:45:00
Off the coast Colombia.
:45:02
What was the name of that freighter?
:45:03
I can't remember, was it the Kono
or the Kristol?

:45:07
The crew called that vessel a lot of names.
:45:09
None repeatable in polite company.
:45:11
Answer the question.
:45:12
The new MP-5.
:45:15
Would you like a silencer for that?
:45:16
I need to see your papers.
:45:19
Get the fuck off me.
:45:21
Dmitri!
:45:26
The end-user certificate for this aircraft...
:45:28
states "Burkina Faso."
:45:31
Nice, very nice.
:45:32
Did you type this up yourself?
:45:34
The helicopter is to be used on
humanitarian missions.

:45:36
Oh, so you're a humanitarian?
:45:38
Oh, absolutely.
:45:40
This is a military aircraft.
:45:42
Not anymore.
Listen to the nephew!

:45:44
What can they do with military hardware
:45:45
but convert it to civilian use?
:45:48
The only way you could die from this baby
:45:49
now is if a food drop hits you.
:45:54
And this stuff over here, huh?
:45:55
Is it going to Burkina Faso... Ah,
:45:57
but to a different client at a
different address.

:45:59
That's just a coincidence is that it?
:46:00
Do you take me for a complete
fucking fool?

:46:03
Not complete, sir.
:46:05
And while I hesitate to tell your job.
:46:07
I must point out that
when shipped separately,

:46:09
the weapons and the aircraft
:46:10
both comply with current Interpol
:46:11
trade standards and practices.
:46:13
We both know, that is an obscene
:46:15
bureaucratic loophole that's gonna
be closed

:46:17
any goddamn day.
:46:19
But it's not closed.
:46:20
And while certain people might interpret
:46:22
this cargo as suspicious,
:46:24
thank God we live in a world,
where suspicion alone

:46:26
does not constitute a crime.
:46:27
And men like you
:46:29
respect the rule of law.
:46:35
I was as guilty as sin,
:46:36
but Valentine couldn't prove it.
:46:38
And he was the rarest breed of
law enforcement officer,

:46:41
the type who knew I was breaking the law,
:46:42
but wouldn't break it himself to bust me.
:46:46
TWO DAYS LATER
:46:48
Valentine wasn't the only one trying to
:46:50
put me out of business.
:46:51
My uncle had turned down a half
dozen rival arms dealers,

:46:54
sometimes with offers better than mine.
:46:57
But to Dmitri, you couldn't put
a price on loyalty.
