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, winners are crowned, and fools lose everything.
00:00:40Oh, you ask about me?
00:00:42I never lose.
00:00:44I am Liam, the Phantom Ace, the greatest hustler alive.
00:00:49Hey!
00:00:50Liam's beating!
00:00:53Hustlers lose a hand!
00:00:58Wait!
00:01:00Wait!
00:01:00You have to search me!
00:01:02You have to search me first!
00:01:09What's going on here?
00:01:11The dealer found a marked card.
00:01:13Someone was mixing them into the deck.
00:01:15The rest of us were searched already.
00:01:16That only leaves him.
00:01:22You picked the wrong house, Hotshot.
00:01:25New blood like you doesn't last five minutes in a place like this.
00:01:34Unless he thinks he's the Phantom Ace.
00:01:36Is he the Phantom Ace?
00:01:37The Phantom Ace?
00:01:39The Phantom Ace?
00:01:40Please.
00:01:41The masked Phantom Ace mastered all 28 tricks, and vanished from the gambling underworld years ago.
00:01:48Exactly.
00:01:49This little punk couldn't palm a dinner roll without getting caught.
00:01:54Search him anyway.
00:01:56Let's see what this rookie's hiding.
00:02:00Jesus, 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?
00:02:08Speak up!
00:02:09I don't know him.
00:02:11But I played this table earlier.
00:02:13If you're gonna search him, search me as well.
00:02:35Satisfied?
00:02:37Pants two!
00:02:40Hold it.
00:02:42I found something.
00:02:48Listen, I'm a master hustler.

00:02:54Master hustler, huh?
00:02:56Is 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.
00:03:26Even after all this time, I don't know who Alden wanted me to keep safe.

00:03:36I'm coming.
00:03:39I'm coming.

00:13:52but 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
00:14:13they think i think i'm not paying attention
00:14:16girlfriend

00:18:11bets with sentimental value can sometimes guilt the other players into folding early
00:18:18or if you're playing other hustlers
00:18:29professor liam i don't know what to say
00:18:33it throws them off their game
00:18:38that was part of the lesson i 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 this man is just humiliating his fiancee in public
00:19:03exactly no legend needs a woman's tears to win a hand
00:19:07sorry but a ring how much could that possibly be worth
00:19:10been in my family 10 generations
00:19:13my grandmother smuggled it out of germany while fleeing the nazis
00:19:23looks authentic worth at least 2.2 million
00:19:37he's betting away his grandmother's holocaust ring what kind of monster is he he's a stupid one
00:19:42that's for sure we're going to be so rich
00:20:00those aces are interesting care to go fish
00:20:20time for the showdown
00:20:23time for the showdown
00:20:35you sure about that not even the phantom ace can beat four aces with that board
00:20:45show the cards
00:20:57no way he has a two that would be a one in a million chance
00:21:22please
00:21:23please i'm innocent this is just an unfortunate misunderstanding i don't know where that deck of
00:21:27cards came from it's not even mine you were caught cheating at sin and cypher casino
00:21:32a casino with a steep punishment for hustling
00:21:37please forgive me i'm too young and pretty to die
00:21:41enough viviana i have no need of seeing you dead your boutiques on the other hand do spark interest
00:21:49of course they're yours anything you want just don't kill me
00:21:54why would i do that i have another use for you
00:22:15straight flush beats four aces the pot is yours

00:22:59be for real kelvin i can feel it in my bones he walked us into that hand
00:23:03so what you think briar was right no don't be stupid the phantom ackle would never show his face
00:23:10then who is he a hustler and 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 quit while you're ahead exactly gambling changes a person's brain chemistry
00:23:44they think a win is right around the corner so they bet anything
00:23:50they bet anything and everything if that's true that means we'll have an easier time cleaning house
00:24:00you'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 keep my girls safe
00:24:21something like that
00:24:28nah i'd rather not i've taken enough of your assets for the day
00:24:33you can't quit don't you know that's rude get a chance to win some back what you win one
00:24:39impossible hand and run some phantom ace you are the real phantom ace never feared a table
00:24:5016 that's the number of employees that will be jobless if you liquidate my business what will i tell

00:25:46keep my girls safe i'll do it i'll take the deal i'll keep playing there he is briar's masked miracle
00:26:02man careful vivian keep saying it and you might start believing it nobody believes it then you've got
00:26:07nothing to worry about i can't believe they were dumb enough to fall for my bait
00:26:23shit that was supposed to be an ace it's so hard to tell what's coming out next give me the
00:26:30card
00:26:30hustlers perforate the edges of a golden set with the subtlest abnormalities
00:26:39feel the bumps yeah it's subtle those bumps are a language that one's a king
00:26:48and this one's an ace
00:26:51a good hustler learns to communicate on multiple levels
00:27:04the game begins anew don't expect better luck this time you playing too or are you just here for
00:27:10moral support i played last time yeah yeah but you quietly folded right before things got hot
00:27:16speaking of that why your first wife left the fuck you just say
00:27:23i guess the problem wasn't passion what the hell viv let me at him he's trying to bait me to
00:27:29make
00:27:29a mistake let him think he's playing you i'll sit back this time to keep an eye out
00:27:34be careful what you wish for something tells me your luck has run out
00:27:51so
00:27:58he spent this whole game just staring at his cards
00:28:04what's his secret
00:28:23does that mean they switched hands you're getting better at this thanks
00:28:29professor what happens if they catch on to our strategy they're hustlers they're gonna realize
00:28:34they're being played they might but that's just when the fun begins
00:28:40she's been his eyes all along
00:28:43it's the girl she's his eyes his work wife she's been tapping his shoulder to feed him tips from where
00:28:49she's standing i think she can see our cards but how does he come up with a winning hand every
00:28:53time
00:28:54i'm not sure he's barely moved could it be he's moving too fast to see with the naked eye only
00:28:59the
00:28:59phantom can pull something like this off i'm telling you no not the ace but i think we're dealing with
00:29:05a
00:29:05master hustler
00:29:06shit but the cards have to be on him right all we need to do now is force a search
00:29:18four million go ahead and try
00:29:25liam stone i'm on to you
00:29:37i'm out what about you still in
00:29:43what's the interest on taking out a loan to keep playing you can't
00:29:50the casino owner wants people to enjoy themselves if you pay it off the same day it's zero interest
00:29:55and in 24 hours 25 and then 10 for every additional day the debt is outstanding
00:30:01oh a very generous deal all right four million dollar loan
00:30:12he's definitely cheating he signed that contract without any hesitation at all
00:30:18either he's suicidal or he already knows the cards all right time for the showdown
00:30:33four of a kind thanks to viviana swapping a card with me the odds of a player getting four of
00:30:39a kind
00:30:39are one in about four thousand hands the chance of two players getting four of a kind round is one
00:30:44in 2.7 million if he beats this too no not even the phantom acel could be that clean
00:30:55i've got it now
00:31:03liam stone i accuse you of planting cards no one beats four of a kind twice without a plant
00:31:10not you not even the phantom acel all right punk let's see how smug you look with only one hand
00:31:25i can do it myself creep you better the rules of the rusty cleaver casino state that anyone accused
00:31:30of cheating must be stripped of their clothes to confirm they're not hiding cards we'll get to the
00:31:34bottom of this if i find any evidence of cheating the culprit will lose a hand and the aggrieved will
00:31:39recoup all their losses for the day your shirt please
00:32:03wait where have i seen that tattoo before is he that little punk from six years ago
00:32:13nothing in his shirt make sure he drops his trousers too i want to see everything he's hiding careful
00:32:20about hollow accusations vivian dealer what's the punishment for false claims the accuser must forfeit
00:32:26three fingers
00:32:39he had nothing in his shirt if there's nothing in his pants i'm cooked wait why does he always hand
00:32:46his
00:32:46clothes to her first you can't search her why not something to hide i didn't even touch the table
00:33:12what do you think the lady doth protest too much oh i think she does
00:33:21in front of all these people cheating disputes are done out in the open for transparency's sake
00:33:28fuck your transparency what happened to that sweet little cry baby you were 10 seconds ago i'll make you cry
00:33:34baby failure to comply will be taken as admission fine fine i'll do it get off me
00:33:50come on everything off you two go ahead and give us a show let's see if our faux phantom ace
00:33:57has anything
00:33:57come on everything up his sleeve or under her yeah yeah it's huge i know are we done here
00:34:28you want us to shed our skin too no evidence is found you're free to leave
00:34:38that was thorough and still nothing at a certain point doesn't luck start looking like skill
00:34:47don't flatter yourself why not you keep bringing up the phantom ace why can't i be him because the
00:34:53phantom ace was a ghost in a black mask you're a half-naked statistics professor with a rabbit tattoo
00:35:00and yet i'm the one leaving with your money you can't do this i need all my fingers please
00:35:12most of my cards were already gone after the last round the rest i hid right under their nose
00:35:18bouncing their cards into the brass run-out rail beneath the lip of the table as they continue

00:40:12i've had it since i was a child
00:40:17then if you do manage to sneak something past them
00:40:21every dealer in that joint uses a handcrafted custom set of cards totally unique to them making
00:40:25it impossible to replicate
00:40:33maybe for someone else
00:40:44that'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 oh
00:40:55fuck yeah
00:41:06see anything i'm not even sure what i'm looking for here
00:41:09if kelvin chose this place to cheat it means he has a mechanic
00:41:15mechanic
00:41:17hustling technique 13

00:45:03it's the enforcers
00:45:06remember sin and cypher doesn't play around
00:45:10it's not their hand they're after if they catch you
00:45:17here
00:45:17they come for your throat

00:50:16put that
00:50:17now
00:50:19yes ma'am
00:50:28We will do better this time. I swear it...
00:50:31SHUT UP! SHUT UP!
00:50:37You better. This isn't negotiable.
00:50:41If you don't, someone is going to pull the plug on your son's health insurance policy.
00:50:55SHUT UP!
00:50:56Did I tire you out?
00:50:59You have a surprising amount of energy for an older guy.
00:51:05What's the plan for today?
00:51:07Aside from planting the deck...
00:51:40The same strategy as before should suffice. These guys are idiots, remember?
00:51:49Change of plans. This time, your bitch is gonna play too.
00:51:53SHUT UP!
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.
00:52:32Not even Briar's precious Phantom Ace could breathe wrong in here without Demian seeing it.
00:52:42Look at you. Always so willing to give a helping hand.
00:52:46Hilarious! Be warned, this place will kill you if you're caught as the lying rat we all know you are.
00:52:52It's okay. You 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 eternity.
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 get us away.
00:53:04How can I calm down? We're going to get caught.
00:53:15Hey lovebirds. Shall we play?
00:53:21Why are you staring at me?
00:53:22Did you come back to rub him in my face?
00:53:25Uh oh. Do I sense a history?
00:53:30SHOVE IT!
00:53:48High card. Two pair.
00:53:50Three 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!
00:54:04How is that possible? Kelvin was supposed to get the full house. Unless...
00:54:14That was supposed to be a king. Someone 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.
00:54:50Ugh! I'm so fucked!
00:54:54Fuck you Briar!
00:54:55What? What did I do?
00:55:00So, shall we keep playing?
00:55:09Of course.
00:55:14I think I'm getting the pattern. That perforation means ace.
00:55:18All 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.
00:55:37Now you sound paranoid. 25 million!
00:55:40Get over yourself or put it all on the table.
00:55:43Alright.
00:55:44All in. 50 million.
00:55:47I got it from selling all of Vivian's businesses.
00:55:51I'm trusting you Regina.
00:55:56Alright.
00:55:58Have 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.
00:56:24What are you doing? You can't bet away your son's life!
00:56:27I don't want to.
00:56:31But 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?
00:56:46Hustling technique number 12, remember?
00:56:49He's hoping a highly sentimental bet will throw us off our game.
00:56:54Well I guess it's successful. I'm folding right away.
00:56:58A true gambling addict will bet anything on the false notion that they're about to win.
00:57:03Once they get the itch, they cannot help themselves.
00:57:06You're not responsible for what he bets.
00:57:14I can't believe I haven't noticed it before.
00:57:17What's that?
00:57:18How cold you can be.
00:57:21I'm out.
00:57:28Time for the showdown.
00:57:30Four of a kind.
00:57:35You just lost, Professor. A ten. And a nine.
00:57:50Not so fast, Kelvin. Take another look at that nine. It's actually a six.
00:58:06How?
00:58:07But I was sure that the perforation meant a nine.
00:58:10Did you just admit to knowingly playing with a marked deck?
00:58:18Alright. Fun's over.
00:58:23Search everyone at the table.
00:58:32The extra set of cards.
00:58:35Give them to me.
00:58:36A what?
00:58:37Now, Briar. It's the only way I can protect you.
00:58:45What are you two talking about?
00:58:49Did your boyfriend ever tell you what he did?
00:58:52Did 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!
00:59:06Is that true?
00:59:19That's just rich. Five hustlers in one game. It must be my lucky day.
00:59:23Cut them all!
00:59:25Please! Stop!
00:59:26I have too much to live for!
00:59:29Let me go! I have a son!
00:59:31Do you want him to grow up without a dad?
00:59:33Some dad you are.
00:59:35You gambled away your son's life.
00:59:42Apologies for the inconvenience.
00:59:44You're all to be brought before Red Mask.
00:59:46He will be overseeing your execution.
00:59:48Listen. You're an honorable man, correct?
00:59:51Briar 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.
01:00:00Check 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!
01:00:29The 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?
01:00:39You've all been caught cheating at Sin and Cypher.
01:00:43How do you plead?
01:00:45Plead?
01:00:46For your lives.
01:00:47Don't worry. You wouldn't be the first.
01:00:51You're not gonna kill us.
01:00:53Who?
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.
01:01:02That's your hustle.
01:01:04You extort people's debts for your own gain.
01:01:07Forcing the cheaters you catch to hustle at rival casinos.
01:01:11Leaving regular people to seek out Sin and Cypher, a place where hustling is near impossible.
01:01:19You seem to know everything about me.
01:01:22Everything except your identity.
01:01:24You don't recognize me from my voice?
01:01:25Well then allow me to elacicate you.
01:01:39My name is Silas Graves.
01:01:42I'm the one who killed your professor, remember?
01:01:48He killed my dad?
01:01:54I'm gonna kill you!
01:01:55I'm gonna kill you!
01:01:57No you won't.
01:01:58I'm the one with the gun, remember?
01:02:01We'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, but 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?
01:02:40Sir, we found something among the evidence.
01:02:44What's this?
01:02:45Red Mask isn't killing hustlers, he's training them.
01:02:50You know how to stop it.
01:02:54No!
01:02:57If this is true, I have to stop it.
01:03:04Come on, we're gonna play who's the best hustler. If you don't play, you all die. Regina, you can be
01:03:11the dealer since we all know you don't stand a chance either way.
01:03:14No! I'm not playing another stupid game for you!
01:03:17You're a monster!
01:03:20This isn't up for debate, Kelvi.
01:03:23You've controlled me for far too long. Just get it over with.
01:03:28No!
01:03:32Careful what you wish for.
01:03:33Please, you need to stay alive. For your son.
01:03:39Elder!
01:03:43You bastard!
01:03:45Play all your necks.
01:03:46Spare them!
01:03:48I'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.
01:04:17You! Ha ha ha! The Phantom Ace!
01:04:20That ghost vanished years ago. But sure, why not? Sounds fun.
01:04:24Regina, go ahead and deal while I decide what to do with you.
01:04:27He's so fucked!
01:04:30It's gonna be okay, Regina.
01:04:39You're his prisoner too, correct?
01:04:42How long?
01:04:46Take these golden sets.
01:04:48You'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.
01:04:55What 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.
01:06:03There's a lot riding on this, but I can't get anything on this guy.
01:06:06Every inch of his skin is covered.
01:06:10So, X, that's what people call you, right? I 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, voice modulator.
01:06:24If the Phantom Acel knows what's good for him, he'll stop speaking and play.
01:06:27Fine, place your bet.
01:06:34Time for the showdown.
01:06:38Flush.
01:06:39Full house.
01:06:42Full house wins.
01:06:49Two chips left, enough for a single round.
01:06:54Better start thinking about who here you're gonna cash in, Ace.
01:06:58It hasn't come to that yet.
01:07:01It's about to.
01:07:05He's barely moved at all.
01:07:07Besides, what's that he's doing with his wrist?
01:07:11I recognize that move.
01:07:13But that's impossible.
01:07:20What the hell?
01:07:22Hustling technique number eight, flick switch.
01:07:24See how it works?
01:07:28Now, you try.
01:07:37Impressive.
01:07:39I've never met anyone who can match my speed.
01:07:42Three of a kind.
01:07:44Straight.
01:07:45If 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.
01:07:54Briarthorn goes first.
01:07:57Whatever you say.
01:08:05Stop.
01:08:06You can't.
01:08:07Dad?
01:08:15What?
01:08:18Oh, God.
01:08:19Spoilers.
01:08:20I had this whole speech prepared about how I spared your life and used you as a pawn in my
01:08:23rise from lowly enforcer to mob boss.
01:08:26Why'd you have to go and ruin it, huh?
01:08:28Liam 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.
01:08:39Wait a minute.
01:08:39Who are you again?
01:08:44Should I tell him or should you?
01:08:47Briarthorn is my daughter.
01:08:51What 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.
01:09:07She's his daughter.
01:09:08He's gonna let her win.
01:09:10He could promise not to.
01:09:11What is this?
01:09:13Are you doing a bit?
01:09:15Wasting a bit of your time.
01:09:18Time for what?
01:09:21Everyone on the ground, now!
01:09:38Let 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.
01:10:53I've loved you since the moment you met.
01:10:55When all this is over, I'm gonna marry you.
01:10:58Professor.
01:10:59Are you sure I approve?
01:11:02You don't get a vote.
01:11:04You 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.
01:11:14I 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?
01:11:26I wanted to protect you from this life.
01:11:28I've thought about you every day.
01:11:31We all need to leave.
01:11:33Silas' men will be on their way.
01:11:35There's a service tunnel behind that bookcase.
01:11:37Old pneumatic maintenance route.
01:11:38It leads under the casino.
01:11:40Can you give me a hand?
01:11:49Hold on a second.
01:11:51Do I know you?
01:11:53I'm not sure.
01:11:54You do look familiar.
01:11:56How 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.
01:12:03No!
01:12:07Damien, what's going on?
01:12:08I did not watch my unborn child die just 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!
01:12:27I remember you.
01:12:28You'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!
01:12:43The person I loved most in the world jumped to her death due to your actions.
01:12:47I know!
01:12:48But it's between you and she was my soul.
01:12:51And now I'm going to take the one you love.
01:12:54Friar!
01:12:55Oh shit, I'm dead.
01:12:58Friar!
01:13:00No!
01:13:00Dad!
01:13:05Run, Briar.
01:13:07Guys.
01:13:08Take her and go!
01:13:10No!
01:13:11Please!
01:13:12You 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.
01:13:27Guys!
01:13:28We gotta go!
01:13:48Go out the back!
01:13:49I can hold them off!
01:13:52You heard the old man!
01:13:53You guys get out of here!
01:13:58Boof
01:13:58Brier, we need to run!
01:14:00My dad!
01:14:01Kill me!
01:14:05Keep my boys safe.
01:14:11Guess the luck was on my side.
01:14:25Calvin.
01:14:28We have to go.
01:14:40It 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!
01:15:02It's why we didn't work!
01:15:04Briar!
01:15:11No 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.
01:15:21We could have made a lot of money together.
01:15:23You've lost Silas.
01:15:24Regina knows who you are and she got out.
01:15:25You think that drugged out Lessie is gonna turn me in?
01:15:29I am going to revel in the satisfaction of wiping you both off God's green earth.
01:15:34All that Phantom Ace talk.
01:15:35All those pretty little tricks.
01:15:37Here you are.
01:15:37Trapped behind my gate.
01:15:39With a gun to your head.
01:15:52You came back for us.
01:15:54Why?
01:15:55I thought about leaving, but 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?
01:16:23The money.
01:16:23Everything we won.
01:16:25It's blood money.
01:16:26We shouldn't keep it.
01:16:28I mean it.
01:16:30Everyone we met had their lives ruined by hustlers.
01:16:33I know.
01:16:34I felt the same way when Alden...
01:16:37Back when I thought that he...
01:16:41Kelvin.
01:16:42Kelvin 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.
01:16:58Is there a cure?
01:16:59Yes.
01:17:00But it's very experimental, expensive, and surely not covered by his insurance.
01:17:04Do it.
01:17:06Whatever the cost.
01:17:16What's going on?
01:17:17Dad?
01:17:17Where's my dad?
01:17:19Look at me, honey.
01:17:20You'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?
01:17:25Where's his mom?
01:17:26She 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.
01:17:31So he's got nowhere to go?
01:17:32Since he's awake now, we can send him to an orphanage upstate.
01:17:35It's not ideal, but...
01:17:36What if someone were to adopt him?
01:17:38Brea.
01:17:45This is nice.
01:17:46Yeah.
01:17:46Our first family vacation.
01:17:49Boy, did I need one.
01:17:51Time 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.
01:18:02I wish that type of thing didn't exist.
01:18:03Yeah.
01:18:04Ooh, the gift shop.
01:18:05I want to go.
01:18:06Can I go, Brea?
01:18:07Sure, honey.
01:18:07Just a sec.
01:18:08You don't miss it, do you?
01:18:09I mean, you were the Phantom Ace.
01:18:10The best.
01:18:11Of course not.
01:18:12Certainly not after everything.
01:18:15Jeremy!
01:18:17I can't be that stupid.
01:18:18I'm out.
01:18:19I'm done.
01:18:20The Phantom Ace is officially retired.
01:18:23I had an itch that just needed to be scratched.
01:18:25Every gambler gets the itch eventually.
01:18:32Ah, fuck it.
01:18:34Deal me in.
01:18:38I can't put here.
01:18:38I can't stop here.
