00:00You want me to lie?

00:02Yeah, lie.

00:04We got less than 24 hours.

00:06Give it a shot.

00:08Okay.

00:16Hi.

00:18I'm an agent with the, uh...

00:20Federal...

00:22FBI.

00:24Uh...

00:26Well, my... I'm Stanley Goodspeed.

00:28But of course you are.

00:30Well, at least you got his name right.

00:32Of course I am.

00:34And you have an emergency.

00:36That's right.

00:40And you need my help.

00:42Exactly right.

00:44Coffee.

00:46No.

00:48No, I'm fine, thank you.

00:50Offer me coffee.

00:52Oh, yes. Well, that was, in fact, gonna be my next...

00:54Can we get a cup of coffee in here, please?

00:56I'll, uh...

00:58Take these off.

01:00Mr. Mason, really?

01:02I'm kidding.

01:04It's a gesture of your good faith.

01:08Prisoner requests

01:10to have his handcuffs taken off.

01:14Why don't you go ahead

01:16and have his handcuffs taken off, please?

01:18Well, I guess that's one way to go.

01:22This is a pardon and release contract

01:24from the attorney general's office.

01:26Now, it makes you a free man,

01:28provided you cooperate.

01:30So if you'll just, uh,

01:32sign, uh,

01:34where it says...

01:36Signature.

01:38That's it, yes. Signature.

01:40Yeah.

01:42Timiodinius Agdoniferentis.

01:44I fear the Greeks,

01:46even when they bring gifts.

01:48Well, an educated man.

01:50That rules out the possibility

01:52of you being a field agent.

01:54In point of fact,

01:56I am a field agent, Mr. Mason.

01:58Really?

02:00Yes.

02:02In which field?

02:04Anti-terrorism.

02:06Then you're trained in weaponry,

02:08explosives, and mortal combat.

02:10Well-trained.

02:12Then it's the Fairmont Hotel.

02:18Okay.

02:20I want a suite,

02:22a shower, a shave,

02:24and the feel of a suit.

02:26May I also suggest, uh,

02:28a haircut?

02:30Am I out of style?

02:32Unless you're a 20-year-old guitarist from Seattle.

02:34It's a grunge thing.

02:36Grunge?

02:38Yeah, well, uh, thank you very much.

02:40All right. Call the Fairmont.

02:42Close the floor if necessary,

02:44but I want him sealed off,

02:46and he gets two hours, max.

02:50Okay.

03:02Great job. Good speed.

03:04Why don't you throw in a trip to Tahiti while you're at it?

03:06I'll deliver this to the attorney general.

03:08Uh, no, you'll give it to me. Give it to me.

03:10Reynolds, and take attorney Reynolds outside.

03:12There's a car waiting for you. Thank you.

03:16That's a signed federal document, sir.

03:18Isn't that illegal?

03:20You are not acquainted with the full facts. Good speed.

03:22With all due respect, sir, I'd like clarification.

03:24I gave that man my word.

03:26Damn it. You're on a need-to-know basis,

03:28and you don't need to know.

03:32It's, uh, it's kind of curious,

03:34but, uh, sir Walter Raleigh,

03:36Al Kamanis, Solzhenitsyn, they, um...

03:38Well, they were all wrongfully imprisoned.

03:48Womack.

03:50Why am I not surprised, you piece of shit?

03:54Happy speed!
