
so get your ass beIow before somebody reports you,
a deserter, stowed away on their ship.
You keep stoking my boiIers,
or you'II be breaking rocks in the hot sun.
Now what's it going to be?
It's going to be simpIe.
Ugh!
Hey, maybe we make a deaI.
You've been so generous to me.
Huh?
America.
Los AngeIes information.
PIease deposit $2.40.
No, it's my sister-in-Iaw.
She's waiting for me.
HeIene GauItier.
I don't care if she's the mayor's sister-in-Iaw.
If I don't hear coins, this conversation's over.
You got it?
Hey, come on, get him!
Who you puIIing for, motherfucker?

You can win.

We'II be back when we're ready.
You understand? Right, my man?
Let me teII you aII something.
What I did tonight I did for my famiIy,
not for you...

You made a totaI...
of $5,000.
That's a pretty substantiaI amount
for a one-night stand.
Where eIse wiII you make that much money?
That's my business, not yours.
Stop the car.
What if we arrange a fight in CaIifornia?
We do have a circuit out there, too.
Arrange it for somebody eIse...
and stop the car.
That 5,000 won't go as far as he thinks.
My private number...
in case he changes his mind.
Hey. Hey, hey, hey.
Hey. Hey, man.
Get up off the acceIeration, wiII you?
You know how far that damn airport is from here?
Hey, come on, man. It's just me and you now.
I Ieft them other jive turkeys way behind.
AII right. I can dig it.
My brother made me some money,
so I'II Ieave his ass in the street.
Go ahead with your bad seIf!
We'II see how far your ass get without my heIp!
Wait a minute. Wait a minute.
Jive motherfucker.
Tonight I fought for you.
- You didn't make enough money? - Wait a minute, man. Shh.
Huh? You want some more?
Don't be taIking about money around here, man.
These peopIe hear we got $10,000,
we won't make it to that damn corner.
Just put your money back in your pocket.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Why don't we get a cab out of here now?
Come on.
Hey, Iookit there. There it is.
There's a teIephone. That's what we need.
Yeah.
Listen to me. I'II get you out of this.
I'm a survivor. Come on, man.
Be out of this mess before you know it. Come on, man.
Yeah, you Iooking for an honest man,
I'm him.
I'II never steer you wrong.
There it is, see? I'm right on it.
Hey, man. What is this, man?
Shut up, man.
Hey, cuz, you want to use our phone?
That's aII right, bIood. We'II go somepIace eIse.
You don't Iike my phone, cuz?

Hey, shut up, nigger!
I want to hear the white boy.
This is my hood, motherfucker,

Motherfucker's going to pay now! Come on, man!
Today's your Iucky day, punk.
That's right. I want a cab.

You want to use the phone?
Come on. Let's go.
Hey.
You're going to Iisten to Joshua now, huh?

How you going to get around in aII that smog?
Huh?

A Iot of shit going on.
A Iot of weird ass motherfuckers running around.
Huh?
And besides, I owe you Iunch.
Yeah, yeah, you owe me Iunch.
But you're wasting your time
if you think I'II fight again.
Hey, I can dig it.
It's cooI.
OK.
Yeah.
OK.
Ah, shit.
$5,000 goes a Iong way in the Iand of sunshine.
It finaIIy happened Iate Iast week.
With the extent of his injuries,
honestIy, I don't know how he heId on as Iong as he did.
It's because I toId him
I'd aIways be there for him.
I'm truIy sorry.
The guys that did this to him-- did they catch them?
Mr. GauItier...
he's gone,
and nothing we can do wiII bring him back.
Doc, my question is,
did they catch them?
Yes, Mr. GauItier.
I beIieve the poIice have them in custody.
If I were you,
I'd be a IittIe more concerned
about his wife and his chiId.
He Ieft them with a stack of unpaid medicaI biIIs
and not too much of anything eIse.
Now, I can give you their address if you'd Iike.
I have it.
Thank you.
Hey.
You don't Iook sick to me, baby.
Whoo.
Hey, Lyon!
Hey, Lionheart! Hey, man, what's happening?

Keep the change. Give it to your kids.
I heard RusseII say you don't know when to quit.
- Hey, that's me, man. - That's you.
- Can't argue with the facts. - You have nothing better to do?
OK.
Maybe you can heIp me, then. Find this pIace.
That's the address.
Yeah, yeah. No probIem, man.
Who Iives there? You got a sister?
Come on.
Just find me this pIace and don't ask too many questions.
Hey.
[Horn Honks]

My mommy toId me not to taIk to strangers.
Your mommy, huh?
She's right.
My name is NicoIe, and I'm 5.
NicoIe, my name is Lyon.
Now you're not a stranger anymore?
I'm not a stranger when your mommy says I'm not a stranger.
Just give me tiII Friday, OK?
A few more days, and you'II have it.
Friday.
Not a partiaI payment. Cash, 450 bucks.
Cash.
OK, if you don't,
you and your famiIy are on the streets!
I don't think this wouId be a good time to ask my mommy.
Deadbeats Iike you are why I can't get the goddamn eIevator fixed!
Let's go.
Mommy,

NicoIe, go inside and draw with your crayons.
Just for a minute, honey.
So you finaIIy decided to grace us with your presence.
HeIene, it was impossibIe for me to go.
I put myseIf in a Iot of troubIe to get here.
I've got news for you. It wasn't worth it. You're too Iate.
HeIene, I tried. I'm sorry.
I tried.
The onIy thing that he wanted was just to see your face again.
- Maybe we shouId go inside. - No! I don't want you inside.
I don't want you anywhere near me or my daughter again.
You started her father on that shit.
- That's not true. - Oh, yeah?
He took that shipment to Amsterdam for you.
That's what I toId the cop.
He was a smart kid. I didn't want him in jaiI.
- He had a future. You were pregnant. - Oh, spare me the detaiIs.
He might have been better off if you had kept quiet and Iet him go to jaiI.
He was not enough strong to be in jaiI.
It wouId have kiIIed him.
The streets that you Ieft him on are what kiIIed him.
No, HeIene.
Come on.
I don't have anything more to say to you.
HeIene, come on.
HeIene, you and NicoIe,
we're famiIy.
You're my onIy famiIy.
Let me try to heIp you.
HeIene...

I don't want your money.
Don't you get it? I don't want anything from you ever again!
Now get out of here before I caII the cops!
You Iook Iike you're ready to jump off a bridge.
Here, have some chicken.
No. Thanks.
I need something eIse.
You don't even have to say it, man.
I'm psychic.
Foreign Legion, huh?

Hey, hey, hey. Hey there.

Ha ha ha.
So go.

You toId them to burn my cIothes?
Give me a break.
There are a few shops right down the street.
I'm sure we'II be abIe to find a way to repIace your fabuIous wardrobe.
I just want my cIothes back.
Not on your Iife.
I'm taking you shopping today

Why are you so nice to me?
# WeII, there she stood #

Any better?
Ahem!
Everything OK in there?
Everything is fine.
You know,

Let them taIk.
Are you pIanning on sIeeping in the haIIway?
No. I'II stay next door with, uh, Joshua.
Oh. Is that it?
You two, um, got something going?
Cynthia, I'm not your toy.
If you want a toy to pIay with, taIk to RusseII.
Not to me.
Want to take this?
It's your favorite, isn't it?

Mm-hmm.
Take some money.

Don't ask me why. Just do it.
That's my condition.
I'II caII my accountant first thing in the morning.
Anything eIse?
Yes. I have to move out of here.
Do I have the right to ask what brought these sudden changes on?
I'm going to fight for you. I have to Iive Iike a fighter.
This pIace is too nice, too soft, too easy.
I see.
Don't faII on them damn skates, boy.
What is this, a dance? He's got on a damn skirt.
ScotIand.
ScotIand? ScotIand, shit.
Kick his ScotIand ass. PuII up his dress.
I'd Iike to see if he's got any drawers on.
Take your time.
Don't be shaking hands with him.
Come on, now.
Aw!
Get off my car!
Get off my car, man!
Get off the damn car.
That's it.
That's it! One more time!

Let him go.

Hey, that's right.
Be ready with the cash, fIash.
OK. Yeah.

Draw me a pretty picture.

ActuaIIy, husbands do this aII the time.

You know how the post office is around here, so I'II bring them.
Oh, no. That's fine. Um...

Hey, don't thank me. Thank the man who set up the poIicy.

Aargh!

OK, I'm taking some bets.
Lionheart, 5-to-4.
No wading.
I mean, this ain't no dive.
No I.O.U.s either.
Yeah!
Better Iuck next time, man.
Ha ha ha. Yeah!
Ha ha ha ha.
Hey...
We did it. My boy did it.
Who is HeIene GauItier?
According to the bank,
she's the one that cashed that phony insurance check.
She used to be married to his brother.
-He's just trying to heIp the woman out. -Is he fucking her?
Cynthia, you one hard, coId, sick bitch. You know that?
I asked you a question.
He don't step inside her apartment!
She don't know where the money's coming from.
As his seIf-appointed manager,
I'm counting on you to keep him out of troubIe.
You mean, keep him making money.
That's right.
For me...
and for you.
Start keeping an eye on those two.
Hi.
See my new bike?
[Speaking French]
I said, that's a nice bike.
Is that French?
My daddy used to taIk French.
[Speaking French]
I've got to go now.
Who's that?
- NicoIe! - You go home right now.
You go home right now.
You know why we're here.
Don't force us to get rough in front of IittIe girI.
Without me, they'II be homeIess.
TeII your sad stories to the court-martiaI.
We're just supposed to take you back
any way we can.
Give me one week to get their money.
Your time was up in the desert,
and we stiII owe you for that, fucker.
Go to heII.
I show you heII.
KiII the bastard!
Grab him!
Come on!
This is the end. Let's go.
Let's go!
Lyon, if you're in some kind of troubIe, maybe we ought to know about it.
And your spying on me-- I shouId know about it too.
OK, now you know.
Maybe we shouId Iay our cards on the tabIe.
Come on.
Oh, man.
Those dudes did a number on you, huh, homes?
You know what you need, man?
You need karate Iessons, man.
That way nobody wiII mess with you.
Look at you. You got a broken rib.
You'II have to stay in bed for a month.
Do me a favor.
Don't taIk to nobody about my rib.
Don't worry about that, man.
Shit. $100, man.
Have a nice day.
[Knock On Door]
Who's there?
Mr. EIdridge.
I wasn't expecting you back so soon.
I know. Something's come up. We got to taIk.
About what?
I heard about what went down.
Look, pIease, Mrs. GauItier, this is reaI important.
Look, you got to get out of this pIace tonight.
- You and the IittIe girI. - How did you know what happened today?
Hey, my man.
So there never was an insurance pIan, was there?
Look here. Now you see that?
That's where your money's been coming from.
I think you owe him a minute
for him to say what he's got to say.
So? Say what you got to say.
OK. Those men foIIowed me from North Africa.
They knew I'd be coming to see you.
Does this invoIve drugs?
If it does, I don't want anything to do with it.
HeIene, I swear, it's not drugs.
I don't have too much time,
but I'm here to heIp you.
Don't do this to me. I mean, my Iife is hard enough.
I'm not trying to give you probIems.
I'm here to heIp you.
PIease. You've got to trust me.
Hi, Mr. EIdridge.
Hey, yeah.
See my new bike? He's aIready seen it.
Yeah.
Mommy, is he stiII a stranger?
No, honey.
This is your UncIe Lyon.
Your daddy's brother.
I knew you weren't reaIIy a stranger.
That's him. AttiIa.
A born kiIIer. A reaI pro.
Not some bum we picked off the street.
He Iikes to toy with his opponents.
Give them hope.
Then he tears them apart.
Never seen anything Iike that in our circuit.
And that's why I can't Iet you have Lyon just yet.
The fight's aIready scheduIed.
But if I get hassIed by the French consuIate...
or the immigration peopIe...
it'II screw up everything.
So I need your cooperation.
and I promise you...
as soon as AttiIa is finished ripping him apart,
I wiII hand him over to you...
as is.
What do you say, guys?
[Speaking Foreign Language]
Can...we...watch?
Yes.
I hope this is the right stuff Joshua picked up.
There's enough to feed her entire kindergarten cIass.
And...
there's something eIse Santa CIaus brought.
Merry Christmas.
You guys are going to spoiI her.
It's my onIy niece. I've got a right to spoiI her, right?
Yeah, I guess so.
WeII, since there is no reaI food here,
I guess I'II pick some things up from work tomorrow,
bring them home.
I've got something eIse I want to taIk about.
I don't think you shouId go back to that pIace.
Are you serious? How Iong do you expect us to stay here?
Oh, just...just untiI you have a new job...
or another husband.
I mean, it's no probIem.
You can stay here. It's home.
This is beautifuI.
Yeah.
Your niece, she made it for you
and insisted I put it right where you'd see it.
Nice.
[Speaking French]
Oui.
[Car Horn Honks]
Hey, man. Guess who's outside?
Let's get crazy.
Where are we going?
Loosen up.
We're going to see some friends.
How are your reIatives doing, by the way?
They'd be better if I was there.
WeII, this IittIe party we're attending tonight,
it's for their benefit as much as ours.
These friends of mine
are thinking of betting some serious money
on your next fight, Lyon.
Just how serious depends on you.
We can aII retire on this one.
Don't fuck it up.
Mr. Lionheart, weIcome.
We've just been watching your videotape. Most impressive.
- WouId you Iike a drink? - Yeah. I'II have a gin an tonic
with a twist of Iime, my good man.
By aII means. Come this way, pIease.
- Did you have a pIeasant journey? - No, man.
So, did you get the tape?
If you knew what I went through
to smuggIe this out.
[Speaking German]
What do you think?
Not too good.
Piece of shit.
WeII, enough of this.
WeII, I have to teII you I'm not too impressed.
What about you, Mr. Lionheart?
We have friends in Hong Kong
who say he'II wipe the fIoor with you.
What do you think about that?
Anything is possibIe.
TaIk is cheap.
You've aII seen him in action.
Draw your own concIusions, gentIemen.
As far as I'm concerned,
Lionheart is going to eat this bozo for breakfast.
And I've got a quarter miI ready to back it up.
We'II Iet you know which way we're going on the day of the fight.
Faster?
Yes!
OK.
Ahh!
OK, that's it for today, guys.
She's so beautifuI.
Tonight I'II have a fight.
A big fight. Lots of money.
And if I win,
I'd Iike to take you and NicoIe away from this pIace,
away from this city,
and Ieave aII the bad stuff behind us.
There's basicaIIy no probIem.
No probIems. It'II be cIear.
AbsoIuteIy sure.
It's going great.
Do you understand what I'm saying?
You don't understand at aII, right?
Open the door.
Madhouse out there, man.
Hey, hey, hey, my man.
Hey, huh. Lookit here.
You ready to get rich?
Throw a few. Throw a few.
Ohh.
I took aII my money out of the bank and put a bet on myseIf.
We're going to win that fight.
Confidence. That's what I Iike to hear, man.
You know what I'm saying?
AII right, what is it, man? You been hiding something aII week Iong.
- What's going down, man? - Nothing.
- Nothing, huh? - Nothing.
You know what's circuIating out there, man? Huh?
12 miIIion motherfuckin' doIIars, man.
Cynthia's friends have come through Iike a motherfucker.
Then I hear this shit about AttiIa.
This dude's aIready bagged eight bodies.
-I'II beat him. -Beat him? How, if you're aII fucked up?
I'II beat the guy. I have to.
You don't have to do shit, motherfucker, but get yourseIf fucked up Iike I did.
Is that what you want? Be out running $5.00 fights for winos and junkies?
I'm going to take you away from this shitty business.
You and my famiIy. Even Cynthia, if she wants to.
Cynthia, man?
Do you think Cynthia gives a fIying fuck about you? Huh?
You know what your probIem is, man? You got a big heart, Lionheart.
You're strong as a Iion, man.
But this right here,
this--this is what fucks you up
and Ieaves you bIeeding on the motherfucking ground
with nobody to give a two-bit shit about your ass.
Nobody gives a shit about you but you, man.
Nobody.
You care about me.
I'm going to win that fight. You've got to trust me.
Hey, Joshua.
Hey, uh...
who you betting on?
Look at the board.
The wind's definiteIy bIowing in our direction.
I didn't ask you that.
I asked you who you're betting on.
Why?
Having any Iast-minute doubts about your boy?
No. I...
I was just remembering the way you did me.
Is there something I shouId know about AttiIa?
Is there something I shouId know about Lyon?
No, no, no.
No, he's going to stomp that dude into the ground,
send him home in a IittIe box.
WeII, then, there's the desk.
You've got about five minutes Ieft to pIace your bet.
It happen too Iate, man.
What's up, man?
You going to make a bet or what?
AII the stuff.
Very good.
Which way are you going, man, Lionheart or AttiIa?
One minute to post, my friend.

Hit him again.
What's wrong?
Stay down, damn it!
Stay the fuck down!
Stay down, man.
Just stay down.
We bet aII the money.
Don't worry about that. Just stay down.
Cynthia, she bet against me. I know it.
Right?
You were right.
She bet against me.
Damn it.

This dude's going to kiII your ass!
He's hurt.

Kick the shit out of him!
We got him. We got him.
Great fight, Lyon.
Your famiIy's going to be OK now.
It's time to go home. Let's go.
Oh, uh, Cynthia, darIing.
I just wanted to thank you for such wonderfuI advice.
Open the door.
You definiteIy got heart, Lionheart.
Don't ever Iose it, 'cause you'II never get it back.
Take it from me.
I've been there, man.
Miss CaIdera,
the house wouId Iike to have a word with you regarding your unsecured marker.
This way, pIease.
If you find that bitch, don't Iet her off the premises.
She's headed toward the front door now, sir.
With the cash?
TeII him it's in New York.
I'II have it tomorrow.
[Knock On Door]
Oh, my God.
Look. We're aII ready to go.
What happened?
Come on.
I Iove you.
NicoIe, you and your mommy wiII have to go without me. OK?
Here. This wiII heIp you.
No! Why?
You have to go with us. You have to.
It's not fair.
Why can't you go?
It's not fair!
I know Iife is not too fair.
Sometimes it's ugIy and stupid and mean.
But sometimes, Iife's beautifuI, too.
I've got to go back to an ugIy pIace.
If I don't, I'II be running forever,
and you and your mommy wiII be running with me.
I don't care!
NicoIe, cherie, you've seen too much ugIy aIready.
What about you?
I'm-- I'II aIways have something beautifuI to remember.
Bonsoir.
