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! Liam's beating!
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?
00:01:11The dealer found a marked card. Someone was mixing them into the deck. The rest of us were searched already.
00:01:16That only leaves him.
00:01:22You picked the wrong house, Hotshot. New 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?
00:01:39Please. 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.
00:02:11But I played this table earlier.
00:02:14If you're gonna search him, search me as well.
00:02:17If you're gonna search him, search me as well.
00:02:34Satisfied?
00:02:37Pants two!
00:02:39Hold it.
00:02:41I found something.
00:02:47Listen, I'm a Master Hustler.
00:02:50Cards, 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?
00:02:56Is that so?
00:03:02Everyone out!
00:03:09Keep my girls safe!
00:03:13Keep my girls safe!
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.
00:03:35I'm coming.
00:03:36I'm coming!
00:03:40I'm coming!
00:03:50Professor Stone, I need your help.
00:03:55You need...
00:03:57You need a minute, or...
00:04:03Office hours are...
00:04:0710 to 12.
00:04:13You lost $2 million in a game with a $1 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?
00:04:35Tells me you tried to hustle and got hustled.
00:04:38I know that, Casino.
00:04:39Be grateful you still have two hands.
00:04:42Listen, Miss...
00:04:42Briar.
00:04:44These people stole all the money my father left me when he died,
00:04:46and now the mob is hounding me for 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.
00:05:09Well, besides the Phantom Ace.
00:05:12Who 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, you'll help me?
00:05:45This is the place where Professor Alden died.
00:05:48Where I buried the worst night of my life.
00:05:51And only I swore I'd never use again.
00:05:58You ready to take this place down?
00:06:02More than you know.
00:06:03No.
00:06:03No.
00:06:07No.
00:06:17No.
00:06:22No.
00:06:49Are you hitting on my girlfriend?
00:06:51What?
00:06:52No!
00:06:52Of course not!
00:07:03It's them!
00:07:04Those two stole my money!
00:07:12Think fast and keep your cool.
00:07:16Tell me, what's the first rule of hustling?
00:07:27A good hustler identifies their target's core weakness within moments of meeting them.
00:07:34You have to pay attention.
00:07:43There's a lot to glean in a glance.
00:07:56Quick.
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.
00:08:09Concerned for her boutique?
00:08:10Is it doing well?
00:08:11You just.
00:08:23Briar Thorn...
00:08:25Back to lose more money?
00:08:27Tell me.
00:08:28Who's your boyfriend?
00:08:37Fiance, actually.
00:08:39Oh, wow.
00:08:41Fiance.
00:08:43Careful.
00:08:45He looks good enough to steal.
00:08:52Hands off.
00:08:53So cold.
00:08:55Must be that cheap coat.
00:08:57You should drop by my boutique.
00:08:59I'm sure we could make a deal.
00:09:00So, what brings you both in today?
00:09:03You're here to beg for what you lost?
00:09:05Kelvin Slade.
00:09:06Breath stinks of cigarettes and whiskey.
00:09:08Everything he owns came from Vivienne's boutique,
00:09:10mooching off his new girlfriend since his wife left.
00:09:13That's his weak point.
00:09:17Why would I do that?
00:09:18I've got everything I need right here.
00:09:23Hey, that's my girlfriend.
00:09:24See, I'm going to win back everything you took from my briar.
00:09:27And then some.
00:09:29With what?
00:09:30That professor's salary?
00:09:31Careful.
00:09:32He's not just some professor.
00:09:34His teacher was the Phantom Ace.
00:09:42Oh, honey.
00:09:44The 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.
00:10:32You ready?
00:10:38Hey, you dropped this earlier.
00:10:42I didn't realize.
00:10:45More chips, please.
00:10:53No!
00:10:55You 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.
00:11:13I'm naturally lucky.
00:11:15Naturally lucky, of course.
00:11:17Much 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?
00:11:39Oh, to the victor goes the spoiler.
00:11:48Like I said, I'm just lucky.
00:11:56That kind of timing.
00:11:58I've only heard of one hustler who could read a table that fast.
00:12:01Oh, please.
00:12:02I'm only saying, the last man I saw read a table that clean for a black mask.
00:12:06Then maybe clean your monocall.
00:12:08This man is not the Phantom Ace.
00:12:11What the hell?
00:12:13There's no way he's the legendary Phantom Ace.
00:12:15The real Ace never showed his face.
00:12:17That's got to be luck.
00:12:19Right?
00:12:20Enough whispering.
00:12:21Let's play.
00:12:38All right.
00:12:39Let's see what I've got.
00:12:48Classic discard suit.
00:12:52Left.
00:12:54That means...
00:13:11His golden set is on his right.
00:13:14Right.
00:13:27Just as I thought, they work the table as a team.
00:13:30Vivian has a work wife.
00:13:43The 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.
00:14:08As my doling girlfriend, you can observe their plays and feed me information while they think I'm not paying attention.
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.
00:14:58Shit.
00:14:59Slipped through my fingers.
00:15:01Hold your fingers like this.
00:15:02Again?
00:15:15Who's that?
00:15:16One of the Phantom Aces tricks?
00:15:18One of the Phantom Aces tricks?
00:15:21It's a card trick.
00:15:22That cut paper in half and stabbed your chalkboard?
00:15:25A good card trick.
00:15:28The 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, the over-emotional girlfriend, over-confident sexist boyfriend thing.
00:15:51It fits the M.O. you crafted.
00:15:53Plus, I'm not into a little love tap from time to time.
00:16:00I'm getting bored.
00:16:02How 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 all right, 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 Aces would never lose control over a crying girl.
00:17:08I raised to two hundred thousand.
00:17:10If you can't meet the bet, get out.
00:17:18This is a low-stakes table.
00:17:20I don't do low-stakes.
00:17:22Boring is for the poor.
00:17:24Careful.
00:17:25You may be one of those poor soon enough.
00:17:27This is the deed to St. Clair's.
00:17:30Surely 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?
00:17:41Of 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.
00:17:51Come 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.
00:18:29Professor, Liam, I 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.
00:19:03Exactly.
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?
00:20:41Not even the Phantom Ace can beat four aces with that board.
00:20:45Show the cards!
00:20:46Show the cards!
00:20:47Show the cards!
00:20:48Show the cards!
00:20:50Show the cards!
00:20:57No way he has a two.
00:20:59That would be a one in a million chance.
00:21:22Please!
00:21:23Please!
00:21:23I'm innocent!
00:21:24This is just an unfortunate misunderstanding.
00:21:26I don't know where that deck of cards came from.

00:26:45that one's a king

00:28:35they might
00:28:36but that's just when the fun begins
00:28:40she's been his eyes all along
00:28:43it's the girl

00:28:53i'm not sure
00:28:54he's barely moved
00:28:55could 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

00:29:43what's the interest on taking out a loan to keep playing
00:29:46you can't
00:29:50the casino owner wants people to enjoy themselves
00:29:52if you pay it off the same day
00:29:54it's zero interest
00:29:55and in 24 hours
00:29:5725% and then 10% for every additional day
00:30:00the debt is outstanding
00:30:00oh 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
00:30:34thanks 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
00:30:42the chance of two players getting four of a kind round is one in 2.7 million
00:30:46if he beats this too
00:30:49no
00:30:50not even the phantom acel could be that clean
00:30:55i've got it now
00:31:00cheater
00:31:03liam 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
00:31:13all 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
00:31:31must be stripped of their clothes to confirm they're not hiding cards
00:31:34we'll get to the bottom of this
00:31:35if i find any evidence of cheating
00:31:37the culprit will lose a hand
00:31:38and the aggrieved will recoup all their losses for the day
00:31:41your shirt please
00:32:03wait where have i seen that tattoo before
00:32:06is he that little punk from six years ago

00:32:20careful about hollow accusations vivian
00:32:22dealer

00:33:11what do you think
00:33:13the lady doth protest too much
00:33:16oh i think she does
00:33:21in front of all these people
00:33:23cheating disputes
00:33:24are done out in the open
00:33:26for 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 admission
00:33:40fine fine fine i'll do it

00:33:52everything 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 it's huge i know are we done here
00:34:28You want us to shed our skin, too?
00:34:31No evidence is found.
00:34:32You're free to leave.
00:34:38That was thorough, and 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.
00:34:52Why can't I be him?
00:34:53Because the Phantom Ace was a ghost in a black mask.
00:34:55Listen, you're a half-naked statistics professor with a rabbit tattoo.
00:35:00And yet, I'm the one leaving with your money.
00:35:03You can't do this!
00:35:04I need all my fingers!
00:35:05Please!
00:35:12Most of my cards were already gone after the last round.
00:35:15The rest I hid right under their nose,
00:35:17bouncing their cards into the brass run-out rail beneath the lip of the table
00:35:21as they continued playing with my cards.
00:35:23None the wiser.
00:35:31Until the only cheat cards I had left on me
00:35:36were in my hand.
00:35:38I don't know how you did it,
00:35:39but I'm gonna prove you're cheating, scum!
00:35:42You're dead meat!
00:35:44If you want to find evidence of cheating,
00:35:48check their side of the table.
00:35:51What?
00:35:59Shit!
00:36:00Shit!
00:36:00We're getting our hands cut off for sure!
00:36:18You did it.
00:36:19Perfect throw.
00:36:21You're ready now.
00:36:22Tomorrow we get your revenge.
00:36:27What if they get caught cheating?
00:36:29You feeling bad for the people who robbed you?
00:36:35Elden!
00:36:42Sometimes, when a person gets the itch bad enough,
00:36:45pain 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 by then it's too late

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 knock
00:39:41before you can get in
00:39:43they scan you from head to toe for oddity
00:39:47nothing gets past them
00:39:50oh and before we go any further

00:40:10it'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
00:40:24totally unique to them making it 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
00:40:53you want me to what

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
00:54:31i'm just creating a false sense of security keep them guessing you better be telling the truth
00:54:35regina or its curtains capi
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

00:54:55what 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 get over yourself or put it all on the table all right all in 50 million

00:56:31but if we don't win back everything we owe red mask me and my son are as good as dead

00:56:46hustling 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 you're not responsible for what he bets
00:57:14i can't believe i haven't noticed it before

01:01:54I'm gonna kill you!
01:01:57No, you won't. I'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.
01:02:13No. One of you is going to replace him.
01:02:15He wants a replacement for X. He 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?
01:02:46Red 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.
01:03:07If you don't play, you all die.
01:03:10Regina, you can be the 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, Kelvy.
01:03:23You've controlled me for far too long.
01:03:25Just 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.
01:03:59But the gambling underworld knew me as the Phantom Ace.
01:04:17You!
01:04:18The Phantom Ace!
01:04:19That ghost vanished years ago.
01:04:22But sure, why not? Sounds fun.
01:04:24Regina, go ahead and deal while I decide what to do with you.
01:04:27This is 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?
01:05:48The 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.
01:06:09So, 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, voice modulator.
01:06:24If the Phantom Acel knows what's good for him, he'll stop speaking and play.
01:06:28Fine, 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 going to 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.
01:07:23Flick switch.
01:07:24See how it works?
01:07:29Now, 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.
01:07:49Should 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!
01:08:07Dad?
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
01:08:23my rise 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?
01:08:46Briar 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 going to 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 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?
01:11:03You 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.
01:11:34There'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?
01:11:42Can 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.
01:12:07Damien, 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,
01:12:20there'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
01:12:45jumped to her death due to your actions.
01:12:48I know!
01:12:48But it's between you and...
01:12:49She was my soul.
01:12:51And now I'm going to take the one you love.
01:12:54Briar!
01:12:55Oh, shit.
01:12:56I'm dead.
01:13:00No, Dad!
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
01:13:18was never getting to see you grow up.
01:13:20Now, I have.
01:13:27Guys!
01:13:28We gotta go!
01:13:29No!
01:13:32No!
01:13:33No!
01:13:34No!
01:13:34No!
01:13:35No!
01:13:35No!
01:13:36No!
01:13:37No!
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!
01:13:58Briar, we need to run.
01:14:00My dad!
01:14:01Kelvin!
01:14:05Keep my boys safe.
01:14:11Guess the luck was on my side.
01:14:25Kelvin.
01:14:28We have to go!
01:14:34No!
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
01:15:02is 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've made a lot of money together.
01:15:23You've lost Silas.
01:15:24Regina knows who you are
01:15:25and she got out.
01:15:26You think that drugged out
01:15:27Lessie is gonna turn me in?
01:15:29I am going to revel in the satisfaction
01:15:31of wiping you both off God's green earth!
01:15:34All that Phantom Ace talk.
01:15:35All those pretty little tricks.
01:15:37And here 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,
01:15:56but I realized if you died
01:15:58I'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
01:16:31had 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
01:16:55has been paying for his care
01:16:56for the past year or so.
01:16:58Is there a cure?
01:16:59Yes.
01:17:00But it's very experimental, expensive
01:17:02and 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,
01:17:21but you've been asleep
01:17:22for a very long time.
01:17:23What do you mean
01:17:24he has no other family?
01:17:25Where's his mom?
01:17:26She died in the same accident
01:17:27that resulted in Jeremy's coma
01:17:28and 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,
01:17:33we can send him to an orphanage upstate.
01:17:35It's not ideal, but...
01:17:36What if someone were to adopt him?
01:17:38Briar.
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, Briar?
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.
01:18:38Oh, you're so smart.
01:18:38But I was looking for them with them.
