Jack Reacher Edit

A conspiracy to kill five random people?

A hole in one pocket.

A little.

A long time ago.

A man I know to be guilty. A man you want to keep off death row.

A man this rare can always be of use.

A missing person isn't clean.

A nanny caring for the six year old daughter of family friends.

A P.l., then, or the D.A.'s office.

A pleasure.

A pristine bullet,

A quarter million rounds in his career, not one at a human target.

A retirement home. If I go to prison at all.

Aah!

Aah!

Aaron Ward.

According to the victim's boss,

Afraid Barr's credit card statement's a dead end.

After a literal lifetime in the military, he just up and quits. And then,

After arriving in Jeb Oliver's car.

After everything I just told you, you still want to defend him?

Against a D.A. who never loses.

Ah!

All clear!

All day long he stares through a scope at civilians.

All it takes is someone willing to dig.

All right, let's just say that Barr didn't do it.

All right.

All right. Thanks for calling. I have to go.

All right. You're right.

All the time. You should try it.

Almost like he knew something.

Always amidst allegations of corruption

Always the bullet.

Am I free to go?

Am I in trouble?

Am I stealing your car?

Am I wearing too much perfume?

An average shooter firing in poor conditions, never missed.

And a bank account in Virginia.

And a Purple Heart. He spent the bulk of his service

And after seven long years of "Mission Accomplished,"

And again on Sunday.

And anything else?

And arguably the prosecution's single most important piece of evidence.

And don't talk to anyone until I get there.

And finally you decide you've had enough.

And for his.

And frankly, neither are you.

And he made his own bullets. That means he shot a lot.

And he's worried about the meter maid?

And his shit's all gone.

And his wife takes comfort in the fact that, in his last moments,

And how do you propose we get him started?

And how do you think you would have done it?

And how many would live their lives like me?

And how safe will I be if you're part of it?

And I can walk there in 24 minutes.

And I got away with it.

And I have nothing better to do.

And I hear you have an in with the local D.A.

And I hired you. Jesus, my father was right.

And I need to go to city hall and pull up Oline's legal history.

And I showed up, didn't I?

And I'll be along when I am damn good and ready.

And I'll understand.

And I'm pretty sure you never played second base for the Yankees

And I'm very, very sorry and I promise I won't bother you again.

And if he wanted to get caught,

And if I don't?

And if I'm right, just saying her name could get you killed.

And if it's bars, bowling alleys or strip clubs, we'll never find it.

And if you're smart, that scares you, because I'm in your blind spot

And it blew back on you.

And it was an easy 100 bucks.

And Jeb hasn't been seen since he left the hospital.

And just picking off some total strangers, all right?

And kill you just as soon as you stand up.

And maybe when that cooperation isn't enough,

And nothing better to do.

And obviously I'm not going to turn a blind eye,

And Oline Archer was the second victim.

And Oline wouldn't let it go.

And one pissed off eyewitness.

And she was on her way to pick up the tickets that very afternoon.

And someone is making the occasional withdrawal. All wire transfers.

And someone tried to make it look like he left town.

And sticking it to your father because...

And that's why she kept walking

And that's why the privilege.

And the cops were rolling before the fight even started.

And the D.A. won't let you see the evidence.

And the exact same conditions

And the only one who could have told him about Baghdad

And the who of it never once enters your mind.

And they killed her because of me.

And they never use personal vehicles.

And this case won't be about James Barr's guilt or innocence.

And this guy, he made me a promise.

And those five guys are her brothers? Come on.

And using your range to do it.

And we don't leave questions unanswered ever.

And when I saw his name on the news, I came here to keep it.

And who the hell pays for parking?

And why would you come here to help him?

And with every shot, he's taught to visualise

And yet never an investigation. Never even an inquiry.

And you can't ask Barr,

And you don't worry about a charge showing up on your credit card

And you have questions about my daughter?

And you know if you don't scratch that itch now,

And you said we don't like people asking questions.

And you?

And you'll do anything not to hit the bottom of it.

And you're asking me to look at him objectively.

Answer the question.

Anxiety.

Any chance I could look at the evidence?

Any of them know who you are?

Any single piece of evidence I'd buy. But all of it?

Any time now, Gunny.

Anyway, he was a shooter.

Anyway, I can't see anything, not with them lights up.

Anywhere someone would remember him.

Apparently, a troublemaker, too.

Are we done?

Are you afraid you'll end up like Barr?

Are you gonna go talk with that child?

Are you kidding? It's five against one.

Are you okay?

Are you on the run?

Are you really so set on putting this man to death that you'd ignore...

Are you suggesting...

As a reward for all his hard work,

As human beings.

As soon as you picked me up. Why?

Ask yourself how many would do things

Assuming he had any.

At least he used to be.

At least not under his real name.

At this time of night? I don't know. An hour?

Austin, Oklahoma City, Sacramento.

Aw, you ruined my surprise.

Barr consistently filled his tank on Saturday,

Barr didn't come alone, did he?

Barr was incapable of such perfection.

Barr's attorney hired an investigator.

Barr's credit card statement. Eyewitness testimonies.

Barr's not getting away with murder again.

Bars, bowling alleys, strip clubs,

Be back to pick me up at 7:00.

Be that as it may, I'm the only one who's bothered to track him this far.

Because in Baghdad, the sun's behind him.

Because it's for sure some soccer mom around here

Because the Office of the District Attorney never bought you a pony.

Before the frostbite could turn to gangrene.

Before you hand them the phone.

Being told every day you're defending freedom.

Between the first and second rounds.

Born and raised on bases abroad.

Born Jack, not John, no middle name, is a ghost.

Breathing too sternly. Detective Emerson.

Business meeting or personal?

But a Match level gun range? There might be two.

But Baghdad, you said Barr was in a parking garage then.

But Barr knew I would,

But he trained non stop for two years.

But her dedication had paid off.

But I could hear the nurses talking to those cops out there.

But I won't.

But I'm not in the habit of driving out to the boonies at the drop of a hat

But in fact, she was headed downtown.

But it's done and we can't undo it.

But it's just a theory.

But it's just a theory.

But no one's pressing.

But now that it was hers,

But Rodin here is a generous fellow. He's willing to let you take your pick.

But the girl she cared for wanted Chrissie to stay for her 7th birthday.

But this is not the fight. Trust me. James Barr's guilty.

But what happens to you in the meantime?

But you were ready to tell this to the D.A.

By beating some tactical awareness into them.

By that, I mean you're doing one or the other

By your response I'm guessing I have about 30 seconds

Call her out, Gary.

Call the police.

Can I have a few to warm up?

Can I help you?

Can I help you?

Can you at least tell me who he is?

Can't possibly be enough to just...

Can't! I can't.

Charlie. Jeb's friend?

Chelovek?

Chelovek? Human.

Chelovek. Zec Chelovek.

Children.

Chrissie Farrior was 22.

Chrissie was a nanny.

Christ!

Christ's sakes, man. You only had to kill one goddamn person.

Clean!

Coffee. You take it black, right?

Come in.

Come on, before this gets awkward. Now, hey.

Come on. Now we both know gold's only as good as the man digging.

Confess or face death.

Conspiracy.

Conveniently trapped by a liquid backstop.

D.A. Rodin's never lost a capital case. You know why?

Darren Sawyer was an investment broker

Darren's body was found beside a fresh bouquet of roses

Day in, day out, for two long years

Dead, maybe?

Defence Superior Service Medal? Had to look that one up.

Demoted to Captain.

Did I have a knife in Siberia?

Didn't exist in Baghdad,

Do I have to tell you how this works?

Do I know you?

Do it here.

Do it, and then I'll leave.

Do it!

Do it.

Do you ever want to see me again?

Do you hang them downrange, too?

Do you know how delusional you sound?

Do you want to do that here or outside?

Do you want to maybe go someplace quieter? I have a car.

Doesn't mean I'll let you kill some asshole with my gun.

Doing Gary's books for him.

Don't do that.

Don't do this. Please don't do this. Not for me.

Don't move.

Don't need one.

Done.

Drop me at the auto parts store.

Either way, it doesn't make sense.

Either way, what have you got?

Emerson, your father and you.

Enough?

Ernie Johnson.

Even after helping him become one of the largest contractors in the county.

Even if I believed Barr is innocent, it's not my job.

Every murder suspect in this town is given a choice.

Every suspect was a trained killer.

Everything that you want to know about my daughter

Exactly.

Exactly.

Excuse me, sir. There's a Jack Reacher hereto see you.

Excuse me'?

Failure. Indignity. Betrayal.

Feat.

Fibres, fingerprints, stray brass, I mean...

Finally, he's deployed to Iraq.

Find the real shooter? Reacher,

Fine as frog's hair.

For all I know, you were standing at an intersection

For James Barr, the war's over.

For only the second time in his life,

For some, it's a family trade.

Forest for the trees, Detective.

Forest for the trees.

Four random people.

Four years later, he ships out for good.

Four.

Free from debt.

From what?

From who'?

Get away real clean, too.

Get her number. Let's go!

Get him! Get him! Get him!

Get out of town for a couple of days.

Get out of town, Sandy.

Get the Zec.

Get up.

Give it to me.

Give us a few, Gary.

Go to this address.

Good enough to keep that man off death row'?

Goodbye, Detective.

Got a candidate for our shooter.

Gun ranges.

Habit.

Hands behind your back.

Hard to tell them apart.

Has gone down without a fight.

Has to be some kind of record, Detective.

Have you spoken with the other families?

Have you... Have you got a knife?

He almost got away with it, too. But I caught him. And he confessed.

He can cover both roads coming and going.

He covered his tracks well,

He did miss.

He did.

He didn't confess this time.

He doesn't care about proof.

He doesn't care about the law.

He enters the United States and simply disappears.

He has at least one friend. A very close one.

He knows what I did.

He knows where I am.

He made sniper.

He may not remember the event, he may not remember anything at all.

He might.

He only cares about what's right.

He said he had to see a guy.

He suffered a severe brain injury in state custody.

He told me you were a predator. You were supposed to start groping me.

He took a long drive almost every weekend.

He was a quiet man. Never bothered anyone.

He was in Baghdad the same time as Barr.

He was most likely thinking of her.

He would've had up on that highway bridge.

He'd be there.

He'd bought that morning

He's a classic loner. He didn't even talk to his neighbours.

He's a kind of cop.

He's about to fire six shots into a crowd of strangers.

He's not my friend.

He's not my friend. Why does everyone assume that?

He's put on overwatch.

Helen Rodin speaking.

Helen Rodin, Martin Cash.

Helen Rodin.

Helen, are you hurt?

Helen, how much of this do you honestly believe?

Helen, if you know where Reacher is, you need to tell us.

Helen, listen.

Helen?

Helen.

Hell, the camera's there

Hello, Dad.

Hello? I need some help. Hello? Hey! You!

Help! Help!

Her husband had given his life for the company.

Her obituary does the rest.

Here.

Here's the tag number. How long would it take you to run it?

Hey, Army.

Hey, Emerson.

Hey, Gunny, you mind if I ask you kind of a personal question?

Hey, Helen.

Hey, how about tonight?

Hey, I told you not to go near him.

Hey! You...

Hey. Hold on.

Hey. Outside.

Hey. That's our sister.

Hey. We love it when friends of the accused

Him.

His address, write it down.

His first trip to the United States was to attend West Point.

His pension is deposited monthly

His record is clean.

His wife said he'd grown increasingly distant of late.

Hmm.

Hold up!

How about the inside of an ambulance?

How bad was it'?

How can you trust anything he tells you?

How can you vouch for his state of mind?

How do we find this Reacher'?

How do you figure?

How do you know James Barr?

How do you know that? How did you find me here?

How do you suggest I do that?

How hard would it be? Cell phones, e mails.

How many did I...

How many wish they were born knowing what they know now?

How was your day?

How well do you know this place?

How'd you find him? How'd they find you?

Huh.

Hurt you until they have me. And that's never going to happen.

I ain't seeing you, man!

I always liked him. Always liked him.

I always use Yankees second basemen.

I am gonna take care of you.

I am just a lawyer. I'm not a cop.

I am just trying to keep him off death row.

I am not a hero. I'm a drifter with nothing to lose.

I am not a hooker!

I believe you.

I call it done. They're looking at the shooter, not the target.

I can see that I have made a terrible mistake.

I can't afford you.

I can't do this any more.

I can't find out where without a federal warrant.

I can't talk right now.

I can't. It's Jeb's car!

I chewed these fingers off

I did all right.

I did something bad.

I did what you do pretty much, with one minor difference.

I didn't come here to help him. I came here to bury him.

I didn't know that was going to happen!

I didn't say "an auto parts store."

I didn't say I was a Yankees second baseman, I just said...

I disappear.

I do.

I don't believe he did.

I don't even remember wanting to do it!

I don't have any luggage.

I don't know where he is. I have not seen him

I don't know, I swear.

I don't know. But not a Jimmie.

I don't know. He didn't come to work today.

I don't know. She just said "the auto parts store."

I don't mind the sight of blood.

I don't think he knew he was doing it.

I don't think Sandy wants the police involved...

I don't understand.

I done things before.

I ever seen this side of civilian life.

I figured five guys would do it.

I forget your name.

I get off work at six!

I got a van.

I got the picture, prints, and I'm going to the Feds.

I got this!

I guess

I handed out those targets myself. That's my scrawl on every one.

I have a warrant to search the premises.

I have faith you'll sort it out.

I have to believe the money you're making

I heard them call you the Zec.

I issued the warrant an hour ago.

I just did.

I just moved in around the back! How crazy is that?

I keep moving. Same as always.

I knew I wouldn't have to.

I know there's a bus station three miles away

I know you say he shot five people, I know he's in a coma.

I know you're in there, Emerson.

I like to have at least one alternate theory.

I like to see a man like you live a long life

I made a mistake.

I mean to beat you to death and drink your blood from a boot.

I mean, you can still use me, just tell me how to fix...

I meant, what did you learn about the victims.

I might as well set myself on fire.

I need a list of Barr's known associates.

I need backup and air support.

I need some sleep.

I need the list of all the places he hung out.

I need you to look for gun ranges between 100 and 150 miles from here.

I never saw one real shooter who would do that for his own mother.

I pulled all of this paper under my own name.

I pulled all these down as soon as I heard about the shooting.

I represent James Barr, yes.

I said, shut your mouth!

I saw a man by that name shoot for the Wimbledon Cup,

I see.

I see. It's a test.

I spent my first winter wearing a dead man's coat.

I stole your car.

I suppose that's possible.

I take you to Barr, you tell me what you know.

I think Jeb Oliver's dead.

I think maybe I should go.

I think one of them is in on it.

I think you have.

I think you've been dreading the moment

I thought I'd be pushing it if I mentioned this earlier.

I told you how serious this was.

I want to know who Barr's friends were.

I want to know why.

I want to see he gets a fair trial.

I was born in October.

I was hoping to get a better sense of who the victims were as...

I was in prison in Siberia.

I was set up.

I went down to the gun range at Hinge Creek.

I will kill this bitch if you're not here in one...

I work for Barr's attorney.

I would have parked up on the highway.

I wouldn't do that. Not till I get back.

I wouldn't make a big thing of it.

I... Wait. Which one'?

I'd like to hear it.

I'll answer one question.

I'll bet.

I'll do it. On one condition.

I'll have to contend with one or two enthusiastic wingmen.

I'll hitch a ride.

I'll look into that, thanks.

I'll pay later.

I'll tell you what.

I'm afraid I'll end up like this guy.

I'm guessing every Saturday.

I'm guessing the police are there?

I'm guessing you're the Camaro.

I'm Helen Rodin, your attorney.

I'm Helen Rodin. We spoke on the phone.

I'm just a guy who wants to be left alone.

I'm meeting some people.

I'm not a hooker.

I'm not trying to clear him,

I'm old enough to do a lot of things.

I'm on a budget, Sandy.

I'm really sorry, mister.

I'm Sandy.

I'm saving my night vision.

I'm saying it's possible that Barr had a friend.

I'm sorry, I don't remember.

I'm sorry. Could you please put a shirt on?

I'm starting to understand why you move around a lot, Reacher.

I'm the District Attorney. It's my business to know.

Ideal conditions for even an average shooter

If anything happens to you, it will happen in front of your father

If Barr wanted to get caught, he didn't miss.

If he wanted to get away with it, he likely would have

If I even think you've hurt her,

If I ever got in trouble again,

If I had a dollar for every time the Army called the Corps for help.

If I'm right, someone killed four random people

If Jack Reacher's right,

If she doesn't answer the phone when I call this number,

If someone followed you at the river today,

If that.

If they say I done it, then I did.

If you believe someone could frame Barr,

If you believe that,

If you save us and this city a long and costly trial,

If you want to end this,

Imagine it's 130 degrees on the deck and tomorrow you're going home

Imagine that feeling times 200, 000, plus 50, 000 more.

Imagine that feeling. Days. Weeks. Years.

Imagine you've spent your whole life in other parts of the world

Impeccable tailoring.

In 1925.

In cold blood.

In fact, she should have left the week before.

In the Military Police. By all accounts, a brilliant investigator.

In the same building where Rita worked.

Inappropriate?

Including millions of dollars in missing public funds.

Iraq. Afghanistan. The Balkans. You name it.

Is he the sort to light out like that?

Is in danger now.

Is it true?

Is Jeb home?

Is more worried about your range than she is about the pool in her backyard

Is right here.

Is she a good kisser?

Is that random?

Is that true?

Is this a privileged conversation?

Is this Reacher?

Is this Reacher?

Is this what you base your conclusions on?

Is to put you in protective custody right now.

It also makes people who aren't necessarily smart seem smart

It doesn't even matter how much I can prove.

It doesn't matter how much I believe.

It is a perishable skill.

It makes no difference now.

It only matters how much is true.

It was 28 women, ages 54 on down to 11.

It was Jeb.

It was just a bar fight.

It was probably a cop. And I highly doubt...

It was staring me right in the face.

It was such a great crime scene.

It went exactly the way I think

It'll be about his ability to stand trial.

It's a convincing theory.

It's a good story, actually.

It's a great joke, but I'm going to beat your ass.

It's a noble crusade.

It's a personal matter.

It's as if Lebendauer Enterprises were above reproach.

It's bullshit, though. He cooks crystal.

It's getting late.

It's Helen.

It's just over?

It's just what girls like me do.

It's kind of loud in here.

It's life or death now, James.

It's not a cop.

It's okay. You're okay.

It's perfect.

It's registered to a company called Lebendauer Enterprises.

It's the serial number on Barr's rifle.

It's the way you live, the way you move around.

It's three against one.

It's wild.

It's you. The guy from the car.

It's your boyfriend.

It's your last chance to walk away.

Jack Reacher,

James Barr is innocent.

James Barr should die.

James Barr was a sniper. Not the best, not the worst.

James Barr was one of those.

James Barr.

James Barr.

James Barr.

James,

Jeb Oliver.

Jesus, Helen.

Jesus, how hard did you hit him?

Jesus! My hand!

Jesus.

Jimmie Reese.

Just ahead of major civic redevelopment.

Just as likely.

Just because I saw you shoot ten years ago

Just don't hurt me.

Just give me three hours to get back.

Just hand over the phone.

Just hang up the phone and report it missing.

Just like sane people do.

Just one, but I took care of it.

Just spent the weekend at what they call a **** rally.

Just tell me what I have to do.

Just, look. Listen.

Keys.

Last Friday, five of them converged on a single spot and died together.

Last I heard, he lived around here somewhere and I...

Let go of me.

Let's get going

Let's get this done.

Let's go.

Let's go.

Let's go.

Let's say winner take all.

Like I said, it's damn fine work.

Like Oline Archer.

Limit your search to ranges longer than 300 yards.

Linsky.

Listen to me, you prick.

Listen, Helen, they're not gonna

Listen, I wasn't... I didn't know.

Listen.

Local people. My guys.

Look at me when I'm talking to you!

Look at the people.

Look out the window.

Look, I don't know the type of people you normally associate with, Reacher.

Look, I'm not gonna fight this.

Look, the point is,

Made him feel like King Shit having his name up on your wall.

Man on a flying horse could see that.

Marco was now an honour student.

Maybe Barr let him.

Maybe get some of that freedom for yourself.

Maybe he should.

Maybe we can grab a drink sometime.

Maybe we could...

Maybe with a friend.

Maybe you can coach soccer.

Maybe.

Meanwhile, I am an old man in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Meanwhile, your eyewitness described a pause

Mind if I share your table?

Mmm hmm.

Mmm. This franchise was yours to manage.

More like some Corrections flunky threw him to the wolves.

Mother was a French national, father in the Corps.

Move!

Muscle memory.

My bus is leaving. You better hurry, counsellor.

My firm has reason to believe more than one innocent man

My hand, man. They're in my pock... Aah!

My job is to present the jury with reasonable doubt. Period.

My lead investigator has complete access to the evidence. All of it.

My life, your daughter's life,

My point is that two of the victims weren't there strictly by chance.

Name it.

Name of Reacher. Some sort of top shelf Army cop.

Nancy Holt's last words to her husband were a lie.

Neither one.

Never heard of him.

Next I know, his mom woke up from a bender

Next, you have those who just need a job.

Nice meeting you.

No bars, no strip joints, nothing. Pretty much just gas and groceries.

NO camera.

No credit cards, no credit history. No P.O. box, cell phone, e mail.

No driver's license, current or expired. No residence, current or former.

No matter how absurd I find all of this.

No matter how much I wanted it to be true.

NO one can.

No one stopped to think it might be too great.

No parking meter.

No point looking any further.

No shit.

No trace evidence left behind. And his escape is assured.

No way.

No way. Not till you answer some questions.

No, he was murdered.

No, I have work to do.

No, no, man. He'd never leave his moms alone.

No, of course not. I...

No, sir. I'll start shooting when he does.

No, thanks. Don't need to.

No, this is my problem now. I'll handle it.

No, those guys assaulted Reacher.

No, we sure don't.

No.

No.

No. A hooker would get the joke.

No. I'm a pacifist.

No. Not my father. The Office of the District Attorney.

No. What if I need you? How will I find you?

No. You are not allowed back in here, man!

No... Come on, you've got to be kidding.

Nobody would have thought to dump that meter.

None you're currently breaking.

Normally someone in my position would want the jury

Not according to Social Security

Not any more.

Not because Barr was smart, but because he was trained.

Not Emerson.

Not even Barr's own defence attorney.

Not even me.

Not if you lend me your car.

Not that way.

Not your father.

Nothing.

Now I guess all bets are off.

Now look at my face.

Now look at the silver Audi across the street,

Now look at your friends.

Now say you believe me.

Now tell me which ones are free.

Now we know who's who.

Now you will have to convince him to forget, for your sake

Now,

Now, 99% of the evidence your father has against Barr

Now, I don't know what kind of man you are,

Now, I'm not saying that he couldn't have killed

Now, the police didn't talk to you, did they?

Now, this is how it's going to work. You're gonna give me the address

Now, you find that friend, you'll find the real shooter.

Now, you seem like a sweet girl.

Now, your shooter will be

Obviously, you don't find this guy unless he wants to be found.

Obviously.

Of course, I could be wrong. If you think I am,

Of course, it's a client conference. Nothing you say here can be repeated.

Of course.

Oh, come on, don't break my heart.

Oh, come on! A guy this hard to find? Gotta be wanted for something.

Oh, didn't you?

Oh, God, I just don't believe it. I don't believe it!

Oh, I don't need to.
