Walter

Simon
I want to play a game.
Walter
What kind of game?
Simon
Simon says. Simon is going to tell lieutenant McClane what
to do, and lieutenant McClane
is going to do it. None compliance will result in a
penalty.
Walter
What penalty?
Simon
Another big bang in a big public place.
Walter
What is it that you want lieutenant McClane to do?
Simon
Simon says: lieutenant McClane is to go to the corner of
the 138th street and Amsterdam, which is in Harlem if I'm
not mistaking.
Walter
Kowalski, Lambert. You know where to find McClane?
Joe
Well, I kind of doubt you will find him in a church.
Walter
Well, you better find out where Rocky is then kick him
over.

Walter

another public place.

In a street of Harlem:

personal issues or not all his doll that are barking.
Zeus
Hey, I'm talking to you. Now you've got about 10seconds
before those guys see you. And
when they do, they will kill you, you understand? You are
about to have a very bad day.
John
Tell me about it. Sir, this is a police matter,for your own
safety, I'm going to ask you..
Zeus
Your damn right this is a police matter. For yourown
safety, I suggest you have to button my shop until the
police gets here.

John
The guy back there called you hey Zeus.
Zeus
He didn't call me hey Zeus, he said: Hey Zeus. Myname is
Zeus.
John
Zeus?
Zeus
Yeah, Zeus. As in father of Apollo, mountOlympus, don't
fuck with me or I'll shovel a light
both up your ass. Zeus. You've got a problem with that?
John
No.
Zeus
Shit
John
I don't have any problem with that. Down town,police plaza.
Zeus
Ah, ah! That's just great.
Down at the police plaza:
Joe
Inspector ? just called. He's gonna release a listof
anybody else who look
that way.
Fred Schiller
Text book manopliya is a pathologicalstage where the
fantasy are controlled, or
montipius predominated. He wants control over him, he wants
control of his actions, overhis
thoughts, even his emotions.
Joe
Sound like you got a secret admirer John!
John
Yeah, maybe he will send me some flowers.
Joe
Everybody knows you like candies.
Fred Schiller
That's not that kind of emotions, thisguy is ugly.
Walter
How is that?
Secretary
Nothing's wrong. Nothing a shower wouldn'tcure. Beer is
normally taken internally
John.
John
Just get me some aspirins, whilla?
Secretary
Yeah, okay. Hold it there.
Walter
This is Fred Schiller, John, he's a...
John
Pshyrink, yeah, I get it.
Fred Schiller
Yes, I was saying that we are dealingwith a mental deniable
personality with
possible paranoid symptom.
John
Hey, hey. How about we skip down to the partwhere the fuck
this have to do with me.
Fred Schiller
I don't know. But what I do know is itdoes have
specifically to do with you. This
guy wants to pound on you until you crumble. He wants you
to dance to his tune and then...
John
Undress and fuck me?
Fred Schiller
I was going to say kill you. He issitting on an awful lot
of rage and it could be
manifested physically if he stress.
Walter
Somebody arrested, somebody pissed off.
Joe
Well, that could be a hell of a long list.
John
Fuck you Joe.
Fred Schiller
These people don't like to workanonymously. They want you
to know who's doing
it to you. So this name Simon is probably not an alias,
it's probably Simon or somevariation.
Joe
Simon rubbery, busted in 86, extortion,kidnapping, 10 to
15, did 7 years for good behavior,
released on a State word 2 months ago.
Ricky
Jacket.
John
Thanks Rick. Bob Simon was a bankrupt physic manwho
kidnapped his partner's daughter.
He's a fucked up, not a psycho, the guy we are looking for
is nut...
Charley
A nut that knows a lot about bombs. We foundthis in a
playground. Professional. Very cool stuff. You know, boom!
Walter
You think you should slam it around like thisCharley?
Charley
It's unmixed, you can't hurt it. This stuff iscutting edge.
It's a binary liquid.
Walter
What?
Charley
Like epoxy, two liquids, either one by itself,you got
nothing, but mix them... Ricky..
Connie
Ahhh.. Charley, you gonna wear that bomb upyour ass..
Walter
Christ Charley.
Charley
Like a said, very cool stuff. Now with apackage like this,
you get a warning. The bomb
has to arm itself. You'll see the red liquid bump in to the
clear before it detonates.
John
How long before?
Charley
10 seconds, 2 minutes, it could be anything.But once it's
mixed, be somewhere else.
Walter
This stuff have to be pretty rare. We oughta tobe able to
find out if
any is missing.
Joe
Already did. ????
John
Got enough to make another bomb Joe?
Joe
About 2000 pounds.
Walter
Of that?
Charley
The donating mechanism could be anything.Radio, electrical,
hell you could use a bipper
and phone in it.
Secretary
Inspector... Inspector... It's him.
Charley
We got to double the feedback loop on it.. Anasty little
trick I believe once used in
Vietnam...
Walter
Charley? Charley?
Charley
What?
Walter
Chut! Want to start the trace?
Walter
Simon.
Simon
???? walk the street and survived. ?? Where aremy pigeons
now?
Walter
Pigeons?
Simon
I had 2 pigeons, bright and gay. Fly from me theother day.
Why would it they did go, you can not tell, you don't know.
Walter
You mean McClane?
Simon
No, I mean Santa Clause.
John
Yeah, I'm here.
Simon
Ah, there after all. And your friend?
Ricky
Common, we need you in the other room.. Let'sgo.. Common..
Officer Jane
They need you, go...
John
Yeah, he is here too.
Simon
And may I speak with him? Well, is the emenySamaritan here
now?
Zeus
You got a problem with emeny?
Simon
No, no. My only problem is that I went to sometrouble
preparing that game for McClane. You interfered with a
well-led plan.
Zeus
Yeah, well, you can stick your well-led plan upyour well-
led ass.
Walter
That was not smart, there are lives at steakhere.
Not enough time inspector.
Walter
You better hope he calls back.
Fred Schiller
He will.
Walter
Ricky, you want to tell those people to shutthe hell up out
there?
Ricky
Hey, keep it down here.
Walter
Simon, he wasn't speaking for all of us.
Simon
Well, that was unpleasant. Don't let it happenagain. So,
what's your name boy?
Zeus
Don't call me boy.
Simon
I'm sorry, it was a boy attempted humor. I wasgoing to send
you home with a triding, but
now, I think perhaps you should join the game.
Ricky
We got him... It's a pay phone in Asnia.
Connie
No, wait, they are saying it's Warez, Mexico.
Ricky
No, wait, now they are saying it's Warez,Mexico.
Connie
Forget it, Australia, he's screwing up thesystem. We don't
know where he is.
Simon
Having fun with the phone company, are we? Simonsays:
McClane and the Samaritan will
go to the subway station of 72nd street and Broadway. I
will call you in 15 minutes on thepay
phone outside the station. No police. Failure to answer
will constitute of nonecompliance. Do you
understand me John?
John
Oh yeah I understand. I understand thatyou're a fucking
wacko who likes to play kids
games. That's what I understand.
Simon
Hardly.
John
Hardly, well then, who are you? Somebody I sendup? What did
you do? Shop lifting, perse
snapping, cross-dressing? What?
Simon
You cccccooooullldddn't catch me if I stole
yourchhhhaaaiiirr with you in it.
John
My chhhhaaaiiiirrr with me in it. OOOhhhhh. Thatvery
existing. Let me ask you a question
bonehead. Why are you trying to kkkiiiillllll me?
Simon
John, John come down...
John
Why don't you com down to police plaza and we'llfigure this
out like a couple of man.
Common down here.
Simon
Ahahah. If killing you was all I wanted, youwould be dead
by now.
Walter
Simon, this is inspector Cobb. I can appreciateyour
feelings for McClane, but believe me,
the jerk isn't worthed. He stepped on so many toes in this
department, by this time nextmonth, he's
going to be a security guard. His own wife wants nothing to
do with him, and he's about 2steps shy
from becoming a full blown alcoholic.
John
1 step, 1 step.
Walter
Now listen to me, you sound like a really smartguy. What is
it that you want?
Simon
Are you talking about money?
Walter
Well, what ever, what ever. McClane is a toiletbug. Now,
what would it take just to
forget him and live happily ever after?
John
Toilet bug?
Simon
You know, money is shick to me. I would not giveup McClane
for the gold in your Fort
Knox. 72nd street subway pay phone, 15 minutes, McClane and
the Samaritan. If you are
competent in the least, you've found the briefcase so you
know what I mean by penalty.
John
I want to thank you for that vote of confidenceWalter.
Walter
Well, I thought it was worth a try. This guy isa raven
maniac.
Fred Schiller
He could have been any more clearer ifhe got to McClane
history. He gave you
clues to his identity. He spoke German. He call it your
Fort Knox and he stammed whenMcClane
pushed him.
Walter
Now, you believe this guy is not bored?
Fred Schiller
This no chance. The only mention ofmoney enraged him
further.
John
What's that?
Walter
It's your shield.
John
You're asking me to be a cop again?
Walter
Ricky, get him his gun. All right?
John
You didn't answer my question.
Walter
Joe, this time, they go with back up.
John
Hey, you didn't answer my question Walter.
Walter
Are you done lieutenant. Now, you 2 better getgoing if you
going to get up to 72nd street
on time. Joe, this time, they go with back up.
Joe
You got it.
Ricky
Common you guy.
Zeus
Wo wo... I'm not going anywhere.
Walter
Simon says you got to go.
Zeus
I'm not jumping through hoops for some psycho.That's a
white man, with white problems.
You deal with him. Call me when he crosses 110th.
John
Why did you save my ass?
Zeus
I didn't. I stopped a white cop from gettingkilled in
Harlem. One white cop gets killed today, tomorrow, we've
got a thousand whitecops. All of them with hitchy trigger
finger. Got it?
Walter
Get him back.
John
Charley, where did you find that bomb?
Charley
China town.
John
Shit.
John
Zeus, partner, wait up.
Zeus
Hey hey hey, I ain't your partner, I ain't yourneighbor,
your brother or your friend. I'm your total stranger.
John
Okay stranger. You know where that park is on115th, in St-
Nicholas?
Zeus
Yeah, it's in Harlem.
John
Where did you think we find that bomb. Listen,this guy
don't care about skin color, even if
you do.
Near the subway station:
Zeus
What am I doing?
John
Cheer up. This could be worse. I'm working on anice fat
suspension. I was smoking
cigarettes and watching captain Kangaroo. Common.
Connie
Okay, they made it to the phone, but there is aproblem.
Walter
What do you mean, how big a problem?
Joe
About 300 pounds.
John
Man, excuse me man, we need this phone forofficial police
business.
Phone woman
Do you mind?
John
Honey, I'm a cop. I need the phone right now.
Phone woman
I'm sorry.
Zeus
Get off the damn phone lady, police business.
Phone woman
Well, never.
Zeus
I can get used to this.
John
I'm sure you can find a phone across the streetman. Let's
get something straight, I'm the only one here on official
police business.Don't ever do that shit again.
Zeus
Let's get something else straight. You need me alot more
than I need you. You don't like the
way I do things, fine, I quit.
John
All right. I need you. All right, I need you morethan you
need me.
John
Hello.
Simon
Birds of the fetter flop together, so do pigsand swine. Rat
and mice have their chance as
well as I have mine.
John
Nice, rimes.
Simon
Why was the phone busy. Who were you calling?
John
The psychic hot line.
Simon
I advise you to take this more seriously.
John
Look, it's a public phone, what do you want me tosay?
Simon
You could simply say that there was a fat womenon it and it
took you a minute to get her
off. Now John, there's a significant amount of explosive in
the trash receptacle next toyou. Try to
run and it goes off now.
John
Nobody's gonna run, but I got a hundred peopledown here.
Simon
That's the point. Now, do I have your attention?As I was
going to St-Asra, I meet a man
with 7 wives, every wife had 7 sacs, every sac had 7 cats,
every cat had 7 kids and everykids, cats, sacs and wives.
How many were going to St-Asra? My phone number is 555-...
John
No, no, wait. I didn't get all that. Say itagain.
Simon
Not a chance. My phone number..
John
What? I didn't...
Simon
is 555 and the answer. Call me in 30 seconds ordie.
John
All right, 7 guys with 7 wives.
Zeus
Shut up McClane, I'm good at this.
John
7 guys with 7 wives.
Zeus
Shut the fuck up McClane. He said 7 wives with 7sacs. 7
time 7 is 49. Now, tell me the
rest.
John
All I got is sacs with 7...
Zeus
Weren't you listening?
John
Yeah, I was only trying to hear.
Zeus
What the fuck is wrong with you?
John
Beside I have a fucking hang over for one thing.
Zeus
All right, all right. 7 wives time 7, 49 with 7cats, 7 time
49 is, 343, right?
John
Don't ask me, you telling me.
Zeus
I'm telling you, 343 time 7 is, 2401, that's whatyou get?
Right?
John
Yeah, that's what I get. Is this it? 2401?
Zeus
Dial, 555-2401.
Zeus
No wait, wait. It's a trick. It' a trick.
John
What, what, what do you mean?
Zeus
I forgot about the man.
John
What man? Fuck the man. We got 10 seconds.
Zeus
He said how many were going to St-Asra, right?The riddle
begins as I was going to
St-Asra, I meet a man with 7 wives. The guy and his wives
aren't going anywhere.
John
What are they doing?
Zeus
Sitting on a fucking road, waiting on the... Howthe hell
should I know?
John
Who's going to St-Asra than?
Zeus
The guy, just the guy.
John
Just one guy?
Zeus
The answer is one.
John
Just the guy. How do you dial 1?
Zeus
555-0001.
John
0001. Just one guy is going.
Simon
Hello John.
John

Simon
But you're 10 seconds late.
John

goddamn miracle.
John

John
That bomb was going to go off no matter what, hewanted it
to go off. Right down here.
Help me up Dave.
Joe

Telephone, house. Anything unusual

John
Well, now that you mention, I have experience ayou know,
like a burning sensation between my toes. I thought it was
just an athlete footor something.
Jarvis
We've read your jacket lieutenant. We were toldyou would be
cooperative.
John
Cooperative with what?
Walter
Hey hey, wait a minute. He will be.
John
This is a waist of time here.
Walter
You want to share information, how aboutsending a little
our way as well.
Cross
Look, we want to hear what he knows first.
Walter
What the hell, you give us pictures and then...
Cross
Look, we want to hear what he knows first.
John
Hey, I know as much as you know, all right. There's a guy
out theresetting off bombs, he
calls himself Simon. He speak with a German accent, and for
some reason, he's very angrywith me.
Maybe you can tell me why fellows, hein?
Jarvis
First man there is Mantious Orgo, was Oregonianarmy,
explosive expert. Now, we believe he's working for the
Arian.
Walter
Working?
Jarvis
Free lance terrorism. By contract.
John
Who's the girl?
Cross
Targo's little half. Rumors is the Rallies slipthe bomb in
between their sheep. He wasn't at
home, but they think maybe they got her.
Jarvis
Second man was an obscure coronel, in the EastGerman army.
Ran an infiltration trace
unit. Kind of thing the nazi did at the battle of the Bold.
English speaking. Troupe.
John
Yeah, yeah. I saw the movie.
Jarvis
All we know of him is GDR medical reports showhe suffers
from migraines. His name is
Peter Creep.
John
Well, that is an exceptional report fellows. Now,you want
to tell me what the hell it has to
do with me?
The name Groober means anything to you, lieutenant?
John
Rings a bell, yeah.
Ricky
LA
Walter
What?
Ricky
That thing in the building in LA.
Peter Creek was born Simon Peter Groober. He's Hawn
Groober'sbrother.
John
Shit.
Cross
Yeah, that thing in LA. We've figured he've gotyou fit it
up in a toe tie, and he's going to do
anything to get a tie.
Secretary
Inspector, inspector, it's him.
Jarvis
Don't let him know we are here.
Walter
Simon.
Simon
Inspector. Now, who from the FBI is in the van,i wonder.
Let's see, almost certain as a
cross, colonel Andrew, say hello.
Hello
Simon
And I know you're never on alone, so say helloBill. Still
trying to butch out by chewing on
your glasses. Hehehe.. These gentlemen, as they say, is
where the clock tickens. I haveput 2400
pounds of explosives in one of the 1446 school in center
New York. It's figured of a timerset to
explode at exactly 3 pm. Thank you, your silence says I'm
understood.
Walter
Did you say 2400 pounds?
Simon
Yes, but please, don't interrupt again. Simonsays if you
attempt to evacuate schools, the
bomb will be detonated by radio, and gentlemen, someone
will be watching. Repeat, oneschool will
be dismiss permanently at 3 pm, unless.
Walter
Unless what?
Simon
Unless John McClane and his new best friendcomplete the
tasks I set them. John, are you
listening?
John
Yeah.
Simon
The pay phone beyond hope, pumpkin square park.20 minutes,
go by foot. No rush. If you're really clever, you will
learn the location ofthe bomb and the code to disarm it.
Oh, by the way gentlemen, we got something of abargain on
radio detonators, the only problem is the darn thing seems
to respond to policeand FBI frequency. So, if I were you,
I'd keep off your
radios.
Walter
Simon, wait. 2400 pounds of that liquid stuff.My god. Get
me the commissioner.
He's doing a press conference. He is supposed to be here in
halfan hour.
Walter
All right Ricky, get every senior officer onthe site. Get
them here right away. You're not going to give me any
juritional non-senseon this?
Cross
I got 2 kids in the school on 64th. what can Ido to help
you?
Walter
How many man have you got?
Cross
75, but if I push the panic button, I can get500 from
Washington.
Walter
When?
Cross
2:30, 3:00 o'clock.
Jarvis
Between now and then.
Walter
We are going to have to do this all byourselves. Let's go.
Pumpkin square park is more
than 2 miles away, so you guys better get running. No
radio, you take my telephone. Youget
anything, you call me through the switchboard. Good luck.
John
Thanks. Find that bomb.
Walter
Ricky, where are they?
Ricky
Right over here. Senior man president is chefAllen.
Walter
Chef of what?
Ricky
Transit.
Walter
Okay, thanks Ricky.
Walter
Gentlemen, we have a decision to make. ChefAllen. The man
who has done this has told
us that he have planted another large bomb in a school here
in the New York area. And hehas told
us that we can not evacuate, but he has not said us that we
can not search. Now, Irecommend we
get everybody, and I mean everybody. I'm talking about
police, transit, sanitation, fire,even the
goddamn librarian and we start searching. And I mean right
now. I'm talking about a 1000buildings
within the city limits and we have 3 hours and 15 minutes
to do it in. Now, I would liketo keep the
media out of this as long as possible, because if they get
in, we've got a panic. Are wein an
agreement?
Cop #2
Common guys, let's go.. Move out...
On the roof of a building near the subway station:
Simon
They bought it. We can begin. ?????
Back on the street:
Cop #2
You heard the man, let's go, let's go...
At the 911 switch board:

Sgt John Turley

department's communication.
Wanda Schepard
What do you mean, handle?
Sgt John Turley
They are shutting down the policeband. All calls will be
coming through this
switchboard.
Wanda Shepard
And I'm going to marry Donald Trump.
All the cops are gone, outside the Wallstreet station:
Pamela
Walsh, what's going on? Why is everybody out ofhere?
Ricky
Common Pamela, look at your watch. It's comingup on shift
change. The big Hangner are
worried about overtime so we send everybody back to the
free center to punch out. The nextshift is going to be here
in a minute.
Pamela
You are so full of shit Walsh.
Ricky
Thank you. What the hell? Hey, wo wo...
Simon
Detective. Bob Thompson. City engineer Thomas.We would like
to get an idea of the
damage.
Ricky
Man, you guys really got here fast.
Simon
Well, it's Wallstreet sir. A lot of money here,a lot of
opinion makers, the maire doesn't
want to piss off, you know. This is it? Holly tollido.
Somebody had fun. I'd appreciate itif you'd
showed my associates the way down.
Ricky
Yeah, yeah, sure. Jimmy, you got the flashlight?Murphy,
common, you too.
Ricky Walsh.
John Kongo.
Ricky
Common gentlemen, let's go. The World Trade, youknow what
that mess was.
In the Federal Reserve Bank:
Simon
This is for mister Neal. Tell him misterVanderflog is here.
Back at the subway station:
There is a lot of steam down here.
Ricky
Yeah, yeah. We snap a couple of the steam pipes.It's like a
sauna. We've
got the subway guys to shut down the 3rd rail. The
emergency lights and there's still somelights...
Hey!!
No shooting..
Otto
Ggjhbgkjhgkfjh
Speak English.
Otto doesn't speak English, do you Otto?
Where the hell did we get this guy?
He's from Targo post.
Pull down the way, pull down the way.
On a road, heading for the park:
Zeus
So, what's up with that LA thing? You're famousor
something?
John
Yeah, for about 5 minutes.
Zeus
Don't tell, Rodney King. Right?
John
Fuck you. You know, this guy Simon we are talkingto. I
threw his little
brother of the 32nd floor of Okinita Tower out in LA. I
guess he's a little pissed offabout it.
Zeus
Wait a minute. You mean you're telling me I'm inthis shit
because some white asshole brother off a roof.
In the FRB:
Philip
Mister Vanderflog, Philip Toggle. CorporateRelations. Sorry
you had to wait but apparently, there was an explosion in
the subway. Itplayed hell with our alarms I'm afraid.
Simon
I hope there's nothing wrong?
Philip
Oh no, no. Good lord. Safe and secured. Now,you were
concerned about a currency
exchange. We are not a commercial bank, in the normal
sense. We are primarily a government
central bank, that sort of thing. Apart from the depository
of course.
Simon
Of course.
Philip
Right, and you are in the flower businessmister Vanderflog?
In the subway:
Back back... fdjhfdjk.
In the FRB:
Philip
Oh no, mister Vanderflog. This is the vaultelevator. Sorry.
Our alarms are sonic and sound
maker. Two things which I'm afraid do not react well to
explosion. The subway business asknocked our system in a
cock ack. In fact, we had to give up and pull the plug on
littlethings. The repair
people are downstairs now.
Simon
Good lord.
Philip
Yeah, it would be a betsy if anyone knew.Ahahah. But I
thought this was a currency
exchange?
Simon
I think we go straight mister Toggle.Dangulberry.
Hey captain, you want to come down here and have a look at
this?Something is
going on.
What do you think guys, you will be able to fix it?
Just a minute now.
Okay, I'll be right back. DOWN!
Simon
Stay back.
Common, common.
Front desk.
Yes, call the police, get your ass down here. I'm under
attack.
Hey, just relax man. Maybe you'll live through this.
Shit! Ahhhhhhhh.
Simon
I think he's dead my dear. fhjgkfjhgk.
In the vault of the FRB:
Jkfhkjghdfgj.
Lfghfjkgk.
God! It's Fort Knox.
hfgfsjhgb.
Simon
140 000 000$. 10 times what's in Kentucky. FortKnox. Ah!
It's for tourists.
In the park:
John
Yeah, McClane.
Simon
John, you're out of shape. You barely made it.
John
Yeah, well, well, we'll barely make it. What doyou want us
to do?
Simon
What has 4 legs and is always ready to travel?
John
Hein? What?
Zeus
What did he say?
John
What has 4 legs and is always ready to travel?
Zeus
What's the matter with you, don't you have kids?That's an
elephant joke. Wo, is that a bomb?
Near the fountain:
John
Go ahead and grab it.
Zeus
No, you're the cop.
John
Man, Simon said you were supposed to help withthis.
Zeus
I'm helping.
John
When are you gonna start helping?
Zeus
After you get the bomb. Be careful. Don't openit.
John
What? I got to open it. It's gonna be all right.
Zeus
Shit, shit. I told you not to open it.
Simon
I thought you see the message. It has aproximity segment.
So please, don't run.
John
Yeah, I got it. We're not gonna run. How do weturn this
thing off?
Simon
On the fountain, there should be 2 jugs, do yousee them? A
5 gallon and a 3 gallon. Fill
one of the jug with exactly 4 gallons of water and place it
on the scale and the timerwill stop. It must be precise,
one onze of more or less will result in detonation.
Ifyou're still alive in 5 minutes, we'll
speak.
John
Wait, wait a second. I don't get it. Do you getit?
Zeus
No.
John
Get the jugs. Obviously, we can't fill the3-gallon jug with
4 gallons of water.
Zeus
Obviously.
John
All right. I know, here we go. We fill the3-gallon jug
exactly to the top, right?
Zeus
Huhuhu.
John
Okay, now. We pull this 3 gallons into the5-gallon jug.
Given us exactly 3 gallons in the 5-gallon jug, right?
Zeus
Go ahead. Go boy.
John
All right. We take the 3-gallon jug and fill itat the 3rd
of the way...
Zeus
No, he said: Be precise. Exactly 4 gallons.
John
Shit. This guy is running his ass off a 50 milesper hour.
And I'm out here playing kids games
in the park.
Zeus
Hey, you want to focus on the problem at hand?
John
Well, you said you knew. You said: Don't sayanything if you
don't know.
I thought. Give me the fucking jugs.
Zeus
We can't start over.
John
Pull that out.
Zeus
We can't start over.
John
I gonna put my feet up your ass my dumb mutterfucker...
Zeus
Say it. Say it.
John
What?
Zeus
You were gonna call me a Niger, won't you?
John
No I wasn't.
Zeus
What were you going to call me?
John
Asshole. How is that asshole? You got somefucking problem
with me because I'm white Zeus. Is that it? Have I pressed
you, have Ipressed your people somehow? I'll tell you what
your problem is. You don't like me becauseyou're a racist.
Zeus
What?
John
You're a racist. You don't like me because I'mwhite.
Zeus
I don't like you because you're going to get mekilled. How
much time? Ah shit! We got less then a minute. Throw this
thing away.
John
Look, we can't take this off, it will detonate.Just wait,
wait a second. I got it. I got it. Exactly 2 gallons in
here, right?
Zeus
Right.
John
Leaving exactly 1 gallon of empty space, right?
Zeus
Yeah.
John
A full 5 gallon here, right?
Zeus
Right.
John
You pull a 1 gallon out of 5 gallon in there, wehave
exactly 4 gallons here.
Zeus
Yes.
John
Common. Don't spill any. Good, good, good.Exactly 4
gallons.
Zeus
You did it McClane.
John
Put it on the thing, get it down there.
Zeus
Oh shit.
Ahahahaha.
Simon
Congratulation. You're still alive.
John
Hein?
Simon
Congratulation.
John
Yeah, we did it.
Simon
You supprised me again John. This is becoming anugly habit.
John
Well, I don't have the time right now Simon.Listen, a
deal's a deal. Where's the school bomb?
Simon
On the contrary, you have lots of time. You have2 hours and
27 minutes
precisely. Plenty of time to test those wits of yours.
John
Hey, back. Hey, listen jerk off. Let me tell yousomething.
I got a bad fucking hang over all right? And I'm little
sick of these fuckinriddles. Now, where is the school bomb?
Simon
Temper John. The road of the truth as manyturns. You will
find an envelop under the rain
of the fountain. When you will on to take the trip it
suggests. Ask yourself thisquestion: What's 21
out of 42?
In the subway:
Targo
We'll be fine. We should abandon the rest andgo.
Simon
Relax Targo. There's not a cop for 20 blocks.
Back at the park:
John
He is sending us at the home team dog out, at theYankee's
stadium. Why?
Zeus
Well, we're the home team. He said anything else?
John
What's 21 out of 42?
Zeus
21 again. Half of 42. 42 what?
John
How many players are on the Yankee's ball club?
Zeus
25.
John
What else is 21? Blackjack.
Zeus
The club.
John
It's a wild goof chase. That's what it is. Whereis the
nearest a train?
Zeus
Wait, wait, wait. You know, some kid might findthat.
John
You're right.
Come back here, you little son of bitches. I'll remember
you.
John
Hey, hey. Where are you going? Come here. Whatare you
doing? What are you doing?
Let me go dick head.
John
Watch your mouth. You want to go to the JuvenileHall for a
Butterfinger? Is that it?
Look around man. All the cops are at something. It's
Christmas,you could steal City Hall.
John
Common. Let's go.
My bike.
John
Let's go.
That's my bike.
Zeus
Hey, hey. Where are you going? Yankee's stadiumis that way.
Back at the Wallstreet subway station:
John
Why won't you run over everybody in the wholestreet?
Zeus
McClane, what the fuck are we doing back downhere?
John
Let me ask you something. What is it thatWallstreet doesn't

John

John
Give it to those guys over there.
He's here.
Simon
Perhaps you could be a little more specific.
McClane is here. He's walking toward the bank. The black
man iscoming toward me.
Simon
Oh oh, now, that's a betsy. I thought they weregoing to the
stadium.
Targo
Simon. Kill him. Stop playing with him and killhim now.
Simon
Okay, so be it. May he rest in peace. I'llinform Carl in
the lobby. You pack up your team and get out of there.
And this one?
Zeus
Officer?
Yeah, I'm afraid I'm gonna need an answer on that issue.
Simon
Let him go.
Understood. Yes sir?
Zeus
John McClane says to give you this. Wait, Jesus,don't open
it. It's a bomb.
Another.
Zeus
Yes.
Oh, I see. Hmm. We'll take care of that. We'd better move
now.Sir, thank you so much for your assistance. We really
appreciate it. Thank you. What areyou doing?
I don't wanna ride with it.

Karl

John
Nice to meet you.
Karl
I keep telling myself I should take the stairjust for the
exercises. But on a hot day like this, it's seem like I
always end up ridingin the lift.
John
Hey, what was the lottery numbers last night? Youguys play
lottery? No. My wife buys me 2 tickets every weeks, for the
last 10 years, sheplayed the same 2 numbers all the time. I
say: Honey, why won't you play a differentnumber? She goes:
Well, these are my lucky numbers. I got the tickets right
here.
Put that fucking gun down.
Down.
In the subway station, that connects to the vault of the
FRB:
Zeus
Hello? Anybody's down here?
John
Put your fucking hands. Put your fucking handsup.
Zeus
No, no John. No, no, no. It's me.
John

Zeus
You all right?
John

Zeus
What the hell is going on down here.
John

Not a god damn hight.
Zeus
What was in the room?
John

Zeus
What is this? Is this gold?
John
Yeah. It's gold.
Zeus
Damn, this is heavy. They took a room full ofthis. You

John
A dump truck. 14 great big dump trucks.
Zeus
We almost got hit by a dump truck.
John
Shit.
Zeus
Damn. Slow down.
John
Put that shit down.
Zeus
No fucking way.
John
They ain't gonna let you keep it.
Zeus
Yeah, yeah. We'll see.
John
We'll need a car.
On the street:
John
You know how to hot-wired this thing.
Zeus
Of course I can, I'm an electrician. The onlyproblem is, it
takes to fucking long.
On a road, running after the dump trucks:
John
Not on the bridge.
Zeus

John
Let's go. Common, common. Oh shit!
Zeus

John
He'll feel better when he looks on the back seat.
Zeus

John
