Kiss for luck?
Who needs luck?
What do you want?
I got a job for you. Right here in town, got to be this morning.
No, I don't do that anymore.
The rumors are true, damn it. That's like Picasso throwing away his paintbrush.
I'm gonna keep her alive. You guys find a way to get her out of here.
With what?
You stole a Michelangelo with tin foil and chewing gum! Figure it out!
[As the police sirens approach]
Hang on.
Um, no. Cops, bad. Thieves, go.
[Eliot, Hardison, and Parker are handcuffed in the back of a government van.]
This is a violation of my constitutional rights.
You're Alec Hardison. You cracked the Pentagon servers when you were twelve. NSA has a file on you a mile long.
Do they? What do they say about me? I hope they gave me a cool nickname.
Make it look good.
[Eliot punches him, but Vance shrugs it off]
Really? That's all you--
[Eliot punches him again, but Vance shrugs it off again]
You're slowing down in your--
Eliot punches him a third time and Vance finally falls unconscious.]
Three tries? Damn.
He didn't always wear a suit.
What do they got on the gunman?
They're running his prints. It's gonna take hours to narrow down.
Look up the Navy SEAL database, enlisted from '90 to '95. [Hardison turns to him] It's his watch. Steel-brushed chronometers were standard SEAL issue, until they switched to the carbon black diver's watch in '95. It's a very distinctive watch.
It's got every database...NSA, CIA, FBI, it's got hard backdoors into most commercial systems, live feeds into every security camera on the grid. Man, if this wasn't such a gross violation of our civil liberties, I would be in love right now!
The case is vacuum-sealed.
Do not tell me what’s inside.
Says... “influenza, 1918.”
Get out. Now! Get out! Now! Go! Go! Get out! (outside) The Spanish flu killed 50 million people during World War I, and now somebody’s got it.
Look, we can do this. Just treat it like any another job.
This isn’t just any other job.
All right, all right. Stay focused.
I focused! That bug in there killed 50 million people! 50! And that was when the population was lower.
Now?
Now? 150 million people. 150 million dead. Hey, we’re thieves, man, and we’re good at what we do, but this is way, way out of our league. And you expect us to go catch some psycho with a city killer? A country killer?
You scared?
You’re damn right.
I’m not. I got the best thief And the smartest guy I know chasing this guy. Hey, listen to me. You’re smartest man I’ve ever known, Hardison. I need that brain to get me to him. ‘Cause you know if I lay my hands on him, it’s done. Get me to him.
Call up the NSA satellites.
Calling up NSA Satellites.
Thank you, creepy spy truck.
[Vance's response on finding the trailer.]
There's a time for sneaking around, my brother, and a time for droppin' an attack chopper full of pissed-off 19-year-olds in full body armor on somebody. And we have reached that appointed hour.
Hi. Kiss for luck?
I don’t believe in luck.
For luck.
(Parker kisses Hardison, then she and Eliot nod at each other. Parker grabs the briefcase and runs off the train.)
Parker, no! Don’t do it! Parker! Parker!
(Parker holds her torch and activates the bomb. As the virus is released, she sets it on fire with the laser. Once it’s done, she turns to Hardison)
Fire’s the only thing that’ll kill this thing, right?
Yeah. Yeah, that’ll do... that’ll do it. (he pulls her into his arms) Don’t do that to me. I can’t lose you. Do you understand? I can’t lose you. Don’t scare me like that.
Yeah.
I can’t.
Promise you'll consider working with us again.
I work with them now.
Honor among thieves?
Something like that.
The world can always use more good guys.
Too bad we're the bad guys.
