:12:00
That's him.
The big shot?

:12:03
Simeon Weisz, Angola,
Mozambique,

:12:06
those Exocet missiles
in the Falklands.

:12:08
He was selling guns before
there was gunpowder.

:12:12
Be right back.
:12:16
Mr. Weisz? Mr. Weisz!
:12:19
It's okay, they're talking.
:12:21
May I help?
:12:23
A mutual friend, Eli Kurtzman
:12:24
from Brighton Beach,
:12:25
import/export said to contact you.
:12:28
I have a business proposal
:12:29
and I thought perhaps we could
discuss it.

:12:32
I don't think you and I are
in the same business.

:12:35
You think I just sell guns,
don't you?

:12:37
I don't. I take sides.
:12:39
But in the Iran-Iraq war
you sold guns to both sides.

:12:43
Did you ever consider that
I wanted both sides to lose?

:12:47
Bullets change governments far
surer than votes.

:12:52
You're in the wrong place,
my young friend.

:12:54
This is no place for amateurs.
:12:59
Motherfucker.
:13:01
Curious how you always revert to
your native tongue

:13:03
in moments of extreme anger.
:13:05
And ecstasy.
:13:09
Oh God... Oh, God!
:13:20
You are beautiful.
:13:22
What's your name again?
:13:30
The only option for Vitaly and me
:13:31
was under-the-counter gunrunning.
:13:34
Beirut, Lebanon - 1984
:13:35
I got my first break in Lebanon
:13:37
after the suicide bombing.
:13:41
But I wasn't the only local kid
making good.

:13:48
When the United States leaves a war zone...
:13:50
they generally don't take
their munitions.

:13:53
It costs more to bring it back
:13:54
than to buy new stock.
:13:56
So, we sell by the kilo.
