00:00:05Welcome to High Card Hustle.
00:00:07I'm rich! I won! I actually won!
00:00:11No! No! Please don't take my hand!
00:00:18My name is Liam, an S-Class Hustler.
00:00:22In this world, cards aren't just gambling tools.
00:00:26They're power, wealth, and magic itself.
00:00:31Every day, fortunes rise and fall.
00:00:35Winners are crowned, and fools lose everything.
00:00:40Oh, you ask about me? I never lose.
00:00:44I am Liam, the Phantom Ace, the greatest Hustler alive.
00:00:49Hey! Liam's cheating!
00:00:53Hustlers lose a hand!
00:00:59Wait! Wait! You have to search me! You have to search me first!
00:01:09What's going on here?
00:01:10The dealer found a marked card.
00:01:12Someone was mixing them into the deck.
00:01:14The rest of us were searched already. That only leaves him!
00:01:22You picked the wrong house, Hotshot.
00:01:24New blood like you doesn't last five minutes in a place like this.
00:01:33Unless he thinks he's the Phantom Ace.
00:01:36Is he the Phantom Ace?
00:01:39Please. The masked Phantom Ace mastered all 28 tricks, and vanished from the gambling underworld years ago.
00:01:47Exactly. This little punk couldn't palm a dinner roll without getting caught.
00:01:54Search him anyway. Let's see what this rookie's hiding.
00:01:59Jesus, Liam.
00:02:01Professor Alden.
00:02:02You'd think the star student of a Master Hustler would be more careful than to cheat in a place like
00:02:06this.
00:02:06What aren't you saying? Speak up!
00:02:09I don't know him.
00:02:10But I played this table earlier.
00:02:13If you're gonna search him, search me as well.
00:02:34Satisfied?
00:02:36Pants two!
00:02:39Hold it.
00:02:41I found something.
00:02:47Listen, I'm a Master Hustler.
00:02:49Cards, dice, gears.
00:02:51I can be of use to you.
00:02:52I can teach you what I know.
00:02:54Master Hustler, huh?
00:02:55Is that so?
00:03:02Everyone out!
00:03:08Keep my girls safe!
00:03:12Keep my girls safe!
00:03:15ALDEN!
00:03:23That night still haunts me.
00:03:25Even after all this time, I don't know who Alden wanted me to keep safe.
00:03:34I'm coming.
00:03:36I'm coming!
00:03:39I'm coming!
00:03:49Professor Stone, I need your help.
00:03:55You need...
00:03:57You need a minute.
00:04:00Or...
00:04:03Office hours are...
00:04:06Um...
00:04:07Um...
00:04:07Ten to twelve.
00:04:13You lost two million dollars in a game with a one dollar buy-in?
00:04:16Lost is not the right word.
00:04:18My father also taught statistics.
00:04:20What are the chances the same player pulls four of a kind twice in a row?
00:04:26Improbable is not impossible.
00:04:28I have a photographic memory and a knack for counting cards.
00:04:31There were four aces on the table and one in my hand.
00:04:33What does that tell you?
00:04:34Tells me you tried to hustle and got hustled.
00:04:37I know that casino.
00:04:38Be grateful you still have two hands.
00:04:41Listen, Miss...
00:04:42Briar.
00:04:44These people stole all the money my father left me when he died and now the mob is hounding me
00:04:47for the rest of the payment.
00:05:03I came to you because I want to learn how to out-hustle those hustlers and win my money back.
00:05:07I was told you're the best.
00:05:08Well, besides the Phantom Ace.
00:05:11Who told you I'm the best?
00:05:15My father.
00:05:17Your father?
00:05:19Was Alden?
00:05:21Keep my girls safe!
00:05:24Keep my girls safe!
00:05:29Alden!
00:05:31Yes.
00:05:33I'm Alden's little girl.
00:05:35Or I was.
00:05:39So...
00:05:39You'll help me?
00:05:44This is the place where Professor Alden died.
00:05:48Where I buried the worst night of my life.
00:05:50And the only one I swore I'd never use again.
00:05:57You ready to take this place down?
00:06:01More than you know.
00:06:14Thanks.
00:06:20You ready?
00:06:23Let me go!
00:06:29I'll be fine.
00:06:29yours finished number 6.シュette
00:06:30You ancient Carn
00:06:30produção place as you three sides of the door. By... you
00:06:32do!
00:06:32As long as
00:06:49Are you hitting on my girlfriend?
00:06:51What?
00:06:51No!
00:06:52Of course not!
00:06:54No!
00:06:56No!
00:07:03It's them!
00:07:04Those two stole my money!
00:07:12Think fast and keep your cool.
00:07:15Tell me, what's the first rule of hustling?
00:07:27A good hustler identifies their target's core weakness within moments of meeting them.
00:07:33You have to pay attention.
00:07:43There's a lot to glean in a glance.
00:07:55Quick.
00:07:57What do you see?
00:07:58Vivian St. Clair.
00:08:00She draws a lot of attention to her body.
00:08:02Maybe to appear confident.
00:08:04Vain.
00:08:05But she's not.
00:08:07She's nervous.
00:08:08Concerned for her boutique?
00:08:10Is it doing well?
00:08:23Briar Thorne.
00:08:25Back to lose more money?
00:08:26Tell me.
00:08:28Who's your boyfriend?
00:08:37Fiance, actually.
00:09:07Oh, wow.
00:09:08Vivian came from Vivian's boutique, mooching off his new girlfriend since his wife left.
00:09:12That's his weak point.
00:09:16Why would I do that?
00:09:18Got everything I need right here.
00:09:23Hey, that's my girlfriend.
00:09:24I'm going to win back everything you took from my briar, and then some.
00:09:29With what?
00:09:30That professor salary?
00:09:31Careful.
00:09:32He's not just some professor.
00:09:33His teacher was the phantom ace.
00:09:42Oh, honey.
00:09:43The phantom ace was a masked king of the table.
00:09:47Your fiance looks like he grades papers by candlelight and cries after.
00:09:51I don't care who he is.
00:09:52It's time to play.
00:10:14Let the games begin.
00:10:22See you at the table, tiger.
00:10:31You ready?
00:10:36Ready?
00:10:37Hey.
00:10:39You dropped this earlier.
00:10:41I didn't realize.
00:10:45More chips, please.
00:10:53No.
00:10:54You can't.
00:10:56You're going to lose.
00:10:58Do you want us to have nothing left?
00:11:01Just stand there and look pretty.
00:11:04Forgive my fiance.
00:11:06She's young and inexperienced.
00:11:08That's why she lost.
00:11:10Besides, I'm the better player.
00:11:12I'm naturally lucky.
00:11:14Naturally lucky, of course.
00:11:16Much more believable than Briar's little phantom ace fantasy.
00:11:20If he knows the phantom ace, I'm the queen of hearts.
00:11:37What do you know of both?
00:11:40To the victor goes the spore.
00:11:46To the victor goes the spore.
00:11:48Like I said, I'm just lucky.
00:11:56That kind of timing.
00:11:57I've only heard of one hustler who could read a table that fast.
00:12:01Oh, please.
00:12:01I'm only saying, the last man I saw read a table that clean for a black mask.
00:12:06Then maybe clean your monocall.
00:12:07This man is not the phantom ace.
00:12:09Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
00:12:11What the hell?
00:12:12There's no way he's the legendary phantom ace.
00:12:15The real ace never showed his face.
00:12:17That's gotta be luck.
00:12:18Right?
00:12:19Enough whispering.
00:12:21Let's play.
00:12:38All right.
00:12:39Let's see what I've got.
00:12:48Classic discards for you.
00:12:52Left.
00:12:53That means...
00:13:10His golden set is on his right.
00:13:27Just as I thought, they work the table as a team.
00:13:30Vivian has a work wife.
00:13:42The work wife?
00:13:44Really?
00:13:45Because they're working the table.
00:13:47Get it?
00:13:49Look, maybe it's not the coolest name, but it's the most common way to cheat at cards.
00:13:55Two hustlers working together can give each other a huge advantage.
00:14:00Then if that's true, why shouldn't I play at the table beside you?
00:14:04Our biggest advantage is them thinking they have the upper hand.
00:14:07As my doling girlfriend, you can observe their plays and feed me information while they think I'm not paying attention.
00:14:14Ha ha ha ha.
00:14:16Girlfriend?
00:14:17Easy there.
00:14:18We haven't even had coffee.
00:14:27Technique zero?
00:14:30Method act.
00:14:32If your opponent's a hustler, always stay in character.
00:14:39These assholes think we're just some dumb ruse.
00:14:42A sexist jerk and his over-emotional wife.
00:14:45Little do they know.
00:14:47That's why they'll lose.
00:14:57Shit.
00:14:59Slipped through my fingers.
00:15:00Hold your fingers like this.
00:15:02Again?
00:15:16One of the phantom aces tricks?
00:15:18One of the phantom aces tricks?
00:15:20It's a card trick.
00:15:22That cut paper in half and stabbed your chalkboard?
00:15:25A good card trick.
00:15:27The real trick is...
00:15:31Figuring out how to exchange cards covertly.
00:15:36About that, what if you slapped me?
00:15:41You want me...
00:15:43No, I don't want people to think I abuse you.
00:15:46Well...
00:15:47The over-emotional girlfriend, over-confident sexist boyfriend thing.
00:15:51It fits the M.O. you crafted.
00:15:53Plus I'm not... not into a little love tap from time to time.
00:16:00I'm getting bored.
00:16:01How about we make things more interesting?
00:16:04One hundred thousand.
00:16:06Unless you're not man enough.
00:16:12Stop!
00:16:13They upped the bet to lure you in.
00:16:15That's exactly how they got me.
00:16:16Get off me!
00:16:35That fall, she hit something.
00:16:37Do you really think this little lover's quarrel is a phantom aces technique?
00:16:40Please.
00:16:41The phantom aces had elegance.
00:16:43That was just ugly.
00:16:48It's alright, I'm fine.
00:16:52Are you fine?
00:16:55Oh, you have no idea.
00:17:00He's being dramatic.
00:17:01Women, right?
00:17:02The phantom ace would never lose control over a crying girl.
00:17:07I raise to two hundred thousand.
00:17:10If you can't meet the bet, get out.
00:17:17This is a low stakes table.
00:17:20I don't do low stakes.
00:17:22Boring is for the poor.
00:17:24Careful.
00:17:24You may be one of those poor soon enough.
00:17:27This is the deed to St. Clair's.
00:17:29Surely you've heard of it.
00:17:33It's only the most prestigious clothing store on the west coast.
00:17:36All the most famous celebrities shop there.
00:17:39Are you sure you want to bet that?
00:17:40Of course.
00:17:41It's a sure bet.
00:17:43Why?
00:17:43Can't ant up?
00:17:44You could always take a loan from the casino.
00:17:48No.
00:17:49No.
00:17:51No.
00:17:51No.
00:17:51Come here, honey.
00:17:52I need to borrow your engagement ring.
00:17:59Her engagement ring?
00:18:10Bets with sentimental value can sometimes guilt the other players into folding early.
00:18:17Or if you're playing other hustlers.
00:18:28Professor!
00:18:29Liam!
00:18:30I don't know what to say.
00:18:32It throws them off their game.
00:18:38That was part of the lesson.
00:18:39I totally knew that.
00:18:50She'll come back once I win.
00:18:54What, are we supposed to be impressed?
00:18:57The Phantom Ace was a legend.
00:18:59This man is just humiliating his fiancée in public.
00:19:02Exactly.
00:19:03No legend needs a woman's tears to win a hand.
00:19:06Sorry, but a ring?
00:19:08How much could that possibly be worth?
00:19:09I've been in my family ten generations.
00:19:13My grandmother smuggled it out of Germany while fleeing the Nazis.
00:19:23Looks authentic.
00:19:24Worth at least 2.2 million.
00:19:37He's betting away his grandmother's Holocaust ring?
00:19:39What kind of monster is he?
00:19:41He's a stupid one, that's for sure.
00:19:43We're going to be so rich.
00:20:00Those aces are interesting.
00:20:03Care to go fish?
00:20:20Time for the showdown.
00:20:25Guess I'm the one who's naturally lucky.
00:20:39Sure about that?
00:20:40Not even the Phantom Ace can beat four aces with that board.
00:20:44Show the cards!
00:20:46Show the cards!
00:20:47Show the cards!
00:20:48Show the cards!
00:20:49Show the cards!
00:20:57No way he has a two.
00:20:59That would be a one in a million chance.
00:21:22Please!
00:21:23I'm innocent!
00:21:24I'm innocent!
00:21:24This is just an unfortunate misunderstanding.
00:21:25I don't know where that deck of cards came from.
00:21:28It's not even mine!
00:21:29You were caught cheating at Sin and Cypher Casino.
00:21:32A casino with a steep punishment for hustling.
00:21:36Please!
00:21:37Forgive me!
00:21:38I'm too young and pretty to die!
00:21:40Enough, Viviana.
00:21:42I have no need of seeing you dead.
00:21:44Your boutiques, on the other hand, do spark interest.
00:21:49Of course!
00:21:50They're yours!
00:21:51Anything you want, just don't kill me!
00:21:54Why would I do that?
00:21:56I have another use for you.
00:22:14Straight flush beats four aces.
00:22:17The pot is yours.
00:22:20Looks like I won.
00:22:24Straight flush against four aces.
00:22:27That's phantom ace luck.
00:22:31An unlikely victory!
00:22:34No!
00:22:35This man is a cheater, not a legend!
00:22:45Double or nothing.
00:22:47I have two more boutiques I can bet with.
00:22:53What are you doing?
00:22:54He could get lucky again.
00:22:56Remember, those stores aren't yours to lose.
00:22:58Be for real, Kelvin.
00:23:00I can feel it in my bones.
00:23:01He walked us into that hand.
00:23:03So what?
00:23:04You think Briar was right?
00:23:05No.
00:23:06Don't be stupid.
00:23:07The phantom ackle would never show his face.
00:23:10Then who is he?
00:23:12A hustler.
00:23:14And a damn good one.
00:23:19What do you say?
00:23:24All we have to do is prove he's cheating.
00:23:36Let me guess.
00:23:37Quit while you're ahead?
00:23:38Exactly.
00:23:40Gambling changes a person's brain chemistry.
00:23:44They think a win is right around the corner, so they bet anything.
00:23:49They bet anything and everything.
00:23:53If that's true, that means we'll have an easier time cleaning house.
00:23:59You're a clever girl, but that mentality will get you killed.
00:24:03A hustler is just a gambler who got tired of losing.
00:24:06You've rigged the game, but that only means the stakes are higher.
00:24:12Is that why you gave it up?
00:24:13Keep my girls safe!
00:24:18Elden!
00:24:21Something like that.
00:24:27Nah, I'd rather not.
00:24:30I've taken enough of your assets for the day.
00:24:33You can't quit!
00:24:34Don't you know that's rude?
00:24:36Get a chance to win some back!
00:24:38What, you win one impossible hand and run?
00:24:40Some phantom ace you are.
00:24:42The real phantom ace never feared a table.
00:24:4916!
00:24:50That's the number of employees that will be jobless if you liquidate my business.
00:24:54What will I tell them?
00:24:55You just bet the fates of another two stores worth of employees.
00:24:58I was desperate, okay?
00:25:00At least let me buy it back.
00:25:01I'll give you anything.
00:25:03I'll give you my body!
00:25:08That's right.
00:25:09Give me the deed.
00:25:11And my body is yours.
00:25:15Did Vivian St. Clear just whore herself out?
00:25:18Like I said,
00:25:20you have nothing left I want.
00:25:24You're too good for me, is that it?
00:25:27He'll play you again!
00:25:33If he doesn't, we're through.
00:25:36What are you doing?
00:25:37We got your money back.
00:25:39We're done here.
00:25:39We only have her money.
00:25:41They both scammed me.
00:25:43You're letting Kelvin off with barely a scratch.
00:25:44If you don't do it, I will!
00:25:46No!
00:25:46Keep my girls safe!
00:25:49Elder!
00:25:55I'll do it.
00:25:56I'll take the deal.
00:25:57I'll keep playing.
00:25:58There he is.
00:26:00Briar's masked miracle man.
00:26:02Careful, Vivian.
00:26:03Keep saying it and you might start believing it.
00:26:05Nobody believes it.
00:26:06Then you've got nothing to worry about.
00:26:12I can't believe they were dumb enough to fall for my bait.
00:26:22Shit.
00:26:24That was supposed to be an ace.
00:26:26It's so hard to tell what's coming out next.
00:26:29Give me the card.
00:26:30Hustlers perforate the edges of a golden set with the subtlest abnormalities.
00:26:39Feel the bumps?
00:26:41Yeah, it's subtle.
00:26:43Those bumps are a language.
00:26:45That one's a king.
00:26:47And this one's an ace.
00:26:51A good hustler learns to communicate on multiple levels.
00:27:04The game begins anew.
00:27:06Don't expect better luck this time.
00:27:08You playing too, or are you just here for moral support?
00:27:12I played last time, yeah?
00:27:13Yeah, but you quietly folded right before things got hot.
00:27:17Speaking of, is that why your first wife left?
00:27:19The fuck you just say?
00:27:23Guess the problem wasn't passion.
00:27:26What the hell, Viv?
00:27:27Let me at him!
00:27:27He's trying to bait you into making a mistake.
00:27:29Let him think he's playing you.
00:27:30I'll sit back this time to keep an eye out.
00:27:34Be careful what you wish for.
00:27:36Something tells me your luck has run out.
00:27:57He spent this whole game just staring at his cards.
00:28:03What's his secret?
00:28:27What's his secret?
00:28:30Catch on to our strategy.
00:28:31They're hustlers.
00:28:33They're gonna realize they're being played.
00:28:35They might, but that's just when the fun begins.
00:28:40She's been his eyes all along!
00:28:43It's the girl.
00:28:44She's his eyes.
00:28:45His work life.
00:28:46She's been tapping his shoulder to feed him tips.
00:28:48From where she's standing, I think she can see our cards.
00:28:51But how does he come up with a winning hand every time?
00:28:53I'm not sure.
00:28:54He's barely moved.
00:28:56Could it be he's moving too fast to see with the naked eye?
00:28:58Only the phantom can pull something like this off.
00:29:00I'm telling you!
00:29:02No.
00:29:03Not the ace, but I think we're dealing with a master hustler.
00:29:06Shit.
00:29:06But the cards have to be on him, right?
00:29:08All we need to do now is force a search.
00:29:184 million.
00:29:20Go ahead and try me.
00:29:24Liam Stone.
00:29:27I'm on to you.
00:29:36I'm out.
00:29:38What about you?
00:29:39Still in?
00:29:43What's the interest on taking out a loan to keep playing?
00:29:46You can't!
00:29:49The casino owner wants people to enjoy themselves.
00:29:52If you pay it off the same day, it's zero interest.
00:29:55And in 24 hours?
00:29:5725% and then 10% for every additional day the debt is outstanding.
00:30:01Oh, a very generous deal.
00:30:02All right.
00:30:03Four million dollar loan.
00:30:12He's definitely cheating.
00:30:14He signed that contract without any hesitation at all.
00:30:17Either he's suicidal or he already knows the cards.
00:30:20All right.
00:30:22Time for the showdown.
00:30:33Four of a kind, thanks to Viviana swapping a card with me.
00:30:37The odds of a player getting four of a kind are one in about 4,000 hands.
00:30:41The chance of two players getting four of a kind round is one in 2.7 million if he beats
00:30:46this too.
00:30:48No, not even the phantom acel could be that clean.
00:30:55I've got it now.
00:31:00Cheater!
00:31:02Liam Stone!
00:31:04I accuse you of planting cards!
00:31:07No one beats four of a kind twice without a plant.
00:31:10Not you.
00:31:11Not even the phantom acel.
00:31:14All right, punk.
00:31:15Let's see how smug you look with only one hand.
00:31:24I can do it myself, creep.
00:31:26You better.
00:31:27The rules of the Rusty Cleaver Casino state that anyone accused of cheating must be stripped of their clothes to
00:31:32confirm they're not hiding cards.
00:31:34We'll get to the bottom of this.
00:31:35If I find any evidence of cheating, the culprit will lose a hand.
00:31:38And the aggrieved will recoup all their losses for the day.
00:31:41Your shirt, please.
00:32:02Wait, where have I seen that tattoo before?
00:32:06Is he that little punk from six years ago?
00:32:13Nothing in his shirt.
00:32:14Make sure he drops his trousers too.
00:32:17I want to see everything he's hiding.
00:32:20Careful about hollow accusations, Vivian.
00:32:22Dealer, what's the punishment for false claims?
00:32:25The accuser must forfeit three fingers.
00:32:32What?
00:32:39He had nothing in his shirt.
00:32:41If there's nothing in his pants, I'm cooked.
00:32:43Wait.
00:32:44Why does he always hand his clothes to her first?
00:32:50Search his bitch too!
00:32:52She's helping him hide his card!
00:32:57What?
00:33:04Wait!
00:33:05You can't search her!
00:33:07Why not?
00:33:08Something to hide?
00:33:09I didn't even touch the table!
00:33:12What do you think?
00:33:13The lady doth protest too much.
00:33:15Oh, I think she doth.
00:33:21In front of all these people?
00:33:23Cheating disputes are done out in the open for transparency's sake.
00:33:27Fuck your transparency!
00:33:30What happened to that sweet little crybaby you were ten seconds ago?
00:33:33I'll make you cry, baby!
00:33:36Failure to comply will be taken as a mission!
00:33:39Fine!
00:33:40Fine!
00:33:41I'll do it!
00:33:41Get off me!
00:33:50Come on.
00:33:51Everything off, you two.
00:33:53Go ahead and give us a show.
00:33:55Let's see if our faux Phantom Ace has anything thing up his sleeve.
00:33:59Or under her's.
00:34:25Yeah, yeah.
00:34:26It's huge, I know.
00:34:27Are we done here?
00:34:28You want us to shed our skin too?
00:34:30No evidence was found.
00:34:32You're free to leave.
00:34:37That was thorough.
00:34:39And still nothing.
00:34:40At a certain point, doesn't luck start looking like skill?
00:34:47Don't flatter yourself.
00:34:49Why not?
00:34:50You keep bringing up the Phantom Ace.
00:34:51Why can't I be him?
00:34:53Because the Phantom Ace was a ghost in a black mask.
00:34:55You're a half-naked statistics professor with a rabbit tattoo.
00:35:00And yet, I'm the one leaving with your money.
00:35:02You can't do this!
00:35:04I need all my fingers!
00:35:05Please!
00:35:12Please!
00:35:13The rest of my cards were already gone after the last round.
00:35:15The rest I hid right under their nose, bouncing their cards into the brass run-out rail beneath the lip
00:35:20of the table as they continued playing with my cards.
00:35:23None the wiser.
00:35:31Until the only cheat cards I had left on me were in my hand.
00:35:37I don't know how you did it, but I'm gonna prove you're cheating, scum!
00:35:41You're dead meat!
00:35:44If you want to find evidence of cheating, check their side of the table.
00:35:50What?
00:35:59Shit!
00:36:00We're getting our hands cut off for sure!
00:36:17You did it.
00:36:19Perfect throw.
00:36:21You're ready now.
00:36:22Tomorrow we get your revenge.
00:36:26What if they get caught cheating?
00:36:28You feeling bad for the people who robbed you?
00:36:34Elder!
00:36:42Sometimes, when a person gets the itch bad enough, pain is the only wake-up call.
00:36:47The itch?
00:36:48To keep hustling.
00:36:50Keep winning.
00:36:51You stop thinking about the cost until it's right in front of you.
00:36:55By then, it's too late.
00:37:02Please stop!
00:37:04Please!
00:37:05Please!
00:37:06I'll do anything!
00:37:07You assholes!
00:37:09Unhand me!
00:37:11Oof.
00:37:11Very poor choice of words.
00:37:19Oh, God!
00:37:21No!
00:37:22I used that hand!
00:37:27Stop!
00:37:33This casino is the property of Red Mask.
00:37:36I am Red Mask's most trusted associate.
00:37:39Those two are with me.
00:37:57To sweet revenge.
00:38:00To being filthy rich.
00:38:02To being filthy rich.
00:38:06To being filthy rich.
00:38:08What are you looking at?
00:38:10Mistletoe.
00:38:11What?
00:38:12There's no...
00:38:17Elder!
00:38:22I'm sorry, Liam.
00:38:24I...
00:38:27No.
00:38:29It's okay.
00:38:29I just...
00:38:30Can't.
00:38:31We can't.
00:38:32But...
00:38:33Why?
00:38:34It's not like I'm actually your student.
00:38:37But...
00:38:41That old thing still works?
00:38:44It's not supposed to.
00:38:46Who is this?
00:38:48I thought you looked familiar.
00:38:49You're not the Phantom Ace.
00:38:52But when I saw that tattoo, I knew exactly which coward you were!
00:38:56I know what you...
00:38:59Haven't the foggiest what you're talking about.
00:39:01Neither does she, I'm sure.
00:39:03Join me at Sin and Cipher's VIP lounge in two days' time.
00:39:06We'll see which one of us is the better hustler.
00:39:08Otherwise, I tell your precious fiancé that you got her daddy killed.
00:39:20What is Sin and Cipher?
00:39:24It's a casino that's even more strict on cheating than the last.
00:39:28More strict than losing a hand?
00:39:31What, do they just shoot you?
00:39:37The security in that place is harder to break than Fort Nock.
00:39:41Before you can get in, they scan you from head to toe for oddity.
00:39:47Nothing gets past them.
00:39:50Oh, and before we go any further,
00:39:52don't mention I have anything to do with the Phantom Ace.
00:39:55Then stop winning like him.
00:40:01We're gonna have to search you.
00:40:09It's just a hearing aid.
00:40:12I've had it since I was a child.
00:40:17Then, if you do manage to sneak something past them,
00:40:20every dealer in that joint uses a handcrafted custom set of cards
00:40:23totally unique to them making it impossible to replicate.
00:40:33Maybe for someone else.
00:40:43That's good.
00:40:48You're gonna need that confidence if you're gonna play for me at the table.
00:40:52You want me to what?
00:40:54Oh, fuck yeah!
00:41:05See anything?
00:41:07I'm not even sure what I'm looking for here.
00:41:10If Kelvin chose this place to cheat,
00:41:12it means he has a mechanic.
00:41:15Mechanic?
00:41:29You don't need to cheat if someone else fixes your cards.
00:41:32Just watch that VIP door and tell me where else the dealer goes.
00:41:46I think I've spotted her.
00:41:48Remember,
00:41:49observe your mark.
00:41:51Name is Regina.
00:41:52Nervous energy with more cats than she knows what to do with.
00:41:55Got a few scars that suggest she's coping with a serious drug problem.
00:41:58Not that she'd ever tell you about it.
00:42:00She's terrible at parties.
00:42:02Phenomenal in the bedroom.
00:42:03You got all that from a glance.
00:42:04Not exactly.
00:42:06She's my ex.
00:42:09Your what?
00:42:13Relax.
00:42:15It was a long time ago and it was mostly just sex.
00:42:17Mostly?
00:42:22Regina!
00:42:23Hi!
00:42:24So weird bumping into you here.
00:42:26You look...
00:42:27amazing.
00:42:28What are you doing?
00:42:29If she's your ex,
00:42:30you should steer clear.
00:42:36Briar.
00:42:37What are you doing here?
00:42:39Same reason anyone else is here.
00:42:41Money, money, money!
00:42:42I saw you and thought,
00:42:43oops, awkward.
00:42:44I figured I'd just, um,
00:42:45break the ice?
00:42:46Yeah, um,
00:42:48I gotta go.
00:42:50I take it it wasn't a clean break.
00:42:52Something like that.
00:42:55Heads up.
00:42:56She's beelining to the Bladjack table.
00:42:59You might have to take this.
00:43:01Uh, that wasn't the plan.
00:43:03You have to play at her table.
00:43:05It's her cards that we have to copy.
00:43:07You're a human camera.
00:43:09You can't make me hustle my ex!
00:43:11Shh!
00:43:11Not so loud.
00:43:12Someone might hear you.
00:43:14No one's around!
00:43:16No one's around!
00:43:27Magnify five.
00:43:28And play about the last ten seconds, please.
00:43:31That wasn't the plan.
00:43:34You're a human camera.
00:43:35Who is he talking to?
00:43:38Oh, shit.
00:43:39I think he has an earpiece.
00:43:42Find out who's on the other end
00:43:43and bring them both to me.
00:43:52You think because we dated,
00:43:54I'm gonna help you?
00:43:55No.
00:43:57Of course not.
00:43:58I'm just here to play.
00:44:00Can't I just play?
00:44:03Sure.
00:44:10Remember, you don't need to win.
00:44:12You just need to stay there long enough
00:44:14to memorize what each card looks like.
00:44:19Are you kidding?
00:44:20This is Blackjack.
00:44:21Remember what I told you when we first met?
00:44:24It's what I'm best at.
00:44:35Hit me.
00:44:49Someone's having a lucky day.
00:44:54Don't be so obvious.
00:44:56It's not the other players
00:44:57or even the dealer
00:44:58that you're trying to beat here.
00:45:02It's the enforcers.
00:45:06Remember, Sin and Cypher
00:45:07doesn't play around.
00:45:10It's not their hand thereafter
00:45:11if they catch you.
00:45:17Here,
00:45:17they come for your throat.
00:45:21Excuse me.
00:45:23Who are you talking to?
00:45:44I just need a few more cards to show up at the table
00:45:47and I'll have every design in Regina's deck.
00:45:50Hit me.
00:45:51Do you have to keep saying it like that?
00:45:53Like what?
00:45:54Hit me.
00:45:57He's claiming to be a bartender.
00:45:59The notebook and pens seem consistent with that.
00:46:01But something's off.
00:46:02Why does he have a house receiver?
00:46:04Is that gunpowder under his fingernails?
00:46:08He's an enforcer.
00:46:09I'm a hustler's worst nightmare.
00:46:12Come on, Briar.
00:46:13Hurry it up.
00:46:17What's wrong with saying,
00:46:19hit me?
00:46:20Used to say that when we made love.
00:46:25Jesus, Regina.
00:46:27It was two weeks, freshman year.
00:46:41Fuck.
00:46:43Briar.
00:46:44Get out of there now!
00:46:49Stay right where you are.
00:46:50You.
00:46:51Let me see your ear.
00:46:53Excuse me?
00:47:02What the hell is this?
00:47:04That's my hearing aid, asshole!
00:47:07Hello?
00:47:12I'm reporting this place on Yelp!
00:47:16You're gonna go?
00:47:18Just like that?
00:47:20We don't work, Regina!
00:47:22Fix your drug problem!
00:47:28I told you the decoy was a good idea.
00:47:32You'll make a master hustler yet.
00:47:45Nice tip, bitch.
00:47:57Not so fast.
00:47:59You want some candy?
00:48:00You're gonna help us win tomorrow.
00:48:23Good work out there, master hustler.
00:48:25You've come a long way.
00:48:29If I didn't know any better,
00:48:30I'd think you're the Phantom Ace.
00:48:36Thanks.
00:48:37We make a great team.
00:48:45I think we should probably call it a night.
00:48:47I have some tests to grade for next week.
00:48:50Don't we still have to plan tomorrow's hustle?
00:48:52We can do that in the morning.
00:49:00Why are you so afraid that I might get close to you?
00:49:15Alden.
00:49:19My dad?
00:49:20Before he died, he made me to protect you.
00:49:22We're not... I want to, but...
00:49:23Liam, it's okay.
00:49:25I want this.
00:49:27I made a promise to take care of you.
00:49:29I'm sorry.
00:49:31You should go.
00:49:39I'm not some fragile little girl.
00:49:41We are both adults.
00:49:42I make my own choices, and the risks I take are mine.
00:49:45Got it?
00:49:45Arya, I ordered you to go.
00:49:49Thing is, Teach, I was never too good at school.
00:49:53For whatever reason, I had trouble following directions.
00:49:55I am way better at giving them.
00:49:57I shouldn't.
00:49:59I can't.
00:50:00But, oh God, I want this so bad.
00:50:06Clear the desk.
00:50:16Pants off.
00:50:17Now.
00:50:19Yes, ma'am.
00:50:28We will do better this time.
00:50:29I swear it...
00:50:30Shut up!
00:50:31Shut up!
00:50:37You better.
00:50:39This isn't negotiable.
00:50:40If you don't, someone is going to pull the plug on your son's health insurance policy.
00:50:56Did I tire you out?
00:50:59You have a surprising amount of energy for an older guy.
00:51:04What's the plan for today?
00:51:06Aside from planting the deck.
00:51:32You have a softЬ安.
00:51:34You have to fill your constructs.
00:51:35Oh, God.
00:51:37You have to be ready.
00:51:38What so is this?
00:51:38You have to be aware of my life.
00:51:38You have to feed yours pensar on your own car.
00:51:38And you have to be very proud.
00:51:39The same strategy as before should suffice.
00:51:43These guys are idiots, remember?
00:51:48Change of plans.
00:51:50This time, your bitch is gonna play too.
00:52:02Why do you look so concerned?
00:52:06Planning on cheating?
00:52:11Of course not.
00:52:13It would be very unwise to cheat in this room.
00:52:16Besides these two, the head enforcer monitors it constantly from his high tower.
00:52:28We wouldn't want you to get caught.
00:52:31Not even Briar's precious phantom ace could breathe wrong in here without Demian seeing it.
00:52:41Look at you, always so willing to give a helping hand.
00:52:45Hilarious!
00:52:46Be warned, this place will kill you if you're caught as the lying rat we all know you are.
00:52:52It's okay.
00:52:54You can sit down.
00:52:55What are we gonna do? I can't play on hiding cards, remember? You do not want to know how I
00:52:57got them past security.
00:52:58Just stay calm. Why do you have cards on you?
00:53:00You told me to. You said it's the same plan as before.
00:53:02You really need to calm down. Your sweating is gonna give us away.
00:53:04How can I calm down? We're going to get caught.
00:53:10How can I calm down?
00:53:14Hey, lovebirds. Shall we play?
00:53:20Why are you staring at me?
00:53:22Did you come back to rub him in my face?
00:53:24Uh-oh.
00:53:26Do I sense a history?
00:53:29Shove it!
00:53:47High card. Two pair.
00:53:49Three of a kind.
00:53:51Full house.
00:53:55Still think you're not dealing with the Phantom Ace?
00:54:00Phantom Ace! My ass! That's cheating!
00:54:03How is that possible?
00:54:05Kelvin was supposed to get the full house.
00:54:08Unless...
00:54:13That was supposed to be a king.
00:54:16Someone switched my cards.
00:54:26How the fuck did Liam win? I thought I was paying you to be my fixer!
00:54:31I'm just creating a false sense of security. Keep them guessing.
00:54:34You better be telling the truth, Regina, or it's curtains.
00:54:37Capi?
00:54:41I can't tell Kelvin or he'll kill me.
00:54:44And I can't report it without exposing my own cheating, in which case my bosses kill me.
00:54:49Ugh! I'm so fucked!
00:54:53Fuck you, Briar!
00:54:55What? What did I do?
00:54:59So, shall we keep playing?
00:55:09Of course.
00:55:14I think I'm getting the pattern. That perforation means ace.
00:55:17All I need to do is memorize the high cards, and I can move this game back to Kelvin's favor.
00:55:28If I didn't know any better, I'd think that look you're giving our dealer betrayals a partnership of some kind.
00:55:36Now you sound paranoid. 25 million.
00:55:40Get over yourself or put it all on the table.
00:55:42All right. All in. 50 million.
00:55:46I got it from selling all of Vivian's businesses.
00:55:51I'm trusting you, Regina.
00:55:56All right. Have it your way.
00:56:02This health insurance policy is worth 50 million dollars, and it's the only thing keeping my son alive.
00:56:20You're gonna regret betting that.
00:56:23What are you doing? You can't bet away your son's life!
00:56:27I don't want to.
00:56:30But if we don't win back everything we owe Red Mask, me and my son are as good as dead
00:56:34anyway.
00:56:38Do you think he's bluffing? He wouldn't really bet that, would he?
00:56:45Hustling technique number 12, remember?
00:56:49He's hoping a highly sentimental bet will throw us off our game.
00:56:53Well, I guess it's successful. I'm folding right away.
00:56:57A true gambling addict will bet anything on the false notion that they're about to win.
00:57:02Once they get the itch, they cannot help themselves. You're not responsible for what he bets.
00:57:14I can't believe I haven't noticed it before.
00:57:16What's that?
00:57:17How cold you can be.
00:57:21I'm out.
00:57:27Time for the showdown.
00:57:30Four of a kind.
00:57:35You just lost, Professor. A 10 and a 9.
00:57:50Not so fast, Kelvin. Take another look at that 9. It's actually a 6.
00:57:57A 10 and a 9.
00:58:05How?
00:58:07But I was sure that the perforation meant a 9.
00:58:10Did you just admit to knowingly playing with a marked deck?
00:58:18All right. Fun's over.
00:58:22Search everyone at the table.
00:58:32The extra set of cards.
00:58:34Give them to me.
00:58:36What?
00:58:36Now, Briar. It's the only way I can protect you.
00:58:45What are you two talking about?
00:58:48Did your boyfriend ever tell you what he did?
00:58:51Did what? What did Liam do?
00:58:54Don't listen to him, Briar. Just hand me the cards.
00:58:57Figures he never told you.
00:58:59Briar! Your boyfriend got caught cheating and your daddy took the fall!
00:59:03This asshole got your daddy killed!
00:59:05Is that true?
00:59:19That's just rich. Five hustlers in one game. It must be my lucky day.
00:59:23Cut them all!
00:59:24Please, stop! I have too much to live for!
00:59:28Let me go! I have a son! Do you want him to grow up without a dad?
00:59:33Some dad you are. You gambled away your son's life.
00:59:41Apologies for the inconvenience. You're all to be brought before Red Mask. He will be overseeing your execution.
00:59:47Listen, you're an honorable man, correct? Briar and I were only here to bring the other hustlers to justice.
00:59:54You'd say anything you could to save your life.
00:59:56You're not the genius you think you are if you believe Red Mask kills the hustlers you catch.
00:59:59Check the arrest ledges for people who look like Vivian and Kelvin. Please!
01:00:07Get him out of my sight.
01:00:11No, please! Just listen!
01:00:28The gang's all here, huh?
01:00:31So you're Red Mask. Leader of the Casino Crime Syndicate.
01:00:37Did my shoes give it away? You've all been caught cheating at Sin and Cypher.
01:00:43How do you plead?
01:00:45Plead?
01:00:46For your lives. Don't worry. You wouldn't be the first.
01:00:51You're not gonna kill us.
01:00:53Oh?
01:00:55That's not your style.
01:00:57With the way these two hustle, there's no way they haven't been caught before.
01:01:01That's your hustle.
01:01:04You extort people's debts for your own gain, forcing the cheaters you catch to hustle at rival casinos,
01:01:10leaving regular people to seek out Sin and Cypher, a place where hustling is near impossible.
01:01:19You seem to know everything about me.
01:01:21Everything except your identity.
01:01:23You don't recognize me from my voice?
01:01:25You don't recognize me from my voice? Well then, allow me to elacicate you.
01:01:27This one is not your story.
01:01:39My name is Silas Graves.
01:01:42I'm the one who killed your professor, remember?
01:01:47He killed my dad?
01:01:54I'm gonna kill you!
01:01:57No, you won't. I'm the one with the gun, remember?
01:02:00We're gonna play a little game today.
01:02:03You see, it's not every day that I have so many hustlers in my midst.
01:02:08I've been using X here to train my team of hustlers for a few years now,
01:02:11but he's slowing down.
01:02:13One of you is going to replace him.
01:02:15He wants a replacement for X.
01:02:17He has no idea who's standing in front of him.
01:02:20And if we refuse?
01:02:27Does that answer your question?
01:02:38What the hell?
01:02:39Sir, we found something among the evidence.
01:02:44What's this?
01:02:46Red Mask isn't killing hustlers, he's training them.
01:02:49You know how to stop it.
01:02:53No!
01:02:57If this is true, I have to stop it.
01:03:04Come on.
01:03:05We're gonna play Who's the Best Hustler.
01:03:07If you don't play, you all die.
01:03:09Regina, you can be the dealer, since we all know you don't stand a chance either way.
01:03:14No!
01:03:14I'm not playing another stupid game for you.
01:03:17You're a monster!
01:03:20This isn't up for debate, Kelvy.
01:03:22You've controlled me for far too long.
01:03:25Just get it over with.
01:03:27No!
01:03:31Careful what you wish for.
01:03:33Please.
01:03:34You need to stay alive.
01:03:36For your son.
01:03:39Elder!
01:03:43You bastard!
01:03:45Play all your necks.
01:03:46Spare them.
01:03:47I'm the world's greatest hustler.
01:03:50Give me a chance to face your champion alone.
01:03:53You're not even the best hustler in this room.
01:03:56Liam?
01:03:57My name is Liam Stone, but the gambling underworld knew me as the Phantom Ace.
01:04:16You?
01:04:17The Phantom Ace?
01:04:19That ghost vanished years ago.
01:04:21But sure, why not?
01:04:23Sounds fun.
01:04:24Regina, go ahead and deal while I decide what to do with you.
01:04:26This is so fucked!
01:04:30It's gonna be okay, Regina.
01:04:38You're his prisoner too, correct?
01:04:42How long?
01:04:45Take these golden sets.
01:04:47You'll be competing against each other in a hustler's duel.
01:04:51If I can visibly tell you're cheating, I'll off you myself.
01:04:54What are we betting?
01:04:56Well, you wanted to negotiate for their lives, right?
01:04:59That makes them a kind of currency.
01:05:14Take these to start.
01:05:16Let's say these chuckle fucks are worth ten chips each.
01:05:19Anytime you want to cash out for more, I'll shoot one of them so you can keep on playing.
01:05:28I guess then I have one last hustling technique left to try.
01:05:32And what is that?
01:05:44Don't lose.
01:05:48The Phantom Ace I heard about never begged for anyone's life.
01:05:52First time for everything.
01:06:02There's a lot riding on this, but I can't get anything on this guy.
01:06:06Every inch of his skin is covered.
01:06:09So, X, that's what people call you, right?
01:06:12I know you can nod, but can you speak?
01:06:14What are you doing?
01:06:15I know it's life or death, but can I not make conversation?
01:06:19I can speak.
01:06:21Shit.
01:06:21Voice modulator.
01:06:24If the Phantom Acel knows what's good for him, he'll stop speaking and play.
01:06:27Fine.
01:06:28Place your bet.
01:06:34Time for the showdown.
01:06:38Flush.
01:06:38Full house.
01:06:42Full house wins.
01:06:49Two chips left.
01:06:50Enough for a single round.
01:06:54Better start thinking about who here you're going to cash in, Ace.
01:06:58It hasn't come to that yet.
01:07:01It's about to.
01:07:05It's barely moved at all.
01:07:07Besides, what's that he's doing with his wrist?
01:07:10I recognize that move.
01:07:12But that's impossible.
01:07:20What the hell?
01:07:21Hustling technique number eight.
01:07:23Flick switch.
01:07:24See how it works?
01:07:28Now, you try.
01:07:37Impressive.
01:07:38I've never met anyone who can match my speed.
01:07:42Three of a kind.
01:07:43Straight.
01:07:44If I had to guess, I'd say you're losing on purpose.
01:07:47Time to choose.
01:07:48Should I blow the brains off the pirate or Miss Furky here?
01:07:53Neither.
01:07:54Briar Thorn goes first.
01:07:57Whatever you say.
01:08:05Stop.
01:08:06You can't.
01:08:06Dad?
01:08:17Oh, God.
01:08:19Spoilers.
01:08:19I had this whole speech prepared about how I spared your life and used you as a pawn in
01:08:23my rise from lowly enforcer to mob boss.
01:08:26Why'd you have to go and ruin it, huh?
01:08:27Liam is trying to trick you.
01:08:29He's not actually the world's greatest hustler.
01:08:32She is.
01:08:33The hell are you talking about?
01:08:34He's right.
01:08:35There's a better hustler here than me.
01:08:37It's Briar.
01:08:38Wait a minute.
01:08:39Who are you again?
01:08:43Should I tell him or should you?
01:08:46Briar is my daughter.
01:08:50What the fuck?
01:08:52You were right to spoil your identity.
01:08:54This is the better twist.
01:08:56Let her play and cash me in.
01:08:58Instead, she'll prove she's the better replacement for Alden.
01:09:01Oh, that's sweet.
01:09:02You love her or something?
01:09:03You trying to hustle my heartstrings right now?
01:09:05I'm not letting her play.
01:09:06She's his daughter.
01:09:07He's going to let her win.
01:09:09He could promise not to.
01:09:11What is this?
01:09:12Are you doing a bit?
01:09:15Wasting a bit of your time.
01:09:17Time for what?
01:09:21Everyone on the ground, now!
01:09:38Let's go!
01:09:58That's a phantom ace throw.
01:10:04What the hell was that?
01:10:21Nice fucking try.
01:10:25I'm sorry, Jeremy.
01:10:52I've loved you since the moment we met.
01:10:55When all this is over, I'm going to marry you.
01:10:58Professor.
01:10:59Are you sure I approve?
01:11:02You don't get a vote.
01:11:03You were dead to me two minutes ago.
01:11:05I approve.
01:11:07And were you ever going to tell me your real identity?
01:11:12I'm glad you made it.
01:11:13I should shoot you all where you stand.
01:11:17But there's been enough death today.
01:11:23Dad, why didn't you let me know you were alive?
01:11:25I wanted to protect you from this life.
01:11:28I've thought about you every day.
01:11:31We all need to leave.
01:11:32Silas' men will be on their way.
01:11:34There's a service tunnel behind that bookcase.
01:11:36Old pneumatic maintenance route.
01:11:38It leads under the casino.
01:11:39Can you give me a hand?
01:11:49Hold on a second.
01:11:50Do I know you?
01:11:53I'm not sure.
01:11:54You do look familiar.
01:11:55How long have you been hustling?
01:11:57I'm sorry.
01:11:58We don't have a lot of time.
01:11:59Just answer the question.
01:12:07Damien, what's going on?
01:12:08I did not watch my fin-unborn child die
01:12:10just to allow that monster to live.
01:12:12He's the hustler that killed my wife!
01:12:17You don't have to do this, Damien.
01:12:19Like you said, there's been far too much death today already.
01:12:23This man ruined my life!
01:12:26I remember you.
01:12:27You're the husband of the heiress I hustled years ago.
01:12:31I won't make an excuse.
01:12:32I am not a perfect man.
01:12:34I had an itch that just needed to be scratched.
01:12:37Every gambler gets the itch eventually.
01:12:39Go ahead, shoot me, then let them go.
01:12:41Dad, no!
01:12:42The person I loved most in the world
01:12:45jumped to her death due to your actions.
01:12:47I know!
01:12:48But it's between you and she was my soul.
01:12:50And now I'm going to take the one you love.
01:12:54Briar!
01:12:54Oh shit, I'm dead.
01:12:59No, dad!
01:13:05Run, Briar.
01:13:06Guys.
01:13:08Take her and go!
01:13:10No!
01:13:11Please, you can't die.
01:13:13I just got you back.
01:13:14You can't leave me again.
01:13:16You can't...
01:13:16My greatest regret was never getting to see you grow up.
01:13:20Now, I have.
01:13:26Guys, we gotta go!
01:13:48Go out the back.
01:13:49I can hold them off.
01:13:51You heard the old man.
01:13:53You guys get out of here!
01:13:57Briar, we need to run.
01:13:59My dad!
01:14:01Kill me!
01:14:05Keep my boys safe.
01:14:11Guess the luck was on my side.
01:14:24Calvin.
01:14:27We have to go!
01:14:33No!
01:14:35No!
01:14:36No!
01:14:41It was nice knowing you.
01:14:44Regina, please!
01:14:46We can pry it open together.
01:14:52I'm sorry!
01:14:54I'm sorry!
01:14:57Regina!
01:14:58Come back!
01:15:00This type of shit is why we didn't work!
01:15:04Briar!
01:15:10No funny business.
01:15:12The bitch against the wall.
01:15:13I'll get to you in a bit.
01:15:15Masterful gambit.
01:15:16Getting my lost guy involved.
01:15:18It's too bad you both gotta die now.
01:15:20We could have made a lot of money together.
01:15:22You've lost Silas.
01:15:23Regina knows who you are and she got out.
01:15:25You think that drugged out Lessie is gonna turn me in?
01:15:28I am going to revel in the satisfaction of wiping you both off God's green earth.
01:15:33All that Phantom Ace talk.
01:15:35All those pretty little tricks.
01:15:36And here you are.
01:15:37Trapped behind my gate.
01:15:38With a gun to your head.
01:15:51You came back for us.
01:15:53Why?
01:15:54I thought about leaving.
01:15:55But I realized if you died, I'd never get my favorite t-shirt back.
01:16:10I'm so sorry about your dad, Briar.
01:16:12I just found out he was alive.
01:16:15And now he's gone again.
01:16:20We have to get rid of it.
01:16:22What?
01:16:22The money.
01:16:23Everything we won.
01:16:25It's blood money.
01:16:26We shouldn't keep it.
01:16:28I mean it.
01:16:29Everyone we met had their lives ruined by hustlers.
01:16:32I know.
01:16:34I felt the same way when Alden.
01:16:37Back when I thought that he...
01:16:41Calvin.
01:16:42Calvin had a son.
01:16:46Keep my boy safe.
01:16:48That's who he wanted us to protect.
01:16:53An anonymous benefactor has been paying for his care for the past year or so.
01:16:57Is there a cure?
01:16:59Yes.
01:16:59But it's very experimental, expensive, and surely not covered by his insurance.
01:17:04Do it.
01:17:06Whatever the cost.
01:17:15What's going on?
01:17:16Dad?
01:17:17Where's my dad?
01:17:18Look at me, honey.
01:17:19You're going to be okay, but you've been asleep for a very long time.
01:17:23What do you mean he has no other family?
01:17:24Where's his mom?
01:17:25She died in the same accident that resulted in Jeremy's coma, and he has no living relatives
01:17:29that agreed to take him in.
01:17:30So he's got nowhere to go?
01:17:32Since he's awake now, we can send him to an orphanage upstate.
01:17:34It's not ideal, but...
01:17:36What if someone were to adopt him?
01:17:38Brea.
01:17:44This is nice.
01:17:46Yeah.
01:17:46Our first family vacation.
01:17:48Boy, did I need one.
01:17:50Time for the showdown.
01:17:53Do you see the guy on the left?
01:17:59Hustlers.
01:18:00I'm glad we left that life behind us.
01:18:01I wish that type of thing didn't exist.
01:18:03Yeah.
01:18:03Ooh, the gift shop.
01:18:05I want to go.
01:18:05Can I go, Brea?
01:18:06Sure, honey.
01:18:07Just a sec.
01:18:07You don't miss it, do you?
01:18:08I mean, you were the Phantom Ace.
01:18:10The best.
01:18:11Of course not.
01:18:12Certainly not after everything.
01:18:15Jeremy!
01:18:16I can't be that stupid.
01:18:18I'm out.
01:18:19I'm done.
01:18:20The Phantom Ace is officially retired.
01:18:22I had an itch that just needed to be scratched.
01:18:25Every gambler gets the itch eventually.
01:18:32Ah, fuck it.
01:18:33Ah, fuck it.
01:18:33Deal me in.
01:18:34Deal me in.
01:18:34Shut up.
01:18:35Eh, itch.
01:18:36Itch.
01:18:37Oh, yeah.
01:18:37cetera.
