Barney Ross
Let's just keep it simple. If the money's right, we don't care where the job is. Got it?
Let's quit jerkin' off, get down to business, see who's hungry. We know your real name's probably not "Barney Ross". You don't need to know my name. The only thing you need to know is the job's real, and the money's real. But since we're in this nice place, you might as well just call me "Mr. Church".
Barney
Okay, Church, what can I do for you?
In a minute. I'm still waiting for one more guy.
Barney
Who?
You know him?
Barney
Yeah, we used to be on the same team together. What's my oldest, worst friend doin' here?
Both your names came to the top of the list. That a problem?
Barney
Yeah, should'a shot him when I had the chance.
Big Barney Ross!
Barney
Bigger Trent Mauser.
What are you doing here? Praying for work?
Barney
Could be.
Have you been sick? You've lost weight.
Barney
Really? Well, whatever weight I lost, you found, pal.
You guys aren't gonna start sucking each other's dicks, are you? [Barney looks suggestively at Trent and Church laughs sarcastically] Let's get down to business, see who wants to work. You ever hear of an island called Vilena?
Barney
No.
Yeah. It's a little island in the Gulf.
That's right.
You should read more.
Barney
Thanks.
There are resources on that island that my people are very interested in.
But a general by the name of Garza has overthrown their half-ass government.
That's right. My people have a problem with this fanatic Garza.
Barney
So you want Garza gone?
I want him dead!
All it takes is a little army. Only an idiot would do this job.
Barney
How much?
Oh, like I said. [winks at Barney] Well, I'm busy anyway. [to Church] So, give this job to my friend here. [to Barney] He loves playing in the jungle, right?
Barney Ross
Right.
That's right.
Hey, why don't we have dinner?
Barney
Sure, when?
In a thousand years.
Barney
Too soon.
What's his **** problem?
Barney Ross
He wants to be president. [Trent looks back at Barney] I've gotta recon this island first.
I got a contact for you on the island.
Barney
Good riddance. [to Church] I've got a feeling everyone else has passed on this job, so our fee is five-mil.
Five mil?
Barney
I want half up front and the other half in an offshore account. You got a problem with that?
No. What I have a problem with is people trying to **** me over! So if you take this money and you don't deliver, you try to **** me in some kind of weird, cockamamie scheme of yours, me and my people are gonna come get you and your people, and chop you up into little, **** dog treats. [mockingly] You got a problem with that?
Barney
Let's talk.
