1. Bingo.
All three checked out.Copy !req
2. Mission accomplished, Frohike.Copy !req
3. Answer him. Answer him.Copy !req
4. Sayonara, baby.Copy !req
5. - Run for it!Copy !req
6. Fore.Copy !req
7. Oh, man.Copy !req
8. Well, that was fast.Copy !req
9. Hey, where are the papers?Copy !req
10. Sitting on some
loading dock somewhere.Copy !req
11. The printers would not
give them to us on credit.Copy !req
12. Whoa. Uh-uh. Byers, we gotta get that
Japanese whaling story out to the public.Copy !req
13. What do you want me to say? We spent
our last $1,200 getting the story.Copy !req
14. - We didn't save any money for publishing it.
- I figured that would happen.Copy !req
15. Oh, I am not in the mood
for "I told you so's," Langly.Copy !req
16. Far from it. If you guys are interested, I've
figured out the answer to our money problems.Copy !req
17. - Oh, yeah? What's that?
- We need to sell more papers.Copy !req
18. - Easier said than done.
- Not when you've got
"Lone Gunwoman of the Week."Copy !req
19. Oh, good Lord, Langly.
We can't use that.Copy !req
20. - She's... She's...
- She's amazing.Copy !req
21. And doesn't belong on the cover
of any legitimate publication.Copy !req
22. We're supposed to be fighting for truth,
justice and the American way here.Copy !req
23. Well, what the hell is this?
This isn't fighting?Copy !req
24. I put my butt on the line
week in and week out...Copy !req
25. while you and Byers
hide behind the scenes.Copy !req
26. Yeah, your butt, my brains.
I should be a dot-com gazillionaire...Copy !req
27. instead of gracing you two
with my hacking brilliance.Copy !req
28. - Bickering won't solve anything.
- Byers, don't get holier than thou.Copy !req
29. Yeah, Mr. Big Picture,
Mr. Mission.Copy !req
30. It's easy to talk about
the stories we need to write.Copy !req
31. Fighting whaling or illegal government
surveillance or who killed J.F.K.Copy !req
32. But you have to ask yourself,
how far will you go to print them?Copy !req
33. - Not that far.Copy !req
34. Ahh.Copy !req
35. Sorry, buddy.Copy !req
36. Uh, guys.Copy !req
37. Well, aren't you
going to invite me in?Copy !req
38. Depends.
Are you here to kill us?Copy !req
39. Melvin, would you really
be caught dead in that robe?Copy !req
40. I must admit the thought
of revenge did cross my mind.Copy !req
41. You cost me a tidy profit
when you stole my Octium IV chip.Copy !req
42. Our Octium IV chip.Copy !req
43. We've returned it to its rightful owner
now that we've published our exposé of it.Copy !req
44. How wonderful of you. Ah!Copy !req
45. Conspiracy theories and masturbation.
I suspected there was a connection.Copy !req
46. What do you want, Yves?Copy !req
47. Right. Down to business then.Copy !req
48. This morning, a body was found
in a Long Island Dumpster.Copy !req
49. Ayoung man called Alex Goldsmith.
Better known as Double Bogey.Copy !req
50. - D.B., the golf nut.
- Hacker extraordinaire.Copy !req
51. - You knew him?
- By reputation.Copy !req
52. After the '97
Masters Tournament...Copy !req
53. he hijacked theJumboTron
screen in Times Square.Copy !req
54. Made it flash "Tiger is God"
for 26 minutes.Copy !req
55. Classic hack.
Who smoked him?Copy !req
56. The police seem to think
it was a drug deal gone bad.Copy !req
57. But that doesn't take into account
the three match-grade frangible slugs...Copy !req
58. dug from his chest... ammunition used
by intelligence services around the globe.Copy !req
59. But certainly not gangbangers.Copy !req
60. So, who wanted one of
the world's best hackers dead?Copy !req
61. And why are you telling us?Copy !req
62. There's a story to be uncovered
here, wouldn't you say?Copy !req
63. Unless, of course,
you're no longer journalists...Copy !req
64. but budding pornographers.Copy !req
65. but budding pornographers.Copy !req
66. This is the place, right?Copy !req
67. Yeah, yeah.Copy !req
68. Now turn off the damn engine
and stop wasting my gas.Copy !req
69. Oh, here we go
with the gas again.Copy !req
70. It's a known carcinogen.
Got like a pint of it in my stomach.Copy !req
71. You drew the short straw. How was I supposed
to know that you don't know how to siphon?Copy !req
72. And you, Mr. Goody Two-Shoes!Copy !req
73. Mr. "Suck one gallon out of 10 cars
instead of 10 gallons out of one car."Copy !req
74. Ethically it seemed
somewhat more defensible.Copy !req
75. - Oh, you'll be sorry when I'm dead.
- Oh, yeah? Prove it.Copy !req
76. Come on. Get up. Out!Copy !req
77. Alex wasn't into drugs.
That much I know for certain.Copy !req
78. He had so much going for him
with the computers.Copy !req
79. He was brilliant.Copy !req
80. He had such a good heart.Copy !req
81. You put that in your article.Copy !req
82. That he didn't sell drugs.Copy !req
83. I guess you can see that
I couldn't give him much growing up.Copy !req
84. But I did teach him right from wrong.Copy !req
85. How did Alex spend his time?Copy !req
86. Did he have a specific
project he was working on?Copy !req
87. I didn't see much of him
these last few weeks.Copy !req
88. Um, may we see
Alex's computer?Copy !req
89. That was his very favorite
thing in all the world.Copy !req
90. Alex said that if
the house ever caught fire...Copy !req
91. it was the only thing
worth saving.Copy !req
92. He even got it autographed
by all the players in last year's U.S. Open.Copy !req
93. - Even Tiger Woods. See?
- Wow.Copy !req
94. I'm sure you gentlemen
could do with a snack.Copy !req
95. I'll be right back.Copy !req
96. Langly!Copy !req
97. That's okay.Copy !req
98. I'm better. Thanks.Copy !req
99. Fix it! Quick!Copy !req
100. Oh.Copy !req
101. - Oh, good grief.
- Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay.Copy !req
102. - What do you have?
- A big lot of nothin'.Copy !req
103. The hard drive's
been reformatted.Copy !req
104. Did you clean it up?Copy !req
105. Oh, yeah.Copy !req
106. You washed off all the names.Copy !req
107. Anybody got any Magic Markers?Copy !req
108. Fellas, how does lemonade sound?Copy !req
109. Oh, damn!Copy !req
110. It's "Tiger,"
not "Tigger," you imbecile!Copy !req
111. Here you are, boys.Copy !req
112. Oh, that, uh... that
looks lovely, but, uh...Copy !req
113. - We gotta go.
- Yes.Copy !req
114. - Sorry.
- Really, really sorry.Copy !req
115. - We'll make it up to you!Copy !req
116. - Told you I was sick.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.Copy !req
117. Guys, I'm not sure Alex
was the saint his mother thinks he was.Copy !req
118. - What's that?
- It's a bank check dated four days ago...Copy !req
119. made out to Alex Goldsmith
for one million dollars.Copy !req
120. That's them. "Philanthropic
Outreach Enterprises." P.O.E.Copy !req
121. P.O.E. Corporation.Copy !req
122. Are we to believe Alex Goldsmith
was working for a charity?Copy !req
123. Some charity... cutting
million-dollar checks to hackers.Copy !req
124. Sounds good to me.Copy !req
125. The State Corporation Commission
has jack squat on them.Copy !req
126. They have the C.E.O. registered
as a oneJames Bond, for God's sakes.Copy !req
127. A million bucks. I'd settle for $400
in cash to get my damn stomach pumped.Copy !req
128. Langly, run a plate.Copy !req
129. New York State.
M- O-D-I-V, numeral 8.Copy !req
130. Shut up about your stomach.Copy !req
131. Oh, sure. My liver's
shutting down, but who cares?Copy !req
132. "Philanthropic Outreach."
I bet the last donations these guys made...Copy !req
133. was the three bullet holes
they gave Alex Goldsmith.Copy !req
134. - You're guessing he hacked for them
and then they killed him.
- Mmm.Copy !req
135. The car's registered
to oneJames Bond. Cute.Copy !req
136. Hey, check it.
Mr. Bond, I presume.Copy !req
137. Let's follow him.Copy !req
138. - He's certainly in a hurry.
- Late for a secret meeting?Copy !req
139. So, what do you figure?Copy !req
140. - Uh, Frohike...
- Hmm?Copy !req
141. Civilians on the field!
Time out!Copy !req
142. - Frohike, are you okay?Copy !req
143. Oh, sure. Somebody's
car alarm keeps going off.Copy !req
144. What the hell?
Are you guys blind or what?Copy !req
145. Um, Langly.Copy !req
146. Watch out, guys.
Comin'through.Copy !req
147. A blind football team?Copy !req
148. Not just a team,
but a league.Copy !req
149. We're the first,
but we got franchises startin'up...Copy !req
150. in California, Arizona and Florida.Copy !req
151. God bless modern technology.Copy !req
152. Sonar helmets,
beeping footballs.Copy !req
153. I know it'll work.Copy !req
154. I promise you. One day,
you'll be watching these men on ESPN.Copy !req
155. - How you feeling?Copy !req
156. Oh, peachy.Copy !req
157. Nothing broken.Copy !req
158. So, all this was
your brainchild, Mr...Copy !req
159. Bond. Jimmy Bond.
Call meJimmy.Copy !req
160. - Oh! Nice hustle, guys!Copy !req
161. - Now give me some wind sprints.
- You got it, Coach! Boo-rah!Copy !req
162. Um, listen. I'm real sorry
about you getting tagged.Copy !req
163. But this practice is private.
You gentlemen here for a reason?Copy !req
164. We're journalists. We're interested
in doing a story about your league.Copy !req
165. - Sports Illustrated?
- The Lone Gunman.Copy !req
166. Right on.
Huntin' and fishin'.Copy !req
167. I like that.Copy !req
168. Specifically, we're wondering
how you fund this operation.Copy !req
169. - It must be expensive.
- Yes, it is.Copy !req
170. But how do you put
a price tag on a dream?Copy !req
171. Now I know that
it sounds corny...Copy !req
172. but when I look
at those men's faces...Copy !req
173. when they make a tackle,
catch a pass...Copy !req
174. Okay, that hasn't
actually happened yet.Copy !req
175. But still, to me...Copy !req
176. it's worth all the silver
in Fort Knox.Copy !req
177. That's very touching.Copy !req
178. This is America, and every citizen
has a God-given right to play football.Copy !req
179. - Where do you get your money from?
- We're a charitable endowment.Copy !req
180. We have benefactors that really
believe in what we got going on here.Copy !req
181. Who are they?
We'd love to talk to them.Copy !req
182. So would I. To thank them.
They're completely anonymous.Copy !req
183. And they want to keep it that way.
They're not in it for the glory.Copy !req
184. - Shouldn't you guys
be writin' this down?Copy !req
185. Uh, yeah.Copy !req
186. Look, we're just gonna go back
to the mobile news unit.Copy !req
187. We're just gonna grab
a tape recorder.Copy !req
188. We'll be, uh, right back.Copy !req
189. Hey, Coach!Copy !req
190. - Got him!
- High five! Yeah!Copy !req
191. Yeesh. Can that guy be for real?Copy !req
192. Yeesh. Can that guy be for real?Copy !req
193. Well, he's no criminal mastermind.
Of that I'm fairly certain.Copy !req
194. But this P.O.E. has a certain agenda,
even if he doesn't.Copy !req
195. Well, let's get the hell outta here
and stop wastin' our time.Copy !req
196. - Yeah.Copy !req
197. Boys, knock yourselves out.Copy !req
198. Where are you going?Copy !req
199. Somebody's gotta suck the pipe.
It ain't gonna be me.Copy !req
200. Langly.Copy !req
201. Hello? Anybody?Copy !req
202. Can I help you?Copy !req
203. I... can help you.
For a price.Copy !req
204. I'm guessing that you knew
a kid named Alex Goldsmith.Copy !req
205. Number two hacker in America.Copy !req
206. Why settle for number two
when you can have number one?Copy !req
207. - That would be you?
- Exactly. Whatever he was doing, I can do it better.Copy !req
208. Without even knowing what it is?Copy !req
209. Doesn't matter. As long as we're
talking computers, I got the man skills.Copy !req
210. So it's all downhill, if you know
what I'm sayin'. Come check me out.Copy !req
211. Want to be a five-star general?
Just click the button.Copy !req
212. There. That makes the Pentagon,
theJet Propulsion Lab...Copy !req
213. and the Queen's Bank
of George Town, Cayman Islands.Copy !req
214. I hacked into 'em all
inside of 19 minutes.Copy !req
215. Plus I reset your systems
clock. Daylight savings.Copy !req
216. - I got the job?
- You got the job.Copy !req
217. - Here you go.
- Thank you.Copy !req
218. - Glad to help.Copy !req
219. - Hello? Oh!
- Hello? Frohike?Copy !req
220. Hey, get off me!
You're crushing my pelvis!Copy !req
221. - Oh, man!
- Are you talking to Byers? Should I call back?Copy !req
222. No, it's not Byers.
It's just some huge guy.Copy !req
223. I mean... I mean...
What is it, Yves?Copy !req
224. I just thought I should let you know
the whereabouts of your obnoxious friend.Copy !req
225. Langly? Where the hell is he?Copy !req
226. At the moment,
being loaded into a car trunk.Copy !req
227. - Langly's in there?
- Top floor, most likely.Copy !req
228. I'm guessing this is where
Alex Goldsmith was murdered.Copy !req
229. - What is this place?
- The Belamirsk Embassy.Copy !req
230. Where the hell is Belamirsk?Copy !req
231. A breakaway republic from the former
Soviet Union, recognized by the U.S. last year.Copy !req
232. At least there's one of you
who isn't completely hopeless.Copy !req
233. - Looks secure.
- Very.Copy !req
234. Motion detectors, armed guards,
not to mention diplomatic immunity.Copy !req
235. Langly may as well be in Belamirsk.Copy !req
236. But what does a breakaway republic
have to do with a bogus charity?Copy !req
237. An arms deal. The ruling party's faced
with a rebel faction it wants to quash.Copy !req
238. They reckon a few metric tons
of nerve gas will do the trick nicely.Copy !req
239. P.O.E. is a shell company
created to hide the transaction.Copy !req
240. For some reason, they need
a good hacker to complete the deal.Copy !req
241. You know a lot more about this
than you told us before.Copy !req
242. What are you doing
in Long Island?Copy !req
243. - I presume you're profiting off this.
- What's your angle?Copy !req
244. - It's none of your business.
- I'll take a wild stab and say money. Filthy lucre.Copy !req
245. If money's all you want, why don't you
walk in there and do their hacking yourself?Copy !req
246. Do you think they'll let Langly
live to enjoy his profits?Copy !req
247. Ow! Man!
Watch the lips! Mm.Copy !req
248. I gotta say...
so far this job sucks!Copy !req
249. You'll use these.
You have T-1 access, of course.Copy !req
250. - What's the hack?
- "E" Stock online accounts.Copy !req
251. Set up a bogus corporation, access
the account debiting protocols...Copy !req
252. and transact a 50-share
I.P.O. purchase...Copy !req
253. at $10 a share
on every "E" Stock account.Copy !req
254. - Every account?
- Yeah.Copy !req
255. That's probably
100,000 people.Copy !req
256. Fifty shares at $10 a share, and
you'll raise $50 million just like that.Copy !req
257. And just like that, you'll have the S.E.C.
and Justice on your tail.Copy !req
258. You gotta know they monitor
every online transaction for fraud.Copy !req
259. Just make it happen by midnight.Copy !req
260. We could kill their alarm system.
That's a start.Copy !req
261. Then what? You can't go bursting
in there like the cavalry.Copy !req
262. What is going on with Langly? He hitchhikes
all the way back to P.O.E. for what?Copy !req
263. Just to get grabbed?
I mean, what was he thinking?Copy !req
264. He was thinking with his heart, not his head.
It was that question he asked of me:Copy !req
265. How far will we go?Copy !req
266. - Meaning?
- How far will we go to tell the truth...Copy !req
267. to get the story,
to fight the good fight?Copy !req
268. This is his answer.
All the way.Copy !req
269. That dope. He's gonna
get himself killed.Copy !req
270. Not just yet.
Not if he's useful to them.Copy !req
271. I assume he is,
which buys us a little time.Copy !req
272. I've dealt with these kinds of people
more often than I can say.Copy !req
273. I know their type. First, we have to find out
exactly what's going on in there.Copy !req
274. - I could sneak in.
- In broad daylight? Not easy.Copy !req
275. Why sneak in when you
can ring the doorbell?Copy !req
276. Especially if you're
someone they know.Copy !req
277. Good scrimmage, guys!
Way to go!Copy !req
278. - Benny, nice T.D! High five.
- Mr. Bond?Copy !req
279. - Back for more, huh?Copy !req
280. It's irresistible.
The passion of these guys.Copy !req
281. I'm tellin' ya. Monday Night Football
better watch their butts!Copy !req
282. Love this game!Copy !req
283. Well, enjoy it while you can.Copy !req
284. I think you just watched
your last blind football game.Copy !req
285. What are you talkin' about?Copy !req
286. There is no league, bub.
We checked.Copy !req
287. The other franchises don't exist.
There's just you.Copy !req
288. P.O.E. is a front set up
to cover an illegal arms deal.Copy !req
289. - And you're the fall guy.
- Me?Copy !req
290. Yours is
the only name on record.Copy !req
291. Your company had a bank check cut to a
computer programmer named Alex Goldsmith.Copy !req
292. He was gonna design our Web page.Copy !req
293. - He's dead.
- Murdered by your friend at P.O.E.Copy !req
294. I knew it! I knew there was
something up with that guy.Copy !req
295. He wouldn't give me his name,
his phone number.Copy !req
296. Always talking
about anonymous benefactors.Copy !req
297. Oh, man.Copy !req
298. - Stupid, stupid, stupid!Copy !req
299. Anybody could've made
the same mistake.Copy !req
300. Yeah. Blind football.
Who wouldn't sign on for that?Copy !req
301. Hey, that was my idea!
I thought that up.Copy !req
302. What about my team?Copy !req
303. What happens to them?Copy !req
304. You know, some people
actually laugh at those guys.Copy !req
305. Like blind football's funny.
Like it's a lost cause.Copy !req
306. I think they're missing the point.Copy !req
307. These boys are out here
because it's difficult.Copy !req
308. Because people say it can't be done.Copy !req
309. They have courage.Copy !req
310. And God knows that we need
more guys like that...Copy !req
311. that have the courage
to fight for the lost causes.Copy !req
312. Because every now and then...Copy !req
313. one of them wins.Copy !req
314. That guy who set you up?Copy !req
315. We know where you can find him.Copy !req
316. Hello? Hello?Copy !req
317. Hello!Copy !req
318. Open up!
You people, open up!Copy !req
319. Hey there.
Remember me?Copy !req
320. How's it shaking, buddy?Copy !req
321. Mr. Bond, why are you here?Copy !req
322. I was in the neighborhood.Copy !req
323. Came by to meet
the anonymous benefactors.Copy !req
324. Hello!
Anonymous benefactors!Copy !req
325. - Mr. Bond...
- Oh! You know what I just found out?Copy !req
326. There aren't any!
Know what else I found out?Copy !req
327. You're a murderer who plans
to buy a bunch of nerve gas...Copy !req
328. and you set me up
to be your fall guy!Copy !req
329. Where did you get these ideas?Copy !req
330. I know some people, okay?
Investigative journalists.Copy !req
331. They write for this hunting
and fishing magazine...Copy !req
332. and they set me straight
about everything!Copy !req
333. You're going down,
my German friend.Copy !req
334. I'm not German.Copy !req
335. You're going up.
Up, up the river!Copy !req
336. I just wanted
to tell you personally...Copy !req
337. so that every time you're
in that prison TV room...Copy !req
338. watching football,
you'll think about me...Copy !req
339. and my boys.Copy !req
340. Please tell me that
wasn't part of the plan.Copy !req
341. Psst. Psst. Hey, guy.Copy !req
342. James Bond.Copy !req
343. - Is your name Langly?
- Yeah. What are you doing here?Copy !req
344. Brought you a little present
from your friends.Copy !req
345. Although I don't think
it'll fit under this door.Copy !req
346. Oh! Wait.
I just had a thought.Copy !req
347. How's that?Copy !req
348. By all means, keep whispering.
Don't want to alert anyone.Copy !req
349. Anyway, here you go.Copy !req
350. This is what you call
a ghostly mode circle.Copy !req
351. - Ghost modem circuit.
- Yeah, pretty much.Copy !req
352. It enables you to contact
your friends outside...Copy !req
353. without the fear of, uh,
electrical surveillance...Copy !req
354. over-riddance, which has
to do with cadence...Copy !req
355. Don't even try, all right?Copy !req
356. You just plug it in to your
A.C. outlet over there.Copy !req
357. D.C. Thanks.Copy !req
358. We got traffic.Copy !req
359. Langly, what the hell are you
doing in there, you moron?Copy !req
360. - I put my butt on the line
to get the scoop on the P.O.E.
- And did you?Copy !req
361. They want me
to rip off "E" Stock for $50 mill.,
but I don't know for what.Copy !req
362. We do. It's their little slush fund
for buying nerve gas...Copy !req
363. meant to be dropped
on the rebels in Bela...Copy !req
364. - Belamirsk.
- Yeah.Copy !req
365. It'll kill thousands, Langly.Copy !req
